Bright Sword: Follow Kong's fun and build the strongest military industry

After hearing this, Brigade Commander Wang nodded in agreement and asked Chief of Staff Geng to send someone to contact the Independent Regiment by telegram to convey the latest orders.

At this time, the brigade commander's communications chief came in with a telegram:

"Brigade Commander, Chief of Staff, urgent message from the Independent Regiment Special Operations Team."

Upon hearing that it was a telegram from the special forces, Chief of Staff Geng hurriedly took it and looked at it carefully, and was immediately overjoyed.

"Brigade Commander, with the cooperation of the Second Independent Regiment, Captain Kong wiped out a squadron of the Japanese without losing a single person, and also took down three of their strongholds."

"We estimate that we will seize more than 30 light and heavy machine guns and hundreds of thousands of rounds of ammunition. Let us notify nearby troops to transport supplies. The Second Independent Regiment probably does not have enough manpower."

After hearing this, Brigade Commander Wang also said happily: "I have heard that Kong Hao from the special forces is a famous money-spending boy. No matter where he goes, he can bring great benefits. Now it seems that his reputation is well-deserved."

"In just a few days, our brigade has obtained the heavy equipment of a main force regiment. Now it's our brigade's turn to make a fortune."

"I've said it before, we should send the special forces out to conduct actual combat training in battle. Not only can we eliminate the Japanese, but we can also obtain a large amount of weapons and equipment."

"If we stay in the arsenal all day, even the best troops will become useless. It's a pity that no one listens to my advice."

After hearing this, Chief of Staff Geng rolled his eyes and said in a low voice:

"Don't let the people in the logistics department hear this, or you will be drowned in spit."

"Kong Hao, the chief consultant of the arsenal, is also extremely important. In just a few months, our own arsenal can produce bullets and firearms. This is beyond all our imagination."

"Because of the war needs on our side, the arsenal carried out an emergency material supply to our brigade, including 6.5 Mauser rifles, 20 Spanish side-opening Mauser pistols, 7.92 15mm bullets, mm bullets, and various grenades."

"This has raised the strength of our brigade to a higher level. Even if we have to fight the Japanese head-on, it won't be a big problem."

"This is all thanks to Kong Hao, otherwise there would be no such good thing."

"As the old saying goes, you can't have your cake and eat it too. Now we really want to have it both ways."

Brigade Commander Wang was amused by the Chief of Staff's words. At the same time, he also thought that this was indeed a difficult multiple-choice question. Sometimes being a jack of all trades is also a happy trouble.

In the end, the matter was left to the commander of the Third Military Sub-district, Lao Ma, to handle on his own.

He also issued the latest orders to the special operations team via telegram, asking Kong Hao to lead the team to Hexian quickly to cooperate with Li Yunlong in combat.

In the afternoon, Commander Ma of the Third Military Sub-district rushed over with the Independent 1st and 3rd Regiments and the headquarters transport team.

At this time, Captain Bai and Political Commissar Pei had already transported all the weapons and ammunition from the three strongholds to a nearby village and hid them, waiting for the commander to come and distribute them.

Captain Bai was relatively generous and only added five Czech light machine guns, one Maxim heavy machine gun, more than forty Type 38 rifles, and more than sixty Hanyang rifles to the Second Regiment, eliminating the homemade guns, swords, and spears in the original troops.

From now on, every soldier in their Independent Second Regiment is a gun-wielding person, and their strength has firmly established them as the leader in the military sub-district.

"Commander, these are the weapons and ammunition we captured in this battle. Except for some of our regiment's equipment, the rest are all in here."

After saying that, he took everyone to several houses in the village and introduced to everyone the gains from the battle.

When Captain Sun of the 1st Regiment and Captain Zheng of the 3rd Regiment saw the room full of weapons and ammunition, their eyes suddenly lit up.

"Here are 82 Type 38 rifles, 44 Hanyang rifles, 28 other brands of rifles, and 12 Turtle Box pistols;"

"There are also 25 Type 99 light machine guns, 11 Czech light machine guns, and a total of 320,000 rounds of various bullets."

After hearing these data, Commander Ma nodded continuously. This was a huge amount of weapons and ammunition, especially light machine guns, which was more than their previous three regiments combined.

"Very good. According to the orders of the brigade commander and the political commissar, our military division can keep all of these rifles and pistols. As for the light machine guns, we can keep one-third and hand in the rest. Other brother units are also short of weapons and ammunition."

"We will divide the weapons we left behind equally among the three groups. That way, no one will complain."

In fact, to be able to reach the position of military sub-district commander, one must have a very strong sense of the overall situation. If so many weapons and ammunition were all kept in the military sub-district, the strength of the troops would indeed be enhanced.

But now there are wars everywhere, and a large number of light machine guns are destroyed by the Japanese grenade launchers every day. We urgently need a large number of replenishments to ensure the continued combat effectiveness of the front-line troops.

Second-line troops like the Third Military Sub-district also carry out some minor tasks such as ambushing transport teams, so as long as their superiors have some good stuff, they will give priority to equipping the main combat troops. This is also to maximize the use of limited weapons and equipment.

There would definitely be no problem for the commanders of the first and third regiments, especially the commander of the third regiment. He was given four light machine guns at once, which meant that the number of light machine guns in their regiment increased by half. He must be overjoyed.

However, Captain Bai shook his head and said firmly, "I don't agree with the commander's allocation plan."

When these words were spoken, Captain Sun of the First Regiment and Captain Zheng of the Third Regiment were both stunned, especially Captain Zheng, who kept winking at Captain Bai.

In distributing the spoils this time, the commander was unusually fair and just. He treated the three regiments equally without favoring the first regiment. If the second regiment disagreed, then the third regiment would suffer again.

Captain Sun was also mistaken at this time, thinking that Captain Bai wanted more weapons and equipment, so he smiled and said:

"Old White, these equipments were captured by your Second Regiment, so you should take more. Otherwise, your regiment should take half of the share that belongs to our military sub-district, and the remaining half can be divided between the First Regiment and the Third Regiment."

The third captain nodded after hearing this. He could accept the first captain's proposal. After all, their regiment didn't contribute much, so it was good enough that they could get some equipment.

After hearing this, Captain Bai shook his head and said with a big laugh:

"Lao Sun, Lao Zheng, you two misunderstood me. I meant that these equipments should be divided equally between the two of you. Our Second Regiment will not participate."

Each of the three people present was a smart man. After hearing what Captain Bai said, they thought about it and understood the whole thing.

Captain Sun smiled and said, "Good old Bai, no wonder we didn't see many people from your Second Regiment when we came here. It turns out you were trying to prevent us from taking advantage of you."

Captain Zheng on the side also echoed: "That's right, Lao Bai, you are too unkind. Tell us quickly about the weapons and equipment of your Second Independent Regiment. Let us also know how much benefit you have gained this time?"
