Chapter 599: The Armed Workers' Team Changes Their Uniforms
Upon hearing such good news, Shopkeeper Shen was overjoyed. Their troops in Guangdong Province just happened to need all kinds of supplies, especially this kind of military radio, which was the most urgently needed.
If they are equipped with radios, it will be much more convenient to communicate with the fleet at sea in the future. They won't have to rely on their two feet to do everything like they do now, which often delays things.
Of course, 900 tons of flour is also a good thing. If converted, it is almost a kilogram, which is enough for the main force to eat for a long time.
The most important thing is that this is only the first batch. Supplies will be shipped back continuously in the future, so the strength of their troops will definitely develop rapidly.
Manager Qian continued, "We have already ordered 20 transport ships from other places that can carry 50 tons at a time. They will be shipped here in batches next time. All you have to do is find qualified crew members."
"As for weapons and equipment, we will find a way to ship them back in large quantities once the sea transport line is fully opened."
"But in order to improve the strength of the transport team, I specially asked someone to transport some weapons this time, including 20 Bren light machine guns, 200 Mauser pistols, and 10 rounds of bullets in total."
Hearing this astonishing number, Shopkeeper Shen didn't know what to say. He could only sigh that it was a really generous move. This one move could scare many people to death.
With these weapons and equipment, it would be great if they could at least put out a team of 500 people to escort the supplies.
Originally, in order to better complete today's mission, the superiors specially transferred four guerrilla teams and an armed work team from nearby, with a total of more than one hundred people. Although the number of people is not small, the equipment is pitifully small.
The weapons of all the people combined included: two Type 38 rifles, twenty-two Hanyang rifles, six Mauser pistols, one Type 99 light machine gun, and about 600 rounds of bullets. The rest of the team members were holding homemade guns.
Moreover, the Type 99 light machine gun was specially mobilized from the main force by the superiors in order to better transport supplies. Oh, and there were also 100 rounds of bullets, which was already the most important heavy firepower of the guerrillas.
The main reason is that this place is too far away from the arsenal in Shanxi Province. There is no way to transport supplies here in a short period of time, especially guns and ammunition, which can easily be discovered by the Japanese and traitors along the way.
When Kong Hao learned about the situation here, he specifically reported it to Minister Zhang, intending to use the sea transportation channel to secretly transport some guns and ammunition to arm some of our main forces and guerrillas along the coast.
At the same time, over in the Kangaroo Country, Kong Hao's territory has grown to a considerable size, and various factories have been established. It would be a good idea to open a branch base to produce weapons and ammunition, and the conditions would be much more convenient than in China.
Minister Zhang was naturally overjoyed after hearing this. In fact, he was also well aware of the difficult conditions facing the comrades along the coast. However, we had no other choice. The Japanese navy was very powerful, while we did not even have a single armed ship. The difference between the two was simply worlds of difference.
However, China's coastline is so vast that no matter how many warships the Japanese have, they can only occupy most of the coastal ports, some small docks, or simply where fishing boats dock. The Japanese simply do not have the strength to watch over them all.
To put it bluntly, this kind of thing only needs a shallow beach. Even if the Japanese were asked to look for it, they probably wouldn't be able to find it. At the same time, given the Japanese's arrogant character, they probably wouldn't bother to do so. It has no economic value in the first place.
This was indeed the way events had developed, but who could have imagined that a man with cheating powers would appear in this Chinese space and time, and everything became different.
When Manager Qian saw that everything had been explained almost completely, he quickly ordered his men to unload the goods. Of course, the first things to be unloaded were the military radios, weapons and ammunition, which were the most important things.
Manager Shen also sent someone to find Captain Wu of the Armed Work Team who was responsible for the encirclement of this transportation operation and explained the situation to him.
After hearing this, Captain Wu was overjoyed. No, this could not be described as overjoyed at all. It should be described as ecstasy and ecstasy.
Even the weapons of an elite armed work team like theirs were extremely poor. There were only two Mauser pistols in the team of twelve or eighteen people, and the rest were rifles. The Type 99 light machine gun was temporarily transferred there by their superiors and would have to be returned in the future.
With such a small amount of weapons and equipment, if they encountered a Japanese squad during transportation, they would probably not be able to defeat them. This was why he had been worried since he received the task from his superiors.
But now when they heard that they would be allocated 20 Bren light machine guns, they immediately felt that this was a huge good thing.
You know, this Bren light machine gun has thirty rounds of bullets in one magazine, which is ten more than the Czech light machine gun. Its other performance is comparable to the Czech light machine gun commonly used by our troops. It is definitely more expensive than the Japanese Type 38 rifle.
Of course, so many light machine guns will definitely not be given to their armed work teams. Most of them will be handed over to the main force for use. But if they can be given 2-3, that would be a great thing. By then, their transport team can completely compete with a small enemy squad.
As for the 200 Mauser pistols, they were also good stuff. Their armed work team was finally able to replace all its members with pistols, which made it more convenient to fight behind enemy lines.
After the weapons, equipment and ammunition were unloaded onto the boat, Captain Wu could not wait to open a box. When he saw what was in front of him, his eyes lit up immediately, and he said in surprise:
"A side-opening Mauser pistol. Good stuff, really good stuff. And it's brand new. It looks like it was taken directly from the arsenal."
At the same time, he looked at Shopkeeper Shen eagerly. His purpose was self-evident, which was to be equipped with the new gun first.
Shopkeeper Shen was also a little embarrassed by the look on his face, so he could only nod and say, "Captain Wu, your transport team will first receive four light machine guns and fifty Mauser pistols. As for bullets, take as many as you can. Send a capable team to transport these guns, ammunition and radios back first."
"The leader is so domineering!"
After receiving the order, he first took out the old Mauser pistol that he usually treasured and threw it aside. Then he took out two more Mauser pistols from the equipment box and inserted them into his waist, and also took two hundred rounds of bullets from the bullet box next to him.
In fact, he is good at using two guns, and his shooting skills are pretty good. It's just that our troops don't have such conditions. For a long time, he could only fight the enemy with an old Mauser pistol. There was nothing we could do about it.
But now it’s different. With so many new guns, he can pick two weapons that suit him, which will at least double his combat effectiveness.
The other members of the accompanying armed work team also followed suit and picked out a brand new Mauser pistol for themselves. Each of them took 100 rounds of bullets. There was even one who was very strong and took 200 rounds. There was nothing else they could do; they were afraid of being poor.
Even for an elite small unit like theirs, ammunition has never been sufficient, and they have been counting bullets in every battle. Now that they have finally made a profit, everyone wants to get more.
