Traveling through 1937, starting from the Battle of Songhu

"Okay, everyone must be hungry. Let's eat something first. You must be tired after all the travel."

"Everyone take a rest after eating. We can talk about it tomorrow."

Zhou Qianli spoke.

Zhao Ziqing said with a smile: "We've been eating canned Japanese meat and dry rations for more than ten days. I'm already sick of it. Old Zhou, you really understand us, haha!"

Then he asked Zhou Qianli to lead the way.

The food Zhou Qianli prepared was quite good. The group of people wolfed down the food like starving ghosts.

The main reason was that we had eaten too much cold food, and when we suddenly saw the hot food, our appetites were whetted, resulting in not enough food being prepared in the end!

However, it would be too late to do it again, so I had to give up.

The next morning.

Gu Changfeng woke up early and slept for fifteen or sixteen hours, finally making up for his sleep.

Zhou Qianli usually gets up very early. When he saw Gu Changfeng coming out of the tent, he walked over and asked:

"What are your plans this time? I heard from Lao Zhao that you have to go out for a while?"

Gu Changfeng nodded and said, "Tomorrow! Let's arrange the training today."

"By the way, did you find the forest when I asked you to look for it?"

They are now stationed in a village near Chuzhou, which is definitely not suitable for training.

"I consulted the villagers and found out there is a good place a few dozen miles away." Zhou Qianli replied.

"In terms of supplies, how long can this many people hold out?"

Gu Changfeng is more worried about this issue now.

"We can only eat two meals a day if we're conservative. We can only last five days at most. After five days, we'll run out of food."

Zhou Qianli said.

This time, while stationed in Chu County and gathering the defeated soldiers, they spent almost all the money they had looted.

He was worried at the moment, as the team had no plans to cause trouble for the Japanese recently.

It will be troublesome if the food is cut off. How can the soldiers listen to you if they have no food?

This is a big problem.

Gu Changfeng thought for a moment and said, "Well, let's try to contact Division Commander Wang Yaowu and see if he can get us some supplies."

"If all else fails, I can trade weapons for them. This time I can get a lot of weapons and ammunition."

Time was too tight and he had no time to lead his team out to cause trouble for the Japanese.

If Wang Yaowu in Jinling is willing to help, it will definitely be more convenient than him!

This guy is the God of Wealth, and his connections are much wider than his.

Zhou Qianli frowned, thought for a moment, and asked, "What weapon do you plan to exchange for?"

There are still many people in the team using Hanyang and Zhongzheng rifles, and they are really not happy to exchange their weapons.

Although Gu Changfeng said that he could get a large number of weapons, who would complain about having too much of that stuff?

"We have exactly fifty heavy machine guns. Give them to them if you want them. We'll trade them for this."

The heavy machine gun is dispensable to Gu Changfeng, he still thinks it is too heavy!

It would be very useful in an ambush or defensive battle, but he wanted to exchange it for something better, so there was no need to keep it.

Gu Changfeng didn't think it was a big deal, but Zhou Qianli felt his scalp tighten when he heard it. What a big deal.

We finally got 50 Type 92 heavy machine guns and exchanged them for food?

Gu Changfeng glanced at Zhou Qianli's expression and explained with a smile:

"It's just the Japanese Type 92 heavy machine gun. I'll get a better one later. There's no need to keep this thing."

There are many rifles on his system page that have longer range and faster firing rate than the Type 92, so there is no need to worry about firepower in this regard.

And the price is not expensive, only 200 points.

The extra points he got this time were enough for him to exchange for increasing the combat effectiveness of the entire team.

Zhou Qianli opened his mouth, sighed, and said, "Then I'll go contact Commander Wang and see."

"But he wanted a bazooka before. What should we do if he makes that request this time?"

He really couldn't bear to part with it. A heavy machine gun was not a piece of trash that could be thrown away at any time. It was a weapon on the battlefield.

"If the price is high enough, it's okay to give him a few." Gu Changfeng said.

"Okay, then I'll send a message and ask."

Zhou Qianli said this and walked towards the telecommunications class.

Wang Yaowu, who was a hundred miles away, was a little surprised to suddenly receive a telegram from Gu Changfeng's troops.

The two parties hadn't been in contact for some time, so he felt a little strange that they suddenly got in touch.

However, when he saw the content of the telegram, he immediately laughed out loud and said to Gao Ling.

"This kid is finally in trouble, haha!"

Gao Ling's face was full of questions. Who was this kid referring to?

Who could have guessed what this sentence meant?

Wang Yaowu didn't notice Gao Ling's expression and continued to say with a smile:

"I have to take out my knife this time. I won't feel comfortable if I don't kill this kid once!"

Gao Ling suddenly had an idea and laughed.

"Master, you are talking about that kid Gu Changfeng, right?"

Wang Yaowu affirmed, "It's him. He's come to us for help this time."

"What's going on? Is he in trouble?" Gao Ling asked.

Wang Yaowu shook his head and nodded, then said, "It's not that he encountered the Japanese, but this guy is short of food and wants to trade weapons with us."

Gao Ling said in surprise, "This kid is so fat, Master, we can be a little more ruthless this time."

"That's for sure!" Wang Yaowu laughed happily.

Gao Ling suggested, "Commander, weren't you thinking about his rocket launcher last time? The kind that can kill Japanese tanks with one shot?"

"This request must be made, and it must be obtained!"

Outside Qingpu City, they all heard the report that this thing could easily defeat the Japanese tanks.

If they don't take this opportunity, how can they get it?

Wang Yaowu obviously had the same idea as Gao Ling. He smiled and began to instruct the signalman to call back.

Zhou Qianli did not respond immediately after receiving the telegram, but instead started to ignore Wang Yaowu.

If you return at night, you can exchange it for 50 heavy machine guns, but you won't get any rocket launchers.

This news made Wang Yaowu, who had been waiting for a whole day, very depressed.

Zhou Qianli is not that stupid. Although Gu Changfeng said that a rocket launcher is fine, when doing business, he definitely has to bargain!

Besides, the heavy machine guns are not bad, and they are equipped with more than 2 rounds of bullets. How can it be so good that they want everything?

Wang Yaowu was depressed and asked Gao Ling.

"They said they could give us 50 of the Japanese Type 92 heavy machine guns, equipped with multiple rounds of ammunition. Do you think that's okay?"

Gao Ling hesitated and said, "Heavy machine guns are good, but to deal with the Japanese armored vehicles and tanks, we still need the rocket launchers they use!"

"I know that too, but this kid refuses to do so. It makes me so angry." Wang Yaowu said helplessly.

Gao Ling thought for a moment and said, "Master, let's wait a little longer. They are short of food, and we have room for bargaining."

Wang Yaowu was silent for a moment before saying, "This kid wants a lot of food, and we don't have enough. Is there any way to deal with this?"

Nowadays, a soldier eats about one pound of rice a day, which is enough to keep him from going hungry, but not enough to keep him full either.

In fact, although Wang Yaowu's troops were not very short of food, it was still impossible to squeeze out hundreds of thousands of people at once.

The price of food is also high now. In Jinling City, the price of rice is almost one silver dollar per catty. Even he was shocked by the increase.

It can be said that Gu Changfeng did give him a big problem.
