Anti-Japanese War: I have a million soldiers and you call me a division commander?

"Teacher, Commander!"

Chu Feng, who had just fallen asleep, was awakened by the guard. Looking at the guard's excited face, he asked while putting on his clothes, "What's wrong? Did your wife give birth?"

"That's not right. Didn't you just get married not long ago?"

The guard listened to his division commander's words, but ignored them and said excitedly, "I just received a call from Director Shi of the Arsenal. The 60mm mortars, Type 01 semi-automatic rifles, and imitation Czech light machine guns produced by our arsenal have been successfully produced and officially put into production."

"Director Shi called and asked the division commander to go to the arsenal."

Upon hearing the guard's words, Chu Feng was stunned at first, and then an excited expression appeared on his face: "Okay, this is good news, hahahaha!"

Chu Feng smiled and quickened his pace in getting dressed, shouting as he did so: "Hurry up and tell this good news to Deputy Division Commander Ge, Chief of Staff Wang, and Director Li Mingqiang, and have them go to the Arsenal with me."

At this point, Chu Feng seemed to have thought of something and said, "Don't forget to tell Uncle Zhao Wu who is far away in Jincheng, Northwest China."

Hearing Chu Feng's words, the guard immediately said: "Commander, someone has been sent to notify Deputy Commander Ge and others. I will ask someone to send a telegram to Uncle Zhao Wu." After that, the guard hurried away.

"Hahaha!"

Chu Feng ignored him, put on his clothes with a big laugh, put on his military cap, put on his pistol and walked out.

When we arrived at the division headquarters, we saw Ge Dayong, Wang Tiezhu and Li Mingqiang hurrying over with happy looks on their faces.

"Commander, this is really good news!"

As soon as he saw Chu Feng, Li Mingqiang laughed and said loudly: "Today is the Little New Year, and the Chinese New Year is in a week. This is a New Year gift for us and all the officers and soldiers of the division!"

As Li Mingqiang finished speaking, Ge Dayong continued, "Yes, we have been waiting for this day for a long time."

"Are you not asking me, officers and soldiers, when will our domestically produced artillery be deployed to the troops?"

"Now, there's finally an explanation!"

At this point, Ge Dayong couldn't help but burst out laughing: "Hahaha!!!"

Chu Feng, Wang Tiezhu and Li Mingqiang also laughed, and the scene was full of joy and excitement.

"Let's go, let's go straight to the Arsenal!"

Chu Feng didn't waste any words. He called Li Mingqiang and the other two, got into the car parked outside the door, and headed towards the arsenal.

at the same time!

Uncle Zhao Wu from Northwest Jincheng had just gone to bed.

After coming here, his job was to coordinate the transportation of supplies on the one hand, deal with local warlords such as the three Ma in the northwest on the other hand, and he was also responsible for purchasing supplies.

After all, there are more and more troops and more and more factory workers, and there is a lot of food and clothing.

In less than a month, he spent more than 500 million yuan on buying horses, cattle, sheep, wheat, corn and fodder.

At the same time, he also sent people to recruit people and soldiers everywhere.

During this period, he also met with the chairman of Suiyuan Province and others to discuss the issue of joint resistance against the Japanese invasion.

"Uncle Wu, Uncle Wu, a telegram from home!"

As he got older, his sleep became shallower. As soon as he heard footsteps outside, Uncle Zhao woke up.

Before he could ask, the guard came in with a telegram and excitedly handed it to Uncle Zhao.

"Ok?"

Uncle Zhao Wu was stunned at first, then he took it and took a look, his face suddenly showing excitement and excitement: "Okay, okay, okay!!!"

Before coming, he heard Chu Feng say that several types of weapons in his own arsenal were about to be finalized and put into production.

He originally thought it would take three or four months, but who would have thought that the results would come out in more than two months.

Uncle Zhao had always been worried. Although the weapons and equipment of the Independent 1st Division were very good, they were not produced by themselves. Once the shells and bullets were used up, or the life of the guns was over, where would they get supplies?

But now, although there are only a semi-automatic rifle, a 60mm mortar and a Czech light machine gun, three simple infantry light weapons.

But the meaning is different. It means that we have completely gotten rid of our dependence on external purchases of rifles, light machine guns and 60mm mortars.

Moreover, he was very clear about the deal with the Bear Country and the United States. Once this deal worth $200 million was completed, most of the army's weapons and equipment could be produced by themselves.

Even if there is no way to obtain supplies from outside, the 1st Independent Division can still live a comfortable life.

"Once the Type 01 semi-automatic rifle goes into production, the Soviet-style rifles, Type 38 rifles, and Zhongzheng rifles currently in service will be eliminated."

"Tomorrow, I will be able to have a good chat with the chairman of Suiyuan Province, as well as the warlords of Sanqin Province and Sichuan Province."

"This elimination means 50,000 to 60,000 rifles!"

"Such a large amount of money would not only take up space in the warehouse, but it would be better to put it to the front line of the War of Resistance, so that it can continue to play a role in fighting the Japanese invaders."

Uncle Zhao is in charge of Northwest Jincheng. It’s not just about supplies, he’s also about doing business.

Before leaving, Chu Feng instructed them not to sell too many weapons and ammunition to the Three Horses of the Northwest, and even if they did, they could not sell them at a low price.

These thoughts flashed through my mind, and Uncle Zhao Wu's voice rang out: "In my name, send a congratulatory message to the Arsenal, congratulating all the employees of our Arsenal for their efforts. Although they are not fighting on the front lines, their contributions will be remembered by everyone."

At this time, Chu Feng, Ge Dayong, Wang Tiezhu and Li Mingqiang had already set off.

More than an hour later, the group arrived at the arsenal, and Director Shi Lei was already waiting at the door.

"Division Commander, Deputy Division Commander Ge, Chief of Staff Wang, Director Li!"

Seeing the four big men from the 1st Independent Division, Shi Lei hurried over to greet them.

"Lao Shi, come on, take us to see it!"

Chu Feng smiled and shook hands with Shi Lei and others, as did Ge Dayong and the others. After a brief greeting, Chu Feng couldn't wait to wave his hand and walked towards the production workshop under the leadership of Shi Lei.
