After hearing the Chief of Staff's words, Liancheng Li was stunned for a moment and immediately understood what it was, but he didn't dare to make a decision.
"You said... It was the production of guns and ammunition.。”Li Liancheng asked excitedly.
"Yes, Young Master, this is it. This is a set of lathes used to produce and repair guns that the United States went to help the National Government. If there are raw materials, it can also produce ammunition. Although it is not an advanced equipment in the United States, it is considered very advanced in China. It was sealed in this warehouse after the civil war. Unexpectedly, a factory villager found it. He knew that we were going to Myanmar and told us about this place.”Hu Zi said excitedly," Young Master, we're rich this time. Once we get there, we just need to open up a few mines and we'll be able to produce our own guns and ammunition. We won't have to worry about weapons anymore."
"Regiment Commander Li is right. This is a treasure. With it, we can imitate the American carbines and Zhongzheng rifles that we are using now. This time, we can finally rest assured. We have our own lifeline now." Gong Ziqiang seemed to be talking to Li Liancheng, but also to himself.
As he caressed the ice-cold machine, he suddenly had a feeling that it was here waiting for him. Its value was more than an entire team. Li Liancheng thought.
"Alright then, bring all the people and their families who know how to use this set of machinery and force them to Myanmar. However, you must ensure their lives and safety. I just want to see if there are any other useful things left behind by the National Government in the county town."
"Remember, even if you lose your life, you can't lose it. Now, I'll order the establishment of a new battalion, named the Engineering Battalion. The commander will be a lieutenant colonel, and the personnel will include the workers and the soldiers guarding it. The rest will be handled by Zi Qiang and Hu Zi. Remember, you still have half a day. We don't need cars.”
" Yes, Master." After saluting, the two of them began to get busy. After all, it was not easy to split such a big guy. It also took time to adjust the personnel.
Time always passed quietly. When night fell in this small city on the border of China and Myanmar, it was time for Li Liancheng and the others to leave. For their departure, Yang Zhou even led the people of Jinghong to a farewell ceremony, but Li Liancheng declined due to military affairs. It wasn't that he didn't want to have a chance to show his face, but for some reason, the soldiers behind him suddenly accelerated their march, so they had to hurry up and move.
Right now, the entire army was no longer as demoralized as when they had first arrived. The entire army was filled with vitality and an imposing manner. The number of soldiers had also increased from the original 3000 to the current 7000. One-third of them were engineers and their families, and the rest were combat troops with 100% strength.
Hu Zi's 1st Regiment led the way, with three battalions of 2300 men. Wang Mazi's 2nd Regiment led the way, with two battalions of 1500 men. The division headquarters had 1000 men and the engineering battalion in the middle. As they marched towards Myanmar, there would be many compatriots following behind them. Therefore, they were not alone. There were still millions of Chinese compatriots living in Myanmar. They were destined to have an extraordinary beginning there, and a new era would begin.
After taking one last look at his homeland, Liancheng Li didn't even turn back to Myanmar. He secretly swore that one day, he would make South Asia a hot land for the Chinese people, and another homeland for the Chinese people.
The first volume (End), next will be the magnificent Myanmar strategy. Please read the first volume, War and Production.
