"Governor Zang! Please sit!"
Hearing this, Zang Shiyi was dumbfounded. Looking at the handsome young man in front of him, he really didn't know what to say.
Originally, the Japanese army had launched a large-scale attack on the northeast, and even Fengtian was no exception. Logically speaking, there should be no hope.
However, who knew that such a guy would suddenly appear? It really gave him an unprecedented surprise.
'Divide our forces to protect the various places, enter the North Camp alone, and wipe out the 29th regiment of the Japanese army…' All of this sounded like a legend.
However, it was really done by Feng Yong, Zhang Xiaoliu's sworn brother. It made people not know whether to laugh or cry. Could it be that the two brothers were playing a game? One was in charge of squandering, and the other was in charge of cleaning up the mess.
Thinking of this, Zang Shiyi's mouth became even more bitter. He couldn't help but say,"The incompetent pays his respects to Young Master Feng. Although there is a saying since ancient times that there are many heroes in troubled times, I still didn't expect you to hide it so deeply.”
Feng Yong remained expressionless as he sat at the head of the table, scrutinizing the Fengtian governor. No one could find any flaws in this person's life, whether it was his style or his talent. After the Huanggutun incident, he assisted Zhang Xueliang in stabilizing the situation in the northeast. Later, he became the governor of Fengtian and made great contributions to the northeast's finance. During his official period, he was even more honest and clean.
However, there was one thing that he could not understand. How could such a person surrender so easily after being detained by the Japanese Kwantung Army for three months?
Most importantly, Zang Shiyi was nowhere to be seen in the entire incident. As the governor, shouldn't he be the first to stabilize the order in the city?
Feng Yong, who couldn't figure it out no matter what, decided not to think about it anymore. He directly said,"Now that the entire northeast is in danger, Fengtian is no exception. The Japanese army is on the border, so I won't be polite with Governor Zang. I invited you here today because I have something important to discuss!”
After hearing this, Zang Shiyi didn't reveal his thoughts immediately. Instead, he stared straight at Feng Yong and asked,""I wonder what Young Master Feng plans to do next? Were they preparing to retreat with their things and people? Or..."
Oh? This made Feng Yong think highly of him. This guy was interesting. It seemed that he was not as useless as the rumors said. He had a lot of ideas. Feng Yong could not help but ask,"How about retreating? So what if we don't retreat?"
"If you want to retreat, then there is only one path left for the new citizens. However, this path is a path of survival for others, but for you, it is a path of death!”Zang Shiyi said lightly.
Feng Yong's face turned cold. He understood what this guy meant. That's right, if he hadn't taken over the 7th Brigade and Fengtian by force, this would have been his way out. But now, he had not only offended Zhang Xueliang, but also Nanjing. No one would sit by and watch him escape into the pass.
Losing the Northeast was too big of a blame. Zhang Xueliang couldn't bear it, and Baldy Jiang couldn't bear it either. But if it was Feng Yong, it would make sense.'Disobeying orders, provoking the Japanese army, and causing a war between the two countries' were the most suitable reasons to bear the blame.
"The Japanese army seems to be coming at us menacingly, but they are empty radishes. As long as Young Master Feng is willing to stay in Fengtian, with the support of the soldiers and civilians of Fengtian and even the Northeast, it might not be impossible to hold on.”Zang Shiyi continued.
These words made Feng Yong grumble. How did this guy look like a traitor? He was simply a hot-blooded and angry youth who loved the northeast!
"Alright! Let's not talk nonsense with each other. Let's be frank! You're in charge of the Munitions Factory. I have a lot of people under me now. I still have to continue recruiting, so I need a lot of weapons and ammunition.”
Even though he sounded very rude, Zang Shiyi remained expressionless. No one knew what this guy was thinking. It was terrifying! Feng Yong had planned to kill him without saying anything. After all, he wasn't the only one in the Munitions Factory who knew about the situation.
However, a few minutes later, Zang Shiyi revealed everything."There are 72679 Liao 13 rifles, 7973 79 single-barreled rifles, 7942 79 new short-barreled rifles, 2500 Type 38 rifles, and 6300 Manshari rifles in the warehouse."
"What?!" Before he could finish, Feng Yong interrupted him." Why are there so many types of guns?”
'My dear maternal uncle, he has at least a dozen types of rifles. He even has old toys from before World War I. He's going crazy.'
If this were a war, the entire army's logistics would collapse, not to mention whether they could explode.
"Eh! Starting from the old marshal, all the rifles in the northeast were stored in the arsenal. Some had been modified and upgraded, but most of them were useless, so they had been left there.”Zang Shiyi said with a strange expression.
For a warlord force that had decades of history and had once dominated the center, wasn't this quite normal?
Feng Yong finally understood. It seemed that the people of that generation were used to being poor, so they hid everything and refused to pack it up like scrap metal. However, they did not expect that keeping these old antiques would be useless until now.
"Alright! Don't tell me those old-fashioned things. Just tell me something that can be used!”
"Good!" Zang Shiyi nodded and said,""2167 light machine guns, 153 Type-17 light machine guns, 48 Type-13 65 light machine guns, 412 German MP-18 submachine guns, and 85 Mauser C96 submachine pistols.”
"210 Colt pistols, 138 Tokarev pistols, 300 FNM1900 pistols, 500 Browning pistols, and more than 2000 other pistols.”
"In addition, there are 137 37mm flat-fire cannons, 147 77mm field cannons, 55 Type 38 75mm field cannons, 13 Type 13 75mm field cannons, 21 Type 31 70mm rapid-fire cannons, 390 Type 82 mortars, and 97 150mm mortars.”
"About 180 million rounds of bullets and 500,000 rounds of cannonballs.”
Good fellow! Without even taking a breath, he explained everything that was stored in the Fengtian Munitions Factory's warehouse. Feng Yong was stunned. This guy was really capable!
However, this number really made him gasp. Although he knew that the Fengtian Munitions Factory was very powerful, he did not expect that there would be so much equipment left behind. No wonder the Guandong Army in history quickly expanded to more than 300,000 people after occupying Fengtian.
Fortunately, he managed to defend the Munitions Factory in time. Otherwise, if the Japanese really took it down, it would be useless even if he had the Greatest King System.
However, Feng Yong was most concerned about the production capacity. To be honest, he did not care about any of these weapons. Most of them were copied from Japan. Those Japanese equipment were famous for being trash all over the world. If they really fought with the West, they would definitely die!
If it was just a simple armed soldier to resist the Japanese invasion and defend Fengtian, he could completely ignore this because the weapons and ammunition in Fengtian's warehouse were enough for 100,000 people to fight for a year. However, he wanted to restore the northeast, unify the country, and dominate the world. How could he do it without a good foundation?
"Governor Zang! Tell me about the current situation of the Munitions Factory! I know what to do!" Feng Yong could not help but ask.
However, when Zang Shiyi heard this, an inexplicable look flashed across his eyes. He then explained,"Currently, the arsenal is divided into workshops for rifles, light machine guns, heavy machine guns, mortars, bullets, shells, and artillery.
"The gun factory can produce 120,000 rifles of various types, 3000 light and heavy machine guns, and about 180 million rounds of ammunition. The cannon factory could produce more than 300 light cannons, 30 105mm howitzers, 10 155mm cannons, and 1 240mm heavy cannon.”
"As for the mortar factory, it can produce 800 60mm mortars, 400 82mm mortars, and 90 150mm heavy mortars per year. There are enough ammunitions. If we have enough manpower, we can produce 20 to 30 per month.”
After he finished speaking, Feng Yong slammed the table on the spot and cursed,"Motherf * cker, don't resist, don't resist your grandpa! If this arsenal fell into the hands of the Japanese, would they still need to transport weapons from the country? They could arm millions of troops by producing them in the northeast.”
His words were not false. In the past, the Japanese army had used the Fengtian Munitions Factory to support the armaments of nearly a million Japanese troops in the entire northern region. This allowed them to free up their hands and attack South China on a large scale, launching war after war.
