" Your Excellency, there's another serious problem. The number of aircraft in our North China Front Army is too small. At present, we have no way to ensure the safety of the sky above North China."”
"Yuxi, the headquarters already know about this. In a few days, there will be planes transferred from the mainland. New fighter planes will also be developed as soon as possible.”
"Sir, are you going to transfer the defense forces of the homeland?”
"Yes, this batch of nearly 500 aircraft is from the local defense force."”
"Then how can the headquarters guarantee the safety of the homeland?" Aoka Saburo asked worriedly.”
"Don't worry, the country is already urgently expanding the production of aircraft. With the help of the navy, there won't be a problem in the short term!”
"Shuaka, let's go all out to deal with this challenge and eliminate this hateful resistance as soon as possible!”
The Huabei Front Army immediately moved these two divisions to the vicinity of Chahar, and the other forces in the country had already learned of it sooner or later.
Xia Zilong was the only one who didn't know about the other party's situation until they completed their deployment due to the lack of intelligence.
However, they did not stop. Other than attacking other parts of Chahar, they were also making further plans to attack.
"Marshal, I think we should set our next target at Suiyuan!”
"Oh!"
"Do you think it's a bad idea, Marshal?" Long Zhenxiong asked. I think it's alright! There are less than 10,000 Japanese soldiers in Suiyuan now. As long as our army charges over, they will definitely not be able to resist.”
" I know all of this," Xia Zilong said." But I want to get an external outlet and develop my navy, so…"
"Oh! I was wondering why all the plans in the command center were to attack North China. So that's why!”
"Can you do it according to this plan?" asked Xia Zilong.”
"We have three tank divisions, two air force divisions, and the infantry that hasn't been trained yet. It won't be a problem for us to defeat them."”
"Alright then, you guys make a plan as soon as possible. We'll start implementing it next month!”
It was already the end of March. When April arrived, the north would truly enter spring.
Spring was warm and the weather was mild. It was a good time to send troops south!
……
In the cave in the south, there was another dispute about Xia Zilong, and it even caused a lot of opposition.
"This won't do. If he insists on such conditions, he'll have to increase the number of weapons they have.”
"Yes, people are the most precious. We shouldn't have made this deal. But for the great cause of the war, they had no choice but to make sacrifices, but they couldn't sell it at such a low price, right?”
"I think it's better to cancel this deal. The other party actually doesn't put us in his eyes. Then why should we stick our warm faces to his cold buttocks?”
"It's still possible to cancel the deal now. Recently, the Japanese have greatly reduced their military strength, and we have already made great progress. As long as we have some time, our strength will be much stronger.”
"We can still make a deal. Although the army has expanded, many of the soldiers do not have weapons, and they also lack artillery that can take on the heavy responsibility of attacking.”
"Yes, I think we still need to exchange some weapons, but we should ask the other party to increase the number.”
The venue was noisy with all kinds of voices.
However, in the end, everyone still felt that they should make this deal.
During this period of time, due to the complete retreat of the Japanese, their troops had developed too quickly. They were really troubled by weapons and ammunition.
Moreover, with their current strength, if they did not have more sources of weapons, they might not be a match for the Japanese.
In the end, in order to take into account the opinions of all parties, they decided to reduce the number of people who would be traded over and try to obtain more weapons and ammunition.
When Zhu Sange visited them again, Xia Zilong agreed to their request in principle, but only increased the ammunition for each machine gun to 80,000 rounds. He did not agree to increase the quantity.
At the same time, he promised them ten 75mm cannons, each equipped with fifty rounds of ammunition.
Although it seemed like a lot, these machine guns and cannons consumed a lot of energy. To them, who could not even guarantee the logistics, they did not know if it was good to have so many automatic weapons!
Just like that, he managed to get more than ten doctors, more than 100 nurses, and hundreds of scholars from the other party.
On the morning of April 1st, Xia Zilong invited him to attend the swearing-in ceremony of the southern expedition army.
With Long Zhenxiong as the commander of the southern expedition army, three tank divisions, two air force pilots, and more than 20,000 new recruits were the main force of this southern expedition.
Looking at the dense array of more than 500 tanks and various types of vehicles on the field, Zhu San Ge was completely stunned.
In the past, they were not even fully equipped with firearms, let alone heavy weapons. Mortars were already their best support.
However, looking at the equipment on the scene, there were tanks, artillery, cars, and planes parked at the airport not far away.
He finally understood why Xia Zilong was unwilling to cooperate with them. It was because they were not qualified.
The other party had basically achieved mechanized combat now, but he could not even be completely self-sufficient in firearms and ammunition. When the time came, would they work together? Or was the other party helping him?
In fact, this was because the frontline troops had already set off. In addition, not all the tank divisions were nearby, so there was only so much equipment participating in the parade.
While he was still in shock, Xia Zilong had already recited the speech that he had prepared. The morale of the army was high, and they were ready to set off at any time.
Xia Zilong felt very proud as he watched the large group of people board the vehicles and set off.
"Boss, do you think an army like mine can fight against the Japanese North China Army?”
Zhu San Ge sighed with emotion and said,"Amazing, amazing!" Now, he finally knew what it meant to be a frog in a well. Today, he had finally broadened his horizons!
Although the infantry in the commander's army seemed to be lacking, the Japanese were no match for them with such weapons and equipment!”
"Haha…the boss is indeed wise. He saw through our shortcomings at a glance. That's right, many of these infantrymen had never been on the battlefield. Most of them had only been trained for a month, barely making up the numbers!”
At this time, Zhu San Ge asked,"Marshal, you are so rich that we poor relatives don't dare to climb high." However, when can you give us the weapons and equipment you gave us?”
"Anytime!" Xia Zilong replied.”
"Alright, thank you. We'll arrange for someone to transport it back as soon as possible.”
Xia Zilong waved his hand and said heroically,""No need, just go back and get them to prepare the personnel. I'll get the transport plane to fly them directly to your place and then pick them up.”
Zhu San Ge was shocked again. The other party's strength had actually reached such a level?
