Eighth Route Army, Yanzhou headquarters!
"Sudden! Suddenly! Charge!"
When the two black smoking tractors appeared at the entrance of the Eighth Route Army's Yanzhou headquarters, they immediately attracted the attention of many soldiers.
"Hello, Minister Chen!"
When the soldiers of the guard company and the soldiers of the Eighth Route Army saw Chen Qi on the tractor, they immediately saluted and greeted him.
"Hello, comrades!"
Chen Qi alighted from the tractor in front of him. He first smiled and greeted the Eighth Route Army soldiers at the entrance of Yanzhou's headquarters. Then he turned to his guard and said,""Comrade Yilong, take the soldiers and the comrades from the headquarters to send the military uniforms and fabric to the logistics department.”
"Comrade Xiao You, bring two people to take the gifts I prepared for the Bureau Chief and follow me to meet the Bureau Chief.”
Chen Qi stood in front of the tractor and shouted.
In the past, when he came to the headquarters, he basically had to suck up to them and ask for money and supplies, so he couldn't be tough even if he wanted to.
Heh, it was different this time. He was here to deliver money and supplies to the headquarters.
He had to be tough for once.
No, in the future, I have to be tough every time.
"Yes, Minister!"
Yilong and Tang Xiaoyou heard Chen Qi's instructions and immediately shouted.
"Minister Chen, could it be that the cloth in your car is made of silk? It looks smoother than cotton cloth. This cloth must be very comfortable to wear.”
The soldier who was in charge of guarding the door was stunned when he saw the two tractors filled with denim fabric and the brand new military uniforms of Chen Qi and the others.
The soldiers from poor families had never seen such smooth and beautiful fabric and clothes. They only felt that the clothes worn by the landlord and the rich could not compare to the clothes worn by Chen Qi and the others.
Facing the envious gazes of the soldiers in the headquarters, the guards beside Chen Qi puffed out their chests and raised their heads. They patted the non-existent dust on their new military uniforms, and their pride was needless to say.
"This isn't silk. How can our Eighth Route Army afford to wear silk?”
" This is a new type of chemical fabric made from oil, coal, and other raw materials that our Phoenix Mountain Military Base has just developed. Comrades, don't worry. When our Phoenix Mountain Garment Factory is fully operational, we guarantee that all the soldiers of the Eighth Route Army will wear new clothes before the New Year.”
Chen Qi replied with a smile after hearing the envious words of the soldiers from the headquarters.
"Director Chen, are you serious? Can we wear such beautiful clothes?”
"This military uniform is so beautiful. I really want to wear it one day earlier."
"Minister Chen, this military uniform must have cost a lot of money. Can everyone really wear it?”
“......”
Hearing Chen Qi's promise, the surrounding soldiers couldn't hold it in any longer. They immediately started to ask questions, their faces filled with disbelief.
In their minds, how could the 8th Route Army afford to wear such a good material and such a beautiful military uniform?
It should be sold to the rich and powerful.
"Of course, this is my promise to everyone. If I can't fulfill it, everyone can go to the Phoenix Mountain military base to look for me.”
Facing the incredulous expressions of the soldiers from the headquarters, Chen Qi promised loudly.
"Minister, the gifts for the chiefs have been brought down!”
Tang Xiaoyou looked at the high-spirited Chen Qi, and her eyes could not help but flash with a glimmer of light. She carried the sealed metal bucket and waited for Chen Qi to finish before she reminded him in a low voice.
When Chen Qi heard this, he looked at the metal bucket in Tang Xiaoyou's hand and the large wooden box carried by the two guards and soldiers behind her, then nodded.
"Yilong, when you see Old Man Yang later, tell him directly that this batch of fabric isn't given to him for free. If you don't pay, don't let him unload the car."
Before leaving, Chen Qi smiled at Yilong and said,"Heh, it's too late to regret that he didn't give us the funds to build a clothing factory.”
"Hey, Minister, don't worry. Yilong promises to complete the mission.”
When Yilong heard this, he also chuckled. He was wearing a brand new military uniform and looked very arrogant.
After Chen Qi finished speaking, he smiled and brought Tang Xiaoyou and the two guards behind him to the office of the chief of the headquarters.
.................
Eighth Route Army Headquarters, in the meeting room.
A few heads of the headquarters were actively discussing and thinking of ways to deal with the Japanese's crazy sweep and the sudden cut off of the transportation routes between the Dragon Country and other countries.
The actions of the Japanese had not only affected Shancheng, but also Yanzhou, where the Eight Route Army was stationed.
After all, there were four major transportation routes connecting the Dragon Kingdom to the outside world. Other than the public sea route in Hong Kong, the mountain city occupied the Yunnan-Vietnam railway and the Yunnan-Myanmar highway, while Yanzhou occupied a route connecting the northwest to the Su Kingdom.
The northwest route was cut off, which was equivalent to cutting off the support of the big brother of the Soviet Union. All kinds of chemical raw materials and weapons and ammunition could not be supplied, which was undoubtedly a great loss for the Eighth Route Army.
Fortunately, the Phoenix Mountain military base was on the right track and could produce weapons and ammunition on a large scale. Otherwise, the northwest route would have been cut off, and Yanzhou would have been even more affected.
Of course, cutting off the northwest route wasn't the biggest headache. The biggest headache was that the Japanese had gone crazy and plundered the resources in the occupied areas to the extreme. They even formulated a three-for-all policy.
Kill them all, rob them all, burn them all!
They were completely forcing the people of the Dragon Country to death!
Moreover, winter was coming. Without food, blankets, clothes, or even a house to shelter them from the wind and rain, how could the people in the base live?
This was what worried the Bureau Chiefs the most.
Just as the heads were worried, Assistant Xiao Zhang suddenly walked in.
"Chiefs, Minister Chen is here. He has also brought two carts of fabric that is even more beautiful than silk. He said that the Yanzhou military base uses its own chemical fabric made from coal and oil.”
The few officers were stunned when they heard this. Then, they looked at each other and could see the confusion in each other's eyes.
What was going on?
Chen Qi came with two carts of cloth?
And this cloth was even more beautiful than silk, and it was made of coal and oil?
Was that even possible?
Wasn't cloth made of cotton, hemp, wool, silk, and so on? Since when could coal and oil be used to make cloth?
However, their assistant, Little Zhang, did not seem to be lying. This made them curious. Could it be that oil and coal could really be used to make cloth?
The highest-ranking official was stunned for a moment. Then, he stood up and smiled at the others in the meeting room."Oh, Comrade Chen Qi is here. Let's go out and welcome him.”
