This world was much bigger than Earth.
The total economic output of the 300 million people who grew flowers was also far beyond the history that Chen Ping 'an knew.
The size of the 18th legion was also much larger.
Therefore, it wasn't strange for him to take out 500,000 yuan.
Starting next year, when the 18th group army started to farm and develop, its military strength would further expand.
Moreover, for the Eighteenth Army, it was difficult to buy anything even if one had money.
The Japanese had a tight blockade. It was not enough to buy them bit by bit and transport them quietly.
Now that he had a big seller, there was no need to keep his family's assets.
Just as they arrived at the command center on the mountaintop, Li Yun Long brought a dozen people in.
"I, Old Li, don't have such strength. These are the representatives of my brother's troops. They have all brought orders. There are also the representatives of our brigade commander who are specially here to buy the Type 92 infantry cannon.”
After hearing Li Yunlong's introduction, Chen Ping 'an invited everyone to sit down.
Li Yunlong didn't waste any time and took out ten separate shopping lists.
The price was transparent, so each group had a clear picture of how much money they had brought and what they wanted to buy.
There were many lists. The most was 40,000 to 50,000, and the least was less than 10,000.
However, when combined, it was exactly a list of 500,000 yuan.
Chen Ping 'an looked at the contents of the list. Most of them were buying light and heavy machine guns and bullets.
Only 500 rifles were sold, accounting for one-tenth of the orders.
The remaining one-fifth was for the purchase of bullets, most of which were for light and heavy machine guns.
The remaining one-fifth was to buy light and heavy machine guns and grenade launchers, while the rest was to buy mortars and artillery shells.
The 200,000 yuan was used to purchase 20 Type 92 cannons and ammunition.
This should be Chen Geng's handiwork.
Chen Ping 'an even thought that the purchase of so many Type 92 infantry cannons was probably partly to support the headquarters.
The Type 92 Infantry Cannon was a god-like weapon against the Japanese's turrets. It was especially needed for the 18th Army, which lacked heavy firepower.
As for the other 75mm cannons, they were not convenient to transport. Even if they were more powerful, the 18th Army did not need them.
He didn't need large-caliber mortars either. He just wanted small-caliber mortars. He had bought a lot of grenade launchers, which were all equipment that could be easily transferred to other places.
Chen Ping 'an looked at the list and ordered his men to start preparing.
After putting down the phone, Chen Ping 'an said,""The things have been prepared. We'll just go and check them later.”
At this point, Chen Ping 'an looked at the list and asked,""Aren't there still prisoners of war? One prisoner of war is worth a hundred dollars. The items on this list are exactly five hundred thousand dollars, but those prisoners of war are not included.”
A few hundred prisoners of war were worth tens of thousands of dollars.
Before Li Yunlong could speak, a comrade sitting beside him said,""Leader Chen, our brigade commander has instructed us to give those captives to Leader Chen as a gift. If it wasn't for the fact that our brigade commander couldn't leave for the time being, he would have personally come to thank Leader Chen. At the same time, he also asked us to convey his gratitude.”
"Brigadier Chen is too polite. Since that's the case, I can't be stingy.”After several hundred prisoners were given to him, Chen Ping 'an picked up his phone and dialed the armory. He ordered,"
"Pack up all the Hanyang rifles and bullets that we have seized. Prepare 20 Type 92 heavy machine guns, 40 of which are crooked, and 200,000 bullets.”
As soon as Chen Ping 'an hung up the phone, Li Yunlong hurriedly said,""Brother, you're too polite. It's just a few hundred prisoners. We can't let you spend so much. If our brigade commander knew, he wouldn't accept such a generous gift.”
The comrade who represented Brigade Commander Chen also hurriedly said,"Leader Chen, this gift is too heavy. Our brigade commander only admires your character and is not here to take advantage of you. Please don't do this!”
Actually, these people were still a little suspicious before they came.
However, after entering Thousand Bull Mountain, this suspicion basically disappeared.
Thousand Bull Mountain's family business was not small.
Now, Chen Ping 'an was still so enthusiastic, which made them somewhat uncomfortable.
"This is also a small token of my appreciation. Right now, the Japanese are fighting everywhere, and your army is about to face the Japanese's sweep. I'm also busy on my side, so I can't provide you with direct support. This little gift is nothing to me. As long as I kill a few more Japanese, I'll be very satisfied.
At the same time, I also admire Brigade Commander Chen and his commanding ability. If there's a chance in the future, I'd like to consult him face to face!”
Seeing that everyone still wanted to decline, Chen Ping 'an said,""I have no use for these weapons. Instead of leaving them in the warehouse, I might as well give them to you. Just remember to help me kill a few more Japanese.”
At this point, everyone saw Chen Ping 'an's firm attitude, so they did not continue to decline.
Chen Ping 'an also took the opportunity to understand the situation of the 18th Army.
Chen Ping 'an immediately realized that this was most likely the battle that made Li Yun Long famous. The battle of the Gray Cloud Region was about to erupt.
In addition, Li Yun Long was also the new regiment commander, which was also in line with the identity of the beginning of the plot.
After chatting for half an hour, the armory had also sent the weapons to the square at the top of the mountain.
Chen Ping 'an, who had received the notice, also brought everyone to the square.
The weapons purchased by the Eighteenth Army were neatly placed on the empty ground.
Among them were the machine guns and bullets that Chen Ping 'an had given him.
Li Yun Long had brought quite a number of people with him. All the other groups had also brought their own people over. Not only did they bring over a thousand people, but they also brought a large number of carriages.
They could easily transport these weapons back.
At the same time, it could also ensure the safety of the road.
After all, these weapons were very valuable.
What Chen Ping 'an didn't know was that Li Yunlong had sent a battalion to meet them on the way to ensure their safety.
The 386th regiment had sent out their cavalry unit to receive them on the way.
The 18th Army was extremely concerned about this transaction.
At this moment, when they saw the neatly arranged weapons, the 18th Army's specialized personnel also began to inspect them.
Chen Ping 'an naturally had no objections to this. It was the first transaction, so it was only right for the other party to be careful.
