358th Regiment Headquarters.
Chu Yunfei looked at the map hanging on the wall and was dumbfounded!
Before he transmigrated, he was just an ordinary office worker.
Now that he had transmigrated, he had become a regiment commander.
Although he had some memories as a foundation, could memories be used as food?
The plan for the sneak attack on the Sakata United was made by the General Staff.
He had only moved his mouth and said that he would follow this plan!
In fact, Chu Yunfei wasn't sure if the plan was good or not.
Sigh!
If it was any other time, it would be fine. If he was not competent, he would not be able to write a resignation letter.
But at this time, writing a resignation letter?
Where could he go?
Not to mention, in a time of war, he had a large number of troops.
Not only was it safe, but at the very least, the drinks were all good.
If he resigned, how would he survive?
It was impossible to resign. It was impossible to resign in this lifetime!
No matter what, he had to keep this official position and live on with good food and drink!
Understanding his current situation, Chu Yunfei began to think.
How could he survive in this era and live better?
Of course, there was another very important thing, which was to give the Japanese the greatest damage.
Damn it, there was no chance before transmigration.
Now that I've transmigrated, I'll be able to do it.
If he didn't kill more Japanese, wouldn't he be letting down his conscience?
But what should he do to strengthen himself and kill more devils?
Just as Chu Yunfei was thinking hard, the Chief of Staff, Fang Ligong, walked in.
He said excitedly,"Regimental Commander, the rewards from the higher-ups have arrived! Officer Yan rewarded the regiment commander with 5,000 yuan and promised to replenish the ammunition as soon as possible! In addition to this, Chairman Jiang also received a reward of 20,000 yuan! This wasn't a legal currency, it was silver!”
The value of the fiat currency had depreciated to the point where it was almost the same as toilet paper.
If it was silver coins, it was very sincere!
After winning a battle, he was rewarded with 25,000 dollars.
However…
25,000 yuan sounded like a lot, but he was now the commander of Regiment 358.
Who would dare to mistreat him in his own territory?
The food and drinks were the best.
Just like this regiment headquarters, it was originally the residence of an old rich man in Shanxi.
It was now his headquarters.
As for why it had become his headquarters.
Don't ask!
If he asked, it would mean that the landlord had voluntarily given up his courtyard in order to resist the Japanese!
Therefore, money did not mean much to him now!
According to some memories, Chu Yunfei hesitated for a moment and said,""Staff Officer Fang. You took out 10,000 yuan to give to your dead brothers as compensation!”
"Yes, sir! Regiment Commander!" Hearing Chu Yunfei's arrangement, Fang Ligong was not surprised.
The 358th Regiment could become the main force of the Jinsui Army because they could fight.
He could fight because this regiment commander didn't drink soldier blood. He even often took out his salary to help his subordinates.
To be able to gain the support of his subordinates!
That was why he could fight!
"Bring 10,000 yuan to Ji County's Ke 'an Slope for some activities. Don't skimp on the money you should give. However, the guns and ammunition given to us must be of good quality. Of course, the most important thing was to think of a way to request for more cannons. If he couldn't get the mountain cannon, then the mortars would be fine!”
Fang Ligong was very excited when he heard that the regiment commander was going to allocate money for the event.
The regiment commander finally understood!
He knew how to use connections!
If the group leader wasn't so arrogant and only wanted to rely on his own ability to get to the top.
With his identity as a native of Mount Wutai in Shanxi Province and as a member of Huangpu 5th, he would definitely not be a mere regiment commander in the Jinsui Army or the Central Army.
A teacher was qualified enough!
"I will not disappoint you, Commander!" Fang Ligong said happily.”
……
In Yang Aiyuan's study room in the 6th Army's headquarters.
"Commander-in-chief, this is that old bastard Sakata's sword. It's a colonel's sword! This is Commander Chu's gift to you, Commander!”
On the surface, it was a colonel's saber, but on the ground was a box filled with ten thousand dollars!
When Yang Aiyuan saw this, he immediately said angrily,"Who do you think I am? Take it away!”
Of course, Fang Ligong didn't take it away. He smiled and said.
"Commander, our regiment commander has always respected you! He said that he was able to become a regiment commander because of your care, commander-in-chief. Now that he had money, he wanted to express his gratitude. Sigh, if it wasn't for the fact that our regiment had suffered heavy casualties in order to eliminate the Sakata United Team. He needed a lot of money to settle down for his dead brothers. Otherwise, Regiment Commander Chu would have used all his silver coins to honor you, Commander! Not to mention, this silver was a gift from Generalissimo Jiang. Our regiment commander felt that it was too hot to hold, so he gave it to the commander!”
When Yang Aiyuan heard this, he was very pleased that Chu Yunfei knew how to behave.
What was Jiang Jieshi planning?
How could Yang Aiyuan not know?
Back then, in order to win him over, Jiang Kai-shek had sent him a draft of 500,000 yuan for the first time, and in less than a month, he had sent another 400,000 yuan.
In order to show his loyalty to Yan Xishan, he treated this money as public funds sent from Nanjing and used it on the daily expenses of the Jinsui Army.
The 20,000 yuan that Jiang Jieshi had awarded him was something that Chu Yunfei had risked his life for.
If he stayed and enjoyed it himself, no one else had the right to say anything.
However, he took it out and gave it to her.
This was clearly a display of his loyalty to the Jinsui Army and Commander Yan!
He had to accept the money, or else Chu Yunfei would not be at ease. Officer Yan would also be wary of Chu Yunfei.
Yang Aiyuan didn't continue asking about the money.
"How many casualties did your regiment suffer this time?" he asked, changing the topic. How did you fight this battle?"
Casualties were often not shown on the telegram, or they were briefly mentioned.
Only the reports submitted after the war would have detailed explanations, but this report was kept in a confidential place. Yang Aiyuan hadn't read it yet.
Now that Fang Ligong was here, he wanted to get to the bottom of it.
Seeing the commander-in-chief's question, Fang Ligong knew that it was time to complain.
He first described the battle, focusing on the heroic deeds of Regiment 358.
In the end, his eyes were a little hazy as he said sadly.
"This time, in order to completely destroy the Sakata United Team, our team fought bravely. More than 1100 people died, more than 400 were seriously injured, and countless were lightly injured! More importantly, our army had used up a lot of guns and ammunition. Commander, for the sake of our heroic fighting, please allocate more artillery ammunition to our regiment! This way, our group can continue to fight bravely and fight to defeat the devils as soon as possible!”
Hearing Fang Ligong's complaints, Yang Aiyuan pondered for a moment.
The 358th Regiment was the main force of his group army, not to mention that he had killed Colonel Sakata and defeated an entire regiment. She had really made herself proud.
The 358th Regiment was so good at fighting, so it was only right for them to give more supplies!
Besides, he had just shown his loyalty.
If he didn't express it, it would hurt Chu Yunfei's loyalty!
"What is your regiment lacking?" he asked Fang Ligong.”
Hearing the commander-in-chief's question, Fang Ligong knew that there was hope.
"If we can deploy 1,000 Type 24 rifles, 50 light machine guns, 20 mortars, 1,000 shells, and 2 mountain cannons…"
Fang Ligong's voice grew softer and softer.
Because he saw that Yang Aiyuan's expression was very ugly.
If it was before the war, Yang Aiyuan would have given him the equipment for almost a regiment on account of his beloved general's request.
In the middle and late 1936, it was predicted that the Japanese army would invade the pass on a large scale.
The Shanxi Munitions Factory Army increased their production. During this period of time, they produced a total of 24 16-type 105mm mountain cannons. 40 Type 17 75mm Mountain Cannons and 200 Type 13 75mm Mountain Cannons.
At the same time, they could produce 800 Type 65 rifles (imitation of Type 38 big cover) and 3000 Type 24 rifles (medium official) per month.
There were 600 light machine guns and 90 heavy machine guns.
150 mortars and 80,000 mortar shells.
300,000 grenades, 1.5 million bullets, and 123 tons of explosives.
However, in November 1937, Taiyuan fell. Before that, although Yan Xishan had personally supervised the relocation, due to the sudden change in the war situation, time was short and transportation was difficult, so most of the machines could not be shipped out and fell into the enemy's hands.
At present, the Chenggu, Guangyuan, Zhongbu, Xiangning, and other sub-factories could only produce about 3000 rifles, 100 light machine guns, and 80000 grenades per month. 30 mortars and about 10,000 mortar shells. 2 Mountain Cannons, 200 rounds.
As for the Type 16 105mm Mountain Cannon, he could not make a single one.
Even though he was Yan Xishan's most trusted subordinate, the 2nd battle area was not considered the 18th regiment's army. He still had to replenish the ammunition of the 7th regiment, 9th regiment, 32nd infantry division, 14th infantry brigade, 5th cavalry division, and 3rd cavalry brigade.
How could they give a regiment so many guns and ammunition?
Yang Aiyuan snorted and said,"I'll replenish the ammunition that I used up earlier." In addition, I will allocate 300 Type 24 rifles, 10 light machine guns, 5 75mm mortars, and 500 rounds of ammunition. As for Mountain Cannon. Seeing that you guys eliminated the Sakata United, I'll reward you with a Type 13 75mm Mountain Cannon!”
Originally, Fang Li Gong was asking for a sky-high price and paying back the money when he landed.
He only wanted two or three mortars this time. However, he didn't expect the commander to allocate five mortars at once and even get a mountain cannon. This was really a pleasant surprise!
"Thank you, Commander!" Fang Ligong stood up and saluted.”
Yang Aiyuan also stood up and said seriously,""I gave you the cannonballs. If you can't take up the responsibility, don't blame me for being ruthless. I'll take back these cannonballs and give them to the other groups!”
"Please rest assured, Commander. Our 358th Regiment will definitely not disappoint you!”
"Take my approval to the military supplies department to hand over the supplies!”
"Take care, Commander!"
"Yes! Go! Be careful on the road!"
Not only did he get 5 cannons, he also got a mountain cannon.
A great harvest!
After coming out of the commander's building, Fang Ligong felt as if his feet were floating!
Fang Ligong was in a good mood, but Li Yunlong's mood was so bad that his face was dark the entire day.
