Chapter 149: Zhang Dabiao, you don’t have much ability, but you have a bad temper! 3-word chapter!
Li Yunlong cursed with a fierce face: "Zhang Dabiao, your idea is very dangerous. You can't increase the difficulty of training just because you are afraid of losing vehicles. These fancy things you put up are completely useless on the battlefield. Do you think the Japanese will specially prepare a good place for you to lead the armored battalion to launch an attack?"
"The loss of armored vehicles is just a loss. At worst, we can seize them from the Japanese. Even if we can't seize them from the Japanese, it won't take long for us to achieve independent production."
"The great expert has promised me that in three months, our arsenal will be able to independently produce armored vehicles. To be honest, I really don't like the junked copper and iron of the Japanese. Look at how thin the armor is. If it weren't for the armored steel developed by the great expert, it might not even be able to block a mortar shell from the Japanese. Counting on this thing to attack the Japanese is a sure thing. That's playing with the lives of the soldiers!"
Zhang Dabiao muttered quietly, "Captain, no matter how capable the college students are, they can't make anything without rice. We can't make this armored vehicle out of thin air. I know the conditions of our independent regiment's arsenal. We can't even produce the Japanese's car engines, let alone armored vehicles."
"The hydroelectric generator that was finally put into operation breaks down every other day. It has broken down twice in the past few days since it was installed. It has almost become a big joke in our base."
"Captain, I'm not saying anything weird. I've followed you for so many years and I've seen all kinds of people. But this college student is really too evil. If you say he has a talent in drug research and development, I, Zhang Dabiao, agree with that. But when it comes to weapons manufacturing and research and development, college students can't really be called military experts. Captain, don't flatter him. The word "expert" has been talked about a lot by the people in the base behind his back, and even many soldiers in our independent regiment have complaints!"
Upon hearing about this, Li Yunlong immediately flew into a rage and said, "Zhang Dabiao, you've only had a few days' meal and you're already scolding the cook! Since the college students came to our independent regiment, they have produced a lot of good things. Now our independent regiment can produce grenades and mines, and we can also produce rocket launchers. Not to mention the flying thunder cannons before. What's more valuable is that we can produce artillery shells independently. Even if the power of the artillery shells is a little behind that of the Japanese, it has solved the problem of lack of artillery shells. You can't deny this, right!"
"You guys are always not doing your job, so I have to talk it out with you today, so that you won't think I'm biased. Let's talk it out face to face today!"
After Li Yunlong said this, Zhang Dabiao refuted without hesitation: "Captain, what you said is indeed true. Our independent regiment can indeed produce some weapons and ammunition now, but you can't ignore the fact that we have not yet solved the problem of rifle production. Even those submachine guns that have been produced are seamless steel pipes traded from the devils. Until now, our independent regiment arsenal cannot produce artillery and guns. Am I, Zhang Dabiao, right about this?"
"Now our arsenal can only produce mines and grenades at best. Even the production of bullets has been suspended. The quality of the bullets produced before was not good, but they were still barely usable. The production capacity of our only three-dimensional rocket is not up to the requirements. Our arsenal looks thriving on the surface, but it is actually just a showpiece!"
Zhang Dabiao's rebuttal made Li Yunlong unable to vent his anger. The current arsenal was indeed a bit disappointing. Apart from being able to produce the three things Zhang Dabiao mentioned, other things really could not be produced now. Li Yunlong said unreasonably: "Zhang Dabiao, you son of a bitch, stop refuting me. You are not qualified to say this to me. Think about what kind of life college students live every day. Do you feel guilty for saying this?"
"The college student has been busy day and night these days, all for the purpose of rebuilding the arsenal. He has been busy with the basic chemical plant these days. He said that after it is completed, the arsenal's production capacity will increase dramatically, and even our fuel shortage will be solved. Don't be so careless, you have been with me for so many years and I haven't seen you build an arsenal. Stop talking nonsense. If I hear you say these weird things again, I will beat you up!"
"After I go back, I have to talk to Lao Zhao about this matter. At the same time, I have to increase the intensity of the troops' training. I want to see if you still have the energy to gossip about others behind their backs!"
Li Yunlong returned to the regiment angrily and told Zhao Gang about it. Zhao Gang's face became very gloomy after hearing it, and he said in a serious tone: "Old Li, this matter must not be left alone. Otherwise, once it gets to the ears of the college students, wouldn't that be deliberately provoking conflicts?"
"In addition, I think the source of this incident is very likely related to Japanese spies and secret agents. You know, there have never been similar rumors before. How come it suddenly spread in the base area recently and almost became known to everyone? If there is no conspiracy, I will never believe it!"
Li Yunlong came to his senses now. He felt that this matter must be related to Zhu Ziming. He knew a lot about college students and it was very likely that he would do such a thing.
Li Yunlong said angrily: "This matter must be related to the damn Zhu Ziming. This kid actually managed to escape last time. I have to say that this damn luck is really good. He was able to escape twice in a row, and he actually became a big shot. I really have to pay attention to him, otherwise he will definitely cause trouble!"
Zhao Gang did not deny Li Yunlong's guess. He felt that this matter was most likely related to Zhu Ziming. As an officer of the security department, Zhu Ziming knew many situations in the base very well. Even the previous bombing of the arsenal must have been caused by this bastard who leaked the news.
"Old Li, there is no need to be angry with such a traitor. Since Zhu Ziming has become a traitor, he will definitely tell the devil all about our base in order to gain his trust. This rumor incident just reminds us that we must make drastic changes to our base. Otherwise, once Zhu Ziming and the devil find the defensive loopholes of our independent regiment, the consequences will be disastrous. The scene of the last sneak attack by Yamamoto's special forces must not happen again!"
Li Yunlong had really forgotten about this matter before, and nodded in agreement: "Old Zhao, what you said makes sense. The two of us should not do anything these days. We should rearrange the defense and various affairs of the base area. There must not be any loopholes left. Next time, as long as Yamamoto's special forces come, I will definitely keep them!"
Lin Zhenhua, who was busy in the arsenal at this time, had already heard the rumors outside, but he did not take it to heart. He felt that the rumor was a bit inexplicable. The affairs of the arsenal were top secret in the independent regiment. Ordinary people had no idea about the specific situation of the arsenal. He did not expect that the rumor was so detailed. This made him know the moment he heard the rumor that this was definitely a bad thing done by the Japanese.
However, it is actually a good thing for him. The less the military and civilians in the independent regiment's base care about the arsenal, the easier it will be to keep the arsenal confidential. This time, Lin Zhenhua plans to play a trick of hiding the truth.
The weapons and machine tools he traded with the Third Reich have already been shipped, and are expected to be delivered in two months. However, this matter must be kept secret. Otherwise, once the Japanese find out, the weapons and machine tools he traded may not reach his hands. If the system helps, this problem can be easily solved.
Xiaozhangzhuang stronghold, Yoshino Masao has been here for almost a month since he escaped. He did not dare to face his failure and locked himself in the house all day long. Except for eating, he never left the house. His face became extremely haggard and covered with beard.
The situation of Yamamoto Ikki and Hirata Kojiro was not very good either. The failure of this attack was a big blow to both of them.
"Hirata-kun, the special forces team has suffered heavy losses this time, with more than half of the team members missing. Now there are only about 40 people left, and most of the weapons and ammunition have been used up. I have already sent a telegram to General Shinozuka Yoshio, and it will take another half a month for the guns and ammunition to be delivered. For now, we can only defend the Xiaozhangzhuang stronghold and guard against the counterattack of the independent regiment. The situation is very bad!"
Yamamoto Ikki spoke of their current situation with a very heavy tone. Hirata Kojiro was also in a very bad mood. He was severely scolded by his uncle Tada Shun. He was given such a good opportunity to make a contribution, but he messed it up. He disappointed his uncle very much, which made him worry about his own future!
Hirata Kojiro said somewhat listlessly: "Mr. Yamamoto, if this continues, I will have no choice but to ask my uncle to let me go south to build a career and wash away the shame I have suffered before. I really don't want to leave. I almost became a hero of the empire. As long as we can capture Lin Zhenhua and obtain his technology, especially the magic medicine he made, once it is mastered by the empire, it will be a hen that lays golden eggs, and we will never have to worry about military expenses again!"
"Mr. Yamamoto, I plan to try again and tell the headquarters about Lin Zhenhua's miracle drug and ask them to send someone to test the ingredients of the miracle drug. What do you think of my idea?"
Yamamoto Ikki replied expressionlessly: "Hirata-kun, I think that medicine is similar to the powerful pills sold by the Chinese. There must be some strange things added to it. The reason why it has such a big reputation must be intentional. If you really tell the headquarters about this, it will probably be regarded as a joke. No one will care about it at all. You may even become a laughing stock among others. I advise you not to do this!"
