Chapter 447 Ding Wei, You Are Really a Goddamn Genius
With the equipment in hand, we can straighten our backs.
The brigade commander couldn't wait to dial the old chief's phone number.
Headquarters.
"Boss, the battle is about to start. We can't do it without bullets." The division commander raised his eyes and said melancholy.
"I know, don't rush me. Can I not know that there is a shortage of bullets? I have already asked the subordinates to find bullets. The brigade commander still carries 300,000 bullets on his back."
The more the boss talked, the more irritated he became. He waved his hand and said, "How about you see how much my head is worth and exchange bullets with the Japanese?"
"Three hundred thousand?" The division commander directly ignored the second half of his sentence and said, "Boss, you are a bit pushy. How could he get three hundred thousand bullets for you in such a short time?"
"How to get it is his business. His mission is to complete the mission!" The boss said angrily: "He is a brigade commander. Now he can't get 300,000 bullets. I will shoot him directly!"
"Shoot him?" the division commander said with a smile, "Are you willing? He is your old subordinate."
"I'm just saying, I know this matter is a bit difficult for him, but how can I not put some pressure on him?" the boss said with a smile.
"Besides, I don't really want to make things difficult. When the time comes, I will let him go if he can give me 150,000 rounds, not to mention 300,000 rounds."
After a pause, the boss continued: "If we hadn't been short of raw materials, I wouldn't have forced him like this. The daily output is only so much, and it's not even enough..."
Just as he was talking, the phone on the desk interrupted the boss.
Who called at this time?
The boss was a little confused and picked up the phone.
"Hey, this is the brigade headquarters. I'm the brigade commander. I'm looking for the boss." The brigade commander's voice came from the microphone.
What is this guy calling for?
I guess I feel that the pressure of 300,000 bullets is too much, and I want to ask for help to reduce the pressure.
The boss pretended to be dignified and said: "It's me, why are you looking for me?"
As soon as I heard the boss's voice, the voice on the other end of the phone became a little more happy: "Boss, I'm calling this time to report something to you!"
Seeing the confused look in the teacher's eyes, the boss covered the phone and said with a smile: "It's the brigade commander calling. I guess this guy is under pressure and wants to beg for mercy."
The teacher smiled and nodded.
"What are you reporting? Are you under pressure?" The boss said with a smile: "I know there can be pressure. You are under pressure and I am under pressure. How about this? How about I cut half of the 300,000 bullets for you?"
Now that the phone calls have come in, the boss is ready to step down and step up to the next level for his subordinates.
With 300,000 bullets and being surrounded by enemies, it was really difficult to get them in a short time, even if it was too difficult for him.
"No, Brigadier, I'm not here to plead for mercy." the Brigadier said with a smile.
plead?
I have one million bullets in my hand, and I completed the mission three times higher than the mission, and I’m still asking for a favor.
If there was a video call, you would definitely be able to see that the brigade commander’s mouth had reached behind his ears.
Not here to beg for mercy?
The boss also gradually realized that something was wrong with the situation. How could the brigade commander be smiling so happily?
From the moment the call was connected until now, this guy has always been smiling when he spoke. I don't know, he thought it was Chinese New Year again.
"Stop smiling in front of me, be serious!" The boss looked serious and said sternly: "If you have something to say, just say it, if you have anything to say, just fart, and if you have nothing to do, get out of here and look for bullets!"
"yes!"
The brigade commander stood up and said loudly: "Report to the boss, our unit has successfully completed the 300,000 rounds of ammunition you requested!"
"Didn't I say I would give you 300,000 bullets..." the boss said angrily.
Halfway through his words, the boss suddenly fell silent.
What did this kid just say?
Has the task of handing over 300,000 bullets been completed?
"What did you say, it's done?" the boss yelled into the phone.
The teacher opened his mouth and wanted to ask a question, but the boss stretched out his hand to stop him.
"That's right, boss, our department has successfully completed the 300,000 rounds of ammunition you requested. Tomorrow, no, tonight, we will deliver the bullets to the headquarters!" the brigade commander laughed.
How long has it been?
It hasn't even been half a month since I assigned the task, but this guy's task has actually been completed?
The boss keenly felt that something was not right about this matter, and subconsciously felt that the brigade commander had played some trick to fool him.
But then I thought it was wrong. He knew the temperament of his subordinates best. Even if he was being naughty, he would not do anything about it.
After all, this is related to whether the next battle will be successful and the lives of the soldiers.
Even if it was a trick, it would be difficult to get so many bullets in such a short period of time, even with their brigade together, but the shell casings would not be that easy to find.
"Can you tell me clearly, what kind of bullet?" the boss said, "You kid won't play any tricks on me again, right?"
"Don't worry, boss, all of them are serious Arisaka rifle bullets, authentic Japanese products!" the brigade commander chuckled.
Arisaka rifle bullets?
When did the 386 Brigade become so rich? Is it still 300,000 rounds?
There hasn’t been much action by the troops recently?
The boss had the same thought as the brigade commander when he first heard about it. He first suspected that the troops were involved in a large-scale operation, otherwise how could there be so many bullets.
But to seize 300,000 bullets is definitely a huge battle. How could there be no movement at the headquarters?
"You kid, tell me the truth, how did you get these 300,000 bullets?" The boss said in a shocked voice: "You kid, shouldn't you be hiding any private goods for me? Just wait until I ask you for the bullets."
?”
"No way, boss, am I that kind of person? I don't dare to act naughty in front of you." The brigade commander coughed lightly and then said.
"And boss, I didn't say it was 300,000 rounds of ammunition..."
"Stop trying to fool me, just say whatever you want. If it's Japanese bullets, even 100,000 yuan will do!" the boss said arrogantly.
"Boss, are you standing?" the brigade commander asked cautiously.
"You are sitting here, what's wrong?" The boss said dissatisfiedly: "Don't let me play with these things, just say whatever you want. I have never seen anything, and you are still worried about scaring me..."
"Boss, this time we got a total of 1 million rounds of ammunition, 200 boxes of detonators, and 300 boxes of explosives." The brigade commander smiled and said.
"No, it's just..." the boss said casually, but then he felt something was wrong with the number.
one hundred…
one million?
The boss clenched the microphone and shouted into it: "What did you just say? How many bullets did you get?"
The brigade commander smiled and said: "Report to the brigade commander, no more, no less, 1 million."
"One million?" Upon hearing this number, the boss trembled in his heart and said coldly: "You kid, don't make fun of me. Even if you are sold, you are not even worth a million bullets!"
When the teacher heard this, he was also shocked. The hand he was holding up the water bowl to drink stopped in mid-air and looked at the boss in surprise.
What a million.
The brigade commander said sternly: "How can you do that, boss? No matter how much I joke, I don't dare to blame you, let alone joke about this matter."
"Tell me the truth, how many bullets are there?" The boss gritted his teeth and said, "Don't tell me a million, do you really believe me?"
"Of course there are more than one million bullets!" the brigade commander stood up again and said in a loud voice: "There are also 200 boxes of detonators and 300 boxes of explosives!"
Hearing the brigade commander's firm words again, the boss began to believe it. Could it be that this guy really got a million bullets?
"...Okay, I believe you. If you don't let me see you today, I will skin you alive!" The boss also became angry at this moment, and hung up the phone after speaking.
"Boss, what one million?" the division commander asked curiously: "Is it possible that boy got one million rounds of bullets?"
The boss nodded and said: "As you said, this guy called and said that he had got a million bullets and was waiting for us to take over."
"...One million rounds of ammunition?" the division commander asked in surprise: "What did he do? We haven't heard of any Japanese arsenal being confiscated, right?"
"Who knows what's going on? When he comes, we will find out after asking." The boss shook his head and said angrily.
"What if he lies to you?" the teacher asked with interest.
"Lied to me?" The boss snorted coldly and said sternly: "If that kid dares to lie to me about this matter, I'll see if I don't make him into a bullet!"
"Boss, who are you going to make into a bullet?"
As soon as the deputy chief of staff walked in, he heard the boss cursing at the headquarters. He was a little curious as to who had made the boss angry again.
"You would never imagine that the 386th Brigade has solved the bullet issue!" the division commander said with a smile.
"It's a good thing that the bullets are solved." The deputy chief of staff smiled and said: "It doesn't matter what kind of bullets, as long as they can be used?"
"Serious Arisaka rifle bullets." The teacher smiled.
"One million rounds." The boss added.
"It's more than that." The division commander waved his hand and said, "In addition to bullets, there are also hundreds of boxes of detonators and explosives."
"..." The deputy chief of general staff was stunned on the spot.
If he didn't know the temperament of the two old friends, he would definitely think it was a joke.
The detonators and everything else are secondary, just the million rounds of bullets. Isn’t this really a joke?
"Look, I knew this old guy of mine would be like this!" The boss looked at the teacher with an expression that showed he had known this before.
"...He's really not joking?" the deputy chief of staff asked in surprise: "One million rounds of bullets, what did he do?"
"Who knows." The boss said: "I don't know what kind of fraud this kid made, but if he can't come up with it, I won't be polite!"
Brigade Headquarters.
"Brigade commander, if you are worried, ask Ding Wei to come with you!" The deputy brigade commander saw the brigade commander's worried look and immediately understood what he meant.
"We can't transport so many bullets in one trip. I don't know how many times we have to transport them back and forth."
After all, this is not tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands, but one million. All the words have been released, and if something goes wrong, it will be over.
"Hey, that's right!" The brigade commander's eyes lit up and he said, "How could I have forgotten this?"
With that said, the brigade commander quickly walked to the phone and dialed the number. Even if there was a problem, he could deal with that kid Ding Wei as soon as possible.
28 team site.
"Old Ding, what did the brigade commander say?" Qiu Chan asked.
Ding Wei hung up the phone and said with a smile: "The brigade commander said he was worried about problems on the road and asked me to accompany him to escort the car."
"I knew the brigade commander wouldn't believe it." Qiu Chan joked: "Old Ding, you'd better pray that there are enough bullets, otherwise the brigade commander will definitely take action on you!"
"Operation?" Ding Wei grinned and said, "The brigade commander may not have this chance!"
…
However, the boss's idea ultimately came to nothing.
More than an hour later, there was a sound of car engines outside the headquarters, which was also mixed with the cries of mules and horses. For a while, it was full of people and it was very lively.
"Coming?" The teacher's eyes lit up.
"It seems to be coming!" the teacher said after listening for a while.
The deputy chief of staff said: "Let's go, two old guys, go out and take a look at the one million rounds of ammunition!"
one million…
The deputy chief of staff would not believe anything he said.
The three of them walked far away and saw that there were at least dozens of mule carriages on the road leading out of the headquarters, including several trucks.
Without even getting close, you can see that the mule and carriage are piled with ammunition boxes, almost forming a hill.
The brigade commander was now instructing the soldiers to unload the items on the vehicle, and the soldiers ran towards the warehouse holding the ammunition boxes.
When I looked carefully, Ding Wei was there too.
"Boss, division commander, chief of staff!" the brigade commander stepped forward.
Ding Wei also stood up.
"Ding Wei, why are you here too?" the boss asked strangely.
"Report to the boss, this bullet was found by Ding Wei. I specially called him to report this to you!" the brigade commander laughed.
"Ding Wei?" The boss frowned slightly.
The eyes of the division commander and deputy chief of staff were attracted by the continuous battle of the convoy.
"That's right, it's Ding Wei!" said the brigade commander.
"Boss, this is just a batch of bullets. The follow-up bullets are on the way. After unloading these bullets, we will go back and continue pulling!" Ding Wei said with a smile.
Upon hearing this, the boss stopped a soldier who was holding an ammunition box and directed him to open the ammunition box.
Yellow-orange bullets suddenly caught everyone's eyes. They picked up a bullet at random. It had a familiar shape and looked at the primer number. Isn't it the Arisaka rifle bullet?
Could it be true?
A ridiculous idea suddenly came to the boss's mind.
Do you really have a hundred bullets?
The deputy chief of staff and the division commander also reacted and were so excited that they were speechless when they saw those bullets.
With bullets, they have the confidence to fight, and they are not afraid of being chased like rabbits by the enemy!
"Ding Wei, tell me the truth, where did you get these bullets?" the boss said solemnly.
"I just got it from the Japanese arsenal..." Ding Wei said casually.
"Arsenal?" The boss said coldly: "Don't look down on me. You really think I don't know. There is currently no news that a large arsenal has been attacked.
Where did you get the bullets, or did you hide some of them secretly before, or did you get a military factory yourself?"
To be honest, no one believes it.
Ding Wei was a little helpless and could only say: "It's the arsenal in Pingyuan Town."
"Pingyuan County Arsenal?" The Deputy Chief of General Staff frowned slightly.
"I did hear that there was a Japs arsenal there, but because there were many Japs stationed around it, it was a Japanese war zone.
Our local troops have been scattered, and it will be very difficult to capture that town." The division commander said, "How did you fight?
Normally, it is not easy to get to that arsenal, and there is no news at all."
Ding Wei smiled slightly and told the whole story.
Smuggling?
After hearing Ding Wei's method, the boss and others felt a little unbelievable.
Sneak into the enemy-occupied area, dig a hole behind the arsenal, and then steal equipment from under the enemy's nose. Moreover, he stole so much material that the enemy never noticed.
Just like what the brigade commander was thinking before, if they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, they would have thought that Ding Wei was bragging.
"Ding Wei, you are really a fucking genius." The boss pointed at Ding Wei and praised.
