All equipment is in storage, and everything is the same as the list provided by Sam.
Looking at the packed warehouse, the smile on Ding Wei's face never stopped.
"Old Ding, look at what amuses you, you have become rich again this time." Qiu Chan said: "This much equipment is enough for us to expand a few more battalions."
It is the practice of the 28th Brigade that a battalion has more than 2,000 people.
In a sense, there is nothing wrong with Qiu Chan's words.
If this matter were placed on Li Yunlong, Li Yunlong might dare to hide it from the brigade commander and secretly form several troops.
Cook this pot of uncooked rice into cooked rice.
But Ding Wei, whose family was rich and powerful, couldn't bear the trouble at this time and took the initiative to call the brigade commander.
The brigade commander also knew about this, and would sometimes call to inquire. It was not easy for Ding Wei to pull the 28th Regiment into what it is now, and he did not dare to be vague at all.
Thinking about being dismissed from his post, it seems like just yesterday.
The soldiers didn't know what it was. They only knew that someone came to deliver equipment. As for what was delivered, they didn't know.
But seeing his captain smiling so happily, he must not be a simple guy, otherwise he wouldn't be so happy.
Team headquarters.
Ding Wei dialed the brigade commander's phone number honestly.
"Hey, this is the brigade headquarters."
A voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Brigadier, it's me, Ding Wei." Ding Wei said.
"Ding Wei?" The brigade commander was a little surprised: "Why did you remember to call me?"
After a pause, the brigade commander smiled and said: "If you are worried about the academy, there is no problem. The boss has already made a decision and it will go on smoothly."
When the brigade commander saw Ding Wei calling, he thought he was worried that the college would not go smoothly, so he comforted him.
"Brigadier, it's not about this, it's about that business." Ding Wei explained.
"Business?" The brigade commander's voice was a little confused: "What business? What are you doing behind my back?"
The brigade commander didn't react for a while.
"Sam." Ding Wei said: "The business we negotiated with Sam has been concluded. At present, all the equipment has been delivered and I have asked them to take the payment."
"You gave it so quickly?" the brigade commander asked, "How is the goods? Are there any problems?"
Ding Wei smiled and said: "Don't worry, brigade commander, I personally checked a batch. There are no problems, and they are all new!"
"New goods!" The brigade commander's eyes lit up and he asked, "Quick, tell me what's there!"
Ding Wei did not hide anything and reported everything on the list in detail.
"Hey, with so many things, it should cost a lot of money, right?" the brigade commander asked suspiciously.
Ding Wei was silent for a while and said: "It's not much. Sam asked for a friendly price. The price is very low compared to those in the market."
With that said, Ding Wei revealed the price of the transaction between the two parties.
After hearing the price, the brigade commander was a little moved. This was completely a half-meter purchase and a free gift.
"Sam also said that this time it is just a close call. If the transaction goes well, we can continue the transaction." Ding Wei said with a smile.
"He is also very cautious. In order to worry about the leakage of the transaction with us, he even got a few hands."
After a pause, Ding Wei asked again: "Brigade commander, what about these equipments, do you think..."
The brigade commander was silent for a while and said, "I'll leave the equipment with you for now."
"Ah?" Ding Wei was a little surprised.
He originally thought that the brigade commander would take at least half, and even if he didn't take half, he would take away 30 to 40%, but he didn't expect that he would keep it with him temporarily?
Brigadier, what does this mean?
Ding Wei asked cautiously: "Brigadier, what do you mean, leave me here for now, what about me?"
"Just think that I borrowed these equipment from you. When I need them, I will ask you for them again," the brigade commander said.
Ding Wei asked: "Brigadier, according to your wishes, can I use it as I please?"
"Yes." The brigade commander responded with a calm voice, and then said: "But you have to take good care of these equipments for me, so that I don't ruin them."
Ding Wei has seized a lot of equipment recently, and he will hand over the materials according to bill without even having to ask.
During this time, he turned in too much equipment.
As a joke, even if you are trying to pluck sheep, you can't catch a plucked sheep.
What's more, these equipment are closely related to Ding Wei. If it weren't for Ding Wei, he would definitely not be able to get these equipment.
The first time the transaction was successful, it was necessary to rob Ding Wei of his credit. Combined with Ding Wei's previous expression, it just couldn't be justified.
Ding Wei didn't know this because he often turned in his equipment and avoided a chance of being robbed."
"Brigadier, since you said that, I won't be polite." Ding Wei seemed to understand what the brigade commander meant.
"Brigadier, I thank you, Brigadier."
Does this mean that I can use these equipment at will?
If all these equipments are added to one's own team, the strength will be doubled.
"Look at your talent, don't embarrass me!" the brigade commander laughed and scolded: "By the way, you won't be able to use the equipment you replaced, so send it to the brigade headquarters."
"No problem, brigade commander, I will arrange for someone to deliver it to you right away." Ding Wei stepped forward and said.
"Is there anything else? I'll hang up the phone if it's okay. I have to be busy with your college matters," the brigade commander said.
Ding Wei took advantage of the situation and said: "Brigadier, what you said is really one thing. Didn't you say before that the arsenal is short of raw materials?"
"Yes, I did say that." The brigade commander responded casually.
Although a lot of rails were obtained when the railway was blown up, it was far from enough.
Ding Wei said: "Brigadier, I remembered how to get the materials."
"Say." The brigade commander spoke concisely and to the point.
"Mining!" Ding Weidao said: "Brigadier, I am going to attack the Japs' mines. Didn't you say that we lack materials for making weapons and equipment? The Japs' mines will not be short of raw materials."
In the past, there were insufficient equipment and insufficient numbers of people, so fighting was very troublesome, and there was no advantage.
But today is different from the past!
The little devil must be working overtime now, preparing raw materials and manufacturing weapons and equipment.
After all, the enemy's losses in this battle were considerable. How could they sit back and wait for death?
According to the enemy's urine, after losing this battle, they will start preparing for the next battle.
While the Japanese are still recovering, beat them up again.
The little devil must have never imagined that he would dare to beat them after the battle.
"You want to mine, do you have a goal?" the brigade commander asked.
Ding Wei stood up and said, "Yes, there is a small open-pit mine near Li Yunlong's station."
"Li Yunlong's station?" the brigade commander thought for a while.
"Yes, if there is an accident, Li Yunlong will definitely come out to help." Ding Wei said.
"No problem, it's done." The brigade commander said, "But I have only one request. You can only succeed in this operation, not fail!"
"Yes!" Ding Wei stood up and said, "I promise to complete the mission!"
After hanging up the phone, Ding Wei's face was full of excitement. It was time to deal with the little devils in the mine.
"The brigade commander agreed?" Qiu Chan asked.
Ding Wei said: "I agree, we can prepare to take action, but before we take action, we need to find out the situation of the mine first."
"Understood, I'll go down and make arrangements!" Qiu Chan responded and walked down quickly.
Ding Wei was not idle either. He immediately assembled the 2nd Battalion and the 5th Company, preparing them to familiarize themselves with the new equipment before dealing with the little Japs in the mine.
Soldiers are already accustomed to bolt-action rifles. It will definitely not be easy for them to suddenly use semi-automatic weapons.
Before taking action, it is natural to familiarize yourself with the equipment to avoid accidents on the battlefield.
M1 Garand rifle and G43 rifle. After weighing the pros and cons, Ding Wei finally chose the M1 Garand rifle.
There is no other reason.
It can be used to confuse the little devils, making them think that a brand new team has appeared on the battlefield, and it is well-equipped, so that the little devils will be afraid.
If the German weapons are used, the Japanese may suspect that they are the national army, which will not achieve the effect Ding Wei wants.
Otherwise, it’s just passing the blame.
If the mine is suddenly attacked by a well-equipped force, it will definitely be very confusing. After repeated verifications, the first person will definitely be suspicious of Li Yunlong's new group.
Because there are respectable troops nearby, just a new regiment, it would be a pity not to use Lao Li as a shield.
playground.
Five hundred soldiers lined up in a neat queue and looked at Ding Wei with fiery eyes.
In front of them were piles of brand-new equipment and boxes of bullets.
Ding Wei was holding a gun and wiping it carefully.
There's only one thing wrong with a new gun, it's damn hard to apply oil on it.
More than half an hour passed, and Ding Wei was still cleaning his gun.
"Old commander, what kind of gun is this? Why haven't I seen it before?"
Finally, a soldier in the team couldn't hold himself back any longer. He was very curious as he watched Ding Wei cleaning his gun all the time, and it was a gun he had never seen before.
As soon as he opened his mouth, Ding Wei knew that he was a veteran of the team.
"M1 Garand, semi-automatic rifle!"
The gun happened to be polished, and I carefully checked the gun to make sure it was correct.
Ding Wei loaded a few bullets into the magazine, turned on the safety, put the gun on his shoulder, and said with a smile.
"What virtue?"
"What kind of gun is this? It doesn't look like a Japanese 38 gun. Why is there a magazine missing from it?"
"I haven't seen it, I haven't seen it. Where did our leader get the gun?"
…
There was a lot of discussion within the team.
Xu Hu also looked curiously at the gun on Ding Wei's shoulder. As a veteran, he could tell at a glance that this gun was extraordinary.
Ding Wei didn't say anything. He quickly pulled the bolt of the gun and fired several shots to one side. He didn't stop until the bullets in the magazine were empty.
The crowd that was originally talking a lot stopped their discussion and looked stupidly at the gun in Ding Wei's hand.
Xu Hu's eyes lit up, staring at the gun in Ding Wei's hand, unable to move away anymore.
He is someone who has played with submachine guns. How could he not see that this gun only needs to pull the bolt once to continue shooting?
If faced with the Japanese's 38 big cover, whether it is the continuity of firepower or the suppressive power, it will be much higher than that of the small Japanese.
Looking at the stunned people, Ding Wei was very satisfied.
"Want to play?"
"Is it fun?"
"You've never played it, right?"
Ding Wei asked three questions in a row.
Every time a question was asked, the soldiers nodded and looked at the gun in Ding Wei's hand expectantly.
Xu Hu couldn't hold himself back anymore and ran to Ding Wei and asked: "Captain, can you give me this gun to play with?"
"Want to play?" Ding Wei asked.
"If you want to play, just go over there and stand!" Ding Weiwei waved his hand and pointed at the team.
The soldiers looked forward to it.
Ding Wei was indifferent and walked around with his gun. Wherever Ding Wei went, the soldiers would see him.
"Captain, where did you get this gun? Why is it so powerful?" A soldier asked in a loud voice: "How do you keep firing once you pull the bolt?"
"Just...just..." said another soldier who answered.
However, he only followed him for a long time, but he didn't find out why.
"Just like a submachine gun!" Xu Hu said.
"Yes, this gun is a semi-automatic rifle." Ding Wei explained: "Why is it called semi-automatic?"
The soldiers looked like curious babies.
"Because when this gun is fired, you only need to pull the bolt." Ding Wei walked to the equipment pile and grabbed a few bullets.
Insert the magazine, load the chamber, pull the bolt, and shoot!
Bang bang bang bang!
Continuous gunfire sounded one after another.
The soldiers' eyes became even more eager.
"Captain, where did you get such a good gun?" a soldier asked.
"Yes, Captain, where did it come from?"
"Why haven't we seen it before, and I haven't seen you take it out before?"
…
The soldiers raised their inner questions one after another.
"Don't worry about where I got it from, I just want to ask if you want to play!" Ding Wei asked.
"Think!" the soldiers roared in unison.
"If you think about it, get in line and get ready to get the gun!" Ding Wei said with a smile.
"yes!"
The soldiers said excitedly, lined up one after another, picked up their guns and played with them.
"Okay, stop being so stupid." Ding Wei shouted: "Line up and go to the shooting range!"
"yes!"
The soldiers carried ammunition boxes and marched toward the shooting range.
If nothing else goes wrong, they are going to start firing live ammunition. How can the soldiers not be excited?
"Captain, what kind of gun do you think this is?" Xu Hu followed Ding Wei and asked.
"M1 Garand rifle." Ding Wei said.
"Where is the gun here? I have never seen it here, not even in the Central Army?" Xu Hu said.
"Central Army?" Ding Wei snorted coldly: "What do you know, kid? When you joined the army, this gun hadn't come out yet. This is a new weapon. I spent a lot of effort to get it!"
Speaking of this, Ding Wei felt sincerely proud and said: "Did you see, this gun is the only one in the entire northwest of Shanxi, and I only have it!"
Ding Wei is not telling lies. At present, it is true that only Ding Wei has this gun.
Hearing this, Xu Hu looked at Ding Wei with even more admiration.
The team arrived at the shooting range.
The shooting range is a simple shooting range outside the village. The farthest target is about 500 meters, which is enough to train the soldiers.
When Sam sent it, he had already considered that Ding Wei might need to be familiar with firearms.
Therefore, we also prepared a lot of training bullets for Ding Wei. Of course, these bullets are not included in the purchased bullets and are gifts.
How many bullets are there in total?
No matter how wealthy Ding Wei is, he is reluctant to use live ammunition for training. He can only use training ammunition that is not much different from live ammunition.
The number of training bombs is at least twice that of live ammunition, so it doesn't matter if you make them as hard as you like.
The first group was half-kneeling on the ground and loading bullets into the magazine. This loading method made the soldiers a little uncomfortable, especially when inserting the magazine.
Many soldiers are not aligned, or when installing, they insert it several times before installing it.
Seeing this scene, Ding Wei became even more convinced that the pre-war training was indeed correct, otherwise he would definitely suffer a loss if he really encountered the Japanese on the battlefield.
"Everyone, stop!" Ding Wei felt that he couldn't do this anymore.
Learn to walk first, then learn to run. If you don’t know how to load a magazine, why are you using a semi-automatic weapon?
