Zhou Xiaoshan was still in good spirits after not sleeping much overnight.

In this era, information was underdeveloped.

My old comrade hasn't seen him for two or three years, and it seems like he is a different life.

When Feng Tiankui was still here, Huang Yumin, Fan Ming and Zhou Xiaoshan were just nodding, but now the eyes they looked at were like elders.

Fan Shaozeng kept smiling, and Zhou Xiaoshan even remembered the scene of him treating him to a meal in Wuhan.

Luo Jialie never found the opportunity to chat with Zhou Xiaoshan alone.

Soon after dawn, Stilwell didn't even eat breakfast and came here.

Everyone knows that China's battlefield is difficult, but Stilwell did not expect it to be so difficult.

How powerful was the 88th Army when it was in the Battle of Taihu Lake? Now dozens of artillery are still there, and there are no shells from a Japanese 75 mountain cannon.

On average, the entire army had less than ten bullets per capita.

Fan Shaozeng couldn't find a place to buy it with the money.

Tang Shizun is better than Fan Shaozeng. The old guns were replaced by overseas aid guns, and the average person was no more than fifteen bullets. He had only the mortar regiment.

However, the 66th Army has reserved a batch of ammunition, and even this batch of ammunition will be cut off after the attack.

As for the Central Army, even the direct lineages vary greatly. The 74th Army in the Ninth War Zone was in the best situation, and they basically didn't worry about ammunition when fighting.

Even Shangguan Yunxiang's 32nd Army was jealous of this.

Other non-directly-owned Central Army were not as good as Tang Shizun and Fan Shaozeng’s equipment, and their ammunition reserves were also pitifully small.

How to fight this?

"Zhou, did you intentionally, as the head of the Allied Army Lease Act, you deliberately let me know the lack of guns on the battlefield in China?"

Zhou Xiaoshan grinned.

He knew that until, if Stilwell wanted the reserve data for bullets, no one would understand the truth to him.

Moreover, the battle between Zhejiang and Jiangxi is imminent.

If the generals are anxious to hold a meeting, I am afraid that Gu Zhutong and Chen Cheng will launch their troops to find Stilwell to ask for ammunition.

A meeting of the deployment of a battle will evolve into a scene of ordnance and ammunition being asked for.

"General Stilwell, facing the Japanese who are fully industrialized, the Chinese nation showed a very heroic atmosphere in the fight. Since the July 7th Incident, the Battle of Nankou, the Battle of Shanghai, the Battle of Southern Shandong, and the Battle of Wuhan, there is almost no war, and there will be no hand-to-hand combat. Do you think our soldiers are stupid enough to rush up with submachine guns? No, they only have a little arms and ammunition. When they are out of ammunition and food, they can only pick up bayonets and rush towards the enemy in the rain of bullets."

Stilwell was a little silent. He didn't know if Congress's policy of first Europe and then Asia was wrong. Faced with the serious lack of military ordnance on the Chinese battlefield, how should we deal with the next war? Moreover, Congress's determination that China's battlefield cannot be reversed is also different from the timing. Judging from the results of the expeditionary force, it is not that the Chinese army cannot fight, but they are too poor!

"The overlord in the Pacific is still a Japanese. Even if I apply for two divisions of weapons, I can't transport it!"

"General Stilwell, if you want to command this war, you don't need weapons, you just need to provide us with enough ammunition!"

"Week, even if I write the report immediately and Congress passes the report, transportation will take time!"

"We can win this war with two million rounds. If you can promise to transfer two million rounds of bullets, and then let the Military Commission be assigned two million rounds. I believe that the generals of the Chinese army will be happy to obey your command!"

"Week, time is too urgent. I am not a God. Where should I do it?"

"Where is the British? Impal, borrowing him two million yuan will not affect the war in Myanmar. Then he promised to arrive in some equipment within one year and wanted the chairman to communicate! The war took place in China, and he was the biggest beneficiary. Some Chinese soldiers were passionate soldiers. His biggest worry was that the weapons were finished and there was no place to repair them."

"Is two million plus two million enough?"

"In order to prepare for a counterattack, the 66th Army has some reserves, so I am going to take them out and distribute them to the Sichuan Army! What is important now is the Central Army!"

Stilwell was considering whether the British would lend them to him and how he would convince Congress to mobilize ammunition to return as soon as possible.

He was also considering that if only the ammunition to support the National Government would not affect the strategy of first Europe and then Asia. The 7.9 bullet was not only used by the Germans, but also by some factories with strong rice grains.

"I'll give it a try. If it succeeds, you have to convince Chennard and the Sichuan Army to fly and dispatch all the bombers and transport aircraft to transport!"

Stilwell as a foreigner.

Just because it was sent by the Allies, it was a very nonsense to command the Chinese army to fight.

The reason why Chen Cheng recommended him to come was that Jiang agreed.

More probably let him see the actual difficulties of the national army and facilitate support for military ordnance.

To put it bluntly, everything is easy to say when he can talk about weapons in this battle.

If he can't, let alone command and deployment, he will be unable to move forward in the third zone.

Even if he appointed the 66th Army of the Sichuan Army as the governor's team, dispatched some officers of the Sichuan Army to various troops to supervise the battle situation, and they had no ammunition, could you force the army to charge with bayonets?

Stilwell went to contact the ammunition.

Zhou Xiaoshan is also going to see Luo Jialie.

In Zhou Xiaoshan's view, whether it is Gu Zhutong or Xue Yue, they all hope to push the Sichuan army to the front line to fight.

As Stilwell's special assistant, he was a target of being concentrated by the Central Army generals.

And the 66th Army wants to avoid this mutual shirking.

The best way is to avoid disasters if you lose money.

The same National Revolutionary Army should also accept supplies from the Ministry of Military Affairs. If you want to use one million bullets to fight the Japanese?

Luo Jialie was always anxious and wanted to remind Zhou Xiaoshan.

If Stilwell can't take out the arms and ammunition in his hand, he will not think about commanding and deploying this battle.

After listening to Zhou Xiaoshan’s request, he said without hesitation.

"Xiaoshan, we have also reserved five million bullets. Not to mention one million, two million can be used to support friendly forces. The key is that good steel must be used on the blade. At the same time, this batch of ammunition is used. You need to give me some ideas to make up for it!"

If you have ammunition in your hand, you won’t feel panic. Of course, Zhou Xiaoshan can understand Luo Jialie’s consideration.

"In half a year, Australia has started production, and many overseas Chinese in Southeast Asia are taking hedges in southern Australia! There is no problem with production capacity and no problem with transportation."

"This battle is really important?"

"Yes, the Japanese have expanded to the limit and need to use troops everywhere. Although they are not strong enough this time, they have to forcibly attack our airport group near Zhejiang. To put it bluntly, the local area is so anxious that they were bombed! And they have already told us the target of the attack that this kind of battle is the best to fight!"

Luo Jialie also laughed.

Yes, I haven't fought such a battle with the Japanese clearly intended for a long time.

Follow the direction of the Japanese army, arrange defenses around the line attacking the airport and set up traps.

Unfortunately, the Central Army, which was low morale, conflicted, and uneven combat power, was replaced by the 18th Army, which had a firm fighting will and dared to sacrifice.

This will be a feast.
