Weng Zhaoyuan was shocked when he heard Jiang Li's offer.＠The fifteenth Route Army was so generous. I don't know how much wealth Zhang Xueliang had saved in the Northeast. Weng Zhaoyuan had mostly the same idea as others. If it were not for Zhang Xueliang's savings in Fengtian, Jiang Li was just a small battalion commander before, and even if there was no soldier in the entire battalion for a lifetime, how much time would he eat? However, the comparison was obvious that Zhang Xueliang's wealth was almost thrown to the Japanese and had never thought about doing some practical things before, but Jiang Li used this money to lay these industrial foundations in Gansu and formed an army to invest on the battlefield against Japan. This was also the reason why Weng Zhaoyuan chose to come to the 15th Route Army. If Jiang Li also invested these precious resources on the Suppression of the Communist Party like Nanjing, Weng Zhaoyuan would not have come.

"When will the output of this kind of transportation truck be provided?" Jiang Li looked at Yang Ming, the car manager next to him and asked.

"Now, 16 vehicles are produced per month, mainly relying on the first batch of engines purchased from the United States. In addition, Lanzhou's self-produced engines have been debugged. When their production capacity is provided, the Beizhi side will be fast. You can get about 127 vehicles next month, and 80 trucks can be produced. With the fact that there is still some time left, Beizhi organizes workers to give lectures and train them in turn every day. Now a technician has to lead several technicians, and no matter how fast it is, it will be impossible to ensure quality." Yang Ming said.

"Well, the production process has been simplified, but it cannot affect its overall performance." Jiang Li nodded. There is no need to be too anxious about this. It has been less than a year since the construction of the factory and there is still a long way to transport it. It is good to be able to make a car now. However, it takes two years to build a car factory. It is not too exaggerated to produce a transport truck of about 1,000 trucks. After all, Jiang Li's efforts to put it into this are beyond imagination. If it weren't for the economic crisis, it would have been so easy to reorganize the car factory, tractor factory, and engine factory.

"With these trucks, plus the road-rolling and road-building machinery purchased from the United States, the speed of building roads behind should be much faster. But you should also hurry up. One tank and armored vehicle will be removed for you, and there are detailed production drawings. If the tank cannot be made, don't blame me for hitting the board at that time." Jiang Li put his hand on the front of the truck, sighed, and looked at Tang Shijian, who was responsible for tank research and development and production.

"According to the same method, the tank can be produced. However, it may take a little longer. The transport truck is fine. It is easy for technicians to hire some, but it is difficult for technicians to build tanks. The experience in this area in the Republic of China is equal to zero. One or two technicians sent by Vickers cannot solve all the problems, including tank engines, vehicle-mounted radio stations, tracks, and vehicle-mounted artillery problems." Tang Shijian said with a wry smile. "It would be great if we could invite some British, French vehicles, or German technicians."

"I would have asked for a technician so well, and it would be Britain, France, Germany..." Jiang Li shook his head helplessly, but when he talked about Germany, he suddenly shone like a ray of light across his head. Jiang Li seemed to be electrocuted and said in surprise, "I have it!"

"What's there?" Tang Shijian and Weng Zhaoyuan both looked at Jiang Li in confusion and asked.

"I have some ideas, but I haven't even finished it yet. You can continue to follow up on the development of tanks. As for foreign technicians, I will think of ways to see if I can get it through." Germany may be able to think of ways, but it may not be possible. Calculate the time, Hitler should be on stage soon, but it hasn't been on stage yet. As long as you are willing to burn money, there is still a glimmer of hope.

Lanzhou is still studying tank production, and it seems that it is still a little bit obvious. Weng Zhaoyuan thought that there were enough surprises today, but after knowing the lineup of the 1st Army on this expedition, Weng Zhaoyuan found that he had never known the 15th Army. Originally, Weng Zhaoyuan thought that Zhang Zhibang's 2nd Division had at most twice as many troops than the 2nd Brigade, and the organization of another 18 artillery battalions would reach the top. After all, even the German-Armed Division in Nanjing only had a 12-door artillery battalion. But I learned that

The first army actually equipped an additional 36-door heavy artillery regiment, and Weng Zhaoyuan's mouth never closed. In addition to an air defense company in the division headquarters, the military headquarters also equipped one. One third of the air defense forces of the entire 15th Route Army were equipped with the temporary first army. Half of the heavy artillery were transferred. The air force exceeded 80%. Fighters and bombers together reached an astonishing 52. Such elite power was a little stronger than the joint force between Nanjing and the 19th Route Army in the Battle of Shanghai.

From this we can see that Jiang Li spared no effort in the anti-Japanese war, not like some newspapers in Nanjing deliberately belittled. When the 2nd Brigade was temporarily organized and more than 5,300 soldiers of the 2nd Brigade were on the journey, Weng Zhaoyuan felt an unprecedented confidence in his heart. In the war against Shanghai, the 19th Route Army, whether it was military, replenishing troops, or supply of guns and ammunition, would be choked by Nanjing. Even with Zhang Zhizhong's extremely elite 5th Army, it was much inferior to the Japanese army. When Jiang Wenhao arrived in Shanghai, Weng Zhaoyuan fought side by side with the 4th Brigade.

The equipment of the Mixed Fourth Brigade was extremely jealous. At this time, the temporary 2nd Brigade led by him was slightly inferior to the 78th Division, but its combat power was a little stronger. Whether it was the artillery battalion, flat-fire cannon, heavy mortar and battalion-level 82mm mortar, the combined firepower was far greater than that of the 78th Division. What's more, there was an unprecedented air defense company, 12.7mm air defense machine guns, and 4 20mm machine guns. In terms of technical troops, compared with Nanjing, which pays more attention to the number of numbers, the equipment of the 15th Army was small in front, but this advanced consciousness was not comparable to that of Nanjing at this time. It was a pity that Liu Zhanxiong did not come to the 15th Army. Weng Zhaoyuan thought so. However, troops like the temporary 15th Army could only gather one such team, and there was no way to add a second one.

The Lanzhou people, students, gentry, Weng Zhaoyuan passed through the spacious cement streets with other soldiers. Before going to the expedition, Weng Zhaoyuan could feel that Lanzhou's overwhelming propaganda about the anti-Japanese war was different from Nanjing's concealment and the concerted efforts to suppress the whole country. At this time, the people of Lanzhou were all focused on the army of the Eastern Expedition. Looking at the people, the students' expectant eyes, and Jiang Li, Shao Lizi and other military and political officials personally saw him off. Weng was sitting on the horse's back
