Everyone next to him looked straight, unable to believe that a general had fought for half a sweet potato. Zhao Gang felt a little embarrassed and coughed twice and asked Hei Niu: "Where did I just talk about it?"

"You are pressing down, can you still talk?" Zhan Tianyou couldn't see it and said.

After this episode, Zhao Gang simply took out all the sweet potatoes and ate them whoever loves them. Of course, Zhao Gang first took a big one and said while eating:

"What's more, our army has no logistics support agency to adapt to modern wars at all, which has caused great chaos on the battlefield. Frontline troops may have guns but no bullets, or the bullets are not in line with guns. For example, the Martini gun used by our army has four or five types of bullets, and there are 800,000 old bullets from 20 years ago in the manufacturing bureau. They are not sure whether they are integrated or not ineffective. There are 667,000 Mauser guns, of which 475,000 are not integrated. A passage from Anhui Wusheng Zhu Zhao can be said to be a summary of this chaotic situation: 'The cannons include Green, Amsteron, Krupp, Frog cannon, Blooming Fireworks and other species, while the guns have new and old Mauser guns, and the guns have new and old Mauser guns.

Lin Mingdu and the Chinese self-made quick-profit guns are of many names and colors, which are almost unbeatable. Guns and cannons have one kind of ammunition, that is, one kind of method of discharging. Ammunition is wrong, but it is incompatible with guns and cannons, either large or small, long or short, loose or tight, and are not suitable for use. If there are instruments and no tools, etc., there are instruments and no tools. All kinds of guns and guns are often incompatible with guns and bullets when they are in battle. Most of the people who join the army are rough and rough, and cannot identify them one by one. There are one or two old soldiers who are in the army, but they may be mistaken for hand in a hurry, which causes great harm. What's more, there are many types, even if the camp officials are not fully recognized?"

"Tianyou, this problem is very serious. No matter what method is used, you must solve this problem before April."

Zhan Tianyou's mouth was full of sweet potatoes, so he had to take on the task with a wry smile.

Following the aroma of sweet potatoes, Zhao Gang finally found Rudendolf. Without surprise, the Germans were also eating sweet potatoes.

"Ludendorff, how is your army training? Lord Li will come to inspect in May. Can you prepare for four months?"

Ludendorf couldn't understand Chinese, so Liang Dunyan translated it into broken English for him. After listening, Ludendorf answered Zhao Gang in even worse English:

"Zhao, by your order, all the officers and soldiers were trained and bravely, and there were 53,700 people in total. After gathering them, I found that even if the elderly, weak, sick and disabled were included, there were only 32,000 people. All the people who took out smoked smokers could be eliminated, and only more than 3,000 qualified soldiers could be left. God, this is so bad!"

As he spoke, Rudendolf became excited, stood up and walked to the table, and wrote NO on a piece of paper.

"No, Zhao, if I knew that your soldiers were like this, then I would turn around and run away ten thousand nautical miles away. These people are not worthy of such a noble title for soldiers. You must disband these people!"

Zhao Gang shouted at Rudendolf in his equally poor English:

"German, although my new subordinate is not good, as a soldier with a strong sense of honor, which one allows you to roar in front of your boss!"

Ludendolf thought that he had lost his composure, so he was very straightforward and lowered his head:

"Zhao, I'm sorry, I've heard of your heroic deeds. It's not weak to lower your head in the face of outstanding warriors. But if you insist on putting those wastes into my army, please remove me from my post first, that's what I mean."

Zhao Gang felt the same way after hearing this, but if these people were driven out of the barracks and those tens of thousands of people turned into civil unrest, his general would come to an end again. How to place it? Zhao Gang suddenly thought of a special army in the People's Liberation Army - the Engineering Soldier.

"In this way, I will scrape down the unqualified soldiers and form a new military branch, which is specifically responsible for civil engineering and construction, transportation and bridge building, and not participate in the battle. Is this good? My sweet potato hero."

Hearing this, everyone couldn't help laughing, and the dull atmosphere was wiped out.

Zhang Jian thought of another question and asked Zhao Gang

"Zhao Gang, we are all clear about the situation here, and we are not clear about the situation in Japan!"

Zhao Gang was reminded by Zhang Jian and felt that he needed to understand.

"Hei Niu, do you know what Japan's preparations are going on?"

Hei Niu said in his heart: "How can I know this? Even if Japan wants to declare war on me, you will tell me."

But he said, "I don't know this, I'll do it right away."

Zhao Gang ordered again: "Go to contact the Russians and see if you can get useful information from them."

Hei Niu didn't believe it and asked, "Ask the Russians to ask for something?"

Zhao Gang nodded: "Yes! As the saying goes, 'onsighters are clear'. The Russians are just bystanders, and they are powerful and scheming bystanders. They must have information from Japanese people. This matter must be done well. The necessary information can be purchased at a high price. It is best to establish a long-term intelligence network. Don't be afraid of spending money. Today we spend a tael of silver, and we will make a thousand times more profitable in the future. In short, the intelligence work for Japan must be completed before June, and Japan's old foundation must be dug out."

Hei Niu hurriedly wrote it down. Zhao Gang asked Zhan Tianyou again:

"Tianyou, please help me estimate how long it will take if 30,000 troops are mobilized to fight a war for a year, how long will it take? In addition, the last time I explained your mission, it has been almost a year. Is there no progress? This is absolutely not possible. You must speed up the pace and stop other development work and transfer it to this work. You can tell me what is missing. In short, you must ensure that the development work is completed before May."

Zhan Tianyou smiled bitterly and accepted the task helplessly.

Seeing that Zhao Gang was almost done, it was like a meeting. Suddenly, he thought of something, and Zhao Gang said to Liang Dunyan:

"Dun Yan, please contact your friends in the United States these two days to see if they have an economic crisis. It is best to count specific numbers. If possible, see if it is possible to get a loan from the United States."

Liang Dunyan was surprised that Zhao Gang actually knew the word economic crisis, and he just responded lightly.

Zhao Gang knew it and stopped asking. Since the sweet potatoes had been eaten, Zhao Gang immediately ended. The first joint meeting of staff started with sweet potatoes and ended with sweet potatoes, so it was later called the sweet potato conference.
Chapter completed!
