After some bargaining between the two parties, six boxes of cans were finally sold for the price of four bullets. Before leaving, Zhang Yunfei threw a box of cigarettes to him.

Mr. Wu smiled and took the flue: "What, you want to bribe me."

"If I wanted to bribe, I wouldn't just take it out now. By the way, I also seized some rice, dried meat, dried meat, dried vegetables, seasonings and other things. I guess I can't get anything in exchange for this stingy old guy like you. I'll have someone give it to you later.

You send it over."

"Come on, it seems that you have gained quite a lot this time." He was naturally happy for such a good thing that he could only get in but not get out, and his smile became much brighter.

Zhang Yunfei left the Supply Department with a cold face, his heart heavy. The Supply Department was in charge of the logistics affairs of the entire regiment. It was no exaggeration to say that it was the fattest job. In many armies, even the most honest officers would put themselves in such positions.

It is not a problem to raise a fat head, big ears, shiny red face.

However, a person like Wu Laoji who is good at calculation has made himself malnourished. You have to admire such a person sincerely. Only a person like him who is snobbish in words and selfless in heart can manage this independent group that is extremely short of supplies.

Allow the independent regiment's logistics unit to operate normally.

The Japanese raids started inexplicably, and ended even more inexplicably. Some villagers who were unwilling to evacuate were brutally massacred. The surrounding villages were basically bulldozed, and everything that could be destroyed was destroyed. Even the stone mills used by the common people were blown up.

A big tree in front of Hezhuang Village was also blown down. The most indispensable thing in the mountains is stones and trees. There is no use in blowing up those things. This is a bit crazy.

Not only did the Independent Group feel that these Japs were crazy, but Captain Arai, who returned to Wanjiaji, also felt that his captain had a hole in his head. He was already mentally prepared to be scolded. After all, he had made many mistakes this time.

, missed the assembly time, got lost in the mountains, and retreated early. After all, I felt chilly. I was ready to be invited to have tea by the military police, but what I waited for in the end was a piece of commendation. This is such a fucking thing.

It's a bit incomprehensible.

In fact, he did not understand the intention of this battle. Although it was nominally a retaliatory action, Major Matsumura actually had his own considerations. His intention was to let these veteran soldiers move and increase their killing value.

The soldiers under his command are said to be retired veterans, but this old man is actually just in age. The average age is several years older than him. Basically, they served after World War I and have never been on the battlefield at all. In fact, they are a group of people with serious physical conditions.

Falling old rookie.

This time, they happened to go into the mountains to run more and exercise to lose weight, and kill people and see blood. Only soldiers who have seen blood are truly qualified warriors of the empire. He doesn't want to see a whole brigade of his troops being destroyed by others again.

The two groups stood in the way and did not dare to take an inch further.

As for how many Eighth Route Army were eliminated, it is really secondary. Now the imperial propaganda agency has been promoting the empire's successive victories, but he is a real elite, so he naturally has channels to understand the real situation. It is no longer possible to occupy China in a short period of time, and

The number of casualties among frontline troops has also increased dramatically.

Of course, the most casualties were mid-level and lower-level officers and soldiers. Several of his fellow students from the non-commissioned officer academy had already died in battle. Naturally, they could not compare with top students like himself. It was normal for people with lower military ranks to die quickly, but now he

His military rank was not too high, and he had a sense of crisis.

The search team was crippled not long ago, but this is a lesson learned from the past. Although the captain of the Lieutenant Colonel is not dead, he is already disabled. Before Honshu Island entered China, we were colleagues who worked in the division's left-behind office and were elites in the same circle.

We often drink and chat together, talking about what it will be like to become a division commander or commander in the future.

With this defeat, although he was lucky enough not to lose his life, his dream of being a general was basically over, and whether he could be promoted to colonel in the future was in doubt. This was a living example and a lesson learned from the past, and he is doing nothing now.

As long as you don't make a big mistake and pass through such mediocre qualifications, according to the speed of the empire's military expansion, it is not difficult to become a lieutenant general and division commander.

However, the combat effectiveness of the Matsumura Battalion was really worrying, and they would definitely lose if they encountered a tough challenge. Therefore, he did everything possible to improve the combat effectiveness of the unit, and at the same time, he carefully guarded his defense zone. After a year and a half, he would become a lieutenant colonel, and

It is not impossible to become a captain with the rank of Lieutenant Colonel.

He was well-informed and got internal information from the base camp. In the future, especially for second-line divisions like theirs, the most important task is to maintain security and stability in the occupied areas. Therefore, in his defense area, it is natural to eliminate unstable factors in advance. What he faces

The strength of this Eighth Route Army is not very good. As long as it can be blocked in the mountainous area, it is not a threat. If it is really driven away and another ruthless attack comes, it will be asking for trouble. The Eighth Route Army has another advantage. Generally it does not disturb the people, but the bandits will

It's different. This is the biggest cancer that disrupts public order. Therefore, Captain Arai perfectly fulfilled the expected requirements of Matsumura's campaign and eliminated an additional group of bandits. This is the reason why he received the award inexplicably.

Captain Arai was inexplicably awarded, and Zhang Yunfei was also inexplicably awarded by his superiors. The reason was naturally because of the rations he brought back. As a later generation, I really didn't realize how important it was. It was just ordinary food. The taste

It's really not that good, it relies entirely on condiments to enhance the flavor, but for the Eighth Route Army, the importance of this batch of food is different.

What was the food of the Eighth Route Army? Wild vegetable soup, and they didn't even put salt in it. It was thin and bland, except for the green color, which was the same as boiled water. Multigrain steamed buns. When they were cold, chewing them felt like chewing sand in your mouth.

Just this food is sometimes not available. As for nutrition, don’t worry about it, just satisfy your hunger. Such food is naturally very unfriendly to the wounded, and the nutrition cannot keep up. It is good to get rid of the root cause of the disease.

It is common for people to die from complications due to physical weakness, inadequate nutrition, and low immunity.

Now is the war, the number of wounded is increasing, and the food he brought back has been put to great use. It is no exaggeration to say that it is life-saving. What he brought back is staple food such as polished rice biscuits, non-staple food such as meat, dried vegetables, etc.

This is the nutritional supplement that the wounded need most.

Zhang Yunfei felt ashamed again. These things, if placed in the student canteens of later generations, would end up in the trash can, but in this era, they have become the best nutrition.

What is polished rice? It’s just rice. Sorry, the Eighth Route Army didn’t have it, let alone meat. Generally speaking, the wounded can drink some millet porridge and eat some dry food, which is considered a good treatment.

Millets plus rifles are not enough to explain the hardships of the Eighth Route Army. Anyway, according to Zhang Yunfei's opinion, the independent regiment has not yet reached the "well-off" level of Xiaomi plus rifles.

He was a little ashamed. At that time, he did not realize the value of these seized items, so he and others ate a lot of them in the mountains. At that time, he reminded himself and others that the person who took the food seemed to be Li Dayangdou.
