Chapter 296 Weishan Lake Independent Camp
This time it was Lin Han's turn to touch his nose, and he stammered embarrassedly.
Wang Meng got angry when he saw it and patted his sleeves.
"Lin Han, if you don't tell me, if you don't tell me, I'm going to leave."
Lin Han then became anxious and took a step forward to stand in front of Wang Meng.
"Chief of Staff, I have a personal request. No, just a casual question. If you agree, it's fine. If not, just pretend I didn't say anything!"
Wang Meng chuckled and knew that Lin Han must have something to say to him.
"Tell me, I'll do what I can, and I'll find a way to do what I can't. Do any relatives or friends ask you for help? Don't worry, as long as it meets the employment standards, I'll be the first to agree!"
At this time, Wang Meng still thought that Lin Han was asking him to use the back door to arrange for some relatives or friends to work in the factory.
"No, Chief of Staff!"
"Oh? What's that for? You can't be asking me for an official position, right? That won't do. After all, we are a formal team, not a makeshift team. Whether it's an officer of the independent column or an officer of Jia Gui's side, they all have to pass the exam!"
Looking at Wang Meng's expression, Lin Han was so anxious that he quickly spoke up to speak frankly, otherwise the misunderstanding would probably get bigger and bigger.
"I don't want an official position, I want a gun!"
This frightened Wang Meng so much that he immediately covered his mouth.
"Lin Han, we live in a society ruled by law. If you have any grudges or complaints, you can turn to the government and take legal action. Violence cannot solve problems! Let me find out. Are you being cheated on?"
"What? I don't even have a wife, how can I be cheated on? I'm asking for a gun on behalf of someone else!"
"What? You sell arms?"
Lin Han was completely anxious and quickly told everyone the whole story.
It turned out that it was Lin Han’s old friend, Peng Liang from the Railway Guerrillas of Weishan Lake who made the request to him.
Since their last separation, Peng Liang continued to hang around Weishan Lake, stealing the Japanese's trains and chopping off their heads, and he was having a great time.
But later, the Japanese became more vigilant and strengthened the guard on the military train, so they failed several times, and the supplies became less and less, and they were almost depleted.
Didn't the Japanese threaten to start a cleanup operation? Peng Liang felt uncomfortable looking at the remaining supplies in his hands.
So, he thought of Jia Guier and Pingshun whom he saw in the newspaper, and sent the letter for help to Pingshun Lin Han.
As a result, Lin Han met Wang Meng by chance four or five times.
Lin Han looked at Wang Meng who was gradually becoming petrified and scratched his head embarrassedly.
"Chief of Staff, I know I was too rash. After all, this is your team's business, and I'm just a worker. If it doesn't work, forget it. I'll talk to him!"
After saying this, Lin Han turned around with an apologetic look on his face, ready to find a reason to reject Peng Liang's request.
"Don't go! Is Peng Liang a member of the Railway Guerrillas?"
"Ah? It seems so, but I don't know much about the team!"
Wang Meng's eyes immediately lit up, and now it was his turn to talk nonsense.
"I, Wang Meng, have invested in this project!"
Wang Meng thought happily in his heart, how come he is so lucky that he can meet all kinds of people!
Lin Han looked at Wang Meng in disbelief, somewhat doubting his own ears, and began to ask tentatively.
"Chief of Staff, can we provide support with a dozen rifles? And pistols?"
Wang Meng raised his index finger and waved it left and right in the air.
"No, no, no, a dozen shots are not enough! I will talk to the Lunan Military Sub-district immediately! Ask him to contact me directly!"
Wang Meng immediately contacted Commander Zhang of the Lunan Military Sub-district of the 115th Division in the name of the independent column and began to bargain with him. Finally, the Railway Guerrillas "traded" them for 500 semi-automatic rifles and rounds of ammunition.
"Chief of Staff Wang, if there is such business in the future, remember to tell us and we will continue to cooperate!"
Wang Meng immediately replied with a few words: Let’s talk about it later!
The reason why Wang Meng spent such a huge amount of money was, on the one hand, purely because he was "chasing stars" and wanted to recruit the prototype characters in film and television dramas under his command.
On the other hand, it was indeed out of strategic considerations. After conquering and occupying Shanxi, it was not certain whether to develop towards the northeast or towards Henan and Shandong provinces.
If it really develops towards Shandong Province, it might be like stabbing a sharp knife into the enemy's heart, and it might really have a miraculous effect.
So Wang Meng immediately contacted Peng Liang through various means, expressed his admiration for Peng Liang's talent, and also revealed the details of the "transaction".
In this way, Peng Liang "half-heartedly" became the first battalion commander of the Weishan Lake Independent Battalion of the Southern Shanxi Independent Column.
According to the agreement, Wang Meng provided weapons and ammunition as well as ten key members to help set up the independent battalion. The subsequent development depended entirely on them.
Three days later, two transport planes, escorted by four fighter jets, took off from Pingshun Airport and flew all the way to Weishan Lake.
The transport plane dropper saw three puffs of white smoke from the plane, so he descended and pushed boxes of supplies with parachutes hanging on them out of the cabin door.
Then it circled twice in the air and flew towards Pingshun again.
Peng Liang waved toward the plane in the sky, and then immediately arranged for the soldiers of the independent battalion to collect the supplies floating on parachutes.
Boxes of supplies were transported to Weishan Island on Weishan Lake by small boats.
"Comrades, this is the supplies sent to us by our superior, Commander Li of the Independent Column! You all saw it, it was delivered by plane!"
"Captain, no, Battalion Commander, do our superiors have too many guns and ammunition?"
"Needless to say? Commander Li has spoken. As long as we can kill more devils, we will have plenty of these weapons and ammunition in the future! Open it and take a look!"
At Peng Liang's command, the soldiers opened the wooden boxes one by one.
43 G semi-automatic rifles and rounds of ammunition;
Forty MG32 general-purpose machine guns and one hundred thousand rounds of ammunition.
200 box guns (imitations, specially provided to facilitate their use of train hijacking), 50,000 rounds of ammunition;
50 10mm platoon-level mortars with 300 shells;
81 10mm company mortars, rounds of ammunition;
Three hundred sets of quilts;
Two radios and four walkie-talkies.
Peng Liang looked at the piles of supplies. Even though his heart was filled with turmoil, he still remained calm on the surface and looked at the soldiers who had already dropped their jaws in shock.
"Look at your useless looks, isn't this normal?"
"Captain, do we need so many supplies for more than 20 people?"
"What nonsense are you talking about? Won't our team become stronger? In the future, you will all be at least platoon leaders or company commanders!"
After Peng Liang finished speaking, he moved towards the 81mm mortar, but his legs went weak and he almost stumbled...
"What are you laughing at? You're so tired from standing there...Except for the quilts, don't move the other supplies. Wait for the superiors to send someone to teach us how to use them. Don't be like a poor boy who has never seen the world and rush to dismantle them. You'll make a fool of yourself!"
