Everyone took a breath again. The political commissar wanted to punch the third young master in the head. He actually refused such a good thing. What did this second young master think?

It is obvious that no one is as smart as Li Jian. They think it is great to get a batch of cannons. In fact, the Third Young Master felt that the mountain cannons of just one mountain cannon company would not have any effect on his entire detachment, so he simply refused.

To put it bluntly, there are fewer benefits and no matter what you do!

No one figured out such a simple truth, because the Americans supported a battalion of weapons and equipment and a company of artillery, which was indeed a big deal.

But... Master Li San is still not satisfied!

When Custer took out his small cigarette gun and was about to look for the lighter, the third young master handed over one. It was a revolver-shaped lighter, which lit it for him with a snap.

"Young Master Li San is indeed exactly the same as the rumored one. He is worthy of being a businessman's family. This mind is not comparable to that of ordinary people."

"It's too much!"

Faced with Caster's "praise", the third young master disrespectfully accepted it, and he could not hear the meaning of the words at all.

The corners of the people around him twitched. This guy is really... a terrible face!

Others are just saying polite words, but he actually took it seriously!

However, the Chairman had already told him when he came out that Li Jian was extremely cunning, so don’t promise his benefits easily. If there is anything, send a telegram to Chongqing.

Therefore, General Hu did not dare to talk to Li Jian at all, for fear that the other party would cheat him if he had a plan.

The political commissar almost slapped Li Jian in the head. Why did this kid refuse? That's a big benefit. The headquarters is now preparing for the artillery division, and he's always worried about where the artillery comes from. Even if there is a company of mountain cannons, it's okay, it's better than not.

Now this kid actually refused!

"Then let's do it. Give a B-type regiment weapon and equipment, plus a mountain cannon battalion! There can't be more, and I'm afraid I can only take people back with me if there are more."

As soon as Caster said this, Li Jian knew that he had reached the other party's bottom line, so he simply agreed directly.

However, he also has the conditions.

"Can you give me more shells from the Shan Cannon Battalion? This thing will not be replenished after it is finished!"

"Can!"

The artillery shells are very precious. The artillery regiment told Li Jian that artillery without shells is less valuable than scrap iron.

Seeing that Custer was so easy, Li Jian stood up immediately as if he was hello, everyone was fine, and then laughed softly:

"What are you saying? I still have to thank the United States for its assistance. However, we are also friendly forces and have common enemies!

You support a batch of weapons, and we China can help you withstand some of the Japanese on the Asian battlefield. It is normal for everyone to help each other."

The political commissar could hardly stand Li Jian's sinister face, but what he didn't expect was that Li Jian could actually ask for a cannon from a mountain cannon battalion.

The artillery column of their Taiyue Military Region could be pulled up quickly. First of all, they were mountain artillery infantry artillery and mortars, and it would probably be much easier to fight in the future.

I just don’t know if this guy will give up the mountain cannon camp in his hand. It’s a lot of wealth, the kind that even if you have money, you can’t buy it.

"By the way, Lieutenant Colonel Custer, I wonder if you can do me another favor?"

At this time, Li Jian made his request. He also found it strange. What else could he help the other party?

At this time, Yuriko's fingers shook slightly, as if she had thought of something, and she continued to drink tea with a smile on the corner of her mouth.

"Don't you have many arms dealers in the United States? How are you selling weapons and equipment now?

I wonder if I can sell a batch to our Eighth Route Army. I can pay for it. I will help you train so many new recruits. Can I give me some discounts?

After all, it’s not easy for everyone!”

Do business!

For some reason, these three words suddenly popped up in everyone here, and even the political commissar did not understand why Li Jian asked this.

Isn’t the Independent Detachment short of funds? Why is it suddenly rich now?

Could it be that this kid has been cheating on himself?

No, the independent detachment is indeed insufficient funding. Li Jian will tell lies and be fooled, but Zhao Yiyi will never tell lies. There is really not much ocean in their account, otherwise Li Jian, the little Jie, would not cry, would not be poor.

But now he actually wants to buy weapons and equipment from the Americans. He has no cash in hand. How dare he ask this?

The political commissar and Zhao Yiyi both knew Li Jian very well, but they couldn't imagine why Li Jian did this, or what kind of confidence the Independent Detachment now has?

"There is nothing wrong with selling arms to China, but the transportation speed may be very slow, because now only the Yunnan-Burma Highway can transport supplies here.

Moreover, there are often attacks from the Japanese, and there are also a large number of materials in Chongqing that need to be transported, which may take two to three months.

Another problem is that if the order is not too large, I am afraid there will be no arms merchants selling weapons and equipment for you Eighth Route Army.”

Caster's words are very obvious, that is, aren't your Eighth Route Army very poor? Where can I get the money to buy weapons and equipment?

If Li Jian dares to ask this, he naturally has his own confidence. After all, he has hidden some things and can be taken out now.

"I want to buy the weapons and equipment of my detachment. I want to change the weapons and equipment a little more, which are about the weapons and equipment of ten A-type regiments!"

Li Jian has a lot of soldiers in his hands, which is the most well-known. The Chairman often adds a regiment to him, so now that the reserve service is added, it is normal for ten regiments to be organized.

However, all the teams were taken away by other regiments. Tang Ran, who had only one brigade, was hung in the position of a regiment commander, and the rest of the teams were given to the other regiments!

However, there was nothing wrong with him buying weapons to equipment for his detachment, and even the chairman probably dared not object.

You don’t fucking give me weapons and equipment, so why don’t you allow me to buy it yourself?

Therefore, Li Jian made up his mind to buy a batch of weapons and equipment, and he had to buy it with Americans, because there might be discounts there.

"I have a batch of US dollar cash and a batch of gold and silver. I should be able to buy ten groups of weapons and equipment!"

These days, there are only a few things that are hard currency. The first one is gold and silver. This thing has been hard currency since ancient times, and the next is US dollar. The US currency has always been very hard. During World War II, currencies in other countries were depreciating, but the US dollar was appreciation.

So, it is perfect to use it to buy weapons and equipment.
