Chapter 126 College students, this penicillin is really valuable, more expensive than gold! 3-charac
Lin Zhenhua did not expect that the production efficiency of the rocket production workshop has increased so much. It has increased by 25% compared to before, which is not a small number. He quickly praised: "Li Gousheng, your rocket production workshop has made a great contribution this time. I will remember your contribution in my heart. After I meet the head of the regiment, I will report your contribution."
"I brought you two boxes of canned beef and two boxes of canned fish this time. Eat as much as you want. Don't be stingy. If it's not enough, I'll give you more!"
"Thank you, captain. The soldiers' food is very good. They can eat meat every two days and they are full every meal. This life is better than when I was a company commander of the puppet army. If I could live like this every day, my life would be worth it!" Li Gousheng said with a sigh.
Ignoring Li Gousheng's sighs, Lin Zhenhua turned his gaze to Zhao Tiezhu and asked about the rocket reserves.
"Zhao Tiezhu, including the rockets we produced in Lijiazhuang before, how many do we have left in stock now?"
Zhao Tiezhu knew the number of rockets by heart and answered without hesitation: "Captain, we currently have 80 82mm rockets, 105 60mm rockets, and 150 12mm rockets in stock. We are still halfway to your minimum requirement of 300 rockets, but we are confident that we can produce the remaining rockets within three months!"
Lin Zhenhua did not expect that the gap in rockets would be so big, which made him feel a strong sense of urgency. Accompanied by Zhao Tiezhu and Li Gousheng, he took two tours of the rocket production workshop and the gunpowder production workshop, and he actually found a way to increase the production of rockets.
"Li Gousheng, you don't need to worry about the production of gunpowder columns. Focus on producing rocket shells. Increase the production to three per day and 80 per month!"
"Zhao Tiezhu, the production of gunpowder columns is entirely your responsibility. I have brought two sets of my latest improved gunpowder column production equipment this time. I will show you how to familiarize yourself with it tomorrow. It can shorten the current production time of gunpowder columns by half, and greatly increase the production capacity of rockets!"
Lin Zhenhua stayed in Huangyaling for five days before rushing back to Zhaojiayu, where the independent regiment's headquarters was located. He happened to meet Li Yunlong who was returning with food. Seeing Li Yunlong's exhausted appearance, Lin Zhenhua took the initiative to greet him and said, "Old Li, I see you brought back a lot of food this time. You must have made a lot of money this time!"
Li Yunlong saw that it was Lin Zhenhua, and he answered with a smile: "College student, this is the food from three transactions. I brought it back at once. It is enough for everyone in our independent regiment to eat for three months. Now we can let the soldiers eat to their heart's content, and we don't have to worry about food anymore!"
Lin Zhenhua knew many of the hidden stories involved. He exchanged a few simple greetings with Li Yunlong and helped him to arrange the food. Then the two of them rushed back to the regiment headquarters together, where they happened to meet Zhao Gang, who looked anxious.
Zhao Gang has been worrying about food these days. Now the independent regiment only has half a month's worth of pure grain, and this is what's left by living frugally. Li Yunlong has been gone for more than ten days, and if he doesn't come back, he will have to lead his troops to attack the Japanese strongholds and find a way to seize some food.
When Zhao Gang saw Li Yunlong and Lin Zhenhua, he asked anxiously, "Old Li, have you brought back the food?"
Li Yunlong didn't dare to joke at this time, and quickly replied: "Old Zhao, the food has been brought back and sent to the warehouse. The food crisis of our independent regiment has been resolved. From today on, the soldiers can eat as much as they want and no longer have to worry about food problems."
Hearing Li Yunlong say that the grain had been stored, Zhao Gang hurriedly poured water for the two men and asked in detail: "Old Li, you should have returned five days ago. Why did you delay for so long on the way? Did something go wrong?"
Li Yunlong picked up the tea bowl on the table, drank the water in the bowl, and said happily: "Lao Zhao, there really is a little change in the middle, but it is a good change. Nakamura Ichiro, who was connected by Lao Xu, made me wait for two more days in order to verify the effect of penicillin. I also made a new request and exchanged all the money for food! Unexpectedly, Nakamura Ichiro agreed directly and even prepaid the full amount for the next payment, which I also asked to exchange for food!"
"Plus, Chu Yunfei was also very generous and shipped the grain for the next two months of trading in advance. This time I brought back more than 30 kilograms of grain."
"This penicillin is damn valuable. One gram can be exchanged for thousands of kilograms of food. Our penicillin is about 10 grams, which can't be exchanged for tens of thousands of kilograms of food. 45 penicillin bottles in three months can be exchanged for more than 40 kilograms of food, which is enough for our independent regiment to eat well!"
"A college student told me before that gold has a price but medicine is priceless. I sneered at it, but I was soon taught a lesson. Even Lao Xu got in touch with Ichiro Nakamura with the help of the penicillin I gave him. With Ichiro Nakamura as our backer, our intelligence work will be much easier than before!" Li Yunlong couldn't help but sigh and gave Lin Zhenhua a thumbs up.
After listening to Li Yunlong's narration, Lin Zhenhua did not feel very happy, but became more worried. There was a problem with the production of penicillin. After his many improvements, the output is now only half of the previous one. Now the monthly output is barely enough for trading. These two material channels that have been opened with great difficulty must not have any problems, otherwise it will be a huge blow to the current independent regiment.
"Lao Li, Lao Zhao, the production of penicillin has dropped significantly these days. This is probably related to the iteration of the bacterial colony. I'm already looking for new bacterial colonies and expect the previous production to be restored in two months."
"We now have 60 vials of penicillin. We can no longer use them lavishly as before. They are not to be used on anyone other than the seriously injured. I have already explained this to Doctor Wang Xuecheng!"
Zhao Gang continued, "College student, Lao Li and I are both laymen when it comes to medicines. Your advice is very professional, so let's do as you say! As long as our independent regiment's food crisis is resolved, the training of the troops can be quickly launched. In three months at most, our independent regiment will be able to fully restore its combat effectiveness, and even be stronger than before."
Lin Zhenhua agreed with this very much. He said carefully: "There is no big problem with the rocket production workshop. The current production capacity has increased by 50% compared to before. This matter must be kept confidential. Apart from the three of us, no more people can know about it!"
Li Yunlong quickly interrupted and said, "College student, let's talk about this matter when we get back to your residence. I'll let the monk and Duan Peng be in charge of the alert, and then we can talk about this matter in detail!"
The three of them put forward their own opinions on the problems existing in the arsenal in the headquarters. Due to the sudden heavy snow, the installation of the hydroelectric generator was delayed. Considering that the hydroelectric generator is greatly restricted by the river, Lin Zhenhua is considering whether to install the thermal power generator, but there are many difficulties at the moment, so he will wait until the conditions are better before installing it.
Yuelai Restaurant in Ping'an County.
Ichiro Nakamura came to Yuelai Restaurant for dinner, and Manager Xu immediately arranged an elegant private room on the top floor. After all the dishes were served, Ichiro Nakamura made a gesture, and Xu Zhongyi immediately understood. He looked at the door, and after confirming that there was no one there, he closed the door of the private room.
"Manager Xu, please read the contents of this note carefully. Our previous transaction has been temporarily terminated. You only need to hand over all the goods to me within half a month, and I will not report you to the military police! I will stay in Ping'an County for at most half a month. If I can't get the goods, the consequences will be unbearable for you! This time I am taking a huge risk to inform you of this matter, and you must clean up the mess. Do you understand?"
Xu Zhongyi didn't know what had happened, but he was sure it was related to Li Yunlong's independent regiment. He had seen the note handed over by Nakamura Ichiro. After reading the contents, he was horrified, but he quickly covered it up and promised solemnly: "Mr. Nakamura, I really didn't know about this matter. I will handle this matter thoroughly and will definitely get the remaining goods. I will never let you suffer any loss!"
"Manager Xu, I don't need you to accompany me here. Let's deal with this matter first!" Ichiro Nakamura waved his hand.
"Mr. Nakamura, enjoy your meal. I'll be leaving you now!" Shopkeeper Xu left the box and returned to the backyard of the restaurant as usual. He wrote down the contents of the note he had just seen on a piece of paper, then passed through the tunnel under the restaurant and entered an ordinary small courtyard in Houjie.
"Li Yufei, contact Li Yunlong's independent regiment immediately and send the contents of the note to him. Tell Li Yunlong that he must deliver the things within ten days. This is not a negotiation with him, this is an order!"
Li Yufei took the note, turned on the radio, and sent out the numbers on it. The radio station of the independent regiment received the information at the first time, and the telegraph operator immediately recorded the numbers and hurried to the regiment headquarters.
"Political Commissar, Regiment Commander, College Student, Lone Eagle sent an urgent telegram. I ran over here as soon as I received it!"
Li Yunlong immediately stopped talking and took the telegram. Zhao Gang had already found the code book and started translating according to the numbers on it. It took five minutes to translate the contents of the telegram.
"Old Li, the situation is very serious. The Japanese have mobilized a brigade and two regiments to attack our independent regiment. They have already completed the mobilization and are expected to reach our independent regiment's defense zone in half a month. The situation is very serious!"
Li Yunlong took the telegram from Zhao Gang and read it carefully. He put away his previous playful smile and his face became very serious. After reading the telegram, he handed it to Lin Zhenhua. Lin Zhenhua read the telegram and translated it again by comparing it with the code book. After confirming that the information was correct, he sighed with regret.
"Lao Li, Lao Zhao, my previous worries have come true. The impact of that Zero fighter is too great. That's why I didn't want to bring it back. It's like a time bomb. If things go wrong, our independent regiment will be killed!"
