At the new regiment headquarters, Wang Ping did not expect that the Jinsui Army would directly send a lieutenant general to negotiate with him.
"Captain Wang, I am here to discuss with the Japanese on the orders of the commander of the theater to replenish equipment and ammunition for your army and issue pensions. Commander Wang, please report to your superiors immediately and have someone come and contact me!"
"It would be best for you, Brigadier Chen, to come over!"
Wang Ping shook his head and replied: "No need, I have the final say on this matter!"
Commander Zhang glanced at Wang Ping in surprise, and then showed a shocked expression on his face.
In his impression, the Eighth Route Army had countless regimental commanders like Wang Ping, and the equipment of several million yuan and two main divisions was by no means a small amount for the Eighth Route Army.
He was very surprised that a group leader could make the decision on such an important matter.
At the same time, he also realized that the young and somewhat intimidating group leader in front of him was by no means as simple as he seemed on the surface.
Commander Zhang took a deep breath, suppressed the shock in his heart, and answered calmly.
"In that case, let's get started!"
"As far as I know, in the Battle of Linfen, only the New Regiment of your army participated in the battle!"
"According to the establishment of the new regiment given to you by the National Government, even if the new regiment reaches full strength and strengthens the regiment, the total strength will only be 3,500 men!"
"So, when it comes to disbursing pensions, the war zone only recognizes regular military establishments and will fight as many people as there are!"
"This can also avoid cheating, what do you think, Commander Wang?"
Wang Ping replied with a smile on his face: "I agree with the pension payment based on the establishment, but our brigade headquarters did send troops to participate in the battle in Linfen!"
"In order to help our new regiment defend Linfen City, the brigade headquarters sent two main regiments five days ago!"
Commander Zhang seemed to have expected Wang Ping to say this, and then said: "Even if those two regiments are included, the total strength of the three regiments should not exceed 8,000 people!"
"The theater sympathizes with the hard work of your Eighth Route Army and has decided that regardless of whether the three main regiments participating in the battle are completely destroyed, the pensions will be calculated as if the entire army was destroyed!"
"The war zone has already calculated it. According to the pension standards for officers at all levels, the war zone has distributed a total of 965,600 yuan in cash. I will give it to you directly as 970,000 yuan! I don't know if Commander Wang agrees with this calculation. If so, we will make this point
It’s settled!”
Wang Ping looked calm and said nothing, but he was sneering in his heart.
At first, I was still thinking about how Jin Suijun planned to bargain with me.
Now I finally understand, it’s the same old thing again, talking about organization.
You must know that since the beginning of the Anti-Japanese War, the establishment has been a loophole for the Eighth Route Army's continuous development and growth. In the past few years, whether in Chongqing or in the war zone, the establishment has been used more than once to suppress and restrict the development and growth of the Eighth Route Army.
Fortunately, Wang Ping was prepared and ordered successfully to the clock next to him.
"Chief of Staff, get the list of all the cadres and soldiers of our three regiments who died this time!"
"There is also a roster of injured soldiers. Since the war zone has to issue pensions based on the roster, we will calculate them one by one!"
After just flipping through a few pages of the list of results for Lieutenant General, I was shocked by the numbers above.
He frowned and exclaimed: "Impossible! There are only 8,000 people in the three regiments at full strength. How can it be possible to directly sacrifice more than 20,000 people? The full strength of the army is more than twice that!"
"Commander Wang, are you treating the war zone like a fool? I don't believe it. In the two days of the Linfen battle, the three regiments changed their troops several times!"
Wang Ping said smoothly: "Commander Zhang is wise, he is really like this!"
"Our Eighth Route Army has always been behind enemy lines and may fight the Japanese at any time. In order to ensure the combat effectiveness of the army, we have established a large number of new troops based on the main force. Once the main force suffers serious losses, these new soldiers will immediately replenish the troops and ensure combat effectiveness!"
"According to post-war statistics, the main force of the three regiments participating in the battle was indeed less than 8,000 people, but the recruits brought by the three regiments exceeded 20,000!"
"When the main force is fighting, these new troops continue to replenish the troops and ensure the combat effectiveness of the troops."
"Otherwise, how could three regiments with less than 8,000 men defend Linfen City when the Japanese attacked, and also kill them!"
"Since these troops are new recruits under the three regiments, and they did join the main force during the battle, and participated in the battle, they must be members of the three main regiments!"
"We cannot let the blood of heroes be shed in vain, don't you think so, Commander Zhang?"
"If I remember correctly, in the whole battle, the New Regiment's three consecutive battles were the most brutal and suffered the most casualties!"
"The company commander manages three, and now there is a deputy platoon commander who also serves as the company commander."
"Before the war, there were more than 180 people in the company, but in the end less than ten people survived. More importantly, during the battle, the regiment headquarters added 500 new recruits to them."
"When the battle is over, there will be more than 680 people left including the new recruits, and there will be more than 80 people left~"
"One company lost more than 600 people, let alone three regiments of troops participating in the battle?"
With the roster in black and white in his hand and Wang Ping's explanation, Commander Zhang, a military commander, really couldn't find a reason to refute.
Especially Wang Ping's words that the soldiers' blood should not be shed in vain, made him speechless.
After a long sigh, he replied: "Commander Wang, even if these rosters are true, I tell you the truth, the war zone cannot afford so much money!"
"There are hundreds of thousands of troops to support in the war zone. We can give up to 1.2 million oceans as compensation for the sacrificed soldiers' pensions to your army!"
"I hope your army can also take a step back. After all, we are all friendly forces. You must also understand the difficulties in the war zone.
After Wang Ping hesitated for a few seconds, he pretended to be in pain and replied: "Those pensions are paid for by the soldiers with their blood and lives. I cannot have the final say alone!"
"We also know that there are difficulties in the war zone. In this way, we seized a lot of Japanese yen and Japanese yen from the Kato division that we killed. It was worth one million Japanese yen. We used all these Japanese yen and Japanese yen as pensions for the sacrifices.
soldiers."
"In this case, the war zone only needs to give us a pension of two million oceans!"
"However, we have a request - we cannot spend the Japanese yen captured from the Japanese. There are many roads in the war zone. We hope that the war zone can help us exchange these yen into the ocean.
A total of 800,000 oceans!""
You can exchange money, but two million oceans is still too much! Commander Zhang shook his head and refused.
"At most 1.5 million oceans, I can't even get an extra ocean theater!"
Wang Ping also had a serious look on his face and answered very definitely: "I will give another 200,000 yuan, 1.8 million yuan, no less, otherwise we will not be able to continue talking!"
"In addition, the 800,000 yuan in exchange for Japanese yen must be given to us together!"
"Okay!" Zhang Jun affirmed with a long sigh of relief.
