Double-Cut During the War of Resistance: My Wife Came from 1937

Chapter 79 Can you get your hands on guns and cannons?

"You can bring all the other items, but what about the firearms and ammunition?"

Deputy Division Commander Xu said, "I remember you said that China would completely ban guns in the future, and that the regulations would be very strict. How are you going to bring them over?"

"this……"

Upon hearing this, Xia Weiwei fell silent.

Guns and ammunition will indeed be difficult to obtain in the future.

She thought for a moment and said, "I need to go back and ask Hongwei if I can get any guns or bullets. He should be able to help."

"Then we'll wait for your good news!"

Commander Liu nodded and said, "I hope Hongwei can find a way so that we can quickly organize more soldiers."

For them, the lack was not of soldiers, but of guns and ammunition.

Since they started trading weapons and ammunition with Yan Laoxi using sulfonamides last time, they have begun training new soldiers.

Once the weapons arrive and training is complete, these new recruits will be able to join their ranks.

Xia Weiwei said, "Commander, let's go store the supplies now!"

"good!"

The two responded and walked out of the courtyard with Xia Weiwei, heading towards the edge of the village.

Before long, they arrived near the cave.

From a distance, Xia Weiwei could see some Eighth Route Army soldiers patrolling and standing guard.

They even built defensive fortifications with stones and sandbags near the cave, and set up two precious heavy machine guns there.

It should be noted that the entire Eighth Route Army's three main divisions combined only had 136 heavy machine guns.

The 129th Division had the fewest heavy machine guns, with only 29 heavy machine guns and a total of just over 23000 rounds of ammunition for all of them.

These two heavy machine guns alone account for more than one-fifteenth of the total, a level of heavy firepower that only a main force battalion could be allocated.

This demonstrates the importance the Eighth Route Army placed on these supplies.

"Commander!"

Upon seeing the three people, the Eighth Route Army cadres guarding the area quickly stepped forward and saluted.

Division Commander Liu returned the salute and asked, "Didn't we see anyone suspicious around here?"

"Reporting to the commander, no!"

The official nodded.

"Um!"

Commander Liu nodded and said, "You all stay here and keep watch. We're going to check the warehouse!"

As they spoke, the three of them stepped forward.

Now, a stone wall has been built at the entrance of the cave.

Between the two walls are two spacious wooden gates, which must have been removed from the gate of a landlord's house.

At this moment, the gate was locked, preventing outsiders from entering.

The key to the gate was in the hands of Division Commander Liu and Deputy Division Commander Xu.

Deputy Division Commander Xu took out a key, stepped forward to unlock the door, and pushed it open.

"Creak!"

The door opened, and the room was somewhat dimly lit.

However, since the opening was not completely sealed off, a fair amount of light shone in.

Xia Weiwei saw that most of the cave was empty.

The large amount of supplies that were originally piled up have all been transported away by the 115th and 120th Divisions.

The supplies here are distributed equally, with each division receiving one-third.

Meanwhile, some of the compressed biscuits from the 129th Division were transported to the 385th and 386th Brigades.

Xia Weiwei also noticed that the ground inside the cave had clearly been leveled again.

Wherever there were uneven spots, the protrusions were removed and the depressions were filled in, so the ground was no longer as bumpy as before.

"now!"

With a casual wave of her hand, Xia Weiwei conjured up over 50 tons of compressed biscuits in the cave.

The cave was extremely spacious, and the goods placed inside only took up a small area.

Next, Xia Weiwei took out the Type 10 milk chocolates.

"That's an amazing technique!"

Deputy Division Commander Xu, standing nearby, couldn't help but sigh, "If only our men had storage space, they could just run straight to the Japanese arsenal and loot all the weapons!"

Commander Liu shook his head: "To have even one is already a blessing!"

This tactic is something they simply cannot explain.

"The chocolates have a plastic wrapping on the outside to prevent them from getting wet, but inside there are several layers of cardboard and gold foil."

Xia Weiwei warned, "If a mouse gets in, it might damage them!"

"I don't see a particularly large quantity of these chocolates!"

Commander Liu said, "Why don't we take it back and put it in the landlord's granary?"

"good!"

Xia Weiwei responded, and with a thought, she put all the chocolates into her storage space.

"Oh right, I also need to check the storage space this time, so I can't forget!"

With that in mind, Xia Weiwei extended her senses to the storage space.

Yesterday, Ma Hongwei gave her 64 gold bars, each weighing 100 grams, which she put into her storage space.

Currently, there are only 32 items left in the storage space.

In other words, the number of gold bars required for space upgrades has indeed increased.

Has the area changed?

Xia Weiwei summoned the Time-Space Panel again.

[Bound Host]: Xia Weiwei (Female, 22 years old, born in 1915)

Current time and space: 1937.

[Anchoring Time and Space]: 2026.

Storage space: 144 cubic meters (6 meters long, 6 meters wide, 4 meters high, upgradable)

[Time-Space Teleportation Countdown]: 46:33:45

"144 cubic meters?"

Xia Weiwei couldn't help but exclaim happily, "That's another 24 cubic meters more than before!"

Deputy Division Commander Xu asked, "Comrade Xia, what are you muttering about over there?"

"Sir, our storage space has been upgraded again!"

Xia Weiwei said with a smile, "This time, the storage space can hold 144 cubic meters of supplies."

"However, the amount of gold needed to upgrade storage space is also increasing."

"The last time the space was upgraded, it only required 5 large yellow croakers, which is 16 100-gram gold bars. But now it requires 32 bars, which is twice as many as before."

Upon hearing Xia Weiwei's words, Commander Liu said in a deep voice, "Comrade Xia, the matter of the gold can be resolved in a while."

"The Jiaodong Special Committee that we rebuilt last year is preparing to organize an uprising. When that happens, their insurgent army will be able to seize gold mines from the Japanese invaders and refine them."

"In fact, they have already accumulated quite a lot. Miners from underground organizations can secretly take gold dust and gold nuggets out, but they have no way to transport them here."

"Once we open up this gold transport route, we'll be able to obtain a considerable amount of gold."

"This gold is newly refined, so it can't be considered antique gold. It can be used directly to upgrade storage space."

"With the supplies you purchase from the future world, we won't be afraid of running out of resources. We won't feel bad about using this gold to upgrade our space."
