Hearing this, the platoon leader Luo Dayong immediately became angry: "What do you mean? When we added that Lian was raised by his stepmother, no, we can't just swallow it like this. We returned to the team after going through all kinds of hardships, so don't say it. It’s fine to have wine and meat to express our condolences, and also withhold our ammunition, I will go to them to discuss the theory.”
Yang Ling grabbed Luo Dayong: "Don't get excited, Dayong. The battalion didn't say they wouldn't give them. They just said that there is a shortage of ammunition and soldiers. Let us figure out how to do it ourselves."
Luo Dayong didn't know, but Yang Ling knew the inside story. Now the National Revolutionary Army has a total of more than 1000 million ammunition in storage. It is really powerless to supply so many troops.
"What can we think of, without providing ammunition or supplementary soldiers, this is clearly raising us as stepmothers." Luo Dayong yelled dissatisfied.
Seeing the yelling Luo Dayong, Yang Ling was also helpless. The current 61st Division is no longer the 61st Division half a month ago. They are really raised by their stepmothers.
The former 61st Division has been downsized into a regiment due to heavy losses, and the division commander has also been dismissed. Now all the regiments of the 61st Division are supplemented from the independent No.20 Brigade. I really didn't pay attention to their supplementary company.
Isn't it just soldiers and weapons and ammunition? Yang Ling really didn't take it to heart. As long as he wants, he can get a lot in a flash.
"Brother Zhou, get some food for the brothers first, everyone is hungry too, I'll go and get some weapons, ammunition and soldiers for our replenishment company." about to leave.
The old smoker stopped Yang Ling: "Why don't we big guys go together, we have a large number of people, and the camp will not sit idly by when there is a disturbance, and will give some points under pressure."
Yang Ling shook his head. It wasn't a question of whether to give or not, but a question of whether or not, so he rejected the old smoker's proposal.
"Don't worry, I promise to get the ammunition and soldiers back."
The old smoker stared at Yang Ling suspiciously and reminded, "Brother Yang, don't dare to rob you. I know you are skilled, but if things get serious, it won't end well."
Yang Ling smiled: "Brother Zhou, just put your heart in your stomach, I will never mess around."
Under the suspicious eyes of the old smoking gun and the remnant soldiers of the supplementary company, Yang Ling and Luo Ziqiang disappeared from their sight.

Yang Ling stepped on the mud and walked towards the back of the team, and Luo Ziqiang followed behind.
"Vice Yang Lian, where are we going to get ammunition and soldiers?" Luo Ziqiang was really confused and couldn't help asking Yang Ling curiously.
Although Luo Ziqiang admired Yang Ling very much, he really couldn't think of where he could get ammunition and soldiers, because everyone was short of ammunition, and every army suffered heavy losses, so they urgently needed to replenish soldiers.
If Yang Ling's military rank is higher, maybe he can rely on his personal connections to get a little bit more. The key is that Yang Ling is only a lieutenant and company deputy. Such low-level officers can catch a lot in the army. No one will buy it.
Yang Ling slowed down, showing a sly smile: "Lao Luo, don't worry, we will definitely be able to get ammunition and soldiers."
Seeing Yang Ling's confident appearance, Luo Ziqiang became even more puzzled, but Yang Ling didn't say anything, and he didn't ask any more. Anyway, we'll see later.
The 61st Division now has two brigades. Their preset position is on the right bank of Yunzaobang, and they are going to stop the little devil from crossing the river. However, they have not yet arrived at the battlefield. past.
The squadron has completely lost its air supremacy, and now the little devil's plane is hovering in the sky every day, constantly bombarding the squadron heading to the front line in depth.
In order to avoid excessive loss of troops, many troops going to the front line will choose to hide during the day and march at night, so as to avoid the bombing of the devils. Of course, this is also a helpless move.
Xiong Dawu, the commander of the [-]rd Battalion and [-]st Company, was sitting on the wet ridge, holding the Wowotou and gnawing on it, the crumbs of the Wowotou covered his mouth.
He caught sight of two people walking up from a distance, and when he took a closer look, the person walking in front was tall and straight, wasn't he the company deputy named Yang Ling who was supplementing the company.
The reason why Xiong Dawu was so impressed with Yang Ling was that apart from Yang Ling wearing the tattered military uniform to look upright, there was another important reason why he knew how Yang Ling came to be the company deputy.
The reason why Yang Ling was able to be promoted to company deputy was that Lao Yanqian took five yuan to the battalion commander in exchange for it. Xiong Dawu also muttered that Lao Yanqian must have lost his brain, so he didn't help him get promoted, but went to help a The outsider was promoted to deputy.
Although this kid seems to have such a heroic spirit, there is no need to waste five oceans, Xiong Dawu secretly shook his head in his heart, although he did not treat each other with admiration for three days, he felt that the old smoker was getting more and more clueless .
But what Xiong Dawu didn't know was that the reason why the old smoker took Dayang to the battalion commander's gang to quietly help Yang Ling to be promoted to the company lieutenant was also for his own little calculation, that is, he hoped that Yang Ling could stay in their company instead of being accepted by the rest of the team. Poach away.
The old smoker has worked in the army for more than ten years. Although he has been a small company commander for many years, his ability to read people is not bad. He knows that Yang Ling is not an ordinary person. He wants to keep Yang Ling, so that their company may Being able to live longer, of course, these are beyond Xiong Dawu's comprehension.
In Xiong Dawu's eyes, it was a loss-making deal for the old smoker to exchange Dayang for Yang Ling's promotion, and that was five Dayang. Thinking about it, Xiong Dawu felt distressed.
Xiong Dawu thought of this, the two of them stuffed the buns into their mouths, patted the mud on their buttocks and stood up. Damn, I want to see what kind of ability this kid has today, so that the old smoker can hold it so painstakingly. with.
Yang Ling and Luo Ziqiang were wandering around looking for a target to attack. Seeing the company commander Xiong Dawu approaching him, he thought to himself, I'm sorry, I will attack you today.
"I'm talking about Platoon Leader Yang, you've been promoted to company deputy, congratulations." Although Xiong Dawu said congratulations, his tone didn't mean congratulations at all, instead it was ironic.
Yang Ling knew that this Xiong Dawu and the elder of the company were not dealing with each other, so he didn't care if he taunted him: "Thank you, Company Commander Xiong."
Damn, this kid has a thick skin, Xiong Dawu looked at the smiling Yang Ling, and cursed inwardly.
"What's the matter, Deputy Yang Lian, are you here for something?"
Yang Ling chuckled: "I heard from our company commander that Company Commander Xiong is good at marksmanship. My hands are itchy. I want to learn from Company Commander Xiong."
As soon as Yang Ling's words came out of his mouth, a sense of pride rose from Xiong Dawu's heart, and he felt a little giddy at once. Damn, the old smoker told the truth this time.
If Xiong Dawu from the third battalion said that he was second in marksmanship, then no one dared to say that he was number one, and this was the only thing he could do in front of the old smoker.
But Xiong Dawu immediately realized that the old smoker sent this kid to compete with him in marksmanship, maybe he has some evil intentions, he has to be cautious.
Xiong Dawu squinted at Yang Ling, his thin body was erect and straight, although he just stood there casually, he exuded an indescribable aura, just like those officers who came out of Whampoa.
Could this kid be a graduate of Whampoa? Xiong Dawu kept murmuring in his heart, but thinking that this kid was from Division 61 before, he concluded that Yang Ling was not a graduate of Whampoa, because he knew the number of people who graduated from Whampoa in the division. , there is no such person as Yang Ling.
"Since Yang Lianfu wants to compete with each other, it's not good for me to refute your face. Tell me, what is the way to compete?"
Xiong Dawu is ready now, teach this Yang Ling a lesson, don't think that you can challenge me by just finding someone, I would like to see what you are looking for, how many catties you have in hand Two, he deserves your praise.
Seeing that Xiong Dawu agreed confidently, Yang Ling felt a little joy in his heart. Since you agreed, you can't blame me.
Luo Ziqiang, who was following Yang Ling, was at a loss now. Didn't he mean looking for ammunition and soldiers? Why did he suddenly compare himself to marksmanship?
"Commander Xiong, if it's too boring to just learn marksmanship, why don't you raise your bets?" Yang Ling pointed at the [-] big cover rifle in his hand: "This gun was seized from the little devil, and it's probably new."
Xiong Dawu was already salivating at the [-] big cover rifles in the hands of the old smokers. When he saw Yang Ling offering to increase the bet, he sneered in his heart, I made you lose without pants.
"Since Deputy Yang Lian is so upbeat, I have no choice but to accompany him to the end." Xiong Dawu greeted the back: "Bring ten grenades over here."
Luo Ziqiang saw Xiong Dawu who was full of confidence, and then looked at Yang Ling who was standing there calmly. At this moment, he suddenly realized that feelings depend on strength to win ammunition. He admired Yang Ling very much.
When the people in the company heard that their company commander was going to compete with the deputy company commander of Lao Yanqiang's company in marksmanship, they all gathered around, ready to watch the show.
In their impression, they had a lot of spear skills compared to their company commanders, but none of them could win. They could already imagine Yang Ling's embarrassment when he lost and returned home.
Text Chapter 37 Willing to Bet
The news that Yang Ling was going to test marksmanship with Xiong Dawu quickly spread. The army was hiding by the reeds, and many people who liked to be lively came over.
The people in the first company were full of confidence in their company commander Xiong Dawu's marksmanship. They stood aside with their arms folded and pointed at Yang Ling.
Yang Ling didn't care, he was absolutely sure if he dared to come. He originally wanted to challenge anyone to win some ammunition, but since Xiong Dawu readily agreed, he didn't hold back.
He withdrew his [-] big cap rifle bullets and placed them next to the ten grenades as a bet.
"Vice Yang Lian, our bullets are precious, and one shot will determine the outcome." Although Xiong Dawu was confident, he couldn't figure out Yang Ling's details, and was afraid that if he fought too much, it would cause problems, so he opened his mouth to formulate the rules.
