I am helping

Chapter 329 Li Yunlong is promising!

"oops."

"Why do I feel like I've fallen into a pit?"

Li Yunlong's tone was helpless.

"What does it mean to fall into a pit?" The chief pretended to be serious: "You mean, I, the division commander and the staff deliberately pushed you into the pit?"

Li Yunlong quickly explained: "Commander, that's not what I mean. I mean the brigade commander, division commander, chief and chief of staff. All of them are more qualified than me to command this battle. It's not my turn."

The chief of staff smiled and said: "Li Yunlong, you are the most suitable person to command this battle among us present."

Li Yunlong was puzzled: "Chief of Staff, why me?"

The chief of staff said bluntly: "Because the victorious battles you commanded the troops were reimbursed."

"Although your Xinyi Regiment seized more than 4 million rounds of ammunition from the ammunition depot of the 300th Brigade of the Japanese Army in Yangquan, more than 9 million rounds of bullets were seized by the 110th Brigade of the Totally Annihilating Japanese Army, and more than 350 million rounds of bullets were seized from the robbery of the Japanese Army. Brothers in other military regions, our bullet reserves now total more than 600 million rounds."

As for the family background of the Eighth Route Army, the chief of staff is very precious.

The batches of bullets seized were basically the credit of Li Yunlong, and most of them were handed over to the headquarters.

Because the main force of the new regiment basically used American weapons, and the county brigade went out to engage in sideline business, it could also guarantee self-sufficiency, so most of the ammunition seized was handed over.

Listening to the chief of staff's words, Li Yunlong couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

Shinozuka Yoshio is worthy of being the captain of the Eighth Route Army's transportation team, unknowingly sent so many bullets to the Eighth Route Army.

To be more precise, Yoshio Shinozuka deserves to be the captain of our old Li's transportation team, because these bullets were basically obtained by our old Li and his troops from the devils.

The chief of staff continued: "There are 182 mountain artillery and howitzers, and the ammunition reserve is about 6 rounds. In addition to the wealth of each artillery regiment, the number of shells is estimated to be 8 to 9 rounds."

Li Yunlong knew that the chief of staff was talking about the total number of shells for the 75 mountain field artillery and the 105 howitzer.

This does not include the number of shells for infantry guns and mortars, which add up to more.

"Our Eighth Route Army has a poor family. Although we have made a few fortunes this winter, it is only enough to fight a big battle."

The chief of staff sighed: "After this battle, our 129th Division of the Eighth Route Army will fall into a period of weakness again."

Because it was fighting head-on with a division of the Japanese army, the battle would definitely be very fierce. Even if they could win, it would be difficult to seize many weapons and ammunition.

One's own side will also lose a lot of weapons and ammunition. In the absence of logistical supplies, soldiers, weapons and ammunition cannot be replenished.

If the devils follow up with the next raid, the consequences may be disastrous.

"If you are in command of this battle, as long as you win the battle, our weapons and ammunition will be reimbursed, plus the seized part, we will make a steady profit."

"And it happens that you are studying large corps operations, so I, the chief and the division commander unanimously decided that you will command this battle."

"Now do you understand why this battle was entrusted to you?"

"I understand!" Li Yunlong nodded solemnly.

After listening to the chief of staff's words, the worries in his heart miraculously disappeared at this moment.

In the final analysis, it was because the Eighth Route Army was too poor, and Li Yunlong happened to have supply channels.

Li Yunlong knew very well in his heart that not only the reimbursement of weapons and ammunition and the seizure of these two copies, but also the business can also earn a share.

Brother Chen Feng should be interested in the big business of eliminating a division of the Japanese army.

For big local tyrants who own aircraft, warships and tanks, the business of a mere division is nothing more than trivial.

At that time, you can earn 3 weapons and ammunition, 1 transaction price, 1 weapon and ammunition reimbursement, and 1 weapon and ammunition seized from the enemy.

At that moment, Li Yunlong stated: "Chief, Chief of Staff, and Division Commander, please rest assured. In order to make our Eighth Route Army rich, even if I lose my front teeth, I have to completely tear the 37th Division of the Japanese Army into pieces!"

"Okay!" The chief patted Li Yunlong on the shoulder, "What I want is your spirit of daring to go all out. You don't have to worry about weapons, ammunition, and logistics supplies. The headquarters will take care of it for you. You just need to formulate a detailed combat plan and emergency plan. , just command a beautiful elimination battle.”

Li Yunlong asked: "Chief, which troops are mainly under my command?"

The chief and the chief of staff looked at the division commander.

师长说道：“归你指挥的部队有，386旅除了新四团和新五团都归你指挥，385旅的第13、第14、第769团，决死一纵队的第25、第38、第42、第57团、第59团，另外还有师属炮兵团也归你指挥。”

"The total military strength has exceeded 3. In addition, the Taiyue and Taihang military regions will mobilize no less than 2 militiamen and civilians to guarantee the logistics of these 3 troops."

"How about it, the headquarters assigned you guys all troops capable of fighting tough battles."

After hearing the words, Li Yunlong calculated carefully, and there are more than 386 people in the 772th Brigade's New First Regiment, New Second Regiment, New Third Regiment, Independent Regiment, 1 Regiment, Cavalry Regiment, and Artillery Regiment.

In addition, there are 385 regiments of the 3th Brigade, plus 5 regiments of the Destroyer Column, plus the Divisional Artillery Regiment, a total of 9 regiments with a strength of more than 1 people.

These regiments can be regarded as the main regiments of the Eighth Route Army. The soldiers can basically have a gun in each hand, and the combat effectiveness of the troops is guaranteed.

Later, Li Yunlong said: "I applied to transfer the howitzer regiment under the artillery brigade directly under the headquarters to me."

At present, there are only 36 howitzers in the entire Eighth Route Army, most of which are equipped in the howitzer regiment directly under the artillery brigade under the headquarters.

This guy is really powerful. If the howitzer regiment is transferred to him, he may be able to wipe out the 37th Division of the Japanese Army without the need to use air support.

The chief said: "Your artillery reinforcement battalion, the artillery regiment directly under the brigade headquarters, and the artillery regiment under the division, you have three artillery regiments in your hand, and they are all American-style mountain artillery. The 3th Division of the Japanese Army only has one. The Mountain Cannon Squad, the Mountain Cannon is estimated to be one-third of yours, enough to suppress or even cover it with artillery fire?"

Not only did the battle commanded by Li Yunlong require artillery support, but the troops who came to aid were under greater pressure and also needed artillery support.

"Enough is enough." Li Yunlong nodded and said, "However, the range of the howitzer is farther than that of the mountain cannon. I think that if the observers in front call for artillery support, it may delay the fighter if it exceeds the range."

The chief of staff made a suggestion: "In fact, we can use the howitzer regiment to replace the division artillery regiment, give the howitzer regiment to Li Yunlong, and use the mountain artillery regiment to the reinforcements. The howitzer is too heavy. After all, it must be fighting while fighting." To withdraw, it is more convenient to use the mountain artillery regiment."

"I agree with the opinion of the chief of staff." Commander Liu also said, "Can Li Yunlong be reimbursed for the consumption of 105 shells?"

"Okay then." The chief thought about it carefully and nodded in agreement, "Then replace the division's mountain artillery regiment with the howitzer regiment."

Li Yunlong was secretly happy. With the howitzer regiment under his command, his confidence in winning this battle would be even greater.

Afterwards, the chief looked at Li Yunlong again: "If you have any other requirements, you can just ask. If you can solve it but can't, the headquarters will find a way to solve it for you."

Li Yunlong thought about it carefully, and there was no problem with the command authority, troop strength, weapons and ammunition, and logistical supplies.

The key is to find a few subordinates who are comfortable.

The chief of staff folded his arms: "This temporary column is called the Taihang column. After this battle, each unit will return to its own formation."

"I have no objection." Li Yunlong said, "Zhao Gang is a good partner with me, so the headquarters doesn't need to send me a political commissar or chief of staff. In addition, I plan to divide this column into three assault groups, that is, columns. For the detachments below, I hope that Ding Wei, Kong Jie and Cheng Shifa will be the commanders of these three detachments. I came from the same class as them, so I know them better and use them smoothly."

"That's no problem." The chief nodded and said, "Which regiment you want to put under which detachment, you can just decide now, so that the headquarters can issue orders together."

"Yes!" Li Yunlong immediately picked up the pencil and a piece of straw paper on the table, and quickly distributed the troops of each regiment under the jurisdiction of the three detachments.

After the division commander read it, he put it away in his pocket. At that time, the division commander asked the staff to prepare the order, and then issued it to each brigade, and then each brigade issued it to each regiment.

Li Yunlong held a meeting with the three chiefs at the headquarters until the afternoon before leaving to return to Yangcun.

……

Yangcun, the gate of Xinyituan Tuanmen.

Li Yunlong got off his horse, handed the reins to Huang Erhu, and hurried to the inner room of the regiment headquarters.Open the curtain and walk into the inner room of the regiment headquarters, and take out the radio communication device from the cabinet.
