I am helping

"It seems that the head of the headquarters has a lot of support for us."

Li Yunlong looked happy first, is there such a good thing?

But if you think about it carefully, Southeast Shanxi is now under the control of the Eighth Route Army, and there is only one cavalry regiment, the 386th Brigade, in Southeast Shanxi.

Previously, because Zhao Gang hadn't found out the devils' senior agents lurking in the Xinyi Regiment.

Li Yunlong asked Boss Chen for technical assistance, and the business price was halved. Originally, Boss Chen should pay 1000 military horses.

However, Boss Chen went to the Xinyi regiment that day and said that Li Yunlong had a fruitful battle this time, so he gave Li Yunlong an additional 1000 military horses, a total of 2000 military horses.

Li Yunlong originally planned to hand over 1000 military horses, and then collect some military horses at the headquarters to expand two cavalry regiments.

Moreover, Li Yunlong provided the weapons and equipment of these two cavalry regiments.

Although there is not much food in the 129th Division, it is not a big problem to raise two cavalry regiments.

The head of the headquarters let all 2000 military horses be placed in the new regiment, apparently fully supporting the development of the cavalry unit of the new regiment.

In the future, whether it is going north to attack the Japanese army stationed in Mongolia and the Kwantung Army, or going east to attack the main force of the North China Front Army, although the cavalry is not as good as the armored force.

But to deal with the devils, the cavalry has a lot of room to play, after all, the devils' firepower is not strong.

At this moment, Li Yunlong thought a lot.

The head of the headquarters takes a longer view.

Suddenly, Li Yunlong's heart moved, and he thought about all the issues that the head of the headquarters had considered in an instant.

Then my current level, compared with the boss, should be almost lower, right?

The comparison is definitely not comparable, but Li Yunlong is probably not far behind. In the past two years, his level in all aspects has improved rapidly.

"It is."

Wang Dehou nodded:
"After all, the head of the headquarters is also very clear that the stronger our Xinyi regiment is, the greater the fortune the headquarters will be able to make."

"If I were the head of the headquarters, I wouldn't want cavalry. Aren't tanks, armored vehicles and heavy artillery better than cavalry?"

"However, head, according to the establishment of our cavalry battalion, our new regiment can expand to 3 cavalry battalions this time."

"By then we will have 5 cavalry battalions with nearly 4000 cavalry, almost the size of a cavalry division."

The batch of military horses sent by Boss Chen are all well-trained military horses, which can be used directly, and they will not be surprised when facing guns on the battlefield.

However, after the cavalry battalion is formed, it needs to train for at least 1 to 3 months before it can form combat effectiveness and go to the battlefield.

"Are you worried about the unified command of the cavalry battalion?" Li Yunlong asked.

Li Yunlong used to say that with the reputation of brigade commander, it would not be bad to have a cavalry division.

Now Li Yunlong's reputation is as good as that of the brigade commander, and he finally matched himself with a cavalry division.

Hehe, brigade commander, I'm sorry, but our old Li was assigned a cavalry division first.

"Yes."

Wang Dehou nodded.

Li Yunlong said: "It's simple. I will apply to the head of the headquarters to raise the treatment of Ma Renxing and Wang Chengzhu to the rank of regimental deputy, so that our artillery and cavalry will not lack unified command in the future."

After a pause, Li Yunlong smiled.

The new regiment has five cavalry battalions, even against the Devil's 1st cavalry brigade, it has a great advantage.

Wang Dehou nodded, expressing that he had no objection.

Li Yunlong slapped his head: "By the way, when we were discussing what kind of plane we wanted that day, we were only thinking about the plane and forgot about the radar."

"Yep."

Wang Dehou thought about it, and said quickly: "We want 70 planes, but we don't have extra credit for radar. How can we monitor the devil's plane without radar?"

Li Yunlong said: "So I am going to replace 15 reconnaissance planes with 5 reconnaissance planes for 5 radars, and install one at each of the four airports."

The price of changing the radar is the same as changing the plane.

After replacing five radars, there are still 40 attack aircraft, 15 transport aircraft and 10 reconnaissance aircraft, plus the previous 20 Saber fighter jets, a total of 85 aircraft.

Dagu Town Airport is not big enough to hold so many planes.

In the future, the Eighth Route Army will have more aircraft, and additional airports will need to be built.

Of course, if Taiyuan is recovered, both the regiment headquarters and the airport will have to move to Taiyuan. The airport built by the devils there is relatively large, and the terrain is very flat, so the airport can be expanded at any time.

In the future, the airports in Northwest Shanxi and Southeast Shanxi can be used as pilot training bases in the rear.

"Then there is still a radar?" Wang Dehou asked. At present, the Eighth Route Army has a total of four airports, and each airport is equipped with a radar, and there is still one radar left.

Wouldn't it be nice to replace this radar with an airplane?
Li Yunlong said: "There is also a radar sent to YA, in case the devil's plane detours to attack YA."

"It's still the leader who thinks long-term."

Wang Dehou expressed admiration, why didn't he consider this?

In the evening, when Zhao Gang and Xing Zhiguo came back, Li Yunlong discussed with them about cavalry and new business.

The two had no objection.

……

Two days later.

Li Yunlong called Ma Renxing, Wang Chengzhu, Yao Shangwen and Sun Desheng to the regiment headquarters for a talk.

Li Yunlong applied to the regiment headquarters to upgrade the treatment of the four battalion commanders to the rank of deputy regiment.

These are the other four fierce generals under Li Yunlong's command.

With the combat achievements of these four, it is more than enough to be a regiment commander or even a brigade commander in other troops.

of course.

Only in Xinyi Regiment can these few achieve so many military exploits.

The last time Wang Chengzhu led a battalion and the Sword Squadron to Wujin Mountain in Taiyuan to bombard the devil's airport, killed dozens of devil planes and a dozen devil pilots, and earned more than 100 mountain guns and howitzers.

At that time, Li Yunlong wanted to apply for Wang Chengzhu's treatment at the deputy level of the regiment, but he was delayed because he was too busy.

考虑到如今新一团成建制的炮兵营1个有150毫米榴弹炮营、2个105毫米榴弹炮营、1个B4重型榴弹炮营、1个喀秋莎火箭炮营。

One Katyusha rocket launcher battalion and one B1 heavy howitzer battalion will be expanded immediately, and there will be more in the future.

So Yao Shangwen, the battalion commander of the 150mm howitzer with outstanding military exploits, is also among them.

Also.

This time Li Yunlong is also planning to expand two tank battalions, and Sun Desheng needs to be unified in command. In addition, Sun Desheng's military achievements are sufficient, so he also applied for the treatment at the deputy regiment level.

As for Li Yunlong himself, he is now treated at the level of an assistant teacher, and it is only a matter of time before he is promoted to the level of a teacher.

Li Yunlong glanced at the four fierce generals under him, with an extremely satisfied expression:

"The order from the headquarters has come down."

"From now on, the allowances of the four of you will be paid according to the level of the deputy regiment."

"In future operations, according to the needs of combat missions, our new regiment's cavalry, artillery and tank units will be organized into some synthetic battalions, and will be handed over to you to command at that time."

"Do you have the confidence to command the troops well?"

The synthetic battalion run by the Xinyi Regiment is actually similar in nature to the columns of the People's Liberation Army.

A temporary organization method based on operational needs.

But the scale is not that big, the formation of the column is equivalent to an army, and the size of the new regiment's synthetic battalion is at best a reinforced regiment, between a division.

Of course, this kind of organization also has its problems, but the flaws do not conceal the advantages.

"Have!"

The four battalion commanders shouted in unison, with excited expressions but full of air in their voices.

Li Yunlong nodded, with a more satisfied expression:

"Our Xinyi Regiment now has more than 5 people. In terms of size, it has long surpassed an army, and it is about the same strength as a group army of the National Army."

"Our regiment-level organization is only temporary. After the devils are beaten away and the whole of China is liberated, then I, Li Yunlong, will also become the commander of the group army and even the commander of the front army."

"A few of you are at least major generals and lieutenant generals."

"You Wang Chengzhu and Yao Shangwen are the commanders of the artillery army, you Ma Renxing are the commanders of the cavalry army, and you Sun Desheng are the commanders of the tank army. You have thousands of heavy and medium tanks under your command."

While speaking, Li Yunlong's eyes were also filled with anticipation.

His own troops reached 100 million, including heavy artillery, tanks, aircraft, and even battleships and submarines.

By then, no country will dare to bully China anymore, right?

At that time, whoever dares to bully China will fight first.

Hehe smiled, and Sun Desheng said: "The relationship is good, and our Sun Desheng can also be a general."

Although Li Yunlong's words sounded like a cake, Sun Desheng knew very well that the cake wasn't something he couldn't eat.

With Boss Chen's increasing support, even if it doesn't reach what the team leader said, it's not far off.

"Captain, by that time, the cavalry will be useless."

Ma Renxing's eyes were burning:
"I also want to be the commander of the tank army."

"No problem." Li Yunlong nodded, "In the future, your cavalry units will all be organized into tank units when the time is right."

Next, Li Yunlong chatted with several battalion commanders for a while and asked about the recent situation of the troops.

The air at regimental headquarters was filled with cheerfulness.

Just when Li Yunlong was about to end, Huang Erhu's voice sounded outside the door: "Report!"

Li Yunlong: "Come in!"

Huang Erhu walked in quickly, and gave a military salute: "Reporting to the head, there is a call from the Dagu Town Airport. The first batch of military horses and a company's new guns brought by Boss Chen have arrived!"

"Oh?" Li Yunlong looked happy, "Order the 1st Battalion of the Cavalry and the 2nd Battalion of the Cavalry to go to the airport to lead the horses."

"Order the transport battalion to go to some cars and transport the new guns to the shooting range in Dagu Town."

"Yes!"

Huang Erhu straightened his body, turned and left.

Li Yunlong grabbed the military cap on the table and put it on, then put on the steel helmet, and looked at the crowd:

"You guys will go to Dagu Town shooting range with me to test guns."

"Captain, did Boss Chen give you a new gun?" Ma Renxing's eyes lit up slightly.

In the past, Ma Renxing's Jizhong Cavalry Regiment was equipped with various cavalry rifles.

After being reorganized into the 2nd Battalion of the Cavalry of the new regiment, Ma Renxing's cavalry unit was equipped with a unified standard equipment, the system-improved M1 carbine.

The cavalry fighters used it very well.

Li Yunlong nodded and said: "That's right, Boss Chen has released a new gun, which is better than the Garand and Carbine of the US military."

Hearing what the group leader said, everyone showed extremely interested expressions on their faces.

Everyone has been on the battlefield for a long time, so they naturally have a soft spot for guns. Although the US military's guns have shortcomings, they are still easy to use, and they are much better than the devil's guns.

Followed by.

Li Yunlong also ordered the telegrapher to notify the Sword Squadron and the commanders of the main infantry battalions to gather at the shooting range in Dagu Town immediately. (end of this chapter)
