"Oh, the first rank of the official ranks crushes people to death."

"I admit it, can't I admit it?"

"One company, but only one company."

Kong Jie wanted to say more but was interrupted by the brigade commander.

"Okay, Captain Kong, it's almost done."

Kong Jie snorted lightly, and said nothing more.

Kong Jie actually knew that it would be good to do so.

Li Yunlong has always only taken advantage of others, when did he suffer?

Li Yunlong was in a bad mood after suffering a loss, so he didn't even entertain him for lunch.

The brigade commander was not angry, and left happily with the chief of staff. What he cared about was the four mountain cannons.

Kong Jie also left, and Guan Dashan, commander of the 1st Battalion, and more than 1 elite veterans from the 1st Battalion and 100st Company left with Kong Jie.

Then there is the batch of weapons and equipment handed in.

Among them, more than 1000 horses are indispensable.

The independent regiment is really unable to feed so many horses.

Watching Kong Jie go out, Li Yunlong sighed, "That's why I'm afraid of traitors in everything."

"This time there is a traitor, you must suffer a lot. This time our independent group really suffered a lot."

"Damn, I thought I would be able to have a satisfying Lantern Festival by killing the Black Island United, but I didn't expect this to happen in the end. Hey, I really can't live through this day."

"Okay, Lao Li." Zhao Gang persuaded.

"This time our independent regiment suffered a little loss, but for the entire 386 brigade, the armed forces have grown stronger, so the hope of winning the war of resistance has increased by one point."

"Okay, let's talk about these big principles again."

Li Yunlong said angrily: "My ears are calloused."

Wang Ye said: "Leader, let me tell the truth. In fact, heavy weapons must be used in a concentrated manner to exert their maximum effectiveness. If they are used in a scattered manner, their lethality will be greatly weakened. Therefore, the three mountain cannons belonging to the artillery battalion of the brigade and the three mountain cannons we seized The four mountain cannons should indeed be used in a concentrated manner, which is better than spreading them out."

Zhao Gang said: "This is not the most important thing."

After a pause, Zhao Gang continued: "The most important thing is that our independent regiment does not have enough logistical support capabilities. With the little funds and materials allocated by the superior department, plus the materials captured on the battlefield, we can support more than 2000 commanders and fighters. , more than 100 war horses and more than 200 district mules and horses are already very difficult.”

"We can't really afford an artillery battalion right now."

"I know." Li Yunlong said, "It's just my heart is blocked."

Wang Ye smiled and said, "Let's divide up the troops. After the division, the logistics support capability will be strengthened."

"Divide the troops equally?" Li Yunlong said, "If there is a day, I can wake up laughing from my dreams."

Wang Ye said seriously: "Regimental Commander, I'm really not talking nonsense. Within a year at most, the Japanese army in Shanxi will definitely have a wave of large-scale retaliation. By then, our 129th Division will definitely score troops."

"That's it." Li Yunlong said, "Then I would rather not divide the troops."

Because that kind of passive division of troops means heavy losses.

Wang Ye said, "I'm afraid we can't help this."

……

On the way back to the brigade.

The brigade commander happily hummed the flower drum opera of his hometown.

"I'm better than Brother Hai, Sister Hu..."

The Chief of Staff was overwhelmed by the disturbance, and hurriedly said: "Brigade Commander, you originally planned to withdraw the entire 1st Battalion from the Independent Regiment, but why did you only withdraw one company?"

"Isn't something wrong?"

The brigade commander looked back at the mountain cannon parts carried by mules and horses.

He said again: "Li Yunlong, this kid, always only takes advantage of the advantages and not the disadvantages. This time I robbed him of four 4 mountain guns and four Type 75 heavy machine guns. If the 4st Battalion is taken out of the independent regiment as a whole, he will definitely rebel."

"It's true." The chief of staff laughed, "Li Yunlong is really crazy when he makes a fuss."

The chief of staff is also an old man of the Fourth Front Army, so don't be too clear about Li Yunlong's details.

"Back then in Hubei, Henan and Anhui, there was also a quarrel with the friendly army because of weapons and equipment. The division commander and army commander couldn't suppress it. In the end, Commander Xu personally came forward to suppress it."

The brigade commander said: "Therefore, there must be a limit to pulling wool."

The chief of staff said: "It's still the brigade commander, you have a way to control Li Yunlong."

"Chief of staff, you are wrong, what can I do?" said the brigade commander, "It's our cadres."

Chapter 92 New Missions

The brigade commander said: "Just say Li Yunlong."

"This kid is really stupid sometimes, and he dares to disobey the boss's military orders."

"And when it comes to interests, I always like to take more and take more, and the brother troops will not let it go."

"But his starting point is not to eat, drink and enjoy himself, let alone to get promoted and get rich. He may not even realize it. This is a kind of simple patriotism."

"The starting point for him to do all this is for this country, for this suffering nation."

"For the sake of this country, for the sake of this nation, he doesn't even want to kill himself. He is already the head of the regiment, and he dares to bayonet the devils on the battlefield!"

"Of course, I'm not praising him."

"As the head of the regiment, it is a serious dereliction of duty to lead the commando to charge while not in the command position."

"But what I want to say is that this kid has a kind, he has a kind of aura, a kind of aura that he will shine his sword when he encounters an enemy, and he has an invincible aura. Because of this aura, no matter how powerful a devil is in his eyes a piece of meat."

"So he doesn't care about being eaten by me, because he can grab more from the devil."

"Don't look at this kid's yelling fiercely, but he doesn't have much resistance in his heart."

The chief of staff agreed deeply: "That's true. Li Yunlong actually cares more about autonomy. As long as the brigade commander gives him a certain amount of autonomy, he doesn't mind handing over to the brigade headquarters some of the seizures."

"Li Yunlong's political awareness may not be much lower than that of Zhao Gang."

"He just doesn't like to talk about giving, but there's nothing less to do."

"It may be that he feels that Zhao Gang's way of acting is not enough for Li Yunlong. Only when the brigade commander comes to rob you, and he yells a few times before giving out the equipment, is Li Yunlong."

"This is a fucking typical rural kid."

"If you don't whip him for three days, his skin will itch all over."

The brigade commander laughed, and the chief of staff also laughed.

After laughing, the brigade commander said again: "The independent regiment has only drawn out one company. That kid Ding Wei must have followed suit and is only willing to send out one company. Even including the cavalry company and the special agent company directly under the brigade headquarters, there are only four companies." There are too few backbone companies, so it may be difficult for the new second regiment to quickly form combat effectiveness."

The chief of staff said: "Do you want to draw two companies from the 772 regiment to the new second regiment?"

"I think it will work." The brigade commander said, "The 771st regiment has gone to southern Hebei, and now it can only draw troops from the 772nd regiment. Tell Cheng Shifa, chief of staff, to change people if you don't change your mind."

For the 772 regiment, the formed regiment, the brigade commander was not as polite as the independent regiment.

This is like the eldest son in the family who always has to bear the heaviest responsibilities and obligations.

The chief of staff said: "Brigade Commander, let's talk about being happy. With these four 4 mountain guns, our artillery battalion can be regarded as a real artillery battalion. Next time we encounter a difficult task, we don't have to do it like before. Let the soldiers rush up with bundles of grenades, what a good soldier, it's a pity to sacrifice like that."

The brigade commander sighed: "Yes, our 386 brigade will have real artillery in the future!"

The chief of staff said again: "I really hope that the headquarters can coordinate the various bases earlier, so that our brigade can fight the devils. In this battle, our 386 brigade must win several stations and several counties."

"Of course." The brigade commander turned his head leisurely, looking in the direction of Xiangyangquan County.

……

Yangquan Railway Station.

Hideo Maeda, head of the 4th Brigade of the Japanese Army, got off the train.

Yoshio Shinozuka, the commander of the 1st Army of the Japanese Army stationed in Shanxi, invited Hideo Maeda to stay in Taiyuan for another day, but Hideo Maeda declined Shinozuka Yoshio's kindness and returned to Yangquan by train early in the morning.

"General." Chief of Staff Isamu Kimura stepped forward to salute.

Maeda Hideo waved his hand, and said in a deep voice, "Kimura-kun, has the Black Island United team been in contact?"

Before going to bed last night, Maeda Hideo made a special call to Yangquan to inquire about the situation of the Kuroshima United team. At that time, Kimura Isamu replied that Kuroshima Morita had returned to Huting stronghold.

Hideo Maeda sent a telegram to the Kuroshima Regiment through the 1st Army Headquarters.

The Black Island Alliance replied that it would strengthen the defense of the Huting stronghold and would not attack.

After receiving this reply from the Kuroshima United, Maeda Shucai was finally relieved.

However, out of caution, Maeda Hideo sent a telegram to the Black Island United Team early this morning to inquire about the situation, but this time, the Black Island United Team did not receive a reply for a long time.

Maeda Hideo realized that something was wrong.

At the moment, he ordered Isamu Kimura to continue to call the Black Island United team while rushing to Yangquan.

Knowing that he still couldn't get in touch with the Black Island Regiment, Hideo Maeda became anxious for a while, and asked again: "Have the communication cavalry been dispatched?"

Kimura Yong paused and said: "A group of communication cavalry was sent early this morning, and a second group of communication cavalry was sent to the Huting stronghold half an hour ago."

While the two were talking, a communications staff officer hurried over.

"General." The communications officer reported with a pause, "The communications cavalry sent to the Huting stronghold have returned."

"How's the situation?" Maeda Hideki asked anxiously, "The Kuroshima United should still be staying at the Huting stronghold, so they haven't attacked?"

Facing Maeda Hideo's hopeful eyes, the Communications Staff Officer still shook his head, and said with some regret: "General, the Black Island Regiment launched an attack on the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army last night."

"Nani?" Hideo Maeda's face suddenly collapsed.

Isamu Kimura hurriedly persuaded: "General, the situation may not be that bad. The Black Island Regiment may still be marching, or it may be fighting fiercely with the Eighth Route Army, so there is no time to establish communication with the rear for the time being."

"Mr. Kimura, why do you deceive yourself and others?" Maeda Hideo said with a sigh.

"Mr. Hei Dao returned to the Huting stronghold at ten o'clock last night. If he had intended to surprise the Eighth Route Army headquarters, he would never have waited until this morning to dispatch troops. He would have dispatched troops overnight last night."

"So up to now, ten hours have already passed. If everything goes well, the Black Island Regiment should have arrived near Daxia Bay, where the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army is located. Even the battle is almost over. Is there no time to establish communication in the rear?"

"There's only one explanation for that, I'm afraid."

What explanation Hideo Maeda did not say.

But it doesn't matter if you say it or not.

Because Isamu Kimura already knew what Hideo Maeda meant.

However, Isamu Kimura still had a fluke mentality and said: "General, there may be other possibilities. For example, the radio station of the Black Island United has a mechanical failure. In short, I don't believe that Tubalu can eat the Black Island United overnight. How can the 1000nd Guards Cavalry Regiment with more than 2 cavalry be so easily wiped out by the Eighth Route Army?"

"I don't believe it either." Maeda Hideo sighed, "But sometimes the reality is so cruel."

Speaking of this, Maeda Hideo went on to say: "Immediately call the headquarters of the 1st Army and ask the aviation force to send a reconnaissance plane to carry out reconnaissance of the Taihang bandit area. No matter what, we must find the Black Island Wing."

"In addition, an infantry brigade from the 3rd Wing will be urgently dispatched to reinforce the Huting stronghold."

"In case, I mean in case, in case something happens to the Black Island Alliance, then the Huting stronghold is in danger, so the defense of the Huting stronghold must be strengthened."

……

In Yangcun.

Seeing the mountains of weapons and equipment in the warehouse, Li Yunlong's mood immediately improved.

Li Yunlong smiled and asked: "Old Gou, tell me quickly, how much property has our independent group saved?"

Old Gou took out a small book from the cabinet, opened it with some saliva on his fingers, and said loudly: "Now our independent regiment has 2021 rifles of various types, 208 pistols of various types, and 50 light machine guns of various types. There are 6 Type 81 heavy machine guns, 6 90mm caliber mortars, and 2 [-]mm caliber mortars.”

"In terms of ammunition, there are 12 rounds of various caliber bullets, more than 356 rounds of throwing grenades, 498 grenades, 81 rounds of 121mm caliber mortar shells, and 90 rounds of 90mm caliber mortar shells."

"Wait." Li Yunlong frowned, "How come there are only 81 rounds of 121 shells left? There are also grenades. There were 400 rounds in the inventory last time. Why the hell are there only 356 rounds left?"

"Regimental Commander, you can't blame me for this." Old Gou shouted, "Anyway, after the battle, the artillery company and the 1st Battalion returned only these shells and grenades."

Wang Ye reminded: "Regimental Commander, the missing dozens of shells were smashed by the artillery company at the exit of Fengxiang Ridge. Otherwise, we would not be able to stop the Black Island Regiment. There are still dozens of missing grenade rounds. It was also used by the 1st Battalion in the Xiaoyizhuang battle, otherwise the 1st Battalion would not have wiped out the nearly [-] devils trapped in Xiaoyizhuang so quickly."

"Oh yes, I forgot about this, look at my memory."

Li Yunlong slapped his forehead and asked again: "What about other supplies?"

Old Gou said: "Others are just bits and pieces, there is nothing to talk about."
