Li Yunlong dismounted from his horse, stepped into the brigade gate, and shouted: "Brigade Commander, I, Lao Li, congratulate you on getting rich!"
Many cadres around the brigade headquarters were familiar with Li Yunlong's voice and ran out to watch.
The first to be greeted were Deputy Brigadier Han and Chief of Staff Zhou.
When the two of them saw Li Yunlong, they showed friendly and friendly smiles on their faces.
Now Li Yunlong is the God of Wealth of the 386th Brigade. He has handed over the weapons and equipment of at least five infantry regiments, an artillery regiment, and a cavalry battalion.
After the last attack on Yangquan, Li Yunlong handed over 2 million rounds of ammunition, more than 2 million kilograms of grain, and more than 3,000 guns.
These more than 3,000 guns alone can equip three infantry regiments, and they are all main regiments. If it is a basic regiment, it can equip six basic regiments!
Because the Eighth Route Army's core regiment has more than 500 guns and a few hundred men are enough.
However, because the 386th Brigade is composed of elite soldiers from top to bottom, although the Independent Regiment, the New First Regiment, and the New Second Regiment were only basic regiments at the beginning.
But now they have developed to the size and combat effectiveness of the main group.
Of course, Li Yunlong's contribution is the greatest. The weapons and equipment he handed over enhanced the overall combat effectiveness of the 386 Brigade.
Not only did the soldiers of the 386th Brigade have one gun per man, but they also had sufficient ammunition and powerful artillery firepower in a short period of time.
The New Regiment fought beautifully in Yangquan, Shouyang and the bombardment of the Japanese airport, which brought glory to the entire 386th Brigade Headquarters.
Deputy Brigadier Han and Chief of Staff Zhou saw that Li Yunlong's attitude was naturally much better than before.
"Isn't this Captain Li?"
"The day before yesterday, you brought hundreds of people to the brigade headquarters to eat and drink, and they all left the brigade headquarters destitute."
"Why, today you just said congratulations to the brigade commander for getting rich, and you just want to ask for a drink?"
The speaker was Deputy Brigadier Han. He crossed his arms and looked at Li Yunlong with a smile, and his tone was a bit joking.
"How is that possible?" Li Yunlong said: "The last time we captured Yangquan, I handed over more than 2 million kilograms of grain to the brigade headquarters. The brigade headquarters is extremely rich now. How can I, with hundreds of people, deprive the brigade headquarters in one meal? "
"You're better than a monkey when it comes to hair." Chief of Staff Zhou said with a smile, "Why are you here at the brigade headquarters?"
"I brought some gifts for the brigade commander."
"Where's the brigade commander? Is the brigade commander here?"
Li Yunlong stood on his tiptoes slightly and glanced into the brigade headquarters. When he saw the brigade commander stepping out of the brigade headquarters room, he quickly put away his careless expression.
The brigade commander coughed lightly: "Here you are..."
"What gift?" the brigade commander laughed, "Did you get a good gun? Come on, show it to me?"
"If it's not a gun, what's a gun?" Li Yunlong deliberately gave it a try, "Brigadier Commander, guess what gift our old Li brought you?"
The brigade commander stepped past Li Yunlong, took a look outside the brigade headquarters yard, and said in a confused tone: "It's not a gun, what is that? Could it be the Oriental army horse you are riding?"
Li Yunlong's transport team is on its way. It can only be seen by standing at the entrance of the village, not in front of the brigade headquarters.
After hearing this, Chief of Staff Zhou and Deputy Brigadier Han came to the door and looked at Li Yunlong's army horse. It must be said that the horse Li Yunlong was riding looked fat and strong, and was all white. It was a rare Oriental horse. Horse.
Li Yunlong smiled very little: "Brigadier, can you guess again?"
"You want to talk or not." The brigade commander walked towards the inner room of the brigade with his hands behind his back. "If you don't tell me, I don't want your gift anymore."
"Brigade commander, is this what you said?" Li Yunlong was very happy and joked, "If you don't want this gift from the mountain artillery regiment, you are so generous, brigade commander."
"Li Yunlong, what did you say, a mountain artillery regiment?" The brigade commander turned around suddenly, breathing rapidly: "Where is the mountain artillery regiment?"
Chief of Staff Zhou and Deputy Brigadier Han also stared at Li Yunlong with their eyes wide open.
"It's at the back. We'll be there in about five minutes." Li Yunlong grinned, "I'll go ahead and come in advance to congratulate the brigade commander on your fortune."
"You kid, don't lie to me." said the brigade commander. "If there is no mountain artillery battalion, see how I deal with you."
"My brigadier, I can't lie to anyone, but I dare not lie to you, brigade commander." Li Yunlong laughed so hard that he deserved to be beaten. He stood up and walked outside, "Let's take a walk and take a look at your mountain artillery regiment."
Seeing Li Yunlong's invitation gesture, the brigade commander narrowed his eyes and followed Li Yunlong out.
Deputy Brigadier Han and Chief of Staff Zhou quickly followed, followed closely by the combat staff of the brigade headquarters, and even the cooking team of the brigade headquarters came to join in the fun.
At this time, part of Li Yunlong's transport team had arrived at the grain drying field. It was 36 assembled American 75mm mountain guns pulled by 36 mules.
This mountain gun only weighs 1,300 pounds and has rubber tires. A mule can pull it along the not-so-steep mountain roads, and the road from the new regiment to the brigade headquarters is easy to walk.
The most difficult thing to transport is actually the artillery shells. This 75mm mountain artillery shell weighs 8 kilograms. One artillery shell box contains 3 artillery shells. A mountain artillery regiment has more than 3,000 artillery shell boxes based on 3 bases.
Li Yunlong dispatched all the mules and horses of the new regiment, the logistics transport team, the cavalry battalion and the first battalion, and he could barely transport more than 3,000 shell boxes.
The soldiers were untying the traction rope from the mule, and then several soldiers pushed the cannon to the center of the grain drying field.
This situation attracted many brigade personnel and people in the village to stop and watch.
Thirty-six M175mm mountain guns were quickly arranged neatly in four rows, standing there like neatly arranged steel beasts.
Li Yunlong slapped the barrel of the cannon with his palm, and the corners of his mouth were raised. His tone was also very proud: "Brigade commander, there are thirty-six mountain cannons in a mountain artillery regiment. If you don't want this gift, then I will ask the soldiers to take it back." Yes, just in time for me to create a mountain artillery brigade."
The surrounding brigade personnel and civilians had their eyes wide open. They had never seen so many mountain cannons before, and there was a sudden commotion.
Deputy Brigadier Han and Chief of Staff Zhou immediately understood that this batch of mountain artillery must be from the mysterious patriotic man named Chen like last time.
But the amount of mountain artillery assistance Li Yunlong received this time was a bit too much?
Last time, there were only 24 mountain cannons in two mountain cannon battalions. Although I don’t know how many mountain cannons Li Yunlong received, the fact that he took the initiative to hand over a mountain cannon regiment to the brigade headquarters is enough to show that the number of mountain cannons received this time is at least 60. And judging from Li Yunlong's tone, there might be a mountain artillery brigade in total. Bayi Chinese website
The brigade commander didn't speak for a while, but stared straight at the thirty-six mountain cannons in front of him.
After a long while, the brigade commander spoke, with an excited trembling voice: "Where are the artillery shells, are they still 2 base numbers?"
"Two base numbers, you are so petty." Li Yunlong said, "Three base numbers are on their way, they should be here soon!"
One mountain cannon has 100 rounds per base number, 3 base numbers are 300 rounds, and 36 multiplied by 300 is more than 10,000 rounds.
The brigade commander did a quick mental calculation.
Although the brigade commander was born in the Huangpu Military Academy and is well-informed, he has always tightened his belt, whether in the Red Army period or the current Eighth Route Army.
Now I really made a fortune!
The brigade commander was ecstatic.
"You're such a proactive kid." The brigade commander suppressed the excitement in his heart and said with a smile, "I'm sure I didn't hold it all in. If you have any requests, just ask them quickly."
There are not many other brigade commanders, but a large number of militiamen. He is also the commander of the Taiyue Military Region. This time, there are more than 20,000 militiamen in the Taiyue Military Region participating in the Battle of Zhengtai.
Of course, most of the militiamen did not have guns, and very few participated in the battle. Their main tasks were logistics and track removal.
Li Yunlong had a smile on his face: "Haha, you know me well, brigade commander. Give me a thousand recruits from the teaching regiment, and dozens of company and platoon-level officers."
After comparing the comprehensive militia, self-recruited recruits and the recruits from the teaching group, Li Yunlong still felt that the recruits from the teaching group were good.
Because those who can join the teaching corps are basically of good quality, and most of them were originally militiamen.
When these recruits joined the main force of the Eighth Route Army, the villagers in the village beat gongs and drums to see them off. Many people who wanted to join the main force of the Eighth Route Army were not selected.
They all have a sense of honor. It would be a shame to be fired and sent back to the main force of the Eighth Route Army if they did not do well.
The brigade commander waved his hand and said: "The teaching group is not under my control. If you want to teach the group's new recruits, you should go to the division commander or the boss. As for company and platoon-level officers, I don't have any here."
In fact, Li Yunlong had already guessed this result. He had no intention of getting the new recruits and company and platoon-level cadres from the brigade commander.
Li Yunlong said: "Brigade commander, there are no recruits from the teaching regiment and company and platoon-level officers. Isn't it too much to give me two to three thousand militiamen from your Taiyue Military Region?"
"Two or three thousand people?" the brigade commander asked, "Let's see what you can do. If you want to be a brigade commander, why don't you give up my position as brigade commander to you?"
"Brigadier, you are being unreasonable." Li Yunlong said, "I am handing over a mountain artillery regiment with tens of thousands of shells. Is it reasonable to ask for militia to supplement the troops?"
"Deputy Brigadier Han, Chief of Staff Zhou, you two chiefs are here to comment. Isn't it reasonable?"
"Li Yunlong," Deputy Brigade Commander Han said, "Our brigade headquarters also has difficulties. Two or three thousand militiamen cannot give it to you, but one thousand militiamen can still give it to you."
The brigade commander said: "At most, there are a thousand militiamen. There are not many. If you want to expand the army, you have to think of it yourself. Don't bother me with these things all the time."
"A thousand militiamen are fine, it's better than none." Li Yunlong said, "I would like to apply for the designation and establishment of a county brigade for our new regiment. Isn't this condition excessive?"
Although the Eighth Route Army has developed rapidly, with the force expanding to more than 100 regiments in just three years, the regiment-level organization and designation are not given casually.
The establishment and number are limited, so the competition is fierce. For example, if the county brigade is expanded to a regiment-level number and number, it must achieve a sufficiently impressive record.
However, the performance of the new regiment was impressive enough, and it was only a county brigade's establishment and number, which was nothing to the brigade commander.
The brigade commander didn't even think much and said: "County brigade, right? OK, I agree."
"Are there any other conditions?"
"I only have one condition left." Li Yunlong said, "Commander, you have to treat me to a drink."
"It's okay to drink," the brigade commander said, "but you have to tell me honestly, how many mountain cannons do you have?"
"Brother Shen!"
"Um!"
When Shen Changqing walks on the road, whenever he encounters familiar people, he will say hello or nod to each other.
But no matter who it is.
There was no unnecessary expression on everyone's face, as if they were indifferent to everything.
To this.
Shen Changqing has become accustomed to it.
Because this is the Demon Suppression Division, an organization that maintains the stability of the Qin Dynasty. Its main responsibility is to kill monsters and monsters. Of course, there are also some other side jobs.
It can be said.
Everyone in the Demon Suppression Division has a lot of blood on their hands.
When a person is used to seeing life and death, he will become indifferent to many things.
When he first came to this world, Shen Changqing was a little uncomfortable, but he got used to it over time.
The Demon-Suppressing Division is huge.
Those who can stay in the Demon Suppressing Division are all powerful masters, or those who have the potential to become masters.
Shen Changqing belongs to the latter.
Among them, the Demon Suppressor Division is divided into two professions, one is the Guardian Envoy and the other is the Demon Slayer.
Anyone who enters the Demon Suppression Department starts from the lowest level as a demon slayer.
Then he will be promoted step by step, and he is expected to eventually become a guardian envoy.
Shen Changqing's predecessor was a trainee demon slayer in the Demon Suppression Division, and he was also the lowest level among the demon slayers.
Possessing the memory of a previous life.
He is also very familiar with the environment of the Demon Suppression Division.
It didn't take long for Shen Changqing to stop in front of a loft.
Unlike other places in the Demon Suppressing Division that were full of chills, the attic here seemed to stand out from the crowd, showing a different kind of tranquility in the bloody Demon Suppressing Division.
At this time, the attic door was open, and occasionally people came in and out.
Shen Changqing only hesitated for a moment before stepping in.
Enter the attic.
The environment changes in vain.
The fragrance of ink mixed with the faint smell of blood hit his face, making him frown instinctively, but then relaxed it quickly.
There is almost no way to cleanse away the smell of blood on everyone in the Demon-Suppressing Division.
