Rise from the sword

Chapter 390 Everyone is shocked!
"Captain Li."

Before Li Yunlong could enter the door, Staff Officer Luo came out and greeted him with a smile.

Staff Officer Luo is a prudent person. Although Li Yunlong is now paid as deputy brigade commander, he is still head of the regiment himself, and the military rank system has not been popularized in the army, so Staff Officer Luo still directly calls the regiment commander, instead of jokingly calling him brigade commander like Kong Jie and Ding Wei. long.

"Staff Luo."

Li Yunlong dismounted, and at the same time responding to Staff Luo, he looked around to find the brigade commander.

The Devils had just retreated, and all the troops and bases were full of things. At this time, the brigade commander must be at the brigade headquarters, or in the main regiments around the brigade headquarters, and he couldn't run very far.

"Are you looking for the brigade commander?"

"The brigade commander went to inspect the troops and will be back soon."

As Staff Officer Luo said, he brought Li Yunlong into the brigade headquarters, and poured Li Yunlong a cup of tea.

at the same time.

Behind the brigade headquarters, in a dilapidated earth-brick house, the brigade commander was sitting leisurely, holding an unlit cigarette in his hand. The door was opened, and the company commander of the brigade headquarters ran in panting.

"Did Li Yunlong bring a transport team? How big is it?"

As soon as the company commander entered the door, the brigade commander asked.

He couldn't understand why Li Yunlong came here.

This kid has a channel to get a lot of supplies, as well as weapons and ammunition. This time he is here to support the brigade headquarters and other troops, and he is also here for benefits.Of course, I still came here to show off.

"The time is urgent. I don't have a specific number. It is estimated that there are more than 100 carts. The carts are all pulled by big mules. There are more than 200 heads. The carts are loaded with weapons, ammunition boxes and grain bags. The mules are all humped on their backs." The goods were transported, covered with canvas, and it was estimated to be food."

The company commander answered truthfully.

"hiss···"

"More than 100 carts, more than 200 big mules? Even the big mules carry grain bags on their backs?"

Even though he was prepared in his heart, Li Yunlong would definitely not be short of supplies this time, but the brigade commander was still horrified.

Taking the mountain horse road here, the kind of cart pulled by a big mule can pull at least [-] kilograms of supplies, and the big mule can carry [-] kilograms of goods on its back. That is to say, Li Yunlong's trip I'm afraid they brought a small hundred tons of supplies.

The independent regiment had a total of more than 200 big mules, and this time they were all pulled out. It was obvious that Li Yunlong's pockets must be full.

It is estimated that Li Yunlong's grain and ammunition added up this time may be two thousand tons less, which is comparable to the previous year's harvest at one time.

"Haha, this kid really got rich this time!"

After thinking for a while, the brigade commander got up and walked to the brigade command room with a smile:
"go!"

"Let's go see this rich man."

······
Inside the brigade.

The brigade commander had just walked into the command room, had just entered the door with his front foot, and hadn't even lifted his back foot. Li Yunlong, who was originally crossing his legs and kicking his hands in his sleeves, subconsciously, at a lightning speed—

Stand up, stand at attention, salute:

"brigadier!"

The subconscious movements of the body, but Li Yunlong was thinking in his heart——

The brigade commander came from behind, and the transport team was in front, and there were still ten miles away from here. He sprinted here on horseback. The brigade commander probably didn't know that he brought the transport team.

Even if he guessed it, he would definitely not be able to guess the scale.

"Hey, Li Yunlong."

Walking into the room, the brigade commander glanced up and down at Li Yunlong.

He has a cropped head, straight back, and sharp eyes. Although he is wearing a torn cotton military uniform with patches and his hat is a little crooked, it can't conceal his spirit.

"It's not bad, you're quite energetic. It seems that after your group broke through, your life is going well."

The brigade commander smiled, with a little satisfaction in his tone.

He was a little worried about the independent group before, but now he was completely relieved when he saw Li Yunlong's appearance.

What kind of leader, there is what kind of regiment.

Looking at Li Yunlong's appearance, it shows that the spirit of the independent regiment has not been broken up, which can cause the morale of ordinary troops to drop greatly, and even reduce the number of staff by half. It has little impact on the morale of the independent regiment, or it has already recovered.

Li Yunlong was not injured either, and he was still able to obtain a large amount of weapons, ammunition and supplies. It would not take long before the independent regiment that had stood firm against the [-] Japanese army for a month would be able to return, even stronger.

"What's the status of the troops now?"

the Brigadier asked afterwards.

"Hey."

Seeing that the topic was on the right track, Li Yunlong immediately changed his tone and sighed:

"Troop morale is fine."

"But you also know that our regiment has suffered heavy losses. The weapons and equipment are not bad, but the loss of personnel is too great."

"The soldiers have been reduced by half, and the grassroots officers have been reduced by almost two-thirds. Even the second battalion commander was injured and is still in the hospital at the headquarters. It will take at least one and a half months to return to the team."

"Now our regiment has a serious shortage of officers, and the combat effectiveness has dropped too much. Shouldn't I come to you for help?"

Li Yunlong directly stated his intention.

"You want an officer?"

the Brigadier asked intentionally.

"Hey hey..."

Leader Li Da laughed:
"Soldiers are fine. Recruits can be filled quickly. Zhao Jiayu's recruitment is very fast, but the officers are very troublesome. You know that our team is full of ordinary people. Before enlisting, they didn't know a single word. The cultural training is not enough at all, it is okay to be a squad leader, but a platoon leader and company commander are somewhat unqualified."

"So, I want to find grassroots officers you want to train at the headquarters, otherwise the independent regiment wants to restore its combat effectiveness."

"Ah."

The brigade commander nodded:
"Indeed, the lack of grassroots officers has a great impact on the combat effectiveness of troops."

"How much do you want?"

Li Yunlong immediately quoted:
"Sixty, I want sixty. As you know, our regiment has a lot of airs, and the loss of officers this time is heavy. Some platoons have rushed to 100 people. There is a big shortage of officers."

Although the price in mind is forty, you can't just quote the low price directly, right?

"Sixty?"

"You kid really knows how to speak like a lion."

The brigade commander's voice suddenly increased:

"Do you think your regiment has lost?"

"The previous mopping up of the devils was the most force mobilized by the devils in history. Not only your regiment, but almost all the troops in our base area have been seriously reduced. The troops with the lowest casualties have also lost nearly one-third of their personnel. They all urgently need grassroots officers. Replenish."

"And the headquarters has also been forced to transfer, and the number of officers trained recently has decreased a lot, and this batch of officers assigned to our brigade has also decreased a lot."

"Don't say sixty, even thirty, twenty, I don't have one either."

"There are so many troops in our brigade, it's impossible for me to give you all of them?"

Sixty officers' requests were rejected, and Li Yunlong was not even going to give twenty.

The brigade commander never talks nonsense, and this sentence must have been said on purpose.

In other words, there are really sixty new officers in this batch?

Then, as long as the price is enough, can we get back [-] officers this time?
"Hey, stop, Brigadier."

Li Yunlong immediately put on a bitter face:

"I don't give you twenty, isn't it embarrassing for you?"

"If you don't give more, a platoon of one hundred people, how can it be managed? I'm afraid I will have to serve as a company commander when I go back, and the recovery of the strength of the troops will be greatly affected."

"This time I attracted more than 1 devils for a month, bought time for the troops in other base areas to transfer, and bombarded the devil's Taiyuan Airport. Please remember our contribution more or less! Give me more points."

"We can't give a full meal to the children who have worked."

Li Yunlong's first price tag directly showed the credit and the selling price.

"It's not that I won't give it to you."

The brigade commander also sighed slightly, and used the same move to deal with Li Yunlong's misery:
"I have no choice. Now all the regiments on my side, although the reduction in personnel is a little better than yours, but the loss of officers is similar to yours, and the loss of equipment is also heavy, and the morale of the troops is greatly affected."

"There is nothing we can do about weapons and equipment for the time being. The arsenal at the headquarters has not yet resumed production. If we don't fill in some officers to improve morale, I'm afraid there will be problems with the morale of the troops."

"You wait first, after this period of time, I will add to you. At that time, I will give you as many junior officers as the headquarters gives me!"

Wait?
We have so many troops, how long will we have to wait?

And three to five months later, the growth of the independent group's strength will be much slower.

Li Yunlong was about to speak, when the brigade commander spoke again: "Also, the base area is facing a serious food problem now, and many troops can't get enough to eat. If we don't give more officers, I'm afraid some troops will fall apart."

Want food!
Want weapons and ammunition!
The brigade commander is telling the truth, without any exaggeration. After the heavy loss of the troops, it is necessary to add something, whether it is people or supplies, and give some new forces to restore the morale of the troops, otherwise the troops will really collapse. .

But Li Yunlong also grasped the key points here.

If you want new officers, yes, just help the brigade headquarters solve these two problems, and the sixty company and platoon officers will be yours.

"It's simple."

Leader Li's business immediately improved, even with a little embarrassment:
"Although we lost a lot this time, the harvest is not small. I can still get a lot of food, weapons and ammunition. Hehehe, especially the food, this time it is a bumper harvest."

"Oh?"

The brigade commander said with a smile:

"If you can get some weapons, ammunition and food, which can also help the troops recover their strength and morale, then I can decide to give you more junior officers."

"Row."

Li Yunlong directly asked the price. Of course, he gritted his teeth pretendingly: "Give me all the sixty officers of yours, and I can bring out [-] tons of grain, [-] machine guns, [-] rounds of machine gun bullets, [-] German Create big tumors."

Four hundred tons!
Plus so many weapons and ammunition.

For sixty officers!

As soon as the price came out, the brigade commander was so surprised that he almost nodded in agreement.

He now has 160 junior officers, all of whom can directly serve as company and platoon officers. According to this price, if all of them are replaced, the grain will increase by [-] tons.

Good guy, all the food and weapons problems of their brigade have been solved at once, and there is even a surplus!

So fucking rich.

Cursing secretly in his heart, the brigade commander controlled his expression.

"Sixty, no, at your price, I'll give you fifty at most. This is already the limit. You have to save some for other troops." The brigade commander said in an unquestionable tone.

Satisfied is satisfied, but the price still has to be lowered. After all, the situation is exactly as he said. The grassroots officers suffered a lot in this raid, and even many battalion commanders were sacrificed.

"Brigade Commander, I will add another hundred tons, and all sixty officers will be given to me."

Li Yunlong raised the price tag. Of course, this was originally planned for the brigade department.

[-] tons of food for the brigade, [-] tons for the logistics department at the headquarters, and the rest to support Ding Wei and Kong Jie.

"This···"

The brigade commander seemed to hesitate for a while, but of course, he was actually shocked.

Li Yunlong immediately threw out the last card:

"You have also seen the action of the little devil this time. I have become a thorn in the side of the little devil. I used [-] troops and heavy artillery to attack our regiment's base. This time I was not eliminated. The devil will definitely continue to target the independent regiment in the future."

"I have to recover my strength as soon as possible to deal with the devil's attack, and the sooner our strength recovers, the more we can go out and earn something back, right?"

Li Yunlong's words seemed to have really moved the brigade commander, and the brigade commander fell into deep thought with a serious expression on his face.

Li Yunlong was overjoyed. It seemed that he was right. The devil's actions this time made the brigade commander very worried about the safety of his independent regiment.

"Is your regiment planning to restore the previous size?"

asked the Brigadier suddenly.

"Correct."

Li Yunlong nodded:

"Including the cavalry battalion, 5000 people."

"How many officers are missing?"

"The minimum requirement, if there is no deputy company commander, is [-] or [-]."

After pondering for a while, the brigade commander lowered his voice:
"If you can get 160 tons of food, I can get you [-] grassroots officers who will take up their duties immediately. They are all newly trained and have at least two years of veterans who can directly command the troops."

"I'll give you three more tank soldiers and four car soldiers, all of whom have served in foreign troops."

Li Yunlong was stunned and even moved for a moment.

160 officers!

Also directly in place!
Doesn't it mean that the independent regiment has recovered to 5000 people, or even 6000 people? There is no problem at all?
Plus three tank soldiers and four car soldiers.

With the current shortage of officers everywhere in the army, even the brigade commander would have to work hard to get them.

"it is good."

"I'll bring the food over in a while."

Li Yunlong stopped bargaining, and immediately agreed, and then said in a vigilant tone:

"But Brigadier, don't frame me."

There are 160 grassroots officers, and it may take several months for the training class at the headquarters to come out.

hiss····

Li Yunlong's direct consent made the brigade commander, including Staff Officer Luo, take a deep breath. The two thousand tons was purely a lion's mouth. I thought Li Yunlong would lower the price, but he actually agreed directly.

And looking at the tone, can it be delivered soon?
The two then looked at each other, and a thought flashed through their minds.

How many good things did this dog get this time?
"When did I lie to you?"

The Brigadier raised his tone:
"Okay, I'll give you 160 officers, and you'll get me [-] tons of food, as well as those weapons and ammunition, but the ugly thing is that you must not violate the discipline of the army when you buy food. No matter how much credit you have, I will shoot you straight away."

"Don't worry about this."

Li Yunlong patted his chest.
