I'm killing enemies with my sword and exploding equipment

Chapter 430: Want me to go to the core group? I dont go!

It is said that Chu Yunfei was in Heyuan County. After asking Li Yunlong to steal 2 kilograms of grain, he led the 358th Regiment to withdraw to Xipan Town.

As soon as he returned to Xipan Town, he received a piece of news that made him overjoyed——

The Second Theater Command Chief sent a telegram announcing that the 358th Regiment would be expanded into the 9th Independent Brigade with a strength of 7000 people. He, Chu Yunfei, would serve as the brigade commander!

Seeing this telegram, Chu Yunfei and Fang Ligong were both a little confused.

They haven't accomplished much recently!

They didn’t even hit the damn little devil’s turret!

In the end, we received such a big gift package, which was like a dream.

No matter how many people there are in the 358th Regiment, it is still just a regiment-level unit.

Speaking out, there is no card at all.

Now that it has been expanded into an independent brigade, it can be regarded as a big step up!

The chasm between regimental commander and brigade commander is really difficult for ordinary people to cross!

Fang Ligong quickly congratulated:

"Tuanzuo, ah no, brigadezao, congratulations!

In my opinion, you should have been promoted to Shangfeng a long time ago, and you deserve to be promoted to Brigade now. "

Chu Yunfei originally returned to Xipan Town with a depressed look on his face, but now he couldn't help but smile.

Hearing Fang Ligong's praise, he waved his hand in embarrassment:

"Brother Ligong is so complimentary, Chu is so ashamed that he doesn't deserve it!

It’s really shameful to be promoted suddenly despite having no great merit!

Shame! "

"Captain, it just so happens that we have returned from a long march this time and the soldiers are very tired. Why don't we announce the news and make the soldiers happy?"

Chu Yunfei understood what Fang Ligong meant, which was just to use the good news of the expansion to relieve the complaints from his subordinates and stabilize the morale of the army.

But what he was more curious about was why Yan Laoji wanted to expand himself at this time, so he shook his head and said:

“There’s no rush yet.

I'll send a telegram to Commander Yang first and ask about the situation.

If Shangfeng expands our ranks, I'm afraid there will be tasks for us. "

After hearing this, Fang Ligong nodded.

"I understand."

Immediately, I felt sour in my heart, and thought to myself: It's amazing that you have Commander Yang as your backer!

You can get promoted at any time!

I am so envious!

……

Soon, Chu Yunfei arranged for a telegraph operator to send the report to Yang Xingru.

And Yang Xingru quickly called back.

Chu Yunfei took the telegraph newspaper and couldn't help but let out a long sigh:

"I, Chu Yunfei, am the brigade commander because of Heyuan County!"

There was sourness in his voice.

"Tournament, how do you say this?

Didn’t we miss the opportunity to visit Heyuan County? "

Fang Ligong was curious.

“Huh, the Independent Regiment captured Heyuan County, wiped out more than 6000 Japs, destroyed 8 tanks, 19 aircraft, killed a major general brigade commander, and captured a regiment flag.

Chief Yan felt that the situation in northwest Shanxi was dangerous, so he agreed to expand our strength.

They also asked us to send a regiment to Dagu Town to monitor the movements in Heyuan County after the expansion was completed. "

As he spoke, he handed the telegram in his hand to Fang Ligong.

"what?

Kill more than 6000 people? ?

Isn't this incredible?

Is the independent regiment so powerful in combat? ? ? "

Fang Ligong felt that his jaw was about to drop to the ground, so he quickly picked up the telegram and read it.

"Yeah, it's incredible.

But this record should not be fake.

They attacked Heyuan County, and it was impossible for the Japs not to send reinforcements.

Tank crushing and plane bombing are also reasonable.

I just don’t know what means they have to accomplish such an outrageous feat!

I, Chu Yunfei, am convinced! "

"Brigade, this independent group is too scary.

I'm afraid that even if our independent 9th Brigade completes its expansion, it may not be their opponent! "

Fang Ligong read the telegram at a glance and suddenly felt worried.

In the past, he didn't look down on Tubal Road at all, but now the Independent Regiment's record of wiping out more than 6000 little Japs made him a little desperate.

Not to mention eliminated, even facing more than 6000 little Japs, which regiment in their Jinsui Army dares to say that they are not cowardly?

Not to mention the regiment, even the main division or even an army has to give in!

And their new 9th Brigade has only 7000 people. In front of the independent regiment, I am afraid it is still a younger brother among younger brothers!

"I think back then, when Li Yunlong led his troops to break through the encirclement in Cangyun Ridge, I was already shocked.

Unexpectedly, in just one year, he has not only shocked me, but also made me look up to him.

I, Chu Yunfei, believe that I am not weaker than others, but when facing this Li Yunlong, I have to admire and admire him.

Changing places, I, Chu Yunfei, can't do this! "

Chu Yunfei felt that the excitement of becoming a brigade commander was gone.

How can a man stay depressed and depressed for a long time? ?

Fang Ligong saw that he was a little depressed and quickly comforted him:

"Tourist, there is no need to belittle yourself.

The most urgent task is to get the expansion of the brigade done first.

Just wait until our personnel are fully staffed and the equipment is in place, then we can look for opportunities and make some military exploits. "

"Haha, expand it into a brigade?

Chief Yan’s treatment of me, a fellow Wutai fellow, is really chilling!

He was actually reluctant to give me a major general sign! "

Chu Yunfei sneered.

When he graduated from Huangpu, he refused Lao Chang's solicitation and insisted on returning to his hometown. He was prepared to use what he had learned to reimburse his hometown and protect the peace of his hometown.

But he didn't expect that over the years, he had fought bloody battles and made countless meritorious deeds, but Chief Yan was always on guard against him and was stingy and picky, which really made him a little unhappy.

Even now that the 358th regiment was expanded into a brigade, he was not promoted to military rank, which really left him speechless.

This will make him take the initiative to salute and say hello, sir, when he meets those classmates who are not as good as him in Whampoa Military Academy but have already reached the rank of major general.

You know, this is a war period where lieutenant generals are inferior to dogs and major generals are everywhere!

Even the brigade-level cadres of our army are generally awarded the rank of major general by Lao Chang, and Brigadier Chen, a special brigade commander, is given special care by him and is directly awarded the rank of lieutenant general!

When he thought that he would become a disgraced colonel and brigade commander, Chu Yunfei wished he had to expand his army!

If Yang Xingru hadn't hinted him in the telegram, let him find a relationship with Huangpu classmates, pass a message to Lao Chang, and ask Lao Chang to give him a sign of major general.

He was about to get a telegram back to Mr. Yan immediately saying, "My abilities are limited and I am not qualified to be a brigade commander."

When Fang Ligong saw that Chu Yunfei had a problem with Yan Laojie, he suddenly felt a little embarrassed.

He quickly smoothed things over and said:

"You don't have to worry about this matter. After all, the matter of military rank has to be reported to Guozhou. Maybe Commander Yan has already made arrangements."

Hearing what the other party said, Chu Yunfei couldn't help but give him a sharp look, then he closed his eyes and nodded:

"Well, let's not talk anymore.

I, Chu Yunfei, am not a person who pursues fame and fortune. The colonel and brigade commander should be the colonel and brigade commander.

Brother Ligong, now our brigade is going to expand to three regiments with 3 people. What do you think of the positions of these three regiment leaders? "

Fang Ligong felt trembling in his heart regarding this issue of life-threatening, and wanted to shirk it directly, but when he caught a glimpse of Chu Yunfei's sharp eyes, he changed his mind and said:

"Brigade, now we have 5 battalions, but only 3 positions. This needs to be carefully considered.

This time we marched to Heyuan County, and the performance of each battalion was not very good. I think it is better for the brigade to conduct a half-day march training and determine the candidate for the regiment leader based on the performance of each battalion, so that everyone will have no objections. "

After hearing this answer, Chu Yunfei nodded repeatedly:

"Okay! That's a great idea!

Then we won’t announce our expansion until we finish the marching training tomorrow! "

"Yes!"

……

Chu Yunfei thought well, but he didn't realize that his telecommunications room was not impenetrable!

Soon someone with knowledge learned about the news that the 358th Regiment was going to be expanded into a brigade, and even more about the establishment of three regiments.

So the next day, when Chu Yunfei suddenly announced that he would conduct marching training, all of his battalions were proactive, and their performance was completely different from the previous trip to Heyuan County.

Seeing this situation, Chu Yunfei didn't know that the news had been leaked, and couldn't help but feel very unhappy.

He believed that Fang Ligong was not the one who leaked the secret, so it must be the fault of the telecommunications room.

I wish I could kill those lax-talking bastards in the telecommunications room on the spot. However, the expansion was imminent and he could not delay. In the end, he had no choice but to appoint First Battalion Commander Qian Bojun, Third Battalion Commander Zheng Guangcai and Fourth Battalion Commander Guan Daxiong as the leaders of the three infantry regiments based on their marching performance.

Then the work of army expansion began.

……

Taiyue area, 772 regiment.

Regiment commander Cheng Huankang felt very satisfied after inspecting the training of the artillery battalion.

His artillery battalion now has two Type 2 infantry guns, two Jin-made 2mm mortars, two Little Devil 82mm mortars, and six 2mm mortars.

Although it can't be compared with the division commander's artillery battalion, which mainly consists of mountain artillery and Type 92 infantry artillery, it can still be considered to have sufficient artillery.

And although there are not too many artillery shells, there are still hundreds of rounds in total, which is enough to fight several large-scale blocking battles.

It can be said that these guns and shells have allowed the 772nd Regiment to firmly secure its position as the top main regiment of our army.

After returning to his regiment headquarters from the training ground, he received a call from the brigade commander:

"Cheng Huankang, select one of your battalion commanders to go to northwest Shanxi to serve as deputy commander."

Upon hearing this, Cheng Huankang quickly asked curiously:

"Brigadier Commander, isn't Li Yunlong's independent regiment over there in northwest Shanxi?

Could it be that their group is missing a deputy leader? "

He secretly wondered: Wasn't the deputy leader of the Independent Regiment that guy Xing Zhiguo? Did they die this time when they attacked the county town?

That's an old comrade, what a pity!

"no.

This is the special agent battalion under Li Yunlong. I plan to upgrade it to a special agent regiment, so I will send an experienced military cadre to them to strengthen their military command. "

"what?

Li Yunlong's battalion was upgraded to a regiment?

Then wouldn't Li Yunlong's independent regiment be upgraded to a brigade? "

Cheng Huankang suddenly felt a little heartbroken.

His 772nd regiment is obviously the main numbered regiment, but now its weapons and equipment cannot compare with Li Yunlong's core regiment, and it can't even compare with its organizational level!

This gap was completely unacceptable to him.

He felt uncomfortable when he thought about calling Li Yunlong's naughty guy Li Yunlong and calling him Brigadier Li.

Why did he, Li Datou, climb on his head?

Just because he joined the army a few months earlier than me?

That doesn't make sense!

"It's not a brigade. I want to form a military division in the northwest region of Shanxi. Li Yunlong will serve as the commander of the military division."

The brigade commander explained.

Hearing that he was just a military division commander, Cheng Huankang finally felt better.

But when he thought about giving away his key battalion commander, he was a little unhappy.

Who is not short of military cadres now?

The troops are expanding all the time, and there are shortages of people everywhere!

He quickly said:

"Brigadier Commander, our regiment is also in short supply of military cadres. Last time you took 15 company and platoon-level cadres from our regiment!"

"Hmph, Cheng Huankang, don't bargain with me!

Didn’t I give you two Type 81 infantry cannons and two Japanese mm mortars when I whipped you last time?

Are you still not satisfied?

Why don't you return the cannon and shells to me, and I'll recruit people from other regiments to supply you? "

The brigade commander put his complaints back in a few words.

“Brigadier, that’s not what I meant.

I'm satisfied, satisfied! "

Cheng Huankang was about to cry. Those four cannons were now the main force in his artillery camp. If he were to return them, his liver would hurt!

"Humph, as long as you are satisfied!

You are limited to sending someone to the brigade headquarters to report within three days, do you understand? "

The brigade commander said, his tone becoming very stern.

When Cheng Huankang heard this, his heart suddenly trembled, and he quickly stood at attention and agreed.

"Yes! I'll arrange it right away!"

Seeing that this guy was honest, the brigade commander gave him another sweet date:

"Don't worry, I transferred your people. It will be beneficial if you look back. Of course I won't forget your group!"

"Yes! Thank you, Brigadier!"

……

After hanging up the brigade commander's call, Cheng Huankang carefully counted the people he had at the regiment headquarters. Finally, after discussing with his political commissar, he called the fourth battalion commander Zhan Haishan.

He was only the deputy battalion commander before. Two months ago, he was promoted because the commander of the fourth battalion died.

Among Cheng Huankang's several battalion commanders, he was the only one who was relatively new, and his ability and experience were slightly inferior.

——Obviously, although Cheng Huankang had to listen to the brigade commander's order, he still chose to deal with it with the weakest battalion commander.

"Captain, are you looking for me?"

Zhan Haishan is about 26 or 27 years old, thin, short, with a purple face. He has been in the army for seven or eight years.

"Well, Haishan, your superiors are going to promote you to deputy captain.

What do you think? "

Cheng Huankang sighed.

I thought to myself: Now that Zhan Haishan is gone, I don’t know if the deputy commander of the fourth battalion can hold up the strength of the fourth battalion.

Zhan Haishan is an honest man. He was extremely surprised when he heard that he had been promoted to deputy battalion commander in less than three months, battalion commander in less than two months, and now he was promoted to deputy regimental commander.

This promotion is too fast!

It’s a bit uncomfortable!

He waved his hands repeatedly and said:

"Captain, I haven't understood it yet as the battalion commander, how can I be the deputy commander?

And if I become the deputy commander, what will Deputy Commander Wang do? "

Deputy Commander Wang of the 772nd Regiment was a fierce warrior, but he was deeply admired and respected by all the soldiers in the regiment. Of course, he, Zhan Haishan, was not willing to steal his opponent's position.

And he feels that he is not qualified enough!

"Haishan, this is an organizational arrangement.

And I don’t want you to be the deputy commander of our 772nd regiment. "

"Ah, Captain, are you going to transfer me?

But I don’t want to leave our group! "

Zhan Haishan was very surprised, and then his face was full of reluctance.

"Well, the brigade commander wants to upgrade a special agent battalion of Li Yunlong's independent regiment to a special agent regiment. There is a shortage of cadres, so he wants to send you as the deputy commander."

Cheng Huankang explained.

"What? Independent group?

Leader, they are a core group!

I dont go! "

Zhan Haishan jumped anxiously on the spot.

Obviously the battalion commander of the main force group is doing a good job, why should he go to the basic group!

The deputy commander is half a level higher than the battalion commander, but so what?

There is no formal establishment. If you tell me, no one will recognize you!

You know, in the numbered regiment, from top to bottom, they are all registered with Lao Chang, and have military ranks and corresponding military pay.

Although Lao Chang has not received any military pay recently, it is impossible to take away his military rank and social status unless Lao Chang directly turns against him.

But the basic group is different. It is completely a gangster, and no one except our army itself recognizes it.

Of course he didn't want to go.

"What happened to the core group?

Haishan, Li Yunlong is really good at getting equipment. Even though they are a basic group, their equipment is better than ours.

You won't suffer any loss if you go.

You see, they just won such a big victory, and the boss will definitely praise them later. "

Cheng Huankang persuaded.

"Captain, I think our 772nd Group is pretty good.

Isn’t it just a matter of winning a battle once in a while?

What's so great about it?

Our 772nd regiment has won many battles, right?

And the battles we fight are all tough and dangerous battles! "

"Haishan, your ideological consciousness needs to be improved!

The fraternal troops have won the battle, and our entire army should be happy.

Now the political commissar and I agree that it is very appropriate to send you to work in northwest Shanxi. Do you want to refuse the arrangement? "

Although Cheng Huankang was satisfied that Zhan Haishan was unwilling to leave, he had to obey the brigade commander's order.

So you still have to beat each other.

Hearing him talk about the issue of ideological consciousness, Zhan Haishan suddenly felt a chill in his heart. He immediately stood upright and replied loudly:

"Captain, since the organization has made a decision, I will obey the organization's arrangements!"

"it is good!

You go pack your things immediately, report to the brigade headquarters first, and then follow the brigade commander's arrangements! "

"Yes!"

……

Two days later, Zhan Haishan took a guard, carried a backpack, and rode to the brigade headquarters to report to the brigade commander.

After the brigade commander explained to him carefully, he asked him to set off for northwestern Shanxi.
