Chapter 61 Three Rules (Second Update! Please Subscribe First)

Yangcun.

Li Yunlong, happily, just arrived at the village entrance.

"Li Yunlong, I congratulate you on getting rich!"

A familiar voice rang in Li Yunlong's ears like a thunderclap, almost scaring Old Li to death!

"Brigade Commander, why are you here too?" Li Yunlong said stutteringly, looking at a vague shadow in front of him.

"Why, I shouldn't have come?" the brigade commander asked in a serious tone.

Li Yunlong's face froze, and he, who was usually eloquent, was suddenly speechless.

"Haha, there will be a day when you, Li Yunlong, are speechless. I'm not kidding you. This time I came to Yangcun and saw the changes in the independent regiment. Li Yunlong, I want to recommend you for credit!" The brigade commander smiled and said to Li Yunlong in a serious tone.

"At the same time, we must also commend and celebrate the achievements of the comrades of the Independent Regiment! Comrades, you have worked hard today. Thank you for showing the power of our Eighth Route Army!"

"Thank you, Brigade Commander! Thank you for your hard work, leaders!" Li Yunlong felt relieved when he saw that it was not a bad thing.

"Nonsense! Comrades, the comrades who stayed behind in the village have prepared hot meals for everyone. After you put the spoils away, let's have a good meal together!" The brigade commander said loudly, looking at the dark group of people. Among them, he vaguely saw that there were a few people who were carried back. The brigade commander's heart skipped a beat, and he took a closer look and found that these wounded were still able to move, so he felt relieved.

"Thank you, Chief!" In the team, starting from Zhang Dabiao, everyone had been working hard all day, and they immediately became excited when they heard these words!
It’s even more exciting than the request for credit I just heard!

"How are the casualties?" The brigade commander pulled Li Yunlong aside and asked while Zhang Dabiao was taking his men to place the spoils.

"Eight were seriously injured and more than ten were slightly injured. All of them were injured in the Chencun battle." Li Yunlong replied.

The puppet troops in Chencun did not make a collective decision to surrender like the ones in Lizhuang, because some of the puppet troops in Chencun lived in a separate barracks, while others lived together with the Japanese in the same squad. It was the Japanese in this squad who were awakened when Zhang Dabiao and his men fired their searchlights, which made them alert and forced a platoon of puppet troops who lived together with them to organize a defense.

After the artillery tower was taken down, this small team of Japanese devils launched a fierce battle with the first company!

Fortunately, the company's firepower at this moment is far greater than when they faced Yamamoto's special forces. In addition to the all-powerful Type 5 rifles, the assault squad also has 6 machine guns, and the Type rifles that the machine gun platoon had just assembled in Lizhuang!

The powerful firepower suppressed the Japanese in that squad, and only at the cost of more than 20 people being injured did they capture the resisting Japanese and a platoon of puppet troops!

"Li Yunlong, the brigade will commend you for this operation, but it's not because you destroyed two artillery towers, but because your independent regiment built an unscrupulous artillery!" After listening, the brigade commander patted Li Yunlong on the shoulder and said, "But the experience of destroying the Lizhuang and Chencun artillery towers is also worth summarizing and promoting. Next, you and Kong Jie should compile the battle experience into a document and submit it to me for review. We will distribute it to the entire brigade and even all the main forces in our Taihang base! Do a good job. I will not share the spoils of this time. I will leave them all to your independent regiment. Hurry up and build a main force regiment for me."

"Yes! Brigade Commander! Thank you, Brigade Commander!" Li Yunlong had a bitter face at first, but after hearing the last sentence, his face immediately turned from cloudy to sunny and he saluted happily.

But he didn't know that the brigade commander was just trying to save face for his boss Ren Zhongren. It was just that the information was asymmetric, and Li Yunlong didn't know that many cases of the brigade commander stealing homes had already happened in Yangcun during the day. Otherwise, he wouldn't be so happy.

The brigade commander rarely stayed in Yangcun. After Li Yunlong and his companions had eaten and drunk their fill, the brigade commander called Li Yunlong, Kong Jie and Ren Zhong over.

"Li Yunlong, it's too late today to ask you to come here to discuss matters, but I have to leave early tomorrow morning, so I can only explain everything to you tonight." The brigade commander didn't beat around the bush and went straight to the point.

"Your achievements in the military industry are amazing, and they are crucial to our next move. Therefore, I called the three of you, including Boss Ren, here tonight to tell you that your main focus from now on is not to fight the Japanese, but to go all out in military production and increase the production of explosives, bullets, and unscrupulous artillery to the highest level!"

"Especially you, Li Yunlong. Even though you now have a powerful weapon to attack the artillery tower, from today on, you cannot attack new artillery towers without my order!"

Li Yunlong and Kong Jie were very puzzled by the brigade commander's words, but Ren Zhong, who had already learned about the Eighth Route Army's anti-Japanese war in advance, understood it clearly.

This is the brigade commander's preparation for the upcoming major counterattack launched by the Eighth Route Army Headquarters.

"Brigade Commander, why? I will just take a company out and knock down one artillery tower at a time. I can hand over the spoils to the brigade headquarters, right?" Li Yunlong, who did not understand the strategy of the Eighth Route Army headquarters, asked unwillingly.

"Don't ask why! The independent regiment is not allowed to carry out military operations above the platoon level before receiving my latest order!" The brigade commander interrupted Li Yunlong, "This is an order. Anyone who violates the order will be dismissed and investigated!"

Li Yunlong wanted to say something, but Ren Zhong stopped him and said, "Old Li, we should start mining next. Don't forget that the mine we found needs to be mined so that we can expand our sulfuric acid and steel production. The Yangcun Steel Plant will keep you busy next."

"What? You are planning to build a steel mill?" The brigade commander heard the mystery and immediately forgot what he was talking about. He asked hurriedly.

Ren Zhong had wanted to tell the brigade commander or the headquarters about this information a long time ago. After all, Ren Zhong knew that the arsenal at the headquarters was in dire need of steel. They had no ability to smelt iron on their own and basically relied on pulling up railroad tracks and collecting scrap iron to meet the arsenal's steel needs.

Now Ren Zhong knows that the next major counterattack is about to begin, and the demand for weapons and ammunition is indeed very huge. It is completely unrealistic to rely on Yangcun. The only way is to release all the production capacity of the headquarters arsenal.

"Yes, Brigade Commander, we are planning to build a small blast furnace that can produce about 10 tons of pig iron per day. The design is already in place, and we are just waiting to build it and then start mining. This time, Captain Li and his men took out two Japanese strongholds, not just to test our unscrupulous artillery, but to pull out the enemy's nails around the mine near Liujia Village, and then to defeat the traitor forces in Liujia Village and start mining!" Ren Zhong said.

He knew clearly that in order to open the mine smoothly, he must have the strong support of the brigade commander to ensure the safety of the area around Yangcun in the short term and resist the Japanese raids.

After all, the current strength of the independent regiment is still not enough to defeat the Japanese and puppet troops in Yuping County.

Once the news leaked out, the mines in Liujia Village would inevitably be coveted by the Japanese.

"Li Yunlong! Listen to me carefully. I have three rules for you. First, this steel plant must be built as soon as possible, the sooner the better! If you fail to do so, I will kill you! Second, you must produce 20 unscrupulous cannons and supporting ammunition for me. If you have one less, I will kill you! Third, unless the safety of the steel plant and the military factory is involved, you are not allowed to go to war. If you go to war, I will kill you regardless of the outcome!" The brigade commander put a tight ring around Li Yunlong in a stern tone!
