Bright Sword: I am an undercover agent in the puppet army

Chapter 33 Li Yunlong gave himself a promotion and wanted to become a brigade commander

358th Regiment Headquarters.

The communications soldiers were busy going in and out, constantly reporting the latest battle situation on the front line.

Fang Ligong looked at the sand table topographic map in front of him and said, "Commander, it seems that we have really overestimated the enemy's strength. These puppet troops are just a bunch of chickens and dogs, just like you said, and they are vulnerable!
More than an hour has passed, and they still haven't organized a decent attack that can threaten our position."

Chu Yunfei said with a straight face: "Don't be careless, the Japanese invaders haven't made a move yet, they are our army's real opponent.

If the soldiers on the front line all thought like this, they would have fallen into the devil's trap.

Give orders to all battalions to be on high alert, especially the Second Battalion, to guard against the sudden entry of the Japanese invaders into the battle!"

"Yes!"

Fang Ligong stood up with a serious face and saluted, then turned around and left to make a phone call himself.

……

The Japanese attacked the position.

Kasahara Koizumi's main attack was on the position of the Second Battalion of the 358th Regiment, watching the machine gun fire gradually exposed on the position of the Second Battalion.

A sinister smile appeared on the old devil's face. He didn't expect that his bunch of useless puppet troops could defeat the 358th Regiment and seize the enemy's position.

Instead, they treated the puppet troops as an exploratory attack force to lure out the important firepower points of the 358th Regiment.

Kasahara Koizumi put down the telescope in his hand and asked Ono Koji, the captain of the artillery squadron directly under the regiment, "Mr. Ono, have you recorded the coordinates of the exposed firing points of the Chinese army?"

"Hi!" Ono Koji bowed his head heavily and said, "Everything has been recorded!"

"Yoshi!" Kasahara Koizumi nodded with satisfaction: "We can launch the bombardment now."

"Hi Yi!"

Koji Ono bowed his head again, then turned to face the artillery position, raised the command flag in his hand, and gave the order to fire using flag signals.

Kasahara Koizumi said to the captain of the second battalion, Kameda Hirofumi, "Kameda-kun, after the bombardment is over, immediately launch an attack on the front line of the 358th Regiment. We must win the battle in one fell swoop, seize the enemy's position, and eliminate all the Chinese soldiers on the position!"

"Hi Yi!"

Hirofumi Kameda bowed his head heavily, then turned and left, went down the slope and headed straight for the rest area of ​​the Second Battalion.

……

The top of the main peak of Cangyunling.

Kong Jie, deputy head of the independent regiment, put down the telescope in his hand and said with little interest: "What is the devil up to? They sent out so many troops, but it turned out to be a lot of noise but little action. After fighting for so long, they only show us this?"

Kong Jie has received news that the 386th Brigade is planning to form a new Second Regiment. Although it has not yet been announced who will be appointed as the regiment commander, everyone knows that this new Second Regiment is tailor-made for Kong Jie.

Because in the entire 386th Brigade, there is no one with higher qualifications and abilities than him.

Therefore, Kong Jie was eager to make achievements and gain recognition from the leaders, so as to secure his position as the leader of the New Second Regiment. At the same time, he also wanted to accumulate as much assets as possible for the New Second Regiment.

Ding Wei, the commander of the New 1st Regiment, and Li Yunlong, the commander of the Independent Regiment, were not in a hurry.

Ding Wei said: "The Japanese made such a big scene, it's obviously not for fun. Lao Kong, didn't you realize that those who participated in the attack were all puppet troops, and the Japanese haven't taken action yet?

There will definitely be some excitement next.”

Li Yunlong echoed, "That's right. If you ask me, the most important thing for us now is to clarify the issue of command authority."

"Command authority?" Ding Weidiamine asked, "What's the problem with command authority?"

Li Yunlong: "As the old saying goes, a snake cannot survive without a head. Next, our two regiments will fight together. If there is no one to make the overall decision, and we fight on our own, our combat effectiveness will inevitably be greatly reduced."

Kong Jie said unhappily, "Old Ding, can't you hear it? Old Li wants to promote himself and satisfy his desire to be a brigade commander."

Ding Wei was incredulous and said, "Old Li, do you want me to obey your orders?"

Li Yunlong smiled and said, "Hey! Isn't this a special situation? Besides, we are friends, so you just pretend to be nice to each other, but we should discuss it privately."

Kong Jie was not happy: "You two should discuss it together, what about me?" "It's all the same, all the same." Li Yunlong said with a smile: "Let's discuss it together. Isn't this how we fought in the previous battles?"

Kong Jie had a stern face. He didn't believe Li Yunlong's nonsense. When there was no war, his words sounded nice and they talked about it together. But as soon as the war started, the whole independent regiment would listen to him as soon as the gunshots were heard.

Ding Wei naturally couldn't agree to Li Yunlong's unreasonable request: "No, even if we fight together, I should be the one in charge!"

Li Yunlong argued: "I have my reasons for recommending myself.

First of all, the combat effectiveness of our independent regiment is stronger than that of the New 1st Regiment. Secondly, I was originally the commander of the New 1st Regiment. I am familiar with the cadres and soldiers of the New 1st Regiment, and it is easy for me to command them and I will not be unfamiliar with them.

Moreover, we have fought in the Cangyun Ridge and Cangyun Town areas, so we are more familiar with the surrounding terrain.

Therefore, it is natural for me to be the one who makes the big decision.”

Ding Wei: "Come on, Lao Li, if you hadn't made a mistake, would the boss have fired you from your position as the leader of the New 1st Regiment? Do you think you can make big decisions and lead everyone to continue making mistakes?
So, I, Ding Wei, am the most suitable person to make the final decision."

Kong Jie simply shut his mouth.

He was not qualified to make major decisions even when he was in the Independent Regiment, let alone now.

Li Yunlong: "We'll split the spoils 50-50!"

"to make!"

This bastard can't refuse.

Ding Wei gritted his teeth and finally bowed to reality.

There was no way. After the battle of Cangyunling, although the backbone of the New 60st Regiment was still there, the manpower loss was more than %, and a lot of weapons and equipment were also lost.

Although Ding Wei had recruited some new soldiers in the past month and restored some combat effectiveness, it was still far from being comparable to the powerful independent regiment.

If he fights alone, the benefits he gets will definitely be less than if he fights together.

However, Kong Jie standing by was not happy with this: "You two bastards, we'll split the spoils 50-50, what about me?"

Lao Li: "Isn't your new second regiment commander still a nobody? Besides, if the brigade really formed a new second regiment for you, would they provide you with weapons and equipment?"

Kong Jie: "Are you kidding me? Everyone knows that when we form a new unit, the brigade headquarters will at most give us some backbones and a small number of soldiers. We need to figure out the rest, whether it's personnel or weapons and equipment, by ourselves.

If I don't get some stock now, will you be willing to give me some of the soldiers and weapons of the independent regiment when the time comes?"

Li Yunlong naturally couldn't agree: "Then Lao Ding and I will each give you 10%, 40% to 20%."

Kong Jie stopped talking.

He is now just a deputy regiment commander. If he wants to lead troops to fight on the front line, he still has to look at Lao Li's mood. He is already very satisfied with 20% of the spoils.

"Sure." Ding Wei also wanted to promote his old comrade, so he agreed as well.

After a pause, Ding Wei continued, "But there is one thing. I, Ding Wei, also want to save face. This is the only time I will discuss the right of command. This will not happen again. You are not allowed to mention it again in the future."

"Don't mention it, I promise not to mention it in the future."

Li Yunlong said one thing and meant another, his mouth almost stretched to his ears.

After the first time, are you afraid that there won’t be a second time?

"Boom!"

"Boom, boom, boom!——"

Suddenly, a devastating explosion was heard from several kilometers away.

Kong Jie raised his head and looked at the front line of the 358th Regiment with his telescope: "Lao Li, Lao Ding, the Japanese are firing, they are serious!"
