Chapter 197 Analysis by the Deputy Chief of General Staff: The New First Regiment has made great achievements and is developing rapidly! (More updates, please subscribe)

The boss was troubled by the plan to deal with Li Yunlong's new regiment.

You said Li Yunlong did not complete the mission content of the military order?

In fact, a regiment of more than 4,000 people is already considered a reinforced regiment.

It's not just an ordinary main force group.

The main force usually consists of about two thousand people.

A standard group consists of about 1500 people.

A regiment of 4,000 people is definitely a reinforced regiment.

Most importantly, Li Yunlong assembled a team of more than 4,000 people in three months, which is quite impressive.

If the independent battalion had not attacked the 4th Brigade and lost more than a thousand people, the current strength of the New 1st Regiment would conservatively be estimated at 6,000 people.

Even under such circumstances, the New 1st Regiment still has 4,000 people and eight battalions.

It is very rare to develop so quickly under such circumstances.

But you said that Li Yunlong completed the military order mission, right?

It's definitely not finished.

After all, the New 1st Regiment only has more than 4,000 people now, which cannot reach the goal of a reinforced regiment of more than 5,000 people as stipulated in the military order.

This is indeed a problem.

The deputy chief of staff was silent for a moment, then looked at the boss and said, "Boss...then I'll just say what I want to say!"

Boss: "Old Zuo...we are just seeing each other, why are you being polite? Just say it if you have something to say!"

The Deputy Chief of Staff nodded and said, "Well... Boss... Regarding this matter... this is what I think!"

"First of all, Li Yunlong's New 1st Regiment has grown from only 200 to 300 people to more than 4,000 people in just three months... This ability and achievement is worthy of recognition!"

"Looking at our Eighth Route Army, there is really no other unit that can develop so fast!"

"And this is not a simple ragtag force, but a well-equipped and well-trained regular combat force!"

Three months... from two to three hundred people to more than four thousand people... eight battalions... this is indeed amazing.

The boss nodded and agreed with this.

This combat report of the new regiment not only includes the number of troops, combat experience, etc., but also the equipment status of each unit.

The number of mortars, heavy machine guns, light machine guns, rifles, grenades, etc. is recorded very clearly.

Except for Su Zheng who submitted the records with some reservations, all other battalions and departments reported truthfully.

Therefore, the general and the deputy chief of staff can know the equipment situation of the new regiment by reading the combat summary report.

As a reinforced regiment with more than 4,000 people, the New 1st Regiment is well-equipped with a large number of mortars, heavy machine guns, light machine guns, etc.

Well-equipped troops like the Independent Battalion have heavy weapons such as Italian cannons and Type 92 infantry guns.

Therefore, the new regiment is definitely well-equipped.

Moreover, Su Zheng's independent battalion was still concealing something and did not report the two heavy weapons, the Gatling M134 machine gun and the Barrett sniper rifle.

In addition, there was no mention of the arsenal in the independent battalion’s combat report.

Therefore, the general manager, the deputy chief of general staff, and Li Yunlong were all unaware of the existence of the arsenal.

If they knew that the independent battalion also had an arsenal that could produce American equipment, they would definitely be even more surprised and shocked.

Then the new regiment is not just well-equipped, but also self-sufficient.

The deputy chief of staff looked at the general and continued, "The new regiment has been able to develop so rapidly in such a short period of time. This must have a lot to do with Li Yunlong!"

"Secondly... I want to say that... in the past three months, the New 1st Regiment has also achieved a lot of military merits and fought a lot of ambushes and battles, big and small!"

"Don't mention other troops, just call it an independent battalion!"

"The battle of Qili Town killed a Japanese major general, the battle of Wanjia Town annihilated the Japanese puppet army and robbed the Japanese supplies, the battle of Taiping POW camp rescued a lot of prisoners, the battle of Lijiapo protected the logistics base... and recently annihilated the 4th Brigade and the Japanese battlefield observation group... These are all major battles and major military achievements, which can be regarded as outstanding military achievements!"

"The Independent Battalion is affiliated with the New 1st Regiment, so Li Yunlong naturally has a share of these military achievements!"

"This is just the big battle fought by the independent battalion. Not to mention the small ambushes... and the ambushes and encirclement battles fought by the various units of the New 1st Regiment, which also wiped out a lot of Japanese and puppet troops!"

The first, second, third and other battalions of the new regiment were also very busy during these three months and fought in many battles.

For example, Zhang Dabiao once led a battalion to ambush a Japanese squadron and eventually wiped out more than a hundred devils.

This is also a significant achievement.

So...during these three months, the New 1st Regiment fought many battles, big and small, and killed many Japanese and puppet troops.

As the head of the regiment, Li Yunlong naturally has some credit for these.

Of course...in the entire New 1st Regiment...Su Zheng's independent battalion achieved the most outstanding results.

The general nodded and said, "Indeed... the New 1st Regiment has indeed made a lot of military achievements and achieved considerable results in the past three months of development... This is worthy of recognition!"

The deputy chief of staff paused, then continued, "Boss... Finally, I want to say that the New 1st Regiment is now in its ascendant period!"

"Under the leadership of Li Yunlong, the New 1st Regiment has grown from 200 to 300 people to more than 4,000 people. The troops are in a period of rapid development!"

"If we severely punish Li Yunlong at this time, it will curb the development of the New 1st Regiment!"

"Besides... this Li Yunlong is indeed a good candidate for being a regiment commander. He is good at developing troops... and marching and fighting."

The old man finally heard it, looked up at the deputy chief of staff and said, "You are speaking well of Li Yunlong!"

The deputy chief of staff smiled and said, "Boss... please don't wrongly accuse me... I am not speaking well of Li Yunlong... I am just being realistic!"

"What I said is all true. I haven't exaggerated it, and I can't say anything nice about it."

The boss nodded.

This is indeed the case.

The development of the new regiment indeed exceeded the expectations of the general and deputy chief of general staff.

But...the problem is...the new regiment is now a reinforced regiment with less than 5,000 people.

Boss: "Then...then why don't you deal with Li Yunlong?"

"No... We have to deal with Li Yunlong anyway, otherwise we won't be able to explain to our superiors or subordinates!"

"He did not complete the mission assigned by the military order, and he must be dealt with!"

Deputy Chief of General Staff: "Boss... whether this has fulfilled the military order... is actually a matter of opinion!"

"Before Su Zheng's independent battalion attacked the Fourth Brigade, the New First Regiment must have had more than 5,000 people... Li Yunlong can also say that he completed the mission ahead of schedule!"

"If Li Yunlong said so...there is absolutely nothing wrong with it!"

"Although the New 1st Regiment now has only 4,000 people, which is 1,000 less than the content of the military order, they have made so many military achievements and eliminated so many Japanese puppet troops in the past three months. Does it really matter whether there are 1,000 people or not?"

".々We, the Eighth Route Army, are recruiting troops to fight the Japanese invaders, right? We are not recruiting troops to be used as vases!"

"So it's quite normal that there were more than a thousand casualties in the battle!"

"Even if you, the boss, don't punish Li Yunlong... I believe no one in the entire army would dare to say a word of gossip. You are just doing your job!"

"If anyone has the guts to gossip, let him expand a force of two or three hundred people to more than four thousand people within three months and see if he has the ability to do it!"

What the Deputy Chief of General Staff said does make sense.

Three months later...the new regiment did not have more than 5,000 people.

But before that, the new regiment already had more than 5,000 people.

This can be said to be the completion of the military order mission ahead of schedule.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with this.

In addition, the New 1st Regiment had made so many military achievements during these three months, which could offset the demerits and allow Li Yunlong to avoid punishment.

Therefore, as the Deputy Chief of General Staff said, even if the boss did not punish Li Yunlong, no one would dare to gossip.

If anyone really has objections, they can just learn from Li Yunlong: give him two or three hundred people and three months to develop the two or three hundred people into more than four thousand people.

This is extremely difficult.

After all, in the process of the development of this army, the army needs to solve its own problems of manpower, weapons and equipment, food, etc.... These problems are very difficult problems.

Therefore, it is very rare that Li Yunlong was able to expand his troops to more than 4,000 people, and they were well-equipped and well-trained.

The boss nodded again and said, "Old Zuo... I admit that what you said makes sense, and it is true!"

"But you also know Li Yunlong's character. If you don't give him a warning, he will definitely get into trouble again."

"If this time we don't punish him but reward him, won't his tail be lifted to the sky?"

The Deputy Chief of General Staff also agreed with the boss's words. People like Li Yunlong really need to be taught a lesson and not allowed to act recklessly, otherwise they will often cause trouble.

But how to deal with this is another question.

The punishment cannot be too severe...too severe will hit the development of the new group.

But we cannot not punish him...If we don't punish him, Li Yunlong's tail will be raised.

The boss and the deputy chief of staff both became a little worried.

Anyway, according to the boss's opinion, Li Yunlong has to be punished to some extent.

Hit Li Yunlong, don't let him get away with it.

After thinking for a while, the deputy chief of staff suddenly had an idea and said, "Boss... I suddenly thought of a way to punish Li Yunlong. Do you want to listen to it?"

The boss became interested and quickly looked at the deputy chief of staff and asked, "Tell me more..."

PS: I will update more for the automatic subscription. If there is no automatic subscription or reward, then today will be the fifth update.

Chapter 198 The boss's decision! Give the new group another three months! (More updates, please subscribe)

The deputy chief of staff had a punishment measure, so the boss was naturally interested. He quickly looked at the deputy chief of staff and asked, "Old Zuo... stop wasting time... tell me your opinions and suggestions!"

According to the boss, this punishment for Li Yunlong will mainly be in the form of beatings.

It's not really about heavy penalties.

So the deputy chief of staff was silent for a moment, then said, "Boss, what I mean is that we should give Li Yunlong a serious demerit, and then give him three months to develop a main brigade with more than 7,000 troops."

A standard combat brigade consists of about 5,000 people.

But if it is the main brigade, then there will be more than 7,000 people.

For example, the 386th Brigade was the main brigade of the 129th Division. Before the New st Regiment was expanded and developed, its combat strength reached more than people.

The boss listened to the deputy chief of staff's words and was slightly stunned. "A serious warning? This punishment seems a bit painless!"

"Hasn't this kid Li Yunlong received enough punishment? Giving him a serious warning...it won't make any difference to Li Yunlong!"

In fact, within the Eighth Route Army, a serious warning was considered a relatively high punishment.

Although a serious warning is not as serious as dismissal or demotion, it is still a serious warning, which means it will affect promotion and subsequent development.

To put it simply, a demerit is a record of no faults in one's experience.

It is considered a very serious disciplinary warning.

Of course...if you behave well in the future, these punishments can be revoked.

According to the relevant disciplinary regulations of the Eighth Route Army, there are warnings; serious warnings; demerits; serious demerits; demotion or reduction in rank, dismissal or cancellation of non-commissioned officer qualifications; expulsion and other disciplinary methods.

Then a serious warning is between a warning and demotion.

The deputy chief of staff explained, "Boss... this is what I think."

"Li Yunlong is a very capable man, he is good at fighting and capable, and at the same time the 623rd New st Regiment has grown from more than people to more than people."

"In addition, during these three months, the New 1st Regiment also made great military achievements... After comprehensive consideration, they were given a serious warning."

"After all, this achievement can be regarded as completing the mission of the military order...it's just that the New First Regiment doesn't have more than 5,000 people now, but the New First Regiment used to have more than 5,000 people!"
