Bright Sword: Leading the Special Operations Squadron to Fight the Japs

The independent regiment task force returned to their base. As expected, Zhao Gang, Zhang Xuan and the brigade commander who stayed behind all went to the village entrance to greet them.

Li Yunlong killed Asaka Yasuhiko and avenged the victims of the tragedy. The whole country cheered and Chiang Kai-shek was so happy that he trembled with joy. For the first time in history, he awarded Li Yunlong the "Blue Sky and White Sun Medal" and allocated 3000 oceans.

The brigade commander happily went to greet them, holding the medal and the commendation letter from the head of the headquarters.

"Li Yunlong, you are so impressive! Jiang has never been so generous before. Let me put it on you!"

Li Yunlong was not interested in medals.

"Brigade Commander, is this just a crappy medal? He won't give our Lao Li any hard work pay?"

The brigade commander pointed at Li Yunlong's nose and smiled. The guard behind him took out two large boxes. When they were opened, buckets of silver dollars wrapped in cardboard were neatly stacked.

"Hahaha, Baldy Jiang is quite generous this time. I, Old Li, will gladly accept it!"

The brigade commander originally wanted to blurt out the catchphrase "Congratulations on your prosperity", but considering that the independent regiment had fought several tough battles recently, and his face was as bright as a light bulb, he gave up.

"Li Yunlong, I have to warn you. For your safety, Jiang Guangtou temporarily asks that this be kept secret. However, judging by the nature of those people, this secret won't last long. Be prepared!"

"Yes! We are at war with the Japanese, and if we don't kill the little dove, will the Japanese show mercy?"

Before leaving, the brigade commander told Li Yunlong another good news.

The independent regiment made great contributions this time. The headquarters had no money or food, but it could not just sit there and show no appreciation, so it sent two big gift packages.

First, give Li Yunlong 500 new recruits, all of whom are student soldiers who have recently joined the army and have a good cultural foundation.

Second, the independent regiment should develop according to the standards of a reinforced regiment and can add another artillery battalion, while the other regiment's direct teams can be under their own control.

Li Yunlong rubbed his teeth. The head of the headquarters wanted to go "robbery" on his own again. He was given a position, but there were no people and no guns. Isn't it just for the pleasure of talking?

"Commander, the commander of the headquarters has been so kind as to send me 500 new soldiers. Shouldn't you also take care of this stepmother's child of mine?"

"Li Yunlong! Why do you say so many weird things? What do you mean by raised by your biological mother or stepmother? Oh, forget it, forget it. What are your conditions? Tell me!"

Li Yunlong gave the right to propose conditions to Wang Meng, and Wang Meng said three words.

"Tank soldiers!"

Along the way, Wang Meng was thinking that the independent regiment had much more personnel than its establishment, and it would probably soon develop into an independent division with infantry, cavalry, and artillery, but it was lacking a tank soldier!

Tank soldiers are a technical branch of the military. If they rely solely on themselves to train, it will take a lot of time and it will probably take a long time for them to form combat effectiveness.

And what he lacks most now is time!

The brigade commander touched his chin as he looked at this man who was hard to guess and understand and whose worldview was constantly being refreshed.

"Captain Wang, can you get a tank?"

"Reporting to the brigade commander, I have already made the contact. If the tank soldiers arrive, I can get the equipment for a tank company!"

"No jokes in the army!"

"Yes!"

Li Yunlong, who had no idea about this beforehand, was also shocked. Although he appeared to be calm on the surface, his heart was already in turmoil!

The independent regiment actually had a tank company? They were chased by the Japanese tanks before, but now they also had tanks, and could fight with the Japanese tanks with bayonets!

"Okay, go make the preparations first. I will send you a hundred soldiers who have served in the tank unit within ten days!"

"Thank you, Brigadier!"

Only after Li Yunlong and Wang Meng saw the brigade commander off did their small team have a chance to reminisce about the past.

Zhao Gang and Lin Shubing both said it was very exciting after listening to the twists and turns of the "rat eradication operation".

"Old Li, if there is such an opportunity again in the future, it will be my turn!"

"Okay, next time the Japanese emperor comes, I'll give you the chance!"

"Go to hell! Do you think it's easy to meet the Japanese emperor? He's a dog. He only gives birth to one litter in his lifetime!"

"Haha, you, Old Zhao, are an intellectual, how come you learned to curse? The emperor is not a dog, he is even worse than a dog!"

"Hahaha!"

Li Yunlong and his companions decided on the next work direction while chatting and laughing.

First, we must pay close attention to the movements of the Japanese, and the entire regiment must shrink its defense to prevent Japanese retaliation.

Then we will continue to train soldiers. Although the number of medical soldiers, telephone operators and artillery soldiers can meet the current establishment of a regiment, since we have the freedom to develop, we will expand it! Independent division!

Finally, the tank company commander, Sun Desheng, was determined!

Hearing a little bit of news, Sun Desheng, with a bald head and a saber in his hand, rushed to the regiment headquarters.

"Captain, I heard that you want to fire the commander of the cavalry company and transfer the cavalry company out? I just want to ask you, what did I, Sun Desheng, do that made you dissatisfied?"

Zhao Gang also lost his temper when he saw Sun Desheng was furious. What did they think the regiment was? They rushed in with knives in hand! Was it a slaughterhouse?

"Sun Desheng, how can you talk to the head of the regiment? And you're holding a knife!"

Li Yunlong looked at Sun Desheng with a smile, his heart was filled with joy. He was indeed a fierce general, quite a fierce one!

"It's okay, Lao Zhao, let him talk!"

"Captain, I, Sun Desheng, put the knife here today. Tell me what I did wrong. If you do it wrong, I will chop off one of your fingers!"

"Sun Desheng, have you learned bad things from Kong Erlang? Do you chop off your fingers every day? Are those chicken feet or duck feet? I'm using them as a snack for drinking? It's a good thing that I transferred you out. Others can't even hope for that!"

Sun Desheng was confused now. He just heard that he was going to be transferred, but he had no idea where he was going to.

"Captain, what's the good news?"

"I'll transfer you to the newly built tank company as the company commander! Damn, these are brand new foreign tanks. I'm jealous of them!"

Sun Desheng's mood suddenly flew from underground to heaven. He wanted to experience this feeling again!

When I was serving in the cavalry with Shi Yousan, the first time I saw a Japanese tank, I was like a "newbie" and chopped at the tank with a saber.

After a few slashes, the saber made big cuts and left some white marks on the tank, and finally it was shot by the machine gun on the tank.

If he were given a tank company now, he would have to settle all the new and old grudges and face the Japanese head-on, and only the brave would win!

"Captain, I did it!"

"It's not certain whether you can do it or not. You are the company commander, so you should be the first to learn how to drive and fire the gun! If you can't learn, you should go back to your cavalry company and feed the horses!"

"Don't worry, commander. Soldiers riding tanks are also cavalry. I will definitely do a good job!"

While Li Yunlong, Zhao Gang and Sun Desheng were arguing, Wang Meng quietly returned to the special forces' room and began to study the information that popped up...
