Liang Jian: Lao Li, I'm really not a military expert

"I know about it. I will talk to the boss in person and give you a reply before noon tomorrow!"

"Li Yunlong, you captured a lot of good stuff when you attacked Balipu Town this time. Congratulations on getting rich! I don't want much this time. You must deliver half of the squadron's equipment to the brigade headquarters. You must deliver it before tomorrow night!"

In the end, the brigade commander did not forget about the equipment. He reminded Li Yunlong to hand it over as soon as possible and hurried to the headquarters.

Daxiawan, the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army.

After traveling all night, Brigade Commander Chen finally arrived at the headquarters before breakfast the next day. He immediately went to the command center and told the duty officer about the situation. Someone immediately went to notify the general and chief of staff.

The boss and the chief of staff had just gone to bed when they heard Brigade Commander Chen arriving late at night. They quickly got up and went to the command center, where they met Brigade Commander Chen who was drinking tea.

The chief of staff tightened his cotton coat and asked curiously, "Commander, you came here in such a hurry. It's not safe to travel at night. If there is anything urgent, you can't say it over the phone!"

Brigade Commander Chen put down the tea bowl in his hand and immediately replied: "Chief of Staff, Boss, I have something important to report to you!"

The boss also became interested. He pulled the stool next to him and sat down directly. He asked in confusion: "You came all the way here. Something big must have happened. But you don't look that anxious. This makes me curious. Tell us in detail!"

Brigade Commander Chen said excitedly with a smile on his face: "Three days ago, the independent regiment where Li Yunlong was located captured Balipu Town, seized the equipment of two squadrons of the Japanese, and also obtained a large amount of food and other daily necessities. It can be said that they made a fortune!"

"What's even more exciting is that they captured more than 300 Japanese soldiers and more than 200 puppet soldiers without losing a single soldier. This is a great victory! More importantly, classmate Lin also seized the Japanese's regiment flag. I have confirmed that the news is indeed true!"

The chief of staff and the general were shocked beyond words. They had fought in wars for many years, but had never fought a battle with zero casualties. They did not expect that they would be overtaken by Li Yunlong's independent regiment. They could only sigh: What the hell is this a magical battle!

The boss was the first to react. If it was just these things, they could just talk about it over the phone. There was no need to make another trip. He then asked, "Is there a problem? You can't solve it, so you come to the headquarters for help!"

"Boss, Chief of Staff, these two major events were led by classmate Lin. Now classmate Lin has proposed to use the Japanese prisoners to exchange our captured soldiers and intelligence personnel. The captured regiment flag will be used to exchange for mechanical equipment and the guns and ammunition we urgently need!"

The boss and the chief of staff looked at each other, discussed it, and reached a consensus. The chief of staff said happily: "The boss and I agree in principle with the suggestion made by classmate Lin. This is indeed the best way to deal with it at present. If it were before this war, I would definitely not agree to do this, but now the situation is very serious and all troops are in trouble. In exchange for something, we will not lose anything. However, the headquarters will take 20%, your division headquarters will take 10%, and your brigade headquarters will take another 10%. The rest will be given to the independent regiment. This can also be regarded as a reward for them!"

"Hahahaha, if Li Yunlong knew this news, he would probably jump for joy. This kid really got a good deal this time. He picked up a treasure. I'm a little envious of him!"

Brigadier General Chen added a final sentence, which made the general manager and the chief of staff laugh. Brigadier General Chen used the headquarters' phone to directly inform the independent regiment of the result and let the independent regiment take full responsibility for handling the matter.

The headquarters of the independent regiment, stationed in Yangcun.

In the regiment headquarters, Li Yunlong received a call from the brigade commander and jumped up from the kang with joy. He quickly called everyone to a meeting to discuss how to exchange them.

"Student Lin, you are the brains of our independent regiment. I don't obey anyone but you. Can you give us an idea on how we can contact the Japanese to make a deal? We can't just run up to the Japanese stupidly and talk to them!"

Li Yunlong complimented Lin Zhenhua and asked for advice. Lin Zhenhua was very satisfied with Li Yunlong's attitude. He did not take advantage of him and said calmly, "This matter is actually very simple. You think it is a bit complicated. To me, it is just a piece of cake."

"We have captured a Japanese telegraph operator, as well as their code book and radio station. We can let the Japanese contact their headquarters directly to exchange hostages. As for the regiment flag, it can directly contact the Yoshino regiment, but not their headquarters. If such a shameful thing gets out, the Japanese will definitely not trade with us."

"Then you must enter the village quietly, don't shoot, and don't pull the string until you see the enemy. Do you understand?"

Li Yunlong slammed the table hard, his palm hurting, and said decisively: "Student Lin, I'll leave this matter to you! In our independent regiment, you are the only one who can speak Japanese language. The other soldiers can only speak Ba Ge Ya Lu, and they can't do anything else!"

Zhao Gang also said immediately: "Student Lin, if you have any request, you can directly ask for it. As long as we can do it, we will find a way to do it for you!"

Lin Zhenhua cleared his throat and told everything that was on his mind. It sounded a bit risky, but in fact everything was under his control.

"My plan is okay, right? There will definitely be some risks in our trade with the Japs, but as long as we are well prepared, this risk is really nothing!"

"In order to facilitate this deal, I decided to let Yoshinohara Jiro go back. It's more appropriate for him to take the message. After all, he is the nephew of Captain Yoshino, so he is easier to talk to. As for the fear that this kid will never come back, you don't have to worry at all. Before he leaves, I will feed him a pill of Seven Days Chuanchang Powder, which will make sure that this kid will be completely obedient!"

"Damn it, you are really a talent. The names of the medicines you come up with are weirder and weirder. They sound really damn scary. You must keep those medicines well and make sure they are not stolen. Don't let the Japanese use this trick against us. That would be really damn embarrassing!"

In response to Li Yunlong's explanation, Lin Zhenhua patted his chest and assured with a serious face: "Captain Li, don't worry! The drugs I made are very difficult to prepare. Even I spent a lot of effort to produce this little. I'm not bragging to you. No one else can make it except me!"

"Don't think I'm bragging. If you don't believe me, just wait and see!"

"Political Commissar Zhao, I heard from the puppet army that they committed numerous blood debts and even spared no children as young as two or three years old. They are worse than animals. These people have lost their value for reform. If it were possible to use ancient punishments now, I would have to torture them to death to avenge my fellow villagers!"

Zhao Gang read the confession of these puppet soldiers and was so angry that he couldn't eat. Their crimes were too numerous to list. He nodded in agreement and said, "Student Lin's suggestion is very good. Let's do it as you said. These puppet soldiers really need to atone for the crimes they have committed!"

"Damn it, I get angry when I mention these sons of bitches hypocrites. If I knew that these puppet soldiers were so cruel to the people, I wouldn't give them a single meal and would just starve them to death. I'll shoot them tomorrow, or maybe just chop off their heads to save wasting bullets. These damn dogs who are worse than animals don't deserve it!"
