Draw the sword and cure the fear of insufficient firepower

"You kid, why would anyone nag you for no reason?"

"As for you, finish this drink and continue studying!"

"We finally have some time now. I have to make sure you learn some culture. At least learn to write your name first!"

"Otherwise, when we win in the future, you will be a blind man!"

"As your partner, I will definitely help you!"

Zhao Gang picked up the wine bowl and drank it all, grabbed a few peanuts and chewed them, then grabbed the wine bottle and filled his own bowl.

"Alright, alright! Old Zhao, you're good in every way, except that you're too damn stubborn!"

"I've been studying hard all morning, why are you still not done?"

"Culture? It's enough for me to know how to write my own name!"

"That educated guy in the Central Army kept calling them 'motherfuckers', but he still failed to drive the devils away!"

"On the contrary, I led the independent regiment to win several great victories this time!"

Li Yunlong said with disdain, and then silently moved the bottle towards himself.

This kid Zhao Gang, for several days, had finally put on an act and tricked himself into giving him half a bottle of wine, and he even poured it for himself without a care.

The two and a half hours of study this morning were such a fucking torture for Li Yunlong.

I really feel like sitting on pins and needles, like a thorn in my back, and like there is a fishbone stuck in my throat.

Sitting there was even more uncomfortable than sitting in the Central Army's prison cell. Although Li Yunlong had never been in the Central Army's prison cell, he had only been in the confinement room...

Moreover, he was scolded a lot by Zhao Gang.

They said his handwriting was uglier than dog's crawling, and that even a chicken with a handful of rice sprinkled on a piece of paper could write better than him.

Thinking about these words made him angry.

Everyone knows that in the independent regiment, he is the only one who can scold people, and no one dares to show his teeth to him.

But when Political Commissar Zhao Gang scolded him, he had no way to deal with it, and sometimes he even had to coax Zhao Gang with a smile.

Otherwise, this kid would really report me to the brigade commander.

Take this time for example, he secretly withheld a portion of the captured supplies and materials that the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army exchanged for Yi County.

When Zhao Gang found out about this, he immediately criticized him and wanted to report it to the brigade headquarters.

Li Yunlong's heart was about to jump out of his chest, and he quickly found an excuse to fool Zhao Gang.

"Oh, that's right, Lao Li."

"When do you plan to deliver the weapons, equipment and supplies that you intercepted to the brigade headquarters?"

"Don't think I don't know your little tricks. I tell you this is against discipline."

"When the brigade or even the headquarters starts investigating, you will be in big trouble."

"Even I, the political commissar, will have to bear the brunt of the consequences."

Zhao Gang pretended not to see it, grabbed the wine bottle, and gulped down another bowl for himself.

Then he asked, he had come to Li Yunlong to discuss this matter.

Last time, Li Yunlong said that the independent regiment had no vehicles, so the weapons and equipment could not be delivered, including the food. We can’t rely on the soldiers to carry it, right?

Wait a few days and borrow a car from Zhaojiayu or the surrounding villages. It won’t be too late to send it then. Anyway, it won’t get infested with insects if you keep it in your hands.

This is also an objective fact, and Zhao Gang agreed at the time, but the more he thought about it after returning, the more he felt something was wrong.

How could Li Yunlong be such a well-behaved kid?

"Hey, Lao Zhao, didn't we tell you last time? We don't have a car. Once we can borrow one, we'll definitely send it to the brigade headquarters!"

"Don't worry, Old Li will definitely not implicate the Independent Regiment, nor will he implicate you, brother, hahahaha!"

Li Yunlong got anxious and took the bottle and put it behind his butt. There was only half a bottle of wine. He just drank one bowl while Zhao Gang drank three bowls.

The bottle of wine is obviously empty, and Zhao Gang can't be allowed to drink any more.

Li Yunlong said this with a grin, trying to get away with it.

"Don't I know you? You are such a stingy person. Once something comes into your hands, don't even think about giving it away!"

"If it weren't for the huge amount of captured supplies, you wouldn't dare to keep them all. You would have secretly taken them. How could you send them to the brigade?"

"That's it. Our independent regiment has gained a lot from this battle. Which brother unit wouldn't be jealous of our independent regiment now?"

"You are still greedy, be careful or the brigade commander will fire you and make you take the blame in the brigade headquarters!"

Zhao Gang was unmoved by Li Yunlong's "little tricks". He had already distributed most of the wine today, and Li Yunlong had been craving for it for several days. He couldn't make Old Li angry all of a sudden.

As long as Li Yunlong doesn't drink too much, it's fine to have a few drinks.

"Old Zhao, why are you so honest? I would say you intellectuals just don't know how to handle things!"

"The brigade commander is the captain of the moving team again this time, and has received the spoils handed in by our three regiments!"

"That guy is as fat as Neiji Okamura, right?!"

"I only left one regiment's worth of weapons and equipment. Do I have to hand it in again? Our independent regiment doesn't need to expand?!"

"Don't even think that the brigade commander is here! Even if the fucking king of heaven comes, I will keep these things!"

"How about you ask the brigade commander to come to me for it?"

Li Yunlong is a guy who changes his mind at the drop of a hat. He was counting on these weapons and equipment to raise three more battalions.

At the beginning, Kong Jie divided his troops earlier than him and had already formed two battalions.

He was still struggling to defend Yi County. Now that he has finally returned and divided his troops, he must be stronger than Kong Erlengzi.

When troops are mobilized, they must be issued guns. Instead of using the ready-made weapons, they go out to seize them. Isn't that like begging with a golden bowl?

Especially the 20 Jin-made 75mm mountain cannons, plus the existing artillery of the independent regiment, it is entirely possible to form an artillery battalion.

Li Yunlong wanted to keep a few 150mm howitzers made in Jin, but those were too big and difficult to transport, and the headquarters attached great importance to this kind of heavy artillery, so he didn't dare to get into trouble.

But the 75mm mountain gun is different. It is light and easy to transport, and is more suitable for the current independent regiment.

Li Yunlong believed that as long as the troops could be developed, they could fight a few battles, seize the Japanese artillery, and then return them to the headquarters.

His trick is called borrowing a chicken to lay eggs. Anyway, once he is sent to the headquarters, the headquarters will have to allocate it to the troops below.

This trip back and forth would waste a lot of time. It would be better to use this time to let Li Yunlong use these artillery pieces to do something big.

The combat effectiveness of their independent regiment is beyond doubt, but their weapons and equipment were not as good as those of the Japanese, so they did not achieve much success.

Now, they have guns and cannons with powerful firepower. With these 20 Jin-made 75mm mountain cannons, the number of artillery pieces is greater than that of an entire regiment of the Japanese devils.

The independent regiment is also equipped with 10 107mm rocket launchers, which the Japanese don't have.

"Old Li, I still think that you..."

Zhao was just about to try to persuade him again, but before he could say anything, he heard a bang.

The door was kicked open by a big foot...
