Draw the sword and cure the fear of insufficient firepower

Just less than half an hour after Lin Tian and others left.

In the communications room at the independent regiment's headquarters, a rapid telephone ring rang out.

The communications squad leader quickly answered the call.

A familiar laugh came from the phone.

"Haha, where's Li Yunlong? Call Li Yunlong over. I want to congratulate him!"

"Report to the brigade commander, the regiment commander is in his office, I will go and call him right away, please wait!"

The communications squad leader hurried out of the communications room and rushed towards Li Yunlong's room.

"Oh no!"

"It's not good, Captain!"

The communications squad leader stood at Li Yunlong's door and shouted.

"Damn!"

"What's the matter? You're so panicked!"

"It's not their Okamura Neiji who's calling!"

Li Yunlong got off the kang cursing and walked to the door.

"What happened?!"

Li Yunlong asked.

"Captain... Captain."

"The commander called..."

"He wants to congratulate you..."

The communications squad leader said in a low voice.

"brigadier?"

"Congratulations to me?!"

"The sun is rising from the west!"

"Besides, I don't have any good news..."

"Ouch! It's broken!"

"It's broken, it's broken!"

"Don't tell me the brigade commander wants to congratulate himself on getting rich again..."

"I haven't even warmed up this batch of captured goods yet..."

Li Yunlong reacted immediately. This brigade commander would never call the troops unless there was something important, but today he came to congratulate him.

I'm afraid the weasel is paying New Year's greetings to the chicken with bad intentions...

The seizure of labor and capital...

Li Yunlong walked to the communications room with a sad face.

Reluctantly, I picked up the phone.

"Hey...hey..."

"Huh? What?"

"I can't hear you clearly, Brigadier General..."

"what did you say?"

"Hey...hey..."

"Da Liu, go check if the phone line is broken!"

"Fuck you, doesn't the communications squad leader check the communications facilities every day?"

"I want to listen to the brigade commander's teachings, but you are holding me back!"

"You are a stumbling block to the progress of labor and capital!"

Communications squad leader Liu looked aggrieved. I personally checked every day...

There's no thread on this phone line, so it's not likely to break...

I just checked it this morning, how could it be broken...

I was fine when I answered the phone just now, but it stopped working when the team leader answered the phone.

But the head of the group had spoken, so Liu had no choice but to go out and check the telephone lines again...

"Li Yunlong, don't give me that, kid."

"The phone line is broken. If it was really broken, how could I hear your voice?"

"You are too young to fool me!"

The brigade commander's laughter and scolding came from the phone.

Li Yunlong cursed inwardly, damn, I was so careless!

This brigade commander is so smart!

"Hey, Brigade Commander, the communication was really cut off just now. The communications squad leader just fixed it..."

"I can hear the Brigadier General now."

"Commander, if you have any instructions or teachings, I, Li Yunlong, am all ears..."

Li Yunlong smiled guiltily.

"Li Yunlong, you fought well this time."

"The platoon leader under you named Lin Tian is very capable!"

"I saw the entire battle scene!"

"Congratulations on finding a talented person!"

The brigade commander said with a smile on the phone.

As soon as Li Yunlong heard the word "congratulations" coming out of the brigade commander's mouth, he couldn't help but feel scared.

This time, the brigade commander didn't congratulate our Lao Li on his wealth, but came to congratulate me on discovering a talent...

It can't be... that you want to poach people.

No, no, absolutely not!

"Brigade...Brigade Commander..."

"You are not interested in this boy, are you?"

"You can't poach your own subordinates. That's too rude."

"That won't do. I trained this kid myself, so I have feelings for him..."

"You can't do this..."

"If you want some weapons and equipment, based on your reputation as a brigade commander, I, Old Li, will have to support you..."

"This is stealing my people, which is absolutely not okay..."

Li Yunlong patted his chest and vowed.

The brigade commander was delighted when he heard this and asked with a smile, "Really?"

Li Yunlong said in a serious tone, "Really? I can say anything else, but poaching is definitely not an option for us, Old Li!"

"Haha, Li Yunlong, you said this, don't turn around and say that a higher-ranking official can crush someone!"

"This time we wiped out the Yamazaki Battalion, and you didn't even fire a shot, but you got a large portion of the spoils!"

"Congratulations on your fortune!"

"Leave two companies' weapons and equipment, and send the rest to the brigade headquarters!"

The brigade commander was overjoyed and laughed.

Unexpectedly, Li Yunlong was so smart this time and took the initiative to jump into the trap.

"what?!"

"Brigade Commander, Brigade Commander, you actually made a feint to the east and attacked in the west!"

"No, Brigadier General..."

"I was thinking of forming two more battalions with this batch of captured goods. You are too ruthless. You are taking away most of them directly."

"Aren't you robbing me?"

"No, no, absolutely not!"

Li Yunlong cried out that he had been cheated. It turned out that the call from the brigade commander was not a good thing and he came to rob him.

However, this time... it seemed like I had taken the initiative to jump into the brigade commander's trap...

"no?!"

"Then I will hold you accountable for dividing the troops without permission."

"Don't think that the brigade doesn't know about your little tricks."

"You divided the troops without permission. If there is a big battle, it will take you half a day to gather the troops."

"By the time you get here, the daylilies will be cold!"

"Tell me, what is the crime for dividing the troops without permission?"

The brigade commander deliberately lowered his voice and spoke in a deep voice.

"Ouch..."

"Alright, alright, Brigadier General!"

"You're always like this, the medicine is the same..."

"You told us about the division of troops a long time ago..."

"Forget it, forget it. You're going to cheat again and refuse to admit it..."

"Last time, they held me responsible for mobilizing troops without permission and robbing a cavalry battalion of mine."

"Here you go again..."

"If you want something, just say it directly. Why are you always using these tricks..."

"Alas, it is the higher the rank, the more powerful the person..."

Li Yunlong rolled his eyes and said helplessly.

Humph, when I, Old Li, become a division commander in the future, I will come to rob you, the brigade commander...

Li Yunlong thought secretly.

"Okay, you are also supporting friendly forces. Many of our troops have three or even four people per gun."

"Unlike you, Commander Li, every soldier in your army has a gun and is rich as hell."

"Don't complain. Your equipment will definitely get better and better in the future. Who knows, even the Japanese's Type 99 rifles may not be worth your attention."

……

After talking for a long time, Li Yunlong was successfully robbed by the brigade commander again and returned to his room in depression.

"Damn it!"

"Next time we go to war, be careful of the brigade commander!"

"It's fine if you keep congratulating me on my wealth!"

"Then I have become a farmhand, right?"

"Impossible, absolutely impossible!"

"Can a person be tripped by the same stone twice... er... three times...?!"

……

Laowangshan base.

When Lin Tian and others arrived, it was already late. Lin Tian settled Wang Chengzhu down, thinking that he would discuss the construction of the artillery unit with Wang Chengzhu the next day.

Back in his room, Lin Tian couldn't wait to open the system panel.

[Ding, the host and his troops killed 402 devils, and were rewarded with 98 Mauser 402k rifles, bullets, and gold coins. The detailed data of the weapons has been issued. ]

[Ding, the host and his troops killed 1 Japanese lieutenant colonel, 3 majors, 12 lieutenants, and 36 sergeants. The reward is 70 92mm Type 8 infantry guns and 800 rounds of shells. 94 Type 90 20mm mortars and 2000 rounds of shells. 4 Maxim heavy machine guns and rounds of bullets. Big bucks, detailed weapon data has been issued.]

[Ding, the host and his troops completely wiped out a Japanese infantry battalion, triggering the explosive equipment reward, reward 56-type semi-automatic rifles 100, bullets. 107mm rocket launchers 10 groups, 107 1000mm rockets. 20 Maxim heavy machine guns, bullets. 10-type infantry guns 1000, shells. Big bucks. ]

Looking at so many weapons and equipment, Lin Tian's face was full of smiles, and he banged the wall excitedly.

"Great!"

"It's really awesome!"

"Brilliant!"

"With so many Type 107 infantry guns and these mm rocket launchers, I can equip a luxury artillery regiment."

After the excitement, Lin Tian couldn’t help but worry about so many equipments.

There are still too few people. The expansion speed of the troops can no longer keep up with the speed of the system's expansion.

Recruit soldiers! We must recruit soldiers!

Thinking of this, Lin Tian couldn't sleep anymore.

We now have 107 groups of 12mm rocket launchers, Type 19 infantry guns plus the previous one, a total of 90 guns, 34 24mm mortars, and grenade launchers.

There were a total of 26 Maxim heavy machine guns, 60 Czech light machine guns, and 46 Type and Type heavy machine guns.

56式半自动步枪150支，毛瑟98k步枪450支，三八大盖800多支。

And now, with the new recruits who have just joined from the villages nearby at the foot of the mountain, there are only 146 people in total.

It can’t be used up, it can’t be used up at all!

Lin Tian is so worried that his hair is about to fall out.

Large-scale military expansion is imminent and cannot be delayed.

The next morning, Lin Tian gathered everyone together.

"Guys, I have an announcement to make."

Hearing that Lin Tian had something to announce, everyone held their breath and stared at Lin Tian quietly.

"We still have too few people, and there are so many weapons and equipment piled up in the warehouse that they are all going to be covered in dust."

"I'm so worried now. My hair keeps falling out all night long. I'm almost going to punch through the wall of my room."

When they heard Lin Tian’s words, there was a burst of laughter below.

"So, I decided that we should now conduct a large-scale military expansion."

"At least 500 more people are needed to maximize the use of weapons in our warehouse while maintaining the combat effectiveness of the team."

"With more people, we can launch larger-scale battles in the future!"

"Only then can we kill more devils!"

"Only then can we avenge our compatriots who died unjustly!"

"Only in this way can we drive the Japanese out of our homeland as soon as possible!"

When everyone heard that they were going to expand again, they were extremely excited and waved their fists and shouted.

"it is good!"

"it is good!"

"Expand the army and kill the devils!"

"Expand the army and kill the devils!"

Lin Tian pressed his hands, signaling everyone to be quiet.

"So, recently each platoon selected 15 soldiers and went to nearby areas to recruit soldiers."

"Let me make it clear. We are a team that fights the Japanese. If you join the army, you can get 20 yuan a month. If you die, your family will be compensated with a pension of 1000 yuan."

"Let everyone have no worries."

"Only then will the villagers feel at ease to follow us and fight the Japanese!"

"Also, comrades in our team can also call on relatives and friends from their hometown to join the army."

"If you bring a class of people here, I'll make you the monitor."

"Bring me a platoon of people, and I'll make you the platoon leader."

Another burst of laughter broke out from below.

"Platoon leader, what if I bring in a whole regiment of people?"

Hearing this, Lin Tian laughed and said, "Then get out of here. I don't want people who only know how to brag in my team."

“Hahahahahaha…” Another burst of laughter.

In short, Lin Tian only needs people now.

There is no requirement to quickly form combat effectiveness. As long as you can undergo a few days of training and not hit your own people when you shoot, it will be fine.

Recruit people first, and then gradually train and improve them.

After breakfast, the soldiers in charge of recruiting gathered and set off in groups of two.

Soldiers from some nearby villages also returned home to spread the news of recruitment and welfare benefits to the people in their own villages.

Now, Lin Tian just needs to wait patiently for new recruits to join.

After lunch, Lin Tian called Wang Chengzhu.

Bring Wang Chengzhu to the warehouse.

"Zhu Zi, look, we have so many good guns now. You have come to the right place by following me."

"I have plenty of ammunition, so you can just fire as much as you want."

"I know you like sex!"

"I love to have sex the most, too!"

"These are all good guns!"

"That's enough to satisfy you, kid!"

Lin Tian pointed at the artillery and shells in the warehouse and said to Wang Chengzhu.

Zhuzi had never seen such a scene before. He was stunned, staring at so many cannons and shells, and was speechless for a long time.

It was like Monkey King entering the Peach Garden, he was dazzled and distracted.

For a moment, I didn't know which cannon to touch.

After being stunned for a long while, Zhuzi slowly came to his senses, ran over and hugged a Type 92 infantry gun, touching it all over, kissing and rubbing it, acting more affectionate than he did with his wife.

Zhuzi was so excited that he said with tears in his eyes: "What a great cannon! I have been a soldier for so many years, but this is the first time I have touched one."

"If we could use a cannon like this in our team, many fewer comrades would die."

Seeing Zhuzi's sad look, Lin Tian came over and patted Zhuzi on the shoulder and comforted him: "Zhuzi, don't be too sad."

"All the comrades who sacrificed their lives for the country will remember them. The country and the people will remember them, and history will remember them."

"The glorious deeds of our ancestors will definitely be included in the textbooks in the future, so that our descendants can learn from them from an early age and always be grateful and remember them."

"The martyrs who sacrificed their lives will live forever in the hearts of every Chinese son and daughter."

Hearing Lin Tian's words, Zhuzi suddenly became energetic, as if a raging fire was ignited in his chest.

"Platoon Leader, you said it very well."

"Now that we have so many artillery pieces, we don't have to worry about the Japanese being annihilated."

Lin Tian smiled, propped up the pillar, and said, "I plan to form an artillery unit of at least 100 people."

"You, Wang Chengzhu, will lead the team."

"There's no other way. I originally wanted to go all the way and create an artillery regiment."

"It's just that we have too few people right now, so we can only set up a smaller artillery unit first."

When Zhuzi heard this, he excitedly held Lin Tian's hand.

"Thank you for your trust, platoon leader. Wang Chengzhu will definitely make this artillery unit combat-ready in a short time!"

After saying that, Zhuzi turned around and touched the cannons one by one.

Suddenly, Zhuzi's attention was attracted by the 107mm rocket launcher behind him.

"Platoon leader, what kind of gun is this?"

"I've never seen this before. Even the Japanese army doesn't have this kind of gun."

"This looks like a gun barrel, but why are there so many gun barrels on one gun?"

"And this cannonball, my god, a cannonball is this long and this thick."

"This thing... is so big... and so thick. If it falls on the Japanese, haha, it will be enough to make the Japanese suffer a lot."

"The pit created by this shot must be several meters deep."

Zhuzi was measuring with his hands and talking as he did so, looking extremely excited.

Lin Tian repeated the details of the 107mm rocket launcher to Zhuzi.
