After graduating from Huangpu, he rose to prominence as a regiment leader.

Now, the number of artillery deployed on the battlefield alone definitely exceeds that of an artillery battalion!

At this moment, Ding Wei finally understood what Duan Peng meant by investing all his family assets.

In addition to the mortars that had already appeared, there were also two Type 92 infantry guns, which obviously exceeded the scale of the artillery company.

What’s even more outrageous is that the strength of this so-called fifth company is almost reaching the scale of an ordinary regiment!

There are more than a thousand troops and a large number of light and heavy machine guns and grenade launchers!

When did a company reach such an exaggerated level?

"Old Ding, this is indeed just a company of the independent brigade." Li Yunlong couldn't help but smile bitterly, "And this kind of organization is everywhere in the independent brigade."

"Even this kid Duan Peng was parachuted into this company just to give him training. Can you believe this?"

During this period, Li Yunlong and Duan Peng got along very well. He felt that this person was very much to his liking. The two of them would chat and talk together whenever they had time, so they were not shy when talking about Li Yunlong.

"A company has thousands of people, so doesn't that mean the scale of this battalion completely overwhelms a brigade?" Kong Jie's face instantly turned into one of disbelief.

"To be precise, the Third Battalion has more than four thousand troops. If non-main combat units are included, the number is estimated to reach five thousand!" Li Yunlong nodded.

"Five thousand?!"

"Damn it! If we expand a little more, our brigade might not have as many people as theirs!" Kong Jie felt a little dizzy. You know, the number of people in their 386th Brigade is only about 7,000, while a battalion of the Independent Brigade is almost 5,000?

Ding Wei at the side also suddenly reacted: "Old Li! According to this statement, a battalion is nearly 5,000 people, and three battalions make a regiment."

"Isn't one of their regiments equivalent to a division?"

Ding Wei swallowed subconsciously, obviously shocked by his own guess.

"No!" Li Yunlong shook his head slowly, "Old Ding, you have to know that their independent brigade has three regiments!"

"Three regiments? Nine battalions? That's fucking..." Ding Wei and Kong Jie looked at each other in the air, and both saw a hint of shock in each other's eyes!

Seeing the expressions of the two, Li Yunlong knew that they must have been thinking wrongly, but he was too lazy to explain. Anyway, the strength of the independent brigade was definitely beyond anyone's imagination!

"Lao Ding, Lao Kong, these things are just on the surface, but you two should know that the independent brigade also has two artillery regiments!"

"Besides that, there are also special operations battalions, cavalry battalions, sharpshooter companies, command centers, reconnaissance companies, guard companies, suicide squads, and so on!"

"Qin Feng told me that it was more than 30,000, but I think it's more than that!" Li Yunlong slowly told what he had seen during this period.

Then, he slapped his forehead again: "Oh, right! The independent brigade also has an armored unit!"

"How much? Thirty thousand?"

"Armored?"

Kong Jie and Ding Wei said it almost in unison, with shock written all over their faces!

Over 30,000 men! Armored units! Two artillery regiments!

Can this still be called a journey?

As early as in Ping'an County, they might have known that the independent brigade was not an ordinary organization and it was very likely to have an artillery regiment.

Now it seems that this artillery regiment is not important. With the combined strength of the other side, these two so-called regiment commanders may not be as good as a company-level unit of the independent brigade!

"Okay! It's not easy for you two to come here from far away. I'll treat you to some drinks, and there will also be enough canned food from the Japanese!" Li Yunlong waved his hand, interrupting the two people's shock.

As soon as he saw the expressions of Kong Jie and Ding Wei, Lao Li could empathize with them. If we talk about misery, he is definitely the most miserable one!

His own subordinate Wang Chengzhu and even Sun Desheng's brother Sun Debiao are better than him, which directly makes the old regiment commander look bad!

But Li Yunlong was also a broad-minded person and he finally came to terms with it.

In any case, Qin Feng seemed to have great goodwill towards them. Not to mention anything else, in the battle to annihilate the Osaka Division, although Li Yunlong contributed the least, he gained a lot of benefits!

Not to mention weapons and equipment, the food and drinks are all top-notch, even canned beef is no problem!

Kong Jie said unhappily: "No wonder Captain Duan said that you, Li Yunlong, are living a good life now."

"I didn't believe it at first, but now I see it's true."

"It's worth it that I came all the way here to save you. I slept in the open and didn't even have a hot meal!"

Li Yunlong laughed: "It's really good, but it's only for today!"

"Only today? What does that mean?" Kong Jie asked puzzled.

"The headquarters of that old Japanese soldier Kazuo Shinozuka has been destroyed by the independent brigade. Now the Japanese soldiers have come back to support us. I guess they want to kill Qin Feng alive!" Li Yunlong joked.

"The base camp was destroyed? Old Li, are you saying that you really took over Taiyuan City?" Ding Wei couldn't help but speak.

Li Yunlong waved his hand: "It's not us, it's the independent brigade!"

Ding Wei said solemnly: "Old Li, what happened after you arrived at the Cangyun Mountains?"

"Also, what is the situation with the Osaka Division?"

Li Yunlong looked around and then waved to the two of them: "Follow me, let's sit down and have a good chat."

Ding Wei and Kong Jie followed immediately.

......

The temporary headquarters of the new regiment.

At this time, in a cleaned-up room, three people were sitting around a brick bed.

There were several bottles of sake on the kang, as well as some side dishes and even canned beef.

"Old Li, if you hadn't said it yourself, I would never believe it even if you kill me!" Ding Wei raised his head, took a sip of wine, and wiped his mouth with his sleeve.

Through Li Yunlong's narration, the two finally figured out the whole story.

After the New 1st Regiment broke through, Li Yunlong was the first to arrive at the Cangyun Mountains. He encountered the Japanese on the way and was rescued by the cavalry of the Independent Brigade.

Afterwards, he witnessed with his own eyes the entire process of how the Independent Brigade wiped out the Osaka Division!

"Old Li, are you saying that Chu Yunfei was also pulled onto the chariot?" Kong Jie frowned and looked at Li Yunlong.

Li Yunlong nodded: "Yes, Chu Yunfei's 358th Regiment has also joined the battle."

After finishing speaking, Li Yunlong spoke before the two of them could speak: "Lao Ding, Lao Kong, to be honest, the fact that you can come to save me is worth my life!"

"But what I want to tell you now is that it's still not too late to leave Taiyuan City!" Li Yunlong said solemnly.

"Why have you, Li Yunlong, become so distant?"

"Since I'm here, I must not be afraid of death!" Kong Jie rolled his eyes and said unhappily.

Seeing this, Li Yunlong subconsciously wanted to dissuade him a few more times.

Ever since he went north with Qin Feng, he had been mentally prepared for the worst.

Although this move could save the entire northwest Shanxi, what they would face next was a dead end!

After all, there are four divisions with more than 100,000 troops!

And on their side, except for the Independent Brigade, no one can fight!

Ding Wei hesitated for a moment and said, "Actually, Lao Li, I don't think you need to worry too much."

"What do you mean?" Li Yunlong frowned subconsciously.

Ding Wei said in a deep voice: "I want to say, how many cards Qin Feng has in his hand, I'm afraid even you may not know it clearly, right?"
