Bright Sword: Follow Kong's fun and build the strongest military industry

Anyway, at this moment everyone was just thinking about gathering the people Li Yunlong needed, as if they were supporting their own arsenal, but adding one more person would not do, as it would seem like a huge loss.

Captain Xu, who had a good relationship with Li Yunlong, said at this time: "Li Yunlong, your cigarette is not enough to exchange for so many intellectuals."

After hearing this, Li Yunlong asked curiously, "Who said that I use these cigarettes to exchange people? These are my gifts to the two commanders and old comrades. The main reason is that our independent regiment has already launched a cigarette production line, and we must share the good stuff produced with everyone."

"Our Political Commissar Zhao told me that it's called 'having fun alone'. What's the point of having fun together? I'm not smart enough to remember something so profound. Anyway, it means that if we smoke together, we can have fun together."

"As for the compensation for the transfer, by the way, Xiao Kong also said that this is called a reward for everyone. You can't say that you are exchanging equipment for people. That sounds too bad. All the rewards are hard stuff, and everyone is guaranteed to be satisfied."

After hearing this, everyone felt relieved and opened their own packs of cigarettes, lit them with matches and started smoking.

Even the commander and the political commissar were no exception. These were top-quality cigarettes. Just now outside the door, they all saw Li Yunlong distributing cigarettes generously, but due to their status, they could not go forward to ask for a cigarette. They were all thinking about getting two packs of good cigarettes from Li Yunlong after the meeting was over.

Now, the political commissar just counted. In addition to the one in front of him and the commander, there should be about sixteen in the box, enough for the military district headquarters to use for a while.

Soon, the entire conference room was filled with smoke and people could hardly be seen.

Kong Jie also opened a pack of cigarettes, lit it with a match, and started smoking happily, while admiring the beautiful pictures on the cigarette shell. Who would want to smoke his broken pipe when there were good cigarettes to smoke?

Suddenly, he found a line of small words on the cigarette paper and asked hurriedly:

"Lao Li, it says here that smoking is harmful to health. What effect can this have?"

"Old Kong, this is what Xiao Kong specifically told us. He seemed to be saying that smoking too much is bad for the body, and he advised us to smoke less."

After hearing this explanation, everyone present was amazed. It was good enough to have cigarettes to smoke now, so who would worry about this?

After everyone had finished their discussion, they asked Li Yunlong to talk about the rewards so that everyone would have a better idea of the rewards.

"One elementary school graduate will be awarded a grenade launcher and 200 rounds of grenades; one junior high school graduate will be awarded a mortar and 200 rounds of shells."

After hearing this, most of the people present were excited, especially the leaders of the newly formed groups, whose eyes lit up.

After all, their regiment has at least one or two thousand people, and there are still some junior high school graduates among them. We can transfer some of them to support our military production. At worst, we can recruit more in the future.

People like Kong Jie, Ding Wei, Captain Xu, Captain Cheng, and some other captains with strong combat power were waiting for Li Yunlong to continue.

The previous awards were just icing on the cake for them. What they wanted to know were the awards for high school graduates.

After all, they have reached the mortar, so the next one should be the Type 92 infantry platoon. When they thought of this, everyone's eyes became extremely excited.

Even the commander and the political commissar are no exception. After all, if there are twenty Type 92 infantry guns, the military region can form an artillery regiment, which will definitely be able to surpass other military regions of the same level.

The most important thing is that the ones behind are even higher, 75mm mountain cannon or 105mm howitzer, which is exciting to think about.

After Li Yunlong took in the expressions of everyone present, he continued:

"One high school graduate will be awarded fifty rounds of recoilless gun shells. If you want to use a launcher, one gun will be equipped with twenty rounds of shells."

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone present stood up in shock. This was completely beyond their expectations and it was too generous.

You know, what kind of weapon is the most popular in our army at present? The recoilless gun ranks second, who dares to say it is the first.

One artillery shell is equal to one of the Japanese's artillery towers, so the value is huge. It seems that Kong Hao really spent a lot of money this time.

Next, everyone was very active in gathering all the people together, and there were even some extras. Li Yunlong accepted all of them.

As for the top talents, Li Yunlong directly sent out an Italian mountain artillery battalion, with each gun equipped with 500 rounds of ammunition, which made the commander so happy that he praised Li Yunlong several times on the spot.

But in the end, Li Yunlong also emphasized: "Xiao Kong said that this can only happen this time, and next time we must handle it impartially."

Those present were all old foxes, and they immediately understood that Kong Hao was using Li Yunlong to seek benefits for his mother's family, otherwise how could they let their military region take such a big advantage.

The commander and the political commissar think further. They have greater authority and know more inside information.

Big killer weapons like the recoilless rifle and Italian mountain cannon should have been obtained by Kong Hao through the family behind him, and he has absolute rights to distribute them.

The heads of the headquarters will not interfere too much. After all, it is all the responsibility of the Eighth Route Army, so it doesn't matter who is responsible.

After finishing all this, Li Yunlong first took the old professor and six college students back to Zhaojiayu to carry out preliminary work. The remaining personnel would gather at the military district headquarters later, and then a large force would be sent to escort them.

These people are the treasures of the military region. Even if one of them gets injured on the road, Political Commissar Wang will feel distressed for a long time.

Li Yunlong also thought of this and specifically asked the commander for a cavalry platoon, so that he could quickly return to the independent regiment headquarters and ensure everyone's safety.

After all, these seven people are all great intellectuals, especially the old professor. He is the treasure among treasures and the talent most urgently needed by the arsenal.

Gu Beize, male, 21 years old, was originally a student of Northeastern University. During the September 18 Incident, his school was forced to suspend classes. Not wanting to become a slave of a conquered nation, he followed his professors into the country and then wandered around.

They had also been to many big cities, but when we went to war with the Japanese, they just continued on the road of exile until they arrived in Shanxi Province and were taken in by the Eighth Route Army.

The original team of more than 20 people was also dispersed to various places. Only Professor Feng from the Department of Chemistry, with their three students, and three students they met on the road, a total of seven people settled in the Taiyue Military Region.

The people here are very kind, and the common people live and work in peace and contentment, with smiles on their faces. This makes Gu Beize and his party very curious. In other places, even in the territory of the national government, the common people are all frowning.

This comfortable life made Gu Beize and his group very enjoyable. They did not have to face the enemy's bayonets or the enemy's unprovoked killing. Everything was so peaceful.
