Chapter 75: A poor man has a short ambition, a thin horse has long hair

Only then did everyone realize that Li Yunlong's loud voice was indeed not heard at the scene.

Political Commissar Wang quickly came out to smooth things over and said, "Li Yunlong sent us a telegram this morning saying that his team had already set out. I think they were delayed on the way. Let's wait a little longer."

When they heard the word "telegram", all the regimental-level cadres present had red eyes and started complaining.

"Commander, Political Commissar, we are all your children. Even if you are partial to me, you can't do this. Why do you give all the good things to Li Yunlong while we have nothing?"

"That's right, Brigade Commander. We all admit that Li Yunlong is a good fighter, but we are not pushovers either."

"We all have one head on two shoulders. Li Datou doesn't have anything more than us. We can't think of him as the one who gets all the good things."

Only Captain Xu, Captain Cheng and Ding Wei knew the inside story. The three of them remained silent and could only listen to the complaints of others with great interest.

After hearing this, the brigade commander immediately scolded with a dark face:

"What are you arguing about? I was the one who approved the independent regiment to be equipped with a radio station."

"Because the independent regiment is trying to verify a special combat method, they need to frequently use the radio to report the latest situation there. This is a special matter."

"You didn't see that even the 771st and 772nd Regiments were not equipped with radios, just like everyone else."

"Moreover, the telegram from the independent regiment was not sent by the superiors, but was seized from the Nanji stronghold."

"All our troops are in great need of radios right now. Even though the New 1st Regiment participated in the battle, they still didn't get one."

After hearing this, everyone stopped talking. After all, it was too difficult to seize the Japanese radio station, and it was almost impossible on the battlefield.

Even if we surrounded the Japanese and annihilated them all, it would not work. Once the enemy saw that the situation was not good, they would destroy the radio station and heavy weapons.

This move was extremely vicious, and it was one of the reasons why the Eighth Route Army was so short of radio stations.

At this moment, the door to the conference room was pushed open, and the guard ran in and said loudly:

"Independent Regiment Commander Li and Political Commissar Zhao have arrived, and they have brought a transport convoy with them. They are currently handing over supplies."

When Brigade Commander Chen heard this, he immediately started to laugh and scold:

"Li Yunlong is sensible. He always brings something with him when he comes to the meeting. Unlike you guys, you always try to get something back from the brigade."

The regiment commander and political commissar present all looked indifferent when they heard the brigade commander cursing.

Their troops are poor and the soldiers can't even afford to eat. If face could be exchanged for food, they would have sold it long ago.

In fact, if their troops have sufficient supplies, they will be very generous.

As the old saying goes: "A poor man has low ambitions, and a thin horse has long hair."

At this time, the Japanese were still very powerful, and it was not easy to ask them for weapons, ammunition, food and bedding.

In every battle, if they could achieve a balance between income and expenditure, and the bullets fired and captured were almost the same, they would thank God, and there would be no extra ammunition to support the brigade headquarters.

But since Li Yunlong went to the independent regiment and formed a special operations team, they have won one victory after another and the amount of supplies surrendered has increased.

All in all, they also benefited a lot. At least every soldier got ten rounds of bullets, and their combat effectiveness was greatly improved.

Seeing that the special operations team had such a good effect, some of the regiment commanders present were gearing up to form a special operations team of their own, and then let the special operations team go to the enemy to ask for weapons, equipment and supplies.

Of course, this is also wishful thinking of some people who are unaware of the inside story. People like Captain Xu, Captain Cheng and Ding Wei do not have this idea.

But they knew very well how difficult it was for Li Yunlong to form an independent regiment special forces team.

It can be said that it is a combination of all the best elements of the 386th Brigade, and it was barely formed. The entire military region is unable to form a second one.

Moreover, the logistical support for the special forces is also exaggerated. If a list is made of the supplies consumed by this 42-man special forces team every month, it would probably scare everyone who sees it into doubting their lives.

After a while, Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang walked in, and Zhao Gang was holding a box in his hands.

"Brigade Commander, Political Commissar, Lao Zhao and I are here."

"My dear friends, I was delayed on the way by something, so I brought some things for you."

"Old Zhao, quickly distribute the things to everyone."

Distributing things now can greatly gain the favor of everyone present. Li Yunlong asked Zhao Gang to distribute them personally, which can also be regarded as accumulating connections for him to carry out his work in the future.

Zhao Gang first came to the brigade commander and the political commissar, took out two packs of cigarettes and placed them on the table, and then gave them to all the other regiment commanders and political commissars.

After seeing the cigarettes, Ding Wei smiled and said:

"Mr. Li, you are so generous. You gave us more than ten cartons of cigarettes. We are all benefiting from you."

Others also started to speak compliments. After all, these nice words were free, and saying a few more words could be exchanged for a pack of cigarettes, so they could be considered making a lot of money.

Li Yunlong also started bragging to everyone, and the whole conference room became lively for a while.

Originally, there was an important combat meeting to be held today, and Political Commissar Wang specially prepared three packs of cigarettes, but with so many people here, there was no way they would be enough.

Especially for those who are heavy smokers, they will feel even more uncomfortable after smoking a cigarette.

Fortunately, Li Yunlong was sensible and gave each of them one cigarette. Some people couldn't wait to open them, light up a cigarette and started smoking happily.

Of course, I can only draw it myself and will never share it with others.

If others want to smoke, they can just open their own cigarette pack. No one can take advantage of them.

At this time, even borrowing guns and ammunition can be agreed, but borrowing cigarettes is absolutely not allowed because they really have a cigarette in their hands.

After the fun, Political Commissar Wang asked with a smile:

"Li Yunlong, how many good things did you bring us this time?"

The others also pricked up their ears and wanted to listen carefully, as this was good news that concerned all of them.

Li Yunlong just laughed and said with a bit of pride:

"Recently, our independent regiment has done a big business and got a lot of supplies. We have to go to the brigade headquarters for a meeting today, so we brought them here."

"Among them, there are 1000 pieces of grey cloth, 80 catties of grain, 1000 catties of refined lard, 1.5 catties of peanuts, 1.5 catties of soybeans, and 1000 catties of kerosene."

Hearing that so many supplies were obtained all at once, everyone present gasped.

Li Yunlong is really generous. It seems that forming a special forces team is really profitable.

The brigade commander and the political commissar were also very happy to hear this. These supplies were a timely relief for the 386th Brigade.

In particular, 1000 pieces of grey cloth can be used to produce more than sets of military uniforms, which can allow many new recruits of the Eighth Route Army to wear new uniforms.

The brigade commander praised excitedly: "Li Yunlong, Zhao Gang, you two did a great job."

"These supplies are exactly what our military region and headquarters urgently need. I'll give you two a credit here. You must keep up the good work and achieve even better results in the future."

"Okay, next the Political Commissar will read out the latest orders from headquarters."
