Bright Sword: Double penetration of the dealer, shocking Li Yunlong

Independent regiment headquarters.

The Deputy Chief of General Staff said to Li Jingrong, "Comrade Shenlan, you should be very clear about the current situation of our Eighth Route Army."

"Our Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningxia Border Region is facing heavy encirclement by the Japanese army, the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army, and the Nationalist government."

"In order to prevent our team from growing stronger, they used all means to block us."

"Although we have taken some measures to purchase various supplies from outside, the results have been minimal, so we can only be self-sufficient."

"Whether at the base or in the troops, food, cloth, medicine, or even salt were all in extremely short supply, and the conditions were extremely difficult."

"Faced with the relentless advance of the Japanese invaders, our soldiers had no choice but to fight them head-on with their spears and swords."

"And in order to support our war of resistance, the people in our base area would go hungry and save food to give to us."

At this point, the Deputy Chief of General Staff paused, then changed the subject and said, "It wasn't until Comrade Shenlan came to our Eighth Route Army that we saw hope."

"So we want to purchase supplies and weapons and equipment from outside through you."

"Of course, we in the Eighth Route Army also have principles. You can take a certain commission from each transaction to cover the cost of cooperation."

Li Jingrong pondered for a moment and then said, "I'll take this job, but I won't take any commission. I'd rather use barter."

"Your army can use gold, silver, jewelry, diamonds, antiques, precious wood, or other spoils of war as settlement and exchange. I can purchase them at a price 30% higher than the market price."

"You don't have to worry about me losing money. I have a way to make a certain profit from it. As for the so-called commission, there's no need for it."

In the hands of the Eighth Route Army, these things, except for gold, would not have much value at all.

But it was different in his hands. Bringing these things back to modern time and space could bring him a lot of benefits.

The Eighth Route Army was also able to obtain the supplies and weapons and equipment they needed by selling these things.

He could get away with it by buying at a price 30% higher than the original price. Even doubling the price would still make him a lot of money.

If such a cooperation approach is adopted, it will be a win-win choice for both parties.

Only in this way can the cooperation between the two sides be sustained for a long time. After hearing his words, the Deputy Chief of General Staff and Commander Liu looked at each other.

This conversation went much more smoothly than they had imagined, and they were very grateful for Li Jingrong's actions.

Li Jingrong said that the purchase price would be 30% higher than the market price, and there would be no commission.

No matter how you look at it, the Eighth Route Army has taken advantage. As for Li Jingrong's claim that he can still make a profit, they think it is just an excuse.

This made them feel very guilty. Although the Eighth Route Army was very poor, they would not let those who helped them suffer.

"No, you want to help us, we know that very well, but we will not let those who help us suffer any loss."

"We will cooperate based on normal market prices. This is the premise and foundation. Otherwise, we would rather not cooperate."

The Deputy Chief of General Staff's attitude was very firm. After hearing what the Deputy Chief of General Staff said, Li Jingrong couldn't help but smile bitterly.

This actually made it difficult for him to explain. He couldn't say that he could gain dozens or hundreds of times the benefits by bringing these things to modern time and space.

Seeing how persistent they were, Li Jingrong had no choice but to agree.

At the same time, he also decided to adopt a half-sale, half-give-away approach to provide more assistance to the Eighth Route Army, so that he would not be taking advantage.

"Okay, let's hold the transaction in Wangjiagou. I'll widen the area and build a highway that leads directly to our headquarters."

"Connect the headquarters and the independent regiment so that vehicles can easily travel between the two places to transport supplies."

"Besides, Wangjiagou is so close to the Independent Regiment, it is also convenient for protecting this place."

Commander Liu nodded and said, "I think it's possible. To the left of Wangjiagou is Li Yunlong's Independent Regiment. It's not far from the New 1st Regiment, so it's very suitable for the transfer of supplies."

“As for the road construction, leave it to us.”

The two parties then quickly agreed on some details of the transaction.

Brigadier General Chen, Li Yunlong and others also came back at this time. From Li Yunlong's expression, it can be seen that he is in a good mood.

This made Li Jingrong very surprised. Didn't Brigade Commander Chen help him take inventory of supplies?

How could this guy still be so happy? Li Jingrong soon learned the actual situation from him.

Although Brigade Commander Chen often took advantage of Li Yunlong, he always knew when to take advantage.

For example, none of the automatic rifles and squad machine guns were moved this time.

Only half of the rocket launchers were "inventoried", and no Type 89 heavy machine guns were taken.

Instead, they took away more than 54 Type heavy machine guns that Li Yunlong had replaced.

As for the anti-aircraft machine guns, they were not moved either.

These Type 54 heavy machine guns can be used for both fire suppression and air defense, which is enough for them.

As for the anti-aircraft machine guns, let's leave them to Li Yunlong. He has already taken over the Japanese Taiyuan Airport, and the Japanese Army Aviation will definitely take good care of him next time.

Compared with them, the independent regiment needs this batch of large-caliber anti-aircraft machine guns more.

The brigade commanders didn't take away many mortars.

只是带走了10门60mm迫击炮、6门82mm迫击炮和3门120mm迫击炮。

The remaining mortars were enough for the independent regiment to form two more mortar companies.

No wonder Li Yunlong could still laugh. The brigade commander was very lenient this time.

Of course, the main reason is that Li Yunlong’s performance this time was indeed very good.

Putting aside the issue of violation of discipline.

The fact that his independent regiment annihilated the 41st Reorganized Regiment alone made his 386th Brigade proud in the entire army and even the entire country.

Moreover, the independent regiment actually earned more than 3,000 tons of supplies and weapons and equipment from this business.

At this time, the brigade commander finally understood why Li Yunlong was so brave.

Qian Zhuang is a coward, not to mention Li Yunlong, who is already very bold.

Let alone Li Yunlong, even if it were him, he would not care about anything and would just beat him first and talk about it later.

I guess Commander Liu would have the same attitude. Fighting the Japanese while doing business is like a pie in the sky.

Even the brigade commander was a little envious. How lucky was Li Yunlong to meet Li Jingrong?

Fortunately, Li Yunlong was his subordinate. Every time he finished his business, he would come over to "take inventory" and get a share of the profits.

Now his 386th Brigade is strong and powerful, thanks to Li Yunlong. As for Ding Wei and Kong Jie, they did not cause trouble for Li Yunlong.

The brigade commander has assured them that the new equipment will be equipped to their regiment soon.

Although the New 1st and New 2nd Regiments were second-line troops, their actual combat effectiveness was no less than that of the main force.

This time he planned to equip these two regiments with the new equipment first.

Letting them and Li Yunlong's independent regiment form an iron triangle to protect the headquarters can ensure that the headquarters' outer defense line is unbreakable.

"Tell the kitchen staff to prepare a table full of good food and wine to entertain the chief. Prepare more meat and tell them not to be stingy."

Li Yunlong said with great wealth.

Of these 2500 tons of supplies, a full 100 tons belonged to his independent regiment.

That afternoon, the Deputy Chief of General Staff, Division Commander Liu and Brigade Commander Chen returned.

At the same time, a motor transport convoy was also taken away, which was full of various supplies.

The 14 122mm howitzers were also taken away along with the shells.

These 14 guns were divided up before they even left the independent regiment.

Brigade Commander Chen fleeced Li Yunlong, and then Division Commander Liu fleeced him. It is true that a higher-ranking official can crush a lower-ranking official.

The 386th Brigade was left with only two 122mm howitzers, while the 129th Division was allocated six.

As for the remaining 6 guns, they were naturally pulled to the headquarters. In this way, the headquarters and the 129th Division each had a heavy artillery battalion.

As for Ding Wei and Kong Jie, they each returned happily with 50 tons of supplies.

Looking at these remaining weapons and equipment, Li Yunlong began to think about it.

"We must expand the army. We must add another infantry battalion and increase the force to 4000."

The 4000-man independent regiment is equivalent to the strength of a full-strength Japanese regiment.

In addition to adding a fifth infantry battalion, Li Yunlong also decided to expand the artillery unit.

Among them, 9 82mm mortars formed the first artillery company.

The 6rd Artillery Battery consists of 82 3mm mortars and 120 mm mortars

The four 4mm rocket launchers still belong to the Second Artillery Company.

Two 2mm heavy guns make up the fourth artillery company.

Li Jingrong was a little confused about Li Yunlong's arrangement.

These artillery pieces are enough to form an artillery battalion.

In this case, why not form an artillery battalion? Wouldn’t it be more convenient to unify all these artillery companies under the command of one artillery battalion?

Li Yunlong gave his own explanation.

"Brother, you don't understand. Our brigade only has one artillery battalion. It's no big deal for an independent regiment to set up an artillery battalion. We have to keep a low profile."

He still vividly remembered the last time a cavalry battalion was turned into a cavalry company.

If he becomes an artillery battalion commander again, and if the brigade commander gets upset with him one day and turns him into an artillery company, who can he cry to?

He has decided to keep a low profile in his life and a high profile in his work, which is also what Zhao Gang taught him.

I have to say, after being bullied several times, Li Yunlong actually learned to keep a low profile.

I have to say that the growth is quite fast.
