Bright Sword: Japs, times have changed

The two of them had breakfast on the top of the mountain and talked for a long time.

Others didn't know what they talked about. They only knew that the usually taciturn Second Battalion Commander Shen Quan talked to several company commanders after returning to the team.

An hour later.

The assembly call rang suddenly.

The team assembled quickly.

Holding a machete tied with a red cloth, Li Yunlong gave a pre-battle mobilization to the soldiers: "This battle is not about killing the enemy, but we must also show the momentum of our independent regiment and let those bastards of the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army know that their combat effectiveness is not as good as ours."

"Second Battalion Commander!"

Shen Quan shouted, "Here!"

Li Yunlong looked at him and said, "The Second Battalion is responsible for clearing the battlefield. Don't cause any conflict. I'm going to make it clear in advance: if your Second Battalion can't grab the spoils and lose to the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army, you can't stay in the Independent Regiment anymore. I can't afford to lose this man!"

Shen Quan shouted, "Don't worry, Captain, I will never embarrass you!"

"set off!"

As Li Yunlong raised his arms, the independent regiment's bugler blew the charge and the team headed straight for the battlefield.

The Japanese, who had already lost their will to fight, became even more frightened after hearing the deafening charge.

Many Japanese soldiers even fled without looking back. It is no exaggeration to say that they were like dogs that had lost their homes.

In the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army.

The two battalion commanders still haven't figured out the independent regiment's intentions. They just think that the independent regiment has eaten breakfast and is going to help them fight this battle.

One of the battalion commanders even said smugly: "Let these Eighth Route Army gangs finish them off, and save our brothers from going out to die again."

"They are then suited to cleaning up the mess."

Another battalion commander also said with a smile: "We have been watching the show for so long, it is time for us to see the excitement. However, watching is one thing, and when the battle is over, we have to give them some of the spoils as a token of our gratitude."

"Well, just give them something we don't like and send them away."

The news of the independent regiment's participation in the war soon reached Chu Yunfei's ears.

When he learned that his own troops had stood still and allowed the independent regiment to charge into the battlefield, he became furious.

He was not worried about having his credit taken away from him, as he knew that Li Yunlong would not take credit for it.

What he cares about is the spoils on the battlefield!

The team has been fighting for such a long time and has consumed a lot of ammunition. Everyone understands the principle of fighting to support the war.

But why don’t those two idiots know this?

If there was a war, the Eighth Route Army was fighting fiercely and had launched a decisive battle with the Japanese. If they didn't have some plan, how could they have broken into the battlefield between their own team and the Japanese?

"Contact the team in Dagu Town immediately and ask them to clean up the battlefield immediately!"

The signalman said with a bitter face, "Reporting to the regimental commander, the telephone line in Dagu Town is broken, and it has not been repaired yet."

"what?"

Chu Yunfei's face darkened: "Send someone on horseback to notify me!"

"Yes!"

At this moment.

The Shanxi-Suiyuan Army in Dagu Town was still watching the show leisurely.

The independent regiment had already searched the battlefield twice, taking away everything they could, and almost stripping the Japanese of their clothes.

Until an hour later.

The regiment's communications soldier hurried over and conveyed Chu Yunfei's order to the two.

At this time, the two battalion commanders realized that something was wrong. They became anxious and shouted, "Quick, stop the independent regiment!"

However, the soldiers of the independent regiment acted very quickly and evacuated quickly after looting the equipment.

When the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army chased after them, they only saw the independent regiment's receding backs.

Just as he came, he left in a hurry.

Chu Yunfei knew about this and angrily cursed the two battalion commanders. Meanwhile, the soldiers of the independent regiment returned with a full load.

Li Yunlong laughed and said, "We have quite a harvest this time, enough to replenish our equipment."

Second Battalion Commander Shen Quan also reported with a smile: "Commander, our Second Battalion has not fallen behind at all. We are proceeding according to plan."

Li Yunlong laughed heartily in the direction of the 358th Regiment's headquarters and said, "Brother Chu, you can't blame me for what happened today. It's your fault for not cherishing the opportunity."

This time they were just trying to seize the spoils, and there was no conflict with the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army from beginning to end.

Besides, the independent regiment doesn’t get anything for free.

After several charges, we killed more than 300 Japanese soldiers. This little bit of spoils can be regarded as wages.

On the battlefield.

The two battalion commanders ordered their men to dig three feet into the ground to find the lost spoils.

Be it bullets or guns, take away everything that can be used.

But who is Li Yunlong?

The passing geese pluck feathers, and the passing wind leaves traces.

How could such an existence leave them with anything good?

In addition to the fact that the Japanese soldiers' clothes were not stripped cleanly, there were also bullets left in the mud.

"Oh no! I'm going to be punished by the commander when I get back!"

Another battalion commander said with a bitter face: "What else can we do? If we had known earlier, we wouldn't just watch the show."

……

386th Brigade.

Brigade Headquarters.

After learning that Li Yunlong had returned to the capital, the brigade commander rolled his eyes and walked towards the phone with a smile.

The chief of staff put down the documents in his hand, knowing that someone was about to be in trouble again.

But who is this person?

Ding Wei?

It's unlikely. The New 1st Regiment suffered heavy losses in this battle. I guess the brigade commander won't take advantage of them.

Could it be Kong Jie’s new second regiment?

However, intelligence showed that the New Second Regiment suffered the least losses, but the captured supplies were not much, so it was not worth the brigade commander's effort.

Could it be Li Yunlong?

The chief of staff felt his eyelids twitching.

Li Yunlong, such a fool, can't really go to Dagu Town, right?

The call was connected, and Li Yunlong's voice was heard immediately: "Brigade Commander, are there any new combat missions?"

The brigade commander chuckled, and the chief of staff's heart skipped a beat.

Li Yunlong, ah Li Yunlong, you're on your own.

Then the chief of staff sat back on his stool and stopped thinking about it.

The brigade commander laughed and said, "There is no mission, but congratulations to you, Li Yunlong, you have made a fortune again!"

When Li Yunlong heard what the brigade commander said, he understood a little and said with a smile: "Brigade commander, I am so poor that I almost beg for food. How can I make a fortune?"

At this time, Li Yunlong knew that he could not hide it, so he just wanted to pretend to be miserable to escape.

But who is the brigade commander?

In Li Yunlong's heart, that person is more important than the king of heaven.

The brigade commander was too lazy to expose this trick.

"Stop talking nonsense! Believe it or not, I'm going to report this to headquarters right now. I'm going to say that you, Li Yunlong, have deserted your post and attempted to undermine the cooperation between the two armies."

After the brigade commander finished speaking, he waited quietly for Li Yunlong's reply.

"Commander, you're here again."

Li Yunlong said helplessly, "If you want the spoils, take them. Why do you have to accuse me of these crimes?"

Perhaps fearing a scolding from the brigade commander, Li Yunlong immediately said, "How about this, we did have some gains this time, but not much. I'll give 30% to the brigade headquarters. Is that satisfactory?"

"no!"

The brigade commander flatly refused: "Don't think I don't know how much benefit you got from Lin Qiang. I tell you, I know exactly how many bullets your independent regiment seized this time."

"If nothing else, fifty percent, send it to the brigade headquarters. Otherwise, you go and explain to the boss."

"Definitely!"

Li Yunlong accepted his fate. "Brigade Commander, you are really well-informed. However, our independent regiment has fought hard to gain any results. Our brothers have also suffered heavy casualties."

The brigade commander snorted, "Don't give me that. I know what you did, kid. Handing over half of the supplies is not difficult, and it's not too much."

Li Yunlong was deflated on the phone: "No problem, it's not too much, not too much."

The brigade commander said sternly, "Li Yunlong, you also know the situation of our brigade. Only by supporting each other can we better resist the Japanese. You have made so much money this time, it would be inappropriate not to share some of it."

Li Yunlong's eyes rolled. "Commander, how about this? I'll hand over one-third of it, and then give you a batch of Japanese canned food. It's so delicious."

The brigade commander hesitated for a moment and said, "Alright, send it here as soon as possible. Also, if something like this happens again, you must report it to your superiors!"

"Yes, Brigadier."

Li Yunlong hung up the phone, breathed a sigh of relief, and muttered, "The brigade commander is such an old fox, it's really hard to fool him."
