A magazine of 30,000 rounds, you call it Hanyang

The deputy commander frowned.

The contributions made by Zheng Kaixuan and the Sharp Knife Regiment are indeed not small. The current incident also clearly shows that Zheng Kaixuan was pleading for Li Yunlong, but he just didn't say it so obviously.

This really made him feel troubled.

"Boss, Zheng Kaixuan and Li Yunlong specially sent someone to deliver 300 kilograms of fish, saying it's a token of their appreciation. Please accept it..."

This time, for Li Yunlong, the brigade commander also brought 300 kilograms of fish.

"These two guys are really something. Okay, take the fish. I'll make fish soup for the soldiers later."

The boss's expression softened a lot.

In fact, it was not his intention to send Li Yunlong to the clothing factory. It was just that the most important thing in an army is discipline. As the saying goes, there is no order without rules.

Seeing that the boss's expression had eased, the chief of staff also proposed a compromise plan at the right time.

"I heard that the Japanese are very good at mountain special operations, especially this Yamamoto Ikki. He is said to be elusive. Li Yunlong and Zheng Kaixuan are both very clever and courageous. If we want to deal with Yamamoto, we need people like them."

"Boss, in my opinion, we shouldn't let Li Yunlong go to the clothing factory to embroider. It's a waste of his talent. In consideration of their meritorious service, we should demote Li Yunlong by two ranks and temporarily assign him to the Sharp Knife Regiment as a company commander. Let them handle Yamamoto."

The brigade commander also quickly echoed.

"Chief of Staff, this is a good idea. Zheng Kaixuan has acquired a lot of cutting-edge weapons, and the development of the Sharp Knife Regiment is truly a miracle. Let Li Yunlong stay in the Sharp Knife Regiment for a while and learn its development model. Who knows, we might be able to replicate more units like the Sharp Knife Regiment in the future."

The chief of staff's approach can be said to be very versatile. It not only punished Li Yunlong, but also gave face to Zheng Kaixuan and Li Yunlong, and at the same time gave them the opportunity to make meritorious contributions while serving their sentences.

The boss also laughed.

"This solution is very sound. Just do as the Chief of Staff says. Let's send a notice to Li Yunlong right away. He might be sulking right now!"

In the new regiment, Li Yunlong was holding a bottle of wine, looking unconvinced, and complaining to Zheng Kaixuan.

"It's okay to be demoted. It's my fault, Li Yunlong, that I made the mistake. But you can just make me a company commander!"

"Old Zheng, you know I'm a rough man, my fingers are thicker than gun barrels. Asking me to embroider in a bedding factory is like forcing Zhang Fei to embroider, forcing Li Kui to thread a needle, asking Lu Zhishen to recite eight-legged essays, and asking Lin Daiyu to pull up a weeping willow tree. Isn't this embarrassing..."

Zheng Kaixuan was stunned when he heard this.

It is surprising that Li Yunlong, an illiterate and uncouth man, knows so many celebrities.

"Old Li, your metaphors are all messed up..."

At this moment, the order from headquarters was delivered again.

"Commander-in-Chief orders that Li Yunlong be removed from his position as commander of the New 1st Regiment for insubordination on the battlefield. However, in recognition of his meritorious service in killing the enemy, he is temporarily appointed as company commander of the Sharp Knife Regiment. He will assume his position immediately after completing the handover of the New Regiment."

After handing the document to Li Yunlong, the communicator came close to Li Yunlong and whispered.

"Captain Li, the Chief of Staff asked me to tell you that your appointment as company commander in the Sharp Knife Regiment is only temporary. Once the boss's anger subsides, you can be reinstated. The battlefield situation is tense right now, and we can't do without talented people like you."

"Also, during your time in the Sharp Knife Regiment, you and Captain Zheng Kaixuan must work together to deal with the Japanese special warfare expert Yamamoto Ikki. Here is the information about Yamamoto Ikki."

As he spoke, the correspondent handed out another document.

Li Yunlong did not reach out to take it, but instead looked at Zheng Kaixuan with embarrassment.

"My Captain Zheng, you know I can't even read a single word..."

Zheng Kaixuan smiled and took the document.

After the communicator left, Li Yunlong suddenly became excited.

"Hey! I'm so lucky! I was given the title of company commander when I asked for it. But it's okay. It's better than working in a clothing factory doing embroidery..."

Although he was demoted to company commander, Li Yunlong didn't care too much.

After all, the team he was going to was the Sharp Knife Regiment, and being in the Sharp Knife Regiment was no different from being in the New 1st Regiment. Zheng Kaixuan was a soldier he brought up, so he didn't dare to really treat him as a company commander.

"Oh, how could I have forgotten about this?"

Li Yunlong suddenly slapped his thigh, then quickly walked into the room and picked up the phone.

"Brigade Commander, I'm Li Yunlong. I have something to tell you first..."

The brigade commander's majestic voice immediately came from the other end of the phone.

"Li Yunlong, do you still have any opinions about the organization's handling of the matter? Let me tell you, not having you go to the clothing factory this time is quite a bargain for you, so just be happy."

Li Yunlong chuckled.

"My great brigade commander, how could I dare? I obey the orders of the organization 100%, hehe, it's just..."

"Just what? If you have something to say, say it quickly. If you have something to fart, fart quickly."

"But you have to promise me that next time the organization assigns me to lead a team, I have to take a few people from the New 1st Regiment with me. I'm good with Zhang Dabiao and Wang Chengzhu."

The brigade commander did not hesitate.

"Okay, I promise you, don't think about these things for now, and work with Zheng Kaixuan to figure out how to deal with Yamamoto Ikki."

"Okay! Thank you, Brigadier General."

Li Yunlong hung up the phone happily.

"Come on, Brother Kaixuan, let's drink."

This was the first time Zheng Kaixuan had seen someone so happy after being demoted.

"Come on, Lao Li, cheers."

…………

A few days ago, Taiyuan.

The headquarters of the First Army of the Japanese Expeditionary Force in North China.

"Report, Commander, an urgent message from the Sakata Regiment..."

The old Japanese soldier with a small mustache, Yoshio Shinozuka, stood up from behind the conference table and took the telegram.

"Nani! This, this..."

"Commander, what's wrong?"

Miyano Michiichi, Chief of Staff of the Japanese North China Front Army, had just arrived from the North China Headquarters and was sitting at the table drinking tea.

Since coming to Taiyuan, he had never seen Yoshio Shinozuka lose his composure like this.

"General Miyano, the Sakata Regiment of the 4th Independent Brigade was completely annihilated at Cangyun Ridge in southeastern Shanxi. Sakata Nobutsu died for the Empire and for the Heavenly Locust."

"Nani!"

Miyano Michikazu also stood up immediately, his face full of disbelief.

"Sakata-kun died? Who? Who did it?"

"Zheng Kaixuan of the 386th Brigade's Sharp Knife Regiment, and Li Yunlong of the New st Regiment."

"Bagaya road!"

At the same time, the Japanese 108th Division, 109th Division, and th Division all received the news.

Japanese commanders such as Yamaoka Shigeto, Shimomoto Kuma, and Kawagishi Fumisaburo were all terrified.

The Japanese North China Front Army Headquarters also received this news, and the then Supreme Commander of the Japanese Front Army, Tada Shun, could not help but sigh.

"The flower of the empire's famous generals withered on the Taihang Mountains."

The Japanese Army Department and various media published the news that Nobutsu Sakata had been killed in newspapers.

The 386th Brigade was once again pushed to the forefront.

The names Zheng Kaixuan and Li Yunlong became household names among the Japanese and became figures that made the Japanese tremble with fear.

At the First Army Headquarters, Yoshio Shinozuka finally thought of Yamamoto Ikki who had reported in a few days ago.

"Li Yunlong and Zheng Kaixuan have become a major threat to the empire, especially the Sharp Blade Regiment led by Zheng Kaixuan. They are extremely powerful. Even the commander of the Maruyama Brigade died at his hands. Conventional combat methods will not be effective against them for the time being. Someone, go and fetch Colonel Yamamoto Ikki."
