Anti-Japanese War: Li Yunlong dared to attack Taiyuan

Recalling the scene of yesterday's celebration meeting, Li Yunlong couldn't help but laugh. How lucky it is to be able to work with such a group of idealistic and ambitious people?

A passage came to my mind, in which someone with ulterior motives omitted one word.

Fighting with the sky, the joy is endless; fighting with the earth, the joy is endless; fighting with people, the joy is endless.

Without the word "fen", the meaning is completely different.

All Li Yunlong has to do is fight with others, and he has endless fun.

The gift from the division commander was a notebook. After Li Yunlong slowly opened it, the first sentence he wrote on it was his opinion on "The Debate between Cao and Gui".

The key to Lu's victory over a stronger state in the Battle of Changshao was that Duke Zhuang of Lu was able to improve his internal politics and win the trust of the people.

The word "min" is highlighted.

After flipping through a few pages, he found that there were very few military annotations in this notebook. Most of them were some summaries made by the division commander after the war. Li Yunlong understood the division commander's intention and put the notebook away.

The chief of staff brought him a pen, which was not new but had been used, but it was wiped very clean. Li Yunlong smiled and put the pen into his pocket. The pen in his hand had been used for some time and needed to be replaced.

Looking at the brigade commander's gift, Li Yunlong sighed silently. This might be the only valuable thing on the brigade commander, the second only being his glasses.

The brigade commander's leather coat. In fact, it's not just the brigade commander who has a leather coat. The army commanders and others also have a leather coat. These coats were one of the supplies that the Russian bear provided us with a long time ago.

At that time, the Eighth Route Army had been reorganized. Because there were no military ranks, it was sometimes difficult to distinguish commanders on the battlefield, so the army commander and other commanders were equipped with leather coats, which they wore for five years.

This is also the most valuable item in the hands of the leaders of the Eighth Route Army besides telescopes and glasses.

The brigade commander gave this leather coat to Li Yunlong, and the meaning behind it is self-evident.

"We must find the brigade commander a new fur coat."

Next were some things sent by brother units. Because of the battle in Yun County, Li Yunlong provided a lot of ammunition and supplies. When cleaning the battlefield, he did not just care about himself. The commanders of each brother unit also sent a lot of things.

Cheng Xiazi from the 772nd Regiment brought a letter. Li Yunlong knew what Cheng Xiazi wrote without even reading it. It was simply that the matter of him robbing Xiao Wanshi was over. Li Yunlong had guessed it long ago.

Captain Liang sent a Japanese lieutenant's sword. Although Li Yunlong had it, the meaning of the sword sent by the brother unit was different. After Li Yunlong marked it, he put it among a pile of real lieutenant's swords.

There are still a few fake lieutenant general's swords, but Li Yunlong doesn't have to worry about not being able to sell them. Li Yunlong immediately prepares to sell a few major general's swords as general's swords.

I'm sure many people are interested in Matsui Ishigen's general's sword. But as for its authenticity? Li Yunlong says it's authentic, so who dares to say it's fake?

"Kong Erlangzi has spent a lot of money. Where did he get the lighter?"

Li Yunlong picked up the gift from Kong Jie, a ZIPPO lighter. This thing is relatively rare nowadays and is a foreign product. It is much more advanced than the Japanese-made kerosene lighter that Li Yunlong used.

Ding Wei sent a notebook in which he recorded some of his thoughts and notes from his study in the rear area.

In addition, the most common items are telescopes and pistols.

Li Yunlong wanted to find a small pistol for Xiuqin to protect herself, but found that there was no pistol suitable for women. Li Yunlong remembered that Commander He's pistol was quite small, and he had wanted to trick him into giving it to him, but he never had the chance because Commander He had just run away with the pistol.

He was getting married the next day and could have used the marriage as an excuse to ask for the gun, but he ran away. This guy really has no worldly manners at all.

In addition to these things, there were also telegrams from the gentleman and other things, which Li Yunlong carefully put away.

"Lao Li, I'll go prepare lunch for you."

"No, I'm going to the headquarters later. You should get some rest."

After Li Yunlong finished speaking, he picked up the leather coat and put it on himself. It fit him quite well. It was a bit loose when the brigade commander wore it, but it was just right for him.

"Old Li, do you want to return these things?"

Li Yunlong shook his head and said, "No, keep them. The binoculars and pistols can be distributed to commanders in our army who don't have binoculars. Save the list and we'll return them later when we have the chance."

"it is good."

After Li Yunlong talked with Xiuqin for a while, he walked towards the command center wearing a leather jacket in the hot weather.

As soon as I went out, I saw Monk Wei exercising, um, resistance training. Xiaohua was having a friendly exchange with Monk Wei.

Yu Zhigan and Duan Peng were watching the fun with peanuts in their hands.

Duan Peng asked curiously while eating peanuts, "Didn't they just get married?"

"The monk said he wanted to teach Xiaohua some self-defense techniques. He himself learned the Luohan Fist at Shaolin Temple, and he's currently teaching it."

Duan Peng nodded and continued to eat peanuts while watching the fun.

"Cough cough!"

Li Yunlong coughed lightly, and Duan Peng immediately stood up stiffly. Yu Zhiqian quickly put the peanuts into his pocket and looked at Li Yunlong calmly, "Hello, Commander."

"You stole my peanuts again."

Li Yunlong took out some peanuts from Yu Zhigan's pocket and looked at Monk Wei who was being beaten. "How long has it been?"

"It's been almost half an hour. Ouch, this one was pretty rough!"

Not far away, Monk Wei was kicked by Xiaohua, staggered back a few steps, and fell to the ground.

"This flower monk deserves to be beaten. He steals my peanuts every day."

Li Yunlong glanced at Yu Zhigan as he spoke.

"The commander is right. I can't stand seeing this monk stealing things every day. If I could beat him, I would definitely teach him a lesson on behalf of the commander!"

Seeing that Li Yunlong had discovered the peanuts in his pocket, Yu Zhigan no longer hid them. He took out peanuts from another pocket and started eating them, speaking indignantly while eating.

"Yu Zhigan, you're old enough, right? Why haven't you gotten married yet?"

"Commander, I don't want to get married. I'm fine the way I am. I have brothers at home..."

Li Yunlong didn't listen to what Yu Zhigan said, but continued to talk to himself: "I don't know if Xiaohua has any sisters. I'll ask her when the time comes. I think Xiaohua is not bad either. If she has an older sister or a younger sister, I'll introduce you to her."

"..."

Yu Zhigan swore that he would never eat peanuts again.

I saw someone mentioned the brigade commander's leather coat in the previous article. You can look for pictures of the Hundred Regiments Campaign, and you will see leather coats in them. They were supplies provided by the Soviet Union back then. If you want to know some stories about that time, I recommend a book, "Red Star Over China" or "Journey to the West".

Chapter 319: Profiteer Mode Launched

"Hey, Li Yunlong, you're not afraid of the heat even though you're wearing a leather jacket in the middle of summer!"

After watching the excitement, Li Yunlong ate peanuts and walked towards the command post with a smile. He saw the brigade commander washing his face. When he found that Li Yunlong was wearing the leather jacket he had given him, he couldn't help but make fun of him.

"Hey, Commander, you're right. This leather coat not only doesn't make you feel hot, it actually keeps you cool. Thank you. Don't worry, I'll definitely confiscate a new leather coat for you before winter comes."

The brigade commander waved his hand and said, "Alright, I'll give it to you. I have plenty of ways to do what I want."

After the brigade commander finished speaking, he wiped his face and said, "You fought well. Over 5,000 Japanese soldiers were taken out in just a few hours. You always manage to surprise me with new tricks."

Hearing the brigade commander's praise, Li Yunlong laughed instantly: "You are the best teacher. By the way, brigade commander, I have prepared your cavalry regiment. I will transfer it to you after we defeat Taiyuan this time. However, I don't have the commander and soldiers of the cavalry regiment here."

When more than 2,000 war horses were seized from Datong, Li Yunlong decided to distribute 1,000 of them to the brigade commander. After all, he had promised the brigade commander to give him a cavalry regiment.

Moreover, Li Yunlong's independent column really could not afford to support more than 2,600 war horses. When the New 1st Regiment raised a cavalry battalion, it had to try every possible means to barely keep it fed.

Now, with more than 2,000 war horses, we can form a cavalry division, but in the terrain of Shanxi Province, cavalry is not very useful.

Excluding the cavalry regiment that Li Yunlong left behind to be taken to the north, as well as the various regiments of the independent column, the war horses of the detachment commanders and the war horses of the signalmen, there was just enough space to allocate a cavalry regiment to the brigade commander.

The brigade commander's eyes lit up when he heard this: "You are really generous, kid."

"Brigade Commander, look at what you're saying. When have I ever boasted to you? My great brigade commander, I, Li Yunlong, always keep my word."

"Okay, I won't be polite with you. You don't have to worry about the personnel, and don't worry about me transferring Ma Renxin back. I will find a way to solve it myself."

The brigade commander looked at Li Yunlong with a smile. The more he looked at him, the more he liked him. After thinking for a moment, he said, "I can't always take your things. Tell me if you have any needs. If I can solve them for you, I will do it for you."

After hearing what the brigade commander said, Li Yunlong thought for a moment and said, "Brigade commander, I do have a question. My artillery is expanding quite quickly, and I need some experienced gunners. Do you think you can help?"

Hearing Li Yunlong's words, the brigade commander hung a towel on his shoulder and said: "You kid, you are used when you need people, and you are used when you don't need people."

"Hey hey hey."

The brigade commander thought for a while and said, "There are a few talented people in this area in the Taiyue Column. I'll transfer a few of them to you, but you have to return them to me after you use them."

"Please rest assured, Commander, I will definitely return it, I will definitely return it!"

"Okay, go get busy. There are still a lot of things waiting for you to deal with."

"Yes!"

In the command center, the army commander and others had already arrived. Li Yunlong was the last one to arrive. After seeing Li Yunlong, several people all laughed. Li Yunlong blushed a little embarrassedly.

The commander and others were still there to wait for Matsui Ishigen to be sent over.

Li Yunlong already had an idea about the issue of Matsui Ishigen. Although Li Yunlong wanted to put the old Japanese devil Matsui Ishigen into the magical cabin, considering Matsui Ishigen's identity, it would be too easy for him to stay in the cabin.

After all, he was a Japanese general. Li Yunlong would not feel satisfied whether he was killed directly or after interrogation.

First, keep his life, and after the Japanese are defeated, let him go to Nanjing to apologize, and then let this old Japanese die in Nanjing. Deal with the body, imprison it in a kneeling statue made of iron or other materials, and make him kneel outside the city of Nanjing.

However, this plan requires the approval of the headquarters. Given the commander's personality, he should agree. However, the matter of putting him in a bronze statue and kneeling outside the city of Jinling needs to be handled secretly by himself, as long as outsiders do not know about it.

The kneeling statue must be put up after the million-strong army crosses the river, otherwise it will easily be destroyed by some people. After all, Li Yunlong would not be surprised if some people could re-employ Ningji Gangcun after the war and do some shameless things.

"The telegrams have been sorted out for you. Take a look."

After Li Yunlong greeted him with a smile, he took the telegram handed to him by the commander and read it quickly.

The battle ended at 9:30 in the morning.

This Japanese Marine Corps was completely wiped out. Some Japanese may have escaped, but their number was not large. More than 4,300 bodies were found at the scene, and some were incomplete.

In addition, what surprised Li Yunlong the most was that he captured the Japanese Navy Vice Admiral, Ouchi Denshichiro alive.

"Yo, another Japanese lieutenant general was captured."

After seeing Zhang Dabiao's telegram, Li Yunlong laughed instantly. He had just captured a Japanese general, and the next moment he captured a Japanese lieutenant general, and a naval lieutenant general. This achievement was probably unique to him in the whole country.

"I knew this kid would laugh when he saw this telegram. Wasn't I right?"

Li Yunlong heard several commanders laughing at him, and coughed and said, "Commanders, I am not laughing because I captured the Japanese lieutenant general. I am laughing because I captured the Japanese lieutenant general and now I have a general's sword to sell."

It is estimated that Matsui Ishigen's general sword will not fall into his hands, but will be sent to the rear headquarters. Li Yunlong has no intention of taking it. If possible, Li Yunlong is ready to give it to the gentleman personally as a gift.

Moreover, the samurai sword that Li Yunlong wanted was in the Japanese city of Taiyuan.
