When Kong Jie and Ding Wei heard this, their eyes lit up.

"Make a fortune?" Kong Jie said, "Lao Li, the sun came out in the west today?" ”

Ding Wei also said: "In the past, I looked for you with Lao Kong, and you only gave you a soup to drink, why do you want to take us to make a fortune today?" ”

Li Yunlong said: "Don't be too happy too early for the two of you, including taking you two to make a fortune, and giving you two 75mm guns, labor and management give you two such a heavy gift, it is all conditional." ”

"I knew that this thing was suddenly so kind, it must not have been a good fart!" Kong Jie looked at Ding Weidao.

"Then it depends on what conditions you mention, as long as it's not too much, we can try our best to meet them." Ding Wei said in a deep voice.

Hehe, with a smile, Li Yunlong said: "It's not too much at all, our old Li's condition is that when our three regiments have the opportunity to fight together in the future, your new second regiment and independent regiment must accept the full command of our old Li." ”

"Let the two of you take your command? Why? Kong Jieniu's eyes widened, "Just because your head looks like a night pot?" ”

"That's it!" Ding Wei also said, "You still want to command the two of us, thinking that you are the brigade commander?" If you want to get over the brigade commander's addiction and recruit troops yourself, it's not difficult to get thousands of guns from your aid channels, right? What's the matter with the two of us? ”

Li Yunlong snorted: "I won't hide it from you, labor and management are going to recruit troops openly, and our new regiment will already exceed 5,000 people." ”

"I have food and weapons, I just need to raise my arms and shout, and the people who want to join our new regiment can be lined up from here to Taiyuan."

"Do you know why I didn't recruit soldiers?"

"Why?" Kong Jie asked, he knew that Li Yunlong's words were true, and now Li Yunlong's reputation was really big.

Ding Wei also had curiosity on his face, if he has food and guns, he hasn't expanded, isn't that a fool?

Li Yunlong said: "Do you still remember, last year and the year before last, our Eighth Route Army expanded too violently, and the veterans were too diluted, and some basic regiments only had a backbone company of veterans, and the strength of the troops was expanded more than ten times, and the ammunition and food were insufficient, but the combat effectiveness of the troops fell off a cliff, and some basic regiments only had two or three hundred guns, each gun added up to less than five bullets, and it was difficult to even pull out a turret. ”

"That's why you don't recruit soldiers yourself, and you are looking for the brigade commander to ask for militia and new recruits from the teaching regiment?" Ding Wei asked.

"That's right, blindly expanding the number of people is not a good thing, and improving the combat effectiveness of the troops is the key." Li Yunlong said.

"Makes sense." Kong Jie also nodded.

Although weapons and equipment are important for winning battles, we must also not ignore strategy and tactics, the tactical command of commanders, and the combat quality of soldiers.

"It's far away." Li Yunlong asked, "What's the matter, do you two accept the command of our old Li?" ”

"Don't accept it, your old Li wants to command the two of us, but it's not qualified enough." Kong Jiedao.

"Lao Tzu is not qualified?" Li Yunlong glared, "When you Lao Kong was still a recruit in the army, our Lao Li was already a veteran who had been in the army for ten months. ”

"Yes, your old Li qualifications are old, but you are not a brigade commander." Ding Wei said, "If you are the brigade commander, we have nothing to say, we must obey your command, who made you not the brigade commander?" ”

"That is, this is a matter of principle, and Lao Ding and I will never compromise." Kong Jie also said, "You Lao Li wants to command the two of us, but there is no door." ”

"I said that Lao Ding and Lao Kong, you misunderstood, our Lao Li didn't mean that." Li Yunlong said busily.

"And what do you mean?" Kong Jie asked.

"I'm just thinking about the brigadier's addiction, so can I do it once?" Li Yunlong said.

"Not once!" Ding Wei said, "This is a matter of principle. ”

"That's it!" Kong Jie also helped, "Have you ever thought that the brigade commander would be addicted to expanding the troops by himself, and what is the matter with commanding the two of us?" ”

"Can't meet these requirements and conditions? There is no free lunch in this world, if you can't meet Lao Tzu's conditions, Lao Tzu won't take you to play,! Still want to get rich? Be your mother's big dream of spring and autumn," Li Yunlongniu's eyes widened, and his face turned pale.

"So, our 75mm mountain artillery field artillery is gone?" Ding Wei asked.

"Our Lao Li spits a nail in one mouthful, and the cannon will still give you two, but Lao Tzu didn't promise to give you two shells..."Li Yunlong's tone was slightly cold, "Lao Tzu's cannons and shells are not blown by the wind, it is enough to give you two people and one infantry cannon for nothing, and if you want shells, you have to agree to my conditions first." ”

"What a cut!" Ding Wei scolded, "What is the difference between this cannon and no cannonballs, and smoke but no fire?" old comrades-in-arms, you have tens of thousands of shells in your warehouse, and you can't give 200 shells, I think you simply ask the rich man Li to get it, I think you are more valuable than the landlord. ”

"Hey, hello Rich Master Li!" Kong Jie said hello to Li Yunlong in a matter-of-fact manner.

"Look at you singing and harmonizing." Li Yunlong said, "I don't know, I still think you two are singing big dramas?" ”

Hehe smiled, Li Yunlong said again:

"Forget it, forget it, if our three regiments have the opportunity to fight together in the future, your two regiments will have to cooperate with our new regiment to fight."

"That's all right, right?"

"That's not too much, is it?"

"If you don't agree to this condition, then where did you get the cannon back, and you don't have to worry about the food."

"That's not too much." Kong Jie nodded and looked at Ding Wei.

"Okay, if that's the case, then I'm fine." Ding Wei nodded.

"Then I'm fine." Kong Jie said.

Cooperate with a single operation in exchange for a 75mm mountain cannon and a chance to make a fortune, it's just blood, right?

"Then it's decided!" Li Yunlong nodded very much, and smiled happily.

Ding Wei and Kong Jie glanced at each other, how could they feel like they had fallen into a pit?

Next, Li Yunlong discussed some details of making a fortune with Kong Jie and Ding Wei.

After the new regiment is finished, it will cut leeks at the devil defense points on the Yuliao Highway and the Baijin Railway, seize them and distribute them to Ding Wei and Kong Jie, and the aid will go to Li Yunlong.

But Ding Wei and Kong Jie were not captured in vain, and they needed to send troops to help the new regiment.

Ding Wei and Kong Jie were naturally happy and agreed on the spot.

Li Yunlong then asked the cooking class to prepare wine and food, and took out good wine and meat to treat the two of them.

Then Li Yunlong took out his shotgun to show it, and the huge power made Ding Wei and Kong Jie envious.

The old comrades-in-arms are like this, just after the quarrel, they can immediately wear a pair of pants again.

In the end, Ding Wei and Kong Jie each took 1 75mm gun and shells back.

Although the performance of Ding Wei's Italian cannon was not as good as that of Kong Jie's, the cannon had more shells than Kong Jie's, with more than 300 shells.

……

The brigade commander, deputy brigade commander Han, and chief of staff Zhou got the news that after Li Yunlong was robbed of five mountain artillery pieces by the division commander, he gathered another mountain artillery battalion.

However, the brigade commander was not prepared to rob Li Yunlong.

The reason is also very simple: once he robbed two mountain artillery companies from Li Yunlong, the division commander would definitely rob at least one mountain artillery company from him when he found out.

And if he doesn't rob Li Yunlong, then Li Yunlong's mountain artillery battalion is the mountain artillery battalion of the 386 Brigade, and he can transfer it at any time.

Time passed inadvertently, from mid-May to mid-July in the blink of an eye.

During this period, the new regiment changed a lot, first of all, the number of troops was expanded from more than 1,700 to more than 2,500.

After being robbed of 5 mountain artillery pieces by the division commander, Li Yunlong asked the division commander to ask for company and platoon-level officers, and the division commander asked him to be promoted from his own regiment, Li Yunlong retreated and asked the division commander to approve Li Yunlong to go to the 385 Brigade to select backbone elite soldiers to recruit new soldiers for the sword detachment, and the division commander agreed, but each regiment could only let Li Yunlong choose a maximum of 5 people.

At present, the 385th Brigade has three regiments, namely the 13th, 14th and 769th Regiments.

Li Yunlong sent Lu Yingjun to select a total of 15 veterans from these three regiments, and another 5 from the new regiment, and now Lu Yingjun has more than 50 soldiers under his command, which has been expanded into a sword squadron.

Of course, the Sword Squadron is still a company-level formation.

After that, the artillery company was expanded into an artillery battalion, equipped with 12 M1A1 American 75mm mountain guns.

The original 1 infantry gun and 15 mortars were issued to each battalion to expand into artillery platoons directly under the battalion, and with the addition of Bazooka equipped by each battalion, the battalion and company firepower was greatly enhanced.

However, Li Yunlong still felt that the firepower was not enough, and he had to increase it.

In addition, the guard platoon of the new regiment was expanded into a guard company.

At present, the company battalion directly under the new regiment consists of three main infantry battalions, cavalry battalions, artillery battalions, machine gun companies, heavy machine gun companies, guard companies, and sharp sword special squadrons.

Counting the Sword Special Detachment, there are a total of 19 formed companies, and if you add up to the artillery platoons directly under each battalion in addition to the artillery battalion, there are also 3 artillery companies, and the total company exceeds 20 companies.

In Li Yunlong's words, our old Li is now the real landlord!

Next, Li Yunlong began to work on the Baijin Railway and the Yuliao Highway.

The devils brought in cement and built 11 reinforced concrete strongholds on the Yuliao Highway, and it would be difficult to bombard it with infantry.

However, the new regiment is now different from what it used to be, equipped with 12 75mm mountain guns, and when there are enough shells, these reinforced concrete strongholds are the coffins that the devils have built for themselves.

There is no suspense in the ending.

These devil strongholds on the Yuliao Highway were swept away by the new group within half a month, including the strongholds around the county seat of Yushe and Liao County.

More than a dozen devil strongholds on the Baijin Railway were also swept away.

The new regiment swept away more than 30 devil strongholds in a month, which was equivalent to the amount of 90 machine guns.

Ding Wei and Kong Jie also followed suit, and in addition to the captured equipment, they each obtained 5 machine guns and 5 bazooka from Li Yunlong.

Of course, the big head is still Li Yunlong and his new group.

Just when Li Yunlong was thinking about it, it should be time to take the two county towns of Yushe and Liaoxian.

The headquarters of the Eighth Route Army began to make big moves.

Li Yunlong was called to the headquarters for a meeting, and as a result, the meeting took several days.

……

(I wanted to fight the devil stronghold of the Baijin Railway and the Yuliao Highway for a few more chapters, think about it, what was written earlier, no matter how much water is not much cooler, directly start the battle of the hundred regiments.) ）
