The Boss of the Yan Family in Siheyuan

Chapter 417: Send a political commissar to the new regiment

"Brigadier, please calm down and drink a glass of water first. I have sent people to pick up the cavalry equipment for that battalion, but it will take time to go back and forth. However, I promise to deliver the horse equipment for the battalion to you tomorrow.

Brigade Headquarters." Yan Jiecheng nodded and bowed as he picked up the teapot and poured water for the brigade commander.

It's no good if you don't bow your head. Why should you still be carrying the punishment? If you make the brigade commander angry again, you will most likely be sent to the quilt factory as the director.

Although he knows that even if he goes to the quilt factory, he will be reused in a short time, but Yan Jiecheng still prefers to stay in the current army. After all, the soldiers of this army have been trained by Li Yunlong for almost a year, and their combat effectiveness is not outstanding.

The Czech independent group can be compared.

Moreover, the weapons and equipment of the Independent Regiment are not as good as the current New Regiment. There is no need for him to leave the good team behind to help Kong Jie clean up the mess.

"Hmph, let me tell you Li Yunlong, I haven't settled the matter for you about your disobedience on the battlefield last time. Don't think that giving me a battalion of horses and equipment can solve the problem. It's a merit or a demerit. Even if you do it,

You deserve great credit, but you still have to be punished." The brigade commander picked up the water glass and took a sip of water, then scolded Yan Jiecheng with a straight face.

"I know, I know you say this because you love me, brigade commander, and I don't want to disobey orders on the battlefield. But when the order from the headquarters came down, the enemy had already launched a charge against our unit, and the distance was only more than two hundred meters away. If we had followed the instructions at that time,

The headquarters gave the order to break out from behind, and the enemy will definitely press forward. Even if the new regiment can break through the enemy's heavy siege, at least half of the troops will be killed or injured." Yan Jiecheng said aggrievedly as he stood beside the brigade commander.

After all, a crying child has milk to eat. If he didn't complain, the brigade commander wouldn't know his difficulties.

After listening to Yan Jiecheng's words, the brigade commander was silent for a while. The reason why the Eighth Route Army was able to survive on the battlefield behind enemy lines was mainly due to the flexible command of grassroots officers like them.

After all, the Eighth Route Army is no better than the Central Army. The command system can only reach the brigade level, and the following levels must rely on people to contact them. If all combat orders are waited for instructions from above, then the day lily will be cold.

But this cannot be an excuse to disobey orders on the battlefield. After all, the order has been issued, and it must be carried out even if it is known that there is a dead end ahead. Otherwise, how can the headquarters command the troops in the future?

The brigade commander knew that this precedent must not be set, but he could not take the cavalry equipment of Li Yunlong's battalion in vain.

So the brigade commander pondered for a while and said: "No matter how many excuses you have, it is not the reason for your disobedience on the battlefield, but I can't take your Li Yunlong's equipment for nothing. So, when I get back, I will call the head of the headquarters to help you plead for mercy.

, but I can’t guarantee what will happen in the end. Finally, I will warn you again. If this happens again, I will kill you first without waiting for the boss to say anything. "

"Yes, yes, yes, I knew that the brigade commander was facing me. I promise this is the last time. If there is a next time, you don't need to do anything. I will unscrew the head and send it to you." Yan Jiecheng knew.

Since what the brigade commander promised would definitely be done, he said with a relieved smile.

"You, you, let me tell you what you are good at. Okay, remember to send a battalion of cavalry equipment to me tomorrow. I tell you, don't do anything short of me." As he talked, the brigade said.

The commander was about to get up and go out, but thought of something and turned back to warn Li Yunlong.

As Li Yunlong's old commander, the brigade commander knew Li Yunlong's character best. If he didn't warn him, he would definitely put some water into the cavalry equipment of a battalion.

For example, the equipment of three companies became two companies, or there were only horses but no horses to grab. Li Yunlong had the courage to do such things.

"Even if you lend me a hundred courages, I wouldn't dare to fool your brigade commander." Li Yunlong said with a smile on his face.

The brigade commander really had to say it. Li Yunlong originally planned to wait for Zhang Dabiao to bring the equipment back, then leave a company of horse equipment and send the rest to the brigade commander, but he didn't expect the brigade commander to say it.

"Humph, there is nothing in this world that you, Li Yunlong, dare not do." After saying this, the brigade commander went out directly, mounted his horse, and left.

It wasn't until the Brigadier's figure disappeared in the distance that Li Yunlong turned back and entered the house, lying on the bed and taking stock of the supplies in the space.

In addition to thousands of various books in a thousand cubic meters of space, most of the savings were food and meat. He had no idea he would come to this world before, and he did not prepare in advance.

Although this food seems to be quite large, for an army with more than a thousand people, it can only last for a month at most.

Not to mention those books, in this day and age, they are not as valuable as a bag of grain.

After counting the materials in the space, Li Yunlong went to the warehouse and took out some grain and meat. There was not much, only two thousand kilograms of flour and five hundred kilograms of pork.

The main purpose is to improve the food for the soldiers, and to free up some space to prepare for the next thing.

At this time, the brigade commander also rode back to the brigade headquarters.

"Go, tell the correspondent to connect me to the headquarters." After dismounting, the brigade commander did not rush back to the house, but ordered to the guard on the side.

"Hello, hello, this is the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army. Who are you looking for?"

"I am the commander of the 386th Brigade. I have important matters to report to the commander." The brigade commander came to the communication room and picked up the phone and said to the other side.

After waiting for a while, the voice of the head of the headquarters came from the other side: "Hey, Lao Chen, what do you want from me?"

"What, you want to ask that bastard to plead for mercy? Tell me, what benefits did he give you." The head of the headquarters knew Brigadier Chen's character, and he would definitely not mention Li Yunlong without benefit. After all, this is a major matter of disobedience on the battlefield.

"What, the horses and equipment of a cavalry battalion, for God's sake, where did Li Yunlong make his fortune?" the head of the headquarters asked in surprise.

You must know that the Eighth Route Army currently has only two divisions. Although the number of troops is relatively large, the equipment cannot keep up. There is not only a shortage of guns and ammunition, but also a shortage of food and military uniforms, not to mention cavalry.

Take the 386th Brigade as an example. The horses in the entire brigade are not enough to form a cavalry battalion.

"But even if he hands over the horses and equipment of a cavalry battalion, the punishment imposed on him by the headquarters cannot be revoked. After all, disobedience on the battlefield is not a child's play." The head of the headquarters thought for a moment. He wanted the cavalry battalion, and Li Yunlong's punishment could not be waived.

, but we cannot directly remove Li Yunlong from the position of commander of the new regiment as we did at the beginning. After all, he handed over a battalion of cavalry equipment, which cannot be disappointing.

So the head of the headquarters continued: "Well, although the punishment is unavoidable, it can be discussed. You can tell me what punishment to give him."

"Demoted to the acting commander of the new regiment and let him serve his crime." After hearing what the brigade commander said, the head of the headquarters thought for a moment and then said: "Okay, that's it, but you have to tell him that he will do this again next time."

I will not give him another chance if he makes a mistake, no matter how great his contribution is, I will kill him."

…………

Li Yunlong informed the cooking team that he would make dumplings for the soldiers tonight to improve their food, and then he went back to his room and lay down directly to sleep. He didn't even get up when the guards called him to eat.

When Li Yunlong got up early the next morning, Zhang Dabiao had already brought back a battalion of cavalry equipment.

At this time, we were on the training ground, discussing with Sun Desheng the matter of setting up a cavalry battalion for the new regiment.

"Captain, fortunately, I have lived up to my command. I have brought back to you all the cavalry equipment of a battalion." When Zhang Dabiao saw Li Yunlong coming, he immediately gave a military salute and said, as if he was asking for credit.

"Okay, let the soldiers stop quickly and send these horses and equipment to the brigade headquarters later." Li Yunlong waved his hand and shouted.

"Captain, this..." Zhang Dabiao didn't know what to say at this time. He had just brought the equipment back and the commander was going to give it to the brigade commander. So why did he run so far?

Sun Desheng on the side immediately stopped after hearing Li Yunlong's words: "Regiment Commander, how could you do this? The cavalry equipment our regiment finally obtained, the soldiers have worked so hard, why should they be given to the brigade?"

Commander? Even if we send them, we can’t send them all. Our regiment has to leave one company behind anyway.”

"Am I willing to give our regiment's cavalry equipment to the brigade commander? I know what you want most is cavalry, but that won't work this time." Yan Jiecheng said loudly.

"Captain, could it be that our regiment disobeyed orders on the battlefield last time?" After hearing Yan Jiecheng's explanation, Zhang Dabiao immediately thought of the incident when his regiment disobeyed orders and broke through from the front on the battlefield last time, so he asked Li Yunlong.

"That's right, the brigade commander said that if we don't send him the cavalry equipment of this battalion, I won't be able to take the position of regiment commander. And even if this thing doesn't happen, our regiment will not have the cavalry of this battalion."

I can't afford it." After speaking, Li Yunlong turned to Sun Desheng and said: "Old Sun, I know you want to lead the cavalry, and I promise that our regiment will definitely set up a cavalry battalion in the future, and you will be the battalion commander by then, but now I am sure

No, the conditions are not mature yet."

Although Sun Desheng was still a little reluctant to give up, there was nothing he could do. He didn't want to cause trouble to Li Yunlong for his own selfish desires.

"Dabiao, nothing unexpected happened this time." Li Yunlong asked Zhang Dabiao while looking at the horses on the training ground.

"I have already taken action personally. What accident can happen? Besides, I, Zhang Dabiao, look down on the puppet army's combat capabilities. They are not even worthy of carrying our soldiers' shoes." Zhang Dabiao said in a domineering tone.

"As long as nothing happens, okay, you can take the soldiers back to rest first. Come to the command room in the evening and let's have a meeting." Li Yunlong sent Zhang Dabiao away and then said to Sun Desheng on the side: "Old Sun, we'll be there later.

It is up to you to send the horses and equipment of this battalion to the brigade commander. By the way, only the equipment will be sent. Leave the grain, grass, and uniforms of the puppet army to me and move them to the warehouse."

"Got it." Sun Desheng agreed and then commanded people to start moving supplies. After all, this was a battalion of puppet troops, especially cavalry, and the supplies needed were not comparable to those of ordinary troops.

There are tens of thousands of kilograms of fodder for the horses alone, not counting the food for people and some canned food.

"Captain, look at these boxes of cigarettes..." One of the soldiers carrying supplies asked Li Yunlong, meaning he wanted to stay and share a pack to taste.

"Leave a dozen bags for me, and you can share the rest." Li Yunlong said and left without looking back.

………

The brigade commander received the equipment of a cavalry battalion from Li Yunlong, and left one company for himself. The equipment of the remaining two companies was immediately sent to the head of the headquarters.

"Old Chen, although Li Yunlong, a bastard like him, makes mistakes sometimes, he is really good at leading troops and fighting equipment." The head of the headquarters looked at the more than 200 horses and cavalry rifles sent by Brigadier Chen, and he was a little jealous.

said.

"Yes, after all, he has no education, and we can't ask too much from him." Brigadier Chen sighed and said. Most of the grassroots cadres of the Eighth Route Army, especially the military commanders, were born in a poor family. Although they devoted themselves to the revolution, they were still in their hearts.

There are still some bad habits, some of them are too selfish, and some of them like to make hills.

But there is nothing we can do about it. The current situation in the country is like this. Most people with high education are from good backgrounds, and the last ones are from the landlord class. After all, ordinary people do not have the money or the inclination to send their children to school.

"Do you think this is good? Li Yunlong has been serving as the new regiment since the death of the political commissar. Let's send him a highly educated political commissar. This way we can keep an eye on him and prevent this guy from making mistakes in the future." Head of the headquarters.

After thinking for a while, he said to Brigadier Chen who was standing aside, after all, the Eighth Route Army was under the leadership of the Party. It was not possible for someone like Li Yunlong to give up his position at critical moments. Someone had to take care of him and watch him at all times, so that he could feel at ease.

"It's not impossible, but you also know that Li Yunlong has a bad temper and can't get along with several political commissars. If this affects the combat effectiveness of the army..." Brigadier Chen frowned and said, this is what he said.

Worried, otherwise with his character he would have sent a political commissar long ago, how could he have waited until now.

"No matter what, the army cannot be without a political commissar. This political commissar must be sent to Li Yunlong. If the army loses its combat effectiveness because of the dispatch of a political commissar, it will be because of Li Yunlong. It will be up to me how to deal with him." The head of the headquarters said with a heavy hand.

He slapped the table and said angrily.

"Okay, then who should we let pass?"

"Well, that's a problem." After hearing what the brigade commander said, the head of the headquarters thought while circling the table. It took him a long time to think of a person in his mind, so he immediately said: "What do you think of Comrade Zhao Gang?"

"Don't tell me, it's really good, but isn't he studying at the Anti-Japanese University?" Brigadier Chen's eyes lit up when he heard the name. He knew Zhao Gang. He participated in the revolution very early and led the 129th Movement.

, not only in terms of culture and knowledge, he is considered outstanding. If he is sent to be the political commissar of the new regiment, it will really be Li Yunlong's creation.
