Chapter 131 The brigade commander doesn’t play by the rules
The 386th Brigade's East New Regiment, New Second Regiment, and Independent Regiment won the battle in the Yangcun area, and the news had already spread.
In the past few days, the brigade headquarters had received messages and phone calls from various parties one after another, asking whether Brigadier Chen was very busy.
Of course, Yan Laoxi and others knew whether the Eighth Route Army also sent troops to participate in the battle, and whether they could try their best to weaken the role of the Eighth Route Army.
In addition, they will give a series of awards to the 358th Regiment, but if they go to Brigadier Chen, what they will give is just a piece of award message.
But Brigadier Chen didn't care at all, because in those few days, he had already grasped all the situations.
In that Yangcun battle, not only Li Yunlong's New Regiment made a fortune, but Kong Jie's Independent Regiment and Ding Weixin's Second Regiment also benefited.
Didn't he wait for Brigadier Chen to congratulate Li Yunlong and others on their fortune, but the division commander's phone call came first?
Big fish eat small fish, and small fish eat shrimps.
Even though Brigadier Chen kept crying about poverty, he couldn't escape without a thousand rifles.
In the words of Lao Li, if you are a senior official, you will be crushed to death!
In the past, Brigadier Chen hung up the phone with a depressed look on his face. Now he could somewhat understand Li Yunlong's mood after being asked to take away weapons and ammunition.
Brigadier Chen's depression did not last long, because after receiving his order, the Iron Triangle had already arrived at the brigade headquarters.
After seeing Li Yunlong, Brigadier Chen smiled.
The division commander asked for a thousand rifles from him, so Brigadier Chen had to ask Li Yunlong for two thousand rifles to get a good deal.
"Brigadier Commander, how did they do in that battle in Yangcun? Didn't they embarrass our 386th Brigade?"
"Isn't it a bit disturbing? The little Japanese Major General's brigade commander was killed by the Jinsui Army. Otherwise, we, Old Li, will get you a general's sword."
"Did we, Lao Li, come here empty-legged that time? That's a little gift for you, the Officer's Sword."
"Brigadier, you must be crying. In that battle, their new regiment suffered a lot of casualties, and the loss of weapons and ammunition was also quite large."
"Now their regiment is not a guard force of the general headquarters. They don't even have the opportunity to go out to fight, and there is no way to replenish ammunition through seizures."
"See if you can replenish their new regiment with some ammunition, even if it's a double-hung bomb produced by the arsenal or a two-leg grenade."
When Li Yunlong saw Brigadier Chen, he first refused to salute, and then handed a sergeant's knife to Brigadier Chen.
Immediately afterwards, Li Yunlong's face looked pitiful and he started crying.
Ding Wei and Kong Jie looked at Li Yunlong and shook their heads. They couldn't do such a thing.
"Li Yunlong, I don't want to be playful with him. I didn't realize the seriousness of the matter!"
"Did the division headquarters just call me? I don't think they know about my affairs?"
"Li Yunlong, because of the mistake I made, it would be easier for me to revoke my position as commander of the new regiment and send me directly to the brigade headquarters to take the blame."
Brigadier Chen took out his riding crop, whipped it hard on the table, stared at Li Yunlong and said.
Li Yunlong was startled, with a panicked expression on his face.
He thought he could have a celebratory drink at the brigade headquarters, but judging from the brigade commander's attitude, he seemed to want to hold himself accountable.
Thinking of how he took the initiative to lead his troops to fight in Qingshan Town before the Yue puppet army launched an encirclement and suppression campaign.
Later, during the defensive operation in Yangcun, he also took the initiative to lead the troops to attack the puppet troops in the wrong month.
Lao Li knew that if those two matters were investigated for truth, what Brigadier Chen said was not wrong at all.
If you go to the brigade headquarters and take the blame, it will be an advantage for you!
Whether the new regiment can now take over the headquarters security forces, any transfer needs to be approved.
After all, they are the headquarters behind them. I beg you, because their transfer affects the safety of the headquarters, the consequences will be serious.
Just because nothing happened that time does not mean that any mistakes can be forgiven.
Without strict discipline, all troops will act randomly in the future, and that will lead to chaos.
"Brigade... Brigadier, he... he didn't make any mistake, right?" Li Yunlong wanted to pretend to be confused.
"Two times I took my troops out of the Yangcun position to attack without permission. Do you think I was right?"
"Li Yunlong, do I know if the New Regiment is now the security force of the headquarters?"
"The General Headquarters is behind Yangcun. If the General Headquarters makes a mistake, who will bear the consequences."
"Don't talk about me, Li Yunlong, when the time comes, even he can't shoulder that responsibility!"
Brigadier Chen looked at Li Yunlong angrily and scolded him loudly.
Li Yunlong lowered his head with a guilty conscience and did not dare to say a word.
He knew clearly that what Brigadier Chen said was untrue.
Ding Wei and Kong Jie looked at the angry Brigadier Chen. They stood aside and did not dare to say anything.
They were worried that if they said the wrong thing and made Brigadier Chen even more angry, then Lao Li would be completely hopeless.
"Each squadron of the new regiment will be left with a light machine gun, and each platoon will be left with a grenade launcher."
"Each battalion will keep four heavy machine guns, and the regiment headquarters will keep six mortars. All other weapons will be sent to the brigade headquarters."
"In addition, we will supplement some of our troops ourselves, and the brigade headquarters will supplement us with some technical troops."
"Li Yunlong, when I go back I will write an in-depth review and send it to the brigade headquarters."
"I don't want to fool around with things. If I don't reflect deeply, he will remove me from my position as regimental leader at any time."
The atmosphere in the brigade headquarters became a little tense, and several minutes passed.
Brigadier Chen put the riding crop on the table, looked directly at Li Yunlong and said.
"Brigadier, is that the end?"
"Don't the Yan command and division plan to remove him from the position of regimental commander?"
When Li Yunlong heard this, he said with an astonished expression on his face.
He also knew the seriousness of two unauthorized attacks. After listening to the brigade commander's previous reprimand, he felt that he might not be able to keep his position as regimental commander.
It turned out that the brigade commander could just ask for a batch of weapons and equipment to be taken away, and then write a review himself. This made Lao Li a little overjoyed.
"Then what do I want? I beg him to whip me a few times!" The brigade commander was so angry that he wanted to pick up the riding crop again.
"No, no, no, brigade commander, can he just ask..."
"No, Brigadier, why does he feel a little good?"
"Are you specifically trying to extort the weapons and equipment from their new regiment..."
Suddenly, Li Yunlong reacted.
Brigadier Chen made it clear whether he did not follow the routine!
Li Yunlong felt that Brigadier Chen had to first congratulate himself on getting rich, and then ask for weapons and ammunition.
It turned out that Brigadier Chen had given him a scare when he came, and Li Yunlong was completely frightened.
In a daze, a large amount of weapons and equipment from the new group had to be sent to the brigade headquarters.
Can there be a lot of light and heavy machine guns with grenade launchers, or even two infantry cannons?
Especially the two infantry cannons, Li Yunlong has always regarded them as his treasure.
Although mortars were left to Dongliumen, Li Yunlong wanted both mortars and infantry guns!
"Li Yunlong, I will keep all the weapons and ammunition that should be left behind."
"I shouldn't leave something behind. I beg you to leave one more thing. Let's see how he deals with me."
"I don't want to play tricks with him. He knows everything about me."
Brigadier Chen looked at Li Yunlong and said with a serious expression.
Li Yunlong thought for a while, then dejectedly agreed to come to the east.
After all, it is obvious that the official rank is overwhelming. If you have angered Brigadier Chen, the position of regimental commander may have to be revoked.
More importantly, Brigadier Chen also gave the new regiment Liudong weapons and equipment.
Moreover, Brigadier Chen has said that he will allocate a group of technical soldiers to the new regiment.
Is that what the new regiment urgently needs? After all, weapons such as light and heavy machine guns cannot be used by professional soldiers and cannot be deployed at all.
"We will leave Dong to use the weapons captured by the New Second Regiment and the Independent Regiment for his own use. If there is insufficient ammunition, ask Li Yunlong directly for it."
"That time our three regiments fought well in the Yangcun area, and both the general headquarters and the division headquarters sent commendation messages."
"That's wrong. The superior officer's department is very supportive and the capital has also sent a commendation message. Please show it to us."
Brigadier Chen took out a stack of messages and handed them directly to Li Yunlong and others.
The new second regiment has just been formed, and the independent regiment has just completed its rest and replenishment.
So that time, Brigadier Chen didn't ask them for weapons and equipment, but instead let them stay on their own.
Ding Wei and Kong Jie's faces were full of joy, while Li Yunlong stood aside with a slumped face, looking like he was very unhappy.
