Chapter 253 Report back to headquarters, Brigade Commander: Li Yunlong, I congratulate you
Seeing the fire not far away, a senior staff officer of the Eighth Route Army was suddenly surprised and said: "Boss, look, it's Captain Li and the others! It's Captain Li and the others!"
The boss nodded slightly: "Well, it should be Li Yunlong and the others. Let's go up and have a look."
After saying that, the boss walked up to the firelight, and the others followed closely behind.
Soon, Li Yunlong also spotted the boss and his party who were coming out to greet them. When they were still dozens of meters away, he immediately got off his horse and greeted them.
"Boss, chief of staff, division commander, brigade commander!"
Li Yunlong saluted, and then said with a playful smile: "Hey, actually you don't have to give us face like this, just wait at the headquarters."
Good guy, are you so proud of yourself?
The brigade commander's face suddenly darkened and he scolded: "Li Yunlong, just after a small victory, your tail is raised to the sky? Are we giving you face? We are giving face to the Japanese major general."
"Let me tell you, don't think that you don't know who you are just because you have achieved some military exploits. I haven't settled the matter of your disobedience on the battlefield with you yet."
"If you lie again about being a Japanese Major General, then you will be punished for all the crimes and you will be shot!"
Hearing this, Wang Chengzhu, who was behind Li Yunlong, suppressed his laughter, and his stomach almost ached, making you act so coquettish.
The smile on Li Yunlong's face suddenly froze, and he hurriedly explained: "Brigade commander, you have to speak with your conscience. Didn't I ask Lao Zhao to withdraw the main force of the new regiment to the headquarters? How can there be disobedience on the battlefield?
?”
"Besides, I went to the Huting stronghold because I got news that a Japanese observation group was coming."
"Sure enough, isn't this a big fish? Not only were more than 200 Japanese officers eliminated, but one Japanese officer and six Japanese commanders were also captured.
Later, they used a trick to besiege the 9th Japanese Brigade in Hulu Gorge. If Ding Wei had not been incompetent in his command, we would have definitely wiped out this Japanese army."
Hearing this, Ding Wei's expression on the side suddenly became extremely weird. He glared at Li Yunlong and said to himself, "You are a big chamber pot like Li. In order to avoid being punished, you even threw the pot on my head. This shows no regard for brotherhood."
.
However, Li Yunlong seemed not to see Ding Wei's eyes and continued: "Although we failed to completely wipe out the 9th Japanese Brigade, we still severely damaged it. Only more than a thousand people escaped, and some of them were eliminated.
A Japanese captain.
In addition, we also severely damaged the 22nd Japanese Infantry Regiment and the Black Island Cavalry Regiment, killing a total of 8,000 enemy soldiers."
"Brigadier, even if I have a little disobedience on the battlefield, considering the many military exploits I have accomplished, you don't have to shoot me, right?"
Brigadier: "Are you done?"
Li Yunlong: "It's over."
Brigadier: "Where is the Japanese Major General? Where is he?"
Li Yunlong: "Right here."
With that said, Li Yunlong turned to the new group of soldiers behind him and ordered: "Bring the Japanese Major General up!"
"yes!"
The commander of the Second Company of the Independent Battalion, Tian Shuisheng, agreed and immediately led his men to escort Hattori Naomi and a group of Japanese prisoners up.
Li Yunlong pointed at Naomi Hattori and said: "Brigade commander, division commander, chief of staff, boss, look, this is the Japanese major general captured by our new regiment."
Everyone fixed their gazes on Hattori Naoomi. With the help of the surrounding firelight, they could clearly see Hattori Naoomi's appearance and the major general uniform he was wearing.
Behind Naoomi Hattori, there were more than a dozen Japanese officers. In addition to the six Japanese colonels, there were also several majors and lieutenants.
Everyone was tied up with five-flowered buns and tied up with a rope, like a string of candied haws.
The brigade commander asked: "Do you know the identity of this Japanese major general?"
Li Yunlong: "Report to the brigade commander, he hasn't been interrogated yet, but we have his military officer's ID card, but it's all written in Japanese language, so hey hey hey..."
Li Yunlong smiled coquettishly and did not continue talking. Instead, he took out two large piles of Japanese military certificates from his pocket, which amounted to more than a dozen.
"The Japanese military ID is right here."
The boss glanced at the military officer's ID card in Li Yunlong's hand, and instructed one of the staff officers wearing glasses: "Controller Liu, take a look at these military officer's ID cards."
"yes!"
Staff Officer Liu agreed, then separated from the crowd and stepped forward to take the officer's ID card from Li Yunlong's hand.
"Boss, this Japs major general is Hattori Naoomi, the brigade commander of the 21st Japanese Brigade in North China, and these Japs commanders are..."
Staff Officer Liu told the Japanese's identities one by one through their military officer certificates.
"Hahaha! He is indeed a Japanese Major General!"
The boss laughed, and then asked: "Li Yunlong, as far as I know, all Japanese commanders have their own command swords. Where is Naoomi Hattori's command sword?"
Li Yunlong: "Boss, I am preparing to give you this general's sword as a tribute!"
After saying that, Li Yunlong turned around and trotted to the back of a carriage, then turned back carrying a sack.
"Boss, this is your general's sword."
Li Yunlong opened the sack, took out the general's sword from inside, and handed it to the boss respectfully with both hands.
A military officer's sword is already quite rare, and a general's sword is even more rare. It's not that the Japanese general's sword is valuable, it's mainly because only major generals and above officers are eligible to wear it.
Therefore, in order to capture a general's sword, one must at least defeat a Japanese combat unit at the brigade level and kill or capture the brigade commander.
Yes, even this is only possible, not certain.
When Naoomi Hattori saw his command knife being put in a sack by Li Yunlong like it was garbage, he felt extremely angry. Unfortunately, the old man's mouth was blocked by a pair of smelly socks, so he could only stare.
In fact, it was not that Li Yunlong was pretending to be rich, the main reason was that he killed and captured more than 200 Japanese officers this time, and naturally he also captured so many command knives.
Among them, there are more than 30 Zuoguan knives alone, so we don't take these Japanese command knives too seriously.
The Japs' Wei Guan Dao may not be very precious, but the Zuo Guan Dao is very rare wherever it is placed, and it is a reflection of military exploits.
Because owning a Zuoguan Sword proves that you have defeated at least one battalion-level Japanese combat force.
Li Yunlong was able to capture so many command knives this time because he happened to ambush the Japanese battlefield observation group.
The boss may have never seen a Japanese command knife, but he wants to assume he knows something.
"The ivory handle and the golden thread are the Japs' general swords. It's unmistakable!"
The boss couldn't put it down and watched it for a while, then he pulled the saber out of the scabbard with a clang, and a cold light flashed in an instant.
"Good knife!"
The boss admired from the bottom of his heart, and a group of officers from the Eighth Route Army and the Shanxi-Sui Army also gathered around, wanting to see this Japanese general's sword.
There is no way, the Japanese general's sword is too scarce and too difficult to obtain.
Li Yunlong grinned and said: "Hehehe, leaders, don't be envious, everyone has one, but there is only one general sword, so I can only give you the assistant officer sword."
"Chief of Staff, this is yours."
"Teacher, this is yours."
"Brigadier, this is yours..."
Li Yunlong took out the Japanese command knife from the sack and distributed it to everyone one by one.
When the brigade commander took the Zuoguan knife from Li Yunlong's hand, he immediately smiled slyly: "Li Yunlong, you have captured a lot this time, I congratulate you..."
Chapter completed!
