Ding Wei and Kong Jie put down their chopsticks and raised their ears to see what gift Li Yunlong had prepared.
Looking at the expressions of Wang Dehou and Zhao Gang, Ding Wei and Kong Jie knew that the gift Li Yunlong said was true.
Li Yunlong took a sip of Fenjiu and a bite of soy sauce beef, and then said: "This big gift is the business of killing Naosaburo Okabe, the new commander of the North China Front Army. How about it? Our old Li treats you well, right?"
Naosaburo Okabe was flying from Northeast China to Peiping, and was shot down by a Shin-ichi aircraft over the western suburbs of Peiping Airport.
At that time, because the troops were about to attack, the counterattack broke out before Li Yunlong had time to receive the goods.
In this battle, Li Yunlong nominally commanded more than 300,000 Eighth Route Army troops and defeated the Japanese army.
A lot of money was seized, and the business price given by Boss Chen was a huge sum of money.
so.
Although the head of the headquarters asked about the business price of Naosaburo Okabe, the head of the headquarters asked Li Yunlong to keep the business price of killing Naosaburo Okabe.
And the price of this transaction, even if Li Yunlong gets half of it, is enough for the new regiment to expand its main elite force by 100,000.
Therefore, Li Yunlong planned to give Ding Wei and Kong Jie the business price of killing Naosaburo Okabe.
"Old Li, how much weapons and equipment will Boss Chen give you to kill Naosaburo Okabe?"
Ding Wei and Kong Jie's eyes both lit up. The two brothers looked at each other and saw a deep surprise in each other's eyes.
Ding Wei and Kong Jie estimated.
Although Naosaburo Okabe was killed before he officially took office, he was promoted to general and was officially appointed as the new commander of the North China Front at the Japanese base camp.
This means that Naosaburo Okabe's rank is the same as that of the current commander of the North China Front, Okamura Neiji.
This price cannot be lowered!
There are definitely 203mm heavy howitzers and Katyusha rocket launchers.
Moreover, this was the first time that the Eighth Route Army killed a Japanese general.
"How much weaponry?"
"I'll scare you if I tell you!"
Li Yunlong ate peanuts and smiled:
"A total of 48 203mm heavy howitzers, 48 Katyusha rocket launchers, and 24 88mm anti-aircraft guns."
Every time Li Yunlong said something, Ding Wei and Kong Jie's eyes became brighter and brighter.
Even if they are divided equally between the two, each person can get 24 203mm heavy howitzers, 24 Katyusha rocket launchers, and 12 88mm anti-aircraft guns.
Each can be expanded by 1 heavy howitzer battalion, 1 Katyusha rocket launcher battalion and 1 large-caliber anti-aircraft gun battalion.
In addition to the large-caliber anti-aircraft gun battalion, the heavy howitzer battalion and the Katyusha rocket launcher battalion are all regiment-level.
After being equipped with the heavy howitzer battalion and the Katyusha rocket launcher battalion, any one of the Independent Regiment and the New Second Regiment could confront the Japanese A-type division head-on and gain the upper hand.
Hearing this, Ding Wei and Kong Jie were already smiling.
Especially Kong Jie, whose face was already smiling like a chrysanthemum, which was in sharp contrast to his previous rogue appearance.
But it wasn't over yet, I heard Li Yunlong continue:
"In addition, there are 3,000 Jiefang trucks, 200 heavy-duty howitzer crawler tractors, and 1 million tons of fuel."
"Except for a set of oil field equipment, I asked Boss Chen to replace the remaining factories and weapons and ammunition production lines with 200 new 122mm heavy guns, 200 tanks and 50 armored vehicles."
"So, are you two satisfied with this great gift?"
The prices of generals and generals are also different.
For example, someone like Kohisao, who died as a lieutenant general and was posthumously awarded the title of general, had a price of 24 B4 heavy howitzers, as well as the corresponding Katyusha rocket launchers, trucks, fuel and production lines.
For a general with no real power like Honjo Shige, the price is 36 B4 heavy howitzers and the corresponding Katyusha rocket launchers, trucks, fuel and production lines.
As for generals with real power like Okamura Neiji and Okabe Naosaburo, who are front commanders, their business prices are higher than those without real power generals.
Li Yunlong couldn't imagine how great the price would be if he killed Tojo Eiji and Tian Locust!?
Although there are not too many factories and weapons and ammunition production lines, there are a lot of Japanese generals killed this time, and there are a lot of factories and weapons and ammunition production lines earned.
Due to the lack of technical personnel and limited raw materials, it would take a lot of time for the Eighth Route Army to digest these factories, weapons and ammunition.
There will be many opportunities to earn factories, weapons and ammunition in the future.
Therefore, Li Yunlong exchanged all the factories and production lines obtained by killing Naosaburo Okabe for heavy artillery and tanks.
If there was no shortage of pilots, Kong Jie and Ding Wei could even be replaced with planes.
"Satisfied, satisfied."
Kong Jie and Ding Wei had honest and cheerful smiles on their faces, like old farmers who were about to harvest a good harvest after a busy year.
This great gift from Li Yunlong is all heavy weapons that can crush the Japanese.
Want to ask if you are satisfied or not?
Kong Jie and Ding Wei must be extremely satisfied.
And this price is much higher than the 100 new heavy artillery, 100 tanks and 1,000 cars that Kong Jie asked for before!
If a new heavy howitzer battalion and Katyusha rocket launcher battalion are newly equipped, they can have the upper hand in a battle with the Japanese A-type division.
Coupled with these new heavy artillery, tanks and armored vehicles, after equipping the troops with combat effectiveness, do Kong Jie and Ding Wei have the confidence to shout, the Japanese A-type division is nothing?
"Lao Li, I was presumptuous before. I respect you with this bowl."
"From now on, you, Li Yunlong, are my half-brother, Kong Jie."
Kong Jie picked up the wine bottle, filled the bowl in front of him, then picked up the wine bowl, touched it with Li Yunlong and said:
"I did it, you can do whatever you want!"
After finishing speaking, Kong Jie picked up the wine bowl and took a sip.
Li Yunlong had no choice but to drink all the wine in the bowl.
Not to be outdone, Ding Wei toasted Li Yunlong with a bowl.
This batch of weapons and equipment cannot be bought with money, so Li Yunlong's generous gift was indeed beyond Ding Wei and Kong Jie's expectations.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Not to mention calling each other brothers, even if Kong Jie and Ding Wei are asked to call Li Yunlong daddy, if the two brothers hesitate for a second, it is disrespect for this batch of weapons and ammunition.
Kong Jie and Ding Wei were confident that if the Independent Regiment and the New Second Regiment were equipped with this equipment, they would have no problem dealing with a national army group.
In addition to the B4 heavy howitzer and Katyusha rocket launcher.
With these new heavy artillery, Ding Wei and Kong Jie can each expand to 3 heavy artillery battalions, 2 tank battalions and 1 armored battalion.
The American weapons that Li Yunlong gave them before can allow them to expand to about 30,000 people.
Now, with the addition of 9 heavy firepower battalions, the troops of the Independent Regiment and the New Second Regiment, there are already 40,000 troops.
This time, the reason why Li Yunlong was so generous.
Mainly because of the headquarters' plan to classify the Independent Regiment and the New Second Regiment from the 386th Brigade as troops directly under the headquarters, they will be under the long-term command of Li Yunlong.
After all, with the strength and equipment level of the Independent Regiment and the New Second Regiment, it would be inappropriate to continue to belong to the 386th Brigade.
After the counterattack against Japan is completed, the headquarters will reorganize the independent regiment and the new second regiment with the strength and equipment level.
Ding Wei and Kong Jie will be given officers based on their strength. By then, Ding Wei and Kong Jie will at least be at the level of corps commanders.
Of course, this is all for later.
Both Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang felt that the headquarters' arrangement was very good.
In the future, Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang will lead a new group to counterattack, drive the Japanese into the sea, and even counterattack Japan. They will inevitably fight in the north and south. Having Ding Wei and Kong Jie as their right-hand men will give Li Yunlong more confidence.
The only thing that makes Li Yunlong a little regretful is...
After the Battle of Zhengtai, he sent a telegram to Chu Yunfei, asking Chu Yunfei to come to Taiyuan to reminisce about the past.
However, Chu Yunfei has not replied yet.
"This is a good thing!"
Ding Wei also felt that the head of the headquarters' consideration was very reasonable, and he immediately said with a look on his face:
"After our expansion is completed, our new second regiment will have 40,000 troops, the independent regiment will have 40,000 troops, and the new first regiment will have 150,000 troops, totaling 230,000 main elite troops."
"Tanks, heavy artillery, aircraft, there is no shortage of any of them. With just our three regiments, we can sweep across North China and point our sword at the Northeast."
"Recover North China and Mongolia, then recover Central China and South China, take over Southeast Asia as well, expand the territory, and finally counterattack and liberate Japan, turning Japan into a province of ours."
"At that time, Lao Li had millions of elites, and Lao Kong and I also had millions of elites."
"We three brothers all have to become marshals."
"Are you, Ding Wei, qualified to be a marshal? Being a major general is enough to promote you." Kong Jie said immediately, "I am about the same as Lao Li being a marshal."
"It's passed."
Although Li Yunlong was yearning for it in his heart, he still said on the surface:
"Although our Lao Li is a handsome man, it's still too early to say this."
"Old Li, you have to have dreams in life." Ding Wei took a bite and looked at Li Yunlong and said, "You have Boss Chen behind you. As long as you work hard, nothing is impossible?"
Next, the three brothers drank a lot of wine, bragged for more than an hour, discussed some matters about receiving goods, and then broke up the banquet.
Ding Wei and Kong Jie left with satisfied expressions after eating and drinking.
When leaving, the three brothers put their arms around each other, as if they were wearing a pair of trousers.
When Zhao Gang and Wang Dehou saw this, they were both a little envious. This was their old comrade-in-arms.
As Li Yunlong continued to send telegrams to Boss Chen to confirm the receipt of goods, more and more weapons, ammunition, medicines and grains were transported by large transport aircraft and large helicopters to Taiyuan, northwestern Shanxi and southeastern Shanxi, and entered the Eighth Route Army warehouse.
As weapons and ammunition entered the warehouse, various departments of the Eighth Route Army, including the 129th Division, the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region, the New Regiment and other main forces, began to recruit troops with great fanfare.
The Jizhong Military Region also began to assemble a large number of guerrillas, district brigade and district teams, as well as high-quality militiamen.
These guerrillas and militia troops began to gather towards Jingxing County, then got on the train and were taken directly along the Zhengtai Railway to Taiyuan.
After these guerrillas and militiamen arrived in Taiyuan, they began to accept the reorganization of the new regiment and became the main force of the new regiment.
