I am helping

At present, the 386 Brigade has quite a few 75mm mountain guns and 105mm howitzers.

But there are only two 150mm howitzers in total.

As for the two 150mm howitzers, Li Yunlong gave them to the brigade commander out of his own pocket for the sake of fighting with the brigade commander.

Even the teacher had no reason to rob.

The 150mm howitzer is a rare commodity in the Eighth Route Army, and the 203mm howitzer is even more serious.

The howitzer regiment equipped by the headquarters and the howitzer battalion equipped by the new regiment have a total of only about 150 70mm howitzers.

There are fewer 203mm heavy howitzers, only 16 in total.

And almost all were equipped by the artillery units of the new regiment and headquarters.

"Too rich."

"Li Yunlong is simply too rich."

While regretting, the brigade commander couldn't help but speak with emotion.

The strength of the new regiment may soon surpass that of the 386 brigade.

In half a year at most, when the expansion of this new wave of regiments is completed, and the expanded troops have formed combat effectiveness, the strength of the new regiment is estimated to surpass the 386th brigade.

Don't look at the 386 brigade as just one brigade, but there are several reinforced regiments including the Taiyue Military Region and the 772 regiment.

Even the Independent Regiment and the New Second Regiment in Northwest Shanxi belong to the 386th Brigade.

Today, the 386th Brigade has the strongest combat effectiveness also Kong Jie's Independent Regiment and Ding Wei's New Second Regiment.

The combined number of mortars and mountain artillery of these two regiments has long exceeded the level of an artillery brigade.

After the two brothers Ding Wei and Kong Jie arrived in Northwest Shanxi, they made a lot of money with Li Yunlong, and they got along very well.

"or……"

Deputy Brigadier Han suggested:
"Brigade commander, please apply to the head of the headquarters to change the organizational system of the new regiment to our 386th brigade."

"In this way, every time Li Yunlong submits combat materials, he will go through our brigade headquarters, and then the division headquarters and headquarters."

"It's like holding pork in our hands. Even if we give the pork away, our hands will still be covered with oil."

"Of course, the big head still belongs to the division and headquarters. It's better for us to have a small head than nothing."

"I believe the teacher will definitely agree."

The brigade commander shook his head and said: "The head of the headquarters disagrees, what's the use of the division commander's agreement?"

"The head of the headquarters will definitely not agree." Chief of Staff Zhou said, "Now Li Yunlong directly handed over half of the things to the headquarters. If it is changed back to the new regiment and belongs to our 386 brigade, then the things Li Yunlong handed in will have to go through the 386 brigade. The brigade headquarters and the 129th division headquarters, this is tantamount to middlemen earning the price difference, and the head of the headquarters can calculate this account more clearly than us."

The brigade commander sighed, watching Li Yunlong successively hand over the 150mm howitzers, heavy tanks, 203mm heavy howitzers and combat supplies to the headquarters, he felt like a cat scratching his heart.

Originally, with just one phone call and saying Gong Xi Fa Cai, half of the weapons and equipment could be obtained.

Now, I can only stare blankly.

"It's all my fault. I didn't look at the problem from a long-term perspective. Li Yunlong was directly under the headquarters with only one artillery regiment."

Brigadier Chen couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

150mm howitzers, heavy tanks, and 203mm heavy howitzers are all good things.

In the future, there may be planes, warships...

Thinking of Li Yunlong's battle in the future, the air fleet roared, the ground roared with heavy artillery, and the tanks were overwhelming, and their 386 brigade was still playing with millet plus rifles.

The brigade commander felt a little uncomfortable, but he couldn't blame others, who let him be fooled by the lard back then?
"Brigade Commander!" Deputy Brigadier Han comforted, "Don't blame yourself too much. It's a good thing for Li Yunlong to get rich. Li Yunlong's consciousness is very high now. All his starting points are for this country and for this suffering. nationality."

The brigade commander nodded, feeling much better.

Boss Chen behind Li Yunlong chose Li Yunlong instead of anyone else as his aid target.

It shows that Li Yunlong has advantages that others do not have.

The starting point for Li Yunlong to make a fortune was not to eat, drink and enjoy, nor to get promoted and get rich. Even to obtain continuous assistance, Li Yunlong voluntarily refused to be promoted and remained the head of the new regiment.

Otherwise, with Li Yunlong's prestige and military achievements, he is now at least at the level of column commander and military commander.

"Report, Kong Jie, head of the independent regiment, has sent a telegram!"

Holding the telegram in his hand, a telegraph soldier of the brigade headquarter walked quickly into the brigade headquarters and gave a military salute with a snap.

"give me."

Deputy Brigadier Han took the telegram from the telegraph soldier and read it.

The telegraph soldier turned and left.

The telegram consisted of two pages. The further you looked back, the corners of Deputy Brigadier Han's mouth became wider and wider.

The first page is Kong Jie's report on the results and losses of the three counties in the defense zone.

For such a big battle against three counties, Kong Jie and Ding Wei naturally had to ask the brigade for instructions, and only dared to launch the attack after obtaining the brigade's consent.

On the second page of the telegram, Kong Jie was about to hand over four 4mm howitzers and four 150mm anti-aircraft guns.

Kong Jie did not hand in 300 submachine guns and 900 tons of grain, and explained it in the telegram.

"Old Han."

"What did Kong Jie say to smile so happily?"

"That boy Kong Jie won't hand in the 150mm howitzer, will he?"

The brigade commander picked up the porcelain cup and took a sip of cold boiled water.

Chief of Staff Zhou guessed: "I guess, the independent regiment should have successfully recovered the three county towns in the defense area, with great results and relatively small casualties."

"You all guessed right."

Deputy Brigadier Han laughed.

"Guess everything right?"

The brigade commander was taken aback for a moment, and then opened his eyes slightly: "Did Kong Jie hand in the 150mm howitzer?"

As for the recovery of the three counties in the defense zone, the brigade commander didn't care too much.

It is not the first time that these three counties have been recovered, and with the fighting power of the current independent regiment, it is not difficult to recover these three counties.

Seeing Deputy Brigadier Han nod his head affirmatively, the smile on the corner of Brigadier Commander's mouth instantly bloomed.

Seeing deputy brigade commander Han smiling so happily, the brigade commander just asked casually. Unexpectedly, Kong Jie actually handed in the 150mm howitzer.

The Chief of Staff Zhou on the side also had a look of disbelief, did Kong Jie also earn a 150mm howitzer?Is there any excess to hand over to the brigade department?

The brigade commander's breathing was a little short: "How many doors?"

"Four 4mm howitzers, and four 150mm anti-aircraft guns."

"Ammo is three bases."

"The delivery time is two days later, and the location is Yangcun Airport."

Deputy brigade commander Han handed the two telegrams to the brigade commander, and the brigade commander picked up the telegrams and read them.

"Do business with Li Yunlong?"

In the telegram, Kong Jie roughly explained the business partnership with Li Yunlong in the telegram. However, because the telegram is precious, there are only a few sentences, but the brigade commander and the others can fully understand and understand. understand.

Since Kong Jie can do business with Li Yunlong in partnership, then Ding Wei...

Ding Wei is also attacking three counties in the new second regiment defense zone this time. Did he also have business, earning 8 150mm howitzers and 37mm anti-aircraft guns?
The brigade commander suddenly thought of something, and said loudly: "Send a telegram to the New Second Regiment immediately..."

At this moment, the telegraph soldier hurried into the brigade headquarters again, holding the telegram in his hand.

"Report, Ding Wei, head of the Second New Regiment, has sent a telegram!"

The brigade commander stepped forward quickly, took the telegram from the telegraph soldier and read it.

The content of the telegram sent by Ding Wei was similar to that of the independent regiment. It also reported the recovery of three counties in the defense area, and handed over four 4mm howitzers and four 150mm anti-aircraft guns to the brigade headquarters.

After reading Ding Wei's telegram, the brigade commander finally couldn't hold back anymore and couldn't help laughing out loud.

Not to mention that the previous regrets were wiped out, most of them dissipated.

8门150毫米榴弹炮和8门37毫米高射炮，能够让386旅扩编一个榴弹炮营和高射炮营。

It was very clear in the telegram.

Ding Wei and Kong Jie can also do business. Although they are in partnership with Li Yunlong, most of them belong to Ding Wei and Kong Jie. Their business is just for Li Yunlong.

Li Yunlong has bigger and more businesses.

"Old Zhou!" The brigade commander looked at Chief of Staff Zhou, "Immediately call back the New Second Regiment and the Independent Regiment. On the one hand, we will reward them, and on the other hand, we will encourage them to do more business with the New First Regiment."

The brigade commander thought to himself, Li Yunlong was let go last time, and Ding Wei and Kong Jie must not be let go this time!
Compared with a one-shot deal, long-term business is more fragrant.

The richer Ding Wei and Kong Jie are, the richer the 386 Brigade Headquarters will be.

"Yes!" Chief of Staff Zhou was all smiles, and drew up two telegrams with similar contents.

"Today is really double happiness!"

"Xiao Wu, use all my allowance to buy meat. Today we have dinner at the brigade, and I'll treat you!"

The brigade commander called Xiao Wu, the guard, and the brigade head quickly ran out to buy meat after receiving the order.

Two days later.

Yangcun Airport.

Early in the morning.

The brigade commander, deputy brigade commander Han and chief of staff Zhou took the transport team of the 386th brigade and waited at the airport to receive the goods.

Although both Ding Wei and Kong Jie had to hand in four 4mm howitzers and four 150mm anti-aircraft guns, they did not specify the time.

And it was delivered at the same time, so the brigade commander and the others came to wait early.

直到中午，8门150毫米榴弹炮、8门37毫米高射炮和3个基数的炮弹才送达。

A few hours later, the brigade commander, deputy brigade commander Han, and chief of staff Zhou returned to the brigade headquarters, and the accompanying transport team also transported the 150mm howitzer, 37mm anti-aircraft gun, and three base shells back to the brigade headquarters.

"Good new howitzer."

Chief of Staff Zhou knocked on the barrel, and said in a crisp voice:
"The gun steel of this 150mm howitzer is of excellent quality, and this cannon is a German product, it should be imported from Germany."

Deputy Brigadier Han asked several artillerymen to check the barrel and said, "No inscription was found, and I don't know which country produced it."

"It doesn't matter which country it's made in."

"It's in the hands of our Eighth Route Army, as long as it can be fired."

Looking at the eight 8mm howitzers and eight 150mm anti-aircraft guns, the corner of the brigade commander's mouth was raised, and he didn't put it down for a long time.

However, another few hours passed.

The division commander called the headquarters, and the division commander said to the brigade commander on the phone: "Chen Geng, I congratulate you on getting rich. Hand in four of your eight 8mm howitzers. I will create a 150 howitzer battalion."
