My client Li Yunlong

Chapter 11 Brigadier, happy birthday!
The independent group was very busy that night.

The cooks were busy preparing a sumptuous meal of white face masks for the whole group.

Under the leadership of Kong Jie, the entire battalion company of the Second Battalion memorized the sand table of the Liao County Prisoner of War Camp based on the drawings of Deputy Commander Kong.

The second battalion is composed of all combat backbones.

Actual combat experience time after time tells them that if they can memorize the battlefield terrain and be familiar with the enemy's firepower distribution and position structure before participating in the battle, the probability of survival will be much greater, and they can kill the enemy more efficiently.

So, everyone is serious.

···
The next morning.

The soldiers of the second battalion went to rest, but the cadres of the squad, platoon and company gathered at the regiment headquarters to prepare for a combat meeting and formulate a combat plan.

Before this,

Li Yunlong came to the regiment headquarters early.

"Captain."

Wang Huaibao walked into the regiment headquarters and reported to Li Yunlonghui:
"Following your order, I led people to visit more than a dozen villages around Yangcun. No ordinary people saw the plane or the large transport convoy."

"I have also investigated the area near that mountain stream. There is only one horse trail there, and no traces of wheels were found. There are no caves, tunnels, etc. within a radius of ten miles."

"understood."

Li Yunlong waved his hand and said:

"You go back first."

Then, he walked into a temporary warehouse behind the regiment headquarters and looked at the five boxes of pens, five boxes of paper, and five boxes of ink on the table.

The pen comes in a box, which contains only one pen and five spare nibs.

"Hey, the God of Wealth is here."

Captain Li showed a proud and crazy smile.

Two batches of weapons, ammunition, and supplies totaled nearly 200 million rounds of ammunition, [-] firearms of various types, [-] grenades, [-] kilograms of white flour, as well as these papers, pens, and inks.

The cumulative value exceeds one million silver dollars.

The package weighed more than thirty tons, and it arrived near Yangcun silently without anyone noticing.

This method of transportation sends chills down your spine.

But it also proved that Brother Lu, who didn't know where he came from, had means and abilities beyond his imagination, and was fully capable of executing every clause of this contract.

Although he hasn't fully understood the terms of the contract yet,

But there is no doubt that he, Li Yunlong, is about to become a rich man!

"Guard."

Li Yunlong called the security guard.

"Captain."

The guard stood at attention and saluted.

Looking at the young guard, Li Yunlong thought of what Lu Renjia said - on the Cangyunling battlefield, he rescued many wounded members of the independent regiment, including Wang Chengzhu, and his previous guard, Hu Zi.

It is expected that these injured will be discharged from the hospital and return to the team next week.

He had seen the injuries of Huzi and Zhuzhu. They were both no longer breathing at that time, especially Huzi, whose whole body was bruised and bloody. If they could be saved...
"You go to the brigade headquarters."

After withdrawing his thoughts, Li Yunlong picked up a box of pens, a box of paper, and a box of ink and handed them to the guard. Then he brought a bag of white noodles and said:

"Give these to the brigade commander."

"Just say..."

"I, Li Yunlong, wish the brigade commander a happy birthday."

Today is February 27th, the brigade commander’s birthday.

Li Yunlong was sure that the weapons and ammunition given to Ding Wei and the weapons and ammunition given to Cheng Shifa must have been known to the brigade commander.

As for the reason, Ding Wei was honest, and 20 rounds of ammunition were too many for the New Regiment. He probably had already handed over some of them. Cheng Shifa was afraid that he would regret it.

He gave an extra portion, and Ding Wei could probably guess what he meant.

But that's not necessarily true for Cheng Shifa.

However, because he gave the extra part, these two people would definitely not say that they got it from him.

He was very familiar with the personalities and styles of these two guys.

The brigade commander guessed that he was confused.

When he thought of the bewildered expression of the brigade commander, Commander Li couldn't help but smile.

"Yes."

The guard loaded up his pen, paper, ink, carried a 25 kilogram bag of flour on his back, rode a horse in the regimental stable, and ran quickly to the brigade headquarters.

······
After arranging the brigade commander's birthday gift, Li Yunlong came to the regiment headquarters, walked into the combat conference room, and began to discuss detailed combat plans with more than 20 battalion, company and platoon leaders of the second battalion.

Thanks to detailed intelligence, this battle plan was extremely detailed.

Includes breakout strategies for each stronghold.

Because the battle plan was so detailed, it was not until noon that the battle plan was actually drawn up.

···
at the same time.

"Report."

"Zhao Gang, a graduate of the Anti-Japanese University, come and report!"

Carrying a marching quilt on his back, Zhao Gang strode into the brigade headquarters and saluted the brigade commander.

"You came just in time. Our brigade is short of cadres right now."

Seeing Zhao Gang, the brigade commander was delighted:
"Any ideas about work issues?"

"I want to go to the frontline troops."

"..."

After a few minutes of brief and neat exchanges, Zhao Gang immediately prepared to leave for the Independence Regiment.

But before that, he needs to understand the specific situation of the independent regiment at the brigade headquarters, understand the situation of the entire brigade, and the enemy and friend situation in the base area where the entire brigade is located, so as to facilitate the work.

The information is quite complex.

Therefore, we can’t leave until tomorrow. ···
"Get ready, I'm going to the headquarters."

After arranging the work at the brigade headquarters, the brigade commander prepared to go to the headquarters for a meeting.

While the guards were preparing the horses and arranging the security forces, the brigade commander found a stool and sat in the conference room, looking at the topographic map of North China that occupied a whole wall...
On this map covering most of North China, old and new railway lines and highway lines are intertwined and connected, and Japanese strongholds and cities are densely covered, like a giant network closing in on the anti-Japanese base areas.

"Hey····"

After watching in silence for a long time in the deserted combat conference room, the brigade commander let out a deep sigh.

Under the prison blockade of the Japanese, the economic situation in the base area is becoming increasingly difficult, with increasingly scarce supplies of food and other necessary materials, as well as weapons and ammunition that are seriously unable to make ends meet.

This meeting at the headquarters was to discuss solutions.

The brigade commander was not worried about the Japanese blockade.

The worst thing is, organize the troops fiercely, beat him up, and destroy the Japanese blockade in one fell swoop.

It has been nearly three years since the all-out war of resistance. The current strength of the Eighth Route Army is beyond everyone's imagination, whether it is Japanese soldiers or preserved fruits.

It is enough to launch a large-scale raid, capable of beating up the Japanese and breaking the blockade.

But still unable to confront the Japanese.

The problem is that even if the Japanese are beaten painfully and the blockade is broken, the food, ammunition, medicine, etc. needed by the base area will still be a big problem that cannot be solved.

The Preserved Fruit Alliance was no longer in name only, and began to block the flow of supplies, not to mention the Japanese, with layers of blockades, making it difficult to transport even cloth into the base area.

Not to mention food, medicine, ammunition, etc.

Moreover.

Even if the Japanese Preserved Fruit does not block the passage and opens the passage, the troops do not have enough economic strength to obtain these materials.

The poor base area can no longer support the army to continue to grow stronger and implement self-reliance. Because the agricultural and social foundation of the base area is here, it can only solve a small part of the problem.

This is also the reason why we have to retreat step by step in the face of the Japanese blockade.

Moreover, there are currently no effective solutions to these problems.

"take it easy."

The brigade commander took a deep breath and comforted himself.

The protracted war strategy has been decided!
The Japs were very powerful and could easily suppress the military power of the entire Republic of China. Just one North China Front Army could launch a layer-by-layer blockade of the North China region.

But want to eliminate the Eighth Route Army and destroy the base area?

Impossible!

Thinking of this, the brigade commander suddenly remembered that Ding Wei had obtained the batch of bullets.

Already entering the warehouse of the 15th Brigade, [-] imported high-quality [-]-point ammunition.

15 rounds of ammunition, sparingly used, is enough for the [-]th Brigade to fight a tough battle with the Japanese.

Moreover, Ding Wei is also a dishonest guy, and he will definitely keep some for himself. He estimates that there are thirty to forty thousand rounds.

Cheng Shifa also seemed to have obtained [-] rounds of ammunition and four Czech guns.

"The situation is not that desperate..."

The brigade commander suddenly felt much better.

After the meeting at the headquarters, he would go to the New Regiment and the 772nd Regiment to have a look, find out the source and route of ammunition, and try to get as many bullets as possible if possible.

If there are 60 million rounds of ammunition, then there is no need to worry about the ammunition consumption of the [-]th Brigade in the next year.

"Brigade commander, Li Yunlong of the Independent Regiment sent his guards over."

At this time, a brigade soldier reported to the brigade commander.

"Independence Corps?"

"Li Yunlong?"

The brigade commander was stunned.

Ever since he sent Li Yunlong to the Independent Regiment for an inspection, he hadn't paid much attention to it.

What is the current situation of the independent regiment? Morale is low and equipment is lacking. No matter how courageous Li Yunlong is, he can't do many tricks.

Besides, this guy is really capable. He can capture more than he consumes. He is the only one in the whole division like this.Although he often violated discipline, he did not make fundamental mistakes.

It's better to let go.

It was just Li Yunlong who made trouble.

"Let him in."

said the brigade commander.

···
"Report."

Guard Li Yunlong walked into the brigade headquarters and saluted the brigade commander:

"On the order of Commander Li Yunlong, I came to wish the brigade commander a happy birthday."

"Happy birthday?"

The brigade commander was stunned for a long time.

He suddenly recalled that today was February 27th, his birthday.

Starting today, he will be 38 years old.

"These are some gifts that our group leader asked me to bring."

"A pen, a box of ink, a box of paper, and fifty pounds of flour."

As he spoke, the guard placed a bag of flour, a box of pens, a box of paper, and a box of ink on his back on the table at the brigade headquarters.

"What model is this pen? The quality is better than any of the boss's. The packaging is quite luxurious."

"Where did you get this kid?"

"Hahaha···"

The brigade commander opened the pen box, looked at the high-quality pen produced by the system, scratched the paper, put it away decisively, and then laughed loudly:
"Go back and tell this guy Li Yunlong for me."

"I received the gift and I am very satisfied."
