My client Li Yunlong

Chapter 8 Quotations from Li Yunlong: To be a good person, you must be honest.Just treat it as a small loss and sell him a favor.

"Captain, with these twenty military horses, our independent regiment has 37 horses. Our second battalion can organize a cavalry platoon."

Returning to the Independent Regiment, Zhang Dabiao happily reported to Li Yunlong.

Cavalry is a good thing.

Although the enemy's firepower is very strong and can suppress any approaching cavalry troops, and charging directly towards the enemy on horseback will lead to death, the rapid deployment and high-speed support of the cavalry are still irreplaceable on the battlefield.

Especially after the independent regiment's firepower came up.

Although I don't know where the regiment leader got this batch of weapons and ammunition.

but,

Even with 44 Czech guns and 22 rounds of seven-nine-point ammunition, the independent regiment is still the richest in the army.

none of them.

In terms of the number of bullets per capita, the bald direct Central Army, and even the elite troops of the Japs, are not as good as the independent regiments.

Don’t worry about ammunition for machine guns;

In future battles with the Japs, organize a cavalry platoon equipped with ten small machine guns. Use the mobility of the cavalry to penetrate the Japs' flanks or rear at high speed and launch a surprise attack...
When I think of such a scene,

Zhang Dabiao couldn't wait to lead the new second company to fight the Japanese and experience the feeling of firing a machine gun at will.

"What organizes a cavalry platoon?"

Li Yunlong raised his eyebrows:
"Didn't you tell Cheng Shifa that these army horses will be returned to others after they are used up?"

"Say it!"

"According to what you said, it's written down in black and white."

Zhang Dabiao looked at the serious expression on his captain's face and was stunned.

Are you really planning to pay it back?

"Do you really want to pay it back?"

Zhang Dabiao couldn't help but ask.

"Of course I have to pay it back."

Li Yunlong glared, and then said seriously:

"Since you're talking about borrowing, you have to pay it back."

"As a human being, you must be honest. Li Yunlong, the employer and employee, will continue to hang out in this area from now on."

"Also, after this combat mission in Liao County, you go in person and return the horses to the 772nd Regiment. If there are losses, use the horses from the independent regiment to make up for them."

Brother Lu's follow-up supply list includes military horses.

Regardless of the way the weapons are transported, the quality of the weapons and ammunition, and the fact that the ammunition boxes are made of fine walnut wood, it all shows that his brother Lu is a very wealthy and rich man.

The military horses produced must also be high-end goods.

If he doesn't find a reason to send out these rubbish horses in the regiment to make room for them, why will he need Brother Lu's high-level military horses later?
"what?"

Zhang Dabiao was dumbfounded.

Use four imported Czech guns and [-] rounds of ammunition to 'borrow' [-] military horses. Not only are you prepared to return them, but if there is a loss, you also plan to use the independent regiment's own military horses to make up for it.

Is this really the leader of his own group?
He couldn't help but take a closer look at the leader in front of him, his eyes full of suspicion.

It is true that you must have integrity as a human being.

But you have the nerve to say that?

Zhang Dabiao complained in his heart.

"Then, two Czech guns and a deposit of [-] rounds of ammunition, do you want to get it back?"

Zhang Dabiao asked.

Although it was a deposit in name, Zhang Dabiao knew that it would not be that easy to get back goods such as machine gun bullets, which are in short supply once they are in the hands of others.

Even if the independent regiment replaces all the lost horses, Cheng Shifa still has many ways to deny them.

The horseshoes and stirrups are worn, the horse is thin, and a few hairs have fallen out. There are many reasons.

The guns and ammunition are already in the hands of others. Whether they will be given to them or not depends entirely on others.

Even if the trouble comes to the brigade headquarters, even if the independent regiment has reasons, the brigade commander will still favor the 772nd regiment.It's not that the brigade commander prefers to number the main regiment, but that he can't stand his own regiment leader.

Zhang Dabiao knew this very well.

Of course, the leader of his own group also knows.

"Can you guarantee that the twenty borrowed military horses will be returned intact?"

Li Yunlong asked back.

"impossible."

Zhang Dabiao shook his head directly.

The cavalry has high mobility, but the battlefield targets are also large, and it is easy to become a priority target.
The Japs have very strong firepower, including light machine guns, grenade launchers, Type [-] heavy machine guns, a three-layer fire network, the [-]-type cover is interspersed and supplemented, and the Type [-] infantry cannon is expanded, covering a wide area and making it difficult to break through.

The little devil's marksmanship is really good.

Even if it is only used as a troop mobility, when soldiers ride horses to rush to the battlefield, dismount, enter the battlefield, and engage in battle, the cavalry must also enter this coverage area.

Losses are inevitable.

This is also the reason why only the headquarters has a cavalry battalion directly under the headquarters, with a total strength of 500 people and more than 500 horses. The rest of the main regiments can organize a cavalry battalion with less than a hundred horses at most.

Not only is feed consumption high,
Horse equipment is rare;

During the battle, the army and horses suffered huge losses, which was also one of the important reasons.

This time, the independent regiment organized a new second company with 270 people to attack the prisoner-of-war camp in Liao County. Even with the intelligence, losses were inevitable as the cavalry blocked the reinforcements in Liao County.

The loss may even be considerable.

Horses are not tanks and can be injured or even killed by a single bullet.

"That's it."

Li Yunlong continued, his tone as if he was teaching his subordinates:
"Just think of this batch of weapons and ammunition as a favor for me to suffer some losses and sell him to Cheng Shifa."

"After all, we are friendly forces. Let's fight the Japanese together. Don't be so fussy."

"Sell him a favor."

"After all, we are friendly forces, don't worry about it."

"?"

The words were correct, and the reasoning was very reasonable, but coming from the mouth of his own regiment leader... Zhang Dabiao looked at 'Li Yunlong' in front of him again.

"What's that look in your face?" "Have you arrived at the Independent Regiment? Have you forgotten who the leader is?"

"how··"

After being scolded, Zhang Dabiao suddenly became honest and confirmed that it was his captain in front of him. He gradually understood what his captain meant.

From today on, the regiment will be rich and no longer need to worry about weapons and ammunition?

Let him fight freely?
Otherwise, how could it be possible to use 20 rounds of ammunition and 120 machine guns on the front foot, replacing [-] soldiers, and use four Czech guns, [-] rounds of ammunition, and replace [-] army horses on the back foot?

No matter how rich you are, you are not so messed up.

Zhang Dabiao, who wanted to understand, suddenly became happy.

"Yes, Captain."

He saluted Li Yunlong.

"Ha ha··"

Seeing that his capable subordinate seemed to understand something, Li Yunlong also became satisfied:

"How is the construction of the sand table in the prisoner-of-war camp in Liao County, Guizi?"

With information.

It also includes the fortification structure of the prisoner-of-war camp in Liao County and the deployment of Japanese troops.

Li Yunlong asked Zhang Dabiao to first create a simple sandbox simulation battlefield so that the soldiers participating in this operation could become familiar with the terrain and make the best preparations.

In order to increase the winning rate and reduce combat casualties as much as possible.

"I went to see it, and it will take another hour or two to finish."

Zhang Dabiao replied.

"so slow?"

Li Yunlong frowned.

The independent group is so stretched out, how long does it take to sit on the sandbox for so long?

"There is no other way. The prisoner-of-war camp in Liao County is relatively complicated. Not only is there a lack of suitable materials, but there is no talent in the regiment to make sand tables. Commander Kong is doing it himself."

Zhang Dabiao spread his hands.

The sand table sounds simple, but in fact it has to be done well, especially done accurately, which places very high demands on the builder.

"lack of material?"

He couldn't do anything about the talent, but the materials...Li Yunlong was thoughtful.

Moreover, the sandbox is finally a sandbox. You can only look at it. It allows soldiers who lack map reading ability to remember the terrain. Compared with the actual model, the effect is much worse...
Putting away his thoughts, Li Yunlong said:

"Your original second company will be assigned to the first battalion first and handed over to Shen Quan for command."

During the encounter between Yang Cun and Yamamoto's special forces, the Second Battalion suffered heavy losses. After Li Yunlong arrived, he compressed the Second Battalion into a company.

He continued:
"The 150 combat backbones selected from the independent regiment and the 120 soldiers I recruited from the new regiment will be formed into the new second battalion. You will be the battalion commander."

"You need to integrate the establishment as soon as possible."

"Yes."

Zhang Dabiao saluted and stood at attention.

When he set out for the 772nd Regiment, he knew that the mission this time was to attack the Liao County prisoner of war camp.

···
"What, your group got [-] rounds of imported [-]-point bullets and four imported Czech-type bullets?"

"Where is it?"

"How did you get it?"

"Is it Cheng Shifa who did it? You don't know?"

"Let Cheng Shifa answer the phone!"

"Going to the First Battalion? Can't come back until tomorrow? Okay."

Brigade.

Putting down the phone in their hands, the brigade chief of staff and brigade commander stared at each other.

On the front foot, Ding Wei, the leader of the new regiment, handed over 15 rounds of imported [-]-point bullets without using any weapons funds.

On the back foot, Cheng Shifa of the 772nd Regiment obtained [-] rounds of imported [-]-point bullets, as well as four imported Czech-type ammunition, without a single cent of weapons funding.

Although it is a good thing.

With the actual break with Guozhou and the beginning of restrictions and blockades, as well as the Japanese blockade, it became more and more difficult for the troops not only to finance, but also to obtain weapons and ammunition.

It is also becoming increasingly difficult to purchase scattered firearms and ammunition from the market.

It is a great thing that someone can get weapons and ammunition in huge quantities without consuming precious funds.

17 rounds of ammunition are enough for the entire brigade to fight a tough battle.

but··

This thing always feels wrong.

The two regiment leaders who obtained weapons and ammunition only stated the quantity of weapons and ammunition they obtained, but did not explain the source of the weapons and ammunition.

It gives people the feeling that they are deliberately hiding something.

"Li Yunlong didn't cause any trouble."

"What the hell are these two guys doing?"

The brigade commander couldn't help but curse.

As long as the current situation is conducive to the war of resistance, there is no need to get to the bottom of everything.

But this matter, the two regiment leaders are definitely playing a riddle. If he hadn't gone to the headquarters tomorrow, he would have gone to the New Regiment or the 772nd Regiment now to see what was going on.

"It's not a bad thing anyway."

said the brigade chief of staff.

"Too."

The brigade commander nodded:

"Don't go there yet. After I come back from the headquarters, I'll go and see for myself. What on earth are these two guys up to!"

"it is good."

The brigade chief of staff nodded.
