Huang Village.
Dusk.
Smoke rose.
Regiment headquarters, Li Yunlong's room.
Li Yunlong was fast asleep. He had just returned to the regimental headquarters from Wanjia Town. Li Yunlong had slept for less than two hours. Although he was full of energy, he had enough rest to recover his body.
Li Yunlong felt tired, so he naturally had to sleep.
Just now, when Li Yunlong returned to the regimental headquarters, he also ate two cans of beef.
Although the canned beef was made from beef and blood of miscellaneous grains and could not be considered real meat, it was a rare delicacy for New One Ball.
The cook took out two cans of beef and stir-fried some potatoes and vegetables. Li Yunlong directly used this to mix three bowls of rice. After a full meal, he fell asleep.
Although there were many cans of beef in the wagons, the New Regiment now had more than 5500 people, including the 2000 captives. Each person had one can of beef per meal, which meant that they would consume three cans a day. That was 16500 cans.
Apart from that, the district, county, brigade, township government, and village leaders as well as the militia could receive one every day. This massive amount of resources would not last long.
"Ding, ding, ding!"
Suddenly, his phone rang.
Li Yunlong quickly sat up. Before he could wake up, he crawled over to take the phone.
"Li Yunlong, you're good!”
The brigade commander's voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Brigadier! Not at all, Brigadier General. I'm living a miserable life. I don't even have a set of military uniform for each of my men. The Munitions Factory only gives me two boxes of grenades every month. Last month, I was still short of one box!”
Li Yunlong was shocked when he heard that it was the brigade commander. He quickly reacted and replied.
"Motherf * cker, you're still the same dog. You're so full that you still say you haven't eaten!”
"Come on, I'll be frank with you. You annihilated the Eighth Mixed Association of the Imperial Association Army this time, so you have to hand over some of the weapons to me!”
"My New Second Regiment doesn't have a single weapon right now. We're just waiting for your batch of weapons to start cooking!”
The brigade commander's first sentence sounded like an order, and his second sentence sounded like a joke.
"What? Brigadier General, I admit that my new regiment has defeated the Eighth Mixed Army of the Imperial Association, but my new regiment has suffered a great loss. Now, the Japanese have stationed a regiment in each of Li County and Ping An County. I reckon that they will soon carry out a counter-sweep of my new regiment's defense area!”
Li Yunlong exaggerated his losses and said to the brigade commander.
"Brigadier General, I beg you, I will kneel before you!”
Li Yunlong said it as if it was true.
"Get lost, I don't want to listen to you. Ever since the battle at the Gray Cloud Ridge, I've felt that there's something wrong with you, but I just didn't say it out loud!”
"You're just a regiment, yet you've eaten the weapons of the Mixed Association. Don't think that I don't know how many troops you have to equip. This time, you've wiped out three infantry squadrons of Li County, and more than half of the three infantry squadrons of Pingan County that came out of the city as reinforcements.”
"Brat, are you going to hand it over or not? If you don't hand it over, then move your nest. The toilets in the brigade headquarters, division headquarters, and headquarters are all lacking cleaners.”
The brigade commander was a little angry. Li Yunlong was famous for being stingy. Not only in the brigade, but even many people in the headquarters knew about Li Yunlong's personality.
When the factory manager heard Li Yunlong's name, he was very afraid. Every time he mentioned Li Yunlong to the factory manager, the factory manager was not in the mood to eat.
"Brigade Commander, you can't do this!"
When Li Yunlong heard this, he was especially afraid. Li Yunlong had done almost everything like being a scapegoat and being a groom, but this was his first time being asked to be a cleaner.
Whether it was the division headquarters or the brigade headquarters, he knew many people. If he let them enter the toilet and watch him clean, he would lose a lot of face.
There were many subordinates in the division and brigade headquarters, and their positions were all higher than his. These people were all brought here by Li Yunlong. Now that they saw him as a cleaner, Li Yunlong blushed when he thought about it.
"Hmph, you brat, I heard that your new guild is extremely rich and has excellent equipment. Old Cheng has long wanted to go!”
the brigade commander said.
"Damn it, Blind Cheng is such a fool. When I was the leader of the grassland, he was still…"
Li Yunlong was about to finish when the brigade commander stopped him.
"You brat, shut your dog mouth. I will send someone to receive the weapons.”
The brigade commander hung up the phone.
Li Yunlong was left standing in the same spot with a dumbfounded expression.
"Blind Cheng, that bastard!"
Li Yunlong smashed a bowl beside him.
Blind Cheng was the regiment commander of Regiment 772. He was one of the two regiments under the brigade.
In the original novel, Blind Cheng was the one who launched countless charges against the Yamazaki Brigade (the Japanese army that had infiltrated the hinterland of our army and attacked the arsenal), but did not receive any results.
Li Yunlong was very angry. This was the equipment of half a brigade, which was equivalent to the equipment of a regiment. There were 2000 3.8 rifles alone.
Every rifle was Li Yunlong's heart, and each rifle could arm a soldier. According to Li Yunlong's ability, even a woman could fight the Japanese army when she was upgraded to a level 1 soldier.
After worrying for a while, Li Yunlong sighed.
The brigade commander's words carried weight. The words he said now were like water that had been poured out. It was already impossible to take back the water that had been spilled.
Li Yunlong called Zhang Dabiao in and arranged some firearms with him. Zhang Dabiao received Li Yunlong's order and took out 2000 38th covers from the warehouse, as well as a regiment of the Imperial Association Army's machine guns and other weapons.
After the weapons were taken out, Li Yunlong went to the yard and rubbed a 3.8 rifle with his hand. He was not feeling good.
"Dabiao, have you settled those puppet troops?”
Li Yunlong's words were not as forceful as usual.
"Regiment Commander, everything has been arranged. They are staying in the homes of the villagers in the surrounding villages. They don't have any weapons, and we have people watching over them.”
Zhang Dabiao said to Li Yunlong.
"Alright, let them gather outside Huang Village tomorrow. I, Li Yunlong, will give them a lecture. For now, don't cut off their food. Give them whatever we eat. Don't let them have any rebellious thoughts.”
Li Yunlong said in a serious tone. Zhang Dabiao understood what was going on and nodded.
Under Li Yunlong's orders, the warehouse of the regiment headquarters was opened and 50,000 sets of military coats were distributed. Each new regiment soldier (including the puppet prisoners and the small teams in the county brigade area) had three sets.
This military coat was an enhanced version of the Japanese military officer's cotton coat. Its quality and warmth were better, and it was more eye-catching. The cost was many times higher than ordinary cotton coats. When worn, one would instantly feel warm. It also had the effect of blocking the wind and had no effect on combat.
The three sets of military coats were just enough for the new regiment of soldiers to change into. The new regiment would not have to worry about the winter.
The New Regiment had used up nearly 20,000 sets of military coats. The remaining military coats were given to the leaders of the township government and the villages, as well as the militia. Even some poor families and immigrants from Wan Jia Town had received military coats. This made them feel the warmth of the New Regiment, and they were even more loyal to the New Regiment.
