The only person who could be louder than Li Yunlong and could enter the new regiment headquarters easily was the 386th Brigade Commander Chen Geng.
A familiar voice sounded. Li Yunlong immediately put on a fawning smile and walked cheerfully to the entrance of the courtyard. At the same time, a middle-aged handsome man wearing glasses and a leather jacket walked in.
Li Yunlong immediately stepped forward and saluted, saying,""Brigade Commander, why didn't you tell me that you were coming? I could have prepared myself and treated you well.”
Looking at Li Yunlong's smiling face, Chen Geng used his horsewhip to send Li Yunlong away. He smiled and walked to Ye Ming. He sized up Ye Ming, the legendary extraordinary existence, before extending his right hand and saying,
"I am the brigade commander of the 386th Brigade, Chen Geng. I welcome Mr. Ye Ming for helping the new regiment and providing great help to the Eighth Route Army. On behalf of the Eighth Route Army Headquarters, I welcome Mr. Ye Ming to join the Eighth Route Army and fight the devils together.”
Facing the famous Chen Geng, Ye Ming also extended his right hand very politely. The two of them shook hands gently and said,""I've long heard of your great name, Brigadier General. It's my honor to be able to join your army.”
When Chen Geng heard Ye Ming's obvious intention to stay in the 386th Brigade, his smile became even brighter. He turned around and gave Li Yunlong a look that said," You did well."
When he continued to face Ye Ming, Chen's smile became even brighter. He said,""I'm here to reward the new regiment on behalf of the headquarters for their great victory in the Gray Cloud Ridge. At the same time, I'm here to bring Mr. Ye to the headquarters. Vice President Peng is waiting for Mr. Ye at the headquarters and also to make the final arrangements for Mr. Ye's future.”
Ye Ming didn't expect the Eighth Route Army headquarters to be so anxious. He said awkwardly,""Brigadier General, look at the supplies that I sent over by air. It's not good to leave immediately if we want to go to the headquarters. It just so happens that most of these supplies are going to be handed over to the Eighth Route Army headquarters for distribution. Why don't we organize them tomorrow and get the new regiment to escort these supplies to the headquarters?”
Ye Ming paused for a moment before continuing,"" And as you can see, Brigadier General, there are quite a lot of supplies. Other than the supplies for the new regiment, there are actually too many things. It's difficult for the new regiment to transport them all at once. Why don't you transfer some of the supply troops over to help?”
Hearing this, Chen Geng naturally couldn't refuse. He smiled and said,""No problem at all. I'll immediately get someone to transfer the supply troops over overnight.”
As soon as Chen Geng finished speaking, he turned to Li Yunlong behind him and said,""Today, I want to have a celebratory feast here. At the same time, it can also be considered a welcoming banquet for our 386th Brigade to welcome Mr. Ye. You, Li Yunlong, are the dignified regiment commander.”
When Li Yunlong heard this, he thought to himself that it was simple. The new regiment still had some money. They could buy some pigs and sheep from their hometown and get some wine. They would be done.
However, before Li Yunlong could agree, Ye Ming said,""Brigadier general, a celebration party is necessary. The new regiment's soldiers fought valiantly in the Gray Cloud Ridge. Plus, they won quite a few battles, so it's appropriate to celebrate.
It just so happened that there were quite a few live birds and wine among the supplies that were being transported by air this time. It just so happened that the entire regiment and the people of Xujia 'ao could have a good time together.”
At this point, Ye Ming added,""These live birds are originally meant to replenish the nutrients of the soldiers. Tomorrow, the new group will keep some and send the rest to the headquarters.”
When Chen Geng heard this, he thought about it and did not reject it. After all, a main force of more than 2,000 people would consume a lot of resources. In this day and age, resources were scarce. Even if you had money, you could not buy anything.
Most importantly, this batch of supplies was originally Ye Ming's support for the Eighth Route Army. Naturally, they had to listen to Ye Ming's opinion on how to distribute this batch of supplies.
Chen Geng did not say anything, so Li Yunlong naturally saved a sum of money. Soon, the entire regiment and the people of Xujia 'ao received the news and cheered.
Ye Ming and Li Yun Long followed Chen Geng and counted most of the supplies. 1,500 tons of supplies was a lot.
The most valuable items were not weapons and ammunition, but large amounts of medicine.
This time, the airdropped medicine was as much as 50 tons, especially anti-inflammatory medicine and trauma medicine. These two medicines were also the most urgently needed by the Eighth Route Army field hospital.
There was also a large amount of anesthetics, medical alcohol, and bandages. The amount was enough to distribute to every field hospital of the Eighth Route Army, which made Chen Geng say words of gratitude from time to time.
With these medicines, the injured soldiers would be able to receive sufficient treatment. In the following period of time, the injured soldiers would not die because of a lack of medicines.
At the same time, a large number of soldiers and civilians began to prepare for dinner.
The poultry that had been dropped from the air were slaughtered and washed before being placed into the pot. Large pieces of pork were placed into the pot one after another, and the charcoal added up to the whole lamb that had been killed on the spot.
Under Ye Ming's leadership, a sumptuous dinner was being prepared.
At the same time, a large number of soldiers took turns to wash their bodies and change into the 07-style uniform that Ye Ming had arranged for them.
This time, Ye Ming made the decision to leave 3,000 sets of Type 07 uniforms and thousands of individual equipment for the new regiment. Every soldier queued up to receive their new equipment.
The remaining 2,000 sets were handed over to Chen Geng by Ye Ming, and Chen Geng could do whatever he wanted with them.
In Ye Ming's words, if the headquarters allowed it, he would also stay in the new regiment in the future. It was best to use the best weapons and equipment. The combat power of the new regiment was unquestionable. It would be beneficial to deal with the Japanese in the future if it was forged into a sharp knife.
Chen Geng naturally did not have any objections. After all, staying in the new regiment was equivalent to staying in the 386th regiment. As the brigade commander, he naturally could not refuse.
As for the remaining 2,000 sets of individual soldier suits and uniforms, Chen Geng decided to send them all to the headquarters for them to handle.
The weapons and equipment that were dropped this time were given priority to the new regiment. The rest would be sent to the headquarters.
Li Yunlong didn't interrupt when they were distributing the supplies to the new regiment. Ye Ming didn't disappoint Li Yunlong at all. After getting a clear distribution, Li Yunlong smiled so hard that his mouth was crooked.
That evening, the grand celebration banquet began. Everyone was extremely excited and even sang and danced. The atmosphere was unprecedentedly warm.
