Li Yunlong had made a great contribution. Taking advantage of the opportunity to eat with the Bureau Chief, Li Yunlong raised his request to the Bureau Chief.
He hoped that the Bureau Chief could send some more experienced combat backbones over so that their new regiment could develop faster.
Because Li Yunlong had made a great contribution, be it the deputy commander-in-chief or the commander, they now looked at Li Yunlong like a mother-in-law looking at a son-in-law. The more they looked at him, the more pleasing he was to the eye.
Therefore, the three chiefs naturally agreed to Li Yun Long's request.
Moreover, the three chiefs did not give empty promises this time. In just a few days, the three of them had sent dozens of people to Li Yunlong.
Altogether, there were more than a hundred people. These hundred people did not seem like a lot.
However, they were all experienced combat backbones. These people could at least hold the position of deputy platoon leader, and some of them were platoon leaders and company commanders.
With these combat backbones, the development of the army was naturally just around the corner.
Li Yun Long was naturally very happy. He struck while the iron was hot and took the opportunity to quickly recruit and expand his forces.
Because Li Yun Long had made a great contribution this time, the headquarters had also publicized this victory on a large scale, making Li Yun Long famous.
The name of the New Regiment shook Jin Province and even quickly spread throughout the entire North China region, greatly boosting the morale of the war.
Using this opportunity, Li Yun Long's recruitment process was much smoother. Many ambitious youths in the nearby area took the initiative to join the new regiment.
Therefore, the new regiment's military strength was also constantly expanding. However, the new recruits needed a period of training before they could have combat strength.
……
Taiyuan, the headquarters of the Japanese's First Army.
Lieutenant General Shinozuka Yoshio, the commander of the First Army, slammed a newspaper on the table.
"Baga Yalu, this is outrageous.”
"Has Yong Fu arrived yet?"
The Japanese adjutant beside him quickly replied,"Commander, the commander of the Pinglu Brigade has arrived and is waiting outside.”
Shinozuka Yoshio said angrily,"Let him in?"
"Ha Yi ~!"
" Yes," the adjutant replied respectfully and turned to leave.
After a while, an old man wearing the rank of major general walked in.
This old man was the commander of the Major General Brigade of the 4th Independent Mixed Brigade of the Japanese, Isamu Hiraku. The Sakata United Team was one of the two regiments under him. The other regiment was the Kasahara United Team, and the regiment commander was Daisuke Kasahara Koizumi.
" Commander!"
Shinozuka Yoshio looked up at Hiraku Yukio and said,"Pinglu Jun, I hope you can give me a reasonable explanation.”
Hiraku Yukio lowered his head in shame and said,""Your Excellency Commander, I have no explanation. There is no excuse for losing the battle.”
"If I had to say the reason, it would be my negligence. I didn't expect these Tubo soldiers to be so bold as to attack the giant town. As a result, the imperial army's warehouse was looted by the enemy, causing great losses to the imperial army.”
"This humble servant is negligent and willing to bear any punishment.”
Shinozuka Yoshio was slightly stunned when he heard this. He did not expect Hiraku Yukio to say such a thing.
He thought that Hiraku Yukio would have to find some excuse, but he did not expect him to confess.
Shinozuka Yoshio had wanted to reprimand him to vent some of the anger in his heart, but he couldn't say anything now.
"Humph!"
Shinozuka Yoshio coldly snorted and said,"The First Army's reputation has been ruined by you.”
"During this period of time, you've suffered repeated losses, causing the imperial army to suffer heavy casualties.”
"Ha Yi!"
"I deserve to die for my crimes. Please calm down, Commander."”
" The Eighth Route newspaper said that they seized a large number of weapons and equipment, including tens of thousands of rifles and machine guns!" Shinozuka Yoshio frowned and asked. What's going on?"
" That's absolutely impossible," Hiraku said." The headquarters should have a list of how many weapons and equipment there are in the warehouse of the giant city. Even if there are some differences, it's impossible for the difference to be so big."”
"We only lost over a thousand rifles, dozens of light and heavy machine guns, two infantry cannons, and a batch of mortars.”
"It's absolutely impossible for there to be such a huge number of people as the Eight Route propaganda.”
Shinozuka Yoshio nodded slightly and said,"I naturally know this. However, why is Tu Ba Dao advertising so much this time?”
"What they said seemed to be true, which surprised me.”
" These Tubas have always liked to exaggerate their propaganda," said Hiraku Yukio." It's just that this time, they're exaggerating too much. It's not surprising."”
"I think they are deliberately making false propaganda to confuse those ignorant people. That's all.”
"Ouch!"
Shinozuka Yoshio nodded slightly and said,"What you said makes sense. However, the higher-ups already know about this matter and are extremely angry.”
"The North China Command has requested that we destroy this army as soon as possible to save the face of the Imperial Army.”
"This humble servant is bold enough to ask the Commander to give this humble servant a chance to redeem myself." Hiraku Yukio quickly said.”
"The Sakata United Team and the Kasahara United Team under my 4th independent mixed regiment are already fully equipped and ready for battle.”
"I plan to launch a large-scale operation to wipe out the enemy forces in the Heshun area and completely destroy the Eighth Route Army in this area to save the Imperial Army's face.”
"Ouch!"
Shinozuka Yoshio nodded slightly and said,"This is more like a real warrior of the imperial army. I also believe that Lord Pinglu has the ability to complete this mission.”
" Thank you for your trust, Commander," Hiraku said respectfully." I will definitely not disappoint you."”
" We have received some relevant information from the headquarters," said Shinozuka Yoshio." I believe that this information will be of great help to Mr. Hiraku's next operation."”
Hiraku Yukio immediately perked up and quickly asked,""May I ask what information you have, Commander?”
Please urge me to change it.
