Chapter 62 Prepare for action!
During this period, under the care of the brigade and even the headquarters, a lot of new soldiers were added to the new regiment.
Of course, this was something Li Yunlong fought for himself.
Therefore, through the replenishment during this period, the total strength of the new regiment reached more than 2,000 men.
It can be said to be a great increase in strength.
And this new batch of recruits are not all new recruits.
Some of them are recruited from the local troops below. These people have some combat experience. Of course, compared with the main force, there is still a big gap.
The other part are pure recruits.
In order to improve the combat effectiveness of the troops as quickly as possible, Li Yunlong personally formulated a detailed training plan, striving to train these troops into an elite force as soon as possible.
Everything went very smoothly.
However, the only thing that has given Li Yunlong a headache these days is the Heishenshan Coal Mine.
It is indeed not easy to capture this coal mine.
The reconnaissance platoon was out searching for intelligence, and Li Yunlong was not idle either. He began to select the most elite troops from the entire regiment and fill them into the guard company.
According to Li Yunlong's plan, the security company will be the main force in this operation.
Now the guard company has more than a hundred people, and they are all carefully selected elites and some special soldiers.
Moreover, Li Yunlong also equipped them with the best weapons and more ammunition than other combat units to ensure the combat effectiveness of this unit.
Li Yunlong also took the time to go to Black God Mountain to explore the terrain on the spot.
Combining the information obtained, Li Yunlong already had a rough battle plan in his mind.
After some deduction and planning, Li Yunlong finally decided to take action.
The night before departure, Li Yunlong called Zhao Gang into his room.
During this time, the two of them got along very happily.
Now Li Yunlong is going to lead his troops to attack the Black God Mountain, and he must not be able to hide this from Zhao Gang.
So Li Yunlong didn't intend to hide it from him, so he simply told him directly and asked him to stay and look after the house.
Sidie's simple side dishes were placed on the table, and Li Yunlong poured a bowl of wine for Zhao Gang with a smile on his face.
In the past few days, thanks to Li Yunlong's unremitting efforts, Political Commissar Zhao, who claimed not to drink, was finally dragged into the water.
Zhao Gang frowned and said, "Commander Li, how do I feel that you are a weasel paying New Year greetings to a rooster today, and you have no good intentions?"
Li Yunlong smiled and said: "Look what you said, you are the political commissar and I am the regimental leader."
"We are a real family. I can't cheat anyone but you!"
Zhao Gang sneered and said, "Come on! I've heard for a long time that you have a lot of tricks up your sleeves. I'm really afraid of being fooled by you."
"That's it~! You tell me what it is first, and after we finish talking, it's not too late to drink again."
Li Yunlong smiled and said: "Okay, let's just say it is right first."
"You ask me what's going on? Of course it's a good thing to make a fortune!"
"Get rich?"
Zhao Gang couldn't help but his eyes lit up, and he quickly asked: "What do you mean by getting rich?"
"Hehe~!"
Li Yunlong chuckled and said: "Our new group has now expanded to more than 2,000 people."
"We have strong troops and strong horses, but one thing is that we are short of guns, ammunition, food, clothing, clothing, and daily necessities. In short, we are short of everything."
"We can't just rely on our superiors to allocate these things. The small amount of materials allocated by our superiors will never be enough."
"So we have to find a solution for this gap ourselves."
Zhao Gang is also a smart man. Hearing this, he probably understood what Li Yunlong meant.
"You mean, find a way to get it from the enemy?"
"right!"
Li Yunlong nodded and said: "If we don't have guns or cannons, the enemy will make them for us. If we don't have food or clothing, the enemies will come to our door."
"Now that the enemy won't give it to us, we have to go and get it in person."
Zhao Gang frowned and said, "But this unauthorized mobilization of troops is no joke. What if the superiors blame it?"
Li Yunlong smiled and said: "If you don't report me, how will your superiors know?"
"But……"
Zhao Gang also looked embarrassed.
Li Yunlong smiled and said: "I said Lao Zhao! You are just a nerd."
"What we learn in this school is naturally correct, but there are still some gaps between theory and practice."
Li Yunlong took a puff of cigarette, paused slightly, and then said: "When I first accepted the new regiment, the army lacked training and practical experience."
"The most important thing is the lack of weapons and equipment. There are less than ten light machine guns in the whole regiment, and more than half of them are old-fashioned things. It is still unclear whether they can be used on the battlefield."
"There is not a single heavy machine gun. The rifleman's old sleeve is made in Hanyang, and the rifling is smoothed. Just like this, two or three people have to share one gun."
"That's it, I'll go to the brigade commander and ask for it."
"What do you think the brigade commander said? The brigade commander said: I don't need a gun, but I need a life. See how many guns my head is worth, so you chop it off and exchange it for a gun."
Zhao Gang asked with a surprised look on his face: "What should you do?" In Zhao Gang's opinion, the brigade commander was also a very reasonable person, how could he say such unreasonable things.
It seems that this grand brigade commander is also a dishonest person. In front of intellectuals like Zhao Gang and others, he is a reasonable and reasonable Confucian general of the generation.
But in front of Li Yunlong and other arrogant generals, he has a different look. Otherwise, how could he possibly be able to intimidate these arrogant generals?
Li Yunlong then said: "What can I do? I can only tell the brigade commander."
"Brigade commander! After all, I am also the commander of a regular army. I can't be inferior to the county brigade, right? Isn't this a sign of damage to our division?"
"What do you think the brigade commander said? The brigade commander said: I have equipment. What do I want you to do? Since you can be the commander of this regiment, you have the ability to make guns. Otherwise, you can go home and pick up the child for me. Don't give it here.
I am embarrassed."
"Come on~! This is what I was waiting for. If you want me to get a gun, no problem!"
"But you can't put a tight spell on me, right? You have to give me some autonomy, right? You can't let your brigade commander take over everything! You want me to have a gun, and you want me to be a good boy. You're being unreasonable.
."
Zhao Gang couldn't help laughing when he heard this.
Asked: "What did the brigade commander say?"
Li Yunlong continued: "The brigade commander said: Go ahead and figure it out for yourself. I don't ask anything, I don't care about anything. I'm warning you, Li Yunlong, don't bother me with these bullshit things."
"That's it, in less than a year, our new regiment has everything, crooked guns, Type 92, grenades, and mortars."
"The guy in my hand is good, and my waist is strong. If I didn't have this little wealth, would I dare to go head-to-head with Sakata? Just dream!"
