More than 400 soldiers from the First Battalion and the Guard Platoon moved twice before moving the mountains of weapons and ammunition back to Zhengjia Village.
With the strength of the soldiers, it would be no problem to move 70 to 80 kilograms in one trip, but it was snowing heavily and the roads were frozen, so each person could only carry 50 kilograms per trip.
Every soldier's face was filled with uncontrollable joy. The new regiment was now considered rich!
Li Yunlong asked the cooking team to fry some hard vegetables and entertained Chen Feng warmly.
After a meal of food and drink, Chen Feng took his leave. Before leaving, Chen Feng and Li Yunlong agreed on the next business deal - to kill the Kwantung Army's transport team.
According to intelligence, three days later in the morning the Kwantung Army was transporting mustard gas bombs and passed through Chenjiagou.
Strength of two squadrons.
What the new regiment has to do is to kill this Kwantung Army transport team and blow up these mustard gas bombs.
The deposit is 3,000 sets of cotton-padded clothes, and there will be a reward of 40,000 sets of cotton-padded clothes after the deal is completed.
As soon as Li Yunlong heard this, he agreed on the spot without haggling.
The Eighth Route Army was in trouble as soon as winter came. The internal government refused to issue military uniforms and supplies, and the external base areas were blocked by Japanese iron walls.
From time to time, the Japanese would carry out raids on you. The soldiers, wearing single clothes in the weather that was more than ten degrees below zero, could only hold up their swords and bayonets to engage in hand-to-hand combat with the Japanese.
If there are 40,000 sets of cotton-padded clothes, then all the main troops in the Taihang Base Area will be able to wear cotton-padded clothes this year.
Even though this winter is almost over, what about next year and the year after that?
After all, this is a protracted battle.
So the two agreed to deliver the deposit and 20 tons of weapons and ammunition one day later.
In the inner room of the regiment headquarters, Zhang Dabiao looked at the information in his hand and said in a deep voice: "Commander, the Kwantung Army is not easy to mess with. We have to make a long-term plan!"
"Why are you so fucking easy to mess with? I don't believe in this evil!" Li Yunlong said, "Didn't you say that in the Battle of Marco Polo Bridge, you killed nine Kwantung Army soldiers?"
"What, are you scared?"
"Commander, you have wronged me!" Zhang Dabiao said, "Although I killed 9 Kwantung Army soldiers in that battle, I have to say that the Kwantung Army was indeed very skillful with bayonets!"
Li Yunlong took a sip of wine: "With our current firepower, are we still afraid of the fucking Kwantung Army?"
"That's true!" Zhang Dabiao smiled and said.
Taking out the map, Li Yunlong found the location of Zhengjiacun and Chenjiagou on the map.
Then he clicked on Zhengjiacun on the map with his finger, followed his finger to draw an intersecting curve on the map, and finally stopped at Chenjiagou.
Chenjiagou is located on the side of Zhengtai Highway. Li Yunlong made a visual inspection and found that it is about 60 kilometers away from Zhengjiacun.
At that moment, Li Yunlong asked the communications corps to notify the other two battalion commanders of the new regiment to attend a meeting at the regiment headquarters.
The second battalion commander's name is Zheng Yu. Although he looks gentle and fair, after taking off his clothes, he is covered in sinews and has extremely tricky and ruthless stabbing skills.
The commander of the third battalion is called Chen Dugu. Like Zhang Dabiao, he is a sturdy man who is good at using two spears, both rough and fine.
Of course, being able to serve as a battalion commander under Li Yunlong not only knows a unique skill, but also leads troops to fight.
The Second Battalion and the Third Battalion were stationed in two villages not far from Zhengjia Village. Less than half an hour after receiving the order, Zheng Yu and Chen Dagu happened to meet at the door.
So they walked inside together.
"Report!"
"Report!"
The two battalion commanders shouted at the same time.
Li Yunlong shouted outside: "Come in!"
Zheng Yu and Chen Dugu joined the regiment headquarters.
Chen Dugu chuckled and asked: "Commander, those 20 tons of ammunition...are they in place?"
Li Yunlong was suddenly startled and asked, "You have a pretty good nose. How did you know that?"
Even the third battalion commander knew about it, would it reach the ears of the brigade commander?
How many people know about this?
Li Yunlong glanced at Zhang Dabiao, and Zhang Dabiao quickly shook his head, saying that he did not leak it.
If Kong Jie had made a fortune, he would have reported it to the brigade headquarters as soon as possible: Brigadier, I will hand it over and seize it!
But when Li Yunlong got rich, his first reaction was: Get things together quickly, don't let the brigade commander know!
"You are carrying weapons and passing by the village where our third battalion is stationed." Chen Dugu said, "How can I not know about such a big movement?"
Li Yunlong breathed a sigh of relief and ordered: "This matter has made all the soldiers sick to my stomach. No one is allowed to go out to show off. Our new regiment will make a fortune in silence this time!"
"Don't worry, Captain!"
"It will never be leaked!"
"..."
The three battalion commanders expressed their opinions one after another.
Second Battalion Commander Zheng Yu asked: "Commander, what good things are there in the 20 tons of weapons and ammunition this time?"
"What good stuff?" Li Yunlong stared, "I'll scare you if I tell you!"
Zheng Yu and Chen Dagu quickly raised their ears. Zhang Dabiao stood aside and said nothing, but the corners of his mouth were slightly raised.
Li Yunlong did not hide the secrets from his battalion commanders, and made a sign with his right hand: "8 Maxims, 3,000 German-made grenades, 6 American 60mm mortars, 2,400 mortar shells, 7.92
100,000 rounds of mm bullets, 100,000 rounds of 9mm bullets, 100 mines, and 100 Italian artillery shells!”
When Zheng Yu and Chen Dugu heard this, their expressions were full of excitement, and they were full of damn firepower!
What does the Eighth Route Army lack most?
Weapons and ammunition, of course, can overcome the lack of food and clothing.
But the equipment is poor and the ammunition is scarce, which is really life-threatening.
Take this battle at Cangyunling as an example, if there were not those 100 submachine guns and the Italian cannon, what would have happened?
Even if Sakata can be killed, the new group may not know how much it will suffer.
Zheng Yu then said: "Captain, the previous 100 submachine guns were all equipped with the first battalion. Now it is the turn of the second battalion, right? The commander asked me to allocate all 8 Maxims to our second battalion. Wait until next time.
It won’t be too late to allocate business to the Third Battalion.”
Chen Dagu wanted to refute, but Li Yunlong took the lead and scolded: "You are a monkey, right? Are you more impatient than me?"
"Don't worry, everyone has a share. As long as we hold on to Brother Chen Feng's thigh, will our new group worry about having enough money to fight in the future?"
"To tell you the truth, 20 tons of weapons and ammunition will be put into storage tomorrow!"
"What? There are 20 tons more?" Chen Dugu and Zheng Yu opened their eyes wide.
Zheng Yu stopped talking now. It was a full 40 tons. Even if the regiment commander was biased, he couldn't give it all to the first battalion. The second and third battalions could also get a lot.
After a pause, Li Yunlong said again: "I have already negotiated a new deal with Chen Feng. In the morning three days later, a group of Kwantung Army transporting poison gas bombs will pass through the Chenjiagou section of the Zhengtai Highway. There will be two squadrons of troops. Our mission is
It’s to kill these devils and blow up the gas bombs!”
Chen Dugu then asked: "Captain, how many weapons and ammunition are there in total for the deposit and remuneration this time?"
Li Yunlong said: "This time it's not weapons and ammunition."
Zheng Yu asked: "If it's not weapons and ammunition, what is it?"
Li Yunlong said: "Deposit plus remuneration, a total of 43,000 sets of cotton-padded jackets, just like the big cotton-padded jackets worn by the Japanese Kwantung Army, but the colors are different."
"So many sets of cotton-padded clothes?" Zheng Yu and Chen Dugu couldn't help but shrink slightly.
"It's done!" Chen Dugu said with excitement, "If we do this, our main force in the Taihang base area will not have to worry about winter this year and next year!"
