Chapter 210: Divide the spoils, Li Yunlong is demoted

In the Battle of Tainan, although all units of the Eighth Route Army participating in the battle suffered casualties, especially the First Regiment of the Independent Detachment, the New Second Regiment of the 386 Brigade, and the Central Hebei Guard Brigade, they all captured a lot of money.

Before the war, Zhou Weihan's independent detachment seized the weapons and equipment of the 281st Regiment of the 97th Army, an entire regiment.

Among them, the remnants of the newly formed 24th Division, which was surrounded by the Jizhong Security Brigade and Ding Wei's 28th Regiment, surrendered unconditionally and returned to the south bank of the Zhang River empty-handed.

On this day, the commanders of the Eighth Route Army regiments on the front line gathered together. The Jizhong Garrison Brigade had returned to the Jizhong Military Region, and the brigade commander led the 386th Brigade directly back to the Taiyue Military Region.

In the conference room, everyone was staring at Zhou Weihan. Without him, it was time to carve up the munitions warehouse of the 97th Army.

Zhou Weihan coughed lightly and joked: "Why are you guys looking at me like that? I'm not a big girl!"

Everyone present was acquaintances, no one was outside.

"Haha, Lao Zhou, although you are not a yellow flower girl, you are now more attractive than a yellow flower girl. Quickly tell me how to divide the munitions warehouse of the 97th Army?" Kong Jie said.

"That's right, are you all waiting? Before I came, the brigade commander specifically ordered me to take his share back!" said Qian Youyi, the commander of the 18th Regiment on the side.

"Look at how anxious you all are. The Ninety-Seventh Army was defeated even after a day of holding on. It lost a lot of baggage. It stands to reason that except for Li Yunlong's new regiment, which was a sharp knife regiment, and captured slightly less, which of your other regiments didn't?

My mouth is full of oil after eating!"

As soon as Zhou Weihan finished speaking, Ding Wei was not happy at first: "The situation of our 28th regiment is different. The Jizhong Security Brigade is anxious to return to Jizhong. The headquarters directly ordered our 28th Regiment to hand over the weapons and equipment seized on the battlefield to the Jizhong Security Brigade.

Now, although our 28th Regiment has been divided into the 129th Division, we cannot let our efforts go in vain. You must know that most of the wealth of our 28th Regiment has been left in Jizhong, so our regiment cannot be allowed to start from scratch again!"

"I'm going to tell you the numbers. Can you tell me, 600 rifles, 12 light machine guns, 6 heavy machine guns, 40 boxes of grenades and 50,000 rounds of bullets of various types.

I don’t want much, everyone. This is at most the equipment of half a regiment of the Central Army!” Ding Wei looked at everyone present and said.

"You old man, your abacus is very good. You don't have many weapons and equipment, but you really dare to use bullets. You need 50,000 rounds in one breath!" Li Yunlong has been imprisoned for the past few days, and his temper has been tempered a lot.

, who had been silent until now, suddenly said.

"Even if you say that, our independent group can't afford less!" Kong Jie said from the side.

"Okay, shut the hell up!" Zhou Weihan was so disturbed by their quarrels that he slapped the table and said.

"Although the headquarters asked me to divide the spoils, the telegram also pointed out that in addition to our participating troops, the 344th Brigade in western Shanxi, the Death Column, and the Taiyue Column, and the brother troops of the 385th Brigade also helped. Their

There should be a share!”

"The munitions warehouse of the Ninety-seventh Army contains some spare weapons and equipment, as well as a large number of bullets, as well as military uniforms, quilts, cans and other miscellaneous materials. However, with so many of our troops, each regiment cannot get much!"

The munitions warehouse of the Ninety-seventh Army opened Zhou Weihan's eyes, and it was much better than a no-name army like Shi Yousan.

There are 63 unassembled light machine guns alone, 31 heavy machine guns, and 14 82 mortars.

After asking an officer from the Munitions Department, he learned that Zhao Keli, as the director of the Munitions Department, not only deducted soldiers' salaries, but also resold weapons and equipment.

The munitions warehouse of the 97th Army is like Zhao Keli's private warehouse. Originally, the 97th Army was the central army, and each soldier could carry around 30 ammunition.

Zhao Keli directly cut it in half, giving each person 15 rounds of ammunition. Zhou Weihan had someone count the boxes of bullets piled up in the warehouse, and found that there were at least about 300,000 rounds.

Originally, most of the weapons and equipment in the warehouse should be issued according to the establishment of each regiment, but Zhao Keli's regiment was issued three light machine guns less, and that regiment was less issued two heavy machine guns. The little things added up, and he saved such a big fortune.

The leaders of each regiment took shares in the business, and in the name of transporting baggage for each regiment, it was transported out of the warehouse and sold to local bandits and landlords. After the weapons and equipment were sold, everyone involved shared the dividends.

Back to topic.

"I won't go into too much nonsense. The 28th Regiment is in a special situation. Specific problems will be analyzed in detail. Weapons and equipment can be given to you according to the quantity you requested, but we can only give you 30,000 rounds of ammunition!"

"The remaining regiments, the new regiment, and the independent detachment regiment served as a sharp knife regiment in this battle and suffered heavy casualties. Each regiment received an additional 300 rifles, 6 light machine guns, 3 heavy machine guns, and 2 82 mortars.

cannon, 30 boxes of grenades, and an additional 30,000 rounds of ammunition!”

After hearing this, Li Yunlong nodded and thought about it in his mind. He had made a little profit on the battlefield, and with the addition of extra, he should just put it away as soon as he could.

Then he said: "Our new group has no objection, this division is quite fair!"

The other group leaders didn't say much, and everyone benefited from the battlefield.

As the Central Army, the 97th Army does not have the designation of an adjustment division, but each subordinate platoon has 2-3 light machine guns, each regiment has 9 to 12 heavy machine guns, and the regiment has a directly subordinate mortar company.

There are 6 82 mortars.

In the end, all these equipment fell into the hands of various regiments, and they made a lot of money in silence, but they still knew it.

"For the remaining regiments, each regiment will replenish 20,000 rounds of ammunition and 20 boxes of grenades. If you are not satisfied, you can talk to the boss afterwards!" Zhou Weihan said to the regimental leaders present.

The 18th Regiment, the Independent Regiment, the Second Regiment of the Independent Detachment, the Third Regiment, the Fourth Regiment, and the Three Regiments of the Independent Guerrilla Detachment, a total of 8 regiments, with another 160,000 rounds of ammunition and 160 boxes of grenades.

Zhou Weihan smiled secretly and mentioned the boss, and everyone was speechless.

"After the division of the spoils, the telegram from the headquarters also mentioned one more serious matter, which is the decision of Li Yunlong, the leader of the new regiment, to handle the riot incident of the prisoners of the 97th Army!" Zhou Weihan said seriously.

Everyone present looked at Li Yunlong, many of them worried about this old comrade.

"Look at me. Whether you go to the headquarters cooking team to carry a big pot or work as a groom, I have no objection!" Li Yunlong had just received a lot of weapons and equipment, and he was in a very good mood at this time.

"Old Li, don't you be afraid that as soon as you leave, the headquarters will send you a new regiment leader!" Ding Wei joked.

After hearing this, Li Yunlong's expression suddenly changed, and he hurriedly said: "Old Zhou, don't show off, kill or behead him as quickly as possible!"

"In view of the fact that Li Yunlong led the new regiment to have outstanding military exploits in this battle, he handled the prisoner uprising in a timely manner and made decisive arrangements, although he was suspected of venting his anger afterwards.

The headquarters has decided to demote Li Yunlong to the position of acting commander of the new regiment. If he performs well in the future, he will be promoted to a regular position!" Zhou Weihan said slowly.

"Haha, I, Li Yunlong, am more lucky. Look..." Li Yunlong jumped to his feet with joy.

"Li Yunlong, go to the headquarters and take the blame. If the brigade commander and political commissar Deng hadn't interceded for you, you kid..."
