Chapter 101 Promoted to group leader?
Kong Jie wanted to lead the independent regiment to attack Shiquan County, so this matter naturally needed to be reported to Li Yunlong.
That night, Kong Jie used the Pioneer Camp's radio to send a telegram to Li Yunlong, telling him about the incident.
Ding Wei, who was standing by, looked at what Kong Jie said in the telegram and felt a little worried.
"Old Li, why don't we let Old Kong wait for a while, and wait until we have settled Linyuan County before attacking Shiquan County?"
Li Yunlong shook his head: "After everything is settled, it will be at least a week later.
Now the troops from Shiquan County that were supporting Linyuan County have been wiped out by the Vanguard Battalion. There are not many defenders in Shiquan County, only 700 Japanese devils left.
The Japanese don't know that we are going to attack Shiquan County.
It is indeed a good opportunity to attack Shiquan County at this time."
"Old Ding, please lead your troops to move to the direction of Dagu, making it look like we are about to attack Dagu County, to confuse the Japanese."
"Old Kong is really anxious now. The independent regiment didn't get a chance in two consecutive tough battles.
If the independent regiment still fails to turn the tide in this attack on Shiquan County, I am worried that Lao Kong will have crazy thoughts. "
Li Yunlong stood up and walked around the table, then turned and spoke to Ding Wei.
"Old Ding, I'll leave all matters in Linyuan County to you. When the time comes, if the brigade commander agrees with the matter with the 358th Regiment, you can handle it."
"I, Li Yunlong, am the head of the independent regiment after all. Now that this dough hat is put on the head of the independent regiment, it is also put on the head of me, Li Yunlong.
Kong Erlangzi wants to take off his hat, so don’t I, Li Yunlong, want to take off my hat?
Kong Jie wanted to lead the independent regiment to attack Shiquan County, but such a thing was not the turn of him as a deputy regiment commander.
I'll bring the 1st Battalion of the Independent Regiment over there later.
I will personally command the battle to attack Shiquan County."
Ding Wei nodded after listening to Li Yunlong's words, and stood up to assure Li Yunlong: "Old Li, don't worry, as long as I, Ding Wei, am still alive, I guarantee that no Japanese will go from Linyuan County to Shiquan County!"
"I will order the troops to move towards Otani County tomorrow at noon, and will feint an attack on Otani County in the afternoon to draw the Japanese reinforcements over."
Li Yunlong nodded.
"Tomorrow I will have the Vanguard Battalion take out the stronghold leading to Shiquan County. In the evening, I will order the Independent Regiment to attack the city."
After Li Yunlong finished speaking, he stood up and took Hu Zi away from the Linyuan County Command Center.
He rushed to Baihuling overnight with Zhang Dabiao and the first battalion of the independent regiment.
Upon learning that Li Yunlong had brought his men over, Kong Jie, who was discussing with Qin Yangming how to attack the city, directly handed over the command.
"At first I thought you would disagree with my attack on Shiquan County, and I was ready to learn from you to mobilize troops without authorization."
Kong Jie was also very happy to see Li Yunlong coming.
Li Yunlong agreed that the independent regiment would focus on attacking Shiquan County and also brought the first battalion with him.
Li Yunlong listened to Kong Jie's words and glared at him: "How can I disagree?"
"Do you think I don't know what you're thinking?
If I don't come tonight, you, Kong Jie, will lead your troops to attack Shiquan County tomorrow morning."
"Kong Erlangzi, after we capture Shiquan County this time, I will definitely suggest to the brigade commander to quickly transfer you to another place to be the head of a regiment."
Li Yunlong pretended to be impatient and waved his hands at Kong Jie.
Kong Jie listened to Li Yunlong's words and smiled: "Somewhere else?
Hahaha, Lao Li, we have captured two counties this time, plus the contribution from Qinghe County, which is enough for our independent regiment to have two more commanders."
"After this, the independent group will be divided into three parts."
"Go away, you and Xiao Qin, you two bastards, you want to split up the family before the order is given?"
"Let me make it clear in advance that, apart from the Vanguard Battalion, you can't take anything else from my Independent Regiment."
"There are no soldiers for you, and I, Li Yunlong, will not give you any equipment either."
Qin Yangming looked at Li Yunlong and Kong Jie who were bickering and smiled embarrassedly.
Qin Yangming also understood in his heart that after taking over Shiquan County, he would be promoted to the position of regiment leader.
Otherwise, with his contributions, the headquarters would have to suppress him. If they continued to suppress him, I'm afraid other people would have objections. Qin Yangming, who had made such great contributions, did not become the head of the group. Others who were qualified but had less contributions than Qin Yangming were simply embarrassed to become the head of the group.
"Captain, the Shiquan County sand table you requested is ready. Please take a look."
While Qin Yangming was thinking, Duan Peng brought a few soldiers and walked into the armory carrying a crude sand table.
Li Yunlong looked at the sand table that Duan Peng brought in, his eyes lit up: "Xiao Qin, let me discuss something with you."
Qin Yangming asked Duan Peng to take out the map and compare it with the sand table, and replied: "Captain, what's the matter?"
"When you leave the independent regiment, let Duan Peng be the captain of the guard company to me.
If you leave, no one in my independent regiment will sit on the sand table. "
Li Yunlong was also envious when he looked at the sand table in front of him.
The sand table is much more beautiful than the map.
Before a battle, it is much more convenient to make a sand table of the terrain of the area to be attacked or defended than to look at a map and imagine it in your mind.
Moreover, with the sand table, it is more convenient to give orders to those battalion and company military commanders who are not very good at reading maps.
It can tell the enemy directly where the troops should be deployed and where to set up an ambush.
There is no need to explain to the other party what the terrain is like here.
Qin Yangming listened to Li Yunlong's words and quickly shook his head to refuse.
Are you kidding? Duan Peng is the future special forces captain that he has been training for a year and a half. How could he possibly give the position to Li Yunlong?
"Captain, no, no, if you want someone who can make a sand table, you can send someone over to learn. It's not like I won't teach."
"Learn, learn nothing."
Li Yunlong rolled his eyes: "You think I don't have this intention, but you know the situation of our independent regiment."
"Among the military commanders of the entire independent regiment, there are only two educated ones, one is you and the other is Lao Zhao.
I only studied in a private school for two years. As for Kong Erlangzi, let alone him, he didn't even know where to put his carrying pole when it fell down."
Qin Yangming felt a little embarrassed after listening to Li Yunlong's words.
It is not easy to train people who can make sand tables.
Among so many people in the assault platoon, only the sand table made by Duan Peng could barely catch Qin Yangming's eye. The sand tables made by others either had problems with the terrain or the orientation.
If Duan Peng is given to Li Yunlong and he becomes the regiment commander in the future, it is impossible that he will need to personally observe the battlefield terrain and make a sand table every time there is a battle, right?
"Captain, if that doesn't work, ask the brigade commander to send you someone who can make a sand table, or someone who can read maps and is well-educated. I will teach them myself."
Qin Yangming thought about it and made a suitable suggestion to Li Yunlong.
"Okay, okay, I don't want Duan Peng anymore."
"Ask the brigade commander to send me someone who can make a sand table. I'm surprised you came up with this idea. Which army wouldn't want such a talent?"
"In our entire 386th Brigade, including you and Duan Peng, there are less than two hands of people who can make sand tables.
Even at the brigade, if they want to make a sand table, they have to work together. I have never seen anyone as skilled as you who can make a sand table by himself."
"How about this, if I need to make a sand table in the future, I will lend Duan Peng to me for a few days. After the sand table is done, I will return him to you."
Qin Yangming listened to Li Yunlong's words and looked at him with some disbelief.
He didn't dare to believe what Li Yunlong said about borrowing.
Everyone in the entire 386th Brigade knows that Li Yunlong is a Pixiu who only goes in and never leaves.
He never said he would return the things he borrowed.
Li Yunlong looked at Qin Yangming's face full of disbelief and said, "Little bastard, what's with that look?!
Am I, Li Yunlong, the kind of person who borrows things and doesn’t return them? ! "
"Hey, Lao Li, don't talk about Xiao Qin. Even I don't believe that you are the kind of person who would return something after borrowing it. I bet that if Duan Peng lends it to you, Duan Peng will become yours the next day."
Kong Jie unceremoniously exposed Li Yunlong's past.
