"I know you should keep these more than a thousand horse rifles for expansion of the main force."

Zhao Gang said: "But now our independent group has only more than 700 people? Now there are more guns than people. I think it's okay to take out 300 horse rifles and give them to the county brigade."

Li Yunlong said: "Old Zhao, you have to consider the unity of logistics support."

He paused and said, "The county brigade, district brigade and village militia do not have to undertake the main combat tasks, so the logistics support may not be unified, but the main force cannot."

“To reduce the pressure on logistics as much as possible.”

"The weapons and equipment of the main force must be as unified as possible."

"Otherwise, the main force has a variety of weapons and equipment, such as old sleeves, made in Hanyang, Zhongzheng, Liao 13 and 38 major covers, so Lao Gou can't live to exhaust himself?"

"What's more, now there are many Arisaka rifles with 6.5mm and 7.7mm caliber."

"So the seized Type 38 rifles and horse rifles must be given priority to protect the main force."

"As for what you said about more guns than people, it is only temporary. After the New Year, the Independent Corps will definitely be expanded. By then, two thousand rifles may not be enough."

The revolutionary enthusiasm in the Fuliangshan base is indeed very high now.

Especially Feiyundu's great victory completely mobilized the enthusiasm of the villagers.

The villagers were eager to send their children to the army, and they all thought that they would have a promising future in participating in the Eighth Route Army. Otherwise, Zhao Gang would not have formed the county brigade of Ping'an County so soon.

Moreover, the Ping'an County Brigade reached more than 700 people as soon as it was established.

Wang Ye said: "Political Commissar, I agree with the leader of the delegation's opinion on this matter."

"Well, since you two agree, I will obey the majority."

Zhao Gang said: "However, the county brigade has been formed, so the weapons and equipment must be solved, right?"

Li Yunlong said: "Old Zhao, this matter cannot be urgent. When the time is ripe, there will be weapons and equipment."

Wang Ye knew what Li Yunlong had in mind, so he said, "Political Commissar, otherwise this would happen. After the New Year, our independent regiment will definitely be expanded. So let the militias of the county brigade join the main regiment. As for the new Ping'an County brigade, it will not be too late to form the new Ping'an County brigade after the weapons and equipment are in place."

Li Yunlong's eyes lit up and said, "This method is good."

"Hey, this is indeed a good idea." Zhao Gang said happily.

"That's it." Li Yunlong said, "I'll expand after Lantern Festival!"

Speaking of this, he said, "Oh by the way, the tunnel excavation work in each village and town and the construction of the Fuliangshan Fortress cannot be stopped. In a few months, it will be the beginning of spring, and the Japanese may invade at any time."

"Old Li, don't worry." Zhao Gang nodded, "I'm watching myself."

Wang Ye also said: "There is even more problematic on the fortress."

Dozens of prisoners have died of exhaustion.

But overall, the problem is not big.

...

Lijia Town.

There were a dregs of silver dollars and a few gold bars on Qian Bojun's desk.

As they were counting, there was a knock on the door outside, and Qian Bojun quickly swept the silver dollars and gold bars on the table into the drawer.

Then he asked, "Who?"

"I am the battalion commander, rich and noble."

Zhang Fugui's voice sounded outside the door.

"It's you." Qian Bojun breathed a sigh of relief, "Come in."

The door creaked open, and Zhang Fugui flashed in sideways.

Qian Bojun glanced out the door and asked, "Is there no one outside?"

"Battery Commander, there is no one outside." Zhang Fugui smiled and said, "Besides, this is Lijia Town, not Yunqi Town. What are you afraid of?"

"Yes, what am I afraid of?"

Qian Bojun said: "What's there to be afraid of?"

"Big big time, you can't break up after one beat, who can't leave anyone?"

With the accumulation of resentment in his heart and the rapid increase in personal wealth, Qian Bojun's idea of ​​breaking away from Chu Yunfei and establishing a self-employed family is becoming more and more intense.

"Battery Commander, this is the opening gift of the town's business to honor you."

While speaking, Zhang Fugui placed a small box on the table.

Qian Bojun opened the box and saw several small yellow croakers inside.

"Damn, so much?" Qian Bojun's eyes lit up.

Zhang Fugui said proudly: "Now the entire northwest of Shanxi is strictly blocked by Japan. Whether it is the common people or the Eighth Route Army, if you want to buy some scarce supplies, you will get it from Lijia Town. The cloth shops, ready-made clothes shops, grain shops and grocery shops in the town are almost making money. You shouldn't be filial to the battalion commander."

Hearing this, Qian Bojun took the box of gold bars with peace of mind.

When Qian Bojun took it, he weighed it, and it was probably about fifty taels.

But this filial piety is almost worth seven or eight thousand oceans, which is really a lot.

Qian Bojun said at the moment: "It seems that the town's business has made a lot of money at this end of the year."

"Of course." Zhang Fugui said with a smile, "But battalion commander, we make more."

"If you say it wrong, we will only make a few dollars." Qian Bojun said, "The only one with the surname Zheng makes a lot."

"This is different." Zhang Fugui waved his hand and said, "Boss Zheng earns a lot, but he also has more people to manage. Unlike us, we all get ours."

Speaking of this, Zhang Fugui suddenly said, "Battery Commander, should we find someone to clear the relationship?"

"What are you clearing?" Qian Bojun glared at Zhang Fugui and said angrily, "Do you want the Shangfeng to transfer Chu Yunfei away or us?"

Zhang Fugui said: "It is definitely impossible to transfer Chu Yunfei away. Both the chief officials and Chongqing have to use him as a model. It is a telegram and an exclusive interview with the Central News Agency. The radio and newspapers have blown him to the sky. It is said that he will also be awarded the Blue Sky and White Sun Medal. According to this situation, he will be promoted to major general brigade commander. How could he be transferred?"

Qian Bojun said angrily: "What do you mean is to transfer us away?"

"That won't work." Zhang Fugui said, "I won't change this treasure land in Lijia Town, even if I give it to our leader."

"So I'm talking about it," Qian Bojun said angrily, "Aside from that, the skin of the Jinsui Army, how much is the fucking worth? So what if you become the regiment commander?"

"That's true," said Zhang Fugui. "These days, the money is still the most real."

"Oh, when it comes to Qian, I think of that batch of equipment again." Qian Bojun said hatefully, "That's the equipment of the entire cavalry brigade. Chu Yunfei, a prodigal son, said he would give it to someone if he said he would give it to someone."

"Who said no?" Zhang Fugui also said, "Chu Yunfei is so damn good. I really don't know how to be polite to his subordinates. You have to give your subordinates a delicious and spicy drink. You have to give your subordinates a little soup, right? Even if you divide so many weapons and equipment, even if you divide them half, it will be a huge sum of money for the four battalions. As a result, he will give them directly to the Eighth Route Army. That's true."

Speaking of this, Zhang Fugui said again: "So I said there is no future to follow Chu Yunfei."

"I won't talk about this." Qian Bojun sighed, "This world is a day to live."

At this moment, Qian Bojun's guard platoon leader knocked in and lowered his voice and said, "Battleman, have you heard of it? The regiment commander is about to be promoted to brigade commander! The 358th regiment will also be expanded into the Independent 1st Brigade!"

"Is this actually happening?" Qian Bojun's heart moved when he heard this.

Zhang Fugui said happily: "Battery Commander, I will congratulate you first."

According to convention, Chu Yun ascended to brigade commander, and Qian Bojun must be promoted to brigade commander.

Because this is how Qian Bojun followed Chu Yunfei to advance step by step.

However, the guard platoon leader shook his head and said, "Battleman, I heard a bad rumor, saying that you may not be promoted to the regiment commander this time, otherwise you should go to the regiment headquarters."

Qian Bojun's face collapsed.

...

Taiyuan, 1st Army Command.

"Your Excellency Commander, this is a letter from Yan Xishan to you."

Hanagu was dark and handed a letter to Yoshio Iwamatsu.

"Baga!" After reading the letter, Yoshio Iwamatsu was so angry that he patted the big table and said angrily, "There is no such thing as nonsense in the whole story."

"Yes, I'm increasingly suspicious now that he is using peace talks to delay time."

Hua Guzheng said in a deep voice: "Especially after Feiyundu's defeat, his tendency became even more obvious."

"It seems that I have to hit it." Yoshio Iwamatsu said with a dark face, "We want to let him know that the patience of the Imperial Army is limited after all. If the peace talks fail to be successful, they can only destroy the Jinsui Army!"

"So, what method should the imperial army take to attack Yan Xishan?"

Hanagu was frowning and said, "If you attack in full, the cost will be too high and the result will be uncontrollable."

"A comprehensive attack is definitely not possible." Yoshio Iwamatsu waved his hand, "You cannot easily use a comprehensive attack to threaten it before the peace talks are completely broken."

While the two were talking, Jiro Sakuma, the head of the intelligence department, walked in.

"Commander, Master," Sakuma Jiro said, "Heyuan Prefecture Military Police Captain Hirata Ichiro reported that the time was ripe for the rebellion of the Chu Yunfei unit of the Shanxi Sui Army, Qian Bojun, the battalion commander of the 1st Battalion."

"Yoxi." Yoshio Iwamatsu said, "Just warn Yan Xishan with Chu Yunfei's troops."

"Suoga, this is a good idea." Hua Gu Zheng nodded happily and said, "Chu Yun Fei's troops annihilated the 4th Cavalry Brigade at Feiyun Ferry, which is very popular."

"The Chinese government and Yan Xishan both want to take the opportunity to set Chu Yunfei as a typical example."
