Chapter 59: We Lao Li don't want to be the deputy brigade commander and don't want to be promoted!
"What are you talking about? How many weapons and equipment does this guy Li Yunlong have? After giving so much, it's just a drop in the bucket?"
After hearing the guard's report, the boss was so angry that he almost vomited blood.
You know, the number of people in a group in this era is only around 1,300 to 1,500.
And the equipment that Li Yunlong gave him in one go has almost reached the equipment of most of the regiment. In the end, it is only a drop in the bucket, which shows how rich Li Yunlong is now.
The guard smiled bitterly and said helplessly: "Boss, Li Yunlong must have tricked you. Otherwise, I advise you to consider the matter of forming a cavalry company before!"
The boss was stunned, glared at the guard angrily and said, "Since I promised him, it's hard to go back on my word. Although these equipment are just a drop in the bucket to Li Yunlong, I still gave them to him in the end."
Before the boss finished speaking, the guard quickly explained: "Boss, that's not what I meant. What I want to say is that with the horses Li Yunlong has, it is more than enough to form a cavalry battalion, let alone a cavalry company.
!”
The boss was confused again. When Li Yunlong proposed to form a cavalry company, he thought there would only be a hundred or so people.
In addition, Li Yunlong exchanged so much equipment and made a big deal for him, so he agreed.
But what the guard said now was completely different from what he thought.
For a moment, the boss didn't know whether he should be angry or happy.
Fortunately, the Eighth Route Army now has so many horses and equipment, which greatly improves their combat effectiveness.
What makes me angry is that these equipments all belong to the stingy Li Yunlong!
There is no cavalry company in the headquarters, so he actually wants to form a cavalry battalion?
Taking a deep breath, the boss suppressed the anger in his heart and said: "I'm just telling you, why is this boy Li Yunlong so uncharacteristic today? He is willing to give me so much equipment on one condition. This boy has a premeditated plan!"
The guard echoed: "This must have been planned by Li Yunlong. Boss, you must punish him severely for this matter. Otherwise, other troops will be like him in the future. How can we lead our team?"
The boss couldn't help but roll his eyes at him and asked: "Punish him? How to punish him? Although Li Yunlong didn't turn in the equipment, at least he has made up for it now!"
"This situation is not limited to Li Yunlong's troops. Other troops will more or less keep some privately when handing over the spoils of war. If Li Yunlong is punished because of this incident, it will make people panic!"
"What's more, if we talk about this matter, Li Yunlong will not go to the entrance of the headquarters to make trouble? He will accuse me, the boss, of targeting him! When our Eighth Route Army wanted to expand our army, we had no weapons or equipment. I personally said
Promise them, let them do it on their own, and the higher ups will never care!"
"If I go back on my word now, how can I lead troops in the future? Are you asking me to slap myself in the face?"
When he thinks of Li Yunlong's black face appearing in front of him all day long, demanding that he treat everyone equally, the boss can't help but feel chills running down his back!
If that old black-faced man kept talking in front of him for a whole day, his head would explode?
The guard nodded: "Or is the boss thinking too far and just letting this matter go?"
"Forget it? What a beautiful idea!" The boss said with a serious face: "This matter must be handled with a good sense of proportion. You can't punish severely or not punish him, so you have to give Li Yunlong a good beating!"
The guard was stunned, looked up at the boss and asked: "Boss, what do you mean? Why can't I understand?"
The boss smiled and said: "To put it simply, I plan to promote Li Yunlong to deputy brigade commander of the 386th Brigade and let him lead a regiment of troops."
The guard was dumbfounded and asked quickly: "Boss, didn't you mean to beat Li Yunlong? Why did he get promoted?"
The boss showed a wicked smile and said: "This is how I beat Li Yunlong. This guy has so much equipment, enough to equip one or two regiments."
"I promoted him to deputy brigade commander of the 386th Brigade. Will he be able to ignore the other troops of the 386th Brigade? He will definitely have to distribute the equipment by then. This is my blow to him!"
The guard was stunned for a long time before he reacted, and couldn't help but give a thumbs up: "Boss, you are more skilled!"
At this moment, Li Yunlong, who had left earlier, came over with Zhao Gang.
"Boss, you are still here. Everything is almost ready. It's getting late. I won't leave you here to eat! As you know, we are poor..."
Hearing Li Yunlong's words, Zhao Gang on the side quickly explained: "Boss, Lao Li didn't mean that. We absolutely welcome you to come. Lao Li is just worried about your safety!"
As soon as Zhao Gang finished speaking, the boss immediately waved his hand and said with a smile: "Zhao Gang, you don't have to explain for Li Yun. Li Yunlong is my old subordinate. I understand what he means. I won't take this sentence to heart!"
Li Yunlong chuckled: "Old Zhao, look at it, if you don't say it's the boss, we don't have to say what's in our hearts. The boss can understand, so don't mess around here!"
Zhao Gang was speechless and thought in his mind: I helped you, Lao Li, to smooth things over, but you still don't appreciate it?
At this moment, the boss turned to look at Li Yunlong with a smile and said: "Li Yunlong, I really don't know what you are saying unless you speak out."
"I'll give you a chance today. If you have anything to say to me, hurry up. There won't be this store after you pass this village!"
Li Yunlong looked at the boss with a confused expression. He just said that casually, so what should he say to the boss?
The boss looked at Li Yunlong's appearance and said with a smile: "It seems that you have nothing to say to me. That's just right. I just thought of something and let me tell you by the way!"
"After careful consideration, I have decided to let you, Li Yunlong, lead another regiment. At the same time, I will promote you, Li Yunlong, to the deputy commander of the 386 Brigade! I hope you will work hard with your brigade commander in the future, and I hope you can build the 386 Brigade into a team."
The main brigade!”
As soon as the boss finished speaking, Zhao Gang became very excited. He grabbed Li Yunlong's arm and said, "Old Li, congratulations. You will be the deputy brigade commander in the future, and you will be able to lead more troops."
Li Yunlong had a grimace on his face. Unlike Zhao Gang, he knew very well what his boss had in mind.
"Boss, I am only a small regiment commander. It is inappropriate for you to suddenly promote me to deputy brigade commander!"
The boss smiled evilly: "What's inappropriate? First the Sakata Regiment, then the Yamazaki Brigade. Then they rescued the civilians who were captured by the Japanese. With these contributions added up, you can be promoted to deputy brigade commander, which is more than enough!"
"I..." Li Yunlong wanted to say something more, but the boss raised his hand to stop him.
"Li Yunlong, you kid, don't push me back. You can be the deputy brigade commander, and you can be the deputy brigade commander if you're not!"
Li Yunlong had no choice but to nod in agreement.
He had to agree, otherwise the boss would have an excuse to disobey him later, and the consequences might be to take away all the good things he collected!
He won’t suffer this loss!
The boss laughed and said: "In this case, you will be responsible for the equipment of other regiments of the 386 Brigade. You can check it out another day. If that unit lacks weapons and equipment, you can support it. Anyway, you have a lot of weapons and equipment. Deputy Brigade Commander
He must look like a deputy brigade commander!"
After saying that, the boss turned around and mounted his horse: "It's getting late, we should go back, then Deputy Brigadier Li, let's take our leave!"
Chapter completed!
