Chapter 80 New Second Regiment Li Yunlong
"The wind is roaring, the horses are braying. The Yellow River is roaring, the Yellow River is roaring!"
A few kilometers away from the Eighth Route Army's logistics, Commander Li drove his car on a dirt road in the countryside singing songs. The buzz of the diesel engine could not cover up his rough singing voice.
"Too bad there is no hotpot"
The feeling that he was about to return to the army made him feel comfortable physically and mentally. Although his singing was very unpleasant and even compared to the pig Heng Heng in the carriage, he enjoyed it very much.
This song "Yellow River Cantata" was specially learned after I got to know my fellow villagers, if not for any other reason than that every time I sing this song, I can see the indescribable expression on Huang He's face.
Although he did not return to his new regiment, Captain Li did not have any grudges about this matter.
According to his own words, he has never seen any big storms in recent years.
From joining the army in 2027 to now, the tide has ebbed and flowed many times.
Since the beginning of the campaign against Hubei, Henan, and Anhui, there have been five ups and five downs, and the post of head Guang has been dismissed three or four times.
It’s no joke for all-around players to feed horses and pigs.
There are several troops that he brought out alone. Even the soldiers under his command changed one after another, except for the few he had always brought with him.
But this time, Li Yunlong was determined! Unless he is promoted, he will definitely not leave the New Second Regiment and cannot live up to the brigade commander's trust in him!
As for the new group, let's not think about it, just make peace with it as it comes.
Moreover, he and Ding Wei were soldiers from the same class, so the new regiment would not be humiliated in his hands, not to mention that he had promised to give him a cavalry battalion.
Although he hasn't gotten it yet, Li Yunlong's mouth watered as soon as he thought that his army was about to have cavalry.
And one thing is for sure, the new second regiment that the teacher helped him purchase has really good foundation.
There are a total of 1,100 soldiers in the regiment, not counting grass-roots officers and support personnel. Due to various reasons such as physical strength, these soldiers were recruited to the division's teaching corps to participate in training when they joined the army.
The division's teaching regiment has several teaching camps, which are filled with veteran sergeants, and are responsible for training new recruits and training backbone soldiers.
In principle, the teaching group is not on the front line and will not fight the enemy.
This is because the teaching team are all experienced veterans, and they are all using their talents to fight.
These warriors are experienced and can train new recruits to play their role, rather than just being sent to the front lines to charge into battle.
With such a foundation, squad leaders and platoon leaders can promote from these recruits. According to the brigade commander, there are many good talents here.
The divisional headquarters for grassroots officers at the company level has been arranged, and they are basically veterans who have crossed the snowy mountains and walked on the grass.
Some of them are even older than Li Yunlong, but they have stayed at the grassroots level without rising because they really have no commanding talent.
Anyone who says that this new second group is not a treasure can only say that they are short-sighted.
The current soldiers mainly lack actual combat experience, but under the leadership of veterans in the regiment, the troops can immediately form combat effectiveness after experiencing a few battles.
When it comes to bringing in new soldiers, Commander Li has a great say in this matter. There are no generals from their Fourth Front Army who are not proficient in this matter.
The deputy division commander taught him his experience step by step, and Li Yunlong had learned a lot about this skill.
Coupled with the experience he has accumulated over the years, he can guarantee that it will not take half a year to become a roaring main force again.
And another point is that the current establishment of the Eighth Route Army is only three divisions, six brigades and twelve regiments, so the new second regiment is naturally an unorganized basic regiment.
This means that although they do not have military pay for preserved fruit, they have relatively strong subjective initiative to a certain extent.
After thinking about it, Li Yunlong had already driven to the area where the New Second Regiment was stationed.
Considering that the soldiers here did not know him as the regiment leader, let alone this Citroën, he hung the flag of the Logistics Department on the car early.
After a while, Li Yunlong saw the soldiers patrolling.
He immediately stopped the car and stepped forward to ask for directions. After the soldier learned that the man in front of him was his regiment leader, he immediately showed a happy expression.
The arrival of the regiment leader means that the superiors will send combat missions one after another. After training for so long, the soldiers can't wait to show off to the Japanese.
After arriving at the headquarters of the New Second Regiment, the sound of the truck alerted the substitute battalion commander. At this time, many soldiers were already watching curiously nearby.
Based on his own experience, Li Yunlong identified that the soldier in front of him who was about the same age as himself should be the battalion commander assigned by the division.
He took out the appointment letter given to him by the brigade commander from his pocket, but the battalion commander opposite clearly knew Li Yunlong. He stepped forward and held Lao Li's hand tightly and said:
"Captain! We have been waiting for you for a long time!"
The new leader Li Da smiled. Although the atmosphere in the breeding factory was very good, he still liked it here better.
Thinking of the gifts prepared for his comrades in the carriage, Li Yunlong assigned his first mission in the New Second Regiment.
"Someone go to the cooking class and call the cook over! I've brought us some goodies! I'll serve meat to everyone in a few days!"
The second-cut pig that Li Yunlong specially selected before setting off was the first batch of large white pigs to come to the base area.
Because the comrades at that time were not yet skilled in the techniques of cutting pigs, and even the masters could not handle such difficult pigs.
Originally, everyone wanted to give up on this pig because of its specialness, but Li Yunlong brought the spirit of never giving up to the breeding factory.
Under the careful care of the comrades, the pig actually grew quite well.
Although it has many shortcomings compared with the pigs of the same period, the meat on it is barely acceptable.
So when Li Yunlong decided to take something away, he immediately thought of the pig he had put the most effort into. It is better to save money for himself than to save money for others!
Although the comrades had never seen a large white pig before, they had seen pigs running before, just with a different skin.
When the cook of the kitchen team came to the regiment headquarters, he was stunned for a moment when he saw the pig pacing back and forth on the truck bed. He didn't expect to see a treasure that might not be available during the Chinese New Year here!
Seeing the cook wearing an apron and preparing to cook dinner, Li Yunlong waved his hand and called him over.
"Come on, come on, help put the pig down first. You cooks will take care of it first, I will teach you some tips tonight."
"The same goes for the chicken, just give it something to eat every day."
Looking at Li Yunlong who was assigning work, the newly enlisted soldier beside him said with some emotion: "This new regiment commander is really capable, I haven't eaten meat for a long time, I didn't touch any meat during the last Chinese New Year."
The company commander beside him smiled strangely after hearing this.
He knew the famous Li Yunlong, and with such a regiment commander, there would definitely be battles in the future, but he didn't expect that the other party was an all-round player.
"Our regiment commander is not new, he was the regiment commander before the reorganization, he has a lot of qualifications and face. When fighting, he is a top-notch player."
"This volume is mainly about a large number of small battles, you can skip if you are not interested."
