While speaking, Lao Wang brought a large pot of hot stewed horses.

"Come on, Lao Ding and Lao Kong, try Lao Wang's skills." After Li Yunlong said that, he used chopsticks to pick up a piece of horse sausage from a large iron pot that was steaming.

After biting it, it smells, is spicy and fresh, and its tongue almost melts.

Kong Jie took a bite, widened his eyes and said, "Old Li, this is fresh horse meat, are you a damn person and killing horses?"

"What are you talking nonsense? How could I be willing to kill the horse?" Li Yunlong said, "This is the Japanese mule and horse. More than a thousand horses were killed in the melee last night, so you are really lucky."

"So that's the case." Kong Jie nodded and said, "By the way, these more than a thousand mules and horses must be divided into three. Don't you think about taking them alone."

There are more than one thousand mules and horses, and three families are divided equally, and each family has more than three hundred.

Just counting on a mule and horse for 400 kilograms, that is 120,000 kilograms of meat.

There are 120,000 kilograms of horse meat, so they can eat it for half a year.

"I know." Li Yunlong said unhappyly, "Old Kong, don't think about it. I have given you six or seven thousand rifles and more than one hundred light and heavy machine guns, and eight 75mm caliber field howitzers and more than one million Arisaka rifle bullets. Will you be given only a few hundred mules and horses?"

"But I still think it's better to make it clear in front of the drums."

Kong Jie snorted, "But don't worry, Lao Li, we won't take yours in vain."

"Isn't I just taking mine for nothing?" Li Yunlong's eyes lit up and he asked, "What do you mean? You'll give us Lao Li a big gift?"

Kong Jie smiled and said, "This year, our Wohu Mountain Base and Lao Ding's Jiugong Mountain Base have collected more than 10 million kilograms of public grain alone. Next, our three regiments will be expanded, but if the troops want to expand, it is not enough to have weapons and ammunition alone. We also have to have food. We decided to take out the food and divide it equally."

More than 10 million kilograms of grain were divided equally by three families, and each group was about 3 million kilograms.

The Eighth Route Army's rations are usually one pound and two taels, and ten thousand people are 12,000 pounds a day. Three million pounds of grain are enough for the independent regiment to last for half a year. Even if the wartime quantity is based on one pound and eight taels, it can last for half a year!

Li Yunlong said at the moment: "Old Kong, and Lao Ding, what should you ask me to say? Thank you."

Zhao Gang also stood up and said, "Captain Ding, Captain Kong, you have solved our urgent needs."

The Japanese sweep this time had a very big impact on the autumn grain harvest in the Fuliangshan base area, because they could only be harvested at night and the time was tight, so it would inevitably cause great waste of food.

Therefore, this year, it is impossible to collect public grain in the Fuliangshan base.

Maybe when the Qinghuang was out of reach, the Independence Group took the food upside down and gave it to the villagers.

Ding Wei waved his hand and said, "The harvest this year is actually average, and the harvest next year will definitely be better."

Speaking of this, Ding Wei continued, "So old Li and old Confucius, now our three regiments are strong and have strong troops, and they are not short of food and ammunition. After having heavy weapons, they also have certain ability to attack. I think we can discuss the future situation in northwest Shanxi."

Wang Ye thought to himself when he heard this, Ding Wei really has strategic thinking.

In the northwest Shanxi iron triangle, Kong Jie has a tough style and is not discounted in the execution of superiors' orders, but lacks flexibility.

Li Yunlong is very sensible, and he is a bit nasty when fighting. He has a rebellious personality and likes to cause trouble. When fighting, he is like a wolf. He is cunning and fierce. If the Japanese are accidentally bitten by Li Yunlong, he will bite a piece of meat.

However, Li Yunlong lacks a view of the overall situation and can only see the immediate interests.

Only Ding Wei, whose tactical command is no worse than Li Yunlong, and he also has a superior strategic vision. When Li Yunlong just wanted to expand and Kong Jie was just thinking about the issue of eating, Ding Wei was already considering the issue from the overall situation of northwestern Shanxi, and even considering the possibility of a counterattack.

So Wang Ye thinks that if the headquarters leader really wants to choose someone from the northwest Shanxi iron triangle to serve as brigade commander, Ding Wei is undoubtedly the most suitable candidate.

Li Yunlong and Kong Jie were all a little bit dissatisfied.

"The future situation?" Li Yunlong's expression moved when he heard this.

Kong Jie said, "Lao Ding, that's not the issue you and I should consider."

"Old Confucius, I don't agree with you." Ding Wei curled his lips, "not to mention the brigade commander, the division commander and the boss are far away from southeastern Jin hundreds of kilometers away. Even the brigade commander and the others are in northwest Jin. We should consider it and have to evaluate it. As the saying goes, if a person does not have long-term plans, he will have immediate worries, and only if he is prepared can he be free of trouble."

"There is another saying that if you don't take it, you will be blamed."

After a pause, Ding Wei continued: "If our three regiments have expanded to more than 10,000 people, and after about half a year of training, and we have heavy weapons and even tanks, we can consider taking the initiative instead of guarding the base area and waiting for the Japanese to come to the door!"

"Lao Ding, I agree with you."

Li Yunlong said: "Observation is the best defense."

"Take an initiative?" Kong Jie said, "We don't have this strength yet, are we?"

Ding Wei nodded and said, "Overall, there is indeed a huge gap between our Eighth Route Army and the Japanese army, but if we only focus on northwest Shanxi, the situation will be very different."

"Old Ding, you kid is really a dog-headed military advisor."

Li Yunlong said: "You can analyze it quickly and analyze it. What is the difference in the situation in northwest Shanxi?"

Ding Wei turned his gaze to Wang Ye and said with a smile: "Xiao Wang, don't let me talk alone, you can also say that you are a top student who graduated from the Berlin Military Academy. I don't believe that you can't see the situation in northwest Shanxi."

"Captain Ding, are you giving me the test questions?" Wang Ye smiled and said, "That's fine, so I'll just say something and say a few of my own simple opinions. Just throw a brick and a sensation."

"You have to be good, Xiao Wang, you can't lose your book bag."

Li Yunlong said angrily: "Speak human words and we can understand."

"Why don't I speak human words?" Wang Ye's face turned dark in an instant, "Didn't I just say a few idioms?"

Li Yunlong said: "I look down on you intellectuals. Even though I know that we are not a few of us, we have to drop our book bags in front of us. Why are we showing off?"

Hearing this, Zhao Gang's face also collapsed.

Li Yunlong's words had a wide range of blows, and he accidentally injured Zhao Gang.

Moreover, Zhao Gang vaguely felt that Li Yunlong had something in his words and was using this matter to squeeze him out.

"Fuck." Wang Ye didn't spoil Li Yunlong, so he directly retorted, "Is it a person who is knowledgeable and educated to become a person of our intellectuals?"

"That's not what."

Li Yunlong said in a snorting voice: "You intellectuals should get rid of the bad habit of losing your book bags and chewing words, so that you can get along with us workers and peasants."

"Why don't you say you should strengthen your studies?" Wang Ye said with a dark face. "Every time, he regards himself as a rude man and takes pride in being uneducated. The leader of the group, I look down on someone like you."

"Xiao Wang, you finally said what I want to say."

Zhao Gang slapped his thigh and said, "You should scold me well!"

Kong Jie also said: "Old Li, you should strengthen your studies."

"Ahhh." Li Yunlong glared, "Why are you all coming at me?"

Wang Ye said again: "Captain, it's not that I said you. You really should have more studies. Just a few words are far from enough. Our Eighth Route Army cannot stay in the mountains to fight guerrillas. One day we will launch a counterattack, liberate the county town and liberate the prefecture city, liberate the provincial capital, or even liberate Peking."

"One day, our Eighth Route Army will compete with the Kuomintang army in the Central Plains."

"One day, our Eighth Route Army will seize national power, and maybe there will be a chance to fight with the world's number one military power abroad."

"By then, there will be a lot of noise."

"Without culture, you will definitely not be responsible for it."

"Fuck, what's wrong with not having culture?" Li Yunlong said disapprovingly, "I don't have much culture, but I still lead troops to fight without culture, and I'm not worse than others."

When his eyes swept to Kong Jie, Li Yunlong said again: "Especially better than Kong Erlangzi."

"Look, is this dog angry?" Kong Jie almost choked to death because of anger.

Wang Ye said sneeringly: "Captain, if you want this, you will be the leader of the group in your life. No matter how big the command position is, you may not be able to take on it."

"Nonsense." Li Yunlong snorted, "This time, Fuliangshan counter-sweeping, I commanded the three regiments to fight. Isn't it still commanding with great enthusiasm? Didn't it still win?"

Zhao Gang said: "That was commanded by Xiao Wang."

Li Yunlong said shamelessly: "Xiao Wang is my subordinate, and his command is my command, which means one."

"Captain, in the future war, it is absolutely impossible to be a senior commander without a good cultural foundation." Wang Ye said earnestly, "I will give you a few examples."

"I'll tell you about landing and airborne battles, do you understand?"

"I'll tell you the theory of the large-scale combat in-depth combat with the large corps. Can you understand?"

"I'll tell you about the rapid assault of the armored cluster, that is, blitzkrieg. Can you understand?"

"I will tell you about air-ground coordination, three-dimensional joint combat between land, sea and air, and contract combat. Can you understand?"

Wang Ye threw out a series of "Can you understand?" Li Yunlong was stunned when he heard it. Zhao Gang, Ding Wei, Kong Jie, Xing Zhiguo and others were also stunned.

After a long time, Li Yunlong said with a dark face: "Damn it, he is a top student who graduated from the Berlin Military Academy. He knows a lot, and he is well-behaved. He is convinced this time. From today on, we, Lao Li, will definitely strengthen our studies. In short, we will never drag the Eighth Route Army back."

Seeing Li Yunlong admit defeat, Wang Ye suddenly felt a little happy.

Wang Ye thought, he was probably the only two people besides the brigade commander who could make Li Yunlong admit defeat?

Wang Ye said now: "Let's get back to the point and continue to talk about the future situation in northwest Shanxi. Judging from the current situation, the Second Guard Division has basically been crippled by our independent regiment."

"It's not only the division commander Miyanoji Ichi was shot dead."

"A artillery gang, a heavy artillery gang and a chariot gang were also lost."

"In other words, the technical equipment of the Second Guard Division is basically gone. In this case, I think the Japanese base camp will most likely not rebuild the Second Guard Division."

Ding Wei said solemnly: "What do you mean is the Japanese base camp revoking the number of the Second Guard Division?"

"It is very likely that, because the technical equipment of the Second Guards Division has not only been completely lost, but its energy and spirit have also been destroyed by our independent regiment, and reconstruction is meaningless." Wang Ye said, "If I guessed correctly, the Japanese base camp is likely to use the Third Brigade as the base, and then add thousands of remnants of the Second Guards Division into a new three-unit division, which is specifically used to maintain public security and rectify the war in northwest Shanxi."

Kong Jie said solemnly: "In other words, will this new division be our future rival?"

"Yes." Wang Ye nodded and said, "Unless Yoshio Iwamatsu plans to launch a new round of sweeps against our three regiments, there will be only this division of the Japanese in the northwest of Shanxi."

Li Yunlong's eyes lit up and said excitedly: "If this is the case, our troops will be 30,000 and the Japanese will be 15,000. Our equipment and training are no less than those of the Japanese. Then we can really take the initiative to attack, liberate the county towns in northwest Shanxi one by one, and finally liberate Anhua and completely cut off the Tongpu Railway."
