Bright Sword: I took Li Yunlong to work in military industry

Chapter 20 President Jiang's commendation and the brigade commander's reprimand

At dawn, the Japanese advance team finally cleared all roadblocks and arrived at the place where the train was bombed.

Everyone was exhausted.

Because on this road, due to various coincidences, they came into conflict with the 358th Regiment of the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army.

As a result of the 358th Regiment's deliberate and unintentional actions, the Japanese division suffered a heavy loss, losing as many as four to five hundred people.

This also made the Japanese troops remember the name of Chu Yunfei from the 358th Regiment.

The Japanese Inuyangi Captain, whose face was blackened by the smoke, looked at the huge pit that was four or five meters deep and the train twisted around the sleepers like a twisted dough stick. He was so angry that his face turned pale.

In the more than one year since they took over Jin, they have never suffered such a large-scale attack again.

Dozens of Japanese soldiers' bodies were covered with white cloth and placed in front of the regiment commander. Many of the bodies were not even complete, and some even had only one leg or only a head.

This made the Japanese captain Inuyama extremely angry, and he ordered a thorough investigation of the case to find out who the real murderer was.

The entire battlefield was too clean.

Gray strips of military uniform left by scratches.

There are also "shrapnel" from the unscrupulous homemade cannons.

All this points to an almost impossible answer, that is, it was the Eighth Route Army that caused such a commotion?

"Captain Inukai, what are you trying to tell me by saying this? Are you trying to tell me that those armed troops wearing rags and even using swords and spears as weapons are the masterminds of this explosion?

Are you trying to tell me that they don't even have bullets and suddenly have such powerful firepower?

Are you kidding me?" Shinozuka Yoshio on the other end of the phone was almost mad with rage.

It would have been fine if he had not protected the shota line, but I didn't expect that he would come up with such a ridiculous reason to deceive himself. It is simply unforgivable.

"Commander, based on the information we have at present, we can only prove that this incident is related to the Eighth Route Army." Captain Inukai naturally understood the anger in Yoshio Shinozuka's words, but he could only bite the bullet and report everything he saw.

Yoshio Shinozuka hung up the phone angrily. He was afraid that if he heard one more word, he would explode with anger.

Then, he arranged for someone to find Colonel Yamamoto Ikki, who was an expert in special operations.

"Colonel Yamamoto, according to Inukai's feedback after the on-site investigation, this incident is related to the Eighth Route Army. I want your team to infiltrate the Eighth Route Army and help me find out who did it.

I will make him bear the wrath of the Yellow Army!"

Veins bulged in Yoshio Shinozuka's eyes, revealing boundless rage.

If this incident was done by the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army, he might not have been so angry. However, he did not expect that it was done by the Eighth Route Army, which was extremely poorly equipped. This was something he absolutely could not tolerate.

"Ha!" Yamamoto Ikki took the order and began to prepare to sneak into the Eighth Route Army to conduct an investigation.

......

When Yoshio Shinozuka was so angry that he went berserk, Li Yunlong was being scolded at the brigade headquarters.

"Li Yunlong, you are amazing. You have done such a big thing for me without making any noise. Even the head of the headquarters knows about it, but I am still kept in the dark."

The brigade commander held the whip tightly in his hand. It was obvious that his emotions were fluctuating violently at this moment, and the whip was shaking constantly.

Li Yunlong closed his eyes and did not dare to look at the brigade commander who was angry.

What qualifications does a brigade commander have? To be scolded by him is something many people would wish for. Li Yunlong could only comfort himself in his heart.

"Tell me, arbitrarily mobilizing troops, what a serious crime that is. Are you going to chop off this chamber pot on your head and put it here with me today?"

As he said this, the brigade commander hit him twice hard with the whip.

Li Yunlong didn't dare to say much and could only stand with his chest out and endure a few blows from the brigade commander's whip.

"Li Yunlong, do you know how the head of the headquarters commented on your incident?"

"I don't know!" Li Yunlong was a bachelor, so he just said he didn't know.

"Then I'll tell you, Li Yunlong, the head of the headquarters said that you mobilized the troops without permission, which is a serious lack of organization and discipline.

Just for this reason, it is not excessive to shoot you!" The brigade commander cursed at Li Yunlong.

Li Yunlong was startled, thinking that this time it wouldn't be serious.

"What? You're not talking now? Why don't you tell me about how you led more than a thousand people in the regiment to blow up the enemy's transport train when the moon was dark and the wind was strong. How impressive and heroic you were!"

"But, you've seriously neglected your duty! Before the operation, you even cut the telephone line. What are you trying to do? Rebellion?"

"Li Yunlong, are you a little bit dissatisfied with what I said? I'm telling you, don't be dissatisfied in front of me, you are not qualified at all!"

The brigade commander was so angry that he whipped the table with a whip, making a loud snap.

"I am dismissing you from your position now. Are you convinced?"

"I am convinced. How dare I, Li Yunlong, not be unconvinced? I brought all the soldiers of the regiment back safely, without any casualties.

Brigade Commander, if you want to dismiss me, then go ahead. Anyway, I feel freer without an official post. It is also very tiring to lead the soldiers to fight. "Li Yunsong said sarcastically with a pursed mouth.

"Okay, okay!" The brigade commander's anger was aroused again.

"Okay, I'll make you free from official duties. Cook squad leader, go and carry your marching pot to me! Captain Li, congratulations, from now on you will be the cook squad leader of my brigade.

From now on, you just have to shoulder this responsibility!"

"Brigade Commander, if anyone needs to take the blame, let's go back to the independent regiment and take it instead of taking it for our brigade commander." Li Yunlong glanced at the iron pot from a distance.

"What? You want to take the blame for me? When did I ever let my subordinates take the blame for me? Don't be so sarcastic, kid."

Li Yunlong: "Alas, I have to take the blame. A higher-ranking official can crush a person. A good cavalry battalion is gone, and now I have to take the blame for the brigade commander."

"Don't be a bitch, the headquarter leaders are criticizing you by name. They criticize you because they love you!"

"Someone wants to praise you. Do you want it? If you want it, take it. This is a commendation issued to you personally by President Jiang." The brigade commander said as he took out a piece of paper from the side.

Li Yunlong took a look and said, "Commander, I can't read. Just tell me what I can exchange for."

"Go to Chongqing and ask him for it yourself. I don't have it here." The brigade commander threw the commendation order directly in front of Li Yunlong.

"Our President Jiang is just doing some empty talk, it's meaningless."

"Don't be so ungrateful, kid. Let me tell you, the headquarters leaders are very angry about you mobilizing troops without permission.

However, considering that you have achieved great results and caused no casualties, you will be given a punishment that balances your merits and demerits. No punishment, no reward."

After saying that, the brigade commander glared at Li Yunlong.

"Hehe, Brigade Commander, thank you, thank you!" Li Yunlong jumped up from the chair and prepared to run away. Anyway, he didn't want to stay in the brigade headquarters for a moment.

"Wait, I have finished talking about the orders from the head of the headquarters, but the matter between us is not over yet." The brigade commander pushed Li Yunlong into the chair and stared at him.

Li Yunlong was a little scared by the brigade commander's stare: "Brigade commander, what are you doing?"

"Li Yunlong, can you tell me where you got such powerful firepower to blow up the Japanese train this time?

I know all about it. It would have been impossible to blow up the Japanese train so cleanly without six or seven thousand kilograms of explosives.

Five or six thousand kilograms of explosives. You have more than me, the brigade commander.

Tell me the truth, kid."

The brigade commander held Li Yunlong down and prevented him from getting up.

Li Yunlong spoke in plain language: "Brigade Commander, we blew up a Japanese artillery tower some time ago, and there happened to be a batch of explosives inside..."

"That's what you told me last time. A thousand kilograms of explosives are still stored in the brigade's quartermaster department. How come, by coincidence, you guys took down the Japanese arsenal?"

The brigade commander certainly didn't believe Li Yunlong's lies, and there was no way he would be fooled so easily.
