Bright Sword: I don’t want to be the king!

The deputy chief of staff was also present and had a general understanding of what had happened.

So he thought about it carefully, "Boss, why not give Li Yunlong a chance?"

Now the Eighth Route Army urgently needs a combat-oriented general like Li Yunlong, and he is unwilling to let Li Yunlong go to the clothing factory.

The boss finally came to his senses, took a deep breath, and was silent for a while.

The original plan was to let Li Yunlong go to the clothing factory to reflect on himself.

But in order to avoid being demoted, Li Yunlong actually dared to issue a military order.

But when you think about it carefully, this kid Li Yunlong always seems to do unexpected things.

If Li Yunlong had fulfilled his military order, the tension in the Eighth Route Army's North China region would indeed have been eased six months later.

But if Li Yunlong fails to complete it, it doesn’t seem like a bad thing to keep this combat-savvy regiment commander busy for half a year?

The deputy chief of staff continued, "Anyway, Li Yunlong has already signed a military order. Boss, if you can give him a chance, if he can't do it after half a year, can't you just increase the punishment? But if he can do it, then this kid has made a great contribution."

The boss glanced at the deputy chief of staff and finally stopped hesitating. "Okay, then I'll give him a chance to redeem himself and make meritorious contributions! After half a year, if this kid can't do it, I'll increase the punishment! Let him suffer!"

The brigade commander and deputy chief of staff breathed a sigh of relief and a smile appeared on their faces.

The brigade commander laughed and said, "Haha, OK, I'll notify Li Yunlong now!"

If Li Yunlong didn't cause trouble, who would be willing to let him work in the clothing factory to embroider?

Now that there is something more suitable for Li Yunlong to do, he naturally has to do what he should do.

The boss withdrew the order, feeling that this military order was not in line with Li Yunlong's style.

Li Yunlong has many ideas when fighting, but he is very straightforward in his personal life.

Under normal circumstances, if such a punishment was issued, Li Yunlong would have to carry it out even if he was unwilling.

But now, he has actually learned how to deal with his superiors.

The boss asked, "I'm afraid this military order was not Li Yunlong's idea, right?"

The brigade commander immediately laughed and said, "The boss is indeed very perceptive. I heard that this idea was proposed by Cao Geng, the third battalion commander of his new regiment."

The boss curled his lips in contempt, "I knew that Li Yunlong had someone behind the scenes, but it doesn't matter. He can continue to serve as the head of the New First Regiment, which is good for Li Yunlong and us."

After saying that, the boss hung up the phone.

The brigade commander immediately conveyed the commander's intention to the new regiment.

……

After hearing the news, Li Yunlong was naturally very happy.

The boss actually rescinded the order.

This means that he is still the leader of the new group!

However, he was under a lot of pressure afterwards.

The new regiment must be built into a reinforced brigade within half a year!

Even for Li Yunlong, this was an almost impossible task.

Can you do it?

Li Yunlong was unsure.

But now, the arrow is on the string and must be fired.

Just do it!

Li Yunlong took a deep breath and quickly ordered Cao Dabiao to gather all the soldiers of the new regiment.

Soon, Cao Dabiao quickly assembled all the troops of the new regiment!

In the courtyard, the soldiers of the new regiment stood tall.

After the battle of Cangyun Ridge, although they completely wiped out the Sakata Regiment, the New 1st Regiment also paid a heavy price.

There were only more than 500 people left in the entire New 1st Regiment.

There are still 232 people in Cao Dabiao's battalion.

And there were only 186 people left in Cao Geng’s three battalions!

After all members of the New 1st Regiment gathered, Li Yunlong began to discuss the division of troops.

The specific strategy still follows Cao Geng’s original plan.

The entire new regiment is organized into battalions, each fighting independently, looking for strongholds, and developing itself!

For half a year!

After half a year, everyone must return to their base.

By then, whether the new regiment can develop into the size of a reinforced brigade will depend on fate.

Li Yunlong stood in front of all the soldiers of the New 1st Regiment and took a deep breath.

"Brothers, without further ado, this is the current situation of our New 1st Regiment! In the next six months, you can't just rely on me for food, you have to learn to grab food for yourself!"

"I don't care what methods you use, you must expand my army in half a year. If you can't expand it into a reinforced brigade in half a year, my head will be in danger!"

During this half year, Li Yunlong had established a deep emotional bond with the brothers of the New 1st Regiment. Hearing what he said, the soldiers of the New 1st Regiment immediately realized the seriousness of the situation.

Cao Dabiao swore in front of everyone: "Captain, don't worry, if our battalion doesn't perform well in the next six months, we won't come back!"

Fight for a breath of air, not for a bun.

The regiment commander has issued a military order, and their next task is to recruit new soldiers with all their strength.

A battalion must recruit at least 2,500 soldiers in half a year. This is the minimum goal.

All the soldiers of the new regiment were inspired by his heroic words.

"Captain, please rest assured. If we don't succeed in half a year, we won't come back!" The soldiers were full of fighting spirit.

Li Yunlong looked at the more than 500 soldiers with determined eyes in front of him, took a deep breath, and said gently: "No matter where you go, don't forget that you are soldiers of the New 1st Regiment, my soldiers, Li Yunlong's soldiers!"

After saying that, Li Yunlong left.

The three battalions of the New 1st Regiment began to act separately, and Cao Geng did not express any opinion from beginning to end.

However, after Li Yunlong left, he took a deep breath.

He really felt his blood boiling just now.

Then, he led all the people in the third battalion to set off.

From now on, their three battalions, including Cao Geng and 187 other people, will fight independently!

But Cao Geng didn't feel any pressure.

For others, it may be difficult for each battalion to develop independently, but for Cao Geng, this is exactly what he expected, to find a base, develop independently, and attack the enemy independently.

The next six months will be a vast world with great potential for them!

...

Cao Geng led the third battalion out of the base.

Not long after they walked away, Deputy Battalion Commander Wang Huaibao approached Cao Geng and asked, "Battalion Commander, where are we going?"

Before Cao Geng joined the New 1st Regiment, Wang Huaibao was the deputy battalion commander of the 3rd Battalion. After the original battalion commander died, he should have been the most likely person to take over, but Cao Geng took away the opportunity.

At first, Wang Huaibao had resentment towards Cao Geng, but later, after seeing Cao Geng's abilities, he was convinced.
