Bright Sword: Rebirth of Kong Jie

Li Yunlong: "..."

A gust of cold wind blew in through the window of the regiment's headquarters, making Old Li a little disheveled.

When he was the commander of the new regiment, he was often robbed and extorted by the old brigade commander.

This is great. Now that Old Li has become the deputy head of the group, he still cannot escape this disaster!

As for where the brigade commander got the information from.

How come the independent regiment had just defeated the puppet cavalry battalion in Wanjia Town, and Li Yunlong had just returned with his war horse, and the brigade commander got the news right after?

There's nothing surprising about this.

As an old brigade commander of the Hexagonal Warriors, he is proficient in everything, whether it is political work, intelligence work, or military command.

He was the head of the intelligence group of the Central Special Branch.

If he didn't even have this ability, he wouldn't be in front of Li Yunlong. He is the second in command, but the brigade commander ranks ahead of him.

Li Yunlong, who has always been a troublemaker, became more obedient than ever every time he met the brigade commander, like a mouse seeing a cat.

But when he thought of what Kong Jie had promised him - as long as he, Li Yunlong, could stop the brigade commander's blackmail, Kong Jie would give him, Li Yunlong, half of the cavalry battalion's war horses.

Li Yunlong immediately perked up and started practicing Tai Chi with the brigade commander on the phone.

"Old brigade commander, how can that be possible? You know that the independent regiment just suffered a defeat, and the second battalion is almost crippled. The troops are so poor that they can't even afford to eat, how can they make money?"

The person on the other end of the phone laughed, "Li Yunlong, you're sticking your butt out, and I don't know what you're going to fart about. Don't pretend to be poor in front of me.

I heard that your independent regiment has set up a cavalry battalion?

You want to set up a cavalry battalion for your regiment, so should I set up a cavalry regiment for my brigade?"

Li Yunlong continued to smooth things over: "With your reputation as a brigade commander, you are not even worth a cavalry division!"

The brigade commander said: "Okay, stop talking nonsense. Tell Kong Jie that your independent regiment has done a great job in capturing the cavalry battalion. Leave one cavalry company here and bring the remaining horses to the brigade headquarters."

"No, no, no! Brigade Commander, aren't you robbing?" Li Yunlong immediately cried out in pain.

The brigade commander used his trump card: "Then you mobilized the troops without permission, we have to have a serious talk with you!"

Li Yunlong's old face suddenly turned dark. Why did these words sound wrong?

After coming to his senses, he immediately retorted: "Report to the brigade commander, have you forgotten that I am now the deputy commander of the regiment!"

The brigade commander said, "That's even more correct. You are a deputy regiment commander, but you mobilized a battalion to fight without asking for permission. This is a serious crime."

Hearing this, Li Yunlong was stunned.

I mobilized troops without authorization?

Damn it, it was clearly this guy Lao Kong who first proposed the idea, and he ordered me to lead a battalion to attack Wanjia Town, okay?

So in the end, all the blame is put on me?

But before Li Yunlong could explain, a voice came from the other end of the phone:

"Let Kong Jie answer the phone."

"Yes!"

Kong Jie strode over and took the phone without changing his expression.

I only heard him say: "Yeah, yeah, that's right! Commander, you are right, I will listen to you!"

"Yes! It costs too much to maintain a cavalry. The cost and consumption of training a cavalryman is almost equal to that of three infantrymen. With the financial resources of our independent regiment, how can we afford such a large treasury?

Leaving only one cavalry company is almost enough to break the sky!

I've been thinking of sending the other two cavalry companies to you, and I've even discussed it with Lao Li before!

Please rest assured, Brigade Commander, I will send you the war horses of the remaining two cavalry companies later.

Lao Li doesn't obey orders?

No, no, Lao Li, the deputy head of the group, is doing a very competent job!

Yes, it was indeed me who gave the order to send a battalion to attack the puppet cavalry battalion in Wanjia Town... Yes, it was not Lao Li who did it secretly without telling me. Please rest assured, Commander, I am telling the truth, the truth!"

The brigade commander was very satisfied with Kong Jie's attitude. He thought he was still the good comrade who had a down-to-earth character and was capable of fighting tough battles.

With this in mind, the brigade commander gave his final instructions:

"I was also worried for a long time when you kept Li Yunlong in your independent regiment as deputy commander. You said, putting bad kids together with good kids, wouldn't that make people worry?

Kong Jie, you better be careful and don't learn bad things from Li Yunlong!"

As if on purpose, the brigade commander spoke particularly loudly, so that Li Yunlong, who was not far away, could hear it clearly through the microphone.

Li Yunlong: “…………”

Snapped!

The phone hangs up.

Kong Jie turned his head, looked at Li Yunlong, and spread his hands helplessly.

"Well, Lao Li, we only have one cavalry company left now, so don't worry about it!"

Li Yunlong also felt it was a pity, and suddenly remembered something, and cursed: "Good old Kong, I finally figured it out, you kept me in your independent regiment as the deputy commander, so you want me to take the blame for you, right?

It would be a serious crime if I mobilized troops without permission.

How come nothing happens to you?

In the end, you got a cavalry company and received a lot of praise from the brigade commander, but I, Old Li, was scolded by the brigade commander and took the blame, but I didn't get any benefits at all. Who can I complain to?"

Kong Jie said, "Old Li, you are wrongly accusing me. You just heard what I said on the phone. I gave the order this time. It was definitely not you who mobilized the troops to fight without authorization."

That's true.

But why does it sound like the effect is the opposite?

Li Yunlong expressed that he was extremely depressed. He was afraid that he would never be able to get rid of the blame on his head. How could it be more frustrating than the real big blame he had to bear when he was in the kitchen?

——Brigade headquarters.

After the call was hung up, the political commissar beside him asked with a smile: "Brigade Commander, what did Li Yunlong say?"

The brigade commander snorted, "This guy is still as cunning as ever. He is using the deputy regiment commander as an excuse to try to trick me and detain the cavalry battalion. It's a nice idea."

The political commissar smiled and said, "Commander, in your opinion, who was the one who came up with the idea of ​​arbitrarily mobilizing troops to launch a surprise attack on the puppet cavalry battalion in Wanjia Town without instructions from the superiors?"

The brigade commander hesitated for a moment and replied, “It doesn’t matter whose idea it was.

The most important thing is that the two cavalry companies are about to fall into the pocket of our brigade."

what?

The political commissar was stunned for a moment, then he could no longer hold back and burst into laughter.

It’s true that the brigade commander’s personality is quite similar to that of Li Yunlong.

——It’s like a larger version of Li Yunlong!

……

Independent regiment.

Repair shop.

Kong Jie was busy for nearly two weeks before he left the repair shop and returned to the regiment headquarters.

Very helpless.

The materials stored in the independent regiment’s warehouse that could be used to make hand-made artillery and guns were basically used up.

In the end, I could only manually make 6 2mm mini mortars, 3 mm mortars, and unscrupulous cannons that could fire special explosive packs.

A total of 11 guns.

Moreover, they are not real artillery, and the number of specially made shells that can be fired is also small.

Kong Jie was worried about this. If he didn't have enough materials, he wouldn't be able to make more cannons by hand. It seemed like it was time to find a way to do some side job and borrow some materials from the Japanese.
