Chapter 77: Ding Wei Is A Brilliant General
“Since we’re grabbing a locomotive from the Japanese Invaders for you, just relying on one Hell Cannon for artillery cover definitely won’t be enough.”
Li Yunlong said seriously to Li Muzhi, “So, the Hell Cannon in our Brigade Commander’s hands definitely should be used too, don’t you think.”
“That’s natural.” Li Muzhi nodded, looking at Li Yunlong, “What’s wrong, won’t your Brigade Commander bring out the cannon in his hands?”
The Brigade Commander is not someone who doesn’t understand the overall situation.
“The Brigade Commander will definitely bring out the cannon in his hands, but it’s most likely for the 772 Regiment or the 771 Regiment.” Li Yunlong said to Li Muzhi, “But I cooperate very well with Old Ding of the New First Regiment. You’ve probably heard of the New First Regiment too, the troops that crushed the Sakada Regiment on Cangyun Ridge. Although I’ve equipped the New First Regiment with a lot from my family fortune, it’s still short one Hell Cannon. Little brother, you’ve met Regimental Commander Ding before too, and this time he went to great lengths to help your arsenal get things. I want you to say something to our Brigade Commander, see if the Hell Cannon in the Brigade Commander’s hands can be given to Regimental Commander Ding.”
Li Yunlong knew that the four Hell Cannons later had been intercepted by the Division Commander.
This time they got a lot of stuff back, and the Brigade Commander isn’t stupid, so he definitely won’t use it to exchange for a Hell Cannon again.
Because if they exchange again, it will be intercepted by the Division Commander too.
So, it’s most likely to exchange for cannonballs.
In other words, our brigade’s Hell Cannons are basically fixed at only two.
They must hurry to get the Hell Cannon from the Brigade Commander’s hands to Ding Wei, and nail down the big decision in advance.
To prevent the 772 Regiment and 771 Regiment from coveting it.
Those sons of bitches, they need to show off properly in front of them!
As soon as Li Muzhi heard it, he understood everything.
This Li Yunlong really has quite the guts.
This time you poked a hole in front of your Brigade Commander, and the Brigade Commander confiscated your cannon.
Then you come to me to stand up for you. Not only do you want to get your own cannon back, but you also have designs on the cannon in the Brigade Commander’s hands. Aren’t you afraid your Brigade Commander will whip you?
“Regimental Commander Li, whoever your Brigade Commander gives the Hell Cannon to is an internal matter for your combat troops. It’s not really appropriate for me to interfere, right?” Li Muzhi felt that if he agreed, it would seem like he’s meddling too much.
“Yes, little brother, elder brother knows this request is indeed a bit too much.” Li Yunlong nodded, continuing to play the card of military industry construction, and said, “I, Li Yunlong, am very good at judging people. Old Ding has much higher vision than the regimental commanders of the 772 Regiment and 771 Regiment. Giving him a Hell Cannon, with the two of us partnering up, it’s not me bragging, but the stuff we grab for you will definitely be much more than those other two regiments. This is also for the future of our military arsenal, it’s for…”
“Did you brag in front of Regimental Commander Ding, saying you could get him a Hell Cannon?” Li Muzhi directly exposed it.
“Little brother, Old Ding is my old comrade. This poor brother lost his chance to study in the rear area because I made a mistake, so I’ve essentially delayed Old Ding’s future too. Not only did he not hold it against me, when I was demoted from being the New First Regiment’s regimental commander, he even gave me a cavalry battalion,” Li Yunlong said sincerely, “So, getting him a Hell Cannon, isn’t that what I should do!”
As soon as Li Muzhi heard it, that was indeed the case.
In the TV series, although it always says Ding Wei picking up Li Yunlong’s ready-made when he came to the New First Regiment.
In reality, Ding Wei going to the rear to study would have a better future.
Li Yunlong causing trouble did indeed delay Ding Wei.
Moreover, Ding Wei did indeed have the highest vision in the Iron Triangle, just as Li Yunlong said.
Li Yunlong and Kong Jie could only see tactical level, while Ding Wei was at the strategic level.
In a word, Li Yunlong is a general talent, Ding Wei is a commander talent!
Capable people should indeed be equipped with better equipment.
These two, one with great guts, one with far-reaching vision, combined, with Hell Cannons, the Hell Cannons can definitely achieve their best effect.
So, Li Muzhi nodded and said, “Alright, alright, I’ll mention it to your Brigade Commander then, but I still have to say it upfront, I don’t guarantee it will definitely work. After all, this is an internal matter for your combat troops.”
Seeing that Li Muzhi agreed, Li Yunlong burst out laughing: “Hahaha, no problem, no problem. I believe as soon as you speak, our Brigade Commander will definitely do it.”
At this point, Li Yunlong was completely at ease in his heart.
As long as the cannon from the Brigade Commander’s hands goes to Old Ding, the brag I made to Old Ding will be fulfilled, making those sons of bitches die of envy.
Seeing Li Yunlong looking like he ate honeyed shit, Li Muzhi still reminded him: “Regimental Commander Li, I see your Brigade Commander’s temper doesn’t seem that good either. If your Brigade Commander scolds you then, don’t…”
Li Muzhi could foresee that as soon as he brings this up with Brigade Commander Chen, Brigade Commander Chen is not someone who doesn’t understand the big picture, he will agree.
It’s just that Li Mouren will definitely get thoroughly cleaned up again by the Brigade Commander behind his back.
“Little brother, don’t worry about that. I understand our Brigade Commander, no need for you to worry.” Li Yunlong indicated that the Brigade Commander side was no problem.
How few times have I been cleaned up by the Brigade Commander?
Every two days a small scolding, every three days a big scolding, and I’m still doing fine.
It’s not like it’ll cost me a piece of flesh.
“Alright then, since Regimental Commander Li you aren’t worried yourself, consider me talking too much.” Li Muzhi didn’t mention this topic anymore. Anyway, the one who gets harshly scolded by your Brigade Commander then won’t be me.
“Good, good, little brother, talking with you is really comfortable.” Li Yunlong felt so comfortable he wanted to stretch, and continued, “Little brother, this time testing cannonballs, you hit a scrap yard. I heard from our Brigade Commander that there are small lathes inside.”
“Small lathe?” Li Muzhi was delighted again, “Really?”
Small lathe, this can be used to make parts and small components.
“Little brother, don’t get too happy too soon. It’s a scrap yard, scrap small lathe, not intact.” Li Yunlong explained, then immediately said, “Since this lathe is so important to you, no need to say more. Once the Hell Cannon shells are sufficient, even if I have to pierce the sky of Northwestern Shanxi, elder brother will get you an intact lathe.”
“Scrap small lathe might still be usable.” Li Muzhi was still very happy.
With the Eighth Route Army logistics conditions like this, having a scrap lathe is better than none.
Once power is set up, we’ll find a way to repair it.
“Indeed, indeed, I raise both hands in agreement with what you said.” Li Yunlong had no doubt about Li Muzhi’s words.
With a batch of simple equipment and large caliber steel pipes, he could make heavy artillery!
Even a scrap small lathe in his hands would turn stone into gold!
