Comrade, Your Ingredients Are Too Complicated

Chapter 80 New Second Regiment Li Yunlong

 “The wind is roaring, the horses are braying. The Yellow River is roaring, the Yellow River is roaring!”

A few kilometers away from the Eighth Route Army's logistics, Commander Li drove his car on a dirt road in the countryside singing songs. Even the buzz of the diesel engine could not cover up his rough singing voice.

“It’s a pity there is no hot pot”

The feeling that he was about to return to the army made him feel physically and mentally comfortable. Although his singing was very unpleasant, and he could even compete with the pig Heng Heng in the carriage, he enjoyed it very much.

This song "Yellow River Cantata" was specially learned after getting to know my fellow villagers, if only because every time I sang this song, I could see Huang He's expression that was difficult to express.

Although he is not returning to his new regiment, Captain Li Da has no grudges about this matter.

 According to his own words, he has not seen any big storms in recent years.

 From joining the army in 2027 to now, the tide has ebbed and flowed many times.

Since the beginning of the campaign against Hubei, Henan, and Anhui, there have been five ups and five downs, and the position of head Guang has been dismissed three or four times.

 It is no joke for an all-rounder to feed a horse and a pig to carry the big pot.

 There are several troops that he brought out alone. Even the soldiers under his command changed one after another, except for the few he had always brought with him.

But this time, Li Yunlong was determined! Unless he is promoted, he will definitely not leave the New Second Regiment and cannot live up to the brigade commander's trust in him!

As for the new group, let’s not think about it. Let’s make peace with it as it comes.

Moreover, he and Ding Wei were soldiers from the same squad, so the new regiment would not be humiliated in his hands, not to mention that they promised themselves a cavalry battalion.

Although he hasn't gotten it yet, Li Yunlong's mouth watered whenever he thought that his army would soon have cavalry.

Moreover, the foundation of the new second regiment that the division commander helped him purchase is really good.

There are a total of 1,100 soldiers in the regiment, excluding junior officers and support staff. Due to various reasons such as physical strength, these soldiers were recruited to the division headquarters training group to participate in training when they joined the army.

 The division teaching regiment has several teaching camps, which are filled with veteran sergeants, and are responsible for training new recruits and training backbone soldiers.

 In principle, the teaching group is not on the front line and will not fight the enemy.

 This is because the teaching team are all experienced veterans, and their talents are used to fight.

These warriors are experienced and train new recruits to be able to play their role, rather than just being sent to the front lines to charge into battle.

With such a foundation, squad leaders and platoon leaders can be promoted from these recruits. According to the brigade commander, there are many good candidates here.

The division headquarters for grassroots officers at the company level has been arranged, and they are basically veterans who have crossed the snowy mountains and walked on the grass.

Some of them are even older than Li Yunlong, but they have stayed at the grassroots level without rising because they really have no commanding talent.

Whoever says that this new group is not a treasure can only say that they are short-sighted.

 At present, the soldiers mainly lack actual combat experience, but under the leadership of veterans in the regiment, the troops can immediately form combat effectiveness after experiencing a few battles.

When it comes to bringing in new soldiers, Commander Li has a great say in this matter. There are no generals from their Fourth Front Army who are not proficient in this matter.

 The deputy division commander taught him his experience step by step, and Li Yunlong has learned a lot about this skill.

Coupled with the experience he has accumulated over the years, he can guarantee that it will be a roaring main force in less than half a year.

Another point is that the current establishment of the Eighth Route Army is only three divisions, six brigades, and twelve regiments, so the new second regiment is naturally an unorganized basic regiment.

 This means that although they do not receive military pay for preserved fruit, they have relatively strong subjective initiative to a certain extent.

Thinking about it, Li Yunlong had already driven to the area where the New Second Regiment was stationed. Considering that the soldiers here did not know him as the regiment leader, let alone this Citroën, he had already hung the flag of the Logistics Department on the car.

 After a while, Li Yunlong saw the soldiers patrolling.

 He immediately stopped the car and stepped forward to ask for directions. When the soldier learned that the man in front of him was his regiment commander, he immediately showed a happy expression.

The arrival of the regiment commander means that combat missions will be sent to them one after another from their superiors. After training for so long, the soldiers can’t wait to show off to the Japanese.

After arriving at the headquarters of the New Second Regiment, the sound of trucks alerted the substitute battalion commander. At this time, many soldiers were already watching curiously nearby.

Li Yunlong judged based on his own experience that the soldier in front of him, who was about the same age as himself, should be the battalion commander assigned by the division.

He took out the letter of appointment given to him by the brigade commander from his pocket, but the battalion commander opposite clearly knew Li Yunlong. He stepped forward and held Old Li's hand tightly and said:

“Captain! We have waited for you like the stars and the moon!”

 The new leader Li Da smiled. Although the atmosphere in the breeding factory was good, he still liked it here better.

Thinking of the gifts prepared for his comrades in the carriage, Li Yunlong assigned his first mission in the New Second Regiment.

 “Someone go to the cooking class and call the cook over! I’ve brought us some good food! I’ll serve meat to everyone in a few days!”

The two-cut pig that Li Yunlong specially selected before setting off was the first batch of large white pigs to come to the base area.

Because the comrades at that time were not yet skilled in the art of cutting pigs, and even the masters could not handle such difficult pigs.

 Originally, everyone wanted to give up this pig because of its specialness, but Li Yunlong brought the spirit of never giving up to the breeding factory.

 Under the careful care of the comrades, this pig actually grew quite well.

 Although there are many shortcomings compared with the pigs of the same period, the meat on the body is barely acceptable.

So when Li Yunlong decided to take something with him, he immediately thought of the end where he had put the most effort. It is better to take advantage of yourself than to take advantage of others!

Although comrades have never seen a big white pig before, if you have never eaten pork, you must have seen a pig running away. It just changed its skin.

When the cook from the cooking class arrived at the regiment headquarters, he was stunned for a moment when he saw the pig pacing back and forth on the side of the cart. He didn't expect to see treasures here that might not even be available during the New Year!

Seeing the cook wearing an apron preparing to cook dinner, Li Yunlong stopped his hand and called him over.

“Come on, come on, help me put the pig down first. Your cooking team will take care of it first. I’ll teach you some tricks tonight.”

“This chicken is the same, just give it some food every day.”

Looking at Li Yunlong who was assigning work, the newly enlisted soldier on the side said with emotion: "This new regiment leader is really capable. I haven't eaten meat for a long time. I didn't even touch any meat during the last Chinese New Year."

 The company commander next to him showed a strange smile after hearing this.

He knew the famous Li Yunlong. With such a leader, he would definitely have to fight in the future, but he didn’t expect that the other party would be an all-around player.

"Our regiment leader is not new. He was the regiment leader before it was adapted. He has old qualifications and great reputation. When it comes to fighting, he is a good player."
