Chapter 5 Two Fierce Generals
But soon, a solemn look appeared on Wang Ye's face again.
Li Yunlong and several onlookers thought that Wei Dayong was quick and knocked Li Yunlong down with one punch, but Wang Ye saw more.
Wei Dayong's straight punch just now seemed simple, but it was actually very unusual.
This punch has reached the extreme in terms of power, angle, and speed. It would be impossible to achieve this level without tens of thousands of boring and repetitive practices.
Wei Dayong, this monk who drinks and eats meat, does have some talent.
Hearing the noise in the yard outside, Zhao Gang and Kong Jie also rushed out.
Seeing Li Yunlong lying on the ground with his legs up in the air, but Wei Dayong still in the posture of punching, how could Zhao Gang and Kong Jie not figure out what was happening?
Zhao Gang suddenly became anxious.
"Wei Dayong, what are you doing?"
Zhao Gang was really worried that Wei Dayong would harm Li Yunlong.
This was a fierce man who killed four Japanese devils with his bare hands.
An ordinary person would be seriously injured if he touched a finger.
Wei Dayong pointed at Li Yunlong and said, "Commander Zhao, he..."
At this time, Li Yunlong finally recovered . He struggled to get up and said with a smile: "It's okay, it's okay. We are just sparring. Good boy, you have some skills!"
Fortunately, Li Yunlong has been practicing martial arts since he was young.
So it’s okay for those with thick skin.
Li Yunlong walked back to Wei Dayong.
Then he said: "You can do it with me, Li Yunlong!"
"Li Yunlong?" Wei Dayong's expression changed and he asked, "The commander is Li Yunlong?"
"Why? I don't look like him?" Li Yunlong said, "I am Li Yunlong, absolutely."
"It's really Li Yunlong." Wei Dayong said happily, "Okay, I'll follow you."
Li Yunlong laughed and said, "So happy, aren't you going to look for the 27th Division of the Central Army?"
"No more looking for him, no more looking for him." Wei Dayong shook his head repeatedly. "I heard about your name in the prisoner-of-war camp. You dared to fight with the Sakata regiment head-on with bayonets and killed Sakata with one shot."
Li Yunlong said disdainfully: "What's a mere Sakata?"
"Sir, I admire you for being brave enough to fight the devils head-on with bayonets." Wei Dayong said excitedly, "I will follow you from now on."
"Congratulations, Lao Li."
Kong Jie said: "I recruited a fierce general."
Li Yunlong laughed, looking very proud.
What is a mere monk named Wei?
Our Old Li's reputation has already spread throughout northwest Shanxi.
Looking at Li Yunlong with a smug look on his face, Zhao Gang seemed to be thinking about something.
On the way here, he tried his best to persuade Wei Dayong but failed.
But Li Yunlong only needed to register his name to make Wei Dayong stay willingly.
There is also Wang Ye, who joined the Eighth Route Army because he admired Li Yunlong's name.
Zhao Gang said, "Deputy Captain Kong, I'm afraid Captain Li has recruited not one but two powerful generals."
"Hmm?" Kong Jie and Li Yunlong turned their heads at the same time and asked, "Two brave generals, what do you mean?"
Zhao Gang pointed at Wang Ye and solemnly introduced him to Li Yunlong and Kong Jie: "Wang Ye is a Chinese living in Germany. He once studied military affairs at the Berlin Military Academy. He is a truly top student!"
Wang Ye stood at attention and saluted Li Yunlong and Kong Jie.
Li Yunlong and Kong Jie were stunned. A top student returning from Germany?
Is this a mistake? How could such a top student come to this corner of northwest Shanxi?
Shouldn't such a top student join the Central Army and be valued by Commissioner Chiang?
Kong Jie immediately asked: "Political Commissar, how did you mobilize such a talented student?"
"Deputy Captain Kong, I don't have that ability." Zhao Gang waved his hand and turned to Li Yunlong and said, "Captain Li, Xiao Wang is coming for you too."
"To me?"
Li Yunlong was really flattered.
When did our Lao Li become so famous?
Even overseas Chinese in Germany have heard about it?
Kong Jie was both envious and jealous. Old Li was so lucky.
They just recruited a brave general like Wei Dayong, and now they have recruited a good staff officer, who is a top student who graduated from the Berlin Military Academy in Germany. It's really enviable.
No, this good thing cannot all belong to this kid Li Yunlong.
When we split up someday, we must take one of them with us no matter what .
“Yes.” Wang Ye said nonsense, “I actually went to Zhongtiao Mountain last year.”
"However, the situation of the Central Army on Zhongtiao Mountain is a little hard to describe."
"Just when I was about to lose confidence in the anti-Japanese cause, I heard about the heroic feat of Captain Li leading the New 1st Regiment to defeat the Sakata Regiment head-on and kill the commander of the regiment, Sakata Nobutetsu."
"So I decided to come and seek refuge with Captain Li."
"On the way, I encountered a thief who was playing dirty tricks."
"They robbed me of all my clothes and left me only a pair of pants."
"Then we unfortunately encountered a squad of Japanese invaders."
"And then the political commissar rescued you?" Kong Jie asked.
Not only Kong Jie, Li Yunlong also felt that it must be Zhao Gang who saved Wang Ye.
"No, no, no, Deputy Commander Kong, you are wrong." Zhao Gang waved his hands and said, "I didn't save anyone, and Xiao Wang didn't need anyone else to save him. He killed an entire infantry squad with his bare hands!"
"What did you say?" Kong Jie wondered if he had heard something wrong, and asked in disbelief, "You mean, he killed a whole squad of Japanese infantrymen with his bare hands?"
Kong Jie originally thought that Wang Ye would be a staff officer.
It turned out to be a more powerful general than Wei Dayong!
What happened today? Why did I meet such fierce people?
Monk Wei killed four devils with his bare hands.
The other one was even more incredible, he actually wiped out an entire class with his bare hands!
Li Yunlong also looked unconvinced. Killing a whole squad of more than a dozen Japanese soldiers with bare hands? Who would believe that?
Even Wei Dayong looked at Wang Ye in surprise . He was confident that he could kill four or five Japanese devils with his bare hands, but if he faced a dozen of them with his bare hands, he would probably have little chance of winning.
"It was pure luck," Wang Ye said quickly. "When the Japanese saw that I was only wearing a pair of shorts, they let down their guard, which gave me the opportunity to get close to their machine gun crew. I took out the Japanese machine gunner by surprise, and then I seized their machine gun. I fired a long burst and killed all of them."
"So that's what happened." Li Yunlong breathed a sigh of relief. "That's what I said. If a person really kills a whole squad of Japanese soldiers with his bare hands, is he still a human being?"
"It's not easy even if you use a gun."
Kong Jie said: "Xiao Wang is really great, both civil and military!"
Wang Ye said: "I don't dare to accept the title. I still need to learn from the regiment commander, the political commissar and Deputy Regiment Commander Kong."
Li Yunlong laughed loudly, turned around and shouted: "Lao Gou? Lao Gou!"
A cadre ran out from the east wing in response, looking shrewd.
Li Yunlong pointed at Wang Ye and Wei Dayong and said, "Change their clothes and arrange accommodation for them."
"Yes!" Lao Gou saluted and left with Wang Ye and Wei Dayong.
Watching Wang Ye and Wei Dayong go away, Zhao Gang said sincerely: "Captain, your name is still effective. I tried my best to persuade them but failed. But you just mentioned your name and made them willingly join our independent regiment."
"Hehe, this is nothing." Li Yunlong said with some pride, "I dare not say that I am Old Li in Shanxi, but in this small piece of land in northwest Shanxi, my name is still effective."
"Old Li, look at what you can do." Kong Jie scolded with a smile, "Do you really think you are a hero?"
"Old Kong, don't be unconvinced." Li Yunlong said with a grin, "My name is more famous and effective than yours, Kong Erlangzi. Otherwise, why is it that only Monk Wei and the top students who returned from Germany came to me, but Monk Shu, Monk Wu, and the top students who returned from France and the United States did not come to you?"
"Yeah, I can't compare with you." Kong Jie said unhappily, "But I'm already so unlucky, shouldn't you give me some compensation? Otherwise, let Monk Wei be my bodyguard?"
"Kong Erlangzi, what are you thinking? How can you be the one to get such a good thing?"
Li Yunlong cursed, "Wei Heshang was saved by Political Commissar Zhao, and he stayed in the independent regiment for my sake. Even if he wants to be a guard, he should be a guard for Political Commissar Zhao. Why should he be a guard for me?"
Kong Jie said: "Boy, don't you already have a guard?"
"Don't you have guards too?" Li Yunlong said, "Then let Monk Wei be the guard for Political Commissar Zhao."
Kong Jie stopped talking. Although Zhao Gang felt that a brave general like Wei Dayong should be transferred to the front-line troops, he had just arrived and did not want to contradict Li Yunlong on such a trivial matter.
At that moment, Zhao Gang asked again: "How should Xiao Wang arrange it?"
"Xiao Wang is different from Monk Wei. It would be a waste of his talent to let him be a guard. I have to think about this carefully." Li Yunlong pondered, "Let him stay at the regiment headquarters for a few days to familiarize himself with the situation."
"I think it's okay." Zhao Gang nodded.
Kong Jie had no objection either.
