Chapter 50: The Brigadier's Decision
Early the next morning, Li Qing's whistle sounded on time, and everyone hurriedly got up, hurriedly washed their faces and brushed their teeth, and they were assembled after a while.
Li Qing saw that everyone had gathered, so he walked to the front of the team, glanced at everyone, and then smiled.
He said with a smile: "Everyone fought beautifully in this battle!" As I said, this time I'm here to celebrate you! You remember! ”
"Of course I remember! When are we going to start celebrating? A warrior asked curiously.
"Hehe, you kid is in a hurry, let's have a celebration banquet tonight, I'll invite the brigade commander over, you only have one task today, and that is to cook!" Be sure to do it well! Don't treat the Brigadier badly! Li Qing said with a smile.
"Don't worry! I'll arrange it! Yonghang said with a smile.
"Good! You do things, I don't worry! Li Qing replied.
"But you still have to train in the morning!" Li Qing added.
"We'll train! I'll organize it, celebrate and celebrate, but the training task will definitely not be left behind! Yan'er said with a smile.
"Hehe, that's just like words!" Li Qing said with a smile.
Suddenly, a person quickly ran in front of Li Qing and said loudly: "Report to Regiment Commander Li, the brigade commander asked you to go to the brigade headquarters once, saying that there is something important to discuss!" ”
"Oh? What's the matter? Li Qing asked suspiciously.
"Well! I don't know, the brigade commander didn't say it, he just told me to come to you! The warrior said.
"Alright! I'm going to find the brigade commander anyway, so let's go together! Li Qing said with a smile.
Li Qing turned his head and looked at the soldiers and said, "Then I'll leave it to you, I'm going to the brigade commander's time, you can arrange it!" ”。
"Yes!" The crowd replied in unison.
Hearing this, Li Qing nodded with satisfaction, and followed the man straight to the brigade commander.
Soon the two of them rushed to the brigade commander, and the two went into the courtyard, and the soldier quickly ran into the house.
"Brigade Commander, Regiment Commander Li is here!" The warrior stood in the doorway and said.
"Let him in!" Brigadier Jiang replied.
Hearing this, Li Qing hurriedly walked into the house.
"Brigadier Commander, what are you looking for me?" Li Qing asked curiously as soon as he entered the room.
"Hehe, of course it's a good thing!" Brigadier Jiang said with a smile.
"Oh? Tell me about it! Li Qing replied with a smile.
"Well, you sit down first!" Brigade Commander Jiang said, and after speaking, he pulled out a stool.
Li Qing took the stool and sat down, and then asked suspiciously, "Brigade Commander, what good things do you have?" Tell me about it! ”
"Hehe, look at your monkey anxious look!" Brigadier Jiang said with a smile.
Li Qing couldn't help but smile when he heard this.
"I think! Your three regiments and Commander Yan's team lack autonomy together, and many places still obey Commander Yan's orders, which is not conducive to your Li Qing exercising his command ability! So I want to open up a base for you, so that you can have a high degree of autonomy! It is also conducive to the unified management of you Li Qing! What do you think! Brigadier Jiang said with a smile.
"It's good, but the soldiers of our third and second regiments already have a strong brotherhood, and if we take it apart for a while, I'm afraid they won't agree! Besides, it is really difficult for us to get used to life without the Second Regiment. Li Qing said.
"Hey, the revolutionary career is long and broke up, it's okay! You left the second regiment and your brothers from the third regiment! Brigadier Jiang comforted.
"Alright! No matter how you say it, you are also for our good, I am willing to obey your arrangement, take it apart! Li Qing said helplessly.
"Hehe, you can think so!" Brigadier Jiang comforted.
"Cheng, then that's it, I obey the arrangement of the brigade headquarters!" Li Qing said solemnly.
Brigade Commander Jiang patted him on the shoulder, and then said with a smile: "It's good that you can understand me!" ”
"By the way, come here this time, in addition to this matter, I have something else to look for you!" Li Qing said with a smile.
"Oh? What's the matter? Brigadier Jiang asked suspiciously.
Li Qing smiled slightly, and said to Brigade Commander Jiang: "We have a celebration banquet today, and we invite you to go together!" ”
"Hehe, celebration feast! Hehe! All right! It's rare to be so free today, so let's go with you! Brigadier Jiang said with a smile.
"Okay, I'll go back and get ready, you must come!" Li Qing said.
Brigade Commander Jiang replied solemnly: "That's nature, celebration banquet, can I not come!" Besides, I should celebrate you for winning the battle! Don't worry! I will definitely go! ”
Hearing this, Li Qing left with peace of mind. As soon as he walked out of the brigade headquarters, Li Qing ran directly back to the camp and prepared dinner for the evening with everyone.
For this dinner, we have not spent less effort, Yonghang alone in the small ditch caught a day's fish, the small ditch is like a bright mirror, take a closer look, a lot of small fish swim freely in the water, Yonghang held a red tassel gun, two eyes stared at the fish swimming around, and so the fish a little settled, Yonghang will decisively start to act, his ability to catch fish is amazing, as long as the fish swims over, the hand holding the red tassel gun will quickly stab the gun down, This marksmanship is accurate, almost every time he can stab one or two, and it won't take long for Yonghang to catch a big basket.
Na Yi Yang led the soldiers to open small stones in the small ditch by the river pond, carefully looking for those little crabs, the edge of the river pond is sloping, with a layer of large stones, the stones are full of mud, this is the best "home" for crabs. So, the fighters found it here. Yi Yang first lifted a large rock, and two medium-sized crabs came out of it. Yi Yang and a warrior hurriedly set out to catch the two crabs. Yi Yang knew how to catch crabs, he first pressed the crab, then pinched its back, and then easily threw it into the bucket; The warrior couldn't catch it, so he grabbed the crab with his hand, and ended up with the crab in his hand, but he still put the crab in the bucket. Yi Yang hurriedly told everyone the technique, but the warrior couldn't figure it out no matter how he fumbled. However, the warrior was very brainy, and soon invented a new method, avoiding one pair of claws of the crab every time he caught it, and then grabbed the crab by the calf and slammed it into the bucket.
After some efforts, we finally caught a lot of crabs, this crab has many kinds of countless, there are hairy crabs, as well as sand crabs, etc., everyone counted well, this busy work for most of the day, or a great harvest, this time the whole whole caught more than 50!
When it was time to cook, Yonghang washed the crab, cut it into pieces, and marinated it in cooking wine. The crab was pickled for a while and then taken out, at this time Na Yan'er had already cut the loofah into strips, and Yi Yang, who was helping on the side, also hurriedly took out the flour and beat it into a paste, and worked for about 10 minutes before the preparation was done.
At this time, Li Qing walked in and said to everyone, "Hehe, how are you preparing?" ”
Everyone hurriedly took out the prepared materials and showed them to Li Qing.
"Hey, you're pretty fast! Okay, it's my turn! Li Qing said with a smile.
After saying that, he washed his hands and was ready to start showing his might!
He lit the fire first, put it in the pot, and then slowly poured the oil into the pot, and when the oil was hot, he carefully dipped the crab pieces in the batter, and then gently put them into the pot. only heard the sound of "swish", and the crab pieces were fried, and Li Qing kept turning over the crab pieces to prevent more flour from sticking to the pot. Finally, the crab pieces were fried to a golden brown, and only then did Li Qing take out the crab pieces. Then the rest was slowly fried step by step, and by the time all the crab pieces were fried, Li Qing was already sweating profusely.
When the last crab piece came out of the pot, Li Qing hurriedly stir-fried green onions, ginger, minced garlic, and loofah. When it was almost fried, he put in the river crab again, cooked it with cooking wine, vinegar, soy sauce, sugar, chicken essence to taste, and added a little water. Wait patiently for the pot to boil.
When it was time to boil, Li Qing diluted the edamame and the remaining batter with water and poured them into the pot, stir-fried evenly, and it was done. The smell suddenly filled the entire kitchen.
Looking at Li Qing's spirited appearance, Yan'er said with a smile: "Hehe, look at your spirited appearance!" All right! I'll show my hand too! ”
After speaking, he also set up another pot, brought a bundle of leeks and a basket of eggs, and then said to everyone with a smile: "I'll make a leek scrambled egg!" Simple! But the taste should be okay! ”
After saying that, he started to operate.
I saw that she cleaned the leeks first, then dried them and cut them into 3 cm long pieces for later use.
Then reach out and take out a few eggs, crack the eggs into a bowl, and add cooking wine, salt, and monosodium glutamate to taste.
Then she burned the pot vigorously, the smoke was rising, Yan'er hurriedly poured oil, and when the pot "stabbed" sounded, she poured the egg liquid into it, and when the egg liquid was formed, she decisively turned over a dough and fried it until golden brown.
Next, she immediately poured the leeks into it, stir-fried it for a minute on high heat, and then poured the eggs into it as well. Add salt and a little cooking wine, and then quickly put the scrambled egg mixture in it, at this time, she added a little salt again to taste, and then stir-fried a few times before serving.
A fragrant scrambled egg with leeks was displayed in front of everyone's eyes.
"Yonghang, are you also showing your hand!" Yan'er said with a smile.
"Oops! What kind of food can I cook! Yonghang said embarrassedly.
"Hey, your sauerkraut fish is pretty good! Don't be modest! Hurry up and get started! Li Qing said solemnly.
Yonghang hesitated for a moment and said, "Okay! I'll do it, show you a hand! ”
After speaking, he also started to move his hand eagerly. I saw him take out a big grass carp, handle it carefully, scrape off all the scales, and take out the bitter gallbladder and intestines.
Then, he began to do it in earnest, he first cut the backbone of the fish, slice the fish breast, and marinated the fish with ginger slices, green onions, salt, and cooking wine for 20 minutes.
Then he set up the pot and boiled it. Put cold oil, then stir-fry the sauerkraut, ginger and garlic over high heat for 2 minutes until fragrant. Then add water to a boil, bring to a boil and sauerkraut for 10 minutes, add salt, peppercorn noodles and a little pepper to taste.
At this time, Yonghang poured the fish head, fish bones and fish tail into it and cooked it over high heat for 2 minutes, then spread the winter melon and cook it for another 2 minutes.
Finally, put in the fish fillets and cook on high heat for two minutes, and before turning off the heat, Yonghang sprinkled MSG and green onions to taste, and after such an operation, the fish is finally ready.
The fragrant fish was served, and even Brigade Commander Najiang still couldn't help but follow the fragrance into the kitchen.
"Not bad! It tastes so good! Brigade Commander Jiang praised.
"Hehe, where! Where! It's just so-so, Brigade Commander Jiang has been promoted! Yonghang said embarrassedly.
"Don't be modest! Good is good, and I mean it! Brigadier Jiang said with a smile.
"When those brothers finish cooking, it's time to eat!" Li Qing said.
Brigade Commander Jiang looked around, only to see a large number of people crowded into the kitchen, stir-frying. This meal, to say the least, has 30 dishes!
Everyone waited for another 20 minutes, and finally all the dishes were ready.
"It's time to eat!" Brigade Commander Jiang shouted.
Everyone hurriedly sat down and waited for the food to be served, and after a long while, a plate of food was finally served by everyone.
At this time, Brigade Commander Jiang stood up, raised his wine bowl and said to everyone: "This meal, we are celebrating the achievements of the soldiers of your entire three regiments!" Here I would like to praise Yonghang in particular, his bravery is what we have to learn, I hope that your three regiments can have more such elites born, and I hope you can become the pride and pride of our iron-blooded brigade! Let's toast to the bright future of the three regiments! ”
"Good!" Everyone replied, stood up, raised their glasses, and drank them all.
After everyone finished drinking, Brigade Commander Jiang said again: "I want to announce one thing now, in the near future, your three regiments will open up a base area of your own, your three regiments and Commander Yan's team lack autonomy together, and many places still obey Commander Yan, which is not conducive to Li Qing's command of the three regiments, so I hope to open up a base area for you, so that you can have a high degree of autonomy!" It is also conducive to Li Qing's unified management! So I hope you can understand me and do this for your own good! ”
"However, we are reluctant to give up Captain Yan and his brothers!" Yonghang said.
"I know this, the revolutionary career is long, a regiment must have its own base, so as to ensure that your regiment is not affected by other teams, so that you can have a high degree of autonomy, besides, our brigade's defense area is so large, if you don't break it up, who will guard the other openings!" Brigade Commander Jiang said meaningfully.
After hearing this, everyone no longer raised any objections.
"Good! That's it! I'll open up a base for you in a few days! Brigadier Jiang said with a smile.
"Hey, Li Qing is fine! We will always be brothers! Brothers, we will always be brothers! Don't care so much about the distance between us, the Brigadier is right, you have to use autonomy! Such a team is a good team! Head Yan walked in and said with a smile.
"What a big brother!" Li Qing cried when he saw him.
Regiment Commander Yan smiled and said, "You have to listen to the brigade commander!" It is a soldier's duty to obey orders! ”
Hearing this, Li Qing hurriedly wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes.
"Good! Raise your glass and toast to our brotherhood! Li Qing yelled.
"Cheers!" Head Yan said with a smile.
Everyone raised their bowls and drank in large gulps.
