Chapter 39: Start with Sweet Potato Roast!
"Hahaha·····"
Hearing Kong Jie's words, Li Datuan finally couldn't help it and laughed heartily.
It's been more than 10 years.
This guy still smells so familiar.
As always, it has never changed.
asked for food, asked for help from comrades-in-arms, said it so justifiably, said the momentum, said the stubbornness, and also said the leng, which made people feel that this is a meal that is based on ability.
If you can do this, Kong Er is stunned.
"Okay."
With emotion in his heart, Li Yunlong nodded:
"This face, I will only give you Kong Jie, and it is not easy for the rest of the people to come, Ding Wei exchanged seventy tons of grain with Wang Chengzhu, the commander of his artillery company, and you Kong Jie is worth fifty tons of grain for this face alone."
Hearing that Li Yunlong only planned to give fifty tons, Kong Jie's eyes suddenly widened, and he was very dissatisfied.
Ding Wei wants seventy tons, and he also wants seventy tons.
Although there are only more than 1,000 men in his new 2nd regiment at present, the number of weapons is enough to equip 1,600 men, and there are enough officers, and the main problem that plagues the expansion of the army is food, and as long as there is enough food, he can immediately recruit new recruits from the militia and make the new 2nd regiment full of 1,600 men.
Moreover, the population of the base area over there is also large enough, and a large number of disaster victims have recently arrived, and these are all excellent soldiers. The anti-Japanese enthusiasm was also very high, and as long as the follow-up weapons supply was concerned, it would not be difficult for him to expand to 2,000 people.
He didn't believe it, Li Yunlong couldn't take it out.
There are more than 3,000 people in the independent regiment, and they are full of white flour buns and corn tortillas every day, and they can even eat rice, and the per capita daily food consumption is not less than two catties, and there is even a cavalry battalion, which consumes an ordinary regiment for a week every day.
Moreover, if he can give Ding Wei seventy tons, and he can exchange seventy tons for a company commander, this dog thing, the food is absolutely rich beyond his imagination.
"Still."
"You want seventy tons."
Without waiting for Kong Jie to speak, Li Yunlong suddenly raised his tone:
"Then it's up to you."
"Cooking class."
He shouted.
"Yes."
The leader of the cooking squad in the rear arrived as soon as possible, and generally speaking, when other regiment leaders arrived, the cooking squad leader would come over to stand by, after all, they should prepare wine and food at any time to entertain the leaders of other regiments.
"Prepare a good appetizer on the table."
"Fresh pork, all kinds of canned meat are ready."
Li Yunlong picked up a bottle of Fenjiu from the box that Kong Jie took, looked at the unopened bottle, and said with a smile: "Today, I want to catch up with Head Kong, and I won't go home if I don't get drunk." ”
"Yes."
The leader of the cooking squad ran away.
"Hmph."
Kong Jie didn't hesitate at all: "You say, how can you rely on your ability." ”
Drinking, who is afraid of whom.
The three of them really haven't drunk it once, after all, the army was poor before, and there was no such condition at all, even if the next three became the regiment commanders, there was no condition, the army was poor haha, where to get so much wine to drink enough, only Ou Heat to relieve hunger.
However, in the past year, the conditions have improved, and there are more channels for making wine, this time, he has prepared thirty bottles of wine, each of which is a large bottle, a sufficient amount of one catty.
"I'll give you seventy tons of grain when I get down."
"If you lie down, you will get out of here with fifty tons of grain."
Li Yunlong put down the wine bottle in his hand, and his words were full of anger.
When he gave Ding Wei seventy tons of grain, he was ready to give Kong Jie a little, after all, the three brothers, old comrades-in-arms for more than ten years, and the base areas are adjacent to each other, so they can support each other if something happens.
While speaking, Li Yunlong put the cold food brought by Kong Jie on the table.
The cooking class also began to serve, and fragrant canned braised pork was placed on the table, white flour buns, tortillas, and various vegetables. These dishes have been prepared in the cooking class for a long time.
"Okay."
Kong Jie immediately opened a bottle of sweet potato roast, and took out two large bowls, and after the two bowls were full, one bottle was just empty.
He picked up two bowls of wine and raised his eyebrows at Li Yunlong:
"Come on."
"Then let's each have a bowl of sweet potatoes first."
"Haha·····"
Li Yunlong naturally took a big bowl of wine, and then the two of them simmered at the same time.
Boom.
Two empty bowls were placed heavily on the table.
Looking at the two regiment leaders who had already begun to fight for wine and spelled out their anger, Zhao Gang frowned, and the corners of his eyes kept beating.
"Fuck, that's it?"
He cursed.
Recently, the work in the group has been busy, and he has not allowed Li Yunlong to drink, but he didn't expect Kong Jie to come over to fight for wine today, and he couldn't find a chance to dissuade him, so he could only watch these two guys drink.
Moreover, he did not dare to persuade him.
Otherwise, these two dogs must have pulled him into the water, and with the amount of alcohol he had, it is estimated that he would be the first to be fucked down.
"Monk, you're here looking at these two people..."
After instructing the monk to watch, Zhao Gang chose to leave.
Out of sight, out of mind.
······
When Li Yunlong and Kong Jie were drinking.
Taiyuan.
Inside the headquarters of the 1st Army.
Yoshio Shinozuka looked at the latest intelligence summary in his hand, and frowned tightly to indicate that the commander of the First Army was very unhappy.
"This Chen Fan..."
"There are more than 100,000 troops in the North China Front, hundreds of garrison points, and not a single person has found his convoy."
Yoshio Shinozuka's tone was full of horror.
After the navy did not cooperate with the investigation, he concentrated the main investigation force on the land, and if he wanted to transport such a large amount of grain and other materials to Li Yunlong, there must be a considerable transportation team, but after several months of investigation, he finally failed to find any clues.
"And that's not all."
Kazuki Yamamoto said in the same tone:
"This person even organized a super-large-scale transfer of disaster victims, with an extremely large number of victims in the disaster, and small-scale secrets entered the Eighth Route Army base through the gap in our station."
"Although it is impossible to predict the total amount, I am afraid that the food provided by this person to the victims is not less than tens of thousands of tons, and he also provided a lot of clothing."
Although they are all coarse grains such as sorghum. ’
"But how he transported such a large amount of grain is also a mystery."
Compared with the materials provided to Li Yunlong, this batch of grain made Yamamoto Kazuki even more incomprehensible, tens of thousands of tons, even if he controlled the railway and highway empire, it would take a lot of energy to transport it, how did the other party do it quietly.
"Tens of thousands of tons of grain..."
Yoshio Shinozuka gasped.
This amount, from his point of view, is actually not much, his North China Front, from the occupied areas of the grain collected every year, far more than ten times this, a large part of which is transported back to the mainland.
What made him feel tricky was that all of these tens of thousands of tons of grain were accurately distributed to the victims, and those who traveled long distances all entered the so-called base areas, which was a big trouble.
After the food was available, these people who were forced to flee by famine, hunger and war would definitely join the guerrillas to resist the rule of the empire.
After General Gangcun came to power, the encroachment tactics implemented had begun to bear fruit, the area of the opponent's base area gradually shrank, the population began to decrease, and the scale of the troops had decreased significantly compared with the so-called Hundred Regiment War, but as the encroachment went deeper and reached their so-called core base area, this tactic also began to encounter obstacles, and the other side showed amazing resilience, and with the support of its main force, it even began to launch a counterattack.
I am afraid that there is a part of this group of food and disaster victims.
"And."
Yoshio Shinozuka took out a telegram again:
"According to General Tohi's telegram, no similar materials have been found on the south or north sides, and there is no trace of them at all, which indicates that the other side did not transport them by road to the north or south."
"Is it airlift?"
Kazuki Yamamoto thought subconsciously.
Then he immediately shook his head: "Impossible, the air transportation of tens of thousands of tons of materials is absolutely extremely large, and such a large-scale air transportation will definitely not be able to hide from the eyes of the imperial intelligence department." ”
"Damn Navy Red Deer..."
Yoshio Shinozuka, who was also puzzled, slapped it on the table.
It's all to blame on the navy, which did not cooperate with the investigation, and even organized the army's intelligence organization to investigate, so that they could smear the maritime aspect. Let his investigation stall.
"Let's continue the investigation."
In the end, Yoshio Shinozuka sighed, gritted his teeth and said, "I don't believe it, such a large-scale operation, such a huge amount of materials, and I can't find any clues about this person." ”
Isn't this sentence already a reality?
"General."
Complaining in his heart, Yamamoto rationally changed the topic: "That Zhu Ziming sent a secret letter again." ”
"Oh?"
Yoshio Shinozuka's eyes flashed: "What did he say?" ”
The loss of three planes and the sacrifice of three pilots made him, the commander of the First Army, very distressed.
The First Army's flight brigade has not yet recovered, and there are only more than 30 planes and pilots, and the previous replenishment was not only intercepted by people halfway, but was even killed by Li Yunlong's people in the end, and the replenishment plan was not completed.
The loss of these three planes also made him suspicious of the independent map spies.
"This spy does not seem to have been discovered by the Independent Regiment, and is still serving in the Security Section, and he also said that Wang Gensheng, the leader of the special squad of the Independent Regiment, has not appeared for a long time, and after inquiring, it is said that he was seriously injured, but he did not provide conclusive evidence."
"From this point of view, the previous bombing seems to have had an effect, and the special squad of the independent regiment should suffer huge losses."
Kazuki Yamamoto said.
His heart was inclined to this incident, it was just a coincidence.
On the first day, the reconnaissance plane sent out to cover Zhu Ziming had a counterproductive effect, allowing Li Yunlong to see the opportunity to ambush the imperial planes, coupled with the newly arrived heavy machine guns that could defend the aircraft, so he was dispatched to both wings of the valley with the mentality of trying it out to see if there was a chance.
This time, luck was on Li Yunlong's side.
"Keep watching, and don't give up on this person just yet."
Yoshio Shinozuka said in a low voice.
He finally planted a spy in the Independent Mission, and he didn't want to give up on this person easily. With the strength of the independent regiment, and that mysterious Chen Fan, this spy, is too important.
But reason also made him understand that in this matter, Zhu Ziming was very suspicious.
It is not necessarily a rebellion against the empire, it is absolutely impossible to be forgiven for the things that Zhu Ziming did, which Zhu Ziming must be very clear about, and it is more likely that he was quietly discovered by the independent group.
"It depends on whether the special forces will appear in the future."
Yamamoto's eyes flashed.
As long as the special squad of the Independent Regiment continues to operate, then this spy can no longer be used, and if it does not appear again, then this incident is most likely just an accident.
But this cannot absolutely guarantee that the special squad's inaction is not Li Yunlong's conspiracy.
However, in order to conceal a spy, let a special team not act for half a year...
It can't be.
Although the garrisons have recently increased their vigilance, as long as there is intelligence, it is almost impossible to prevent the infiltration of a special squad, and the role of a small spy is far less than killing an imperial Zhongzuo or a large one.
Yamamoto thought to himself.
"This matter, put it aside for now."
Yoshio Shinozuka doesn't want to mention this matter now: "How are your advance teams, how are you preparing?" ”
"In two weeks, you're ready to go."
Kazuki Yamamoto's tone is confident:
"My first destination is next to Shou County, adjacent to a guerrilla base area of Li Yunlong, just right, I can try to see if Li Yunlong's special squad really suffered heavy losses."
"Very well, it depends on your performance."
Yoshio Shinozuka was very satisfied with this.
······
That night.
"Full of it..."
"Come on, do it."
"!"
The rough roar resounded in the reception room of the regiment, the two regiment commanders were still scolding and drinking, the dishes on the table had been eaten, and the floor was full of empty wine bottles.
Outside the door, the guards of the monk and Kong Jie were drowsy.
"These two dogs, it's like this. Haven't you fallen yet? ”
Zhao Gang, who was busy with work, walked in the door, heard the voice, and immediately jumped to his feet in anger.
Listening to the voice, you know that these two people are almost drunk, but his mother, they are still holding on to drinking, Kong Jie is to get 20 tons more grain, Li Yunlong is to take 20 tons less grain, plus after all, they are old comrades-in-arms, and they have a lot to talk about each other, and this drink went straight from morning to afternoon. Thirty bottles of liquor were drunk, and even Li Yunlong's inventory was taken out, but the two had not yet decided the winner.
At the same time.
Some nameless mountain.
"Business: Japanese Mainland Advance Team"
"With the authorization of the North China Front, Yamamoto Kazuki organized two advance teams of 50 men each, who would be disguised as peasants or the Eighth Route Army and go deep into the base areas around Shou County to carry out sabotage operations."
"For every Japanese advance team member killed, ······ points will be awarded."
"If you kill more than 80 members of the advance team, you will receive two 120 heavy mortars········
Looking at the newly popped mission, Chen Fan took out the iron box communicator in his hand, looked at the stars above his head, and put the communicator back.
"Tomorrow."
Anyway, there's no rush. ’
