The wise Brigadier Zhang did not want to continue to witness the tragic situation in which the soldiers of his 358th Brigade were completely crushed by the soldiers of the 129th Division in various competitions.
He took Li Yunlong, Kong Jie and other team leaders to the busy cooking class - a temporary cooking camp composed of dozens of cooking classes.
Brigadier Zhang thought in his mind, out of sight is out of mind.
The troops led by you, Li Yunlong and Kong Jie, are all proficient in all infantry military skills. You can't even let the cooking squad take the spotlight, right?
A group of people entered the large courtyard of the temporary cooking camp. Smoke continued to come from the kitchen, and the entire courtyard was quite smoky.
"Let's go, Li Yunlong, Kong Jie, I want to see what delicacies you have prepared for the soldiers!"
In the past, the gimmick for the warriors' social games was to cook meat in a big pot, as well as steam white flour buns and rice.
But in fact, in addition to these staple foods, the cooking class will naturally prepare some special meals.
Rushing into the house, the temperature brought by the stove fire makes the whole surrounding warm.
As a result, as soon as he entered the kitchen of the cooking class, he saw a familiar face among the busy and coming and going soldiers of the cooking class, and Li Yunlong's old face darkened on the spot.
Damn it, one of them is obviously burly and strong, with a white apron tied around his waist, wiping sweat while busy.
If not him, Li Yunlong’s first battalion commander Zhang Dabiao, who else could it be?
Li Yunlong knows his old subordinate Zhang Dabiao very well.
He cursed in his heart on the spot, damn it, this Da Biao always liked to go to the kitchen to eat secretly in the regiment, why did he come here to steal it?
Kong Jie snickered at the side, and was about to make a joke, but as his eyes shifted, he found that Zhang Dabiao was helping to pass the dishes...
Damn it, isn’t that guy Sun Desheng, the commander of the mechanized heavy equipment battalion of my own team!
It’s okay now, don’t laugh at anyone.
Li Yunlong, with a dark face, had already asked: "I said Zhang Dabiao and Sun Desheng, what are you two doing here? Why didn't I hear that there were two more battalion commanders in this cooking squad?" p>
When Zhang Dabiao heard this, he felt bad. The leader must have mistakenly thought that we came here to steal food. He quickly explained:
"Report to the regimental commander, this is what happened. I am cooking Northeastern cuisine for my brother's troops!
Some of the brothers in the army came from the Northeast. I cooked them a pork stew with vermicelli. The pork was served with some cabbage, sweet potato vermicelli, and carrots. It was definitely popular.
I also braised some pork ribs with potatoes, which is my signature dish."
As for Sun Desheng on the side.
"Old Sun has the same idea as me and is here to help."
Sun Desheng smiled and said: "What I make here is spicy steamed rice, which Shi Dahu taught me; and the big bones are stewed in soybean soup, and the oil on top is stewed to cook the egg noodles. The soldiers must be very happy.
Like.
By the way, those chickens, ducks, and fish were all made into roasted chicken, roasted duck, and fried fish according to the soldiers' requirements.
There are also mutton dumplings and other things are ready."
Zhang Dabiao and Sun Desheng were talking to each other.
What these hungry people are most afraid of is the chefs describing the delicacies. Many group leaders swallowed their saliva in dissatisfaction, and their saliva almost flowed to the ground.
Kong Jie said: "It's interesting. This battalion commander doesn't want to think about how to lead a battle, but he has learned how to cook.
When did you learn to cook, why didn’t I know?”
Sun Desheng replied: "Hey, commander, the political commissar said that in addition to fighting, we should learn some skills in our spare time. The war will always be over. When we live a new life, we must have a skill or some hobbies.
Right?
I heard from Zhang Dabiao that Captain Li drinks less in his free time and likes to repair cars, weld, make furniture, and practice calligraphy!
And you, the old leader, don’t you also like to mess around with radio equipment, record players, radios, and electrical wiring installations?
I saw that in addition to practicing calligraphy, you also like to play that ball with Reporter Shen, yes... table tennis!
We used binoculars to watch you play, and we had a lot of fun..."
Kong Jie: "…………"
Sun Desheng, this guy, really didn't like to pick up any of the pots. Kong Jie couldn't help but almost turned red in the face.
If there was no one around right now, he would definitely kick Sun Desheng in the butt.
This old Sun really doesn't care about the occasion. Can he say this here?
Speaking of which, when we were playing ball with Reporter Shen, this brat actually used a telescope to secretly observe us.
"You boy, I think you are addicted to reconnaissance. When you go back, you can rest for two days at the mechanized heavy equipment camp and then give me half a month of special reconnaissance training!" Kong Jie scolded with a black face.
.
Sun Desheng realized that he accidentally let something slip and got into trouble, so he responded honestly.
Brigadier Zhang on the side was the most emotional.
Okay, I really got it right. These elite troops of the 129th Division, not to mention their military skills, even their cooking skills have not fallen behind.
"Li Yunlong, Kong Jie, you are really capable. Each of the cadres under my command has been trained to be a generalist!"
What a face-saving thing this is!
Li Yunlong immediately grasped it, straightened his chest, raised his head halfway, and said seriously:
"Brigadier Commander! As commanders, we must not only learn new knowledge, but also pay attention to the needs of the soldiers.
Giving respect and trust to soldiers can improve combat effectiveness.
Teaching new tactics and new ideas can also improve combat effectiveness.
Complaint meetings can improve combat effectiveness, and ensuring the soldiers' food, clothing, housing and transportation can also improve combat effectiveness.
I don’t understand other big principles, but every time we do well, we become stronger, and every time we weaken the Japanese in every aspect, the Japanese become weaker. Why not do something like this?"<
/p>
This was so beautifully said that after three days, I was really impressed by it.
In Brigadier Zhang's memory, Li Yunlong, who never said anything to his mother a few years ago, now talks like a well-educated man.
Kong Jie echoed: "What Lao Li said is good!
Through these various measures, we continue to add our weight to the balance, and one day, the balance will tilt towards us.
The more we fight, the stronger we become, and the more the enemy fights, the weaker we become.
One day, the little devils will be driven out of China, and one day, we will be able to win the final great victory of this protracted anti-Japanese war!"
After these words, all the cadres present were silent and thought for a long time, and then their spirits were lifted, and their eyes became firmer and brighter.
The leader of a brother unit next to him asked: "Old Li, you used to hate the Japanese so much that you hated them so much. Why now do you hear that your army has many Japanese advisors?"
Li Yunlong said: "Japanese are also human beings. Those who are afraid of being beaten by me are willing to surrender. I can't imitate the Japanese and bury them alive or behead them, right?
What kind of hero does he show off his force to those who surrendered?
If they are willing to surrender, I have to get something out of them and study this little devil thoroughly. We will have a good idea about this war.
Eating and drinking for free doesn’t work here.
Look at Lao Kong, he captured more Japanese than me, and he didn’t even kill some of those who voluntarily surrendered. Why would I, Li Yunlong, kill them? This is not in line with our Eighth Route Army’s policy of preferential treatment of prisoners."
Another regimental leader asked, "I heard, Lao Li, that you have made a fortune. You have got this howitzer with a large chimney. What kind of gun is this? Is it really so powerful?"
Li Yunlong immediately raised his nostrils to the sky, with a look of looking at a country bumpkin on his face: "Hey, Lao Chen, is this because you are ignorant?
A single shell from a heavy artillery weighing several tons can even travel a distance of more than ten kilometers. Have you never heard of it?
The heavy howitzers used by the heavy artillery regiment specially built by Chiang Kai-shek at that time were nothing more than that.
With these heavy artillery, I am not bragging, as long as our scouts can locate the Japs headquarters, I can even destroy the lair of the Japs commander Yoshio Shinozuka with one shot, do you believe it or not?" This is really something I dare to say and believe. Immediately, the leader of the group asked with a shocked look on his face: "Old Li, are you really not bragging?"
"When did I, Li Yunlong, ever brag?" Li Yunlong asked.
"Is this heavy artillery really so powerful? One shot can even hit more than ten kilometers?"
"It really can't be true anymore!" Li Yunlong patted his chest and said, "Old Li, I have personally fired this heavy artillery, otherwise I dare to brag about this to you?"
Looking at Li Yunlong, who is getting more and more impressive, and the group leaders gathering on Li Yunlong, they look quite admiring.
Kong Jie laughed so hard that his waist almost bent.
"Dear comrades, don't listen to Lao Li's bragging.
If that heavy artillery was really pulled in front of him, Old Li, he might not even know where the butt of the igniting cannon is.
Let’s just say that when the heavy artillery regiment at our headquarters was testing a heavy howitzer, the commander of the regiment asked Lao Li to go further away to watch the drill. It turned out that this guy didn’t believe in evil. What did he say about field artillery? I’ve seen many mountain artillery fires. Such a large caliber, 150 mm.
I have never seen a howitzer fired!
In the end, Lao Li not only did not go far, but also moved a chair to sit back and watch.
Guess what happened?
Boom!
When the cannon was fired, the air wave directly overturned Lao Li. He only heard a loud noise. Amid the huge roar, Lao Li who fell to the ground felt that the world was spinning, and no sound could enter his ears.
.
He was so frightened that everyone quickly helped him up, fearing that our Captain Li would fall.
Old Li was sitting on the chair again, and Captain Li, who was killing Japanese enemies on the battlefield without blinking an eye, his legs were shaking a little, and he took a few minutes to calm down before speaking slowly.
Is this a cannon? It feels like thunder. Did it explode..."
Kong Jie finished speaking.
Everyone was staggering with laughter.
Li Yunlong, who has a bold personality, was exposed by Kong Jie in public, so naturally he was not angry and started laughing.
After leaving the cooking class, I rushed to the venue where the soldiers gathered and a big stage was being opened for a performance by the art soldiers.
Just then, soldiers from the 129th Division distributed drinks to the soldiers from the 358th Brigade at the venue.
This kind of thing is particularly novel for Brigadier Zhang and his team of cadres. None of them have had any drinks before.
So a group leader asked what this was.
Li Yunlong immediately stood up and introduced: "This is called Fifty Thousand Special Drinks. It is a brand of drinks launched by Lao Kong. At the moment, this one is called Anti-Japanese Hero.
What does it mean? After drinking this bottle of drink, I was full of energy and went to the battlefield to kill the Japanese, so I was called an anti-Japanese hero."
Seeing that the cadres were still a little confused, Kong Jie added: "You can think of the Coca-Cola that the US military held in their hands when they were at war."
These words immediately attracted the echo of some group leaders - "Hey, I have heard about this, and it's all right. I heard that the Yankee went to the battlefield with a machine gun in his right hand and a Coke in his left hand.
Once they finish drinking, the first thing they do is not reload the machine gun, but they run to change the bottle of Coke first!"
"Is this stuff really that delicious? Is it more important than his mother's life?"
Li Yunlong said happily: "That's necessary, hey, I'm not here to brag to you, I've never had such a delicious drink in my life.
Come on, come on, everyone is welcome, let’s have a taste.”
Li Yunlong showed great enthusiasm. He picked up more than ten bottles of drinks from the cadres of the logistics department, and then distributed them one by one to the group leaders present.
"Old Li, how do you drink this?"
"Shake, shake it hard first. The harder you shake it, the better the drink will be. Then do you see the cork on top? Pull it off and you can drink it!" Li Yunlong said without changing his expression. Kong Jie: "..."
If he remembers correctly, this brand of anti-Japanese heroes is quite exciting!!!
The next scene seems to be repeated.
Li Yunlong dares to say it, and the cadres dare to believe it.
Anyway, no one has ever drunk this kind of drink. Li Yunlong said so. After the group leaders took the drink handed over by Li Yunlong, they really used all their strength to shake the drinks in their hands. "It's interesting. It's not only fun to drink, but also exciting to shake. Give me a bottle and I'll try it too!" Brigadier Zhang, who couldn't sit still, grabbed a bottle of drink from the hand of the group leader beside him. p>
"Brigadier..." Li Yunlong opened his mouth to speak.
Brigadier Zhang didn't care, he shook the glass beverage bottle crazily in his hand, and then, before Li Yunlong had time to stop him, he directly pulled out the stopper from the mouth of the bottle.
Then...
Pfft——
It happened that when Brigadier Zhang pulled out the cork, the mouth of the bottle was facing his big face, and the drink juice, like splashing ink, hit him unprepared and spread all over.
Almost at the same time, a dozen other regiment leaders also pulled out the corks from the glass bottles, causing a "tragic situation" similar to that of Brigadier Zhang.
Haha——
Hahahaha——
Li Yunlong on the side laughed like crazy. At first, he grinned widely and shook his head. Then he bent down, and finally he just lay on the ground and rolled around laughing. The situation in front of him was really funny. The whole 358
All the commanders who were the mainstay of the brigade fell into Li Yunlong’s tricks.
To be honest, Lao Li couldn't laugh at first. After all, Brigadier Zhang accidentally fell into it, but the situation in front of him was so funny that Lao Li couldn't hold it back in the end.
Kong Jie on the side mourned a few seconds of silence for Li Yunlong in his heart, "Old Li, just laugh. After you finish laughing, you, brother, wish yourself a better life!
On the stage, after a few seconds of silence, dozens of murderous sounds were made:
"Li Yunlong——"
Then, the cadres of the 358th Brigade headed by Brigade Commander Zhang swarmed forward and directly lifted Li Yunlong up. The other commanders who had free hands dug a hole in the snow, and then lifted Li Yunlong up without hesitation.
Buried in a snow pit.
Brigadier Zhang wiped the drink juice from his face and ordered with a dark face: "Freeze me for twenty minutes, then tie me to the crooked-neck tree, put a few helmets next to me, and I'll give him Li Yunlong
Demonstration, what does it mean to always hit the mark!"
