Li Yunlong heard the sour words in Kong Jie's words and didn't take it seriously. He laughed and stood up, patted the dust on his butt and raised his hand, "Since Brother Gao has come to my territory, how can I let him
He just left like this, and we have to prepare a table full of food and wine to treat him to a drink. Lao Kong, what do you think, political commissar?"
Who are Kong Jie and Zhao Gang? An old Red Army veteran who climbed snowy mountains and crossed grasslands, and the other is a top student who graduated from Yanjing University. Their IQs are definitely not low. As soon as they heard Li Yunlong's words, they immediately knew what the hell this kid was up to.
But then again, today's independent group is really poor, and they have to leave with tears in their eyes when they come in. Finally, a rich man came here. If he hadn't been lucky, he wouldn't be Li Yunlong.
"Okay!" Zhao Gang nodded and shouted: "Monk... did you hear what Captain Li just said? Go there immediately and tell Captain Gao that our captain invited him to drink."
"Tell him again, count me as Lao Kong." Kong Jie also interjected.
"Okay." Wei Dayong responded and left.
"Wait."
Li Yunlong stopped him and saw him thinking for a while, "Monk, you can't show our sincerity by just going, so I'd better go in person."
"This is not okay."
Zhao Gang quickly stopped him, "You are the leader of our group, how can you go there in person?
You have to know that although Commander Gao is not a regular member of the national army, he is also a famous big landowner. If anything happens, it will be too late to regret it."
"What could happen?" Li Yunlong waved his hand: "Political Commissar, you have to know that this time we are begging people to beg for help. If you send a guard over, that is not called inviting, that is called asking for help... Do you understand?
"
Looking at Li Yunlong's suddenly serious face, Zhao Gang suddenly discovered that this leader, who usually seemed carefree and had a hot temper, and often scolded his mother, actually had such a showy side. It seemed that he still lacked understanding of Li Yunlong.
Kong Jie also agreed: "Old Li is right, when you ask for help, you have to act like a beggar. If you want to ask for generous donations, but also want to show off, who will buy your account? I agree with what Old Li said.
But what the political commissar said makes sense, so I think it’s more appropriate for me to make a trip. The excuse to the outside world is to thank us for helping us a few days ago, what do you think?”
Zhao Gang thought that although Kong Jie had been demoted to deputy leader, he had been the leader of the independent group anyway. Gao Hongming had just helped him a few days ago, so it was justifiable to invite people over for a drink.
He was about to agree, but Li Yunlong said: "In this case, Lao Kong and I will go together. Since we are going to treat guests, we have to show our sincerity, and don't be hypocritical..."
"Both of you going together?"
Zhao Gang became anxious when he heard this. He was about to say something, but Li Yunlong's eyes widened, "Political Commissar, don't think it's too risky for us to go. What you should worry about most now is that even if I go with Lao Kong, what will happen to him?"
The question is whether Brother Gao will come over. Okay, Lao Kong, let’s go!”
Let's talk, he ignored Zhao Gang who was stunned on the spot, picked up Kong Jie, and the two of them left hand in hand...
On the empty road, a team several miles long was marching along the simple road. Gao Hongming was sitting in the Willys Jeep, his body was shaking with the car. He leaned on the seat and squinted.
He was dozing off with his eyes when suddenly a soldier came to report.
"Reporting to the delegation, there are two people ahead who claim to be Li Yunlong, the leader of the independent group, and Kong Jie, the deputy leader, who want to see you."
"Li Yunlong...Kong Jie?"
Gao Hongming immediately remembered, isn't this the headquarters of the Independent Regiment?
If he supported this soldier, Li Yunlong should be the leader of the independent regiment by now. He said without hesitation, "Take me to see them..."
As soon as Gao Hongming got off the car, Li Yunlong's loud voice rang out: "Haha...Brother Gao, farewell to Cangyunling, we haven't seen each other for more than a month. Brother, I almost didn't recognize you."
Looking at Li Yunlong, who was still wearing a gray military uniform, Gao Hongming also laughed: "Brother Li, what I told you last time has come true, right?"
This sentence made Li Yunlong, who was originally grinning, feel a little embarrassed. Before leaving Cangyunling last time, Gao Hongming said that there may be a risk of being dismissed after returning, but this time will not be too long, and he will be official soon.
Reinstatement.
Now it seems that he was right about all of this.
Ignoring the embarrassed Li Yunlong, Gao Hongming looked at the middle-aged man in his thirties who was standing side by side with Li Yunlong, holding a pipe in his hand and looking at him with a smile. A name immediately came to mind, and he smiled and extended his hand to the other person.
.
"Are you Commander Kong Jiekong?"
Kong Jie quickly inserted the dry pipe gun into his belt, stretched out his right hand and held it tightly with him, "Captain Gao, if you hadn't helped us a few days ago, our independent regiment might not even know who attacked us.
I have always wanted to express my gratitude to you in person, and today I finally have the opportunity. No matter what, you have to give me, Lao Kong, a face today and go to Yangcun to do some work, so that we can fulfill our friendship as landlords."
Before Gao Hongming could speak, Li Yunlong quickly said: "Yes...Brother Gao, I, Lao Li, and Lao Kong came here today specifically to treat you as a guest. Although we are poor, we have enough sweet potatoes to burn, so please give me some."
Lao Li’s face.”
"OK."
Gao Hongming, who had already had this intention, naturally agreed and called Dabao, and brought the security team, Li Yunlong, and Kong Jie to Yangcun.
After the group entered the village, Li Yunlong introduced Zhao Gang to them. The three of them sat down on the kang in Li Yunlong's house, and soon the cooking team brought the food.
Sweet potato roast, pumpkin porridge, sweet potatoes, a pheasant and a large plate of braised pig's feet, this is the best food that Li Yunlong and the three can come up with.
Looking at the food on the table, Gao Hongming couldn't help but sigh: "Brother Li, Commander Kong, and Political Commissar Zhao, it seems that the rumors are true. Your army's life is indeed difficult."
Zhao Gang did not feel embarrassed at all, but said proudly: "Our Eighth Route Army is a team of ordinary people, so no matter how hard life is, we are still happy."
Gao Hongming slapped the table: "Okay, just for your words, I'll toast you!"
After saying that, he raised his bowl and clinked glasses with Zhao Gang.
As soon as he took a sip of wine, Gao Hongming was stunned. How do you describe the taste of roasted sweet potatoes?
It's spicy when you say it. It doesn't have the mellowness of Shao Daozi or the aroma of Erguotou. It's just a spicy word that burns from your mouth to your heart!
Gao Hongming, who drank sweet potato roast for the first time, almost spat out the wine in one gulp.
Seeing how the muscles on Gao Hongming's face were almost squeezing together, Li Yunlong, Kong Jie and Zhao Gang couldn't help laughing loudly...
