Li Yunlong answered the phone, and Chu Yunfei's voice came from the receiver next to his ear: "Brother Yunlong, this is Chu Yunfei."
"Brother Chu?" Li Yunlong grinned, "Where did you get rich recently?"
"How can we get rich? We are so poor that we can hardly afford to eat." Chu Yunfei said: "Brother Yunlong, last time you led your troops to northern Shanxi to support our 38th Regiment. I am grateful to Brother Yunlong for your help. I will love you sooner or later."
I have to pay them all back, but for the mule carts of my transport team, Brother Yunlong, you promised me to pay them back in full, so you’re not going to beat me up, are you?"
As expected, Li Yunlong guessed that Chu Yunfei came to him to ask for a mule cart.
Commander Li's eyes widened and he said: "Oh, look at my memory, how can I forget it so hard? Brother Chu, this matter is a bit difficult to handle now."
"What's wrong?"
Chu Yunfei's tone on the other end of the phone changed a little.
Li Yunlong said: "I'll tell you the truth, I really didn't pay much attention to the more than 00 mule carts at first. You saw it too. My new group all drove into cars and I just returned them. But now things are a bit troublesome."
, my chief of staff, he doesn’t know that these mule carts were seized from the Japanese and will be returned to your 38th Regiment.”
"A while ago, our regiment had to transport supplies to the headquarters in southeastern Shanxi. My chief of staff arranged for these mule carts to go to southeastern Shanxi."
"I've been so busy lately that I forgot about this matter. I'm really sorry, Brother Chu."
"Brother Chu, can you please slow down?"
"When these mule carts return from southeastern Shanxi to northwestern Shanxi, I will definitely arrange for someone to send the mule carts to you."
"Brother Yunlong." Chu Yunfei asked, "How long will it take for these mule carts to return to northwest Shanxi?"
"It's hard to say." Li Yunlong said: "It can take as little as one or two months, or as long as half a year."
Chu Yunfei said displeasedly: "When these mule carts return from southeastern Shanxi, all the more than 4,000 brothers in my 38th regiment will probably starve to death in Dagushan."
Originally, the 38th Regiment had more than 0,000 people.
However, we fought several battles in northern Shanxi and suffered hundreds of casualties. Now there are only more than 4,000 people left.
"Brother Chu, let me teach you a trick." Li Yunlong said, "You report the loss directly to Chief Yan. If Chief Yan insists on tracing it, then blame it on me. You can say that I have a bad character and never do it.
It's nothing to do for my friends. Those mule carts will be used as military expenses for my troops. Commander Yan comes from a wealthy family and understands this rule. He knows that you have to be paid for working for others."
"You have to negotiate the price to help me. There is something wrong with my character."
After finishing speaking, Chu Yunfei hung up the phone with a bang.
A snapping sound and a blind tone came from the receiver, and Li Yunlong quickly put the phone away.
Putting the receiver on the phone, Li Yunlong turned around and saw Zhao Gang, Xing Zhiguo and Wang Dehou with Lao Gao grinning.
…
Dagushan.
38th Regiment Station.
After Chu Yunfei hung up the phone, he snorted coldly, but his expression was a little helpless.
After all, Li Yunlong did not snatch these mule carts from the 38th Regiment. Even if the lawsuit was brought to the Second Theater Command, Chu Yunfei would not be justified.
Fang Ligong on the side said: "Tuanzuo, we were deceived by Li Yunlong. He never thought about returning these mule carts."
"This person is simply a scoundrel." Chu Yunfei said coldly, "His new family has a great cause, but he doesn't even return more than 100 mule carts."
Fang Ligong said again: "What should we do now, regiment? In half a month at most, our 38th regiment will be out of food."
Chu Yunfei sighed: "Send a telegram to the superior department to report the losses, and then request the superior department to allocate food and salary as soon as possible."
This time, Chu Yunfei led the main force of the 38th Regiment to attack Datong in northern Shanxi. He originally thought he had missed something.
But Chu Yunfei never expected that the Japanese 36th Division would be defeated so quickly at the hands of the new regiment.
The Japanese 3rd Brigade returned to Datong and collided with the 38th Regiment.
The mountain artillery brigade of the 3rd Brigade, more than 100 mule carts and nearly 400,000 kilograms of supplies were all used to make Li Yunlong's wedding dress.
However, Chu Yunfei had nothing to say. Instead, he owed Li Yunlong a big favor. If Li Yunlong hadn't led his troops to northern Shanxi, Chu Yunfei and the 38th Regiment might have been wiped out by the Japanese 3rd Brigade.
"Yes, Tuanzuo!"
Fang Ligong straightened up and was about to turn around and leave.
At this moment, the telegraph operator came in with a telegram in his hand and gave a military salute: "Report to the regiment, Chief of Staff, Sir Yan, urgent call!"
Chu Yunfei took the telegram and read it, then narrowed his eyes slightly.
When Fang Ligong saw this, he asked: "Commander, what did Chief Yan say in the telegram?"
Chu Yunfei said: "Sir Yan ordered our 38th regiment to return to Kenanpo immediately to rest."
"Oh?" Fang Ligong looked surprised, and then suddenly said, "It seems that the Japanese army is preparing to gather heavy troops to attack the Eighth Route Army in northwest Shanxi."
"Li Yunlong first led a heavy attack on Taiyuan and killed the commander of the First Army, Yoshio Shinozuka."
"We then attacked the three county towns of Ping'an, Anhua and Heyuan, severely damaged the 36th Division, and killed the commander of the 36th Division, Jing Guanren."
"Presumably Li Yunlong is already a thorn in the side and a thorn in the flesh of the Japanese army."
"It's only a matter of time before the Japanese army gathers heavy troops to mop it up."
Chu Yunfei nodded when he heard this. This time the Japanese army's raid on the Eighth Route Army in northwest Shanxi was probably no less powerful than when they attacked Zhongtiao Mountain in March.
And Chief Yan also knows this very well.
The 38th Regiment's last sneak attack on Datong must have been resented by the Japanese army. If the Japanese army mobilized heavy troops to sweep northwest Shanxi.
Then the 38th Regiment will most likely be easily eliminated by the Japanese army. With the combat effectiveness of the 38th Regiment, it cannot even defeat a single Japanese regiment.
This time, the Japanese army's raid on the Eighth Route Army in northwest Shanxi probably had more than 4 divisions!
"Brother who has made great contributions," Chu Yunfei said, "Give me the order to assemble the whole group."
"Yes, Tuanzuo!"
Fang Ligong straightened his body, turned around and left.
…
Zhaojiayu Village.
After Li Yunlong finished talking to Chu Yunfei, he waited for a while, and the time came to four o'clock in the afternoon.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! So, everyone came to the entrance of Zhaojiayu Village to wait for Chen Feng.
As everyone waited eagerly, more than 10 minutes later, they finally heard the sound of horse hooves.
Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang followed the sound and saw Boss Chen and Yan Shuangying coming on horseback on the mountain road.
Everyone looked overjoyed and hurried forward to greet them. When they got close, Chen Feng and Yan Shuangying reined in their reins and stopped.
"Haha, Brother Chen, you are finally here."
Before Chen Feng got off his horse, Li Yunlong stepped forward and laughed enthusiastically,
Immediately afterwards, Zhao Gang, Xing Zhiguo and Wang Dehou also greeted Chen Feng.
After the two sides exchanged a few words, Li Yunlong rubbed his hands and asked: "Brother, with your intelligence capabilities, you should know that the old devil Miyano Michichi has been killed. When will we start collecting the goods?"
Chen Feng glanced at everyone. Zhao Gang, Xing Zhiguo and Wang Dehou also looked at him, full of expectation.
Then, Chen Feng pretended to look at his watch: "The time should be almost here. Brother Li, where is the delivery place?"
Li Yunlong was slightly startled: "Isn't it delivered by a transport plane?"
"Of course not." Chen Feng said with a slight smile, "It's the kind of helicopter that delivers cannons."
In this era, transport aircraft with a carrying capacity of more than 10 tons are considered to have good performance.
As the tank weighs dozens of tons, it must use later-generation transport aircraft, and each transport aircraft has a limited load capacity, which is a bit troublesome.
It would be better to use a helicopter to lift all the tanks over and transport them to their destination at once.
Although the lifting weight of the independently suspended Dragonfly helicopter is only a dozen tons.
However, the system will increase the lifting capacity of the helicopter. In short, the tanks will appear in front of them in a way that Li Yunlong and others can understand, rather than conjuring them out of thin air.
Li Yunlong thought for a while, laughed, and said: "Let's go to the shooting range in the back mountain!"
"Okay!" Chen Feng nodded.
