Early the next morning, Zhou Weihan and Zhao Gang set off from the brigade headquarters on war horses. More than 20 pack horses were left at the brigade headquarters with a wave of the brigade commander's hand.
"Old Zhou, where are we going? Why don't we go back to the New Second Regiment?" Zhao Gang looked at the wrong direction and asked doubtfully.
"Don't worry, let's go to the new group first." Zhou Weihan said mysteriously.
"Li Yunlong's new group?" Zhao Gang asked.
"Not bad, why, you seem to be very interested in this guy Li Yunlong." Zhou Weihan said with a smile.
"Captain Li is number one in the brigade and even in the headquarters. I am very familiar with him and have admired him for a long time," Zhao Gang said in a formal tone.
"I hope he will welcome you." Zhou Weihan said, but what he was thinking about was that if Li Yunlong didn't give you a kick, he wouldn't be called Li Yunlong.
"drive"
At the Shashiyu New Regiment Headquarters, "Captain, Commander Zhou of the New Second Regiment is here again, and he has brought our political commissar with him." Huzi reported to Li Yunlong.
That day Zhou Weihan and Li Yunlong were drinking. Huzi was outside the house and heard everything clearly, so he knew that a political commissar was coming to the new regiment.
"What? Mother brought a white-faced scholar? If you don't see her, just say I'm not here and I went to inspect the work in the first battalion." Li Yunlong frowned, and the wine in his mouth was no longer interesting.
"Captain, why don't we put the wine away, otherwise it won't be good for the political commissar to see?" Huzi said a little worried.
"I'm still the leader of the new regiment. When will it be your fucking turn to take care of me? Get out of here and don't cause trouble in front of me." Li Yunlong slapped the table and shouted.
Since Zhou Weihan and others had been here before, the sentinels of the new regiment did not stop them and had already reached the gate of the regiment headquarters yard.
"Captain Zhou, our commander is not here and has gone to the first battalion to inspect the work." Huzi hurriedly caught up and said.
"Okay, you go back, I'll wait for him at the regiment headquarters." Zhou Weihan said and started to walk into the courtyard.
"Hey, Captain Zhou, you..." Seeing Huzi's hesitating tone, how could Zhou Weihan not understand what Li Yunlong was thinking.
"Okay, I won't embarrass you."
Zhou Weihan shouted into the yard: "Li Yunlong, your damn old comrade is here, and you don't come out to pick him up."
Li Yunlong has also been inside the house watching the situation outside, but has no intention of going out.
After all, Hu Zi did not stop the two of them. Zhou Weihan opened the door curtain and saw Li Yunlong sitting cross-legged on the kang, drinking a small drink.
"Hey, didn't I go to the First Battalion to inspect the work of Commander Li? He came back very quickly, and he was already drunk." Zhou Weihan said sarcastically without mercy.
"Huzi, how did you get the job of being a guard? You just let people in casually." Li Yunlong shouted to Huzi outside the door.
Li Yunlong didn't pay attention to Zhou Weihan. With a sullen face, he picked up the bowl and took a sip of wine, taking the opportunity to glance at it.
I saw a fair-looking guy standing next to Zhou Weihan. He looked like an intellectual at first glance.
Li Yunlong thought to himself, well, this white-faced scholar is our political commissar and has run away. He doesn't do anything serious and does a lot of nonsense. He only knows how to talk.
As for Zhao Gang, as soon as he entered the room, he saw a man in his thirties sitting on the kang drinking wine. His hair was messy, his face hadn't been washed for several days, and his clothes and sleeves were all black.
Zhao Gang's face looked a little ugly at this time. He was insulted by Li Yunlong for no reason. The key was that Captain Li violated discipline and drank alcohol at noon.
However, Zhao Gang then thought about it and realized that he was the political commissar of the New Second Regiment after all and had no control over the New Regiment, so his expression softened slightly.
Seeing this situation, Zhou Weihan said: "Okay, don't be stunned, I will introduce it to you."
"This is the famous new regiment leader of our brigade, Li Yunlong."
"This is our political commissar Zhao Gang," Zhou Weihan introduced to Li Yunlong.
Zhao Gang took the initiative to step forward, stretched out his hand and said, "Hello, Captain Li. I am Zhao Gang, political commissar of the new second regiment. I have long admired my name."
"What, political commissar of the new second regiment?" Li Yunlong, who was holding a bowl, was stunned.
"Hey, political commissar Zhao, welcome, welcome, come on, come and sit inside." Li Yunlong didn't even wear any shoes. He jumped down from the kang and held Zhao Gang's hand with both hands. It was like making love.
Zhao Gang was a little confused by the contrast between Li Yunlong before and after.
"You see, this guy is a dog-faced guy. He will change at will. You will get used to it as time goes by." Zhou Weihan said from the side.
"Go, go, go, Lao Zhao, don't pay attention to him, let's sit inside." Li Yunlong called Lao Zhao one after another, very affectionately.
"Li Yunlong, you kid, don't be ungrateful. I saved you this time, otherwise you won't be able to do it in the future," Zhou Weihan said unceremoniously.
"Zhou Weihan, what does this have to do with you? This is obviously the brigade commander's arrangement." Li Yunlong said with a smile.
"Captain Li, why can't I understand what you two are talking about?" Zhao Gang still doesn't know why.
"Zhou Weihan explained: "Two days ago, the brigade commander called to arrange a political commissar for the new regiment. You know this."
"I know about this. I was originally sent to the New First Regiment, but later the brigade commander said that the New Second Regiment had just been established, so he asked me to join the New Second Regiment."
"Since the day of the fight, this kid has been holding back his anger. He thought you were a political commissar sent by the brigade headquarters. But as soon as he entered the door, he was intimidated."
Li Yunlong looked at Zhou Weihan and Zhao Gang, talking to each other, and said: "Haha, don't tell me, I think you two are a good match. This time the brigade commander has chosen the right person."
"Come on, Lao Zhao, I'll fill it up for you." He said, taking a bowl and pouring wine for Zhao Gang.
"Captain Li, drinking is against discipline." Zhao Gang quickly stopped him.
"That's right, Huzi, take away the wine quickly, take out the Japanese canned beef, let the cooking team eat it for two bites, and quickly bring it to our political commissar Zhao." Li Yunlong drank up the remaining wine in the bowl and said to
He said to Hu Zi outside the door.
"Yes, leader."
"I'm talking about Li Yunlong, I came today with the intention of doing a business partnership with you and making a fortune together. If you do this, forget it." Zhou Weihan looked at Li Yunlong who was ignoring him.
"Business? What kind of trade?" Li Yunlong suddenly became more energetic. If you want to say this, I won't be sleepy.
"Haha, I know that your old Zhou is still thinking about this poor relative of ours, and you will never forget our old Li even if something good happens." Li Yunlong said with a smile. "Our New Second Regiment has done something with the little devils from Wuyi County during this period.
We did some small business and purchased a lot of military supplies that were urgently needed in the base area."
With that said, Zhou Weihan took the map next to him, unfolded it on the table and said: "Look, the base area is in the west, the New Second Regiment is in the east, Wuyi County in between is on the north side, and Wu'an County is on the south side."
"This is on the main road to Jinzhong. It was originally called Sanjiaji. After the Japs came, they built the Liubao stronghold. The Japs from Wu'an County were stationed here. People came and went every day. The Japs from Wu'an County made a lot of money.
Isamu Terauchi, the captain of the Japanese First Regiment stationed in Wuyi County, was very dissatisfied with the situation, and the two sides had a lot of friction." Zhou Weihan pointed to the Liubao stronghold on the map and said.
"As long as we secure the Liubao stronghold, the passage to the base will be opened in the future."
"Old Zhou, let's not talk about how many troops the Japs have here. Even if we take over the Japs' stronghold, we will build up the front legs and rebuild the back legs. There is no way the Japs will just leave this strategic location to us.
." Li Yunlong felt that Zhou Weihan's idea was a bit whimsical.
