Chapter 421 Boss: Zhou Weihan, you have really become a rich man
the next day.
Zhou Weihan got up early, had breakfast, cleaned up briefly, and said goodbye to Xing Zhiguo.
There will be no war around the Changzhi area in the short term. The national army is also working hard to consolidate its foundation and has no time to worry about other things. In addition, with Xing Zhiguo in command, Zhou Weihan can also go to the headquarters without worries.
After the Japanese troops withdrew, the Eighth Route Army headquarters returned to Zhuanbi Village, Panlong Town, in the hinterland of the Taihang Mountains. Two days later, the 129th Division also joined the headquarters.
Zhou Weihan went to the headquarters this time because the Eighth Route Army headquarters specially convened a "post-war summary meeting" for cadres from the Taiyue and Tainan military regions.
Originally, Zhou Weihan was accompanied by a transportation team composed of a regiment. Half of the supplies seized from the combat readiness warehouse of the 41st Japanese Division in Changzhi and on the battlefield were to be handed over to the headquarters.
However, Zhou Weihan was in a hurry to go to the meeting, so he had to take the first step under the protection of a cavalry platoon.
At around one o'clock that day, Zhou Weihan and his party arrived at the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army.
The meeting time was three o'clock in the afternoon. Zhou Weihan was not in a hurry and found the location of the cooking class with ease.
"You, Xiao Zhou, haven't you eaten yet?" Wu Tou, the leader of the cooking team, asked familiarly.
"No, I didn't come to you as soon as I arrived!" Zhou Weihan responded with a smile.
"Then you came at the right time. The chief of staff told me a long time ago that your meals have been prepared in advance!" Old Wu turned to the soldiers in the cooking class and shouted: "Quickly, take out the food from the pot.
!”
"Have Brigadier Chen from the Taiyue Military Region arrived?"
"Come here, Chen Geng always comes in time for the meal!" Old Wu Tou complained.
Lunch is steamed buns mixed with noodles, pickled cucumbers, and pickled peppers.
A group of dozens of people had eaten their stomachs in the morning and were already hungry after traveling all morning.
Zhou Weihan broke open the steamed bun, stuffed it with a pickled cucumber, and wolfed down the cold well water.
Old Wu Tou worked as a cook before joining the Red Army. Not to mention other dishes, he was really good at making pickled vegetables.
Pickled cabbage and pickled radish in winter, pickled cucumber and pickled pepper in summer.
Take this pickled pepper for example. When I was in Yanzhou, all the teachers and comrades said it was good after eating it.
"Hey, little one, slow down, slow down, there's more!"
Old Wu lit up a cigarette pot and smoked, watching a group of young men in their twenties eating with enthusiasm, always with a smile on his face.
"Old squad leader, the harvest in the base area is good today, isn't it?" Zhou Weihan asked.
"Well, chemical fertilizers have been used on the fields. Don't tell me, the effect is better than the fertilizers made by ourselves. The land planted by our cooking team has harvested 50 kilograms more wheat per acre this year. I heard
Did you make this thing?"
"Hey, it doesn't count. At most, I made a mistake and other comrades did it!"
"When you were in the cooking class, I knew you were capable. You college students have so many things in your heads!" Old Wu Tou narrowed his eyes as he spoke.
Zhou Weihan smiled and couldn't help but miss the comfortable days in the cooking class. This period of time was the most comfortable life he had since joining the army.
"Old squad leader, come with me to Tainan. When you get to my place, I will provide for you in your old age!" Zhou Weihan asked tentatively.
"That won't work. I'm leaving. The boss and the others don't have anything to eat. I have to watch them eat on time!" Old Wu immediately shook his head after hearing this.
When Zhou Weihan saw this, he didn't say much and motioned to the monk on the side to take out the contents of his robe.
Old Wu Tou looked at the two bottles of Fenjiu and a pack of cigarettes on the table, and immediately became anxious: "What are you doing? Our Eighth Route Army has discipline..."
Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Zhou Weihan: "Old squad leader, don't worry, our Eighth Route Army has discipline, but the Eighth Route Army is also a human being, not a stone, and it also has human feelings and family ties!"
"I specially brought it to the comrades in the cooking class to try it. Don't be reluctant to let others eat it in the end!"
Zhou Weihan stuffed the remaining steamed buns into his mouth, got up and walked to the office of the boss and others.
The monks on the side, Tian Defu, stood up quickly and were about to leave. Old Wu Tou stopped them: "I just ate two steamed buns and couldn't resist hunger. When I was your age, I caught up with white flour steamed buns and opened them."
Eat it on your belly, you can eat seven in one meal!”
"One person is taking two away!"
"Thank you, old squad leader!" The two monks grabbed two steamed buns and ran out of the courtyard of the cooking class.
Zhou Weihan was a very familiar face in the headquarters. After leaving the courtyard of the cooking team, many people greeted Zhou Weihan along the way.
"Lao Zhou, when will you go back to the headquarters to make a fuss about the cooking class? Dangdang, the comrades are all thinking about you!"
"What nonsense, do you think I still have less fat in my stomach?"
In the conference room of the headquarters.
There were many people sitting inside. Zhou Weihan looked around and saw that in addition to some comrades from the headquarters, there were also the brigade commander of the Taiyue Military Region and Chief of Staff Zhou.
To Zhou Weihan's surprise, among the comrades present were his old superiors, Commander Bo of the decisive column, and Liu Tianming, the leader of the 22nd Regiment.
Seeing Zhou Weihan enter the room, the deputy general staff officer couldn't help but joked: "When you come to the headquarters, you are familiar with the road, go to the cooking class to report first!"
"I've been wandering around on horseback all morning, and my morning meal has long been lost!" Zhou Weihan responded with a smile.
"Haha, here is a comrade who is rushing to get some food to eat!" Political Commissar D on the side patted the brigade commander on the shoulder and said.
Everyone present burst into laughter.
"Zhou Weihan, you must have made a fortune this time in Changzhi!" Teacher L asked.
"It's okay, not too much!" Zhou Weihan took out a list of materials to hand in from his pocket, and then handed it to the boss and others.
The boss took the list of supplies and looked at it carefully. There seemed to be nothing unusual on his face, but his face slowly turned red. After holding it in for a long time, he said: "Hey, good guy, we all thought that you made a fortune playing Changzhi, but we didn't expect it."
You really have become a rich man!"
"Thirty-six Type 92 heavy machine guns, fifty Type 96 light machine guns, 1.4 million rounds of various types of bullets, and 3,000 rounds of artillery shells..."
Before the boss finished speaking, everyone present looked at Zhou Weihan with eager eyes.
"My dear, you are really rich and powerful!" The brigade commander's envious eyes made him want to eat Zhou Weihan in one bite.
"Changzhi is the headquarters of the 41st Division of the Japanese Army. There is a separate war preparation warehouse in the city. There are countless supplies in it. I have to turn over the house!" Zhou Weihan said in a pretentious manner, as if he had really been there.
Same.
The materials seized by the Tainan Military Region this time, such as those of the 28th Regiment and the New Regiment, have not yet been calculated. The materials handed over to the headquarters are only about half of the materials seized by the independent detachment.
As a relatively independent secondary military region, the Tainan Military Region has considerable autonomy in terms of captured materials.
On the premise of ensuring the good development of its own troops, these military regions near the headquarters will hand over materials from time to time. If there is a major seizure, some materials will be handed over directly.
The Tainan Military Region has seized more than a dozen mountain artillery pieces this time, and they are all now incorporated into the artillery battalion. Zhou Weihan has already made up his mind to pay attention. That's why he used so many supplies to silence the boss and others.
"Where is the transportation team? How many troops are there to escort it?" the boss asked with concern.
"The first group is in charge of transportation. We are still on the way. We will probably arrive at night!"
