"Something? Call me here! Li Nian looked at Hu Bin and asked, not knowing what Hu Bin had to say to himself.
"I'm going to give you a debriefing!" Hu Bin said to Li Nian with a smile.
", I don't have time to joke with you, I'm too busy!" Li Nian heard it and scolded Hu Bin, he knew that Hu Bin was joking with him.
"Seriously, I want to take out a sum of money and send it to the soldiers below while I am celebrating the New Year, do you think it's okay?" Hu Bin said to Li Nian.
"You, send money to the soldiers below? You are crazy? It's your own money, and you still send it out! In the morning, he also said that he didn't think he had a lot of money, but now it's good, and he started to scatter money? What happened to you? Li Nian heard it, looked at Hu Bin and asked.
"No, you think, although this money is indeed given to me by the United States, but you must also know that I relied on the money that the soldiers below fought in exchange for the war, and in my money, there is a share of the soldiers, I don't take it out, no! I can't help it! Hu Bin said to Li Nian.
"Get out, you should take it, the soldiers are all double salaries, and we will also reward the soldiers below for the trophies we are fighting now, there are already a lot, you know? If the country knows about it, it must not be envied to death.
Do you know how much does it cost a month for a soldier who has been in the army for more than a year? More than 80, if you count the bonus, there are other small loot for money, more than 100 a month, 3 months' salary in the top country, not bad, I don't agree with this matter, there is no reason for you to take the money out, one yard to one yard, no! Li Nian heard it and immediately rejected Hu Bin's proposal.
"Hey, listen to me, Lao Li, I'll tell you the truth, although the casualties of the troops to the United States are not big, but there are also some casualties. Xiang Feng, as you know, just commanded alone, and he felt bad when he saw so many casualties.
I just thought, give him some money, let him give some money to the soldiers below him, give some to the families of the soldiers who died, and pay off some conscience debts, that's how I thought, after all, they don't have such a high income.
The money is in place by the state, but they can't get over it on their conscience, and I can't get over it myself, I can't help but think about it, isn't it Lao Li? Hu Bin looked at Li Nian and said.
"Hey!" Li Nian heard it, sighed, and then sat there and thought about it.
"You also know, my income is very high, although I have donated a lot of money to the universities in China, but there are still a lot of them, I think, so that each soldier can get 50 yuan, whether it is the wounded or the soldiers, throw away our troops, the rest is mine, I will take more than 10 million out, okay?
Lao Li, I beg you for this matter, be accommodating, and I will also send a telegram to the headquarters and headquarters to report this matter. Okay? Hu Bin looked at Li Nian and said.
"Hey, begging for money, you're still the first, hey!" Li Nian was still thinking there.
He doesn't want Hu Bin to take out the money, there is no such rule, the army is not Hu Bin's, it is the state, there is no reason to let Hu Bin take the money out, now Hu Bin is still an important cadre of the country, and he has contributed to the country I don't know how much.
He took more than 10 million out, for Hu Bin, it was really a small amount of money, but not for the troops, the reason is not compliant, the troops are national, not Hu Bin's personal!
"Lao Li, what about the money, I'll give it to you, you send it, except for Xiang Feng who knows, I won't let anyone know, don't worry, don't embarrass you!" Hu Bin looked at Li Nian and said.
"Xiaobin, this matter, hey, I don't know how to say you, I can understand you, and I believe you, but you said that you have money, can you keep it for yourself, can you keep some for your wife and children?
What are you doing, you have a little money, you just want to spend it, and you don't spend it yourself, let others spend it for you, I really don't know what to say about you! Li Nian looked at Hu Bin and said.
"Lao Li, I'm a person, I owe too much debt to my conscience, I don't dare to think about it, I can only say that most of the money I earn is spent on those people, asking for peace of mind, and a conscience to get by.
If it weren't for the country's troubles, I really wouldn't be a soldier, let alone a general, I'd rather be a soldier, if I were a soldier, I guarantee that I would kill more enemies than most people.
However, there is no way, at this point, sometimes, when I think of those sacrificed soldiers, some of whom are younger than me, I don't even know what life is like, and it is gone, and my heart hurts, it hurts.
I said to the commander-in-chief before, I said that after the war, I am no longer a general, and I am not a national cadre, I will do business, I will make money, and I will make money to help the families of those soldiers who died with me and pay off their debts! Hu Bin said to Li Nian.
"This is not good, you are wrong to think so!" When Li Nian heard it, he immediately shook his head and said.
"How is it wrong? I can only pay this debt! Hu Bin looked at Li Nian and said puzzled.
"You are young and capable, you should build the country more prosperous and strong, so that you can be worthy of those sacrificed soldiers, instead of thinking about doing business, if you want to do business, the country will have one less talent, and you will lose a lot because of small things." Li Nian looked at Hu Bin and said.
"I've thought about it, but I can't convince myself, hey, let's not talk about this, let's talk about it later, who knows if I can live until the end of the war, and it's not good to say about the war!" Hu Bin smiled bitterly and said.
"Okay, you take the money out, I'll report to the commander, you don't have to report. If you report, the commander will definitely scold you, not that you are doing something wrong, but that you are not rich or not.
You know, the commander-in-chief and the commander-in-chief all love you and want you to be well. Money, you have given a lot to the country, and you have earned a lot for the country, everyone knows it, let me tell you, the New Year is coming soon, you are still being scolded, how bad! Li Nian looked at Hu Bin and said.
"Hehe, thank you Lao Li, thank you!" Hu Bin heard it and said to Li Nian in thanks, he knew that if he took out the money, he would definitely be scolded!
"You, hey, I am convinced, I am convinced, there are few people who convince me, although I don't have the ability, but you can make me convinc, you are one!" Li Nian looked at Hu Bin and said with a smile.
"Thanks, by the way, you can stay at home for the next few days, I'm done talking to Marshall, I'm going to go to Detroit to see our troops, and then go to a few other places to see the soldiers." Hu Bin said to Li Nian.
"Okay, this is your business, you're going!" Li Nian nodded and said.
On Marshall's side, after Marshall saw the report sent by Stilwell, he immediately communicated with Roosevelt.
Now that they know that there is a problem on the Chinese side, it is up to Hu Bin, but it is not so easy to convince Hu Bin, because Hu Bin has never wanted to form a joint command before.
But now that the Chinese Yan'an side agreed, they had great hope in their hearts, so now Marshall and Roosevelt were sending telegrams one after another, and they were discussing ways to persuade Hu Bin.
"Send a telegram to His Excellency President Roosevelt, give Hu Bin money, it must be given, it is estimated that it must be calculated by the number of days, and it is necessary to calculate how much money is to kill the devil, and there are fewer casualties on our side, how much money, this must be made clear.
I suggest that Hu Bin pay 100,000 US dollars a day, and this time we will give him US dollars, and we don't have any Chinese currency now, and besides, we can't give it all to Hu Bin, and we have to import a lot of materials and ammunition.
Moreover, if we kill a soldier on the Japanese side, we will reward 20 dollars, and if we take the total number of prisoners and killed on the Japanese side, divide by 1.2, which is less than the number of our casualties, and one less, we will reward 50 dollars, I feel that is okay.
There are also his army commanders, I feel that they also have to give money, a corps commander 10,000 US dollars, a division commander 5,000 US dollars, a brigade commander 3,000 US dollars, a regiment commander 1,500 US dollars, a battalion commander 800 US dollars, a company commander 400 US dollars, and a platoon commander 200 US dollars.
As long as the joint command exists for a day, we will pay them, but the battle damage cannot be counted. After all, their soldiers, we also paid for the army! Marshall explained to a staff officer behind him, who was taking notes.
"Their material consumption is ours, I estimate that if Hu Bin is willing to help us fight, then this time, it will be a decisive battle! Hu Bin said that he could completely wipe out the Japanese troops on the Western Front, and I think it is still possible.
With Hu Bin's help, although we spent a lot of money, it was nothing compared to the lives of those soldiers and the victory of our country's battles. What we want now is that our generals can learn to fight with Hu Bin at close range, and we want to drive the Japanese troops out of the Americas, this is the key! Marshall said, standing there.
Soon, the telegram arrived at Roosevelt's office, and at this time he was very satisfied with the attitude of the Chinese side, he did not expect that the Chinese side would actually agree to set up a joint command.
Not only did he surprise, but his staff members were all unexpected, so those staff members now also admire China very much, they did not expect that China has such a broad mind, and now these people do not dare to say anything bad in front of Roosevelt, they are a little ashamed of themselves.
