After the first battle of Lijiapo, in the face of the menacing little devils, all units of the Eighth Route Army moved their stations.

In the Lingyang area of Shanxi, the independent regiment was stationed in Liujia Village, which was more than 30 miles away from the headquarters.

This time, relying on the seizures from the devils, the independent regiment became much richer. Not to mention anything else, the whole group put on thick cotton clothes, and this winter is much better. A large number of guns and ammunition were also seized, and the dream of a gun for each of the independent regiments was realized.

Of course, this is indispensable to Li Yunlong's strength, after all, fighting the Yamazaki brigade, the brothers of the friendly army have also contributed a lot of strength. They are asking for a piece of the pie, and it is quite reasonable.

It's just that Li Yunlong is also an old man, and the new regiment with strong soldiers and horses has been replaced by an independent regiment with a poor and white army, and he is the most anxious in his heart.

Commander Cheng of the 772nd Regiment wanted to talk to him about the conditions and ask for some benefits from him. He didn't care about his comrades-in-arms at all, he instantly turned his face and didn't recognize anyone, and forcibly left the black face that others scolded.

The other friendly commanders were also well aware of his temperament and didn't want to quarrel with him, a guy who turned his face and didn't recognize anyone. So he took the complaint to the brigade commander and asked the brigade commander to reason.

Such a good opportunity for extortion, if the brigade commander can let it go, then it will not be the brigade commander.

As soon as he opened his mouth, he wanted to seize all the mortars and ammunition, and it took Li Yunlong a long time to talk about half of the price, and he still felt a little cheap in his heart.

It's really the brigade commander who is used to opening his mouth, and he has to be grateful to Dade if he can leave half of it. The last time a cavalry battalion of horses was captured, and it was not yet warm. was eaten by the brigade commander by two-thirds in one bite, and Li Yunlong could only form a cavalry company aggrieved in the end, and he still remembered this!

The fact that the Japanese devils burned, killed, and looted is well known. In the eyes of the common people in the base areas, the Eighth Route Army is the people's soldiers and fights devils for the common people.

The Independent Regiment was warmly welcomed in Liujia Village, and the people vacated rooms for the soldiers of the Eighth Route Army to stay, and the young men also enthusiastically signed up to join the army, injecting a fresh blood into the Independent Regiment.

The third company suffered relatively large losses in the last battle, and Yuan Pengfei also had an appetite for Li Yunlong, so this time the personnel replenishment was particularly careful.

The company, which originally had only 87 people left, was suddenly replenished to 126 people, and it directly became full. made several other company commanders envious, and secretly said that he had shit luck and was treated differently by the regiment commander.

Together with the first and second companies belonging to the first battalion, there are also many complaints about him. Because their two companies are not yet full. Let the little brother who is in the back of the third company take the lead, how can they be convinced!

After a busy day, Yuan Pengfei and deputy company commander Chen Qiao sat on the kang in the evening, holding some peanuts, drinking sweet potato wine brewed by the villagers, and chatting.

Chen Qiao flicked the flowers, and said while chewing: "Old Yuan, you are this." ”

He gestured with a thumbs.

"I haven't heard of any great achievements in you before, but this time you showed me a hand, and I couldn't believe it. If it weren't for the head of the regiment himself, who would have known that you were so powerful?

And the whole group knows your name, except for our Zhao political commissar Shenji, it is you who is desperate Saburo.

This time, our company was able to recruit so many recruits, in addition to the care of the regiment commander, and more importantly, they admired your prestige. If we weren't even full, it would be no problem to recruit him another thirty or fifty.

In this way, the first and second companies were stained with our light. Many people heard that we belonged to the same battalion and felt that it was closer, so they joined them. Lao Yuan, you have become a golden signboard, eat with fame! ”

Yuan Pengfei gradually integrated into this era, and in the face of Chen Qiao, a brother who stirred a horse spoon in a pot, he also let go of his initial vigilance.

He said proudly: "I said that these soldiers look at me strangely, it turns out that this is because of this!" If you don't say it, I really don't know about this, but I didn't expect my old Yuan to become famous. ”

"Then you should drink one, I respect you for this bowl."

Chen Qiao touched the bowl and raised his neck to drink it all in one gulp. I don't know if I want to respect him, or if I'm hungry for wine.

Shaking his head, Yuan Pengfei drank it all, and the hot sweet potato wine burned down his throat to his stomach, warm.

He took the initiative to lift the bottle and fill the two wine bowls. said with emotion: "Lao Chen, people are afraid of being famous, pigs are afraid of being strong, we have even reaped the benefits, and we can be supervised by everyone."

This has increased by a third of the recruits, and if the training is not good, the brothers will definitely have to see the jokes. We can't lose that person in the third company. ”

Chen Qiao: "Hey, Lao Yuan, what do you have in mind, just say it!" I'm sure I'm fine. ”

Yuan Pengfei smiled and said, "Wait a minute, Lao Chen, do you know what I admire most about your two skills?" ”

Chen Qiao swallowed peanuts and said with drunken eyes: "What can I have, is it my stabbing technique?" In this regard, your old Yuan is not bad! Marksmanship? Then I'll have to learn from you. I don't have anything to admire, do I? ”

Yuan Pengfei smiled and said, "Old Chen, don't belittle yourself, you learned this sword technique from the battalion commander." Our battalion commander's knife technique, in the whole regiment, just can't win the first place, and it is also the top three.

Your old Chen has learned the skills of the battalion commander by seven or eight points, and the white-knuckle battle is also in the top ten in the whole regiment. This time, I heard the second platoon commander say that you hacked four devils to death when you were fighting a white-knuckle battle, and two of them were hacked to death by you in one against two, and you hacked them to death with less accumulation, which is more than enough to be my master. ”

As soon as he said this, Yuan Pengfei thought of Liu Ke, who he blocked a bayonet. If he also has this ability, then Liu Ke may be able to survive.

Chen Qiao also heard about Liu Ke and knew that Yuan Pengfei felt uncomfortable. Persuaded: "Old Yuan, don't be too sad. Liu Ke's revenge, the revenge of our soldiers, and the revenge of the common people in the base area, we will have to avenge it sooner or later.

In this way, I will teach you some basic skills first, and when you have learned almost, you can go to the battalion commander to learn. After practicing the knife technique, I turned around and split him two more little devils. ”

Yuan Pengfei wiped his face, picked up the wine bowl and said, "I respect you and those sacrificed soldiers in this bowl." ”

"Yes, to the soldiers who died."

The wine bowls collided, and the hot sweet potato wine burned the stomach, and the troubles in the brain also went away.

Lifting his spirit, he said: "Lao Chen, not only do I have to learn this knife technique, but we also have to organize people to learn it." You know the broadsword team of the 29th Army! ”

Chen Qiao suddenly laughed, "Old Yuan, this is not a big deal, do you need to go around this kind of pass with me?" The battalion commander is from the Broadsword team, can I not know?

If you want to organize people to learn, I have no opinion and you can teach, but where to find so many big blades, one or two is not useful. ”

Yuan Pengfei waved his hand and said indifferently: "You don't have to worry about this, I will pick some fighters with martial arts skills and form two classes." When the time comes, you give me a good training for them, and make sure that they have the ability to cut down the devil one-on-one, and I don't want to suffer this loss in the future. ”

He had already figured out that there were still quite a few soldiers in the regiment who used to use cold weapons, and there were dozens of broadswords. Now these fighters have guns, and some cold weapons have been eliminated.

Battalion commander Zhang Dabiao was born in the broadsword team, and he must be happy to see the establishment of the broadsword team. He was cheeky to beg for it, and it was no problem to pick twenty or thirty big knives.

After talking about the establishment of the broadsword team, the two of them touched the wine bowl and drank it all again.

Yuan Pengfei said with a smile: "Lao Chen, I admire your second ability, which is that you will have a relationship with the masses. Do you know? You have made a lot of contributions to these bottles of soju. ”

Chen Qiao's eyes widened, and he asked in surprise, "What do you say?" ”

Yuan Pengfei said with a slight meaning: "That time, the head of the regiment said to invite me to drink, and I went after this busy time." But the head of the regiment just didn't mention it. When I came back, I wondered if the head of the regiment was not an untrustworthy person, and if he had wine, even if he had little, he would have to reward me with two sips.

It's not that you and the fellows got a few bottles of sweet potato roast, I took the wine, and secretly gave it to the head of the regiment while the political commissar was not paying attention.

Hey, don't say it, the head of the regiment opened it and took a sip on the spot, and rewarded me with two sips of wine. Otherwise, no matter how much the head of the regiment appreciates me, it is impossible to take care of us so much, Lao Chen, your two bottles of wine have made a great contribution. ”

"I see, I should drink one."

Chen Qiao really didn't expect that there would be such a story here. He just came to Liujia Village and wanted to mingle with the local people and lay a good foundation for his future work and life.

For this reason, he led the soldiers to carry water for the villagers, clean the yard, collect firewood, repair the roof, and did all the tedious chores, and finally let the villagers recognize him.

His name Chen Qiao is in the ears of his fellow villagers, and he is also in the top three. You must know that in front of him is the famous Li Yunlong. Because of the blessing of countless legendary achievements, the fellows are the first to remember.

And political commissar Zhao Gang is most known for his kindness, and he is basically the one who comes forward when the army deals with the villagers, and the villagers are willing to look for him when they have something. Therefore, it is really not an easy thing for Chen Qiao to win the third place most recognized by his fellow villagers.

However, he did not waste this trust, and when he took the seizures he got from the devils and bartered them fairly, he always made the villagers satisfied.

During this period, a fellow wanted to trade with home-brewed sweet potato roast, and he thought of Yuan Pengfei's advice, so he bought it by the way. Unexpectedly, it also played a big role.

Drinking and drinking, the two of them drank too much, Chen Qiao agreed to a lot of things in a daze, and Yuan Pengfei also let go of his worries and got drunk.
