Chapter 553

At the beginning of the new year, the Lunar New Year is coming as scheduled.

Although it was a time of war, the atmosphere of the festival was not as great as imagined, but in the non-enemy-occupied areas, there were still many people busy preparing for the festival.

For the general public, the Spring Festival is the most important, grand and lively traditional festival of the Chinese nation, carrying the many wishes of the Chinese people for reunion, praying for blessings and pursuing a better and happy life.

Although shrouded in the haze of war, the conditions of the people are very poor, but still can't stop their desire and joy for the festival, even if they eat an extra bowl of rice on this day, wearing clothes that they are usually reluctant to wear are considered the New Year.

For this reason, Liao Mingyu deliberately gave the mining area and factories a holiday, and in addition to the front-line war zone, the large troops in the rear also had half a day of rest for recreation.

Liao Mingyu is also generous, as long as the people who work in the army or the industry to which the army belongs, everyone will receive a number of grains, canned food, candy and 3 half-opened New Year's red envelopes.

And for those big-headed soldiers, ordinary things can no longer be satisfied, such as cigarettes and chocolates are hard currency, anyway, the supply of the old American side is sufficient.

With Stilwell's strong support, 60% of the international aid has entered Myanmar, and there is no weapons and equipment, and now it can produce it itself, and the key logistics food is an eye-opener.

The United States is worthy of being the country that attaches the most importance to logistics and is also the most capable of maintaining huge supplies in World War II.

They can pour as much chocolate, Logan bars, canned meat, and Spam luncheon meat as they want. In particular, everyone is tired of eating luncheon meat, and even provides a certain amount of cigarettes, candy and cola, which also makes Liao Mingyu cry out for all evil capitalism.

Because it is an aid material, although it is not at the same level as their own supply in terms of quality, in the eyes of the Chinese soldiers who are used to living a hard life in difficult conditions, this is not as good as the days of the landlord.

The dazzling array of food is dazzling, and those who don't know it think that this is something specially prepared for officers, but they don't think that it is all for ordinary soldiers.

After the last battle, Liao Mingyu tried his best to ask Stilwell for ammunition and food, and the logistics materials that could have been supplied to two or three group armies were all brought over by him, which is also the reason why he was able to be arrogant during the festival.

"I'm in the city tower, watching the mountain ~ view... Ears hear outside the city... Chaos is coming..."

As soon as Liao Mingyu came to the door of the command room of the military headquarters with a cigarette in his mouth, he heard a sound of Peking opera from inside.

The guard at the door was about to salute, but he raised his hand to stop him.

Looking through the crack in the hidden door, well... A gramophone was playing the Peking Opera Empty City Plan, and Meng was annoyed that this guy got together with a few combat staff officers, sitting on a chair while smoking and drinking tea while shaking his head, and listening to the music leisurely and leisurely.

These stinky boys, although today is Chinese New Year's Eve, they can't be so slack in the command headquarters.

The corners of Liao Mingyu's mouth raised slightly, pushed the door in and coughed pretendically.

"Ahem!"

"Junza?"

"I've seen the sir!"

Several people hurriedly got up and saluted Liao Mingyu in a panic, and the cigarette in someone's hand had not had time to be pinched off, so they had to hide it behind him, just like a migrant worker who was caught by the boss at work.

"Take a break..."

Liao Mingyu walked in expressionlessly, his eyes stayed on the gramophone and teacup on the table for a while, and then he said: "Camel brand, black tea, yo good, as well as beef jerky and canned luncheon meat..."

Meng was annoyed and quickly took out a cigarette and handed it over, and said with a hippie smile: "Hehe... Junzuo, don't scold us, how can this get into your eyes, I wonder if this is not a year, what is it... I didn't have anything to do today, so I relaxed a little with my brothers. ”

Liao Mingyu didn't reply immediately, but stepped forward and fiddled with it a few times, and blurted out: "The gramophone is very good, it's still a British product, where did you get it?" It's so boring to just drink tea and smash your mouth, or I'll give you a bottle of good wine? ”

"Hi... How can it be, these phonographs are all from the military supplies that Lao Mei transported over last time, and it is useless to put them in the warehouse to eat ashes, so they simply moved them over. Forget about the wine, the military regulations can't be broken. Who's... Hurry up and put away the things on the table, what is this like? We're still on duty! ”

Meng was annoyed and realized that the other party was not good, so he immediately changed his words and reprimanded his subordinates.

"Do you still know that on duty, an acting chief of staff of the military department is not doing anything at the headquarters, but takes the lead in fishing, do you want to report to the gendarmerie? Believe it or not, Lao Tzu removed you! ”

Liao Mingyu, who is playful, pretended to teach a lesson, wanting to take the opportunity to scare this cynical guy on weekdays.

"Jun Zuo is angry, this New Year should be precious, but don't stir up the liver fire, the color is not good."

"The officer on duty has to be the officer on duty, if everyone is like you, how can they fight? Hmph, it seems that I am usually too indulgent to you..."

As soon as these words came out, Meng was so frightened that he hurriedly begged for mercy: "Don't mind, Junza!" You know it's not easy... Usually I don't have credit and hard work, I am on duty when people are on vacation, and I don't have to be rewarded, but I have to be..."

"Gotta gotcha... Stop, don't glam with me here! ”

Liao Mingyu was angry and stopped the other party's chatter, if this guy let him open the chatterbox, he can give you a chat from day to night.

He casually found a chair and sat down, looked up at the dejected guys, and almost laughed.

Since the goal of knocking on the mountain and shaking the tiger has been achieved, Liao Mingyu does not want to continue to pretend to be forced, and then preached to several people: "For the sake of the New Year, it is not an example!" A few of you can also go for a pastime when the brothers who are changing shifts come back, why do you have to be here to defy Lao Tzu? ”

"Yes, yes, Junzuo is right."

"We don't dare anymore..."

A few people were amnesty, and hurriedly "wrote" the guarantee, Meng was annoyed and immediately took out a lighter to help him light a cigarette, and the flattering appearance made Liao Mingyu can't help but have goosebumps.

"Okay, okay, why isn't Commander Fan at the base, where is he going?"

After the two battles of Ringanqiang and Chiang Mai, Siam, the troops entered a period of rest and recuperation, and the days have been relatively calm in recent days, and the three infantry divisions and two brigades directly under the 88th Army are in full swing to prepare for war and supply, as well as the training and run-in of new recruits.

In addition to the renewal of new weapons and equipment, several new units were formed in addition to the main forces, among which the air force units.
