Chapter 353 Commander-in-Chief Zhang treats guests
Zhang Yunfei didn't expect Captain Sun of the New Fifth Regiment to react so much. Zhang Yunfei looked at Captain Sun's shocked expression and couldn't help but smile.
Zhang Yunfei thought to himself that the Eighth Route Army at this time was relatively backward and lacked training, and its combat effectiveness was much worse than that of the Japanese, and it was often several times more people before it started a war with the Japanese.
Now, it is really difficult for the Eighth Route Army, which lacks heavy weapons, to attack the county town. What's more, the ones stationed in the county town are still a Japanese corps, with thousands of people.
Zhang Yunfei thought for a moment, smiled slightly, and comforted him: "Captain Sun, don't worry, I will mobilize a force from our 36th Army at that time, and you can cooperate with us to attack the county town."
Upon hearing this, Commander Sun hurriedly said happily: "Chief, if this is the case, that's great. We will do our best to cooperate with you in the battle."
In fact, Captain Sun had long wanted to attack the county town. The Japanese in the county often came out and went to towns around the county town to sweep, burn, kill, loot, and do all kinds of evil. Many ordinary people died tragically under the Japanese's butcher's knife.
In July this year, a squadron in the county town was going out for a sweep and was very beastly. He slaughtered the village and brutally killed more than 100 people in a small village. The women in the village were raped and killed by the Japanese.
Commander Sun, who came with the troops, finally slowed down one step later. When Sun's delegation arrived at this village where fires were everywhere and corpses were everywhere, the Japanese had already gone away.
Seeing so many ordinary people killed by the Japanese, Commander Sun and the soldiers' eyes were red. Their liver and gallbladder were split. Commander Sun roared to the sky with grief and anger, and shouted to the sky: "If you don't take this revenge, you won't be a human being."
Therefore, when Zhang Yunfei proposed to send troops to attack the county town and cooperate by himself, Commander Sun was full of surprises and expressed his full cooperation.
Seeing Captain Sun agreeing readily, Zhang Yunfei smiled happily.
After a few more greetings, Captain Sun suddenly said, "Chiefs, it's 12 o'clock soon, let's have a meal first. Our cooking team is already preparing lunch, but our group has limited conditions and there is nothing better to entertain everyone. I'm really embarrassed."
Zhang Yunfei, Deng Wenping and Xiao Zhengguang next to him looked at each other and smiled. Comrade Xiao Zhengguang smiled and said, "Captain Sun, hurry up and send the soldiers to the town or the homes of fellow villagers to buy a few fat pigs. Commander-in-Chief Zhang treats the guests at noon today. Everyone is complacent of Commander-in-Chief Zhang and everyone improves the food."
Seeing his deputy chief of staff say this, Commander Sun was not easy to shirk. He spoke a little politely to Zhang Yunfei, and then shouted to the outside of the door: "Chief, come in quickly."
As soon as Captain Sun's voice fell, an Eighth Route Army soldier came in, stood attentive, saluted everyone and said loudly: "Hello, leader! Hello, leader! What instructions do you have, commander?"
Sun Tuan said happily: "A row leader, take your people with you, hurry up and buy a few fat pigs in the town or fellow villagers' homes. At noon today, everyone will enjoy the light of Commander-in-Chief Zhang and improve their food."
Hearing this, the row leader was very surprised and thought to himself, it's great, I can eat meat. It seems that I haven't eaten meat for more than a month. Thinking of this, the row leader even secretly swallowed his saliva.
Zhang Yunfei's guard opened his backpack and took out several oceans from it. Each of them was 100 oceans and 6 oceans, which was exactly 600 oceans.
When handing over the ocean to Commander Sun, Zhang Yunfei said: "Captain Sun, go and buy 5 big fat pigs and two thousand kilograms of grain so that the soldiers in the regiment can eat meat and eat a full meal. Those soldiers who are building the airport cannot forget them and arrange for the soldiers to deliver lunch."
In this era, the fat pigs in this era usually only have more than 100 kilograms. Unlike now, when feed is fed, ordinary pigs can grow to two or three hundred kilograms. The New Fifth Regiment has nearly 2,000 soldiers. If everyone wants to eat meat, they really have to buy 5 big fat pigs.
The purchasing power of the ocean is still very strong, and 600 oceans should be enough.
Sun Tuan, who had taken over the ocean, smiled on his face.
Zhang Yunfei added: "Captain Sun, if it is not enough, tell me."
Captain Sun hurriedly said, "Chief, thank you, enough, enough."
There are basically only these oceans brought by Zhang Yunfei. Zhang Yunfei only has dozens of oceans and a few gold bars on him. If it is not enough, Zhang Yunfei is preparing to use gold bars. The gold bars brought by Zhang Yunfei are planning to use them outside.
Half an hour later, there were bursts of pig cries in front of the kitchen door of the kitchen team of the regiment headquarters, and several soldiers were busy boiling water and killing pigs.
A few large pots were temporarily set up in the open space in front of the kitchen door of the kitchen. The red flames licked the bottom of the pot, and the water in the pot began to boil, and the boiling heat came out.
Many soldiers from the first row of guards in the New Fifth Regiment were also helping the kitchen squad of the regiment headquarters. Some of the other soldiers were carrying the other two fat pigs and some grain they bought to the nearby Second and Third Battalions stations.
The cooking squad of the regiment headquarters left three fat pigs. After lunch, they also had to send some to the soldiers who were building the airport. Now, there are two large pots in the kitchen of the cooking squad, cooking, and the smell of rice was floating out of it.
In the kitchen, there were also some soldiers kneading the noodles there, waiting for a while to prepare big dumplings with pork stuffing. Outside the kitchen, it was even more lively. The three big fat pigs had been slaughtered.
The soldiers were tearing the fat pigs there, and the entire kitchen was filled with laughter and joy. Everyone was full of energy. Some soldiers were already there to do things and chat happily.
A soldier who was slaughtering pigs said to an old Eighth Route Army soldier next to him: "Squad leader, we haven't killed pigs for a long time, and we haven't eaten meat for a long time. I remember that during the Chinese New Year last year, our regiment killed a bite of pigs. The pig was much smaller than this one. At that time, I only ate two pieces of meat."
Another soldier in the kitchen squad also said: "Squad leader, look at how fat this pig is. The meat must taste very fragrant. With so many fat pigs, we can enjoy it this time." After that, the soldier swallowed his saliva.
The squad leader of the kitchen squad heard everyone's discussion and smiled. He was very happy and said with a smile: "Comrades, today I heard that Commander-in-Chief Zhang is treating you. Everyone should do it well. Wait a moment, I will cook a few special dishes to Commander-in-Chief Zhang and the others."
Although the soldiers were chatting happily, their hands were not slow. The first fat pig was immediately dismantled eight pieces, and the pork was chopped off one by one. The chopped pork was immediately sent to the kitchen and cut it into two fingers wide, probably one or two taels and pieces of pork.
Two or three soldiers, carrying a large pot of cut pork, poured it into the large pots on the open space outside. Not long after, the entire cooking class was filled with the tempting smell of meat.
In the kitchen, the kitchen squad leader brought several soldiers to make braised pork there. The soldiers who made dumplings also chopped the meat filling and quickly wrapped the dumplings there.
At 1:30 noon, the New Fifth Regiment Headquarters opened meals on time. The soldiers only took one and a half hours to buy fat pigs and grain to prepare the meals, and the efficiency was still very high.
Today, comrades Zhang Yunfei, Deng Wenping, Liu Xing, Xiao Zhengguang and other comrades, the leader of the New Fifth Regiment, the political commissar, the chief of staff, the deputy leader, etc., were sitting at a table. On the table, there were dishes that the kitchen squad leader himself fried, including braised pork, stewed meat, stir-fried fat intestines, pork liver, etc., and there were pork-filled dumplings and white rice.
When Zhang Yunfei and others were having lunch at the regiment headquarters, the soldiers who were building the airport were also preparing to have dinner in the north.
On the north of Jinsha Town, an airport covering a considerable area of airfield. With the efforts of nearly a thousand soldiers, the land has almost been leveled. In less than two days, the transport planes of the Flight Brigade can barely take off and land.
The soldiers who worked hard for a morning were resting there and waiting for the meal. Every day at about 1:00 noon, there were comrades from the kitchen team who came here with food.
But today, it was almost two o'clock. The comrades from the cooking squad had not yet arrived. Many soldiers were already holding their own bowls and waiting for the meal to start anxiously.
Seeing that the comrades in the kitchen could not wait for a long time, a thin young soldier said to his platoon leader: "Platform leader, I am almost starving to death. I have no strength now, and my limbs are so hungry that I have weakened."
The platoon leader of the Eighth Route Army was a little hungry, but he still laughed and scolded: "I said, Comrade Xiao Huang, didn't we have dinner in the morning? This morning, each of us ate two steamed buns and a bowl of porridge?"
The soldier named Xiao Huang smiled bitterly and said, "Platform leader, you don't know. The steamed buns in the kitchen are getting smaller and smaller, and the porridge is getting thinner and thinner. I feel that I am getting less and less full. Every time I finish my meal, I will be hungry again in less than two or three hours."
The platoon leader of the Eighth Route Army looked at Xiao Huang, who was only fifteen or sixteen years old and was a childish one year old, and he also sighed in his heart, "Most of the boy, I'm going to eat to death. Xiao Huang is in his health and it's normal that he can't eat enough."
Amid everyone's anticipation, the comrades in the kitchen finally appeared. The soldiers found that there seemed to be a few more comrades in the kitchen. In the past, the top comrades in the kitchen came here with the prepared meals, but today, the number of comrades coming here has doubled, with at least nearly 20 comrades.
When the soldiers saw the comrades in the kitchen came with food, the soldiers cheered. Although many soldiers were wondering why so many comrades in the kitchen came all at once today, when everyone saw the food coming, many of the soldiers who were already hungry didn't think so much about it.
