Liang Jian: Commander, save some for me

"Yes, more than 300 soldiers were captured by the Japanese. Perhaps, the number was much more than that. During that time, we don't know how many soldiers were killed by the Japanese! The Japanese must pay for this blood debt!" Lao Zhang gritted his teeth in anger as he spoke.

The Japanese captured their soldiers, but instead of treating them well, they abused them. This is truly despicable.

"Yeah! It's just a matter of time." Old Feng also nodded.

At this time, there was a movement on the radio station, and Lao Zhang quickly started to receive it, then took out the temporary code book for translation.

"What did the boss say?!" Lao Feng asked.

"The boss asked us to wait for a while. Once the transaction address and time are confirmed, he will contact us as soon as possible." While speaking, Lao Zhang handed the translated telegram to Lao Feng for review.

"It looks like we have to stay here for a few more days." Old Feng nodded.

Dong dong dong......

At this time, there was a knock on the door.

"Who?!" Lao Feng asked.

Lao Zhang also quickly put away the radio.

"I'm here to deliver the food." A man's voice came from outside the door.

After hearing this, the two looked at each other and then looked at the door.

"Come in." said Lao Feng.

Soon, the door was opened and several waiters came in with the food. They quickly placed the food on the table.

"Enjoy your meal, both of you," the waiter said and walked out, closing the door behind him.

"The food that the Japanese prepared for us is pretty good." Old Feng couldn't help swallowing his saliva as he looked at the six dishes and one soup on the table.

"Let's eat first and talk about the other things later." Lao Zhang didn't care about anything else. He tore off a roast duck leg and stuffed it into his mouth.

"Hey, why are you eating it? Aren't you afraid that the Japanese will poison it? It would be safer for us to eat the dry food we brought with us." Seeing this, Old Feng became anxious and quickly spoke up to stop him.

He was worried that the Japanese would poison the food, and if that happened, both of them would die.

"What are you thinking? At this time, the Japanese dare not poison us. If anything happens to us, those Japanese pilots will never come back." Lao Zhang didn't care and thought that the Japanese didn't have the courage to poison them.

“But…” Old Feng hesitated to speak.

"Don't worry, our lives are not worth the lives of dozens of pilots that the Japanese would have to sacrifice. It's not worth it. Just eat it boldly." While Lao Zhang was speaking, he had already eaten most of the duck leg in his hand, and his mouth was full of oil.

"That's true." Old Feng thought it made sense. The Japanese wouldn't trade the lives of dozens of pilots for the lives of the two of them. Thinking of this, he also sat down.

"You kid, you've eaten one duck leg, leave one for me!" When Lao Feng saw Lao Zhang trying to tear off the remaining duck leg, he quickly took action, otherwise Lao Zhang would have succeeded.

The two of them ate very quickly. They had almost finished all the dishes and soup on the table, leaving only half a plate of braised pork left.

"Burp~ I can't eat anymore. You can eat the remaining braised pork." Lao Zhang burped, his stomach was full.

"I can't eat anymore. Let's save it for a midnight snack." Old Feng also felt the same way. He really enjoyed the meal.

.........

On the other side, in the communications room of the Japanese army camp.

They detected a radio station sending messages nearby and immediately began to decipher them.

However, without the code book, it was not easy for them to decipher the telegram.

Major General Yoshida also came to the communications room.

"General!" Seeing this, the Japanese major quickly stood up and prepared to salute.

"Okay, let's stop doing that. How about we detect the fluctuations in the radio station?" Major General Yoshida asked. He was more concerned about whether he could decipher the enemy's radio station.

If they can decipher it, they will be able to keep track of the enemy's movements at any time and target them accurately. This is better than directly stealing the enemy's code book!
"General, we have indeed detected it. We are trying to crack it, but it will take time." The Japanese major said hurriedly. Even if it was intercepted, it would not be so easy to decipher it.

"Well, crack it as soon as possible, this task is very important!" Major General Yoshida nodded.

"Hi!" the Japanese major responded.

Major General Yoshida turned and left. He could not help much if he stayed here, and would only put pressure on these communicators.

.........

After replying to the telegram to the leader, Xu Qingfeng also fell into deep thought.

"Political Commissar, what's wrong with you? What are you thinking about?!" The telegraph operator was a little confused. Ever since he sent the telegram to the leader, the political commissar had been in a state of deep thought and he didn't know what was going on.

"I was wondering why the commander wanted me to go to the brigade headquarters with Captain Li and Political Commissar Zhao. Perhaps he had some important task to assign to us." Xu Qingfeng answered and slowly expressed his guess.

"That must be a big mission, and it's a big mission that requires our Special Operations Regiment to cooperate with the New 1st Regiment." The telegraph operator said quickly.

"Well, I just don't know what the task will be. It doesn't seem to be easy." Xu Qingfeng nodded. He thought so too.

He felt uneasy because he was not sure how difficult the task would be.

"The commander can't possibly want us to attack Taiyuan. If that's the case, even with the New 1st Regiment, it won't work.

At least other regiments, even other brigades or the entire division would be needed to make this possible. This alone is probably not enough, and more people may be needed. "The telegraph operator said a lot. In short, if we really want to attack Taiyuan, it will be difficult to fight.

Because there are too many aspects involved, it is impossible to handle it with only two regiments. Although the special operations regiment is indeed very strong, attacking Taiyuan is not the same as attacking other counties.

Taiyuan is the Japanese's base camp here. It is much more difficult to attack it than to attack the airport. Even if they are powerful, they cannot take down Taiyuan.

Unless the number of people in the special operations group can be doubled, that would be more likely.

"It's impossible to attack Taiyuan. This mission cannot be completed." Xu Qingfeng shook his head. It was not time for them to attack Taiyuan yet.

"That's unclear. Anyway, it doesn't matter what the mission is, as long as we can fight the Japanese." The telegraph operator didn't take it too seriously, or rather, he was too careless to think too much. "Well, who cares." Xu Qingfeng nodded. Anyway, he couldn't guess what the mission was.

However, he suddenly thought of something.

"How could I forget about this!" Xu Qingfeng slapped his head, thinking that he must have been too tired recently, so he didn't think of this.

"What's the matter?!" the telegraph operator was puzzled. He felt that the political commissar seemed a little startled.

"Prisoners, those Japanese pilots we captured, if I'm not mistaken, the commander should have contacted the Japanese and negotiated the terms. Now he is probably discussing the specific transaction address and time.

If we want to trade with the devils, we must be on guard. If we ask Captain Li to go to the brigade headquarters, it is likely that the exchange mission will fall on our two regiments. "Xu Qingfeng told the story.

The task of exchanging prisoners is of great importance and no mistakes can be made. It definitely requires two powerful forces to go together.

"Yes, the Japanese might plot against us, so we have to be on guard." The telegraph operator also reacted.

"Leave this task to us, there will be no problem at all." Xu Qingfeng's lips curled up into a smile. He couldn't guarantee that they would attack Taiyuan, but he could guarantee that there would be no accidents in the exchange.

.........

In the evening, the leader called Li Yunlong.

"Commander, you're calling me so late at night. You've worked so hard. What do you want me to do? Have you eaten?!" Li Yunlong's smiling voice came from the phone.

"Tomorrow morning, you, Zhao Gang and Xu Qingfeng come to the brigade headquarters. I have a task for you." The leader did not respond to Li Yunlong's greeting, but talked about business instead.

"Commander, Xu Qingfeng hasn't arrived at the New 1st Regiment yet." Li Yunlong was stunned when he heard this.

"He will arrive at the New 1st Regiment tomorrow morning. You will all come to the brigade headquarters when the time comes. When you meet up, go directly to the brigade headquarters. Don't waste time. Do you understand?"

"Understood! Chief, can I ask what the mission is so I can have a better idea of ​​it?" Li Yunlong asked carefully. If he could know the mission in advance, he could also think of a solution in advance.

"You are so smart, guess it yourself." The leader said and hung up the phone.

"If you don't want to tell me, then don't tell me." Li Yunlong curled his lips and put down the phone.

"Monk, monk!" Li Yunlong turned around and shouted twice towards the door.

"Captain, you're looking for me." Monk Wei quickly entered the room.

"Go, call Lao Zhao, Lao Qian, and Lao Zhong over to me, and tell them I have something urgent to discuss with them." Li Yunlong ordered.

"Okay." Monk Wei nodded, turned and left.

Li Yunlong was wrapped in a quilt, sitting on the kang, and was also thinking about what task the leader would assign to him, and it would depend on the situation and the cooperation of the special operations regiment.

As he was thinking, Li Yunlong unconsciously took out Fenjiu from the cabinet and took a sip.

"Old Li, you said you had something urgent to tell me, so you wanted me to watch you drink?!" Zhao Gang just came in and saw Li Yunlong drinking. He immediately got angry and his face was gloomy.

"Hey, how did this wine get into my hands? Come on, Old Zhao, sit down first. It's indeed an urgent matter. The leader just called me." Li Yunlong quickly put down the bottle of wine and asked Zhao Gang to sit down on the kang.

"What did the chief say?!" When Zhao Gang heard that it was related to the chief, he quickly calmed down and sat on the kang to inquire.

"The commander asked the two of us to go to the brigade headquarters with Xu Qingfeng tomorrow morning. It seems that he has an important task for us." Li Yunlong informed them.

"Did the commander say what the mission is? Why do I feel like this mission might not be simple?" Zhao Gang frowned. If it was the same mission, the commander should not have sent out the New 1st Regiment and the Special Operations Regiment at the same time.

"I thought so too, that's why I asked you to come here to discuss it." Li Yunlong said after hearing what Zhao Gang said.

"Then do you have any idea?!" Zhao Gang asked.

"Old Li, what happened?!" The voice of Deputy Commander Qian came from outside the door. Soon, Deputy Commander Qian and Chief of Staff Zhong came in together.

"Political Commissar Zhao, you arrived first." Chief of Staff Zhong greeted Zhao Gang.

"Come and sit down, let's sit down and talk." Li Yunlong also hurriedly greeted the two of them.

"What the hell are you doing? You're not asking us to come here to drink, are you? If we want to drink, I'll leave. I haven't finished my work yet. Let's talk when I have time." Chief of Staff Zhong saw the bottle of wine on the side and was about to leave after he said that.

“Why are you leaving? I didn’t ask you here to drink…” Li Yunlong told the story again helplessly.

"It seems like this is a big task and it may not be easy to complete. Otherwise, they would not let us go out with the special operations regiment. Are they going to launch another big operation against the Japanese?!" Deputy Commander Qian's eyes lit up. If that was the case, he would be motivated, as he also wanted to kill more Japanese.

"I think it's probably not. We still need to be more stable in the near future. It hasn't been long since we took over the airport, and we haven't had a good rest yet. The leader will not let us take on a big mission.
So I think this mission should not be related to fighting, but it involves the special operations group, and I am a little confused. "Zhao Gang analyzed it for a while, and what he said made sense, but he fell silent when he got to the end.

Upon hearing this, Deputy Commander Qian and Chief of Staff Zhong couldn't help but frown. It was really strange. Since they were not fighting the Japanese, how could it be related to the Special Operations Regiment?

"You guys, have you been busy lately? Need I tell you, this must be related to the exchange of prisoners!" Li Yunlong said at this time.

"Yes, how could I forget about this? I was so busy taking care of the new camp that I forgot about the Japanese pilots!" Deputy Regiment Commander Qian slapped his forehead, and the other two also reacted.

Judging from the current situation, the only major event is the exchange of prisoners.

"I didn't expect that this task would fall on us!" said Chief of Staff Zhong.

"This is normal. We are exchanging prisoners with the Japanese. If we don't send a force with stronger combat effectiveness to carry out the mission, what if the Japanese cheat?" Zhao Gang said. He had not thought of this before because after the prisoners were handed over to the brigade headquarters, they began to busy themselves with the establishment of the new camp.

"The Japanese are still unreliable. We need to be cautious, so we also called in the special operations team.
We are going to the brigade headquarters. I guess the commander will give us tasks in person and tell us something!" Deputy Regiment Commander Qian said.

Although the new group has answered the phone line, it is still better to handle important matters in person.

"Well, from the current perspective, this is probably the case, but I don't know where the transaction address will be." Zhao Gang nodded and began to think about the location of this mission and where it would start.

"Never mind him. We just need to obey orders. There's no need to guess so much." Chief of Staff Zhong said. There was no reward for guessing so much.

"Go away, go away. Now that everything is clear, go back to sleep. Lao Zhao and I have to go to the brigade headquarters tomorrow." Li Yunlong also waved his hand and drove everyone out.

Li Yunlong glanced at the Fenjiu on the bedside table, swallowed his saliva, picked it up and took a sip, then put the wine into the cabinet.
