"Say yes? What say yes?"
Although the old brigade commander helped Li Qiufan get out of the siege, the content of his words made him a little confused.
"Your second division is gone, so your old leader has to go!"
After hearing what Li Qiufan said, the boss said angrily.
"What? Lao Li..."
Li Qiufan's eyes widened immediately after hearing the boss's explanation, but before he could finish his words, he was suppressed by the old brigade commander's eyes.
"Why, I want a teacher from you, do you dare not agree?"
The old brigade commander smiled, but his eyes were full of threats.
"Old chief, you..."
Li Qiufan was really speechless. He didn't expect that when he came to the headquarters to pick up a few people, he actually sent out a division. This deal was too uneconomical.
But he couldn't disobey his superiors' orders, and it seemed that it was already a deal.
"Okay, don't pick on Sosou. I know the strength of your column, and I didn't ask for you for nothing. I got the equipment in exchange for it!"
Seeing the heartbroken look on Li Qiufan's face, the old brigade commander said with disgust.
"Equipment? Where is the equipment?"
Li Qiufan's eyes lit up when he heard that the deal was not a free one. It had been decided anyway, so it would be best to get some compensation!
"You can tell the boss about this. Anyway, my equipment has been brought over!"
The old brigade commander pursed his lips toward the boss and signaled Li Qiufan to talk to the boss. He had already handed over the equipment to the boss.
"Ahem, let's wait until the meeting is over to discuss this matter. Sit down for the meeting first!"
Seeing Li Qiufan's questioning look, the boss coughed dryly and indicated that the meeting would take place first.
Seeing the boss's appearance, Li Qiufan knew that the equipment was in vain, and his heart was filled with sadness.
Li Qiufan didn't listen at all to the content of the following meeting. In fact, the content had little to do with him. What concerned him mainly was Li Yunlong's matter.
The meeting lasted for a long time, and when everyone dispersed, Li Qiufan still looked sad.
"Hey, boss, I leave this matter to you!"
The old brigade commander looked at Li Qiufan and smiled, whispered something and left.
"Who are you crying for here, you brat?"
After everyone left, the boss came to Li Qiufan and kicked him.
"I gave it to Lao Li... ah no, I didn't mourn for anyone."
After hearing the boss's words, Li Qiufan subconsciously replied, almost saying that he was mourning for Li Yunlong.
"Okay, come with me!"
Seeing Li Qiufan's appearance, the boss shook his head helplessly, and then led Li Qiufan out of the headquarters.
"Boss, where are we going?"
The boss didn't say anything along the way, and Li Qiufan couldn't hold it any longer.
"What nonsense, just follow along!"
The boss scolded him angrily, and then stopped talking.
After walking for a while, the two came to an open space. There was something unknown on the open space, and it was covered with a layer of oilcloth.
"open to take a look!"
The boss pointed at the things covered by the oilcloth and said to Li Qiufan.
Li Qiufan guessed something when he saw these oilcloths. After all, the things that need to be covered with oilcloths must be weapons and ammunition.
When the boss asked him to open it and take a look, Li Qiufan was not polite and ran over excitedly and lifted up the oilcloth.
"Boss, is this all for me?"
Seeing what was under the oilcloth, Li Qiufan's eyes narrowed into crescent moons, and he turned to ask the boss.
"Hmph, if I don't give you something, I'm afraid you'll end up wiping tears like a bitch!"
Looking at Li Qiufan who was full of excitement, the boss curled his lips and said.
"Hey, how could it be possible? Thank you, boss!"
Li Qiufan was even happier when he heard that it was indeed for him. Li Yunlong had already been forgotten by him.
As for what the boss gave them, they were not guns and bullets, but boxes of large-caliber heavy artillery shells, which happened to correspond to those used by Li Qiufan's heavy artillery brigade.
The boss knew the situation of Li Qiufan's heavy artillery brigade, and also knew that these shells were difficult to replenish, so he simply kept the weapons and equipment sent by the old brigade commander and gave Li Qiufan a batch of shells.
In fact, the boss had no intention of giving him cannonballs, but yesterday he heard that Li Qiufan had taken down two divisions of the national army, and he immediately changed his mind.
The original plan was to give him the weapons and equipment sent by the old brigade commander and let him raise another division. After all, Li Yunlong's second division was asked to leave.
But thinking about how many people and weapons and equipment he had captured, the boss felt that Li Qiufan must not be short of these, so he simply replaced them with cannonballs.
What Li Qiufan currently lacks the most is shells for large-caliber heavy artillery. After several battles, his original wealth has been almost depleted.
Recently, Li Qiufan was worrying about where to get some cannonballs, but he didn't expect that the boss would change hands and send them to him.
Although Li Yunlong's second division has been transferred away, he can now quickly pull up a division's team. After all, there are still so many prisoners on his side, and they are all ready-made soldiers.
Thinking of this, Li Qiufan turned from sadness to joy, and all he could see were the cannonballs in front of him.
As for Li Yunlong, I can only wish him a safe journey.
In fact, what he didn't know was that the old brigade commander initially wanted his independent first column, but the boss refused to agree.
After some discussion later, the old brigade commander could only settle for Li Yunlong's second division.
However, these are not important to Li Qiufan. After all, he is working for our party wherever he goes, and the shells are just an unexpected surprise.
"Look at your money-obsessed boy, he doesn't look like an Eighth Route Army soldier at all, but more like a Shanxi rich man!"
The boss shook his head helplessly. This guy was really a dog. He would wag his tail when he was given some delicious food.
"Haha, boss, I saw this cannonball. When will I be asked to take it back?"
Li Qiufan didn't care when he heard the boss's teasing. He turned around and asked about the political cadres. He didn't forget to bring some helpers back to Zhao Gang.
"I really owed you a lot of money in my previous life!"
When he heard Li Qiufan ask him about someone else, the boss turned around and left in anger.
"Hey, boss, don't leave. If you don't give me someone, I can't explain it to my political commissar!"
Seeing the boss leaving, Li Qiufan hurriedly chased after him.
After being tortured by Li Qiufan, the boss had no choice but to call the person he wanted.
"Okay, now the cannonballs are here and people are here, you kid, get out of here, I'll get annoyed when I see you!"
The boss didn't want to see Li Qiufan for a second now, and waved his hand to drive him back.
"Boss, I may have to stay here for another day and feed you two meals."
Seeing the boss driving him away, Li Qiufan scratched his head in embarrassment and said.
"You want to live here like a fool? Not only do you want to live here, but you also need to eat from me? Why don't you get out and stay here?"
The boss was confused. Even after taking all the benefits, he still didn't leave, and he even took advantage of himself.
