Li Yunlong saw Li Qiufan's determination on this matter, and then stopped mentioning it.
Originally, he just had the mentality of giving it a try. It would be best if he could dig out a few cannons. If he couldn't dig out them, it would not matter.
"Forget it, if you don't give it, you won't give it. Let's drink!"
Li Yunlong picked up the wine glass, clinked it with Li Qiufan and drank it in one gulp.
"Hey, I said you, Lao Li, are you trying to scare the rabbit? Do you want to shoot him first or not?"
Seeing Li Yunlong's reaction, Li Qiufan also figured it out. He was just giving it a try.
"Alas, our old Li is destined..."
"Okay, okay, let's drink and drink and don't talk about this anymore!"
Hearing that Li Yunlong was about to suffer misfortune again, Li Qiufan stopped immediately, picked up the wine bowl and started drinking.
The two of them drank several bowls back and forth, looking a little tipsy.
"Old Li, remember from now on, never underestimate the enemy and rush forward. You are a division commander, not a commando. It is not your responsibility to charge!"
While he was still drunk, Li Qiufan gave Li Yunlong a heads-up because he was afraid that the historical scene would happen again.
Originally, with Li Yunlong under his command, he could completely avoid those things happening.
But now that Li Yunlong is being transferred away, there will be more changes in the future.
"Brother, don't worry, Lao Li will listen to what you say! You are in front of the King of Heaven!"
Li Yunlong drank so loudly that he hugged Li Qiufan's shoulders and kept promising.
"I hope so!"
Li Qiufan shook his head. This person's character could not be changed at will. He only hoped that Li Yunlong could remember his words.
After chatting with Li Yunlong for a while, Li Qiufan left. After all, it was the transfer of a division, and many things were still waiting for him, the commander, to handle.
The next day, Li Qiufan held a special farewell party to send off the soldiers of the Second Division.
"Brother, why are you doing this? Our Lao Li is too thin-skinned!"
Thinking of what he had just said on the stage, Li Yunlong felt a little embarrassed and turned red in a rare moment.
"You, Lao Li, are thin-faced? Don't be ridiculous, I doubt whether a bullet can penetrate your face!"
Hearing Li Yunlong say that he was thin-skinned, Li Qiufan almost flinched, but immediately said angrily.
"But brother, are you really going to give me, Lao Li, two shots of that cannon?"
Li Yunlong smiled, and then whispered into Li Qiufan's ear.
"Fuck you! Do you want to eat shit?"
Hearing that Li Yunlong was planning to use heavy artillery again, Li Qiufan raised his leg and kicked him.
"Haha, I just want to ask, why are you so angry!"
Li Yunlong dodged the kick and said to Li Qiufan with a playful smile.
"Brother, I'm gone, please take care of yourself!"
After the joke, Li Yunlong suddenly became serious, stood up straight and saluted Li Qiufan.
"The same goes for you, don't forget what I told you!"
Li Qiufan nodded and returned the same military salute, not forgetting what Li Yunlong had warned him.
Li Yunlong thought about it for a moment, then patted his chest to express that he had kept it in mind, and then set off with his troops.
Li Qiufan watched Li Yunlong leave, and waited until the second division was no longer visible before turning around and leaving.
A few days later, Li Qiufan was sitting in the headquarters feeling a little melancholy. He always felt that something was missing since Li Yunlong left.
"Heizi, call all the division commanders over for a meeting!"
Li Qiufan suddenly thought of something and asked Heizi to call people over for a meeting.
It didn't take long for several division commanders to arrive, and Zhao Gang came at the same time.
"Qiu Fan, what happened?"
When he heard the news that Li Qiufan was going to have a meeting, Zhao Gang thought something was going on.
"Nothing happened, just rearranging the troops."
"By the way, how's your work going?"
Li Qiufan shook his head, and then asked Zhao Gang about their work situation. After all, it was related to whether they could pull up a division within a period of time.
"It's not bad. You'll probably see results in a few days. Just wait and see!"
Zhao Gang patted his chest and told Li Qiufan to just wait and see.
Hearing this, Li Qiufan nodded, and then looked at everyone.
"Since Lao Li left, the establishment of this second division has been vacant. I asked you to come here today to talk about this matter."
"The political commissar and the others are doing their work, and I think it won't be long before we can raise a division again."
"When this division is raised, it will fill the vacancy of the second division. The division commander will be temporarily held concurrently by the rank and file. Do you have any opinions?"
Li Qiufan expressed his thoughts. He felt that the one thing missing was the second division.
So I called everyone over to discuss this matter in advance.
Everyone didn't have any objections when they heard that he was concurrently serving as the commander of the second division.
After all, he is the chief of staff himself, so it is no problem to become a division commander, and he also has experience in leading troops.
After announcing this, Li Qiufan was just about to dismiss everyone, when the telegraph operator came in with a telegram.
Li Qiufan reached out to take it and found that it was a telegram from the headquarters. He then lowered his head and read it.
"Heizi, assemble the troops and notify the heavy artillery brigade to prepare to evacuate!"
After reading the telegram, Li Qiufan said something that puzzled everyone.
"What's going on? Why do you have to evacuate when you're so good?"
Zhao Gang frowned and asked first.
"The old man has sent heavy troops. The headquarters asked us to abandon cities and places and move to the outside to conduct mobile warfare."
"By the way, let's go and inform the guerrilla brigade and ask about their whereabouts."
Li Qiufan explained to everyone, and he did not forget the guerrilla brigade.
After hearing Li Qiufan's words, everyone quickly left and returned to their respective units to assemble, waiting for Li Qiufan's order to evacuate.
"Brother, the guerrilla brigade said they want to stay here and continue to fight guerrillas. After all, this is their strength."
Heizi asked someone to ask the guerrilla brigade, and the news came back soon.
"Well, if they want to stay, then let's stay."
"By the way, let someone send them some weapons and ammunition. This is what they need most to fight guerrillas here. We can help if we can!"
Li Qiufan nodded. He respected the guerrilla brigade's choice, and then asked Heizi to arrange for weapons and ammunition to be delivered.
After dealing with this, Li Qiufan issued an evacuation order, and the direction of evacuation was the Eighth Route Army headquarters.
Because the headquarters was also about to evacuate, but the evacuation of the headquarters required troops to defend it, and the boss directly ordered Li Qiufan's general.
Therefore, Li Qiufan's evacuation direction was to the headquarters, and he would continue to move after meeting his boss.
After nearly two days of rapid march, the troops finally arrived at the headquarters. At this time, all the organs and units in the headquarters were ready, waiting for Li Qiufan's independent first column.
"You brat, you came so slowly, aren't you afraid that I will be arrested by the national army?"
As soon as he saw Li Qiufan, the boss said angrily.
"Well, I almost broke my leg running, boss, please stop joking."
Hearing the boss's words, Li Qiufan was a little confused. How come this seemed like deliberately looking for trouble?
