"Everyone is here. Let's talk about old times later. I called you here to announce the order of the Military Commission!"
"Order from the Military Commission! The First Corps, Armored Division, and Mountain Division of the First Corps of the Southwest Military Region should rush to Chongqing before July 20th and take a train to the location of the Northeast Frontier Defense Force!"
As soon as everyone sat down, Li Qiufan went straight to the point and explained the order of the General Committee.
Everyone's eyes widened after hearing the order, and the whole conference room was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.
"Why are you all mute? You have nothing to say?"
Seeing everyone staring blankly, Li Qiufan frowned and said to everyone.
"Commander, why are you suddenly going to the Northeast? And what's going on with the Northeast Border Guard? Aren't we affiliated with the Southwest Military Region?"
After hearing what Li Qiufan said, Erhu took the lead in asking him.
Since the Peninsula War had just broken out, no one except Li Qiufan and Zhao Gang knew the news.
After hearing this order, everyone thought that they were being transferred out of the southwest and transferred to the northeast.
"Not long ago, a war broke out in the peninsula. It was originally a civil war, but a few days ago, the beautiful country suddenly got involved."
"The peninsula is bordered by our country. Do you understand that the lips are dying and the teeth are cold?"
"In order to prevent invasion by other countries, the Military Commission has specially established the Northeast Border Defense Force to protect our country's borders."
After hearing Erhu's inquiry, Li Qiufan told everyone about the war on the peninsula, and at the same time explained the origin of the Northeast Border Guard.
"But what does this have to do with us? The battlefield is on the northeastern border, and we are in Yunnan. The troops in the north are enough!"
After listening to Li Qiufan's explanation, everyone knew what happened, and then Lu Ming asked him doubtfully.
"This is not something we need to consider. The country has orders, and we soldiers just have to carry them out!"
Li Qiufan was also puzzled by Lu Ming's doubts, but as he said, these were not things they needed to consider.
"Commander, are you going to fight the foreign devils? The Military Commission heard that our weapons and equipment are good, so we transferred us to the Northeast!"
Just when everyone was confused, Li Yunlong, who had been silent before, suddenly spoke, and his words hit home.
"Old Li, you have a lot of crazy ideas. Why don't I improve your skills and make you the chief of staff?"
After hearing what Li Yunlong said, Li Qiufan raised his eyebrows and said to him. He never expected that Li Yunlong would guess this.
Although Li Qiufan knew what would happen later, he should not have said this now, nor should he have said it.
"Ahem, we, Lao Li, are just taking a guess. Chief of Staff Lao Cheng is doing a good job, so don't jerk him off!"
After hearing Li Qiufan's words, Li Yunlong coughed twice awkwardly and said.
He didn't think that Li Qiufan would really beat up the chief of staff. Besides, although the chief of staff of the corps was higher than him as the army commander in terms of rank, he, as the army commander, actually had military power.
"Stop talking nonsense. The main reason I called you here is to talk about this matter, and then to re-plan the defense area. After all, the First Army, the Mountain Division and the Armored Division are about to go north!"
Li Qiufan glared at Li Yunlong angrily, then looked at everyone again and said.
"Commander, we, Lao Li, have something else to do!"
As soon as Li Qiufan finished speaking, Li Yunlong spoke again and stood up.
"If you have something to do, you can just sit down and talk. It's not like a teacher is teaching students, so you have to stand up and answer."
When he heard that Li Yunlong had something to say, Li Qiufan didn't stop him and just let him say it.
"Then our old Li Ke said, Commander, can you take our Third Army with you when you go to the Northeast?"
After Li Yunlong received Li Qiufan's permission, he immediately expressed his thoughts.
"I said, Lao Li, that place in the Northeast freezes to death. Why do you want to go there?"
After Li Yunlong finished speaking, Li Xiping asked Li Qiufan before he could speak.
"What the hell do you know? Just stay here!"
After hearing Li Xiping's inquiry, Li Yunlong said something disgusting to him, and then looked at Li Qiufan.
"Old Li, why do you want to go to the Northeast?"
Seeing Li Yunlong's gaze, Li Qiufan asked him suspiciously. He seriously suspected that Li Yunlong might have guessed something.
"What, isn't Lao Ding in the Northeast? We, Lao Li, are going with us just in time to meet our old comrades, whom we haven't seen for several years."
Upon hearing Li Qiufan's inquiry, Li Yunlong immediately found an excuse and even said that he wanted to go to the northeast to meet Ding Wei.
"Haha, Ding Wei is not in the northeast. How can we kill him when the main force of the four fields goes south?"
After hearing Li Yunlong's reasons, Li Qiufan immediately concluded that Li Yunlong had guessed something.
However, he did not point it out, but found an excuse to politely reject it.
Because once this matter is brought to light, Li Yunlong will not be the only one who wants to go to the Northeast.
Others did not notice the hidden meaning of the two people's words. Only Zhao Gang suddenly frowned.
"Old Li, you can discuss these private matters with Qiu Fan after the meeting. Let's discuss the defense zone first!"
After being declined by Li Qiufan, Li Yunlong wanted to say something more, but was interrupted by Zhao Gang before he could speak.
After hearing Zhao Gang's words, Li Yunlong could only reluctantly shut his mouth and prepared to discuss it with Li Qiufan alone after the meeting.
The discussion on the mobilization of various armies to supplement the defense lines was quickly completed, and then Li Qiufan announced the adjournment of the meeting and asked everyone to go back and arrange the mobilization of troops.
But after everyone left, Li Yunlong did not leave, and just stared at Li Qiufan.
"Why don't you go away, you idiot, until I take care of the food?"
Li Qiufan naturally saw Li Yunlong, and then asked him.
"Qiu Fan, tell me the truth. Is it really possible that we will enter the peninsula to fight?"
Before Li Yunlong could speak, Zhao Gang interrupted him again and asked Li Qiufan with a solemn expression.
"possible."
After hearing Zhao Gang's words, Li Qiufan looked around and saw that only Li Yunlong, Heizi and Shi were there, so he nodded towards Zhao Gang and said.
After getting Li Qiufan's answer, Zhao Gang was stunned.
Although both Li Qiufan and Zhao Gang's questions and answers are possible, both parties know the possible meaning, because some things cannot be said clearly.
"Commander, you must take our Lao Li with you, I'm almost in trouble!"
Li Yunlong, a human spirit, naturally heard the meaning, and then immediately said to Li Qiufan.
"It's not up to me to decide whether to take you with me or not. This order was issued directly by the Military Commission at a higher level. Do you think this is something I can control?"
Li Qiufan was helpless about Li Yunlong's persistence and could only shake his head and reason with him.
