"Old Li?"
Duanwu was surprised. He didn't expect that Li Zhongren didn't leave and was still waiting here.
After the previous meeting, everyone went out. Only Duanwu was called away by the Chairman, which delayed him for fifteen minutes.
So at this time, there should be no one outside the Yuan Family Garden, but I didn't expect that Li Zhongren was still here.
Duanwu was a little puzzled, but he was not afraid that Li Zhongren would be detrimental to him. Because at the meeting just now, he was speaking for Gui Jun.
Li Zhongren watched Duan Wu coming over, walking very slowly, and quickly got out of the car and helped Duan Wu get on the bus.
Duanwu said: "No, no, Lao Li, I just need to walk slower."
"Forget it, I know you're not that pretentious, you just want to get better quickly and then go fight the Japanese, right?"
Li Zhongren asked back, Duanwu smiled slightly, and then with Li Zhongren's help, he got into Li Zhongren's car.
The driver in the car got out of the car knowingly and stood aside.
Li Zhongren also got into the car at this time and sat in the back seat of the car with Duanwu.
Li Zhongren said at this time: "Thank you, you just spoke for our Gui army, otherwise the chairman would not have replenished us with 800 guns and 100,000 rounds of ammunition."
"oh!"
Duanwu suddenly realized at this moment that Li Zhongren was waiting here because he wanted to thank him.
Duanwu said nonchalantly: "These are all trivial matters. You, Lao Li, don't take it to heart."
Li Zhongren said: "Think of me, Li Zhongren, all my life as a soldier. Others owed me a lot, but I owed them nothing. Today, I, Li Zhongren, owe you a favor."
At this point, Li Zhongren changed the topic and said: "I have one more thing for you. Shandong is not so easy to control. Han Fuju has been operating in Shandong for many years and has no less than 100,000 elite soldiers. And many of them are His old subordinates who have been with him for more than ten years are loyal to him.
Therefore, once Han Fuju dies, a mutiny is very likely to occur. In this way, I have Zhang Zhizhong's 59th Army deployed on the LY front line in Shandong. If danger occurs, you can withdraw to LY and join Zhang Zhizhong's department, which will ensure your safety. "
Hearing this, Duanwu shook his head and said: "Old Li, this won't work. I am now ordered to withdraw from Bengbu, and the frontline troops in Huainan will be empty. Moreover, in the last battle, both the 51st Army and the 31st Army suffered casualties. Not small. But the 125th Division currently stationed in Bengbu has backward weapons and equipment.
Although I gave them almost all the weapons and equipment captured by the Japanese, it did not have much effect on the 125th Division with more than 10,000 people.
And I don’t know what happened to the 31st Army, but after the 51st Army fought this battle, they were also very short of weapons and ammunition.
In this case, if my independent regiment withdraws from Bengbu, Huainan's troops will not only be empty, but also will be obviously insufficient in firepower.
I'm not bragging. Although my independent regiment only has more than 5,000 people, the firepower of these 5,000 people is at least equivalent to that of two divisions.
Let me tell you this, if I encountered a Japanese regiment head-on, I would think it was just a side dish.
But if any army in Huainan encountered a Japanese regiment, who would dare to have such confidence? "
Li Zhongren nodded, then frowned and said, "What do you mean?"
Duanwu said: "Let Zhang Zhizhong's 59th Army take my place. The 59th Army's combat effectiveness is still good. As for Shandong, you can ask Lao Tang to cooperate with me. And he doesn't need to come to LY, just let him He just needs to stay near Zaozhuang. And if something happens in Shandong, I will contact Lao Tang."
Li Zhongren thought for a moment, and then said: "I'm not Xunsi, you are familiar with General Zhang, but haven't you met Tang Enbo a few times?"
Duanwu smiled and said: "Don't worry, Lao Li, I know Lao Tang! We drank together last time!"
"··············"
Li Zhongren was speechless and thought to himself: Drink, you big-headed devil. Tang Enbo has strict military discipline and rarely drinks alcohol, let alone with your kid?
But at this time, Li Zhongren figured out one thing. This guy in Dragon Boat Festival is indeed familiar with everyone. He is familiar with everyone.
So he didn't care, and Tang Enbo was a person who valued national justice.
Thinking of this, Li Zhongren could only nod and said: "Okay, let's do what you want. But I still want to advise you to be careful during this trip to Shandong, because I have received news before that Han Fuju may What consensus has been reached with the Japanese? I am afraid that his troops have defected to the Japanese!"
Duanwu thought for a while and said: "Probably not. Although Han Fuju passively resisted the war, I believe that there should be many men in his army who dare to fight against the Japanese.
When I go there, I show justice to them, and I think they will understand. "
"············"
Li Zhongren was speechless again, because he knew the warlord well. Because he is a warlord, and warlords put their own interests first.
Of course, Li Zhongren is not saying that there are no patriotic people among warlords. Take him as an example. He is more patriotic and will spend all his money to fight the Japanese.
So Li Zhongren thought for a while and could only hope that what Duanwu said was right.
"Come on, boy, let's go together. I'll take you with me on the way."
Li Zhongren asked about the Dragon Boat Festival. What he meant was that the two of them were on the way, at least part of the way, and it could be regarded as Li Zhongren escorting the Dragon Boat Festival.
Because Li Zhongren is the commander of the war zone, he naturally has many more guards than Duanwu.
But at this moment, Duanwu was slightly happy and refused: "No, you, Lao Li, go first, I have some other things to do!"
When Li Zhongren saw Duanwu's cunning look, he thought to himself: "Has this kid smelled something good again?"
Li Zhongren had also heard before that Zhang Li from Kaifeng Airport gave a lot of things to the Dragon Boat Festival.
If we go by the rumors, this guy Duan Wu was bribed.
But who dares to tell the Chairman about this kind of thing? Because telling is useless, and you might even get reprimanded. What's more, these days, who doesn't take some and is greedy? There are still people who are short-selling them!
So compared with these people, the little things that Dragon Boat Festival took were nothing.
And what about Li Zhongren? This time he came to Kaifeng, except for the 800 guns and 100,000 rounds of ammunition that Duanwu asked him for, he didn't get any benefits at all. So at this time, he wanted to get a piece of the Dragon Boat Festival.
Thinking of this, Li Zhongren asked: "Where do you want to make a fortune? You also know that my Gui army is short of everything now."
Li Zhongren said half of what he said because he believed that Duanwu should be able to understand his intention.
How smart is this boy in Dragon Boat Festival? Do you still need to say something to him clearly? Can you tell me how to make a fortune? I am the commander of the fifth war zone, but I am just hanging here. What do you want to do, but I can’t do it?
But at this time, Duanwu pretended to sigh and said: "Yes, Guijun is suffering, and you, Lao Li, are also tired. You must take good care of your health, these brothers in Guijun are all relying on you. Okay, I’ll take the first step. Alas, there’s really no other way, how pitiful!”
