Chapter 230 Westbound 13
The position where Li Qinglin and his team are currently located is originally from the first battalion. Their battalion commander is here just to ask Li Qinglin to give up his position. After all, losing the position is definitely a fault in the eyes of his superiors.
Before Li Qinglin could answer what to do, a soldier in the fourth platoon whispered: "I escaped faster than a rabbit in the last battle. If someone wins a battle, he will pick up the ready-made ones. Such a commander is so embarrassed to come to the front line."
A former deserter mocked the current deserter. Isn’t this a fifty step and a hundred steps? Li Qinglin felt very funny in his heart.
However, before leaving, Li Qinglin still shouted: "This brother is right. It is not embarrassing to defeat a war, but it is most embarrassing to be a deserter when he is afraid of death! All of our fifth company are heroes. As long as they are heroes, we will continue to win battles in the future."
Li Qinglin's words of praise from "all heroes" made everyone in Wulian shine and his chest high, and a sense of pride overflowed on his face.
The commander of the 211 Regiment was indeed here to ask for a position, but this position was guarded by the Fifth Company. He felt that his face was lost and he was embarrassed to speak in circles for a long time.
Seeing the battalion commander stammering around, he was embarrassed to say it clearly, Li Qinglin simply said: "Sir, this position was saved by my brothers in the fifth company for their lives. I must be worthy of those brothers who fought for me."
The first battalion commander was not sure how to speak, but now Li Qinglin took the initiative to ask, and he quickly responded: "Li Liansu, we will not treat your brother unfairly. What should you do if you say you should do."
Li Qinglin said: "My brother is killed and four injured. These brothers should be compensated, right? I even consumed a lot of ammunition just now, so I should also supplement it. In addition, our brothers have helped you guard the position, so you should pay the military salary this month, right?"
In fact, Li Qinglin only had two injuries just now, and these two injuries were minor injuries. Li Qinglin made these requests to knock on the bamboo robberies one by one.
When Li Qinglin was talking, the battalion commander of the first battalion was listening carefully. After Li Qinglin's three conditions were raised, he immediately agreed: "Li Lianfu is indeed a cheerful person. I agree with all your conditions."
In fact, the first battalion commander had already thought about it before coming. As soon as Li Qinglin's fifth company withdrew from the position, he would immediately write a report to Shangfeng, reporting that the first battalion had won a small victory.
In war, there is naturally a consumption of ammunition. As long as the first battalion reports war damage, the top peak must be supplemented, so it is not a problem to supplement the ammunition of the fifth company. As for spending money to compensate for the casualties and injured, and pay the military pay for the fifth company, this is even less problematic in the opinion of the first battalion commander. When the first battalion collapsed a few days ago, dozens of new recruits ran away, and the military pay for these people will naturally be more; the soldiers of the first battalion who just fled were also punished, and their military pay this month would naturally be deducted, and the money would be more than enough to compensate the 5th company.
After the two sides agreed, the first battalion commander immediately returned to the second-tier position. In less than half an hour, he brought the guards back. This time he did not come empty-handed, and he and the guards brought enough oceans.
After Xiao Liuzi packed up the ocean wrapped in red paper, Li Qinglin gave the order, the officers and soldiers of the Fifth Company immediately packed up their equipment, and more than 100 people retreated from the trenches within three minutes.
Li Qinglin was about to leave, but the first battalion commander quietly grabbed him again. It turned out that he wanted to buy some spoils from Li Qinglin.
Li Qinglin knew why he wanted to buy spoils. The first battalion must have reported to his superiors that he had won the battle, but winning the battle was not said by empty words. There must be physical spoils to prove himself. Now they have no other way except to spend money on the fifth consecutive period of buying.
These trophy transactions were handled by Xiao Liuzi and Jin Mingjun. Li Qinglin asked them to stay with the same battalion to handle these things. However, Li Qinglin took away the command knife, telescope, military rank and uniform of the Japanese lieutenant. The crooked machine gun was specially assigned to Xiao Liuzi. This machine gun was only replaced but not sold. A crooked machine gun was replaced with two Czech bullets and had two base bullets.
Shortly after the Fifth Company returned to the station, Xiao Liuzi and the others also came back. The transaction went very smoothly. Xiao Liuzi introduced that the first battalion was very generous. As long as Xiao Liuzi was willing to sell, the first battalion basically did not bargain, and the crooked machine gun was replaced.
After a while, the first battalion sent the ammunition that should be compensated for the fifth company. This time they were even more generous. Not only ammunition, but also the big truck that transported the ammunition to the fifth company.
After lunch, the Third Battalion of the 211 Regiment sent two people, who brought the warm invitation from the battalion commander of the Third Battalion, and they invited the Fifth Company to the Third Battalion to station.
After the fifth company evacuated the position, the first battalion immediately reported the victory to the regiment and sent the spoils as evidence. The third battalion didn't know where to learn that this battle was actually fought by Li Qinglin's fifth company. After a change of mind, the third battalion commander immediately decided to ask the fifth company to go to his defense area to station.
The mission of the Third Battalion was to monitor the enemy west of Quxingji. For so many days, the Third Battalion did not launch a real attack except for shooting guns and artillery at Quxingji. Hearing that the Japanese in Quxingji came out of the east gate and took the initiative to attack, the Third Battalion Commander felt a sense of grief. This time the Japanese hit a wall at the east gate. Will they launch an attack from the direction of the west gate next time?
The troops of the 211th Regiment were really not good. The Third Battalion Commander immediately thought of Li Qinglin's fifth company. Li Qinglin's fifth company was a unit of the 52nd Army. His own troops were not good. It would be better to ask this tiger and wolf army to help him guard it, so the Third Battalion Commander immediately sent someone to contact him.
After knowing the purpose of the people coming from the Third Battalion, Li Qinglin sneered in his heart. Is this an army to defend the country?
However, Li Qinglin did not refuse the invitation from the Third Battalion. He put forward several conditions: one is military pay, two is ammunition, three is supplies, and four is pension and treatment of casualties. Other conditions are discussed separately.
The people from the Third Battalion were obviously prepared, so they immediately agreed to Li Qinglin's conditions.
The fifth company was about to set off, but the battalion commander of the first battalion got the news from somewhere. He hurriedly brought people to him and repeatedly begged Li Qinglin not to change the base.
Just when the two battalions were quarreling, Li Qinglin proposed a compromise plan, that is, the first row of the fifth company, the second row of the second row of the third battalion were stationed, and the rest of the personnel were stationed in the first battalion.
Li Qinglin's fifth company now has a total of 187 people, a total of 80 people in the first and second rows, with six Czech and two grenade launchers. Such firepower has exceeded the firepower of an ordinary company. In addition, the first and second rows are all veterans who have experienced many bloody battles. The combat power of these two platoons is comparable to that of a strengthening company of the Third Battalion.
All parties agreed to Li Qinglin's plan. Finally, Li Qinglin appointed Xiao Liuzi to temporarily command the first and second rows of people to garrison the third battalion's position, and he took the remaining people to garrison the place where he was stationed.
