Chapter 427: Fighting North Henan again 18

There are some small lakes here. In autumn, geese will pass by migratory birds. Therefore, locals can often catch some birds to improve their lives. It seems that the pickled geese meat in this pot was marinated last year.

In order to be able to be preserved for a long time, the marinated goose meat is very salty, but after so long, the goose meat inevitably has some stale taste. Liang Xixian never puts chopsticks again after eating one piece. However, the fish should have been caught today and the taste is very delicious. Liang Xixian's chopsticks kept greeting the fish pieces.

Yuan Dahuzi was very happy. He gnawed the goose meat and said, "Political Commissar, we haven't seen any meat for a long time. Today you are willing to spend money."

Yuan Dahuzi said as he picked up the wine bowl in front of him and said to Li Qinglin: "Commander Li, you are here today. Not only are there meat, but also wine. Come on, our old acquaintances and old colleagues are also having a drink first. You are welcome to come often."

Li Qinglin also set a bowl of wine in front of him, but he saw Liu Zhenghong only took out a bottle of wine, and Liu Zhenghong only poured a little wine into the wine bowl in front of him. Li Qinglin knew that the Eighth Route Army was short of funds, and Liu Zhenghong must have been very tight in his hands, so he picked up the bowl and touched Yuan Dahuzi, and said, "Captain Yuan, drinking can easily make trouble. We are all soldiers, and we can only drink this wine at noon. We must not delay our business because of drinking."

Yuan Dahuzi was so happy that he picked up the wine bowl and drank it all, saying, "Okay, let's drink one, let's do it first."

Liang Xixian took the opportunity to say to Liu Zhenghong: "Political Commissar Liu, our brothers have always admired the Eighth Route Army. They wanted to walk around the team and take a look. I wonder if the political commissar could agree to their small request?" Liang Xixian said, pointing to the two staff members who came with him with his finger.

Liu Zhenghong looked at the two young staff officers and said, "Do you want to see? OK. After the meal, let the soldiers take you everywhere, but don't run around, otherwise it will be bad if you cause misunderstandings."

Liang Xixian stacked up and said, "Political Commissar Liu, don't worry, they will behave properly and will not cause you any trouble."

Each person only drank one bowl of wine at noon, so the meal was very fast. After the meal, Liu Zhenghong really called two soldiers, but they led the staff brought by Liang Xixian to the army for a walk, while Li Qinglin and others discussed matters such as cooperation between the two armies with Liu Zhenghong and others.

The two sides have actually been talking about the cooperation between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party for a long time. Because the national army is obviously stronger than the Communist army, and the situations between different places and between the various armies are different. After talking, the best state is that the two sides live in peace. The so-called mutual support clauses have always been placed on paper by the national army.

Li Qinglin knew very well what the Kuomintang thought and how the Communist Army was doing. He actually had no hope for this agreement, so he handed all these things to Liang Xixian for processing. Instead, he sat on the side and drank tea leisurely.

Liu Zhenghong and Liang Xixian happened to be a match for each other. They refused to give in to each other and bargained at the command center of the advance battalion. Just when the two were fighting fiercely, an Eighth Route Army soldier came in and he reported that the military workers sent from the rear arrived.

When Liu Zhenghong heard that the military workers had arrived, he left Liang Xixian and said happily: "Come in quickly, we are waiting for them to come now."

After a while, a soldier brought in three people, who were also wearing gray cloth uniforms from the Eighth Route Army, and the leader of the person was limping on one leg.

As soon as Li Qinglin saw this person, he immediately ran up and hugged him, and said in surprise: "How expensive, it turns out it's you, I miss you so much."

This lame man is so expensive. Compared with the past, his body is so thin, but his face is much whiter.

Qian Duogui didn't expect to meet Li Qinglin here. After so many years, Li Qinglin has become stronger and has turned darker, especially Li Qinglin is now wearing a straight colonel uniform, which almost made Qian Duogui not recognize him.

After he confirmed that it was Li Qinglin, Qian Duogui hugged Li Qinglin and said, "Qinglin, I really didn't expect to see you alive."

Speaking of this, Qian Duogui said sadly: "Qinglin, Xiuzhi..."

Li Qinglin quickly interrupted him and said, "I already know her situation."

Liu Zhenghong smiled and said, "You little Lizhuang is really a hero. Comrade Xiuzhi is a good comrade, and Comrade Yuqi is even more of our talent."

Li Qinglin let go of the money and said to Liu Zhenghong: "It's not good to have many legs and feet, but he is skillful."

Liu Zhenghong nodded and said, "It's true. He is a good player in our military industry. We have been looking forward to them here for a long time."

Qian Duogui said: "Political Commissar Liu, we can't stay with you for a few days, and the next base is also urging us. If you have any urgent work, you can send it to us now and we will do it immediately."

Liu Zhenghong looked at Li Qinglin and Liang Xixian, and finally said, "How many grenades have you brought?"

Qian Duogui said: "The road is too far, and we can't bring much. Only two boxes of 'border area' are allocated to you."

Liu Zhenghong said: "There is a little less, but it is better than not. Lao Qian, I said, can we improve our "border area manufacturing"? Many "border area manufacturing" are fried in half at one blow, and we can't just hear the sound."

Qian Duogui said: "The conditions in the arsenal in our base area are poor. The inside is made of black gunpowder and explosives, and the outer shell is made of iron. Because our casting materials and technology are not very good, we will explode in half."

Speaking of this, Qian Duogui waved his hand and said, "Political Commissar Liu, don't worry, what we have brought this time is a new product that has been improved and has never been furnished in half."

"That's good, that's good." Liu Zhenghong said repeatedly: "We have been here for so long, and there are many guns that need to be repaired properly. I'll have to work hard these days."

Qian Duogui smiled and said, "What are you waiting for? Let's start doing it now."

Liu Zhenghong was embarrassed, hesitated for a moment, and said, "You came from afar, you should take a rest first."

Qian Duogui smiled and said, "Actually, we all know that you are all anxious when you lack weapons. I think you should not be too polite. Take the time to do it."

Liu Zhenghong said: "Okay, let's put the things next door, let's go there now."

Speaking of this, Liu Zhenghong said to Li Qinglin and Liang Xixian: "Two, you guys, you have some rest first, I'll go and come."

Li Qinglin smiled and said, "It's okay for me to sit here anyway, so why not go and watch the fun."

Qian Duogui smiled and said, "What's so good about this? Isn't it just repairing a few parts? It's not as difficult as we built Germany in Xiaolizhuang."

Li Qinglin smiled and said to Liu Zhenghong: "Don't worry, political commissar, I don't need to steal your skills, it's just that Duogui and I haven't met for so long, and I just want to talk to him more."

Liu Zhenghong also smiled and said, "What weapons do you have in the national army? Do you still like our rifle and knife? If Commander Li really wants to see it, then go and have a look."

Next door is where all kinds of guns are to be repaired. There are about forty or fifty guns of various kinds. Li Qinglin knew that the Eighth Route Army team currently has about two hundred people. Now that there are so many broken guns, this has a great impact on the combat effectiveness of a unit.

Liu Zhenghong led Qian Duogui and others into the house and left, leaving Li Qinglin here to watch the fun.

Qian Duogui brought two people this time. After they entered the house, they immediately arranged the guns in different categories. Li Qinglin paid attention to it. There were Zhongzheng, Hanyang, old sleeves, and even two modified single-handed old guns.

After the gun was divided, Qian Duoqiu didn't do much. The two were obviously Qian Duoqiu assistants. They each picked up a "Kui Kazha" and decomposed it. When they found a problem, they immediately picked up the tool to repair it. When they encountered problems, Qian Duoqiu gave some advice. There were some more difficult things to repair. Qian Duoqiu could do it by himself.

Qian Duogui's own hands-on usually uses tools to process some simple parts. Li Qinglin can see from Qian Duogui's actions of processing and making parts that Qian Duogui is extremely skillful, and the data of firearms' vulnerable parts seem to have grown in his mind for a long time. After he measured the processed parts, he picked up the tools and got it done in a few moments.

If we say that these military workers from the Eighth Route Army are really versatile, they have to do anything. Some guns are so old that they are a little decayed, and the buttstocks and guardrails are a bit decayed. These people even took out carpenters to repair wooden parts or find wood to remake one as it is.

When these military workers were inspecting the firearms, Li Qinglin also picked up a few and looked at them. They saw that these weapons had been used for too long, and the rifles of some guns had almost been smoothed out. Li Qinglin asked: "Can such guns still be used for war?"

Qian Duogui said while working: "Who told the Chairman not to replenish our Eighth Route Army? As long as these guns are still usable, our troops will stay for use. If it is too dilapidated, we will only send them to the militia after repairing them."

Qian Duogui brought two assistants very capable, so he didn't have much to do, but Qian Duogui was not idle either. He took out some iron sheets, copper wires and some tools from the copper smith tool box he brought, and did the copper smith work on the side.

Seeing Qian Duogui knocking the iron sheet and rolling it into hollow iron sheet tiny cylinders, Li Qinglin smiled and said, "Duogui, you are so old, why are you still making kids' things?"

Qian Duogui said: "Qinglin, how did I make a child's thing?"

Li Qinglin picked up a small hollow iron roll, pinched it with both fingers, blocked one finger, and then placed it on his lips and blew it hard, "Drip, drip, drip"

Li Qinglin took away the small iron hollow cylinder and smiled and said, "Isn't this a child's toy?"

Qian Duogui laughed and said, "Qinglin, this is not a toy. Don't be too small, we have to use it to make a lot of use."
