An hour later, in a restaurant built by Black Wind Mountain.
More than ten soldiers of the Eighth Route Army and the Chief of Staff of the Left sat at two tables. Looking at the dazzling array of more than ten kinds of dishes that emitted alluring fragrance, they secretly sucked in a breath of cold air. Some of them even swallowed their saliva.
"Left Chief of Staff!"
Leng Mei brought seven or eight soldiers with him, carrying many bottles of white wine and cigarettes as they strolled over. They placed them on another table.
"Our commander was supposed to accompany you, but because something happened at the last minute, it was inconvenient, so he sent me to bring you wine and cigarettes. The commander said,"Please rest assured and eat. Because you don't have to worry about your safety in Green Dragon Mountain."”
"This female adjutant, please express our gratitude to Commander Yan because this meal is too sumptuous. We really feel ashamed to accept your hospitality.”
"I'll definitely pass on the Left Chief of Staff's message. Please enjoy your meal. I'll be back in an hour and bring everyone to their rooms to rest.”
Leng Mei nodded politely at the Left Chief of Staff and the others, then turned around and walked out of the door. There was no need for her to stay here when the guests were having a meal because it would make them uncomfortable and unable to let go.
Gada gada…As the footsteps gradually faded away, the Left Chief of Staff looked at the drooling soldiers beside him and smiled kindly." Hurry up and eat, comrades. Don't let them down."”
Gulp…
After hearing the words of the Left Chief of Staff, the soldiers looked at each other and did not make a move. They were hungry, and it had been almost half a year since they had eaten meat. However, they were a little embarrassed that the Chief of Staff did not eat first.
"Look at you guys. Fine, I'll go first!”
The Left Chief of Staff looked at the soldiers and shook his head. He could tell what they were thinking. He stood up, picked up a chicken drumstick with his chopsticks, and put it in his bowl.
Swoosh... Clang, clang…A scene of ravenous eating appeared in the dining room.
The Left Chief of Staff felt both gratified and bitter at the same time. Their troops were too poor. They could not even feed their soldiers. Sigh…
Yan Jue, who was reading a book after eating in the hall of the brotherhood gathering, heard familiar footsteps. He looked up and saw that Leng Mei had returned from the dining room.
Commander, I'm back."
"Yes, how are they eating? Are you satisfied? Prepare more beef, sheep, and pork for them. We can't finish our meat at all, so don't feel bad.”
"I've already made the arrangements, Commander!”
Leng Mei stood beside Yan Jue, looking like she wanted to say something but stopped herself.
"What's wrong? If you have something to say, just say it. It's not like you to hesitate.”
Yan Jue put down the book in his hand and asked Leng Mei.
"Commander."
Leng Mei looked at Yan Jue with a puzzled face and said,"Aren't you treating these people too well?" It doesn't matter if they eat or not, but I heard from Wen Rou that you're going to give them weapons and equipment? Although they are all light weapons, it is inevitable that they will not pose a threat to us in the future.”
"That won't happen. At least before the Japanese are driven out of China, our relationship will be in the honeymoon period.”
Yan Jue understood what Leng Mei meant. The clone army was completely loyal to him. Their stance was to target all people or forces that were dangerous to her, even if the other party was a potential threat.
However, the Japanese are too powerful now. Yes, you didn't hear wrongly. They are powerful.
Perhaps their weapons and equipment, steel production, and oil reserves could not compare to the western countries, but they were too dangerous for China, which was currently extremely weak and poor.
Yan Jue did not have much time. She could not recruit too many troops with her Reputation Points, but she could work with her allies. With everyone's rallying power, countless compatriots would take up their guns and fight against the invaders together.
As for her future path, she had not thought about it yet. After all, the war had just begun for her. As a newbie, she needed time to grow up and adapt to this era. She needed to adapt to being a leader who would not make mistakes and lead the nation to prosperity again.
"Commander, the honeymoon period will end. Once it ends, it will be a scene of war. Actually, it wasn't just me, the Guild Leader and the others were also worried.”
Leng Mei's voice was very low, making it easy for people to hear what she or they were worried about.
"Don't worry, cooperation is cooperation. I won't be taken in by them. Moreover, they can't afford to take me in. I won't let you down.”
Yan Jue picked up the book and said firmly. She had too many secrets, so in this world, other than the clone army, she would never trust anyone 100%.
A person's greed had no bottom line. Once he got a little, he would want more. A hundred people, a hundred Harry Potters, she understood this logic.
"Commander, the clone army will always be your sharpest sword and shield.”
"Okay, go down and talk to them."
"Yes, Commander."
Cold Mei saluted and walked out of the hall confidently.
In the dining hall, the soldiers of the Eighth Route Army opened their bellies and ate like crazy. An hour later, everyone's stomach was like a woman who was pregnant for six months. It was obvious that they were a little stuffed.
"Chief of Staff, this independent division is too generous. Not only can they afford pork, but they can also afford mutton and beef. Even Old Jiang's troops had never received such treatment.”
"Yes, Chief of Staff. Just now, I went to talk to the chef in the kitchen. Their staple food is usually rice, white steamed buns, corn cakes, and so on.
They ate raw meat for almost every meal. They were really rich. Who knew where the female commander got so much money to let the army squander so much.”
"Alright, let's not talk about this. When you're full, get up and walk around. Don't eat too much.”
The Left Chief of Staff stopped them from continuing. Because it was taboo. These were all other people's secrets. As outsiders, how could they casually discuss them?
Dada... Footsteps sounded again. In a few minutes, a cold figure appeared in the dining room.
"Chief of Staff Zuo, are you full? If you're full, I'll take you to your resting room. You can take a shower or go to bed.”
"Alright, we're full. Thank you for your hospitality, Commander.”
"Alright, please follow me."
Leng Mei nodded and led the way out.
