The door opened, and a tall young officer walked out surrounded by guards. Yu Xiao Qing sized him up. His military uniform was straight, his eyes were firm, and his face was full of arrogance.
Zhou Heng was also sizing up Yu Xiao Qing. The current Yu Xiao Qing was still an arrogant young officer, thinking about how to go abroad to fight the devils, not the black-bellied bureaucrat who could sit back and watch his comrades sacrifice their lives for the future.
"Colonel Yu, from the Sichuan Army?" Zhou Heng stepped forward and asked, pretending not to know the other party at all.
Jumping out of the jeep, Yu Xiao Qing straightened his military uniform with a stick in his hand. He was full of vigor. Yu Xiao Qing replied," I am Yu Xiao Qing. You should be Commander Zhou, right? Don't you know that Chan Da is the encampment of Master Yu? The soldiers here are also Master Yu's soldiers. Can you recruit them as you wish?"”
" So they're here to denounce us." Zhou Heng smiled coldly." Master Yu's encampment?" Why didn't I see Master Yu's troops appear at Chan Da? Did you leave the defense zone without permission? Colonel Yu, you left the defense zone without permission, did you just run away?”
"Bastard, how dare you insult our Guild Leader?”
After Zhou Heng finished his words, He Shuguang and Zhang Lixian who were behind Yu Xiao Qing were furious. They raised their guns and aimed at Zhou Heng. In their hearts, Yu Xiao Qing was simply the most perfect Shangguan. They would not allow Zhou Heng to insult him.
However, Zhou Heng's guards were not to be trifled with. They were all recruits that Zhou Heng had selected from the defeated soldiers and personally guided them in their training and learning. Zhou Heng was a senior officer and a teacher to them. Immediately, someone stood in front of Zhou Heng, while the others quickly surrounded Yu Xiao Qing and the others. The submachine guns in their hands were already loaded.
The atmosphere suddenly became extremely tense. If they were not careful and misfired, there would be no way to clean it up. Zhou Heng looked at Yu Xiaoqing and asked indifferently," Colonel Yu, what is the crime of pointing a gun at an officer? Isn't your subordinate too arrogant?”
"Put down the gun and go back to detention for ten days.”Yu Xiao Qing said sternly. Seeing the two of them put away their guns, he turned to look at Zhou Heng." Commander Zhou, it's always against the rules to recruit soldiers in my defense zone. I will definitely report this matter today."”
After saying that, he called He Shuguang and Zhang Lixian to get into the car and leave. However, Yu Xiaoqing, who got into the car, obviously didn't have the calmness from before. His face was ferocious as he said to Zhang Lixian, who was sitting behind him," Go back and report this matter to the division immediately. How dare he appear in my jurisdiction like this? He's too much. I'll teach him a lesson."”
Zhou Heng, who was standing at the entrance of the military camp, did not expect Yu Xiao Qing to leave so easily. He originally thought that he would have to continue arguing for a while.
"It's boring, it's really boring. You guys did a good job today. Next time he comes, do the same thing. Don't go overboard. He's a colonel after all.”Zhou Heng said with a smile. He didn't put Yu Xiao Qing in his eyes.
He turned around and returned to the camp. The soldiers were training on the training ground. Zhou Heng checked and returned to his command post. He saw Li Li standing at the entrance of the tent.
Zhou Heng was overjoyed to see Li Li. He quickly walked over and said," Li Li, you're back. Why didn't I see you come in?"”
" Leader, I'm back!" When Li Li saw Zhou Heng, he quickly went up to him and appeared very happy.
The two of them walked into the command post. Zhou Heng asked the guards to pour some water and asked Li Li to sit down. He then asked," How is it? How's the situation in Yu City?"”
The lack of talent gave Zhou Heng a headache. In addition, the only way to get the medicine was through Hong Shuting. Zhou Heng was also worried, so he asked Li Li to go to Yu City a month ago to recruit some talents and open up the medicine channel.
"The government is in Yucheng now. There are many high-ranking officials and nobles there. There are also many drugstores. I found more than ten drugstores and showed them samples. They are willing to come over every month to purchase goods.
As for the people you need, I have brought them back for you. There are four pilots, a few howitzers, and a messenger.”Li Li said excitedly.
"That's great. Haha, we finally got the talent.”With the talent in hand, the training of gunners and pilots could begin. There was no need to wait for Hong Shuting.
Last time, Hong Shuting had agreed to it so well, but no pilots or gunners had come. He must have known that his strength was expanding, so he was unwilling to bring people over. He was afraid that he would expand too fast and snatch the territory of the Dian Army.
" It's not hard. Regiment Commander, you didn't go to Yucheng, so you don't know the situation. The Japanese often bomb Yucheng. Yucheng is now in ruins. Many factories can't produce, farmers can't farm, and the lives of the people are miserable. Those pilots don't have planes and can only watch. And those gunners don't have cannons at all. The government doesn't plan to support them, so they were dismissed.”
Recalling his experience in Yu City, Li Li's expression was a little sorrowful. He never thought that his country would be destroyed to such an extent by the Japanese.
Patting Li Li's shoulder, Zhou Heng sighed and said," Give me a year's time. After a year, I'll definitely find a place for these suffering people to live and work in peace. If I can't do it by then, you can abandon me as a commander.”
"I believe you, sir. I've believed you since you saved me.”Li Li stood up excitedly and said.
"Alright, alright. Bring me to see those pilots and cannoneers first. They're our treasures!”Zhou Heng couldn't wait any longer.
