Chapter 66: Chiyang Town Copper Mine! (Please read on) "Who? Password!" "Let him go! It's Captain Qin!" Qin Yangming had just arrived at Yang Village on horseback when he was stopped by a sentry. Before Qin Yangming could speak, a sentry immediately ran over and asked the sentry who was blocking the way to let him pass. "That's Captain Qin of the Vanguard Battalion. Remember, in our area, apart from him, no one else has this size." …… "Captain, commander!" Li Yunlong was chatting with Kong Jie and was talking about a big gift package that Ding Wei was going to give him, but it was snatched away by Qin Yangming. Hearing Qin Yangming's loud voice, Li Yunlong quickly replied. "Come in!"
"Captain, we are going to get rich!" "What do you mean you got rich? Did you find another arsenal?" "No, Captain, it's a gold mine, gold!" Hearing this, Li Yunlong, who was about to pour some wine for Qin Yangming, raised his head. Kong Jie, who was chewing peanuts, forgot that there was something in his mouth. If a military force wants to develop, it cannot just have weapons; money is also essential. When in Linyuan County, Qin Yangming and others seized all the money, except for precious metals such as gold, which were handed over to the brigade headquarters. The rest of the money was spent on a new regiment and the construction of fortifications. This gave him the capital to confront Kimura Shinjiro and Sakata. But after the great breakout, let alone the New 1st Regiment, the New 1st Regiment was no longer Li Yunlong's. The current Independent Regiment was only slightly stronger than the original New 1st Regiment. Li Yunlong naturally wanted to make money and then quickly develop his troops. Without money, there is no way to buy meat, mules and horses. Without meat, it would be difficult to provide soldiers with high-intensity training. Without mules and horses, the troops' marching speed would be limited, and the weapons and ammunition they carry would also be affected. "Drink, take a sip, and speak slowly." Li Yunlong stood up and helped Qin Yangming sit on the head of the kang. He personally handed the wine to him, then quickly turned around and went out to get the map. "Xiao Qin, what's the matter with the gold mine you mentioned?" Kong Jie swallowed the peanuts and asked Qin Yangming. "Come on, here's the map."
Li Yunlong pushed Kong Jie in with his butt, and then spread the map directly on the peanuts. Qin Yangming was not polite, he took the pencil and started drawing on it: "Duan Peng captured a few puppet soldiers and got the news. It is said that the Japanese have discovered a new mine in Chiyang Town, which is a copper mine and a gold mine! There was also a prisoner-of-war camp with about a thousand captured soldiers." "I heard that a batch of ore has been dug up and then initially refined." "Captain, I looked at the map and found that Chiyang Town is about 60 kilometers away from us. If our vanguard battalion takes action, It’s a long trip, and we can be back in about a day!” Li Yunlong and Kong Jie looked at the map and made an estimate in their minds. "Old Li, let's give it a try. The Vanguard Battalion will launch a surprise attack, and I will lead the First Battalion to support them." "How many enemies are there in Chiyang Town? Have you found out?" "A squadron of Japanese soldiers and a battalion of puppet troops." "Duan Peng and his team looked around and found that the nearest county to Chiyang Town was Xianchi County, but it would take at least an hour for the Japanese soldiers in Xianchi County to get there!" "I am confident that the battle can be over in half an hour!" "Old Li, if we can really resolve the battle so quickly, then we can definitely beat him. The meat is right in front of us, why shouldn't we eat it?" Kong Jie looked at the map with excitement in his eyes. "Well, as long as Xiao Qin can finish the battle within an hour and send people to fight for reinforcements, maybe we can bring back all the ore!" "With money, our independent group will be able to develop rapidly!" After Kong Jie finished speaking, he said to Li Yunlong with some concern: "Old Li, don't we have to hand over the gold? We used it ourselves, are you sure it's okay?" Li Yunlong rolled his eyes at Kong Jie and said, "Kong Erlunzi, if I say you are an idiot, are you really an idiot?" "Of course the gold must be handed over to the brigade headquarters, but don't forget, our goal is the prisoner-of-war camp!" "We attacked a mine and rescued a group of prisoners..." "Hey, Li Yunlong, you kid." Listening to what Li Yunlong said and looking at his sneaky smile, Kong Jie immediately understood the other party's plan. He was definitely going to hand over all the gold, and then keep all the seized weapons and equipment, the money, and the ordinary soldiers in the prisoner-of-war camp. "If that's the case, then Old Li, let me lead a battalion to pick up Xiao Qin." Li Yunlong looked at Kong Jie with disdain. "Why are you thinking of beautiful things?" "Who is the leader of the independent group?" "Hey, Li Yunlong, why do you take my kindness for granted?"
"We secretly mobilized two battalions of troops without telling our superiors. If they blame us, we will both be in big trouble." Li Yunlong knew what Kong Jie wanted to do just by looking at his expression. Kong Jie, this honest boy, is no match for Li Yunlong, this cunning fox. "Kong Erlangzi, then we have to talk it out face to face." "This batch of oceans, weapons and equipment, and prisoners of war is not just a bag of cigarettes. Whoever smokes it will smoke it. Even though you and I are brothers from the same class, I think it’s better for us to settle accounts clearly as brothers. Let me be frank with you. As the deputy head of the group, you are just a temporary worker in my company. I might be transferred to another post someday, so I'll make it clear that you can't attack my troops when the time comes." Kong Jie took the cigarette Qin Yangming handed to him and spoke a little embarrassedly. "Look at what you said. If two brothers do business, even if they make a profit, it should belong to both of them. Even if they split up in the future, it should be half for each of them, right?" "Don't worry, I'll only take what belongs to me." Qin Yangming, who was standing aside, was chewing peanuts and drinking Fenjiu, which Li Yunlong got from somewhere. I didn’t expect that not only could I drink, but I could also watch a live broadcast. "Okay, okay, I understand. Let's stop here." "Just pretend we didn't say anything." "From now on, I will arrange the next work as the head of the group." "Hey, Li Yunlong, Xiao Qin, look, this old Li is a Pixiu, he only takes in and never gives out." "Xiao Qin, how about this? Look how generous I am. If I am transferred someday, I will write a report and you can follow me. How about that?" When Qin Yangming saw that Kong Jie brought the conversation to himself, he was also stunned. "Oh my god, how did I eat the melon and end up eating myself?" Li Yunlong originally wanted to say something. But I didn't expect Kong Jie to resort to the trick of cutting off the source of the problem. Qin Yangming is a capable man. I'm afraid no one in the entire regiment, or even the entire division, has the ability to handle equipment like Qin Yangming. With Qin Yangming around, Li Yunlong was confident that he could build an independent regiment that would be stronger than the New 1st Regiment within half a year. Now seeing Kong Jie actually starting to poach his people right in front of him, Li Yunlong could no longer sit still. "Kong Erleng! You fucking robbed my old place!" "Twenty percent, the most I can give you is twenty percent!" "You have to take away a whole company's worth of equipment. If you try to rob my lair again, don't blame me, Old Li, for being merciless!"
"Hahaha." Looking at Li Yunlong who was so angry that he slammed the table, Kong Jie smiled smugly: "Hey, Lao Li, who are we following? I won’t thank you much.” "Besides, with Xiao Qin's contributions, I'm afraid that when I get promoted, Xiao Qin will be the head of the group." Although Kong Jie is honest, it doesn't mean he is not smart. Not only did he get a lot of wealth from Li Yunlong, but he also got an unexpected surprise and also helped Li Yunlong. "Hahaha, Lao Li, I'm going to go take a rest first. When the troops set out, ask someone to call me." Kong Jie also understood that if he didn't leave, he would probably be beaten by Li Yunlong, so he quickly got down from Qin Yangming's position. If you get the advantage, then leave early. It is not easy to get the advantage from Li Yunlong. "Well, Captain, I'm leaving too. I need to go and prepare. We'll set out around noon tomorrow and arrive at the target's perimeter in the evening for a night raid." Qin Yangming looked at Li Yunlong with eyes as bright as copper bells, and quickly stood up to say goodbye. Watching the two people leaving, Li Yunlong was very depressed. He had always been the one who took advantage of others, but he didn't expect that he would be taken advantage of today. "Kong Erlangzi, Kong Erlangzi, you have really learned a lot, and you dare to knock on my bamboo pole." After seeing Qin Yangming leave, Li Yunlong poured all the wine in the other two people's bowls into his own bowl and drank it all in one gulp. Then he called Hu Zi to come and clean up and prepare to rest. Please don’t just keep the book to yourself, but read it later. (End of this chapter)
