"Xiao Zhou, you should eat something too. You're welcome."

In fact, the guard Xiao Zhou had just eaten a piece, but after hearing the call, he couldn't help it and picked up another piece and stuffed it into his mouth.

There wasn't much oil residue in the bowl to begin with, and after four people each ate a few pieces, there was nothing left.

However, no matter how delicious it is, people will resist the urge to eat it. In fact, it is a bit of a waste to eat the oil residue like this.

The biggest use of this kind of oil residue is in cooking. As long as you put a dozen pieces in a pot, basically without adding oil, it is a top-notch delicacy and very nutritious.

At night, everyone in the independent regiment had the most lucrative meal of their lives.

Even many years later, old members of the independent regiment would occasionally mention that the oil residue from that day was the most delicious in the world.

The next morning, Li Yunlong led the transport team to the brigade headquarters and the General Logistics Department.

At this time, Minister Zhang was in big trouble. As the army's steward, he was busy every day, but he could not solve the fundamental problem of the army's shortage of supplies.

The biggest reason for this phenomenon is that our troops are too poor and cannot even guarantee the most basic cloth and food.

Fortunately, during this period, Li Yunlong and Lao Chen of the 386th Brigade won several battles and handed over a lot of supplies to the headquarters.

Although the Japanese soldiers' uniforms and quilts were too short to be worn directly, they could still be altered. This solved the uniform problem for tens of thousands of people at once, and each regiment could get at least 100 to 180 sets of new uniforms and quilts.

"Oh, it's difficult. This world is really difficult. Where can I get so many supplies?"

Minister Zhang looked at the reports submitted by the various troops. They all came to ask for something. Some asked for weapons and ammunition, some asked for food, and some asked for military uniforms and bedding.

In short, the troops below want everything, and they are not picky, as long as they can be used, they will do.

He rubbed his swollen eyes and sighed in his heart.

"The commanders below really think the logistics department is a god. Everyone is concerned about these few small things, and it's not appropriate to give them to anyone."

At this time, the guard Xiao Huang pushed the door and walked in with a bowl in his hand.

"Chief, it's time for lunch."

After saying this, he put a bowl of porridge on the desk and took out a steamed bun made of mixed grains from his pocket.

When Minister Zhang saw this, he frowned and said unhappily:

"Xiao Huang, I have told you many times that the army's supplies are tight. We are logistics personnel and can only eat a few sweet potatoes every day. We must save the precious food for the front-line combat troops. Only when the soldiers are full will they have the strength to fight the Japanese."

Xiao Huang was unmoved by the criticism from his leader, but instead said stubbornly:

"Commander, you are not in good health. Your old stomach problem has come back. Director Zhang of the headquarters hospital has specifically instructed you to eat some solid food occasionally, but not to eat sweet potatoes every day."

"Don't worry, these are the food that our guards have saved. They don't take up anyone's rations."

"For your health's sake, eat something."

While the two were talking, Li Yunlong walked in. He saw a bowl of porridge on the table and felt a little thirsty.

I saw him pick it up and drink it down in a few gulps.

"Great, Lao Zhang, the porridge cooked by your logistics department tastes pretty good."

When guard Xiao Huang saw this, his eyes widened and he looked at Li Yunlong with anger.

"Captain Li, how can you be like this? This is the commander's lunch. He is not in good health and needs to eat something nutritious."

After saying this, he took the steamed bread on the table in his hand, fearing that someone would snatch it away again.

Li Yunlong smiled and complained unhappily:

"How stingy! It's just a bowl of porridge, why is there such a big reaction?"

"By the way, Lao Zhang, speaking of nutritious things, I brought some here, just in time for you to try."

Then he took out an oil-paper bag from his pocket, opened it, put it on the table, and displayed the contents.

After seeing the things, Minister Zhang was surprised and said:

"It's actually oil residue. This is a rare commodity. Li Yunlong, where did you get this good stuff?"

"Don't worry about this, just taste it first."

After saying that, he rolled his eyes, grabbed two pieces of oil residue and put them into the guard Xiao Huang's hand, and took the steamed bread down at the same time.

"Xiao Huang, I have something to discuss with Minister Zhang. Please go out first."

Minister Zhang also knew that there would be important matters to discuss later, so he asked the guard to leave first.

Li Yunlong broke the steamed bread into two halves and said politely:

"Come on, Lao Zhang, let's eat the oil residue with the steamed bread. I tell you, this is delicious."

Minister Zhang found it hard to refuse the kind offer, so he took the steamed bread and picked up a piece of oil residue to taste it.

I have to say that this way of eating is definitely novel and can be considered a delicacy.

However, after eating two pieces, he refused to eat any more.

"Li Yunlong, I've tasted it, and it's really delicious. I'll accept your gift. It just so happens that the heads of the headquarters are also in poor health due to malnutrition."

"We logistics personnel are fine, but the leaders have to stay up late every day to command the battle, and they just need this kind of good stuff to replenish themselves."

After he finished speaking, he put the whole bag of oil residue into the drawer of the desk.

Seeing this, Li Yunlong could only finish the steamed bread in his hand, and then said with a serious expression:

"Has the supply of materials in the Logistics Department reached such a tight point?"

"Li Yunlong, to be honest, facing the joint blockade of the Japanese and the stubborn army, many urgently needed supplies cannot be brought in at all."

"If Lao Chen hadn't surrendered a lot of weapons, ammunition and daily supplies some time ago, allowing us to breathe a little, the situation would have been even worse."

"Many departments are in a difficult situation right now, and everyone is gritting their teeth and persevering. I also know that it is a bit inappropriate to ask you at this time, but there is really no other way. If you have extra supplies, I hope you can provide more support to the headquarters."

In response to his fellow villager's words, Li Yunlong fell into deep thought. He only became more financially comfortable after Kong Hao came. It seemed that he would need to get more supplies in the future.

"Xiao Zhou, hurry up and move all the things in for me."

After the things arrived, Li Yunlong personally opened the lid of the jar.

When Minister Zhang saw the milky white solid inside, he took a deep breath and immediately showed an intoxicated expression.

"My God, it's so rare to see such a large jar of pure lard these days."

"Li Yunlong, where did you get all these good things?"

"And the most important thing is that this doesn't fit your character. You always take in and never give out. You always hide away any good things you have. Why are you willing to take them out today?"

Suddenly, Minister Zhang thought of something and said jokingly:

"It seems that you have something to ask for today, and it's a big deal, otherwise you wouldn't be willing to spend so much money."

"Tell me, I will try to help you as long as I can."
