Chapter 73 Giving Old Li a Blood Salvage
Dragon Kingdom military camp.
As soon as Zhang Yan entered the military camp, he saw a rough-looking man grinning foolishly at a horse, stroking its head repeatedly with his large, rough hands.
Behind him, many soldiers were leading horses, feeding them grass, or giving them water.
One of the younger soldiers patted the horse's back, and as soon as he mounted, he heard a shout.
"Hey kid, what are you trying to do? It's only been a few days and you're already thinking about getting on a horse? Believe me or not, I'll beat you up."
"Company Commander Sun, I've gotten quite familiar with Big Yellow these past two days. If I don't ride it for a day, it gets really uncomfortable."
Sun Desheng picked up the horsewhip, stepped forward, raised it to strike, and said.
“It’s not training time, you can’t ride the horse. These are military horses, not your own cattle, you can’t just ride them whenever you want.”
The young soldier immediately dismounted, but was still whipped. He said aggrievedly.
"Yes!"
"Company Commander Sun, what are you doing?"
Zhang Yan hurriedly stepped forward and stopped Sun Desheng from striking with his whip again.
"Brother Zhang, you're back."
Sun Desheng turned around and saw Zhang Yan. He put down his riding whip, raised his saber, and gave Zhang Yan a knightly salute.
Then he pointed his riding crop at the soldiers and spoke.
"These little brats don't know any rules. They'll get itchy if I don't give them a good beating every day."
Zhang Yan knew he wasn't referring to the soldiers, but rather wanted Zhang Yan to see the warhorses.
"Alright, I know you, the cavalry company commander, have a horse now. Where is the regimental commander?"
"Hehe, at this hour, the commander should be in his room. He's been in a great mood these past few days; I see him smiling every day."
Sun Desheng straightened his military cap with his hand and chuckled.
"Okay, I'll head over there then."
After Zhang Yan finished speaking, he went straight to the house where Li Yunlong was. As soon as he entered the courtyard, he heard Li Yunlong's laughter.
"Hahaha, we've really struck it rich this time, enough equipment for an entire cavalry battalion!"
"And this Taoist priest delivered ammunition, so we can finally be rich local tycoons in the mountain stream."
Zhang Yan listened to Li Yunlong's words and went into the house, where he saw Zhang Huaiyi was also there.
Moreover, there was a bowl of wine in front of Zhang Huaiyi, which was probably the sweet potato liquor that Li Yunlong often used to make empty promises.
"Oh my, Master Zhang is back! What did you bring today?"
"Hey, hey, this wine is for Master Zhang, why are you being so impolite?"
Li Yunlong sat casually on the earthen bed and pointed at Zhang Yan as he spoke.
"Hey Lao Li, do you feel like you're missing out if I come here without bringing something?"
Zhang Yan finished the bowl of sweet potato liquor in one gulp and then spoke.
"Hehe, no way..."
Just as Li Yunlong was about to say something more, he heard the guard report.
"Report, a call from the brigade headquarters."
"Oh dear, I need to take this call. We'll talk in a bit."
Li Yunlong quickly got up and walked towards the command post.
"Hey, Lao Li, wait for me, I have something to tell you."
Zhang Yan wanted to tell him that Liang Ting had probably killed most of the Japanese soldiers in the mountains, and that he should hurry up and pick up the rest.
The command post was right next to Li Yunlong's residence. He didn't even need to leave the courtyard. Li Yunlong didn't try to hide anything from Zhang Yan and immediately started making a phone call.
"Brigade Commander, this is Li Yunlong."
"Li Yunlong, congratulations on your fortune!"
Upon hearing this, Zhang Yan immediately perked up and pricked up his ears.
"What kind of fortune are you talking about? We're so poor we're practically begging for food."
Li Yunlong immediately started complaining about being poor and gave Zhang Yan a helpless look.
"Let me tell you, I'll find out the very next day. Tell me honestly, how much did you really profit from this time?"
"No, it's just the equipment for one cavalry battalion. I'm planning to form a cavalry battalion."
"You want to form a cavalry battalion with just your regiment? Then should my entire brigade form a cavalry regiment?"
"Well, you should, you should. Given your reputation as a brigade commander, it wouldn't be too much to get a cavalry division."
Li Yunlong wanted to brush it off, but the brigade commander spoke up directly.
"Stop talking nonsense. You leave behind a company's worth of horses and equipment, and send the rest to the brigade headquarters."
Li Yunlong's face immediately fell.
"What are you doing, brigade commander? Are you robbing me? You might as well just shoot me! No, no, absolutely not!"
"Alright then, let's have a talk about this: you moved troops without permission."
Upon hearing this, Li Yunlong immediately became furious and no longer cared about Zhang Yan standing to the side.
“I used to be like that. Hey, brigade commander, you agreed to it, so you can’t go back on your word.”
"Stop talking nonsense. You have two options: either you send me the horses and equipment, or I'll report to headquarters that you've mobilized troops without authorization."
This time, Li Yunlong really couldn't fool anyone anymore and had to admit defeat.
"Oh dear, I was too hasty. Fine, fine, brigade commander, I admit it. If you want to rob someone, just say so. Why make up these excuses?"
Upon hearing that Li Yunlong had finally relented, the person on the other end of the phone smiled and continued.
"I won't make excuses, can you give it to me? I'm telling you, why are you acting like a nouveau riche from the mountains? A grown man like you, so stingy. Bye."
When Li Yunlong heard the other end of the phone hang up, he collapsed and said to Zhang Yan.
"The horses and equipment of a cavalry battalion, sigh, they haven't even been warmed up yet."
"Tell me, Xiao Zhang, in this situation, do you think I wouldn't ask you for something?"
Goodness, the roots of this tradition are here! But this also shows that the Dragon Kingdom's army is really short of equipment right now.
Under such circumstances, they were still able to fight the Japanese troops on equal terms, all thanks to their faith and burning passion.
At this moment, Li Yunlong's eyes were practically green with envy. He absolutely couldn't tell him what was happening in the dense forest, otherwise Zhang Yan would never see him again.
"Old Li, did you get anything out of that plate?"
Zhang Yan spoke up, ignoring Li Yunlong's complaints, and went straight to asking about the contents of the interrogation.
"We got a lot of information out of them, but most of it was outdated. The Japanese defenses had changed long ago."
"However, there are two things that are interesting. One is that old bastard Hirata Ichiro is going to hold a birthday banquet at Juxianlou."
"Chu Yunfei should know by now, so let's go and join in the fun."
When Chu Yunfei was mentioned, Li Yunlong smiled, perked up a bit, and continued.
"That female spy, guess how much ammo I traded? Hehe, five Type 96 rifles plus eight boxes of bullets."
"Good, good, you're amazing, Lao Li. Now, tell me the next thing."
Zhang Yan urged hurriedly.
"There's another one, related to your world of supernatural beings. A sect in the county town, called something like the Blazing Fire Sect, led a group of rogues to secretly defect to the enemy."
"Taking advantage of Hirata Ichiro's birthday party, they also set up some kind of Co-Prosperity Sphere, in a large compound in the east of the city."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Yan frowned deeply. Those Japanese devils deserved to die, and those who betrayed their country and turned against their own people deserved an even worse fate.
However, this is an opportunity, a chance for Liang Tingshuang.
"Kid, I know you're skilled. Want to help me hold off those superhumans?"
Li Yunlong asked directly.
"Okay."
Zhang Yan agreed without hesitation, then picked up the map on the table and began to speak.
"Old Li, I can help you recover some health at the cavalry camp. But I didn't bring anything with me this time, so you'll have to go get it yourself."
Upon hearing this, Li Yunlong immediately understood what was going on and put on a smiling face.
“Master Zhang, please sit down and talk. I’m getting tired of standing here all the time.”
