Bright Sword Military System

Chapter 666 Compensation
Lieutenant Colonel Doolittle was sent to Yuncheng on No.20 three days.

Li Yunlong originally planned to discuss with Doolittle immediately when he received Doolittle about keeping some of the pilots, but he did not expect Doolittle to tell Sun Erwei just after he arrived in Yuncheng: "I need to rest, there is a bed for me to sleep on for a while." Do you feel it?"

"Of course, Lieutenant Colonel!" Sun Erwei replied, and then took Doolittle to his dormitory, and then prepared some bread and cakes for him.

These breads and cakes were made by the chef brought by Sun Erwei.

Because Sun Erwei had several experiences of cooperating with the Eighth Route Army, he knew that the life of the Eighth Route Army was difficult. In order to adapt to the life here, one of the correspondents he brought had worked as a cook.

As for the materials for making bread and cakes, they are actually flour and eggs. Of course, they don't lack these things if they have US dollars.

After Lieutenant Colonel Doolittle thanked Sun Erwei with a "wow", he gorged himself on the bed and fell into a deep sleep.

Li Yunlong was surprised when he saw this scene. He asked the guerrillas who escorted Doolittle: "What's the matter with you? Are you starving Yingjiang pilot like this?"

The guerrillas replied helplessly: "Commander, there is nothing we can do. We don't know that foreign devils are not used to eating sweet potatoes, and that's all we have!"

As he spoke, he took out a few dried sweet potatoes from his bosom, sniffled his nose, picked one out of them, put it in his mouth, chewed it, and said, "It tastes really good, commander, would you like to try it?"

As he said that, he really handed it over to Li Yunlong.

Li Yunlong didn't know what to say. It's no wonder that Doolittle and other pilots were so tired. It's a strange thing for these pampered Yingjiang soldiers to eat dried sweet potatoes for more than [-] days without making their stomachs upset.

Li Yunlong really guessed right about this matter. Although the pilots of Yingjiang were safe and sound along the way, they almost collapsed on the road one by one.

In fact, this is not to blame the guerrillas.

You must know that these are guerrillas who came out of enemy-occupied areas.

Needless to say what the situation in the enemy-occupied areas is, they not only have to do heavy labor, but all the food and pasta are robbed by the devils, what they eat is the "common noodles" distributed by the devils, and what they wear is "renewal cloth"... … There are a few sweet potatoes that are dried into dried sweet potatoes to make dry food. They are all grown secretly on the mountain, which can be regarded as a delicacy for the guerrillas.

But Eagle Sauce Pilot, it’s not all delicious beef bread. It’s okay to eat dried sweet potatoes for a day or two. I played like this every day for more than [-] days. That is common sense.

Doolittle did not wake up until noon the next day, when more than ten pilots gathered in Yuncheng.

After Doolittle ate something, he asked Sun Erwei: "How many people survived?"

"At present, there are about 30 people known!" Sun Erwei replied.

"Oh!" Doolittle was a little surprised, and asked, "Were all of them rescued by the Eighth Route Army?"

"Yes, Lieutenant Colonel!" Sun Erwei replied: "The area where we forced to land is an enemy-occupied area, and the recalcitrant army is the regular Chinese army, which cannot play a role in this area."

"But..." Doolittle still couldn't believe it: "Why are there people from the Eighth Route Army everywhere in the enemy-occupied area?"

Sun Erwei laughed: "They are everywhere, Lieutenant Colonel! If you stay here for a while, you will soon understand what's going on!"

Du Lite nodded, vaguely realizing the resilience of the Eighth Route Army.

At this time Li Yunlong came in with Wang Xuexin and Zhao Gang.

Although Zhao Gang was in charge of Xiaobeiling's weaving factory, the weaving factory was already on the right track at this time, and he, the political commissar, needed to participate in the Yingjiang pilot's matter, so he rushed back from Xiaobeiling.

As soon as Li Yunlong entered the door, he shook Doolittle's hand with a smile, and said, "Comrade Lieutenant Colonel, welcome to come. You have worked hard during this time. On this condition, the hospitality is not good enough!"

Sun Erwei translated Li Yunlong's words to Doolittle, and Doolittle immediately replied: "Comrade commander, I should thank you! Your army has made great efforts and sacrifices to save us from the enemy! On behalf of The Yingjiang government expresses its gratitude to you!"

Then Doolittle added: "As for the loss of your army this time, I will give a detailed report to my superiors. I believe that our government will compensate you as much as possible! This is a good example of our cooperation in the war of resistance." The beginning of it, isn't it?"

"Of course, of course!" Li Yunlong replied with a smile, then changed the subject and said, "Comrade Lieutenant Colonel, can I make some requests regarding this compensation?"

Without waiting for Doolittle to reply, Li Yunlong waved his hand again and said, "Don't get me wrong, I'm not bargaining with you. Let's cooperate to fight devils, right? What we give to each other should be what they need urgently, such as me There is no shortage of sweet potatoes, and it would be inappropriate for you to forcefully give us compensation!"

Wang Xuexin was convinced after hearing this, but Li Yunlong actually used sweet potatoes as a metaphor. Isn't this the Doolittle who ate dried sweet potatoes for [-] days on purpose?

Sure enough, the haggard Doolittle's expression changed, as if he wanted to spit out the bread he had just eaten.

However, these words are not rough, and cooperation in wartime should really pay attention to efficiency and "take what they need".

So Doolittle nodded and said, "So, what do you need? I'll put them in my report and try to get them for you!"

"Airplane!" Li Yunlong replied without thinking, "Of course there are pilots!"

Doolittle froze for a moment, then laughed: "Sorry, Captain Li. It's not that I don't want to write your request in the report, but I think our government will not agree to your request. Your I can understand the mood, but aircraft...they are not simply able to take off, forming an air force is not as simple as you think!"

Li Yunlong winked at Wang Xuexin who was behind him, and Wang Xuexin stepped forward and said, "We know this, Lieutenant Colonel Doolittle!"

Wang Xuexin took out a document from his backpack and handed it to Doolittle: "So we have a whole set of plans, including airport construction, supporting radar, and the introduction of pilots, etc."

Doolittle took the report and opened it, and was surprised to find that it was actually in English.

This report was drafted by Wang Xuexin, and then sent a correspondent to the three stores for Su Xin to translate, and then sent back.

Wang Xuexin originally planned to ask Sun Erwei to do this, but after asking, he found out that Sun Erwei could not understand Chinese...

He said this: "Although I can speak Huaxia dialect, Huaxia characters are all different, and they are all kinds of strange things. It is really difficult to remember! Sorry, I can't help you!"

Therefore, Wang Xuexin had no choice but to let Su Xin do this.

It is said that Su Xin lost her temper when she received the document. She said to the correspondent, "Why doesn't Xiaodongbei himself come? He didn't send it himself, so don't look it up!"
