Redemption of WWII

Chapter 120 Five A Smoke

Liu Qi had both joy and hatred towards Cage and the bold men under his command. 【】The joy is that these guys are resourceful and brave, they are not intimidating in the face of those British troops, and dare to deal with those British troops at close range.

What I hate is that the methods of these guys are so insignificant, they don't look like orthodox soldiers at all.

But Liu Qi just forgot the original occupation of this group of people.De Niro and his gang were originally a group of well-known thieves.If you want them to look like regular soldiers, it will be even more difficult than reaching the sky.And Cage is an extremely confident guy, coupled with his small appearance and ridiculously cool appearance, it is impossible for Cage to stop pretending to be cool.

These people are living in the ordinary world, just like ordinary people.In their eyes, there is no distinction between legitimate means and illegitimate means.But still the old saying 'It doesn't matter whether a cat is black or white, as long as it catches mice, it's a good cat'.

Of course, Liu Qi didn't change his problem of asking the truth, and then asked De Niro, "Then where did the truck you drive come from? Don't you only have a Jeep that came from Major General Matthew's house?"

"Oh, Colonel, you asked about these two trucks. Our Boss Cage borrowed them from the officers of the British Army in the military supply warehouse." De Niro said.

"Borrowed? Why would the British army lend you your truck? Don't they suspect that there is nothing wrong with you picking up things even with your own truck?" Liu Qi asked.

"I'm not very clear about these things. Anyway, I saw Boss Cage talking to the officer of the British Army for a long time. One is that my English is not good, so I didn't understand it. Second, I was busy moving things at that time. Not good," De Niro said.

Liu Qi didn't ask Cage what he had said to the British officer, and the British soldier readily lent the truck to Cage and the others.But even if you don’t ask Liu Qi, you can guess that it’s pretty close. It must be that Cage is talking about the toilet fire. The quartermaster of the warehouse had to lend the truck to Cage and the others.

Thinking of this, Liu Qi said again, "Then did you come out directly after loading the car?"

"Yeah, after we loaded the car, we rushed back with these things in a hurry. But Boss Cage went to the office of the British Army Warehouse again." De Niro said.

"Why did Cage go to the British Army's office again?" Liu Qi asked with a frown.

"We are also very strange. But then Boss Cage said that he went to the British to get back the revised list of 'San'er'. He said that he was worried that the British would find out that the list had been tampered with. Then the British might We will be surprised, if we report it to the command of the British army, our future actions may be affected. Our boss Cage also said that without the list, the British would not dare to make a statement even if they found something wrong in the warehouse. At most, it’s just holding your nose and thinking you’re unlucky. There’s no way we’re going to take these things away,” De Niro said.

"Oh, why are the British doing this?" Liu Qi asked in confusion.

"Sir, you just arrived in Egypt. You don't know that the hearts of those quartermasters are dark and dark. I don't know how many military supplies have flowed from their hands to the black market outside. We and Boss Cage are because of They couldn’t get along with those quartermasters, and they all ended up in jail. We are very clear about this.” De Niro said.

Hearing what De Niro said, Liu Qi didn't quite agree.Liu Qi questioned and said, "Aren't you talking about all the troops?" Liu Qi's implication is that the atmosphere of your Italian army is not good, and the armies of other countries must be different from the Italian army.

No matter how stupid De Niro is, he can still hear the meaning of this sentence. This is what Liu Qi asked. If it were someone else, maybe De Niro would have slapped his face with his ears.But for Liu Qi, De Niro never dared to do this.De Niro said a little aggrieved, "Master, you look down on us Italians at this time, don't you?"

Seeing that De Niro was about to burst into tears, Liu Qiyi quickly comforted De Niro and said, "I don't mean to offend the Italians. And you are my brothers, how can I be offended."

When Liu Qi said that he was a brother, De Niro was relieved.Then he said, "Sir, you don't know. As far as I know, in the black market in North Africa, the things sold by our Italian military supplies only account for a small part. And the things in the other black markets are British and American products." Such as Indian black tea, American canned food, chewing gum. There are also a large number of light British weapons. Even the military uniforms of the British army can be bought on the black market. It can be said that what is in the military supply warehouses of the British army, the market You can buy anything.”

Liu Qiyu can only speak.Liu Qi didn't expect that the army of the British Empire would be like this.In fact, De Niro still has something to say.That is, some of the supplies of the German army actually flowed to the black market outside, but the amount was very small.

"These quartermasters colluded with local black market merchants and sold the military supplies at a high price. They made a lot of money from it. It can be said that the situation of the British army is worse than that of our army. But this is not the case. It's something that can't be controlled, and the commanders of that army have also taken a lot of benefits from these subordinates. In addition, during the battle, those commanders even turned a blind eye." De Niro said.

Liu Qi couldn't help asking strangely when he heard this, "Isn't it a time when military supplies are tight during combat? How could the commanders of the British army let those subordinates do this?"

"Hehe, the more you fight, the better the sales of military supplies. When calculating war losses, those commanders only need to add a zero to the top of the data. Then those items that are in stock without even opening the seal are sold to The black market. So the commanders of the British army generally like to fight, because only in this way can they make a fortune." De Niro said with emotion.

Hearing this, Liu Qi finally understood why Cage and De Niro's group would specifically attack the logistics department of the British army.This group of people obviously did this because they were extremely dissatisfied with the quartermasters in the army.Cage and De Niro's group took the anger of the unfair treatment they received in the Italian army on the heads of the British.

After explaining all this, De Niro took out a long object from his satchel and handed it to Liu Qi.Then he said, "School, these are the cigarettes that the person from the logistics warehouse gave us before we left. We are reluctant to smoke them. We know you like to smoke cigarettes, so they are specially reserved for you."

"Oh? Cigarettes? Not bad, I like it." Liu Qi was not polite, and immediately tore open the package of cigarettes, and took out one from inside.When putting the cigarette on his mouth, Liu Qi would habitually grope around his body.What is Liu Qi groping for?Of course it was to find a fire to light a cigarette.

During this period, Liu Qi wanted to smoke like crazy, but after arriving in Egypt, he had no chance to smoke at all.When he took down the convoy transporting curry from the British army for the first time, Liu Qi managed to get a few packs of cigarettes.But these cigarettes couldn't hold up to the consumption of Liu Qi's gang of smokers. Liu Qi hadn't smoked much yet, and a few packs of cigarettes were exhausted.

The last time Liu Qi got a few boxes of British Sanwu cigarettes when he took down the 'Ah Lyman' British army.But as soon as Liu Qi smoked a few cigarettes, he encountered a sandstorm, and then the cigarettes were all gone.After arriving at Saladin Castle, the tobacco here is the fruit-flavored hookah.It didn't suit Liu Qi's appetite at all, and Liu Qi didn't particularly like it.

However, Liu Qi groped around for a long time but couldn't find where the lighter was placed.Only then did Liu Qi remember that his lighter had been lost somewhere in the tornado.Just when Liu Qixin was feeling depressed, Cage came out beside him.Cage didn't say anything, just grabbed it with his hand, and a metal lighter appeared in Cage's hand.

Liu Qi said with all his heart, "Cage is such a stinky showman, I can't change it." But Liu Qi didn't say anything, and directly snatched the lighter from Cage's hand.The style of Liu Qiyi lighter is really good, and it feels good in the hand.The all-metal casing is printed with this big beauty in a three-point style.There is also a line of small characters next to it, which reads 'Lonson lighters, as soon as you hit it, and every time you hit it, you must wear it'.

Liu Qi lit the cigarette, took a deep breath with all his lung capacity, and then held his breath, letting the smell of roasted tobacco and nicotine fully affect his lungs.The instant feeling of lack of oxygen combined with the sensation of tobacco stimulation made Liu Qi extremely comfortable.

It took Liu Qi a long time to exhale the smoke from his lungs.Then he said to De Niro, "Yes, yes, American cigarettes are good. The strength of the cigarettes is quite strong. I accept this gift. In view of De Niro, you have completed this task very well, I decided to promote you You are a lieutenant officer of the Qingmeng Army. And your subordinates have also been promoted to second lieutenant officers. From now on, you will follow Captain Cage. I believe you are all doing well, and you will not let me down."

One cigarette changed the position of a lieutenant officer, and De Niro was overjoyed.Immediately excitedly said to Liu Qi, "Sir, you are so generous, I thank you on behalf of my father and mother." De Niro really regarded Liu Qi as a messenger of God, and even said the words to himself Both his father and mother ran out to thank Liu Qi together.

Hearing Liu Qi's appointment of Captain De Niro's rank, the other officers cast envious glances.In particular, the lieutenant officer who went to De Niro turned out to be exchanged for a cigarette. Of course, these people also looked somewhat disapproving.
