Chapter 99 Li Yunlong also noticed Qian Bojun
"Brother Yunlong, everyone in Northwest Shanxi knows that you are the one who likes to eat alone the most. If there is a good opportunity to make a fortune, will you think of me? I am afraid that it may not be a way to make a fortune, but you will drag me into the fire pit with you, right?"
Yang Lin looked at Li Yunlong with contempt. He didn't believe that the other party was so kind.
Li Yunlong laughed: "Brother Yang Lin, look at what you said, who do you think I am? We are brothers who have fought for our lives on the battlefield. How can I not think of you first when something good happens?"
"Really?" Yang Lin looked up and down at Li Da's head in front of him, still a little unconvinced, and said, " I'm afraid you can't finish it all by yourself, brother?"
“Hehehehe!”
Li Yunlong smiled awkwardly and said, "Brother Yang Lin, since you already know everything, I won't hide it from you."
"Indeed, with the current strength of our independent group, it is difficult to make this big deal."
"However, if I spread the news, there are people willing to join us, such as Ding Wei from the New 1st Group."
"But why didn't I tell him, but instead thought of you, Brother Yang Lin, first?"
"Because I treat you as my brother, because we have a life-and-death friendship, and because you supported me with weapons and equipment, I am grateful to you from the bottom of my heart!"
Although Li Yunlong's words were heartfelt, Yang Lin knew that the reason why this guy was not called Ding Wei was definitely because the New 1st Regiment was not strong enough.
As for friendship, he did have some friendship with the other party, but could that be compared with the comradeship between him and Ding Wei for more than ten years?
Of course, Yang Lin also wanted to know what business Li Yunlong was talking about, so he saw through it but didn't say anything. He asked, "Brother Yunlong, you are so mysterious. What kind of business is this to make money? Tell me about it!"
Li Yunlong turned his head and glanced around, then lowered his voice and said, "Brother Yang Lin, this is not the place to talk. Let's go to your battalion headquarters and talk."
After a pause, Li Yunlong seemed to think of something, and then continued: "By the way, my brothers have come from afar and haven't even had a sip of water along the way. Can you treat them?"
"You don't have to eat too well, just two pounds of braised pork per person will be fine!"
Hearing this, Yang Lin couldn't help but seriously doubt whether Li Yunlong was looking for him to form a partnership or to make a living.
However, Yang Lin also wanted to know what the other party was up to.
So he nodded and said to the monk beside him: "Monk, they are guests from afar. The task of entertaining these Eighth Route Army brothers is given to you . Ask the kitchen team to load more potatoes and entertain them well."
The monk asked in confusion, "Captain, aren't we cooking braised pork?"
Yang Lin glared and said: "Do we have any meat in our independent camp? We are so poor that we can hardly afford to eat.
Do you think they will cut off some of your flesh and cook it for them to eat?"
Although the monk was simple-minded, he was not stupid. He quickly understood what the battalion commander Yang Lin meant, so he nodded and said, "Okay, I understand!"
Li Yunlong looked at Yang Lin with disdain and said, "Brother Yang Lin, you are a big independent camp owner, but you let us eat potatoes. Isn't that too stingy?"
Yang Lin pretended to be embarrassed and said: "Brother Yunlong, you don't know how poor our independent camp is. We can hardly make ends meet.
These potatoes are our precious treasures that we have saved for half a month and are reluctant to eat them.
It's you, Brother Yunlong. If it were anyone else, let alone potatoes, there wouldn't even be any potato skins."
"How about this? After the deal is done, we can treat the brothers of your independent regiment well when our conditions are better. What do you think?"
Li Yunlong could see what Yang Lin was thinking. He knew that this guy was just like himself, a guy who would not release the eagle until he saw the rabbit. He immediately began to despise him in his heart.
But on second thought, being able to eat a full meal of potatoes is considered a good treatment for the independent regiment at the moment.
After all, if it weren’t for the few small victories they had just won, even drinking porridge would have been a luxury for the Independent Regiment.
Still want potatoes? There are no peels.
So, Li Yunlong could only nod: "Okay!"
Then Li Yunlong walked up to the Eighth Route Army company commander and said to him in a low voice, "You can eat as much as you want later. Pack up what you can't finish. Whether it's potatoes, steamed buns or rice, take away everything you can. Just treat these things as your own. Don't be embarrassed. Do you understand?"
"Understood!" the company commander nodded.
After explaining, Li Yunlong came close to Yang Lin again. He did not look like a guest at all, as if he regarded himself as one of his own. He said, "Brother Yang Lin, let's go."
"Brother Yunlong, please!"
Yang Lin stretched out his hand and made a reply please gesture, and then the two of them walked towards the camp headquarters together.
A few minutes later, the two arrived at the battalion headquarters and sat down together.
Yang Lin took out a cigarette, first threw one to Li Yunlong, then took out another one and put it in his own mouth and lit it.
"Brother Yunlong, now can you tell me what the way to make money is?"
Yang Lin asked as he slowly blew out the smoke ring from his mouth.
Li Yunlong did not answer but asked: "Brother Yang Lin, you are familiar with Qian Bojun of the 358th Regiment, right?"
"Of course I know Qian Bojun, the damned one. The last time my independent battalion was attacked by the Japanese, it must have been him who was secretly behind the attack. Otherwise, how could the Japanese pass through his defense zone and get to Luotuo Ridge ?"
It would have been fine if Li Yunlong didn't mention it, but as soon as he mentioned Qian Bojun, Yang Lin's anger suddenly rose.
He not only knew Qian Bojun, he knew this damn traitor too well.
Li Yunlong took a puff of his cigarette and then slowly said, "During this period, the scouts of my independent regiment have been moving around. I have been observing Qian Bojun for several days. Recently, this guy has secretly met with the Japanese spies many times, and I have also noticed that his troops are frequently mobilized and martial law is imposed."
"Combined with the intelligence provided by our underground party comrades, I suspect that Qian Bojun is very likely to betray the 358th Regiment, and it should have happened in the past few days..."
Yang Lin was familiar with the plot of "Bright Sword". He had long known that Qian Bojun, this traitor, would sell out his country and become a traitor.
Even Chu Yunfei almost died in Qian Bojun's camp.
However, even though Qian Bojun's betrayal of his country would eventually become a fact, Yang Lin did not remind or hint Chu Yunfei to guard against the other party's plans.
Because Qian Bojun had fought with Chu Yunfei for more than 10 years, the two had already had a deep relationship between superiors and subordinates.
Besides, Chu Yunfei also trusts his subordinate Qian Bojun very much.
In Bright Sword, even though Chu Yunfei had received reliable intelligence that Qian Bojun was about to surrender to the enemy and sell out his country, he was still unwilling to believe this fact.
Therefore, Chu Yunfei would never doubt his old subordinate who had followed him for more than ten years just because of a few words from Yang Lin.
If Yang Lin revealed the details of Qian Bojun's upcoming rebellion to Chu Yunfei, the other party would not only not be grateful to him, but would even think that Yang Lin was trying to sow discord.
Therefore, it would be better for Yang Lin to subdue Qian Bojun when he rebelled and make a small fortune at the same time.
Then, he put out the cigarette in his hand and said slowly: "Oh? So Brother Yunlong, you have also noticed this kid Qian Bojun?"
