Chapter 69 Thank you, Sister-in-law Xiuqin

Of course, this is not the point. The point is that after successive battles, the soldiers of the independent regiment are also very tired. Although there is no need to rush, a day of high-intensity fighting will be unbearable. Of course, after a day of running, the war horses will naturally You also need to rest.

What's more, it's almost dark now, and the little devils will rest on the spot and enter a defensive state, so it will be even harder to deal with the little devils!

Under such circumstances, Li Yunlong gave up the idea of ​​continuing to fight!

Although it is far away from Zhaojiayu now, the cavalry is still relatively fast. Finally, it finally reaches Zhaojiayu before it gets completely dark!

However, at this time, the Zhaojiayu militiamen were a little confused when they saw more than a thousand Wuyang Wuyang cavalry rushing this way because of the weather!

Although they had long received notification from above that the independent regiment would be stationed in their Zhaojiayu after breaking through the siege, but according to their understanding, the independent regiment should only have one cavalry company!

Now look at so many cavalry, there is only one cavalry company! Could it be that this independent regiment is a cavalry regiment, not an infantry regiment? But when did the Eighth Route Army become so wealthy that they could afford a cavalry regiment?

Just when the militiamen on Zhaojiayu's side and Yang Xiuqin, the director of the Women's Rescue Association, who came to greet them, were uneasy, Zhao Gang on the Independent Group's side had already shouted:

"Comrades from Zhaojiayu are here, we are from the Eighth Route Independent Regiment!"

After hearing the familiar language, the Zhaojiayu militia captain and Yang Xiuqin finally felt relieved, and immediately led the Zhaojiayu militiamen out from behind the bunker to greet them!

At this time, the Independent Group also brought people to the entrance of the village. Li Yunlong, Zhao Gang and everyone in the Independent Group also dismounted!

At this time, the militia captain of Zhaojiayu stepped forward and introduced Li Yunlong, who was walking at the front:

"Captain Li, these are Zhaojiayu militiamen. This is Comrade Yang Xiuqin, the director of the Women's Rescue Association!"

When Li Yunlong heard the militia captain's introduction, he stretched out his hand to Yang Xiuqin and said:

"Hello, Comrade Yang Xiuqin!"

And Yang Xiuqin also smiled, stretched out her hand to shake hands with Li Yunlong and said:

"Hello, Captain Li! On behalf of the folks in Zhaojiayu, I welcome the comrades of the Independence Group!"

Li Yunlong also smiled and expressed his gratitude. At this time, Liu Xiu, who was following Li Yunlong, also looked at his sister-in-law. To be honest, this Yang Xiuqin was different from the southern woman Xiaojiabiyu, and had the unique cheerfulness and generosity of northern women.

In particular, his big eyes looked like crescent moons when he smiled. As for his figure, Liu Xiu saw that Yang Xiuqin was half a head taller than him. His height was at least 1.7 meters tall, but fortunately Li Yunlong was not too short. They are 1.8 meters tall, so Yang Xiuqin and Li Yunlong are a good match in terms of height!

As for Yang Xiuqin's figure, Liu Xiu can't tell. After all, it's already November and the weather in the north is already very cold, so who can tell when wearing thick clothes! But looking at the bulging cotton-padded clothes, Liu Xiu felt that Yang Xiuqin should still have something!

Yang Xiuqin's cheerful and straightforward character was revealed. After Li Yunlong thanked him, Yang Xiuqin immediately asked:

"Captain Li, I heard before that our independent regiment only has one company of cavalry? Why is the entire regiment now composed of cavalry?"

Regarding Yang Xiuqin's question, Li Yunlong pretended to be indifferent and said:

"Hey! There's nothing we can do about it! The siege of the Japs is just a decoration for our independent regiment. It's easy to break through. But after the breakout, the stalking of the Japs cavalry is a headache, so there's nothing we can do. Let's take care of a cavalry regiment of the Little Devils. It would be a pity to throw away the horses left behind by the Little Devils' cavalry. Wouldn't this turn the independent regiment into a cavalry regiment!"       As expected, Li Yunlong did this As soon as the words came out, especially when paired with Li Yunlong's nonchalant look, it was as if annihilating a cavalry regiment of Japs was as simple as eating and drinking. This immediately made Yang Xiuqin's eyes well up. With adoring eyes, he immediately said:

"Captain Li, you are truly worthy of being able to defeat the Sakata Alliance head-on and kill the captain of the Sakata Alliance, that's awesome!"

The militia captain in Zhaojiayu on the side couldn't stand it anymore, and immediately said:

"Okay! Comrade Xiuqin, our Commander Li has been fighting with the independent regiment for so long. He must not have eaten yet and we don't want Commander Li to have a meal and rest!"

When Yang Xiuqin heard what the militia captain said, she blushed and said:

"Yes! Yes! Look at me, the food has been heated up in the village. I will take Captain Li to have dinner right now!"

Fortunately, it's getting dark now, so not many people care about Yang Xiuqin's blush!

Of course, Liu Xiu also took advantage of Li Yunlong and followed Yang Xiuqin to her home and ate the meals prepared by Yang Xiuqin herself!

It has to be said that the meals prepared by Yang Xiuqin are quite sumptuous, such as this big bowl of fried chicken and eggs, and even some liquor!

You must know that in this war era when supplies are scarce, having chicken to eat is already a very luxurious thing!

Of course, the people eating at this table are all the backbones of the independent regiment, such as Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang, as well as the commanders of the 1st, 23rd and 3rd Battalions, so Liu Xiu is naturally there as the commander of the 2nd Battalion!

Entering the room, Yang Xiuqin could see everyone's faces clearly with the help of the oil lamp in the room. When everyone was sitting at the dinner table, Li Yunlong naturally introduced Yang Xiuqin to the other three capable battalion commanders. However, when Liu Xiu was introduced, Yang Xiuqin saw Liu Xiu's childish face and said with some confusion:

"Battle Commander Liu looks young, right? To be a battalion commander at such a young age, he must be very good at fighting!"

Li Yunlong heard Yang Xiuqin's question and said immediately:

"Not only is he not old, Sister Xiuqin, you don't know that my second battalion commander is only eleven years old this year! He followed me to fight against the Bantian United when he was nine years old..."

Li Yunlong immediately told Yang Xiuqin about Liu Xiu's situation in general, and even told him about Liu Xiu going to the North Factory with him. When Yang Xiuqin heard Liu Xiu's experience, his eyes turned red from the table. In the bowl of fried chicken that was served, a large chicken drumstick was placed in Liu Xiu's bowl and he said to Liu Xiu:

"It's really not easy for Comrade Xiao Liu, come and eat! If Comrade Xiao Liu doesn't mind it, Sister Xiuqin will take care of you!"

In fact, Liu Xiu didn't pay too much attention to what Li Yunlong said about him. After all, to be honest, the relationship with his original mother was not that deep at that time. So when Li Yunlong was talking, Liu Xiu was thinking about what to do in the future. Expand his second camp!

Because according to the plot, the independent group will then reach the stage of dispersed development, so when Yang Xiuqin gave Liu Xiu a big chicken leg because he sympathized with Liu Xiu, Liu Xiu wanted to immediately blurt out his instinctive reaction:

"Thank you, Sister-in-law Xiuqin!"

As soon as Liu Xiu said this, he immediately realized that it was inappropriate, because he had just arrived in Zhaojiayu!

Yang Xiuqin and Li Yunlong just met for the first time! So in a few months, when Yang Xiuqin and Li Yunlong are already ambiguous with each other, it will be logical to call them sister-in-law Xiuqin!
