Chapter 77 Yang Xiuqin’s lack of confidence

But although Liu Xiu had beaten many little devils and obtained a lot of ammunition, these bullets could not be used for his Mauser pistol!

Because the little devil’s bullets are either 6.5mm caliber 38 rifle bullets, 8mm Southern 14 pistol bullets, or 7.7mm heavy machine gun bullets. There is simply no Mauser pistol bullet that Liu Xiu needs. !

Of course, another reason is that in addition to Liu Xiu using pistols in close combat with the Japs, most people, including Li Yunlong, the leader of the independent regiment, like to use big blades to fight with the Japs with bayonets in close combat, so naturally Liu Xiu's The Mauser pistol consumes a lot of ammunition.

As a last resort, Liu Xiu had no choice but to ask for help from his own arsenal, and then naturally sent Liu Xiu thousands of rounds of Mauser pistol ammunition. After all, in addition to Liu Xiu having Mauser pistols, the Second Battalion also had many backbones of the Second Battalion. But they all have Mauser pistols. As for the captured kid’s Southern Fourteenth pistol, to be honest, no one really wants to use that thing!

Otherwise Liu Xiu would not have replaced his Southern Fourteenth pistol with a Mauser pistol!

Of course, Liu Xiu was too lazy to go to the arsenal in person to deal with the small problem of water entering the bullet seal. He just wrote a letter explaining the problem and saying that Tung paint could be used to solve the sealing problem. Don't worry about it anymore!

After all, Liu Xiu's main task now is to lead the development and growth of the Second Battalion of the Independent Regiment, and strive to pull out the strength of at least one regiment when Li Yunlong attacks Ping'an County!

Therefore, in order to expand his troops as soon as possible, Liu Xiu did not rest this winter. Even on New Year's Eve, Liu Xiu led his special forces to destroy the bunker of two Japs overnight!

After all, sitting vigil on New Year’s Eve is idle, and setting off firecrackers is not as interesting as the sound of gunshots!

But on New Year's Eve, when he led the special forces to fight against the Japs, Liu Xiu couldn't help but think of before time travel. As a child, Liu Xiu liked to lead a group of friends to play gunfights on New Year's Eve.

At that time, beep guns had not been banned, so every New Year, a new gun became the expectation of all the friends, and Liu Xiu was the same. A dozen friends in a village would compare whose beep guns they had. Whoever shoots the gun the furthest looks the coolest!

In this way, Liu Xiu finally achieved a small goal he had set ahead of schedule when the spring snow was about to melt, which was to raise a regiment of troops. Of course, there is not a regiment yet, but now Liu Xiu has I got a regiment's weapons and equipment from the little devil!

And as long as you have guns, it is naturally easy to raise a group of troops. After all, the Eighth Route Army's reputation in this area is so great that if you want to recruit troops, they will all come here!

However, just when Liu Xiu had a gun and was about to start recruiting troops, the leader of the independent regiment stationed in Zhaojiayu came with a message asking them to go to the meeting. Of course, not all of them would go and leave one or two backbones behind. That’s it.

As the deputy commander of the independent regiment and the temporary commander of the second battalion, Liu Xiu naturally had to go to the regiment for meetings!

As soon as Liu Xiu walked to Zhaojiayu, she saw several women on the road outside the village, basking in the warm sunshine of early spring, putting on their shoes and chatting.

Among them was a woman Liu Xiu knew. Yes, this woman was Yang Xiuqin.

A woman who was collecting shoes with Yang Xiuqin said:

"Hey! Have you ever seen Captain Li of the Independent Regiment? That man is quite fierce!"

After this woman finished speaking, a slightly younger woman said:

"I have seen Captain Li in the north room of Uncle Zhang's house. Two days ago, I went to Uncle Zhang's house to borrow a plow. Captain Li just happened to come out of the north room. He is quite strong, with a big head and big feet. If you give me It costs him two more feet of cloth to make a pair of shoes!”

At this time, another unmarried woman or girl heard this young woman describe Li Yunlong's appearance, and immediately asked with some excitement:

"Hey! Does Captain Li have an aunt?"

As soon as the girl asked the question, the older woman from before immediately said:

"No, I asked Old Wangtou from the cooking team, and Old Wangtou said that Captain Li is not married yet!"

As soon as she said this, some of the women who were collecting their shoes immediately started shouting:

"His second aunt, why do you care so much about Captain Li!"

"That's right! It's none of your business whether Captain Li gets married or not. Be careful of my second uncle hitting you!"

This second aunt also has a bold personality, and she immediately started to quarrel with the woman who made fun of her! At this time, Yang Xiuqin, who was the leader among the women and the director of the Women's Rescue Association, immediately tried to persuade them:

"Okay! Okay, let's stop making trouble. You are not in a formal state. You are bickering while talking. With the effort of bickering, you can make a pair of shoes! Half of the soldiers of this independent regiment are wearing straw sandals. Woolen cloth!"

Sure enough, Yang Xiuqin's status among the women of Zhaojiayu was still acceptable. As Yang Xiuqin spoke, she immediately stopped making trouble. At this time, the second aunt just said to Yang Xiuqin:

"Sister Xiuqin, what do you think of Captain Li?"

Regarding this second aunt's words, Yang Xiuqin also said bluntly:

"Aunt Li, if you have something to say, just say it, don't hide it!"

"Listen to what Auntie said, arranged marriages are not popular on the Eighth Road in this area now. If you want to find a match with your in-laws, you have to find a match yourself. The matchmakers have nothing to do! Look, Aunt Yi! You Xiuqin can't find a coward when looking for your in-laws. The peasants must find a man like Captain Li!"

However, when Aunt Li said these words, Yang Xiuqin said unconfidently:

"Aunt Li, judging from what you said, Captain Li can like a country girl like us!"

Regarding Yang Xiuqin's lack of confidence, Aunt Li encouraged her:

"What's up? One is the chief of the group, and the other is the president of the Women's Rescue Association. They are a perfect match. What a perfect match!"

In response to this, Yang Xiuqin said with embarrassment:

"Oh, stop talking, people will hear you soon, and it's not enough to make the whole village yell!"

Liu Xiu heard what Yang Xiuqin and the women said dozens of meters away. He couldn't double his physical fitness, which naturally included hearing. So when Yang Xiuqin finished speaking, Liu Xiu had already walked to Yang Xiuqin's side. Next to him, he took Yang Xiuqin’s words and said:

"Sister Xiuqin, what's the shame of saying this! As the saying goes, women chase men! We are all about free love, so this woman naturally has the right to pursue men! And I also think Xiu Qin Sister Qin and Brother Li are a good match!"

When Yang Xiuqin heard Liu Xiu's words, she looked up and naturally recognized Liu Xiu, who had called her sister-in-law at the dinner table the night before the New Year when she had just received the independence group!

So he immediately said happily:

"Oops! Deputy Liu is here. Have you eaten? I'll go cook for you right now!"

Liu Xiu was also very happy about Yang Xiuqin's enthusiasm, because it also proved that Yang Xiuqin was not worried about calling her sister-in-law last time.

But when he thought about the time Li Yunlong requested for the meeting, Liu Xiu immediately waved his hand and refused:

"Sister Xiuqin, the leader is still waiting for the meeting! Let's chat after the meeting!"

After that, he walked towards the leader of the independent group!
