Chapter 400: Even Sparrows Can Drink 22
"This is real special attack!"
With the addition of cumin, chili powder and Sichuan pepper powder, the taste of the grilled fish is richer, the layers are more distinct, and it is fresh, spicy and delicious.
The fish body was made into grilled fish and the fish head was stewed into soup.
The soldiers of Weishan Lake Independent Battalion came up with their mouths full of instant noodles, then stared at the grilled fish curiously, somewhat surprised.
"You can eat fish like this? It smells good!"
"Sure enough, he's from headquarters. He even knows how to eat fish!"
The big carp was roasted until it was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. Monk Wei took the roasted fish off the fire, then gently tore off a piece of fish meat and put it in his mouth.
The spicy taste instantly exploded in my mouth, spreading to every corner of my mouth, sweeping away all the fatigue from days of running around and fighting.
As the teeth chew gently, the tightly roasted skin cracks, and the aroma of the fish drives away some of the spiciness. The umami taste gradually takes over, and a gentle and delicate feeling penetrates the whole body along the pores opened by the spiciness.
"Great! Come eat, everyone!"
Monk Wei divided the fish among the soldiers gathered around the campfire and each soldier took a large piece and ate it with relish.
Grilled fish comes first, followed by fish soup.
The soldiers of the 201st Airborne Regiment ate heartily and sweated profusely.
Peng Liang also came over with a bowl in his hand and snatched a small piece from Monk Wei.
"Old Wei, your cooking skills are quite good! We usually either stew it or stir-fry it, but I didn't expect it to taste so good when grilled like this?"
Peng Liang and his men had fought in Weishan Lake for many years, so they had grilled fish before. However, due to the harsh conditions and lack of seasoning, they could only apply a little salt at most, without any other seasoning, so the taste was naturally much worse.
This time, it really opened their eyes. This is completely "poverty alleviation through cooking skills"!
"How is it? My cooking skills are pretty good, right? This is our chief of staff's specialty. And the grilled lamb kebabs are so delicious!"
Monk Wei's mouth watered when he thought of Wang Meng's mutton skewers. He wished he could catch a sheep and execute him on the spot.
Peng Liang licked his fingers and looked at the seasonings somewhat embarrassedly.
"Old Wei, these seasonings..."
"Take it, take it. Except for the bullets for the Type 95 rifle, all the other supplies dropped from the air are left to you!"
"Hahaha, that's great! We don't have any wine here. If we did, I would toast you with three bowls!"
As expected, Peng Liang's words were still floating on the surface of Weishan Lake when the young soldier who was dismantling the wooden boxes immediately ran over from the darkness.
"Captain, look what I found!"
Wei Dayong took a closer look and found that it was actually a bottle of Fenjiu?
"Commander Li is so thoughtful. Hahahaha. Old Peng, come and have a drink!"
Peng Liang didn't expect that he had dug a hole for himself. Now that he had the wine and the bowls, he might as well do it!
"Hahaha, it's better to arrive at the right time than to arrive early. Since Commander Li has sent us some wine, we can't use his name to win the prize! I'll drink three bowls first!"
Peng Liang poured a large bowl of white wine.
"The first bowl is dedicated to our comrades who died in battle!"
Peng Liang tilted the bowl and spilled half of the liquid, then tilted his neck back and drank it all.
"The second bowl is dedicated to our comrades of the 201st Airborne Regiment. They are the heavenly soldiers and generals who came to our aid from thousands of miles away and helped us solve such a big problem!"
He tilted his neck back again and gulped.
"The third bowl is for ourselves! The next battle may be even harder, but as long as we have a breath of true energy, let's fight as hard as we can!"
Peng Liang drank three bowls, but he still acted as if nothing had happened, and even seemed a little hungry.
"Great wine! Shanxi Fenjiu is indeed worthy of its reputation!"
Monk Wei swallowed his saliva. He thought he could drink quite well, but compared to Peng Liang, he was still not as good.
It is said that sparrows in Shandong Province can drink two taels of milk. Those below half a catty go directly to the children's table and have no chance to be served at the table. It really lives up to its reputation!
But the momentum cannot be lost!
Monk Wei also picked up the wine bowl and filled Peng Liang's bowl with wine.
"Lao Peng, after we finish drinking today, we will go back in batches. Please help sweep the graves of our comrades who died in the battle when you are free. For these injured brothers, wait until they recover and then let them return to the team! Please!"
Peng Liang slammed his wine bowl hard against Monk Wei's bowl, then gulped down the wine.
"Don't worry, I'll send you a few guides tomorrow to help you cross the blockade. However, we are also familiar with the nearby Japanese blockades, so you'll have to rely on yourselves from now on!"
"It's okay, we paratroopers are born to be surrounded!"
"Hahaha!"
After drinking all night, before dawn the next morning, Wei Dayong led the first combat platoon and, under the cover of darkness, followed a guide to march westward.
Peng Liang looked at the boats that left and felt empty inside. Although he had just met Monk Wei, they had fought together after all, so they were brothers who had shared life and death together. After this separation, they might never meet again.
However! Peng Liang had no time to feel sad. After all, there was a more difficult task before him, which was to develop in all directions and try to pull out a group as soon as possible!
Peng Liang did what he said and ordered two companies to stay on Weishan Island and build fortifications, especially underground fortifications, to prevent artillery attacks from the Japanese.
Another company, led by Peng Liang, boarded small boats and headed in all directions, preparing to recruit soldiers in a big way.
Because of the big commotion they caused two days ago, they successfully repelled a battalion of Japanese invaders and a security regiment, and became famous.
Even the well-informed representatives of the Ludong Military Sub-district were conquered by the 201 Airborne Regiment's appearance and powerful firepower.
Therefore, as soon as the Weishan Lake Independent Battalion revealed its identity and its novel weapons and equipment, the men of Shandong Province became excited.
"My fellow men, we were helpless before. We didn't have any weapons and didn't dare to fight the Japanese head-on. But now it's different. We have guns, bullets, and cannons!"
Peng Liang then took out a small bag of compressed biscuits, egg powder and instant noodles, opened them and distributed them to the onlookers.
"Eat and keep yourself full!"
When the Weishanhu Independent Battalion was still the Railway Guerrillas, its name had already been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Now with so many weapons and equipment, what are these people who have been badly bullied by the Japanese devils and puppet troops waiting for!
In less than a day, more than a thousand people have registered. If nothing goes wrong, a group can be formed in three days!
According to Peng Liang's plan, and with the approval of the Independent Column Command, it was planned to form three infantry battalions, a direct artillery company, a reconnaissance company and other direct troops, with a total strength of 2,500 people.
Peng Liang couldn't feel happy when he saw that his camps on the east, west and south banks of Weishan Lake were crowded with new recruits.
