Double-Cut During the War of Resistance: My Wife Came from 1937

Division Commander Liu and Deputy Division Commander Xu had just closed the door and entered the courtyard.

Division Commander He and Deputy Division Commander Nie then walked over.

Deputy Division Commander Nie asked with a smile, "Hey Lao Liu, why are you still closed? Did Comrade Xia bring you some good stuff again?"

Commander Liu nodded and said, "Yes, Comrade Xia did bring a treasure this time. You'll see it soon!"

"Oh?"

Upon hearing this, Division Commander He immediately asked curiously, "What kind of treasure is it, and why are you being so secretive about it?"

Deputy Division Commander Xu said, "You'll find out soon enough!"

And so, the four of them began to wait in the courtyard.

"Crunch~"

Soon, the door opened.

A young man wearing a gray modified Zhongshan suit and black leather shoes walked out of the house.

Division Commander He and Deputy Division Commander Nie immediately looked at each other.

The young man was found to have fair and delicate skin, like a young master, and had short hair that was seriously out of step with the times.

"Could this be...?"

The two began to have their own guesses.

Commander Liu and Deputy Commander Xu had seen a photo of Xia Weiwei and Ma Hongwei together on Xia Weiwei's phone before, which is why they were able to recognize each other at a glance.

However, neither Division Commander He nor Deputy Division Commander Nie had ever met Ma Hongwei, so they could only guess.

While Commander He and Deputy Commander Nie were looking at Ma Hongwei, he was also sizing them up.

The two men were dressed completely differently from Commander Liu and Deputy Commander Xu.

Both men wore black leather jackets over their Eighth Route Army uniforms, making them look more stylish.

Ma Hongwei looked at the bearded man and asked with a smile, "You must be Commander He! I've heard so much about you!"

"Young comrade!"

Commander He asked with a smile, "You wouldn't happen to be Comrade Ma Hongwei, would you?"

"It's me!"

Ma Hongwei nodded and said, "You can call me Xiao Ma or Hongwei!"

"Comrade Hongwei, you are truly a man of exceptional talent!"

Upon hearing this, Commander He immediately felt a sense of goodwill and extended his hand to shake hands, saying, "Welcome!"

"So this must be Deputy Division Commander Nie?"

After shaking hands with Division Commander He, Ma Hongwei extended his hand to Deputy Division Commander Nie.

"Comrade Hongwei, thank you for your help to our Eighth Route Army!"

Deputy Division Commander Nie quickly extended his hand and shook hands firmly with Ma Hongwei.

"You're too kind, sir!"

Ma Hongwei suddenly asked, "Can I take a picture with you?"

"group photo?"

"sure!"

"Take photos anywhere!"

None of the leaders refused.

Xia Weiwei suggested, "Chief, why don't you stand with Hongwei? I'll take a picture of you!"

"good!"

The group responded and stood in their respective positions beside Ma Hongwei.

Ma Hongwei initially wanted to use his own phone, but considering he was going abroad and might have his phone checked, he said to Xia Weiwei, "Weiwei, you should use your phone to take the pictures!"

"Why!"

Xia Weiwei nodded, took out her phone, and took several photos of everyone.

After taking photos, everyone went inside.

"Huh? Is this 'On War'?"

Upon entering the room, Commander He and Deputy Commander Nie immediately noticed the books on the table.

Ma Hongwei said, "My two commanders, I have bought several sets of these foreign military works. When you leave later, please take a few sets with you each."

"If it were anything else, I definitely wouldn't want it, but this military treatise, I won't be polite, haha!"

Deputy Division Commander Nie said with a smile.

Ma Hongwei said, "Besides these books, Weiwei and I also brought 136 tons of rice, as well as 12 tons of luncheon meat and canned braised pork!"

"The other ones are penicillin, artemisinin, cephalosporins, amoxicillin, and saline solution."

There's only the difference between once and countless times.

Ma Hongwei obtained these drugs through the channels of his distant second uncle.

Because Ma Hongwei hasn't completed the necessary paperwork for his own pharmacy, he can't source medicines himself.

"136 tons of rice?"

Deputy Division Commander Nie couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, "So many?"

136 tons of rice, that's 272,000 jin!

At 1.5 jin per person per day, that's enough to feed an army of 30000 for 6 days.

There are also canned meats.

If this had happened in the past, he wouldn't have believed it if someone had told him he could eat this well.

"Old Liu and I both tasted that rice; it was all pure white, high-quality rice!"

Deputy Division Commander Xu chuckled and said, "Whether it's braised pork or luncheon meat, the taste is quite good, and the soldiers have been very happy lately!"

"Polished rice?"

Commander He said, "Isn't this too extravagant? Don't you have anything less?"

"Sir, this is already extremely bad."

Ma Hongwei said, "Ordinary people don't bring their own food to their homes; only construction site canteens will buy it."

Anyway, the rice they usually eat costs about three yuan per kilogram, which isn't particularly good, but it's not bad either.

"The future is still the best!"

Commander Liu sighed, "It seems we must eliminate the Japanese and the Kuomintang as soon as possible and establish a new socialist China!"

The three men, including Deputy Division Commander Xu, all nodded.

If we want the people to live a good life, we need to quell the war first.

Only when the world is at peace can we focus on development with peace of mind.

Then, Commander Liu looked at Ma Hongwei and said, "Comrade Hongwei, we must give him a proper welcome this time!"

Ma Hongwei said, "Commander, you're too kind. Let's just do it as usual!"

"How can that be?"

Commander He shook his head: "You are a great hero to us, you must be treated well!"

"We division commanders receive a monthly allowance of four or five yuan, which we usually don't even have all of. We can afford to entertain you."

They certainly cannot be stingy with rewards for those who have made contributions.

Although they couldn't afford delicacies, they could still buy a few chickens from local people and hunt some wild game.

"Sir, you don't need to go to any trouble, I have something ready here!"

With a casual wave of his hand, Ma Hongwei produced three large pieces of meat: pork, beef, and mutton.

In addition, there are some cooked foods bought from supermarkets, such as pig's head meat, pig's ears, pig's trotters, Daokou roast chicken, garlic sausage, tiger skin chicken feet, duck clavicle, duck intestines, duck head, spicy crayfish, garlic crayfish, boiled fish, etc.

Because it's placed in a storage space where time seems to stand still, dishes like spicy crayfish, garlic crayfish, and boiled fish are still steaming hot.

Of course, Ma Hongwei didn't forget to buy fruit, including Kirin watermelons, cantaloupes, green grapes, red grapes, lychees, bananas, mangoes, and blueberries.
