The Sword of Swords is a Guard for Kong Jie

Chapter 384 Huang Yu: Captain, I have taken this task (two chapters in one)

Two hours later, Kong Jie received a second telegram from Shen Quan.

The situation was even worse than his initial analysis with Huang Yu.

Li Wensheng glanced at ten lines, and after reading the telegram, he showed a stunned and shocked expression, and couldn't help but exclaimed: "Head, Yoshio Shinozuka is trying to trap us here to death!"

"It's so cunning to copy the no-man's land where the Kwantung Army used to deal with ordinary people to Northwest Shanxi, and build a ring-shaped no-man's land around our base area..."

"A blockade alone is enough for us, and with the addition of a no-man's land with a width of more than [-] kilometers surrounding us, it will be even more difficult for the base to contact the outside world!"

Huang Yu then read the telegram and pointed to the map to analyze: "Chief of Staff, this is not the most deadly threat!"

"The circular no-man's land around our base area is [-] kilometers wide, and there are [-] people living in this area! If Shinozuka Yoshio brings them all close to the base area, at most one month will be able to eat up all the military rations we have in stock. Light!"

"The people in the base area don't have much food in their hands...there is basically no way to get the extra food to feed [-] people!"

"Without food, not only the army will go hungry, but [-] ordinary people will also go hungry..."

"If you are not careful, these people will grab food in the base area for a bite to eat, turn grass into bandits, and mess up our base area!"

"I don't care about these ordinary people!"

"As Deputy Chief of Staff Shen said... Our Eighth Route Army is a team of ordinary people. We would rather go hungry than watch our villagers starve to death in front of us..."

"Not only violated the policy, but I also couldn't get over that hurdle psychologically!"

Kong Jie took it seriously and said, "Yoshio Shinozuka arranged a dead end for us!"

"But no amount of difficulty can defeat our Eighth Route Army..."

"At worst, let's fight with the Japanese and puppet troops, concentrate superior forces and firepower, destroy the enemy's blockade, and reconnect the base area with the outside world!"

Huang Yu shook his head, followed Kong Jie's analysis.

"Head, I think this is the worst possible outcome, and I will never use it unless it is absolutely necessary!"

"If there is only one blockade around the base area, we can establish contact with the outside world by breaking the blockade!"

"In addition to the blockade, there is a [-]-kilometer-wide circular no-man's land outside. Even if we break the blockade, ordinary people will not dare to cross this no-man's land at will, and the food and salt outside will still have no way to flow into the base area. !"

"The devil's blockade is not so easy to break. There are gun towers and bunkers everywhere... There are also many important forts built with steel and concrete. Heavy artillery may not be useful!"

"If we decide to storm the blockade, it will definitely be a tough battle for us, and if we are not careful, we will end up with a lose-lose ending!"

The small war room became quiet again, and everyone was shocked by Huang Yu's analysis. Their faces became more and more solemn, they frowned, stared at the map, and thought about ways to break the situation.

Kong Jie suddenly thought of something, picked up the second telegram sent by Shen Quan again, stared at Huang Yu after reading it, and said, "The crux of the problem lies in the [-] ordinary people who the little devils drove into our base area!"

"Limited rations because they can only last a month!"

"If the base area runs out of food in one month, the [-] people will immediately become a hidden danger of disrupting the base area!"

"Whether it's to relieve them, or for the peace of the base area, we must keep these [-] people safe!"

"It's best to completely control them, let them integrate into the base area, and use them for me!"

Huang Yu followed Kong Jie's words and suggested: "Leader, if you just control these hundreds of thousands of people and don't consider the food issue, let them work for me, I have a good idea!"

"Don't we want to expand the army? The recruits for the expanded army are all selected from among the [-] ordinary people. First, the most capable young and middle-aged people will be added to the army and become our members!"

"If we recruit [-] soldiers, it means that [-] households will support us. If we include the relatives of these recruits, at least tens of thousands of households will support us!"

"Gather the remaining young and strong together, build water conservancy projects in the base area, dig wells, reclaim wasteland, build houses for themselves, use work for relief, and exchange their own labor for family rations!"

"All the civilians who entered the base area will be dismantled!"

"A team of one hundred households will be arranged in one place, and the local government will designate areas to resettle them, and then the nearest guerrilla will help manage the young and strong in the village, organize them to work, and distribute food to them!"

"The guerrillas in each village in the base area are basically in the same squad. A dozen guerrillas manage more than a hundred young and strong, so it should be easy!"

"Even if there are Japanese and puppet army spies hidden among these ordinary people, the guerrillas in each village can keep a close eye on them, and they will be discovered if they show a little flaw!"

As soon as Kong Jie heard this, he shifted his gaze to Li Wensheng: "Xiao Huang is a good idea!"

"Many people are powerful... Let's disperse all the people who entered the base area... In case of accidents in the future, these people will also be scattered, and there is no way to disturb our base area!"

"The guerrillas in each village are local people. They want the local stability more than anyone else. They will definitely do their best to keep an eye on the people who enter the base area to prevent them from disturbing their peaceful life!"

Li Wensheng answered while recording: "I'll arrange this..."

"I will make a plan in a while, and let each main battalion deploy a company of troops to do this!"

"Guaranteed to miss a commoner who entered our base!"

After finishing speaking, the topic changed and continued: "But our food shortage is still not resolved!"

"Without food, no matter how well we arrange hundreds of thousands of people, they will still be hungry!"

"In case there are people who are hungry, grab food in the base area, and cause damage...we can't shoot them with guns!"

Kong Jie and Huang Yu's brows that had just been relaxed frowned again.

Especially Kong Jie, as an old revolutionary, he ate grass roots and gnawed bark when he was on the grass, and he really experienced the feeling of being hungry.

I know that once a person is hungry, he can do anything.

After thinking for a while, he made a decision: "This crisis is not only related to the life and death of the independent regiment, but also to the safety of the entire base area. All soldiers and civilians should work together to solve this difficulty!"

"Ask the people in the base area to borrow food in the name of the independent group..."

"One catty is not much, ten catties is not much..."

"A small amount makes a lot. As long as every commoner in the base area lends us ten catties of grain, then we can have more than [-] million catties of grain in our hands!"

"Easy to eat, can completely make [-] people live for four more months..."

While thinking about it, Li Wensheng replied: "It shouldn't be a big problem to let the folks dig up more wild vegetables in the local area and save ten catties of food per person..."

"But will the folks lend it to us?"

"Take a step back, even if we borrow food, it will still be two months until the autumn harvest. What else can we eat then?"

Kong Jie replied: "Everyone is profit-seeking, as long as it is beneficial, everyone will definitely be willing to lend us food!"

"This is how I think about it. Let us borrow ten catties of grain now, and when the autumn harvest comes, our independent group will pay back eleven catties... and so on..."

"Everyone keep the grain loan certificate. After the autumn harvest is over, it can be directly used to deduct public grain, and the standard of ten catties to deduct eleven catties will still be implemented!"

Huang Yu interrupted suddenly: "I will solve the food shortage in the base area for two months!"

"There are still four or five months in between. I don't believe we can't even get back several million catties of grain!"

"Even if I really can't get back the food, I can still get other food for everyone to preserve..."

"If the regiment headquarters believes in me, I will take on this important task now!"

Dingjiazhuang Assault Battalion Headquarters, when Huang Yu came back here, he told about the task of raising food.

Zhong Chengjun thought that Huang Yu would bring some good news, and was looking at him expectantly.

As a result, as soon as he finished listening, the expectant expression on his face was replaced by solemnity, and he replied helplessly: "Battalion Commander... let us go to raise food at this time, it would be better to kill us!"

"There is only so much food in the base area, and hundreds of thousands of mouths will be added at once. No matter how economical you are, it will not be enough!"

"There must be less than one grain raised internally!"

"Although there is food outside, it can't be brought back... It's also useless... I think you have to prepare in advance that you won't be able to complete the task!"

Huang Yu knew how difficult this task was, otherwise the head of the regiment and the chief of staff wouldn't have racked their brains and couldn't think of a way to break the situation.

If they don't open their mouths to take over this important task, they won't be able to sleep peacefully from tonight.

Bite the bullet and answer: "This task must be completed no matter how difficult it is..."

"Otherwise, the family business that the independent group has worked so hard to build in Northwest Shanxi will be ruined!"

"I think we can think about the problem in a different way!"

"Food includes not only the white flour, millet, corn, and sweet potatoes that we usually eat... but also all kinds of meat. Can we think about it from this aspect!"

"Eating meat can fill your stomach more than eating grain, and it is more nutritious!"

"Under normal circumstances, one catty of meat can at least be worth two to three catties of grain..."

Zhong Chengjun felt that he heard a big joke, and said with a face full of disbelief: "There is not enough food, how can there be meat!"

"Take pork as an example. There is no food, and if you just feed him pig grass, no matter how long you feed it, you won't grow any meat!"

"Chickens are almost the same... If they don't give them food, they don't even lay eggs, let alone grow meat!"

Huang Yu was not annoyed by Zhong Chengjun's rebuttal, but instead said with bright eyes: "Old Zhong, you are my lucky star..."

"Just now I didn't know what kind of livestock could provide us with meat without consuming food!"

"You reminded me just now that I had an idea!"

"Let's raise chickens!"

"You go to the head of the group immediately to borrow [-] yuan... All of it will be used to buy eggs, the more the better, and send them to Dingjiazhuang!"

"I want to set up a chicken farm in Dingjiazhuang!"

"Tell the regiment leader again, and let him order all the soldiers in the regiment to dig earthworms for me..."

"A company needs to dig at least [-] earthworms... If they must be alive, they must be sent to Dingjiazhuang as quickly as possible. I will be of great use..."

"Borrow me the generator of the regiment headquarters, and ask for more diesel, the faster the better..."

Watching Zhong Chengjun rushing out of the war room, Huang Yu immediately shifted his gaze to Wei Dayong: "Dayong... You immediately gather all the sharpshooters from the assault battalion to form a hunting team..."

"Lead the team yourself and immediately go hunting in the mountains..."

"As long as it can be eaten, no matter what kind of prey it is, I will shoot it down!"

"But you must not leave the defense area of ​​our assault battalion!"

"The long iron pillars are in charge of fishing. There are two rivers passing by in the defense area of ​​the assault battalion, and there are many fish in them!"

"I don't care if you use a net or a dam, try to catch all the big fish weighing more than half a catty in the river, and release the small fish weighing less than half a catty!"

"I want to experiment, with a steady stream of prey and fish instead of food, how much food can our assault battalion save in a day!"

"If there are a lot of them, I will immediately ask other battalions to form hunting teams and fishing teams!"

After receiving the task, Wei Dayong and Zhang Tiezhu left the war room at the same time, leaving only Wang Minghua watching Huang Yu and other tasks eagerly.

Seeing that Huang Yu kept staring at the map, but didn't speak, Wang Minghua became more and more anxious as he waited, and couldn't help reminding: "Battle Commander, you can't treat one more favorably than another... The soldiers from the third company of Tutu are all waiting for me at the station. If you know that I am empty-handed And then, Tu [-]st Company and Tu [-]nd Company have missions, so I can't be the company commander!"

"Good steel is used on the blade, what are you in a hurry for?" Huang Yu asked without raising his head, staring at the map on the table.

"Hunting and fishing can only be done in an emergency... With so many troops, no matter how many prey there are in the base area, they will be eaten up!"

"If you want to solve the problem of food shortage in the base area once and for all, the best way is to master a transportation channel from the outside world to the base area, so as to continuously supply food to the base area!"

The anxious look on Wang Minghua's face did not relax because of Huang Yu's words.

The latest situation of the enemy and ourselves is clearly marked on the map.

The gun towers, strongholds, and bunkers of the Japanese and puppet troops blocked the base area... densely surrounded the base area, and even the inaccessible mountain roads were not spared. It would not be an exaggeration to describe the entire blockade line as airtight.

The commando battalion wanted to establish a new transportation and supply line on this blockade, which was definitely more difficult than reaching the sky.

Frowning and analyzing: "The battalion commander... at least the food supply line must be able to walk by mules and horses... all the roads and roads add up to only six, all of which were cut off by heavy Japanese and puppet troops..."

"No matter where we fight, the devils will know immediately, and then send more troops to compete with us for the transportation line!"

"At most, you can control a transportation line for a few hours. If you want to completely control him like before, the possibility is almost zero!"

"If there is no possibility, let's create the possibility by ourselves!" Huang Yu insisted on his decision, watched for another two minutes, and suddenly picked up a pencil to draw a circle on three of the strongholds!

Wang Minghua was baffled. Just as he was about to ask questions, Huang Yu had already started to give an order: "Mobilize all the three sudden companies, stare at these three strongholds for me, and find out the situation of all the four puppet troops in the stronghold within ten days. The more detailed the better, especially It's the company commander of the puppet army, the deputy company commander, several platoon leaders..."

"Where is my hometown and how many people are there in the family, I have to find out!"

"In a while, you can go to the deputy battalion commander to approve three hundred yuan to buy information!"
