The Sword of Swords is a Guard for Kong Jie

Chapter 782
"Head, there is another problem that needs to be resolved immediately?" After discussing the anti-mopping up, Huang Yu's face became more serious than before, watching Kong Jie and Li Yunlong seriously say another thing. .

"The Kwantung Army is more ruthless in dealing with ordinary people than the North China Front Army."

"After the anti-sweeping campaign begins, the Kwantung Army will definitely be irritated by our army's tunnel warfare and guerrilla warfare, and will vent their anger by doing some excessive things."

"If there are ordinary people near them, they will definitely become a punching bag for little devils and encounter accidents."

"Little devils destroy tunnels, build roads, clear mines... a lot of manpower is required."

"If the common people in base areas fall into their hands and become hostages, the fighters will become helpless in guerrilla warfare."

"Especially when landmines are used, I'm afraid that the little devils will let the common people step on the mines in front of the team."

"The landmine array that was finally arranged, not only failed to blow up the little devils, but also blew up our own people. It is not worth the loss."

"I suggest that the troops immediately clear the base areas that may become battlefields."

"All the people and livestock were transferred."

"Bury well water and store grain well."

"Let the devils enter our base area and become blind, without any help, without a grain of food, or with a sip of clean water."

"Soldiers will not only have a lot less worries when fighting, but they can also make full use of our terrain advantages. They don't have to worry about protecting the common people, and they can fight as they want."

What Huang Yu said was reasonable and well-founded, and this was also a common method used by the Eighth Route Army to mop up base areas. Logically, Kong Jie would nod his head in agreement without hesitation.

But at this moment, not only Kong Jie, but even Li Yunlong hesitated.

If the troops of the Kwantung Army were to sweep the Yizhong base in three routes, several counties and hundreds of villages outside the mountains would become battle zones.

If all these places were emptied, there would be tens of 10 ordinary people alone.

Since the establishment of the Yizhong base area, there has never been such a large-scale clearing of the walls.

More importantly, not all the people in the base area were willing to listen to the command of the Eighth Route Army, leave the village temporarily, and move to the mountains to avoid the battle.

Time is limited, and this task cannot be completed no matter what.

Kong Jie didn't talk nonsense, and directly explained the difficulty of transferring so many ordinary people: "Xiao Huang..."

"Strengthening the wall and clearing the field seems very simple."

"The timing is much more difficult than you think, and a little carelessness will cause civil strife."

"If there are some caring people who deliberately provoke conflicts, the chances of problems will be even greater, and good things may turn into bad things."

"The transfer time is tight, and it is almost impossible to clear the war zone."

"Why don't we just move the people along the road and let them hide on the ground and wait until the battle is over."

Huang Yu shook his head: "No..."

"The Kwantung Army is a bunch of beasts who kill without blinking an eye."

"I heard that they killed entire villages in the northeast... Many places were turned into no-man's land by them."

"If there are ordinary people hiding in the war zone and they find out, the little devils who are angered by us will definitely vent their anger on them."

"At that time, no matter how much we regretted it, we would not be able to save hundreds of lives."

"After the Kwantung Army suffers losses along the road, it will definitely shift its attention to villages and towns far away from the road."

"If they find a few villages and towns where the common people have not moved, and take the common people there as hostages, and confront our army's tunnel warfare and mine warfare head-on, will we compromise with the devils, or will we fight the devils to the end regardless of the safety of the people?"

"In order to avoid these hidden dangers, it is necessary to fortify the walls and clear the fields, and clear the entire war zone."

"As for the difficulties in the process of transferring ordinary people, as long as we are willing to pay the price, there is no problem that cannot be solved."

"Didn't we just seize several million catties of grain in Baoding?"

"As long as we win the anti-mopping up campaign and defend the base in the middle of the wing, the troops will not be short of food."

"I suggest that all these grains be taken out as rations for ordinary people after they move into the mountains."

"As long as the people in the war zone, regardless of men, women, or children, move into the mountains within the specified time, everyone can receive fifteen catties of food at the specified place."

"In this way, more than [-]% of the people in the war zone will rush to move for these grains."

"The local troops only need to appease and transfer the remaining half of the people in the war zone."

"We have to make a promise to the common people."

"During the transfer period, all the houses destroyed by the war will be compensated according to the price of the base area, so as to eliminate their last worries."

With one mouth open, millions of catties of grain are gone...

It's like throwing a small stone into the sea without causing any waves.

Both Li Yunlong and Kong Jie were frightened by Huang Yu's big hand, they were stunned, and it took a long time to react.

But they didn't immediately nod in agreement.

If these grains are regarded as military rations, the Yizhong Eighth Route Army will not need to worry about rations for the next year.

Just sending them out for the sake of strengthening the wall and clearing the wilderness would make everyone feel heartbroken.

Huang Yu saw their hesitation and reluctance, and interjected again: "Leader...Leader Li..."

"I'm reluctant to let the child catch the wolf."

"Don't look at us sending out millions of catties of grain at once."

"But you get a huge battlefield where you can fight devils as you want without any worries."

"Based on this alone, the army can kill one or two thousand more little devils and save one or two thousand soldiers."

"If there is no food, we can still grab it, but if there are no people, it will be completely gone."

"Snapped……"

Kong Jie slammed his fist on the table, gritted his teeth, and said cruelly, "It's done..."

"Isn't it just a few million catties of grain..."

"As long as we win the anti-mopping up campaign and hit the Kwantung Army hard, we will fight Baoding again in the future and rob his mother..."

Huang Yu answered immediately: "What is Baoding?"

"The little devils have several times more food stored in Tianjin wharf than in Baoding.

"If it doesn't work, let's raid Tianjin Wharf."

"The tens of thousands of Kwantung Army going south is the only mobile force in Okamura Ningji's hands. If we kill them, our raid on Tianjin Wharf will be unimpeded and there will be no risk."

Li Yunlong made up his mind at the same time: "I agree to take out all the seized grain and transfer it to the common people to appease the people."

"If you don't have enough food, you can use money to make up for it."

"We still seized a large amount of money in Baoding, all of which were ill-gotten gains plundered by the little devils from the people, and they happened to be taken from the people and used by the people."

Kong Jie spoke again: "I'll handle this matter..."

"In a short while, I will issue an order to all villages and towns, so that the villagers will prepare during the day and set off at night."

"Everyone went day and night, fortified the walls and cleared the fields under the eyes of the Kwantung Army, and cleared the war zone."

"When the Kwantung Army enters the base area and faces a village that is inaccessible, it can scare them to death."
