I am a wolf warrior

Zhao Gang also said: "That's right, Northwest Shanxi is full of wasteland, are you afraid that there will be no land to grow?"

"It's easy to say, you two are nerds, maybe you have never planted land before?" Li Yunlong said angrily, "I have been farming with my elders since I was six years old. If I hadn't participated in the jute riot at the age of 17, I would have been A good move, let me tell you, not all wasteland can be reclaimed."

Kong Jie also said: "There must be water, without water for irrigation, no crops can grow."

Li Yunlong said again: "The most lacking thing in Northwest Shanxi is water. How to grow crops?"

Zhao Gang's complexion immediately collapsed, he really hadn't thought about this question.

However, Wang Ye had already made up his mind, and said with a smile: "Commander, haven't you heard a word?"

"A word?" Li Yunlong said angrily, "What words? Say it quickly, don't just say half of your mother's words."

Wang Ye said with a smile: "This saying is that there are always more solutions than difficulties. If there is no food to eat, we will produce by ourselves; if there is no land to cultivate, we will reclaim wasteland; if there is no water source for irrigation, then we will open canals to divert water." , guarding the Yellow River, are you afraid that there will be no water to irrigate the land?"

Chapter 274

"Diverting water from the Yellow River?"

"What are you kidding."

"It's simply not possible."

Li Yunlong, Ding Wei and Kong Jie shouted at the same time.

Zhao Gang also frowned, feeling that this idea was a bit whimsical.

"Is it really impossible?" Wang Ye asked rhetorically, "Looking at the map, the Yellow River is behind the defense areas of the New 1st Regiment and the New 2nd Regiment, and the average straight-line distance is even less than [-] kilometers."

Kong Jie said: "But there are Crouching Tiger Mountain and Jiugong Mountain in the middle."

Wang Ye said: "What can we do across the mountain? Just cut through the mountain."

"What?" Kong Jie said dumbfounded, "Cutting through Crouching Tiger Mountain and Jiugong Mountain? How big is that project, how many people are needed, and how long will it take?"

Wang Ye said: "Actually, it's not as difficult as imagined."

Speaking of this, Wang Ye pointed to the map and said, "Look at the leaders and political commissars, the entire northwestern Shanxi and northern Shaanxi were originally connected together and belonged to the Loess Plateau."

"It was the Yellow River flowing down that divided the entire Loess Plateau into two."

"So, the soil quality in northwestern Shanxi is the same as that in northern Shaanxi. They are all typical loess land. The soil is soft and easy to dig. People in northwestern Shanxi also dig cave dwellings to live."

"Besides, it is not necessary to cut through the mountain."

"Because there must be east-west canyons in Crouching Tiger Mountain and Jiugong Mountain."

"Therefore, when there is a canyon that goes east to west, it should be detoured. Only when there is no canyon that goes east to west, it is necessary to dig mountains and tunnels. In this way, the amount of work will be much smaller."

"So, is it really difficult to dig and build tens of kilometers of canals?"

[Note: In the world of bright swords, Northwest Shanxi does not belong to the Jinsui base of the 120th Division]

Ding Wei said: "Even so, the amount of work is by no means something we can afford."

"Yes, this is already a huge irrigation project." Zhao Gang also said, "Xiao Wang, we can't support it with our existing 20 oceans and 1000 taels of gold alone."

After a pause, he said again: "If nothing else is said, the labor cost will not be affordable."

"Manpower?" Wang Ye said with a slight smile, "What if there is free labor?"

"What? Free labor?" Ding Wei, Kong Jie, and Zhao Gang were all stunned.

But Li Yunlong's heart moved, and he lost his voice: "I see, I just said, why do you have to bring more than 500 bastards from the Gao family's guards back to Zhaojiayu? Is this the intention?"

"Regimental Commander, this is really not true." Wang Ye shook his head and said again, "At that time, I was thinking of bringing more than 500 prisoners from the Gao Family Guard back to Zhaojiayu, but it actually has another purpose."

"However, the discussion just now gave me a new idea."

"Perhaps, we can make the fortifications in the Fuliang Mountains both military and civilian."

"Fortifications?" Li Yunlong was taken aback when he heard the words, and asked in a daze, "What defense project?"

"Yeah, Xiao Wang, why am I getting more and more confused the more I listen?" Kong Jie also said, "What are you talking about?"

Wang Yedao: "The three regiment leaders and the political commissar, I think about it this way. Although the defense areas of our three regiments are distributed in a zigzag shape, and they are at the corner of each other, the devils can support each other when they raid, but the devils may not If you don’t come here to sweep up, but suddenly come to clear the countryside to attack and disturb, then we will be a little bit hard to guard against.”

"So, I wanted to take advantage of the soft soil in Northwest Shanxi,"

"A large number of tunnels were dug in various villages in the base area and connected together."

"It can even connect all the villages in Fuliang Mountain to form an underground Great Wall!"

"In this way, no matter whether the devils come to sweep up, clear the countryside, or simply harass, the people in the base area can be transferred to the underground Great Wall in time and quickly, and our main force will not have to suffer huge sacrifices to cover the transfer of the people. You can use the underground Great Wall to fight devils."

"Wonderful!" Ding Wei said frantically, "It's a good idea!"

After a pause, he said again: "I was always worried about this problem before."

"The Battle of Shuiyao Mountain was like this. In order to cover the transfer of the people in the Taihang Military Region, almost the entire brigade of our 386th Brigade went all out. If the devils follow the gourd's plan and come here in Northwest Shanxi, then we will be in big trouble. , if the little devil comes here a few more times, no matter how much wealth we earn, it won’t be enough to consume like this.”

Wang Ye said: "But this is a huge project. We can't let the villagers do it for us, so we must go to the battlefield to capture more prisoners and let these captured soldiers do it for us!"

"This is a good idea!" Ding Wei said, slapping his thigh.

"From now on, we will do this all the time. No matter if we catch devils or puppet soldiers, let them dig tunnels."

Kong Jie said: "I'm afraid the devils can't do it. These little devils are very fierce. They will never be obedient and obedient. They may even threaten the safety of the guards."

"No." Wang Ye said with a smile, "According to my observation, the devils are only fierce when they are on the battlefield, but once they are captured, they will become more obedient than the puppet army."

This is not actually Wang Ye's observation, but a fact.

It's just that it's not this world, but the fact of another world.

In another world, hundreds of thousands of Japanese soldiers worked as coolies in Siberia until they died without rebelling. Now even if the world line is different, the devil's urination must be similar.

To put it bluntly, the obedience with the human race is actually quite good.

Zhao Gang said: "Xiao Wang, what do you mean by military and civilian use just now?"

Wang Yedao: "At first, I just wanted to capture the captives and come back to build the Great Underground Wall, but after the discussion just now, I found that a new water storage function can be added to the Great Underground Wall."

"It is to build water channels and storage tanks in the tunnel, and collect rainwater into the storage tanks when it rains."

"When there is a drought, release the water from the reservoir for irrigation. If necessary, you can also carry out water attacks on the devils who enter the tunnel!"

This is actually equivalent to building a small reservoir.

However, the reservoir was built underground.

Li Yunlong frowned and said, "Xiao Wang, didn't you just talk about diverting water from the Yellow River? Then why build a reservoir?"

Wang Ye said helplessly: "Commander, have you not noticed that there is a Tongpu road between the defense area of ​​our independent regiment and the defense area of ​​the new 1st and 2nd regiment? The canal can bypass the canyon and cross the mountain range, but it cannot cross it. Tongpu Road, so the water from the Yellow River cannot reach our Fuliang Mountains."

"Fuck!" Li Yunlong cursed angrily.

"Co-authoring this water conservancy project has nothing to do with our independent group?"

"That's not necessarily the case." Wang Ye shook his head and said, "Our three major defense zones can completely divide labor."

"Division of labor?" Zhao Gang's heart moved, "Xiao Wang, you mean to plant different crops according to different conditions, and then exchange them?"

"Yes, that's what it means."

Wang Ye said: "Once the devils launch a blockade, it will definitely be a complete blockade."

"Food, cloth, salt, sugar, oil, medicine and even tobacco leaves will be completely blocked."

"Of course, it is impossible for the devils to completely block the smuggling channels, but the cost of smuggling materials is high, and the price is high. I'm afraid we can't afford it."

"Therefore, it is necessary to carry out division of labor and cooperation among each other."

"Once the water conservancy project is completed, the Crouching Tiger and Jiugong Mountains will no longer be short of water, and they can mainly grow food."

"Because of the lack of water in the Fuliang Mountains, relatively drought-tolerant crops such as cotton and tobacco can be grown. We can even set up textile factories and tobacco factories to generate income."

"Anyway, there is no shortage of people in Northwest Shanxi."

"What is lacking is a livelihood for the common people to support their families."

"More than that." Zhao Gang also said excitedly, "We can also set up quilt factories, towel factories, and oil mills. We can let the villagers grow peanuts, and then buy peanuts to extract oil."

"By the way, you can also open a leather factory."

"Northwest Shanxi is next to Suiyuan, which is rich in leather."

Hearing this, the eyes of Li Yunlong and the others lit up.

"There is also a winery!" Ding Wei said excitedly, "Buy sweet potatoes to brew sweet potato burn."

It seems that Tuan Zhang has a special liking for wineries, and later he also set up a winery in Siye, selling wine while drinking.

Li Yunlong smiled and said: "Haha, now, our three regiments will have all the food, clothes, drinks, and cigarettes. We don't need anything. The devils still block it."

"Not only that." Zhao Gang also said excitedly.

"If the benefits are good, you can get enough funding."

"Our Northwest Shanxi base may still have enough energy to support the headquarters."

Good guy, originally they thought it would be very difficult to open up the situation in Northwest Shanxi.

But after Wang Ye said this, he suddenly felt that the future was bright, and there was a lot to do in Northwest Shanxi.

Zhao Gang said: "In this case, we must act as soon as possible, and strive to complete the water conservancy project before next year's spring plowing, and bring the water from the Yellow River into the Wohu Mountain and Jiugong Mountains, as well as the underground Great Wall in our Fuliang Mountain. It must be built as soon as possible to prevent the devils from suddenly launching a large-scale mopping operation."

Wang Ye said: "The devil's mopping up should not be so fast."

After a pause, he continued: "In the previous battle of Zhengtai Road and the subsequent battle of Shuiyao Mountain, the devil's 2nd Guards Division was almost disabled by us, and the combat supplies of the 1st Army stationed in Shanxi were also destroyed. It was exhausted, so within half a year, the Japanese army in Shanxi may not be able to launch a major offensive against us."

Zhao Gang said: "This is just right, we have half a year to build the fortifications."

Kong Jie said: "Just do it, Lao Li, you quickly allocate the thousand rounds of ammunition to me, and I will go back and destroy the Yuan family after receiving the bullets, and then arrest the Yuan family's nursing home to repair the water conservancy project." .”

Ding Wei said: "If that's the case, I'm going to catch some prisoners."

Then he said, "Old Li, quickly give me my share."

At this time, Wang Ye said to Li Yunlong: "Head, in order to speed up the progress of the project, I think it is necessary to provide a start-up fund to Head Ding and Head Kong."

"What?" Li Yunlong said, "What start-up capital?"

Wang Ye said: "The captives can't be caught if they want to, even if they are caught, the number is limited, but in the whole of Northwest Shanxi, there are many strong laborers who just stay at home and have nothing to do."

"Even if there are not 100 million, 50 is much more."

"These 50 strong laborers have nothing to do now."

"Mobilize them, and the progress of the project will be greatly accelerated."

"That's right." Zhao Gang patted his thigh and said, "It's winter right now."

Wang Ye said: "We only need a very low wage to recruit a lot of labor to dig the canal."

"In this way, there is a high probability that the water from the Yellow River will be channeled into the Wohu and Jiugong Mountains before the spring of next year, and the underground Great Wall in our Fuliang Mountain can also be basically built."

Zhao Gang said: "Old Li, I also agree with Xiao Wang's opinion."

Li Yunlong, however, was reluctant: "How much money will I get?"

Wang Ye said: "Give [-] to the two regiment leaders first, and make up if it is not enough."

Hearing this, the eyes of Ding Wei and Kong Jie lit up immediately, Xiao Wang was quite interesting.

"What? Give each of them 5 yuan?" Li Yunlong's face collapsed, "Don't even think about it."

"Old Li, I'm not talking about you, you have to see the big picture." Zhao Gang persuaded earnestly, "These two sums of money are not for the heads of Ding and Kong, nor for the new 1st regiment or the new 2nd regiment. It is used to build the Northwest Shanxi Base, and the entire Northwest Shanxi Base is built, and our independent group will also make money, right?"

After a pause, he continued: "At that time, we will set up quilt factories, tobacco factories, and wineries in the Northwest Shanxi base area. You will wear your own new military uniform, drink sweet potatoes brewed by your own winery, and smoke your own cigarettes." Shanxi Northwest cigarettes produced by the factory, those days are so leisurely, even gods can’t catch up with them.”

Wang Ye also smiled and said: "At that time, the boss, the division commander and the brigade commander also wore the military uniforms produced by our quilt factory, smoked the cigarettes produced by us, and drank the sweet potatoes produced by us. When the heads of other fraternal troops meet and greet each other, they all have to sigh with emotion, it is really thanks to Li Yunlong."

Li Yunlong's heart itch when he said this, such a picture is so beautiful, I dare not think about it.

"All right, all right, all right, my old Li is just a big bastard, I can't beat you two great talents."

Li Yunlong laughed haha, but when he turned to Kong Jie and Ding Wei, he immediately turned his face up again: "Old Ding, and Lao Kong, since we, political commissar Zhao and Xiao Wang, have talked so far, I don't care. I can only agree if I agree, but we, Lao Li, have to talk to you two."

Kong Jie said, "You're a fucking idiot, you must have held your fart."

Ding Wei said: "Old Kong, let him talk, I want to see what he can say."

Li Yunlong said with a stern face: "Nowadays, the situation in Northwest Shanxi is obvious. In terms of money, our old Li has more than 20 cash and more than 1000 taels of gold. He is like a rich landlord. You two are poor, like long-term workers. I'm taking care of your food and your wages now, so it's not too much to prioritize, right?"

"What do you want to say?" Ding Wei said, "You want to be brigade commander again?"
