"Traveler, don't you feel aggrieved?" Gao Shenxing said bitterly, "It's okay to be scorned at the Hengyang military service before, but after coming to the front line, I still have to be scorned by others. I can't figure it out. What are we doing? What did you do wrong? Why should you be treated differently? Traveler, why?"

Liang Gang said, "I can't answer your question."

After a pause, he said again: "But there is a wise saying I want to give you."

Gao Shenxing frowned and said, "Does the traveler want to say that the duty of soldiers is to obey orders?"

"It's a principle for a soldier to obey orders. There's nothing to say." Liang Gang shook his head and said, "I want to give you a sentence that depends on mountains and mountains, and relies on everyone to run away. Only yourself is the most reliable." Yes! Our 94th Brigade alone is behind enemy lines, and no one can count on it, not even the headmaster."

"The only thing we can rely on is ourselves."

"Soldiers, we recruit ourselves, and we raise food ourselves."

"We will settle the expenses by ourselves, and we will seize the weapons and equipment from the devils ourselves."

"In short, as long as you can find a solution by yourself, don't pretend to others. Didn't the Eighth Route Army of the Communist Party survive in this way? If they can do it, we can do it too!"

"What? Solve it all by yourself?" Gao Shenxing lost his voice, "Isn't this too difficult?"

"It's very difficult to solve so many problems." Liang Gang nodded and said, "But as long as we work hard, we can always solve it step by step. At least the problem of soldiers has been solved, isn't it?"

"That's true." Gao Shenxing nodded subconsciously.

The shortage of troops has indeed been resolved.

The 94th Brigade is now fully staffed.

The brigade now has more than 4000 officers and soldiers.

Just feeding is a big problem.

……

Jiugongshan District, New 1 Regiment Headquarters.

Feng Xianghe handed a bottle of Xifeng wine to Ding Wei, and said with a smile, "Here you are, head."

"Xifeng wine? This is a good thing." Ding Wei said happily, "Where did you get it?"

Feng Xianghe chuckled, and said again: "Our Sirius Squadron cooperated with the 3rd Battalion to set up a stronghold. I found a bottle of Xifeng wine while cleaning the battlefield, so I brought it back for you."

"Good boy, you have a conscience." Ding Wei said happily.

After speaking, he opened the wine, asked the guards to bring two earthenware bowls, and took out half a dustpan from the cabinet to eat the leftover salted peanuts, peeled the peanuts and drank leisurely.

In the Iron Triangle in Northwest Shanxi, Li Yunlong is a penny-pinching iron rooster.

Kong Jie is a diligent old scalper, and the hard work is basically his responsibility.

Ding Wei has the best view of the big picture, and enjoys life the most, even a little bourgeoisie, at least his clothes are always neat and clean, unlike Li Yunlong and Kong Jie who are always dirty.

But that was before, after Li Yunlong married his wife, his whole body was completely new.

While Ding Wei was drinking, Li Xiaoxian, the chief of staff, walked in excitedly: "Commander, the last section of the canal has been opened, and the water from the Yellow River has entered Jiugong Mountain!"

"That's great."

Ding Wei said happily: "Today our new 1st group is really a double blessing."

"Huh? Double happiness coming to the door?" Li Xiaoxian said, "Leader, what is another happiness?"

Ding Wei said proudly: "Chief of Staff, you are on the construction site, so you don't know yet. The recruitment work of our New 1st Regiment this spring has ended. Guess how many people are there in our New 1st Regiment?"

Li Xiao first thought for a while and said, "There must be 1500 people, right?"

"1500 people?" Ding Wei snorted, "Tell you, there are 1800 people!"

"My God!" Li Xiaoxian exclaimed in surprise, "Our new 1st regiment has 2000 troops again?"

Chapter 311 Spring Plowing and Peace Talks

On February [-], the dragon looked up.

With a sound of spring thunder, everything revived.

The annual spring plowing officially begins.

The plan for a year lies in spring. The Independent Regiment, New 1 Regiment, and New 2 Regiment all attach great importance to this year's spring plowing, and even suspend the training of the troops, so that the soldiers whose homes are nearby can go home and sow seeds.

At this time, the canals in Jiugong Mountain and Crouching Tiger Mountain have all been completed.

The icy Yellow River flowed continuously into the two counties through the diversion canal. The originally arid and barren dry land in Jiugong Mountain and Crouching Tiger Mountain became fertile irrigated land in a blink of an eye.

According to the plan, grain crops such as wheat, corn, sweet potatoes, and potatoes are mainly planted in Jiugong Mountain and Crouching Tiger Mountain, while cash crops such as tobacco leaves, cotton, and peanuts are mainly grown in Fuliang Mountain.

Since yesterday, the training of the independent regiment has been completely stopped.

Including the head of the regiment, Li Yunlong, all the soldiers helped the fathers and villagers to plow the spring in batches.

Early this morning, Li Yunlong brought some members of the regiment headquarters to Uncle Li's house.

Uncle Li's family used to have [-] mu of land, but all of it was mountainous, dry and barren. In good years, each mu of land could harvest [-] to [-] catties of coarse grains, barely making ends meet.

But if the year is not good, the famine can be brought down directly.

At this time, the local people generally have only two choices, one is to go to the west entrance and leave their hometown to Baotou and Suiyuan to seek a living, or they can stay in their hometown and endure hardships, and they will starve to death.

However, after the Independence Group came to Fuliang Mountain last year, they suppressed the local tyrants and evil gentry in the surrounding towns with an iron fist. Uncle Li's family was also allocated two acres of fertilized irrigated land, so there is a high probability that there will be no famine this year.

Before winter, that is, shortly after the watering land was allotted, Uncle Li planted winter wheat immediately. The wheat seedlings are already half a foot high, and they look green and pleasing to the eye.

Uncle Li would go to the fields to smoke a pot of cigarettes almost every morning.

"Uncle Li." Ge Erdan shouted before entering the door.

"Hey hey hey, here we come, here we come." Uncle Li greeted him out the door.

As soon as he left the main gate, he saw Li Yunlong leading a dozen soldiers into the courtyard.

Ge Erdan said: "Uncle Li, the team leader brought us here to dig the land for your house, let's go now."

"Not in a hurry." Uncle Li waved his hand and said with a smile, "Eat breakfast first, Captain Li and comrades come and sit down, and then go to the ground after breakfast."

While talking, Aunt Li came out with a dustpan pancake.

The pancakes are probably freshly baked, still steaming, with the fragrance of flour pancakes.

In addition to the pancakes, there is also a large pot of miso in the dustpan, and a large handful of washed shallots.

Ge Erdan immediately swallowed a big mouthful of saliva, dipped the shallots in the sauce and wrapped them in pancakes, it was delicious in the world, he could eat ten pancakes in one sitting.

It's a pity that I haven't opened it to eat since I grew up.

The Wolf Warriors Squadron once went to southern Hebei to perform a mission. It was said that they could eat donkey meat with fire, but Ge Erdan was too greedy.

However, as soon as this thought came up, he was slapped on the back of the head.

Li Yunlong slapped Ge Erdan lightly, then said with a smile, "Uncle Li, we've already eaten."

"How can I do that?" Uncle Li became anxious, and said with a stern face, "I have to have breakfast before going, otherwise I would rather not have your help, and I can plant the land by myself."

Wang Ye also said, "Master, we really have already had breakfast."

"I have to eat some more after eating." Uncle Li said, "When you are your age, you can eat the next meal immediately after one meal, eat quickly, and eat more!"

When young people are not full.

Li Yunlong stopped talking nonsense, picked up the hoe and left.

Uncle Li's house is in Qianshan, they all know it.

Wang Ye, Ge Erdan and more than a dozen soldiers also stepped forward to pick up various tools.

Uncle Li and Aunt Li quickly dipped shallots in miso sauce, wrapped them in pancakes, wrapped all the dozens of pancakes in the dustpan, chased them out and stuffed them into the hands of the soldiers.

Ge Erdan and the soldiers did not dare to reach out to take it.

Uncle Li got angry and said urgently: "If you don't eat, I will be angry."

Wang Ye smiled and said to Li Yunlong: "Regimental Commander, the military and civilian Yushui family is a family. This is Uncle Li's love for us. If you refuse to accept it, it will be a little unreasonable."

"Yes, yes, family." Uncle Li said repeatedly.

"It's still Staff Officer Wang who can talk, eat quickly, and eat while it's hot."

Only then did Li Yunlong order the soldiers to take over the pancakes that were still warm.

Ge Erdan ate a piece of pancake in two bites, and then looked at Wang Ye eagerly, because he knew that the food in the Wolf Warrior Squadron was good, and the only one who didn't have a gap here was Wang Ye.

Wang Ye had no choice but to pass the pancake to Ge Erdan.

After a while, everyone came to Qianshan, facing Zhaojiayu.

If the devils attack Zhaojiayu, Qianshan is a commanding height that must be captured.

Otherwise, the independent regiment only needs to set up a few light machine guns on the front mountain to block the only passage into the village, and the devils can only escape into the barren hills behind the village to become bandits.

The Eighth Route Army can go through tunnels.

There is a tunnel from the regiment headquarters to the front mountain.

The exit is on the land of Uncle Li's house.

Today's work is mainly to dig the ground. At this time, the ground has thawed and has just been soaked by the melted snow, so it is not difficult to turn it. A dozen people finished it in half a day.

Sowing began in the afternoon. Uncle Li responded to the call of the democratic government and planted cash crops such as tobacco leaves, cotton, peanuts, and soybeans on these ten acres of land. Anyway, the two acres of irrigated land at the entrance of the village have already planted wheat. After half a month, plant some sweet potatoes and potatoes on the corner of the field, and at least a few hundred catties of coarse grains can be harvested.

……

In Taiyuan, the 1st Army Command.

Jiro Sakuma, head of the intelligence section, said: "Your Excellency, Commander, according to intelligence, the canals built by the 386th Brigade of the Eighth Route Army in Jiugong Mountain and Crouching Tiger Mountain have been opened."

"Nani?" Yoshio Iwamatsu said, "Is the canal open?"

Hua Gu was also shocked and said: "The speed is so fast?"

Jiro Sakuma paused and said, "It is said that the Eighth Route Army has mobilized [-] civilians."

"Biga." Hua Guzheng turned his head and said to Iwamatsu Yoshio, "There are too many people in China, no matter what they do, they can form a huge number advantage, and the number can be transformed into a speed advantage."

After a pause, Hua Guzheng said again: "Your Excellency, Commander, do you want to clear the village in advance?"

It is certain that large-scale rural clearing will be carried out in Northwest Shanxi, but when will it start is a question.

"No, the 2nd Guards Division is not yet fully prepared, and the 4th Mixed Brigade of the Imperial Association Army is also being reorganized. It is too hasty to launch the Qingxiang in advance at this time." Yoshio Yanmatsu shook his head and said, "What's more, we Negotiations with Yan Xishan have reached a critical juncture, and we can't make extra trouble."

"But..." Hua Guzheng said with a frown.

"Intelligence shows that the Chinese Central Army in Fu'an County, the 1st Brigade of the Jinsui Army in Heyuan County, and the 386th Brigade of the Eighth Route Army in Ping'an, Nao County, and Anhua are all digging tunnels."

"Once the tunnels dug by the Central Army of China, the Jinsui Army and the Eighth Route Army become popular,"

"If the imperial army wants to launch a large-scale clearing of the countryside in Northwest Shanxi, the difficulty will increase exponentially."

"Not necessarily." Yoshio Yanmatsu waved his hand, and said, "The Eighth Route Army in the bandit area in central Jizhong dug even longer tunnels, but wasn't it also wiped out by the imperial army in the end?"

Speaking of this meal, Yoshio Iwamatsu went on to say: "What's more, the imperial army is also short of food. The base camp has ordered that all the military food of the Chinese dispatched army will be raised by ourselves in the future. Although the front army command said that it can support some of us , but we need to address at least most of them.”

"So let the people of China in Northwest Shanxi feel at ease about spring plowing."

"It won't be too late for the imperial army to go to clear the countryside after they plant the grain and the grain can be harvested."

"Okay." Hua Guzheng said, "If that's the case, then let the people of China plow in the spring first."

Yoshio Iwamatsu nodded and said: "Mr. Huagu, I will attend the meeting tomorrow in person. You inform the Jinsui Army and let Yan Xishan also attend, saying that the Imperial Army is tired of this kind of meaningless talk, and we must attend tomorrow's meeting." It involves substantive issues, otherwise there is no need to talk about it.”

"Hay!"

……

During this time, Zhao Gang was the busiest person in the entire Fuliang mountain area.

Because the anti-Japanese democratic government in the Fuliangshan base area has been established, Zhao Gang is not only the political commissar of the independent regiment, but also the secretary of the anti-Japanese democratic government. Therefore, he handles all affairs of the entire base area, ranging from the appointment of the township chief to the small The dispatch of cattle and seeds had to be decided by him, the county magistrate.

A month later, when the spring plowing was basically over, Zhao Gang was already thin and out of shape.

"Old Zhao, why did you become such a ghost?" When Zhao just returned to the regiment headquarters in Zhaojiayu after busy spring farming, Li Yunlong was suddenly taken aback.

Zhao Gang waved his hand and said, "Lao Li, is there anything to eat?"

Li Yunlong rushed to the kitchen and shouted: "Xiuqin, get Lao Zhao a bowl of noodles, hurry up."

After a while, Xiuqin brought a bowl of hot hand-rolled noodles, covered with a freshly fried egg, and toppings fried with pumpkin leaves and horse meat.

Zhao Gang devoured everything, leaving not a drop of soup.
