Rebirth from the Ashes: Rebuilding the Red Soviet Area

The old squad leader Chu Mingdu frowned.

I only focus on development and construction

But ignored

This isn't the rear.

Li Yan continued: "We can't put all our eggs in one basket."

“In addition, Huangjiagou has a limited geographical location.”

“The potential for further expansion will become smaller and smaller”

“So I suggest”

"Huangjiagou Military Industrial System Base"

“Only responsible for researching and developing technologies to improve product quality and quantity”

“And serve as a talent incubation base”

"Hand over the factory to Zhang Dong and his strategic support force."

"Or we can open a factory in the Daqingshan Northwest Mining Area."

“This spreads the risk.”

"There are blossoming everywhere and expanding in scale"

Old squad leader Chu Ming nodded

Take Shanxi for example, it has many mountains and little land.

Agriculture and animal husbandry will be restricted

Other things not to mention

If the livestock farm is built on the Northwest prairie

It can not only expand production, but also raise large animals such as horses and cattle.

越想

The old squad leader and Chu Mingyue felt that Li Yan's suggestion

Many benefits

......

After Li Yan finishes handling the Huangjiagou Military Industrial Base

Then he asked, "Chief of Staff Song Tao"

“How is the information system construction going?”

Lu Zhiguo signaled Song Tao to speak

Song Tao said: "We have relatively few intelligence talents."

"Now it's only in Datong, Shuozhou, Taiyuan, Xinzhou, Yangquan and Luliang."

"Using trading houses, pharmacies, restaurants, etc. as cover"

“A transportation station has been initially constructed.”

"In addition, in order to draw an accurate map of Shanxi

"We soldiers disguised ourselves as peddlers"

"Going to the villages and the countryside"

"But Shanxi is a place with complex topography."

“Plus there are many checkpoints.”

“Guards are everywhere”

“We’ve only mapped a quarter of it now.”

"As for the telegraph personnel"

“The requirements are quite high”

“We need educated people”

“We only recruited 15 people.”

......

Li Yan frowned

The information intelligence system is the eyes and ears of the entire army.

None of these

In the future, when we fight, we will be deaf and blind.

However, the requirements for intelligence personnel are indeed relatively high.

First of all, it requires unparalleled loyalty and dedication

Secondly, you need to have keen observation, flexible adaptability and efficient learning ability.

The most important self-discipline and professional skills

Let's not talk about the period of time it takes to train an intelligence talent.

It's hard to choose people like this.

Li Yan was not in a hurry to solve the problem

He turned to Dai Ping and asked, "How is your engineering battalion doing now?"

Dai Ping shook his head and said, "Not very good either."

"But according to your request, instructor"

"The engineering battalion not only conducts engineering reconnaissance, but also builds roads, erects bridges, and opens ferry crossings."

"We also need to build a command post, create minefields, set up obstacles, and so on."

“We are just recruiting some strong people now.”

"But we still lack the necessary equipment and technicians."

Then Li Yan asked the little beggar, Tong Liang and others about the situation of the direct communication company they were preparing.

Li Yan nodded

As expected, it's the same as the situation in the Information System Engineering Battalion.

Lack of professional talent

Li Yan thought about it

Asked: "Little Beggar Dai Ping Tong Liang"

"Can you three mobilize your fellow disciples?"

"Come join our Red Army"

"Or rather, not joining the Red Army"

“We pay for it.”

“It’s OK to ask them to teach us.”

The little beggar, Dai Ping, and Tong Liang were all stunned.

The little beggar said: "Instructor"

“That’s not right.”

"We, the brothers and sisters"

“Let’s not talk about whether you can come or not.”

“It’s coming.”

"He has a strong sense of the underworld, but he is unrestrained."

“It will affect the discipline of the troops”

"Besides, we belong to the lowest class of professions."

“I’m worried…”

Li Yan smiled and said, "You are worried that our comrades will look down on them."

"Have you forgotten when the three of you joined the Red Army?"

“Do comrades look down on you?”

"How about the lowest class?"

"There are 360 ​​professions, and every profession has its top talent"

"Beggars have been emperors, and Cao Cao is the ancestor of tomb robbers"

“Even thieves worship Oriental sculptures.”

"He is a man who is well-versed in classics and history, proficient in calculations, and has extensive knowledge and strong memory."

"As for the strong underworld atmosphere affecting the discipline of the troops..."

“Discipline is very important”

“But their skills are more important.”

“Take beggars for example.”

“You have been begging on the streets for a long time.”

"Not only develop the habit of keeping your eyes and ears open"

"Besides, there are so many people involved and so many things to do, it's hard to avoid being discovered."

"He's a master at gathering information."

"And Dai Ping"

"Why did I let you be the commander of the engineering battalion?"

"It's because you've been dealing with cemeteries for a long time."

"Not only good at mountain geography, history and culture, but also at deciphering mechanisms"

“They also know how to use tools and work together.”

"You tomb robbers are born to be engineers."

"Tong Liang is even more powerful"

"You guys are not only strong in mental quality"

"And also has the ability to pick locks, escape, hide, and sneak."

"The undisputed king of assassination and tracking"

......

"So no matter whether he is from the upper ninth class or the lower ninth class"

"As long as you fellow disciples are Chinese people"

"Having patriotic feelings"

“I am eager to seek talents”

Dai Ping said: "Instructor"

"Since you said so"

"I not only called my fellow apprentices here"

"Even if it's people from other sects, I'll try to contact them."

"Have them come quickly"

Little beggar Tong Liang also nodded heavily

Li Yan nodded

Then he said to the old squad leader Chu Ming: "Like our information system engineer"

“They need a lot of hardware.”

“Such as radios, excavation tools, etc.”

"Your military-industrial system must also find ways to help them achieve this."

Old squad leader Chu Ming nodded

Li Yan continued: "Right now we still can't move openly."

“So the three-tier system cannot be implemented.”

“We can only stay in the mountains”

“Operating in a guerrilla manner”

"Just now you said that you would hand over some factories to our Strategic Support Force."

"I just thought about it"

“Should we split it into two steps?”

“For example, mining, steel and other heavy industries.”

"Can I enter a township or county town under the pretext of opening a factory?"

"Then we will set up construction corps in these places."

"Some other light industries moved directly into the mountains."

"This way, the guerrillas can take advantage of the development of light industry and thrive everywhere."

Li Yan pondered for a moment and then said, "Zhang Dong, I have to say that your idea is indeed quite good."

But then he changed the subject

He continued with a serious expression, "But to open a factory, the capital is not a small amount."

"The Current Financial Situation of Our Red Army"

“It’s really hard to come up with such a large sum of money easily.”

"But..."

At this point, a glimmer of light flashed in Li Yan's eyes.

He raised his voice and said, "In that case, let's take a bigger step this time!"

"There are quite a few merchants in Shanxi."

"We can definitely try to find some enlightened gentlemen and businessmen to cooperate with us."

"In this way"

“It can reduce our own capital investment”

“The second is to draw on their strength.”

"This has enabled the scale of factory construction to be greatly expanded."

After listening to Li Yan's words

Zhang Dong nodded repeatedly to show his agreement

Then he responded: "Okay, then I will choose Lin County, Jia County and Fangshan County as the pilot areas."

“After this is up and running.”

"Then we will gradually expand into areas like Yulin, Ordos, Luliang, and Linfen."

Seeing Zhang Dong understand his intentions so thoroughly

and has quickly planned the next steps.

Li Yan showed a satisfied smile on his face and nodded slightly.

I thought to myself: Zhang Dong really knows what I'm thinking. After all, for the entire strategic layout, the vast northwest region is a crucial rear base.

And every inch of land in China is not redundant!
