Chapter 310

In early November, the Jinsui Branch released a combat meeting to "squeeze the enemy out". The main content of the meeting was selected and excerpted, and compiled into a booklet for circulating and reference between the bases.

The times have created people. After suffering a great loss during the May Day sweep, the Jin-Cha-Hebei base area abandoned the arrogance of fighting annihilation and hard war that had emerged during the Hundred Regiments War. During the battle, they became more aware of the advantages of fragmented guerrilla warfare. In particular, the main combat troops of the Eighth Route Army put down their main force and took the initiative to cooperate with the local guerrillas below to carry out large-scale mobile warfare. With the pair of iron legs trained during the Red Army's Long March, they consumed the enemy's strength in the movement.

The fifth public security campaign of the Japanese army strengthened the public security campaign for two consecutive months in October and November was not as fierce as the May Day sweep for the anti-Japanese bases in the north. The various counterattack methods of military and civilians in each base area made the Japanese army sweep seem a bit loud and thunderous. All anti-Japanese teams of all sizes were in a flexible and mobile state of being broken into pieces. They used the masses as cover to escape from the fingers of the Japanese and puppet troops. Although the Japanese and puppet troops swept heavily, they had a feeling of being powerful and having nowhere to be used and unable to find the target. After the huge and bloated Eighth Route Army gatherings in the past became as erratic as a combat team after simplifying the military. Information networks composed of radio stations from all over the country took turns to issue intelligence and orders, making it impossible for Japanese and puppet spies to track them.

The economic foundation of the central Hebei region is still a small peasant economy dominated by small workshops. Due to the blockade of the Japanese and puppet troops and the control of deliberate policies, the people rely on the largest grain-producing land in North China to barely starve to death. They want to continue to develop but are powerless, as if they were strangled by the Japanese army on their necks. Although they could not break their breath, they would not be much better. They were half-deadly hanging and honestly became one of the grain supply bases for the Japanese invaders to go south.

In the central Hebei region based on a simple agricultural economy, if you only want to fight a small amount of money and deal with the Japanese army, it would be enough to support the Shadow Company and various guerrillas. However, considering the long-term plan for a large-scale counterattack in the future, Wang Bao adopted Li Wei's suggestion and radiated from Shijing Village as the center point to the surrounding area. With economic construction as the center, it is the two basic points to lure the Japanese and puppet troops and forceful attack. Both hands are working together to develop local economic and military construction. This local local policy is also in line with the report "Economic Issues and Financial Issues in the Anti-Japanese Period" at the meeting of the Party Central Committee's Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningxia Border Region Senior Cadres, focusing on the policy of developing the economy and ensuring supply.

When he just received the reference of the meeting "Economic Issues and Financial Issues in the Anti-Japanese Period", Wang Bao couldn't help but look at Li Wei, the fourth platoon leader. He would start to go crazy as soon as he went on the battlefield. How could a guy who only knew how to kill people have such a mind to consider economic development? He didn't know that in modern society, even a three-year-old child knew to be active in the economy, let alone Li Wei who came out of this big dye vat in modern economic society.

Although the "mine economy" in Shijing Village is just barter transactions in small areas and does not have direct money and goods economy, it is also circulated in Shijing Village with other materials. Under the military protection of the Shadow Company, the exchange and distribution of products in various regions has alleviated the shortage of materials in the base areas in central Hebei to a certain extent. The only drawback is that the anti-coins issued by Yan'an are not very popular in the central Hebei region, and they are still exchanged with hard currency silver dollars, oceans and physical objects.

The development of the economy is not just about the military-industrial economy. After all, the masses and soldiers cannot live by eating landmines, and the diet of steamed buns and noodles is not balanced all day long. In addition to the military workshops as the main business, various types of side dishes, schools, textiles and other industries that are accompanied by are driven, not only diverting the burden of the soldiers' families for Shadow, but also organizing the elderly, weak, women and children who cannot directly participate in the war to give full play to the advantages of socialist planned economic division of labor and cooperation through labor-intensive industries.

The sales trend of simple military products such as mines and grenades has been rising continuously, and it is a good thing. The Shadow Company team lived a very comfortable life, which is much better than the hard days of eating stones and storing terraces on the Taihang Mountains and saving food. In the Shadow Company, even the simple food of a warrior brought from the Third Regiment, a bowl of corn flour and a few pieces of moldy tofu is almost the entire meaning of life for many new warriors.

The small-scale harassment combat study manual compiled and printed by the Hebei-Central Division Command made the red-card mines in Shijing Village fall into a hot market with supply and demand. The arsenal accountant made a crackling sound, counting how large-scale reproduction can be maintained when entering and leaving goods every day. The military business is extremely prosperous, providing a solid economic foundation for the Shadow Company, a small team of nearly 200 people. When fighting, it consumes money and food. Wang Bao and several other company platoon leaders rely on a lot of confidence in training and combat. They use live ammunition when training and shooting targets, and even use real gunpowder explosion points to imitate battlefield artillery during exercises.

Through the smuggling route, Li Wei and Fan Guowen asked someone to place a private purchase order and commissioned Flying Tigers acquaintance Bruno. Captain Harvey brought the message to Fan Guowen's family in the United States, bringing a batch of high-yield crops such as potatoes, tomatoes, sweet potatoes and sweet corn, as well as a batch of scarce chemical raw materials.

Because of the war, North China generally has many people and many lands after the harvest is in a state of yellowship. Five or six bonfires were lit in a large area of ​​farmland outside Shijing Village. Shadows were distributed in rows of one and second rows near the bonfires, and the intelligence network organized by the third row monitored the enemy's movements within a radius of twenty miles without stopping.

As the sky began to dark, the company commander Wang Bao repeatedly paced not far from the fire, holding the watch that had been pulled off from Li Wei's wrist in his hand, looking at the time from time to time, with an anxious and waiting expression on his face.

"Oh, boss, can't you take a break?! I'm dizzy!" Li Wei, who was sitting next to the fire, was grilling a chicken seriously, screaming at the top of his throat. It was very rare to have a chance to relax while performing a mission.

"That's right, the sweet potato is coming soon, let's eat a piece!" Fan Guowen was also on the side, staring at the fire without turning around, and occasionally pulling out a branch.

"Wei Zi, why didn't the plane come yet? It's dark, your watch will not break, right?" Wang Bao had no appetite at all. He was anxious. He agreed to have airdrop supplies from the Flying Tigers at 5 o'clock in the afternoon, but now it's 5:30, and there is no sign in the sky.

"My electronic watch is much better than your old horse watch. The time on my watch is Peking time. God knows what time standard Bruno uses!" Li Wei held the grilled fork and slowly turned the grilled chicken that was already fragrant. If it weren't for the improvement of the food out of his own pocket, where would the non-combat-time supply of meat besides the supply of meat?

"Listen! ~ There is movement!" Li Wei suddenly raised his head and looked at the sky to the west, as if he heard some sound. Fan Guowen and Wang Baoqi pricked up their ears, but they heard nothing except the whistling cold wind.

Five or six minutes later, a slight buzzing sound came from the sky.

"Hidden!" Wang Bao shouted. Although he was waiting for the Flying Tigers' plane, it was not guaranteed to be a Japanese plane.

The soldiers around the fire suddenly dispersed and entered the simple bunker dug in advance.

"Why just one plane?!" Wang Bao held up the telescope and muttered in a low voice. According to the original plan, there should be at least three planes. In order to hire the Flying Tigers to airdrop the Shadow Corps, whether it is the old leader of the Third Regiment or Fan Guowen's family in the United States, they pay freight and access to the route. This batch of materials is related to the production development of Hebei and Shandong based on next year.

After the huge plane in the sky flew over Wang Bao and others, it seemed as if it had discovered an extremely conspicuous bonfire group on the ground, and began to circle in the air, three circles on the left and three circles on the right, twisting its neck and twisting its butt. Such a strange flight action is inseparable from the name of the mission of this flight mission. The name of this airdrop mission is "Little Bee".

Two signal flares, one red and one green, shot directly into the sky, responding to the plane's contact actions.

In response to the signal flare, a string of white parachutes followed the plane and spread out in the air.

"Here you come! ~ Everyone, please help!" Li Wei jumped up and directed the manpower to pick up the airdrop materials falling from the sky.

Boom! ~

A bunch of bonfires were smashed by an airdrop packaging box. Firewood with flames flew everywhere. Parachutes quickly burned. The soldiers in the first and second rows rushed over to put out the fire.

"My beggar chicken! It's over!" Li Wei moaned. There were a few inconspicuous mud balls under the bonfire that were his private food.

"Weizi, you hide your private goods again! You have no choice but to eat it at night!" Wang Bao seemed a little annoyed and snatched the roast chicken half of Li Wei's hand. He simply tore up the chicken. Li Wei, the leader of the four rows beside him, actually hid the food secretly and did not report it. It was obviously unorganized and undisciplined, and the roast chicken was confiscated.

These days, it is very difficult for ordinary people to raise chickens, ducks, poultry and livestock. Most of them are reluctant to eat them. They exchange some daily necessities such as salt and tea to supplement their household expenses when they go to the market. No wonder Wang Bao was angry.

The plane turned around in the sky, threw down more than a dozen parachutes, and then turned around and flew back west.

"That's all?" Li Wei and Fan Guowen looked at each other, remembering that their order was several pages, saying that they were delivering goods with three planes at a time today, but now more than a dozen large boxes were thrown down with parachutes, and they probably didn't even have half of the aircraft full.

"It's gone!" Wang Bao was also a little embarrassed. For this batch of things, they paid a high shipping fee of ten big yellow croakers.

"What are you doing when you are stunned! Move things quickly and move them immediately!" Li Wei, who came to his senses first, shouted. The transport plane undoubtedly gave the enemy a huge target, and there will definitely be various forces to investigate, which will inevitably expose the Shadow Company, which is very unfavorable for the Shadow Company, which is a small and weak Shadow Company.
