...although I guess the Japanese army will not directly use planes to bomb and blow up the rations that originally belonged to their little devils.
But be cautious.
In the Dafengzhuang area, Kong Jie made various preparations.
One is to block the news, so that the Japanese army is completely confused about the specific day and time when the commendation meeting, celebration party and welcome party at Dafengzhuang will be held.
They also arranged for soldiers to prepare evacuation routes in advance and transfer the people of Dafengzhuang at any time.
On the other hand, the brigade commander and other leaders came to Dafengzhuang to speak, welcome the people, and stabilize people's hearts, which was done in the evening.
In addition, near Dafengzhuang, multiple stages for commendations and celebrations were built at one time.
This is to deal with the large number of disaster victims, and of course it is also for the safety of the brigade commander and other cadres.
In addition, Kong Jie also mobilized an air defense force and stationed it near Dafengzhuang.
If the little devil really dares to send out planes to bomb indiscriminately, the soldiers stationed in Dafengzhuang will not be helpless to fight back.
That's it, everything is arranged properly.
Time flies, it’s the afternoon of the 5th.
With the Independent Regiment as the host, and under the auspices of Kong Jie, the cadres held a grand commendation meeting in Dafengzhuang for intercepting the Japanese army rations, commending the people living in the base area for their outstanding performance, and welcoming the victims.
Welcome party.
The three conferences merged into one and officially kicked off.
This matter has been fermenting and brewing for nearly a week.
The news has already spread to all parties.
As early as a few days ago, a steady stream of victims rushed to Dafengzhuang.
The conference has not officially kicked off, but Captain Kong showed his generosity and magnanimity as a host.
With a wave of his hand, temporary open-air cooking centers were opened in Dafengzhuang and surrounding villages.
A large number of cooking classes, as well as some villagers who knew how to cook, came to help. In the spacious open-air avenue, a considerable number of simple stoves were built with large iron pots that could not be held with both hands.<
/p>
"Comrades, cheer up. Thousands of villagers are watching. We have to use some of our cooking skills to prepare this big pot of rice for the villagers."
The old squad leader of the cooking class was wiping sweat with one hand, unable to suppress the joy on his face, and shouted to the victims who were surrounding him expectantly.
Although this stove is simple, the food cooked in the big pot can be seen and touched by the victims.
Cart after cart of grain was pulled all the way to the rice field by the soldiers of the migrant workers' regiment, and even piled up into a hill on the field.
As soon as the bag is opened, there is a dazzling array of millet, white flour, rice, black beans, and various grains.
In addition, there are also vegetables delivered one after another.
In addition to local cabbage, there are even some foreign cabbage, foreign tomatoes, foreign peppers, etc. that you have never seen before.
Wait until the pork, chicken, and duck meat brought over on a trolley arrive.
Many victims who were hungry and full had their stomachs growling unsatisfactorily, and their stomachs were about to leak out.
It has been so long that everyone has almost forgotten the taste of meat.
Seeing this scene, the victims shouted excitedly one after another.
The soldiers of the independent regiment who maintained order at the scene behaved very kindly and explained with a smile to the victims:
"Fathers and fellow villagers, don't worry, this meal will be ready soon, please just be patient."
"Everyone try to maintain order. No matter young or old, everyone should take good care of themselves. There is no need to rush or rush. We will ensure that everyone can comfortably eat the welcome banquet prepared for everyone!" p>
"Now that I'm full, what should I do next?"
"Haha, aunt, don't worry, our group leader, Kong Jie, Captain Kong, have you heard of it?
As long as we villagers arrive at a team base, our team leader has said that we will never let the villagers go hungry. Not only will they not be hungry today, they will not be hungry tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, and in the future."
"From now on, we will not only take care of food, but also assign work to everyone. As long as you perform well, not to mention having a full stomach, then getting rich will not be a problem!"
The soldiers maintained order at the scene while explaining patiently.
Many of the victims were soldiers arranged by political commissar Li Wenjie, commonly known as - Tuo.
Of course, this is support in a positive sense.
After all, if someone among the common people responds, it will be more convenient to do things, and the villagers will be happier.
"Folks, our Eighth Route comrades are our people's own army. When we get here, it's the same as getting home."
"We all managed to escape, and the Eighth Route Army is willing to resettle us and give us food to eat."
"This is a very good unit. We can't break the rules, and we don't dare to loot randomly!"
There seemed to be some sensible fellow villagers among the victims who shouted loudly.
Then there was a response:
"What the brother just said is good, folks, when we get here, we must cooperate well with the work of our Eighth Route Army comrades. We must believe in our Eighth Route Army comrades."
"Whoever does bad things, takes the lead in breaking the rules and disobeys the arrangements, then he must be a traitor agent sent in by the little devils.
Everyone should keep their eyes open. If there is such a person in the army, we should quickly capture him and send him to the comrades of the Eighth Route Army!"
"Do you think this is true?"
Yes yes yes——
As three or five people in the crowd responded, a chain effect immediately aroused a response.
"..." The agents among them fell silent, and the words they intended to deliberately incite chaos were quickly swallowed.
Then, an amazing scene happened.
A large number of victims gathered together, all of them were in ragged clothes, unkempt hair, and their faces were disheveled due to long-term hunger.
But when faced with the scene of the comrades in the cooking class cooking in big pots, each one of them was quite obedient and waited according to the order of the scene.
Soon after, the aroma of the food in the big pot was overflowing.
The old squad leader of the cooking class who was in charge of the command shouted with a loudspeaker:
"Folks, we made a meal of braised rice for you all today. We said it was a vegetable, but our team leader also specially ordered to kill a few pigs and dozens of chickens and ducks to add some meat to everyone." "As for these grains, our independent group robbed the little devils of grain not long ago, so we have enough."
"Everyone just has to eat to their heart's content!"
When the conversation changed, the old squad leader explained: "It's just one thing. Everyone must cooperate with the work of our soldiers and maintain order on the scene. Our comrades will reasonably distribute the meals to every villager!"
Soon, after the food was completely cooked, and the aroma filled the rice field, the comrades in the cooking class began to prepare meals for the victims.
Under the guidance of the soldiers, the victims cooperated in a proper manner and formed a long queue, waiting for food.
The porcelain bowls made by the soldiers in the cooking class in the cave dwellings in the base area were used to serve meals to the villagers, which was enough to pull five carts.
When lining up, the soldiers were divided into orders, with the old and the weak at the front.
The young and strong ones lined up at the back. The soldiers said with a smile: "As the saying goes, you won't be afraid of being late for a good meal. We old men should be more patient and let the children, women, and the elderly eat first. Then
It’s our manly ambition, don’t you guys think so?”
Amidst the echoes, the younger men spontaneously went to the end of the line to line up.
