"Commanders and regimental commanders, the Commander of the Fourth Battalion has an urgent message!" A communications staff officer suddenly rushed in and reported.
"Rongjun? What can happen to him?" Wang Ping frowned and took the telegram.
Soon, his face was covered with a thick smile: "Good news!"
"Chief, Commander: Rong Jun reported that when a transport team of the Jinsui Army passed the checkpoint of the third battalion and one company two hours ago, they unexpectedly accepted our request to spend money to buy peace!"
"Transported 100,000 kilograms of grain, 1,000 kilograms of grain and oil, and 10,000 kilograms of vegetables and pork to the front line. We were left with 20% of the grain and other supplies. It seems that Yan Laoxi of the Jinsui Army is planning to compromise with us!"
The deputy commander next to him was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly realized: "Yan Laoxi actually compromised, it's so unexpected, it's not like his character!"
"Wang Ping, please do the math for me. After the Jinsui Army compromises, how much benefit can you get from the Jinsui Army every day on average!"
Wang Ping replied happily: "Chief, there is no need to calculate, we have already calculated it!"
"When we go out to Linfen and the Jinsui Army garrison along the highway, the Jinsui Army garrison in other places in our base area need Linfen City to transport food supplies to them!"
"The total number of those troops is nearly 20,000, and they consume 25,000 kilograms of grain every day. According to the proportion, they must prepare at least 6,000 kilograms more grain, 200 kilograms of oil and salt, and 5,000 kilograms of vegetables and pork for us every day!"
"Hiss! So many!" the deputy commander took a breath and exclaimed.
Then he asked with a puzzled look on his face: "Is Yan Laoxi crazy? When did he become so generous? If our Eighth Route Army needs food, they will give it to us. This is not his character!"
Wang Ping explained: "Chief, it is because Yan Laoxi is good at calculating that he agreed to give us food!"
"If he doesn't give us food, he wants to ensure the logistical supplies for the nearly 20,000 troops here. At least two main divisions will be deployed to protect all the supply troops!"
"The more counties, villages and towns we occupy in the future, the more troops we will need!"
"Compared with the strength of several main divisions, those grains and supplies are obviously nothing!"
"It is better to occupy more towns than to waste troops on protecting the logistics and supply troops. By then, the tax revenue received every year will be several times the amount of food now!"
"If I were Yan Laoxi, I would choose to spend money to buy Ping An before I could completely solve this problem!"
"Not bad!" the deputy commander affirmed.
"The Jinsui Army's current strength is not as good as it used to be. The troops are not enough in the first place. They will definitely not waste several divisions to protect the logistics!"
"Six thousand kilograms of grain every day, and it's all white flour, plus five thousand kilograms of vegetables and pork. Comrade Wang Ping, your new group has made a fortune again!"
Wang Ping replied with an embarrassed look on his face: "Please rest assured, chief, we eat meat and will never let our brother troops drink soup!"
"The food of our new regiment is already very good. We only need three thousand kilograms of grain and three thousand kilograms of vegetables and pork every day to ensure that the main force can eat the wounded at noon every day!"
"So I decided to allocate half of the food received each time to the military region, and let the military region allocate it to each military division!"
The fat in his mouth will definitely not let him slip away, and there is also a deputy commander standing next to him who is eyeing him eagerly.
Commander Chen, who was deeply afraid that the deputy commander-in-chief might be thinking about these grains, immediately said, "Then I would like to thank Wang Ping on behalf of the other military divisions of the military region!"
"With the food and supplies you provide, although other military divisions are unable to raise the food standards of their troops to the standards of your new regiment, they can still meet the standard of one meal every two days!"
After Commander Chen finished speaking, Wang Ping's face immediately returned to seriousness, he stared at the Chief of Staff and ordered!
"Since the Jinsui Army chooses to spend money to buy peace, then we must ensure the safety of those transportation teams!"
"I'm not worried about the spies left behind after the Japanese retreat. The only thing I'm worried about is that the Jinsui Army's self-directed and self-operated supply troops will be attacked, and then they will attack our army!"
"Then what should we do?" Zhong Chenggong asked immediately.
Wang Ping replied without thinking: "The simplest and most direct way is to send troops to follow them, so that even if they have a conspiracy, they will not dare to use it!"
"That's too much trouble!" The smile on Zhong Chenggong's face disappeared and he frowned and asked!
"The Jinsui Army is now occupying more and more towns, and a large number of transport troops shuttle between towns every day. If we send troops to escort every transport team, at least five or six battalions will not be able to train properly.
!”
The deputy commander-in-chief and Commander Chen also frowned involuntarily.
Especially the political commissar on the side said directly with emotion: "It seems that the benefits of six thousand kilograms of grain, five thousand kilograms of vegetables and pork every day are not so easy to get?"
Wang Ping shook his head and replied: "No, you are all wrong!"
"Chief of Staff, let me ask you, in your eyes, training is only called training if you stay in the military camp!"
"Have you all forgotten the long-distance raids and emergency march training we have been conducting?"
"Our Eighth Route Army is poor and cannot compare with the Japanese and Jinsui Army. We just take cars when we go out!"
"We basically rely on two legs when marching. If you want to use two legs to run past the enemy's car on the battlefield, who can do it without long-term training!"
"All escort troops should treat every escort as a long-distance attack or a forced march. I don't care how to do it specifically. But I have a request. The escort distance is fifty kilometers, and the escort troops must give me twice as much as one hundred attacks, and
It has to be finished in the same time!”
"At that time, each battalion will be able to compete in military affairs, and fully armed rapid marches and long-distance attacks will also be part of the regiment headquarters' assessment!"
Zhong Chenggong's frown suddenly relaxed.
I was very happy to answer: "Captain, I will give the order now!"
In Gongtou Village, fifteen kilometers outside Fushan City, the people in the village are very busy during this period. They go out early in the morning to collect leaves and straw around the village, and then take them home to make fertilizer!
Last year they had tasted the use of base fertilizer to increase grain production.
Because of the use of base fertilizer, the average increase in grain production is about 10%. This is when there is not a lot of base fertilizer. If there is enough base fertilizer, the grain output will definitely be better.
Therefore, when the time for retting fertilizer came today, the whole village, young and old, went out to collect materials nearby.
But today, a group of people came earlier and blocked the village entrance, preventing people from going out.
Not long after, a news came in the village!
