"Cold gun and cold gun campaign?" Li Wenjie was a little confused.
Kong Jie explained: "In fact, it can be regarded as a more effective and safer guerrilla fighting method. Our Eighth Route Army troops are behind enemy lines. Even if we have opened up a certain base area, so far we have not been able to fight with the little Japanese." Fighting against each other, generally speaking, the enemy is strong and we are weak."
"Coupled with the overall disparity in equipment and ammunition, our Eighth Route Army troops must try to avoid head-on confrontations with the Japanese army and avoid operations that consume firepower."
"So we have various guerrilla tactics to use small-scale, low-intensity operations to consume the effective strength of the Japanese and puppet troops."
"During this period, the main force of the Japanese army was still in the Zhongtiao Mountains, so the Japs in various strongholds, counties, villages and towns turned offensive to defensive, and basically no longer took the initiative to approach our base areas and guerrilla areas. In response to this situation, we launched cold guns and cold guns. sports."
"This cold gun and cold artillery movement, as the name suggests, we use the guns and cannons at hand to attack the little Japanese for a while, and then quickly evacuate, killing the Japanese troops, but completely avoiding casualties on our own side and consuming less ammunition." Condition."
"But the main mission required by this movement is to consist of snipers with accurate marksmanship and gunners with skillful gunnery skills, either acting alone or in coordinated operations."
"The requirements are that although the scale is small and the intensity is low, the density must be high."
"It even got to the point that whenever any Japanese dared to leave their strongholds, counties, villages or towns, they would be attacked from a distance by our gunners and artillerymen. The little Japanese could not even find the enemy anywhere, which made the Japanese terrified and gave them nightmares when they slept. Go!"
"In this way, although local cold-fire operations can achieve limited success, when a large number of small victories are gathered together, it is a big victory."
Li Wenjie nodded and said thoughtfully: "This is indeed a good idea, but if we want to gather a small number to kill the Japanese and puppet troops, we need a large number of snipers and gunners."
"No wonder, Commander, you returned most of Commander Feng's snipers. It turned out that you had already made plans."
Kong Jie smiled and said: "I'm not afraid of having too many soldiers to train, but I'm afraid that there won't be any good seedlings."
"This cold-fire campaign is not only a tactical adjustment to deal with the Japanese and puppet troops, it is also the best training battlefield for the soldiers in our regiment."
"Long-range cold-fire attacks, even if they fail, will not cause any casualties to oneself. It is also a real battlefield environment. This is the best opportunity to promote the progress of soldiers."
"After this movement is launched, not only snipers, but also companies, platoons, and even squads must also participate in it, striving for everyone to progress to the level of a special shooter."
"When veterans are leading the team during operations, certain incentive policies can be set up. Veterans who can bring out new recruits and improve their marksmanship will be rewarded, highly praised, and even praised in pictures within the regiment."
"In addition, when conducting cold-gun and cold-gun operations, both snipers and gunners must set corresponding military merit awards. Take the sniper as an example, if he can kill more than 30 Japanese and puppet troops within a month, Yes, it will be recorded as a third-class personal merit."
"As for the specific details and rewards, Wenjie, you have to look at the plan yourself."
"yes!"
Li Wenjie responded and continued to quickly record the details Kong Jie said in his notebook.
Kong Jie continued: "In terms of military training, after talking about recruit training and cold-blooded campaigns, that's basically all."
"After I left, there were no large-scale military operations in the regiment, so apart from cold-blooded campaigns and military training, the main thing was the construction and economic development of the base area."
"The cooperation with the repair shops of various regiments and the cooperation with various production plants continue."
"In addition, to expand the scope of business cooperation, I told Dong San some time ago to let the repair shop transform some of the abandoned Japanese trucks that we captured back then to produce some small tractors. What are they used for? Farming land. .”
"This tractor is used for farming. The mechanical operation is much more economical than raising cattle. The main reason is that it consumes more fuel. But we always have channels for diesel and so on. One is from the national army, and we can buy oil from Yan'an."
"There are oil fields in Yan'an. We have been doing business with warlords from all sides before. The price of oil has been kept very low by the warlords. There is basically no oil and water. So why don't we digest it internally? Let's buy the oil from Yan'an at a higher price. , whether it is used for tractor farming or for the assembly line production operation of our factory, it can always earn more profits and at the same time bring a lot of income to Yan'an organizations. This is a win-win cooperation. matter."
Li Wenjie nodded convincingly. The leader had really thought deeply.
Kong Jie added: "In addition, how far can we continue to expand the guerrilla areas of our independent regiment? There are guerrilla areas everywhere."
Speaking of this, Kong Jie felt a little emotional: "Back then, the national army was based in the city and looked down on the backward and poor rural areas around it. Now that the little devils are here, they basically still have this bad habit.
From a local perspective, the main economy of a region is naturally concentrated in towns. "
"But in the final analysis, China is still a country based on farming and focusing on rural areas. On the whole, the overall resources and economy of rural areas are even better than those of urban areas."
“If we integrate human, material and other resources into a local area through guerrilla zones spread all over the country, then in this local area, we can even overtake the surrounding counties occupied by the Japanese army in terms of economic aggregate, and in turn use financial warfare to Suppress the Japanese army."
Li Wenjie also knew a little bit about financial warfare. He asked: "Captain, what should we do specifically?"
Kong Jie said: "Xu Qingnian and I have also discussed the specific methods."
"The border tickets currently issued in our base area are based on grain as the standard, which can fundamentally isolate the control and suppression of daily tickets and legal currency on our border tickets."
"The first thing we need to do is to prevent the circulation of daily tickets and legal currency within the base area, and prevent the Japanese or national troops from using currency to rob the base area of materials in disguise."
"Secondly, stabilize prices around the base. For example, for every 10,000 yuan of border tickets issued, at least 5,000 yuan of border tickets must be used to purchase military supplies such as grain, cotton, and cloth."
"The regiment must establish relevant price inspection and control departments."
"If prices in the base area show an upward trend, the control department can put materials into the market and collect currency to reduce prices. If prices show a downward trend, then we can issue additional currency and purchase materials to make prices rise again. This regulates market prices and achieves price stability, thereby enhancing the solid purchasing power and credibility of our border tickets."
"This is particularly important, because whether it is legal currency or daily tickets, there is an obvious inflation problem. Maybe today's money can buy a cow, but a year later it won't even be able to buy a bucket of rice. Such a currency with unstable purchasing power , how can it be recognized by the people?"
"So we must pay special attention to the stability of the purchasing power of border tickets and the stability of commodity prices."
"In addition, after stabilization, we will continue to increase trade with the Kuomintang-controlled areas and Japanese war zones through the business chain, so that more materials can flow into the base area to stimulate the overall development of our base area. In this way, the economy of our base area will It will become more stable and the lives of the villagers will get better and better."
Li Wenjie nodded frequently when he heard this, and quickly recorded in his notebook with gleaming eyes, "Wonderful! Captain, this method is so wonderful. In this way, we don't even need to use military means and can defeat our opponents without any bloodshed. "
"What problem is bigger than having a full stomach? If the Japanese and puppet troops don't even have enough to eat, how much fighting power will they have left?"
"Captain, please rest assured, I will start making preparations for this matter immediately."
"Whenever you encounter something you don't understand, ask Young Man Xu for advice. That guy is a top student in the Department of Finance. As a political commissar, you don't need to be proficient in finance, but you shouldn't be unfamiliar with what you need to know."
Kong Jie was like a patient brother, giving instructions with a clear voice.
"Hey!" Li Wenjie responded, "Captain, besides these, do you have anything else to explain?"
Kong Jie fell into thinking. There was always a big obstacle in his mind, which was the May Day raids 42 years later.
This large-scale raid was a serious blow to the Eighth Route Army.
Kong Jie has actually been preparing for this for more than a year.
As I was racking my brains, I was afraid that I might have missed something or that I was not sufficiently prepared.
After a while, Kong Jie said: "Wenjie, after arranging this series of things, whether it is farming in the base area, business dealings with various regiments, or the operation of all aspects of economic construction, these will require manpower, right?"
Li Wenjie replied: "Captain, that's for sure."
"But in the final analysis, we are an army. An anti-Japanese combat force. These things cannot excessively consume the strength of our regiment." Kong Jie said.
"Captain, what do you mean?"
Kong Jie said: "In fact, in and around our base area, in addition to our troops, there are other groups participating in the construction. Xie Baoqing and other construction teams, as well as many fellow villagers who help in our base area."
“These manpower are of great help to us.”
“What do you think if we could integrate them as a group and use their workforce more efficiently?”
Li Wenjie said: "Captain, are you talking about setting up a comprehensive construction group?"
Kong Jie smiled and said: "Or the migrant workers' corps."
"Migrant Workers' Corps!"
“Yes, the labor force composed of villagers comes to help us carry out basic construction, transportation, and a series of related work.
In short, we invite the villagers to work, we pay, and we will never let the villagers work in vain. In this way, we obtain manpower, and the villagers can also earn a penny of wages to subsidize their families. "...
