In addition to growing some crops, the wasteland reclaimed by the independent group was used.
In some wastelands closer to the cooking squad, seasonal vegetables are mainly grown to supply the troops' demand for vegetables.
Now that we are in mid-June, there are quite a few vegetables that are already edible.
Among them, the main ones that can be used as cooked vegetables and fruits are tomatoes and cucumbers.
Kong Jie arranged for the soldiers in the cooking class in advance to pick some ripe tomatoes and cucumbers and put them in a small bamboo basket.
Kong Jie carried it in his hand and distributed it to all the officers of the Jinsui Army.
"Everyone, please try something new. These are fruits and vegetables grown in my independent regiment base area. They are freshly picked and taste very fresh!"
It was a hot season. After Kong Jie distributed the washed tomatoes and cucumbers, he saw that the green and red ones were particularly attractive. The officers of the Jinsui Army were greedy and secretly swallowed their saliva. Each one of them became rude. Started eating.
Chu Yunfei was eating a green cucumber. When he took a bite, he felt full of refreshing summer feeling.
"For more than a year now, everyone has known that Brother Kong's independent group is very good at fighting the Japanese. Only today do I know that the development of Brother Kong's base is even more powerful!
Not to mention the distance, it would be nice for most of the troops behind enemy lines to have food to eat, but I am afraid that there are still these seasonal fruits here, which is really rare. "
What Chu Yunfei ate was cucumbers, but what Chu Yunfei saw was the productivity displayed by the independent regiment base behind the cucumbers.
He expressed his sincere emotion.
Kong Jie smiled nonchalantly and said: "Soldiers keep their heads in their belts. It's hard enough to fight the Japanese. As a regiment leader, I don't have much ability. I just want to feed the soldiers when I'm not fighting." Be full and eat well.”
"To put it this way, our Eighth Route Army is far inferior to the generosity of Brother Chu and your Jinsui Army!
If the army says it's a war, it's a war, so why worry about these activities in the fields?
Whether it's fruits and vegetables from all seasons or military clothing, there's always enough supply, and you never have to worry about logistical issues. "
"It's not like our Eighth Route Army. Let's just talk about our independent regiment. If the trouble is good, we can eat the fruits on hand. But if the trouble is bad, not to mention the fruits, we can't even eat the wild vegetables."
Chu Yunfei smiled and said: "Brother Kong is serious. The Eighth Route Army can fight more and more bravely behind enemy lines, and the base area is getting bigger and bigger. At least there is some guarantee in life."
Speaking of this, Chu Yunfei pointed to the faucet outside the regiment compound not far away, and said with emotion: "Brother Kong is such a generous handiwork. Even in rental places in Shanghai and Tianjin, not everyone can use this water pipe." Most of the water that can be used still needs water trucks, but Brother Kong’s base area behind enemy lines even has water pipes connected.”
These melons and fruits just now were washed with water flowing from these water pipes. At that time, all the officers of the Jinsui Army were surprised.
They had just arrived at the base of the Independence Regiment. A piece of melons and fruits and a piece of water pipe had already suppressed the officers of the Jinsui Army.
The construction and development within the independent regiment's base area far exceeded their imagination.
I thought it was an extremely difficult force behind enemy lines.
But looking at the rosy faces of the soldiers eating, it seems that it has nothing to do with hardship.
Captain Yang of the 57th Regiment and Wu Changsheng, the leader of the 71st Regiment, secretly sighed in their hearts:
He is worthy of being a big benefactor. From the internal development of the Independent Regiment base area, we can know that Commander Kong is definitely a man who is not short of money.
Second Battalion Commander Shen Quan, who was following Kong Jie to receive these officers, complained in his heart:
Where is this? If I don't need to keep it secret from you, I'm afraid you will leak the information and attract a bombing by Japanese planes.
I will take you, the frogs in the well, to see the development of the production factories of our independent group. Your eyes will definitely pop out in surprise.
…
This time Kong Jie received Chu Yunfei and other officers of the Shanxi-Sui Army, just like the principle mentioned by the brigade commander.
Don't show strength, but definitely don't show weakness.
The industrial development of production factories and other industries in the independent regiment base area is a secret and cannot be exposed easily.
For this reason, after the officers of the Jinsui Army arrived, Kong Jie even ordered that all production factories be temporarily suspended to prevent exposure to noise during production.
In addition, the various factories were well disguised. Anyway, from the outside, most of these factories were just brick houses, earth houses, or courtyards built one after another, and there were no clues.
Of course, the inner core cannot be known to these outsiders, but it should be revealed externally to show the skills of the independent group.
Therefore, Kong Jie deliberately used these fruits and water pipes only used by the independent regiment as the tip of the iceberg to win the imagination of these Shanxi-Sui Army officers.
Then, Kong Jie took Chu Yunfei and his party to visit the regimental cooking class.
Whether it was the renovated stove in the cooking class or the pig pens in the field outside the cooking class, all kinds of livestock were raised, which was an eye-opener for these Jinsui Army officers.
Before visiting the Independent Regiment, what the officers of the Jinsui Army knew about the Eighth Route Army was that they hid in the mountains and old forests behind enemy lines, or relied on the people to barely maintain the army's logistics supply, and then used guerrilla warfare to constantly play hide-and-seek with the little devils. .
What they saw completely subverted their understanding.
The Independent Regiment has built its base as a long-term residence. Judging from the development level of this base area, it is even as good as some towns.
What Chu Yunfei and others thought more deeply was that the base area where the Independent Regiment had developed was so arrogantly located behind enemy lines, and the Japanese army actually allowed it to happen.
Should we say that Kong Jie is audacious?
Or is it that the Japanese army is really powerless?
The questions are really thought-provoking.
But in the final analysis, what Kong Jie was taking the officers of the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army to visit at this moment was only the development of economic construction in the independent regiment base area.
But behind enemy lines, the most important thing is naturally military power.
If there is no strong military force to guard all this.
If the Japanese attack in a big way, no matter how well your independent regiment develops, it will all be burned down.
So, the commander of the Jinsui Army went straight to the point and asked:
"Captain Kong, you have taken us to see the agricultural construction and living construction in the base area of your independent regiment for a long time, and we have seen almost everything.
The main reason we came here this time is for exchanges and learning in the future joint anti-Japanese war. You have to come up with something military-related, so that we can learn from it, right? "
As soon as these words came out, all the officers of the Jin-Sui Army nodded in agreement.
This is also one of the most important purposes of their trip, which is to find out to what extent the independent regiment's military power has developed through visits and exchanges.
It would be great if we could see the Eighth Route Army's combat tactics and the weapons and equipment it has prepared.
Kong Jie said with a smile: "Forget it, then please move to the training ground."
"please--"
Shen Quan was responsible for leading the way and led the group straight to the independent regiment recruit training ground according to the previous plan with Kong Jie.
On the training ground, several companies of recruits were training in full swing.
On the huge training ground, the first thing that caught the attention of the officers of the Jinsui Army was the various training equipment.
"Captain Kong, may I ask what those wooden stakes are for?"
An officer from the Shanxi-Sui Army raised doubts.
Second Battalion Commander Shen Quan explained: "This is a four-hundred-meter obstacle course specially developed by our regiment commander. These are equipment used as obstacles. During the rapid advance of the soldiers, they simulated the necessary steps when facing enemy artillery fire. Jumping, dodging, crawling and other tactical actions."
Chu Yunfei smiled and said: "It's interesting. Many training equipment have shadows of our military's traditional training equipment, but this set is more systematic."
"Brother Kong is such a talented person, he can actually think of such a systematic training method!"
Kong Jie replied with a smile: "It's just a wild guess. I just want to train more solidly in peacetime, so that the soldiers will bleed less and sacrifice less when they go to the battlefield. Anyway, as a regiment leader, I dare to do anything, soldiers. If we dare to practice, that’s it.”
"Brother Kong, I am interested in this four-hundred-meter obstacle course. Can you let your soldiers demonstrate it?" Chu Yunfei asked again.
Kong Jie nodded towards Shen Quan.
Chen Quan immediately went to find the company commanders of several recruit companies who were training new recruits, and issued an order.
The recruit company has been training for a long time, and in terms of physical training, they are no strangers to the four-hundred-meter obstacle course.
After Kong Jie's order was conveyed, Chu Yunfei and the other officers could see that the company commander randomly selected 20 people from the team and led the team to a trot to the 400-meter obstacle course.
"Everyone, please!"
Kong Jie led Chu Yunfei and others to the edge of the 400-meter obstacle course.
"Let's start!" Kong Jie said to the company commander leading the team.
Twenty prepared warriors rushed out one after another and began the 400-meter obstacle course.
Starting from the three-step pile, cross the crater, jump over the low wall, cross the railing, and cross the ladder... until finally crossing the low pile net, drilling holes, and then crossing the five-step pile.
This completes the four-hundred-meter obstacle course.
At the end of the route, there are soldiers who are responsible for timing.
As the soldiers started running, Kong Jie explained from the side:
“The training of this system looks simple, but in fact it is quite difficult to operate.
Not only does it require increased physical fitness but also physical coordination, the entire training still has time requirements, and you can't just slowly walk over and crawl over to achieve the goal.
We soldiers have all said that we would rather run five kilometers than four hundred meters.
In this four-hundred-meter obstacle course, if you are not careful, you are most likely to get injured.
It is designed to cultivate the comprehensive abilities of our soldiers in running, jumping, climbing, supporting, balancing, drilling and climbing in military operations. "
Speaking of this, Kong Jie joked: "Brother Chu and other group leaders, if you are interested, why not give it a try?"...
