While drinking wine and peeling peanuts, Kong Jie chatted a lot with Xu Guoan.
As the chief of staff of the detachment, Xu Guoan had just taken up the post and was quite unfamiliar with many tasks within the entire base area.
Kong Jie introduced as many things to him as possible so that Xu Guoan could start work quickly.
After Xu Guoan, the chief of staff, arrived, the detachment staff was formally established according to Kong Jie's plan.
In addition to Xu Guoan, the chief of staff, there are five other staff officers in the entire staff department.
As the saying goes, three cobblers are as good as Zhuge Liang.
Although there are only six people in the entire staff, each member is much better than the Cobbler, equivalent to Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong standing on Kong Jie's left and right hands respectively.
In Kong Jie's original words: "It's true that both the dragon and the phoenix can win."
As he continued to have an in-depth conversation with Kong Jie, Xu Guoan became more and more amazed as the conversation continued.
After not seeing each other for just a few years, his impression of Lao Kong's personality had changed a lot. He was more confident and outgoing than before, and his knowledge and conversation skills had also improved a lot.
We are continuing to chat.
The monk who was pouring wine for the two of them glanced through the window at the returning political commissar Li Wenjie outside the yard.
"Captain, the political commissar is back!"
The monk reminded quickly.
It was too late, but it was too late. Kong Jie, who was still chatting and laughing with Xu Guoan, quickly took action.
He was the first to drink the remaining wine in the wine bowl. Xu Guoan had also finished his wine, so he quickly stacked the two wine bowls together and placed them on the edge of the Kang.
Then he directly put the lid on the wine bottle and stuffed it under the kang skillfully. The kang is naturally cold in summer, so hiding something is not a problem.
Then he took the peanuts and peanut shells on the square table into his arms and pressed them all under the quilt.
The entire table immediately became bare.
Then Captain Kong stared at Xu Guoan seriously, raised his voice slightly and said:
"Old Xu, in order for you to quickly take over the tasks of our detachment, I have to introduce you to every aspect of this group!"
"You don't know, the base area is busy inside and outside. Wenjie is so busy in front and back, and I am equally busy. It's hard to find some time to take you around the base area."
Opposite, Xu Guoan: "..."
What's going on?
While Kong Jie was talking, Li Wenjie came in from outside with sweat stains. When he entered the room, he saw Xu Guoan. He was stunned for a moment, then smiled and extended his hand to Xu Guoan:
"Lao Xu, welcome!"
The two shook hands warmly.
Xu Guoan and Li Wenjie also knew each other. When Li Wenjie first came from Yan'an, he stayed at the brigade headquarters for a few days, and Xu Guoan also chatted with Li Wenjie.
Xu Guoan also lamented Li Wenjie's outstanding performance after entering the army.
This young graduate of the Anti-Japanese University and the younger brother of Li Wenying, the former political commissar of the Independent Regiment, after entering the Independent Regiment, worked step by step from the company instructor to the position of political commissar and assumed the numerous responsibilities of the Independent Regiment. thing.
Speaking of which, Kong Jie has been able to develop the independent regiment so well these days, winning battles one after another.
Thanks also to Li Wenjie, a virtuous wife.
Kong Jie once made it clear at a brigade meeting:
"If a regiment leader wants to win the war, half of the victory rate lies on the political commissar, various logistical preparations before the war, training of the soldiers in the regiment, psychological guidance, morale encouragement, and combat intelligence Collection and analysis; logistical supply and ammunition and equipment transportation during combat; post-war resource integration, defense deployment, etc.”
"As the leader of the regiment, we only have a good enough political commissar standing behind us who can handle all these trivial matters in an orderly manner. Only when we are fighting a war can we focus on it. How can we lose the war?"
Therefore, for Li Wenjie, the former acting political commissar of the Independent Regiment, cadres at all levels in the entire 386th Brigade also quite recognized him.
Li Wenjie and Xu Guoan shook hands.
Kong Jie said: "Monk, you don't have any eyesight. Bring a bench for our political commissar."
"Eh!"
"No, monk, I just passed by the regiment headquarters. I have something to discuss with the regiment leader. I have to rush to the migrant workers' corps residential area to deal with some problems soon!"
Li Wenjie said.
Having said this, Li Wenjie looked at Xu Guoan apologetically.
"Old Xu, it stands to reason that if you come here, don't say more. The leader and I should give you a welcome banquet, even if it is a simple one."
"It's just that the group has accepted a large number of refugees these days, and the scale of the migrant workers' group is also growing. There are too many problems to deal with. I really can't find the time for the time being. Please forgive me!"
Xu Guoan smiled and said: "Political Commissar, what you said is too polite. How can we, our own comrades, care about whether we have these things or not?"
Li Wenjie waved his hand quickly and said: "Old Xu, please don't bury me. I'm not a political commissar. You, like the leader, are both old-timers of the revolution. Just call me Wenjie."
"Okay, Wenjie!" Xu Guoan smiled without being shy.
On this hot day, Li Wenjie, who had come all the way, wiped the sweat from his forehead repeatedly while talking.
Xu Guoan said: "It seems that this big business also has the same difficulties as a big business. Wenjie, how come you are so busy?"
Li Wenjie said helplessly: "The main reason is that there are too many things that have accumulated during this period. The reception of refugees and the migrant workers' group have to do a good job in handover work in all aspects. In addition, the business chain within the group, and even the intelligence work in enemy-occupied areas, this point If you accumulate one drop at a time, you will be so busy that you will be exhausted.”
The conversation changed.
"However, if you come here, Lao Xu, the leader and I will be able to relax a lot."
Lao Kong, is it much easier?
Xu Guoan was a little confused. He remembered that when he entered the house, old Kong was drinking wine, peeling peanuts, and humming a little tune like a normal person!
Good guy, Xu Guoan understood instantly.
No wonder that after learning that Li Wenjie was back, Lao Kong made the series of quick and skillful movements he just did.
The feeling is that I am afraid that I will be caught by the political commissar if I am lazy.
After thinking about this clearly, Xu Guoan looked at Kong Jie with a half-smile, and said happily:
"Lao Kong, it turns out you are all so busy!"
Cough cough cough——
Kong Jie laughed twice and said seriously: "There is nothing we can do. There are many things in this group, so we have to be busy with these."
"I'm also rushing to write something at the regiment headquarters, or else I'm running outside. If you, Lao Xu, come over, I'm afraid I won't even be able to bump into the receptionist."
As he said that, Captain Kong, who had been prepared for it, pulled out a piece of paper from under the bed.
"Wenjie, these are some processes and materials for making chemical fertilizers using local methods that I have just sorted out. During this period, the number of members in our migrant workers' corps has increased, we have been accepting refugees, and a lot of wasteland has been reclaimed. When the time comes to plant crops, we will need There is not a small amount of chemical fertilizer, but the fertilized field powder shipped in from Guizi County may not be enough."
"In addition, we have to use part of the fertilized field powder we got from the little devil to make explosives!"
“So these methods of making soil-based fertilizers can definitely come in handy.”
Xu Guoan was stunned. Good guy, Lao Kong is really well prepared.
Li Wenjie and Xu Guoan took the paper handed over by Kong Jie and looked at the content on it together.
Directly above it reads:
"1. Materials and methods for making Tu'an fertilizer: 50 kilograms of fresh cow dung, 50 grams of soybean powder, and 5 kilograms of plaster of paris powder. After mixing evenly, seal it for three days, add water and it can be used."
"2. Materials and methods for making soil sulfur fertilizer: fifty kilograms of human urine, five kilograms of plaster of paris, and twenty-five kilograms of water. It can be used after ten days of sealing."
"3. Materials and methods for making soil nitrogen, ammonium and phosphorus compound fertilizer, animal bone powder..."
"Fourth, make organic fertilizer by local methods: mix straw, fallen leaves, human and animal manure, then cover with straw and other materials, turn the pile once every three or four weeks, and ferment for three months before use."
"Fifth, how to make potash fertilizer from plant ash..."
After browsing, Xu Guoan looked surprised.
Li Wenjie said in surprise: "Captain, are you sure this method will work?"
Kong Jie smiled and said: "Don't worry, it will definitely work. Moreover, I specially sent people to test it, and it works."
"It's great. The materials for making these soil fertilizers are simple and easy to obtain, and can be produced in large quantities. The problem of fertilizers needed for our crops in the future has been greatly solved."
"Captain, thank you for your hard work. It's definitely not easy to sort out these things."
The monk on the side did not dare to speak, but complained in his heart:
not easy? I remember that the group leader took the paper and finished writing in just a few minutes.
After chatting for a while, Li Wenjie asked Kong Jie some questions that needed to be consulted. Li Wenjie took the paper on the method of making soil fertilizer, said that the group leader and Lao Xu would chat first, and hurried away.
Looking at Li Wenjie leaving without stopping, Xu Guoan finally couldn't help it anymore and said happily:
"You old Kong, you really know how to take some time off from your busy schedule. Aren't you afraid of exhausting Wenjie?"
Kong Jie said happily: "What are you afraid of when you are a young man? Besides, Wenjie needs more practice. I am doing this for his own good. Old Xu, as promised, you are not allowed to undermine me."
Xu Guoan burst out laughing. What he didn't know was that when Captain Kong was smiling at him, he was also thinking about how to make Xu Guoan a young man and work as a coolie so that he could have more leisure!
Then Kong Jie and Xu Guoan discussed some intelligence work of the independent regiment.
Kong Jie had nothing to hide from his chief of staff.
He maintained peace with the Japanese and puppet troops around the base area on the surface, conducted business in private, and told the story about the purchase of food and military resources from Guizi County to the base area.
Xu Guoan admired him and said: "Old Kong, I really have you. You can fight and do business without delay!"
"To put it bluntly, this is the little Japs siding with the enemy! If this continues, the Japs and puppet troops will disintegrate on their own without having to do anything around our base area."
And Xu Guoan's words can be regarded as a prophecy.
Important towns around Yangquan.
The Japanese acting squadron leader Miki Ichiro and the puppet company commander Qian Dekai lived a happy life during this period.
Ever since he got on the line with Kong Jie and started secretly doing business with the Independent Regiment of the Eighth Route Army.
The independent group is located around the villages and towns in Yangquan. The cold-blooded sneak attacks against the Japanese and puppet troops were stopped.
In addition, the Eighth Route Army militia troops also stopped destroying Japanese and puppet military buildings, railway tracks and wires and other military facilities in the Yangquan area.
The Yangquan area became very peaceful as a result.
Compare the two.
Other counties, villages and towns surrounding the Eighth Route Army base areas.
The Eighth Route Army was still carrying out cold-blooded sneak attacks, and from time to time continued to carry out raids on the railway tracks, stealing wires, blowing up bridges, and making the enraged little devils increase troops and strengthen patrols again and again. The two sides were in a tit-for-tat contest. With.
The Japanese military command issued several commendations to Ichiro Miki for this purpose.
It is believed that Ichiro Miki did such a good job in dealing with the base areas of the Independent Regiment of the Eighth Route Army that the Eighth Route Army had no chance to carry out breakthrough operations and sneak attacks.
For this reason, Ichiro Miki became a regular official soon after and officially became the Japanese squadron leader of the town defenders in Yangquan area.
Through secret business and smuggling with the Independent Group, and secretly contacting many Japanese and puppet military officers in the surrounding area, Miki Ichiro and Qian Dekai made a lot of money by cooperating with the Independent Group through their own line.
The monthly income far exceeds the usual military pay, so much so that Ichiro Miki doesn't even look down on the small amount of military pay.
With money, Miki Ichiro quickly tied the surrounding Japanese and puppet army officers together through interests, and there was no internal unity.
But the intelligence department of the little devil is not just for free.
Over time, the Japanese secret service also discovered a problem. In the Yangquan area, the relationship between the Eighth Route Army and his imperial troops was too peaceful, and there was a subtle meaning in it.
Around other Eighth Route Army base areas, any troops that went into the mountains to raid would always fight with the Eighth Route Army, and the troops would suffer casualties.
Even the entire army was annihilated.
But in the Yangquan area, after the mopping up team entered the mountains, it was said that gunshots were also heard.
The teams that could return would at most have some wounded soldiers, and very few would be killed.
In addition, the Japanese military intelligence department monitored that during this period, it seemed that a large amount of food and many materials, including some military medicines, were gradually flowing to the area under the jurisdiction of Miki Ichiro and others.
But the garrison team around Yangquan definitely can't use so many supplies.
After noticing the problem, the relevant Japanese intelligence department reported the news to the headquarters.
The Japanese command headquarters wanted to investigate the specific situation.
So they sent the Japanese Army Major Takamoto Yuichi, a bit like an imperial envoy, to the villages and towns in Yangquan to investigate the specific situation.
After learning the news, Ichiro Sanmoto and Qian Dekai had a secret secret.
After Takamoto Yuichi arrived in the town, Miki Ichiro and Qian Dekai were very attentive and led a group of officers to prepare a reception banquet for Takamoto Yuichi at the best restaurant in the town.
I wanted everyone to get rich together and be kind, so I took advantage of Yuichi Takagi's mouth.
If Takagi Yuichi is willing, Miki Ichiro has even thought about pulling Takagi Yuichi to do business with the independent group and make a fortune together.
Who knew that Takamoto was very stubborn? Not only was he ungrateful, but the drinking party hadn't started yet. As soon as he arrived at the place, Takamoto scolded Ichiro Mimoto and other Japanese officers.
His attitude was extremely determined:
"Assholes, you have really ruined the face of the Imperial Japanese Army. You don't think about fighting, you only think about eating and drinking. Is this the way a soldier should behave?"
Looking at the Japanese officers who bowed their heads and remained silent, Takamoto Yuichi continued to burst out:
"Everyone, I don't care how corrupt you were before or what you did. After I arrive, the style of the army must be completely rectified."
"All departments must conduct corresponding verifications, and all strongholds, villages and towns must strengthen defense. Every two days, a rural clearing campaign must be carried out in major villages in the Eighth Route Army base area."
"Do you understand everything?"
"Hi!"
Ichiro Miki and other Japanese officers responded in unison, but their hearts were full of contempt.
The Qingxiang Movement, entering the Eighth Route Army’s guerrilla zones to raid them?
Sir, are you the birthday girl who hangs himself because you have a long life?
After the banquet broke up, Miki Ichiro secretly found a group of Japanese military officers who had business dealings with the Independence Regiment and secretly discussed:
"Major Takamoto wants to deal with the independent regiment, but he is simply overestimating his capabilities."
"We can't control him if he wants to die, but we must not let him ruin our way of making a fortune. If he dares to cut off our way of making money, it is tantamount to murdering our lives."
"You all have to make up your mind."
The Japanese officers expressed their opinions one after another, and everything was subject to Ichiro Miki's arrangements.
In the end, Miki Ichiro said: "Takagi is here under orders and has real power. He wants to enter the Eighth Route Army base area and raid, and we can't control it, but we can't let his raids create a gap between us and the independent regiment."
"In this way, I will find a way to pass the news to the Eighth Route Army and let them prepare. At least let them understand that the raid on the Jin base area is not our idea."
All the Japanese officers expressed that this plan was very clever, and the plan was settled...
