Lu Dayou smiled, he was waiting for Captain Chen to take the initiative to ask this question!
Deser's expression appeared on Captain Lu's face, "Old Chen, guess what, how many patients have appeared in my entire 28th regiment in the past week?"
Captain Chen shook his head, "Lao Lu, our old comrade, if you have anything to say, just say it directly, and don't beat around the bush with me."
"good!"
Captain Lu responded with a smile, and said in a shocking tone: "So far, for nearly a week, our 28th Regiment has nine patients, and in this nearly week, this number has not increased.
On the contrary, there are still two patients who have been nursed back to health and have fully recovered. In other words, there are 28 of us.
If distributed equally to each company.
Less than one person was lost due to illness. "
As soon as these words came out, cadres at all levels were surprised.
Commander Chen was even more disbelieving and said: "How is this possible? How could there ever be a day when there are no soldiers in our army who are suffering from aches and pains?
Your 28th regiment has nearly 2,000 troops, which is much more than our regiment. Does that mean there are only seven patients in the entire regiment now? "
"good!"
Lu Dayou replied decisively.
He changed the subject: "Actually, this is not surprising. What you saw about the bunk beds where the soldiers of our 28th Regiment slept can explain all this.
Although I don't know medical skills, I still understand the principle that diseases enter through the mouth.
The soldiers of my 28th regiment stopped drinking raw water and only drank boiled hot water.
Also maintain personal hygiene, cut your nails frequently, and wash your hands frequently.
With these measures in place, our soldiers can get sick less often or even not at all. "
Speaking of this, Captain Li sighed with emotion: "Old Chen, you said that what is most heartbreaking for us is that the soldiers did not die on the battlefield, but were attrition due to illness.
But why can't this be put right?
It is said that the body is the capital of revolution. If we don't have a strong body, how can we fight against those little sons of bitches?
And we call for good hygiene precisely to ensure the revolutionary capital of our soldiers.
In the words of Lao Confucius, this is called anti-Japanese sanitation. It ensures both personal and collective sanitary conditions. It is also an important part of the great anti-Japanese cause.
Therefore, our old comrades came to our 28th Regiment to visit, exchange and learn. After much thought, I finally decided to take the lead in showing this scene of anti-war sanitation to everyone. "
"Comrades, although we do not have the conditions to pay attention to the quality of life, we should consciously pay attention to personal and collective hygiene!"
The cadres looked thoughtful.
Finally, Captain Chen took the lead and said: "Old Lu, you are right, our soldiers can make heroic sacrifices on the battlefield, but we must not succumb to this small disease.
Hygiene is the war of resistance, so well said!
Just for this reason, this visit to Lao Lu’s 28th Group for exchange and study is not in vain! "
The leaders of other regiments also responded and kept the importance of anti-war sanitation in their hearts.
Captain Lu smiled happily.
"Ahem, comrades, since we want to carry out anti-war sanitation, the first thing we must do is ensure that the soldiers have hot water to drink.
What are the benefits of drinking hot water? I have fully realized these days. It is no exaggeration to say that drinking hot water can cure all diseases! "
"So our shop uses briquettes that can boil water 24 hours a day, saving money and time, and this briquette stove. If our groups want it, they can come to me after this visit and exchange."
The leaders of each regiment naturally responded.
Then Lu Dayou gave the cadres hard food and took everyone to visit the artillery unit of the 28th Regiment.
Of course, like Kong Jie's independent regiment, which is an artillery battalion and an artillery company, and has all the background of infantry artillery and mountain artillery, the 28th Regiment does not have it.
At this moment, Captain Lu showed the Japanese grenade captured by the 28th Regiment to cadres at all levels.
It was also modified by the independent regiment's armorer. The barrel was partially lengthened and thickened, and a bracket was added to the grenade tube.
Commander Zhou smiled at this: "I said, Lao Lu, aren't you the Japanese grenade unit?
If this grenade is equipped with a tripod, it will become an artillery unit? "
Lu Da further explained: "Don't underestimate the small tripod attached to the grenade.
With the addition of this tripod, this Japanese 50mm grenade is similar in principle to the mortar we are more familiar with.
Although the Japanese grenade is flexible, it is too difficult to operate.
Even a Japanese grenade soldier needs to go through at least half a year of training and consume a considerable amount of live ammunition before he can become a veteran who can skillfully operate a grenade and achieve a high hit rate.
But our Eighth Route Army does not have this condition!
Then we can only find a way to convert the Japanese grenades into the small mortars we are accustomed to using.
This Japanese grenade, or 50 cannon, equipped with a tripod, according to our mortar usage and experience, if our soldiers train it, it can be completed in about two months. This is comparable to the Japanese training a Grenadier soldiers save much time and effort. "
He continued: "Lao Kong and I were talking about the Japanese grenades and our mortars.
Lao Kong even made it clear that small-caliber artillery that was too difficult to operate, such as the Little Japanese grenade, would sooner or later be eliminated by the war.
For example, if our team captures the Japanese grenade launchers, we will rarely fight against the Japanese soldiers in the same manner as the Japanese grenade launchers.
The conventional mortars we use are different. They are simple to use and easy to operate. No matter how the war evolves, there will always be a place for it.
In this regard, Lao Kong and I have the same opinion. "
“So, one of the contents of the major training of our 28th regiment is to train the artillery troops with these 50 small artillery pieces.
Including single-fire training, group-fire training, cooperation training between gunners and commanders, as well as infantry and artillery collaborative training, etc.
We have to capture the Japanese grenades, modify them, install brackets, and even lengthen and thicken the barrel to increase the range of these 50-gun cannons.
Create a small 50 cannon that can in turn suppress the Japanese grenades.
If we don't win on the basis of quality, and our army's logistics supply is far inferior to that of the Japanese, do we still have to find ways to win on the basis of quantity? "
This insight once again left all the cadres speechless.
A group leader asked a key question:
"Lao Lu, it's easy for you to say that. Many of our troops don't even have a repair shop. Even if they can add a tripod to the Japanese grenade, I'm afraid they can't do it.
Not to mention transforming it into a 50 cannon.
Even if the Japanese grenades are captured, where can they be transformed into 50 cannons?
How to train artillery troops? "
"Haha, Lao Su, your question is on point."
Lu Dayou smiled and let out Shi Dahu, who had a big beard and a smile on his face.
When all the cadres looked confused, Lu Dayou introduced with a smile: "This is Comrade Shi Dahu. For some reasons, I will not introduce you to his specific identity.
Everyone can understand that Comrade Shi Dahu is a special commissioner of a team.
Moreover, on the phone, Lao Kong made it clear to me that Comrade Shi Dahu came here on behalf of the Independent Group and Lao Kong this time.
Lao Kong said that he acknowledged everything Comrade Shi Dahu said and promised, and he would do it. "
As soon as these words came out, the cadres were surprised.
Now a team with unparalleled reputation.
Detachment leader Kong Jie and Boss Kong are well known to everyone, not only in the Taihang and Taiyue base areas, but also in the Jizhong and Jinnan troops.
The First Detachment of Northwest Shanxi, which was able to force the Japanese First Army to do nothing, was not blind to the limelight.
It is the most widely spread and deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
It's funny to say.
It's not that Kong Jie quickly built up a team of troops and won one battle after another with the style of a tiger general.
On the contrary, it was Kong Jie who vigorously developed the economy of a team and even led to unprecedented economic development in the entire Taihang and Taiyue base areas. He was known as "Boss Kong".
The cadres have long heard about it.
Captain Kong is the best at doing business.
Not to mention my own comrades, including the Jinsui Army and the National Army, I heard that even the Japanese and puppet troops were eager to send food and money to a team.
Moreover, there are some regimental leaders who are close to Kong Jie, such as Li Yunlong of the New Second Regiment, Ding Wei of the New First Regiment, Captain Feng of the Fifth Regiment, etc.
Each regiment is developing extremely rapidly, and the lives of the soldiers in the regiment are even more prosperous.
For this reason, many Eighth Route Army generals who heard the rumors gave Kong Jie a good name, calling him "Kong Caishen!"
And the bearded and seemingly unattractive Shi Dahu in front of him can actually be the representative of Kong Caishen.
It’s no wonder that the cadres’ burning eyes were full of curiosity and doubt.
Ahem——
After coughing twice, Shi Dahu spoke loudly:
"Hello, fellow heads and political commissars, I am Shi Dahu.
This time I came to the 28th group of the brigade leader, and I took advantage of the opportunity for everyone to come to exchange and learn. In fact, if it’s not for anything else, it was the leader of my family who specially told me to come and give everyone a fortune. . "
The conversation started, but Shi Dahu didn't give the other cadres a chance to ask.
His speaking speed increased a bit:
“The regiment lacks equipment and ammunition, there are no machine guns or artillery, and two people cannot even carry a gun on their backs. There are only three or five bullets per person, and the rifling of the guns used is almost worn out.
All year round, they can only eat chaffy vegetables. Sometimes when they are short of food, they have to go up the mountain to peel bark and chew leaves. They can't get a bit of meat all year round.
The regiment had no source of income and relied on the common people to squeeze out some anti-Japanese food to survive.
The new recruits were not issued military uniforms, so they trained in a single coat in the middle of winter. It was so cold that they had to stuff tree leaves inside the jacket's jacket.
Normally, let alone training, I would be so hungry and dizzy just lying in the store.
In a word, those who are short of money, those who are short of guns, those who are short of food, those who are short of ammunition, those who are short of supplies..."
Shi Dahu, who paused in his words, glanced at the faces of the group leaders and political commissars in front of him.
Hesitation, expectation, shame, helplessness, bitterness...
The expressions of the generals who had been trampled on so painfully were all seen by Shi Dahu.
His words were impassioned, decisive, and solemn:
"...Everyone can come to me and cooperate with our team. My team leader said that the work of the team leaders in Jizhong is not easy, and he can help everyone.
As long as everyone is willing to come, my team leader will have a way to solve all the problems I mentioned above for you. "
"Lack of equipment and ammunition, lack of equipment and artillery? No problem. Our team has a repair shop, an arsenal, an explosives factory, and a bullet and artillery shell production line. Our team leader said that as long as everyone sends the raw materials, the processing and transportation will be done. Problem, we as a team will figure it out on our own.
The regiment is really in short supply of equipment and ammunition, and my regiment leader can even advance a batch of supplies for everyone.
The life in the group is poor and there is no source of income?
No problem, our team has a large number of daily necessities processing plants and production plants, and a large amount of stored goods can be supplied to each group for external sales at any time.
On the one hand, they are selling, and on the other hand, they are using sales to find out the military situation in enemy-occupied areas. This kind of good thing is not done in vain.
You get a big share of the money you make, my team leader said, he can just take some hard work money..."
These words fell down.
After the group leaders were stunned for a while, they all woke up one after another as if they were enlightened.
Captain Zhou asked nervously: "Comrade Shi Dahu, no, Lao Shi, do you take what you said seriously? Do they really represent Lao Kong himself?"
Shi Dahu smiled: "Captain Zhou, if you can't trust me, why bother asking me?"
Captain Chen pushed Captain Zhou away and said with a smile on his face: "How can you not believe this? Who in the entire Hebei Province doesn't know that Lao Kong is a real person?
Now that he has said it, he must not deceive everyone.
Lao Zhou is a stubborn guy. Lao Shi, please ignore him. Tell me, what should we do specifically? "
Shi Dahu smiled and said: "Actually, it's very simple. In Jizhong and our southern Hebei, we have many ways to make a fortune and develop equipment, but we just haven't grasped them."
"oh?"
"Haven't we already promoted tunnel warfare in central Hebei and southern Hebei? This tunnel warfare can not only be used to fight against the Japanese.
Conducting sabotage raids, destroying the enemy's transportation lines, digging the enemy's railway tracks, and cutting the enemy's wires are all excellent ways to obtain military raw materials.
Sneak attacks on the Japanese warehouses, sneak attacks on the Japanese communication stations, power supply stations, and train stations. With so many troops in our Central Hebei Army and so much support from the masses, even if we sneak into the Japanese county town and tighten two screws a day, it will not take long. Still a fortune.
Previously there was no place to utilize these raw materials.
But it’s different now. Each of our regiments has obtained the materials, whether it’s for a sabotage attack or a sneak attack. Once the raw materials have been obtained, they can just be sent to our independent regiment.
After being processed and produced by our independent regiment arsenal, what comes back to everyone is guns and ammunition. "
"In addition, we can still do business. The Japanese and puppet soldiers in enemy-occupied areas are also human beings and still need to live. As long as our products are good, the Japanese and puppet soldiers will rush to buy them.
As long as we can open up the sales channels from our base areas to enemy-occupied areas, are we still afraid that the Japanese will not be able to put the money in our pockets and buy the necessary military supplies? "
"As for the construction of troops, it will be more convenient. Whether it is engineers, infantry, artillery, automobile troops, or even tank troops, everyone must have heard that our team has held a military skills meeting at the call of the regiment leader. Cultural classes.
Whether they are comrades from our regiments who want to learn cultural knowledge or want to learn military skills and train corresponding arms, they can go to our first team to learn.
In a word, as long as everyone is willing to cooperate with our team for win-win results and develop together.
Our leader has said that we will not treat you badly..."
Just like that, Captain Lu was originally going to take the commanders of each regiment to see the rest of his 28th regiment's military training!
The result was good, as all the cadres' attention was focused on Shi Dahu.
In the end, under Shi Dahu's analysis and heartfelt persuasion, the heads and political commissars of each regiment expressed their willingness to cooperate with a team in military, economic and even cultural aspects.
Later, I don’t know who came up with the idea.
When Shi Dahu took out a piece of white paper.
The leaders of each group rushed to sign their names and even used red clay to make their fingerprints.
As if he was afraid that Kong Jie would not admit it.
Good name:
Sign a roster with a team!
After the completion, the commanders and political commissars of each regiment visited other aspects of the 28th regiment's military training.
In addition to the large-scale military training, there are also troops rectification and streamlined administration, as well as large-scale production activities in the entire base area to cope with the parallel situation of natural and man-made disasters under the heavy blockade of the Japanese army.
Implement a system of rent reduction and interest reduction for local areas to encourage people to farm.
In addition, Lu Dayou also followed Kong Jie's approach and performed some promotional and cultural drama performances around the 28th Regiment.
Even within enemy-occupied areas, relevant comrades secretly performed some revolutionary cultural propaganda performances.
What is important is that the revolutionary culture is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
Now that winter is approaching, taking advantage of the temporary break between winter and the Japanese army, winter studies are still being carried out in the army to allow soldiers to learn cultural knowledge and military combat theories.
During the visit, the political commissars of each regiment never stopped writing pens in their hands.
Finally came home with a full load!
As for the leaders and political commissars of each regiment who said goodbye and left with smiles on their faces, they were happy to have obtained the scriptures in the 28th regiment.
I am still happy to be able to cooperate with the independent group.
Commander Lu is unknown.
After thinking about it afterwards, Captain Lu suddenly realized that something was not quite right.
"Lao Shi, this old Kong asked the monk to send a message early in the morning to help me plan a large-scale military training in the 28th Regiment, and also convened an exchange and study session for cadres at all levels. Is he rushing to promote our large-scale military training, or is he taking advantage of this Is there an opportunity for you to come and help him with business?"
Shi Dahu said without changing his expression: "Captain Lu, look at what you said, does he have a conflict with this kind of thing?"
Captain Lu: "..."
Shi Dahu said: "Oh, Commander Lu, our commander said that this matter comes first, first served, and the relationship has closeness and distance. No matter how many Jizhong troops it cooperates with, the 28th Regiment will always be the first to cooperate with our team. Serial!"
Hearing this, Captain Lu, who was originally frowning, relaxed his brows and said with a smile:
"If you say that, then I'll be relieved."
"Lao Kong is still kind!"
