Cough cough cough——
Brigadier Chen couldn't help coughing... You useless guy, if Kong Jie tells you to go east, you will never go west. So, do you listen to me, the brigade commander, or do you listen to him, Kong Jie?
Captain Wang, who immediately realized that he was too excited, laughed twice, and then temporarily hid the excitement in his heart.
We can't blame Captain Wang for being so excited.
For a long time, as a pure iron-blooded general and a fierce man in war, Captain Wang, who has the nickname of Crazy King, has always been incompetent in fighting.
In the entire base area, including the Japanese security area, he can be seen beating down the Japanese invaders almost everywhere.
But there is only one thing. Although Commander Wang is good at leading troops to fight, he is not good at developing the economic construction of the army.
Especially as the main combat regiment that frequently fights on the front line and does not have a particularly stable base, under such circumstances, the entire army has been busy fighting.
There is simply no extra time to engage in economic soft power development.
So it often goes like this:
When the little devils attack, the whole 769 group can eat meat. After all, there is money to be made.
If we take down some of the Japanese transport teams and attack some of the Japanese warehouses and arsenals, the equipment level and living standards of the soldiers of the 769th Regiment can be directly improved to a higher level in a short period of time.
But when there were no little Japs to fight, life was very tight for those in the 769th Regiment.
To put it figuratively, one meal when hungry and one meal when full.
Sometimes I can't even walk, and sometimes I'm so hungry that I almost faint.
In fact, the general situation is not much different from when Li Yunlong led the new regiment.
Captain Wang and Li Yunlong seem to adhere to the same principles:
When do the troops eat meat?
Of course that's when we fight the Japanese!
Meeting the little devil was like celebrating the New Year in advance for Li Yunlong and Captain Wang.
But once there is no fighting, the Japanese blockade is fierce, even for a regimental leader like Li Yunlong who knows how to play house.
The troops still had their last meal but not their next meal.
How about he, Commander Li, don't even have a change of clothes? The collar of his clothes is black and greasy over the years?
Just as Li Yunlong said to the brigade commander on the phone, sometimes it is really hard to get rid of the pot.
If we don't wait until the little devils enter the guerrilla zone, the whole group will be hungry!
Later, under the leadership of Kong Jie, Li Yunlong followed a team to carry out various economic cooperation, and this really enriched his family's wealth.
At this time, the heads of other regiments were almost in the same situation, and they all took over the cooperation plans that Kong Jie brought over.
After browsing through them, everyone's face was filled with joy.
What else can Ding Wei and Li Yunlong say about this?
I can only give Kong Jie a thumbs up.
Li Yunlong turned to Ding Wei and said, "Old Ding, do you know what it's like to be sold and help count the money?
Just like this situation.
What I know is that Lao Kong secretly expanded his cooperation partners and found a group of long-term workers who worked hard to help him make money.
For those who don’t know, I would have thought that the leaders of the 385th Brigade were greatly indebted to him, Lao Kong! "
Ding Wei nodded in agreement: "Yes, Lao Li, I can tell. If we are tied together in economic construction and development, I'm afraid we are no match for Lao Kong.
This guy even farts and thinks about how to make money!
What should we compare with him? "
"The truth!" Li Yunlong said.
"Old Li and Old Ding, what are you two talking about?" Kong Jie, who was not far away, asked doubtfully.
Li Yunlong replied: "This gift from you, Lao Kong, is really wonderful!"
Kong Jie: "By the way, Lao Li, speaking of which, this gift is not just for the 385th Brigade. In addition, I have also specially prepared a New Year's gift for you.
It is also to strengthen the close cooperation between our two groups.
In addition, I plan to unite all the military production of my team, including other civilian production factories, and then establish a comprehensive company integrating R&D, production, and sales for both military and civilian use.
To put it simply, we are our own bosses and control the operations of the entire company.
I guess there is still a need for a second-in-command right now. Lao Li, I wonder if you have this intention? "
"Old Li——" Ding Wei stretched out his hand.
"What?" Li Yunlong approached.
"Old Li!" Ding Wei shouted again.
Li Yunlong, who has a big tail, is wagging his tail happily now.
"Yes, there must be! Lao Kong, we have agreed that you, the company's second-in-command, will be made by us, Lao Li. Whoever dares to rob me will be the one I will fight with!"
"By the way, Lao Kong, what are we going to name our company?"
"Huasheng! May China prosper and may the motherland prosper!" Kong Jie said.
Li Yunlong sighed: "Beautiful, this name is so well chosen, it deserves to be your old Kong!"
Not far away, Ding Wei silently swallowed the words that were stuck in his throat and was about to stop Li Yunlong, and then quickly took two steps to catch up.
"Lao Kong, is Huasheng Company's third-in-command...still lacking?"
…
…
In the end, as the plan sent by Kong Jie was quickly unfolded, a team will carry out close military-industrial and various economic cooperation projects with the frontline combat units of the 385 Brigade, including the base areas, and it was thus determined down.
The cadres of the 385th Brigade were deeply moved by this:
The rumors outside are indeed true: Kong Dawei, the God of Wealth, is here in person, and it’s hard not to get rich!
As for whether they can make a fortune after cooperation, none of the cadres doubted it.
As of now, everyone in the entire Eighth Route Army knows the names of Kong Jie, Kong Wuwan, and Kong Caishen.
As well as the financial system of the Eighth Route Army base centered on a team that Kong Jie built in northwest Shanxi over the years.
Who dares to question Kong Jie's ability to engage in economics, and who dares to question that he can't make a fortune by following Kong Jie?
That is equivalent to questioning that Han Xin, the military immortal, cannot lead troops to fight. It is the same reason.
After the plan for win-win cooperation and making a fortune together is agreed upon.
The entire 385th Brigade Headquarters was filled with a cheerful atmosphere.
Then, the topic shifted to the current battle situation.
As Kong Jie said:
"The most important thing for us right now is how to deal with the Japs. If we cannot ensure the stability of the base area, it may be difficult for us to carry out various economic developments.
This is an inevitable dead end.
Relatively speaking, the more stable the base area is, the more stable and rapid the economic development will be.
Therefore, fellow veterans, the combat situation with the Japanese troops around our 385th Brigade base area still needs to be further stabilized. "
The cadres nodded one after another, and Brigadier Chen asked: "Kong Jie, do you have any special strategy for this?"
Brigadier Chen asked this not intentionally to test Kong Jie, but sincerely asking.
For a long time, Kong Jie's reputation as someone who knows how to engage in economics, such as Kong Wuwan and Kong Caishen, has been too strong.
It even concealed Kong Jie's talents in combat command, overall planning, planning and analysis to a certain extent.
But leaders like Brigadier Chen who really understand Kong Jie know it very well.
Kong Jie's military command ability and ability to analyze the battle situation are also quite powerful.
As Kong Jie said, the development of this economy is inseparable from the stability of the base area, and the stability of the base area is naturally inseparable from the battle against the Japanese army.
A team's military and economy can develop rapidly simultaneously.
Doesn't this explain the problem?
Even the heavy artillery captured during a visit to Li Yunlong's New Second Regiment yesterday, when Li Yunlong proposed the amazing idea of creating a rapid reaction force directly under Taihang, creating a mobile ace combat force that the Eighth Route Army troops can radiate in all directions.
According to Li Yunlong himself, it was Kong Jie who first proposed it.
There are also militia training manuals, including the Barefoot Doctor Manual compiled by Kong Jie from doctors from all over the country.
Install the latest version. 】
Head north to reinforce Jizhong.
Open up Zhongtiao Mountain to the south.
It is said that before the battle of Zhongtiao Mountain started, Kong Jie had already taken the lead in anticipating the disastrous defeat of the national army and sent a mountain combat force into Zhongtiao Mountain in advance to wait for the opportunity.
Finally, based on this mountain combat force, the Zhongtiao Mountain Anti-Japanese Revolutionary Base Area was opened up.
... Faced with Brigadier Chen's inquiry, Kong Jie did not hide it, he said directly: "Old leader, your question has always been considered by us generals fighting on the front line.
When we were at the brigade headquarters, we had many discussions with the brigade commander and political commissar.
Ultimately, we believe that in order to develop a stable anti-Japanese revolutionary base area, we must also develop the military construction of the troops and the economic construction of the base area.
It’s nothing more than two points! "
"This first point is exactly the external operations, the attack against Japan. Without the military offensive, the troops will not be able to make progress, the combat effectiveness will not be improved, and the base areas will not be able to expand and develop.
In addition, the defense within the base area is naturally included in military operations.
Personally, I always believe that the best defense is offense.
Of course, there is a premise for this, that is, the military quality of our troops has been improved, the equipment level of the troops has also been improved, and the logistics capabilities have also been guaranteed.
Only with these three sufficient foundations can we talk about proactive attack.
The ultimate goal of the offensive is to directly regain lost ground and break through some large strongholds heavily guarded by the Japanese army and counties and towns on important transportation lines. This is simply not realistic in the short term.
We can actually predict the situation of the Sino-Japanese war.
Japan's surrender did not end with the defeat of all its troops and the recovery of all its lost territory.
Instead, it ended when the Japanese army's resources were unsustainable, its troops gradually collapsed, and its national strength was simply unable to continue to support the war. It retreated on its own and voluntarily surrendered.
This is how war between countries ultimately ends. "
“So, what we have to do is not to directly defeat the Japanese and puppet troops at great sacrifice.
Instead, they stuck to the base area, gradually leading to the internal disintegration and collapse of the Japanese army, and ultimately won the protracted Anti-Japanese War. "
"So, I think the best goal of our Eighth Route Army base area attack during the strategic stalemate stage is to force the Japanese army to completely withdraw from our base area, and can only be forced to defend the last few stable counties, towns and other security areas, as well as Near some important transportation lines.
In addition, the vast suburbs are the solid base areas of our Eighth Route Army. This is the best situation. "
Kong Jie's words made the cadres think deeply.
Finally, Brigadier Chen broke the silence and nodded: "That's good, but what about the second point?"
Kong Jie said: “The second point actually lies in the defense and development of our base area.
As for the specific defense aspect, when I discussed it with the brigade commander, I finally came to the conclusion.
Strengthen the internal defense of major base areas, try to connect all base areas as completely as possible, ensure that there are no flaws or flaws in the defense of the base areas, and finally completely eliminate Japanese, puppet, recalcitrant and other enemy forces in the base areas, including our outer guerrilla zones. to squeeze out of the base area.
Let's turn our base into an iron barrel.
This is like pulling out pus. Only by completely squeezing out the pus can our base area develop in a healthier and better way. "
"Squeeze it out! It's interesting. This way of pulling out pus is very vivid!"
Brigadier Chen couldn't help laughing.
Finally, he praised: "If these two points can be carried out smoothly, it will indeed enable our army's base area to develop most stably and rapidly during the strategic stalemate stage.
Moreover, if we can reach this point, I think the strategic stalemate will only be temporary. The final victory can almost be determined and belongs to our Chinese nation! "
Kong Jie's words also convinced Brigadier Chen that this time he invited Kong Jie, Li Yunlong, and Ding Wei to come to the 385th Brigade to teach the generals under his command about the Northern Shanxi Iron Triangle. The experience of economic development is definitely correct.
Then, everyone's topic shifted to the news recently discovered by Kong Jie's team:
The Japanese army built a temporary airfield at its base camp in Licheng County.
Brigadier Chen said: "The Japanese suddenly built a temporary airport near Licheng County, and they must have a plan.
After I received the news, I sent all the intelligence personnel out to inquire about the relevant situation in Licheng County.
But so far, we don’t know the specific purpose of why the little devils built this temporary airport in Licheng County.
However, according to our comrades' investigation, the Japanese have indeed increased the vigilance in the entire Licheng County area during this period.
When entering and exiting the city gate, the Japanese defenders were even very strict about checking certificates of good citizenship or certificates of entry and exit. "
Kong Jie immediately said that he wanted to go to Licheng.
"This won't work, Kong Jie, you don't understand the situation. The Japanese have posted a notice of a hundred thousand oceans for your head, which has already been posted in Licheng!"
Brigadier Chen rejected Kong Jie's idea on the spot and expressed concern about it.
Kong Jie smiled and said: "Don't worry, Brigadier, nothing will go wrong.
You think, now that the notices offering a reward for my head have been posted in Licheng, the Japanese and puppet soldiers will not believe that I, Kong Jie, dare to make this trip.
I just went anyway, how could the little devil think of it? "
“When I came here this time, in addition to our cadres’ exchange and study, the brigade commander specifically asked me, Lao Li, and Lao Ding to investigate the situation of the temporary airport built by the Japanese in Licheng County.
We can't just stay in your brigade and enjoy peace and quiet all day long, right? "
"It's just that the little devils have been heavily guarded in Licheng these days, so it may not be easy to get in and out!" Commander Wang reminded.
"Don't worry, I've already prepared for this!" Kong Jie said, shouting towards the door, "Monk, bring us our good citizen certificate and access certificate!"
"Eh!"
The monk outside the house responded and immediately took out some certificates of good citizenship that Kong Jie had specially brought this time, including some certificates of entry and exit specially stamped and issued by the Japanese command department, or documents certified by Japanese merchants. .
"Good guy, Lao Kong, where did you get these things?
With these proofs, you kid can completely create a Japanese identity and walk around the entire city of Licheng! "
Kong Jie said with a smile: "There are quite a few Japanese businessmen doing business with my team, including some officers of the Japanese and puppet troops. It is not difficult to get some proof!"
"ox!"
Captain Wang gave a thumbs up.
Brigadier Chen had nothing to say. As a result, Kong Jie and others pretended to be a little more dressed up and used these certificates issued by the Japanese.
There is absolutely no problem in sneaking into Licheng smoothly...
