Aunt Qingqing thought Captain Yang was going to let them help with the cooking.
Captain Yang smiled: "Aunt Wang, don't worry. This time, we have prepared a large amount of food and are trying to find a way to transport it to the enemy-occupied area. I have to trouble you to let the young girls whose feet are not bound do some work."
"That's right! Don't think I'm old, I can also move." The wrinkles on the aunt's face quickly spread: "The girls have hidden in the tunnel, I'm going to call them out right away!"
After the aunt finished speaking, she bounced her little feet, turned around and walked towards the village.
Captain Yang was stunned: "Hey, don't worry, the food hasn't been delivered yet. Please quickly ask someone to move these two bags of food away..."
The aunt turned to look at Captain Yang: "I'm going to ask my girls to come out and meet the comrades in the work team, otherwise one day this old guy like me will be gone and no one in the village will know you!"
Looking at the hunched figure walking away, Captain Yang was silent for a while, then lowered his voice and asked: "Counsel Hu, when will the batch of grain you mentioned arrive?"
"It should be during this time!" Hu Yi was a little surprised: "Didn't they send a batch over some time ago?"
"If it hadn't been for the batch of food you sent, I guess you wouldn't have seen anyone in these villages when you came this time!"
Gao Yidao frowned and asked, "Did she just say that she still had food hidden?"
"We sent some food to the Bastion Village some time ago, but with just that amount of food, there are too many people in the base area, and we simply can't hold on for a few days!"
"Are there no landowners nearby?"
Captain Yang smiled bitterly with resentment: "When the Japanese raided, they directly robbed people. The puppet army arrested people if they didn't give them. The guild was even more ruthless. They knew which houses had food and directly kidnapped people for extortion. Landlords with a little wealth either joined the guild or had already Just ran away, how can ordinary people survive? The superiors also asked us not to attack the local tycoons, and we asked those big families to borrow money. You all know... In these days, how can people be willing? "
Gao Yidao suddenly thought of something: "Hey, Captain Yang, tell me something."
"Uh, what's the matter?"
Gao Yidao glared at Hu Yi next to him with a dark face, and then lowered his voice: "Are there any bandits nearby?"
Captain Yang shook his head: "Are you talking about suppressing bandits? I advise you not to take advantage of them. They have also eaten the last meal without finishing the meal."
Gao Yidao smiled mysteriously: "How about we attack the grain trains on the Japanese Railway..."
"I have tried all the ways I can think of. The Japs are heavily guarded against the railways. After the guerrillas did two attacks, the Japs have stepped up patrols on the railway transportation and added escort troops on the trains. There is simply no way to do this."
"There is a place, but..." Captain Yang looked to the south.
Hu Yi, who was next to him, suddenly said: "Are you talking about our friendly forces? If it doesn't work, we can discuss it with the national army in the south."
"The discussion will definitely not work out. Our divisional commander has personally stepped in. They won't accept this trick at all. The reason for the refusal is also very simple. The national army has issued a strict order not to allow even a grain of food to enter enemy-occupied areas. Otherwise, we will be punished for collaborating with the enemy. Even if you have money, you can’t buy it!”
Gao Yidao glanced at Hu Yi: "If there is a bandit nearby, and the bandit steals the national army's food..."
Captain Yang immediately came to his senses: "Robbing food? Deliberately creating friction. This is a serious violation of discipline and cannot be done."
Gao Yidao curled his lips: "Have you forgotten? Two years ago, the Kuomintang teamed up with the Japanese to launch a large-scale attack on my base area?"
"You two, just pretend I didn't hear this, and you can't say it again." After Captain Yang finished speaking, he picked up a bag of grain on the ground, turned around and left.
When Captain Yang walked away, Hu Yi looked at Gao Yidao: "I heard that the active Black Tiger Village bandits in the west have entered the enemy war zone. What do you think about this?"
Gao Yidao clenched his fists with a dark face: "The bandits in Black Tiger Village should consider the idea of attacking the national army."
Hu Yi was a little speechless. This was similar to finding Li Youde before. However, the division surnamed Li was far away in the mountains in the west, so he couldn't do it. However, the national army had collected a lot of bandits in the plains and armed them into guerrillas. If they fought Their idea was a good choice.
. . .
More than ten miles to the north, Wang Sanzhu, the bandit leader who had taken refuge with the Japanese, led a team of more than 100 people all the way south from Neihuang County.
Seeing that it was getting dark, one of his men was a little worried: "Commander, there are Eighth Route Army activities here, should we be more careful?"
"You are getting more and more popular with me as an official, but your burden is getting smaller and smaller? The Imperial Alliance Army has just pulled up the net to sweep, and the Eighth Route Army has disappeared long ago. What are you afraid of?"
"We are fine porcelain. If we compete with those broken bricks and tiles from the Eighth Route Army, wouldn't it be a loss for Dafa?"
"Are you afraid of Tubalu who has two or three bullets in his gun?"
"I just feel that if we accept commissions from the national army and are adapted from the imperial army at the same time, if they find out, wouldn't we be like a rat in the bellows, suffering from both ends?"
"You idiot, haven't you ever heard of the word bipartisanship?"
"Hey, brother, you are educated and have attended a military academy. How can any brother compare to you?"
"Don't flatter me. We are the Imperial Army in the city. When we leave the city, we are the National Army guerrillas. If we encounter the Eighth Route Army, we will highlight our identity as the National Army. He dares to touch even one of my hairs." , I can make him walk around without food!"
"What if the Eighth Route Army is playing dirty tricks? Those martial arts teams of his are all-pervasive. I heard that yesterday another second lieutenant of the Imperial Army hacked a blockhouse."
"Don't be discouraged. In this area, he doesn't have as many people and guns as me on the Eighth Route Army. How dare he challenge me with his low-ranking military workers who only know how to shoot black guns?"
"Commander, you know that's not what I meant. It's just that Brigadier Tang, the general under Commander Li of the First Route Army, died at the hands of the Eighth Route Army last year. We have to guard against it."
"I said you have just entered the city two days ago and you have become so worried about small things after marrying a wife?"
"We are going to your father-in-law's house now. Do you dare to say that it wasn't that girl from the Zhou family's idea?"
"Hey, when will it be your turn to talk about my family affairs?"
...
As the team continued to advance, Commander Wang felt that this area was not too scary. He had more than a hundred men under his command, and they were now well-established national guerrillas. Who would dare to say no to him in this area?
It's dark.
Entering a village in a big way.
The villagers also gathered directly at the entrance of the village as usual.
The village chief recognized Commander Wang and trotted forward and handed over his hands: "Oh, it's Commander Wang. Are you looking for the Eighth Route Army again when you come to our village?"
"What the hell, I said hello specifically. The Imperial Alliance Army came over two days ago and didn't give you any trouble, right?"
"Fortunately, before the Imperial Alliance Army came here, every household in our village hid all their food, so nothing happened!"
"This time the Imperial Alliance Army is here to capture the Eighth Route Army," Commander Wang scolded the flattering village chief: "What are you doing, you old boy? Hurry up and take people to cook for the team. We have brought the food ourselves. Hurry up and find the third master and bake the steamed buns for lunch tomorrow."
The village chief immediately raised his thumb: "The boss is so generous."
Commander Wang shook his head: "Don't bullshit me. I still don't like your precious sorghum rice. Even if you give it to me to feed the dogs, the dogs won't eat it!"
