The next day.
Ma Jinshan took action according to several suggestions given by Ye Anran.
He arranged small dining tables at major traffic arteries and markets in Hecheng City, posted recruitment notices, and arranged personnel responsible for recruiting soldiers.
All troops responded to Ma Jinshan's order one after another, and each division, brigade, and regiment sent recruitment instructors.
The three million yuan that had just been raised was carried to the army recruitment post before it was warmed up.
Anyone who signs up to join the army will get two yuan per person.
Hecheng provincial capital.
Xie Ke and several educated officers wrote big-character posters.
Some are related to conscription, some are related to military construction, and some are related to digging transportation trenches to recruit labor.
Everyone was very busy.
The reason for the Northeast Army's recent successive victories in the Anti-Japanese War was that there were long queues at the recruitment posts throughout Hecheng.
Except for the main troops stationed along the front line, all other troops were engaged in digging communication trenches.
According to Ye Anran's requirements, the traffic trench is 1.5 meters wide and 1.5 meters deep. The slope is 15 centimeters high outward and has a slope plane of about 65 degrees inward.
When Ye Anran woke up, it was almost noon.
After washing up, he went out and saw soldiers digging communication trenches.
They used shovels, pickaxes and hoes to dig hard!
The brothers are very motivated.
Ye Anran was very pleased that Ma Jinshan could implement his suggestions well, which proved that it was the right thing to choose to join Ma Jinshan at that time.
Seeing Ye Anran standing downstairs, Ma Jinshan and Xie Ke quickly went downstairs.
"Brother, you're awake!"
Ma Jinshan's hearty greetings came from behind.
Ye Anran turned around and saw Ma Jinshan and Xie Ke, saluting them.
"Brother, Chief of Staff."
Ma Jinshan was dressed in military uniform and looked majestic. He saluted Ye Anran and said, "I'm here to report my work to you."
"Brother, you..."
Ye Anran was embarrassed. He kept doing this and felt like he was being teased.
"I have started digging traffic trenches in Hecheng as per your request."
"Recruitment posts for military workers have also been posted, recruitment positions are in full swing, and the communication troops sent out to recruit laborers in various villages have also set off."
Ye Anran breathed a sigh of relief. After thinking for a few seconds, he asked, "So, how about the military uniforms and military shoes?"
Ma Jinshan was stunned for a moment, and he and Xie Ke looked at each other.
Then he looked back at Ye Anran, "Brother Ye, you don't need military uniforms and military shoes, right?"
"I'll call the logistics immediately. We won the battle, but if he doesn't give us guns, it won't be a problem if he gives us tens of thousands of clothes and shoes, right?"
"Okay, big brother, just look at the arrangements."
Ye Anran didn't want to argue with Ma Jinshan over clothes.
He still has a lot to do.
He Ma Jinhai said goodbye to Ma Jinshan and Xie Ke, and Ye Anran returned to the Shadow Regiment and learned from the sentry that except for the first, second and third battalions at the recruitment post, everyone else was digging communication trenches.
He left the Shadow Regiment Headquarters and went to the Crane City Arsenal with Ma Jinhai.
As soon as he walked out of the regiment headquarters, a beautiful figure stopped in front of Ye Anran. It was Xia Qiancheng.
She opened her arms to block Ye Anran's path.
Ye Anran jumped off the horse, walked up to Xia Qiancheng, and asked, knowingly: "Are you okay?"
Xia Qiancheng: "Where is my camera?"
Ye Anran looked back at Ma Jinhai.
Ma Jinhai touched his pocket and saw that he didn't have it with him. He quickly jumped off the horse and said, "I'll get it, you guys go ahead!"
After he finished speaking, he disappeared quickly.
Ye Anran felt that Ma Jinhai did it on purpose, otherwise why not let him wait in the shadow group?
But it's okay, Ye Anran's stay in the military camp was a bit boring. At this time, communicating with the beautiful reporter was like drinking tea or a cup of coffee.
"Let's move forward."
"Um."
Xia Qiancheng walked beside Ye Anran with her hands behind her back.
She was particularly disappointed yesterday because she finally managed to capture frontal photos of those heroes who fought bloody battles.
For her as a journalist, there were not many opportunities to document the army's triumphant return.
She is not a war reporter and cannot see the cruelty on the front line.
Xia Qiancheng pursed her lips and said, "I'm sorry, Vice Chairman Ye."
She blinked, feeling a little panicked.
"I shouldn't have taken photos of the march yesterday. After I got back, President Wang told me that the army had issued a notice."
"At first, I didn't know!"
Ye Anran touched his pocket, took out yesterday's film and handed it over, "Hecheng is now ambushed from all sides. I have to do some work. I hope you can understand."
Xia Qiancheng took the film and was as happy as a child, "Thank you, Vice Chairman Ye, I will always treasure this film!"
…
"By the way, is there anything I can do for you?"
"I also want to do something for Crane City."
Xia Qiancheng looked at Ye Anran very seriously.
Ye Anran pondered for a long time, thinking that there were indeed some things that were difficult to deal with.
Xia Qiancheng is a girl and a reporter.
She is a girl who can speak well.
Since she is motivated to serve the motherland, Ye Anran is not polite, "The army is currently recruiting soldiers, and many people don't even have a pair of decent shoes at home."
"My children have become soldiers and need new military uniforms and new military shoes. I hope you can help us contact local women to help sew military uniforms and military shoes!"
"We purchase the fabrics and soles of military uniforms."
"Let the common people calculate how much it would cost to sew a set of military uniforms for a pair of shoes, and we will pay them."
"good!"
Xia Qiancheng agreed without hesitation.
"Vice Chairman Ye, please rest assured and promise to complete the task."
She imitated the appearance of a soldier, stood still, and saluted Ye Anran with a military salute.
Ye Anran smiled slightly, good guy, those eggs were smashed on his head in vain.
If the military uniform and military shoes are taken care of, Ye Anran will have no worries.
Currently, the whole country is at war with the devils.
All the troops were basically short of food and clothing.
Under such circumstances, almost the entire theater's troops and logistical strategic supplies were in short supply.
Now that the cold winter has just passed, it is the season for soldiers to change their uniforms.
Logistics support should not be able to protect frontline strategic reserve materials.
Ma Jinhai got the camera and walked slower than a snail.
If Ye Anran hadn't found out and yelled at him, he would have spent a whole day with the moving ants on the ground!
Second brother...does it need to be so obvious? He is not in love with Xia Qiancheng!
Xia Qiancheng got the camera, said thank you with a peach-like face and left.
Ma Jinhai smiled, "Third brother, what do you think of that girl?"
"pretty good!"
Ye Anran replied to him.
"How about tying her up and making her your wife?"
"..."
Ye Anran had a dark look on his face, and he pushed Ma Jinhai, "Second brother, are you confused? What about Mrs. Yazhai, are you a bandit or am I a bandit?"
"Hahaha, brother, I was wrong!"
Hecheng provincial capital.
Ma Jinshan called the logistics support team, hoping to get some military quilts, uniforms, and other strategic supplies.
