There are various signs that it may be related to the Japanese prison plan.
Xu San knew a little bit about the prison plan. When he was watching "Bright Sword" and the word came out of Shinozuka Yoshio's mouth, he specifically asked Du Niang.
The so-called cage plan means that they used railways as pillars, highways as chains, and strongholds as locks, in an attempt to build a cage that could imprison the anti-Japanese soldiers and civilians.
In this strategy, roads play an important role.
The specific method is to first gather heavy troops to capture part of the base area, and then arrest people to build roads.
After the road was built, the enemy dug blockade ditches on both sides of the road and built strongholds and gun towers every two to three kilometers along the road.
In this way, in addition to supporting each other with firepower, various strongholds and gun towers also dispatched cavalry, motorcycle troops, etc. to patrol day and night to shoot and kill all suspicious targets.
Later, the cage temporarily worked.
Many base areas, especially plain base areas, are cut into many small pieces in the shape of a king, a field, or a rice by roads, greatly reducing the space for troop activities.
Xu San calculated in his mind that the distance between the strongholds is still less than two or three kilometers, which means that the cage plan is still in its early stages. And this time the Japanese changed the uniforms of some of the puppet troops, it is very likely that they are going to accelerate this plan.
This information must be sent out as soon as possible!
After sending away a few puppet troops, Xu San immediately got into the warehouse and began to organize intelligence and write analysis reports again.
This time it was more difficult than last time.
Because this time it has risen to a strategic level.
Xu San's abilities are limited, and his knowledge is limited to TV series and Du Niang, and these things are not available anymore.
But fortunately, the history is there, and it is okay to write the results directly without writing the process. As for the final decision, that is not something he can control.
In the afternoon, Xu San continued to go out for a walk.
The flow of people on the street had significantly decreased at this time. When I walked to Yuelai Inn, I found that it was closed.
It seems that underground workers also have to take annual leave, or are they also going out to pay New Year greetings?
On the second day of junior high school, Ma Cuilan and her mother came over early to help Xu San clean up the greenhouse, loosen the soil and water it.
Xu San watched from the side and learned humbly.
The vegetable patch was not big, and it was finished in a short time, but the little girl stayed in it and couldn't come out.
Because it is warm inside, there are stoves and flues to assist in heating.
According to custom, today should be the day when Ma Cuilan takes the little girl back to her mother's house. Seeing that Ma Cuilan has not left yet, Xu San asked: "Sister-in-law, aren't you going to your mother's house today?"
"I won't go back. I am a widow. When I go back, I will be looked down upon by others, and Xiao Meizi will be bullied as well." Ma Cuilan said lightly, her tone was neither humble nor arrogant, but there was a hint of sadness deep in her eyes.
Xu San could probably understand what Ma Cuilan was thinking. After all, she had been raising the child alone for two or three years, and with her hard work in the past two or three years, she should be able to save a lot of money.
Maybe.....
Is she afraid that her poor relatives will be concerned about her money?
After being influenced by the Internet in later generations, Xu San can naturally come up with many such bloody plots.
Looking at the orphan and widowed mother, Xu San decided to stay here for a meal today, "Today happens to be the second day of the new year. Sister-in-law, when you come to my place, you are going back to your parents' house! You can stay here for a meal at noon."
Ma Cuilan's heart felt a little warm. What happened to her was just as Xu San thought. There was indeed a brother in her parents' family who was concerned about her little savings, and her father also had the idea of helping his son.
In these days, sons are valued over daughters, and women are like water thrown away. It would be okay if the husband is here, but if the husband is gone, she, a woman with children, will inevitably be bullied, so she can't avoid this natal family.
She has not returned to her parents' home for two years. Today, she heard Xu San's words, which made her feel at home inexplicably: "Okay, I will listen to my brother's arrangements today. I am satisfied to have a brother like you."
"I need to ask my sister-in-law for help with one thing?" Xu San said.
"Brother, just tell me if you have something to say."
Next, Xu San was not polite and directly dictated what the ninja uniforms looked like, planning to ask Ma Cuilan to help him make two sets.
Ma Cuilan listened silently and carefully wrote down Xu San's needs: "It's not difficult. I have some dirty materials in my shop and can finish it in one day."
"No rush, no rush, it's the Chinese New Year now, we need to have a good rest, eat when it's time, play when it's time, it's not too late to wait until the fifth day of the Lunar New Year."
After talking about the clothes, Xu San looked at the little girl with empty hands and no toys, and suddenly thought of a business that might be able to make a little money.
After thinking about it for a while, he said: "Sister-in-law, I have a small business that might make some money."
"Since you can make money, let's talk about it. Do you need help from my sister-in-law for this business?" Ma Cuilan said with a smile.
Then, Xu San expressed his idea of a plush toy for future generations.
Of course, it was impossible in this era to make the kind of stuffed toys that would be seen in later generations, nor could they be stuffed with cotton.
Xu San's conception can be regarded as echoing the characteristics of the times.
The shape was designed by him, the shell was hand-sewn by Ma Cuilan, and the fillings were chaff, wheat husks and a few rags. As for the down, Xu San chose to give up directly.
After hearing this, Ma Cuilan frowned slightly and expressed her worries, "Your idea is quite good, but it may not be easy to sell in our Ping An City."
"Sister-in-law, you don't know this. Women and children earn the most money in this world. This stuffed toy makes money from women and children."
Ma Cuilan has never seen those cute stuffed toys from later generations. She can only think of those little tiger and little lion pillows sold in the market, so she is not very optimistic about this thing, but she doesn't want to refute it. Xu San wanted to save face, so he agreed to help make a few.
The little girl is very lively. At this moment, he is going in and out of the greenhouse, feeling the novel feeling brought by the alternation of hot and cold.
Seeing this, Xu San thought about shouting stop, because this alternation of hot and cold is too easy to catch a cold.
But Ma Cuilan, who was next to him, scolded him ahead of him: "Be honest and don't always lift the curtain. The vegetable seedlings inside will freeze to death after a while."
"Oh~"
The little girl was obedient and closed the curtain. She pouted and came to her mother with an unwilling expression on her face: "Did Uncle Xu San want us to have dinner at his house just now?"
Ma Cuilan saw the little girl's greedy face and couldn't help but stretched out her finger and tapped her forehead gently: "You know how to eat! Why can't you remember other things I said?"
The little girl chuckled, not caring about her mother's reproach this time. Instead, she ran to Xu San, grabbed his arm and raised her head: "Uncle Xu, Mom said that the dumplings on the first day of the new year and the noodles on the second day of the new year will be eaten today. Is that noodle good?"
