After the troops of more than 10,000 people watched it once, everyone's tolerance increased a lot.
At the same time, he also realized the cruelty of war.
Especially the local soldiers, most of them were vomiting. No one could remain indifferent to the scene after the large-caliber cannon plowed the ground.
It was not until almost midnight that Nie Li ordered the battlefield to be cleaned. At the same time, Nie Li began to order the battlefield to be cleaned.
The soldiers endured the pain, and most of them couldn't use their guns or other weapons on their stumps.
In particular, they were just a supply unit responsible for collecting grain and carrying out the countryside clearing movement, and their weapons and equipment were not adequate at all.
In fact, even if Nie Li let the troops touch it directly, there would be no loss.
After all, there is no comparison between a well-trained army and an army led by a second-generation ancestor.
However, there was still a harvest. A lot of food, drinks and other supplies were collected during the war. Nie Li had people take these things back to the vicinity of Zhangjiacun.
At the same time, the first mixed brigade and brigade commander Zhao Hu were left behind.
Stationed in Nianpangou.
Build fortifications here and prepare to use Nianpangou as a base to slowly expand outward.
Because of the geographical location of Nianpangou, it was very suitable for defense. If Nie Li's troops were not too elite, they would still be able to fight.
Zhao Hu dispersed a brigade of more than 7,000 people in accordance with the training outline and war regulations.
Constructed on the road, machine gun positions, trenches.
There are also artillery positions.
Behind Nianpangou, Nie Li first spent 300,000 yuan to build a training base. This was the source of soldiers and must be built first.
Then, a third-level blacksmith shop was built here.
Carry out the production of weapons and equipment.
These two are enough to run a small base.
Three thousand more soldiers were recruited.
Train first and serve as the backbone to prepare for future military expansion.
Nie Li took the security guards and the looted food to the vicinity of Zhangjiacun.
When they arrived near Zhangjiacun, Zhang Cai, who was leading the way, excitedly said to Nie Li: "Commander, do we really want to distribute the food we grabbed this time to the villagers?"
The title has been changed. Seeing the strength of Nie Li's troops, Zhang Cai joined Nie Li's troops.
Now he has become a glorious security guard of the security division.
Nie Li smiled slightly, "Of course, they took these from the villagers. We are not the old warlord's army. Isn't it right to return the food to the villagers?"
Zhang Cai said excitedly: "Commander, you are the most loyal and open-minded person I have ever seen."
"I am determined to follow you for the rest of my life."
Nie Li waved his hand: "Stop flattering me, I'll ask the third company commander to follow you. You start from Zhangjiacun and lead them to distribute food to the people. Be careful on the way, don't be ambushed by the Japanese."
Zhang Cai said with a proud face: "Don't worry, Commander, I will take my brothers on the small road and I will never encounter any Japanese, whether they are red-haired Japanese or short-legged Japanese. We are the only ones in this land." Sitting on the ground cannon.”
Nie Li nodded, knowing that Zhang Cai was right.
If there are no locals to lead the way in these deep mountains and old forests, how can you just look at the map? It can take you around to the Palace of Hell.
"Okay, let's go to work. I'll deliver it myself here in Zhangjiacun!"
When the troops arrived in Zhangjia Village, the village chief gathered the villagers in the village's drying yard in accordance with past rules.
He looked at the troops honestly.
His face was crumpled with laughter.
"Sir, everyone is here, do you think?"
Nie Li took a look at the 1,800 people in the drying yard. Zhangjiacun was indeed a big village.
Standing on the roller, Nie Li shouted loudly: "Folks, we are troops from Shendu, and we are here to fight the Japanese! I heard that some short-legged Japanese sent people here some time ago. Harvest grain and collect all our grain."
"Is there such a thing?"
The people below didn't dare to talk to him at all.
"After hearing about this, I led my people to snatch the food back. Let's share the food today! The village chief should know how much everyone has been robbed, right?"
What a joke, he was leading the way at that time, how could he not know this?
Nie Li's smile frightened the village chief, and he quickly said: "I know, I know!"
After Nie Li finished speaking, the villagers below started to murmur.
"Distributing food to us? I've only seen people grabbing food."
"Then the food is laid out at the back. You can't lie to us, right?"
Someone suddenly had the courage to say loudly: "Commander Nie, do you really want to share the food with us? What do we have to pay?"
Nie Li smiled when he heard this and said, "It's really divided. You don't have to pay anything."
"We are soldiers. We eat food as soldiers and are supported by the government's troops. What conditions do we need to help ordinary people vent their anger?"
Although the government only gave Nie Li one division and one brigade, Yuan, the old man with money and food, never treated Nie Li badly.
They are all given in sufficient quantities.
In other words, the taxes collected by the national government support local troops like Nie Li. It seems that it is natural for local troops to contribute to the local area.
However, things cannot be settled that way.
You can't say that.
After three hundred years of enslavement education, soldiers no longer know why they fight.
The general only wants to make money and grab territory. The interests of the people and the country have long been ignored.
"Village chief, please divide it among everyone according to the number. My soldiers are responsible for maintaining order." Nie Li's words just now had some impact on these people.
Although they didn't quite understand it, they felt that it was really good to have such a soldier to protect them.
It's better than those who run away when they see the devil, right?
Everyone had their own ideas and divided the food.
Some young boys suddenly had the courage to ask: "Commander Nie, are you still short of men in your army?"
Nie Li laughed when he heard this: "No, how can the army not be short of people, but we only lack people who know why we are fighting! There is no shortage of ignorant people!"
What Nie Li said was a bit profound.
The young people looked at each other and shook their heads, "Do you understand what Marshal Nie said?"
"No! What do you mean!"
Nie Li shook his head helplessly.
"When you know why you are fighting, let's talk about joining the army. Before you think about it, just farm at home honestly."
In fact, Nie Li can be re-educated, but he is not in a hurry to recruit troops now. It is not the right time.
The people were surprised. Are there still people who don’t want to fight?
Don’t warlords all rob people?
The arrival of Nie Li's troops brought a bit of vitality to Zhangjiacun.
Nie Li also took a break at Zhang Cai's house, while soldiers outside set up camp at the foot of Hengshan Mountain next to Zhangjia Village.
After the food is distributed, these people will go back to Nianpangou.
But on the way Zhang Cai took the third company commander to the surrounding villages, Weizigou, Liujiacun and other villages to distribute grain, an accident happened.
