Chapter 315 Ambush at Black Cloud Village
Chapter 315 Ambush at Black Cloud Village
Ping'an County.
Deputy Captain Xing spent several days clearing the ruins of Ping'an County and filling in all the bumpy roads around the county. Except for the collapsed city gate tower which remained in place, the county was actually full of vitality from the inside out.
Originally, according to Yu Ye's idea, the city gate tower should not be repaired and should be demolished directly. Except for some city walls of ancient capitals that still have preservation value, other city gate towers are vulnerable to the destruction of modern weapons, so there is no need to keep them.
However, Deputy Captain Xing strongly recommended that they stay. After all, with the Japanese firepower, it would take some effort to attack the city wall.
Deputy Head Xing asked a young man beside him, "Siwei, is your teacher confident in sending you to us? Your teacher values you young people very much. If anyone gets hurt, he will be furious.
Fortunately, Yamamoto Ikki only blew up our arsenal this time. If any of you were injured, I think Minister Yu would have led his men to the Japanese mainland and dug up the graves of Yamamoto Ikki's ancestors and scattered their ashes."
The young man smiled and did not refute what Deputy Captain Xing said. After spending some time together, he had already understood his teacher's character thoroughly. If a dozen of his men really died on the spot, what Deputy Captain Xing said as a joke would definitely come true.
"Captain Xing, was this batch of goods delivered by our comrades from the transport team?"
Gu Siwei changed the subject and asked.
"Yes, isn't it that Minister Yu plans to hold an arms exhibition in Ping'an County in a dozen days? He means that we can't just display some arms or something, but also various light industrial products. Let everyone see it, which can also be regarded as an opportunity for publicity."
Deputy Head Xing explained.
"There should be a lot of cotton yarn shipped over this time, right?"
"Yes, according to Minister Yu's request, in addition to our daily use, we also took out all the cotton yarn in stock and tried to sell it all this time. Sister Xiuqin has been working overtime with the workers in the cotton mill recently."
"It's still you, teacher. Now the cotton mill has resumed production. We collect cotton from the base, process it into cotton yarn and sell it. The people in our base have benefited a lot.
The enthusiasm for production is very high now. I heard villagers say before that the price of cotton seeds has increased a lot. "
Gu Siwei took out the small notebook he carried with him and wrote down the matters concerning the promotion of cotton yarn.
As he wrote, he sighed with emotion that the teacher's idea of directly connecting raw materials to finished products has united everyone in the base. Those who need to farm farm and those who need to work work. No resources are wasted, and no manpower is wasted. It can be said that the integration of the entire place has reached a very high level.
With our consistent land policy as the foundation and light industry helping everyone realize their aspirations for a better life, this two-pronged approach can be said to be invincible.
"Alas, it has to be a teacher."
Gu Siwei sighed again in his heart.
"Siwei, I heard from the minister that all purchases at this arms exhibition must be made with border area tickets?" asked Deputy Regiment Leader Xing.
"Yes, Captain Xing. According to the teacher's request, this time we need to raise the popularity of our border area tickets and let everyone recognize our border area tickets.
The teacher said it very clearly, our credit is the corresponding value of the border area ticket.
When one day both the Nationalist Army and the Japanese use our border area tickets, we will have succeeded."
Gu Siwei explained to Deputy Headmaster Xing.
"what?"
Deputy Head Xing exclaimed in surprise. He couldn't imagine how exciting that day would be.
"Captain Xing, according to the transport team's itinerary, they should have arrived by now, right?" Gu Siwei suddenly thought of something.
"Yeah, could it be that their car broke down? That's impossible, I'd better send someone over to take a look."
Deputy Captain Xing has always been prudent in his work. To be on the safe side, he arranged for Zhang Dabiao to send a platoon to see what the situation was, so that timely support could be provided in case any problems were encountered.
Deputy Captain Xing was also a little worried. After the battle in Ping'an County, Ping'an County had completely made a name for itself. There were almost no Japanese invaders in the area within a hundred kilometers. The transport team should not have encountered the Japanese invaders.
......
At the foot of Heiyun Village.
Xie Baoqing led more than a hundred brothers from the mountain stronghold to ambush at the foot of the mountain. They did not have any major battle plan. They just punched in as usual at work, but the card he punched in was called "robbery."
"Boss, our brothers at the mountain pass ahead reported that more than a dozen truckloads of supplies passed in front of us. Do you want to take them down?"
Shanmaozi ran to Xie Baoqing and reported the current situation to him.
"More than a dozen truckloads of supplies? Whose supplies?"
Xie Baoqing was also surprised to hear the news. He never expected to encounter such a good opportunity. In the past, he was lucky enough to meet one or two passing merchants and get some money.
"From the Eighth Route Army."
"Eight...Eighth Route Army..."
Xie Baoqing originally had a stutter, and after hearing Shanmaozi's news, he was so shocked that he spoke even more incoherently.
"You...you are crazy...you are robbing the Eighth Route Army too?"
Xie Baoqing was a little anxious. According to the rules he had set before, he should not steal the Eighth Route Army's things unless it was absolutely necessary. Even stealing the devil's things was more practical than stealing the Eighth Route Army's things.
The people in Heiyun Village are not the kind of people who abide by the rules and uphold morality. The main reason is that in their general impression, the Eighth Route Army is too poor. Even if they rob them, they won't be able to get anything good. Moreover, these people are very vindictive and will never stop settling accounts with them. The cost and benefits are simply not proportional.
Xie Baoqing usually robbed the puppet army, the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army, and the miscellaneous troops of the Central Army. Once he succeeded, he would hide in the mountain stronghold, and these people could not do anything to him. As for some of the elite troops of the National Army, they would not move unless they were extremely hungry.
So, when Shanmaozi told Xie Baoqing that he wanted to rob the Eighth Route Army, Xie Baoqing was still a little hesitant.
"Brother, times have changed. The Eighth Route Army is not as poor as you thought before. The vehicles are now carrying cotton yarn. This trip will provide our brothers in the mountain village with clothes for the winter. We can spend the New Year in warmth and comfort." Shanmaozi coaxed Xie Baoqing in his ear.
"But...but...the independent regiment's current combat effectiveness...is very strong, we...can't defeat them." There were obvious doubts in Xie Baoqing's eyes.
"Brother, who said we were going to fight? If we seize this batch of cotton yarn, we can sell it right away, except for our own. I heard that the veils of the independent group are in short supply.
We will move with our brothers immediately and go out to have fun. We won’t have to live this hungry life for a long time.”
Xie Baoqing was obviously moved by Shanmaozi's words. Looking at the truck on the mountain road in the distance, he had some thoughts in his mind.
