Chapter 232 Build a high wall and accumulate grain

Just like when he came back from Jinling the previous time, Hu Biao, who had just returned to the mountain from Shanghai, also inspected the wounded barracks for the first time. Knowing that Hu Biao brought back a large amount of medicine, many wounded people who were worried about the lack of medicine could finally recuperate with peace of mind.

Originally, in the eyes of these wounded, the medicine they consumed every day was very expensive. In such an era of human life, few officers were willing to treat seriously wounded men like them with expensive medicines.

In the opinion of many officers, there were enough medicines to consume for them to recruit a few more able-bodied young men. Although it is difficult to recruit soldiers in these years, if you are really willing to spend money, you are still not afraid of not being able to recruit soldiers.

Many of the seriously injured who were left behind on the way to break through are difficult to recover to the state they were in before the injury, even after they have recovered from their injuries. Although amputations are rare, many seriously injured people find it difficult to stay in the army even if they recover.

It stands to reason that these wounded are basically useless, and wasting precious medicine on them does seem to be a bit more than worth the loss. But in Hu Biao's view, compared to human life, how much is medicine worth?

At least there is one thing that Hu Biao can firmly believe, that is, through this incident, his prestige in the Snow Shame Camp will be improved again. The officers and men of the other Snow Shame Battalion will also feel that they do not have to worry about being injured on the battlefield and being abandoned by the troops.

When leaving the wounded barracks, looking at Lin Yashi who was following him, and other officers and soldiers who intended to stay away, Hu Biao couldn't help but speak, and asked, "Miss Lin, have you been in contact with your brother recently?" During this time, I have worked hard for you. ”

"It's okay! I'm just doing what I can! There is not much contact, he seems to have been the chief of staff of the regiment, and he seems to have been busy lately. Although he didn't say it, I still think that he should go to the front again. ”

When it comes to her eldest brother, Lin Yashi still seems a little worried. Even if she knows that her eldest brother has become the chief of staff of the lieutenant colonel, but she is really going to the battlefield, who dares to guarantee that there will be no accidents?

Looking at Lin Yashi with a sad face, Hu Biao could only smile and comfort: "As a soldier, there is no way to go to the battlefield." As Chief of Staff, he's more often in the Command, so you don't have to worry too much. ”

"Yes! Listen to Dr. Wang, they said, you also want to go to the front line after the New Year, right? ”

Looking at the girl's concerned expression, Hu Biao nodded without concealment: "Not bad!" Although we are in the occupied area, as a soldier of the Anti-Japanese War, I still prefer to go to the front line. There are many devils on the front line, so don't worry about not fighting! ”

"Can you take me with you, then? I don't want to stay here, I also want to go to the front line to fight devils! ”

Listening to what Lin Yashi said, Hu Biao could only smile bitterly: "Isn't it good to stay in the mountains?" If you go to the front, it is very tiring and hard, not to mention very dangerous. You should know that even if I go to the front, there is no guarantee that I will come back alive. ”

"I'm not afraid of hardship, tiredness, or danger, I just want to avenge my parents in person one day. I want to be a soldier, I want to go to the front line to fight devils like you. Do you think I'm a woman, so you won't take me? ”

Facing the girl's somewhat stubborn eyes, Hu Biao thought for a while and said: "After the year, I will take the spy company to the front line, and this time I will have a long way to go." Along the way, I'm afraid that there will be battles from time to time. If you want to go, you have to be prepared.

For me, I don't look down on you as a woman, on the contrary, I admire you for your courage. But sometimes, courage alone is not enough to kill little devils. If you don't have enough strength, you can't kill the little devil, but you will die in vain.

So be it! Starting tomorrow, you will report to the communications platoon of the battalion headquarters and learn to receive telegrams from Lieutenant Zhao Xian. In addition, strengthen physical exercise, and if you want to go to the front, you must at least have enough physical strength. In addition, there is time, I will teach you to shoot a gun! ”

"Good! That's it, you can't talk and don't count! ”

Regarding Hu Biao's answer, Lin Yashi seemed to be a little overjoyed. After saying this, she felt a little embarrassed, and Lin Yashi, who was blushing, left quickly. During Hu Biao's absence, Lin Yashi also heard a lot of gossip.

But Lin Yashi had to promise that the speculation and gossip of the soldiers in the battalion were not disgusted and she never refuted them. On the contrary, it is a pity that Hu Biao respects her very much and does not show any signs of admiration.

On the contrary, she is already in love with Hu Biao. If it weren't for the girl's reserve, I'm afraid that Lin Yashi would also want to show her heart to Hu Biao. For Lin Yashi at this moment, perhaps the place where Hu Biao is there is is the safest place she thinks!

Looking at Lin Yashi, who left with a shy face, Hu Biao, who stayed in place, looked a little helpless. Originally, according to his meaning, he wanted to leave Lin Yashi in the mountains, and didn't want him to go to the front line to take risks. But before, he really couldn't say no.

After reacting, Hu Biao also said helplessly: "When did I become so hesitant?" ”

When he realized that his mentality towards Lin Yashi had changed, Hu Biao didn't want to continue thinking about these things. Originally, according to Hu Biao's intentions, he hoped to leave Lin Yashi behind, and then recruited some young girls from the local area to serve as hospital nurses.

Now it seems that this idea must be postponed. In these years, who would dare to stay in a group of young and strong troops from ordinary people's families? Many people attach great importance to this kind of thing.

After dinner, Hu Biao quickly convened a meeting of the company commanders of the battalion headquarters. Thinking of the cigarettes he bought from Shanghai, Hu Biao pretended to go back to his bedroom, then took out two cigarettes from the storage space and threw them to the greedy company commanders.

smiled and said: "It's rare to go out, and I don't know what you like, these two cigarettes are divided into two packs per person, which is a gift!" ”

"Thank you, battalion commander!"

Staying in the mountains, supplies are still relatively poor. Even if there is a company commander who doesn't smoke, they won't miss such a cigarette picked up for nothing. If you don't smoke it yourself, you can save it and exchange things with other company commanders. No one can have too many cigarettes.

Before the meeting, Hu Biao first listened to the work reports of each company, and then said: "There are two days left for the New Year, this is the first year that our Snow Shame Camp has spent in the mountains, and we should also have a good time." On the logistics company's side, prepare a little more supplies and meals. ”

Hearing that Zhao Bing, the logistics company commander who wanted to add food, he smiled a little bitterly: "Battalion commander, there is no problem with food, but there is not much meat!" During this time, I have sent people into the mountains to hunt, but the harvest is not large. When I go out to buy, I don't have much meat to buy. ”

It was winter, and the logistics company often sent people to hunt in the mountains, so the prey was reduced, and the meat consumption naturally decreased. For many officers and soldiers, eating extra meals is actually eating meat. If you don't have meat to eat, what is that extra meal?

Regarding what Zhao Bing said, Hu Biao thought for a while and said, "I'll do this!" Tomorrow and the next two days, I will take people to inspect the first and second companies to see what is going on on over there. When I have time, I'll find a way to get some meat back. ”

"Yes, Battalion Commander!"

"On the night of the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, all the officers and squad leaders in the whole battalion, including me, arranged for the soldiers to sleep well. They are all standing guard and we will rest, let them rest for 30 nights, we will stand guard for them, no problem, right? ”

"No problem!"

The company commanders, who knew that Hu Biao loved soldiers like sons, how could they refute Hu Biao's opinion? What's more, this kind of duty arrangement can also deepen their relationship with the fighters. Gaining the trust of the fighters will also help them lead the troops in the future.

Thinking of the establishment of the rear hospital, Hu Biao quickly said: "The sixth company and the seventh company will be relocated to the rear hospital after the year. On the side of the logistics company, a batch of materials was transferred in advance. After the year, each company must also be prepared for war.

Considering that the little devils are currently strengthening material control, our main task after the year is to build a high wall and accumulate grain. First of all, we should firmly build the base area and store more materials in case of emergency. Don't be too anxious about fighting little devils for the time being. ”

Regarding Hu Biao's arrangement, Xu Mingzhi quickly said: "Battalion commander, if we don't fight the little devils, how can we raise supplies?" ”

"Suppress the bandits first, and then wipe out the bandits around us. In particular, the bandit ranks that are so angry with the people must be resolutely eliminated and suppressed. Secondly, crack down on those local tyrants and inferior gentry, and let them know the consequences of taking refuge in the little devils.

There is only one thing that must be remembered, that is, innocents cannot be killed indiscriminately, and some landlords and squires are still worth wooing. After the New Year, I will transfer personnel from each company to form our intelligence team and deploy it to the surrounding cities.

The head of the intelligence team of the Snow Shame Battalion will be Captain Liu Shixing. Captain Liu, during this time, you should familiarize yourself with the situation first, and after the next year, you are afraid that you will have to work hard and select people to form our intelligence group. Money and people, I will try my best to support! ”

"Thank you, battalion commander! I'll try! ”

Liu Shixing, who left Shanghai with Hu Biao, did not know that Hu Biao was the commander of the Jinling Dead Soldiers Camp until he entered the Anhua Mountain Snow Shame Camp. And Hu Biao also has a force of more than 1,000 people, which really surprised him.

As an intelligence officer stationed in Shanghai by the military commander, Liu Shixing is well aware of the reputation and prestige of the Dead Soldiers Battalion in China. Even if the Dead Soldier Battalion has become history, but Hu Biao, the battalion commander, is here, and he believes that the Dead Soldier Battalion will be formed sooner or later.

At present, in this snow shame camp, Liu Shixing can also feel how high Hu Biao's prestige is here. No wonder on the way here, Hu Biao told him not to worry about the inquiries of the military commanders. With Hu Biao to protect him, the military commander didn't dare to do anything to him.

As soon as he came to the Snow Shame Camp, he was appointed as the chief intelligence officer, and Liu Shixing was still very moved. With this identity, Liu Shixing's status in the Snow Shame Camp in the future will not be too low, and he is also known as Hu Biao's henchman.

Although it was unfortunate why Hu Biao wanted to set up his own intelligence group, Liu Shixing could guess that Hu Biao and the military commander did not have a subordinate relationship, but on the contrary, it was a cooperative relationship. Although this Snow Shame Battalion is an anti-Japanese armed force, it does not belong to the combat sequence of the national army.

If Hu Biao can make a name for himself in the future, the Snow Shame Camp can also develop rapidly behind enemy lines. In time, Hu Biao's promotion to general should not be a problem. As Hu Biao's descendants, the future of these people will not be too bad!
