In the past few days of resting in Yicheng, Hu Biao rarely had time to calm down and think about some things about the future of the team. After this trip to the north, Hu Biao felt more and more the importance of strength. If the spy company wants to expand, the team must also expand.

According to Hu Biao's instructions, the Xuesha Camp, which is still staying in Anhua Mountain, has expanded two guerrilla base areas. The 3rd and 4th companies, which had stayed in the mountains earlier, had now left and gone to the surrounding county towns to establish guerrilla zones behind enemy lines.

The four combat companies that left, according to Hu Biao's development instructions, basically surrounded and suppressed the bandits in the area under their jurisdiction. The two guerrilla units formed a few years ago have now mostly developed into three or four fortress villages and formed militia units.

According to Hu Biao's instructions, the follow-up Snow Shame Battalion will also carry out the work of recruiting and expanding. In the early stage, Hu Biao planned to expand a recruit company. Men between the ages of 17 and 25 must be innocent peasant children.

The recruits recruited by the guerrillas will be sent to Anhua Hill for a two-month intensive training of recruits. Young people who are levied will be given a settling-in allowance of 10 yuan to their families before enlistment, and they will receive a monthly allowance of 2 yuan for the duration of the recruitment.

This treatment is still very attractive to many young people from ordinary people's families. Most importantly, these young people are locals. In the future, the military salaries they receive can be sent home to supplement their families.

When they entered the army, they were responsible for food, clothing, housing, and transportation, and they didn't spend money on the land for these people to stay in the army. The recruitment of these recruits is also to expand the influence of the Snow Shame Camp in the local area, so that more people can unite around the Snow Shame Camp.

But for Hu Biao, he needs veterans with real combat experience, and after training, he can become a real elite. At this stage, Hu Biao felt that the scale of the spy company was a little small, and he planned to expand the spy company into a reconnaissance battalion.

In that case, next time he brings troops out to fight, Hu Biao can also fight some small-scale ambushes and frontal offensive battles. If you want to seize some small counties, you don't need the cooperation of other anti-Japanese war troops at all, and Hu Biao can take them down with a reconnaissance battalion.

From the expanded reconnaissance battalions, the elites who truly possess the qualities of special forces will be selected. At least at this stage, except for a few outstanding soldiers, most of the fighters are only a little higher in quality than ordinary veterans.

After leaving Yicheng this time, Hu Biao decided to rescue some prisoners of war who were imprisoned in the Japanese army's mining factory through the information provided by the military commanders. There is the example of the Snow Shame Camp, and Hu Biao feels that those prisoners of war who have suffered are more conducive to his subjugation and use for his own use.

On the second day after Hu Biao left Yicheng, Japanese fighters flew over Yicheng again and launched a new round of bombardment against the city that had been recaptured by the anti-Japanese war forces, and then the Japanese army launched another attack under the cover of artillery.

Still the same as before, the anti-Japanese troops stationed in Yicheng did not last long before they began to retreat. The Japanese troops stationed in Yicheng soon took over the bombed city. And this time, the Japanese still sent a wing to garrison it.

After receiving a telegram from the front line, Pang Bingxun, who was already resting in the rear, couldn't help but rejoice: "Fortunately, Lao Tzu ran fast!" If I stay there, I will really be reimbursed for all this little belongings I have left! ”

Through this incident, Pang Bingxun felt more and more that it was indeed a very rare good thing to deal with Hu Biao. The medicines that he traded with Hu Biao earlier also attracted many young officers for Pang Bingxun.

These officers who were wounded on the battlefield were sent to the rear hospitals for treatment, and they all faced the dilemma of not having special medicine to treat them. The army needs to be expanded, and Pang Bingxun also needs a large number of experienced grassroots officers, and these medicines undoubtedly give Pang Bingxun the best capital to solicit.

As Hu Biao said earlier, a box of medicine can become a life-saving capital at some point. Taking out these medicines to help his wounded officers, Pang Bingxun's prestige in the rear hospital has undoubtedly been unprecedentedly enhanced.

Only those wounded officers who were successfully saved with medicine would be desperate for Pang Bingxun. Even the wounded officers of other units, when they heard the news, were very envious of the wounded grassroots officers of the 40th Army, and felt that they were following the right people.

Pang Bingxun, who had made a lot of profits, did not forget to send a telegram of repeated thanks to Hu Biao, and at the same time expressed his hope to purchase a batch of medicines as soon as possible. If Hu Biao doesn't have time, as long as he says a place, Pang Bingxun will personally send someone to deliver money and get medicine.

Hu Biao, who was on the way to the war, looked at the telegram sent by Pang Bingxun and said with a smile: "How is it?" As I told you, our medicines don't sell at all. Especially where the war starts, a box of special medicine can become a life-saving medicine.

Call back to General Pang and inform us that our unit is currently on the way to war. Regarding the purchase of medicines, let him wait a little longer. In addition, he sent a telegram to Dai Juzuo, asking him if he was interested in the drug business! ”

Listening to Hu Biao's words, Qin Tianyou said with a smile: "This kind of life-saving business, I don't think anyone will refuse!" ”

"That's right! Telegrams sent to military commanders, or encrypted! It's not easy for too many people to know about this business. If Dai Juza is interested, let him prepare the money. I only accept gold and the ocean, I don't recognize other currencies! ”

"Yes, Captain!"

Gold and white ocean are hard currencies, and both locals and foreigners recognize them. In contrast, most of the currencies issued in other countries do not hold much value. In addition to the common people who are forced to use it, most people only recognize gold and silver.

Knowing that the military commander also had his own small treasury and took out a sum of money to engage in the pharmaceutical business, Hu Biao believed that Dai Li would be happy. With this business, Dai Li can make more money and a lot of favors.

Especially those generals in the army, they fought on the front line, and a large number of subordinates were injured. If all you rely on the rear hospital to administer drugs for treatment, it can only be done by luck. In order to win people's hearts, it is not wrong to stock up on more special drugs.

At least one thing Hu Biao had discovered earlier, that is, the officers and soldiers of the Anti-Japanese War Army are very fond of picking up the first aid kits of little devils. Every time I see the cross medicine box, the soldiers of the national army cleaning the battlefield will be like picking up a treasure.

The reason is very simple, the medicine box carried by the Japanese medical staff will store some life-saving special medicines. Picking up such a medicine box is no different from picking up a treasure. Who wouldn't love something that could save their lives?

Recently, Dai Li, who has been collecting battlefield intelligence, is naturally a busy person. Receiving the encrypted telegram from Hu Biao, looking at the translated content of the telegram, Dai Li's eyes suddenly lit up.

As the fighting on the front line became more frequent, the demand for medicines on the part of the government increased. Although the government had already begun to build the Yunnan-Burma Highway, it planned to use it to transport some supplies restricted by the Japanese army into the rear.

Similar to imported medicines, it is naturally a type of transportation material. However, in terms of the current procurement volume, compared with the government's demand, it can be described as a drop in the bucket. Most medicines are used by some people for personal gain.

Thinking of the Zhongtong that was established not long ago, Dai Li also knows the importance of funds. If the military commander's small treasury has more money, he will be able to recruit troops, recruit some elite soldiers and strong generals, and expand the military commander's spy organs and teams.

If you count on everything from above, I'm afraid you won't be able to do anything. After receiving the telegram, Dai Li personally came to the telegram room, found a confidant telegrapher, and wrote a telegram report: "Call Feihu back and ask him about the price and shipment!" ”

Looking at the telegram sent by Dai Li, Hu Biao said with a smile: "It seems that our Dai Juzao is also a businessman!" Pass him the price I just wrote, and the quantity that can be supplied each time. As long as there is money, medicine is not a problem! ”

Although Hu Biao's storage space is not too large, the amount of medicines that can be stored at a time is very huge. Coupled with Brooke, a drug dealer, the number of drugs that Hu Biao can purchase next time he returns to Shanghai should be very huge.

During this time, through inquiries with Pang Bingxun and others, Hu Biao probably knew the price of drugs in the rear. The price of the medicines he sold to the military commanders was 30 percent lower than that of the black market. As for the market, the price of the drug is higher.

In many cases, for some people who are in urgent need of special drugs, they often have money and cannot buy them. This means that as long as Hu Biao can take the medicine out of the Japanese-occupied area, the military commanders who buy the medicine can sell it at a high price.

Looking at the telegram sent back by Hu Biao, Dai Li was shocked and said: "This kid, there is such a channel!" No wonder this kid doesn't look down on that bit of military salary, this financial road alone will make him a lot of money! ”

Earlier, Lao Jiang was still somewhat dissatisfied with Hu Biao's refusal to come to the rear and not accept his summons. Especially when I learned that Hu Biao was working for the military commander, he even had to receive a payment, and he felt even more dissatisfied. The problem is, Hu Biao is very capable!

The victory in Linyi and the victory in Taierzhuang, plus the earlier defense of the presidential palace, are directly related to Hu Biao. Such a capable warrior is exactly what Lao Jiang needs very much. Even Lao Jiang's feelings about Hu Biao are still very contradictory.

Now that he has received a telegram from Hu Biao, Dai Li also knows that Lao Jiang has also accepted Hu Biao for his own use, but he is afraid that it will be very difficult. Compared with the previous Lao Chiang's incorporation of the Northeast Army and the Northwest Army, and even other troops, most of them occupied the Great Righteousness and opened the way to the ocean.

In these years, money can indeed do a lot of things, and it can also make many troops obey orders. Including the Jin Suijun who had grass on the wall earlier, now they can only be loyal to Lao Jiang. The reason is that Yan Xishan, a rich man, can't take out too much money to feed the troops at the moment.

The troops need to be expanded, weapons, ammunition, and supplies, all of which require money to open the way. If you don't have money, you can't get anything done. Why is the Eighth Route Army so poor, isn't it because Lao Jiang added and restricted the appropriation!

Thinking of the Zhongtong established earlier, Dai Li thought for a while and said: "The reason why the Zhongtong gang are good is not precisely because their boss is rich!" Winning this pharmaceutical business, Lao Tzu will be able to expand his team in the future and fight with them. ”

There is such a thing as money, even if it is a high-ranking and powerful Dai Li, it will not be too much. With more money, Dai Li can also recruit more subordinates. Who would want to make others die and have no benefit?
