Chapter 363: The devil begins to build a watchtower

When the last bit of snow melted, the grass emerged from the ground.

It seems that overnight, the earth will come back to spring!

Zhang Ran carried a small basket and followed behind the buttocks of a group of yelling bear children digging wild vegetables......

Historically, the Eighth Route Army and the villagers dug wild vegetables in order to survive.

And Zhang Ran digs wild vegetables completely to try new things and improve his life......

Those are two very different feelings.

"Captain Zhang, are you so empty today?"

Xu Jiunian salivated and greeted Zhang Ran with a flattering face.

"Oh, I've been busy enough these days, I'll give myself a day off today, and I'll take a break from my busy life!"

Zhang Ran smiled dryly, and at the same time asked Xu Jiunian how he was doing here.

Although he despised this guy's behavior of taking advantage of the fire to rob, and even beat this guy with his own hands because of this, Zhang Ran was still very polite when he saw the other party - he was the captain of the Jindong detachment, and he felt that it was really a bit of a loss to deal with such a guy.

"It's good, it's good, the detachment has good food and accommodation, and the wages are paid in a timely manner......

Xu Jiunian said, and then his eyes stopped talking.

"That's good, do it well, keep up the good work!"

Zhang Ran smiled, didn't give the other party a chance to resign, turned around and left.

This guy, Zhang Ran can't let him go!

With this guy's temperament, Zhang Ran is almost certain that once this guy leaves, he will definitely report to the Japanese, and then the detachment will be in big trouble!

Therefore, once those students have learned his skills, Zhang Ran plans to find a way to solve this guy!

Although once he does this, he will definitely be in big trouble if he hears some rumors from the organization in the future, but Zhang Ran can't care about it so much!

returned to the team site, handed over a basket of wild vegetables to the cook, and asked the other party to help him with the cold mix, and Zhang Ran entered the team site.

There were several documents scattered on the table.

One came from the county seat, and the exercise has ended, and the combat coordination capability of various units has been greatly improved......

Zhang Ran glanced at it and put it aside, this kind of thing is supported by them, so he won't interfere.

Then there was the secret document sent by Liu Qing, which was still marked with fire paint.

"Is there anything important?"

Seeing the fire paint seal, Zhang Ran's heart suddenly sudden, and he hurriedly opened it to look at it, and then he laughed dumbly.

In the letter, Liu Qing briefly described his work report to Yan'an, and at the same time said that the talents sent by the detachment played a huge role in the various base areas, which several base areas have recently prepared pure sulfuric acid, and the self-sufficiency of high explosives will soon be realized......

Seeing this, Zhang Ran clenched his fists excitedly!

It was more than a year before the base areas achieved self-sufficiency in high explosives, and that was more than a year later!

Because of themselves, the base areas have achieved this more than a year earlier than in history!

"Little devil, when your family comes back, admit your bad luck!"

Zhang Ran hehe Zhile, he can be sure that because of the early self-sufficiency of high explosives, the soldiers and villagers of the Eighth Route Army in various base areas will die a lot, and the little devils will die a lot!

Under the influence of one another, the course of history is quietly changing because of itself......

Although it is difficult to say what the final result will look like, it is certain that it is developing in a direction that is beneficial to the Chinese people, not worse!

Just this makes Zhang Ran feel gratified!

As for at the end of the letter, Liu Qing wrote a lot.

Cautiously told Zhang Ran that the leaders of Yan'an, the leaders also knew about him, and highly praised everything he had done, but because of the internal problems of the organization, the leaders of the leaders hoped that the relationship between the detachment and the organization would maintain the current situation for the purpose of protecting him, and hoped that Zhang Ran would understand, and at the same time continue to maintain cooperation with the organization, and continue to fight together for the future of the country and the survival of 40,000,000 compatriots......

For these, Zhang Ran doesn't care.

Because he knows what he wants to achieve most now-he wants to make those little devils pay more bloody price for their aggression, and use the blood of little devils to wash away a little bit of the shame and humiliation suffered by the Chinese nation!

What's more, in this era, how can a person like himself who is silently dedicated be the only one?

So many unsung heroes buried their bones on the battlefield, and so many heroes lurked among the Japanese to endure humiliation......

And now, at least alive, at least not worried about the safety of life, and respected - what is not satisfied?

Then Zhang Ran carefully folded the letter and carefully collected it - not to mention that Liu Qing wrote several leaders' praise and praise for himself in the letter, just say that this letter is Liu Qing's handwritten letter, which is enough to treasure!

He is sure that if he takes out this letter in a few decades, it will definitely cause a sensation throughout the country, and if he is short of money, he will send it to the auction house, and there will be no problem if he auctions tens of millions!

The remaining documents were either sent by Sun Hongzhong and Tu Jinjun to report on the development of the guerrillas, how many captured broken copper and iron or guns that could still be repaired, etc., or the awakening of the Gaolin area, they sent a letter to apply for support for a batch of grenades, mines, bullets, etc.

These things, Zhang Ran naturally waved his pen and gave them as much as he could.

After all, no matter which guerrilla unit grows in strength, it will be beneficial and harmless to the detachment.

What caught Zhang Ran's attention was a letter sent by Dou Wensong, the leader of Lu Song's guerrillas.

Recently, the strength of the devils has been greatly replenished, and now they have begun to lay out to the area around Lusong again, and the county towns of the two counties have once again fallen under the control of the Japanese army.

Moreover, the devils are now centered on the county seat and have begun to drive the people to build watchtower fortresses along the communication lines!

"It seems that the little devil has adopted Okamura Ninji's suggestion and officially operated the occupied area and implemented the cage policy and the three-light policy!"

Although he knew that all this would definitely come, when he saw the news, Zhang Ran's mood couldn't help but become heavy - because this officially represented the official arrival of the most difficult period of the War of Resistance behind enemy lines!

At the same time, it also announces the advent of a new wave of war!

Once the Japanese army has completed the layout in Lusong and other counties, it will launch an offensive against Dingzhou and Pingtongguan!

At that time, it will be the time when the detachment and Liu Qingzhi's main force will attack with all their might, cooperate with the soldiers of Pingtongguan, and fight to the death with the Japanese army!

"Lao Tzu has been preparing for more than a year, for now - little devil, let's see you on the battlefield when the time comes!"

Zhang Ran silently clenched his fists, gritted his teeth fiercely, and then continued to read.

While the little devils were based on Lu County and Song County, building watchtowers along the way and expanding outward, the guerrillas led by the detachment, including Dou Wensong and Guo Haoyun, as well as the guerrillas spontaneously established by the localities, were not idle.

More than a dozen guerrilla units, large and small, have recently taken turns organizing various attacks, sneak attacks, night raids, and other actions against the Japanese army.

Because of the mines, grenades and guns provided by the detachment, the Lu Song guerrillas led by Dou Wensong and Guo Haoyun have achieved brilliant results, and so far they have killed seven devils, more than 30 puppet soldiers, and captured 13 guns of various kinds and hundreds of bullets......

The casualties on the part of the guerrillas were not small, but their combat effectiveness was also greatly improved because of these actual battles.

As for the rest of the partisans, it was less optimistic.

The most powerful Du Jianbo's Lu Song joint column was ambushed by the Japanese army, and suffered more than 60 casualties in the first battle, and Feng Chaoyang's guerrillas were almost wiped out......

Like Feng Chaoyang's guerrillas, several guerrilla units were either destroyed or disbanded due to heavy casualties......

Because of this, Dou Wensong's Lu Song guerrillas absorbed a lot of guerrillas, and their strength increased instead of decreasing!

The only one that can compare with the results of the guerrillas led by Dou Wensong is the Songxian Self-Defense Force led by Qin Zhaojin.

Five days ago, the Song County Self-Defense Force attacked an unfinished watchtower being built by the Japanese invaders at night, killing more than 20 puppet soldiers, and even capturing and executing the traitor puppet army commander alive, so his strength skyrocketed!

Now, the situation of the guerrillas in Lu Song No. 2 County has changed dramatically from a month ago.

The strength of the Lu Song Joint Column, which was the strongest at the beginning, has now been greatly weakened, while the strength of the Song County Self-Defense Force has been greatly enhanced, and the Lu Song guerrillas led by Dou Wensong and Guo Haoyun have shown a triangular trend.

At the end of the letter, Dou Wensong mentioned that Du Jianbo and Qin Zhaojin's men were now in contact with them, hoping to buy grenades, mines and bullets from the detachment through them, and asked Zhang Ran what he meant.

Zhang Ran wrote back.

First of all, I reminded Dou Wensong and Guo Haoyun that the guerrillas' operational policy must be to mobilize the masses as the mainstay, supplemented by attacks and harassments, to fight as soon as they can, and to withdraw if they can't, and to avoid fighting head-on with the Japanese puppet army as much as possible!

Of course, Zhang Ran agreed to Du Jianbo and Qin Zhaojin's purchase of ammunition and grenades from the detachment, but he still hoped that Dou Wensong and Guo Haoyun would do work for the two of them first, and hoped that they would accept the leadership of the detachment, so that the detachment would provide them with bullets, grenades and other materials for free to a large extent!

If not, let's talk about the purchase.

After checking it and confirming that it was correct, Zhang Ran handed the reply to the liaison officer for him to pass it on, and at the same time became a little curious about this Qin Zhaojin - the guerrillas led by this guy were average in strength among all the guerrillas before, but now there was a big news suddenly, and it was difficult for him not to pay attention!

"Being able to kill twenty or thirty puppet soldiers at a time and capture the puppet army commander alive is a talent!"

Zhang Ran thought about it, and asked people to find Ke Langzi, and asked Ke Langzi and Ren Haifang to send someone to investigate Qin Zhaojin secretly, if there is no problem with confirming the identity, he will try to see if he can win him over!
