Yan'an started by fighting local tyrants to divide the land, overthrow the landlord class, and win over the common people to the greatest extent.

However, the policy in the areas occupied behind enemy lines is slightly different.

After all, in the battlefield behind enemy lines, there is always only one biggest enemy, and that is the Japanese devils.

The antagonism with the landlord class turned into an internal contradiction.

Therefore, on the battlefield behind enemy lines, the Eighth Route Army became more attracted to the enemy, rather than blindly defeating it, and also hoped to use this means to prevent the landlords from falling to the devil and becoming traitors, and to be as consistent with the outside world as possible.

This is consistent with Zhang Ran's previous treatment of Ma Chengbang and other landlords - some blood is necessary, as long as the landlords are willing to rein in the precipice and support the Eighth Route Army, then these Eighth Route Army are very willing to put aside this internal dispute and reach an agreement with the landlords.

But the Duan family not only directly chose confrontation, but even took pride in bullying the Eighth Route Army......

Such a landlord, if he is not completely defeated, will have a great impact on the prestige of the Eighth Route Army!

In Cangshui, because of the unfavorable situation, when Zhang Ran chose to temporarily retreat, he clearly saw the disappointment in the eyes of those ordinary people!

Therefore, for the Duan family, Zhang Ran not only has to be completely defeated, but also has to be fast!

Otherwise, I am afraid that the matter of Cangshui will spread ten or ten hundreds, and the surrounding people will not dare to say what they will do to the Eighth Route Army, but they will lose confidence in their Jindong detachment, which is absolutely certain!

Of course, in addition to these factors, taking the warehouse water, eliminating the enemy around it, expanding the depth of the detachment's base area, and waiting for the mass production of chemical fertilizer in the future, there will be a larger area to use chemical fertilizer and increase the output of grain.

As for the two light machine guns in the Cangshui Self-Defense Force that made the soldiers salivate, and the coal mine in Longwanggou, which has not yet been discovered in Zhang Ran's heart, it has become less important.

After listening to Zhang Ran's analysis, not only Wang Changtian, Wang Laogui and others, who were bent on fighting the landlord to make a fortune and alleviate the financial situation of the detachment, but even Deng Fang did not object anymore, looking at Zhang Ran's eyes was extremely strange, as if he had re-acquainted himself with him.

From the beginning, I thought Zhang Ran was a hooligan Tubalu, but later I felt that he was still a little knowledgeable......

At this moment, Deng Fang felt that Zhang Ran had a bit of a military meaning......

Deng Ying never spoke.

Although she is now teaching children to read and write in the classes run by the detachment, and sometimes helping to illiteracy the soldiers and villagers, it is clear that her status in the base area is more like an accessory of Deng Fang - if it weren't for Deng Fang, it is estimated that she would not be eligible to attend today's dinner.

But even so, it cannot be denied that Deng Ying is definitely a very smart girl, and the education she received since she was a child has given her a vision that ordinary people can't have.

Therefore, when Zhang Ran was analyzing the various gains and losses of attacking Cangshui one by one, although she did not participate in the discussion, her heart was already turbulent, and when a pair of beautiful big eyes looked at Zhang Ran, she was tender and sweet, but she always bowed her head quickly as if she was afraid of being discovered.

Lu Yan is obviously much more mellow than at the beginning, and because she is one of the cadres who mobilize the masses around Zhang Ran, she has derived a kind of professional woman's temperament, her eyes are firm and open, at least when discussing work, she is completely on the matter.

Only when he saw Deng Ying's shyness and apprehension in his eyes looking at Zhang Ran, some complicated feelings appeared in his heart, but he was quickly covered up by problems at work.

After explaining the problems of mass support, Zhang Ran looked at Mao Zuan and Cheng Dongguo.

The problem of a serious shortage of ammunition, from the very beginning to the present, has been the main factor restricting the combat effectiveness of the detachment.

From the establishment of the detachment to the present, the most abundant ammunition harvest was the handful of wool that Xu Song had on the county seat last time.

This time, although the detachment did gain a lot, not only eliminated thirty or forty devils and dozens of puppet soldiers, but also harvested two engines and a large number of high-quality steel removed from trucks, in addition to seizing a large number of guns, including more than a dozen of the 38 covers with excellent light performance......

But the gains in ammunition are much more pitiful......

Combined with the harvest of scraping the ground on the side of the drill and the seizure on the detachment's side, the entire detachment now adds up to just over 1,400 rounds of ammunition!

You know, when the detachment set off, two platoons of the detachment each carried twenty rounds of ammunition!

In other words, in the area of bullets, the detachment is equivalent to a draw, no loss or gain!

But it was shells and stink bombs and so on, and the detachment gained greatly.

There were six or seven thousand cartridge casings brought back, and together with the detachment's own original cartridge casings, which could be used to reload bullets, there were now nearly 10,000 cartridge casings.

The collected cannonballs and other stink bombs added up to six or seven hundred.

These stinky bombs are not the garbage of the detachment's black powder, but the things of the main force of the little devils, which are filled with good medicine, and now the task of Mao Diamond is to prepare to use the good medicine in these stinky bombs and these shells to overcome the problem of bullet reloading!

As long as this problem is overcome, the detachment's ammunition problem should be temporarily alleviated.

"I've already dismantled some of the shells and stinkballs, and I have a little experience when dismantling the danger of dismantling the stink bombs, that is, the explosives in many shells are solidified, and I am still looking for ......a way to take them out smoothly and use them."

Mao Zuan's expression was very serious, obviously through this period of study, he has learned more and more about ammunition, knows the power of those explosives in the body of the projectile, and knows how dangerous it is to scrape out the solidified powder from the body of the bullet by hard methods.

Once it explodes, it will definitely kill people!

Therefore, it is necessary to find a safer and more secure way to remove the explosives from the body of the stink bomb.

In addition to the difficulty of how to safely remove the explosives from the stink bomb to use it, there is another difficulty in reloading the bullet - that is, the primer!

In the pre-current era, bullets were roughly divided into two types of bullets in addition to caliber.

One is a German-style bullet with a primer shell integrated into Germany, and the other is a detached bullet with a separate earth-fire charge separation used in most countries today.

German-style one-piece ammunition is very rare, and it is also not suitable for reloading, and it is easy to damage if one is not careful.

So there is no doubt that the main target of the reloaded bullet is the detachable bullet with the primer propellant separated.

The explosives in the stink bomb can barely be used for propellant, so the problem of propellant can be solved at present, but the primer has to be solved completely by itself.

On the hair diamond side, there is no score on how to solve the primer at present!

When he said this, Mao Ran looked at Zhang Ran with a guilty face, probably because he felt that he was not capable enough and dragged the detachment back, and he was too incompetent as the minister of ammunition.

"Minister Mao, don't worry, we are all crossing the river by feeling the stones now, and if we encounter difficulties, let's find a way to solve them together - there is always a way!"

Zhang Ran encouraged Mao Drill, in terms of primer, he had a vague impression, as for the specific steps have to be tested to know, but I believe that as long as the sulfuric acid comes out, to solve the problem of primer, it should not be big.

"Captain on my side, don't worry - as long as you give the task, our second workshop will guarantee the completion of any production task!"

As soon as he saw Zhang Ran looking at him, Cheng Dongguo didn't wait for Zhang Ran to speak, he slapped his chest with a bang, full of confidence!

He worked in the arsenal, and he was a fine and professional professional, not a halfway monk like Mao Diamond.

In the past, the various problems in the second workshop were more due to external problems, such as the lack of diesel fuel in the power engine, the lack of qualified raw materials, etc., which had nothing to do with his and Cui Sanyuan's technology.

And now, the detachment came back and brought back so much good steel, diesel fuel and engine oil in the two trucks, Zhang Ran didn't waste it, and directly installed it with a kettle or something, and even the engine brought back two, adding up to three power machines!

Although these equipment can't be compared with the previous big arsenal, it can barely be regarded as a sparrow, although it is small, and the five organs are complete, if he still has the confidence to do a good job in the production tasks assigned by Zhang Ran, then the years of working in the arsenal before can be regarded as in vain!

"You second workshop, I think it's better to use those broken copper and iron - don't think about the idea of fighting the good steel we brought back this time!"

Zhang Ran specially explained that he kept these steels for great use!

Although the rail steel is also considered good steel, otherwise the Eighth Route Army would not have been contemptuously called the Road Pickup Army in history!

These orbital steels, after being picked up by the Eighth Route Army, were not only used to fight bayonets, but also used orbital steel to create famous horse rifles, grenadiers and even some small cannons and other self-made weapons, making indelible contributions to the victory of the battlefield behind enemy lines, and even the final victory!

It's just that although rail steel is indeed a good steel, it is still a little worse when used to make weapons, whether it is a horse rifle or a grenadier and other things, the service life is very limited, and the performance has been greatly affected.

And this time, the steel brought back by Zhang Ran and others, especially the chassis steel disassembled from the truck, is made of the best steel, which is much stronger than the track steel!

In case of making rifles, the production of rifles is too large, and the good steel they brought back is simply not enough.

But if it is used to make some small cannons such as grenadiers, the effect made of chassis steel is definitely better than that made of track steel, both in terms of service life and performance, it is much stronger, and on the battlefield, it can play a greater role!

Originally, Cheng Dongguo was immediately deflated when he heard that the good steel could not be moved for the time being and that he had to process those broken copper and iron, but as soon as he heard Zhang Ran say that these good steel would be used to make grenadiers and artillery fire in the future, he immediately smiled.

Thinking of the devils who were bombed by the hands of himself and others, the devils and ghosts cried wolf, and his father could see Jiuquan in the sky, and he was happy that the teeth and flowers came out.
