Early the next morning, Ning Chenlong, Wang Xianliang, Liu Zhongping, Wen Jun and others came to the conference room of the headquarters, and after the other leaders arrived, Ning Chenlong reported to Lin Zhifeng; "Political commissar, we repeatedly studied and discussed the drawings last night, and it has been made clear that today we will take people to the back mountain to clean up the karst caves, and build a large number of buildings, some of the caves need to be expanded and chiseled, and the roads outside also need to be renovated, and some of the caves are about to build houses, and the troops will be transferred to the back mountain caves, the original Jiuqu Cave is only left for the people of the guard battalion to live, and the other battalions are transferred to the caves in the back mountains to live, this is the cleaning and expansion of the Tibetan Soldier Cave, as well as the cleaning of the arsenal caves, and the list of materials for the big wind wheel for power generation has been opened, Liu Zhongping and Nie Xiaoxi of the special combat team went to the county town to find Uncle Xiang and they found a way to procure, and Liu Zhongping will go to the deputy captain to receive a sum of money later, do you leaders have anything to add? ”

After Lin Zhifeng heard this, he was silent for a while, and then waved his hand; "We believe in you, there is nothing to add, you let go and do it. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Zhao Sihai immediately stood up and said to Liu Zhongping; "Xiao Liu, come with me to get the money!" After speaking, he took Liu Zhongping to the treasury to withdraw the money.

After they left, Ning Chenlong commanded the guard Qin Wuhammer again; "Go and call all the battalion commanders to the headquarters conference room."

After Qin Wuhammer received the order, he immediately ran to the battalions to convey the order.

After a while, Liu Zhongping had already received the funds, and when he returned to the conference room of the headquarters with Zhao Sihai, Liu Zhongping said goodbye to several leaders; "Leaders, I'll set off and immediately find Nie Xiaoxi to go to the county seat together."

As soon as Liu Zhongping left, the battalion commanders of each battalion came to the conference room of the headquarters one after another, and the entire company of Qin Erhammer, who had surrendered to the Imperial Army, was incorporated into the third battalion of Qin Sanhammer, Qin Erhammer and Qin Sanhammer were brothers, and the two brothers negotiated, Qin Erhammer was the main battalion commander of the third battalion, and Qin Sanhammer gave way to be the deputy battalion commander, and the men and horses of the third battalion were also enriched at once, and only their third and fifth battalions had a principal and deputy commander in several battalions.

Ning Chenlong instructed Pang Siboa, the deputy commander of the guard battalion; "You immediately lead people to remove all the nets and mines on the back mountain, and only leave a few sentry posts."

Pang Si Python immediately led the order to turn back and go out, and after he left, Ning Chenlong pointed to the drawings on the table and gave the battalion commanders of each battalion a division of labor, and asked Wang Xianliang, Wen Jun and several other comrades to go to each battalion to be responsible for guiding the expansion work.

The battalion commanders of each battalion knew that the troops were going to move to the cave in the back mountain, where the deployment was more large-scale prevention, everyone was enthusiastic, and returned to their respective battalions with orders with full confidence, and organized the soldiers to find iron picks, shovels, hammers, steel drills, baskets and other tools, and some battalions were to build houses, so they found good carpentry tools such as plate axes, large and small saws, and everyone went to the back mountain to work in full swing under the leadership of Wang Xianliang.

After the battalion commanders of each battalion left, Lin Zhifeng sat alone at the long table and was silent, but her eyes flashed with bright brilliance, and after a long time, she smiled heartily and muttered to herself; "Large-scale expansion and transfer of troops, so that we can be regarded as having a consolidated base area, and basically have no worries, well, it's really good!"

Ning Chenlong answered; "Of course, in this way, General Ao can be said to be a strong barrier, impregnable, even if it is convenient to retreat, Yeludi is full of ravines and cliffs, dense forests cover the sky, now we only need to pull out the devil turret stronghold in Shuangji Town, our base can be said to overlook the two banks of the Yuma River under the Weimeng Mountain, and the retreat can rely on the natural danger of the Weimeng Mountain."

Lu Caiting said to Lin Zhifeng; "Political commissar, we ambushed the devil's transport convoy and counterattacked the devil's sweep this time, and seized a large amount of weapons and ammunition, with the momentum of this victory, we should form a propaganda group to go to Yukougu Market Town and Wangjiaji under the Weimeng Mountain to publicize anti-Japanese resistance, mobilize the masses, recruit new soldiers, expand the team, and prepare to pull out the Devil's Fort stronghold in Shuangji Town."

After Lin Zhifeng heard this, he slapped the table and agreed loudly; "Wow! If this proposal is good, we will immediately send people to form a propaganda group, who do you think will be in charge? ”

Lu Caiting immediately replied; "I think it's better to have Comrade Xia Yunzhu in charge than to teach, she is a female comrade and eloquent, and she will send someone from the special combat team to take a platoon as a guard to be responsible for her and his safety."

Lin Zhifeng immediately turned around and shouted loudly outside the door; "Sister Cao! Come in for a moment. ”

Cao Shimei, who was outside the gate, heard the shout of the political commissar, and immediately ran into the house, stood up and saluted, and waited for the order.

Lin Zhifeng instructed her; "Go and call Comrade Xia Yunzhu, who is engaged in propaganda, here and tell her that she has a task."

Lu Caiting added; "By the way, I also called Shen Shenjun, the captain of the special combat team, here, and said that he also has a mission."

Cao Shimei turned around and walked out of the room and ran away.

didn't wait long, Xia Yunzhu and Shen Shenjun came to the conference room of the headquarters almost at the same time, Lin Zhifeng beckoned them to sit down, and arranged for Xia Yunzhu to go to Yukouguji Town and Wangjiaji at the bottom of the mountain to publicize anti-Japanese resistance, mobilize the masses, and recruit new soldiers.

After Xia Yunzhu understood the task, she happily accepted it and said happily; "To ensure the completion of the task, let's bring the military flag of the column to unfold, and then find a few classmates to bring cymbals and gongs and drums to beat, and earnestly publicize the anti-Japanese speech, which will definitely be able to arouse the enthusiasm of the villagers and bring back a large number of new soldiers for our column."

Lu Caiting also instructed Shen Shenjun; "You arranged for Chang Yuling to lead a platoon of soldiers of the special combat team as the security sentry of their propaganda team, Chang Yuling is very familiar with the places in this area, put the sentinels farther away, if there is any situation, retreat in time, and must ensure the safety of the comrades of the propaganda team."

Shen Shenjun stood up and generously agreed; "No problem, I'll go back to the team to make arrangements." He asked Xia Yunzhu again; "When is your propaganda team leaving?"

Xia Yunzhu also stood up and replied crisply; "Just do it, and organize people to set off immediately."

The two of them hurriedly walked out of the headquarters conference room.

Looking at their energetic appearance, several leaders in the room laughed, Ning Chenlong said to Duan Xingguo; "Instructor, you have to work hard to train recruits, your achievements in training recruits are obvious to all, in these two ambush battles, the quality of the recruits is of high quality, their attack, retreat speed and formation are also standardized, especially the accuracy of their shooting, whether it is lying shooting, or running shooting are very good, these are inseparable from the instructor's painstaking training."

Duan Xingguo lifted his sleeves and said with a big grin; "It's not hard, it's as addictive as fighting, there has been no recruit training these days, and my heart is still itchy, but the previous batch of recruits, in addition to the student soldiers, their own quality is very good, the villagers, Qinglongtang and those bandits, their own marksmanship is very good, just train them to standardize it, student soldiers, I haven't touched the gun, but just put in a little more effort, they can also master the guns well, and the shooting level is not lower than that of other battalions, good wow! Recruit some new recruits, we won't be so idle and uncomfortable. ”

The words made everyone in the room laugh again, and Zhao Sihai also said next to him; "Okay, you recruit your recruits, it seems that I have to send people down the mountain to get more food and poultry back, the team will be expanded, the soldiers train very hard every day, food can't be left behind, fortunately, we still have enough funds."

Several leaders were talking and laughing, and a soldier standing guard ran into the conference room of the headquarters and reported; "Report to the leaders, more than a dozen male and female comrades have come from below the mountain, and they say that they are cadres appointed by the county to work in our column."

Lin Zhifeng immediately stood up, was slightly surprised, and immediately said to the soldiers standing guard; "Ask them to come here."

The soldier standing guard turned around and went out, and after a while, more than a dozen men and women walked in from outside the gate, these people all looked quite gentle, a little bookish, the first young man, quickly looked at the people in the room, his eyes fell on Lin Zhifeng, and he hurriedly took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Lin Zhifeng; "If I guessed correctly, this should be Comrade Lin Zhifeng, the political commissar of the Anti-Japanese Independent Column in Weimeng Mountain, and I have a letter from Comrade Zeng Qingfan ******** here, you will know our situation after reading it."

Lin Zhifeng took the letter, took out the letterhead from the envelope and read it, and Zhao Sihai hurriedly beckoned everyone who came in to sit down around the long table.

The guards also handed water cups to everyone, these people probably came to the mountains very early, and they walked hard, and they were not polite, and many people kept drinking water with water cups.

The young man who handed the letter did not sit down to drink water, but still stood on the spot, waiting for Lin Zhifeng to reply after reading the letter.

Lin Zhifeng finished reading the letter, put the letter on the table, quickly glanced at the young man, smiled, and reached out to shake hands with the young man; "I have read Secretary Zeng's letter, you are Comrade Gu Atong mentioned in Secretary Zeng's letter, on behalf of all the comrades of the independent column in the base area, I welcome the working group appointed by your county, comrades, welcome you to the base area to form an anti-Japanese democratic government." After finishing speaking, he introduced Lu Caiting, Zhao Sihai, Ning Chenlong, Duan Xingguo and others to someone named Gu Atong and the people who came with him.

Gu Atong and more than a dozen men and women who came with him all stood up one after another, happily nodding to the leaders of the column to show their respect, and Gu Atong also introduced these people to the leaders of the column one by one.

A young woman with short ear-length hair, her face was red and simple, and she combed her sideburns with her hands, excitedly and excitedly; "Back to our own base, the feeling is different, even the air is much fresher, when we came in just now, we saw our soldiers carrying iron picks and shovels, baskets and flat shoulders are busy in the back mountains, as if they are engaged in some civil engineering, can you take a visit?"

Lin Zhifeng replied with a smile; "You are all comrades appointed by the county, what can't you visit? I'll send someone to show you. ”

Lu Caiting hurriedly stretched out his hand to stop him; "In this way, comrades have come all the way from the county seat, they must be very hard and tired, the deputy captain called Lou Li and the two of you to bring the comrades to the camp in the cave, arrange accommodation for them first, pack up their luggage, take a rest, and visit tomorrow."

When Zhao Sihai saw Lu Caiting speak, he quickly stood up and said politely to the comrades who came; "Come with me, put your luggage away first, take a rest, and then take you around tomorrow to visit."

The young woman with short hair with her ears just introduced her as Ye Lin, who changed her sleeves and pleaded; "We are not tired, the base area has always been a place we yearn for, I heard that not long ago, you fought a beautiful victory here, annihilating many people in a squadron of devils, how inspiring!"

Lu Caiting explained with a busy smile; "The conditions in the base area are poor, and there is still a lot of work waiting for you to do, so you must protect your body, and you can't do anything without your body."

Gu Atong also persuaded Ye Lindao; "The captain of the team is kind-hearted, you are so impatient, everyone has arrived at the base, are you afraid that you haven't seen it? Let's go, listen to the captain's arrangement, go and put the luggage away first, so that you can rest for a while. With that, he led the way to the gate.

Seeing this, two other young women hurriedly changed Ye Lin's arms, lifted her up and walked out of the door, and the rest of the people followed Zhao Sihai to the door.

After this group of people walked out of the gate, Lin Zhifeng stared at Lu Caiting with some incomprehension, which meant that the captain seemed to be deliberately refuting her face as a political commissar.

Ning Chenlong explained for Lu Caiting with a smile; "The captain is right to do this, let's expand and renovate the karst cave in the back mountain, before the work is completed, it is all a military secret, I will go to inform the guard battalion later, and call the 'mammoth giant elephant' of the guard battalion Cao Jiu personally lead people to stand guard, whether it is a person appointed by the county or other strangers, during this period, they are not allowed to approach the back mountain."

Lin Zhifeng shook his head with a wry smile, picked up the letter on the table and explained; "This is a handwritten letter from the newly appointed ******** of the county party committee, Comrade Zeng Qingfan, the former secretary of the county party committee, died when he was covered by the retreat of other comrades when the investigation team wantonly destroyed the traffic liaison station of the county party committee, and I only met when I contacted the county party committee last time, Secretary Zeng praised and thanked our independent column for the hoeing and rape action, which severely damaged the detective team of the gendarmerie, and the work of the county party committee was able to resume so quickly, and they also sent a working group according to the instructions of the provincial party committee this time to prepare for the establishment of an anti-Japanese democratic government in our base area. We are bound to actively support their work by implementing the policy of reducing rents and interest rates in the countryside to reduce the burden on the peasants, and at the same time, we can also raise military rations for our New Fourth Army. ”

Lu Caiting nodded in understanding; "I also mean this, the cave in the back mountain in the expansion and transformation, it is easy to see the concealment, the comrades of the county party committee are temporarily formed, so we have to guard against some, once the concealment of the cave leaks out and is mastered by the devils, they will focus on the breakthrough, take the key blasting, will cause us incalculable losses."

Lin Zhifeng smiled and said; "Okay, our captain is not lacking in vigilance at all, it seems that we all have to learn from you."

Ning Wolong stood up and said to Lin Zhifeng and Lu Caiting; "Let's go, let's also go to the back mountain to see the location of the artillery, cover the terrain of the entire general ao and Dongqiao Village under the range of our artillery fire, and retreat from the cave to the back mountain must also choose a few quick routes."

Lin Zhifeng, Lu Caiting, and Duan Xingguo all stood up and followed Ning Wolong out of the conference room, and the guards saw this and hurriedly followed out.
