As the only intelligence leader of the Inner Mongolia Military Region, Qian Zhuangfei is the most mysterious among all the leaders of the Military Region. Like all units, the intelligence department of the Inner Mongolia Military Region is responsible for external intelligence gathering and internal security.

The so-called internal security is to prevent a small group of enemies from lurking in the base area to destroy, and at the same time, it is also necessary to screen a series of internal traitors and spies, so many people still have a relationship with Qian Zhuangfei.

Qian Zhuangfei was not hypocritical, got up and said loudly: "Comrades, after more than ten days of investigation by our intelligence department, combined with some information collected before, we can roughly judge the number and strength structure of the various units in our base area that the Japanese army attacked. The Japanese attack group attacking southern Hebei had more than 50,000 people, and the commander was Lieutenant General Hyotaro Kimura, commander of the 32nd Division. This attack group consisted of two divisions, the 32nd and 35th Divisions of the Japanese Army, plus two infantry brigades, the 3rd and 7th Independent Brigades. However, according to the analysis of our intelligence department, the Japanese army attacking southern Hebei seems to be training with the Chinese army in southern Hebei, and this can be seen from the deployment of Japanese troops and attacking southern Hebei. As for the 32nd and 35th infantry divisions, they are only new divisions and regiments that have just been formed this year, and they are also garrison units with a three-unit system, and their combat effectiveness is certainly not as good as that of an old independent brigade like the Third Brigade. According to the information we intercepted, on April 1, 1939, the base camp ordered the newly formed 35th Division to be incorporated into the North China Front; The 36th and 37th Divisions were incorporated into the 1st Army battle sequence; The 32nd Division was incorporated into the 12th Army. The above-mentioned divisions arrived in North China from late April to early May, and their strength was as follows: 32nd Division, division commander Lieutenant General Kimura Hyotaro. The division was formed on February 7, 1939 in Tokyo, Japan, and belonged to the three-unit division for the special garrison, under the jurisdiction of: the 32nd Infantry Regiment: the 210th, 211th, and 212th Infantry Wings. Search the 32nd Wing, the 32nd Field Artillery Wing, the 32nd Engineer Wing, the 32nd Light and Heavy Infantry Wing, the Signal Brigade, the Ordnance Service Unit, the Sanitary Brigade, and the 1st to 2nd Field Hospitals. 35th Division, division commander Lieutenant General Osamu Maeda. The division was formed on February 7, 1939 in Asahikawa, Japan, and belonged to the three-unit division for the special garrison, under the jurisdiction of: Major General Taijiro Iida, commander of the 35th Infantry Regiment: the 219th, 220th, and 221st Infantry Wings. Search the 35th Wing, the 35th Field Artillery Wing, the 35th Engineer Wing, the 35th Light and Heavy Infantry Wing, the Signal Team, the Ordnance Service Team, the Sanitary Team, the 1st and 2nd Field Hospitals, and the Sick Horse Factory. Independently mixed into the 3rd brigade, the brigade commander to a major general Sasaki. It has jurisdiction over the 6th, 7th, 8th, 9th, and 10th Independent Infantry Brigades, Artillery Brigade, Engineer Brigade, and Signal Brigade. The 4th Brigade was formed independently, and the brigade commander was Major General Kaoru Kawamura. The brigade was responsible for garrisoning the area around Shijiazhuang and along the Zhengtai Railway. It has the 11th, 12th, 13th, 14th, and 15th Infantry Brigades, Artillery Corps, Engineer Corps, and Signal Corps under its jurisdiction. ”

After finishing speaking, Qian Zhuangfei took a sip of water and continued: "As for the Japanese army attacking our Saibei, it is indeed not as good as before, according to the intelligence we have collected, the Japanese army has made a bloody investment this time, and the old devil of Binshanyuan is not going to pass." The infantry divisions used to attack our base area this time included the 20th Division, the 21st Division, the 26th Division, the 10th Division, the Yamashita Division, and the Cavalry Group. The firepower of each division is as follows: the 10th Division, the division commander Lieutenant General Yoshio Shinozuka, and the chief of staff does not clip Gui Daisa. Subordinate: 8th Infantry Brigade, Brigade Commander Major General Okada (39th Infantry Wing, Wing Commander Taihei Yyoo Osa, 40th Infantry Wing, Wing Commander Nishiojo Fat Osa. The 33rd Infantry Brigade, the commander of the regiment and brigade, Major General Kei Seya (10th Infantry Wing, Wing Commander Mori Sue Daisa, 63rd Infantry Wing, Wing Commander Fukuei Gonghei Daisa. The 10th Cavalry Wing, Wing Commander Kuwata Sadazo Nakasa, the 10th Field Artillery Wing, Wing Commander Haruji Taniguchi, the 10th Engineer Wing, Wing Commander Ono Yukisong Osa, the 10th Light and Heavy Infantry Wing, Wing Commander Maeno Shiro Osa, the Signal Team, the Health Team; 1st to 4th Field Hospitals. ”…,

"The commander of the 20th Division and division, Lieutenant General Minoru Ushijima, and the chief of staff, Kimura Kuzo Daisa. The division was on guard in the Yuncheng area and along the Yellow River in this section. Subordinate: The 55th Infantry Brigade, Brigade Commander Major General Harada Leyi (112th and 222nd Infantry Wings. The 40th Infantry Brigade, Brigade Commander Major General Yoshio Kamitsuki (79th and 80th Infantry Wings). The 28th Cavalry Wing, the 26th Field Artillery Wing, the 20th Engineer Wing, the 20th Light and Heavy Infantry Wing, the Signal Brigade, the Sanitary Corps, the 1st to 4th Field Hospitals. ”

"The 21st Division, the commander of the division, Lieutenant General Washizu Matsudaira. The division was originally under the direct jurisdiction of the North China Front Army, and was incorporated into the combat sequence of the 12th Army on November 11, 1938. Subordinate: 21st Infantry Brigade, Brigade Commander Major General Toranojiro Iwai: 62nd, 62nd, and 83rd Infantry Wings. The 21st Division Regiment Search Team, the 51st Mountain Artillery Wing, the 21st Engineer Wing, the 21st Light and Heavy Corps Wing, the Signal Team, the Sanitary Team, the 1st to 2nd Field Hospitals. ”

"The 26th Division, the commander of the division, Lieutenant General Houguan Chun, and the chief of staff, Yamashita Konakasa. Subordinate: Brigade Commander of the 26th Infantry Brigade Major General Kurai Fukura: 11th, 12th, and 13th Independent Infantry Wings. Divisional Search Team, 26th Independent Field Artillery Wing, 26th Light and Heavy Artillery Wing, Signal Team, 12th Independent Mountain Artillery Wing. ”

"The cavalry group, commander Lieutenant General Shoichi Naito, originally belonged to the Kwantung Army, and on July 11, 1938, it was incorporated into the battle sequence of the Northern China Army. Subordinate: 1st Cavalry Brigade, Brigade Commander Major General Katagiri Shigeru, under the jurisdiction of the 13th and 14th Cavalry Wings, Machine Gun Team, Rapid-Fire Artillery Squadron, Cavalry Artillery Wing, Combat Fleet, Light and Heavy Team, 1st Cavalry Artillery Wing, 71st Cavalry Wing, Engineer Team; The commander of the 4th Cavalry Brigade, Major General Yoshizo Kojima, was attached to the 2nd Army of the Central China Dispatch Army on October 11. It has the 25th and 26th Cavalry Wings, Machine Gun Brigade, Rapid-Fire Artillery Squadron, Cavalry Artillery Wing, Combat Fleet, Independent Infantry Brigade, Independent Engineer Squadron, Health Team, Light and Heavy Brigade, Sick Horse Factory, 4th Cavalry Wing, and 72nd Cavalry Wing. Therefore, the cavalry group that attacked our military region this time was only a cavalry group that was not satisfied, and the Fourth Cavalry Brigade was fighting south of the Yangtze River at this time, and it would not be able to return for a while and a half. ”

Then Qian Zhuangfei said: "As for the remaining divisions and regiments, they are all our old opponents, and everyone knows their situation, so I won't go into more detail here." ”

As soon as Qian Zhuangfei's words fell, the conference room suddenly exploded. The cadres of all brigade-level cadres of the Inner Mongolia Military Region who received the notice of the meeting this time, mainly the brigade commanders in charge of military affairs, and the political commissars of the garrison units in the rear who need to participate, and the political commissars of the various units on the front line must stay on the front line to command the operation. Once the military rank reaches the brigade level, they can be called senior officers, and the military quality of these people is extremely high, and most of them have realized from Qian Zhuangfei's words the determination of the Japanese army to eliminate the Inner Mongolia Military Region.

Han Yunhua didn't have many surprises, he knew this information when he rushed back to the Inner Mongolia Military Region, and he knew it in more detail than that.

"Comrades, please be quiet. Now that we have a clear picture of the enemy's situation, let's talk about our own strength, and only when we have a clear understanding of the respective strengths of both the enemy and the enemy can we formulate a plan to retreat from the enemy and kill the enemy. Lao Zuo, you are the political commissar of our military region, can you tell me about the situation of the troops? Quite a few words" Han Yunhua said.

Zuo Quan immediately got up and said: "After more than half a year of development, the strength of our military region has developed by leaps and bounds, and it is enough to be called the elite of the Eighth Route Army in terms of personnel and weapons and equipment. At present, our military region has three infantry divisions, one integrated independent brigade, four independent cavalry brigades, six infantry brigades, 13 newly formed columns (brigade-level military units), three guard regiments directly under the military region, 33 garrison regiments, and 154 independent companies. Six of the infantry brigades were expanded from the six infantry regiments directly under the former military region, and the remaining 13 new columns were formed one after another three months ago. The 33 garrison regiments were newly programmed with one garrison regiment per county in accordance with the development plan left by the commander when he went south to Shandong, among which the garrison regiments in Xinghe, Shangyi, Zhangbei, and Fengzhen counties were very strong, while the garrison regiments in Tuzuoqi, Wuyuan County, and other banner counties were much worse, and some even had only two infantry battalions that were not fully staffed, and one regiment had less than 800 people. But that's it, our total strength is also more than 300,000, plus the independent companies, independent battalions, independent brigades and other guerrilla units in each county, the total number of troops we can use has reached nearly 400,000, but there is some water in these 400,000. First of all, our instructors are the troops that the commander pulled up in Shandong, and the total strength is about 40,000 people, but the vast majority of these people are in Shandong and southern Hebei, and they cannot help the military region fight in actual battles. The second is that the strength of the garrison regiments is uneven, and it is simply impossible to fight with the elite units of the Japanese army, otherwise it will be to deliver food to the Japanese army. In addition, the weapons and equipment of these garrison units are also varied, and the main energy of the military region has been used to reorganize the troops of various brigades and above for some time now, and there is no time at all to sort out the garrison regiments of various counties. Therefore, in this counter-sweep, we can actually use the 300th Division, the 77th Independent Division, the 8th Independent Brigade, the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, and 6th Guards Brigade directly under the Military Region, and the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th Independent Brigades......... Thirteen columns, as well as three guard regiments and four separate cavalry brigades. ”…,

Before Zuo Quan's words fell, Han Yunhua continued to ask: "Political commissar, how are the weapons and equipment of our troops, and is the pill sufficient?" ”

"In the past half a year, we have mainly been reorganizing and refitting these main units, so the weapons and equipment of each unit are very good, and it is not an exaggeration to say that they are sophisticated. Among them, the reorganized 300th Division is the starting unit of our military region, so the whole division is all Japanese-made equipment, the rifle is 38 big cover, the machine gun is crooked handle and 96 type, the heavy machine gun is 92 type, and the artillery brigade is equipped with a mountain artillery regiment, two field artillery regiments, a heavy artillery battalion, and there is also a mechanized brigade and a cavalry brigade. Even the Fifth Army of the Central Army, known as the trump card of the Nationalist Government, may not be the opponent of the reorganized 300th Division. The 77th Independent Division and the 8th Independent Brigade are its German-made equipment, and the rifle is Mauser K98, which is extremely strong and also made in Germany. In addition, our remaining six infantry brigades, four cavalry brigades, and thirteen columns are all adjusted units, and all weapons and equipment are of a unified standard, either Japanese weapons or German weapons. As for what I know about ammunition, that is, some general things, let Comrade Ruihua say it, he knows better than me about logistics. Zuo Quan spent another ten minutes explaining the equipment of the troops.

Of course, Zuo Quan's words surprised the commanders of the brigades and columns of the military region who had just been promoted, and they all knew that the military region was very strong and belonged to the kind of existence that sat sideways in the Eighth Route Army, but no one expected that the military region would be so powerful, with more than ten or twenty divisions and brigades at every turn. Such a military region is not much worse than a theater of operations of the Nationalist Government. Think about the number of troops in Yan Xishan's Second War Zone, and there are less than 500,000 people in the Communist Eighth Route Army. The Inner Mongolia Military Region alone has nearly 400,000 people, so it is no wonder that the commander has the confidence to leave all the little devils in Saibei.

Seeing that Zuo Quan mentioned logistics, Yang Ruihua, as the logistics director of the Inner Mongolia Military Region, immediately got up and said: "As the logistics chief of the military region, I will tell you about the family background of our military region over the years. Of course, the Baotou Arsenal is the largest and most important arsenal in our Military Region, and the weapons and ammunition produced by the Baotou Arsenal account for more than 80 percent of our total output. After receiving the commander's order, the logistics department quickly mobilized more than 200 million rounds of ammunition and distributed it to the troops, and this time the ammunition distribution was mainly concentrated in the divisions, brigades, columns, and guard units, while the garrison regiments in each county issued only 20,000 rounds of ammunition for each regiment. Second, 3,000 tons of artillery shells were mobilized and delivered to the front line, and all units of our military region are now fully capable of winning this battle with sufficient ammunition and high morale. ”

"What about the ammunition reserves, how long can they support the troops in hard battles, and how are the food and clothing reserves?" Han Yunhua asked again.

Han Yunhua knew very well that fighting a war was not only about weaponry and personnel quality, but also about the economy, and about logistics, and that the logistics were not guaranteed, and the best result was to fight guerrilla warfare like the Eighth Route Army in history. Therefore, before every battle, Han Yunhua must ensure the logistics as much as possible, otherwise it is easy to have fatal loopholes.

"Since the Baotou Arsenal was put into operation, we have implemented two shifts 24 hours a day, and people can rest, but the machine is not allowed to stop, so our ammunition reserves are quite sufficient, and it is no problem to ensure that the troops can use it for half a year. Although there is no problem with grain, although they are all coarse grains such as yams, sweet potatoes, and corn, it is still possible to ensure the food of the troops for a year, and although this year cannot be regarded as a bumper harvest year, these coarse grains with higher output do not have high requirements for the year, so this year there is a certain surplus in addition to the self-sufficiency of the base areas, and the soldiers and civilians in the base areas will not go hungry. However, the reserves of the clothing are a lot worse, due to the rapid expansion of our army's troops, the output of the clothing factory is just able to meet the needs of the troops, there is not much reserve at all, and now we only make two kinds of military uniforms, one is the traditional gray cloth military uniform. The other is the yellow-green camouflage uniform invented by the commander, and now all units are all camouflage uniforms except for the newly formed columns and county garrisons, so the uniform reserve is still poor. However, I will urge all factories to work overtime in the near future to ensure that all supplies are met during the battle. Yang Ruihua replied quickly. …,

Yang Ruihua's answer made Han Yunhua very satisfied, although it was important to be served, it could not affect the outcome of the battle after all, but it could be let go.

"Very good, the situation between the enemy and us is already very clear, in the eyes of the little devils, they are the weak with the strong, and in my opinion, they are small dishes sent to the door, since people are kind enough to send them to the door, if they don't eat, they will be punished by God. Now with our strength, we can play a big game with Binshan Yuan, but killing 10,000 enemies and injuring 8,000 ourselves, even if we win, it is not cost-effective, so I think our army should avoid the edge of the Japanese army, lure the enemy deep, and then concentrate on destroying one part of the army, and force the other parts of the Japanese army to come back to help. However, there is another problem in this way, that is, if the Japanese army continues to attack the interior of our base area regardless of it, then it is necessary for our troops who remain in the base area to have sufficient strength to block the Japanese army. I judge that the purpose of the Japanese army's attack on our army this time is not to completely annihilate our army, but to expel our army from the Beijing-Tianjin area, mainly to expel the main force of our army from the front line of Zhangjiakou, Tianzhen, and Yanggao, and it is best to annihilate our army's troops in eastern Hebei in one fell swoop. ”

"Binshan Yuan is not an idiot, he knows the strength of our military region, and he is not afraid of his North China Front at all, even if our Eighth Route Army does still have a big gap in weapons and ammunition, but as far as my Inner Mongolia Military Region is concerned, if General Binshan Yuan wants to defeat our army within three or two months, it is delusional, so I judge that he is just confusing our army's sight by making such a big noise, the actual goal of the devil is in eastern Hebei, but the soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, no matter what the Japanese army's final idea is, but our determination is not changeable. If you want to fight, you have to make achievements, and if you can't fight a battle, Han Yunhua will not take the time to figure it out. ”

As soon as Han Yunhua's words fell, Shen Yuquan said: "The commander's analysis is very reasonable, the Japanese army is not stupid, and it will not know that it is impossible to do it instead of doing it in vain." Now we roughly know that the direction of the Japanese army's attack is in the eastern Hebei area, but the strength of our army in eastern Hebei is not strong, except for the Eighth Brigade and the independent 77th Division, only the reinforced regiment of King Bao Yan is not bad, and the rest will not become a big climate, if the Japanese army has an infantry division, it is nothing, if the Japanese army sends three or four divisions to attack eastern Hebei at once, it will be troublesome, and the transfer of our army cannot be completed without half a month. ”

"It's not a big deal, aren't Li Dayong and Master Chen both in Jidong, originally they both wanted to come back to attend the meeting today, but it is not possible to go back and forth for seven or eight days on this way, what we lack now is time, so I didn't let him come back, but with him and the two of them guarding in Jidong, what else do we have to worry about." Han Yunhua said with a smile.

Zuo Quan also said: "Master Chen is a rare all-round talent in our army, in Chairman Mao's words, he is handsome, and the independent 77th Division and the Eighth Brigade are rare elites in our army, although the sum of one division and one brigade is only about 37,000 people, which is equivalent to two infantry divisions of the Japanese army with a three-unit system, but you must know that now Jidong is run by Master Chen and Li Dayong like an iron bucket, and there is also King Bao Yan to help support him, although Bao Sen's department is less than 5,000 people, but it is an officer trained by the commanderLast year alone, 121 cadres who graduated from military academies were assigned to Bao Sen's department, but Li Dayong was spoiled, and he said that I and the commander were unfair, so the strength of Bao Sen's department was not below that of an infantry brigade of the Japanese army, as long as the tactics were proper and made full use of the river, reed, and mountainous terrain in eastern Hebei, even the five divisions of the little devil faction might not be able to take much advantage. Commander, you say, how this battle should be fought, comrades listen to you. ”

"Political commissar, don't say that, you are an old cadre in the army, how should this battle be fought or let's discuss it together, right? A lot of words" Han Yunhua hurriedly said, he knew Zuo Quan's status in the army very well, besides, Zuo Quan and Master Chen were both his elders, if he acted arbitrarily, wouldn't it make these old cadres ugly? …,

It doesn't matter if Zuo Quan and others are hard to see, but if people go to the central side and say "disrespect for old cadres" and "arrogant, complacent, arbitrary, and arbitrary", it will be very uneconomical.

Zuo Quan looked at Han Yunhua as if he was a little restrained, and he also knew Han Yunhua's difficulties at this time, so he immediately got up and said loudly: "Comrades, when I came to our military region to take up my post, the chairman, Vice Chairman Zhou, and President Zhu all told me that in the military region, I only care about the life and ideological issues of the troops, and I have to listen to the commander in everything about specific battles. This battle has a bearing on the life and death of our military region and even the Communist Party of our Eighth Route Army, and there must be no sloppiness in the slightest, so the commander can not entrust the specific combat command to others. ”

Han Yunhua didn't know that this was Zuo Quan helping him further establish his prestige, and they both knew how important it was to have a united and cohesive collective. Han Yunhua is also a decisive person, Han Yunhua will not say words of gratitude, but he will really put it in his heart.

"Comrades, thank you for your trust in me Han Yunhua, I won't say anything else, I am here to assure you that in this battle, I will eat the two divisions of the devil as a gift to my soon-to-be-born baby. His father doesn't have any great skills, he just knows how to fight, and the devils of the two divisions can barely be a birth gift for my son. Now I order that the 1st Guard Brigade, the 2nd Brigade, and the 3rd Brigade be reorganized into the 1st Guard Division, with Guo Weidong, deputy director of the logistics department, as the commander of the division, and Li Jiaxiang as the political commissar. The 4th, 5th, and 6th Guards Brigades were reorganized into the Second Guard Division, with Comrade Ye Baoguo as the division commander and political commissar. The 1st and 2nd Columns of the Military Region were supplemented to the 8th Independent Brigade, and together with the 8th Independent Brigade, the First Field Division was formed, and the division commander was Li Dayong, the former commander of the 8th Independent Brigade. The 3rd, 4th, and 5th columns were combined into the Second Field Division, and the division commander was transferred by Wang Jian, and the political commissar was transferred from Zhang Mingliang. The Sixth Column, the Seventh Column, and the Eighth Column formed the Third Field Division, and the division commander and political commissar were Liu Mingyuan, director of education at the Saibei Command College. The 9th, 10th, and 11th columns formed the Fourth Field Division, and Shen Yuquan served as the division commander and political commissar. The 12th Column, the 13th Column, the Xinghe Garrison Regiment, the Fengzhen Garrison Regiment, the 1st Guard Regiment, the 2nd Guard Regiment, and the 3rd Guard Regiment formed the Fifth Field Division, and the division commander and political commissar was Comrade Yang Chengwu, the former political commissar of the 300th Division. The 1st Independent Cavalry Brigade, the 2nd Independent Cavalry Brigade, the 3rd Independent Cavalry Brigade, and the 4th Independent Cavalry Brigade form the cavalry division of the Inner Mongolia Military Region. And the main combat mission of the cavalry division was to deal with the cavalry groups of the Japanese army. It is no longer sufficient to deal with large-scale military units at the brigade level of Japanese devils, so starting now, our military region will implement a universal division-level establishment, and the entire military region will tentatively set up 11 divisions, that is, two integrated divisions, two guard divisions, one instructor, and five field divisions. At present, the 300th Division is on the front line of Tianzhen, Datong, and Fengzhen, the 77th Independent Division and the 1st Field Division are on the front line of Zhangjiakou and eastern Hebei, and the instructor is far away in southern Hebei, so I have decided to set up a former enemy command headquarters to fully command this operation, with me as the commander-in-chief of the former enemy, and Political Commissar Zuo and Comrade Yang Ruihua as deputy commanders-in-chief. Under the command, there is a command branch in eastern Hebei, and the commander-in-chief of the branch is Comrade Chen Geng, who has full command of all troops in eastern Hebei. At the same time, the Northern Hebei Command Division and the Southern Hebei Command Division and the Internal Security Command Division were also established. Comrade Yang Chengwu is fully responsible for the command branch in northern Shanxi and northern Hebei, and the command branch in southern Hebei is under my personal command. ”

"Now at the behest of our military order, the 1st Guard Division, the 1st Field Division, the 2nd Division, and the 3rd Division were immediately secretly transferred to eastern Hebei, and the main force of the 77th Independent Division and the 1st Field Division led by Comrade Li Dayong immediately shrank their forces to the rear, and ordered Comrade Chen Geng to immediately establish the headquarters of the former enemy in eastern Hebei, and to transfer the mechanized brigade and artillery brigade of the 300th Division to the command of Comrade Chen Geng. With five divisions, two other firepower brigades, two reinforced regiments, and a large number of local troops, the eastern Hebei region must completely annihilate a reorganized division and regiment of the Japanese army. The 5th Field Division, the 300th Reorganized Division, and the 4th Field Division went all out to attack the Japanese puppet positions on the front line of Datong and Weixian, maintaining strong military pressure and creating an illusion for the Japanese army that our army was desperate. The commander-in-chief of the internal security division is concurrently the political commissar, who directs all units such as the 2nd Guard Division, the garrison regiments of each county, independent companies, and district squads to defend the base area and prevent the sabotage of small units of the Japanese army and the sneak attack of paratrooper units. I will be fully responsible for the war of the command branch in southern Hebei, and I will give the party and the nation a satisfactory answer. In addition, the comrades of the logistics department were notified to urgently mobilize half of the ammunition in the inventory and send it to the head of the general headquarters, and then send 2 million rounds of ammunition each to the comrades of the Jizhong Military Region and the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region. They fought very their side, and our Communist Eighth Route Army was a whole, and we couldn't eat meat and gnaw bones and let our comrades drink soup. ”
