The meeting was held in the afternoon, and on Tuesday the dog thought much clearer, and studied item by item according to the outline summarized by Wang Ziwei.

1. Grain protection battle plan:

Wu Mujun now controls most of the county seats and towns in 10 counties, including Jurong, Liyang, Jintan, Yixing, Changxing, Danyang, Gaochun, Langxi, Lishui, and Guangde, covering an area of tens of thousands of square kilometers, a population of several million, and tens of millions of acres of fertile land. However, although the Wu Mu army is well-armed, it is far inferior to the devils in heavy weapons such as aircraft, tanks, and artillery, which is not conducive to fighting hard with the devils. does not compete with devils for territory, only for the purpose of effectively killing devils; does not make every effort to stop the devils from grabbing grain, but only fights the devils with all their strength to transport grain, so that the devils cannot transport food away; Organize and mobilize the people in various places to prepare cellars, caves and other grain storage sites, quickly harvest and store, and fortify the wall carts, carts and other grain transportation tools; Fighting on the plains, there are few shelters, and a number of dual-use facilities are prepared, which can be used by the people and can also play the role of concealed fortifications; Therefore, the soldiers must learn to drive big carts or cars, and prepare to rob the devil's grain convoy; Preparing a bamboo skewer minefield is still effective for a large number of grain transport teams of devils; preparation of anti-tank mines, defense against Japanese tanks; ……

This plan was fully responsible for Zhao Dahu, the commander-in-chief of the Wu Mu Army.

2. Personnel selection and adjustment:

While preparing for war, all units transferred turners, fitters, riveters, welders, electricians and other skilled workers, including blacksmiths and carpenters, to Shujintang; Masons and builders were assigned to Wang Laodun; Cooks, waiters, barbers, veterinarians, accountants, all kinds of small businesses, and other craftsmen were transferred to Zhou Yuzi; The transfer of culture above middle school was transferred to Ouyang City; The rest of the soldiers are classified according to shooting, bomb throwing, stabbing, courage, physical strength, climbing, and swimming, and those who are excellent in shooting are allocated to Xiang Qingyun; All the recruits who had been trained for less than two months were transferred to Wang Laodun's engineering brigade.

3. Material preparation: Each ministry will need or think that there will be a classified list of materials needed, and report it to Qi Yuankai, who will negotiate, plan and solve it in conjunction with the ministries; All combat units shall be fully equipped with weapons and equipment, and shall carry out inspections, repairs, and maintenance; All logistics departments are ready to be fed, equipped, and ready to support the operation.

Fourth, the construction of fortifications: Wang Laodun's engineer brigade is responsible. Priority is given to the construction of brick kilns and lime kilns at various strategic points, and the corresponding underground tunnels are built, so as to supply people from all over the country to repair houses and other facilities on the one hand, and to serve as wartime fortresses on the other hand; In addition, trenches are dug at appropriate locations, then backfilled and marked for easy excavation in case of war. The permanent fortifications of Xishan will be discussed after the war.

Fifth, the training system of the troops should be edited and examined as soon as possible, and in connection with this preparation for war, training should be carried out while preparing for war. The cultural and educational system was completed in the troops in leisure time, while giving priority to the use of literate soldiers; Folk culture education first set up various lecture halls, primary schools, and private schools in Xishan and the surrounding areas.

6. Improve the war mobilization system. Relevant personnel of the New Fourth Army were invited to assist in the planning and implementation. First, young men from villages and towns were organized, lightly disabled veterans were selected for simple training, and incentive programs were designed.

After the meeting was adjourned, Zhao Dahu immediately deployed a preparation plan. First, the personnel selected by the staff committee will be transferred out to replenish the new recruits. Then the units demarcate the combat area, organize the equipment, and inspect the terrain.

Every day, all units get up at 6 a.m. in the form of an emergency assembly; Then march about 20 kilometers in various marching formations, go out of scouts, arrange guards, containment teams, and arrange attacks and air defense ...... in the middle; Camping on the spot: arranging guard guards, setting up obstacles, and building fortifications......; Eat lunch; Then there is two hours of literacy and counting time, and if you can read 20 words, you will be rewarded with an egg, and if you know how to count to 100, you will be rewarded with an egg,...... In short, as long as there is progress, an egg is rewarded; In the afternoon, there are training ...... queues, shooting, stabbing, bomb throwing, fortifications, and other tactical movements, and in the later stage, offensive and defensive tactical formation drills and some guerrilla tactical drills are arranged. Then there is physical training: push-ups, frog jumps, ingots ......; Eat dinner; uprooting the camp and restoring it to its original state; A rapid march of 20 kilometers at night, interspersed with attacks, surprise attacks, and ...... of passing; Camp at night, do not speak out, and do not harass the ...... of the people; Along the way, you must also learn to understand military orders, military horns, military posts, and read flags and flags...... All officers and men were stripped of a "thin skin". The reason why it is said to be "thin skin" is that the amount of training is extremely large, and the content is complicated; they do not eat in the morning, eat dinner early, and the hungry officers and men have white faces and fluttering feet between dinner and lunch...... It doesn't have to be meat, and the officers and soldiers are not picky eaters, because most families eat meat during the New Year's holidays, and if there is meat all of a sudden, it is the life of the big rich or the loser, and the little rich man is not willing to eat it like this!

During the nearly one-month training, the officers and men were all miserable and tired, but their faces were full of red light, their clothes were ragged, and their spirits were full of energy, and their physical fitness and combat quality were completely improved.

The busiest is Wang Laodun. Under the deployment arrangements of the General Staff Headquarters, he first organized personnel to calibrate the strategic points, and then organized the local people to build brick kilns and lime kilns and dig "water canals."

Because of the invasion of the devils, many people's houses were damaged to varying degrees, so they really needed a lot of masonry and lime to repair. And Wang Laodun and they built brick kilns and lime kilns to meet the needs of the people, and the people actively supported them.

In addition to the conventional size, there is a kind of brick that is much larger than the original normal brick in length, width and thickness, and such bricks are much more convenient in handling and construction, but it is difficult to fire and not easy to burn through. This is not difficult for Wang Laodun, he has seen all kinds of bricks in many ancient tombs, and knows what to do. He mixed some coal dust into the brick mud and burned it inside and out, and the bricks were large and strong.

After the bricks were burned, Wang Laodun led people to ask the people to dig cellars to store grain. The climate in southern Jiangsu is humid, and the grain in the cellar is easy to mold and deteriorate.

Wang Laodun also "had nothing to do" and looked for a number of ownerless houses for the troops to station. Some of these ownerless houses were emptied by devils, and some were emptied by families. Wang Laodun received the ocean and gold bars handed over by some soldiers, which they had picked up in the ownerless house. Wang Laodun had an idea, and immediately arranged for someone to go to Qi Yuankai to withdraw 10 mine detectors, organize the soldiers who handed in gold bars and the ocean, and led the team faithfully and reliably, quietly use mine detectors in the courtyards of ownerless houses (especially large households) to search for the gold and silver treasures buried by these people.

The Suwu area was already wealthy, and the businessmen and wealthy people were much richer than elsewhere. Over the course of a month, Wang Laodun collected more than 20,000 taels of gold, more than 600,000 taels of silver, more than 10 million pieces of ocean, and a number of other jewelry and antiques for Wu Mujun. On Tuesday, the dog received these belongings and didn't know whether to take them, so he discussed them with Zhao Dahu and Shi Jilun.

"Although it is not suitable, these properties are not emergency life-saving money, we need these properties to support the war, let's take them and use them first, even if the original owner has contributed to the anti-Japanese resistance!" Zhao Dahu made a decision.

"Yes, if you let the devil take it away, you will become an enemy!" Shi Jilun also agreed.

"Okay, that's it!" Tuesday Dog also made up his mind, "Also, Wang Laodun didn't swallow it privately, shouldn't it be rewarded?" ”

"It's rewarded, but don't make it clear, it's not good for people to know!" Shi Jilun preemptively said that he was afraid that Zhao Dahu would say something inappropriate, and he would not be able to refute it, after all, Zhao Dahu was a respected commander-in-chief, but he was really not good at dealing with this kind of problem.

"yes, that's the question of how to reward?" Zhao Dahu also agreed.

"Let him pick a few antiques, he likes this, and then give him a good horse, and give Wang Laodun according to the standard of one gold bar per person, let him watch it!" Tuesday the dog decides.

"It's not proper," Shi Jilun and Tuesday Dog didn't pay much attention to the way they spoke, "It's better to let his people set up a mine-sweeping platoon, and then give them some motorcycles, and then give them a truck, rightly speaking, of course, give gold bars and antique photos, but you have to give them secretly!" ”

"Okay! Or Brother Shi is careful, in this way, it will be convenient to transport things if there are good things in the future! "Tuesday the dog was rejoicing.

Wang Laodun was rewarded and only smiled slightly. He was originally very wealthy, and he didn't care about the amount of money, and he lived this kind of outlaw life with Tuesday Dog, just because he was like-minded. He bought a cart of roast chicken, pig's trotters, smoked fish, bacon, and a few jars of old wine out of his own pocket, and asked the brothers who digg up the treasure to eat for a few days, telling everyone that the bounty would not be distributed until after the war, and that if they did not work well, they would be confiscated. Then he took the brothers with them to repair the fortifications again.

Wang Laodun's fortifications are very particular: there are hidden tunnels in the brick kiln and lime kiln, which lead to 500 meters away, so that their own people can retreat if they are surrounded, and if the devils occupy it, they can sneak attack through the tunnel; The trenches were dug into the form of canals, and anti-artillery holes, hidden soldier holes, supply posts, ambulance posts, and command posts were also hidden, and secret notes were made; The common people's homes were also guided by the sappers to repair the hiding holes, hidden holes, and grain storage holes, some of the grain holes were dug a few, and some were dug in multiple layers, so as not to let the devils search for all the grain, and the walls of the caves were lined with oilcloth given by Wu Mujun to prevent the grain from getting damp, and the Tibetan caves had ventilation holes. Of course, Wang Laodun did not work for the people in vain, and the people also helped Wang Laodun repair their fortifications.

Ouyang Cheng sent literate soldiers and various instructors with special skills to each platoon. Arrange special time to teach soldiers to read and count. A soldier who reads 20 words a day is rewarded with an egg, a soldier who recognizes 150 words for ten days is rewarded with an egg, a soldier who can read a thousand words is rewarded with a roast chicken or pig's trotters, and the same is true for arithmetic......; There are also shooting instructors, stabbing instructors, bomb throwing instructors, platoon instructors, individual technical instructors, tactical instructors, engineer instructors, physical fitness instructors, marching instructors, camping instructors, military order instructors, night combat instructors, and sparring instructors...... In short, the training of recruits, veterans, and squad leaders has been carried out in an all-round way, and the training of various units has been completely reborn.

All this cost Wu Mujun a lot of ocean, grain, eggs, meat, military uniforms, and ammunition, and the faces of Zhou Dog, Zhao Dahu, Shi Jilun, Lu Yuxi and others were all green, only Zhou Yuzi was fine, and happily sent chickens, ducks, and fish to the front line, and comforted other leaders: "If these little cubs are trained to be fine, how many little devils will they have to kill, and how many good things will they rob little devils?" ”

Wake up the dreamer in a word! Instead of saving most of the bullets on the battlefield for the foolish soldiers to waste, it is better to use most of the bullets to train the elite soldiers, and use a small number of bullets to solve the devils, which can reduce a large number of casualties. On Tuesday, Gou and Zhao Dahu immediately asked Xiang Qingyun and Ouyang Cheng: As long as the ammunition plan can be guaranteed, the soldiers should be fully trained as much as possible, especially shooting, lying down, kneeling, standing, hitting left and right moving targets, downrushing moving targets, upward moving targets, forward moving targets, and retreating moving targets, and each subject should be divided into three times according to the number of 5-3-2 to shoot 10 bullets.

Now Qi Yuankai is gone: Where does Wu Mujun have such a thick family background? Bullets, no!

It made Tuesday Dog and Zhao Dahu very embarrassed, to be honest, they didn't know Wu Mujun's exact family background. However, this matter can't be hidden from Shi Jilun, but Shi Jilun believes that Tuesday Dog and Zhao Dahu's idea is completely correct, but if it is implemented in a short period of time, Wu Mujun's ammunition reserves will definitely be greatly damaged, so it should be planned in detail. So he found some people and had a small meeting.

Ouyang Cheng said that all ministries can implement it in batches in a planned way to open the ammunition consumption cycle.

Xiang Qingyun said that shooting requires talent, and those with good gun sense can be selected and assigned to combat units, and those with poor gun sense can be assigned to second- and third-line units such as engineers and transportation. The specific methods are: 1. Veterans who have participated in more than three battles and who have meritorious service in killing the enemy will not participate in the selection. 2. The veterans who are participating in the election are based on the 100-meter chest ring target, and each of the nine shooting subjects is shot with one shot, and those who have more than 5 shots are exempt from training. 3. Recruit selection, 100-meter chest ring target, the first hitter focuses on screening and training snipers and sharpshooters; The second hit is shortlisted, focusing on riflemen and machine gunners; Others, 3 out of 5 shots were shortlisted; The remaining soldiers were assigned to the second-line troops; Fourth, with the deepening of training, layer by layer selection. 5. The selection criteria are controlled internally and must not be made public.

"How? It won't cost you a lot of bullets, will it? Shi Jilun asked Qi Yuankai.

"If you can't shoot, won't you be eliminated if you throw bombs and fight hard?" Qi Yuankai regretted that he was eliminated again, which shows that he is a layman in training.

"Don't worry, Lao Qi! The bomb is accurate, and the marksmanship of the stabbing soldier is not much worse? Let's get a layman! Xiang Qingyun glanced at Qi Yuankai, he was very dissatisfied with Qi Yuankai's collision with Tuesday Dog and Zhao Dahu.

"Then you don't have to waste bullets to participate in the selection if you throw bombs accurately and fight well?" Qi Yuankai has a new idea of being a fan of money.

"By the way, it turns out that Liu Qinghe's crossbow team also has a batch of hard crossbows, which can also be tested, anyway, the sense of direction and accuracy of the bow and crossbow and the gun are the same." Shi Jilun remembered the remaining materials in the warehouse.

"Recruits can use their bows and crossbows to sharpen their heads!" Qi Yuan Kaile is happy, happy crazy!

"And the militia!" Qi Yuankai and Shi Jilun spoke in unison.

"And so many people!" At this time, Tong Hai interjected. "Let's use retired wounded soldiers to set up stalls in various market towns---- compare archery, 100-meter chest target, 10 shots of 10 chest targets will be rewarded with 1 egg, those with red hearts will be rewarded with one egg per arrow, 10 shots of 10 chest target red hearts, and the prize will be a chicken. Five eldest sons can shoot 10 arrows. What do you think? It can not only make a fortune for the disabled soldiers, but also inspire the common people to practice archery, and the recruits recruited in the future are all sharpshooters, I asked Shu Jintang to produce a batch of hard crossbows to sell in the market! Tong Hai's introduction was triumphant.

"Profiteers! Definitely a profiteer! Everyone pointed to Tong Hai.

As a result, there were many disabled veterans in the market towns who set up stalls to shoot arrows. People can also sponsor some business for disabled veterans, and can also win some lottery heads, people have tried, and soon formed an atmosphere, and the difficulty of the competition is getting higher and higher, the red heart shrinks to the size of a copper coin, and the lottery head rises to a cow. Many people buy hard crossbows and go home to practice, ready to win a cow. Later, it was easy for archery masters to find their daughters-in-law. Moreover, Wu Mujun's primary school has set up slingshot classes, and competitions are held every 10 days, and the top three shooters can get 3-1 egg. This laid the foundation for the Wu Mu army to produce a large number of sharpshooters.

Of course, Shu Jintang had to open a special workshop for the production of hard crossbows. This thing is much better than guns, and there are a large number of bamboos as raw materials to supply recruits, a steady stream, supply to the market, and a lot of money.

Zhao Dahu's desperate mobilization of troops, Wang Laodun's construction with great fanfare, the Japanese army also discovered it from the plane, but they couldn't see it clearly, so they had to send multiple secret agents, and they were captured by the ears and eyes arranged by Shi Jilun and Ouyang Cheng.

Shunroku Hata learned that Wu Mujun had already prepared to protect food, so he had to grab it. Because of the strategic location and grain output in the southern Jiangsu plain, Hata Junroku had to seize southern Jiangsu and give Wu Mujun a go. Of course, the premise is to plan and prepare in detail.

This has already freed up time for Tuesday Dog and others to do a lot of things.
