That night, the village chief Xu Youcai found Qiao Youhua, who was thinking of a name for his troops, with a sad face.

"Youhua, this team has grown a lot, but there are also dozens of more people to eat, the original twenty or so people are all young people from the village, and they can go home to solve the food problem after training.

But now there are more than 30 people, and every family in the village is not rich, and they have to pay rent to Guo Papi in the county seat, which is okay for three or two days, but if it takes a long time, I am afraid it will be difficult to supply. Xu Youcai was a little embarrassed when he spoke, after all, Qiao Youhua was kind to the entire village, especially their Xu family.

Qiao Youhua was interrupted from his train of thought, so he temporarily put down the issue of the number of the troops, and said with a pleasant smile: "Village chief, please rest assured, at most three or five days, I will solve the problem of food for the team, and I will compensate for all the amount of food in the village when the time comes."

In addition, please go and tell the people of Sù Village that from now on, the land you planted no longer has to pay rent to the previous landlord, and these lands no longer belong to any landlord's old wealth, but to the people of the whole village.

I only need to pay a certain amount of military rations to my anti-Japanese team according to the quality of the harvest, and as for what Guo picks the skin of the dog, I will solve it for you. ”

Xu Youcai's body trembled a little when he heard this: "Youhua, what you said is true?" Do you really want to give the land to the villagers? "I can't let Xu Youcai not be excited, in his inherent thoughts, even if Qiao Youhua has the strength to take away these fields from the landlord Lao Cai, it should be his own local owner, and he will lease it to the people to plant and collect his own rent.

How can the land be given to the common people for nothing?

You must know that in this year, having land means owning a qiē, as long as you work hard, you will definitely be able to live a good life, and depending on Qiao Youhua's meaning, the military rations paid will definitely be less than the rent handed over to the landlord.

Qiao Youhua said seriously: "Of course it's true, village chief, everyone should have a share in the land, and in the future, the land will be divided according to the population of each household, no matter how big or small, whether old or young, everyone has a share."

By the way, this method is not only applicable in our Zheng Village, but anyone who does not want to be tenants of those landlords and old wealth can all sign up with us, and turn to pay us military rations, and I will protect everyone from the oppression of the landlords and give them land. ”

"Good, good!" Xu Youcai praised excitedly and excitedly: "Once this news spreads, I think the fathers and villagers who are dozens of miles away will definitely respond and support it." ”

Qiao Youhua secretly said in his heart: Of course, this is the agrarian revolution that our party's ancestors have carried out a long time ago, and the Red Army can start from this.

Thinking of this, Qiao Youhua thought again, if he could get in touch with the Red Army, no, it should be the Eighth Route Army now, then he and his comrades-in-arms would have found an organization.

In their previous life, Qiao Youhua was a member of the Communist Party, so they naturally had a natural affinity for the Eighth Route Army.

Moreover, at this time, the Eighth Route Army led by the Communist Party was the most efficient and honest anti-Japanese force, and compared with the corruption within the Kuomintang, where factions fought openly and secretly, the Eighth Route Army was much more "pure".

The efficiency and ability of work are many times stronger than that of some Kuomintang troops.

If you can get in touch with the Eighth Route Army, you will be able to get their support, not to mention anything else, the political cadres alone are what they urgently need.

The political cadres of the Eighth Route Army were very powerful, and in the three-year civil war, the Kuomintang was driven out of the mainland with the strength of the weak enemy and the autumn wind sweeping away the leaves, and the new China was established.

To resist US aggression and aid Korea, millet plus rifles were hard to fight, and the 18-nation coalition led by the United States, which was fully equipped with the army, navy, and air force, had to sit down and shake hands.

On what basis? With firm political beliefs.

Chairman Mao once said that the biggest factor determining the victory or defeat of a war is not weapons, but people.

Why did the Kuomintang army, which had been repeatedly defeated in the civil war, surrender to the People's Liberation Army again, and in the blink of an eye, be able to fight the European and American coalition forces armed to the teeth on the battlefield to resist US aggression and aid Korea?

It is thanks to the outstanding transformation of the political work cadres of the Communist Party that they have the faith to fight for it, and thus they have the most amazing combat effectiveness!

The rise of the psyche is sometimes more powerful than any new weapon, and it is more terrifying for opponents.

Straight to the point.

Qiao Youhua also knew that it was not so easy to get in touch with the Eighth Route Army at the moment, and now that the War of Resistance had just begun, the main forces of the three most elite divisions of the Eighth Route Army should still be resisting Japan in Shanxi, and they had not yet scattered to establish an anti-Japanese base behind enemy lines.

Therefore, Qiao Youhua's top priority now is to solve the most fundamental problem of his own group first, that is, food and clothing.

The problem of food has been reflected by Xu Youcai just now, and the problem of clothing, whether it is the rescued miners or the recruits who enlisted in the village.

Most of them had only shabby clothes, and some did not even have shoes, which was common in this era of scarcity.

Without shoes and a decent military uniform, not only can cross-country and other training not be carried out, Qiao Youhua feels that his team is now like a flower child, which is really miserable.

In a hurry, Qiao Youhua immediately found Xu Jinshan, who was preparing dinner for the big guy with his daughter Yu'er.

When Xu Jinshan saw Qiao Youhua, he hurriedly learned the rules he had learned during the day and saluted him.

Qiao Youhua waved his hand and said, "Uncle Xu, I am your commander in the team, and in private we are uncles and nephews, I will ask you to understand the situation." ”

"Well, if you want to know anything, just ask, as long as I know." Xu Jinshan nodded happily.

Xu Yu'er is not an outsider, Qiao Youhua couldn't let her avoid it, so she opened her mouth and asked: "Uncle Xu, you have been in the county for a long time, do you know where the devil's munitions warehouse is?" In fact, Qiao Youhua also has the mentality of trying it out, after all, it is obviously a bit unreliable to ask a miner about the military stronghold of the devil.

But Xu Jinshan's answer greatly exceeded his expectations.

"I know, in the county seat, in several compounds in the east of the city, there are many devils and traitors." Xu Jinshan was more shrewd, and immediately asked, "Youhua, are you going to take the devil's supplies?" ”

"Well, that's the plan." As soon as Qiao Youhua heard that he was in the city, he knew that there was no play, and the only people under his command who had combat effectiveness were his soldier king team, and there were only four people with him.

Although the combat power is strong, it is impossible to rely on four people to go to the Japanese warehouse in the county town to grab supplies and come back, of course, if it is to attack the warehouse, such as burning it and blowing it up, it is not much of a problem.

"Then I have an idea, maybe I can help you grab the devil's military supplies." Just when Qiao Youhua was a little disappointed, Xu Jinshan suddenly said.

"What's the idea, tell me quickly." Qiao Youhua was taken aback and hurriedly asked.
