Chapter 784: Resettlement of refugees
Qiao Youhua saw that Liu Ruhan had finished tidying up, so he said loudly: "Come in." ”
"Yes!" Li Yansan responded to the call, handed the telegram to Qiao Youhua, straightened up and said: "Commander, Wan Hu has called, saying that the Germans have tasted the sweetness of the power of the new tank we designed for them.
Now, our agents in Tianjin have secretly contacted us and said that they would like to buy the design drawings of the advanced fighters and artillery you mentioned earlier.
Mr. Billy Lavis is already on his way to the base area, and he will negotiate with you in person, and Long Yingwei hereby calls in advance to inform you that you should be mentally prepared for it, Commander. ”
From beginning to end, Li Yansan didn't squint, as if he didn't see Liu Ruhan, who was standing not far from Qiao Youhua with a red face.
Qiao Youhua also happened to read the telegram, put it on the conference table, pondered for a while, and said to Li Yansan: "In this way, you immediately go and call back Brother Wan and tell him that Billy Lavis should not rush over, first find a way to get as many channels as possible to help us get a batch of Western medicine."
Especially anti-inflammatory drugs and painkillers, as many as you want, it is estimated that they are unlikely to get food, the gold of war, so let's get more Western medicine.
I won't let them give it away for nothing, this is also a sign of sincerity that wants to cooperate with us further, just send it out, Billy Lavis will understand. ”
Qiao Youhua understands that the Dragon's Tooth Base is now short of food, medicine, and materials, and there are many difficulties, so as soon as there is an opportunity, he will never let it go, and it is the same to solve the same problem first.
Li Yansan hurriedly stepped forward and saluted again: "Yes." Then he turned around and took the order to leave.
After seeing Li Yansan leave, Qiao Youhua said to Liu Ruhan, who was still a little embarrassed: "Ruhan, now that our base area has been expanded to Cangzhou, the first line between the rivers, we can organize the refugees stranded in the hinterland of our base area to return to their hometowns to live, so that we can reduce some pressure." ”
Liu Ruhan was a little embarrassed: "Now that the people are short of food and clothing, it may be very difficult for them to trek hundreds of miles back to their original residence, even if the people want to go back, these hundreds of miles are not as simple as dozens of miles, eating and drinking along the way are problems, not to mention relying on their legs to walk back." ”
Qiao Youhua said: "Don't worry about this, I have decided that I will order the whole army, as well as all the militia units in the base area, to provide assistance to the refugees along the way, including food and drink, escort and rescue, etc."
、
In any case, as long as they are willing to go home, we will escort them back safely and smoothly, so that they can return to their original hometowns to live and work in peace and contentment.
For the time being, we will first solve the problem of food and drink for the people, and when the refugees return to their hometowns, we will quickly let the local political cadres organize the people to resume production and replant autumn grain, and we will definitely be able to get through this winter with our concerted efforts. ”
"Moreover, when there is hope, people will burst out with amazing willpower, and going home is the most powerful motivation for the majority of refugees."
"Well, I'll listen to you, I'll do it." Liu Ruhan nodded his head, turned around and walked two steps, then suddenly turned around, and said charmingly: "Don't go tonight, wait for me in the room." ”
Little Bie is better than a newlywed! Qiao Youhua sighed in his heart, nodded with a smile, and Liu Ruhan turned to leave. 、
After Liu Ruhan left, it didn't take long for Zheng Yunshan to rush in, came to Qiao Youhua and saluted him: "Commander, the troops have been settled, are there any tasks to be handed over to the lowly position?" ”
Qiao Youhua lit a cigarette and said: "There is a task, but not now, the guard regiment continues to march and fight, and the soldiers of the whole regiment are working very hard, give the soldiers a holiday, you have a good rest today."
I estimate that from tomorrow onwards, there will be refugees willing to return to their hometowns, and at that time, the guard corps will also be responsible for escorting a group of refugees back to their hometowns. ”
When Zheng Yunshan heard this, he said: "Commander, our guard regiment is not tired, if there is a task, leave it to us now." ”
Qiao Youhua nodded approvingly and said, "Your idea is good, but the plan to mobilize the people to return to their original places of origin has just been decided, and at least tomorrow will be responded."
Therefore, today you still have time to rest and recuperate, the soldiers have been fighting with me in the north and south, long journeys, and fatigue is not to mention, so it is not possible to continue in the long run.
Therefore, today I grant you a day off, to combine work and rest, to recharge your energy, so that tomorrow you can better carry out the task of escorting refugees! ”
"Yes, then I thank the commander on behalf of the comrades of the whole regiment." Zheng Yunshan Road.
"You kid, what's polite to me, maybe I haven't seen my family for a long time, go back and accompany them." Qiao Youhua said with a smile.
"Yes!" Zheng Yunshan was overjoyed, and after saluting, he scratched his head and turned away with a smile.
…………
Beiping City, the headquarters of the Japanese invasion of China.
In his anxious waiting, Tada finally waited for a reply from the front and a new chief of staff appointed to him by the base camp.
"Your Excellency Commander, with the rank of lieutenant general, was the chief of staff of the Shanghai Dispatch Army and the Central China Front Army of the Chinese Theater of the Great Japanese Empire. This time, on the order of the base camp, I came to the North China Front Army to serve as the chief of staff, please take care of me! Mamoru Iizawa, who was in a straight military uniform and had a dignified face, first saluted and reported to Tadajun.
Then, he respectfully handed the telegram in his hand to Tada Jun, and said: "This is a telegram from the 14th Division from the front line that the General Staff Department received just now, please read it!" ”
Tada Jun praised Mamoru Iizawa's attitude of not being arrogant or impatient, neither humble nor arrogant, and after saluting in return, he reached out and took the message and read it again, relieving his heart.
"Your Excellency General, the intelligence shows that after the Longya Column of China occupies Cangzhou and Hejian, it has no intention of continuing to go north, it seems that we can rest assured for a while." Mamoru Iizawa took the initiative to speak.
Tada Jun put down the telegram, nodded and said: "Yes, it seems that the people of China have also reached the stage of exhaustion, otherwise, the situation will continue to deteriorate, and the consequences will be unimaginable!" ”
Iizawa Shou said: "In the words of the Chinese, after capturing Cangzhou and other places, Qiao Youhua's dragon tooth column is already the end of the strong crossbow, so there is no need to be afraid!" ”
Tada Jun said: "Not enough to be afraid? Chief of Staff Iizawa doesn't think you seem to be underestimating the Dragon's Tooth Column? ”
Iizawa said: "Yes, Your Excellency General, I am indeed underestimating my opponent. ”
The only good impression that Tada Jun had just now suddenly dissipated and became invisible, and he snorted coldly: "Iizawa-kun, don't be too arrogant, as far as I know, during the Battle of Nanjing, it was Qiao Youhua's Dragon Tooth Column that caused great damage to the Shanghai Dispatch Army you served.
Only then did the Nanjing Raiders campaign fail to achieve the strategic goal, and in the end, the imperial army paid a heavy price, but only got an empty city of Nanjing!
This is regarded as the greatest shame of the Imperial Army! Isn't such an opponent still worthy of your attention? ”
In the last sentence, Tada Jun, who had suppressed his anger for many days, almost roared out, so the voice was very loud, and several devil staff officers outside were frightened, and they sweated for the new chief of staff.
Iizawa Mamoru didn't show much fear, but said very calmly: "Your Excellency General, please calm your anger, you can't deny it, what you just said is all true, but the humble position still does not regard the Dragon Tooth Column as the real opponent of the imperial army.
I mean, strategically contempt them, tactically value them! Study them and thus destroy them! ”
Tada Jun said with some disdain: "Destroy them? How easy is it to say? If they were so easy to eliminate, you and my predecessors would not have died, and they would have been dismissed. ”
Iizawa said: "General, there is no invincible army in this world, but there is no right tactic and the right time and opportunity. ”
Tada Jun wanted to laugh a little angrily, he didn't know the confidence that Mamoru Iizawa had brought, but this kind of determination and self-confidence, or arrogance, made him, the commander of the front army who had just suffered defeat, very uncomfortable and unhappy.
Laughing angrily, he said in a deep voice, "Oh? Chief of Staff Iizawa seems to be quite sure that he will be able to defeat the Dragon's Tooth Column? I don't know what the plan is, but speaking out and listening to it will give me a long insight! ”
Iizawa Shou straightened up and said without humility or arrogance: "Yes, Your Excellency General, when I went to work this time, I did think of a way to deal with Qiao Youhua's Dragon Tooth Column. ”
"Say!" Tada Jun roared.
"General, please come out with the lowly officer!" Iizawa Mamoru sold Guan Zi and said sideways.
Tada Jun glanced at him, suppressed his anger and said, "Iizawa-kun, I hope you'd better let me see something, otherwise I will ask the base camp to help me change to a more practical chief of staff!" ”
Iizawa Shou said: "Please rest assured, go out with the humble post to have a look, and know yourself!" ”
Tada Jun snorted coldly and walked out of the office, and Mamoru Iizawa followed with a meteor in stride, leading him out of the headquarters and up to an attic.
Behind the attic is an open space requisitioned by the Japanese army, which has now become one of the playgrounds for the devils in the city, and is used for assembly and training in peacetime.
At this moment, there are about 500 devil soldiers standing on the playground, all of them are tall and burly, of course, compared to the average short devil.
What's more, they wore military uniforms of a slightly different color from ordinary Japanese soldiers, and the steel helmets on their heads were also different, except that they were not reflective in the sun, and there was a brown nylon net on them.
These Japanese soldiers were well-equipped and neatly groomed, invisibly revealing an awe-inspiring murderous aura.
Tada Jun saw the difference between them at a glance, and said in surprise: "This is that team?" They should all be elite veterans, right? Iizawa-kun, just let me see this? ”
Iizawa Mamoru nodded and said: "That's right, this team came by sea with the lowly position, and they are the ones the most elite ace troops in the Imperial Army that the lowly duty wants you to see, there is no one!" ”
