In the early hours of the morning, Wang Haitao, who was guarding the command post, got a report from the soldiers, and the detachment that left to fight the blockade came back, Wang Haitao went to see it in person, and knew that the blockade detachment did not exchange fire with the Japanese reinforcements in Xuancheng, when they saw the fire in the direction of the stronghold, the reinforced Japanese troops in Xuancheng had not yet reached their blocking position, Liu Yi ordered a retreat, so the soldiers of the detachment withdrew to Yangliu Town without firing a shot.

Everyone rested in Yangliu Town for a day, and only returned to Jingxian County at noon the next day. Wang Haitao went out for two months this time, and when he came back, there were obvious changes in Xianjing County. There was a noticeable increase in the number of pedestrians on the streets, and most of them were in a hurry, and there were more customers in the shops, like grocery stores.

After Wang Haitao returned to Jing County, he did not care about resting, and immediately convened a meeting of the chief officials of all departments of the brigade, and Wang Daoyuan, the head of Jing County, was also invited to attend. At the beginning of the meeting, all departments reported to Wang Haitao on their work in the past two months, and the most important conscription work had been basically completed. The Independent Regiment was again expanded by two battalions with a total of 1,500 soldiers, and the reconnaissance regiment and the guard regiment were each expanded by one battalion, but the training was only beginning to bear fruit.

As for the people's livelihood, the county magistrate Wang reported: "Now that all the grain in Jing County has been harvested in the afternoon season, according to the tax rate of the Republic of China, 5 million catties of grain have been levied. The food gap in the county is still very large. In addition, in the past two months, thirteen new workshops of various kinds have been opened in the county, and in addition, the army has recruited a large number of young and strong people, and the county's labor force has been insufficient. ”

Wang Haitao had never had any experience in managing a county seat before, and when he was in Longzhou County, he was only in charge of the affairs of the security corps, and rarely interfered in local affairs. Therefore, Wang Haitao can only put the local authorities aside in advance, and wait for a few days to discuss with people from the business community.

After the meeting, Wang Haitao learned a little about the affairs of Jing County and the troops in the past two months. He called for Li Yuanhong, deputy brigade commander, and Wei Changhai, director of the logistics department, and first came to the warehouse, found a warehouse, and put down the munitions, supplies, and oil brought back from the storage ring. I heard that Wei Changhai didn't have much money here, so he gave Wei Changhai 200,000 yuan.

The ocean used in the army is very good, which also makes various businesses very welcome, and now as long as Wei Changhai says that the army needs something, some merchants take the initiative to send it to the door. Not only that, the military discipline of the soldiers of the Independent Brigade is also excellent, whether it is consumption or shopping, it is cash, and there is basically no credit, so the people wearing military uniforms in Jing County are the most popular people, which is also one of the reasons why the recruitment is very smooth.

The things were put down, and the money was handed over to Wei Changhai, and Wang Haitao mentioned to the two about building a regular hospital. If you want to build a regular hospital, it is not difficult to choose a location, the key is the construction and future operation. There will be a house here, and it's okay to build a house, but it's difficult for them to build a building. The three-story building of the telegraph office, the tallest building in Jing County, was built by someone from Wuhu.

This is completely different from Wang Haitao's idea, but now it is impossible to invite people from Wuhu again, and even if you invite people, what will you let people use to build buildings without steel and cement? Don't forget that Jing County is still under the blockade of the Japanese army. In desperation, Wang Haitao could only find a place to build more bungalows to make a hospital.

In the next few days, Wang Haitao spent time in the grassroots company to observe the training of the troops. Not to mention that the source of soldiers recruited by Jing County is really good, and a small half of them have gone to private schools or have some culture. As for the body, it is even better, usually climbing the mountain and working every day makes these young men not only have good health but also good foot strength, and it is very easy to climb the mountains and mountains.

As for the recruits of the reconnaissance battalion and the guard battalion, they were even more selected from the recruits, and there was nothing to say about the conditions in all aspects. In addition to observation, Wang Haitao also personally guided the training of recruits from the reconnaissance battalion and the guard battalion, and more than a dozen good seedlings emerged from them. Among them, there are two original Orion children, who are even more top-notch.

These two are cousins, one named Wang Dashan is the elder brother, and the other is named Wang Xiaoshan is the younger brother. These two have been learning to hunt with their grandfather since they were children, and their grandfather is a famous hunter in ten miles and eight towns. The two are not only very proficient in surviving in the wild, hiding and stealing, but also have good marksmanship. After entering the army, after training for a period of time, he was able to hit a wine bottle 300 meters away with a Type 38 rifle.

After Wang Haitao inspected the two, he personally handed over two German-made Mauser 98K sniper rifles equipped with scopes to the two brothers, and kept them by his side to personally guide them. Wang Haitao wanted to train the two brothers to become snipers like Tang Yun and Tang Shu. For the sake of the two brothers, Tang Xiaoshan had to grind ten more sniper rifles with scopes from Wang Haitao before he was willing to release them.

A few days later, at Wang Haitao's request, Wang Daohui, the county magistrate, invited some well-known people in the county's industrial and commercial circles to the county government. Naturally, the atmosphere of this meeting was much better than that of the first meeting, and through several months of contact, these people also understood what kind of person Wang Haitao was and what kind of troops were stationed in Jing County.

So when County Magistrate Wang Daoyuan announced the meeting, Wang Haitao didn't gossip too much, and said directly: "Everyone, I invite you here today because I want to discuss a few things with you. The first thing is the food problem in Jing County. As the old saying goes, 'the people take food as the sky', we all know that Jing County has been a county with insufficient food for many years, and now Jing County is facing the blockade of the Japanese, and it is more difficult to transport the grain from outside, how to solve the problem of food shortage in Jing County, is the first problem to consider, what do you have any ideas about this, you might as well talk about it. ”

Wang Haitao's words caused everyone to discuss, and after a while, a middle-aged man in a cyan robe stood up and said: "Commander Wang, a certain is the shopkeeper of a business name in the four seas, surnamed Zhang, named Zhang Ziliang. My Sihai firm has always been mainly engaged in grain business in Jing County. To tell Commander Wang, my merchants from all over the world have branches in Hunan, Hubei, Jiangxi and other places, and every year they also transport a large amount of grain from these places to the mountainous areas of southern Anhui. But today, the grain is piled up in Jiangxi, and it can't be transported at all. At the beginning of the month, I tried to bring in two truckloads of grain, but I was detained by the Japanese as I passed through Wuhu. I can't help it!"

After listening to this, Wang Haitao asked: "Are you transporting grain by water? How did it be detained by the Japanese?" Zhang Ziliang replied: "Commander Wang doesn't know that most of the roads in our Jingxian County are mountain roads, and it is inconvenient to transport goods, so bulk goods are transported in and out through the Qingyi River. As soon as my second shipload of grain was transferred from the Yangtze River to the Qingyi River, I encountered a steamboat patrolling the river, and the Japanese army detained it on the spot as soon as they saw that it was grain on board. ”

Wang Haitao asked: "Where are the Japanese steamboats patrolling? Are there a large number of patrol boats?" Zhang Ziliang replied: "Commander Wang, the Japanese steamboats all patrol the water surface of Wuhu, and there is only one steamboat at a time, but now the number of patrols has increased, and even the steamboats patrol at night when they were not patrolling before. Zhang Ziliang's words made other bosses discuss: "Yes, if this little Japanese patrol ship is going to meet, then it will be empty of both people and money." "Who said no, last time I met Little Japan with a boatload of cloth, not only was the cloth gone, but the two guys were also killed by Little Japan, which made me lose a lot of money. ”

In the discussion of everyone, Wang Haitao thought for a while and said: "Don't worry, everyone, I will find a way to do this, in order for Jing County to survive, opening up trade routes is the only way." Now let me talk about the second thing, that is, the matter of education, as far as I know, there were several primary schools and a middle school in Jing County, and after the Japanese occupied Jing County, the school was closed. Now that Jing County is under the management of the national government, these schools and middle schools still have to open.

My suggestion is that children who can go to school should go to school as much as possible, and that all school fees that used to be paid are now waived. I will take out a sum of money to pay for all the expenses of these primary schools and middle schools, but this is everyone's business in Jing County, so when the school and middle schools go to the merchants to purchase, please don't go too far. County Magistrate Wang, please report to me the monthly expenses of these schools as soon as possible, so that I can allocate them to the county government and let the children go to school as soon as possible. ”

When Wang Haitao asked why these children didn't go to school, some children said that the school was closed, and more children said that they couldn't afford to go to school because they didn't have the money to go to school. Therefore, Wang Haitao wants these children to go to school for free, and as for the cost of several schools, it is not worth mentioning for Wang Haitao now.

Wang Haitao's words caused everyone to shake again, and an old man got up and said: "Commander Wang can be said to have made great achievements, and he can take care of the education of a county child with his own strength, which really makes the old man admire." However, this is a matter for everyone in Jing County, how can Commander Wang bear it by himself, and the old man is not willing to show his gratitude for 1,000 yuan. With the old man taking the lead, everyone donated one after another, for a time this five hundred, that one thousand.

Wang Haitao said: "Okay! Jing County is worthy of being a place of humanity, I have understood your intentions, so we set up an education foundation, elect a person with high expectations as the president, and then elect two people as directors, and jointly manage the funds donated for the education of all parties?" Wang Haitao's proposal was unanimously approved, and finally the first old man to donate money, named Qian Yuzhi, was elected as the president, and two directors were elected, and a donation of 14,600 yuan was received on the spot. In the end, Wang Haitao donated 10,000 yuan of the ocean, and said that he would make up for the shortcomings, and this matter could be regarded as settled.
