Chapter 438: Facing a Problem
Back in the bedroom, Mao Tou was taken away by the nurse, and there were only Feng Gu and Wang Haitao in the house, Feng Gu couldn't hold back anymore, and threw herself into Wang Haitao's arms. Hugging the beloved woman in his arms, Wang Haitao's strong heart can't help but turn into finger tenderness. Wang Haitao couldn't help lowering his head and kissed Aunt Feng's soft lips affectionately.
After a long time before the two separated, Feng Gu said to Wang Haitao with a red face: "Brother Tao, you are out fighting, my heart is always lifted, and I saw that you came back safely, so I let it go." Brother Tao is an anti-Japanese hero and an invincible general, Feng Gu doesn't dare to expect Brother Tao to stay by our mother's side, but Brother Tao, when you fight on the battlefield, you must take care of yourself, and think about our mother and son, I can't imagine how our mother and son would live without you. ”
Wang Haitao sighed and said: "Aunt Feng, I can't help it, hateful little Japan, invade our country's territory, and kill our compatriots, I can only take these subordinates to drive little Japan out of our land! I promise you, as long as I drive all the little Japan out of China, I will disarm and return to the field, and accompany you every day, and the family will never be separated again." ”
Aunt Feng listened to Wang Haitao's words, with a happy expression on her face, and only sighed after a long time and said: "Brother Tao, I don't know when I will be able to drive Little Japan out of China, I really hope that this day will come soon." Wang Haitao smelled the fragrance on Feng Gu's hair and replied: "It's coming, this day is coming, I believe I will let this day come as soon as possible!"
Looking at Aunt Feng's emotional appearance, Wang Haitao couldn't hold back any longer, picked up Aunt Feng, and walked towards the big bed. After a long drought, the two were separated for several months, and at this time it was the dry wood and the fire, a hearty battle, until they were both exhausted. At this point, the two hugged each other and fell asleep, and Wang Haitao really threw away everything on the battlefield and fell asleep.
Early the next morning, Wang Haitao got up lightly, Aunt Feng was so crazy last night that she hadn't woken up yet. After washing, I came to the dining room, the maid brought a sumptuous breakfast, Wang Haitao was about to eat, and Tang Lao and Tang Longzai appeared in the dining room together. Seeing that Wang Haitao was already sitting, Tang Lao was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help nodding secretly. At this time, a man who can still have such self-control is a successful man.
Wang Haitao and Tang Lao greeted each other, and Tang Longzai asked: "Brother-in-law, why don't you sleep more?" Wang Haitao smiled and said: "I just came back, there are still so many things waiting for me to deal with in the army, how can I sleep more? By the way, are you going to go to the division?" Tang Longzai replied: "Brother-in-law, you promised me that I would go to our division to inspect in the next two days, and I have to hurry up and knock the rabbit cubs under my command, so as not to let them fall off the chain at a critical time." Tang Lao and Wang Haitao both laughed.
After breakfast, Wang Haitao took a car to the military headquarters of the 90th Army, while Tang Long drove to the 211th Division station. When he came to the military headquarters of the 90th Army, looking at everything he was familiar with, Wang Haitao immediately entered the role of the commander of the 90th Army, and entered the office, Wang Haitao's mind was running at high speed, and he quickly went through the things to be done in his mind, and then said to the guards: "Go and invite Tang Renli, director of the logistics department, Zhao Zhongwu, director of the military training department, and Tang Renxin, deputy commander of the army." The guard said yes and went out.
After a while, Tang Renli, Zhao Zhongwu, and Tang Renxin came to Wang Haitao's office one after another. First of all, Wang Haitao named Tang Renli. Wang Haitao said to Tang Renli: "Director Tang, this time our 90th Army expedition to Burma, the logistics support work of the whole army has been very good. With such a big butler as Director Tang, I can feel at ease when I lead my troops to fight. ”
Tang Renli was modest on the lips, but he was still very happy in his heart. Wang Haitao doesn't praise people easily, but when he says what he does, it shows that this person's work is indeed satisfactory to him. With Wang Haitao's affirmation, Tang Renli felt that it was worth the worry about logistics supply in the past few months!
After praising Tang Renli, Wang Haitao then began to inquire about the current situation in Longzhou, when Wang Haitao left Longzhou, he arranged for Tang Renli to be in charge of the military and political affairs of Longzhou, while Zhao Zhongwu was only responsible for the training of recruits, so now Wang Haitao will naturally ask Tang Renli, the number one inside and outside, about the situation.
Tang Renli was extremely familiar with the current situation in Longzhou, and when he heard Wang Haitao ask, he told Wang Haitao one by one like a few treasures. The current Longzhou is no less than the existence of Chongzuo City, a regional-level city. The population of Longzhou County has exceeded the 500,000 mark, and one-third of them are military dependents, who moved to Longzhou County with their relatives who joined the army. This is also because Longzhou County has extremely generous treatment and policies for military families, as well as generous military salaries for soldiers.
At present, the factories in Longzhou are still dominated by two large factories, the arsenal and the pharmaceutical factory, and some clothing factories and daily necessities factories have sprung up one after another around the supply of troops. After all, there are 60,000 or 70,000 troops in Longzhou County. As long as the quality of these private factories is up to standard, the troops will use real money to buy the products, and there is absolutely no credit to them. That is, Wang Haitao has a lot of money, so he will drive the survival of dozens of small factories with the power of the 90th Army.
The existence of these factories also solves the problem of the work of a large part of the labor force, there are very few grain fields here in Longzhou, so many people have migrated at once, it is impossible to get the fields, so only to go to the factory to work is the way out. The salaries of 90 officers and men are the highest among the troops in the country, and they are never deducted, and there are various subsidies and awards. Nine out of ten officers and soldiers will send their salaries home, so that the people of Longzhou are relatively wealthy.
When the people have money in their hands, they naturally want to consume, which has led to the great development of Longzhou's commerce, and goods from all over the country have poured into Longzhou, and even in Shanghai, Guangzhou, these Japanese-occupied areas, there are merchants who organize goods to come to Longzhou for sale. The scale of the army is now constantly expanding, and the important expenditure for the expansion of the army, the cost of munitions, has been saved a lot because of the existence of the Longzhou Arsenal, and the other expenses have basically maintained a balance because of the arms business and the sale of penicillin, in addition, Tang Renli has a large amount of ocean handed over to him by Wang Haitao, and Tang Renli basically will not worry about lack of money.
Now the biggest problem facing Longzhou, one is that the supply of raw materials for the arsenal is cut off, although the arsenal is now a province and a province, but it is empty, the raw materials are also decreasing, the problem of raw materials is not solved, it will not be long before the arsenal will face the situation of stopping production. Another problem is that with the increase in the popularity of Wang Haitao and the 90th Army, and the gradual emergence of the Longzhou Arsenal and the Longzhou Pharmaceutical Factory, Longzhou County and the 90th Army have also attracted more and more attention and attention from all quarters.
There are now a large number of outsiders in Longzhou, and spies and intelligence personnel from all walks of life have arrived in the small county town of Longzhou, which has also made the pressure on security work more and more great. For these two problems, Tang Renli couldn't solve them well, so he could only put them forward and let Wang Haitao think of a way.
After listening to Tang Renli's report for nearly an hour, Wang Haitao already had some understanding of the recent situation in Longzhou County. The current situation in Longzhou County is gratifying, and Wang Haitao can only be happy about this, but Wang Haitao must also quickly solve the problem raised by Tang Renli, so as to ensure that Longzhou City can become a stable and reliable rear base for the 90th Army.
Regarding the problem of raw materials for the arsenal, Wang Haitao really couldn't think of any good way for a while, so he had to wait until he went to the arsenal first, learned about the situation from the director of the Rolf factory, and then thought of a specific way. As for another security problem, Wang Haitao has a solution. Not to mention anything else, the ID card system of later generations is a very good method, as long as the problem of anti-counterfeiting is solved, you can change it and use it.
Anti-counterfeiting is not very difficult for Wang Haitao, although there is not so much high-tech in this era, but the level of counterfeiting is also very limited, as long as the water pattern technology and color matching technology used for banknote making, it can prevent the vast majority of counterfeiting. The key is that Wang Haitao fully mastered these two technologies in his previous life, because of the needs of the task. However, the manpower and material resources required to do this matter are not small, but Wang Haitao is wealthy, he wants money, and he wants people, so it is difficult for Wang Haitao.
Next, Wang Haitao then inquired about Zhao Zhongwu's newly established infantry division. This division does not have an official number, and now it can only bear the name of the supplementary division of the 90th Army. I didn't have any problems with the replenishment of the division, but I did have problems with weapons and equipment. The arsenal is no longer able to produce weapons at full capacity, and it has to take into account business needs, so the stock of new weapons is seriously insufficient.
In this supplementary division, only one-third of the soldiers used new-style weapons, and two-thirds of the soldiers used Japanese-style weapons captured in the war, which Tang Renli had to make up after emptying the warehouse. After several months of training in the supplementary division, Tang Renxin came back with his troops, transferred thousands of officers and men at once, and added them to the current troops.
Several divisions of the 90th Army were full again, but only 7 or 8,000 people remained in the 15,000-man supplementary division, and they were all soldiers with Japanese-style weapons, and even the only artillery regiment in the supplementary division was also asked by the 90th Division to supplement the artillery unit sent out by Wang Haitao in Ruili. Wei Hai, the newly appointed commander of the supplementary division and the former commander of the 462nd Brigade of the 211th Division, was angry about quitting, but it was Zhao Zhongwu and Tang Renxin who persuaded Wei Hai after talking badly.
Now it is not a big problem for the supplementary division to recruit more soldiers, but the problem is to get thousands of weapons and equipment from there, and Zhao Zhongwu helplessly threw the problem to Wang Haitao to solve it. Wang Haitao also had a headache, now it is impossible for the Longzhou Arsenal to provide a full division of weapons and equipment, and he has never had a headache for weapons and equipment because of the existence of weapons warehouses and continuous foreign aid.
