Chapter 720: The Pressure of the Japanese Army (Second Update!) )

Xiong Changhe's strong strength shocked the people in the village, and they had the idea of believing in the Eighth Route Army and the new regiment again.

This was not enough, and before a few hundred people could react from the shock, the instructors of the first battalion on the rostrum spoke again.

"I know that what everyone is most worried about during this period of time is that after the autumn harvest, will our Eighth Route Army distribute a large amount of grain to everyone like other armies, so that everyone can pay all the public grain for a year's hard harvest, and then go hungry."

"Now, on behalf of the Eighth Route Army, I assure you that our Eighth Route Army is the people's army, an army that is here to protect everyone, defend the country, and fight devils, and would rather be hungry than add an extra burden to the villagers!"

"Therefore, we decided to levy public grain in accordance with the minimum standard stipulated by the Eighth Route Army, and all the people in our base area, the villagers within two acres of land per capita, only need to pay five catties of public grain per acre, and all the remaining grain belongs to themselves."

"Of the land within five acres per capita, two acres of which will be levied according to the standard of five catties of public grain, and the excess will be levied according to the standard of seven catties of public grain!"

"Of the land within 10 mu per capita, 5 mu or less will be levied according to the above standard, and the excess will be levied according to the standard of 10 catties of public grain per mu."

"More than 10 acres of land per capita will be levied according to the standard of 20 catties of public grain per mu!"

The venue, where hundreds of people had gathered in front of the podium, suddenly became lively.

The expressions on everyone's faces are different, some are shocked, some are surprised, some are not convinced. Of course, there were also people who showed expressions of dissatisfaction and anger.

However, most of the people had a look of shock and surprise on their faces.

Because, they have very little land in their hands, and almost no of them reach the standard of two acres per capita. This means that they only need to apportionment five catties of public grain per acre of land, compared with the original dozens of catties at every turn, this public grain is nothing at all, as long as they save a province, they will come out hungry a few more times!

But it didn't take long for the surprise on their faces to be replaced by suspicion.

Is it true that such a low standard of public food is true? Could it be that the Eighth Route Army is deceiving everyone, waiting for everyone to collect all the grain, and then suddenly raising the standard of public grain apportionment.

The instructor seemed to see everyone's thoughts, and followed the order: "I have a notice here, which clearly states the standard for our Eighth Route Army to levy public grain, which is posted at the entrance of the village in black and white, and it is also stamped with the seal of our new regiment, and I will never regret it!" ”

"Also, after statistics, after our Eighth Route Army eliminated the maintenance meeting in the village, we snatched back a total of more than 800 acres of fertile land from those traitors. Our new group decided to wait for the end of the autumn harvest to distribute all the more than 800 acres of land to everyone free of charge, and the villagers who have no land will give priority to the distribution of fields, and then the villagers with less land, so as to ensure that everyone in the village has at least two acres of ration land! ”

"In addition, if someone in the family is in the Eighth Route Army, as a military family, we will also give preferential treatment in terms of public food, and all public food standards will be lowered by one level. That is to say, within two acres of land is exempt from public grain, three to five acres of land is only levied on five catties of public grain, five to ten acres of land is levied on seven catties of public grain, and more than ten acres are levied on ten catties of public grain! ”

In this troubled world, being able to live safely and have food is definitely what every ordinary person dreams about every day.

And what the new group did clearly made their dreams come true.

Stimulated by land and food, the common people finally re-recognized the Eighth Route Army stationed in their villages and began to deal with them.

At the headquarters of the Japanese army brigade in Linfen City, under the urging of Matsumoto's phone call a day, the headquarters finally transferred another 500 recruits to him, and promised that the remaining two brigades of recruits would be delivered in the next month!

"Chief of Staff, one squadron from each of the 135th Brigade will be transferred to the 1st Brigade, and the remaining vacancies will be filled with new recruits."

"Before the battle to encircle and suppress the new regiment began, the first brigade was the infantry brigade with the strongest combat effectiveness in our brigade, and I want them to quickly recover their combat effectiveness and become our elite again!"

The chief of staff immediately received the order and said: "Hey, please rest assured, the general is guaranteed to restore the combat effectiveness of the first brigade within a month!" ”

As soon as the chief of staff was about to leave, the phone on Major General Matsui's desk rang.

This phone was the special phone of Major General Matsumoto, and it only connected Matsumoto's superiors, the military headquarters, and the North China Front Headquarters.

So, as soon as the phone rang to Matsumoto's ears, he rubbed himself from his seat and got up.

I tidied up my appearance first, and then put the earpiece next to my ear.

"Hello Commander, Humble Matsumoto, please give the order!" As soon as a few words came out of the earpiece, Matsumoto said with a serious face.

But it didn't take long for the serious expression on his face to be covered with heaviness.

"Hey! Humble duty understands! Mission completion guaranteed! Hi ......" Finally, the microphone was lowered amid a muffled reply.

Then the whole person sat down in his seat with a heavy face.

"General, is the headquarters on another mission!" The chief of staff asked with a moment's hesitation.

Matsumoto replied noncommittally: "Well, the headquarters said that after the autumn harvest, they will only solve 20% of the food supply for us, and the rest of the food supply will be solved by ourselves, so as to feed the war with war!" ”

"However, we have six or seven thousand people in the Guanghuang army in Linfen. There are also several regiments of puppet troops, more than 10,000 people, and there are no five or six million catties of food, which is simply not enough for the troops to eat! The chief of staff's brows were also twisted into a big Sichuan character.

Then he continued to analyze: "Also, the five or six million catties of grain are only calculated according to the minimum demand standard of the troops. If there is a war, the demand will be greater, and it is possible to add up to 10 million catties! ”

Matsumoto replied with a calm face: "This is not to blame the headquarters, this is the situation on the entire Chinese battlefield!" ”

"For the sake of this war, the pressure on the empire is increasing, and the limited supplies have to be concentrated on the front-line battlefield. As for those of us who remained in the rear, we had to carry out a large-scale campaign to feed the war within our jurisdiction and reduce the logistical pressure on the empire. ”

The chief of staff hesitated for a moment and asked, "But, general, it is impossible for us to get 10 million catties of grain!" ”

"If there is no Eighth Route Army in Linfen, regardless of the life or death of the people in Linfen, they can still collect 10 million catties of grain. But now, the two main grain-producing areas in Linfen have been occupied by the Eighth Route Army, and it is impossible for the remaining towns to gather 10 million catties of grain! ”

"Unless we take these two towns back from the Eighth Route Army before the autumn harvest. But the time is so tight, and the troops are not enough, it is impossible to do it! ”

Matsumoto shook his head and replied: "No, we don't need to recapture these two towns, we just need food, and as for the life and death of the people of Zhina, let the Eighth Route Army take care of it!" ”

"General, do you have an idea?" The chief of staff's eyes lit up and asked.

"Yes, and it's a ploy to kill two birds with one stone. Not only can they get food, but they can also increase the burden on the Eighth Route Army, crush them, and make them lose the hearts of the people! Matsumoto replied confidently.

Then he commanded, "But before we can do this, we have one thing that must be done!" ”

"Train the troops, you can train as many recruits as the headquarters sends, so that they can form combat effectiveness as soon as possible!"

"As long as I have troops, my next plan to kill two birds with one stone can be implemented!"

Tianjiazhuang's new regimental headquarters, Wang Ping and Zhong Chenggong are also frowning.

The three main battalions of the 134 were successively established with fire companies, the artillery company of the regimental headquarters was also expanded into the main battalion, and the people of the two towns began to slowly accept the Eighth Route Army. This would have been a great joy. However, as the director of logistics sent a list to the regiment headquarters, the good mood of the two people disappeared all of a sudden!
