"This is a preliminary statistic."

Ze County.

An officer handed over a statistical form to the person in charge of economic warfare.

And report in detail the details in the statistics:

"Up to now, there are 107 new factories in southern Hebei, including garment factories, soap factories, match factories, furniture factories, and iron foundries."

"And two hundred and seventy-seven farms."

"Seventy-three farms raising chickens, ducks, pigs, cattle and other livestock."

"If the current pace of development is followed, it is conservatively expected that by the end of this year, the scale will be doubled, and at that time, not counting the grain grown by the people themselves and the livestock they raise."

"The total value of production materials in the southern Hebei region will reach 100 million new southern Hebei dollars."

After the secretary's report, everyone in the conference room smiled.

100,000,000,000 South Hebei dollars.

It's still a conservative estimate.

In terms of grain, it is equivalent to 100 million catties of imported fine grains such as white flour, or 300 million catties of coarse grains such as sorghum.

Not much.

100 million catties of fine grain staple food, only 50,000 tons, based on the total population of 5 million people in southern Hebei today.

Only 100 catties per capita!

It is equivalent to the production of materials of 100 yuan per capita!

However, this data does not include the production of ordinary people in southern Hebei, as well as other individual factories and workshops, but the production capacity of newly built factories, farms and farms directly managed and funded according to the local area.

If you include the output value of the people themselves, it is about 380 yuan per capita!

Almost everyone has a pound of food every day.

That's a good idea for a region that has recently seen a massive influx of refugees and a population that has nearly doubled.

You must know that in the southern Hebei region, it has only been four months of development, and even if it is the Chinese New Year, it is only eight months.

In just eight months, the economy has developed almost from scratch to the present.

Of course

All this is due to the almost unlimited supply of silver dollars, as well as the surging demand for silver dollars in the international market, so that the southern Hebei base area, as well as other base areas, do not need to worry about the problem of over-issuance of currency.

There is also an abundance of food.

to accomplish this miracle.

"Those factory equipment."

After the debriefing, the officer expressed his concerns:

"Many of them were even sold by devil merchants."

"The quality is very good."

"The technology is also relatively advanced"

"Some of them are eliminated by the United States, and some of them are even the latest equipment from the United States, such as the ten 50-kilowatt coal-fired generators that were recently imported."

"It's all the latest American products."

"It's expensive, but it's very reliable, which is perfect for when we don't have a lot of technical engineers in our area."

"However, once the army of devils comes to attack, when the time comes..."

As soon as the officer's words came out, the rest of the people in the conference room looked at the person in charge of economic warfare.

This problem is not only a concern for the officers, but also for them.

Although the strength of the army has increased greatly, it is still far from a frontal field battle with the large army of devils on the plain.

Not to mention the troops in the southern Hebei base area, even if they pull out the independent regiment and face the devils of two or three divisions and regiments, they will definitely not be able to defeat them in the southern Hebei region, on this plain terrain.

When the time comes, the southern Hebei base area, which has cost tens of millions of silver dollars for so long and has gathered the efforts of countless people, is afraid that it will be destroyed in one fell swoop.

"Advanced American generators?"

The head of the economic war smiled.

In the Taihang base area, after seeing the generators provided by Li Yunlong's mysterious friend to provide electricity for the two printing presses, and then looking at the ten generators imported from the United States, there were even devil merchants involved in the sale and purchase.

The person in charge deeply understands the technical gap between the two sides.

The generator on the side of the Independent Regiment,

It is less than one-fifth the weight and one-seventh of the volume of the United States, and can be directly installed on a two-horse board car, but the power generation is twice that of the American generator.

And the noise is low, it does not produce violent black smoke, and it does not need to continuously consume water.

It can even run continuously for dozens of days without maintenance.

Faults can also be detected automatically.

Suffice it to say, the two are not the same thing at all.

"There's no need to worry."

"Headquarters already has a detailed response plan."

"In charge of this plan is, Deputy General Staff."

The words of the person in charge reassured everyone and made everyone understand that this involves content that needs to be kept strictly confidential, and they will not ask more.

"Next, our task is to buy more machinery and equipment, it doesn't matter if the price is more expensive, the more the better."

"Not only do we need it in the southern Hebei base area, but also Taihang and Taiyue base areas."

The person in charge accentuated.

In fact, he didn't know what the specific headquarters was planning.

However, this plan has an order jointly signed by the president, deputy general manager, general staff, deputy general staff, Li Yunlong, Zhao Gang and others.

and

Combined with the two incredibly advanced printing presses, the person in charge had a vague guess in his heart - the boss behind Li Yunlong would reimburse the machine destroyed by the devil.

And the reimbursement comes very advanced.

The person in charge didn't think much about it, and conscientiously implemented the orders of his superiors - frantically collecting all kinds of machinery and equipment, no matter whether it was advanced or not, no matter what machinery and equipment, no one refused.

"Yes!"

Northern Review.

Railway station.

A team of devils, carrying a batch of wooden freight boxes, came to the railway station, and then boarded a military column.

"Five Czech light machine guns of the Eighth Route Army, 41-year machine guns, 38-type rifles, Mauser 98K rifles, two Type 60 mortars, one Type 82 mortar."

"And the corresponding bullets and parts."

"There were also three broken walkie-talkies, two broken radios."

The chief of staff of Watanabe, who was in charge of the escort, glanced at the list in distress.

The first few weapons are fine.

The empire captured not much, but not less.

But the 82-caliber long-range mortar, so far, the Reich has captured only one.

After all, those who have this kind of artillery are the main regiments of the Eighth Route Army, and it is almost impossible for the Locust Army to have a chance to annihilate this kind of troops, plus this kind of artillery is really light, and two people can maneuver over long distances.

It is extremely difficult to seize.

As for walkie-talkies and radios.

The protection of this kind of machine is extremely strict, and even if it is a last resort, it will be blown up, so it has not been completely seized so far, and a lot of damaged ones have been captured.

A few for the United States, the best of them.

"Pay attention to the safety of materials!"

As soon as he was instructed, Chief of Staff Watanabe was thinking about one thing.

The technology, materials, manufacturing processes, design level, etc. contained in these weapons are all advanced to the point of despairing the military personnel of the Empire, and the gap between the current industrial technology of the Empire.

To use an analogy, it is equivalent to the gap between the level of the imperial civilian industry in the last century and the most advanced military level of the United States today.

Forty years of gap.

In particular, the seized communication equipment that was named the second-generation walkie-talkie and radio station by the Eighth Route Army.

Although the empire can't make other weapons, the materials and processing technology are too bad, but the military industry can at least understand why this weapon is so advanced.

But this second-generation communication device,

To this day, the imperial technicians do not understand how they reduced the components that require a large number of tubes, capacitors, wires, etc., totaling hundreds of pounds, to the size of a palm, less than half a catty?

And even more advanced!

What happens when these incredibly advanced weapons appear in the sight of the American military?

Chief of Staff Watanabe suddenly had some anticipation.

On the other side,

After drafting a press release published in Xinhua Bao about the public killing of the chief of staff of the North China Front, Zhao Gang stretched and walked out of the office.

With the stabilization of the base area, Yangcun also began large-scale construction.

The regimental headquarters buildings have all been rebuilt, although Zhao Gang's office did not use cement, after all, although Boss Lu has also begun to provide reinforced concrete, the quantity is relatively small.

Only a few thousand tons per month.

It is mostly used for the construction of ammunition depots, and warehouses.

In addition, considering safety, the office of Political Commissar Zhao is still a cave structure, but the amount of wooden beams and wood has been increased, and the internal pure wood planks are spliced, which is not a little better than before.

Outside the regimental headquarters,

Lao Xia, a photographer from Xinhua News Agency, was holding a camera to shoot at Yang Village, as well as the headquarters of the Independent Regiment, military camps, positions, guards, air defense positions and other buildings.

Picture by picture,

A company, more than 120 soldiers dressed in uniform and neat brand new Eighth Route Army uniforms, wearing military caps, carrying 98K, Czech-style, grenades around their waists, walked in a procession.

From far to near and far again.

The background is the greatly changed Yang Village,

It has only been two months since the 27th Division swept away.

Coupled with abundant timber and large-scale firing of brick kilns, a large number of new houses have begun to be built in Yangcun, and many ordinary people who are building new houses can be seen.

Old broken houses and newly built houses are intertwined, giving people a feeling of rebirth from the ashes.

and the ubiquitous canals.

In order to improve the situation in the dry land, the militia engineer unit organized the construction of new aqueducts to divert water from distant rivers, and built water reservoirs to turn the dry land into irrigated land, so that the vicinity of Yang Village did not need to rely entirely on the weather for food.

In the thick reinforced concrete position, twin 12.7mm machine guns were pointed into the sky, and thumb-thick, palm-sized chains extended from the magazine's ammunition holes.

From the elevation angle, the barrel of a gun with a water-cooled sleeve gives a sense of oppression no less than that of a large artillery.

Next,

It was a soldier holding a huge bullet, and his palm occupied most of the negative, which made the bullet appear extraordinarily large.

"Political Commissar Zhao, can the plane shoot?"

After the shooting, Lao Xia walked up to Zhao Gang and asked.

There is no better publicity than airplanes!

In the hearts of the common people, aircraft and artillery are the apex of weapons and represent the victory of the war.

The devils have occupied so much territory all the way because the devils have aircraft and artillery.

The new anti-aircraft guns have already been filmed, and the planes are missing.

"Absolutely."

Zhao Gang immediately agreed with a smile.

The new transport plane is already in place, and although it is not open for exchange for the time being, it does not need to wait long.

And

In the list, fighters also appeared. (End of chapter)
