Chapter 334: There are always more ways than difficulties

The remaining soldiers of the 367th Regiment came forward to congratulate Zhong Yi and Zhu Liangcheng.

Amid the congratulations, a disagreeable voice suddenly sounded: "Tong, I shouldn't mention this matter to you at this time, but it won't be possible if I don't mention it."

When Zhong Yi looked closely, he found that it was Chen Luyuan.

Zhong Yi asked, "Old Chen, what's the matter?"

Chen Luyuan scratched his head and whispered: "Team, our group has run out of food."

After a moment of pause, Chen Luyuan said again: "Actually, the day after breaking out of Nanjing City, our 367th Regiment had run out of food."

Zhong Yi frowned and said, "Old Chen, it's not right. Didn't you bring food for half a month when you broke through?"

"Don't mention it." Chen Luyuan sighed and said with a blaming voice, "When breaking through, the Japanese chased them too quickly. The brothers from the Logistics Department died, scattered, and there were not a few bags of food left."

After pausing, Chen Luyuan said again: "Group, it's all my fault for being useless."

"It's not your fault. Old Chen, you have tried your best." Zhong Yi patted Chen Luyuan on the shoulder and said, "Since the food was out of stock the day after breaking out from Nanjing, how did you survive these days?"

Chen Luyuan sighed and said, "There is no choice but to rely on pawning some personal belongings to maintain it. However, after arriving in Langxi, the brothers had no valuable things on their bodies except weapons and ammunition. They had no choice but to be hungry. Fortunately, Captain Xiao came back and became a pair of bracelets passed down from his family, which barely lasted until today."

Zhong Yi turned his gaze to Xiao Bing: "Did you treat the bracelet?"

"It's okay." Xiao Bing said casually, "What is a bracelet? How can it be compared with the officers and soldiers of the entire regiment?"

Zhong Yi didn't say anything more, but he knew that the bracelet must have extraordinary significance for Xiao Bing, because he saw Xiao Bing staring at the bracelet more than once while there was no one.

Chen Luyuan said again: "Tongzhao, what do you think you should do now?"

"Old Chen, don't worry." Zhong Yi patted Chen Luyuan's shoulder and said, "Since I'm back now, I'll leave this matter to me. In short, as long as I, Zhong Yi, I will never let my brothers go hungry again!"

"Group, what can you do?" Chen Luyuan said skeptically. This food is no better than other materials. Now not only the 367th Group has shortage of food, but the people in the entire Langxi County are almost out of food.

Zhong Yi said: "Don't worry about this!"

After saying that, Zhong Yi took Zhao Hanxing to the street.

...

Langxi is located on the border of Jiangsu and Anhui, and is a small county town.

In the early days of the Nanjing Defense War, the Guoqi Detachment pushed all the way from Changxing, Si'an and Guangde along the highway. It once occupied Langxi for a short time. However, after the Guoqi Detachment continued to march towards Wuhu, Gu Zhutong's third war zone recovered Langxi County, and Langxi is still under the control of the Kuomintang army.

However, Zhong Yi also knew that this situation would not last for too long.

With the complete fall of Nanjing, the main force of the Japanese army will definitely enter a rest, but will still send some troops to mobilize the surrounding areas. If nothing unexpected happens, the 18th Division will soon fight back to Langxi.

Therefore, there is not much time left for the 367th regiment and Zhong Yi.

When Zhong Yi and Zhao Hanxing took the streets, it was almost evening when there were no more pedestrians on the streets.

This era is not as good as later generations. There are basically no night markets. Everyone goes home as soon as the sky is dark. Most poor families can’t even give up lighting the lights, which costs fuel.

There were many homeless refugees, dressed in rags and looked at Zhong Yi and the others in a daze.

Among these refugees, there are even children with pale faces and thin skin, lying weakly on the street, which makes people feel distressed, but now Zhong Yi wants to save them, he is powerless.

Zhao Hanxing said as he walked: "Tuanzhao, this place is too small and too poor, where can we get food?"

Zhong Yi shook his head and said, "There must be food. No matter how poor or small you are, you will have food. And the amount will never be small. It depends on how we get the food!"

Zhong Yi is telling the truth, the people are actually not short of food.

Many landlords have hoarded food that they can't finish for dozens of lives.

What's more, there are grain merchants, who stock up even more grain!

However, with the full invasion of the Japanese army and the transfer and withdrawal of the administrative power of the National Government, the market order in East China has collapsed completely, and liquidity has almost completely dried up, which has led to the basically stagnation of the circulation of goods and services!

What will happen if the circulation of goods and services is basically stagnant?

Grain merchants and landlords have food in their hands, but they can't sell it at all.

Workers and business owners were forced to fire workers in large numbers due to unsalable goods.

Because workers cannot get their salary and cannot afford food, their whole family can only go hungry.

In this way, the economic order in a place collapsed and everyone was in trouble!

Zhao Hanxing misunderstood Zhong Yi's meaning, and the two of them happened to walk to the front of a grain store again.

At that moment, Zhao Hanxing stared at the gate of the grain store and said, "Tuanzhao, do you mean to steal his mother?"

"Fart!" Zhong Yi was so stern at the time and scolded, "Have you forgotten the three disciplines I repeatedly emphasized?"

Zhao Hanxing's face immediately collapsed and he said, "Then what else can we get the food?"

"There will always be a solution. What does the old saying say?" Zhong Yi said, "There are always more solutions than difficulties. No matter what difficulties, think about them carefully and you can always think of solutions."

Zhao Hanxing said: "Why haven't I heard of this before?"

"That's because you read less." Zhong Yi said, "Remember to read more in the future."

"Forget it after reading." Zhao Hanxing shook his head and said, "When I joined the army, what book should I read?"

"So, if you are thrust to death, you will be a company commander." Zhong Yi shook his head, "If you want to be a battalion commander, you won't be able to do it without reading the words and not knowing the work on the map."

"So that?" Zhao Hanxing began to seriously consider Zhong Yi's suggestions.

While talking, the two of them had already arrived outside the gate of a big car shop.

However, Zhong Yi's eyes were attracted by the pile of wooden boxes piled outside the door.

In front of the pile of wooden boxes, there were three men, one middle-aged man and two young men, all of whom were squatting in their sleeves, looking sad.

Zhong Yi subconsciously stepped forward and asked, "What's wrong, is this?"

"Hello, Jun." Although Zhong Yi was wearing the security team uniform, the middle-aged man still stood up and nodded to Zhong Yi, and his words were filled with compliments, "It's nothing, I just encountered some trouble."

Zhong Yi glanced at the big car shop and asked, "Has the store driven out?"

The middle-aged man mistakenly thought Zhong Yi was a patrolman in Langxi and immediately promised: "Don't worry, Jun Ye, we will find a way to move the goods away immediately, so that it will not hinder traffic."

"No hurry." Zhong Yi was wrong and did not deny that he was a patrolman in Langxi and asked, "What is the item in the box?"

The middle-aged man immediately became nervous when he heard this. The patrol officers in these small places were all vampires and even if they were eating people, they would not vomit bones.
