Chapter 53 is really good!
The Eighth Route Army soldiers outside the villages felt very strange. They had been lying in the position for most of the day, and many of them covered themselves with branches, otherwise it would be too hot.
But it was lunch time, and I didn’t see a single Japanese coming. Not to mention the Japanese, there was not even a single puppet army, and I didn’t know where they went.
It was not until after 3 pm that the Japanese had not arrived yet. The soldiers sat up and lit cigarettes at this time. Anyway, there were already scouts in front of them. As long as the Japanese came, they would definitely notify them.
At this time, Hu Bin and Li Qinwei were hiding 3 kilometers outside the west gate of the county town. They had eaten and drank enough and had enough sleep. Now they were walking along the road to the distance, and they were also impatient to wait.
"Brother Bin, why don't we go back? It's not easy to hide here. There are no mountains, there are plains, and there are bushes, so it's not easy to hide!" Li Qinwei said to Hu Bin in front.
"Don't worry, let's see if there is any chance. If there is a chance, we will fight. If there is no chance, we will retreat!" Hu Bin said as he walked in front.
"Hey, Brother Bin, how about you tell me we will go to the county town?" Li Qinwei continued to say in front.
"You want to die. You fight the county town. There are so many Japanese in the county town now. I guess the Japanese killed us before we even entered!" Hu Bin took out a cigarette. Now Hu Bin has changed his guns and is no longer smoking his tobacco. He is packing up his tobacco. These are all taken from the Japanese, and it is a waste if he doesn't smoke.
Hu Bin and the others were walking in the forest. At about 4 o'clock, the Japanese troops arrived. When Hu Bin saw that the Japanese were actually coming in a car. Hu Bin calculated carefully and found that there was no chance. He probably when he ran to the other side of the road, the Japanese and the others discovered that they would defend themselves in advance and had no way to fight.
Hu Bin had to take Li Qinwei back. When he found his motorcycle, it was already past 5 o'clock, and when he returned to his place of residence, it was almost 7 o'clock.
As soon as they got home, Hu Bin started cooking, and steamed buns and other things were taken from the cooking team, and they didn't want to steam them. Hu Bin had just finished cooking, and Hu Changgui came here.
"Dad. Why are you here?" Hu Bin quickly brought a stool and asked Hu Changgui to sit down.
"Did you go to fight the Japanese today?" Hu Changgui sat down and asked, looking at Hu Bin who turned around to cook.
"Well, I've fought. The Japanese dragged the cannons out later, and I ran away. We are no match for the cannons!" Hu Bin nodded and said while cooking.
"How many were killed?" Hu Changgui asked behind.
"I don't know, there are dozens of them, I'm not counting them, I'm just fighting not far outside the county town!" Hu Bin replied.
"Well, Xiaobin, these days, no, it should be the end of the month, and we don't care about other places, but we must not let the Japanese come here in this place. Our food is sold to us by the nearby people. If the Japanese snatch it, they will have to drink the northwest wind in winter." Hu Changgui sat there and said.
"Ah?" Hu Bin heard this and turned around to look at his father. Hu Changgui used to be firmly opposed to Hu Bin going out to kill the Japanese, but now he still asks Hu Bin to go out.
"What? Is it okay?" Hu Changgui looked at Hu Bin and asked.
"Okay, I guarantee they don't dare to come out. Anyway, the Japanese cannons can only scare me from the county town. If he dares to drag them out, I will dare to rob it. It just so happens that our troops do not have artillery. But Dad, I have robbed you so many radio stations, why haven't you used it yet? If there is a radio station, how convenient is it to fight?" Hu Bin asked Hu Changgui as he said.
"The telegraphers are now being trained, so how fast it is. However, we are even the first company equipped with a radio station. Now the battalion headquarters is equipped with it, and you are all robbing it!" Hu Changgui said to Hu Bin.
At this time, Hu Bin shoveled out the vegetables, and at this time, Li Qinwei also came back.
"Hello, company commander!" Li Qinwei saw Hu Changgui and immediately saluted and shouted.
"Well, okay, you are older than Xiaobin. Many times, remember to remind him not to be so impulsive!" Hu Changgui explained to Li Qinwei.
"Hehe, don't worry!" Li Qinwei nodded and said.
It has been a few months since he has heard about Hu Changgui and Hu Bin, so he can understand Hu Changgui's ideas.
"Dad, can you eat something more? There is meat!" Hu Bin asked Hu Changgui.
"I won't eat anymore. I just finished eating. When you are growing up, eat more! By the way, I'll give you this to me. The battalion commander said it was sent by the brigade commander. Now the regiment commander is still recovering, so let the battalion commander send it here!" Hu Changgui said and took out a piece of paper from his arms.
"What?" Hu Bin wiped his hands and took it over and asked.
"The recommendation letter was written by the brigade commander himself. I recommend you to go to college. However, whether you can succeed or not, you still need to take the exam. You have to go to Yan'an in November!" Hu Changgui said to Hu Bin.
Now Hu Changgui has also started to learn to recognize words. In the past few months, he has been learning from Yuan Yu, with more than ten characters every day. Now he can recognize most of the characters, but what he writes is not very good-looking.
"Oh, you must go?" Hu Bin heard it and asked looking at his father.
"What do you think?" Hu Changgui heard Hu Bin's question, and immediately stared at Hu Bin's prelude to get angry.
"Go, go, go, I'm sure I'll go. Isn't it until November? It's still early!" Hu Bin nodded immediately when he saw his father like this.
"Go there and study hard. I heard that I have been studying for 4 years. You have the tuition fee yourself. Now you hurry up and read the book. I won't arrange any specific tasks for you. Anyway, you go and kill the Japanese and pay attention to safety!" Hu Changgui said to Hu Bin.
"I understand, thank you dad!" Hu Bin nodded and said.
"Okay. You guys do it yourself, I still have something to do!" Hu Changgui said and left. Hu Bin and Li Qinwei watched Hu Changgui leave.
"Are you afraid of your father?" Li Qinwei asked Hu Bin in a low voice.
"Nonsense, I'm my god!" Hu Bin glared at Li Qinwei, then sat down and started eating. At this time, Hu Changgui returned to the company's army, Yuan Yu also came back.
"How is it?" Hu Changgui asked.
"It's not bad. The people still support us very much. After harvesting wheat, more than 100 young people would come to join the army. In terms of food, we may not have that much money to buy. The gold bars you took last time were later taken to the regiment headquarters and purchased some Chinese medicine.
Now we have less than 30 oceans. I guess it will take five or six hundred oceans to purchase enough grain. The regiment headquarters will not have to rely on us anymore. We can only rely on ourselves!" Yuan Yu said as he poured himself a bowl of water and started talking to Hu Changgui.
"It's okay, I'll ask Xiaobin for it then, this is not a problem!" Hu Changgui said indifferently.
"That won't work. That's the money he made before. There is no reason to ask for it. The battalion commander will not agree, and the regiment commander will not agree!" Yuan Yu said immediately.
"What is the reason for not being right? In front of him, I am the reason. Should he watch me starve to death?" Hu Changgui said indifferently.
"I'm talking to you, hey, forget it, let's think of another way!" Yuan Yu shook his head and said, not wanting to argue with Hu Changgui on this issue.
"What do you have? If you have a way, our soldiers had to eat sweet potatoes last winter. Now those young people can't eat them? There is not enough food, how can we ensure training? Oh, it's not just about grain, meat, oil, salt, where there is no money. I really have to find a way, otherwise, Xiaobin's little money is not enough!" Hu Changgui sat there and sighed.
Now most of the Eighth Route Army rely on themselves to solve logistics matters, and the company is the main force in the solution. Although the regiment headquarters will help, it must be able to do so. No, it is not enough to solve it by itself.
Now their regiment commander Li Tianxing has just been able to get out of bed and has returned to the regiment headquarters. He has begun to lead the troops to develop. It is almost impossible to rely on him to solve this logistics problem. Even a good person is difficult. Logistics problems have always been a major problem in the development of the Eighth Route Army. Not only weapons and ammunition, but also food.
"I heard that the Japanese did not come here today, what's going on?" Yuan Yu sat there and asked Hu Changgui.
"Xiaobin went to the county town to fight, blocking the Japanese's actions. I guess they were beaten, so they didn't want to come out!" Hu Changgui sat there and said.
"This kid is OK. He blocked the devils in the county alone!" Yuan Yu was amused when he heard this.
"Oh no, there are probably dozens of Japanese devils. In the county town, there are two squadrons of Japanese devils. If they really come out, 100 Xiaobins will not be useful!" Hu Changgui sat there and cursed.
"You really don't underestimate Xiaobin. That kid is OK! If you don't believe me, ask the soldiers below, especially Li Dakui and others. Who is not convinced by Xiaobin?" Yuan Yu continued.
At this time, in the county town, Nagasawa Shinichi was listening to the reports of various groups going out for inspection. When he heard that the group in the west also encountered a blockade from the Eighth Route Army, he immediately began to ponder.
"Captain, I feel that if we rely solely on the east and south food, it will definitely not be enough. We cannot raise 100,000 kilograms of grain. I suggest that whether it is the Eighth Route in the west or the Eighth Route in the north, we must get rid of them. There are many mountainous areas in the west and north, but those basins are full of grain.
Those mountain people are also hateful. They are very close to the Eighth Route Army. If possible, we will not only rob their food, but also kill them. They will save them to support the Eighth Route Army and fight against our empire!” A second lieutenant stood there and suggested to Nagasawa Shinichi.
