Chapter 200: Divergence
Liao Jundong and a dozen of his subordinates were taken out of the courtyard by Wang Shiru, and no one except Wang Shiru knew where they were going. ๏ผฅโกใ๏ผ
At this time, Liao Fan of course didn't know that Liao Jundong had been controlled by Chongqing, and he was still worrying about whether the little devil had received the telegram he went out, this was the result of his hard work for more than ten days, if the little devil didn't know, he would have wasted so much energy to give advice to the little devil in vain.
"Brother Fan, I have arranged all the classmates invited by Zhang Cuihua, and I have also equipped them with a special cooking class, and the place where they live now is where the original three regiments were stationed, and that place is relatively hidden and more suitable as a base for the arsenal." In the past few days, the fighters of the special combat team have received another batch of people, adding up to more than 30 people.
"Changsheng, you came just in time, I have a task to hand over to your special combat team." Liao Fan decided to send soldiers to Wuhan to investigate the situation, his right eyelid has been jumping straight in the past few days, and he always feels that something is going to happen.
"Brother Fan, what's the task?"
"You sent five groups of fighters to disguise themselves as ordinary people to go out to find out about the situation of the little devils around, and the soldiers who have been engaged in intelligence in the county town recently don't know what's going on, and they haven't sent information for several days." Liao Fan judged that something must have happened.
"Brother Fan, we have already investigated this, recently the little devils have been very strong, and the county has been tightly blocked, and the entrance and exit gates have to be strictly checked, the little devils seem to have been stimulated by something, and some of the puppet troops inside the county have also been disarmed." The soldiers of the special combat team are now used as ten people by themselves, and they are busy guarding and patrolling the station, recruiting and training soldiers, and even the intelligence collection of the surrounding strongholds and county towns has also fallen to the special combat team. Huang Changsheng has been completely busy these days, and he has to arrange these newcomers in his spare time.
Of course, many tasks were not arranged by Liao Fan to Huang Changsheng, but Huang Changsheng took the initiative to take them by himself, Huang Changsheng said this, he wouldn't think about Zhang Cuihua when he was busy.
"Then go to the vicinity of Wuhan to investigate, you don't need to go into the city, just learn about the recent movements of the little devil, I'm a little worried."
Huang Changsheng was busy, and Liao Fan became an idler. Liao Fan now mingles with Liu Deyun and them whenever he is free, Liao Fan has no other purpose, that is, he wants to put his arsenal plan on the agenda as soon as possible, and at the same time, he must do a good job of his own weapons while the troops are exhibiting.
"Senior Commander Liao, can you call it an arsenal? There's not even electricity, and our blacksmith shop is bigger than your arsenal. Du Weize teased.
"Hehe, how can it not be compared to the blacksmith shop, our arsenal still has a production of more than a dozen grenades a day, and the blacksmith shop can't make grenades." Liao Fan is very proud of his current arsenal, which can make grenades and repair guns, which is beyond his expectations, when they came to Taihang Mountain, they had nothing, and they were self-made.
"Brother Fan, the blacksmith shop can shoot a lot of bayonets a day, although the quality is not as good as that of the little devils, but the quantity is definitely more than your arsenal, if you give them explosives, it will not be a problem to make a few grenades." Liu Deyun is also called Liao Fan "Brother Fan" when he enters the countryside, "There is also that we can't rely only on labor, we have to rely on machines, and labor can't be compared with machines now, and if you want machines, you must develop electricity, I think our top priority is not to build an arsenal, but to build a power plant, which is our core." โ
"Master Liao, we are also a good woman who is difficult to cook without rice, what do you want, we might as well not come, you will raise us as idlers here, and you will reimburse the country for anything, you are simply here to make a fool of yourself."
"Shen Zhengwen, don't talk nonsense, Brother Fan has worked hard to invite us, it will definitely be of great use to us, besides, Zhang Cuihua is our classmate, she is just a woman, she sacrificed her life in order to invite us here, and we can't be treacherous people to say anything." Liu Deyun said.
"Zhang Cuihua is your friend, not our friend, I didn't come here to repay any friend promises, I just want to apply what I have learned, not waste my life in the mountains." Shen Zhengwen is the second batch of people to arrive, this person was not invited by Zhang Cuihua, he was only willing to come over to have a look, and after coming to the station of the 33rd Independent Division, he was in a-for-tat confrontation with Liu Deyun everywhere, and he was not used to looking like Liu Deyun's big brother.
"Liu Deyun, what are you talking about! Although the conditions here are not good, how is Master Liao to us, you can also see that after living here for so many days, whether it is food or use, we have sent people to supply us, are you not satisfied, and although Zhang Cuihua is not your friend, no matter how you say it, she also fell under the guns of the enemy, she is a martyr, but also a hero, no one can insult him. "After all, Liu Deyun is also a young man, and he will endure it once or twice, but after a long time, everyone will be angry.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I can see that it's not that you don't want to stay, but that I don't have a platform here that you need to display your abilities, right?" Liao Fan could see that a considerable number of them were extremely reluctant to stay, after all, the Taihang Mountains were very different from Beiping, one was a poor mountain and the other was an international metropolis.
"I didn't say I didn't want to stay." Shen Zhengwen didn't dare to go to see Liao Fan, he was disappointed after seeing Liao Fan's station in the past few days. He also knew that the conditions in Taihang Mountain would be very poor, but he didn't expect it to be so bad, he was lying in bed for the past few days, thinking about how to leave.
"Brother Fan, I'm willing to stay, even if there is no power plant or arsenal, you can give me a gun and let me be an ordinary soldier." Liu Deyun came to Taihang Mountain with full of enthusiasm, and when he came out, he had already told his family that if he didn't drive the little devil out of China for a day, he wouldn't go home for a day.
Of course, a few people expressed their willingness to stay, most of them hid and didn't want to look at Liao Fan, not because they were afraid of death and didn't want to stay, but because they were too simple, and there were no facilities for them to display their ambitions, they were all aspiring young people.
"Several of them are young talents we invited, not to mention ability, just on the level of education, all the people in our army can only be regarded as illiterate compared with you, our troops need educated, knowledgeable people, not only to make guns and cannons for the troops, but also to make our troops into a literate troops, a literate army can learn more skills, and then have a stronger fight." Liao Fan looked at all of them and said, "Of course, if you don't want to stay, I won't force you, originally you were invited by me, not counted as people in the army, and you don't have to abide by the rules of the army, so you come and go freely." โ
"Commander Liao, we are not afraid of war, let alone death, but this place does not need us at all, and raising a group of idlers like us will only waste food for the troops." Shen Zhengwen's face was a little embarrassed.
"It is true that the army never raises idlers, you have also seen it in the past few days, we have schools here, there are children, but they lack teachers, if you really think that you are idle, you can go there to be a teacher, our teachers here have subsidies, although not much, but it is enough for your daily expenses."
"Brother Fan, we can't ask for these subsidies, at that time, the little devils had a quota for Beiping City, and many of our teachers ate mixed noodles, and then went to class hungry, and finally fainted on the podium from exhaustion. The teachers set an example for us with their actions, not to mention that we are now well fed and clothed, and the troops are not very rich, compared to the soldiers on the front line, we don't have to shed blood and sacrifice, and we don't need to rain bullets, which is good enough for us. Du Weize's attitude has changed a lot since he came to the 33rd Independent Division, especially when he knows that the common people have saved their own rations to support Liao Fan and them, he is very moved.
"You must, if you only work and don't get paid, who dares to come to our station in the future, I can't let the people and my soldiers know that your wages will be deducted. It's so decided, every Friday, you go to Sun Boyong of the logistics department to receive your salary, although the money is not very much, I believe that in the future, when the conditions are good, you will be given a salary increase. Liao Fan knows very well that no matter how hard he is, he can't work education, which is the foundation for how far he can go in the future.
"As for you, it's very reluctant to let you stay like this," Liao Fan said to Shen Zhengwen, "I only ask you to give me five months, within five months I will get you any equipment in the power plant, and you can choose to teach the children in these five months, or you can choose whatever you want to do, our station guarantees to treat you the same as before, but I will not pay you." "Liao Fan is now thirsty for talent, regardless of whether the quality is good or not, it can play a role.
Shen Zhengwen lowered his head, he was still hesitating, but a few people immediately made a decision and agreed to stay.
"I don't think it will be possible for you to find a suitable place after you go back, now the important factories in Beiping City are controlled by the little devils, and you are just working for the little devils after you go back, do you want to turn your back on your motherland in order to find a suitable platform? I think that your teachers teach you these useful things in the hope that you will contribute to the motherland. โ
"I'm willing to stay, if Master Liao doesn't fulfill your promise in five months, I will also leave." People like Shen Zhengwen know very well what they want.
"Then it's such a happy decision, you can do anything now, but I will make a few rules for you, which our troops must follow."
Liu Deyun hurriedly agreed: "Brother Fan, it's good for you to treat us as the masters of the army, and you don't need to relax our requirements." โ
"There are not many regulations, just a few: those who commit adultery and criminals, kill! Molesting the women of the people, kill! Whoever oppresses the people, kill! Leak military information to send traitors, kill! โ
