After discussing the matter with Guo Bingxun, Yang Zhen simply took a few mouthfuls of food, and rushed to the laborer's station, which was unable to shelter from the wind and rain at all. Although the smell was so bad that it could almost smoke a person, Yang Zhen didn't seem to feel it, just stood aside and watched quietly.

Looking at the scrawny laborers who were devouring the rice that was brought over, Yang Zhen said to Peng Dingjie, who was checking the labor situation here: "How is it, are you going to go with us?" Do ideological work, and take away everything you can. These people will be our best recruits. ”

Having received Guo Bingxun's notice, Peng Dingjie, who knew Yang Zhen's thoughts, nodded and said: "All the laborers, except for a few old ones, basically decided to fight devils with us. It's just that they are all a little worried in their hearts, his home is in the occupied area, and they are afraid that the devil will know about revenge. ”

"Revenge? They are just tired and die here, can they be that when they want to kill their families, they can spare their families for the sake of their hard labor in the northeast, and show mercy to their subordinates? They are tortured like this because the state is sorry for them, because the state is not capable of protecting them. ”

"If you want their children and grandchildren not to suffer the same thing as them, then follow us to pick up guns and fight devils together. Only by driving the devils out of China and building a strong and prosperous new China will their children and grandchildren no longer walk the path they have taken. ”

Speaking of this, Yang Zhen paused and said, "Old Peng, you told them these words of mine as they were, word for word. Sue them, for the sake of the descendants of future generations not to be oppressed by others, and for the sake of their own survival, pick up a gun and fight devils with us. ”

Hearing this, Peng Dingjie nodded and said, "I will tell them what you said." We found a mass grave in the back mountain, which was full of the bones of laborers. When they were leaving, they and all their brothers were taken there to see. Let all the brothers know what will happen if we don't resist, and let them be enslaved. ”

Hearing Peng Dingjie's suggestion, Yang Zhen nodded appreciatively and said, "Okay, Lao Peng, your mention is good, and you will be responsible for this matter." If you can think of this, I think you are fully qualified to do political work. From now on, he will be the political commissar of our army. ”

"Lao Peng, although we are now a country but not a country, and we are not a communist, if we want to survive here, or even develop, we must establish an anti-Japanese team that is politically qualified, militarily competent, has a good work style, and fights effectively."

"The brothers are good soldiers, and although they became prisoners of the devils, they were not frightened by the slaughter of the devils. How to do it, in order to build them into an anti-Japanese iron army, can not be done with just a blood, it is necessary for us leaders to think. ”

"And to cultivate a steel team that can't be defeated, blown up, and can't be pulled away by money and beauties, you need to have a strong political ideology as a backing. Here, we don't have any way back. Some can only rely on their own blood and loyalty to the motherland, and vow to fight to the death against the Japanese invaders. ”

"You have been able to persevere in such a difficult environment, and despite setbacks, you are still persisting in fighting. However, our Red Army marched 25,000 miles, climbed snow-capped mountains, crossed grasslands, and fought almost every day, but it was still not defeated, starved, or dragged down. ”

"Most of my soldiers are illiterate, they don't understand the big truths, and they even have a weak sense of the country. How to let our brothers, including these laborers, know who we are fighting for, I will leave it to you. ”

Yang Zhen's words silenced Patten. After a while, he said: "Lao Yang, although I have been in the Anti-Japanese Federation for a long time, except for the first two years, I have always been in charge of the secret front and have never done political work. You've entrusted me with such a heavy matter, I'm really afraid that I won't be able to do it well. ”

"Moreover, most of the political work of our Anti-Japanese Federation is explored by ourselves, and it is far less than the intensity of your political work under the personal leadership of the Party Central Committee. You came down from the main force of the Red Army, and although you are a military cadre, you should also be familiar with how to do this political work. You can give me more guidance on this political work. ”

Hearing Peng Dingjie say this, Yang Zhen knew that he was going to take the work of this political commissar next. Looking at the time on the watch on his wrist, Yang Zhen, who got a satisfactory result, said to Peng Dingjie again: "Old Peng, hurry up, there is not much time left for us." Once you've dealt with this place, let's go. ”

Hearing this, Peng Dingjie nodded and said, "Okay, they have almost eaten enough, so I'll arrange it." Try to get these laborers to come with us. One more person, one more strength. ”

Speaking of this, Yang Zhen patted Peng Dingjie's shoulder encouragingly, and smiled: "Old Peng, have confidence in yourself." As long as we have faith in ourselves, nothing in this world can make it difficult for us. ”

Just as Yang Zhen was about to step out of the labor shed, a laborer who had just put down his job stood up and said, "Sir, I heard what you just said. I haven't read a book, and I don't understand the truth. ”

"But as long as you fight devils, you will give me a gun. More than 40 people were arrested in one village, and only one of us died. Do I still have the face to meet the villagers when I go back there? I won't go there, as long as you fight devils, I will follow you. ”

"It's not that we don't believe in you and don't want to fight devils with you. You are all wearing devil skins, although you speak Chinese, and you give us a full meal, but we still don't know who they are? What is the team? Everyone is worried that you are two dogs, and you are deliberately luring us into the bait in order to find a reason to attack us. ”

Hearing this voice, Yang Zhen turned his head to look at this young man who was about twenty-one and twelve, although he looked very thin because of long-term malnutrition, but he was very energetic, and said with a smile: "If we don't fight devils, how can we save you?" ”

"We wear the military uniform of a devil, are we devils or two dogs? If the Nationalist Government doesn't give us military uniforms at the moment, and we can't rob the common people, and if we don't rob the devils, will you let us be naked? Also, do devils need a reason when they kill people and arrest people? ”

"Well, I will believe you. Sir, please give me a gun, and I will fight devils with you. When this young man heard Yang Zhen admit that they were fighting devils, he immediately walked up to Yang Zhen and asked for a gun.

Yang Zhen was not ambiguous about his request, and directly called the little tiger who was standing outside the door waiting for him, took off the gun on the little tiger, and Yang Zhen handed the gun to the young man: "Since you want to fight devils, then good, this gun is yours now." ”

After that, Yang Zhen instructed Xiaohuzi to teach him how to use a gun, and after glancing at the young man again, he left with a smile. He answered one of the young man's questions, but avoided answering the number of his troops. Because he doesn't know what he should call himself now? Is it the National Revolutionary Army or whatever?

Guo Bingxun's movements were very fast, and when Yang Zhen went to see the labor shed, he had already packed up the things that could be taken away. The five carts that Ding Xiaosan had prepared for the Japanese puppet army were loaded with food, explosives, surplus weapons and ammunition, and other supplies. Even each brother also carried thirty pounds of food on his back.

It's just that there are too many materials seized here, and in addition to taking all the food away, there are many that cannot be carried. There are a lot of explosives, **, etc., of which there are more than 1,000 catties of explosives that cannot be carried. Mine, that's it.

Looking at the explosives and gasoline that could not be carried, Yang Zhen, who felt a little distressed if they were all burned and blown up, thought about it for a while, and then had an idea in his heart. Rather than destroying it in vain, it is better to reuse it.

The Devil Brigade is about to arrive here. Surrounded by mountains, there is only one dirt road left to allow a large group of people to pass through the road to the mountain, except for a small railway that has not been repaired for a long time.

The small railway was used to transport ore to the Binsui Railway, and the transportation capacity was not large, and it could not afford the transportation of large troops. Although there were only two squadrons of Japanese troops and one battalion of puppet troops on foot, the number should be at least a thousand. Yang Zhen can conclude that the Japanese puppet army who wants to enter the mountain must be taking the road.

Yang Zhen, who knew this, called Guo Bingxun and pointed to the road into the mountain: "Old Guo, so many explosives and gasoline can't be transported, isn't it a pity that you say you just threw it here?" If you look at the terrain here, there are mountains all around, and this is the road that can accommodate a large army. If we bury all the explosives and gasoline that we can't carry on this road, how about inviting the Japanese puppet army to take a Turkish plane? ”

Regarding Yang Zhen's suggestion, Guo Bingxun nodded almost without any consideration: "Why can't you do it, your construction is too good." However, I still have one more idea, Lao Yang. Explosives can be placed not only on the road, but also on the small railway. It's a pity that so many explosives are all buried on the road. I have six or seven hundred pounds of explosives, plus gasoline, which I think is enough. It's all dirt roads, so you don't need that much. ”

"Although this small railway does not have much capacity, I don't think the devil will not take advantage of it. Even if you can't transport troops, you can still transport supplies such as ammunition. Let's also set up explosives on the railroad and give him a nest. ”

"Okay, that's it. On the side of the explosives, the captured iron nails are bundled together to increase the lethality of the explosives. Anyway, it will take a little time for Lao Peng to educate the laborers, so we will take advantage of this time difference to arrange. Anyway, this is a mine, and the last thing that is lacking is tools. The brothers are all farmers, and repairing the earth is even more handy. ”

Regarding Guo Bingxun's addition, Yang Zhen nodded thoughtfully. This small railway is not good at transporting troops, but it does not have any problems carrying ammunition. What's more, no matter whether the Japanese puppet army will use it or not, it is better to blow it up than to leave it to the devils to plunder resources and serve them in the war.

After making up their minds, Yang Zhen and Guo Bingxun, who immediately launched the operation, split into two ways. The explosives were placed on the road, and Yang Zhen personally led the team. The task of planting explosives on the railway line was entrusted to Guo Bingxun.

Yang Zhen did not bury all the explosives on the road, but buried most of the explosives in an open space of about a few hundred square meters in front of the mine headquarters. The devil's march must have arrived here to rest. And this mine, which is not much larger than those small private mines in later generations, except for this vacant land, there is not enough unprecedented to accommodate these Japanese puppet troops to rest.

As long as the Japanese puppet army rests here, Yang Zhen buried nearly 500 catties of explosives mixed with a large number of iron nails, as well as more than ten barrels of gasoline and kerosene, which is enough for these Japanese puppet soldiers to drink a pot.

The explosion points of these explosives, Yang Zhen has carefully calculated. Once detonated, there would be no dead spots left within a few hundred meters of the area. If the Japanese puppet army were all concentrated here, these explosives enough to raze a hill to the ground should be able to take them all at once.

And in the classic Japanese-style small building that could be used as a rest for senior officers of the Japanese puppet army, Yang Zhen was not polite, and loaded with fifty catties of explosives that were enough to blow up this small building into the sky.

The remaining explosives were buried by Yang Zhen on the road adjacent to this open field. Yang Zhen secretly estimated the establishment and number of the two Japanese squadrons in his heart, measured the distance approximately, and then cautiously planted the explosives.

Of course, the only well in the middle of the open land is such an obvious target, and Yang Zhen will not let it go. He also set up a trick mine with a grenade and the remaining two mines. As soon as the Japanese puppet army hit the water, it was impossible not to dismantle the mines he had set up.

All the detonation points were set on an inconspicuous hill about 100 meters away from the open area, behind the small building of the headquarters. All the wires were buried in the ground by him, and cleverly concealed. Fortunately, the seized wires were thousands of kilometers long, enough for him to use.

It can be regarded as a natural choice, the ** used here is instantaneous power generation**, and it is not a problem for the wire to be buried in the ground. If you use a fuse, you will have to spend a lot of time to conceal it.

After carefully camouflaging the explosives burial site, Yang Zhen cleverly set up the bodies of the three murdered ghost mine directors and the bodies of the two dozen pseudo-policemen into a trick. As soon as the corpses were moved, the grenades hidden beneath the corpses would explode. And this explosion is the signal of the detonation.

After arranging a qiē, looking at the explosives burial point that he had arranged from the appearance of almost no traces of people, Yang Zhen was slightly satisfied and said to Guo Bingxun, who had rushed back after placing the explosives on the railway: "I have carefully calculated the equivalent and explosion point of explosives. As long as the little devil sets foot here, even if there are thousands of people, they will have no return. ”

Looking at Yang Zhen's layout, Guo Bingxun secretly praised and couldn't help but wonder a little: "Old Yang, where did you learn this hand?" If you don't know the details of this burial point, you can see that you have done anything here. ”

Regarding Guo Bingxun's question, Yang Zhen smiled but said: "It's a pity that there are ordinary ammonium nitrate explosives here." If you replace it with Shimose explosives or black sokin made by more powerful devils, you can save at least 30% of the explosives. ”

After that, Yang Zhen raised his head and looked at Peng Dingjie, who had already taken out all the laborers in the shed and had already assembled, handed the map seized from the mine and a Japanese map to Guo Bingxun and said: "Old Guo, you take your brothers and supplies to withdraw first, and I will leave a fireworks for the devil to take a look." Let's meet in the area of Daqingdingzi Mountain. ”

"Lao Guo, when you lead the team to retreat to Daqingdingzi Mountain, bring Huang Dali with you, and you must put more sharp soldiers in front. What I'm worried about is that the devils are adopting the tactics of east-west this time. Mobilize the Japanese puppet army in the Harbin area and the Japanese puppet army in the Mudanjiang area to flank us from east to west. ”

"You take the carriage to the north first, and when you are about ten kilometers away from the Binsui Railway, drop the carriage. Unload the horses and carry them instead. If you can't take it with you, you can even throw some of it away. But the carriages must not go into the mountains together. ”

"The goal of the carriage is too big, and it is easy to reveal our whereabouts. Even those five horses will give up when the time comes. These horses are not war horses, they are not trained, they are easily frightened, they will expose us. ”

Although this area is high and densely forested, it is located between the three railways of Binsui Railway, Changtu Railway, and Mutu Railway, and the room for maneuver is too small, which is also convenient for the Japanese puppet army to mobilize troops. The devil can't just tune this way to clean us up, so you have to be more careful. ”

"In addition, there may be anti-union activities in that area. When you get there, don't get into trouble with them. If you encounter the Anti-United Nations, let Lao Peng come forward. He came out of the Anti-United Nations, and he knows more about the Anti-United Nations than we do. As for the rest, I'll talk about it when I get there. ”

"Okay, I'll be more careful. Lao Yang, you have to catch up as much as you can. I'm waiting for you in Daqingdingzi Mountain, and we'll see you there. Although it only took a day and a night to cooperate with Yang Zhen on the battlefield, Guo Bingxun had gradually become accustomed to Yang Zhen's character that would not change once he made up his mind.

Knowing that once Yang Zhen decided something, Guo Bingxun, who would not change it, did not argue too much about this matter. After saluting Yang Zhen with a standard military salute and leaving Li Mingrui behind, Guo Bingxun just said: "Take care" and led the team to set off.
