Chapter 102: Difficulty
"What! There is not enough food! ”
As soon as Li Jian heard Uncle Gen say this, he felt that this was a big deal! Now that I have five or six hundred people, the consumption of food must be huge. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
With their current financial resources, they should not be able to support it for long, so they must reserve some food now, otherwise when winter comes, these five or six hundred people will have to drink the northwest wind!
"So how long can we last with our current food?"
Li Jian asked Uncle Lao Gen again, and Uncle Lao Gen immediately replied:
"Ten days at most!"
"It's only been ten days!"
The iron bull on the side also felt the seriousness of the matter, if there was no grain reserve in the warehouse, it was very likely to lead to instability in the army!
Most of them are recruits, and some of them are puppet soldiers!
It would be troublesome if all these people were gone by then, after all, these fighters did not have a strong sense of belonging to the independent battalion!
"Uncle Gen, can we go to the people's homes to buy some food!"
"No, we have bought a lot from the people, and now the autumn grain has not yet been harvested, and there is not much grain in the hands of the people!"
Uncle Lao Gen immediately denied Li Jian's idea, they must stay up until the autumn grain comes down, but it is estimated that there will be two or three months before the autumn grain comes down, and by that time, the people in the independent battalion will have already starved to death!
"Then how about we go to the county seat to rob the devil's food?"
Li Jian immediately thought of another way, but Uncle Lao Gen still vetoed his idea.
"No, the devil just fought a big battle with us, the underground party in the county town came with news, they are now heavily guarded, and there is not much food, the last time the devil transport team was a few days ago, it was a transport squadron, I didn't dare to fight!"
Hearing Uncle Lao Gen say that the devil's transport team only passed a few days ago, Li Jian regretted it in his heart! I knew I was back early!
"Is there any devil stronghold or anything around there?"
Li Jian's last thought, Uncle Gen, did not immediately express his objections.
"This is there, but we don't dare to fight at all, but now that the battalion commander is back, we can fight it, but the food in those strongholds is not enough!"
Uncle Lao Gen also said that these strongholds can be fought, but the food may not be enough, Li Jian now understands that it is really not an easy task to lead troops to fight!
"Get through this for a while, take one step at a time!"
"That's all there is to it!"
Uncle Gen also nodded when he heard this, there is no better way now!
In the next few days, Li first studied the deployment of the devil's stronghold, and there were five strongholds near Wangzhuang, and Li Jianzhun was going to pull them all out in one night!
Anyway, now the special combat team has grown very fast after several major battles, and it should be able to solve the battle soon after being divided into two or three batches!
It's just that these strongholds are not too big, the most is only more than 30 devils, and the least is even only a dozen devils!
Fortunately, the independent battalion now lacks nothing and has plenty of weapons and ammunition, except for the lack of time to train new recruits. That's why I want food! Otherwise, you won't even be able to eat, how can you train?
After studying for a few days, one night, Li Jian set off with the special combat team, this time the special combat team was divided into three batches, Li Jian, Tie Niu, and Dagen, and the three of them each brought one.
Li Jian first arrived at the nearest place to them, this is not a stronghold at all, it is a checkpoint, I really don't know what the devil thinks, he just suffered a big loss, and now he dares to set up a checkpoint so close to Li Jian, he is tired of it!
In fact, the devils didn't know that Li Jian's independent battalion was so powerful, although several checkpoints were attacked, but they thought that now the Eighth Route Army was being pressed and beaten, and it was impossible for them to dare to come and sneak attack, so they set up a few!
But the devil was destined to suffer, and after Li Jian and the others quietly approached this checkpoint, they quickly killed the devil's sentinel.
Then they killed a few other devils one by one, and when the remaining devils reacted, Li Jian had already arrived in front of them, and the special combat team members solved them one by one!
But Li Jian really didn't expect that the devil would dare to use the puppet army in such a situation, and the puppet army would be useless! It's good not to help as soon as you go to the battlefield!
Rao is Li Jian and they are so much moved, these two devils are still sleeping so dead! Li Jian really has nothing to say!
"It's all up, the eighth road is coming!"
Li Jian shouted, as soon as these puppet soldiers heard that the Eighth Route was coming, they immediately panicked and looked for guns everywhere, but they couldn't find them!
"Look no further, your guns are here!"
Hearing only one voice sound, the puppet soldiers raised their heads and found several people standing and watching them!
And at this time, when a puppet soldier was lying on the ground looking for a gun, he found that his head had hit something, and when he looked up, he found that it was an eight-way man pointing a gun at him, and he had just hit the muzzle of the gun!
Looking at the black and murderous muzzle, this puppet army was also relieved, if this eight-way grandfather's finger moved lightly just now, then he would be done!
Li Jian is now holding a crooked handle at them! At this time, these puppet soldiers began to beg for mercy, but a few puppet soldiers did not speak.
Li Jian looked at these puppet soldiers and felt very familiar, and then asked:
"Do you know me?"
"Yes, we saw you last time, and you let us go! The Eighth Route Army treats prisoners preferentially, especially you, who don't like to shoot at us Chinese! ”
A puppet soldier said with some resignation.
Li Jian suddenly laughed at this time, feeling that these puppet soldiers actually figured out their own character!
"Yo, you know me well!" Li Jian put down his crooked handle, and then said with a smile, but then he continued:
"Since you know me, then why do you still come to be a puppet army, is it so good to work for the devil?"
Speaking of this, Li Jian's face was a little serious, and at this time, these puppet soldiers were also a little scared and said:
"Sir, I can't help it! We've got to feed our family! Many people in the family are here, and the brothers don't want to sell their lives to the devil, and the villagers are poking us in the back in the back! ”
When Li Jian heard his words, he immediately understood, and then he said a little coldly:
"Don't let me see you scourge the people! If I had seen it, I would have skinned you! ”
These puppet soldiers hurriedly nodded and agreed! Li Jian then went to another relatively large checkpoint!
As for the seized things or something, anyway, the devil's checkpoint usually has a carriage specially used to transport supplies, and Li Jian also smiled unceremoniously!
In this way, Li Jian and his more than 20 special combat personnel pulled out six or seven checkpoints of the devils in a row overnight!
More than 100 guns and ammunition were seized, as well as crooked handles, and most importantly, some food was obtained, which could be eaten for at least a month!
This also provides some logistical conditions for them to enter the ancient town!
