under fire

Chapter 1197
Xiao Hongying raised her small fists: "Find a way to let the old bandit Qi get out of the mountain. Let's take Mei County first, and then Xinglong Town."

Ma Liang was dumbfounded: "It's as simple as hitting a county seat and setting up a cannon building."

People's mentality will always change. Ma Liang just thinks that it is not difficult to set up a cannon building, but isn't it nonsense to attack a county town heavily guarded by devils?

Xiao Hongying looked unconvinced: "We have a lot of people and soldiers now, as long as we arrange people to sneak into the county in advance and occupy the city gate first. How difficult can it be?"

Ma Liang shook his head: "The devils can send heavy troops with planes and cannons to encircle Meixian at any time. Even the well-equipped national army is no match for the devils. What's the use of taking down Meixian?"

"Hey, when the time comes, let's move all the people in the city to the mountains. No one will have food. What's the use of the little devil occupying an empty city?" The little girl turned her head to look at Hu Yi expectantly when she said this: " Fox, what do you think?"

Hu Yi nodded: "It's a good idea, but you have to tell me, if we move all the people in the city to the mountains, will everyone starve to death without food?"

Hu Yi seldom spoke in such a teasing tone, Xiao Hongying thought for a while: "Isn't this simple? Let Choi Jiu get a batch of grain into the mountain first."

"There are tens of thousands of people in the mountains, do you know how much food is needed in a day?" Ma Liang shook his head and began to calculate: "You do the math. One person is half a catty of grain a day, and you need five thousand catties a day! 15 catties a month."

Xiao Hongying was a little reconciled: "Isn't it okay to dig wild vegetables and eat them?"

"There are too many people, even if you can get [-] catties of grain by cutting nine, it will not be of much use."

Hearing the quarrel on the roof, Luo Fugui stepped on the low wall and stretched out half of his body: "Stop arguing, there is an army column of devils transporting food on the Pinghan line, wouldn't it be enough for us to grab his grandma's ticket?"

Hu Yi didn't expect that the mule would also start to get involved and come up with ideas. He thought for a while: "The situation of the traffic destruction team is more complicated. Even if we want to do this, we can only do it alone."

Luo Fugui did not know why he became interested in food: "Qiangou Railway Station is the closest to the mountainous area, where it is most convenient to do it. If you grab the food, you can carry it into the mountain."

Hu Yi had a black line on his face: "Do you know how much food the devil's army can transport?"

Ma Liang, who was next to him, began to calculate: "I heard that one carriage can pull about [-] tons, and a ton of [-] catties devil train usually carries about ten wagons, um, it is four to five hundred tons."

Hu Yi smiled: "Then do you know how much a catty is four or five hundred tons?"

The number is a bit big, no, but Ma Liang made a calculation on the ground with his fingers, and carefully counted the zeros behind: "One million, one million, one hundred thousand, my God. One million catties?"

Luo Fu's ugly eyes widened: "My grandma, 100 million catties? Does it take 1 people to carry it?"

A deep voice came from the courtyard: "At least 2 people."

Hu Yi quickly stood up: "Hi, Chief!"

"I heard that Jiulian was wicked and smoked before. It seems that the rumors are not true."

The people upstairs quickly slipped down from the roof and saluted one after another.

The chief waved his hand: "I plan to go to the settlement to see how the people are working. Is there anyone willing to go with me?"

Xiao Hongying was taken aback, pinching the corner of her clothes: "This division. Is it accompanied by the division's guards?"

"It's because they didn't agree, that's why they came to you. Didn't they seize the bicycle yesterday? Let's go by bicycle in a while."

Xiao Hongying asked curiously: "Sir, you can also ride a bicycle?
"Hey, you weren't even born when I was cycling in Montald, Paris more than 20 years ago"

"Chief, you come here to take a look, your words don't count." The officer of the enemy's industry department next to the Taoist looked anxious, and hurriedly stopped him: "It's easy to be targeted by the enemy when you go out in broad daylight. It's too dangerous. You can't do this, Chief. Dry!"

"Young man, tell me, if the investigation and research are not conducted on the ground, how can it be done?"

The officer of the enemy engineering department was about to cry: "No, I'll go find my eldest sister."

"It's useless for you to find anyone! It's to save face for you by cooperating with your enemy's Ministry of Industry and Security Division."

Who can stop what the chief has decided?
"You don't have to go, you have to change into the clothes of the detective team."

The chief shook his head: "Let me change the clothes of the detective team to be a traitor? This is not a good idea"

The officer of the enemy engineering department has already let go, it seems that this mission is settled.

Hu Yi thought about it carefully: "Look at it from a distance, there should be no problem."

"Look, people say it's okay, why are you in a hurry? Get your bike ready."

Hu Yi no longer hesitated: "Ma Liang, take a platoon and set out first! Arrange two soldiers to set off on bicycles to scout the route first."

"Yes!" Ma Liang jumped off the roof, his arm injury still not fully healed.

"Luo Fugui, you and Dirty Face bring a machine gun with a new barrel and ten magazines"

"Yes!"

"Notify Li Xiang, bring a grenadier team, and let Wan Baixi and Wenwu Quan bring mortars"

"Notify Big Dog to take the same class with Wang Liujin, and the two of them will ride a bicycle"

"Others stay in the village as the second echelon, set off"

Hu Yi didn't think much about it, the chief wants to take a risky investigation, just follow the order.

There was a clanging sound in the village, and the team made preparations for departure.

"It's pretty fast." The chief nodded, then suddenly turned his head to look at the little girl, and lowered his voice: "I heard that you watched the friendly army kill more than 100 wounded devils?"

"Hey, we've seen it from far away."

"Then tell me, how far is the distance?"

"At least. It has to be 30 meters away," the little girl wanted to run after finishing speaking.

"stop."

"Uncle Political Commissar. Do you have anything else to do?"

"They've grown so tall." The chief didn't say that.

"The chief, I have to arrange the second echelon and close the perimeter guards, so I'm leaving first."

"I heard that you are the platoon leader?"

"Hey, if it wasn't for the pressure of Captain Fox, he would have become a company commander."

"Have you written all the thoughts and summaries you study every day?"

"Of course I wrote it." Xiao Gongying wanted to say, she even helped Luo Fugui write it.

"The little girl has grown so tall, hey, how about going back to work in the teacher?"

"There are no ghosts in the teacher, so I don't do it." The little girl slipped away after finishing speaking. She knew very well that it was not for her to get close to the concentration camp.

More than a dozen bicycles came out of the village and headed eastward to work in the concentration camp near Xinglong Town.

Commander Wang of the Xinglong Town Security Army has been in a bad mood these days.

After the old nest was taken over by Eight Routes last year, the imperial army was not very satisfied with him.

At the beginning of the year, the Eighth Route Siege failed again, and he, the security battalion commander, simply stepped aside.

If it weren't for the old brothers who followed the imperial army some time ago and reorganized a part of the new fifth army to surrender, he probably wouldn't have had the chance to be the regiment leader at all.

Maybe even the battalion commander's hat has already been slapped.

In his view, reorganization means dismantling the original New Five Armies as a whole and reorganizing them into various security forces.

Of course, his understanding is only at this level.

Since the merger of villages and towns, the Eighth Route guerrillas on the plain have almost disappeared, and the security forces have nothing to do every day.

Although there are more people now, but they only do some shitty things like bringing ordinary people out to work all day long, without extra income, and the living standards of the brothers under him are deteriorating.

The company commander under him looked at the villagers who were listlessly working with hoes in the field: "Battle Commander, if this goes on like this, everyone is going to drink the northwest wind."

"In these years, it's good to be able to live, don't think so much"

"I heard that the 24th Army was cast by the devils under the order of Chongqing, mainly to deal with the Eight Route Army in the mountains."

Commander Wang glared at his company commander: "Don't talk nonsense."

"The Rangers sent people, do you think you should take care of them?"
