The father of the sword is Kong Jie

Chapter 265

Kong Jie just left, leading the independent team to leave in a chic way.

The teams left in batches, according to the size of two battalions each time, Kong Jie led the third battalion and the seventh battalion of recruits on this last trip.

In addition, the cavalry company, guard company, commando, and mortar company directly under the regiment, plus the repair station and health center built by the regiment's resident.

This last batch of teams is the largest.

While walking on the road, Kong Jie gathered the cadres at the end of the team and held a meeting with the army.

The main discussion is how to quickly gain a firm foothold in the area around Niukou Village, the new resident, and develop base areas and guerrilla areas.

Kong Jie smiled and asked the cadres for their opinions.

Wang Huaibao, the commander of the third battalion, took the lead in speaking: "Regiment commander, our independent regiment has gained a lot of experience in how to open up a base area in the past six months. I think that after we arrived in Niukou Village, our experience in the development of Yangcun can be used. It is appropriate to use it, even if it is copied over.”

"On the one hand, we need to build base areas; on the other hand, we must step up military training for the entire regiment, establish an intelligence system that combines the enemy's industry department and the intelligence department, and be on guard against the movements of the Japanese troops in surrounding counties at any time; on the other hand, It is to combine the development of the overall defense work of the surrounding villages with the masses, as well as the rapid construction and training of militia organizations, so as to provide supplementary soldiers for our main force at any time."

Kong Jie nodded with a smile. The three battalion commanders always kept their secrets hidden, and they generally summed up quite comprehensively. That is, the first battalion commander and the second battalion commander were not here, so they opened their mouths to express their opinions.

"Then, which step do you think should be carried out first?"

At this moment, the cadres were a little hesitant, and some said that of course they should first gain a firm foothold and start the construction of the base area.

Some said that combining with the masses is the most important thing.

Others said that the establishment of the intelligence system and military training in the regiment are the most important.

In the end, everyone argued differently, and their eyes focused on Kong Jie.

They are all waiting for the head of the group, Kong Jie, to make his final decision!
Kong Jie thought for a moment, then smiled and said six words, "If you want to establish yourself, you must first establish a name!"

"Commander, what do you mean?" Zhu Wu, commander of the Ninth Company, was as straightforward as ever. When he had doubts, he was the first to ask.

Kong Jie said: "It's very simple. Our independent group can actually be compared to a large group, or to a single person. If you want to live in a new village, it doesn't matter if you want to build a house or find a job so you don't starve to death." Well, or building a good relationship with the hundreds of relatives around, although these are important, the first step you have to do is to let the village accept you, so that you are eligible to live in."

"Now our independent group is stationed in Niukou Village for the same reason. First of all, we must make our independent group famous, so that the people will accept us, sincerely recognize us, and be willing to cooperate with us in various anti-Japanese work. Then everything that follows It went much smoother."

Wang Huaibao said with a smile: "Commander, that's easy to say. The common people are kinder to our Eighth Route Army. This mass work is not difficult to do. On the one hand, it is communication. On the other hand, we follow previous experience to suppress bandits and devils. Association, we will soon be able to establish the prestige of our independent group in this area."

Kong Jie laughed and said, "The Third Battalion Commander is right. These things should be done. In addition, we can add a new way."

"Head, have you thought of any good ideas again?" Wang Huaibao asked.

Kong Jie smiled and asked, "Dong San, how about the logistical coin reserves of our post-independence regiment?"

Dong San replied: "Regimental Commander, we still have a lot of spare money, which was collected and accumulated after victories in battles, and the last time, Commander, you attacked the arsenal and hospital of the North China Security Army and robbed them along the way. I opened a bank, so the accumulated coins are enough to support our whole group for nearly a year."

"It's quite a lot." Kong Jie nodded, and then asked, "What kind of money is it?"

Dong Sandao: "There are quite a lot of types, including silver dollars, French currency, and daily tickets."

"What is the people's favorite?"

"Hey, head, it must be Yuan Datou. This thing is always recognized by the people. As for the French currency, it was relatively stable before the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War. The reputation is not bad, and the people are willing to accept it. But the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War Afterwards, especially this year, when the national army announced that they could not freely convert legal currency, the credibility of legal currency plummeted, and now in the eyes of the common people, it is not even as good as daily tickets.”

Kong Jie said: "Then use silver dollars and daily tickets!"

"Leader, what are you going to do?" Dong San asked suspiciously.

Kong Jie said, "Exchange for copper coins."

Dong San was puzzled: "For copper coins?"

Kong Jie said: "That is copper plates, a large number of coins minted in the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China. This copper coin is different from the square hole copper coins of previous dynasties. More than a few cents.

But don't ignore the material of the copper plate itself, which is a high-quality copper material. The copper element itself contains more than 90% copper, which can basically be said to be made of copper.

This copper is an important strategic material. Bullet casings, shell casings, and wire cores are all made of copper, and many weapons are inseparable from copper.

That being the case, why don't we collect these copper coins and use them as raw materials for making bullets? "

Dong San suddenly realized: "That's right, leader, why didn't I think of it? According to the current production technology of our weapon repair shop, almost one copper coin can produce one bullet, and this copper coin is not expensive. We can exchange a hundred or so, and now we will exchange even more, every copper coin hoarded is a bullet, if there are enough copper coins, do we still have to worry about not having bullets?"

Kong Jie said: "This is a matter of mutual benefit and win-win. Now copper coins are basically not in circulation in the market. People mainly recognize silver coins and various bank notes.

However, the Qing government minted a large number of copper coins at the beginning, and it is absolutely impossible to disappear out of thin air. There should be a lot in the hands of the people.

We can use five times or even ten times the price to recover these copper coins from the hands of the people and use them as raw materials for the production of bullets.

In this way, we have the raw materials for the production of bullets, and the common people have also obtained tangible benefits from it. Tell me, do we still have to worry about the reputation of our independent group?

In addition to suppressing bandits and fighting devils to maintain a relatively stable life for the people around the station, it can also bring real benefits to the people and improve the lives of the people. That is the best team .

And how can people's lives be improved?You have to let them have more tickets in their hands, and that is the happiness that the common people can truly experience. "

The soldiers came to their senses one after another, this method is absolutely feasible, and the common people will definitely welcome it.

Only Dong San on the side was still calculating the price difference. After a while, Dong San smiled wryly: "Leader, but in exchange for these copper coins, we can only use them as raw materials for ammunition production, and cannot be used as currency. In this way, our reserves of coins will only become less and less, I am afraid that our money will not be enough, and sooner or later we will be unable to make ends meet.”

Kong Jie said: "You have reached a dead end. The coins we kept should have been used to buy raw materials for military production. Copper is a scarce strategic material. The devils are very strict in controlling it. There is no market for the price. We basically can't find any good way to buy it.

It would be much more convenient to hoard copper coins, and the price of copper coins themselves is not expensive.

In addition, you don't have to worry about money, whether it's silver dollars or day tickets, I will find a way to get it back for you.

In addition, our independent regiment will not have no income in the future. We will fight with the little devils and do business with the little devils at the same time. It is still possible to earn a little money to buy military supplies. "

Dong Sandao: "Yes, leader, I feel relieved when you say that."

　Cervical pain... The winter solstice is here, let me take it easy, and work harder if I owe it. In addition, I would like to thank Ga Xiaoben and book friends for their rewards. The rudder owner should add more...
