Anti-Japanese War: Starting from Yaobai

Chapter 1308 Give Charcoal in the Snow!

Commander Deng asked Sun Zhen to think about what other gifts the No. 20 Second Army could offer.But in the end, Sun Zhen thought for an hour, but came up with nothing.

The ones that can be sold have been sold long ago, and the ones that can be sold have been sold long ago, so how can they stay in the present?
However, just when Commander Deng and Sun Zhen were at a loss, a guard came to report, "Report Commander, the Special Commissioner for the Dragon Boat Festival has arrived and has arrived outside the station."

"what?"

Commander Deng seemed to be in disbelief that the Special Commissioner for the Dragon Boat Festival actually came to the No.20 Second Army.

"Welcome right away."

Although Commander Deng was surprised, he made a judgment in an instant, and he must not neglect this special commissioner.Nowadays, the No.20 Second Army doesn't have many friends anymore, let alone being assigned to such a remote place.

There is a saying that goes well: Poor people can't hook their relatives with ten steel hooks on the cross streets; rich people can't beat unrighteous guests and friends with wooden sticks in deep mountains and old forests.

So what's more, at this time, the No.20 Second Army is not only poor but also moved to the deep mountains and old forests, and no one comes to visit.

But I didn't want to, but the special commissioner came. How could Commander Deng not be ecstatic?
He led the staff of the headquarters, including the deputy commander Sun Zhen, to greet them all the way to the gate of the station.

At this time, the Dragon Boat Festival convoy hadn't come in yet, because Commander Deng was so happy that he forgot to give the order and asked the Dragon Boat Festival special commissioner to come in.

Therefore, the soldiers of the Sichuan Army did not dare to let people in casually.

Seeing this, Commander Deng yelled loudly: "Why did you stop the special commissioner outside? Why don't you quickly move the refusal horse and invite the special commissioner to come in."

The soldiers quickly moved away from the horses, while Commander Deng almost trotted all the way to the gate of the station.

He looked around for a while, and saw a young officer sitting in a wheelchair, his body including his thighs covered by a green woolen overcoat, and behind him stood an officer with long hair and glasses.

There was also a burly major officer on the side, and the rest were all guards.

Commander Deng felt that the young officer in the wheelchair should be the Dragon Boat Festival commissioner.

Before, Commander Deng had only heard about the Dragon Boat Festival, but had never seen it.So at this time, he can only guess.

Commander Deng hurriedly smiled and said, "Special commissioner, I'm really sorry, the brothers under him are ignorant, and they have neglected the special commissioner."

Duan Wu said with a smile: "Hahaha, in wartime, it should be so."

"Commissioner please, let's talk indoors, it's cold outside."

Commander Deng asked Duan Wu to enter his residence, but Duan Wu did not get in the car, but walked with Commander Deng and others.

While chatting with Commander Deng about the current situation of the No.20 Second Army, Duanwu looked at the wooden houses built around the mountains.

These wooden houses are stretched in the woods, there are countless rows, and there is no end in sight.

This made Duan Wu think of one thing, that is, if the enemy chooses to attack with fire, the No.20 Second Army will definitely suffer heavy losses.

Duan Wu and Commander Deng said: "These wooden houses are too close to each other, and they are built in the woods. Once the enemy finds out and uses fire to attack, the No. 20 Second Army will be defeated without a fight."

Commander Deng thought it was reasonable, but they were unable to make any changes at this time. The reason was that there was not enough food, and the physical strength of the soldiers could not bear to rebuild the wooden houses.

So Commander Deng was embarrassed and said: "To tell you the truth, we will run out of food for the second episode of No. 20 after tomorrow. If you want to rebuild the wooden house, it can be said that the soldiers no longer have the physical strength."

Duan Wu said: "You don't need to demolish the wooden houses and rebuild them, just cut down the trees. Don't cut them all down, they are all cut down, so many wooden houses are exposed to the sight of Japanese reconnaissance planes, the devils are very likely to bomb here .Old Deng, do you know what is called a fire barrier?"

Lao Deng thought for a while and said, "Is it just to cut down a forest to prevent the spread of the wildfire?"

Duan Wu nodded and said: "You're right, look at these wooden houses, they are all very well-behaved, which shows that when you built these wooden houses, you Lao Deng also thought of these wooden houses. These wooden houses can be used as shelters. And some Firebreak, you have also done it, but it is not enough. Once the wildfire spreads, all the wooden houses will burn soon.

When the flame burns, it will not only produce a lot of smoke and toxic gas, but also take away oxygen and suffocate soldiers.

Therefore, once these wooden houses burn in a large area, they must immediately abandon this place and find other favorable terrain to block the enemy.

But I think that if the enemy really wants to set fire, they will definitely occupy the dangerous positions at various intersections and set up ambushes, so you might as well send out two regiments to protect your own rear first, so that the No.20 Second Army can sit back and relax . "

Commander Deng laughed and said, "Listen to what you say, it's better than studying for ten years! I'll let them handle it. It's just that there are some things that need the help of the special commissioner."

Speaking of this, Commander Deng actually bowed slightly.Obviously, even a hero has to bend his waist for five buckets of rice.

He is asking for alms at the Dragon Boat Festival now, although the Dragon Boat Festival has already helped them a lot, and he also took out all the rations of his independent regiment.But Commander Deng had no other choice, he could only show his old face and ask Duan Wu for help.

Duan Wu smiled and said: "Hehe, Commander Deng! I have already told the chairman about the food, and the military department will send you food in a short time. In addition, I bought some cotton clothes for you in the third army. It will be delivered in the next few days."

"Thank you, thank you Commissioner."

At this time, Commander Deng even had the urge to cry with joy, and firmly grasped Duan Wu's hand.

At the same time, the other officers of the 22nd Army, including Sun Zhen, almost jumped up with joy.Because the Dragon Boat Festival is just a sentence, it solved the biggest difficulty of his 22nd Army.

Duan Wu laughed, looking at the old man in front of him who looked like a child, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, what a group of good officers and soldiers they are.He must let them dress warmly and eat well before going to the battlefield.

At this time, Duan Wu said to the old abacus behind him: "Go, take 20 oceans from the car and give it to the 22nd Army."

"This, this can't be done."

Commander Deng quickly waved his hand. Of course, it wasn't that he didn't need the money.He needs it because he hasn't seen money in almost half a year.But he felt he couldn't.Because the Dragon Boat Festival has helped them enough.

Although he didn't know where the money for the Dragon Boat Festival came from, the money was not blown by the wind.He even thought that this might be the military expenses of the Independence Regiment itself, so he absolutely couldn't take it!
