I am an artillery soldier

Chapter 40 Old Village Chief

At the regiment headquarters, Ding Wei came to the communication room, where there was a radio station seized by the new regiment from the devils.

Looking at this radio station, it is still brand new, and Xinyituan has taken good care of it.

Ding Wei admired Li Yunlong a little. When he was in the 28th regiment, he tried every means to get a radio station from the devils, but he never got anything.In the battle with the devils, if all the devils cannot be solved in time, otherwise the devils will definitely destroy the military radio station.Unless the devils are eliminated in a short period of time, the devils will do everything possible to destroy the radio station.This made Ding Wei try many times, but failed to seize a radio station.

"Send a report to the headquarters." Ding Wei ordered.

The prepared telegraph operator acted quickly, and soon, he was in contact with the radio station at the headquarters.Seeing all this, Ding Wei was somewhat satisfied, the speed of this telegraph operator is still very fast.The new regiment can have a telegraph operator, and Li Yunlong, the head of the regiment, personally obtained it from the brigade headquarters. Otherwise, how could the new regiment have such a talent as a telegraph operator?

After reporting Liu Gen's request for the soldiers to reclaim wasteland, Ding Wei left the communication room and walked around the regiment headquarters. After watching the training of the soldiers of the security company, Ding Wei left the regiment headquarters and walked towards Go to the camp location.As the head of the regiment, Ding Wei is going to the battalions to see their training and the mental outlook of the soldiers.The political commissar of the new regiment has not arrived yet, so I don't know when the headquarters will be assigned.

Unlike Li Yunlong, Ding Wei can accept having a political commissar to work with him, and with the assistance of the political commissar, he can relax a bit.Ding Wei had some expectations, hoping that the political commissar assigned to the new regiment would be easier to get along with and cooperate with him tacitly.

……

In the artillery company, the soldiers with insufficient abilities were training hard. They were a little envious of the soldiers who were taken away by Liu Gen.These soldiers have long felt a little boring after such training, but there is no way, they still have shortcomings, so they can only stay for training.

The first squad leader was a bit strict. He knew the role that the artillery company needed to play in the battle, so naturally he didn't dare to slack off.He has very high requirements for these soldiers who are not capable enough, and he also hopes that these soldiers can become better as soon as possible, so as not to affect the combat effectiveness of the artillery company.It was Liu Gen who knew this that he left the first squad leader to train the soldiers.

The second squad leader and the third squad leader are also good, but compared with the first squad leader, they are not as good. If there is no accident, Liu Gen will focus on training the first squad leader.When Liu Gen left the Xinyi Regiment, he asked the first squad leader to take over. By then, the first squad leader should have grown up.

In the wasteland, Liu Gen and his soldiers waved their pickaxes and continued to reclaim the wasteland.The soldiers moved very quickly. Twenty or thirty people working together should be able to reclaim about five acres of land today.If you spend more time, it is possible to reclaim more land, but Liu Gen is not prepared to do this, and the soldiers still need training.

The soldiers of the artillery company don't need to reclaim too much land, about [-] to [-] mu of land is enough, and Liu Gen also needs to leave some land for the other soldiers of the new regiment, and the artillery company can't reclaim all the wasteland. Let the new group of other people do?After reclaiming about five acres of wasteland, Liu Gen took the soldiers back to the training ground and continued today's training.

After ordering the soldiers to carry out training, Liu Gen turned around in the village. He found the village head and planned to discuss with the village head about letting the villagers take care of the crops.Taking care of the crops is not too heavy a job. Besides, the wasteland was reclaimed by the soldiers, and the seeds were provided by Xinyituan. There should be many villagers willing to do this.

"Is the village head there?" Come to the center of the village, the village head's house is here.

The village head is actually an old man in this village, with high morals and high prestige, he will be referred to this old man for any problems in the village on weekdays, and over time, this old man has become the village head.

"Little comrade, what do you want?" After waiting for a while, the old man opened the wooden door that had been mended.

There is no way, some slightly rich people in the village will go to live in the town, and only some poor people stay in the village.Not to mention that affected by the war, there are fewer and fewer strong laborers in the village, which makes the elderly in the village account for the majority.

"Old man, it's like this. Our comrades have reclaimed some wasteland. We will provide the seeds. I don't know if the villagers are willing to take care of the crops for us? The work will not be too heavy. After the grain is harvested, some will be distributed. To the villagers." Liu Gen hurried forward to support the trembling old village chief.

The old village head was slightly taken aback, and after a while, a trace of joy appeared on his face, and his body stopped shaking, "Little comrade, are you serious?"

"Old man, it must be true. If the villagers are willing, they can come to the artillery company to find me in the afternoon. The artillery company is to the east of the village. You should know it." Liu Gen said softly.

"I know, I know, there was rumbling cannons over there yesterday, we thought it was devils coming." The old village chief said.

"I'm really sorry. We were testing the cannon yesterday and forgot to notify everyone in the village. We will notify everyone in advance if there is anything going on in the future." Liu Gen quickly apologized.

The soldiers of the new regiment were notified of the live ammunition shooting yesterday, but they forgot to notify the villagers in the village. Liu Gen told himself to keep this matter firmly in mind.Fortunately, the villagers were not affected too much, otherwise Liu Gen would not be able to make up for it no matter how much he apologized.

"It's okay, born in troubled times, we old people are used to the sound of cannons." The old village chief sighed, feeling a little depressed.

Liu Gen nodded. Looking at the old man, he felt a little uncomfortable. In such troubled times, the old man's life can be described as quite bitter.Liu Gen could see that the old village head had many patches on his clothes, and his body was very thin. As a village head, his conditions might not be much better than ordinary villagers.

"Come on, little comrade, I'll call the villagers now, tell everyone well, there must be many people who are willing to help you take care of the crops."

"If the land is enough, old man, I will help you take care of the crops. I just hope that you don't dislike me as an old man. If the land is not enough, let the villagers claim it first. The old man still has some food in reserve, and he can still support it." The old village chief looked helplessly. Looking at Liu Gen, he hesitated for a long time before speaking.

Liu Gen looked at the old village head, his eyes were a little moist, they didn't need to be like this.

"Old village chief, don't worry, there is definitely enough land. Our Eighth Route Army is a people's team. When there is free time, we can ask the soldiers to help everyone reclaim the land." Liu Gen promised directly with a serious face.

Liu Gen felt that he needed to do something for the villagers, and it was very necessary for the soldiers to help the villagers reclaim the land.There are so many old people in the village, without the help of the soldiers, there will be less land that can be reclaimed, and the life of the old people will be more difficult. With the help of the soldiers, the old people can also relax.

"Little comrade, thank you, thank you Eighth Route Army! Thank you!" The old village chief took Liu Gen's hand, his expression excited.
