Comrade, Your Ingredients Are Too Complicated Chapter 127

Chapter 127: Decisions on "One Hundred Regiments War" and "People's War"

August 18, the division in a certain county and town advanced to the command post.

Today's division headquarters is much more lively than in the past. Most of the commanders above the regiment level of the 129th Division are gathered here. In the crowd were not only the leaders of key regiments like the Iron Triangle, but also the commanders of the eight main regiments.

Before the combat meeting officially started, everyone was chatting happily. After all, everyone usually stays in their own defense zones, so it's really rare to get together with friends like this.

Li Yunlong, who was smiling and getting close to the commander of the artillery battalion at the headquarters, suddenly spotted Cheng Xiazi in the crowd, so he strode over.

“I heard that your kid captured two Type 92 infantry cannons some time ago? That's okay, you are becoming more and more promising now, and you have not embarrassed our old army!”

Concerning his old squad leader, Cheng Shifa sometimes really had the attitude that he couldn't afford to offend him and he couldn't afford to hide from him. Although he also knew that the other party was teasing most of the time, he couldn't stand it so many times that he panicked.

This was the first time that Blind Cheng encountered a situation like today. He subconsciously thought that the other party might really be eyeing his cannon, so he acted as if he had just been robbed and said with a sad face:

"Hey, don't say it again. How can I make a fortune? I'm so poor that I'm already wearing my pants. Don't you know who the brigade commander is? I just seized the front leg here, and he called me on the back leg. "

Just when Li Yunlong was about to continue speaking, the division commander walked out of the conference room in the distance and walked towards the empty seat where they were sitting.

The commanders who were noisy at first suddenly became silent, and everyone present looked at the man wearing glasses who came over.

The division commander's eyes swept over everyone's face one by one. He said with a smile and a slight accent of his own dialect:

“There are quite a lot of people here today, and I see that you are having a very heated discussion. So I will keep the story short and try not to delay you in preparing for the war.”

"The Japanese have used many methods to defeat us. They have blocked international transportation lines, bombed our important cities, and launched massive attacks on frontal battlefields. These are all intended to cause divisions within us and force us to surrender."

The division commander had a serious expression, and everyone present looked prepared.

“Now is the most dangerous moment for the country. Not only is it difficult to fight, but there are more and more capitulationists. Our operation is also to call on everyone to unite to overcome this danger and difficulty.”

These words spoken by the division commander are another purpose of this raid.

The southwest where the preserved fruits are now located has been targeted by Xiaozhi since February 1938. The Japanese Army Air Force and even the Navy Air Force carried out indiscriminate bombing of that city and its surrounding areas for a long time.

These beasts do not distinguish between the front line and the rear, nor do they take military targets as their main targets. Instead, they frantically target residential areas and bustling business districts.

They also used a large number of incendiary bombs during the bombing to burn houses in urban areas. The purpose of this is to force Guo Preserved to surrender.

There has been no news of victory in the country for too long. Coupled with the current panic, the national war support rate has become extremely low. If the Eighth Route Army can make some big noise at this time, it will undoubtedly be a shot in the arm.

Moreover, the lunatics of the candied die-hards still control the direction of domestic public opinion.

Perhaps they are not as good as the Japanese in terms of propaganda, but they still have a strong voice outside the Eighth Route Army base areas.

While constantly creating military friction, these people also spread rumors, slandering the Eighth Route Army as wandering instead of attacking, and attacking friendly forces instead of Japan, which caused some people who did not know the truth to doubt the people's troops.

While everyone was still savoring this passage, Li Yunlong in the crowd suddenly shouted: "Danger is now! Only responsibility!"

The division commander was not angry because his speech was interrupted. On the contrary, the smile on his face deepened. He has always admired his former guard. Although he had some minor problems, he seemed to have grown a lot recently.

“Li Yunlong, it seems that you have read a lot of books recently? This makes a lot of sense! But your new second group has just been established not long ago. Aren't you afraid of losing all your wealth?”

Li Yunlong walked out of the crowd, looked at the old leader in front of him, and said firmly:

“I'm not even a soldier! I have to stand up at critical moments. This responsibility has been integrated into my blood and rooted in my heart.”

Hearing these words, the division commander took the lead in applauding. Amidst the applause of the crowd, he shouted loudly:

"The significance of this operation is very great. We not only want to break the enemy's blockade, but also bring hope to the people in the enemy-occupied areas, destroy the luck of the capitulationists, and let the Japanese know that our Eighth Route Army will never fall! "

“All troops participating in the war prepare a month's worth of rations! This operation will last at least seven days! At 20:00 on August 20, all troops will start attacking at the same time!”

“You guys remember this! Our goal is to overturn all the railway tracks! Blow up all the bridges! Not a single sleeper can be left for the devils!”

During the following period, several division staff officers began to explain the specific arrangements one-on-one to the regiment commanders. Regarding the attack on the Zhengtai Line this time, some militiamen and civilians will cooperate with the main force.

The so-called people's war does not mean letting unarmed civilians face the invaders. The soldiers and the people are the foundation of victory. Only when the people are united in an organized and planned way can we be considered a force to resist Japan. The main way for the masses to participate in the war is through transportation and intelligence, and this raid was no exception. When it is safe, ordinary people will help the Eighth Route Army cut wires, pull out road spikes, take out sleepers, and pull rails.

After all the task assignments were completed, Li Yunlong sneaked up to the artillery battalion commander and took his arm. The big boss, who was usually fearless, looked a little embarrassed at this time.

“Old Wang, if we have a chance to be in the same area on the battlefield, then your artillery battalion must help me fire two rounds.”

After hearing this, Battalion Commander Wang smiled and patted the other party on the shoulder and said:

"As you said, if we were in an area, how could I not help you? Do you think we are still as stingy as before? Let me tell you, the situation is different now, our battalion has enough artillery shells!"

With the other party's assurance, Captain Li took out a pack of cigarettes with a smile. Seeing this good thing, the smoking commanders around him cheered and gathered around.

At this time, Li Yunlong was very free and easy, as if he was not the person who plucked the geese's feathers before. Seeing the other party's cheerful look, Battalion Commander Wang couldn't help but complain:

　　"You don't think you really have that much dignity, do you? Do you think you are the king of heaven?"

“You don't know who got these shells for us, right? When our battalion went to the Logistics Department yesterday, Deputy Minister Huang specifically told me to take care of your regiment when I have the chance.”

“With such a fellow countryman, you, Li Yunlong, really did countless good deeds in your last life.”

At the same time, Huang He, who was verifying a certain formula with Chang Jiang, suddenly sneezed. And the system in his mind began to beat, telling him that there was new activity in this host.

Huang He hurriedly ran to the bathroom to check on the pretext of going to the bathroom. As soon as the system was opened, a decision that had just been passively unlocked came into view.

“Hundred Regiment Battle: So far we have focused on organizing small-scale battles and ambushes. Battles like Pingxingguan have not happened for a long time. Perhaps the enemy thinks that we are not a concern except as a nuisance.

But if they are immersed in this false sense of security, then we will definitely send them a massive attack.

Now is the time for the whole world to see the power of our Eighth Route Army!

Effect: The production capacity of military factories and civilian factories in the system is increased by 25%. Duration: 180 days.」

Although Huang He had some guesses about the effect of "Hundred Regiments War" based on the previous decisions to unlock passively, he did not expect that it would actually be a production capacity bonus that would last for half a year.

Just when he was about to shut down the system and leave the bathroom, another message popped up on the interface:

“People's War: Other countries may be superstitious that the key to winning a war lies in tactics and firepower, but our troops have long understood that nothing can compare to the support of the people.

Everything we do is for the fundamental interests of the people and represents the direction of future development. Now is the time to show the enemy how great the people are who are fighting tenaciously!

Effect: Rifle equipment construction speed +10% Support equipment construction speed +50%"

After reading these two new decisions, Huang He was shocked and speechless. Taking into account the bonuses of "Protracted War" and "Mobile War", the production capacity of the factories in the system now astounds him.

After rough calculations, with just the few factories on hand, he was confident that he could assemble the equipment of three full divisions within a year, and it would also be enough to support a full company.

If the famine crisis in two years' time can be solved, the army's manpower resources will definitely increase by leaps and bounds. By then, it would not be a problem to liberate the entire Jin Province in 1942, and we could even counterattack the entire North China if we had aircraft.

While Huang He was still making calculations, the deputy general manager and deputy general staff officer of the distant headquarters were looking at the combat map around them. It seemed that a meeting had just ended in the combat headquarters.

“Currently, the Japanese have formulated a cage policy for our guerrilla warfare. This leaves us with only two complete base areas. It seems that Xiaosheng wants to weave a big net to completely trap us.”

“How do you write the Chinese character for prison? Has anyone seen what a prison looks like? The Japanese want to trap us to death, so we must tear down this cage and rewrite the Chinese character for prison!”

At this point, the vice president patted his belt, looked at his old buddy and said:

“After this war is over, I will give you a new one!”

A sentence suddenly occurred to me: Why is it cheap to mobilize troops?

Because they have dedicated everything to the motherland and do not need any subsidies.

They only need a loyal rifle and a fur coat made by their mother.
