Rise From Eight Hundred Chapter 907

Chapter 907 Mobilization Order (Part 2)

Of course, the Wang family is not the only one in Licheng County.

As early as half a month ago when the genius general envisioned the battle of Shentou Ridge, he had already used the intelligence personnel in the city to figure out the big and small forces in Li City.

As a small county town deep in the mountains, Licheng has very strong local influence. The county magistrate arranged by Old Man Yan is basically a mascot. The four major local families have the most say in Licheng.

The Wang family has been operating in Licheng for a hundred years and is the head of the four major families. In addition, only the Zhao, Han and Gao families can compete with it, which maintains a balance.

This is actually very Chinese, and they all pay attention to finding a balance point that everyone can accept through constant compromise.

The Japanese army came, and the Wang family, which had long been entrenched in Licheng and could not leave, simply chose to kneel down. The Zhao and Gao families were still slightly stronger. If we couldn't beat them, we could hide. We took the cash and the core members of the family to pat our butts and go to Shaanxi Province. After running away, some peripheral members of the family were left in Licheng to wait and see what would happen.

The other person who stayed in Licheng was the Han family. Although they also chose to surrender to the Japanese army, they were not as shameless as the Wang family. Not only did they give away a large amount of goods to the Japanese army, they also gave away their ancestral home.

However, the Japanese are also a very strange nation. Like the Wang family, they kneel down and lick without shame. They don't take the Wang family too seriously. However, the Han family doesn't kneel down and treat them like dogs. The Japanese troops stationed in Licheng don't take it either. What are they doing?

After all, the Han family occupies most of the two major industries of Licheng, transportation and cloth. The North China Front Army, which wants to obtain blood transfusions from occupying the county town, will naturally not easily destroy such commercial institutions unless they have a tendency to rebel.

But there is no doubt that the Japanese monitor them much more closely, so the 683 brigade intelligence officers did not instigate the Han family to transport weapons from them to the city. Instead, they played a trick under the light and directly used the Japanese without taking precautions. The Wang family caravan.

It can only be said that after ten years of battle of wits and courage with the "Principal", the big bosses of the 80th Group Army have all been upgraded. The Japanese in Jin Province are facing the "Tuba" who is close to the full level! They are just weapons, but brainstorming is absolutely powerful.

The leader of the Licheng County businessmen that the intelligence officers found for Tang Dao is the current patriarch of the Han family, Han Shichong!

A fat man with a chubby body and a smile on his face!

The standard image of a businessman, even when faced with Tang Dao, the fat man who was not too guilty and somewhat knowledgeable passed through the murderous guard company and saluted the stern-faced army colonel.

Tang Dao, who already had this information in his hand, didn't waste much time and told the businessman in front of him directly: "Although our regiment has captured Licheng, the Japanese army is too powerful and will not stay in Licheng for a long time. They will mainly stay in mountainous areas. The massive supplies captured in the Japanese army's baggage warehouse will also be moved to the original station.

However, because the Four Troops will also be fighting the Japanese army, enough labor is needed to move the materials. However, the labor is not in vain. All people involved in moving the materials will be paid.

Moreover, all ordinary people who are willing to follow the Four Lines Group to retreat to the mountainous areas will receive food subsidies and materials for their houses. No one will lose their ability to survive because they go to the mountainous areas. The Four Lines Group will provide adult men and women with Provide enough jobs and pay them.

Merchants like them who have worked for the Japanese invaders and now sincerely regret it, as long as they can show the corresponding strength to complete this big move, they will receive cash remuneration. Because it is wartime, all remuneration will be 50% of the normal remuneration. Distributed twice.

Furthermore, if merchants like them are willing, Si Xing Tuan will give them a business license around Si Xing Tuan's residence based on the evaluation! "

A businessman is a businessman, and Han Shichong immediately realized the huge profits involved. Tang Dao paid five times the remuneration, and as long as he hired people to move the goods at four times the remuneration, he could earn twice the commission. In other words, being beaten by the four There were a total of five merchants including him who were greeted by the group. The more people the merchant hired, the greater the profit he would gain.

As for whether Tang Dao will fulfill his promise, Han Shichong has no pressure at all. After the Japanese army entered the city, not to mention the Wang family who knelt down and sent a large amount of property. His Han family alone gave away all of it under pressure. 20 large yellow croakers, which have been the foundation of the Han family for many years, it makes me feel so sad that I don't want to give them up.

As for Licheng, a small county town, it is not a big provincial town like Yuancheng. Even if the Japanese took the money, they would have no place to spend it. The Si Xing Tuan directly packaged it for the Japanese this time. I think this batch of goods fell to Si Xing again. In the hands of the tour group.

Otherwise, the young colonel named Tang in front of him would not be so confident.

As he thought about it more deeply, Han Shichong's mind started to spin even more.

Who do these businessmen want to do business with? Isn't that just following people?

Licheng County has a total population of six to seven thousand. If all of them fled into the mountains with the Four Troops, who would these merchants be trading with, the Japanese or the air?

Businessmen, you have to follow people!

If the common people followed the Si Xing Regiment to retreat to the mountainous areas and wanted to survive there, food was the first factor for survival. There was nothing wrong with the Si Xing Regiment distributing food as rewards for having captured a large amount of food from the Japanese army.

But human life is not just about having food, but also clothing, food, housing, and transportation. If the Four Banks Group provides jobs and pays remuneration, it must be in the form of cash. With cash, you can do business. Well?

Even though it is a mountainous area, as long as there is a sufficient population, it might as well be another Li city! Who said the county seat can't be changed?

When the Japanese dog Lao Wang and the others come back, Juebi will be dumbfounded when faced with an empty Li city!

“Mr. Tang, please rest assured. Our Han family will definitely call on the people in the city to cooperate with your army to deliver these supplies to your army's garrison!” Han Shichong, who was quick-thinking, thought clearly and patted his chest as a guarantee. "Also, Chief Tang, please be sure to look at the performance of my Han family and give my Han family and other honest merchants in Licheng an opportunity to do business near your army's station."

“Okay!” Tang Dao was very satisfied with the attitude of the man in front of him.

Not only can he cater to the superiors, he fully expresses his confidence in the army, but he also takes the opportunity to express his own opinions. What is most commendable is his decisiveness.

Not everyone can trust a small infantry regiment, and for the first time, they want to take thousands of civilians into the mountains, even if they have just wiped out a thousand Japanese troops.

Life and fighting are two different things!

"Sir, why do you trust these unscrupulous merchants and pay them such high transportation fees? If they secretly defect to the Japanese and spread the secrets of our station, the Japanese will definitely attack us." Cai Yongguan, who rarely questioned Tang Dao's orders since joining the Four Elements Group, frowned and asked.

Even if Guo Shouzhi on the side gave him a wink, Tang Tuanzuo is the boss, and the boss can only make decisions after consulting with a few deputies at the regiment headquarters. Then it is your turn as a junior company commander to question him?

Unexpectedly, Tang Dao was not angry. Instead, he smiled and explained to Cai Yongguan: "It's very simple. Although we already control the entire county, they who once controlled the economic lifeline of this city know this county better than us. We want to Moving this small mountain of supplies and retreating the people who were willing to avoid the Japanese front, without them, our efficiency would be extremely low.

Professional matters should be left to professionals. "

Seeing that Cai Yongguan was still scratching his head, Tang Dao explained patiently: "Although they bowed their heads to the little devil, when it comes to the choice of life and death, they just made the most normal choice for ordinary people, as long as they did not harm the Chinese people. , then they are still Chinese, and we cannot completely beat them to death. Otherwise, if there are so many ordinary people still living in the Japanese-occupied areas, how can we regard them as traitors when we counterattack one day?

As for whether they are wall-riding factions who seem to be defecting to us, but secretly defect to the Japanese, the regiment will set up a security department to monitor these businesses and some key groups, and strive to reduce these risks.

And the secrets of the station that you are worried about are known to them. There is no need at all now. You don't know what our station is like now! Besides stone and wooden houses, what else is there? And even if there are those factories we want in the future, they will be strictly separated from residential areas. They are important military areas and cannot be approached by ordinary people. This geographical location planning is being done by the top students in the geography department under Teacher Xiao He. "

“But even without them, we can get all the people in the city to follow us. Aren't they afraid of the Japanese?” Cai Yongguan, who had somewhat figured it out, asked again. "Hey, you can ask your battalion commander this question, he should give you a good answer." Tang Dao smiled.

Cai Yongguan, in terms of bravery, can be ranked among the top three infantry company commanders in the entire regiment, but he is somewhat iron-headed and naive. He is far less quick-thinking than Wei Donglai. It is estimated that he will be the leader of the regiment in the future.

However, Tang Dao still liked this straight-tempered guy who was born as a bandit. Perhaps, it was precisely because of his straightforward nature that as his comrade, he would never have to worry about bullets flying from behind!

The human heart is the most complex thing in the world! Being pure is what many people want, and Tang Dao is no exception.

Seeing Cai Yongguan looking at him in confusion, Guo Shouzhi, an old Jianghu man, sighed and said: "Hey, Yongguan, you know what it means that it is hard to leave the homeland!"

Yes, if it weren't for the inability to leave their homeland, how could there be more than 7,000 people still staying in the city when the Japanese army arrived? Even though they knew that the notorious Japanese army might loot and massacre the city.

Of course, in addition to being unable to leave the homeland, there is also the 'lucky bias' mentality that most people have. The Japanese can't just massacre all the Chinese in the occupied areas! What if they change gender?

This is also the reason why when war comes, there are many displaced refugees, but more civilians choose to stay in their homeland.

They put their fate in the hands of a group of beasts!

But who can say anything about them?

They are just the most ordinary people in this cruel world. They just want to live! Not everyone has received a good education, and not everyone has thought about the meaning of life. Keeping their parents, wives and children fed is their driving force.

As for why Tang Dao used a large amount of food to lure the people of Licheng to evacuate to the mountains with them, even Cai Yongguan, who has a straightforward personality, knows it.

　　It's not that the Sihang Group needs a large number of people to reserve for the future industrial zone, but that it is already impossible not to leave.

Thousands of **** corpses of Japanese invaders were placed in the city. The Japanese army carefully prepared the luggage for more than half a month to make wedding clothes for the Si Xing Regiment. Anyone who saw this would be furious! Not to mention the Japanese.

The Japanese army will definitely retaliate.

　　Si Xing Tuan moved their things and ran away. Who is the target of revenge? It can only be the people of Licheng.

Perhaps, an unbearable massacre will occur after this victory, which is something the Chinese army never wants to see.

Therefore, Tang Dao would rather spend a lot of money and food to move all these people to the mountainous areas, which can not only allow them to escape disaster, but also increase the population base around the station, and the labor force will be much larger than before, which can be regarded as killing two birds with one stone.

This should also be Tang Dao's confidence after seeing more than 200,000 kilograms of grain, not to mention nearly 2,000 kilograms of gold. If based on the current exchange rate, it would be more than one million oceans. With this money, he can raise ten thousand kilograms of gold. There would be no problem holding the number one for a year or two, not to mention that the Four Elements Group would never sit idle for such a long time.

Han Shichong only figured this out after he left.

Rather than transporting supplies more quickly, what the young captain wanted to save might be the lives of the entire city.

To be honest, even this "old landlord" who is used to bathing in the whirlpool of money still admires Tang Dao.

This guy! He is a multi-faceted creature. No matter how sinister a capitalist is, he may be infected by some indescribable nobleness at some point.

Fatty Han, who devoted all his efforts, showed the greatest efficiency in his life. Before Tang Dao led the main force to leave the city, he led his newly established Licheng 'Rescue Business Federation' to start organizing people to move supplies.

However, it was not the Japanese army baggage that the Si Xing Regiment had just captured, but the supplies of the residents in the city themselves.

This man, who has deceived at least two thousand people, decided to move his family to the depths of the Taihang Mountains, including his family's furniture, pots and pans, and even the roof beams and window lattice.

All businesses with cars and horses in Licheng participated in helping residents relocate for free.

As these two thousand people start to take action, people have a herd mentality, and more and more people will follow.

It is conceivable that the final city of Li will only become an empty city.

These thousands of residents will place their personal belongings in designated areas in the mountains, and then participate in the seizure and relocation by the Four Lines Group. Together with the baggage companies and people from the station, it will form a scene in the next few days. Spectacular sight: more than 10,000 people carrying food back and forth on a mountain road of more than 30 kilometers, like hard-working ants!

So what are the Japanese doing?

Of course he was being beaten.

Leaving two infantry companies in the city to maintain order and necessary security, Tang Dao led the main force to leave Licheng County. They would meet up with Lei Xiong's battalion ten miles away and rush to the finished Shento. Ridge direction.

The 683rd Brigade left the supplementary regiment that had just finished the **** battle to clean the battlefield. Its two main infantry regiments had already gone straight to the battlefield. There, a main infantry regiment that had not been deployed by the 921st Division had entered their battlefield.

Yes, the two chief officers of the 921st Division were outrageously cautious about the Battle of Shentou Ridge!

The 683 brigade dispatched three infantry regiments and four regiments to participate in this battle. They felt that it was not safe enough, and even quietly mobilized another main regiment under their command, the 769 regiment, to lurk around the battlefield.

After receiving the order from Brigadier Cheng, the regiment closest to the battlefield chosen by Brigadier Cheng has entered the battlefield in advance to build fortifications.

Meaning that when the four regiments arrive, the entire Chinese army will be able to go into battle with up to 5 regiments!

Xiong Yuan, this time, it really couldn't be worse.
