Chapter 147 hidden worries
There are undulating hills and boundless. In the distance, two eagles hover and soar under the blue sky and white clouds, as if ready to dive down at any time and launch a fatal attack on its prey. In the distance, a few wisps of smoke rose in the cooking fire, which was the place where only a few families could not call the village, and was hidden in the dark green woods.
"Our village has taken advantage of the territory." Captain Sun stood on the top of the mountain and said proudly: "The enemy has followed the road several times when they swept through the enemy, and did not take our small village backing seriously."
"That's not good. Do you still want to recruit the enemy?" Meng Youtian sighed in his heart. Although the several sweeps did not cause major casualties among Tumen Village, one sweep was a reconstruction after a sweep. Although it was tenacious, it consumed a lot of manpower and material resources.
"It's okay to say it, but there's a problem with it." Captain Sun smiled bitterly and said, "Precisely because the enemy was not bad, and relying on the mountains and forests, the villagers are not so concerned about digging tunnels."
Meng Youtian couldn't say anything, and said something ugly, such as not seeing the coffin and not crying, not only would it be useless, but it also seemed that he was not in good spirits. After pondering for a while, he slowly said: "Maybe he is not too afraid of sweeping, it's just a wind. I'm afraid that the Japanese will change their tricks and turn the sweeping area into a zoning area search or just stay in the village and don't leave, that's a bit of trouble."
"Like Xiaolouzhuang and Kangjiazhai?" Captain Sun asked tentatively, and without waiting for Meng Youtian to answer, he nodded and said, "Those two villages were not dug well enough that they had to let the enemy live in the village safely. If it were your village, or Shili Village, it would be difficult for the enemy to calm down."
Meng Youtian smiled faintly, reached out and asked, "Can you get to our village when you walk from this mountain?"
Captain Sun was stunned for a moment, looked at the mountains and thought for a while, and said uncertainly: "No one has walked by, but looking at the mountain, you can probably reach it!"
Meng Youtian nodded thoughtfully. He had always had a hidden worry, that is, the location of Tumen Village was not so superior. The enemy of this county to the north and west was originally the main threat. However, with the barriers of Xiaolouzhuang, Kangjiazhai and Shili Village, especially with the expansion and improvement of the tunnels of these villages, the threat gradually became smaller. However, the enemy of the neighboring county to the east had no barriers. Although the distance was long, it was not ruled out that the possibility of coming to join forces to sweep. Moreover, this happened once, and Tumen Village was the first to be the first to face the enemy.
Meng Youtian has always been worried about this, but it is a bit beyond reach. Although his actions have been more or less affecting other places, it is far less huge than the nearby villages. In comparison, the best place is Lianggangzhuang, which deviates from the main road and is backed by the mountains. But you can't move wherever you are safe. Meng Youtian let out a long breath and has to make up for this defect after going back.
Even if it cannot be made up for it, it will have to make the old nest in the mountains like an iron bucket and set up a few more checkpoints. The Japanese wanted to search the mountains and prevent him from reaching there. Well, Nanshankou is a good place. When I first entered, I thought the valley was quite spacious, but the more I went, the narrower it became, and it gradually became a path of lax intestine. Here we can be further repaired, making it a dangerous pass with "one man is the pass, and ten thousand men cannot open it".
Meng Youtian thought of the god for a moment. He didn't put away his thoughts and turned to look.
Xiao Man was proudly pulling her gun up, and a pheasant in the distance was still flapping. But she was already struggling to death.
"Good gunshots." Captain Sun exclaimed: "There is a gun from Brother Meng in Tumen Village, and the gun from Miss Xiao Man, which is considered safe."
"There is no such thing as being stable." Meng Youtian said with a smile: "Not to mention two guns, even two cannons are not enough! If the enemy came to sweep from a neighboring county, our village still needs your support! If we could bypass the main road and pass through this mountain."
Captain Sun nodded in contemplation and said, "This is easy to say. I will take some time to take some people into the mountains to explore the road. As long as I can reach the ridge near Shili Village, that's fine."
"Bang!" Another gunshot was heard. This time, a militia from Lianggangzhuang shot the target and glanced at Xiao Man without any reason. It seemed that she was fighting for victory and didn't want a girl to steal the limelight in Lianggangzhuang.
"It's not use rechargeable bullets, right?" Meng Youtian smiled and said, "That's right, it's really hard to master the correct bullets. But you have to learn to use them and try to use rechargeable bullets to hit the target within 100 meters. This should be possible, right?"
Ammunition has always been a major factor restricting the improvement of shooting capabilities. Although Meng Youtian tried to weaken the influence of this factor through other channels, it could not be completely eliminated. Recently, a gratifying news came from the guerrillas. After the deterrence of killing and the softening of propaganda, the guerrillas established a secret channel for purchasing ammunition from the Imperial Army. Meng Youtian knew about this secret intelligence.
But just as other bases have done, mines and ammunition are not completely free. If you want to get more, you still need to raise money in the village or mobilize various companies to buy mines. This is also impossible. Buying ammunition from the puppet army often requires hard currency, guerrillas, districts and counties to support it.
During the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, resistance activities in Japan occupied areas began to repel, and in order to suppress local resistance, a large number of Japanese regular troops were restrained. If the troops were insufficient, they had to rely on the puppet army to garrison. This would free a large number of Japanese troops for field purposes, and the Japanese army did achieve the purpose he wanted, but the puppet army really had no way to rely on.
The puppet army has always had two major problems, treatment and morale. In addition, the low equipment and combat effectiveness have always been the key objects of care for being beaten, so the puppet army quickly supplemented, with the sources of ** prisoners of war that can transform and local Chinese people - Japanese version of the capture of strong men, as well as the supplement of gangsters.
For most of the puppet troops, Japan did not supply supplies, but relied on the puppet government to raise funds. Therefore, doing business with anti-Japanese armed forces has become an important source of wealth for many puppet troops, smuggling prohibited materials and stealing arms and ammunition. In the end, the Japanese forced the Japanese to issue ammunition to the puppet troops according to bullet shells. Some puppet troops even betrayed intelligence and discard ammunition and firearms in exchange for survival. This is even more common.
It is unreliable, but it has to be used. This is the sadness of the Japanese. The emergence of a large number of puppet troops is also a kind of sadness and shame for China.
