The Chief of Staff paused for a moment and continued to report: "Information shows that in order to save the more than 100,000 victims left to the National Salvation Army, the National Salvation Army is mobilizing food from pacification. Those foods are the military rations they previously reserved, temporarily stabilizing the victims and avoiding unrest."

"But because they have limited military rations, this situation will definitely not last long. We estimate that in a month, the military rations they have reserved will be eaten up."

"In order not to prevent the situation in the defense zone from getting out of control because of these hundreds of thousands of victims, the National Salvation Army is purchasing grain on a large scale in their defense zone."

"But now is the time when the green and yellow people are not in a position to meet the needs of more than 100,000 victims, although the price of the grain they bought was very high, they did not receive much food, which could not meet the needs of more than 100,000 victims!"

"We roughly calculated that even if the National Salvation Army purchased all the excess grain in their defense zone, they still needed at least five million kilograms of grain to survive until the autumn harvest!"

"Yo Xi! You did this very well!" The army commander finally showed a satisfied smile on his calm face.

I immediately ordered: "I remember that there were many of our intelligence personnel hidden among these more than 100,000 victims, and ordered them not to act rashly."

"We must wait until the National Rescue Army has completely cut off food. More than 100,000 people have no food. They are hungry and then take action. We will find ways to organize disaster victims to destroy and grab food in the National Rescue Army defense zone, grab the people, mess up the National Rescue Army's defense zone, and dismantle the national rescue army's morale and people's hearts from within."

"The troops confronting the National Salvation Army must strengthen their vigilance, guard the blockade line, and prevent a piece of food from flowing into the National Salvation Army's defense zone."

"At the same time, we cannot give the National Salvation Army any opportunity to grab food from our occupied areas, so I asked the frontline troops to relocate all the landlords and gentry within thirty kilometers around the blockade line and transfer all the food around the blockade line to the hinterland of our occupied areas."

"The intelligence department will find another way to reveal the news of the national rescue army's shortage of food to the Second War Zone."

"They want to use our hands to consume the National Saving Army, and they will definitely not miss this opportunity to weaken the National Saving Army."

"Only when they act together and isolate the National Salvation Army and do not provide them with food, the National Salvation Army will fall into a desperate situation that is called "Daily Day and Earth" and "Dimensional Earth is not suitable."

"When the time comes, we will take the initiative to extend an olive branch to them, and we will definitely force them to submit. In the end, we have to join us and become a sharp blade for the Shanxi garrison!"

In a huge house, more than twenty officers with the ranks of lieutenants and lieutenants gathered here. Two people were on the table, some were fiddling with abacus and calculating something, and some were writing quickly and registering next to them.

Most of the officers here are former civilians of the provincial government.

As the scale of the war grows bigger and bigger, the territory controlled by the theater continues to shrink, and the original huge organization of the provincial government has lost its meaning and is unnecessary.

In order to reduce expenses, the headquarters decisively dispatched a large number of civilian personnel to supplement the theater command.

Those civilians have all studied and are educated and are definitely more competent in positions of staff and clerk than ordinary people, which is also considered to be a good use of the goods.

Half of the more than 20 documents in this house were civilian personnel drawn from the provincial government, and there were many talents in agriculture and water conservancy.

For them, calculating data and fiddling abacus here every day is neither fun nor a waste of life, and they are completely unable to use what they have learned, and they cannot do what they are good at.

But in order to survive, to get military pay, and to do their best to fight against the war, they had to lower their heads and stay here every day as a documentary.

"Tan Ming...Li Yueping...Dong Hao...Xiao Youwei..." You four came out!" The voice of their direct subordinates suddenly sounded at the door.

The four people named were all very young and looked very literary. They had gone to college and high school.

Before the War of Resistance Against Japan, they all worked in the provincial government and received treatment that others envied.

At that time, everyone felt that they were superior, and they were full of energy and respected everywhere they went...

After the War of Resistance began, their departments became more and more marginalized, and in the end they had nothing to do, even the funds of the departments were cut off by the superiors...

In order to make money and survive, I had to respond to the call of the war zone and register to enter the war zone headquarters as an ordinary document.

After two years, the sharpness and water chestnuts of several people have been smoothed out, and they almost forgot that they are talents in agriculture and water conservancy.

When the four of them heard the order, they all showed an inexplicable expression.

Since they arrived at the logistics office, they have been working on time and getting off work on time every day, especially by the rules, and the commander has never looked for them alone.

Now is the critical moment for doing things, but the commander asked himself to go out. Something must have happened, but they have not done any mistakes in the past few days, nor have they violated any discipline.

Although my mind was in a mess and I didn't know what the chief was calling him out, I still put down my work as soon as possible...

The chief in charge of them was a major. He looked at them without saying a word of nonsense and ordered directly: "Just received the instructions from the peak, the four of you were transferred..."

"I will give you ten minutes to hand over the work at hand, and then go to the headquarters to report that someone will pick you up..."

In the Office of the Commander-in-Chief, the Chief of Staff was reporting his arrangement just now: "Commander-in-Chief, the ten people who promised the National Rescue Army in the war zone have set off... I sent a guard platoon to escort them to the blockade line. After crossing the blockade line, the remaining road depends on the intelligence department and themselves. Under normal circumstances, you can meet the National Rescue Army's support troops for three consecutive nights."

The commander-in-chief frowned and replied: "I still can't figure out why Zhou Cheng had to exchange five thousand dollars for these ten literati who were powerless."

"Is it possible that the National Rescue Army will develop agriculture on a large scale and build water conservancy in the areas they occupied?"

"This is too unrealistic. The defense zone of the National Salvation Army was surrounded by Japanese and puppet troops, and he had just turned against the Eighth Route Army and had become an isolated army without any foreign aid."

"If the Japanese and puppet troops take the opportunity to launch an attack, they will even protect themselves. They will definitely have no chance or energy to build water conservancy in the defense zone and carry out large-scale agricultural production!"

The Chief of Staff did not understand this problem: "Sir, no matter what the purpose of the National Salvation Army is, I think this matter is beneficial to us without any harm, and there is nothing to imagine."

The commander-in-chief nodded: "I hope so!"

"But the intelligence department still wants to kill the National Salvation Army. No matter what their abnormal movements are, they must report to me as soon as possible."

"If you have the chance, you must find a way to exchange the National Rescue Army with us for ten people...

At 8 o'clock in the evening, all ten people from the war zone agreed to the National Rescue Army crossed the blockade line of the Japanese and puppet troops, protected by the intelligence department, and continued to head towards the National Rescue Army Defense Zone.

Because they had entered the Japanese occupied area, even if the commander-in-chief regretted it now, it would be too late to recover the ten people.

At ten o'clock in the evening, the commander-in-chief, who had been busy for a day, was about to rest and sleep when the chief of staff was seen by him.

The commander-in-chief knew something had happened again at a glance. He asked helplessly, "What's wrong with it?"

The Chief of Staff was embarrassed to report: "The intelligence department just collected a piece of intelligence, which has something to do with the National Salvation Army and the Japanese."

"I think the situation is very important, so I came here so late. Please forgive me for the Commander-in-Chief."

"Say..." The commander-in-chief did not respond, and looked at the chief of staff and said bluntly as an order.

"The intelligence says: Before the Japanese army threw away Shouyang and Yangquan, they sent troops to steal all the people in the occupied areas. They could snatch all the food, clothing, and use, and snatch them all, and those that could not be snatched away were destroyed on the spot, resulting in more than 100,000 victims in Shouyang and Yangquan all at once."

"These hundreds of thousands of people not only have no food to eat, they don't have clothes to wear, no covers, and even iron pots for cooking and farm tools for spring farming..."

The Japanese threw them all to the National Savior Army at one time, which forced the National Savior Army to take out their precious military rations to help the victims."

"The military rations are limited, but there are too many victims who need their relief, so it will definitely not last long."

"In order to stabilize the situation, the National Salvation Army had to purchase food on a large scale in their defense zone..."

"Even so, if you want to keep more than 100,000 victims alive until the autumn harvest, the food shortage of the national rescue army still exceeds five million kilograms."

"In order to force the National Rescue Army into a desperate situation, the Japanese not only began to control the grain reserves on the blockade, but also transferred all the food near the blockade to the hinterland of their occupied areas, and did not give the National Rescue Army any chance to grab grain."

"I also think this is a good opportunity to consume the strength of saving the country. We should also learn from the Japanese, strengthen the blockade, and not give the national rescue army the opportunity to obtain food from us!"

"I finally understand!" The commander-in-chief seemed not listening to the Chief of Staff's report, and suddenly said something the Chief of Staff didn't understand.

Seeing the commander-in-chief suddenly realize, the Chief of Staff couldn't help asking.

"Commander-in-Chief, what do you understand?"

The commander-in-chief replied confidently: "I know why the National Salvation Army used 5,000 yuan to exchange ten people from the war zone."

"The National Salvation Army lacks food, and the ten people they just replaced are all talents related to farming."

"Under their guidance, the grain output of the National Salvation Military Defense Zone will definitely increase, and then they will no longer have to worry about food."

The Chief of Staff also showed a sudden enlightenment after hearing this.

But soon my brows frowned again: "Commander-in-Chief, I think there is something wrong with it."

"Even if Zhou Chengzhen is planning to improve the grain output in the defense zone of the National Salvation Military through these ten people, he will have to wait until the autumn harvest to see the results."

"The food in the National Salvation Military Defense Zone was not enough to last until the autumn harvest."

"Once the food in the defense zone is out of stock, more than 100,000 victims will become a gunpowder barrel that may explode at any time. Any slightest movement can cause riots, and then disrupt their defense zones and damage their military morale."

"So the ten people Zhou Cheng was leaving were not helpful to the National Salvation Army to solve the current difficulties."

"It's true!" The commander-in-chief frowned.

Then slowly recovered from peace, and was happy to order: "Since that's the case, we will also add a fire to this matter."

"Chief of Staff, let's arrange it. From now on, the National Rescue Army is not allowed to obtain a piece of food from the war zone, and it is not okay to buy it with money."

"As for the ten people Zhou Cheng was leaving, since it was not helpful to the National Savior Army to solve the current difficulties, it added ten words to the National Savior Army. Let them continue to move forward and not call them back."
