Chapter 650 Zhou Cheng is being tricked
"It's time to eat, everyone has finished work and eat..." The most anticipated voices of the disaster victims finally rang on the construction site every day.
The eyes of more than two thousand people became hot at the same time, and they looked at their own team leaders.
In order to facilitate the management of a large number of disaster victims, the Water Conservancy Department first divided them into dozens of groups based on the village, and each group elected a trustworthy villager as the group leader, and organized everyone to do things and have dinner together.
Four or five different groups combined into a team and arranged a team leader to manage them uniformly.
Compared with ordinary victims, the team leader did not have any special treatment. After a morning of physical labor, he himself was hungry.
As soon as he heard the order to eat, the team members below shouted: "Everyone packs up their tools and prepares to go back for dinner. Have a good rest in the afternoon after the meal!"
Several large wooden barrels and baskets were placed in the middle of the simple shack at the foot of the mountain, covered with things and steaming.
You don’t need to guess that the box must contain wild vegetables and grain pancakes that everyone is tired of eating, and the bucket contains wild vegetables and grain porridge that can be seen from the bottom.
When you are lucky, some minced meat will be cooked in the wild vegetables and grain porridge and floated a little oil painting to let everyone eat a little oil. Under normal circumstances, the wild vegetable porridge in the bucket is like rice soup.
"Mixed grain cakes, the cakes we ate today were not filled with wild vegetables! Villagers, we don't have to eat wild vegetables today, the porridge is also sticky millet porridge!" The first victim who rushed to the box shouted excitedly.
"How is it possible? The food on the upper house has long been gone, so I am just waiting to collect potatoes to satisfy everyone's hunger. How could I give us millet porridge? It must be because they were dazzled by it!" Most of the people's reactions were disbelief, and they denied the news they heard.
"It's really a mixed grain pancake and millet porridge, he read that right..."
"That's great. Finally I had a meal of mixed grain cakes without wild vegetables..."
After more and more screams rang around the barrel, everyone finally began to believe this fact.
They were like hungry wolves, holding their rice bowls, rushing towards the wooden barrels desperately, wanting to see everyone talking about the mixed grains and millet porridge.
Looking at the sticky millet porridge in the wooden barrel and the yellow grain forces in the basket, everyone was swallowing.
Local cadres responsible for maintaining the order seized the opportunity and shouted: "Friends, in order to make everyone full and have the strength to work, the National Saving Army spent a huge price to get us food. Starting today, our food rations have increased from four taels per capita to one pound, each person is divided into three taels of fine grains and seven taels of miscellaneous grains every day to ensure that everyone can eat full, and no longer eat wild vegetable cakes and drink wild vegetable porridge every day like before!"
"At noon today, one person will have a large bowl of millet porridge and two mixed grain cakes. After eating, we will have a good rest for an afternoon. Starting tomorrow, we will have two meals a day. But we can no longer do it for half a day like we are now, and we have to do things in the morning and afternoon."
"In addition, in order to encourage everyone's enthusiasm for doing things, starting tomorrow, every 100 people will select ten people who are the most active and do the most. Each person in the top three will be rewarded with an extra pound of grain every day, and each person in the fourth to tenth will be rewarded with half a pound of grain every day. These rewarded grains can be eaten by themselves or left for their families. In order to ensure fairness, the ranking candidates are decided by everyone, so as long as everyone works hard, everyone has the opportunity to receive these rewards!"
For victims who have been hungry for a month or two, the temptation of food is something that nothing can resist.
After eating the mixed grain cakes with millet porridge, everyone showed a satisfied smile.
When most of the victims started to rest, some people had already begun to think about how to do more tomorrow, so as to be selected into the top ten and receive the commendation promised by the National Salvation Army.
After the National Salvation Army raised everyone's food standards, it was possible to eat enough.
But the wives and children who stayed at home were still hungry. Each of them had only four taels of food per day, and they had to continue to reclaim land. The situation was not much better than before.
Now there is a chance to fill them up, so many people don’t want to miss it…
Driven by three million kilograms of grain, the speed of water conservancy construction in the defense zone is getting faster and faster.
At this moment, the war zone's order to demand the National Rescue Army to attack the Zhengtai Railway finally arrived.
Tang Yufeng's reaction was the most intense. After watching it, he was in a fire: "Why, when we were about to cut off food and starve to death, we sent telegrams to the war zone every day. As a result, they not only did not provide help, but also secretly tripped us up, implying that the surrounding troops were not allowed to sell us a piece of food."
"Now there is a place that can be used to help our National Salvation Army. Just send a telegram to us to attack. This is not too much to take our National Salvation Army seriously. If you call it, you will go away. Even if you raise a dog, you won't do such an excessive move."
"Captain, I think we should be too tit for tooth. The war zone used to ignore the rescue telegrams sent to them by our National Salvation Army, and now we ignore the order telegrams they gave us. Just pretend that we have not received this telegram, and see if they will treat our National Salvation Army like this in the future."
Zhou Cheng snorted coldly and replied: "Forget it, they are actually doing damage in our defense zone, which is too much."
"Old Tang, do you still remember the rumors that our National Rescue Army was going to cut off food? It has been found out that the culprit is the war zone."
"They want to mess up our defense zone with rumors, make more than 100,000 victims alike, make sabotage in our defense zone, and create opportunities for the Japanese to attack us."
"This is to punish our national rescue army to death. This account must be settled with them."
Zheng Yunshan, who was standing beside him, suddenly said, "Captain, Lao Tang, I think this is not as simple as we imagined."
"Our development plan for a long time in the future is to wander between the Japanese and puppet troops and the war zone. No one on both sides will offend or take sides. They will take advantage of their enlistment and concerns about the national rescue army to gain benefits and take the opportunity to grow and grow."
"When the war zone is asked to break the Zhengtai Railway at this time, isn't that destroying the relationship between us and the Japanese and puppet troops who finally eased it?"
"The Zhengtai Railway is very important to the Japanese and puppet troops. The war zone not only allowed us to break the Zhengtai Railway, but also caused us to interrupt the railway for at least half a month."
"If we do this, we will not only anger the Japanese troops stationed in Shanxi, but also offend the entire Japanese army in North China, and hate us to the core."
"At that time, the Shanxi garrison will definitely not dare to offend the North China Front Army to continue to incorporate us."
"Maybe the North China Front Army will see the problem of insufficient troops in Shanxi due to this incident, and then draw a large number of troops from other places to reinforce Shanxi's garrisons, and gather heavy troops again to continue to sweep us."
"If the Japanese Shanxi garrisons have stopped their idea of winning over us, the plan we have already formulated cannot be implemented. Instead, it will attract more retaliatory sweeps from the Japanese and puppet troops, bringing huge pressure to the military and civilians in the defense zone."
"In addition, if there is any major operation in the war zone, we will cooperate with them to break the Zhengtai Railway, cut off the Japanese logistics supply line, and provide them with some necessary support. This order is reasonable."
"But the intelligence department has not received any news of a major operation in the war zone recently."
"It means that the war zone asked us to break the Zhengtai Railway was made suddenly by them. There was no purpose or reason. Then there was some saying behind this order, and it was definitely not as simple as we saw on the surface!"
Zheng Yunshan reminded that Zhou Chengru thought of the action team sent by the war zone when he bought grain from the Japanese.
On the surface, the purpose of the Operation Team was to prevent the National Rescue Army from purchasing food from the Japanese.
If you think about it carefully, you will find that the war zone also has the purpose of destroying the relationship between the National Rescue Army and the Japanese and Puppet Army, otherwise they would not have allowed the operation team to operate in the National Rescue Army uniform.
It is obvious that they want to frame and destroy the trust of both sides, destroy the relationship between the two troops, make the Japanese resent the national rescue army again, and then continue to send troops to sweep the national rescue army, so that they can reap the benefits of the fisherman.
What disappointed the war zone was that their actions were not only unsuccessful, but also caused a lot of trouble and suffered heavy losses.
Now the transaction between the National Salvation Army and the Japanese was successfully completed, and the National Salvation Army began to withdraw troops from the blockade line the next day.
At that time, I didn't think much about it, but I just felt that the Japanese garrison troops in Shanxi were insufficient. Since the blockade line had greatly reduced its effect on the national rescue army, it would be better to transfer the troops to the places where they needed it.
It now seems that in addition to the reason for the lack of troops in their own forces, the Japanese army also had other plans to mobilize troops from the blockade line.
Looking at Tang Yufeng and Zheng Yunshan, he cursed angrily: "Old Tang, Lao Zheng, and the Chief of Staff, we were fooled by the Japanese!"
"They dispatched troops from the blockade line, and in addition to reinforce other battlefields, they also made the war zone misunderstand us."
"Old Zheng, your previous reminder is correct: the Japanese transferred troops from the blockade line as soon as the transaction was completed, and there is indeed a lot of connection here."
"At that time, we only thought about food relations and didn't think about it anywhere else."
"In the eyes of outsiders, we and the Japanese and puppet army are life-and-death enemies that are incompatible with water and fire. The Japanese and puppet army hope that our national rescue army will become in chaos because of food shortage. They will take the opportunity to eliminate our national rescue army."
"But the result is very different: the Japanese and puppet troops, as life-and-death opponents, are actually willing to sell food to the national rescue army."
"Idiots will think this is extraordinary. There must be hidden secrets of confidence behind this transaction."
"The most likely situation is that we agreed to the Japanese and puppet troops, otherwise why would they sell us food?"
"As soon as the transaction ended, the Japanese and puppet troops withdrew from the blockade line, and this move further proves everyone's speculation."
"If the National Salvation Army and the Japanese and puppet troops did not reach a secret agreement, why would they withdraw their troops from the blockade?"
"The war zone must have such an idea. They didn't want to see us approaching the Japanese, so they came up with the trick to break the Zhengtai Railway. Through this incident, the Japanese wanted to incorporate us completely. "
"At that time, we will have to fight to the end with the Japanese and puppet troops and continue to fight."
"In the war zone, you can continue to reap the benefits of the fisherman! It's so calculating!"
Chapter completed!
