"It doesn't matter, love is the business of you two. You choose not to announce it to the public until the moment the melon is ripe. This is your due power!" Lu Shan smiled slightly. The army is not just a fighting group.

You also need to have a bit of iron-heartedness, so that you can combine hardness and softness!

Hardness lacks softness, but cannot last long. Softness lacks hardness, and its power is insufficient. Moreover, the love between men and women is the instinctive emotion given to humans by this universe.

"Mr. Lu, we are here to apologize!" When we came, Zhang Zhongji and Yang Paifeng had reached a tacit understanding. Since Lu Shan already knew, if we find another reason to defend ourselves, it would leave a worse impression and things would become more troublesome.

"You two are very brave. One of you expands the troops privately, and the other secretly indulges them. There is no distinction between public and private. I see that you both are confused!" Before Lu Shan could speak, Qin Shiyu first shouted loudly!

Two years ago, Qin Shiyu was just a little lieutenant. Two years later, Qin Shiyu had already been appointed as the second-ranked figure in the East Anti-Japanese War!

Zhang Zhongji was already a major general at that time. After Jiangqiao's War of Resistance, he was appointed as a lieutenant general. Later, he ran away from the Soviet Union and returned. His military rank was demoted to one level. Now he is a major general. Therefore, it is not an exaggeration for Qin Shiyu to scold him.

Although Qin Shiyu had much more qualifications than Zhang Zhongji and was younger, Zhang Zhongji could not feel any dissatisfaction!

Qin Shiyu is no longer the lower-level officer he was at the beginning. He has been the deputy to Lu Shan and has walked step by step. Now he is the second-ranked figure in the East Anti-Japanese War, spanning both military and political circles. The huge Harbin has made him manage it in an orderly manner. How can this ability and skills be possessed by ordinary people?

As for Lu Shan, there is no need to say that the creator of Dong Kang, he created Dong Kang with a keen eye to recognize talents. He cultivated a group of talents and pushed some grassroots and unknown people to the stage of history!

You can underestimate his age, but you must never ignore his ability and talent!

Both Zhang Zhongji and Yang Paifeng lowered their heads in shame, their faces flushed red, and they did not dare to look at Qin Shiyu's burning eyes.

"But!" After Thunder, his tone slowed down a little, "You two finally knew that they were wrong, stopped the cliff and knew that they were coming to apologize to President Lu!"

"Old Qin. If it weren't for this military exercise, we passed by here and were moved to inspect the female barracks, I'm afraid we would still be in the dark!" Lu Shan snorted coldly.

He understood Qin Shiyu's thoughts. Both of them were talented. Don't punish them too much. The thunder sounds loudly and the raindrops are small. It's almost enough!

"Mr. Lu, we didn't think about it at the beginning..."

"Paifeng, if you are wrong, you are wrong. Don't make excuses!" Zhang Zhongji rebuked lightly.

Yang Paifeng's eyes turned red in an instant. She looked at Zhang Zhongji with grievance, opened her mouth, and finally said nothing.

"Zhang Zhongji, it's not bad. You're a man. You're a man. If you do something wrong, you're really not what man should do afterwards!" Lu Shan said, "But I want to hear what Yang Paifeng said!"

"Mr. Lu, I..."

"Mr. Lu asked you to say, just say, why are you trying to make trouble?"

"Zhang Zhongji, don't talk, let Yang Paifeng say it!" Lu Shan glared at Zhang Zhongji and ordered.

"Yes, Mr. Lu!"

"Mr. Lu, we didn't want to expand at the beginning. The female soldiers in our female barracks were basically homeless women with miserable life experiences. In the operation of suppressing bandits and cracking down on local tyrants and evil forces, we rescued many women with the same background as us. Many of them were either kidnapped by bandits or sold by their families since childhood. After we cleared out the bandits, many of them were homeless. At the beginning, the number was not large, so we could arrange for them to find some work to do their own work to support their own work.

But as our efforts to clear out, more and more people are coming, and how to place these people becomes a problem. The field hospitals and logistics units of the government cannot arrange so many people, so we thought, it is better to organize them and conduct some military training to see if there are good seedlings in it. When we fight, there will always be sacrifices. Once there are sacrifices, there will be a replacement. The number of people is increasing. So we choose some young people to form a supplementary battalion!" Yang Paifeng said.

"Lao Lu, this is indeed a very realistic problem. We did not discover it before, because men's ability to make a living is stronger than that of women. Whether it is absorbing into the army or distributing severance payments, it is a good solution!" Qin Shiyu said, "But these injured women are different. In the past, they were under the wings of bandits or these local tyrants and evil gentry. What they had to do was to please these people and get resources for survival. Now that these people have been knocked out by us, they have lost their source of life. Women can only engage in few professions, and they carry those unbearable pasts. If they are directly dismissed, they may find it difficult for them to gain a foothold in society. We do this, maybe it will be a harm to them!" Qin Shiyu said.

Lu Shan said silently. How could he not understand that although he lived a inferior life in the past and even had to sell his body and dignity, he could at least ensure that he could survive for three meals and one night.

But when they don’t have these and return to society, perhaps their fate will become even more miserable.

Without the skills to make a living, they may return to their old careers, may sell themselves as slaves again, and may starve to death on the streets!

There is no solution. If you are in a big city like Harbin, it will not be difficult to consume these rescued women.

But this is in Tongliao. In Lu Shan’s opinion, it is not as good as a town in later generations. It is still difficult to consume hundreds or thousands of such people!

“How many people are there in total?”

"There are about six or seven hundred people!" Yang Paifeng said.

"So many?" Lu Shan frowned slightly. How could there be so many people!

"We have eliminated all the bandits in Tongliao, and have also cracked down on many local tyrants and evil gentry who have caused harm to one side. We paid some women to go home or escort them home by themselves. This part of them is homeless, or they don't know where their home is!" Yang Paifeng said.

Lu Shan nodded, and there were many wars. It was common to sell children and daughters. Some of them were sold by their parents as soon as they were born, which had livelihood reasons and other reasons!

There are no fewer people who don’t know where their home is. Many maids from wealthy families bought them when they were four or five years old, and grew up with the young masters and ladies, without knowing their own background.

These people have no human rights. Once their families are in decline, the experience of these people is the most tragic. When they meet a kind-hearted master, they will give them some severance payments. When they meet a cruel person, they will sell them directly to others. In exchange for some money to continue to squander themselves!

This is too common. As for those bandits who kill without blinking, in addition to burning, killing, looting, they also have to satisfy their yinyu and robbing young women. They provide themselves with humiliation, which is even more normal!

In troubled times, women are the most miserable!

It is difficult for people in later generations to have an intuitive understanding. Bandits are inhumane. Many brainless screenwriters of boring TV series in later generations are beautifying them and almost becoming the incarnation of justice.

"And, after we set up this supplementary camp, some women who could not be resettled rescued by bandits in Zhengjiatun, Chifeng, Kailu and other places were sent to Tongliao, and we had no choice but to refuse!"

"It seems that this is not entirely your responsibility!" Qin Shiyu said thoughtfully after hearing Yang Paifeng's explanation.

"Since you have encountered resettlement difficulties, why not report it?" Lu Shan asked, "but expand the team privately?"

"Mr. Lu, we want to solve what we can solve ourselves. We can't just find the headquarters if we have any difficulties. This doesn't make us too incompetent!" Yang Zhongji said.

"I have a good idea. I just need to use my brain. This is a serious violation of military discipline. Don't you two know?" Lu Shan said.

"Now the Eastern Anti-Japanese War is all in the process of streamlining the government. Even the main force is not full. Do you know why?" Lu Shan said, "What I want is better to be insignificant than to be indiscriminate!"

"You two should understand why the headquarters has made the idea of ​​simplifying military and government. It is not because we have no money to support the troops. In fact, we can afford it. As long as we relax our requirements, let alone 100,000, we can raise all 300,000, but why do we do this? It is to build an elite invincible lion brigade. Every year, wars are in chaos, and our people are destroyed and their lives are heavy. If one of us can destroy one or several enemies, why should we use three or several to eliminate one?" Qin Shiyu said.

"Mr. Lu, we were wrong!" Zhang Zhongji and Yang Paifeng said in unison in shame.

"Where are you wrong?" Lu Shan said in a deep voice.

"We failed to understand the true ideological connotation of the headquarters' refined military and simplified administration. If there is any problem, we would like to solve it privately, and we would not report it afterwards. We deliberately deceived it and violated military discipline!"

"To solve the problem of resettlement of these women, they may not have to be incorporated into the female barracks!" Lu Shan said, "Have you ever thought of spending some money to invest in factories, textiles, garments, and quilts. These are all suitable for female workers. This will not only provide our troops nearby, but also generate income?"

"This, Mr. Lu, we don't know how to run a factory or operate it!" Yang Paifeng said. He did think about it at the beginning, but no one understood this, let alone running a factory is not just about paying money.

"If you reported earlier, the headquarters would not have found a way to send someone to guide you in this matter. This has caused serious violations of military discipline now. You are really asking for trouble!" Qin Shiyu shook his head and said.

"Lao Lu, I think we can open some factories in Tongliao. First, to prosper the local economy, and second, we can also place our wounded soldiers. Third, we can also attract foreign investment. We cannot give up economic development here just because it is at the forefront?" Qin Shiyu said, "What do you think?"

"Well, this is feasible. When the railway from Tongliao to Chifeng is completed, we can break the Japanese people's material blockade on us. Although it is difficult to transfer materials, there is still great potential!" Lu Shan said.

"Okay, I'll go back and talk to Mayor Jiang and make a preliminary plan!" Qin Shiyu nodded.

"I also agree that you don't have to pay for your own money when running a factory. You can build a military and civilian together, so that you can become bigger and stronger in the shortest time!" Lu Shan reminded him.

"I understand, I'll go find Mayor Jiang now!" Qin Shiyu immediately stood up and said.

"Mr. Lu, is the supplementary camp going to be disbanded?" Yang Paifeng asked anxiously.

"After training for so long, if I let you disband with one sentence, you will not be willing to do so!" Lu Shan said, "What's more, you have invested a lot of manpower and material resources. If you disband, wouldn't your previous investment be thrown into the water?"

"Mr. Lu, you said you would not disband the supplementary camp!" Yang Paifeng said in surprise.

"Although I don't plan to disband the supplementary battalion, I still have to punish you for violating military discipline!" Lu Shan said, "At the same time, I also found that we do not have a systematic plan for the construction of female soldiers, so I agree that the supplementary battalion will continue to exist. However, it is not the supplementary battalion of your female soldiers in the East Anti-Japanese War, but the reserve battalion of the entire female soldiers in the East Anti-Japanese War. In other words, in the future, the reserve battalion will be trained first, and then allocated various troops, and the tasks of the training reserve battalion will be handed over to your female soldiers!"

"Is this true?"

"It's true!"

"Very good!"

"Paifeng, stand!" Zhang Zhongji quickly reminded Yang Paifeng not to lose his composure in front of President Lu anymore.

At the same time, Zhang Zhongji also understood that the female barracks were responsible for training, but this reserve battalion was transferred from the female barracks to the Dongkong headquarters. In other words, the female barracks' power over the reserve battalion has greatly reduced, and all the female soldiers' distribution rights have been taken back!

"Yang Paifeng, for the mistakes you made, after our research, we decided to remove you from the position of acting battalion commander of the female barracks, revoke your position of deputy battalion commander, and also appoint you as acting battalion commander of your reserve battalion!" Lu Shan said.

"Mr. Lu, this..."

"The treatment and administrative level are reduced by one level!" Lu Shan continued.

It turns out that Yang Paifeng's administrative level was the deputy regiment level and the treatment was the main regiment level. Now that the administrative level has been reduced to the main battalion level, the treatment will be the deputy regiment level!

Also, in terms of subordinates, Yang Paifeng has no relationship with the female barracks. She is the battalion commander of the reserve battalion, and is no longer the deputy battalion commander of the female barracks!

Zhang Zhongji knew the relationship here very well, but Yang Paifeng was still immersed in the joy of not revoking the supplementary camp, and did not realize that he was no longer the person from the female barracks!

"Mr. Lu, what about me?" Zhang Zhongji asked.

"Zhang Zhongji, you have a bad supervision and shelter. Given that you and Yang Paifeng are boyfriend and girlfriend, you will be more guilty!" Lu Shan said, "The punishment for you is to remove your position as deputy commander-in-chief of Reliao, and retain your position as deputy commander of the 36th Division. After the exercise, go to Chifeng and exchange Tie Meng back!"

"Yes, thank you, General Lu!" Zhang Zhongji was a little excited. Although he removed the deputy commander-in-chief and left Tongliao, he was still extremely happy.

Because, this seems to be a punishment, it is actually to let him take over the 36th Division as a prelude.

Tie Meng could not stay too long as the commander of the 36th Division. Lu Shan asked him to come to Rehe as his deputy to take over him.
Chapter completed!
