"Okay, I will resolutely carry out my orders." Zhao Lan nodded and said, "But before turning around, can you let the brothers have a full meal first?"
Tao Liu and Zhong Guangren looked at each other, and their faces fell instantly.
Normally, Zhao Lan¡¯s request is really not excessive, he just wants a full meal.
"Brothers put their heads in their belts and fight to kill the Japanese. Shouldn't they get a good meal?"
However, the problem is that they really can¡¯t get any food. Although it is already July, the first season of early rice this year has not yet been collected.
Even if they were collected, their Tenth Army would not be able to get many kilograms of military rations.
The rations allocated to the 62nd Division were even less, less than 500,000 kilograms!
A mere 500,000 jins, divided evenly among the more than 9,000 officers and soldiers of the division, each of them only has 70 jins of food!
¡° Moreover, this is still rice, not rice. After the rice is ground into rice, there is still at least 40% loss. Although the remaining chaff, that is, the chaff, can barely be eaten, it is still chaff after all.
That¡¯s it, it can¡¯t be divided according to head.
Because the funds allocated by the theater commander's department are seriously insufficient, not only is it difficult to pay the officers and soldiers of the division on time, but there is also a serious shortage of funds for the purchase of military supplies.
You can save some money on other military supplies, but you really can¡¯t save on shoes and clothing.
For example, shoes, even straw sandals, require money to buy. Now it is difficult to guarantee even a pair of straw sandals for each person. How to ensure the combat effectiveness of the army in this case?
Therefore, we can only take part of the military rations from the mouths of the officers and soldiers, sell them for money, and then use them to buy shoes and clothing.
So now, their 62nd Division¡¯s military supplies department really has no food, really no food.
Seeing that Tao Liu and Zhong Guangren were silent, Zhao Lan said with a grimace: "Master, Assistant Master, you can only eat two thin meals a day. If you stay in the barracks and don't come out, you can barely do it, but now you can't." We have to march, and we have to rush back to Ciwu Town before dark. My brothers¡¯ bodies really can¡¯t bear it, they really can¡¯t bear it!¡±
Zhong Guangren exchanged glances with Tao Liao and said, "Master, how about borrowing some food from the fellows nearby?"
Tao Liu said angrily: "The officers have borrowed it a long time ago, but they didn't get it at all. The people have hidden their rations a long time ago. Unless they rob them with troops, they can't borrow the food at all."
After Zhong Guangren heard this, his face showed embarrassment.
Since they settled in Zhejiang Province in the winter of the 26th year of the Republic of China, they have written countless IOUs to the people of Zhejiang Province, but none of them have ever been cashed, so the people now hate them.
¡°For example, this time, when their 62nd Division went all the way south to Zhuji, there was no smoke coming from the villages they passed along the way. They were afraid that they would see the smoke and borrow food.
Not only that, the people even hid the food to guard against them like thieves.
Not to mention, some officers of the army really dared to rob and even kill people. For example, in Henan, Tang Enbo's troops often did this. Therefore, the people hated Tang Enbo's troops even more than the little devils. During the Henan-Hunan-Guangxi War in 1944, the people of Henan actually helped the Japanese to fight against the Chinese army!
Of course, Tang Enbo¡¯s troops not only robbed food, but also robbed old people of their longevity.
What were you going to do if you robbed it? Of course, it's for selling money and doing business. These woods are worth a lot of money.
Tang Enbo even proudly wrote in his diary that this year (1944) is expected to make a profit of 200 million yuan. These 200 million yuan were obtained by plundering the people's wealth and support. How can the people not hate him?
Therefore, Tang Enbo became one of the four major hazards of flood, drought and locust soup.
But after all, Tao Liu and Zhong Guangren are not as cold-blooded as Tang Enbo.
Therefore, they cannot do such a thing as directly sending troops to seize food.
Just when Tao Liu and Zhong Guangren were relatively speechless, there was a sudden noise in front of them.
Immediately afterwards, the officers and soldiers of the Independent Regiment who had been parked on the road sat on the ground one after another.
Zhong Guangren and Tao Liu hurried forward, only to find that the officers and soldiers had already known the news that they were about to return to Ciwu via the same route, so they were immediately upset.
It¡¯s a waste of time running back and forth, and I don¡¯t even get enough to eat.
Who the hell can stand this? I can't stand it!
"Damn it, I'm not leaving, I'm not leaving!"
"That's right, if you don't leave, I'll be shot if you dare."
"I put my head in my waistband and fight the Japanese, but why don't I want to have a full meal?"
"EmperorThe emperor is not short of hungry soldiers. Is Principal Chang not even as good as the Manchu Emperor? "
¡°I don¡¯t believe that the General Headquarters allocates so much funding every year, and the people of Zhejiang Province turn in so much grain every year. It¡¯s not our national army¡¯s turn to have enough meals!¡±
The news quickly spread to the entire group.
After a while, all the officers and soldiers in the regiment stopped working.
Not only the officers and soldiers of the independent regiment, but also the cooks and grooms at the division headquarters have given up their jobs.
Looking at the officers and soldiers who filled the place, Zhong Guangren and Liao Liu also had dull eyes, and they were at a loss.
Zhao Lan begged: "Master, and deputy master, please allocate some food so that the brothers can have a full meal."
Tao Liu glanced at his own and Zhong Guangren's mounts, and a look of determination suddenly flashed across his eyes, and he said: "Captain Zhao, kill me and Deputy Commander Zhong's mounts, and then let the brothers dig some wild vegetables. , cook a few big pots first, and let the brothers have a full meal no matter what!"
"Ah, killing a horse?" Zhao Lan was dumbfounded.
To the army, horses are very valuable.
At this moment, a communications staff officer hurried over.
"Master!" The communications staff officer said as he ran to Tao Liu, "The enemy's general staff in front of Yinjiang has an urgent message."
"Don't listen!" Tao Liu was furious and said angrily, "I'm so desperate now, I don't have time to listen to the command of that blind man named Zhong Jiba. If he has the ability, he can give me tens of thousands of kilograms of food first!"
The communications staff officer chuckled lightly and said, "Master, what I'm talking about is the supplies."
"What? Supplies?" Tao Liu's expression suddenly changed, and he snatched the telegram away with his hands.
After hurriedly reading the telegram, Tao Liu's eyebrows immediately showed a hint of joy.
Zhong Guangren then asked: "Master seems to be very happy, what did I say?"
"Good thing, good thing." Tao Liu handed the telegram to Zhong Guangren and said, "Chief of Staff Zhong has prepared 500,000 kilograms of cornmeal for our 62nd Division. The convoy transporting grain has already set off from Yinjiang. The first batch Fifty thousand kilograms can be delivered tomorrow!"
From Ciwu Town to Yinjiang, it¡¯s only over 200 miles and it can be reached quickly by bicycle.
"That's great! This is really timely!" Zhong Guangren also beamed with joy and said, "Chief of Staff Zhong has really helped us a lot."
Because they were in a good mood, the two of them called Zhong Yi Chief of Staff.
After a pause, Zhong Guangren said again: "Chief of Staff Zhong also said that this is only the first batch of supplies. In the future, we will send at least 10,000 sets of autumn clothes and at least 10,000 pairs of rubber-soled shoes to our 62nd Division!" (Recorder Please visit our website: www.hlnovel.com
