One day after the brigade commander left.
Tian Tuo Village held the highest military administrative meeting.
Attending the meeting were the new regiment commander Li Yunlong, the new regiment political commissar Zhao Gang, the new regiment's first battalion commander Zhang Dabiao, the new regiment's second battalion commander Shen Quan, and the new regiment's third battalion commander Wang Baolai.
Apart from them, there was also the captain of the Pingan County unit, Li Jiang, and the vice-captain, Hu Tian.
Hu Tian was currently the head of Tian Tuo Village, and he was in charge of finance, taxation, economy, and public security. This meeting was hosted by Hu Tian.
"Regiment Commander, Political Commissar, let me talk about the financial, economic, and public security situation of Tian Tuo Village!”
"Ever since my new regiment took over Tian Tuo Village, not a single person has starved to death in Tian Tuo Village. Even so, the economy of Tian Tuo Village is still very tight!”
"Less than 10% of the families can eat their fill. Most of them are still eating tree bark and wild vegetable soup, as well as catching some field mice for food!”
"This is under the premise that Tian Tuo Village receives some business tax every month. Although the regiment headquarters has distributed a lot of the seized materials to the village, there are too many poor households. The materials may seem a lot, but for a large village like Tian Tuo Village with a population of nearly 100,000, it's really not much!”
Hu Tian's eyes sparkled as he said that he hadn't done his job well. At the same time, he asked Li Yunlong to resign.
Li Yun Long comforted Hu Tian, hoping that Hu Tian would continue to take over the position of the township head, but Hu Tian insisted on not accepting it.
"Political Commissar Zhao, we are all boorish people. You are the only cultured person here.”
Li Yunlong said to Zhao Gang.
To be honest, Zhao Gang was more suitable for this position.
If Zhao Gang took this position, he might be able to do better than Hu Tian, and Li Yun Long would be able to place an informant outside.
Zhao Gang was here to be the political commissar of the new regiment. How could he accept Li Yunlong's arrangement? He immediately insisted on not accepting it.
However, Tian Tuo Village was very poor. Even though the new group had eaten the white flour rice today, it was not for nothing. These veterans opened the scars on their bodies, making Zhao Gang speechless.
The new regiment's warriors had a lot of fighting strength, passion for training, and intensity. It would be unreasonable if they couldn't eat this little bit of white rice.
Moreover, the supplies of the new regiment were shared with Tian Tuo Village. All the adult males would come to the village regularly for training, and each of them would be given a Hanyang or Sanba Gai.
These people were all very poor. They were very tired after going back and forth and training. They could still eat some hot food at home, but now they came to town to eat two cornbread at most.
It could be said that even though the New Regiment One had obtained a lot of loot, it was pitifully little for such a large family.
This made Zhao Gang very moved. The New Regiment One wasn't very stingy. They indeed couldn't take out any extra resources to support their allies.
At the meeting, Captain Ping An and Li Yunlong reported the recent battle situation and the situation of the spoils.
With Li Yunlong's weapons, the Pingan County Brigade and the 16 district squads continued to launch guerrilla warfare and sparrow warfare against the Japanese army. Now, the vast rural areas of Pingan County were almost under the control of the new regiment.
At the meeting, Li Yunlong praised the Pingan County unit and the ten district teams, but criticized the six district teams.
Because these six teams had lost a lot of weapons and warriors.
The Pingan County unit had also seized a 92 heavy machine gun. When the captain Li Jiang mentioned the heavy machine gun, his eyes were filled with longing. Anyone could tell what Li Jiang meant.
However, the six squad leaders wanted Li Yun Long to give them Li Jiang's heavy machine gun because their headquarters had lost. They were severely criticized by Li Yun Long.
"If you want weapons, go and seize them yourself!”
"The regimental headquarters has decided that this 92nd Heavy Machine Gun seized by the Pingan County Brigade will belong to the Pingan County Brigade. At the same time, in recognition of the Pingan County Brigade's fighting spirit, a grenade launcher will be rewarded to the Pingan County Brigade as a form of encouragement!”
Li Yun Long knew that Zhao Gang was beside him, but he didn't mind having a grenade launcher.
Zhao Gang also felt something. As a knowledgeable young man who understood reason, he seemed to realize that the brigade commander was doing something wrong.
The New Regiment One was a supernumerary regiment. It did not have any military pay or ammunition supplies from the central government. It was completely self-made. It was really inappropriate to ask for weapons from the New Regiment instead of the regular troops.
In the morning, Zhao Gang saw so many machine gun launchers in the New Regiment. He was so surprised that he couldn't close his mouth. He even muttered a few words to Li Yunlong. Now, Zhao Gang didn't dare to say that.
"It's better to teach people to fish than to teach them to fish!”
"The six of you are the military officers of the district team. If you only rely on the regiment headquarters to give you weapons, when will you be able to make some achievements and defeat the devils?”
Li Yun Long said to the team leaders of the six districts. His eyes were very strict and his tone was filled with a roar.
Hearing Li Yunlong's words, the team leaders lowered their heads in shame.
"Comrade Zhao Gang, do you think I did the right thing?”
"Anyway, I, Old Li, believe that we can't hurt the hearts of the hard-working people and the hearts of the hard-working soldiers. If we take the fruits of their victory for no reason, it will greatly affect their spirit of advancement!”
When Li Yun Long said the first sentence, he saw that Zhao Gang had stopped talking. He knew that he had not attended the meeting in vain.
Li Yun Long's next words struck Zhao Gang's heart even harder.
From this moment on, Zhao Gang's heart was rapidly moving towards Li Yunlong, especially when Li Yunlong said," It's better to teach a man to fish than to teach a man to fish ". How wonderful was that? Was this still the illiterate Li Yunlong?
"Guild Leader, you did well!"
Zhao Gang looked at Li Yunlong and started to clap his hands. He even said "you" in his tone!
The political commissar took the lead in clapping, and the rest followed suit. Li Yunlong enjoyed the applause. This was a conquest of the human heart, much better than using his fists to conquer the Japanese.
At this moment, Li Yunlong checked Zhao Gang's knowledge panel and realized that Zhao Gang only had a high school degree. Didn't he have a university degree?
"Honorable Commander, the academic qualifications given by the technology tree are based on your knowledge in the future. The university standards in China during World War II are based on the evaluation of the technology tree.”
Victoria appeared in Li Yunlong's mind and said to him.
No wonder. Li Yunlong felt that his PhD aura was suppressing Zhao Gang's high school aura. It was like a tiger facing a wolf. His thoughts were affecting Zhao Gang.
This way, it would be easier to bring Zhao Gang to his side. He didn't expect his PhD status to have such a subtle effect.
In the later generations, some people said that it was terrible to be uncultured. It seemed that when this uncultured person faced a highly cultured person, their thinking and speech were indeed much worse.
No wonder this meeting had affected Zhao Gang so quickly. Li Yunlong was very happy when he thought of this. It seemed that he had to chat more with Old Zhao in the future.
After the meeting.
Li Yun Long asked Zhao Gang to be the head of Tian Tuo Village, and he was also in charge of the life and education of the new regiment. Zhao Gang agreed.
