……
Wang Ye took Wei Dayong, Wei Xilai and Duan Peng to the outside of Heyuan County.
This is already the third county that Wang Ye has scouted in the past half month.
To Wang Ye's disappointment, Fu'an County and Ping'an County only had commerce, but no industry at all, not even the most basic food processing industry.
Wang Ye said: "Big Badaled Wolf, did you often come to Heyuan County before?"
For the codename Big Flower Wolf, Duan Peng was not happy in every possible way, and he didn't know why Wang Ye gave him such an inexplicable codename, so he just pretended not to hear it.
"Grass, what did the Northwest Wolf ask you?" Wei Dayong turned around and kicked Duan Peng.
Duan Peng became angry, and said in a deep voice: "Big Bad Wolf, try kicking me again?"
"Just kick, I'm afraid of you." Except for Wang Ye and Lu Changsheng, Wei Dayong was really not afraid of anyone, and immediately kicked Duan Peng fiercely.
Duan Peng fought back.
The two immediately huddled together.
Wang Ye didn't stop him either, and sat next to Wei Xilai to watch the play.
Because he knew that the two were about the same skill, and it would be difficult to tell the winner within a hundred moves, so he just fought.
Sure enough, after fighting for a long time, there was no winner, and the two were exhausted to death. In addition, Wei Dayong's nose was bruised, and Duan Peng's face was swollen.
Seeing the two stop, Wang Ye smiled and said, "Why don't you stop fighting, keep fighting?"
"Stop beating, I'm too tired." Wei Dayong scratched his head, a little embarrassed.
Duan Peng didn't calm down, and said with a dark face: "Big Bad Wolf, listen to me, I'm also a serious veteran now, don't try to bully me again."
Wei Dayong turned his head away and pretended not to hear.
Wang Ye said again: "Big Flowered Wolf, did you often come to Heyuan County before?"
"It can't be considered as a frequent visit." Duan Peng said unhappily, "I only come to the county a few times a year."
"Then have you seen a factory in the county?" Wang Ye said, "Any factory is fine, flour mill, quilt factory, towel factory or winery. Have you seen it?"
"I haven't seen it." Duan Peng shook his head vigorously.
Wei Xilai said, "Captain, it seems we can only go to Anhua."
Wei Dayong said: "If you want to tell me, you can go directly to Taiyuan. It is estimated that there will be no factories in Northwest Shanxi, but Taiyuan, as the capital of Shanxi Province, must have many factories."
While talking, a bell suddenly rang on the road ahead.
"There is a situation!" Wang Ye snorted, and the four immediately turned around and hid in the dense corn valley.
After a while, a convoy came slowly along the highway. This convoy consisted of more than 20 carts, and each cart was covered with canvas. I don't know what was inside.
There is a full company of puppet troops responsible for escorting.
Four people against a company of the puppet army, Wang Ye did not dare to act rashly.
But good luck, a puppet soldier suddenly felt anxious and went into Baogu to relieve himself, and was caught by Wang Ye and the others.
……
Just as Pan Ren took off his pants, he suddenly felt something was wrong.
The moment he turned around just now, he caught a glimpse of someone?
After being stunned for three seconds, Pan Ren quickly lifted his pants, then turned around, and then saw in horror that two men were squatting less than two meters away, staring at him with smiles.
"Pervert, you can watch shit." Pan Ren pretended to be nonchalant and prepared to leave.
However, just as he turned around, he almost collided with two other figures, and then the muzzles of the two black holes were already on his forehead.
"Are you going in a hurry?"
One of the men said: "Can you chatter?"
"Baye, please spare me." Pan Ren fell to his knees with a plop.
The man smiled and asked: "Name, unit number, position?"
"Pan Ren, the Second Battalion, Third Platoon, and Fourth Squad, First Regiment, Fourth Mixed Brigade of the Imperial Association, is the deputy squad leader." Pan Ren shook off his details like pouring beans from a bamboo tube.
Only fools fight against the Eighth Route Army.
I have heard for a long time that the Eighth Route Army does not kill people indiscriminately.
"It's quite cooperative." The man asked again, "What's on the car?"
"It's all wheat." Pan Ren said hastily, "A total of [-] catties."
Chapter 339
"Forty thousand catties of wheat?"
Wang Ye asked, "Where did it come from?"
Pan Ren hurriedly said, "They're recruited from Donghe Township."
Wang Ye was surprised: "This year's grain requisition has started? Isn't it going to be in July?"
"Advancement." Pan Ren said flatteringly, "Received the notice from above that this year's grain collection has been advanced to June, and all grain collection work must be completed before the end of the month."
before the end of the month?In a few days it will be the end of the month.
Doesn't it mean that the food collection work is almost over.
At that moment, Wang Ye said again: "So, Heyuan County has stockpiled a lot of food?"
"That's right, there's no place to put it." Pan Ren said flatteringly, "It's 500 million catties at least."
Wang Ye calculated that Heyuan County is located in the center of the Tibet Basin, and the Fen River flows through the basin. It has been the largest grain-producing area in Shanxi since ancient times.
It is still possible to expropriate 500 million catties of summer grain.
This is undoubtedly extremely valuable information. Although their independent regiment no longer lacks food, who would think there is too much food?right?
"Why collect food in advance?"
Wang Ye said calmly, "What's the reason?"
Pan Ren said: "Ba Ye, I really don't know about this."
"Huh?" Wei Dayong poked hard with the barrel of the pistol.
Pan Ren was in pain, but he didn't dare to scream, so he could only beg for mercy repeatedly.
"Baye, I really don't know if I'm young, I'm just a little deputy squad leader."
While asking questions, a roar came from the road ahead: "Old Pan? Old Pan?"
Immediately, another loud voice sounded like a broken gong: "You won't be smoked to death, right?"
Wei Dayong and Duan Peng's expressions changed slightly. It was because Pan Ren hadn't gone out for a long time, and the other puppet soldiers became suspicious.
Wang Ye winked at Pan Ren, and Pan Ren understood, and quickly responded with a loud voice: "Du Lao San, what are you crying about, howling, shit is not clean."
There was a sudden burst of laughter on the road.
Seeing that Pan Ren was fine, he stopped waiting for him.
The group of puppet soldiers escorted the grain carts and went straight away.
Wang Ye asked again: "What's unusual in Heyuan County recently?"
"Abnormal?" Pan Ren thought about it carefully, shook his head and said, "Everything seems to be normal."
"Really?" Wang Ye asked sideways, "According to the information we have, the little devil is going to vigorously develop Heyuan County. Think about it carefully."
"Develop Heyuan County?"
"I've never heard of this."
Pan Ren shook his head, and said again: "However, Zheng Papi opened two new factories in Heyuan County."
Wang Ye was overjoyed when he heard the words. It was really hard to find anywhere, and it took no effort. He was really worried about where to find factories. As a result, there were two factories in Heyuan.
At that moment, Wang Ye asked calmly, "What kind of factory are these two?"
Pan Ren knew everything and said: "A winery and a tobacco factory have just been opened not long ago. If Ba Ye wants to kill fat pigs, I advise you to come back at the end of the year."
Wang Ye said: "Why do you ask us to go again at the end of the year?"
Pan Rendao: "Because Zheng Papi has a very good relationship with Heyuan County Gendarmerie Captain Hirata Ichiro, most of his products are for the imperial army, oh no, most of them are for devils."
"And devils usually settle accounts with Zheng Papi at the end of the year."
"So at the end of the year, you will definitely be able to make a fortune."
"But right now, I don't think there's much money to be made."
At the end, Pan Ren showed Wang Ye a flattering smile.
"You're not bad." Wang Ye said, "We will definitely give you a reward when we really make money by the end of the year."
Wang Ye didn't think that Pan Ren would be so stupid as to report the news of his forced confession to the devil. It would not do him any good, but the necessary deception was still necessary.
Pan Ren must be convinced that the Eighth Route Army will not go to Heyuan until the end of the year.
"Don't dare." Pan Ren shook his hands repeatedly, and said with a bitter face, "Actually, we have no choice but to be dogs to the devils. It's just to make a living. Who in the world would be a dog wholeheartedly? right?"
Wang Ye laughed and signaled Wei Dayong and Duan Peng to put away the shell gun.
"You can go." Wang Ye muttered, "But remember the rules."
"Remember, remember." Pan Ren said hastily, "Keep your guns high when you encounter Eight Routes."
"Very good." Wang Ye smiled, "Hurry up and return to the team, don't make your people suspicious."
"Baye, then I'm leaving, hehe, hehehe." Pan Ren walked backwards for tens of meters, until Wang Ye and the others were completely covered by the dense cornfields, then turned around and ran wildly.
After running for three miles in one breath, he finally caught up with the puppet army.
"Old Pan." The company commander who led the team scolded, "What a shit for taking so long."
"Company commander, I can't come out." Pan Ren never mentioned the matter of being questioned by the Eighth Route Army.
"That must be a fire." The company commander laughed, "Find a kiln sister to defeat the fire at night."
Several puppet army platoon leaders and squad leaders next to them laughed lewdly, and began to discuss with great interest. This one said that the waist of the water snake is really thin, and the other said that the skin of the bone spirit is white and tender. Then an old puppet soldier said , you youngsters should really taste the taste of Saimopan, it can squeeze you dry with one ass.
Pan Ren was slightly absent-minded. It seemed that the puppet army could not do it anymore.
We must find a way to leave before the end of the year.
Otherwise, my life will not be guaranteed.
……
Wang Ye and the others took their mounts and flew back to Zhaojiayu.
Xing Zhiguo and Zhao Gang were not here, and the two of them were very busy recently. Xing Zhiguo was busy investigating the county brigade and all the district teams because the independent group was about to expand.
Now the independent regiment is neither short of food nor guns, but only short of people.
So expansion is a matter of course.
Zhao Gang is busy preparing for battle.
Although Wang Ye vowed that the devil would give priority to hitting Chu Yunfei.
But Zhao Gang didn't dare to take it lightly, and decided to make preparations first.
There are many things to prepare for war, and the most important one is to store food.
Not only should the independent regiment's own food be well hidden, but the common people should also be persuaded to hide the food.
Zhao Gang's main job was to mobilize and persuade the common people to hand over the food in their homes to the independent regiment for safekeeping, leaving only a few days' rations at home, so that once the devils came, they could be transferred into the tunnel immediately.
But this job is not easy to do, and Zhao Gang needs to come forward to guarantee it in many cases.
Li Yunlong has nothing to do, he just likes to sit with Lao Gou and calculate the fortune of the independent group.
When Wang Ye returned to Zhaojiayu, Li Yunlong followed Lao Gou to do accounts in the underground warehouse.
After checking all the houses, Li Yunlong found out the problem, and scolded Old Gou with a black face: "The number is wrong, Old Gou, did your idiot intercept it privately again?"
"Head, why are you wronging people?"
