Bright Sword Military System

Chapter 243
"The superior said, we have three solutions!" The chief said: "The first is that the revolution cannot go on, then there will be no revolution, and everyone will dismiss and go home!"

Li Yunlong stood up abruptly: "What? Don't beat the devils anymore? How can it be done! Now we are doing revolution and can keep the devils out, and when we go out, we can grab them by the ears and beat them up. If we all disband Going home, why don't you follow the devil's bullying? This is not acceptable!"

The chief went on to say: "The second method is that you don't want to disband and don't do anything, just go on like this!"

"It's not going to work!" Zhang Wanhe said, "Now everyone is so hungry that their stomachs are growling. If this continues, people will starve to death within two months!"

Zhang Wanhe is the Minister of Logistics. He has the most say in this aspect. He said that if it takes two months, it will not last for three months.

The chief nodded and said: "Then there is only a third way, relying on our own two hands, self-reliance to develop production, and everyone to overcome difficulties together! Which way do you choose?"

The cadres responded in one go:

"Of course the third way!"

"That's right, you can only do it yourself!"

"You can't wait to starve to death!"

……

"The independent regiment's approach in this respect is worthy of praise!" The chief turned his attention to Li Yunlong, and said: "The base area is short of salt, so he knows that sending horses to Dingbian to collect salt will not only make a fortune for himself, but also make a fortune." Along the way, escorting the villagers who mined salt to ensure the safety of the people, this is something we should learn from!"

Speaking of this, the chief raised his head towards Li Yunlong and said, "Li Yunlong, tell me what you think? There is also experience in making a fortune, let comrades learn from it!"

Li Yunlong got excited when he heard it, he got up and waved his hands and said: "Chief, there is actually no trick. In the final analysis, it is necessary to see accurately, be courageous, and be quick. Otherwise, the day lily will be cold!"

The cadres booed for a while.

Ding Wei shouted: "Let me tell you, Lao Li, you're still good at fighting, but you'll be exempt from doing business! I'll bet you a load of salt, this must be Little Northeast's idea!"

"Hey..." Li Yunlong replied unconvinced: "Xiaodongbei is a soldier of our independent regiment, isn't his idea my idea? Don't be unconvinced, you have the ability, your new regiment is also the entire Xiaobei come out!"

Ding Wei said: "Look, isn't this the trick?"

The cadres laughed again.

Of course the chief and the chief of staff knew in their hearts that this was Xiao Dongbei's idea.

In fact, it was Xiaodongbei's idea that the headquarters planned and organized to collect salt in Dingbian, and even opened a mule and horse shop along the way.

The chief of staff kept saying that this matter was fortunately Xiaobeibei's thought ahead, because of preparations, over the past month or so, the continuous delivery of salt from Dingbian to the various places in the base area has ensured the salt demand of various ministries.

Otherwise, there will be a shortage of food and salt at the moment, and we must be caught off guard!
"Comrade Wang Xuexin!" The chief turned his attention to Wang Xuexin, and said, "You should say a few words. Your regiment leader is not reliable. If you learn from him, we may all have to drink the northwest wind!"

The cadres laughed again.

Wang Xuexin got up and replied: "Chief, I was thinking, should we consider doing business with the stubborn army and the Jinsui army?"

"I'm talking about Xiaodongbei!" Ding Weiqi said: "It's fair to say that before, when we were still cooperating with the stubborn army, it was reasonable to do business with them, but now that we're serious about it, can we still do business with them?"

Ding Wei's statement has been recognized by most people. Before that, he could barely be regarded as a cooperative state, but now he is besieging the New Fourth Army and blocking the Eighth Route Army. Can this business still be done?

Many people in the Eighth Route Army didn't even want to wear the blue sky and white sun badge, and took it off one by one.

Wang Xuexin asked: "Commander Ding, if we sell salt to fellow villagers in this way, isn't this food the left hand for the right?"

The cadres were stunned when they heard this.

What this is saying is that the base area has been blocked and turned into a closed area. Isn't your own internal business just a left hand for a right hand?
When the food is exhausted, as many people will starve to death as many people will starve to death, the difference is only who is starved to death.

The chief nodded and said: "Xiao Dongbei is right. This is not a simple issue of enlisting the enemy. If we don't do business with the enemy, coupled with the hail disaster, the food in the base area will not be able to increase by itself. The more we eat, the less we will eat." What's more, the enemy tried every means to block us with gun towers, barbed wire, and isolation ditches, and we block ourselves, isn't that fulfilling the enemy's wish!"

Hearing what the chief said, Li Yunlong breathed a sigh of relief: "I also mean the same thing. A load of salt can only be exchanged for one hundred catties of grain in the base area, but it can be exchanged for more than 1000 catties when it is transported to the enemy. Isn't it stupid not to trade it more than ten times?"

In the base area, food prices skyrocketed due to the shortage of food, but in the enemy-occupied areas, this problem did not exist, so food prices were still normal.

In fact, the price of the enemy is also rising. After all, too much legal currency has been printed and many counterfeit legal currency has flowed into the market. Of course, the price of goods must rise.

However, the price of goods has risen and the price of salt has also risen. How much food was exchanged in the past is still the same amount of food, with only a small fluctuation.

Li Yunlong had been staring at this big piece of fat for a long time, but because of the intensified hostility, he kept silent.

Hearing what the chief said now, he knew it could be done.

Zhang Wanhe also agreed:

"Now we only have a few groups to collect salt from Dingbian, and the salt can still be sold at a good price in the base area for the time being."

"Next, if the big guys rush to Dingbian to collect salt, if there is more salt, can you still sell it at a good price?"

"So we have to sell it to the enemy to exchange for food!"

"What does the enemy do, let's do it the other way around! If the enemy sets up a blockade, we have to break the blockade. How can there be any reason to help the enemy blockade together?"

In this way, the cadres understood and nodded in agreement.

Then this matter is still handed over to the Xinyi regiment and the independent regiment... Li Yunlong has connections and knows how to bribe the enemy to open the passage.

In addition, the chief also decided to look for breakthroughs from all directions, and strive to transport materials to the enemy in exchange for urgently needed food and other materials.

Even areas occupied by devils are considered.

The reason is the same, the devils blockade the base areas, and the base areas cannot actively cooperate with self-isolation, but should actively break the blockade.

The most valuable material that can be exported from the base area is salt, so salt has become the main "weapon" to break the blockade.

But Wang Xuexin feels that this may not be enough.

Because that's what the Eighth Route Army did in history.

As a result, the military strength was reduced by 10 people a year, and it was not until 43 that he recovered.

So now, even with Wang Xuexin's reminder and some preparations, it won't be much better, right?
