The father of the sword is Kong Jie

Chapter 556

When the group headed to Niukou Village where the headquarters of the Independent Regiment was located, they would inevitably pass by the camps of some companies on the outskirts and some villages on the outskirts.

Representatives of overseas Chinese such as Sun Nianguo, as well as experts and professors such as Zhao Guo, Qian Xuezhong, and Chen Dong, soon started their journey to visit the independent group.

Everyone had just arrived at the outlying villages of the Independence Regiment's base area, Beigou Village and Longwo Village. They had just entered the village entrance, and they were all surprised to see the situation inside the village.

The horizons of these experts and representatives are very broad, not to mention they have been living in a bustling city like Tianjin.

As for the living conditions of some scattered villages behind enemy lines occupied by the Japanese army, these experts, professors and representatives mostly learned about it from newspapers.

In their impression, these Chinese villages, which were not even looked down upon by the Japanese army, represented absolute poverty and hardship.

Most of them are thatched huts, huts, and earthen houses.

The villagers are often hungry, naked, unkempt, sallow and emaciated.

But the situation at this moment is that before everyone entered the village, they heard the sound of chickens crowing and dogs barking.

When you enter the village, what you can see is not the thatched huts or dilapidated earthen houses that may collapse at any time in your imagination.

On the contrary, it is a small courtyard of a family, with a courtyard wall made of stones outside the courtyard, and several earthen houses falling side by side in the courtyard.

The earth-stone structure house was well repaired, and there were no cracks or the like, and it didn't look like it would collapse at any time. On the contrary, it seemed very solid.

Looking into the depths of the village, there are some even built brick houses.

Pieces of red bricks and gray tiles, surrounded by the surrounding mud houses, look a bit grand.

Looking in through the courtyard wall at Qiren's chest, most of the villagers planted trees in the courtyard. In a corner of the courtyard, there were chicken coops and duck cages. It was daytime, and the chickens and ducks were digging the soil back and forth in the yard to find food.

On the beams under the eaves, a lot of corn and peppers were hung in each family, and on some vacant stone slabs, there were also some grains, seeds, dried sweet potatoes and the like.

Some villagers can be seen in the yard, most of them are elderly people, there are also some children who have not grown up, or women with children.

No matter whether it is a woman, an old man or a child, they are not idle. There are some wooden tables in the yard, and everyone seems to be working. Although they are busy, they all have smiles on their faces.

Before Kong Jie and his party entered the village, they were discovered by some villagers and militia fighters in charge of security in the village.

Fortunately, the team escorting Kong Jie and his party back were all wearing the military uniform of the independent regiment.

The squad leader of the escort knew all the militiamen in the village.

Only then did Kong Jie and his party enter the village smoothly.

"Squad Leader Zhao, why are you here? Who are these comrades?"

Most of the militiamen in the outlying villages of the Independence Regiment base did not know Kong Jie.

One reason is that the militiamen in the village are replaced quickly, and many of them are new young people, so I have never seen Kong Jie.

The other is that the cadres consider Kong Jie's safety, and Kong Jie rarely does this kind of problem in public.

This is not because he is afraid of death, but as the backbone of the independent regiment's base, Kong Jie needs to be responsible for the entire base so as to bear the burden on himself.

Squad leader Zhao pulled the militia soldier aside and whispered something in his ear.

Excitement immediately appeared on the little soldier's face, and squad leader Zhao was a little stunned. The little soldier had already run to Kong Jie, tried his best to stand up straight, and then saluted a military salute: "Hello, commander!"

Squad Leader Zhao followed him with a speechless expression, "Liu Wazi, you are short-hearted, aren't you? Didn't I tell you that the team leader is traveling in secret this time, so do you want to keep your identity secret?"

The little soldier scratched his head in embarrassment: "Squad leader, this is the first time I see the head of the regiment, I am so happy!"

"You boy, this is too excited." Squad leader Zhao scolded.

Kong Jie smiled and said, "It's okay, we're already safe once we enter the village, with the folks around, what could be safer than this?"

As he spoke, Kong Jie looked at the little soldier, "Little comrade, what's your name?"

The little soldier quickly puffed up his chest and replied in a dignified manner: "Reporting leader, my name is Chen Liuwa, because I am my father's sixth child, hehe, leader, I am the youngest in our village Militia!"

Kong Jie nodded and asked with a smile, "Liu baby, how old are you this year?"

"I'm sixteen miles away!"

"Have you read the book?"

"Captain, I don't like to study, I like to shoot guns and go to the battlefield to kill devils."

Kong Jie asked again: "Why do you call me the head of the regiment?"

Liu Wa said with a firm expression, "I will definitely be a soldier of the Independent Regiment in the future, so I see your regiment leader, it must be true."

Ha ha ha ha--

Kong Jiele said: "Stinky boy, you are not much taller than a rifle, but you have to strengthen your nutrition and grow up first. In addition, do you know that you want to join the independent group to fight devils, not only If you want to be able to shoot a gun, you must also be literate and able to read?"

"Ah???" Liuwa was dumbfounded, "Leader, I'm most afraid of reading."

Kong Jie said with a straight face: "It's not good to be afraid of reading. Let me tell you, if you want to fight devils and protect your home and country, you must first read the book well. You are still young. You should hurry up and go to school to learn some culture." of."

"Hasn't the school in your village been built yet?"

Liu Wa said: "Yes, there are still two schools, but I just don't want to go."

Kong Jie said earnestly: "It's okay not to study. I used to dislike reading just like you. What happened afterwards? Every time I was laughed at by other comrades-in-arms, saying that we are mud-legged, what if we become the regiment leader? It's a mud-legged boy, and when that mud-legged boy is the head of the regiment, he will be laughed at and looked down upon."

"So we followed suit later, until now, I still learn cultural knowledge every day!"

"I didn't have the conditions like you at that time! There is a school, and you don't have to pay for it. You can study for free, but you are not happy, kid?"

"Head, if I go to study, do you want me to be your soldier?" Liu Wa asked in a daze.

Kong Jie was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and said, "Okay, if you finish your studies and become famous, I will definitely want you."

"Yes, please rest assured, Commander, I promise to complete the task! Commander, let's make an agreement. After I finish reading the book, you can let me be your soldier."

Kong Jie laughed loudly and said, "Don't worry, the head of the regiment can't say nothing? Let's spit a nail."

While smiling, Kong Jie groped in his pocket, then took out a pen that was always in his pocket, handed it to Liu Wa, and said, "Liu Baby, this pen of mine is only for those who love to read. Comrade, if you make up your mind and work hard to finish the book, you can take this pen."

As soon as the exquisite Parker pen appeared, not to mention Liuwa, Squad Leader Zhao next to him, and even Ye Min and his party behind him were all jealous.

Liuwa hesitated for a moment, then gritted her teeth, took the pen and said, "Yes, leader, I must have read the book well!"

Kong Jie patted Liu Wa on the shoulder encouragingly, and then led everyone away.

Squad Leader Zhao gave Liu Baby a thumbs up before leaving, "Liu Baby, you are really good, the leader gave you all the pens! You don't know, no one in the entire independent group was given a pen by the leader Woolen cloth!"

"Ahem, how about I exchange this pen with you for something good?"

Liu Wa quickly hid the pen in her pocket and looked at Squad Leader Zhao vigilantly.

Squad leader Zhao smiled embarrassingly, "You boy, can I still miss you? Just kidding, just kidding, remember, hold the pen, you have to study hard!"

"Eh!"

……

Walking on the road, Zhao Guo, an academic professor who has always insisted on teaching and educating people, asked, "Master Kong, is there a school in this village?"

Kong Jie nodded and replied: "Many villages around our base area have begun to develop their children's academic education. According to the requirements, each village must set up at least one or two schools, and the age of the village must be guaranteed. The younger kids have books to read."

Professor Zhao Guo said with emotion: "Knowledge can change destiny. This statement cannot be false. Being able to fight against the Japanese invaders while focusing on basic education in the environment behind the enemy lines is a great achievement!"

"Captain Kong, may I ask if the villages around the Taihang Base have achieved this level of education?"

Ye Min on the side explained: "Professor, that's impossible for the time being. Over the years, the Japanese army has been launching large-scale raids on our base areas behind enemy lines. The soldiers and civilians in the base areas have problems even filling their stomachs. How can they have the spare time and money to go to school?" read?"

"This is the school education that we first tried to start around the base area after the development of our independent group."

Kong Jie took the opportunity to say: "The school education that we are taking the lead in trying around the base of our independent regiment is the beginning of the experiment.

According to the instructions of the headquarters, after the follow-up effect is highlighted, it will start in our major roots.

It even radiates all the villages around our base area. "

"Professor Zhao, you are an expert in the field of education. When it comes to teaching and educating people, we have no one with more experience than you."

"So, I actually have an unfeeling request."

Zhao Guodao: "Leader Kong, please speak!"

Kong Jie said sternly: "I would like to invite you to stay in the independent group and assist our independent group and fellow villagers to develop education!"

Seeing Zhao Guo's hesitation, Kong Jie quickly added: "Professor, don't worry, as long as you agree, I will explain it at the headquarters.

In addition, in the independent group, you are in charge of all aspects of education. As for funds and other needs, I will do my best to meet them. "

Professor Qian Xuezhong on the side smiled and said: "Old Zhao, Captain Kong has already said so, so don't hide it, and respond quickly!
This time we ventured here from the place under the jurisdiction of the Tianjin devils, isn't it just to show some light and heat in our base area!

Now the independent group is the best place for you to show your talents. "

After Professor Zhao Guo heard it, he also laughed, "Alright, since Captain Kong has said so, I can only fight this old bone!"

Kong Jie laughed and said, "Professor, you are growing old and strong. The educational development of our independent group and its surrounding areas is all up to you!"

After successfully handling Professor Zhao Guo, Kong Jie quietly pulled Ye Min aside while walking on the road, and confessed:
"What attracts these experts, professors and representatives is often the field they are best at.

After returning to the regiment, you should hurry to communicate with the political commissar and get ready.

Representatives like Sun Nianguo, if they want to find what they are good at, such as Sun Nianguo's proficiency in Japanese, they will hand over all the books on various aspects of the Japanese army seized by our regiment over the years, involving military, agriculture, politics, finance, etc. , let him translate into Chinese.

Don't look at the little devil bastard, the content involved in this devil's book is more advanced than our country.

If you can translate them all, it will definitely be of great use.

With these things, most likely Sun Nianguo can be kept in our base.

As for Professor Qian Xuezhong and Chen Dong, take them to visit the repair shop and see the various production factories developed in our group. "

"In a word, tell the political commissar that we must find ways to keep the hearts of these experts, professors, and representatives in our independent group.

As for whether the headquarters will poach people away in the future, that's another matter. It's up to God to make things happen, but it's up to people to plan things! "

"Yes!" Ye Min's eyes lit up when he heard it, and he was filled with admiration.
