Chapter 586 I won’t care if someone dies in front of me and doesn’t obey me
The Ninth War Zone has hundreds of thousands of people, most of whom are central troops.
He needed to provide these supplementary equipment, and at the same time leave some for the Gui army and the Sichuan army. He couldn't just let them work without giving them weapons and equipment. In this kind of thing, he was not like the man in the mountain city who gave them nothing.
"Hundreds of thousands of troops in the war zone need supplies. I can give you some preferential treatment, but it can't be too much, otherwise I would be too biased."
Commander Bai explained it patiently, and Zhou Weiguo and Chao Xiang Xiuling naturally understood.
In fact, the equipment of the independent regiment is considered to be the best even when compared with all the troops in the mountain city. After all, no other regiment can be equipped with more than a dozen tanks.
That is to say, the independent group's scorpion shit is unique.
"Sir, please give me some more explosives, grenades and mines. Also, give me a few more field artillery. If you have more, I wonder if you can provide us with some meat. After all, after this battle, it is estimated that many people will not come back alive."
When fighting against top-notch troops, he could not just run away when he couldn't win as he had done in the past, but had to defend to the death. He knew how many people of the independent regiment could survive this battle.
So, while they are still alive and can eat well, give them better food.
"Okay, I'll ask the Quartermaster Department to prepare it for you. Also, I'll prepare enough liquor for you."
Asaka Hiderei opened her mouth to say something like this, which sounded like her last meal before execution, but in the end, she didn't say it. After all, it was unlucky.
The independent regiment had six infantry battalions, plus more than 5,000 auxiliary troops. After joining forces with a battalion of Gui troops mobilized by the headquarters, they set out for Yu County in a mighty force.
It was afternoon when they arrived, and Yu County Magistrate Li Xian personally went to the city gate to greet them.
Seeing Zhou Weiguo getting off the car, he quickly led a group of people over and said with a smile, "With General Zhou in charge, the people of Yu County have hope."
Zhou Weiguo glanced at the forty-something Li Xian in front of him wearing a long gown. "There, there, whether we can stop the Japanese army is not just the responsibility of our soldiers. I think as long as our soldiers and civilians work together, the Japanese army will definitely not be able to get through."
"General Zhou is right." Li Xian agreed and pointed to the city gate; "General, I have prepared a banquet in advance to welcome you."
Now?
Zhou Weiguo had not planned to go, but thinking that this might be the only quiet time before the battle and he would be very busy afterwards, he nodded and led the people from the regiment headquarters inside. As for the matters of the command center, Du Xiaoyue and Shen Xin would arrange them.
Like other counties, 90% of the houses in Yu County are wooden. Most of them are two-story, and some are three-story or four-story, but these houses are rare.
As for brick, tile and cement houses, they were even fewer. Zhou Weiguo hadn't seen many of them along the way.
The county office is still made of wood, not to mention other places, although there are a few ancestral halls with walls made of bricks and tiles.
"County Magistrate Li, how is the evacuation of the people in the city going?" Zhou Weiguo stopped and asked after taking a look at the layers of tiles on the wooden house.
Li Xian nodded; "Most people evacuated when they heard that the Japanese army was coming, but there were still some people who were unwilling to evacuate, mainly some businessmen and the elderly."
"Publicize it again." Zhou Weiguo thought for a moment and turned to Tian Jing beside him and said, "Organize a propaganda team to publicize it and ask them to evacuate as soon as possible. This place will surely be a sea of blood and fire. "
Tian Jing nodded and agreed. However, Xiao Ya beside her frowned.
Chao Xiang Xiuling added that when she saw this look, she came up to Xiao Ya and asked, "Sister, what's the problem?"
"The Japanese army is only 50 kilometers away from here. Those who should have evacuated have probably already left. Those who are left are probably a bunch of old stubborn people."
Zhou Weiguo heard Xiao Ya's explanation and laughed. "Letting them leave is for their survival. Since they want to die, we won't stop them. However, I will definitely dispatch a medical soldier to rescue them when the time comes."
joke.
It's obvious that you have nothing to worry about. You can just evacuate quietly to the back and come back to rebuild your home after the war is over. But you insist on guarding these dead things here.
Sorry, my medicines and gauze, any one of them, are very precious. They should be used in the hands of soldiers fighting on the front line, not in the hands of these old stubborn people.
Li Xian was looking embarrassed.
He understood that if these people did not evacuate, the army would not care even if they were injured in the explosion.
"County Magistrate Li, do you think I'm cruel?" Zhou Weiguo asked with a smile after noticing the embarrassment of County Magistrate Li and several officials around him.
Li Xian swallowed his saliva. How could he say this?
"It's cruel, but my medicine and gauze are to be used on the soldiers fighting on the front line, not on these stubborn old men and women who are guarding their small piece of land and their own property without food or drink."
At this point, he turned his head and looked at Tian Jing; "Tell them to leave the county within one day, otherwise if the battle breaks out, I will not send troops to escort them if they want to leave."
Tian Jing nodded.
None of the officers present refuted Zhou Weiguo's words. After all, sometimes, when a battle breaks out, the biggest enemy is not the Japanese army, but the common people.
Are you going to save him or not?
If you save him, the soldier might die there. If you don't save him, he might very well die.
Therefore, it is for their own good to let them evacuate in advance.
"Okay, I'll arrange it later."
After finishing the explanation, Zhou Weiguo followed Li Xian into a restaurant. It was called a restaurant, but it was just a dining room.
The food was simple, just five dishes and one soup. Although not luxurious, it was very exquisite. As for the drinks, it was just the locally brewed sweet potato wine.
After three rounds of drinking, Zhou Weiguo put down his glass and said to Li Xian, "County Magistrate Li, after dinner, you should also evacuate. This place is no longer suitable for you to stay here."
Li Xian smiled calmly, "General Zhou, I am not a coward. Since I am the county magistrate here, how can a county magistrate run away in fear of the enemy?"
At this point, he said loudly, "Since the war with the Japanese army, many county governors and officials have been paranoid. Before the Japanese came, they took their families and abandoned the people and subordinates to flee. I, Li, cannot do such a thing. My personality and the family precepts of my Li family do not allow me to do so."
After he finished speaking, he raised his wine glass and said to Zhou Weiguo, "I, Li, am no longer the county magistrate. All of us present here are no longer officials from now on. We are all soldiers under General Zhou. We swear to live and die together in Yu County."
