Comrade, Your Ingredients Are Too Complicated

Chapter 97 Kong Jie’s Ambition

Since the independent regiment moved to Yangcun, Kong Jie began to arrange the work of the regiment as usual. During this period, there were two very important issues.

  The first issue is agricultural production. This is a commonplace matter, but the situation in Yangcun is quite special.

 Before the independent regiment came to garrison here, Yangcun had just been looted by a wave of puppet troops.

Had it not been for the food provided by the brigade and friendly forces, the people might not have been able to survive the next wave of wheat harvest.

 The second problem that needs to be solved is bandits. In times of war and chaos, bandits are always prevalent.

Banditry is one of the social problems faced by the current base areas. These inhumane beasts have seriously affected the consolidation of the anti-Japanese base areas and the people's living and working in peace and contentment.

And for ordinary people, bandits are more terrifying things than little devils.

 Although both of them do unscrupulous things such as murder, arson, and rape, most of the time when they are robbing, they only want valuables or things of strategic significance.

Moreover, unless the little devils in Jin Province have some special political mission, they generally do not massacre cities easily.

These invaders are still dreaming of ruling this place in the future and expanding the influence of the **** East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere.

But the bandits are different. These people are always thieves, and sometimes they don't even let go of the pickles in ordinary people's kitchens.

 For ordinary people who live in the shadow of bandits, the female relatives of the family must wear black faces.

Their mountain strongholds are basically built in dangerous areas that are easy to defend and difficult to attack, which makes the bandits confident. These **** commit murder and arson without caring about whether they will be confiscated. They do evil based on their own mood.

 The Eighth Route Army has different attitudes towards different bandits.

 Because someone has said that we must unite all the forces that can be united so that a single spark can start a prairie fire.

When the troops were suppressing bandits, those die-hards who refused to repent and committed heinous crimes were usually brought back for public trial and then executed on the spot.

  Occasionally, you will encounter ordinary bandits or "civilian armed forces" who are forced to take refuge, but these are almost only one in a hundred, and the treatment of these people will be relatively loose.

If the other party is willing to go back to farm, the army will pay them travel expenses and even help them choose a place to settle down.

 If you are willing to join the People's Army, you are welcome to join.

 But ideological education must be carried out first, and only after meeting the standards can they be dispersed into various units.

After Kong Jie arrived in Yangcun, he immediately started investigating the banditry around him.

 Because there was only one mountain village within a hundred miles, he quickly obtained first-hand information.

 Looking at the complaints from ordinary people, Kong Jie had to admit that this was a group of heinous bandits.

This Heiyun Village has been established for more than 20 years, and they dare to attack anyone without scruples.

Whether it was little devils, preserved fruit troops, puppet troops, caravans or even the Eighth Route Army, they all robbed them, and they arrogantly claimed to be the king of the mountain in this area.

 But being able to survive for so long also proves that this group of bandits has some abilities.

Heiyun Village has repeatedly repelled the preserved fruit troops who came to suppress the bandits, but because they were not the main force, the group of bandits continued to grow stronger with war.

After reading these survey results, Kong Jie knew without even thinking that these people must be well-trained, and it is absolutely impossible for a group of rabble to achieve such a reputation.

If their independent regiment wants to attack by force, the gains will definitely outweigh the losses. Because the troops lack heavy weapons, just breaking down the door requires paying a huge price.

If you really rush forward, it will be like a stupid pig-like command, and the boss will be angry to death.

But the suppression of the bandits must be done. This group not only harmed the local people, but also had weapons and equipment that the independent group coveted.

Kong Jie locked himself in the command room of the regiment headquarters and thought about countermeasures for a whole afternoon, and finally found a way to break the situation.

　　Then he immediately contacted the brigade commander, and while reporting the bandit suppression operation, he also borrowed a person from the other party.

 This man is called Gao Jianwu, and he was once the small leader of a cyan organization in Shanghai. He was seriously injured during a fight with others and was later taken in by Mr. Wang.

This gangster was well aware of the national justice and applied to become our underground worker. Later, he moved to various places and finally came to the current base area.

 Because his aura of martial arts is too strong to be in the army, he has been in charge of underground work in Jin Province.

Comrades have mixed reviews of Gao Jianwu, but they have never questioned his ability to work. Generally speaking, he is a very reliable intelligence worker.

When Kong Jie wanted to destroy Heiyun Village, he immediately thought of Gao Jianwu. No matter how strong a fortress is, it cannot withstand disintegration from within.

 When the brigade commander learned about Kong Jie's idea, he thought for a moment and thought it was very feasible.

 He immediately contacted Gao Jianwu through special means, and the spy chief of Jin Province accepted this difficult task without hesitation.

After discussing with his capable generals, Gao Jianwu chose a small-scale village and successfully occupied the magpie's nest after some small tricks.

 Over the next few months, they were in trouble. While strengthening themselves, they also established the name of their copycat village.

In order to prevent any colleagues from doubting their identity, the independent regiment also specially sent soldiers to dress up as ordinary people and caravans.

After several pretentious robberies, Gao Jianwu successfully hid his identity from the local bandits.

Moreover, the supplies brought by the Independent Regiment allowed them to attract some gangsters who came here for their fame.

As an agent who has been in Jin Province for many years, Gao Jianwu got acquainted with people from all walks of life. These people only know that he comes from the cyan organization and spends money generously.

 After paying some costs, we successfully found a qualified guarantor to sponsor the newly established village.

Then Gao Jianwu took his men directly to Heiyun Village, and after going to court and worshiping incense, he successfully went undercover. At first, Xie Baoqing did not trust this newly joined gang.

As a dominant bandit, he has always been very cautious and has been testing Gao Jianwu from the first day he arrived.

No matter how stable the three leaders of Heiyun Village are, they can't defeat the once-all-powerful old fox. With the cooperation of the independent group, it only took Gao Jianwu a month to integrate into the group.

Unfortunately, one time when the second boss and the third boss went out to check out the location, they encountered a squadron of Japanese cavalry.

Even though the brothers in the village fought to the death, Ma Liu, the third leader, died under the saber of the Japanese.

Although Xie Baoqing was furious when he learned about this incident, he decided to choose a new third boss first and then choose the time to take revenge.

  Gao Jianwu has used various means to win people's hearts through getting along with the bandits during this period. In the end, the agent leader seized this opportunity and successfully took over.
