Heroes of the Resistance Reborn

Chapter 27: The Madness of the Minister of Logistics

Wujiang is very busy at the moment.

His first task was to collect. After the general commander led his troops to seize the passage by chance, he rushed to the passage with the 16th Red Army in the evening last night. That night, he and his comrades from the Logistics Department were in the secret service brigade. With the support of the Communist Youth League, they started their old business overnight: directly collecting the properties of various reactionary figures in the channel. As a result, in addition to the 250,000 yuan in the county government treasury, they collected 300,000 yuan in silver dollars from the county magistrate’s house. The county party secretary 200,000 yuan in silver dollars and 4 small yellow croakers were collected from the home of the county city defense chief. 250,000 yuan of silver dollars and 4 small yellow croakers were collected from the home of the county security chief. 300,000 yuan of silver dollars were collected from the home of the county security chief. 600,000 yuan of silver dollars were collected from the home of the county police chief. The home of the county tax director 600,000 yuan in silver dollars were confiscated. At that time, these cunning guys hid the ill-gotten wealth very well. However, it was Li Jiansheng who brought this to Wujiang. He had already become a master of these money-hiding things. Therefore, this dig The work in the cellar was not a problem at all. An unprecedented harvest was soon achieved. As for the food, cloth, gold and silver jewelry of each family, as well as the food of a group of reactionary landlords, they were also confiscated.

These nearly 3 million yuan of silver coins and millions of kilograms of grain made Wu Jiang almost crazy with joy.

The second thing in Wujiang was the crazy buying. On the night of December 9, after notifying the commander-in-chief Li Jiansheng of the seizure, Li Jiansheng immediately ordered the logistics system to immediately purchase a large amount of various strategic materials, including tung oil, foreign oil, salt, and medicines. , food, cigarettes, liquor and other supplies. In the early morning of the 10th, Tongdao Shunchanglong Cloth Store opened its doors. The owner’s surname is Zheng. He used to be a merchant. He has seen a lot of the world. The original business is still doing well. But I can’t help myself. I got sick and spent a lot of money. I stopped doing business. I only worked as a businessman. The business was much smaller than before. There were only two storefronts. But I still did my old business, cloth. Old Zheng Yueren A lot. Yesterday afternoon, he knew that there was a different kind of soldier in the passage. Having seen a lot of the world, he knew that the passage was going to change. However, after a serious illness, he had a clear understanding of the world and life. He had a clear understanding of the world and life. Unlike the other businessmen who were wise to protect themselves and refused to open the door, Comrade Lao Zheng opened the door as usual. He believed that it was a blessing, not a curse, but a curse that cannot be avoided. As a result, not long after the door was opened, a large number of people wearing strange military uniforms came in. First, Claiming to be a member of the Red Army. Second, he used cash to buy fabrics.

This stunned Comrade Lao Zheng. It was only after these Red Army soldiers spent more than 320 yuan in cash to buy all the fabrics in his store that Lao Zheng came to his senses. He sighed that these Red Army soldiers were really benevolent and righteous soldiers, and hurriedly Let the clerk do two things: one is to sell all the last 60 or so pieces of fabric remaining in the warehouse. The other is to notify the neighbors. With Lao Zhengtou's notice, all the stores in the corridor opened for business. It turned out that it was true as Lao Zheng said. The Red Army used cash to buy various supplies. As a result, the food stores, cloth stores, grocery stores, and dye stores in the entire Tongdao County made a lot of money. Tung oil, foreign oil, salt, medicine, and grain , cigarettes, liquor, and other items were all purchased by teams of Red Army soldiers who went door-to-door with cash. A few smart ones immediately used their own channels and sent guys overnight to spread the goods from several surrounding counties. I just came here hoping to earn some more silver dollars. As for the few restaurants in the county, they were all politely asked by the Red Army to process dry food. And they all paid in cash in advance, which made several bosses smile from ear to ear. As for the blacksmith shop He was also busy making engineer picks and shovels for the Red Army. He was the only one in the horse business in Tongtong County. All eight of his family’s horses were purchased and sold for nearly 300 yuan. The boss named Wang counted while counting. Qian stayed for a while and left the city in person at noon that day to transfer horses to surrounding counties. In the next six days, he sold more than 40 horses to Li Jiansheng's tribe. As a result, all the horses in several surrounding counties were sold to Li Jiansheng. Short selling. As for Boss Wang, I can make a lot of money this time. You know, the purchasing power of silver dollars in this era is very strong. One silver dollar can buy 7 pounds of pork in Shanghai. I bought it in a relatively remote place like the channel. There will be more.

In fact, it was the regiment-level cavalry company commander Shao Qianjin and the logistics director Wu Jiang who were personally appointed by Li Jiansheng to buy horses from Boss Wang. After knowing that there were horses in the passage, Comrade Shao Qianjin insisted on asking Comrade Wu Jiang to buy the horses. Wu Jiang Comrade Li Jiansheng really couldn't stand Comrade Shao Qianjin's efforts. He had no choice but to accept the defeat and agree to buy all the horses. He personally stepped in to purchase them. In fact, Li Jiansheng only handed over 60 horses to Comrade Shao Qianjin at the beginning. This time he bought more than 40 horses. Plus the 6 horses confiscated from the passage. Now his cavalry company has finally begun to take shape and is worthy of its name. There are 122 horses. It is just the size of a cavalry company. Of course, when Li Jiansheng knows that the cavalry company has already grown in size At that time, it was after he was demoted to the position of legion commander.

When he received the order from Li Zhi, Wu Jiang was at the county government. According to Li Jiansheng's arrangement the night before, he was cleaning the conference room of the county government. In private, he also cleaned several rooms for his most respected commander-in-chief. He planned to let the commander-in-chief stay. After receiving the order from Li Zhi, Wu Jiang didn't even think about it. He immediately asked other personnel in the logistics system to put down their work, and temporarily assigned a regiment to him from the secret service brigade. All members immediately went into battle. Burning Hot water, cooking, and preparing new military uniforms. Fortunately, these tasks started last night and have been in progress until this morning. Of course, the first thing is to satisfy the material brigade and guard regiment of the Third Red Front Army; now we will strengthen it. But it's not difficult.

Hot water and food can be solved by having your own troops. But military uniforms cannot be solved in one step. Wu Jiang is also smart. He used the "troops + masses" method that Li Jiansheng used in the base area. The method was to order military uniforms and quilts directly from the local people. As a result, on the same day, people who had made clothes and quilts lined up in long lines to hand over the clothes and quilts to the Red Army and receive wages, which became a scene in the passage. Wujiang’s original intention was to sell these clothes After a part was handed over to the Third Red Army, another part was stored in the logistics system for future emergencies. But now that there was an order from Li Jiansheng, all this batch of supplies was handed over to Commanders Chen Guang and Liu Yalou of the Second Red Division of the First Red Army. political commissar.

As a result, Wujiang became more and more in need. Those fellow villagers who had already handed over their clothes and quilts were busy going back to collect the fabrics and continue making them. The Red Army bought as many as they made. Because they paid in cash, people in and around the county town made military uniforms. The enthusiasm for military quilts is very high, especially among poor families. I have never seen such a good thing like pie in the sky. You know, a set of military uniforms is one yuan; the same is true for a quilt. On the evening of December 9 After Li Jiansheng proposed this price, Wu Jiang was still a little hesitant. Later, he saw that the commander-in-chief was determined and said nothing more. Little did he know. Li Jiansheng knew that the total number of the Central Red Army was less than 50,000. They only had one set of new uniforms and one new uniform per head. The quilts were only worth 100,000 in total. The silver dollars were only 100,000. It was nothing to this big army and big harvest.
