Predator Reborn

Chapter 73 Preparation (2)

Two days later, all troops were inspected. The most problematic issue was the recruitment of new recruits. Due to the years of war and the perennial banditry in western Hunan, the people here are fierce, and many young and middle-aged people have run away from home to fight in other places.

Make a living.

Although the Red Army occupied western Hunan and many political cadres attacked the local tycoons and divided the land, which won the hearts of the people, due to the lack of young and middle-aged people, the recruitment offices of the three divisions recruited no more than 100 soldiers in two days. It can be seen that

Seeing such results, Liu Hua said nothing.

In the evening, the three of them came to the headquarters to meet.

"Commander of the Army, this is not possible. Many of the young and middle-aged people here can no longer survive. Some have fled to other places to make a living, and some are working as bandits locally. There are basically no qualified soldiers to recruit in the entire countryside. What should I do?

Huh?" First, the political commissar responsible for recruiting soldiers began to complain.

"Yes, Army Commander, I am here too. Due to the rampant local bandits, although we have the ocean, the farmers here are really poor and have no extra food to sell to us, and the powerful landlords have no extra supplies. These two

The thing that hits the richest people the most is the ocean. I interrogated him, and guess what they said?" Director Li Qing also complained to Liu Hua.

"What did they say?" Liu Hua asked with a smile.

"They said that after hoarding too much food at home, if bandits came, it would be impossible to hide it. It would be much easier to hide it in oceans and gold. I was so angry at the time." Li Qing replied with a wry smile.

"Well, it seems that the root cause of the two problems is that there are too many bandits. Let's think of a solution!" The three of them fell into deep thought.

"By the way, there's a way!" Liu Hua slammed the table.

The two were startled and stared at Liu Hua.

"Don't look at me like this, I don't have flowers on my face." Liu Hua waved his hand and said.

"Say it quickly, you are going to kill us!" Li Qing couldn't help but ask as he looked at the relaxed Liu Hua.

The political commissar also showed expectant eyes.

"Political Commissar, Director Li, Gan Cai, the key to your problem is the bandit problem here. The young and middle-aged people are with the bandits, and the food is also with the bandits. Let's heat up all those bandits..., haven't all the problems been solved?

?" As he spoke, Liu Hua made a downward slashing motion with his right hand.

This is when the two of them broke out into smiles instantly.

"But, legion commander, we don't know where those people are, and the current combat effectiveness of the army is very poor. How can we eliminate those bandits?" The political commissar immediately asked again.

"Well, that's a question. Political Commissar, Director Li, please see if this works."

"I sent out all the reconnaissance battalions of the legion headquarters, and asked them to take the remaining radio stations of the legion as a company, and let them find the lair of the bandits based on the information from the masses. The combat effectiveness of those scouts was

They are the strongest in the entire legion, so I believe they will be able to complete their mission and find the lair of those bandits." Liu Hua said, looking at the two silent people.

"Well, I agree, then which troops should we use to eliminate those bandits? You know, although the weapons of those bandits are not very good, their combat effectiveness is indeed very powerful." The political commissar immediately asked.

"Political Commissar, Director Li, do you think this will work? We use one regiment at a time. Now each of our divisions has three regiments. We leave one regiment as the base area's security and protection mission, and one regiment goes to fight.

Bandits, the remaining regiment will be trained. This rotation will not only eliminate the bandits, but also strengthen the actual combat capabilities of the troops."

Hearing this, the two of them smiled at the same time.

Soon, the three of them made a decision. Starting tomorrow, each regiment will begin rotation training. Each division will start with the first regiment and follow the reconnaissance battalion of the regiment headquarters to suppress bandits. At the same time, in order not to suffer too many casualties,

It is required that every bandit suppression operation must be accompanied by the division's artillery battery.

In this way, this memory achieved very good results.

Starting from the next day, the three divisions followed the orders of the Corps Headquarters and each sent a regiment of troops to follow the reconnaissance company towards the mountains around the county seat.

…

A month has passed. With the help of artillery, the bandit dens with dozens to a hundred people were wiped out. After receiving accurate information from the reconnaissance company, the main groups participating in the suppression of bandits surrounded them.

On those hills, with the help of mortars, the bandits were quickly blown up and scattered everywhere. The task left to the main group was to capture prisoners...

"Commander of the Army, good news! I didn't expect that those bandits were so rich. No wonder they all want to be bandits." First of all, Director Li Qing, who was responsible for raising food and grass, ran into the headquarters with a list and smiled.

.

Immediately afterwards, the political commissar also walked in with a smile. Looking at the smile on the political commissar's face, Liu Hua knew that he must have achieved great results.
