Of course, Licheng County is not just the Wang family.

As early as half a month ago, when the general imagined the battle at Shentouling, he had already used the intelligence personnel in the city to figure out the forces of all sizes and large in Licheng.

As a small county town deep in the mountains, Licheng has a strong local power. The county magistrate arranged by Old Man Yan is basically a mascot. The four local families with the most say in Licheng are.

The Wang family has been operating in Licheng for a hundred years and is the leader of the four major families. In addition, the Zhao, Han and Gao clans can only compete with them, which maintains a balance.

This is actually very Chinese, and everyone emphasizes getting a balance point that everyone can accept through constant compromise.

The Japanese army came, and the Wang family, which had already been deeply rooted in Licheng, chose to kneel directly. The Zhao and Gao clans were still a little stronger, and we could hide. We brought cash and patted our butts with the core members of the family and ran towards Shaanxi Province. We left some marginal figures in the family to stay in Licheng and wait for the change.

The other one who stayed in Licheng was the Han family. Although they chose to surrender to the Japanese army, they were not as shameless as the Wang family. They not only gave the Japanese army a lot of wealth, but also gave all their ancestral homes.

However, the Japanese are also a very strange nation. They don’t take the Wang family seriously like the Wang family. However, the Han family did not kneel down and acted completely as dogs, and the Japanese army stationed in Licheng did not do anything to them.

After all, the Han family occupied most of the two major industries of Licheng transportation and cloth. The North China Front Army, which wanted to obtain blood transfusions from occupying the county town, naturally would not easily destroy such commercial institutions unless they had a tendency to rebel.

But there is no doubt that the Japanese had much stricter surveillance on them, so the intelligence personnel of the 683 Brigade did not instigate the Han family to transport weapons from them to the city. Instead, they played with the darkness under the light and directly took advantage of the Wang family caravan, which the Japanese were not very careful about.

It can only be said that after ten years of fighting wits and courage with the "Principal", all the bigwigs of the Eighty Army have been upgraded. The Japanese in Jin Province faced the "Tu Eight" who were close to the maximum level! Their "Tu Eight" are just weapons, but their brainstorming is absolutely great.

The leader of the Licheng County businessman who was found by intelligence personnel for Tang Dao was Han Shichong, the current patriarch of the Han family!

A fat man with a round figure and a smile on his face!

The standard image of a businessman, even when facing Tang Dao, was not very guilty, and had some knowledge of the fat man who walked through the murderous guard company and saluted the army colonel with a cold face.

Tang Dao, who already had this information, didn't say much nonsense and told the businessman in front of him: "Although our regiment conquered Licheng, the Japanese army is powerful and will not stay in Licheng for a long time. It is still mainly based on mountainous garages. The massive amount of supplies seized in the Japanese army's baggage warehouse this time will also be moved to the original garage.

However, because the Four Army Regiment will also fight with the Japanese army, it requires enough labor to transport the materials, but it is not a waste of labor. All those involved in the transport of materials will be compensated.

Moreover, all ordinary people who are willing to follow the Sihang Group to retreat to the mountains will receive food subsidies, and housing will also be supplied with materials. Everyone will not lose their ability to survive just by going to the mountains. The Sihang Group will provide sufficient jobs and pay for adult men and women.

Merchants like them who have worked for the Japanese invaders and now sincerely regret it, as long as they can use the corresponding strength to complete this large transport, they will receive cash remuneration, because in wartime, all remuneration will be paid five times the weekdays.

And, if these businesses are willing, the Sixingtuan will open a business license around the Sixingtuan station according to the evaluation!”

A merchant is a businessman. Han Shichong immediately realized the huge profits. Tang Dao paid five times the reward. As long as he hired the people to transport them with four times the reward, he could earn a difference of one twice the commission. In other words, if he was invited by the Sixing Group, he had five merchants in total. The more people he hired, the greater the profit he earned.

As for whether Tang Dao will fulfill his promise, Han Shichong was under no pressure. After the Japanese army entered the city, the Wang family, who had just kneeled, sent a large amount of wealth. The Han family alone sent 20 big yellow croakers under pressure. That was the foundation of the Han family's clan that had been stored for many years. I felt sorry for it.

The small county town of Licheng is not a large provincial town like the original city. Even if the Japanese get the money, they have no place to spend it. This time, the Sixing Group directly made a fortune for the Japanese. I think this batch of goods fell into the Sixing Group again.

Otherwise, the young colonel named Tang would not be so confident.

Thinking deeply, Han Shichong's mind was even more happy.

Who do these businessmen want to do business with? Isn’t it just following people!

The total population of Licheng County is only 6,000 or 7,000 people. If they all follow the four-way team and run into the mountains, who will they trade with? Should they deal with the Japanese or the air?

Businessmen have to follow people!

If the common people follow the Four Army Group to retreat to the mountainous areas and want to survive there, food is the first element of survival. There is no problem with the Four Army Group, which seized a large amount of Japanese food, distributes food as a reward.

But human life is not just about having food, clothing, food, housing and transportation. If the Four-Rural Group provides jobs and pays remuneration, it must be in the form of cash. With cash, can you do business?

Although it is a mountainous area, as long as there is enough population, it may be another Licheng! Who said that the county town cannot be changed?

When the Japanese dog - Lao Wang and the others come back, they will be stunned when facing an empty city of Li!

"Please rest assured, Chief Tang, my Han family will definitely call on the people of the whole city to cooperate with the army to deliver these supplies to your army's base!" After Han Shichong, who was flexible in thinking it out, he patted his chest to make a guarantee. "And, Chief Tang must see the performance of my Han family and other honest businessmen in Licheng, and give me the opportunity to do business near the army's base."

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Okay!" Tang Dao was very satisfied with the attitude of the person in front of him.

He not only caters to the superiors, fully expresses his confidence in the army, but also takes the opportunity to express his views. The most commendable thing is his decisiveness.

Not everyone can trust a small infantry regiment, and for the first time, they have to take thousands of civilians into the mountains, even if they have just wiped out a thousand Japanese troops.

Life and war are two different things!

"Sir, why do you have to trust these unscrupulous merchants and pay them such a high transportation fee? If they secretly defect to the Japanese and spread the secrets in our resident, the Japanese will definitely attack us." Cai Yongguan, who has rarely questioned Tang Dao's orders since joining the Four-Road Group, frowned and asked questions.

Even if Guo Shouzhi was desperately winking at him, Tang's regiment was the boss, and the boss made the decision at most, he would discuss it with several deputy officers of the regiment headquarters. Then, will it be your turn, a young company commander, to question him?

Unexpectedly, Tang Dao was not only not angry, but instead smiled slightly to explain to Cai Yongguan: "It's very simple. Although we already have mastered the entire county town, they who once mastered the economic lifeline of this city know better than us. If we want to move away from this hill of supplies and retreat, those who are willing to avoid the Japanese military fronts, without them, our efficiency would be extremely low.

It’s better to leave professional things to professionals.”

Seeing Cai Yongguan still scratching his head, Tang Dao patiently explained: "Although they bowed their heads to the Japanese, they just made the most normal choice for ordinary people in terms of life and death. As long as they do not harm the Chinese for tigers, they are still Chinese, and we cannot completely beat them to death. Otherwise, there are so many ordinary people living in Japan who still live, when we counterattack one day, can we still regard them as traitors?

As for whether it was a fencer, I watched us and secretly defected to the Japanese. At that time, the group would set up a security department to monitor these businesses and some key groups, and strive to reduce these risks.

And they know the secret of the station you are worried about. There is no need for this now. Don’t you know what our station is like now! Apart from stone and wooden houses, what else can you do? And even if you have the factories we want in the future, they will be strictly separated from the residential areas. They are military important places, and it is not possible to connect to you. This geographical location planning is done by the top students of the geography department under Mr. Xiao He.”

"But, even without them, we can let the people of the whole city follow us. Wouldn't they be afraid of the Japanese?" Cai Yongguan asked again, who was somewhat confused.

"Hehe, you can ask your battalion commander this question, he should give you a good answer." Tang Dao smiled.

Cai Yongguan, this guy, can be ranked among the top three in the infantry company commanders of the entire regiment, but he is somewhat stupid and far less than Wei Donglai's brains. He probably will end up being a regiment commander in the future.

But Tang Dao still likes this straightforward guy who is a bandit. Perhaps because of his straightforward nature, he never has to worry about the bullets flying from behind as his comrade!

The human heart is the most complicated thing in the world! It is purer, it is what many people want, and Tang Dao is no exception.

Seeing Cai Yongguan looking at him in confusion, Guo Shouzhi, the old man in the world, sighed: "Hey, Yongguan, do you know what it means to be hard to leave your hometown!"

Yes, if it weren't for the hardship of the hometown, how could there be more than 7,000 people still stay in the city when the Japanese army arrived? Even if the Japanese army, who knew that the evil name was outside, might plunder and massacre the city.

Of course, in addition to the difficulty of leaving homeland, there is also a mentality that most people will have that "lucky deviation" mentality. The Japanese cannot massacre all the Chinese in the occupied areas! What if they become more and more sexual?

This is also the reason why there are many displaced refugees when the war comes, but there are more common people who still choose to stay in their hometowns.

They handed their fate to the hands of a group of beasts!

But who can say what they are?

They are just the most ordinary people in this cruel world. They just want to live! Not everyone has received a good education, not everyone has thought about the meaning of life, and giving parents, wife and children a full meal is their driving force.

As for why Tang Dao used a lot of food to induce the people of Licheng to retreat to the mountains with them, even Cai Yongguan, who had a straightforward personality, knew it.

It’s not that the Sixing Group needs a huge number of people to make reserves for the future industrial zones, but that it is impossible not to leave.

Thousands of bloody corpses of Japanese invaders were placed in the city. The Japanese army carefully prepared the supplies for half a month to make wedding clothes for the Four Corps. Anyone who saw this situation would be furious! Not to mention the Japanese.

The Japanese army will inevitably take revenge.

The Sixing Group moved things and ran away. Who is the target of revenge? It can only be the people of Licheng.

Perhaps, an unbearable massacre will occur after this great victory, which is something the Chinese army will never want to see.

Therefore, Tang Dao would rather spend a lot of money and grain to move all these people to the mountainous areas, which can not only allow them to escape the disaster, but also allow the population base around the resident to have a much larger labor force than before, which can be considered a killing of two birds with one stone.

This should be the confidence that Tang Dao had after seeing more than 200,000 kilograms of grain, not to mention that there are nearly 2,000 kilograms of gold. If it is based on the current exchange rate, it will be more than one million. With this money, there will be no problem in supporting ten thousand people in one or two years, not to mention that the Four-Ship Group will never be able to spend so long.

Han Shichong only understood this truth after leaving.

Compared to faster transporting supplies, the young leader wanted to save the lives of the whole city.

To be honest, even this "landlord Laocai" who has been used to taking a bath in the vortex of money is admired by Tang Dao.

This person is just a multifaceted creature. No matter how stupid the capitalist is, he may be infected by some indescribable nobleness at any time.

Fatty Han, who tried his best to devote himself, showed the maximum efficiency in his life. Before Tang Dao led his main force to leave the city, he led his newly established Licheng "Salvation Business Federation" to organize people to relocate supplies.

However, it was not the Japanese army's supplies that had just been seized by the Four Army Regiment, but the supplies of the residents in the city.

This person, who had fooled at least two thousand people, decided to move his home deep in the Taihang Mountains, with the softness of the house, pots, pans, and even the beams and windows of the house.

All businesses in Licheng who have cars and horses participated in helping residents move for free.

And as these two thousand people began to act, people had a herd mentality, and only more and more people followed them.

It can be imagined that the last city of Li will only become an empty city.

These thousands of residents will place their personal belongings in designated areas in the mountains, and then participate in the large-scale relocation of the Four Corps. In addition to the supplies company and people from the garrison, a spectacular wonder will be formed in the next few days: more than 10,000 people are on more than 30 kilometers of mountain roads, like hardworking little ants, moving food back and forth!

So what are the Japanese doing?

Of course, he was being beaten.

Leaving two infantry companies to maintain order and necessary security in the city, Tang Dao led the main force to leave Licheng County. They would meet with Lei Xiong's first battalion ten miles away, and head towards the end of Shentouling.

The 683rd Brigade left the supplementary regiment that had just finished the bloody battle to clean the battlefield. The two main infantry regiments under their command had already gone straight to the battlefield. There, a main infantry regiment that the 921st Division had not taken out had entered their battlefield.

Yes, the two chief officers of the 921st Division were outrageous in their caution in the battle at Shentouling!

The 683rd Brigade dispatched three infantry regiments and four regiments to participate in this battle. They felt that they were not safe enough, so they even quietly mobilized another main regiment, the 769th Regiment, lurking around the battlefield.

After receiving the order from the brigade commander Cheng, the regiment closest to the battlefield chosen by the brigade commander Cheng had entered the battlefield in advance to build fortifications.

It means that when the four regiments arrive, the entire Chinese army will be able to enter the battle, and there will be as many as 5 regiments!
