"Self-sufficiency plus a rotation system not only solves the problem of combat effectiveness of the troops, fights the Japanese, but also solves the food problems of the troops, making the troops self-sufficiency... Wang Ping, I said you must have a way. The artillery did not disappoint me. No wonder Commander Nie and Commander Chen both regarded you as a treasure, otherwise I would definitely find a way to keep you in our Suide Garrison District!" Commander Wang praised without hesitation.

Senior Wang Ping replied: "You are too overestimating me... I just said a general idea. How to do it needs to be discussed by the military region and developed a very feasible method!"

"This is no problem!" Commander Wang, who solved two problems at once, was in a very good mood and answered immediately.

Then he pointed to his subordinate behind him who had already begun to discuss the plan and said, "Look at the Chief of Staff, he has begun to formulate the plan. He knows the situation in the military region best. As long as he says it's OK, it will be OK!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the Chief of Staff walked over with an excited look on his face.

"Commander, the method that Captain Wang said just now is feasible!"

"We just calculated that according to the method that Captain Wang had just made us, before the spring plow next year, we can reclaim at least 20,000 mu of fertile land, or even 30,000 mu of fertile land!"

"Although the land here is barren, as long as we take good care of the land, it is still okay to collect 100 kilograms of grain per acre of land!"

"By the autumn harvest next year, 30,000 mu of fertile land, if the year is good, at least 350 or even 4 million kilograms of grain can be harvested!"

"Even if the weather is severe, it will be fine to harvest 200 to 2.5 million kilograms of grain. It can fully meet the annual consumption of all combat troops in the entire military region, and there is even more, which can supply part of Yan'an!"

Commander Wang's smile became stronger and he said with satisfaction: "Wang Ping, you have helped our military region with one word. Although you are not from our military region, I still want to ask for merit. Moreover, no matter what the result of asking for merit, our military region and military sub-district owe you a favor, and it is a favor!"

Wang Ping did not continue to worry about this issue, hesitated for a moment and said, "Commander Wang, I still have some ideas!"

"The people value grain to support themselves, and the military region grows food self-sufficiently. However, the land we open does not necessarily have to grow all the millet and corn that we usually eat for rice. We can also use more drought-resistant and better yields. Although people can't stand these mixed grains, they have a high yield. We can also use potatoes to feed pigs and chickens, and arrange disabled soldiers on the battlefield to build pig farms, chicken farms, and even sheep farms to provide the troops with eggs and various meat products. Only with meat can the soldiers' physique get better and stronger, and they won't suffer losses when dealing with the Japanese!"

"Remember it, write it down, write it down, what Captain Wang said just now, and study it carefully then!" Commander Wang ordered with his eyes lit up.

"I heard that the Jin-Cha-Hebei base and Taihang base have built chicken farms, pig farms, and sheep farms. The front-line combat troops can eat a meal of meat and an egg every two or three days on average. If I am not wrong, these seem to be the first to be created by you, Wang Ping. Now the main owner is here to teach us the experience of showing the base economy, and we also need to build these factories..."

Perhaps in order to thank Wang Ping for his help, when he left the Suide Garrison Command in the evening, Commander Wang mobilized a regiment of troops to send them to the Yellow River.

What Wang Ping did not expect was that as soon as he left, Commander Wang followed him to Yan'an for his help and support to the security area and asked Wang Ping for credit.

I don’t know that the telegram caused a huge sensation in the commander’s headquarters after it arrived in Yan’an.

When he arrived at the ferry, Wang Ping was very glad that the small ferry that left Yan'an in person when he went to Shanxi had now been replaced with two large ferry boats, and he could easily send two cars full of supplies to the other side of the Yellow River at a time. Despite this, when all the cars crossed the river, it was already four o'clock in the morning.

"Continue to rush to Yan'an before dawn!" Looking at his subordinates who were already showing a tired look behind him, Wang Ping decisively ordered.

Wang Ping's level is not high, and it can be said that he is the lowest among all military and political cadres who come to Yan'an to study.

However, his arrival caused a sensation in Yan'an.

Other cadres came to Yan'an to study, even if they were a brigade commander and commander of the military sub-district, they only brought a few guards.

Wang Ping, the commander of the New First Regiment, was a regiment-level cadre, but he brought a total of forty-five cars, a guard company, and a direct team, with a total force of more than 250 people.

The vast convoy was like a long dragon running on the dirt road, rolling up a lot of dust, and it was impossible not to attract attention.

The convoy did not enter the city, but directly bypassed Yan'an City and drove towards the headquarters of the commander's guard force!

"Hello, Captain Wang, I am the commander of the Third Regiment of the Left-Backed Corps. I am ordered to receive supplies here..." As soon as the convoy stopped, a cadre with a Mauser pistol on his waist walked over and introduced himself.

Then he pointed to the middle-aged man who was also wearing military uniforms but not equipped with pistols and introduced: "This is Deputy Minister Zhang of the Economic Department of the Commander's Department, and this is Deputy Minister Zhou of the Logistics Department of the Commander's Department. They are ordered to receive the supplies and funds you gave to Yan'an!"

"Deputy Minister Zhang and Deputy Minister Zhou, hello, I am the commander of the New First Regiment and the commander of the First Military Sub-district of the Taiyue Military Region. I was ordered to come to Yan'an to study and escort a batch of materials and funds to Yan'an... This is a list of materials and funds. Please check it out!"

Yan'an is very poor, not even as good as the military sub-district below.

In addition to the pitifully small income of the Yan'an local government, the materials and finances handed over by the troops below became the largest income of the Ministry of Economics and Logistics.

So, as soon as they saw the list handed over by Wang Ping, their eyes became hot.

Although we had already known the specific amount of this batch of materials and funds before we left, the two of us were still very excited when it turned into reality.

But not long after, the two people frowned.

"No... Captain Wang, except for the amount of funds you reported to the headquarters, the number of other materials is very different, more than twice as much... No, the amount of these materials is too large, I cannot take over without authorization, I must report to my superiors!"

Wang Ping knew that the commander's discipline was very strong. In order not to increase the pressure on the combat troops, he was not allowed to use more guns and bullets from the combat troops. However, he did not expect that all the supplies were sent to Yan'an, and they were still so strict in their discipline.

He hesitated for a moment and replied: "Okay, then hurry up... When the convoy bypassed Yan'an City, it must have attracted the attention of many people. I am worried that the Japanese will send planes to bomb. So many supplies have finally been sent to Yan'an. You must not be bombed by the Japanese at the last moment!"

"I'll ask my superiors now~ As for safety, I'll ask the soldiers to help you cover!" Deputy Minister Zhou of the Logistics Department answered immediately.

After waiting for less than one, more than a dozen people hurried over.

Vice Minister Zhou, who had just met, was walking beside him, and soon, Wang Ping showed a shocked expression on his face.

Among the dozen people, he actually saw Minister Li and Commander-in-Chief of the Ministry of Economic Affairs who had seen many times in photos in later generations.

He quickly greeted him, saluted, and reported loudly: "Hello... Wang Ping, commander of the first division of Taiyue Military Region and commander of the new first regiment, was ordered to report..."

"Son, why are you here?"

"Of course I'm coming. No matter where you, Wang Ping, will come back to us. There are surprises in Suide Garrison District, and there are surprises in Yan'an. I'm definitely coming here!" The commander-in-chief said happily. Looking at Wang Ping's gaze, it was like the elders looking at the younger generation, very satisfied.
