While in Anyang Town, Zhao Zhiguo organized troops to raise fish and sheep.

Wherever the troops fight, there are their breeding farms.

From sheep and fish at the beginning, to chickens, ducks and geese later...

Anyway, they will raise whatever grows quickly.

From Anyang Town to Pingcheng, they also developed the breeding farm from Anyang Town to Pingcheng.

"Your own breeding farm?"

There are really surprises everywhere in Zhao Zhiguo's army, and the deputy commander-in-chief did not expect that Zhao Zhiguo is not only capable of fighting, but he is also good at doing side jobs.

"Our regiment leader said that by engaging in breeding, we can not only give the injured and retired soldiers a job, but also supply meat to the troops. Kill two birds with one stone."

Troops fight more and more frequently.

More and more soldiers are retiring due to injuries, and many of them have nowhere to stay.

And these retired soldiers don't have too high requirements. They just need to give them a bite of food and don't let them go hungry.

But even with this request, as the number of wounded increased, Zhao Zhiguo found it difficult to satisfy them.

The army did not support idle people, so Zhao Zhiguo tried to find some side jobs, one was to improve the army's food, and the other was to find something to do for these retired soldiers.

"This is a good idea and can be promoted throughout the army! After all, the wounded are also soldiers who have made contributions. We should not forget them."

The deputy commander-in-chief quickly asked the staff around him to write down this matter, and after returning, he would have people implement it.

"Deputy Commander-in-Chief, feel free to eat this meat," Zhao Zhiguo said.

"Okay, I'll just treat it as improving the food. How about trying the meat raised by our own troops."

During this meal, Zhao Zhiguo and Matthew Wen both ate with some restraint. After all, sitting with the deputy commander-in-chief, it was impossible not to be nervous.

The deputy commander-in-chief also praised Zhao Zhiguo and the others.

Zhao Zhiguo and his army also have a lot of experience that can be put to use, which is very beneficial to the development of the army.

The deputy commander asked the staff to write them down one by one.

"If I knew you had such a good experience here, I would have come here in advance."

Those who are good should learn from it. This is the principle that the deputy commander-in-chief has always firmly adhered to.

After all, Zhao Zhiguo applied many advanced military training experiences of later generations to the army. These experiences were gained with blood and lives on the battlefield. After decades of accumulation, they were passed down from generation to generation.

After the meal, Pingcheng was already busy.

There are little Japanese prisoners of war everywhere helping to build houses and roads.

After what happened last time, these Japanese prisoners of war became more docile. They didn't even dare to be lazy. Even if they were injured, they pretended not to be injured and continued to work.

They were now afraid that Zhao Zhiguo would think they were of no use and would pull them to the street and shoot them.

"It was your idea to use prisoners of war to build a house, right?"

You don't need to think about it, you can guess that it is Zhao Zhiguo's method.

Only Zhao Zhiguo dared to be so "extravagant" and use Japanese prisoners of war as free labor.

"Reporting to the commander, the army is busy training. If we look for workers, we have to spend money. Our army's economy is already tight, and the people in Pingcheng don't have much money."

"You have quite a lot of ideas. The discipline of our army is that we cannot abuse prisoners of war."

"Commander, the conscience of heaven and earth, please ask the people around you, I really did not abuse them, I just thought that a prisoner of war violated prisoner of war discipline, so I did it." Zhao Zhiguo said.

"You don't have to quibble about this kind of thing. If you do it wrong, you do it wrong, no matter what the reason is!"

No matter how legitimate the reason is, a mistake is a mistake!

"Also, do you think I'm blind? Those little devils are all sallow and thin. Don't tell me, they were like this when you captured them."

Long-term physical labor, coupled with hunger, had already changed the bodies of these little Japanese prisoners of war.

Zhao Zhiguo lowered his head in embarrassment.

"When will the construction here be completed?"

"It will take another month." Zhao Zhiguo replied.

"After one month, all the Japanese prisoners of war in Pingcheng will be sent to the rear."

"Isn't it good?"

Zhao Zhiguo was a little reluctant. He had already trained these free laborers to be very obedient.

"Want to violate discipline again?"

"Report and the order must be executed."

The deputy commander-in-chief is here, so Zhao Zhiguo can only obey the order.

"Next, let's talk about your punishment." The deputy commander has not forgotten this.

"Chief, if you give an order, I promise to execute it to the letter."

Zhao Zhiguo also knew that the deputy commander-in-chief would not make any concessions on issues of principle.

"Since you still have to manage the troops, the confinement time does not need to be too long, three days!" the deputy commander ordered, "Also, there is no need to send the self-reflection letter you wrote to me. It can be posted directly at the gate of the city so that Pingcheng can

The people will come to supervise you."

"Yes, Chief!" Zhao Zhiguo said, "Chief, I would like to ask, how long do you plan to stay in Pingcheng?"

"What! Are you trying to drive me away in a hurry?"

"Chief, the Independent Regiment is a unit of the Eighth Route Army, and the defense area is our Eighth Route Army's defense area. You are the owner here." Zhao Zhiguo said, "I just want to arrange your next visit plan."

The deputy commander-in-chief is busy with official duties, so Zhao Zhiguo must arrange the plan more closely.

"Well...I definitely don't have time to see the arsenal. Why don't you take me to see your brother's troops?"

The deputy commander would definitely not stay in Pingcheng for too long, but he gained a lot from this trip. He decided to stay a little longer and go down to see the situation of the troops.

"I'll make arrangements right away!"

"No, don't arrange anything. Just stay in the headquarters tonight and write your review. I will check it tomorrow morning."

Of course the deputy commander-in-chief didn't want to see something specially arranged and performed for him.

What he wants is the usual state of the army, which is the most real.

Zhao Zhiguo had no choice but to return to the headquarters to write a letter of apology. The deputy commander-in-chief also gave him a word limit requirement, which was at least 5,000 words.

I was writing vigorously under the oil lamp, and of course I was biting the end of my pencil and racking my brains.

Next door is the duty officer who is fast asleep!

I don't know what time it was, but Zhao Zhiguo also fell asleep on the desk.

In the early morning, a funny message came, and Jack returned to the sight of their surveillance personnel again.

"Is there something big to deal with?" the deputy commander asked.

"It's not a big deal, it's just the little foreigner who told you about the equipment in the Bingzhou Arsenal yesterday."

Jack's appearance in Bingzhou City again meant that he had completed his first contact with the little devil commander.

If there is a second contact, it means there is a problem with the equipment and the probability of success is greater.

"You have good news here, and I have some good news for you too. Good things come in pairs," the deputy commander turned to the staff officer beside him and said, "Take out the things."

"What? So mysterious?"
