While the Eighth Route Army, the National Army, and the Japanese Army were confronting each other in the frontline base areas, the rear base areas ushered in great development.
All the factories under Zhao Gang's control were put into production, and several factories were built in a valley.
The first thing to be built was the power plant. After electricity became available, the match factory, textile factory, flour mill, and paper mill were put into production one after another, and several small workshops were merged.
Among them, the match factory has the highest technical content. Under Zhao Gang's outstanding ideological work, several Japanese who mastered the development method of potassium chlorate were extremely cooperative. Most of the raw materials include poplar, birch, willow, phosphorus, glue, wax flakes, and glass.
You can solve it yourself.
Relying on complete sets of equipment, Huang Liang estimates that with the current output, the entire Tainan area will be able to use self-produced matches in one month.
The newly built textile factory has 25 looms to produce not only large cloth but also woolen products. The annual output can reach 4,000 rugs, 6,000 pairs of felt shoes, and 20,000 felt hats. In addition, it can also produce carpets.
Velvet blankets and other products.
The newly built paper mill uses waste paper, waste linen, waste rope, rags, wheat straw, cotton stalks, mulberry bark, malan grass, cattail grass, straw, etc. as raw materials for papermaking based on the principle of local materials.
In terms of power, power mechanization is adopted. There is a hydraulic oar mill with a power of more than 20 horsepower, which is equivalent to eight horse-drawn trough mills or water mills, with an annual output of up to 5,000 reams (one ream of one thousand halves).
At the same time, several workshops for soap, ink, alcohol, distilled water, etc. were put into large-scale production.
The only pity is that even though more than a dozen students from the cadre school have been transferred, our management personnel are still lacking, and there is still no news of the comrades sent by the enemy's engineering department to northern Henan.
Several members of the leadership team of the Tainan Military Region have their own division of labor.
Xing Zhiguo was responsible for selecting soldiers among the captured puppet troops and forming a new regiment of two thousand people. After the training was completed, they would be added to each regiment.
Zhou Weiguo, with his comrades from the staff office and combat staff officers drawn from various regiments, conducted a large-scale survey of the entire Tainan terrain.
On the one hand, we cultivate the various capabilities of combat staff, and on the other hand, we draw a military sandbox covering the entire Tainan.
After all, Zhou Weiguo attended a regular military school and studied in Germany. He led a group of people to map out the Wuyi area in just four days.
Zhou Weihan, on the other hand, chose a leisurely job for himself, with the reputation of sitting in command and controlling the overall situation.
.......
On the 16th.
Zhou Weihan finished dinner and was correcting documents at the headquarters.
Zhang Yuanlan, the head of the Propaganda Section, suddenly burst in. As soon as he entered the door, he looked around for a moment, and then asked: "Chief, where is Political Commissar Zhao!"
"Young, Comrade Yuan Lan, you are here to see Old Zhao again!" Zhou Weihan's eyes flashed with a smile.
"What do you mean, you're here again? I'm looking for political commissar Zhao to discuss business. It's business!" Zhang Yuanlan explained hurriedly.
"Look, what are you in a hurry for? I didn't say it wasn't business. Lao Zhao is not here. You can tell me anything. If he can do it, I can do it too!"
"You? No!" Zhang Yuanlan looked Zhou Weihan up and down and said.
Zhou Weihan knew clearly why Zhang Yuanlan was looking for Zhao Gang, but he just wanted to make a joke.
Zhao Gang often stayed behind on the Yama Mountain, and he didn't know when, but suddenly his relationship with Zhang Yuanlan became extremely close. Zhou Weihan only discovered this recently.
"Then let's talk about it, why can't I do it? I'm no better than that guy Zhao Gang!" Zhou Weihan said unconvinced.
"Prior to joining the army, Political Commissar Zhao was a college student at Yan State University. He was knowledgeable and cultured. He could fight on a horse and write articles with his pen. He was gentle to others and always had a smile on his face. Comrades all said that Political Commissar Zhao was good!" Zhang Yuanlan
It almost made Zhao Gang look good.
Zhou Weihan suddenly became sour when he heard this: "Fuck..., no, I also graduated from Yan University, and I don't lack arms or legs. I usually only focus on fighting and don't have time, otherwise I would
You can also publish two articles in the newspaper."
"Look, you are still cursing, and comrades are secretly afraid of you, saying you are too cruel!"
"Okay, you are quite discerning. Rare treasures like Lao Zhao are rare in our Eighth Route Army. Cherish the opportunity!"
Zhang Yuanlan blushed when she was told that, but still explained: "I really have business with Political Commissar Zhao!"
While the two were talking, Zhao Gang came back from work.
As soon as Zhang Yuanlan saw Zhao Gang, she immediately said: "Political Commissar, you are giving your opinions on this script!"
"Yes, Political Commissar Zhao, hurry up, Comrade Yuan Lan has been waiting for you for a long time!" Zhou Weihan said in a strange tone from the side.
"Young, you changed it so quickly, let me take a look!" Zhao Gang didn't even have time to eat, he took the script directly and sat on the table in the hall.
The two of them began to discuss the matter one by one, while Zhou Weihan stared blankly at the side.
Not to mention, when Zhou Weihan looked at them, he suddenly felt that the two of them were a good match made in heaven.
After Zhang Yuanlan left, only Zhou Weihan and Zhao Gang were left in the headquarters.
I saw Zhou Weihan say in a sour tone: "Hey, Commissar Zhao is really working hard. He is busy working during the day and has to come back to discuss the script at night!"
Zhao Gang reacted very excitedly and pointed at Zhou Weihan and said: "I asked you what's wrong with you. My lesbian was here just now. I don't have the nerve to tell you. Why are you staring at me with your eyes wide open?"
"Also, don't be such a weirdo. If word spread, it will be bad for other lesbians!"
"Come on, Lao Zhao, just ask the people in the command center about this matter. Who doesn't know?"
"A grown man needs a partner, and the same goes for relationships. Let me tell you, after you two stabilize, I will report to your superiors on your behalf. Do you think that's okay?" Zhou Weihan asked with a smile.
"No!" Zhao Gang immediately rejected Zhou Weihan's suggestion.
"Look at all our comrades in the Tainan Military Region. Except for those soldiers who were disabled due to injuries, who has a wife?"
"Comrades Ding Dabapan and Li Yunshan haven't settled yet. Let's not mention that the conditions of the 285th Regiment are not met. As a political commissar, I have to set an example. I can't do it myself when all the comrades are single.
Marry a wife first, what a nonsense!"
"The people in the team cannot be dissatisfied, otherwise we will not be able to lead the team in the future!"
Zhao Gang gave many reasons in one breath, but Zhou Weihan could see that Zhao Gang did have a good impression of Zhang Yuanlan.
The 285th Regiment was proposed by Comrade Xiang Wu, but it has been modified in various base areas of the Eighth Route Army and is not static.
But as Zhao Gang said, as a political commissar, he really needs to set an example.
"Then let's cultivate our relationship first. When the Anti-Japanese War is won, I will personally arrange the wedding for you, Lao Zhao!"
Zhou Weihan said in his heart, "Old Zhao, you have a wife who won't hug you, so you have to squeeze into the same kang with me."
