Chapter 549: Cannon Fodder in the War
We waited for another two days, and the situation there became more and more intense, with even details leaking out. This was an operation they had been planning long ago against the Knights' Group.
The entire plan was planned by Professor Taniguchi. Although they suffered heavy casualties and losses in this operation, which could be said to be a loss of 800 of their own while hurting the enemy 1,000, they did not regret it.
This incident also proved to everyone that the Knights' Group was not unattainable and indestructible. As long as they planned properly, they could still be defeated.
Moreover, the Japanese were still celebrating, while the Red Army had been suppressing their anger these days, and many soldiers who had received favors from the Knights Group were even more furious!
They then fought the devils with extraordinary bravery, not stopping even when their eyes were red with killing. The red team went there with the intention of avenging the Knights' Group.
The day finally arrived for the Knights' Group to contact their leader. Ning Xiaoxiao came from the space and installed the telegraph.
At this time, in a certain command center, all the leaders were waiting in front of the telegram with the Knight Group, staring at the indicator light on the telegram, waiting for it to light up.
When the time came, the indicator light came on as scheduled. The leaders' eyes were red, but no one made a sound, for fear of disturbing the communication of the telegram's content!
The operator calmed down and pressed the answer button. At this time, the beeping sound coming from the headset was like the sound of nature, more beautiful than any song in the world.
"Report, the Knights send their regards to the leadership!" Ning Xiaoxiao sent the same message as usual. After sending the message, she waited for the leadership's instructions.
Little did she know, these few words made the recipient of the telegram cheer.
"I knew it, I knew they would be fine. Well done to them, they are all great!"
"Come on, do you want to look at the dark circles under your eyes before you speak?"
"Get out of the way! How can you be any better than me?" Although they had never met the Knights, after getting along with them for a year, they had already regarded them as their comrades-in-arms and brothers they could trust with their backs!
"The Japs' grand celebration must not be groundless. The Knights must have suffered casualties as well, but we don't know the extent of their casualties." As soon as these words came out, everyone fell into deep thought.
All members of the Knights' Group are different from everyone else. Each of them has some unknown special methods, which they have known for a long time.
Therefore, the leaders of the Knights' Group have never met with them. All their leaders understand and support this. They know the true identities of the members of the Knights' Group. The fewer people who know, the safer it is.
After all, no one can guarantee that there are no spies around them, and there is no guarantee that someone will have other ideas once they know that they have some special abilities.
In fact, if possible, they all wanted to protect all the members of the Knights' Group. That way, they wouldn't just sit there and wait anxiously when they knew they were in danger, without being able to help at all.
Although they knew that the members of the Knight Corps were all strong, and were even stronger than many warriors, and their abilities could be seen from the battles they had participated in, they still did not want their comrades in the Knight Corps to go to the battlefield.
In their eyes, the members of the Knights' Corps were far more valuable than the soldiers themselves! Bullets on the battlefield had no eyes, so they were extremely worried about every move the Knights' Corps made, fearing they would be harmed.
Therefore, both parties care about each other, guard each other silently, and stick to the promises they made to each other.
This time, the content of the reply telegram was personally instructed by the leader!
Ning Xiaoxiao waited for a while before receiving several messages. They were all concerned about their casualties, asking if they were serious, whether they needed help, and what had happened to Professor Taniguchi on the day of the explosion.
When Ning Xiaoxiao heard this, she finally realized what they were worried about!
But why does it feel so weird? Why such a big reaction? She's done similar things before!
However, he still answered the leader's questions, saying that the Knight Corps was fine and did not need any help for the time being. He also briefly recounted what happened that day, saying that before the bomb exploded that day, all the comrades in the Knight Corps were evacuated safely, and thanked the leader for his concern.
After hearing this, the leader was completely relieved.
However, they also knew in their hearts that things that day would be far from as simple as the telegram said, and it would definitely be full of dangers and extremely risky.
If the Japanese were not certain, they would not have publicized it so blatantly and contradicted themselves in the face!
Then he said that from now on, the Knights should report to the leader every time they complete a task. If there are any difficulties or if they need help, they can always ask the leader!
But the leaders started to think about it again. Since the Knights' Group was fine, the Japanese also thought that the members of the Knights' Group were in trouble. They thought about it carefully and saw if they could take advantage of the situation and do something about it!
Ning Xiaoxiao also understood that this was the leaders' concern for her, so she naturally would not refuse!
The next day, she went out of her way to buy a few newspapers. Only then did she understand why her leader was so worried about her! It turned out the Japanese actually believed that the members of the Knights' Group had been killed in the bombing that day, and they even told all the details.
Even the explosives later on, which they believed had been prepared long ago by the Knights' Group, were part of their plan.
Ning Xiaoxiao was speechless. This was so realistic, so real. If she wasn't involved, he would have believed it. However, she didn't think about clarifying the matter.
Her boss told her last night to keep quiet before receiving the next assignment and take advantage of this time to have a good rest.
Ning Xiaoxiao naturally had no objection. She sent another batch of things she bought from other countries to her leader.
A few days later, Ning Xiaoxiao received instructions from their leader. They were told to switch from being overt to covert and avoid direct confrontation with the devils.
Her main task is to be a good Chinese postman. They will buy some supplies from other countries and use the channels of the Knight Group to transport the supplies back from abroad, so that they can save a lot of customs duties!
Their help may also be needed in the transportation of large objects within the country, or for some other small tasks, such as robbing Japanese military factories, or temporary tasks of quick rescue.
The contact method was also changed from seven days to a certain time within three days, and then changed to once every other day.
If Ning Xiaoxiao discovered some secret bases or secret operations of the Japanese, she could apply to the leadership for major matters, or inform the school leadership before taking action, and she could make decisions on small matters herself.
But you can also tell your leader about it afterwards. After all, some things are closely related to the Red Army’s undercover personnel!
Ning Xiaoxiao had no objection! She was not good at war or politics anyway, so since she didn't understand, she just listened to the professionals.
Moreover, the biggest hidden danger, that is, the bacterial and viral battle, has been solved by her, so leave the rest to the red team's soldiers!
I believe that the soldiers have nothing to worry about when facing the Japanese as long as they have enough food and weapons. When it comes to intrigue and trickery on the battlefield, the Chinese are better than anyone else!
Ning Xiaoxiao was willing to do some behind-the-scenes work. Ever since she had witnessed the cruelty of the battlefield, she no longer liked going to the battlefield! Because once on the battlefield, it was okay for the enemy to fall, but she couldn't bear to see her own people fall.
She would feel distressed and reluctant, and even more so, she couldn't bear to watch her comrades holding the bodies of their comrades who had been with them day and night after the war, but she was powerless to change anything, and was as helpless as a child.
She didn't want to face that kind of situation again. She couldn't bear it and wanted to explode, go crazy, and drag the Japanese down with her to die together.
So she accepted all the arrangements made by her leader.
In the process of increasingly close communication with her, the leader naturally got to know some of the characters of the knights and vaguely saw their strengths and weaknesses.
Their strengths were undeniable, and the Knights had laid them out in the open without a trace of concealment. As for their weaknesses, it was their lack of ambition, their carefree nature.
However, they also have great hatred for the Japanese. They are extremely close to the Red Army, do their best to treat them well, help them wholeheartedly, support everything they do, and are very tolerant or indulgent of them.
But they turned a blind eye to the White Party, who were also Chinese. The White Party members could only watch helplessly. Even if they openly extended an olive branch with great benefits, they remained indifferent.
It can be seen that they are the kind of people who clearly distinguish between gratitude and resentment, and their chivalrous spirit is fully displayed.
How can leaders not be happy with someone who is capable, has a bottom line and has this kind of personality?
Ning Xiaoxiao took a notebook and wrote down her work content, and also took an alarm clock and set several time points!
It took her half a month to coordinate her work content with her leader.
She also slowly got into work mode, helping the Red Army transport some large items, and occasionally supplies and food on the battlefield!
This is not difficult for her, so she has more time to grow crops, vegetables and medicinal herbs in space!
The Japanese saw that the Knights hadn't made any moves recently, and the battle between them and the Red Army was getting more intense. They believed that their guess was correct, and even believed that they had touched the Knights' lifeline, causing them serious damage.
During this time, they transferred a batch of supplies from the country and put them on the battlefield. They launched a full-scale war against the Red Army, as if the Knights had never appeared, and all the battles were back on track.
As time went by, it seemed as if God was testing the Chinese people's ability to survive! Just as the situation on the battlefield was improving, natural disasters struck.
In the spring, the north suffered a severe drought, which caused the crops to wither severely and the grain to fail! Then, locusts ravaged the land, further reducing grain production.
The leaders had to divert their attention from the battlefield and focus on the people in the north. They sent the food they had previously purchased from abroad to the north, and even wanted to save the soldiers' rations and give them to the farmers!
Moreover, the officials here are not competent, and there are a lot of corrupt officials. Not much of the food sent actually reaches the people!
Helpless, Ning Xiaoxiao asked her leader for instructions and then took action!
She was determined not to allow the grain she had painstakingly brought back from abroad to fall into the hands of corrupt officials. She collected evidence of the corrupt officials' crimes, removed the grain and property they had embezzled, and then delivered it to the people in each village.
If there was not enough food, she would just add more herself, and she had no worries about the village chief embezzling it! Because the food she donated was in full view of everyone, everyone knew the amount, which would effectively prevent corruption.
Ning Xiaoxiao not only delivered food, vegetables and drinking water to the people, but also used up all the sweet potato vines, sweet potato leaves, pumpkins, pumpkin vines and other things in her space, as long as they were non-toxic and edible!
She single-handedly handled the entire natural disaster, so that although the people of the entire city could not have enough to eat, at least the number of people who died of starvation was greatly reduced.
Moreover, all she did was to publicize the reputation of the Red Army, telling the victims that all the food was dispatched and donated by the Red Army leaders, and that it was all saved from the rations of the Red Army soldiers who were fighting the Japanese!
Now, the Red Team, which already had a very good reputation, became famous again, and the people began to be grateful to the Red Team leaders and soldiers!
When the White team's leaders saw this, their eyes turned red with jealousy, but they were helpless.
The Red Army's senior leaders observed all of this, felt a warming sensation in their hearts as they touched the chivalrous group's exclusive token. While deeply moved, they also understood the immense pressure the chivalrous group was under, and suggested that they temporarily stop providing rations for the soldiers.
Although Ning Xiaoxiao didn't lose much food in her space, she couldn't just sit back and enjoy it. After all, the war was still several years away from ending! Oh, and there was a major natural disaster shortly after the war ended. It seemed that she couldn't stop growing the sweet potatoes, corn, and pumpkins in her space, and she had to plant a lot more.
Fortunately, the sweet potato varieties she donated were all improved. They still release sugar even when roasted, and since they were grown in a space, the taste and yield were unmatched. They were no longer those dry, powdery, white-hearted sweet potatoes, nor were they as difficult to swallow as the older varieties. Otherwise, not only would it choke you for miles, but it would also cause extreme stomach discomfort.
After Ning Xiaoxiao distributed the food in batches, she took the time to go abroad and visit gang bosses from various countries!
The gang leaders' eyes lit up when they saw her, and they were extremely enthusiastic. The drug addicts under them were still crying out for her products, saying that after using her products, other products were hard to swallow.
Even the price of drugs kept rising. Ning Xiaoxiao shook her hands again and said, "Amitabha, may all the Bodhisattvas and gods forgive me. This was not her intention."
Then she thought of her compatriots in the country who were almost starving, and she went against her conscience and traded drugs for several batches of supplies, weapons and food!
After all, she had already made an agreement with the gang leader last time. She even gave them a list, indicating that she needed these things for a long time and could purchase them in large quantities.
So this time I just come here to trade.
Well, let little pudding be little pudding, she can’t care about so many things now!
When the leader learned that she had purchased grain from abroad, he sent her money and gold and silver. Ning Xiaoxiao accepted them all without refusing!
Of course, the food donations to the soldiers did not stop. Now that we had received the money, we naturally couldn’t let the soldiers go to fight on an empty stomach!
Moreover, the Japanese seemed to be short of food and began to secretly try to steal the people's rations! The Red Army naturally would not agree, so the war began to shift from the city to the countryside, starting the battle to defend food.
The people fully supported, cooperated with and endorsed the Red Army soldiers. The Red Army soldiers made very smooth progress. The close relationship between the army and the people was once again vividly demonstrated!
