In the smoke of gunfire, the first regiment emptied all the ammunition clips and spare bullets, and gave up the defense line to the eager second regiment. They walked towards the camp in a neat formation with their legs. However, the previous vehicles had already been withdrawn. They had no choice but to save fuel.
Seeing the soldiers on foot, Cao Lidong said with great feeling:
"You can really save money. How can you even deduct this amount of oil when so many cities are destroyed?"
Zhang Xiaoqiang said with disapproval:
"When 800000 survivors are brought back, they will consume more fuel. Now there is a little more left, and we will be able to save a few more..."
Hearing Zhang Xiaoqiang's words, Cao Lidong immediately changed his face and asked hesitantly:
"You... Are you really willing to accept the 800000 survivors?"
Seeing the gravity in Cao Lidong's eyes, Zhang Xiaoqiang immediately knew what he was thinking and why Cao Lidong hesitated to join him
"800000 survivors are 800000 productive forces. There is no shortage of places and food here. What we lack is producers who can turn raw materials into finished products and then into combat effectiveness."
Zhang Xiaoqiang didn't say anything. He started from the relationship between supply and demand, which is more convincing. At least Cao Lidong believed that Zhang Xiaoqiang could provide so many materials. Cao Lidong believed that he knew the three cities before the end of the world. If they could accommodate millions of people, it would be a loss, and the materials would be enough for millions of people to use for a long time.
"So... What do you need me to do?"
Cao Lidong asked repeatedly. It is obvious that Zhang Xiaoqiang's decision is very important to him. This time he came out to explore the way, not so much to find a way out for the top management as to find a way out for 800000 survivors.
Before that, it was because of the difficulty of mountain roads and the difficulty of material support that it became a headache for the senior leaders of the Northeast allied forces. If Zhang Xiaoqiang is willing to take the initiative to cooperate, the problem is not the problem. There is a great chance that 800000 survivors will survive.
"Ha ha, it's too early to talk about this. Let's recover the city in front of us first..."
Zhang Xiaoqiang gave a ha ha, but he refused to tell him the follow-up plan. It's very simple. What Zhang Xiaoqiang needs is a population of 800000, but not the top leaders of the Northeast alliance. Through Cao Lidong's narration, he knows the virtues of those top leaders. Except for yuan Heping, Zhang Xiaoqiang doesn't want these people to have a foothold next to his foundation, Otherwise, he would have to take back the lost land and wipe out the zombies, and he would also have to guard against the stabbing of those people, and he hated such people most. Even with the great righteousness of 800000 people, he would not want to compromise.
The fighting style of the second regiment is the same as that of the first regiment. Standing on the other side of the river, the second regiment shoots safely, and uses ammunition to slow down the speed of the Zombie's filling the river. The corpse on the other side of the river will become a stumbling block and obstacle for the zombie to move forward.
No matter how high the corpse pile is, it can't be a natural moat for zombies to cross. No matter how wide the river is, it can't hold many corpses. When layers of zombies settle at the bottom of the water, it's the beginning of zombies rushing across the river.
At dusk, the soldiers of the second regiment put away their rifles one after another, put their backpacks full of cartridge cases on their backs, and lined up to walk towards the camp. Behind them, the claws of countless zombies were raised out of the ground again.
The withdrawal of the second regiment declared the end of the blocking battle along the river. At the same time, it also declared that 1.5 million bullets had been consumed. When each soldier went to battle, he was carrying four clips and 180 scattered bullets, which was exactly the base number of 300 bullets.
The total number of the two regiments is 5000, which is only the consumption of rifle bullets, heavy machine gun bullets, mortars and recoilless guns. More than 200 rockets were consumed and more than 80 zombies were killed.
According to rough estimates, one day today, the flood and the two regiments' interception consumed about 200000 zombies' troops. This is an achievement based on the fact that no long-range, no oil, or even heavy firepower of more than 12.7mm caliber was used.
Zhang Xiaoqiang is quite satisfied with this. He wiped out 200000 zombies without a single soldier, which was unthinkable in the past. And this battle plan was not made by him, but by the following staff headquarters according to the terrain. This shows that Zhang Xiaoqiang's army has gradually matured, and the soldiers are used to fighting with zombies and begin to transform into elite, At least it's no worse than the elite killed among millions of zombies in the resistance battle in the gathering place.
The distance of 20 kilometers is not enough for the zombies to rush to the main position overnight. On the ground between the zombies and the main position, thousands of half meter deep trenches have been dug by the troops below. These trenches are the stumbling blocks for the zombies to advance. This is also the time for the troops to prepare for the war.
The investigation troops equipped with night vision devices constantly report the zombies to the combat center at night, while the staff of the combat center constantly move the zombies in advance on the sand table. Compared with the tense atmosphere below, Zhang Xiaoqiang seems very calm and says this to Kong Sanju before going to bed.Kong Sanju is now a lieutenant officer in Zhang Xiaoqiang's Quartermaster logistics department. Zhang Xiaoqiang has fulfilled his promises one by one. Although Kong Sanju has good skills, he doesn't care that Zhang Xiaoqiang puts him in the logistics department and obeys the orders of ordinary Chen Fei.
For Kong Sangu, his experience in Helan Mountain really made him afraid of poverty. In the first few months, it was OK. All kinds of materials without money worked hard. Later, when materials were in short supply, his life was not as good as his farming days before the end of the world.
Kong Sanju is a farmer. He is not very clear about his ancestors. However, the martial arts handed down by his ancestors are solid and strong. However, no matter how high his kung fu is, he can't make his family rich. It's just a skill handed down by his ancestors.
In Kong Sangju's generation, he was the only one of the three cousins who was willing to learn this skill and had to suffer a lot to practice it. However, his son was too hard to learn because he was protected by his wife. His three grandfathers had to break the ancestral precepts and chose Liu Lu as the successor of martial arts.
According to Kong Sanju's previous character, he was destined not to be a hero who took advantage of the chaos, but a thug at most. Before Zhang Xiaoqiang appeared, he did the same. He had no loyalty, only interests, and could kill his companions in order to survive.
Zhang Xiaoqiang doesn't resent Kong Sanju. The reason is very simple. He pursues profit. As long as he can keep feeding, he is his dog. The premise is that no one can have the chance to feed him.
"At the beginning, Luo Kaishan was not the leader. At that time, Luo Kaishan was nominally the leader of the militia, and the manager was the director of the Public Security Bureau of a county. Yunpeng ate people in the valley. Tens of thousands of people were very afraid. There were zombies outside, and there was no place to hide. Later, no one could do anything about it. The director said, let Yunpeng eat people, and when he was tired of eating, he would not eat.
The director's words annoyed Luo Kaishan. Luo Kaishan took the initiative to stand at the top of the mountain and wait for the big bird. When the big bird came, Luo Kaishan directly fought with the big bird. The big bird scratched Luo's face, and Luo Kaishan also knocked the big bird unconscious.
After the big bird was caught, the director wanted to eat meat, and Luokai mountain was on fire. At that time, Luo Kaishan and I had a good relationship. We did all the work of the director and his cronies. Luokai mountain called himself the king of Kaishan, and the people in the valley convinced him.
Now there are still some people who offer the memorial tablet of luokaishan in private. Many people point at my spine and curse my mother when they have nothing to do. They are all ordinary people. They just scold. Many people still thank you for your kindness. You gave them something that luokaishan can't give them... "
Kong Sanju squatted in front of Zhang Xiaoqiang, smoking and talking about the past of the valley. There are many things that Zhang Xiaoqiang heard for the first time. He also has a little respect for Luo Kaishan in his heart. In the end, he has such a heroic side when he meets the most powerful opponent.
But Zhang Xiaoqiang didn't come to listen to him tell Luo Kaishan. Sitting on a stone, he straightened his leg, massaged his knee and asked:
"You'd better tell me how the cloud sculpture is tamed..."
Kong San Ju nodded, took a fierce puff of the cigarette end that was left behind, put it on the bottom of his foot and stamped it out
"At that time, many people wanted to kill the big bird, but luokaishan refused. He wanted to tame the big bird, but the big bird had a big temper and hated luokaishan who hurt it. Luokaishan was very upset about it, My younger martial brother is responsible for feeding the big bird. He comes and goes, and the big bird is used to it. Later one day, the guard was careless and didn't notice that the big bird broke the hemp rope. As a result, he was rushed out of the cave by the big bird. At that time, my younger martial brother was there. He rushed up to hold the big bird and didn't let it run away. "
