"Why do I always feel that the 144 barrier is too easy to hit?" Ren Xiaosu asked curiously: "Will there be any accidents? Let's be careful."
Looking at the granary being burned For most of the day, the armored brigade was still running back to the north to provide support. By the time the armored brigade arrived, I'm afraid the sharp knife company had already gone to nowhere.
There is little resistance in the entire barrier. Although there is chaos inside the barrier, most of it is due to the panic of the residents.
The deputy captain on the side was speechless when he heard what Ren Xiaosu said. Is this easy? You have killed three regiment leaders, and you have the deputy captain in your hands. Is this easy?
Are you speaking human language?
When the granary was burned, Ren Xiaosu discovered that one-third of the granary was empty. He asked the deputy commander: "Has all this food been transported to the front line?"
"No," the deputy commander shook his head: "They were all bought by the generals under various names before the war."
"They have to buy their own food during the war?" Ren Xiaosu was stunned. Lived.
"No, they plan to sell to the residents at a higher price during the war. The higher-ups don't know about this. The generals said that they will sell the grain to them now and they will make up for it later when the price of grain drops. The inventory will be good, no one will find out, after all, the war in the original plan did not use much food," the deputy commander said: "At least it will not be used up."
But it is better now, Ren Xiaosu. It actually provided cover in disguise for those generals of the Zong clan who were secretly hoarding food. Once the fire broke out, no one knew that one-third of the food here was missing.
What makes Ren Xiaosu unhappy is that although the burning of the granary this time seems to have a great impact on the war, it is definitely not fatal, because the food is scattered, and the Zong Consortium always has a way to find the lost food. return.
......
At this time, all the generals in the Zong family headquarters had their faces as sinking as water. Commander Zong Ying suddenly dropped the pen in his hand on the table: "This Zong affairs What was he doing? He had already agreed to lead the 131st Brigade to hunt down the enemy, and also sent two extraordinary men. Why did he allow the enemy to burn down the 144th Barrier under his nose? And what were the garrison at the 144th Barrier doing? Can't we organize any defense forces and watch the enemy burn down the granary?" As he said, Zong Ying's anger was about to explode: "Kill their captain... ”
Before he finished speaking, Zong Ying remembered that the 1237th regiment did not have a leader at this time, and even the deputy leader ran away.
When I’m angry, there’s no one I can use as a scapegoat to vent my anger!
"Commander, the matter has come to this, we have to think of countermeasures," said a general.
"Mobilize all the food reserves in the barriers, collect all the reserves, and you also have some food in your hands, hand it over to me. This matter involves the success or failure of the consortium, so stop making your own calculations. Yes! Do you think I don’t know what you did?” Zong Ying said coldly.
This is to convert the entireAll the Zong's food reserves were concentrated on the front line, including food in the homes of residents in the barrier.
There is also a lot of food in the hands of the generals.
When they knew that there was going to be a war, many generals learned about the war in advance and began to buy and hoard food. They knew very well that the price of food would definitely increase when the war started.
Although a pound of rice only costs more than one yuan, many people always think that this thing can make money? But if a war breaks out, the price of rice might be four or five yuan, or even rise to ten yuan.
The residents in the barrier will not starve to death by then, so the money in the hands of those residents will eventually be collected by these hoarding generals.
Who wouldn’t care about ten times the huge profits? This is sucking the blood of the residents of the barrier.
Suddenly a general said: "The question now is what to do with the troops of Fortress 178? We can't continue to allow them to cause chaos in the rear, right?"
Zong Ying was also feeling miserable. , of course he knew that if he kept tossing the sharp knife like this, he might not even have to fight.
But now that they know what this sharp knife company relies on, what can they do with this sharp knife company?
The so-called blitzkrieg in the war is to use aircraft and tanks, tank troops, artillery, armor and motorized infantry to form a dense armored assault group, with the coordination of tactical air force, to quickly break through the enemy's defense line, and It is a mode of quickly intersecting and maneuvering towards the enemy's deep targets, dividing and surrounding the enemy, and thus carrying out annihilation operations against the enemy.
Now that they have no planes, they can only rely on tanks.
On the battlefield, tanks with a speed of 60 per hour are called lightning, so what the hell is a tank with a speed of 120 per hour?
Compared with the speed of a steam train, the speed of our own tank is like a tractor, how can we chase it!
"Launch the follow-up plan in advance," Zong Ying said coldly: "If 178 Fortress thinks that this can win the war, then it is too underestimated for my Zong family. I want to make 178 Fortress chicken and dog invincible. "Stay."
That night, several pontoon bridges on the Blackstone River remained motionless amid the waves. They were the supply lines and lifelines that Fortress 178 relied on to advance. They must be extremely strong and maintained by engineering battalions every day. Maintenance and replacement of accessories.
However, on the black surface of the night, hundreds of speedboats suddenly approached the pontoon of the Black Stone River crazily. At first, these speedboats were propelled manually by the soldiers on the boats using oars, so that they could move quietly. It is about ten kilometers away from the floating bridge silently.
But when they entered the ten-kilometer range, the speedboats suddenly pulled their engines and roared towards the pontoon. A large number of TNT explosives were placed on these speedboats.
When the garrison of Fortress 178 near the Blackstone River discovered them, it was already too late.
Amidst the roar of heavy machine guns, they tried to intercept these speedboats, but there were too many speedboats, and they all came with the determination to die, as if they were not willing to die. ,
Rumbles of explosions were heard, and before the speedboats were about to hit the pontoon, the Zong soldiers on the boats lit the detonators attached to the TNT explosives.
The moment the detonator burst, the TNT was detonated, and the entire huge pontoon was broken from the middle.
As the Zong soldiers desperately attacked the pontoon bridge and detonated explosives, the pontoon bridge that Fortress 178 relied on to cross the river actually shattered and floated downstream.
For a time, the Blackstone River once again cut the 178 Fortress troops on both sides of the river into two parts. At this time, the 178 Fortress troops on the north bank had no way out and no supplies.
The fortress generals on the north bank all looked at Zhang Jinglin: "Commander, what should we do? Let's..."
In the military camp, Zhang Jinglin frowned and looked at the raging fire on the river in the distance. : "Prepare for a last-ditch battle!"
But the Zong family's plan is still not over here. An elite force of the Zong family has already set off from the Alxa League in the rear and plunged into the Gobi. Like a bayonet until it pierces the northwest 178 fortress!
