Chapter 410: I like to drink good wine, but I can afford it but I can't buy it! 1 update today!
Li Yunlong really had no objection to this. If the soldiers did not have enough food in their stomachs, they would not be able to do some high-intensity training at all, which would seriously affect the combat effectiveness of the troops. As someone who had led troops in battles for many years, he knew this very well.
"College students, over the past year or so, the team has grown from less than 2000 people to the current to people, nearly four times the number of people, and the weapons and equipment have been replaced several times. Now we have tanks, planes and artillery. Even I dare not think that such a good thing can fall on my head."
"It's too difficult to solve the meat problem. If there are wild cattle and sheep in the nearby grasslands, we can think of hunting them. But the fact is that in the past few months, Hu Shengli and Liu Wensheng have not found any wild cattle and sheep on the grasslands. The only way we can do now is to raise them ourselves, but large-scale breeding is still very difficult and not worth the effort!"
"If there were any herdsmen nearby, we could use our food, salt, and tea to exchange for them. But according to our aerial reconnaissance, there are no inhabitants within a thousand miles of the area, so we can't find anyone to exchange with even if we want to."
"If you, a college student, hadn't invented fried cottonseed oil, the soldiers would have had some oil in their stomachs, and their faces would have gone from being pale to rosy. It took half a year, and the consumption was enormous. If we hadn't been busy with something urgent, the soldiers would have only been able to dream of eating oily meals."
"I, Li Yunlong, usually only drink sweet potato wine. It's not that I, Li Yunlong, don't like good wine, but I just can't afford it! College students, if we want to get a lot of meat in the future, we can only do it through Chen Minggeng."
Lin Zhenhua could hear the anger and helplessness in Li Yunlong's heart. After all, based on Li Yunlong's previous temper, he was absolutely unwilling to continue cooperating with Chen Minggeng. However, the news from Wang Tiezhu forced the two to change their minds again.
"Old Li, our situation is already very difficult right now. We really can't do what we want. Without raw materials, our arsenal can't start production. If we can't produce weapons, we won't be able to compete with the devils. I wanted to use Chu Yunfei to solve our food crisis, but plans can't keep up with changes. The upcoming drought and the plague that have already appeared won't give us time. We must do everything we can to strengthen our strength and increase our reserves."
"We must increase the volume of transactions with Chu Yunfei, even at any cost, to get more raw materials from him to increase the production of our various weapons. I don't know why, but I feel a little uneasy. Dr. Yano disappeared too strangely. I always feel that this plague is related to him. If this was really done by the devils..."
Lin Zhenhua did not continue speaking. Li Yunlong also understood that the last time he attacked Ping'an County, he specifically looked for Dr. Yano but did not find any trace of him. This was completely unreasonable.
"College student, it seems that the Japanese want to practice with Chu Yunfei's 358th Regiment before attacking us. Only in this way can they conform to the current facts. I hope that the medicines you produced in advance are useful, otherwise things will be really serious. Once the plague spreads, the consequences will be disastrous!" Li Yunlong speculated worriedly.
Lin Zhenhua has the same opinion on this matter. For now, he can only take one step at a time and hope that the preparations made in advance are effective. Otherwise, he will have to temporarily suspend the transaction with Chu Yunfei. After the situation is under control, he will continue the transaction between the two parties. He must not let the plague spread.
At the Niujiagou 358th Regiment Field Hospital, Dr. Wang Xuecheng took out several medicines prepared by Lin Zhenhua and used them on more than 300 fever patients according to the treatment plan prepared in advance. Half of them have shown signs of improvement, which is a very good signal.
"Chief of Staff Fang, the treatment results are still very good. I suggest increasing the dosage of the medicine and see the effect. Now we can only try little by little and do our best to treat the patient. As for the final result, I dare not make any guarantees. Now is the early stage of the plague, the symptoms are still relatively mild and relatively easy to treat."
"It's just that more than 60 people have serious symptoms, which makes treatment very difficult. There is a high chance of a fatality rate. Chief of Staff Fang, please be mentally prepared in advance. In the end, it is very likely that none of these people will be saved."
"The most important thing for us now is to control the spread of the plague. This is the prevention and control plan I have formulated. You must immediately arrange for its implementation. Each of these is a lesson learned through blood, and we cannot compromise on them in the slightest. Otherwise, we would be taking human lives lightly."
"The plague is so terrible. I don't need to tell the Chief of Defense Staff again. I hope everyone will strictly follow my instructions and avoid a situation like tonight. It will not only harm him, but also put others in danger."
Chief of Staff Fang Ligong's face twitched, and he was very angry inside. His anger was not directed at Wang Xuecheng, but at Wang Changming. He didn't expect that someone would dare to break into the field hospital. If someone hadn't pleaded for him, he would definitely have shot him on the spot.
"Doctor Wang, I promise that something like this won't happen again. You can rest assured! I have deployed two companies of soldiers to take charge of the outer defense. Anyone who dares to trespass will be shot to death!"
Wang Xuecheng didn't say anything more. After all, he was just a doctor and had no say in many things. He could only make suggestions. As for whether Fang Ligong would listen or not, he really had no way of controlling it.
The lights in the independent regiment were bright, and Kong Jie and Ding Wei were talking in high spirits. They had captured Japanese spies and traitors in the past two days and achieved remarkable results. What made them most happy was that they captured a 12-member combat team of Yamamoto's special forces, found out the truth about the attack on the arsenal, and uncovered the traitor hiding in the arsenal.
"Lao Zhao, Lao Kong and I have captured 28 Japanese spies, 36 traitors, and 42 Japanese action team members in the past two days, basically clearing out the Japanese hidden forces in the base. We also seized two Japanese radio stations, 16 submachine guns, six grenade launchers, two mortars, 36 pistols, and a total of more than 1000 rounds of ammunition. It can be said that the harvest is quite fruitful!" Ding Wei said in detail.
After Ding Wei finished speaking, Kong Jie added: "Lao Zhao, Lao Ding and I will start investigating the Japanese spies hidden among the victims tomorrow, but it will be very troublesome and time-consuming. I estimate that it will take at least a month. For now, we can only carry out preliminary cleaning and eliminate some of the shallower ones. As for those who are hiding deeper, they cannot be found for the time being. This matter can only be done bit by bit, and we must not be too impatient, otherwise it will easily cause panic!"
Zhao Gang listened to the two quietly, then replied worriedly, "You two have made too much noise in your counter-espionage work these past two days, and it has affected the normal operation of the base. However, many people have come to me to complain, and I am now in a dilemma."
"Don't be anxious, both of you. Listen to me slowly. This is the telegram that Doctor Wang Xuecheng just sent. Take a look. Sometimes we have to say that the Japanese spies are just lucky. We didn't expect to encounter such a thing at this time. This is a matter of life and death for us. More than 80 residents are facing a huge threat. If this threat is not resolved, the harm it causes will be no less than a war!"
"Doctor Wang Xuecheng has confirmed that the 358th Regiment has indeed been hit by the plague, and is now trying their best to treat the infected. This is not good news for us, and the situation is much worse than we imagined. We no longer have the energy to fight against espionage at this time. Our next focus needs to be on preventing the plague. We must not let the plague spread in our base, otherwise it will be very difficult to control."
"The exchange of materials with the 358th Regiment requires strict disinfection procedures and is carried out according to the emergency plan developed by the college students. This matter requires the three of us to keep an eye on it, and there is really no way to take care of other things in the short term."
Just as Zhao Gang was about to talk about the arrangements for the next few days, the telegraph operator rushed in. After handing the telegram to Lin Changqing to Zhao Gang, he had time to wipe the cold sweat from his forehead.
Ding Wei immediately poured a glass of water for the telegraph operator Lin Changqing. After Lin Changqing took it, he tilted his head back and drank it. Only then did he feel his mouth was not so dry. After seeing the contents of the telegram, Zhao Gang was horrified. There was a plague in Ping'an County and the devils had blocked the city gates. If he hadn't read the telegram three times in a row and confirmed that there was no problem with the contents, Zhao Gang really couldn't believe that the telegram was true.
Zhao Gang handed the telegram in his hand to Ding Wei and Kong Jie. Lin Changqing, who had drunk his tea, had already left. The entire command center fell silent. The three really couldn't believe that the information was true. It was completely different from their guesses.
"Old Zhao, if what Xu Zhongyi said is true, we might have wronged the Japanese this time. But the disappearance of Dr. Yano tells us that this matter is not that simple. I think it is better to be cautious. When Li Yunlong and the college student come back tomorrow, we can discuss this matter in detail." Ding Wei suggested cautiously.
Kong Jie did not remain silent as usual, and immediately spoke: "No matter what role the Japanese played in this matter, we must think of the worst case scenario. Only in this way can we break the Japanese conspiracy! The information Xu Zhongyi received may not be true. It is very likely that it is a smokescreen deliberately released by the Japanese. It is better not to act rashly before the investigation is clear!"
