Liang Jian: Lao Li, I'm really not a military expert

Chapter 597 If you really give me an army of 1, I have the confidence to fight all the way to the No

After Lin Zhenhua said this, everyone felt that the food crisis was not that scary. If they really did what Lin Zhenhua said, it was very likely that the food crisis would be eliminated. This made everyone's expressions look better. They looked at Lin Zhenhua with bright eyes, wanting to hear what tricks he would use to deal with other crises next?

Lin Zhenhua scooped a bowl of mung bean soup from the bucket beside him, drank two bowls in a row, put down the bowl, wiped the water stains from the corners of his mouth, and continued: "The second crisis facing our base is the air defense crisis. After fighting a war of attrition with the devils for such a long time, we still couldn't intercept the devil's fighter planes. Fortunately, most of our anti-aircraft artillery groups have been built, and the rest will only take 3 to 5 days to complete. What we lack now is anti-aircraft weapons and artillery shells."

"In order to increase the production of anti-aircraft weapons, the production capacity of our arsenal has reached its limit. If we want to meet the current air defense needs, it is estimated that it will take at least half a month to produce enough anti-aircraft guns. As for artillery shells, we have stored a lot before, and we have produced some more in recent days, which are enough for the initial use. As long as we can stop the Japanese fighter planes outside the base, it will only take two months of production, and we will be able to reserve the number of artillery shells needed for air defense operations."

"As for fighter planes, we have indeed produced hundreds of them since we started the production capacity expansion plan, but most of them have been shot down by the Japanese in battle. Now we only have one transport plane brigade left to help us transport biscuits and canned food to make up for the shortage of food in the base."

"There's really nothing much to say about this. What we can do now is to accumulate more fighter planes and restore the strength of the air force battalion as soon as possible. This will take a lot of time. I estimate that it will take another half a month before our air force battalion can go into battle again."

"The Japanese air force has suffered heavy losses in the war of attrition with us. It is impossible for us to engage in large-scale air combat in the short term. I estimate that when we have recovered, we will have another decisive battle with the Japanese. However, the location of the decisive battle will be in Gu County. Whether there will be any new developments in the situation by then, we can only wait and see!"

"The third is the fuel crisis. This crisis must be resolved quickly, otherwise our fighter planes will become useless. Fortunately, after a long period of investigation, I have discovered a small oil field in our base. Ten days ago, I secretly ordered the arsenal to start producing mining and refining equipment. It is expected that the production will be completed in another ten days, and we can start smelting the mined oil in half a month."

"Five days ago, our third semi-automatic cylinder production line has begun to switch to diesel engine production, and we have started the engine reserve work in advance. In the future, our trucks, tractors, armored vehicles, and tanks will all use diesel engines. However, for the sake of confidentiality, I have not told anyone about this. Today, I would like to take this opportunity to tell everyone the good news!"

"As for the production of three-wheeled motorcycles and synthetic gasoline equipment, instead of decreasing, they will continue to increase. Our demand for fuel is endless. I plan to reorganize all our troops into mechanized troops to enhance their combat effectiveness!"

"In the previous battles with the Japanese, our engineering company had no tools to deal with the obstacles set by the Japanese. They could only stare blankly and had no choice but to sacrifice their lives. This kind of thing must never happen again. I have started the development plan of engineering equipment. It is expected that in ten days, bulldozers, road rollers, excavators, mine sweepers, tow trucks, and bridge-laying trucks will be fully put into production to enhance the strength of our engineers!"

"In the future, our demand for vehicles will only grow. If we equip 50,000 people with vehicles, we will need nearly 10,000 vehicles of various types. The arsenal must expand production in the second and third phases. Otherwise, it will not be able to meet our future needs!"

"As for the fourth crisis, the shortage of troops, it is actually the easiest to solve. In the future, the population of our base will reach 300 million. It will be very easy to expand the troops to . Even if we really want to expand now, we can still expand to ."

"Don't think I'm trying to drain the pond to catch fish. What I said is indeed the truth. The reason is actually very simple. Because we have built two new tractor factories, tractors can be used not only for farming, but also for harvesting, which can greatly reduce the use of manpower. I have a large-scale promotion plan for tractors. I plan to produce 600 tractors within two years for agricultural production and transportation."

"As for the last thing I want to talk about, it is the ammunition shortage crisis. This is the most difficult to solve. The only way is to expand the production of the arsenal, and we need to train a large number of workers. It is impossible to solve the problem within three to five days. I estimate that it will take at least three to five months, or even longer, because we have to re-equip again, and by then we will have more weapons, which will bring greater production pressure to the arsenal."

"At the same time, this also brings huge troubles to our logistics. In terms of logistics support, we must establish a complete system, otherwise we will be in chaos. Our base is very short of talents now. When we attacked Taiyuan City last time, we recruited more than a dozen students. I decided to let them serve as teachers and establish a preliminary education system to solve our talent shortage dilemma."

"Finally, let me say something about my opinion on the Shuiquan Oilfield. Whether we attack it sooner or later, we must attack it at all costs. The small oilfield we have found now cannot meet our future fuel needs. Only by occupying the Shuiquan Oilfield can our fuel crisis be temporarily resolved."

"As our aircraft, tanks and vehicles increase, the demand for fuel will only grow. If we don't find a way to find fuel, within a few months, our aircraft and tanks will be grounded again, and we won't even have a firewood stick to use."

"For this purpose, I have formulated a very bold counterattack plan. We will take over the entire Shanxi Province within 1 to 2 years, then fight northwards all the way to the northeast, kill the Japanese Kwantung Army, seize the Japanese industrial base, and then fight southwards until all the Japanese are wiped out!"

"According to my plan, by the end of next year, the army needs to be expanded to 12 and fully equipped with mechanized equipment. It will definitely be able to wipe out the th Army of the Japanese in a very short time. This plan seems a bit delusional, but if we don't even dare to think about it, there will be no possibility of success. As for small counties like Ping'an County, I don't take them seriously now. Our real goal is a strong city like Taiyuan City!"

Lin Zhenhua's final plan was very encouraging. Even Li Yunlong grinned when he heard it. He continued with a smile on his face: "College student, you always said that I like to brag, but I didn't expect that you are much better at bragging than me. But most of your bragging has come true. I am very optimistic about your plan. If our troops can be expanded to 100,000, I am really confident that I can fight back to the Northeast and definitely wipe out all the damn Kwantung Army!"

"But for now we still have to be down-to-earth and not be too ambitious. Expanding the base to Wangjia Town is indeed too conservative. I suggest expanding it directly to Niujiagou. This way, we will be fine and have more than 60 acres of land. When we build fortifications, it will form a closed loop and greatly reduce the amount of work. The most important thing is that we also have buffer space, so we don't have to be like the Japanese now, who will come to our doorstep at once. The threat to us is too great!"

Zhao Gang rolled his eyes in annoyance and stood up to refute directly: "Old Li, we only have more than 10,000 people now. You have occupied such a large area, and we simply don't have that much manpower to defend it. I think you should listen to the college students honestly. Let's take it slow. After all, you can't eat hot tofu in a hurry. Before our strength is restored, it is better to be safe."

Ding Wei stood up to express his support and said, "Old Li, stop talking so much. Given our current situation, we only have a few soldiers including the wounded. If we exclude the wounded, there are only a few who can really fight. It is impossible to defend such a large territory."

"We can only eat one bowl of rice per meal now, but you, Li Yunlong, insist on eating three bowls. You will be stuffed to death. Even if you don't die, you will probably suffer from indigestion. Old Ding can't do such a stupid thing! Not to mention that we have to resettle a large number of disaster victims. We will be very busy in the future and have no time to expand the base. We should be down-to-earth step by step as Lao Zhao said, and never aim too high, otherwise we will soon fall flat on our face!"

Kong Jie was not polite this time. He pointed at Li Yunlong's nose and cursed: "Li Yunlong, you son of a bitch, can't you just be quiet for a while? Millions of disaster victims will soon come to our base. We have to solve their food and accommodation problems quickly. We need to expand the housing alone. You should quickly follow the college students' orders and lead the troops to occupy Wangjia Town and Yujia Town so that we can use them to accommodate the disaster victims."

Li Yunlong was not so polite to Kong Jie. He retorted with disdain: "Kong Erleng, you actually taught me a lesson. This is really outrageous. Today I have to show you how powerful I am!"
