For a moment, Li Meng couldn't decide whether to send troops to receive or let those dozens of puppet troops maintain the status quo, it was obvious that Yun Xiaofang and Tang Mingyue hoped to take over the county seat of Weixian.

Yun Xiaofang persuaded: "Commander, our Dalu New Army has not occupied a county town for so long, and the reason why the enemy has abandoned it shows that their strength is weak, and the encirclement and suppression that have been brewing have not appeared to prove this point. From the time we planned to resist the enemy to the present, only in front of us, there are not 10,000 people sacrificed, five or six thousand people will definitely not be less, sacrificing a few hundred people for the county seat of Weixian is nothing, if you want to take the lives of the soldiers, it depends on whether they have the life to fight, we are not slaughtered by others, our mines, guns in our hands are not frightening artillery battles, burning sticks. ”

Although Tang Mingyue didn't say anything, the meaning was obvious, they wanted to take Weixian into their pockets.

Well, Li Meng finally made up his mind to take over Weixian, and at the same time, he had to be ready for the enemy's counterattack at all times.

The special operations battalion first entered Weixian to control various commanding heights and key positions, and the propaganda team and the first regiment of the First Army marched into Weixian in full gear, and carried out propaganda in the county town to control the dozens of old, weak, sick, and disabled puppet troops, and at the same time several units of the First Army controlled several roads into Weixian, and once the enemy appeared, they could immediately intercept them, and they could at least buy two or three hours for the county town and the surrounding troops.

It is not so easy to take over a county seat, and the common people have to eat, drink, and maintain order, which has created a difficult problem for the Dalu New Army, and problems continue to appear: public security, food, vegetables, sanitation, commerce, Even weddings and funerals have to be taken into account, Yun Xiaofang's first army and the first regiment of the first army arrived in the county seat to know how troublesome these things are, Li Meng simply let the students and teachers above the middle school level in Weixian County all use it to enrich the various departments of the county, students implement part-time work and study, this time there are manpower, most of these students and teachers are locals in Weixian, Li Meng's initiative suddenly made Weixian a new look, and also mobilized the enthusiasm of Weixian people, these students and teachers are mostly children of Weixian people, and it is impossible for them not to support it.

Yun Xiaofang used Li Mengjiao's method to say "high" again and again, and this time there were five or six hundred more capable subordinates.

Tang Mingyue saw it and was immediately envious.

"Commander Li, or we take Zao County down?"

However, the city wall of Zaoxian County is much more solid than that of Weixian, and besides, Zaoxian County is much larger than that of Weixian, according to intelligence, in recent times, the enemy has not only reopened the coal mines in Zaoxian, but also strengthened the city defense of Zaoxian.

The monitor of Li Meng's ambush was not in vain, and the enemy had put a squadron of mutants in the Zaoxian coal mine, as well as a battalion of puppet troops, which was a hard bone.

"Commander Tang, I'll show you something. ”

Li Meng was startled when he showed the monitor to Tang Mingyue, what is this, although Tang Mingyue's intelligence officers knew that the Zaoxian Coal Mine had strengthened its defense, but such a clear and detailed firepower arrangement made him stunned.

Li Meng said: "Zaoxian coal mine to take down a bit of a difficulty, must use a large army, if the use of a large force will inevitably increase the risk, ammunition loss is also large, now we and the enemy the decisive battle has not yet come, my opinion is to cannibalize the enemy, every day to destroy ten to twenty enemies, a month is enough to consume them, a month later we will see the enemy's reaction." ”

Tang Mingyue immediately agreed to Li Meng's plan, Commander Li meant to put cold guns and special operations to avoid being targeted by the enemy's aircraft and tanks, this kind of combat plan is also indispensable, as long as it can hit the enemy, the method can be effective.

Tang Mingyue began to organize people according to Li Meng's requirements, Li Meng's arrangement was also to train the team, how to hit the enemy, how to cover, how to retreat, special operations are not so simple, Li Meng taught them a long time ago, but unfortunately they were attacked by the enemy's plague before they could be used.

On the first day of the winter month, the county seat of Weixian County was already in order, the policemen patrolling the streets were all new clothes, all the little fresh meat, a motor sound in the sky flew from far and near, the men, women and children of Weixian County were stunned for a moment, they didn't know what was flying in the sky, a student policeman seemed to remember something and shouted: "Plane! Enemy air attack, get out of the street!"

Half an hour later, the county seat of Weixian County was in shambles, and the mutants of the Black Moon Country used a total of three planes in this air raid, causing more than 100 deaths and injuries, more than 30 houses were damaged, and losses amounted to tens of thousands of silver dollars.

Yun Xiaofang blamed himself for a while, he is now not only the commander of the First Army, but also the temporary county magistrate of Weixian.

"Commander Li reminded me to pay attention to the enemy's air raids, but I was still careless and was not prepared for the enemy's air raids, which was my fault. ”

Li Meng's face was also ugly, this can't be completely blamed on Yun Xiaofang, this is just three planes, they haven't seen the horror of indiscriminate coverage bombing, this requires one or two hundred planes to bomb together, they don't even have a chance to rescue, Weixian is a small county town after all, and the enemy has to calculate the gains and losses when they bomb here.

"Try to move the important industries in the city to the countryside, we now have no air defense weapons, only the share of bombing, and the enemy knows more or less what the valuable targets in the county town are? The cost of aircraft bombing is very high, and this one take-off and landing is a few tons of fuel, as well as bombs, and it is not cost-effective to bomb ordinary targets. ”

Although Li Meng said this, human life is priceless, and after all, it is the fathers and villagers of Weixian who suffer a lot, which is why Li Meng was very hesitant to occupy Weixian at the beginning.

There are no anti-aircraft weapons, and the most important thing is the lack of skilled workers and technicians, although Li Meng's machinery factory in Xiaodong Island is operating, and it has also begun to imitate pistols and machine guns, but bullets and grenades are the most urgent to produce, and this kind of thing is too expensive.

To build an anti-aircraft machine gun, at least 20 mm caliber, otherwise it will be bombed all the time, can't wait, the situation forces Li Meng to move forward, but Li Meng still needs a lot of things: special steel, skilled workers, especially technicians, chemical talents, in short, people are the most important.

Fortunately, there is a county seat, Li Meng plans to build a machine factory in Weixian near Weihu, there are too many raw materials needed to build anti-aircraft guns, and everything needs to be transported into Weihu in the depths of Xiaodong Island, although it is inconvenient after all, although it is very safe.

The first factory in Weixian County is so settled, located on the edge of Weihu Lake, on the outskirts of Weixian, and recruits people first.

Yun Xiaofang and Tang Mingyue were immediately excited when they heard that Li Meng was going to build an anti-aircraft machine gun, and their spirits were higher than Li Meng's.

"Commander Li, what do you need? ”

"It's nothing, first call 500 literate young people, the more literate the better, 200 tons of steel, 1,000 tons of coke, 200 quintals of cotton, the more copper, the better, and 20 tons of alkaline surface......"

Li Meng said that their faces were sallow, obviously these are more difficult than occupying a county town, they can only take their time, and if they don't have 200 tons of steel, they can come 20 tons first.

If you don't have 500 literate young people, you can come to 100 first, which shouldn't be difficult.

Carry the weight and overcome the obstacles.
