Chapter 416: Celebration Banquet and Reorganization

The victory of the army to return to the dynasty is a great joy for the country, not to mention such a great victory in opening up the territory and expanding the territory, the whole country can not overcelebrate, and the imperial capital will not save money on this no matter how hard it picks the door.

In order to celebrate the victory of the war against Vietnam, the imperial capital allocated 200 million yuan to the Kuncheng City Government, so that it could make the celebration banquet beautiful, and by the way, let everyone have a happy year and step into 1985 together.

Those officials are not capable of doing other things, but Zhang Luo's eating, drinking, and merrymaking is definitely better than anyone else, and as soon as the money in the imperial capital arrives, it will be handled immediately.

The celebration banquet of 100,000 people is not a small job, and each table has at least 12 big dishes, plus cold dishes and wine, and the work has to keep people busy. In addition, there were local government officials who came to join in the fun, ordinary people who had participated in logistical work were also invited to participate, and there were also units that poured in from all over the country to give victory gifts to the army, and the number of people attending the banquet was gradually rising, and 500,000 people was a cautious number, and maybe there would be 700,000 or 800,000 people.

But no matter how many people come, you have to make sure that everyone eats and drinks well, and the visitors are guests, even if they are just visiting the door, they must be fed before they are allowed to leave!

Fortunately, the money given by the imperial capital is enough, and 200 million is enough for the Kuncheng City Government to operate it bigger, and the more people there are, the more lively the scene will be.

And it is still winter and the temperature is low, in order to let the soldiers eat well, the Kuncheng City Government collected the city's cauldrons and steamers, and if they were not enough, they had to be transported from other places quickly, and then set up earthen stoves everywhere to make steamed dishes. The Air Force airlifted chickens, ducks, cattle and sheep by transport planes, the fattest fresh fish in Dianchi Lake were all salvaged, a large number of housewives were called to be responsible for cutting meat and washing vegetables, and there was a special chef in charge of making the dishes.

Because there are too many people, hundreds of thousands of people huddle together to eat is definitely unrealistic, this can only be a flowing banquet, eat a batch and walk a group, after the soldiers are full of wine and food, the soldiers disperse by themselves, go to the city to watch a movie or watch a song and dance party, and the people behind follow to continue eating.

Even so, it took three days and two nights to eat day and night, which can be regarded as the largest flowing water banquet in Chinese history.

Spending 200 million yuan on eating, drinking and having fun, this is the first time since the founding of the People's Republic of China to spend such a large amount of money, TV stations across the country will certainly not miss such good material, reporters from all over the country gathered in Kuncheng, ready to share the joy with the people of the whole country through the camera.

In order to please the soldiers, the Kuncheng City Government did its best, and hundreds of stage teams from all over the country were invited to set up stages in various parts of the city.

Secondly, there is an open-air cinema, which is more trouble-free than the troupe, a projector and a screen. In this era, large color TVs are only popularized in first-tier cities, and mainland cities are basically dominated by black-and-white TVs, and the most important thing is that there are not many TV programs. In the past two years, as relations with Japan and the United States have warmed, TV stations have introduced a large number of translated Japanese and Hollywood programs, which has enriched the content of TV.

However, the people's favorite thing to watch is still movies, in order to take advantage of the scene, the Kuncheng city government also specially sent people to the magic capital to bring back the latest Hollywood blockbusters, including Schwarzenegger's "Terminator", and 007 movie "Octopus Girl" and so on, these are the best films of this era.

In order to ensure the effect, these blockbusters will only be screened in the cinema, especially the Terminator, which is really a sci-fi blockbuster, the visual impact on people in this era is unparalleled, especially for young people, the news of the movie screening came out, the soldiers all rushed over to watch, some people watched it two or three times and still didn't enjoy it, the crowd of people queuing outside the cinema couldn't see the end at a glance, just wait for a night and everyone was willing.

Of course, Chen Xu didn't have to wait, as a senior officer, he made way wherever he went, even if he didn't want to cut in line, but he couldn't stand everyone's enthusiasm, so he could only enter the venue in advance to see it.

The Terminator is very good-looking, except for the Chinese dubbing is a little weird, this classic movie is always tired of watching, being able to sit in the cinema and watch the latest American movies makes Chen Xu feel like he has returned to his previous life.

Being able to see the most popular Western movies in mainland cities shows the power of the country's reform and opening up.

The officers and men could eat, drink, dance, and party for a few days and nights, but the senior officers had to return to the garrison to start a new job after attending the banquet and watching the movie.

According to the instructions of the Central Military Commission, after returning to China, the 69th Army and the Banzai Army must immediately streamline their command system, and after the reorganization is completed, the whole army will be stationed in Aksai Chin.

The so-called streamlining of the command structure is actually a layoff of personnel; the 69 th Army has just been established, and its personnel structure is already in a run-in period, so it is not difficult to transfer personnel. However, it is difficult for the adjacent Long Live Army, the internal interests of the group army have been entangled like vines for decades, and even a typist can involve a large number of forces behind it.

However, after streamlining the organization, the two group armies were able to command smoothly and exert their maximum combat effectiveness, and it was not a good thing to fight a war in a bloated body.

After the streamlining and reorganization is completed, the troops will be immediately deployed to Aksai Chin.

The reason why it is so urgent is because Aksai Chin is located on a 4,000-meter plateau, and the soldiers must be stationed in advance to adapt to the local climate and environment, otherwise they will temporarily send the army up, and a altitude sickness can halve the combat effectiveness of the troops.

During the Tang Dynasty, the strong Tang army was never able to take the great trouble of Tibet, because the army could not stand it because of altitude sickness, so it could only maintain peace in a friendly way.

On the construction site of the military highway to Aksai Chin, there have been dozens of cases of workers working during the day and not waking up in bed at night, and in serious cases, two or three cases a day.

This kind of sudden death on the plateau greatly affects the morale of the army, especially the engineering soldiers who build roads, who need to carry out heavy physical labor during the day, which increases the body's demand for oxygen.

There was no good solution to this problem, and the Central Military Commission could only send people to conduct physical examinations of all the engineers and find out that they had heart and lung diseases and those who suffered from high blood pressure, and such people were not suitable for working on the plateau.

In addition, a large amount of rhodiola rosea soaked water is provided at the construction site to enhance the cardiovascular and cerebrovascular ability, and oxygen cylinders and glucose injection are prepared for emergency at any time. Then there is the fact that workers are not allowed to take a bath no matter how dirty they are, because after bathing, the blood vessels in the skin will dilate and congest, especially the head will be hypoxic, aggravating altitude sickness.

Secondly, when sleeping at night, each construction site will send a special person on duty, and every ten minutes or so, they will walk around the beds to inspect and check that the workers are breathing normally.

The workers also have their own tricks, they will put a small note on their nose when they sleep, and the note will rise and fall when they breathe to prove that they are still alive. As soon as the note stops, the person on duty will see it at a glance and immediately run over to administer first aid to the patient.

Not to mention, although sudden death is still unpreventable, with these preventive measures have prevented more than 40 dangerous situations, which is equivalent to saving the happiness of more than 40 families.

In order to open up the logistics arteries between the interior and Aksai Chin before the war, the Logistics Department of the Central Military Commission gathered all the country's construction machinery, and the number of temporarily recruited engineers has exceeded 1.3 million.

These engineers are actually local militiamen, and many of them are honest peasants who rely on farming to feed their families, and they are all heads of the family!

The attitude of the Central Military Commission towards them is the same as that of the regular army, and if there is a mistake, they will be punished, and if they have merit, they will be rewarded; in the days when the road was being built, hundreds of pages of names have been added to the merit book of the Central Military Commission, and there are more than 10 pages of first-class merit that is most difficult to obtain, and the Central Military Commission has never hesitated to reward these people who dare to sacrifice.

The 1.5 million infrastructure construction army can basically ensure that the entire highway will start construction at the same time, and the construction site leading to Aksai Chin is densely packed with workers, everyone builds bridges when encountering water, and digs holes in mountains, and has the strength to hollow out Mount Everest.

In just a few months, three simple two-way six-lane first-class highways in different directions have begun to take shape, and the road surface is paved with a thick layer of fine gravel, which can withstand the crushing of tanks and heavy trucks after testing, and these three major arteries can basically ensure the supply of supplies for the millions of troops stationed in Aksai Chin.

If it weren't for the Americans' money, I am afraid that none of them would be able to be repaired with the current national strength of the flower planters.

Such a road is not easy to build, of course, the engineers are careful and have already designed the road before it is built, and the road surface is first opened to traffic with gravel, and then asphalt is paved to upgrade it into a highway in the future. That's why six lanes in both directions were built in the first place, and if only four lanes of ordinary gravel roads were enough.

Emperor Du considered that in the future, after the Soviet army retreated and the flower planter ate the seven states in northeastern India, India would definitely rebound and try to recover the country, so our army must be heavily armed with Aksai Chin to maintain the overwhelming momentum of Mount Tai against India.

Therefore, it is very necessary to upgrade the three ordinary roads to expressways and keep the logistics smooth. After all, the speed of gravel road is limited after all, and the transportation capacity is much worse than that of asphalt pavement.

And after the highway is repaired, it will be many times easier to repair the railway next to it, and the construction machinery will be repaired along the highway all the way, and there is no need to rely on manpower to dig the road.

With sufficient supplies, our army will be able to maintain military normalcy in Aksai Chin. No matter how much Ah San jumps, every time he sends troops, he has to climb up and attack Aksai Chin above, not only is it difficult to transport materials, but also the soldiers will be exhausted, and our troops in Aksai Chin will be at ease, even if they tie their hands and kick them all down the mountain.

Of course, Ah San will also try to build a highway to Aksai Chin, but in the style of this country, it is estimated that this road will not be seen until more than ten years later.
