881 Everything is getting better
Zhang Gou didn't know what his chief thought, and he didn't want to know what those damn big officials thought. What he knows now is himself. He was treading on the red path of blood, red, because of the explosion. All sorts of blood and pieces of meat that were fried. Stepping on it is like stepping on a rainy field.
"Tweet goo." Make such a sound.
"Gross." Zhang Gou is a recruit, and he really can't stand such a voice. For him, it was torture, and even more unbearable was the pungent smell of blood.
Zhang Gou was pushed to the ground by the soldiers behind him, many people kept advancing, they were all driven away, although they couldn't stand it, they were still driven away, and they would be back up again if they fell, they had to deal with such a situation. No one will sympathize with the timid and scared, and for the kind of guy who has a nervous breakdown, it is unlucky, because there are veterans behind to supervise the battle, and if they show some back, they will be disposed of.
Zhang Gou was covered in blood and pushed forward. Breakfast had already been vomited.
Along the trench, a group of soldiers slowly retreated, many of them, their legs weak, unable to walk fast if they wanted to. The constant blood stains falling from the sky are simply terrifying. Everyone looks red. The pungent smell of blood drove some soldiers crazy. Each of them had extremely mixed feelings, and they had just picked up a life from the explosion, but they saw blood all over their bodies. They stopped talking. This time it was too ruthless.
The corners of the old camel's mouth twitched constantly, he had seen countless tragic situations, even when he robbed the tomb, he did not feel afraid. But somehow, he felt angry and at the same time very scared. It's like a person who has drained his guts all at once.
"What's going on at the front?" Cao Cao woke up from his sleep. He didn't know what was going on, he always had intermittent headaches. I took some medicine casually and fell asleep. He hadn't had a good night's sleep in days. The situation is indeed favorable. They may occupy the fifth line of defense. As soon as he sleeps, he knows that their attack is also extremely advantageous.
Dong Zhuojun may not have enough ammunition. And their attacking numbers and experience have improved greatly, and in such a situation, what reason do they have to not rise to a higher point quickly. This is an extremely favourable situation.
"What's going on?" Cao Cao asked, Cao Ren. He looked dazed, and Xiahoudun didn't know very well.
Xi Zhicai went up and explained in a whisper, and then Cao Cao grabbed the binoculars and looked at it. Although some concrete circumstances are not yet visible, the dense fog from the explosion is not so simple as it can be dissolved. The huge explosion disintegrated one of the attacks of the Kwantung coalition forces in one fell swoop.
"Ugh." Cao Cao sighed helplessly. He knew that one of their attacks had been broken up in this way. After all, the other party came ruthlessly. The attack was more than two thousand people. When I came back, I estimated that he was in his early 100s, and most of them were killed. It may not even be possible to find the corpse. The tragic situation suppressed the soldiers of the Kwantung Coalition Army. They had never encountered such a brutal battle, and the way they fought with firearms was completely different from the wars they had been exposed to before.
Jingshi, Luoyang.
"Good. Very good. Well done, that's it, give them a little more. Let Yuan Shao Xiaoer see how to deal with it? Hahahaha. Dong Zhuo received the relevant battle report as soon as possible. The battle report has an overestimate of the enemy's troop losses, estimating that the opponent's losses of more than 5,000 troops, and this loss has reached a serious point. And such a loss will make the front line suddenly enter a relatively stable state, which has a great development for Dong Zhuo. Dong Zhuo was naturally happy. There is no better news than this good news.
Dong Zhuo walked back and forth excitedly, such good news seemed to make Dong Zhuo jump up to a high position.
But Li Dao doesn't think so, such a vicious trick. Probably not much, because he knows how much of a relevant ** they got from the IRA. Not only that, but he also knew that their ammunition reserves had been in a low state, and he could have improved their situation with the help of such a batch. But now it seems that it is no longer possible. They did it themselves.
In a short period of time, they really can't develop more effectively. But in the long run, they still can't change the situation of their declining power, and a tactical victory still can't fundamentally reverse the balance of power. Moreover, this practice of constantly reaping benefits from the Republican Army, and the Republican Army's continuous expansion of its own strength, is undoubtedly tantamount to drinking water to quench its thirst. But, what good way do you have, this is the case, if you can't accept it, there is really no good way to solve such a thing. It's really an extremely passive situation, a helpless move for everyone.
Next, how to solve the financial problem will become extremely critical. Li Wei had these things in his heart. A tactical victory for the front. He didn't care too much.
Within Luoyang City, the area of Dongcheng District has expanded again. Some areas outside the eastern city have been handed over to the IRA, as more people have entered, perhaps more than 120,000. Of these, half are old and weak. This is Dong Zhuo's conspiracy, because the old and weak can increase the burden on the Republican Army, rather than providing more young and middle-aged labor force to make his rapid development.
The one-eyed colonel looked at the planned construction of the camp on the outskirts and nodded. But they still have to do a good job of defense.
They pulled up three barbed wires. There are many, many more trenches. Outposts are also being built. It seems that it has become a big, big military camp there. But these facilities were not enough to deal with the attack of Dong Zhuo's army. How much combat power their militia has. The one-eyed colonel himself was well aware.
The militia is regaining its physical strength, and many of them have no combat experience and are not able to fight at all. Fighting bayonets can only be said to be better than nothing. Their slogans are not bad. But there was a fight.
Colonel One-Eyed is still disappointed in the militia, so the militia's biggest role is to appear to be defensive. Maintain order, but want to take the initiative, there is still a lot of things lacking.
However, Colonel One-Eyed was still prepared, he drew some backbones, and some good-looking young men formed an elite militia, and they dared to attack and fight. Courage is greater than their fighting skills. However, the number was still smaller, only a pitiful two thousand. There's nothing people can do about that. It seems that the task assigned by the superior cannot be completed at all. Colonel One-Eyed thought worriedly.
However, in the area of control, it is not without good news. There were several factories like handicrafts in it, and they originally only recruited about 500 people to work, but because there were so many people here, they recruited about 900 people, and there were many other small workshops that joined in, making winter clothes, shoes, and so on. They offer nearly 11,000 jobs.
More than half of them are women. In the future, there will be more factories like this, and with jobs, everything will be easier.
The food supply in the city was rationed. A lot of work. Those who do not work are at most in a state of food and clothing, but the work in the city is also very limited.
The arrival of these factories has solved some of these problems. They can do something like this, and that's going to be the best move for them.
Rationing tickets provided by the factory. Here, the republican yuan will not work for the time being. Because even if it is distributed, it will soon be inflated by the unreasonable black market. And rationing can effectively break this situation.
Many families are able to make ends meet. And if they have a job, they can develop quickly. They can eat a little. Exchange for some needed necessities. This is key for a family.
And their job is just to assemble, to assemble bullets, or to make some cloth bags, or boots and clothes or whatever, of course, these are some skills that can be learned.
Some factories obviously saw extremely cheap labor, but they couldn't provide a place to control it in a short period of time, so the best thing to do was to distribute some of the materials and let them make them at home. As long as they control the quality, they can expand a lot of production capacity.
Some of these practices are being promoted.
Colonel One-Eyed believed that with the entry of the factories and the restoration of some order in production, he believed that their situation would improve to a greater extent.
However, let them join the fight. It seems to be reluctant. Even they can't do it themselves. But there is no way, this is the order. They have to build up more power as soon as possible.
The situation is improving in the IRA-controlled areas, with more food coming in. People's lives began to be full of hope. Throughout the region, two schools were established. Children can learn there for free, but there are too few teachers. There are only three people, but three people have to teach knowledge to more than 10,000 children, and this pressure can be imagined.
Despite the much, many shortcomings, there is hope that people will not have to worry about hunger, that some will have jobs, that their children will be able to go to school, even though they will not be able to study in the best position. But they have the motivation to learn. Isn't everything getting better?
