Chapter 203, Heading South (continued)
Chapter 203, Heading South (continued)
The road to the south was not a smooth road, along the way there were not only small warlords who came to find trouble on the orders of Lao Chiang, but also a number of remnants of the national army who were lost with the large army, and the extremely cold weather in the middle of winter, all of which brought a lot of trouble to Li Shunsheng's trip to the south this time.
Although the warlords and remnants are not very easy to deal with, they are still relatively easy to solve after all, but the severe cold of winter makes Li Shunsheng have no way to start, after all, he can't conjure up a large number of warm clothes out of thin air, even if he has already bought them from other places, it will take a lot of time.
Perhaps it was the heavens that had mercy on these miserable people, and after spending the first few days, the weather began to improve, and the warm sun dispelled the cold.
Although the temperature at night was still not high, there was no case of anyone freezing to death, which made Li Shunsheng, who had been holding his heart up, breathe a sigh of relief.
The further south you go, the smoother the trip becomes.
At this time, neither Lao Chiang nor the Japanese had any intention of caring about the whereabouts of a division in this area, and most of their sight and strength were concentrated in Changsha.
A big war is about to begin.
And when both sides were ready to go, the team led by Li Shunsheng finally arrived at the destination of the trip - Wuyi Mountain.
The choice to come to Wuyi Mountain was not a whim of Li Shunsheng, but he had already made a corresponding plan, but he came much earlier than planned.
"Master! You're finally here! The young lieutenant colonel who came running quickly was full of joy on his face.
"Well, you're all set, right?" Li Shunsheng also had an imperceptible smile on his face when he saw the visitor.
"The shelter and food have all been prepared for a long time, just waiting for everyone to arrive."
…………
"Zhao Wei, take me to see the progress of the project, the next place is our base, and the progress of the project must not be left behind." When everyone settled down, Li Shunsheng did not choose to rest, but quickly put himself into work.
"Yes, Master!" Zhao Wei said nervously and excitedly, this day has been what he has been looking forward to for a long time.
Li Shunsheng's base is located in a hidden valley where people come and go, and buildings of all kinds are lined up. Although the weather is cold, it is in full swing.
"To what extent has it been built now?" Although Li Shunsheng did not know the specific degree of construction of the base, he was still satisfied with everything in front of him.
"The infrastructure has been completed by three percent, and the first weapons production line has been assembled. However, the base does not have electricity and does not have enough resources, so we will not be able to produce our own weapons for the time being. Zhao Wei said with some regret, although it is hidden here, but the transportation is too troublesome, and many necessary materials need to be transported here It takes huge manpower and material resources.
"The infrastructure has to keep up, I hope to complete all the infrastructure within three months, as for the generator set is not a big problem, this money can be bought, but the resources have not been clued for so long? Didn't I remember that we hired specialists? Li Shunsheng frowned slightly, self-sufficiency without resources is just a joke.
"We have found a few ore veins, copper ore, iron ore, coal, and mines, although the mineral reserves are not very large, but they are enough for us to use for several years, but these ore veins are ownerless." Zhao Wei explained helplessly.
"Lord? Then grab it. Li Shunsheng said very calmly, since the previous troops were insufficient to take those ore veins, then now that the troops are sufficient, they can naturally do it.
"Yes!" Zhao Wei's face was full of joy, you must know that he has been greedy for those mineral veins for a long time.
"By the way, how much land have we cultivated now?"
"More than 5,000 acres have been reclaimed, and we will be able to plant seeds next year, and then we will be self-sufficient." When it comes to land, Zhao Wei, who was born as a farmer, is obviously very interested.
"Continue to cultivate, don't be afraid of the land. You can divide the reclaimed land among the people I have brought back, and we will not be able to feed those who eat for nothing. Li Shunsheng said lightly.
"Understood."
As they walked, the two of them specified the future direction of the base.
