One hundred and sixty-seven pre-war preparations continued
On the one hand, in order to prevent a great confusion, it was difficult to tell the inhabitants of the barley fields that the Mexicans were about to attack on a large scale, and on the other hand, it was really difficult to get them to support us in moving their houses, so I decided to start from the periphery first.
I pointed to the map of the barley field and said, "So let's dig a deep trench around the community first." The ditch is required to be at least two meters wide and two meters deep. The excavated soil was piled up on the side of the barley field, except for some sandbags, and an earthen wall was built next to the houses. Hearing that the rioters might have mortars and other heavy weapons, Uncle Biao persuaded the owners of the houses of the security co-operatives who were on the periphery to agree to strengthen the roof with sandbags, and to put sandbags on the walls of the houses. The windows, in particular, were sealed with sandbags, leaving only a small opening that could be used as a shooting hole. So that we can guard against the heavy weapons of the mob. ”
Uncle Biao said, "I'll give it a try." ”
I continued: "The news is that there will be a lot of mobs harassing the barley fields, so the worst must be prepared. We need to choose a relatively high house as a support point. Outside these houses, we also use sandbags to put a circular wall two to three meters from the wall. In this way, even if the house is surrounded by mobs, it can continue to hold on. In addition, within the community, some streets are to be truncated with sandbag walls. ”
Bill asked, "As a barricade?" ”
I said, "It's not just a barricade. And seal off some places that we can't take care of. In case the mob rushes in, let them follow the route we have mapped out for them. That way we can block them more easily. ”
I marked more than 20 points on the map: "These places are going to be blocked." Make the wall higher. Then I pointed to the corners and intersections of the main streets: "These places should be barricaded. Occupy tall buildings near barricades as firepower points. ”
"There's no problem with that," Bill said. ”
I continued, "We didn't know which direction the mob would come from, so I decided to split our men into four teams. Marley, Billy, Bill, and Akon are each responsible for one direction. Big Eyes and I have a team in our hands as a mobile force to support all directions at any time. What do you think? ”
Uncle Biao said: "It seems that this is the only way. "The other four have no objections, so let's get to work, and the six of us will go and direct the sandbags to be loaded and stacked.
Supposedly, we have a lot of people and this should be done quickly, but this is not the case. Most of the Chinese who can live in the barley fields are middle-class people with good skills, and there are not many people engaged in manual labor, so it is considered very difficult for them to shovel soil and carry sandbags. Bill and I went to the north of the barley field to supervise the work, and when we saw someone shoveling the soil twice, the handle hurt and stopped, and some of them giggled like children. Just like that, it takes three minutes for a bag of dirt to be filled, so I don't know when I will be able to fill enough sandbags.
At this time, I can only set an example for everyone. I threw off my shirt and grabbed a shovel without gloves to fill it with a sandbag in three or five strokes, stepped on the dirt with my feet, added a spade of dirt, and carried the sandbag to a place under a commercial and residential building to prepare a wall. I carried five or six sandbags in a row, and everyone was embarrassed, and the movement sped up, although it was still not as fast as me, but the efficiency had been greatly improved.
As I continued to pack the sandbags, I said, "We've got word that someone is going to do something, and it's probably going to be big. This time it's really lucky, we got the information in advance, let's prepare early, if we really have the idea of beating the barley field, we can scare them away as soon as possible, and suffer less losses. ”
A young man held his pocket and laughed, "I wish those rotten boys would come to our barley field again." I didn't enjoy it last time, but I will make them look good when I come back. ”
I hurriedly asked, "Did you also participate in the battle last time?" What's your name? ”
The young man said, "My name is Chauvin." I also seized two guns last time. ”
A slightly chubby big man next to him laughed: "There is also a face to mention the last time." Chauvin, why don't you say that you don't even dare to show your head when the gun goes off, just stretch out your hand and shoot indiscriminately? Don't you have to look at the gun? ”
Sha Wen's face was flushed with shame, and he quickly retorted: "I was just a little scared at first, and then I wasn't so scared." If the rotten boy comes back this time, I will definitely kill a few of them. ”
I hurriedly played a round: "The first time I see someone shooting at me, there is definitely no one who is not afraid." But we have families and children behind us, and a responsible man will conquer fear. Last time, most of us experienced the battle for the first time, but we didn't let the rotten boy get cheap, and with the experience of the last time, I believe that we will be able to make them look good this time. ”
Hearing this, someone shouted, "That's it." Last time I only had a pistol, so it didn't work at all, but this time I bought an AK74. Rotten boy again, I'm going to kill on a killing spree. ”
Some people are worried, "Then the police will come and look for something wrong." ”
Someone immediately retorted: "If it weren't for someone eating inside and crawling outside, how could it attract the police." That guy deserves it. ”
Everyone, you and I were excited, and under my leadership, the movements unconsciously sped up a few points.
I called Nicole during a break, but it didn't get through. In the United States, where the country is sparsely populated like Texas, the infrastructure is not complete, and it is normal for some places to have no cell phone coverage. I had to send her a text message: "There is a big change, be careful, come back quickly!" ”
At two o'clock in the afternoon, Big Eyes came back with the convoy, and in addition to the weapons and ammunition he brought back, he also pulled a batch of steel horses, steel frames and steel plates. Mixed in with these things are a couple of cylinders, which are used to weld steel
of oxygen and acetylene. But how come there are still a few black cylinders? The cylinder is black, which means that it is filled with high-pressure nitrogen, and ordinary steel components do not need nitrogen protection for welding?
I grabbed the longbowman and asked him, "What are you doing with some nitrogen?" Misplaced? ”
Longbow pointed to a steel pipe on the car and smiled: "That's right, this is the big killer that I and Bogard did." ”
"The Big Killer?" I asked, "What kind of big killer uses nitrogen?" ”
The longbowman proudly said: "Gas projectile cannon!" Ordinary artillery uses gunpowder to fire shells, while gas projectile guns use high-pressure gas to fire shells. ”
I said, "You're so whimsical. ”
The longbowman lectured me in the teacher's tone: "This is not a fantasy. During the First World War, the Austrian army used this weapon in large quantities. ”
Oh, it seems that I'm lonely. However, Austria was a defeated country, which made me very uneasy. So I asked, "And how effective are the Austrian gas projectile guns?" ”
"The range may be shorter, but the firing is not obvious in sound and light characteristics, it is not easy to detect, and the barrel manufacturing requirements are low," said the longbowman. You see, we use a 76 . A 2mm steam pipe can be used as a cannon barrel to launch a five-kilogram shell from a distance of 300 meters. ”
Holding an M14 gun-family rifle with a scope, the blues said, "Raven, this is the M39 sniper rifle." The boar has taught you sniping techniques, and maybe you can experience it in actual combat this time. ”
After arranging the unloading of the truck, Big Eyes came over and said, "Let's hurry up and get the weapon." There have been shootouts on the streets between Mexicans demanding and opposing the U.S., and we've had several along the way. It is not known when there will be a full-scale conflict. ”
