Chapter 66 The Population Question
"Why is there another artillery?" I asked, a little confused.
"Cannons are just what you call them, we don't call them that."
"What are the artillery, and what category do mortars belong to?"
"Modern artillery is divided into ground suppression artillery, anti-aircraft guns, anti-tank artillery, tank guns, aviation machine guns, naval guns, coastal guns and fortress guns according to their use, and mortars belong to ground suppression artillery."
"Is the mortar easy to operate?"
"Mortars are used at the infantry battalion level, and one mortar is operated by five people, three gunners are responsible for aiming, two second gunners are responsible for loading shells, and a gun commander is responsible for directing the firing." Sun Xiaolong narrated the operation of the mortar.
"That means a 60-millimeter small-caliber mortar, I thought about it going off, and at least six people were going to serve it?" I was a little speechless.
"That's pretty much it!"
I was depressed. I don't even have a fucking number of people in a whole formation, and where do I get so many people to operate mortars.
"It seems that there is still a shortage of manpower!" I said in distress.
Sun Xiaolong seemed to see my troubles and said, "Aren't we recruiting dozens of people again?" We can ......."
"No! I'm not going to recruit these people, these people are too selfish. I interrupted Xiao Long.
I didn't think much about these ungrateful and selfish guys, and I didn't want to be betrayed by them in the future.
"Oops! I said that you two are just salty and eat radishes and worry about it, and after the thick words of the operation, our main task now is to snatch those mortars back, even if no one uses them in the warehouse, I am happy to watch the fat man. "The fat man doesn't know when he bought it.
Yes! Getting it in my hands was the first priority, and I gave myself a slap in the face and looked at the man on the ground with cold eyes.
The man's body couldn't help but tremble again when he saw my cold eyes, and he gritted his teeth and said the location of the mortar very wisely.
The little girl was rescued from the cabin, the chains around her neck were removed, the stains on her body were wiped clean, and the scars on her chest, back, and thighs were exposed to the air.
The two female logistics officers of the base used anti-inflammatory water to clean the little girl's wounds with tears, and as the gauze covered her wounds, the muscles on her body were trembling slightly, but her face still maintained that stiff smile, and there was no other expression, as if she was afraid of something.
As if the painfully trembling body wasn't her own, she turned her head to look at the bonfire that had just risen, and the hollow eyes on her stiff smiling face didn't know what she was thinking.
The two female logisticians looked at the little girl and cried even more, this is what happened to women in the end of the Dark Ages, they can only be humiliated without strength.
I threw the cigarette butt in my hand on the ground and stepped on it, with sadness on my face. "This fucking dark age!"
"Boss Hu! I've cleaned up the battlefield and counted the number of people and supplies! Wang Youcai looked at me who was not in a good mood and said carefully.
"Hmm!" I nodded and didn't continue to speak, Wang Youcai could only continue to report.
"There are a total of seventy-two grandchildren in the chicken farm, including fifty-eight men and only fourteen women, and they fought with us, killing fourteen people, injuring six, and seriously injured, all of them were men, Boss Hu, do you see if these seriously injured are ????"
Wang Youcai made a motion to wipe his neck halfway through speaking, Wang Youcai considered that the base does not have a lot of drug reserves, and there are not many surgical instruments, but there is one, and it is Chen Xing who presides over the infirmary, although she is a good doctor, but who calls these injured people not their own people.
The current medical equipment and medicines are not good, and if you use them for others, you have to use them less, and Wang Youcai also encouraged me to kill those who were seriously injured for the sake of the base.
I shook my head without thinking about it, I looked at the wounded in the distance and said, "Let's treat it how it should be treated, if you survive it, you will live, if you can't survive it, you will die, even if they are not a thing, they can't die in our hands, don't let those people chill, besides, we urgently need manpower." ”
I raised my chin and said to Wang Youcai to the wounded, who nodded and continued to report other matters.
Looking at the busy crowd in front of me, I was thinking about today's arrangement, the artillery still has to be found, but this time I have to be more careful, it is better to bring more people, and the other thing is about the expansion of the combat team.
As the population of the base increases, various problems will arise, for example, I can't get a mortar squad that I want to start now, which is unacceptable to me.
I was thinking about things and walking for a while, and when I looked up, I saw two team members with guns running towards me. I was slightly stunned, and only after a closer look did I recognize these two as my guards, Uncle Zhuang and Tiezhu.
The two of them ran up to me and gave me a military salute, and followed my ass without speaking, I was a little speechless, to be honest, I was really not used to the two asses following me.
I frowned and turned around and said, "You two don't always follow me, okay?" Who called you here? ”
Old Uncle Zhuang was a coward, he shrunk his neck and didn't dare to speak, but Tie Zhu was not afraid at all and said loudly: "Report!" It was Instructor Liu who asked us to follow you, and he said that you are the supreme commander of the base, and there must be someone around you to protect you. ”
"I have hands and feet and I don't need your protection, so you can do whatever you want."
"But sir......"
"It's nothing, get out of here!" I impatiently interrupted the words of the iron pillar.
Tie Zhu and Uncle Zhuang looked at each other helplessly, saluted me again, and turned to leave.
"Come back!" The two of them had just taken a few steps before I called them back again, and the two of them, who couldn't figure out the situation, looked at me later.
"In addition to Hongxi Village, are there any other villages around Beiliang Village?"
"Yes, sir! We have a total of five villages here, the closest to us is Donghua Village, then Nanqi Village, and Pingshu Village. "Uncle Zhuang answered my question very smoothly this time.
"Do you think there will be survivors in these villages?"
"There will be a duel!" Tiezhu affirmed.
"How do you know?" I looked at the iron pillar.
Tie Zhu's face flushed with some nervousness, and he said, "I... We... There are people in Hongxi Village who survived, and others... It is impossible for other small villages to be without, isn't Beiliang Village it? ”
I lowered my head and thought about it, I understand the meaning of the iron pillar, the population density of Hongxi Village and Beiliang Village is not very large, which means that there are not many zombies, and there are not many zombies, so it is normal for some survivors to survive, and the other three villages should be roughly the same as Hongxi Village and Beiliang Village, so there must be survivors.
"Wang Youcai! Wang Youcai gave me the map of the outskirts of City D. I shouted into the clearing in the distance.
Wang Youcai, who was sweating profusely, immediately emerged from among the survivors in the clearing, and he was asking about the survivors' strengths.
"Okay! Boss Hu, I'll bring it to you. ”
The map was taken, and the fat man, Liu Jianguo, and Sun Xiaolong were also found by me.
Liu Jianguo wrinkled his brows and said: "It is not difficult for Hu Pai to find out the survivors in these three villages, this is the housekeeping ability of our scouts, but it is difficult to say whether they are willing to contact us, you know the way of the world now." ”
"If you don't contact us, we will directly pull them out, I still don't believe it fat man, they still don't obey if they have a gun in hand."
"No! That will only make things worse! Liu Jianguo immediately objected.
"So what do you say?" The fat man dissatisfied.
"Maybe we can trade them with grain and make them work for us." Sun Xiaolong proposed.
Sun Xiaolong's proposal was not approved, because the example of the chicken farm was right in front of him.
While everyone was racking their brains to find a way, I raised my head and looked at Wang Youcai, the only one who didn't speak, "Wang Youcai, do you have any way?" ”
Wang Youcai first glanced at a few people and said with some hesitation: "Yes, yes, but if I say it, don't spray me." ”
"Then you just say it first, as long as what you say makes sense, we won't spray you!" The fat man said impatiently.
Wang Youcai's eyes rolled and said, "We all have a question, who are we?" ”
Several people present were stunned by Wang Youcai's question, and looked at him puzzled.
The fat man scolded directly: "Who are we? We are all your uncle! Speak briskly! ”
Wang Youcai wiped off the saliva that was touched by the fat man and said, "Boss Wang, don't you want to be like this?" Are you thinking about who we really are? ”
The fat man's temper really broke out this time, he stood up and grabbed Wang Youcai's neck and was about to do it.
Suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed in my head, and I grabbed the fat man to look at Wang Youcai and said, "We are from the army!" ”
Wang Youcai nodded and broke free of the fat man's hand and smiled: "That's right!" Are we the army people, the army is the savior of the survivors, we just have to pretend to swagger through their villages, and don't believe that they don't come out to contact us. ”
"Old paste! When did we become members of the army? The fat man wondered.
I didn't pay attention to the fat man, but muttered for a while: "It's easy to pretend to be an army, but what if the survivors find out that we are fake?" ”
"If you find it, you will find it! What we want is for them to come out and contact us, as long as they come out, everything will be easy, we don't just have beams, we also have guns! Wang Youcai deliberately emphasized this sentence.
I understand what Wang Youcai means, it is nothing more than beating a stick first, and then giving a sweet date, a typical combination of grace and power, his method is very yin, but I have to admit that this is the fastest way to increase manpower at present.
"That's it! Do you have any better ideas? I looked at the few people present, and they were silent.
"Then the matter is settled, Wang Youcai, you go and prepare relevant things!" Wang Youcai stood up and nodded.
