After the battle of Xincheng and Township, of course, everyone went to receive all kinds of materials in the township happily.

But there are also people who have headaches.

At this time, Chen Yuan was listening to Zhang Fatzi's report on the consumption of this operation with a headache.

"Brother Chen, we are a bit big in this battle! 141,000 rounds of bullets were fired alone. Among them, 21,000 rounds of ammunition were consumed for 12.7 mm heavy machine guns, 46,000 rounds for 7.62 mm light machine gun/Type 56 assault rifles, and 62,000 rounds for 5.8 mm 95 assault rifles. ”

"Hmm...... Seems like a bit much! Chen Yuan sighed, there is really no way, in the face of the charge of the zombie group, if you want to save bullets, you can rely on the people to fill it, compared to human life is too expensive.

Zhang Fatzi said: "Actually, the bullets are okay, after all, we have a lot of inventory." In addition, the production line of bullets has been expanded to two, and the daily production capacity is also okay. The key is the shell! ”

He looked down at the statistics in his hand, and reported with a bitter face: "With the shells after reloading the gunpowder, we originally had 900 rounds of 122 mm caliber shells left, and today we fired 200 rounds, leaving 700 rounds." There were 2,500 mortar shells, 950 were fired today, and 1,650 remained. Of the 800 rounds of tank artillery shells, 230 were fired today, leaving 570 rounds. It can be said that today's battle alone has destroyed nearly a third of our artillery ammunition stockpile. There are still three towns left, and if you continue to fight like today, you won't be able to play anymore. ”

The fat man spread his hands and said, "Anyway, there are so many shells, you can do it yourself." We can't make our own shells yet. ”

"We don't have the technology to do that." Chen Yuan said very regretfully: "The main part is the warhead. Although Xu Lao and the others are experts in artillery and understand the principle, understanding the principle and the actual production are completely different things. Research from scratch is a bit slower, and so far the technology for making shells is not complete. ”

"Then why don't we find Qin Mengyao and Qin Mengxue, and ask if there is any ready-made technology for making cannonballs over there in the Black Wind Mouth Settlement?" Zhang Fatzi proposed.

"You can try it, we'll ask tonight. If you can give us the technology to make shells, of course it would be the best! Chen Yuan also agreed with Zhang Fatzi's proposal, but he also reminded: "In addition, people are no longer called the Heifengkou Settlement, but the Shenwuguan Settlement." ”

"Hehe, I forgot. They just changed it the day before yesterday, and they haven't gotten used to it yet. "Qin Mengxue basically contacted Chen Yuan and them every day, so they also knew about the name change of the Heifengkou settlement the day before yesterday.

Zhang Fatzi didn't think it was anything, so he didn't care about it, but it had a very different meaning for Chen Yuan.

In this life, because of the existence of Chen Yuan, the situation of Huaxia has been very different, and the black wind outlet has been preserved, and a traffic artery between the north and south of Huaxia has been preserved.

The effect of this may not be seen yet, because everyone is still only patronizing the zombies around their settlements.

But when the settlements stabilize in the future, the meaning will be completely different.

Because for the settlement to develop, it needs materials. Some supplies are not available in the north, but are available in the south. Some supplies are not available in the south, but are available in the north. Sea transportation is impossible, and the mutated creatures and zombie creatures in the sea are even more terrifying. Air transport is too expensive, it doesn't take much time for the flying corpses to fly higher and faster, and the transport plane is likely to be shot down without fighter escorts.

So the importance of the passage on this road is revealed.

The name change itself is also interesting.

Although the three major bases in the last Ji Province actually operated separately and could not lead the rest of the country's settlements, they still nominally continued to use the title of the previous government.

And in this life, according to the news that Chen Yuan got from Qin Mengxue, the three major bases plus the Black Wind Outlet Settlement have all been renamed one after another.

The 73141 extra-large secret base controlled by the Liu family and the Sima family was renamed Yanhuangcheng. The original super-large secret base No. 04192 controlled by the military and political forces was renamed Dadu. The super-large secret base No. 97531 controlled by the Wang family was renamed Yangcheng.

This Wang family is not the same as Wang Yue and Wang Cong's Lingchuan Wang family, but they have a deep relationship, so the relationship between Qin and the Wang family is still relatively good.

If there was no Chen Yuan, 97531 would have been jointly controlled by the Wang family and the Qin family. The three bases are each other's horns and contain each other. It's just that now the Qin family has moved to the Black Wind Outlet one step ahead. As a result, the three major bases have now become four major bases.

Yangcheng and Shenwuguan live together, because they were split by the previous 97531, and their strength has become the weakest of the four.

But this is only temporary, at least in Chen Yuan's opinion, the Wang family monopolizes the resources of a very large secret base, and without the constraints of other forces, the development of Yangcheng will be more rapid. And the future potential of Shenwu Guan is even more limitless. Of course, that's all for later.

And with the renaming of the four bases, it means that the last bit of influence of the previous government is gone.

Zhang Fatzi naturally didn't know that Chen Yuan had so many things in his mind, and he was still talking about artillery shell technology, he asked: "But the distance is so far, even if they are willing to give technology, there is no way to pass on the information, right?" ”

"It's a big deal to send a convoy to pick it up, it's not like I haven't walked it anyway."

"That's right, so why don't you ask them for a set of equipment for making shells? We can exchange supplies with them. When we get the equipment back, we can copy it ourselves, and we don't have to explore the equipment and technology for making shells. ”

"Well, last time Qin Mengxue said that they also lacked copper and gunpowder. I think so, I'll contact Meng Yao first later, and ask her to help arrange for me to talk to Old Man Qin on the phone and talk about these things. ”

Fat Zhang nodded, and then continued to ask: "What about the next 3 towns?" ”

Chen Yuan smiled bitterly: "It seems that we still underestimate the difficulty of some zombie groups, judging from the current situation, before the manufacturing technology and equipment of the cannonballs are in place, our artillery shell reserves can only support us to defeat two of the three towns at most." ”

"But we can't just ruin everything. Otherwise, if the zombies in the town are left to attack us with a sudden convulsion, we will be in trouble if we have no shells. So let's wait. Even if we don't have the technology to get artillery shells, we can wait until we develop them ourselves. ”

Zhang Fatzi nodded in approval, with Zhang Fatzi's slamming strength, no one was more distressed than him looking at the gradually empty shell warehouse.

Chen Yuan also continued: "Anyway, we have time. We had planned to complete the winter offensive by mid-April next year, before the start of spring. It's only the end of December, and there are still more than four months to go, which is more than enough time to hit three towns. In addition, two major battles have just been fought, and the troops will also have to rest for a while. Fill the vacancies of soldiers lost in each unit. In addition, I intend to increase the strength of one more field infantry battalion. (To be continued.)
