Chapter 271: Investigation
Zhang Kai paused as he spoke, and then hesitated slightly.
"It's just Zhao Ye, if we make a move in advance, if we want to completely swallow this group of Waimeng people, we must use all the heavy firepower we can use.
Otherwise, the casualties of the brothers will be enormous, and there will be many uncontrollable factors. ”
This means that if you don't use heavy firepower, and simply put together a small amount of camouflaged firepower, it is likely to overturn.
"But if we use heavy firepower, that.... Envoy Zhou's ....."
This is also a more embarrassing problem that Huo Zhongtun is facing now, that Zhou envoy is still there, once a lot of heavy firepower is used, what will the other party think?
At that time, Zhao Ming's overall deployment is only afraid that it will all have to be disrupted.
"Heavy firepower must be used, since it is to completely swallow the Outer Mongolians, then all the hole cards must be brought out.
The lion fights the rabbit still needs all our strength, and we can't be careless! ”
Saying that, Zhao Ming then asked, "By the way, how is the training situation of each battalion now?" ”
"It's just like that for a week, but I can barely take it out and fight a dozen, and I have a certain amount of combat effectiveness." Zhang Kai responded in a deep voice.
"Then tomorrow at night, launch a general attack, as for the relevant deployment.... Staff Officer Zhang, then you and I will work overtime, and we will first formulate a rough siege plan, and when the details are about to be battled, we will adapt to the situation.
In addition, we will start to strengthen the vigilance around tonight, so that we don't get rid of the nest in advance by the Outer Mongolians before we start. ”
Zhao Ming showed a resolute side in this regard, because they have been preparing for this battle, and they have strong confidence in this battle.
It is true that there is no comparison in terms of numbers, but if you only look at the number of people in a war, then there is no need to fight all wars.
With so much heavy firepower, his morale is still extremely high, and Zhao Ming really can't imagine the possibility of defeat.
"Yes!"
The voices of all the people rang out in the room, and they all stood up and saluted, a rare sign of regularity in the barracks.
As everyone left the room in turn, soon only Zhao Ming and Zhang Kai were left in the room.
"Master Zhao, having said that, what should be done with that envoy Zhou? Why don't I let someone get him drunk one day? ”
"Drunk? No, I'll be able to let him go tomorrow morning! ”
Zhao Ming chuckled and shook his head, in the past few days, he had been silently observing that Major Zhou.
The full set of scripts was written by Zhao Ming overnight as early as the night when the other party first came.
Then this whole set of scripts was dispersed into multiple pieces of information, and people spread them to some NPCs designated by him.
False information, if you tell the other party directly, it is definitely fake, but if the other party has worked hard to sort it out, it will definitely feel true.
What you can't get is always in turmoil.
At the same time, in a certain room in Huo Zhongtun, this is not much better than other rooms, the room is not big, only a bed and a shoddy desk.
But Zhou Yude knew very well that this was already the best room here.
The bigger the room here, the more people share it, which Zhou Yude has already inquired about after wandering around every day in the past few days.
At this time, in addition to him, there were several soldiers in the room who looked very clever, and they were all Zhou Yude's henchmen.
"Sir, you've made all the inquiries you want us to inquire about, and I'm in charge of the intelligence acquisition of the logistics and warehousing sector.
I have asked many people, and they all say that there is an abundance of food now, and there is no need to worry about food at all.
And if I ask too much, they will be very wary and ask me who I am and how I can ask about it.
Luckily, I found an excuse to go fast.
But how can I hide it, I sneaked in at night, and their granaries can fucking run mice.
The total does not add up to more than 1,000 stone meters. ”
Listening to his henchman's report, Zhou Yude frowned.
"Then how do they solve the problem of eating and drinking for tens of thousands of people?"
"It's simple, didn't you notice, we've been eating meat here every day lately? It's all beef and mutton.
The captives ate the same as us, and they were all porridge made by chopping up beef and mutton.
Meat is actually quite able to replenish strength, and they also use those mutton fat butter, this meat porridge has a lot of oil and water, and it is natural that you will not be hungry when you eat it. ”
The henchman talked eloquently and then said mysteriously, "And I also inquired, I heard that they seem to send people to dig some of those wild vegetables often."
They put wild vegetables and meat porridge and leftover rice and noodles in a ratio of 5:4:1, which greatly reduced the loss of food. ”
"Wild vegetables? There are also wild vegetables in the grasslands? Zhou Yude was surprised, there were really not many of him on the grassland, and he didn't know.
"Of course, there are wild vegetables, such as some koji hemp and bitter vein, which are found near the forests in the distance, but according to their way of eating.
And the number of them, it is estimated that they can't withstand many wild vegetables.
Even if there are many cattle and sheep in the camp, it is estimated that there will be no food to eat for more than half a month. ”
Hearing this, Zhou Yude nodded at the henchman with satisfaction.
Immediately looked at the other henchman, "What about you?" ”
"Sir, you asked me to investigate the mine, and I went for a few days to inquire about the situation.
There is indeed an open-pit mine here, and many of their prisoners of war work here on a daily basis.
Now the hoarding of coal mines is almost 100 tons, and this is still a situation where no equipment has entered the site.
If there is mining equipment, I estimate that this output will have to roll upwards, and there are indeed a large number of coal mines here. ”
"Well, is there any more detailed information?"
Zhou Yude continued to ask, in fact, he didn't need to inquire about this information, he took a look at it casually in the past few days and knew that a large number of people were working at the foot of the mountain every day to open mines.
"I heard that there seems to be a businessman here before, it seems that Chief Zhao has cooperated with that businessman, and now the businessman also wants to get involved, so I guess I will go back to raise money." The henchman pondered.
"So, this Zhao Ming is here in Chabei for money?" Zhou Yude was a little puzzled.
It's okay if you don't check it, why is it all about the other party's money?
"Maybe people are just for money."
Seeing Zhou Yude speak, his henchmen also nodded.
"And I also heard that the herders and soldiers in the camp were actually a little dissatisfied with the prisoners, because there was not enough food in the camp, thinking that it was a waste of food.
I asked them why they didn't cut the rations of these captives, sir, guess what they said?\"
"Less nonsense, straight to the point! Zhou Yude scolded.
"Oops!" The henchmen were bored, and hurriedly said, "They said that Chief Zhao is still waiting for them to work, but they can't spoil these captives." ”
Hearing this answer, Zhou Yude nodded not strangely.
From the information sorted out earlier, it is not difficult to guess that this Zhao Ming is going to do it with the idea of letting the captives work for nothing with empty gloves and white wolves.
"But wouldn't it be too easy?"
Zhou Yude rubbed his chin, always feeling that this information was too simple and straightforward.
Since the other party is just seeking money, there is no need to be so secretive, and those who don't know think that this person has any crooked thoughts.
And there is still one thing that I don't understand, how did this Zhao Ming beat the Outer Mongolians one after another?
