Chapter 453: The Entrepreneur's Progress
"Could you please keep your voice down? I just fell asleep for a while, and your loud voice is so loud that it might as well call all the wolves around here."
Zhang Haiguang was about to speak when Li Shaoyi got out of the car yawning.
Although the road was bumpy, the pillow was very comfortable and I had a good sleep.
But when Natasha came out, she moved her thighs somewhat awkwardly.
"Commander Li, has your command center moved here?"
Fan Xiliang said in disbelief that this place had just been taken down today, and a group of criminals had just been executed. Someone attacked our military camp at night, but Li Shaoyi's command center was actually pulled here.
"The command center must always follow the troops. If we stay in the rear, how can we know the situation at the front? What's more, Tang Guoping's army has already surpassed us."
Li Shaoyi said calmly that according to the original idea, Tang Guoping's army should be engaged first, after all, they were deeper into the desert, but the problem was that they had not found the main force of Rakshasa, so they could only continue to spread northward along the water source.
The Rakshasa army had already fled from the original raid site.
Although we have air force reconnaissance planes, the area of the grassland is too large, and your planes cannot stay in the sky 24 hours a day. When there are no aircraft reconnaissance at night, no one knows where these people will run to.
"These guys are so aggressive, they ran faster than our regular army along the way."
When passing by the camp of those merchants, Li Shaoyi was also sincerely impressed. Nowadays, as long as there is profit, these people will rush over without hesitation even if this is a battlefield where a war has just been fought.
"I just talked to a few merchants. Fortune and wealth are sought in danger. If we buy these cattle and sheep at local prices and bring them back to the mainland, we can make at least 80% to 90% profit. Our troops will be with us all the way, so they don't have to worry about being robbed by bandits. Isn't this a big profit?"
Zhang Haiguang said with some envy, "Ordinarily, the logistics officers and soldiers should pull these things back, but the problem is that we are rushing too fast now, and the logistics departments have not kept up at all. Compared with these businessmen, our logistics departments are still a little slow."
"That's the money they deserve. I saw how they rushed along the way. They didn't even take a break when we were taking a break. It was almost like they didn't stop until they changed jobs."
Ma Leizi said with great admiration, no wonder they can make a lot of money.
"Reporting to the division commander, the communications department of the Luosha Far East Military Region has just issued a press release stating that we have violated the peace agreement we signed. The Far East Military Region will mobilize at least three infantry divisions to fight in the Outer Xiongnu, striving to annihilate us completely."
Li Shaoyi hadn't even had time to sit down when Natasha arrived with a new telegram. This time, the Russians finally took them seriously. Together with the troops that had entered the Outer Xiongnu before, the total strength exceeded five divisions.
"Last time, they wanted to annihilate us all. If every press release could annihilate us, we would be acquainted with the King of Hell. This kind of bullshit is useless. However, in order to let the Western countries see our determination, you should also draft a press release and publish what I said last time exactly."
Li Shaoyi's words made everyone laugh. We are also good at verbal battles, but we chose to bring out the previous press release, which will make us laugh at you even more.
Fan Xiliang also felt a surge of blood rushing from the soles of his feet to his forehead. No wonder those Central Army officers disappeared after they arrived. He estimated that if he had not been promoted to major general, or even a colonel, he would have stayed.
This is truly a place where miracles are created.
"There's another telegram from Commander Fan's army. One battalion has already departed from Peking."
Hearing Natasha's words, Fan Xiliang felt his face getting hot. Judging from the current mobilization of the national army, the 36th Division can be said to be moving very quickly this time, but compared with Li Shaoyi's army, it is like a snail.
"Old Fan, you're leading your troops north. Regardless of the reason, I have to honor you. I've seen your army's situation. They're not lacking in light weapons, but they're lacking in artillery. The 36th Division is heading north, and I don't have much to offer. Based on our artillery company organization, I'll form two artillery companies for you. You provide the men and I'll provide the weapons."
Li Shaoyi thought about it and said that this army will also fight in the Battle of Shanghai in the future, so they should give what they deserve. Moreover, after arriving at the Xiongnu grassland, even if they are guarding the prisoners in the rear, this will free up many of our brothers to fight on the front line.
"Thank you, Commander Li!"
Although the 36th Division was the benchmark of the National Army, Fan Xiliang was still jealous of the equipment of the 72nd Division's artillery company.
Twelve 75mm mountain guns.
Eight 120mm mortars.
Twelve 100mm mortars.
Twelve 80mm mortars.
There are a total of 44 artillery pieces, 20 of which are large-caliber artillery pieces over 100 mm, which is extremely rare even in an army like the 36th Division.
Now I give two at once...
"I won't force you to buy cars or anything like that. I'll supply you with everything here. If you're willing to take it with you back south, I'll give it to you. But you'll have to find your own way around the gasoline in the future."
An artillery company has dozens of vehicles, and the amount of oil consumed every day is no joke. Li Shaoyi has an unlimited supply, and if Fan Xiliang takes it all back, he will go bankrupt in a few days.
Sure enough, after hearing what Li Shaoyi said, Fan Xiliang nodded with a wry smile. It was not that Li Shaoyi looked down on them, but he was telling the truth. Fan Xiliang had been with Li Shaoyi for a long time, and he knew that people on Li Shaoyi's side spoke very directly. Although it would make you lose face, they would solve real problems.
You may not be able to adapt to it at first, but after a long time, maybe you will like this environment. At least it is much better than those people wearing masks.
"Then our people are here. What mission are they carrying out?"
Fan Xiliang said anxiously.
"It's not easy for people from the south to adapt to the north. Most of your soldiers are from the Jiangsu and Zhejiang areas. When you arrive, you will first guard the prisoners of war and manage the Xiongnu in the rear. Once you have adapted, you will be assigned combat missions."
Although he was somewhat disappointed to hear this, Fan Xiliang also knew that what Li Shaoyi said was true. In this day and age, acclimatization could very well cost a person's life. After all, there was a shortage of medical care and medicine everywhere...
