Chapter 1324 Japanese Army is Assembling

When Matthew Wen returned to the office, Zhao Zhiguo told him about the anti-aircraft weapons.

"The air defense weapons have arrived in Le County. If calculated according to normal road speeds, our air defense weapons should indeed have reached Anyang Town. The roads from Le County to Anyang Town are all mountainous roads. Horses and oxcarts cannot pass. We can only rely on manpower.

Come for transportation.”

Rough road conditions have caused great difficulties in transportation.

If you want to get rich, you must first build roads. In fact, the prosperity of a country cannot be separated from the construction of infrastructure.

"Should we build a road between Le County and Anyang Town?" Matthew asked.

The improvement of transportation efficiency will be beneficial to the delivery of materials into Zhao Zhiguo's defense area, and will also be beneficial to the transportation of materials within Zhao Zhiguo's defense area.

In peaceful times, this path can still work.

"Building this road will require a lot of manpower and material resources, and it will also involve blowing up mountains!" Zhao Zhiguo said.

Building roads in the mountains is not like building roads on the plains. It requires a large amount of explosives to blast a road in the mountains.

Mobilizing the local people would delay production. Zhao Zhiguo only had so many Japanese prisoners of war in his hands. They were all working in the black coal mines, and there were not many prisoners of war to build roads.

Of course, if there was that kind of large machinery, Zhao Zhiguo would definitely not worry about this.

However, they don't even see many trucks nowadays, let alone large-scale machinery and equipment. If they rely on manpower to build a road for trucks, it won't be possible in two years.

Two years later, Zhao Zhiguo's defense zone will definitely not be like this, and of course the attitude of the country to the north towards China will definitely not be what it is now.

Even if they still allow this transportation line to exist, Zhao Zhiguo and the others can replace it with a suitable road.

Therefore, building this road is very useless to Zhao Zhiguo and others.

It is a waste to spend a lot of manpower, material and financial resources to build roads that are not used in the end.

Matthew nodded silently.

If the situation develops well in the past two years, Zhao Zhiguo and the others can capture a large number of Japanese and puppet soldiers.

Having these prisoners of war to build roads can save a lot of supplies. The most important thing is that with Zhao Zhiguo's methods, these prisoners will only die from exhaustion and will never die a good death.

The twelve-hour working day is the preferential treatment for the little Japanese prisoners of war, and the eighteen-hour workload a day is the respect for the little Japanese prisoners of war.

"Gaocang has sent troops to respond. Although the speed is a bit full, in ten days, the anti-aircraft machine guns will definitely reach Pingcheng first."

"Have you received any telegrams from the headquarters recently?" Matthew asked Tian Kezhi.

Tian Kezhi shook his head: "Not really!"

Whether he heard it or not, Ma Xiuwen glanced at Zhao Zhiguo doubtfully.

After such a long time, Matthew Wen was convinced that the very "problematic" report written by Zhao Zhiguo had already been sent to the headquarters.

There was no follow-up attitude from the headquarters, which made Matthew Wen a little confused.

"Are you sure?"

"I am very sure that we will have backup copies of the telegrams from the headquarters. One copy will be kept in the confidential room and the other will be kept in the headquarters." Tian Kezhi said.

"It shouldn't be!"

"There is nothing wrong with it. Sometimes not having an attitude is just an attitude." Zhao Zhiguo said.

On certain issues, you cannot be too clear about it. When you are confused, you can still explain that it is a misunderstanding between the two parties. If you have a clear attitude and are seen through by others, and you want to reconcile with each other, they will definitely disagree.

So sometimes, no attitude is the best attitude.

Everyone knows it, but it's tacit.

"I wish I didn't know about this now." Matthew felt that there were nails on his chair and adjusted his sitting position to a comfortable position.

"There is another good thing to tell you. The second batch of arms is already at sea and will arrive soon." Zhao Zhiguo said.

Jiang Wenzheng's efficiency is pretty good. After all, with so many weapons produced, they only need to rent a cruise ship and send the weapons to China.

"So fast? It seems that Jiang Wen is doing a good job over there." Matthew Wen didn't expect the second batch of weapons to arrive so soon. "How is the situation over there with your little foreigner? Have you heard any news about him recently?

?”

Jack returned to China and established a multinational company with Zhao Zhiguo, specifically responsible for the arms sales business.

Nowadays, Jack travels all over the world. People would leave wherever there is a war. Jack would run wherever there is a war.

"The little foreigner definitely doesn't have time to contact us, so we don't need to worry about him. If he is honest, we will benefit a lot. If he is not honest, we will not lose anything. He will definitely send weapons to China."

After the Japanese army occupied the southernmost port in mainland China, many supplies could no longer be transported in from China's ports.

At this time, China is in need of external supplies, and Jack's status as a foreigner can play a big role.

"This is a gamble! Bet on whether he will treat you as a brother." Matthew said.

Zhao Zhiguo just smiled and said nothing.

Although there was a written agreement between him and Jack, Zhao Zhiguo did not have actual control after all. If Jack changed his mind, he would still be able to prosper in arms.

"Yesterday our division commander sent us a telegram," Zhao Zhiguo said.

"The 129th Division Headquarters?"

"Yes, they discovered the movement of the Japanese army to gather, and their troops behind enemy lines also took the initiative to attack. The Japanese army had no idea about them." Zhao Zhiguo said.

Troops behind enemy lines also frequently attack, just to provoke the Japs and see where their bottom line is.

The Japanese army did not take these frequent harassments seriously and only passively defended themselves on the spot.

Therefore, the intention of the Japanese army is obvious, which is to come to Zhao Zhiguo's First Military Division.

"How much strength has the Japanese army gathered?"

"Judging from the scope and scale of troops mobilized by the nearby Japanese troops, the division headquarters will be able to assemble 100,000 troops in another half month. Whether the number will continue to increase depends on how much supplies the little devils can mobilize."

The Japanese army cannot mobilize troops without limit. If they don't have enough supplies and gather 500,000 people, they can't send all 500,000 people to the front line to drink from the northwest wind.

"One hundred thousand people is already a huge pressure on us. As the battle on the frontline unfolds, the Japanese army will definitely send more troops." Matthew said.

Once the two sides reach a stalemate on the front line, the Japanese army will inevitably crush Zhao Zhiguo and others by increasing their troops.

These 100,000 people can become 120,000 at any time, and 150,000 can even reach 200,000.
