Chapter 309 Military Base
The news that Changshan County wiped out 130,000 people from Shizhou in three days did not cause any waves in the empire.
There is no report about this incident anywhere, not even on the Internet, which has always been a lawless place. The only thing that confuses netizens is that several websites have inexplicably added 808.
Major mainstream newspapers such as the Empire's main newspaper are still promoting the theory that the Empire will win, listing the Empire's various advantages, boasting about the Empire's two stars, boasting about the Empire's general Yamashiko Takeshi, and deliberately creating an atmosphere of worship, trying to make the two stars into idols.
The Empire Twins do have this capital. With perfect packaging, anyone can look extraordinarily handsome.
They quickly became popular among young people, and both sides even formed fan clubs to fight each other online.
The main news in major media outlets has been replaced by celebrity gossip. Apart from the official headlines, there is no news related to the war.
But for the upper echelons of the empire, the news of Shizhou's disastrous defeat was known to everyone.
Different parties have different opinions on this, but most of them are mocking and think that the governor has lost face.
Some gamblers who had bet their lives that Changshan County would lose in three days were very angry about this.
Empire Gaming Company made a fortune from this.
At the same time, the theory of Changshan County's quick defeat quickly disappeared, the odds for seven-day and fifteen-day odds were inverted, and the odds for thirty-day odds rose rapidly.
However, no one still thinks that Changshan County will win, but it may lose in a decent way.
Judging from previous covert wars, Changshan County may be able to obtain compensation of around 2 billion to resolve this feud.
Lian Qin Luoshuang also thought so. She had already proposed this goal at the headquarters and asked Lao Xie to prepare 2 billion funds in advance.
For this reason, Lin Wen didn't even look at the man, and made a special trip back to the Changshan County Command Headquarters to severely criticize Qin Luoshuang's surrender view.
He also asked the entire army to be prepared for a major battle and put forward an incredible suggestion.
"Build a military camp in the Qichuan Mountains."
The reasons are very good.
"Every time Shizhou sends someone to deliver a package, we have to take a boat for over 300 kilometers and cross mountains and rivers to get it. It's so troublesome. Why don't we just station there and have them deliver it directly to our doorstep?"
For the first time, Qin Luoshuang felt that her brain was not enough.
What's worse is that she found that she was the only one who dissented, and everyone in the entire headquarters supported Lin Wen.
"Don't be too proud! They are just a ragtag army!" Qin Luoshuang tried to reason.
Fang Dashan said with a smile: "Chief of Staff Qin, County Magistrate Lin said, please stop spreading your surrender ideas in the headquarters. Changshan County is invincible!"
"Yes, Changshan County is invincible! Long live County Governor Lin!"
"Long live!"
Qin Luoshuang felt like all the blood vessels in her brain were about to explode. She tried her best to endure and not kick everyone present away.
"Lin Wen, I'm not saying surrender. I'm just analyzing the situation rationally. What we've gained from Shizhou is definitely not measurable with 2 billion. The best approach is to settle the feud as soon as possible at an appropriate price. Otherwise, the consequences will be unbearable for us..."
Lin Wen patted his chest and said, "I still have a trump card."
"What's the trump card?"
"Hehe, that's me...I won't tell you."
Qin Luoshuang felt the sound of her cerebral blood vessels breaking in her mind.
[Without a Colorful Phoenix] The alarm sounded sharply, and Lin Wen realized that his Phoenix was on the verge of going berserk.
He immediately opened his mind to the world.
It opened its mouth and said, "Your best friend is so pretty."
Inexplicably, Qin Luoshuang's anger subsided. Her eyes flickered, her expression was slightly complicated, and her tone softened.
"Lin Wen, let's not talk about anything else. You built your military camp in the Qichuan Mountains, which is over 300 kilometers away from our core area. How are we going to get supplies? Are you going to use my cargo ships to transport them?"
"It's for the navy." Lin Wen corrected, "I will build a road from the center of Changshan County to the Qichuan Mountains."
Qin Luoshuang's two beautiful willow-shaped eyebrows were almost twisted into a ball:
"Changshan County is surrounded by mountains to the west. Do you know how difficult it is to build a road through these mountains? And it won't be built overnight. Do you think you can get a car through it in a few years?"
Lin Wen said, "It will only take a few days."
Qin Luoshuang was silent for a moment, then asked, "Java Engineering Team?"
Lin Wen smiled and said, "How clever."
Qin Luoshuang felt a little relieved.
"Have you chosen a location?"
"Yes, it's in Erlong Valley in the Qichuan Mountains."
This was the answer given to him by [Immortal Guidance], but it cost him a lot of his energy.
Fang Dashan brought out a map, and everyone gathered around the table and found the location marked with Erlong Valley.
From the perspective of terrain, Erlong Valley is located in the center and front of the Qichuan Mountains, only more than 20 kilometers away from the vast Gobi Desert outside the mountains.
Setting up a military camp here is like guarding the gate of Changshan County.
Qin Luoshuang took out another military map, which was a detailed map she had sent people to survey and draw before the war.
These people are all fighters, and detailed maps are treasures to them. When they see this map with even tactical markings drawn on it, their eyes light up green.
Fang Dashan couldn't help but want to touch the map, but Qin Luoshuang held it down firmly.
"This is mine, you can only look at it from my side."
Apparently, she also has this bad habit of treating maps as treasures.
Lin Wen impatiently pulled her hand away: "What do you mean by 'your hands'? This belongs to everyone."
Everyone smiled happily and came over to take a look.
I saw that Erlong Valley was right on the largest main road in the Qichuan Mountains. It was flat and had a wide terrain. It had both water sources and good views, and was well connected.
If used as a military base, it is indeed a very good choice.
If the Changshan County army were stationed here, it would have the spirit of guarding the mountain gate.
Moreover, if some more bunkers, towers and other military facilities can be built in the Qichuan Mountains, the enemy can be blocked in the Gobi Desert by relying on the terrain.
In this way, Changshan County had a great strategic advantage. If both sides did not want to suffer huge losses, they could only look at each other from afar and confront each other.
The secret war will not last long, and the final result will be a peaceful ending.
This is undoubtedly a better outcome for Changshan County.
Qin Luoshuang gradually came to her senses. She looked at Lin Wen with a complicated expression and had to admit that as a strategist, her vision was not as long-term as Lin Wen's.
"Okay, let's quickly plan the construction plan."
Once his thoughts changed, Qin Luoshuang's mind started working at high speed again.
As long as there is a road, setting up a military camp is actually very simple. You just need to level the ground, clear the space, move some simple barracks over, and build the necessary buildings, and a military camp is established.
Various military facilities will be added later. As long as you are willing to spend money, it will be no problem to build a military base.
Moreover, building permanent military defense facilities such as bunkers is a compulsory course in the military academy, and Qin Luoshuang is very accomplished in this course.
She is best at building bunkers.
Suddenly, the dark clouds in my heart were dispelled and the bright sunshine shone in.
"I shouldn't have doubted him."
Qin Luoshuang thought to herself, gritted her teeth, walked to his side, and said softly: "Lin Wen, I..."
Lin Wen turned his head and saw her icy face, willow-like eyebrows, small nose, and thin red lips. He frowned slightly and said:
"Why are you so close? I told you, my first kiss was from Jiu Tian Xuan..."
when!
"Go to hell!"
——
The construction of the Qichuanshan military camp was much faster than expected, because within a few days, the road leading directly to Erlong Valley was completed.
A dirt road, to be exact.
Because the ground is not paved with any cement or concrete, it is just the original dirt road.
However, it remains a shocking and unimaginable miracle highway.
Because it starts from the starting point in the east and goes all the way to Erlong Valley, it is a straight line, straighter than one drawn with a ruler.
It faced the precipitous terrain, complex and ever-changing topography of the western mountainous area of Changshan County, and the magnificent power of nature. Without a trace of compromise, it pierced through all the mountains and reached its destination.
Not even the altitude changed.
This miracle road is 346 kilometers long, 300 kilometers of which are in tunnels or simply underground.
After inspecting the entire highway, Chief Engineer Yang, the Changshan County road construction team's chief engineer, couldn't help but sigh, "The chemical formula the Java engineering team used to dissolve the rock is worth at least 10 billion yuan. If we were to use conventional methods to dig through this 300-kilometer tunnel, it would take at least a year, and the cost would be astronomical."
With such a smooth road, vehicles can drive on it even without asphalt concrete.
So, trucks loaded with military supplies and simple barracks materials drove towards Erlong Valley one after another.
With the joint efforts of nearly 100,000 soldiers and laborers, a simple military camp soon took shape.
After the subsequent construction of fuel depots, military supply warehouses, command agencies, barracks, training grounds, military communication facilities, pipelines and power transmission lines, this military camp will become a military base of Changshan County in the west, which has very important strategic significance.
Qin Luoshuang's plan was very comprehensive. There were many people fighting in Changshan County, but she was the only one who could do this kind of professional construction.
Lin Wen found an excuse to touch her for 159 seconds and passed her a [Yangzhi Ganlu] to prevent it from being damaged by accidental overuse.
Then it will be too late to regret.
According to Qin Luoshuang's plan, if possible in the future, various military projects and support facilities will be built in this base.
Including military caves, military airports, test sites, communication reconnaissance stations and navigation observation stations, military roads and dedicated railway lines, etc.
When all this is done, a complete military base will be built.
Changshan County was no longer a small local army, but a regular army with a modern military base.
Of course, the dream is still far away, and it is currently at the stage of expanding the military camp and building bunkers on the mountain.
But at least there is a direction to work towards.
This miraculous highway was named Qichuanshan Highway. Chief Engineer Yang, a road engineering expert, specifically asked Zhao Minggong for 50,000 workers and established a project in the county government office, preparing to complete the construction of this highway without affecting transportation.
Lin Wen, who completed such a grand project alone, really didn't have a single drop left.
The primordial spirit was completely drained out, and the "Xuannv's Remaining Fragrance" was absorbed for the last time. At the end, there were even a few meters of [Fossils to Soil] that were only half dissolved.
Lin Wen dug it out himself, but he was exhausted.
What’s even more torturous is that he has to go see men during the day.
The black rate this time is very low. Among more than 70,000 people, only a few hundred are fully black or half black or more.
More than 70,000 people joined the human security force at once, expanding it to 86,000 people, more than twice the number of the regular army.
The governor's army had to be expanded to 3,000 people, and because of the large number of people, the calculation of military merits was complicated, so a special military merit department had to be established to calculate their military merits.
The human security forces also expanded from seven regiments to eleven regiments, with each regiment having nearly eight thousand people, which is unprecedented.
Although the human security forces do not receive any salary, Lin Wen does not intend to discriminate against them. Their supplies of materials and ammunition are the same as those of the regular army.
The consumption of more than 80,000 soldiers was extremely high, and coupled with the more than 40,000 regular troops, Changshan County's economy, which had just become prosperous not long ago, became stretched again.
Old Xie started pulling at his hairless bald head again.
