Chapter 221 Desperate Attack, Borrowing a Special Train
"It's right to oppose them. These old guys only care about their own selfish interests and never care about the lives of the people. They really think we are all fools!"
After reading the information in his hand, Zhang Ye was also very happy, and his depressed mood was instantly relieved a little.
From this we can see that the people are gradually awakening and adapting to the arrival of this new era. They are no longer submissive as before, bowing their heads and accepting the trampling of the powerful.
Good things require temper, courage and cognition to create unlimited possibilities under limited conditions.
"The battle in Zhili Province is in full swing. Is there any pressure on He Wei?"
Moving his gaze to Zhili Province, Zhang Ye asked with his hands behind his back after seeing that most of the territory had been occupied by the First Corps.
In his mind, it should not be a problem for He Wei to deal with the remnants of Feng's faction. Without the support of allies, Cao Xin and others would not be able to make any big waves.
"The initial progress was very smooth. They encountered some difficulties in the past two days, and they are still trying to overcome them."
This time, before Lu Shan could respond, Chang Rui came in from outside, sweating profusely. After feeling the coolness in the room, the boy shuddered slightly, ran to the ice basin without any hesitation, picked up a bottle of soda, and continued to report.
"The Feng clique somehow obtained some anti-tank mines, which slowed down their offensive. Currently, He Wei and the others are trying to figure out how to deal with that major problem."
"That's easy! Just bomb the ground with artillery shells. Bomb them before you start advancing!"
Zhang Ye turned around and said as a matter of course.
"It's not that simple. The Feng Clan isn't stupid. They don't play by the rules at all."
Chang Rui smiled and shook his head, unbuttoned his collar, and continued while enjoying the cool breeze.
"They use anti-tank mines as hand grenades. If they don't bury them in the ground, they'll just carry them under your tank. There's no way to defend against them."
"Wow, there are such brave warriors in the Feng faction?"
Upon hearing this, Zhang Ye was deeply surprised. He didn't expect Cao Xin to be so good at causing trouble.
They actually used such a brutal method to resist the attack of the tank troops.
Interesting, he really has some skills.
"God knows what kind of magic potion Cao Xin fed them, but I have to say, this method is really effective. Over the past few days, the First Corps has lost more than 20 tanks."
"If we continue fighting like this, the losses will only get bigger and bigger."
After reporting the battle situation, Chang Rui took off his head and wiped his wet hair, then looked at the situation in the cabin and joked.
"Marshal, you really know how to find a place. I just looked ahead and there's open space with a great view."
"It has nothing to do with you. Why are you here instead of staying in Shangdu?"
Zhang Ye sat upright at the wooden table, took out a cigarette box and lit one.
As long as there is no urgent war report, the conversations between them will be more casual. Unlike other forces, there are clear levels and people dare not even make jokes.
"The war has begun near Yudu. As the commander-in-chief, how can I not come?"
Chang Rui ran up to him with a smile, stroked the cold Coke bottle in his hand, and sighed happily.
"You have food and drinks here and it's so cool. I should have come earlier."
"Get out of the way. This is my operations room. All of you from the Second Corps are at the foot of the mountain."
Zhang Ye didn't want so many people to crowd into the cabin, so he quickly waved his hand to chase the boy away.
"We're all family, so stop being so stingy, okay? I can just build my own house next door."
Chang Rui was stubborn and refused to leave.
The main reason is that the location here is really good, and Zhang Ye’s optical telescope can see the front line across a distance of dozens of kilometers. With such a good thing, he definitely wants to use it.
Besides, there are cold storage, generators and cool air on the mountain. With such convenient conditions, why should we stay at the foot of the mountain to bask in the sun?
"You can be wherever you like, just don't occupy my territory."
Zhang Ye smiled and shook his head, taking the opportunity to make a request.
"It's a hassle anyway, so when the time comes, give me the land in front of the door and build a basketball court."
"Okay, building an airport is no problem!"
Chang Rui nodded happily and started climbing up the pole.
"But I also have a request, and I'd like to ask the Marshal for help."
"I knew you weren't holding your fart in, just say it if you have something to say!"
Zhang Ye took a puff of his cigarette butt, having already expected that this boy would want to ask for something.
There is a war going on at the front, and he, as the commander-in-chief, is busier than anyone else. If it weren't a difficult issue, he would definitely not come here in person.
"It's like this. The weather has been getting hotter lately, and the logistics lines are busy moving military supplies. The meat that was delivered before has gone rancid."
When talking about business, Chang Rui put away his smile, and was a little afraid to look him in the eyes, muttering softly.
"So...so I'd like to use your special train to get some meat...pork or something..."
"That's all? If you want to use it, just use it..."
Zhang Ye was slightly stunned. Just as he was about to agree, he suddenly realized something was wrong. He immediately looked at his guilty look and asked.
"Are you pulling pig or meat?"
"My special train has been renovated, and you brought a train full of pigs and shit and piss. How am I supposed to use it in the future?"
"Look, look, this isn't a discussion, why are you getting anxious?"
Chang Rui spread his hands and explained with gritted teeth.
"It's too hot right now, and we don't have widespread cold storage. I finally managed to get some meat, but before my brothers could eat it, it already stank on the road."
"I'm at my wit's end, so I thought of bringing some live pigs over to be slaughtered on the spot."
"Why don't you use your car?"
Zhang Ye looked at him sideways and complained with dissatisfaction.
Wow, this guy is really bold. He wants to use the Marshal’s special train to carry live pigs. Is this acceptable?
"My car has already turned back to Qizhou to collect the ammunition!"
Chang Rui stiffened his neck and proved himself.
"I came to Yudu by car this time. Right now, all the trains available in the entire Central Plains battlefield are busy running back and forth, leaving only your special train idle at the station..."
"Okay, okay, you can pull whatever you want. I'll give it to you. I don't want it, is that okay?"
Zhang Ye knew that it was not easy for them, so he simply waved his hand and refused it.
At worst, we can just take a car in the future. Qizhou is already preparing for the airport anyway. Once the plane is built, who would bother taking the train?
"Thank you, Marshal, thank you for the reward. Don't worry, I will definitely brush it clean for you after use, without any odor!"
Chang Rui, whose demands were met, quickly stood up and saluted. His mouth was so wide that his back teeth could be seen, and his tonsils would pop out.
They have no choice now. The arrival of a large number of artillery units has caused a sharp drop in the corps' logistics and artillery ammunition storage. If the supply cannot be allocated in time, everyone can only stare blankly, watching the cannons in front of them but unable to fire.
