Nan Beichen and his people drove to Jinshanwei.
And the Sichuan Army Corps, which they had thrown away and were rushing to the front line, was heading to Jinshan Guard to obey his orders.
When they arrived at Jinshan Guard, Nan Beichen found that the defense line was very weak. No wonder the little Japs landed before they had time to support Jinshan Guard.
"Immediately reinforce the defense line, and while the little devils still have a few days to recover, immediately build a large number of bunkers and firepower points."
Currently, the front is supported by a strong fortress, and the rest of the troops only need to deploy a defense line within ten kilometers.
There are more than 50,000 troops in this place. If the Japanese cannot destroy the soldiers here, they will be unable to move even an inch.
Even if you send out a small force to raid other places, it will be useless.
The large army will not dare to go over and will be able to extinguish it for you quickly.
The Japs would need 300,000 troops to control the entire fortress, so where would they have the extra troops to attack other places.
Unless a loophole can really be found, then it is here at Jinshan Guard.
Once the coastal areas are captured, it will be meaningless for the isolated city of Jinling.
Either give up or hold on.
If the Japanese occupy Zhejiang Province, the next step is to invade Gan Province. Once Gan Province is defeated, they can directly move up the river, and Jinling will become an isolated city.
Therefore, the Jinshan Guards would not give them a chance, and a new army was added to garrison in West Lake City, Zhejiang Province.
As long as the Japs can't get to Jinshan Guard, they can only remain in a stalemate for a while.
Nan Beichen was counting the days while transporting various supplies truck by truck from Dazhuang Fortress to Jinshan Guard.
The houses here are all relatively low, like a huge town, with clean brick houses everywhere.
"Folks, please evacuate to the rear first. This is about to become a front line. Artillery shells don't have long eyes. You can take trucks to the Dazhuang Fortress to take refuge."
Nan Beichen wants to send everyone here to the Strong Fortress, where it will not be a problem to feed 10 million people for ten years.
What's more, there are more than 10,000 people here, and what he urgently needs now is this labor force.
Even if the old lady is on the assembly line, there is always work she can do.
Today's country has reached a time when the country is ruined and the family is destroyed. Let's respect the old and love the young before we win the battle!
The country is gone, so what's the use of talking nonsense.
Trucks loaded with people evacuated to Dazhuang Fortress.
In this way, Nanbeichen now has tens of thousands of laborers.
I'll definitely make arrangements for them if I go.
Under normal circumstances, it can move on the surface.
Wherever there are little Japs out nearby, there are national troops stationed ten kilometers ahead, within the range of artillery support.
Therefore, the national army is very confident. Even if some artillery can't reach it, the 155mm cannon is definitely possible. Is it a joke to be able to fire artillery for more than 20 kilometers?
There are also 150mm howitzers with a range of 13,250 meters, which is a range of 13 kilometers.
The most important thing is that each unit is currently equipped with at least one artillery company of Type 92 infantry artillery.
Currently, Nan Beichen is working overtime every day to produce Type 92 infantry guns and shells.
This artillery is really useful in troops that don't have enough mules, horses and trucks.
Whether it's a curved projectile or a direct aim, it's a good thing.
This infantry gun was probably the best used by the Japanese during World War II.
You can call it the essential oil infantry cannon. It can be said that the performance of the infantry cannon has been developed to the extreme.
This is why Nanbeichen imitated the Type 92 infantry cannon of the Little Japanese instead of the German infantry cannon.
The weight of the German infantry artillery was much heavier than that of the Japs, and it was difficult for the national army without enough mules, horses and cars to pull them.
It's not like the Type 92 infantry artillery. In a hurry, they just dismantle the wheels, and the two men carry the barrel and run away.
In addition, the Czech-style light machine gun has also changed its ammunition capacity. The 20-round magazine is really insufficient in terms of firepower.
By directly using a 35-round magazine, the firepower was doubled.
This will also better suppress the little Japanese's Taisho 11 crooked light machine gun.
With tens of thousands of troops stationed in front, the entire Dazhuang Fortress would be impregnable.
The workers working inside can also come out for activities.
You can even take a truck to the rear, Sioux City and other places.
However, in the eyes of the workers, Dazhuang Fortress is safer. Not only does it provide free food, drink and accommodation, but also wages.
Only a fool would go anywhere else!
Even Japanese planes don't dare to come here.
Needless to say, we all know how good the security is.
After a large amount of materials, steel bars, cement, and stones were transported, the fortress was built directly inside and outside the town.
A main fortress is equipped with firepower from six heavy machine guns in three directions: southeast, west, and south.
The rest of the area is supplemented by a single bunker.
In this way, two strong lines of defense, both internal and external, began to be built.
It takes time for the Japanese to mobilize troops from the country, and they can't just pull them up and do it when they arrive.
This gave Nan Beichen a week, which was enough time for these fortifications to be effective.
"time to eat!"
With a shout, everyone immediately looked forward to having their meal with their eyes shining brightly.
Since the arrival of the Sichuan Army and the New Seventh Army, the food they eat every day is better than the food they eat during the New Year.
Because they are on the front line, they eat simple food. Even this so-called simple food is the best food for the Sichuan Army.
Two soldiers from the cooking squad carried a large iron bucket covered with a leather cover for insulation.
There are vegetables and rice in an iron bucket.
Nan Beichen's rule is that unless hot food and rice are really unavailable, the rest of the time must ensure that the soldiers have hot food and rice for every meal.
After opening the lid, a strong fragrance penetrated into the nostrils of the Sichuan soldiers with yellow faces and thin muscles.
"Line up! One by one, what do they look like?"
The young man who couldn't see any sign on the brochure and collar badge scolded the soldiers with an engineering shovel.
This is Meng Fan, the adjutant, herald, translator, and logistics officer of Long Wenwen, the newly arrived leader of the Sichuan Army Corps.
"Is it bothering you not to eat?"
Ma Dazhi, who was nicknamed Snake Butt, asked.
A small group of people in this group are the group leader's confidant brothers, brothers who died together.
As for the snake butts, Ma Dazhi and Meng Fanglia, they are both the group leader's confidant brothers.
A young man took a rice spoon and started to cook.
If anyone knows him, he will definitely know that he is Nan Beichen of the New Seventh Army.
It's just that the cook who worked part-time today came to prepare meals for the soldiers.
When he saw a familiar figure who needed a beating, he couldn't help but want to heal him.
"Are you shaking your hands so much? You've shaken all your flesh!"
Private Mi Long looked displeased as Nan Beichen shook off the two large pieces of meat in the big iron spoon and said dissatisfied.
"Then do you want to eat? If you don't eat, forget it."
Nan Beichen looked at Charon with a half-smile but said.
"Grandma, you're a jerk. Believe it or not, I'm going to kill you. Who are you going to be with as a cook?"
Milong couldn't help but want to take action.
But he was held back by the brothers behind him. After all, if he offended the cook, he would not have a good life in the future.
