Xu San has a plan, which already has a prototype in his mind.
It wasn't until I finished fooling Yamamoto this time that I became a little more specific.
I've been here for more than a month, and I haven't paid much attention to the Japanese defenses.
The biggest feature of these fortifications is that they are solidly built. Generally speaking, they are very difficult to attack.
The first thing Xu San thought of was heartless cannons. He also mentioned this idea to Li Si. Although Li Si was a handyman, he was not familiar with firearms and did not give any good advice. However, Li Si I still warned him, don't try this thing easily, you might blow yourself up.
Later, Xu San told Yao Guangyuan this idea, and he also said that he would hand it over to relevant technical personnel.
As a very famous weapon in later generations, Xu San certainly knew that this thing was definitely not as simple as an oil barrel and an explosive pack.
Even if you have an idea, research and development will take time.
So Xu San turned the problem to himself again, hoping to relieve the pressure of the Japanese "Cage Plan" on the Eighth Route Army from another aspect.
The fundamental reason why these fortifications such as gun towers and bunkers are strong is because of cement. Although it is not reinforced concrete, most of them are made of red bricks and cement. Once this thing is built, it is quite difficult to chew.
In the end, Xu San focused on cement and red bricks.
There are many shoddy projects in later generations, and they are all deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
It's hard to make good ones, but it's not easy to make bad ones?
Inspired by later generations of developers who cut corners, Xu San decided to turn the entire Japs's turrets and bunkers in northwest Shanxi into a large-scale shoddy project.
Of course, this is just a thought. Now that the Japanese have built a lot of defenses, this plan seems to have little effect at present.
But there is still a considerable number of gun towers needed for the "cage". Another point is that during the Hundred Regiment War in October, a large number of fortifications will be destroyed and need to be rebuilt.
During this period, there were two major cement factories in China, one in Tangshan and one in Kunming.
Considering the transportation problem, the cement used by the Jinxi Japs is basically from Tangshan Cement Factory.
But they are a big manufacturer, and they will definitely not accompany themselves to cheat.
Therefore, Xu San finally set his sights on building his own factory.
To build a factory by yourself, on the one hand, you have to manipulate the cement formula process, and on the other hand, you can use your own small shop to reverse strengthen it. Although the latter is not sure whether it is feasible, Xu San always wants to try it.
Xu San feels that the time is almost right now, because there is a candidate for the factory director, and this person is Yamamoto.
If he is made the director of the factory, the factory will have a foreign investment background and it will be easier to handle many things.
As Shinozuka's confidant, it was easy for him to get a large number of orders.
Although building a factory takes time and requires equipment, this is not a problem because there is Mishima Kazuhachi, the second young master.
His family has a strong industrial foundation and must have cement-producing machines. If new machines are not enough, they can get a second-hand set, and the second-hand ones can be used immediately, which can save construction costs. If they are run properly, they can be put into production in half a year.
As for the blank period at the beginning of the period, Xu San didn't want to waste it. He could build a kiln, engage in research and development, and produce a batch to open up the market.
Just now, Xu San connected all these together and thought it was feasible.
Originally, he planned to organize and report the plan, but after his mind cleared, he felt that he should be more cautious.
Don’t report the entire plan in one go. If you want to report in one go, find someone like Yao Guangyuan.
After thinking about it, let’s start from the first step.
"Sister Hua, help me get a list of technical personnel from Tangshan Cement Factory!"
"Tangshan Cement Factory?" Sister Hua was a little confused. Just now the topic was still at Yawuwu, but now it jumped to Tangshan. Why is this leader's thinking so out of the ordinary? And why do you want a list of technicians in the cement factory? But Sister Hua was very sensible and didn’t ask any more questions.
"Yes, that's it! This shouldn't be too difficult. I just need to go faster and spend some money if necessary."
"Promise to complete the task!" Sister Hua said seriously.
The technicians were only the first step, and the next step was to trick Yamamoto into entering the game.
According to Xu San's speculation, he should have almost set off to find Shinozuka now, and after he comes back, he should take targeted actions. As for how to act, Xu San really can't guess.
Thinking of this, Xu San said to Sister Hua: "Inform the comrades in the nearby county to stay calm during this period and don't make any big moves. I guess the Japanese may make some moves."
"What action?" Xiaohong asked curiously.
"The failure of the battle at Yawuwu will probably involve some problems within the Japanese army. I'm afraid that when they investigate, they will implicate the comrades."
"Okay, I will inform my superiors about this as soon as possible!" Xiao Hong nodded.
He took a sip of water and said, "Okay, I'm fine. Did anything special happen in Ancheng recently?"
"The Ping'an County branch of Furui Trading Company will be opened in two days. Furui Trading Company has donated a lot of money and materials to the organization. This time we came to Ping'an County to open a branch to make it easier to transfer materials. But they don't know that our sisters, he Shopkeeper Qian will be responsible for that line from now on."
"The semicolon is right opposite your house. I think they are trying to steal business from you." Xiaohong suddenly interrupted.
He pinched his head and recalled the information from the opposite door, "Is the owner of Furui Trading Company named Tian Kangnian?"
"Yes! Tian Kangnian, whose courtesy name is Yongde."
Xu San bought Yahuazi, and now no matter how he thought about it, he felt that there was something wrong with the Furui Trading Company that opened across the door. "Does he have a daughter named Tian Xue?"
"The Tian family has no sons, only two daughters. The eldest daughter is Tian Xue, and the second daughter is Tian Shuang." Sister Hua's answer confirmed Xu San's guess.
Fortunately, the other daughter's name is not Tian Yu, otherwise she would be really in trouble.
Xiaohong blinked and asked gossiping, "Third Master, do you know the eldest lady of the Tian family?"
"Don't ask what you shouldn't ask!" Sister Hua said with a smile. She also saw that the leader of her family must be related to the eldest daughter of the Tian family.
"I'd better tell you!" The woman's desire for gossip cannot be ignored. In order to prevent the two women from prying around, Xu San decided to tell them a little bit, "She has recovered from her injuries at my house, please keep it secret!"
After hearing this, Sister Hong's expression was normal, still smiling slightly.
However, Xiaohong's eyes widened immediately after hearing this, which was even more exaggerated than what she just said.
There are many stories about this Eighth Route Army soldier recuperating in a fellow villager's home, rubbing their ears and temples together, and then...
"Ahem, Comrade An Hong, pay attention to your expression!" Xu San shook his head and reminded again.
"This is my normal expression, okay? No matter that woman hears this kind of thing, she will do it." Xiaohong explained.
Xu San looked at Sister Hua, who nodded, "We women are particularly concerned about this kind of thing. It would look unnatural if we don't care."
