Time, November 4, 1950.

The first battle of the Goryeo War has ended, and the second battle is about to start again in about three days.

Location, the base camp of the Volunteer Army Logistics Base: a certain area in Liao Province.

"Look, Comrade Advisor Yang, this is the new ration we plan to prepare for the frontline soldiers. We call it fried noodles; it is mainly made of 70% wheat and 30% sorghum, or corn, soybeans and other materials.

constitute.

During the heating and frying process, add some salt and you can use it directly.

We roughly estimated that if we save a pound of fried noodles, it can last a volunteer soldier for three days.

If it's a whole bag, it can last up to 16 days..."

In a large warehouse, a volunteer logistics manager pointed to Yang Dongli a pile of newly developed new rations in front of him and explained them enthusiastically.

By the way! Lao Yang's current specific identity is that he is a special consultant from Peking, referred to as Consultant Yang.

It is the kind of person who has no decision-making power, but has the right to make suggestions, and can push everything he sees and thinks to the top.

Who said this guy said it himself in the beginning, he knows a little bit about everything.

Therefore, when the Volunteer Army encountered great difficulties in logistics, Consultant Yang was assigned to see if there could be some better way.

In this way, Yang Dongli, who was in Peiping two days ago, arrived here by plane.

Then, accompanied by relevant personnel from the logistics department, the process of visiting everywhere began.

Regarding the fact that these are probably added with soybeans, so they look like yellow powder, they are the legendary fried noodles; as well as all related circumstances, Yang Dongli, as a descendant of later generations, is of course very clear.

But he just knew that this stuff was terrible to eat, but he still really didn’t know what it tasted like.

So, after he casually opened a long dry food bag, he took out a handful of yellow powder and stuffed it into his mouth.

The next second later, poor Comrade Yang's chest began to rise and fall violently while coughing, like a tractor running at maximum power.

Almost half of the big handful of fried noodles that he just stuffed into his mouth was sprayed out.

The main reason is that he knew that this stuff tasted bad, but he never expected that it tasted so bad that he couldn't even describe such a bad feeling for a while.

Anyway, even if he tried hard to swallow, his throat felt like it was blocked by a handful of sand at that moment; while his throat was stretched so hard, he couldn't swallow at all.

Upon seeing this, the middle-aged man who called himself Lao Qian delivered an iron kettle with an unusually calm expression.

After downing most of the bottle of water with a bang, Lao Yang felt that he had regained his strength.

"Thank you. I was a little unprepared just now, so I ate in a hurry~" Lao Yang, who was very embarrassed, explained as he returned the kettle to Lao Qian.

Then, after spitting heavily and spitting out the last bits of fried noodles in his mouth, he instinctively complained again:

"This thing is too unpalatable. Besides, it is guaranteed not to starve to death. It has no nutrition at all. If you eat this kind of thing for a long time, your body will not be able to bear it..."

As a result, under such a complaint, Lao Qian smiled bitterly.

"Consultant Yang, don't we know what you are talking about? Guo Jia and the people everywhere are also very concerned about the frontline soldiers, whether they are wearing warm clothes and whether they are eating well.

Every day, a large amount of supplies are transported from all over the country, and a large part of them are voluntary donations from the masses, which they save from their teeth.

It's just that there is obviously a large amount of supplies stored here, but we have no way to deliver them.

Looking at the meat and vegetables that everyone saved from the gaps between their teeth, they were directly ruined.

The main reason is that before the war started, the more than 1,300 vehicles we prepared in advance had almost exhausted all the motor vehicles in Northeast and surrounding areas.

As a result, in less than a month, more than 1,000 vehicles have been destroyed by the soldiers' air force.

Their air force is much stronger than that of the Little Devils and the Fruit Army; now, let alone trucks on the roads, even large vehicles powered by animals such as mules and horses will be subject to high-intensity air attacks.

So often 10 trucks of supplies are prepared, but at most only one or two trucks can be delivered.

Don't we know that the soldiers on the front line are very poor, with only four or two meters of food, or the grains are only about a day's ration, and even some wild vegetables are not enough to feed themselves; they often have to save a little to support the people in North Korea.

It's just that we really have no choice now. I just want to push a chicken bus up to deliver supplies, but it's too far~"

When talking about what happened later, Lao Qian, a man in his forties, had his eyes red.

Seeing such a scene, Advisor Yang could only sigh heavily in his heart; this is the overwhelming advantage in logistics between industrial Guo Jia and agricultural Guo Jia in modern warfare.

With heavy demands, Consultant Yang visited many places in the following period.

Sure enough, as the old man said, in many warehouses and even on open spaces, I saw mountains of grain, meat, clothing, shoes and socks.

But apart from a small number of mules and horses loading these materials on carts for transportation, it is basically rare to see the existence of modern means of transportation such as cars...

It's night! By the time Consultant Yang returned to his residence, it was already past 10 o'clock in the evening.

After flying so far along the way, and walking around for more than ten hours after getting off the plane, Yang Dongli, whose physical fitness was not strengthened by the Alice T virus, felt very tired all over.

However, after washing his face with cold water, Comrade Yang forcibly cheered up.

Sitting at a table, with an extremely urgent sense of mission, I began to write a report.

First of all, I recorded and explained some of the things I saw with my own eyes during today's visit, without exaggerating or discounting them at all, in the report.

Secondly, he gave some of his own suggestions for the above situations. To sum up, they are probably as follows:

First, immediately send the equipment and materials that the big liar and others obtained from Mao Zi's house to the logistics base without waiting for a moment longer.

In this way, the transportation capacity can be improved to some extent.

In addition, weren't there some cans of Maozi among them? They were all sent up and distributed; when the volunteer soldiers were each given a bag of fried noodles, they were also given a can, or some compressed biscuits.

There were not many things, but Lao Yang thought that they might play a big role at a critical moment.

Second, combine some of the experience of the "Ho Chi Minh Trail" to establish a more stable transportation line that is resistant to bombing and attacks by soldiers.

Specifically speaking, it is to use some convoy traveling methods that stay in day and night.

Let them hide during the day, camouflage themselves at night, and move on as fast as possible.

Mobilize at least 5,000 people to establish some artificial air defense early warning chains before Zhuye completes the modification and installation of those original old radars.

Once a soldier's aircraft is discovered, a manual warning will be issued immediately.

Let the logistics transport convoy be concealed and evacuated immediately.

As for facing the bombing by the soldiers and air forces, prepare an engineering force; some secondary locations, such as roads, can be bombed casually by the soldiers, and after the bombing, the engineers can be used for emergency repairs.

And in important areas such as bridges and mountain streams, Maozi's batch of anti-aircraft guns and anti-aircraft machine guns were all deployed.

Don't be afraid of losses, be sure to defeat the air force of the soldiers.

Regarding this point, it is necessary for the excavator to produce the near-explosion fuse as soon as possible in order to achieve better results.

Third, all winter clothing is placed in the most appropriate position to ensure that the troops mobilized to enter Goryeo can change their clothes in the shortest time possible.

After all, the winter in North Korea cannot be resisted by willpower alone.

Fourth, we can also produce some canned and compressed dry food in China, but these products also do not have much technical content.

But compared to fried noodles, under the same volume, the calories and nutrients are much stronger.

The key is not to worry, because it took too long to deliver, causing a lot of meat to spoil in the back.

You can even make some self-heating cans, and they brought the relevant technology over this time; it is nothing more than lime heating when it meets water, such a simple scientific principle.

Fifth, considering that only primary agricultural products and related basic materials are exported, the added value is not high.

We can start to transform some small factories to produce some light industrial products.

What! With the technology and related information they brought over.

Advanced products such as televisions and automobiles will not be manufactured for a while. Could it be that hair dryers, electric fans, radios, and beautiful clothes cannot be manufactured yet?

Among them, especially some electronic products with advanced electron tubes can definitely become flagship products.

In addition, don't think that these small things are worthless, but as long as you make a large quantity, the profit will be quite objective.

The rabbits of later generations have proven this with practical actions.

With 800 million shirts exchanged for foreign currency, you can buy a Boeing aircraft; with the foreign currency exchanged for a few pairs of leather shoes, you can buy a production line.

When the quantity and variety increase, the economy will boom.

It is still in the initial stage of development! There is no shame in doing small business with others.

Sixth, the big liar should stop this guy from staying at Mao Zi's house. He can also go to Guojia in Eastern Europe and exchange food, medicine, etc. for some rags.

As the old saying goes, one person's trash is often another person's treasure...

In short, after smoking all night and filling the ashtray with cigarette butts in front of him, Lao Yang finally completed this eloquent and comprehensive report at dawn.

Then, they were sent back to Peiping as quickly as possible and delivered to the tables where the members could be decided.

After the above report and suggestions were sent to the heads of relevant personnel, they were immediately taken seriously and were quickly implemented.

Even many of them did not have immediate results in a short period of time.

But as time goes by, when the above measures gradually come into play, something different will obviously happen.

In this way, time passed little by little, and on November 7th, the second battle officially started.

It was also during this battle that MacArthur's bold words of "letting the boys go back for Christmas" became a joke that was constantly mentioned 70 years later.
To be continued...
