The next day.

Li Yunlong took the assembled battalion and went to the border area logistics with great fanfare.

have no idea.

I thought the Independence Regiment was going to fight.

After arriving at the border manufacturing facility, Zhou Yu also came out to greet them.

original.

Li Yunlong thought that Zhou Yu would be surprised that he had so many people. But who knew that when Zhou Yu saw more than a thousand people in a camp, he was not curious at all, and instead asked them to build their own rooms around it.

Border manufacturing plant.

There were hundreds of people there before.

so.

More than a thousand people suddenly arrived, and there was no place for them to live.

And these two months.

All the soldiers from the first battalion of the Independent Regiment will spend their time here.

There must be a place to sleep. If you don't build a house, you will have to sleep on the mountain.

then.

Under Zhou Yu's arrangement.

The red bricks and cement started to burn again.

However, since there were quite a few people coming this time, most of them brought hay and mud to make adobe bricks, and then improvised to build large thatched sheds.

The soldiers crowded together at night.

Our soldiers!

Never be afraid of hardship.

However, because of this incident, the work was delayed for a few days.

After these two busy days.

Zhou Yu then began to arrange for these people to mine chalcopyrite and hematite. Of course, not all of them were sent, but half were left behind to start building new factories, cement plants, and more iron-making blast furnaces!

but.

According to the division commander's order, Zhou Yu transferred Li Yunlong to dig the mines himself.

Just follow his words.

If the leader takes the lead, the soldiers will dig harder.

With more people, Zhou Yu's goals are naturally no longer limited to the two previous mines. There are also rare mineral spots that are also ready to be mined.

For example, chrome ore, nickel ore, etc. related to gun barrels.

Or the sphalerite required for the production of all copper-zinc alloy brass for bullet casings, etc.

A few days later.

The soldiers also felt that mining was a tiring job, but they did not clamor to quit.

after all.

Their leader Li Yunlong is still working!

Wait another half month.

Once the soldiers have adapted to the intensity of the miners' work, it doesn't matter.

With the increase in the number and types of ore mining, the logistics department also has more metals. Zhou Yu has not been slacking off these days, not only producing the m7a1 grenade launcher signed in Ping'an County.

at the same time!

They also used the excess iron ore and manganese ore to produce some manganese steel and made helmets for the soldiers.

Manganese steel.

It is the raw material used for train tracks.

This thing is pretty good as a helmet.

someone said!

Things like steel helmets cannot stop bullets, are completely useless, and are a waste of resources to make.

actually not.

On the battlefield, steel helmets are still useful.

But the most important thing is that Zhou Yu can't do anything if he doesn't use these overcapacity metals to make helmets. More than a thousand people were transferred from the Independent Regiment, plus the New First Regiment and the New Second Regiment and two companies are still there.

He is here.

Ore production capacity is a bit high.

There are only about a hundred workers in the border manufacturing plant.

It’s really too much to consume.

Zhou Yu could only bear the pain and gave the extra metal raw materials to the headquarters repair shop.

That is.

Huangyadong Arsenal.

And this day at noon.

Zhou Yu was busy thinking about how to increase the number of workers in the workshop, but at this time guard Xiao Li brought delicious meals prepared in the kitchen.

One meat and three vegetables!

There is also a soup.

Today is another meat-eating day.

These are foods that only the comrades in charge of production in the military factory workshops can enjoy.

The soldiers in Li Yunlong's battalion couldn't afford it.

It’s not that Zhou Yu didn’t give it.

That’s really not their fault!

after all.

The headquarters cannot afford to provide meals for a thousand people.

Xiao Li took out the bowls and chopsticks from the basket one by one, placed the food on the table and said: "Minister, the guy named Duan Peng you brought back from Ping'an County last time is causing trouble again!"

Duan Peng?

Good guy!

Ever since Li Yunlong and thousands of people came to mine, Zhou Yu has been very busy and exhausted.

They were all forgotten by Duan Peng.

He patted his forehead and asked: "Didn't I tell Duan Peng to be my bodyguard last time? What is he making a fuss about?"

Xiao Li said: "Minister, that guy Duan Peng refuses to stay. He is clamoring to leave with his mother."

turn out to be!

This kid's thoughts.

Still at his mother's place!

Thinking of this, Zhou Yu stood up, walked around the house a few times, and then said to Xiao Li: "Go and call Duan Peng over!"

"yes."

after awhile.

Duan Peng was brought over by Xiao Li.

This guy.

Have practiced martial arts.

But before, I had never been a soldier and had not received the ideological education of our army.

so.

He doesn't understand the rules of our army.

Zhou Yu didn't pay attention to this, just smiled and asked: "Duan Peng, I heard that you are clamoring to go back?"

"Yes, I want to take my mother back and raise her by myself!" Duan Peng replied directly.

Such Duan Peng!

Zhou Yu looked helpless and was not as easy to persuade as the monk.

Before he rescued Wei Dayong.

That guy was originally a member of the Central Army who fought against Japanese invaders. After all, fighting Japanese soldiers doesn't matter where he fights.

So it didn't take any effort to stay.

Duan Peng is different!

This guy used to be a good citizen of the Japanese in enemy-occupied areas. He didn't have much attachment to his family and country, and he just wanted to provide for his mother until she died.

Zhou Yu looked at him, a little helpless.

Thinking.

Otherwise, throw him into a mine and let him hang out with Li Yunlong.

Let Li Yunlong conquer him?

But think about it.

Forget it.

He raised his head, looked at Duan Peng, and said, "Didn't you visit your mother these days?"

Duan Peng shook his head and said, "Can I go out?"

Finished.

Duan Peng's stomach growled unsatisfactorily, and even Zhou Yu heard it.

then.

Zhou Yu smiled slightly and asked, "Have you had lunch?"

"without..."

Duan Peng replied.

actually.

Not only did I not eat lunch, I didn't even eat breakfast.

And he, Duan Peng, is a young man in his early twenties. With martial arts training, he has dinner at twelve o'clock and is hungry at twelve thirty.

Once in.

Smelling the aroma of meat all over the house, I was already craving for it.

While talking just now.

His eyes were constantly glancing back and forth at Zhou Yu's untouched lunch.

Duan Peng is not willing to work as a guard for Zhou Yu, and he is not a comrade who works in a factory, so naturally he cannot enjoy the standard of meat and vegetables.

Hear Duan Peng's answer.

Then he noticed that the other party's eyes were always staring at his food, so he turned around and said, "Then you can eat my food!"

"How can this be done? Chief, this is your meal!" Duan Peng was a little embarrassed.

But Zhou Yu pulled him over, sat him down on a chair, and said, "You can eat as much as you want. If I want to eat, am I still missing this portion?"

"Aren't you going to take your mother away?"
Chapter completed!
