Chapter 172 Grain Distribution and Prospecting
"Weixian has been captured!" Huang Huamin reported in a timely manner.
Before the battle was over here, the 12 BT-7 tanks of the armored forces that assaulted there had already arrived at the county seat of Weixian, and with one shot, they blasted open the city gate of the small county town, and the soldiers on the 18 trucks accompanying them, with the assistance of the guerrilla brigade that had infiltrated Weixian County early, quickly took control of the county seat. The remaining half of the squadron of devils in the county were powerless to resist and were directly exterminated.
The detachments that marched separately also arrived at the surrounding small counties and towns at the same time, and wiped out the remaining devils in one fell swoop.
"Weixian and its surrounding areas have found 12 enemy reserve granaries, with a total of about 36,000 tons of grain in the accounts!" Rat Er focused on the food mentioned by Meng Xiang earlier. Weixian County is a large grain-producing county, and the number of devils who have been looting for so many days is almost this number.
"Hmmm! Not bad! Meng Xiang was not surprised, he thought of the squinting and smiling fat face of Pharmacist Tang, and thought of the words he had secretly talked to him a long time ago, and saw that it had been realized. The devil's looting everywhere has become the wedding dress of the vanguard army.
"Leave 6,000 tons to distribute to the surrounding poor households, and let them have a good year!" Meng Xiang looked at the night outside, feeling a little guilty in his heart, these grains were originally theirs, and he was just carrying out "redistribution".
The sound of firecrackers sounded outside, and another victory of the vanguard army made the people even happier.
"It's the New Year!" Meng Xiang said with emotion that it has been half a year since he came to this time and space. In the first Spring Festival of this time and space, there was no party, no reunion with parents and family members eating dumplings. I was alone listening to the undulating sound of firecrackers outside.
Thinking of the voices and smiles of his parents and family, his tears couldn't help but roll down his cheeks silently.
"His grandmother's, why am I crying? It's the first time in so many years! Meng Xiang wiped his tears and forced a smile.
Meng Xiang drove away all the people, and even Rat Er was arranged out by him, leaving him alone in the command center, waiting until the bell rang at twelve o'clock.
"Little flower, have a good New Year!" The old-fashioned table clock had just rang, and Meng Xiang muttered in a low voice.
"The vanguard army has divided the food at the four main city gates! Three pounds per person! As soon as the morning dawned, Zhang Ergou shouted while walking on the streets of Weixian. Behind him was a group of children, one person with three copper plates, who also shouted around. Meng Xiang's proposal to distribute to difficult households, the number of people could not be counted specifically, and the personnel arrangement was insufficient, so Huang Huamin directly changed it to distribute grain at the city gate, three catties per person, which inevitably had some omissions, but the name of the vanguard army rose all of a sudden.
"Old man, do you hear me? There is a share of food! Xu Laodun's wife shouted at him.
"Shhhh This is a robbery of the devil, and the devil will kill the head when he comes in the future! Xu Laodun glared at him and whispered.
"You bear-like! What's so scary about little devils? Didn't you also be killed by the vanguard army yesterday? Go to get food, it's not our family, everyone else goes, can't the devil kill everyone? Why did I find such a wreck as you? If you don't go, I'll go myself! The temptation of three pounds of food for one person made her rush to the city gate despite her inability to move to the city gate.
"I'll go, can't I go together!" Xu Laodun hurriedly stopped her and said.
"Bring the dog and Dani, Xiaoni! People don't count men and women, young and old, just by head! Xu Laodun's mother-in-law instructed loudly again.
"Is this it?" Xie Jiarong pointed to a bare hillside, but the floating soil on it was reddish-brown. Just after the Spring Festival, on the first day of the Lunar New Year, he heard that another mineral vein had been discovered, so he impatiently led the two students who discovered the mineral vein to rush over.
Guo Lingzhi and Zhao Jian jumped out of the Type 82 barrel car specially allocated to them by the vanguard army, looked around and said in unison: "This is it!" ”
"Yes, there are traces of mines here! Let's go up and have a look, and take a closer look! Xie Jiarong said as he began to climb the mountain, even though the 82-barrel truck had a very good climbing ability, but they did not come to climb the mountain, but to look for minerals.
Although the mining vehicle can also find mineral resources within the direct jurisdiction of the base, the accurate prospecting range of the second-level mining vehicle is only ten meters around, although it is much better than the one-meter blind collision at the first level, but it still cannot meet the needs of large-scale mining area. At that time, if Meng Xiang was not familiar with the surrounding terrain, and those mining sites had been discovered in advance, Meng Xiang would have been busy just looking for ore.
Moreover, there are many places where the secondary mining vehicle cannot go, or places that are not suitable to go, and the role of people is highlighted at this time.
Since feeling that there was a shortage of talents, Meng Xiang ordered Rat Er to specially establish a talent information database to collect talents from all aspects.
When he saw the name of Xie Jiarong who ran to his own territory, he remembered a post in later generations. In later generations, Xie Jiarong, as one of the pioneers and main founders of mineral deposit science in China and one of the main founders of geological science, has become a person who has been deliberately forgotten. But his achievements are not inferior to Li Siguang's, especially in the discovery of Daqing oil. It's just that Xie Jiarong is too nerdy, and in the end he can only become a tragic symbol.
Seeing the name of this Xie Jiarong, and seeing the introduction of a long list of honors in the geological academic community behind him, Meng Xiang was sure that it was this Xie Jiarong.
The three of them were busy looking for most of the day, feeling their stomachs gurgling, and they were a little dazzled with hunger. At Xie Jiarong's suggestion, he walked down the hill with the ore specimen on his back. Because it is more convenient to have a car, some of their daily necessities are put in the car.
"I said no one would steal it! The people of this place are very good, they don't easily move people's things, and besides, they don't have keys! Guo Lingzhi shook the key in his hand. Xie Jiarong smiled and said nothing, although he was a little nerdy, but those who were engaged in geology had seen a lot of all kinds of things, not to mention this barrel car, no matter how big the truck was, he had also seen it carried away by a hundred and ten people.
Zhao Jian looked at the bunch of keys, leaned over and smiled: "Go back and let me give it a try!" ”
"No! You're just starting out, what if something happens? Then we'll all be left in the mountains. When I go back, I'll let you open it again! Guo Lingzhi decisively refused, the last time Zhao Jian volunteered to drive made everyone break out in a cold sweat, if he hadn't braked in time, I was afraid that the car would fly into the river.
"With these points of our exploration, plus the few places we inspected a few days ago, it can almost be concluded that there are large-scale iron ore resources here, plus the coal mine veins in Baligou and Panxi and other places that we have detected, it is no problem to use these resources to build a steel plant here! Laiwu used to be an iron-smelting camp! Xie Jiarong took a bite of nutritious food and sighed, "We have run so many places in the past few days, thanks to the credit of this car!" ”
He used to go over mountains and mountains to explore, but he couldn't run a few places a day, but with this car, he ran such a large area in a few days.
Guo Lingzhi patted the solid 82-type barrel car next to him, and said with a smile: "With this car, it's so convenient!" "Although Tse Ka Wing can drive a little, most of the time he is driving, and the car is very agile and durable. It's much better than all kinds of cars on the market.
"I've never seen this kind of car before, where did the Vanguard get it?" Guo Lingzhi looked at the barrel car and kept guessing.
At this time, Xie Jiarong sighed in his heart while eating a nutritious meal that he didn't have time to withdraw after the fall of Beiping, but he was blocked by himself. He flatly rejected his request for appointment, received news from Weng Wenhao, and tried to escape, but was hindered by the battle in Nanjing, and suspended at Jinan Qilu University for a while. In the end, he received an invitation from the vanguard army, and he hesitated for a long time, but finally agreed.
When he met Zhu Kezhen and also saw the luxury laboratory of the Vanguard Army, although Zhu Kezhen did not reveal what they were doing, he still decided to stay without hesitation.
With the strong support of the vanguard army, the conditions are much better than before, there are vehicles for transportation, professional tents and sleeping bags, convenient and fast nutritious meals, and advanced detection instruments to carry with you.
"The Vanguard has won the battle again!" Zhao Jian, who was listening to the radio, couldn't help but shout loudly. After a few days of recruit training, he was transferred out because he had studied minerals. This made him very depressed, but the fact that he was allowed to carry a gun in the field still made him feel a little comforted.
"Great! Another wing of annihilation! Another Union flag captured! Guo Lingzhi also jumped up excitedly. Guo Lingzhi, who came to join the Pioneer Army with his classmates from National Central University before he graduated, was selected to join the geological exploration team as soon as he came. I heard that after this exploration, it was only after military training. He was more depressed than Zhao Jian, and in exchange, he taught Zhao Jian how to drive, and Zhao Jian allowed him to practice marksmanship with the Luger pistol first.
"A few days ago, some people made irresponsible remarks, saying that the vanguard army did not resist and let the devils go south, but now, the vanguard army has another beautiful annihilation war, and it has also rescued a large number of people! Those scathing-mouthed villains should have nothing to say! Zhao Jian waved his fist excitedly.
According to the investigation, a total of 2,675 people were expelled by the Emperor, most of whom were women, the elderly, and children. In the process of releasing poison gas, 46 people died, and 25 people were unfortunately hit by stray bullets and died! A sweet female voice came over the radio.
"Zhao Lin, this is Zhao Lin!" Guo Lingzhi also shouted in surprise.
(Third watch at 10 p.m.) )
