The last leader of the world starts with an elite infantry squad!

"What???"

"Expand the army by 5000!!?"

After hearing Gu Chengyuan's words, Wu Bin was shocked but quickly digested the news.

You have to know that the troops under his command now, including the combined brigade headquarters, the internal guards and the Po Lu Corps, are less than 5000 in number!

As a result, the leader now asks to recruit 5000 soldiers?

Could it be that the provincial military commander really let the chief take the position? ?

So arrogant right after opening your mouth! ! ?

Just like the success guru who asks others to give away hundreds of millions...

"Commander, you said to expand the army by 5000?"

Questions about the troops cannot be taken lightly, so Wu Bin chose to ask again.

"Yes! That means expanding the army by 5000!"

Gu Chengyuan's tone was full of confidence. Ever since he had the idea of ​​becoming the commander of the provincial military region, he felt that his vision had been broadened!

No wonder they say the butt determines the head! The higher you sit, the farther you can see!

As the commander of the provincial military region, is there any problem in planning military forces from the perspective of the entire province?

The first order for expanding the army after becoming the commander of the provincial military region cannot be like the first speech he gave in the cafeteria, where he talked for a long time until his mouth was dry, and made all the survivors excited and they wanted to send out the entire army to fight the zombies!

It was I who came up with the slogan of expanding the army by only 200!

And what was his status at the time? He hadn't even gotten the school completely set up, and he dared to call for an expansion of 200 troops with only a few companies of soldiers!

Now that I am a full-rank army officer, and I am planning from the perspective of the entire province, shouting 5000 is considered restrained!

Moreover, the decision to expand the army by 5000 was not a casual remark by Gu Chengyuan, but was the result of careful consideration and was indeed a practical need!

In Gu Chengyuan's plan, these 5000 troops will be directly added to the internal security forces and the Po Lu Corps!

Let’s talk about the Po Lu Corps first. So far, its positioning is still a second-line force that cooperates with the 1st Combined Brigade to finish off the battle!

What does that mean?

The First Synthetic Brigade is responsible for annihilating the main force of the zombies, while the Po Lu Corps is responsible for clearing out the remaining zombies in each administrative district, building by building and room by room.

Because the firepower configuration of the 1st Combined Brigade would undoubtedly be a huge waste if it were used in the subsequent street fighting and clearing!

Therefore, only the second-level troops, that is, the Po Lu Corps, can carry out the mopping-up work, while conducting low-intensity and high-intensity training at the same time. This arrangement can be said to kill two birds with one stone!

However, as the battle to recapture the Xishui area progressed, the 500st Combined Brigade had to expand its post-war operations. With only people in the Po Lu Corps, it was completely unable to keep up with the pace of the battle.

You know, the subsequent cleanup work is definitely more complicated and more manpower-consuming and time-consuming than a large-scale frontal attack!

According to the real-time battle reports from the front line, with the perfect combination of firepower and fire from the First and Second Combined Battalions, the advancement speed has been very fast as of this afternoon!

Two of each of the five townships and four towns in Xishui District were lost!

It can be said that half of the stream area has been conquered!

And at this time

The Po Lu Corps is still inside Qinghe Town and has not been able to leave. The recovery work is only halfway done...

At this rate of advancement, by the time Gu Chengyuan's troops have begun attacking the night market area, the Po Lu Corps will not have left the rural areas of the Xishui District...

This is not a matter of not keeping up with the pace, this is completely out of touch with the strategy...

Of course, the problem does not lie with the Po Lu Corps itself, but with the strength of the Po Lu Corps.

The speed of subsequent cleanup work is somewhat related to the quality of personnel, but more related to the number of buildings. The more buildings there are, the more time it will take.

Therefore, in order to allow the Po Lu Corps to keep up with the pace, Gu Chengyuan had no choice but to expand the army!

In addition to the Po Lu Corps, the Internal Security Forces also have a strong demand for soldiers...

After this period of gathering survivors, the number of survivors in the Yeda gathering place has reached more than 80,000!

At the same time, thanks to the hard work of all the survivors in the Wanfu gathering place, the first phase of the Yeda defense plan was basically completed yesterday!

A twenty-meter-high and five-meter-wide wall is located at the junction of the West District 1 and the East District where the night school gathers, ready to encircle the area!

Why do we say that the project is basically completed and ready for encirclement?

Because I'm waiting for Gu Chengyuan!

Such an important and meaningful event must be attended by the head of the gathering place, Gu Chengyuan!

It's not that Gu Chengyuan is still engaging in formalism at the end of the world. His main purpose in doing this is to win over the people's hearts!

After all, it was built with an overdraft of 30,000 survivors from the Wanfu Settlement. The moment the first phase of the defense plan was completed, the mission and punishment of the survivors from the Wanfu Settlement had ended!

They have spent so much effort and even their lives on this wall. It would be really disheartening if Gu Chengyuan was unwilling to even show his face when it was completed!

They work day and night like a death sentence, and so many people have died, but their superiors don't seem to care at all and don't even look at them. This really makes them resentful!

It’s like your boss bombards you with messages, urging you to work all night for a week to come up with a plan, but when you hand it in, your boss says to you calmly, “Put it somewhere else, I’ll take a look at it when I have time.”

Anyone would be shocked by this!

Therefore, Gu Chengyuan's appearance was mainly to appease people's hearts and affirm the contributions made by the survivors of the Wanfu settlement to the Yeda settlement!

After all, it involves a labor force of more than 30,000 people, and it is still very worthwhile to operate. It is impossible to just give up!

This month-long exploitative labor has resulted in a lot of bloodshed and many deaths, and it’s time to put an end to it!

So what does this have to do with the internal security expansion?

The connection is the newly built large wall surrounding the night sky, which requires a large number of troops to be stationed there!

According to the design plan and actual needs, the defense wall around Yeda currently only covers two areas, West District 3000 and West District 2, and the protection area of ​​the wall is acres, or square kilometers.

The total length of the wall is 6 kilometers, and every 500 meters there is a team-level fortress integrating living, weapons storage, chemical defense, and internal circulation (modules have not yet been installed)!

By this calculation, at least 12 squads would need to be stationed on the defense wall of the Guangye gathering place, which is equivalent to the strength of an internal security battalion (almost equivalent to an army battalion)!

Once such a high-density defense is in place, the survivors living and working in the gathering place will no longer have to worry about threats from zombies and mutant beasts!

The night university gathering place will become a real safe zone and paradise in this wasteland!

The scene of peace and prosperity inside the wall and zombies and mutant beasts running rampant outside the wall will also become a reality!

In an absolutely safe living environment, the hearts and morale of the people in the gathering place will inevitably reach a new peak!

At the same time, the prestige of Gu Chengyuan and his troops in the hearts of the survivors in the gathering place will be raised again!

The value of Chief Gu Chengyuan is still rising rapidly!
