"Zhanjiang Arsenal?"

Just as Lu Chong was visiting the arsenal construction on site, Gu Chengyuan, who was far away in the night market of Yezhou Province, also saw a mid-term report on the development of the military industry in Zhanjiang District on his way to the university town in Xishui District.

Zhou Guihong, who was sitting in the passenger seat, heard Gu Chengyuan muttering and quickly turned around to explain:

"Yes, Commander. This is the report that the Military Control Commission leadership team just sent this morning. I took your health into consideration, so I took the initiative to not give it to you right away, fearing that it would disturb your breakfast."

Hearing this, Gu Chengyuan's tone suddenly became a little stern and he said, "Next time this happens, no matter what I'm doing, just hand it over!"

"Yes!"

Hearing the displeasure in Gu Chengyuan's tone, Zhou Guihong nodded repeatedly and dared not say much.

The reason for the sudden outburst was not that Gu Chengyuan was ungrateful. He understood Zhou Guihong's good intentions, but he valued the smooth flow of information transmission channels more!

If the information exchange between him and lower-level departments is compared to a highway, then Zhou Guihong's current behavior is equivalent to setting up checkpoints on this highway, and he is setting up checkpoints based on his own understanding and standards.

This is absolutely something that no normal leader would allow!

Take the last years of the Ming Dynasty as an example. Why did Emperor Chongzhen always use his power in the wrong way? He didn't withdraw the troops that should have been withdrawn, and he withdrew the troops that shouldn't have been withdrawn...

The reason is that his information acquisition path was artificially cut off!

The people around him wrapped him like an information cocoon, and everything he heard and saw was filtered and processed.

In this case, making the right decision is naturally as difficult as ascending to heaven!

Although it is impossible for system warriors to deliberately deceive him because of their 100% loyalty, the same thing applies: absolute loyalty does not mean absolute correctness.

As long as one is a human being, he or she will have limitations and biases, and the same is true for system warriors.

A loud drum does not need a heavy hammer. Gu Chengyuan knew that Zhou Guihong was a smart person, so he just tapped it lightly. He did not continue to investigate the matter, but picked up the report and read it carefully.

"After completion, will it produce 100 million bullets per day? 5000 artillery shells? 1000 guns of various types..."

hiss~

Seeing this, Gu Chengyuan couldn't help but take a deep breath:

"This week's production capacity is enough to arm an infantry brigade of about 5000 people, right? And there will be some surplus for reserve?"

Looking at the production capacity described in the report, Gu Chengyuan expressed almost the same emotion as Lu Chong. At the same time, this also reminded him of the 1411 General Factory in Guanshan District, Yeshi, which belongs to Zhou Bang Weapon Group.

The daily output of bullets is also 100 million, and the daily output of artillery shells has even reached an astonishing 5, which is ten times higher than that of the Zhanjiang Arsenal under construction!

Unfortunately, Guanshan District belongs to the core area of ​​the night market. To move Guanshan District is equivalent to moving the entire night market. With the strategic focus shifting northward, the time to retake it is not yet ripe, otherwise Gu Chengyuan would have been unable to hold back and would have taken it down long ago!

But it won’t take long, Gu Chengyuan is just waiting now!

After a while, when the battle to retake Jiangjin District is successfully concluded and a defense line is established along the south bank of the Yangtze River, Zhanjiang and Jiangjin districts will completely become safe and stable military industrial production areas!

At that time, Gu Chengyuan could withdraw the front-line troops and turn back to concentrate his forces to attack the night market!

Eat one meal at a time and walk one step at a time. Whether you are an ordinary person or a leader, you must have strong strategic determination!

"It seems that the third round of conscription needs to be put on the agenda!"

"The first round is 1, the second round is 2, and for the third round, we'll plan to recruit soldiers!" Thinking of this, Gu Chengyuan quickly decided on the number of soldiers to be recruited for the third round.

"There aren't that many jobs available right now anyway. Instead of wasting their time doing nothing or being idle, it's better to send them directly to the army and start military skills training in advance!"

"On the one hand, this will reduce the number of unemployed survivors in the apocalypse, alleviate public security pressure and crime, and on the other hand, it will also help improve the combat effectiveness of the troops!"

Anyone who has served in the military knows that the comprehensive combat effectiveness of soldiers who have undergone complete training and soldiers who have not undergone complete training are at two completely different levels.

Objectively speaking, the level of the two batches of soldiers in the first and second rounds of conscription is just at the level of filling in the gaps.

It's okay to rely on the firepower advantage to bully the unarmed zombies in a group, but if you really encounter a battle of a certain intensity, there is a high probability that you will not be able to withstand it.

But there is no way around it. After all, the situation and the end of the world do not wait for anyone!

Therefore, it was precisely because of this lesson, and with the confidence of the arsenal, that Gu Chengyuan thought of being more radical and directly started the third round of conscription!

You know, in this case, the number of the survivors' army will be close to 100,000, which is equivalent to one-tenth of the troops under his rule.

This ratio can be regarded as absolute warmongering in all dynasties!

..

"Gui Hong!"

"To the chief!"

"Please remember that for the third round of conscription, we plan to recruit 4 soldiers. Submit it to the General Staff when you return and have them come up with a plan as soon as possible!"

"Yes!" After hearing the news of the third round of conscription, Zhou Guihong showed no expression and perfectly acted as an emotionless recording machine.

In just a moment, he had figured out why the leader suddenly had an attack.

After figuring out the key, Zhou Guihong was almost scared to death. At the same time, she secretly reflected on whether the leader had smiled too much recently and she had become too proud. Otherwise, how could she dare to make decisions for the leader?

However, Gu Chengyuan did not pay attention to Zhou Guihong's small change. His orders continued: "At the same time, send a telegram to Lu Chong in Zhanjiang District, telling him to start mobilizing troops and prepare for the battle to retake Jiangjin District!"

"Once we are ready, we can directly launch the recovery operation on Jiangjin District. We are running out of time, so we should try not to delay as much as possible!"

"correct!"

"How are the supplies for the battle to retake Jiangjin District being prepared?" Speaking of the battle, Gu Chengyuan then thought of the logistics issue.

"Report to the commander-in-chief. Up to now, we have transported about 1000 tons of combat supplies to Zhanjiang District through road and rail transportation!"

"Once the battle begins, these 1000 tons of combat supplies are expected to support the six brigade-level troops of the Zhanjiang Military Sub-district in conducting high-intensity combat for about three days!"

According to estimates, if a brigade-level force of 5000 people wants to maintain a day of high-intensity combat, the material consumption must be at least around 50 tons. Taking into account the changes in the battlefield situation, this number is generally no more than that!

This is just a second-rate unit with simple equipment like the Yezhou Infantry Brigade. If it is replaced with a heavy-armored combined brigade or a medium-sized combined brigade, the consumption of combat supplies will definitely be close to an average of 100 tons per day!

And through the system, combat supplies, various types of ammunition, military rations, medicines, etc. are exchanged; on average, the ratio is about 500 gold coins for 1 ton!

In other words, in order to prepare these 1000 tons of combat supplies, Gu Chengyuan spent about 50 system money on logistics alone!

However, although the consumption is huge, if it can be recovered, Gu Chengyuan will gain even greater!

Nearly 700 million gold coins + a strong industrial zone, it's a huge profit!

The reason why he was able to make money was entirely due to Gu Chengyuan's cheat!

This allows him to easily fight to support himself. Otherwise, relying solely on the current production capacity, after fighting a large-scale battle, let alone being able to withstand the consumption, even if he could, he would probably be unable to recover for a long time.

War is all about logistics. With such horrific consumption, it is not difficult to understand why the 77th Corps has been dormant since the end of the world and has not carried out any major military actions except the battle to recapture Beibei District.

After all, they don’t have a war system, and the bullets and shells consumed on the battlefield require a lot of time to slowly produce!
