Chapter 533 Dual-Purpose Line of Defense
Davis arrived in China a few days later with the transport plane delivering supplies.

After several twists and turns, the third brother first arrived... At this time, the Chinese Expeditionary Force had already rushed to Burma to defend the Burma Road with the British Army, and the Empire on which the Sun Never Sets was tired of dealing with Rommel on the African battlefield and had no time to take care of it. He can only rely on Ying Jiang to preside over the overall situation at San Ge.

Then I took a plane from San Ge to Chongqing, then transferred to Xi'an, and finally arrived in Yuncheng.

Sun Erwei had informed Wang Xuexin in advance that Yingjiang would send someone.

Wang Xuexin was still surprised by this, and asked Sun Erwei: "You have enough people in China, don't you? With Skinner's research and development team, and you, a 'reporter', do you need to send others?"

Sun Erwei explained: "It's like this, because we know that you have air defense needs recently, and will send a batch of air defense equipment here in the near future, so of course we need to send some consultants to help you familiarize yourself with the equipment!"

Wang Xuexin said "oh", feeling a little strange in his heart, actually he didn't need any consultants when he bought those anti-aircraft guns, because they were basically used as fixed forts, as long as he could fire guns, he would be fine.

What's more, the anti-aircraft guns are similar in use. Mao Xiong's anti-aircraft guns can use Yingjiang's anti-aircraft guns, and of course they can also use them.

But after thinking about it, if you want to send it, you can send it. There is no harm in having a few more consultants to give advice. The conditions in the base area are difficult and life-threatening at any time, so it is good if they are willing to come.

It was only later that Wang Xuexin found out that Sun Erwei had actually described the investigation as helping the Eighth Route Army.

After Yingjiang came to an end, Wang Xuexin turned his attention to the defense line of Zhongtiao Mountain.

There was nothing to care about the defense line of Zhongtiao Mountain, it only needed to be built according to the defense line built by the recalcitrant army.

But Li Yunlong thinks this is not enough.

Li Yunlong found Wang Xuexin that day, and said to Wang Xuexin with a solemn expression: "Little Northeast, although others say that there is no safety problem in the middle mountain defense line, everyone is grinning happily, but I just don't feel at ease in my heart!"

Wang Xuexin nodded, he actually felt the same way.

Then Li Yunlong said to the map: "Look at this Zhongtiao Mountain, although it is more than 100 kilometers long, it is only a dozen kilometers wide, and the narrowest point is less than ten kilometers, and there are several divisions of devils in the south! Although these divisions are confronting the recalcitrant army in the Yellow River, who knows if they will stab us in the back?"

This is indeed a problem with the Zhongtiao Mountain defense line at this time.

All the fortifications on the Zhongtiao Mountain defense line are facing north, but the devils are in the south.

If the devils make a surprise attack from the rear, does that mean that all the fortifications are useless?
One thing the Eighth Route Army can rely on is that the devils are not good at fighting in mountainous areas... But it’s not that they are not good at fighting in mountainous areas. Stronger than the Eighth Route Army.

Wang Xuexin has also considered this issue, but if he wants to defend against the devils in the south at the same time, it means that the Eighth Route Army will have to build two lines of defense at the same time on Zhongtiao Mountain. This is a line of defense of more than 100 kilometers. Anti-both sides...

Wang Xuexin thought for a while and said, "Commander, I think this problem is easy to handle. We just need to modify the fortification a little bit!"

"What do you mean?" Li Yunlong was a little puzzled.

Pointing to the map, Wang Xuexin explained: "Look, commander, the defensive lines built by the recalcitrant army are all on the front slope. The bunkers, trenches, etc. are all facing north. What we need more is the reverse slope..."

Li Yunlong said "Oh": "You mean, let's change this line of defense into a positive and negative one?"

"That's what it means!" Wang Xuexin nodded and said: "If the devils come from the north, we will fight them with the tactics of the stubborn army. If the devils come from the south, we will fight them with our own tactics on the reverse slope. It's not that hard to make a backslope, just a few minor changes are needed!"

Li Yunlong was stunned for a moment, and then laughed "hehehe": "That's reasonable, we can use sandbags to pile up the door behind the bunker to make perforations, repair the trenches, and you can see the enemy in the opposite direction to ensure a good line of sight , In addition, one side is higher and the other is lower, which is the same as the reverse slope fortification, so it is dual-purpose, a good idea!"

"Then dig some tunnels!" Wang Xuexin added: "Although the stubborn army's dormitory is comfortable to live in, it is inconvenient to fight with too concentrated troops! Then, barbed wire, landmines, etc. will be laid on the south side, and it will not matter where the devils come from." Don't be afraid!"

"Yes, yes, yes!" Li Yunlong praised: "You still have a way, and I will talk to the chief about this matter later!"

This is actually thanks to the tenacious army. They have been stationed in Zhongtiao Mountain for so many years.

In fact, it was not just built on Zhongtiao Mountain, but the line of defense extended to the north bank of the Yellow River, that is, there was a line of defense every two or three kilometers during the fifty kilometers.

The stubborn army dare not be ambiguous in this regard, after all, it is used to save lives.

It's just a pity that no matter how good the defense line is, no matter how favorable the terrain... the troops stationed without morale are useless.

"By the way, Little Northeast!" Li Yunlong remembered something when he was about to leave, and asked back: "How is the purchase of anti-aircraft guns at Yingjiang's side? I heard that it will cost more than 200 million US dollars, darling... enough money not enough?"

The transaction between Wang Xuexin and Yingjiang has been reported all the time. After all, it is a matter of the army, and what to buy needs to be discussed and approved by the superiors, not what Wang Xuexin says he wants.

But it's about the same.

If there were objections or doubts about Wang Xuexin before, but since buying a few production lines from Yingjiang and buying tanks from Maoxiong, no one has any objections to Wang Xuexin.

The chief said to the chief of staff: "If it weren't for Xiaobei, we would have nothing! Now that we can make guns and tanks, what more can we ask for! Just let Xiaobei do it. He knows how to buy What a deal, you can’t go wrong!”

Therefore, Wang Xuexin's report was just a matter of situation. At this time, it was delayed for a few days because of the affairs in the camp. Wang Xuexin forgot for a while.

At this time Li Yunlong asked, Wang Xuexin replied: "Enough! Yingjiang gave us free!"

"What?" Li Yunlong suspected that he had heard it wrong. He widened his eyes and asked again: "You...what did you say?"

"It's free!" Wang Xuexin replied, "No money!"

"Waiting..." Li Yunlong still didn't believe it: "This is two... more than 200 million, or US dollars. How can I say it's free? Will there be a problem?"

This is Li Yunlong's habitual thinking developed by walking in the rivers and lakes. All good things that fall from the sky must be deceitful.
