The mobilization of all of Shu had been delayed for half a month.
On this afternoon, the citizens of Shu City, who were dressed in different clothes and looked like they were facing the yellow soil or facing the sky, brought their own food and tools. Then, they gathered from all over Shu City to the Wine City.
Duan Gong divided the 270-kilometer highway into 27 small projects, each of which was 10 kilometers long. Finally, they started work at the same time under unified dispatch.
The estimated construction time was 6 to 12 months.
In other words, this highway had to be opened to traffic within a year at most.
What made Liu Zheng feel regretful was that the road in Yunzhou could not be built at the same time.
It was not that Long Deng was unwilling to build the road, but Baldy Jiang was doing his best to limit his power.
Long Deng spoke to Liu Zheng in private, saying that he would use military facilities as an excuse and then secretly send people to help Liu Zheng open up the main arteries between Sichuan and Yunnan.
In Yunzhou, Long Deng was currently building the Yunnan-Myanmar Road in an attempt to open up a channel for international aid from China.
In Liu Zheng's opinion, the advantages of this road outweighed the disadvantages.
After the Yunnan-Myanmar highway, Baldy Jiang could continue to obtain a lot of aid. However, not only could the United States and the Sun Never Sets cut off this life passage at any time, but they could also use this highway to drive straight into the Great Southwest.
If Baldy Jiang couldn't defend it, the Great Southwest region might very well become a colony of the United States and the Sun Never Sets Empire.
In that case, the vast Southeast Asia and the southwest of China would become the backyard of the United States and the Empire of the Sun Never Sets.
At that time, the Japanese invaders could only retreat to North China, East China, and parts of Central China to defend.
Liu Zheng guessed that the strategic intentions of the US and the Sun Never Sets Empire were: "They will use this opportunity to divide China and expand their military strength in the Asian region.”
More and more migrant workers came voluntarily. In the next ten days, a total of 2.8 million migrant workers gathered in the wine city.
There was strength in numbers! The fire blazed when everyone gathered firewood!
These people did not come for a single silver dollar a month. They gathered together because of the same dream: "Let the Sichuan army leave Shu as soon as possible and defeat the Japanese invaders!”
Most of these people had a blood feud with the Japanese invaders. Some of them were refugees, and their families were either killed by the Japanese invaders or kidnapped. Some people had never left Shu Du, but their relatives were killed by Japanese planes. Some people had never seen the Japanese with their own eyes, but every time they heard about the actions of the Japanese invaders, they would always feel inexplicably angry.
After the fall of Jinling, more than 300,000 innocent soldiers and civilians were massacred within a month.
This matter caused a sensation in the international community, and every Chinese citizen who heard about it could not help but cry.
With Duan Gong's overall planning and deployment, according to the road construction plan planned in advance, under the premise that the people were willing to listen to the deployment, the Sichuan-Yunnan Road was built one after another.
That night, the Red Queen took the initiative to remind him,"" Congratulations, Master, for completing the mission. The system has rewarded you with a big gift bag of oil and natural gas. All the rewards have been sent to the system space…"
It was already half past midnight. Because he was too tired, Liu Zheng, who was originally dealing with work, had unknowingly fallen asleep.
"It's done. 2.8 million migrant workers, ordinary faces, and pairs of calloused hands. After the passage, I want to walk to the end of the road…"
Back on Earth, every time he saw the history of the recent wars, Liu Zheng would feel that he was a nationalistic youth.
Now that he was there, even if he had the soul of an adult and had received modern education, Liu Zheng's feelings were even deeper.
He couldn't forget those pairs of eyes filled with anticipation, nor could he forget those unfamiliar faces. Every time he closed his eyes, Liu Zheng would always have this thought in his heart: "It's winter, what are they doing? Were they forced to work as laborers with guns pointed at their heads? Or was it because of that measly one silver dollar salary? No! Not because of this, because they only wanted a glimmer of hope!”
At dawn the next day, Liu Zheng brought a group of 24 overseas returnees back to the marshal's residence.
These people were all bio-humans rewarded by the system. Twelve of them were proficient in oil development and refining technology, and the other twelve were natural gas experts.
The system's super big gift bag was very generous. Take natural gas as an example. Shudu oil field could produce about 8 billion cubic meters of natural gas and 150,000 tons of crude oil every year.
There was not enough crude oil, but the production of natural gas was enough to ensure the safety of the entire southwest.
In the future, Liu Zheng would also transport the natural gas from Shudu and the southwest region to other parts of China. This was also his plan to transport the natural gas from the west to the east.
That morning, Liu Xiang ignored Liu Zheng's obstruction and personally hosted a banquet for these overseas returnees in the marshal's residence.
After learning that there was a large amount of crude oil in Shu City and that the technology was enough to extract and refine it, Liu Xiang was so excited that he cried.
That afternoon, Liu Xiang officially issued an order, saying,""From today onwards, Liu Zheng will take over the position of the commander of the Sichuan Army. He will be fully responsible for governing the size of Shu Capital!”
Liu Zheng didn't hold a ceremony for his promotion because he wanted to hold it on the day the Sichuan-Yunnan highway was completed.
The next day, Liu Xiang, accompanied by Liu Afu, secretly led Xie Zhiguo's division to Changping.
Although Long Deng had promised to be careful, as Baldy Jiang gradually diluted his military power, Yunzhou might be in trouble.
Just in case, Liu Xiang and Liu Zheng had to hold back!
Liu Zheng had given Xie Zhiguo's division 5,000 AK47 assault rifles, 1,000 Black Star pistols, and 600,000 rounds of ammunition.
As for the remaining people, Liu Zheng gave Xie Zhiguo a uniform Mauser rifle.
This division was a very pure infantry division. In the future, it would be equipped with heavy machine guns, an artillery regiment, an engineering regiment, and a field medical team.
After arriving in Changping, due to racial disputes and other issues, Xie Zhiguo's division would definitely have no lack of opportunities to train in actual combat.
Putting this division in the remote mountains, other than being prepared to march into Yunzhou at any time, Liu Zheng wanted to use this opportunity to transform this division into a trump card unit.
