Set Off
However, no one cared about Chen Da Mazi's mood at this time. Since he was willing to hang himself, he would hang himself first. It was still daytime, and he would not freeze to death anyway.
As for why they didn't kill him directly after confirming that he was a bandit, of course, there were other reasons. After that, they would capture all these heinous bandits and put them together for a public trial. It was also their last use.
Zhang Yu watched as the soldiers tidied up the camp. This camp wasn't considered a good location, but it was still acceptable as a temporary base. As for whose land he had occupied, he could make up for it later.
Moreover, this piece of land was actually a wasteland at the moment. It might not be easy to find the original owner.
The efficiency of the soldiers was very high. In one afternoon, a large area of land was leveled. For the time being, they made some wooden clips and sandbags to make some simple positions. Further inside were ordinary military tents. It wouldn't be too late to build them slowly later.
Finally, when it was almost dark, Li Yun Long, who was in charge of interrogating those guys, came to Zhang Yu and said,""Commander, we have gathered all the information. They are bandits from the Black Wind Mountain 40 miles to the south. We asked the villagers nearby and compared it with the information given by the bandits. We can roughly confirm that there are more than 300 bandits on the Black Wind Mountain, and their weapons and equipment are also very old. Commander, why don't I bring some people to kill them tonight?”
Looking at Li Yun Long's anxious expression, Zhang Yu asked in confusion,""What's going on? Why are you suddenly so anxious? Couldn't he wait until dawn to make his plans? It was snowing in the mountains now, so it was not easy to walk at night.”
"Don't worry, Commander. Our soldiers are definitely strong enough to fight at night. Moreover, we don't need to bring too many people. If we set off now, we can destroy Black Wind Mountain tonight. We can't give those guys too much time to react! And the reason why I'm in such a hurry is because this Black Wind Mountain is a real bandit stronghold. They've been entrenched in this generation for six years and have committed all kinds of crimes. I'm afraid that these guys will leak the news and let them escape again.”Li Yunlong explained.
After hearing this, Zhang Yu understood that this was probably the thinking of a professional soldier. From a tactical point of view, no matter how cautious the bandits on Black Wind Mountain were, they would not expect someone to raid their nest tonight.
"If that's the case, then you should take the Reconnaissance Union and the First Company with you. Try not to let a single bandit escape. Right, we have to reduce the casualties of the soldiers as much as possible. We can't afford to lose this foundation now.”Zhang Yu nodded and said.
"Yes, I promise to complete the mission!" Li Yunlong replied loudly.
"First Company and Recon Company, assemble immediately. Prepare two days 'worth of rations. Everyone, bring enough ammunition and prepare for battle!”After getting Zhang Yu's approval, Li Yun Long immediately went to gather the soldiers of the two companies.
A few bandits who had just been put down not far away were also surprised and secretly happy when they heard Li Yunlong's shout.
In their opinion, it was almost impossible to march 40 miles in such a night and then enter the battle. In addition to the cold weather, it was almost impossible in their opinion.
He was secretly happy because there were only two companies of 400 soldiers. Although the number of people in the village was similar to this number, it was even slightly insufficient.
However, based on their confidence in their " brothers ", Chen Damazi and the others felt that it was impossible for these people to win, at least this time.
However, these bandits in the mountains did not know how powerful this army was. The cold-resistant clothing they were wearing allowed them to move normally in an environment of-20 degrees Celsius.
As for a 40-mile journey in a night, it was nothing to these soldiers. For the elite Chinese army in the 21st century, walking 20 kilometers on armed cross-country and then entering the battle was just a basic operation.
After all, the predecessor of this unit had made a record of advancing 70 kilometers on the battlefield in 14 hours (the Battle of Samsui in North Korea). This was almost a record for infantry combat speed.
Because even if it was a mechanized army, due to the influence of logistics and other things, even if the road conditions were good. The daily marching distance would not exceed 70 kilometers (the advancing speed of the US army during the Gulf War in 1991). Of course, this was in the case of border battles.
Therefore, in the eyes of the bandits of this era, it was basically impossible to launch an attack from a distance of 40 to 50 miles in one night.
However, Li Yun Long didn't think too much about it. Instead, he led hundreds of people and ran towards the forest in the south.
The soldiers brought two days 'worth of dry rations and enough ammunition for a battle. These things were enough to deal with the bandits this time.
Just like that, figures in green military uniforms slowly disappeared into the southern forest.
After these soldiers left, the soldiers who remained continued their work. They knocked down the wooden stakes one by one, and the outline of the entire camp was slowly formed.
The efficiency of the soldiers was still very high. However, there were no engineers in the regimental configuration. Otherwise, their speed would be even faster.
"Tomorrow, let them try to recruit some people from the village. However, they still had to go for training, not work as construction workers all day.”Zhang Yu continued to work for a while and thought with some emotion.
After dark, the soldiers temporarily stopped their work for the day. After dinner, they would learn some theoretical knowledge and sing songs.
The remaining soldiers also went to sleep. Although they didn't understand where they came from, Zhang Yu himself understood some things.
These people who had just come to this world today were actually no different from him.
If not for the fact that he was worried about the little girl, Zhang Yu would have wanted to spend the night here.
While the soldiers were having their night activities, Zhang Yu quietly called Zhao Gang over.
To be honest, Zhang Yu still attached great importance to the only scholar under him.
"How is the proposal I gave you today? Do you have any thoughts after reading it?”Inside a tent, Zhang Yu said to Zhao Gang who had just entered.
"Commander, the plan is very good, but it's a little too idealistic. The things are also a little complicated. I've never done such a job before, so there might be some mistakes.”Zhao Gang said sincerely.
After Zhang Yu heard this, he pondered for a moment before saying,""Since that's the case, then let's take it slow. We'll first settle the problems of gathering villages and merging villages and clans. We're going to take the path of encircling the city from the countryside, so we can't avoid these two problems no matter what. Also, he would recruit some workers from the village to work tomorrow. It was the slack season now, so it would be a good opportunity to generate some income for them. The salary should be as generous as possible, but don't mess up the economy!”
After Zhao Gang heard Zhang Yu's words, he also nodded his head. He understood the logic behind it.
