Super Dictator

Chapter 31 The whimsical Wei Shao

After Wei Jichen walked out of the camp, he was thinking about building fortifications.

No one had come up with any feasible solution just now, and Wei Jichen naturally couldn't think of any good solution at the moment. Without tools, everything would be in vain.

It would be better to do some on-the-spot investigation, Wei Jichen thought to himself.

This is a relatively small hilltop, located on the left front of the road below. If the Japanese want to pass through the road below, they must conquer this hilltop first. Otherwise, Wei Jichen and others can take advantage of the mountain and keep shooting down. In this way, the Japanese must have suffered heavy losses.

When Wei Jichen arrived, the top of the mountain was already in flames. Mengzi and Huzi wielded the only two shovels in the whole post, shoveling the soil down hard and digging tunnels.

The other soldiers had no choice but to use their bayonets to dig a small hole underneath, and then slowly expand it. The speed was naturally pitiful compared to a shovel.

"Wei Shao, you're here." Li Yunfei came up and said.

"Yeah, how are you doing, brothers?" Wei Jichen asked softly.

Li Yunfei had a bitter look on his face and said helplessly: "You have also seen what this is all about. It is estimated that we will not be able to build half of the fortifications until the Japanese arrive."

Wei Jichen sighed and said, "If we can't fix it, we have to fix it, otherwise the lives of our brothers will be sacrificed. Let's go, I, Wei Jichen, will go into battle myself, and we will dig together with our good brothers."

Li Yunfei was a little stunned. He didn't react until Wei Jichen walked to Xiao Si and squatted down.

Xiao Si couldn't change his sneaky and slippery personality. Every time he dug deep, he would take a breath.

Wei Jichen suddenly walked up to him, and he couldn't help but be startled, and said in a loud voice: "Wei Shao, I just stopped."

Wei Jichen waved his hand and said, "I'm here to dig with you."

After he finished speaking, he ignored him. Instead, he bent down, stabbed the bottom with his bayonet, loosened the soil with all his strength, and then planed the soil aside with his hands.

"Look, Wei Shao has also come to build fortifications."

"Yeah, I really didn't expect that. When he was riding a horse earlier, I thought he was a commander with eyes and a head. I didn't expect that he would suffer with us."

"Yeah. Let's dig faster, so we don't get caught up by Wei Shao."

When the surrounding soldiers saw Wei Jichen's movements, they all talked in low voices. For a moment, the scene became more heated. Everyone added a lot of strength out of nowhere and worked very energetically.

Only Wei Jichen complained secretly in his heart. After digging several times, he felt waves of pain coming from his fingertips.

It's really a shameful thing, it's your own fault.

However, as soon as he saw Xiaosi's admiring eyes and saw the morale of the Yongzi Camp outpost in the military system soaring from 50 to 55, Wei Jichen put a faint smile on his face and continued to lower his head and work hard. .

Army System: The Provisional Prisoner Army has long been gone and has become an outpost of the Yongzi Camp.

Number of people: 140 people.

Morale: 55100.

Wei Jichen's sentry force was completely over-subscribed, but with Nie Shicheng's personal concern, no one would talk much.

An hour later, Wei Jichen looked at the hole he dug with satisfaction. How beautiful and deep it was. This hole will never be filled, Wei Jichen thought to himself.

Crash, Wei Jichen was startled. It turned out that the gravel next to the trench began to swish and fall straight down. I spent most of the day working on it. Wei Jichen wanted to cry but had no tears.

Xiaosi said cautiously from the side: "Wei Shao, the top of this hill is full of gravel. The pit dug is not reliable. Moreover, when the Japanese bomb drops, the gravel will fly and become a murderous weapon that can kill people."

Wei Jichen got angry and threw his bayonet on a pile of dirt. I dug for a long time to find a place to bury myself.

Apparently, it wasn't just Wei Jichen who had an accident. Cursing sounds could be heard from time to time on the hilltop.

Even if the trench was dug, how useful it would be, Wei Jichen couldn't help but sigh to himself, but he had to dig it.

"Wei Shao, here, drink some water before you do it." Xiao Si bowed his waist, trotted to Wei Jichen's side with a flattering look on his face, and gently handed over the kettle.

Wei Jichen happened to be a little thirsty, so he picked up the kettle, raised his head, and poured it into his mouth.

Hey, this!

One drop, two drops, cold water droplets slowly rolled from the kettle into Wei Jichen's mouth.

Xiao Si next to him slapped his head and said timidly: "Wei Shao, look at my memory. This water has been sitting for a few hours, but unexpectedly it has frozen. I will go and boil a pot of boiling water for Wei Shao." "

Freeze! A flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in Wei Jichen's mind, but when he tried his best to catch it, the inspiration turned into a flu, and he didn't know where it went.

"Wait!" Wei Jichen couldn't help shouting when he saw Xiao Si moving forward to catch the kettle with both hands, which made Xiao Si tremble involuntarily.

"Wei Shao!"

"Stop talking, what did you just say?" Wei Jichen asked in an unprecedented serious manner.

Xiaosi took a step back timidly and said cautiously: "My subordinate just told me to boil the kettle given to you."

"Yes, yes, it's water!" Wei Jichen stepped forward with a surprised look on his face and patted Xiaosi's shoulder hard, saying happily: "Xiaosi, you have made great achievements again this time. It seems that you are really my lucky general. ah."

Xiao Si was slapped by Wei Jichen so much that he almost flashed his waist. He stood there looking at Wei Jichen resentfully while gently rubbing his shoulders.

I am your lucky general, but you, the old man, are Xiaosi’s Prince of Hell, coming to remind you every day.

"Everyone stop, come here, come here." Wei Jichen ignored Xiao Si's resentful gaze and shouted loudly to everyone around him.

When the surrounding soldiers heard the order, they all came over with blank faces to see what tricks the sentry was going to play.

"Did you see? The water is frozen, the water is frozen." Wei Jichen smiled so much that the corner of his mouth reached his ears, pointing to the kettle in his hand.

"So what if the water freezes, this sentry officer is not crazy." Most of the soldiers thought in their hearts.

Wei Jichen looked at the incomprehensible eyes around him and said with hatred: "Why can't you move your heads? We just need to pour the water on the trench, and it won't take long for a solid ice wall to be formed." ah."

Some of the smart soldiers' eyes lit up. Why didn't we expect that this sentry officer was really amazing?

"That's a good idea!" Li Yunfei clenched one hand into a fist and struck the other palm, saying loudly: "Wei Shao, I'm going to borrow some water-holding tools from the cook to try."

To be honest, Wei Jichen was not very sure whether this idea would work. He remembered that there seemed to be such a period in the Three Kingdoms, but others were watering at night, and the weather was colder at that time.

Wei Jichen breathed a sigh of relief, and a cloud of white mist immediately formed. It seemed that the winter in the Northeast must have been below zero. There should be no problem with freezing. If there is a problem, water it again at night.

Not long after, Li Yunfei came over carefully carrying a large pot. What was in the pot was not food, but cold water that had just flowed from the pool.

Everyone opened their eyes and watched Li Yunfei's movements carefully, with some anticipation and curiosity.

As soon as Li Yunfei reached the trench, he couldn't wait to tilt the cauldron. The water slowly seeped into the mud and stone, and then slowly froze the entire ground.

"It's done!" Li Yunfei shouted as he threw away the disaster, then turned around and hugged Wei Jichen, shouting: "Wei Shao, you are really amazing."

Other soldiers also jumped up, high-fived each other, hugged each other, and were overjoyed.

The cook who followed Li Yunfei reluctantly picked up the cauldron and wiped it carefully. This was the guy they were eating from.

"Okay, okay, Yunfei, I believe the effect will be better at night." Wei Jichen was strangled so hard that he almost died, and said hurriedly with a red face.

Li Yunfei put Wei Jichen down embarrassedly, and instantly returned to his gentle and elegant appearance. Oh my god, the face changing speed is much faster than Sichuan's face changing technique. I, Wei Jichen, can't match it.

The surrounding soldiers looked at Wei Jichen with admiration. This sentry officer was really brave and resourceful.

"Okay, brothers, now that we have solved the problem of broken stones, we have to dig quickly. At this time tomorrow, this place will become an indestructible trench." Wei Jichen was finally able to take the opportunity to put down his hard work. During the digging work, he took his own small steps, pointing while walking.

"Well, we still need to dig deeper here."

"Well, the excavated soil cannot be wasted. If it is built up and then watered, the trench will be much deeper."

Wei Jichen walked to the trench dug by Huzi and Mengzi. This section was beginning to take shape.

Almost chest deep, the sergeant could place his rifle on top of the trench and aim down.

"Why didn't you dig individual soldier pits and air-raid shelters?" Wei Jichen frowned slightly. When he saw that Mengzi and Huzi had dug almost the same amount, they extended to both sides and did not dig a few individual soldier air-raid shelters here.

"Single soldier pit, air-raid shelter?" Mengzi looked at Wei Jichen with some confusion, and said blankly: "Wei Shao, we used to dig like this."

It turns out that the Qing army in this era has not yet learned how to dig individual soldier pits, Wei Jichen suddenly realized.

"How can this work? Dig a small hole in front here that can accommodate one person. When the Japanese fire the cannon, we can hide in this small hole. After the Japanese cannon fires, we can get out and continue shooting." Wei Jichen said swornly.

The use of artillery in this era was very regular. Either it would be bombarded indiscriminately before the attack, or it would be bombarded again when the attack was frustrated. Anyway, as long as you figured out the enemy's artillery patterns, you could avoid the cannons. Bombing is still easy.

Mengzi and Huzi were two rough men. When they heard Wei Jichen's order, they didn't think much about it and started digging.

However, at this time, the Wang Jiaoxi also happened to pass by Wei Jichen, and when he heard his order, his body couldn't help but tremble.

This Wei sentry officer is really a genius. The trenches can be dug like this, so that the enemy's artillery loses most of its power. As long as the bulletproof holes are not blown up, most of them can escape. What can we all do? I didn't expect it.
