Bright Sword: Follow Kong's fun and build the strongest military industry

Then, Li Yunlong and Chu Yunfei set out for Zhaojiayu Industrial Zone together. The independent regiment's motorcycle convoy led the way, followed by the cavalry unit of the 358th Regiment.

When the team drove to a forest, two big wild boars suddenly rushed out of the woods and blocked the middle of the road, scaring the driver of the front motorcycle.

When everyone saw clearly what it was, the soldiers were immediately overjoyed. This was a good thing that came to their doorstep.

Then, the soldier in the front signaled the team to stop, and then aimed his rifle directly at the wild boar's head and shot. After consuming six bullets, he successfully killed two big wild boars.

Chu Yunfei was riding on a horse when he noticed that the motorcycle team in front had stopped. Thinking that an emergency had occurred, he quickly dismounted to check.

Suddenly there was another burst of gunfire. The special guard platoon immediately formed a combat formation to protect Chu Yunfei. The alert was not lifted until our soldiers came to notify them.

After seeing the friendly forces' actions, the accompanying independent regiment soldiers nodded involuntarily. This was a unit with rich combat experience, and their various crisis response measures were also quite standard.

Seeing that the danger was over, Chu Yunfei quickly dismounted and walked over to check what had happened.

But when he saw two big wild boars lying on the road, he was so surprised that he cried out:

"Brother Yunlong, are the wild boars here so rampant? They dare to walk on the road in broad daylight. Wild boars in other places are very small, but these two have grown so big, I'm afraid they must have become spirits."

"In this war-torn era, most people can't even get enough food, but your base still has such fat wild boars. To be honest, I have lived for decades, and today really opened my eyes."

"If these wild boars were in the deep mountains and forests, I could understand it, but this is on the main road, with people coming and going every day. These wild boars are too stupid. They are just putting their meat in front of our mouths for us to eat."

Chu Yunfei is not a pedantic person. These two big wild boars together have at least 358 to kilograms of pork. Even if their th Regiment encounters them, they will not let them go. So much meat can at least allow the whole regiment to have a good meal, which will significantly boost the morale of the troops.

Even though the 358th Regiment is Commander Yan's favorite and has abundant logistical supplies, that is only for ordinary food. Good things like pork can only be eaten once or twice a month at most, except during festivals.

Pork is very expensive in the market. Although the boar in front of us is a wild boar and its meat is not as delicious as that of domestic pigs, in this era, there is no oil or water in the rice. As long as it is meat, no one will be picky.

Regarding Chu Yunfei’s question, how these wild animals appeared, Li Yunlong was actually not very clear, and he didn’t know how to explain it.

There have been two major outbreaks of wild animals in Zhao Jiayu's area, and the second one was even more severe than the first, only about seven days apart. Now almost every household in the nearby villagers has two or three cured rabbits, which is enough for the whole family to eat for several months.

Those caught later will basically be sold in the market, but only a small number of people can afford the meat, and the price is now only half of the usual price.

The Independent Regiment took action at this time, purchasing large quantities of these things at market prices and storing them in cans.

Because no one knows how long this situation will last, we must be prepared. Although a large number of wild animals have appeared in more and more places for the second time, and the time is basically seven days, which seems to be in line with the saying of a seven-day cycle, such uncontrollable things are not safe after all, and it is never wrong to store a large amount of meat.

Once wild animals no longer appear in the future, we can survive for a long time with the stored meat. At the same time, many inedible parts of wild animals can be used to attract flies and develop our own breeding industry. This is a good thing that kills two birds with one stone.

Moreover, because the price of meat in our base is much lower than that in other places, some people see business opportunities. Many small vendors will buy large quantities of cured rabbit and cured wild boar meat from the market in the base, and then transport them to other distant places to sell at high prices.

As long as there is enough profit in this world, there are people who will do this kind of thing of buying low and selling high. It is precisely because of this that the price of meat in other places has also dropped a bit. Moreover, if people eat more meat, they will eat less other grains, which can also stabilize the price of grain.

We strongly support this situation. Many caravans that come to our base will not come empty-handed. They will definitely bring some supplies needed for our base, such as various types of food, minerals, etc.

At the same time, the prices of a large number of industrial products produced in our base, such as screwdrivers, nails, wrenches, kettles, etc., are cheaper than in other places. As long as they are shipped out, we can make considerable profits, and the market has become vibrant.

In particular, the large number of tricycles and bicycles on the market has greatly reduced the cost of transportation, which has formed a virtuous circle.

Originally, even though our base had the research and development capabilities, it was seriously lacking in raw materials. Now we have the resources of a continent behind us, so all the shortcomings have been solved, and the future industry will definitely explode.

It’s just that these things are changing slowly, and no one has noticed it, except Kong Hao, the person involved.

However, some things cannot be said openly, so Li Yunlong quickly changed the subject: "Brother Yunfei, I don't know about these things either. Anyway, they appeared inexplicably in our base. We are lucky today, and you are in for a treat. Let's eat these two big fat pigs tonight to welcome the brothers from the 358th Regiment who came from afar."

When everyone heard that they could eat meat again tonight, they started shouting. Of course, the happiest ones were the soldiers from the Special Guard Platoon of the 358th Regiment. They drooled when they heard that they would have meat to eat.

At this time, more than a dozen people emerged from the woods nearby, led by Yang Xiuqin, captain of the Zhao Jiayu militia and director of the Women's Rescue Association.

There were only four militiamen in this team holding hunting rifles, and the rest were holding hoes or sticks, but many of them were holding a fat rabbit in their hands.

Because the headquarters of the independent regiment was in Zhaojiayu, the villagers in the village became familiar with the people of the independent regiment and greeted them when they met.

Yang Xiuqin walked forward and said to Li Yunlong with a smile, "Captain Li, we heard gunshots in the woods just now, and we guessed that it must be the troops who took action. We chased these two wild boars for a long time, but they still escaped."

"Fortunately, the troops took action. Otherwise, if they were allowed to escape to other places, they would have been taken advantage of by other villages. That would have been a shame."
