Chapter 1948: What news needs to be bought with money?
Smith looked at the secretary in front of him.
In the past, he was not optimistic about this secretary, thinking that she was just a person in the Prime Minister's Office who was busy working but didn't know what her significance was.
But now, he doubted that the person in front of him, if God hadn't given her a chance, maybe she would have made new achievements.
"Leave. He won't stay in that position for too long. Even the entire cabinet will be implicated because of this matter."
No matter how much he contributed to this matter, it could not cover up his mistakes.
You can win multiple times, but you can make a mistake only once.
If you make a mistake, you will have no chance to change it. The higher you are, the less likely you are to have such an opportunity, and he is such a person.
"Your Excellency, Prime Minister, can the empire be restored to its former glory?" the secretary asked another topic.
Without the glory of the past empire, where will the powerful place go, and what kind of life will she choose?
"No. After the war, we can't go back. From now on, we may have to watch others live."
Smith didn't know what would happen next, but the empire would never be as wealthy and prosperous as it had been in the past.
Industry has given the empire this opportunity, but at the same time, industry will also reduce the empire to ashes. One day, a powerful empire may only exist in history and cannot survive forever.
The secret service team is stationed here.
However, in order to avoid poisoning by the Japanese army, the water used by the secret service group was transported from the river behind.
But this will increase consumption accordingly.
Zhou Weiguo looked at the busy cars and his eyes fell on the river in front.
If there is a nearby water source that he doesn't need, why would he spend a lot of effort to transport the water source behind him? Although the gasoline does not come from his own country, from now on, it will all belong to the empire.
"Xiao Ya." Zhou Weiguo called.
Xiao Ya, who was talking to Nan Zhongmei and others, came to him and asked confusedly: "What's wrong, Awen?"
Xiao Ya pointed to the river less than a hundred meters away; "If there is water, we don't need to transport it from behind. Can you organize people to test the water source every day? From now on, we will use the water here.
Instead of transporting it behind the scenes, it consumes too much fuel."
Xiao Ya didn't think about it for a moment, but she immediately understood what Wei Guo's plan was.
Save whatever you can. In the future, you may not be able to obtain supplies for a short period of time. If you can save, just save.
Xiao Ya hummed; "I will arrange this matter, but Awen, we don't know what the Japanese army's plan is now. If our troops are always in the trenches, in this hot weather, the soldiers may also
I can’t bear it.”
The terrain was hot and humid, which Xiao Ya had never expected in the past. The secret service team had fought in many places in the Ninth War Zone, but they had never encountered such a situation.
Some soldiers developed certain illnesses due to the weather. She made a special trip to the health company. Fan Xiaoyu meant that this was caused by the weather and terrain, and the soldiers had been in the trenches.
There is no good treatment method. As long as you leave the trench for a period of time, you can cure it. Also, try not to lay blankets directly on the ground where you live. The best way is to set up a layer on top to avoid direct contact with the ground.
She had already told Jiang Yue about this matter, and Jiang Yue had arranged for people from the Second Battalion and the Engineer Company to deal with this issue.
Now, it depends on what the Japanese army plans to do next. If they do not plan to attack, there is no need for the troops to enter the position. They just place a few observation posts in the position, and the large troops can rest directly.
"I'll ask the scout to ask about the situation." Zhou Weiguo thought for a while and asked the messenger to call someone.
There is no way, Xu Hu is now the commander of the tank battalion, and he is still training behind the scenes. Without him, there are many things. If he wants to get the news first-hand, he can only let the scouts go over and figure out the situation.
The messenger quickly conveyed the order.
However, before they left, Hu Yong, who was in front, came back on his motorcycle.
When Zhou Weiguo saw him coming in, he put down the teapot directly: "What, the Japanese army is attacking?"
Hu Yong put down his helmet and shook his head; "No, commander, I don't think the Japanese army will attack in a short time. Their main force did not occupy our defense line in Area 7, but only deployed observation posts in front. In addition, the Japanese patrols
The team, in the past few days, has not passed the three kilometers in front of us."
"Could it be a conspiracy? After all, they have done more dirty things than anyone else in this regard." Nan Zhongmei, who was in front of the map, put down the ruler and asked.
Hu Yong turned to look at Nan Zhongmei and shook his head; "Madam, the possibility of this is not very high. I estimate that they regard three kilometers as the bottom line. To verify, I asked a squad of troops to come closer to their patrol route.
I walked around the border area.”
"What's the result? Did the two sides take action?" Zhou Weiguo became interested.
If the Japanese army doesn't take action this time, does that mean that, in fact, they won't be entangled with us here at the moment?
If this is the case, then you can completely withdraw your troops and just put some patrols and observation posts in front.
"I didn't take any action. I watched personally and even prepared for rescue, but they just looked at each other and left."
Strange.
Nan Zhongmei was confused for a moment.
When did the Japanese army become so easy to talk to?
If in the past, there was no fight when this happened, it would not be the Japanese army.
As I said, the two sides are currently hostile. There is no way they would fight if they met.
If in the ninth theater, the two sides come into close contact, no matter whether there is a fight or not, there will be a fight first.
But here, according to Hu Yong, the distance between the two sides was only about fifty meters, but even at this distance, there was no fight.
Why.
Could it be that the Japanese army is planning to negotiate with us?
This is impossible. If this is the case, then why didn't Shancheng send any news at all? In any case, they will also send news.
"No, what are they trying to do? The two sides are still hostile. How could they not fight back or attack at such a close distance? Is there something wrong with this?"
Nam Chung-mi raised her own doubts.
Xiao Ya knocked on the desk, also thinking about this issue. After a long time, she turned to look at Zhou Weiguo: "Let's spend money to sell information. We need to find out what their situation is."
Spend money? Several people looked at Xiao Ya. How long had it been since they wanted a piece of news that they actually had to spend money?
