With Pinxixi in hand, I have a supermarket in the Changzheng!

Chapter 109 It’s not certain whether I can come up!

Chief Liu looked at the raincoat and couldn't let it go. "Let me know what you suggest."

Then, the Minister of Ordnance, Chen Gang, explained his plan.

"It's just the beginning of summer, and it will rain a lot. We should bring more raincoats with us."

Chen Gang thought for a moment and continued, "Not only raincoats, but we also need to ask the villagers to prepare some large pieces of cloth to make shelters."

Commander Liu nodded in agreement. "This is a good idea, but with so many people in our army, will we have enough fabric?"

"I'll go ask around in the village now. If they have any, we'll buy them all!"

Then the soldiers responsible for purchasing military supplies went from house to house in the village in the rain.

"Uncle, how much cloth do you have at home? We want to buy it all!"

A soldier knocked on an old man's door and asked.

The old man smiled and invited them in, "I have a lot of them at home, come and see!"

The old man took him to a sundries room and dragged out many big bags from the room.

When he opened his pockets, they were full of cloth.

"Cloth has not been selling well in recent years. We can't sell the cloth we make, so it's all piled up in the house. You can take it if you want."

The soldier was originally worried that the villagers' homes did not have enough cloth to make so many rain shelters.

When I saw the fabrics at the uncle's house, I was immediately delighted. These fabrics were enough to make raincoats for hundreds of people!

He also went to the aunt's house to see the steps of making a raincoat.

In fact, making a raincoat does not take too much fabric and is also quick to make.

If you don't pursue exquisiteness, as long as it can be used, it won't take too long to make a raincoat.

Soon, the soldiers who were purchasing military supplies bought all the cloth from the villagers' homes, and the amount was definitely enough.

The next troublesome thing is to make raincoats.

Although it doesn't take too long to make a raincoat, there are more than 100,000 people in the army, which is a very large project.

The main force of the Red Army cannot be delayed here for too long, so the raincoats must be made as quickly as possible and completed in the shortest possible time.

With the experience of asking the villagers for help in sewing military uniforms last time, things went smoothly this time.

Chen Gang asked every household to help make raincoats, and they would be rewarded accordingly after completion.

Moreover, after this meeting, the Red Fourth Army had several thousand female soldiers.

The female soldiers were all clever and skillful and took on the task of sewing raincoats.

The sewing machines that Zhou Yue brought before were still there, and she was concentrating on operating them again.

It has to be said that there is strength in numbers. With so many people working together to help, everyone almost stayed up all night.

Finally, on the next morning, the raincoats and tarpaulins were ready, and it was time to say goodbye to the kind villagers in this village.

Minister of Military Affairs Chen Gang distributed the silver dollars as rewards to the villagers one by one.

However, after the Red Army left, these silver dollars returned to Zhou Yue's hands.

Zhou Yue will continue to look for opportunities to return these silver dollars to the hands of the Red Army.

When we left the next morning, it was cloudy but not raining.

By the afternoon, thunder and lightning began to roar in the sky, but the soldiers were no longer panicked.

Everyone took out the raincoats they carried with them and put them on.

Zhou Yue bought this raincoat fabric from the system mall. It looks like ordinary fabric, but it is very waterproof.

Moreover, it is not thick at all and is very light. Soldiers can put it in their bags without taking up space or adding weight.

"Ouch! It's raining!"

"This raincoat is so comfortable to wear!"

"Suddenly I felt that walking in the rain like this was quite comfortable!"

The soldiers’ mood was completely different during this rainstorm.

I am no longer so sad and irritable, but instead I feel more in the mood to enjoy the rain.

They continued marching in raincoats without slowing down their progress at all.

By evening, the rain was still falling, but the soldiers finally had a place to shelter from the rain.

The soldiers cut some sticks from the nearby woods.

Take out the rainproof cloth, which looks like a square with ropes on the four corners.

Insert the wooden stick into the ground, and then tie the rope on the cloth to the wooden stick.

It’s that simple. It can be built in less than ten minutes. It’s a simple shelter from the rain.

"Brother, let's go pick up some hay."

Zhou Yue and his brother found some dry grass in the woods. In fact, the grass was not dry at all, as it had been soaked by the rain.

But it doesn’t matter, as long as there is some grass to bedding, you can have a good sleep at night.

We found some grass and put it on the ground to isolate the water, then spread rainproof cloth on the grass, and the sleeping habitat was ready.

Although there was a violent storm outside, the soldiers felt particularly safe in this small shelter.

Zhou Yue also smiled, feeling that she was finding joy in misery, and it was as fun as camping.

After that, it rained every day for a while, and Zhou Yue was a little annoyed by it.

But I didn't expect that the rainstorm would be so powerful.

The Red Army continued to advance and came to a large river with a pontoon bridge across it.

However, the floating bridge had been badly damaged by the flood. Zhou Yue felt that if he passed through it, he would be swallowed up by the flood if he was not careful.

She felt scared when she saw the flood under the floating bridge.

There is no doubt that after Zhou Yue came to this era, he really liked the big rivers, big streams and small streams here.

But the river today is very scary, it is no longer clear.

It is the color of loess, the water is rushing, and the water contains soil and sand that has been washed away.

Such a river would make people feel a little scared, and the soldiers also realized that the floating bridge was unsafe.

"Commander, this floating bridge looks fragile. Are we going to cross the river now?"

Commander Liu looked at the rushing yellow river with worry.

"This floating bridge is about to break down. We can't just cross it like this. We have to repair it."

When the soldier next to him heard this, his face was also filled with worry.

"But the current is so fast, how can we build this floating bridge?"

In the past, floating bridges were built in places where the water flow was not fast, so the soldiers could wade through the water.

But in this place now, if the soldiers go into the water, they may not be able to come out!
