Under One Person: I am the Master of Maoshan

Zhang Wanhe was really driven crazy by Li Yunlong and finally agreed to only twenty boxes, but added a condition that he wanted a Japanese officer's sword.

Shen Yan rolled his eyes and chimed in, "It's just a knife, easy to handle. Lao Zhang, you know we attacked Changye last year, and I skinned the commander Qingshui alive. Give Lao Li another ten boxes, and I'll give you his knife."

"Commissioner Shen, are you serious?"

"It's just a broken knife. There's no use for me to keep it."

Zhang Wanhe smiled happily after hearing this. Qingshui was a real colonel commander of the Japanese army regiment, and was executed by Shen Yan's nationwide telegram. His knife was very commemorative.

He took out a note and handed it to Xiao Li, asking him to take Tian Xiaodie on a tour and then receive thirty boxes of grenades.

But just as they pushed the door open and were about to go out, they saw the brigade commander standing at the door with a dark face.

"Hey, Commander, you are here. Come on in, come on in. Are you tired from the journey?"

Li Yunlong welcomed the brigade commander into the house like a lackey.

The brigade commander pointed at Zhang Wanhe with a whip in his hand and said, "Zhang Wanhe, you have learned to take bribes. I'm going to report you to the chief!"

Zhang Wanhe cried out, "It's unfair, Brigade Commander. Since the Long March, when I crossed the grassland, can you tell me when I have ever taken a grain of food or put a copper coin in my pocket? Where did you start with your accusation of corruption and bribery?"

"Just now!"

The brigade commander pointed at the officer's knife and said, "Damn it, you always find excuses when I ask you to approve some guns and ammunition. Today, Xiao Shen asked you to add ten boxes of grenades just for his command knife. I don't care! If you don't give me thirty boxes of grenades, I will report you to the boss!"

Zhang Wanhe understood as soon as he heard it. The brigade commander had been listening at the door for a long time just for these grenades.

He took out another note from the drawer and spoke as he wrote.

"Okay, okay, okay, I can't afford to offend you. It's just thirty boxes of grenades. I'll give them to you!"

The brigade commander then changed his expression from anger to joy: "Wanhe, I don't blame Li Yunlong for saying that to you. How come you have really become as stingy as the local rich man in Jin District?"

"Commander, you acted so well that even I almost believed it."

The brigade commander laughed at Shen Yan and said, "Hahaha, today I will give you back the acting skills that Lulu had in the Blood Flower Drama Club."

Not long after, the headquarters sent people down to greet everyone, and the leader was Zhang Dong, who was assigned to the headquarters by Zhiju.

"Captain, Brigade Commander, the commander asked me to pick you up."

Shen Yan and his group followed Zhang Dong up the mountain. It was his first time to come to the Eighth Route Army headquarters.

On the way, Zhang Dong asked, "Captain, when are we going to act? I am dying of rust if I stay in the headquarters every day."

Shen Yan chuckled a few times: "How many people want to be by the leader's side but don't have the chance, and you're still complaining."

"It's too formal to be here with the chief. It's not as comfortable as being with my brothers in the regiment."

"Just wait, maybe you can be transferred back after a while."

Zhang Dong took them to the chief's residence, where the chief and the division commander were playing chess. When they saw Shen Yan and the others come in, the chief immediately messed up the chess pieces.

"Hey, hey, hey, Chief. I'm about to win, and you're cheating!"

"This round doesn't count. Xiao Shen and the others are here."

Shen Yan saluted the two men and said, "Hello, Commander, hello, I am Shen Yan from the Eighth Route Army reporting in."

The chief looked Shen Yan up and down and said, "Great, he is indeed a young hero. I finally get to see him this time."

Shen Yan took the prepared items from Lv Ren: "Commander, these are the bacon, pressed duck and some specialties from your hometown that a friend brought from Hunan some time ago."

The chief took out a piece of bacon and smelled it: "Hmm~ This is authentic Xiangtan bacon. We will have it as a snack tonight. Don't stand and sit down."

After everyone was seated, the chief's bodyguard Shi Tou poured water for everyone and then left.

The leader looked at Shen Yan's smiling face and asked, "Captain Shen gathered us all together. Do you have any instructions?"

"Commander, you are making fun of me. I will always be a student in front of you and I dare not give you instructions."

The chief snorted, "There is nothing in this world that you dare not do. Tell me, what do you want to do with such a big event?"

"Yes, Chief, then I will speak directly."

Shen Yan said seriously: "Commander, division commander, do you feel that the recent development of our 129th Division has been a bit slow? From the feedback given to me by the torchbearers, the recent recruitment situation of our regiment-level units is not very ideal."

The division commander and the chief looked at each other, he nodded and smiled, "Indeed, I talked about this issue with the chief yesterday. It seems that you, Xiao Shen, already have an idea, right?"

"There's one thing I think we should do!"

"Tell me in detail"

Shen Yan pointed to the map and told about his plan to return to southeastern Shanxi.

The commander took a breath of cold air. He didn't expect that Shen Yan would target southeastern Shanxi.

"Xiao Shen, the southeastern part of Shanxi is easy to fight. There is only one isolated city left, Changye County. But this involves our friendly forces. Do you understand what I mean?"

The corners of his mouth curled up slightly: "Commander, I understand, so I plan to occupy the land but not the city after conquering southeastern Shanxi. We will only take what we need and throw the problem away!"

"Throw it out? That's quite interesting. Tell me about it."

Shen Yan described in detail the follow-up matters of taking over southeastern Shanxi.

"Look, Commander, the situation in the entire Jin region is complicated. Ever since the Japanese took over Taiyuan, the people in the Jin region have been scolding that perfect man for two whole years. What do you think will happen if we give him a victory at this time?"

The commander's eyes lit up when he heard this: "Are you saying that we can bring in Yan Wanren to take over Changye?"

"Yes, not only that..."

In Shen Yan's plan, he would sweep southeastern Shanxi with thunderous force. Then he would use Changye County as bait to lure the Shanxi Suiyuan Army to take over. At the same time, he would report to the diarist that the Eighth Route Army had successfully recovered the lost territory in southeastern Shanxi, and let the Nationalist government send people to take over.

Jin District is Yan Wanren's base, so he will never let go as long as there is a glimmer of hope. And in order to show that they are orthodox, the diarists will definitely send officials at all levels.

In order to fight for the right to rule, the two sides will fight each other like raising a poisonous insect. At this time, the Eighth Route Army can take advantage of the situation to develop and strengthen itself.

The reason why Shen Yan had enough confidence to develop in the middle of both sides was the reputation he had accumulated in the southeast of Shanxi. If he had not been unable to defend Changye at the beginning, he might have raised an army of 10,000 people in a very short time.

"Good! Good! I think this plan is very good. It can not only make us grow stronger, but also avoid friction with them. The most important thing is that we have a foundation in southeastern Shanxi. If we develop in southeastern Shanxi, we can echo the 120th Division in northwest Shanxi. At a critical moment, we can make it difficult for the Japanese to take care of both ends."

The chief and the division commander praised Shen Yan's plan highly, especially the division commander. He did not expect that Shen Yan could see the contradiction between the perfect man and the diarist so thoroughly.

"Commander, Commander, when do we start the action?"

The chief said with a smile: "Such a large-scale operation is equivalent to opening up a new base. I do not have the authority to approve it. You must report to the Holy Land."

Shen Yan pointed at himself and said, "I'll go report?"

"Of course it's you! Don't forget that your position as a member of the Resolution Bureau is not just an empty title. You need to learn to be a qualified decision-maker instead of just fighting and killing. Go quickly and report back to eat. I can't wait to taste the bacon you brought."

......

"Chief! Commissioner Shen called."

Mr. Xiangfei took the telegram and looked at the title of the telegram with a serious expression. This was the first time that Shen Yan made a call as a member of the Resolution Bureau. It must be something very important.
