Bright Sword: Technology is the primary productive force in war

Chen Yan led the team back to Heiyun Village and then quickly arranged for treatment of the wounded.

Chen Yan, Li San and Huang Yi reviewed the battle situation in the room.

"Commander, our regiment suffered 83 casualties in this battle, killed more than 150 enemies, and seized nearly 5 rifles, 2 light and heavy machine guns, and mortars..."

Li San couldn't help but frown when he heard Huang Yi reporting the results of the battle.

"Brother, that's not right. The seized weapons and ammunition shouldn't be so few."

"Especially the heavy weapons, they don't match the accounts."

"There are more than just these many Japanese soldiers in one squadron of Laoyeling."

Chen Yan helplessly told the story of Li Yunlong shamelessly stealing equipment in Laoyeling.

After hearing this, Li San was so angry that he exploded.

"Where did the Eighth Route Army find the regiment commander? This is too shameless."

"We handed them a ladder and saved their lives."

"Then they took away the ladder and ran away?"

Huang Yi on the side quickly glanced at Li San, signaling him to stop talking, and glanced at Chen Yan.

At this time, Chen Yan's face turned red and his neck became thick, and it took him a long time to speak.

"San'er, this is my fault. As soon as Li Yunlong started playing the emotional card with me, I got carried away."

"I was fooled by this old guy. It will be so embarrassing if the news gets out."

Li San hadn't figured out what Huang Yi meant yet, and he kept on talking non-stop.

"Brother, you are the same. The brothers have worked hard to prepare wedding dresses for his mother's new group."

"You are so foolish that you treat him as your real brother. He treats you as the stupid son of the landlord."

.....

Hearing this, Chen Yan became very upset and threw the teacup to the ground.

"MD, is it your turn to blame me?"

"Is this never going to happen? Get out of here!"

Seeing that Chen Yan was really angry, the two of them retreated decisively.

Chen Yan looked at the moonlight outside the window, and a hint of certainty flashed in his eyes.

"Li Yunlong, you want to play, right?"

"I'll stick with you till the end, you just wait to be stabbed on the streets of northwest Shanxi."

At the same time, upon learning that it was Chen Yan who bombarded the Sakata Regiment, the brigade commander hurriedly picked up the phone.

"Hurry up and get me the head of headquarters."

After the brigade commander told the commander everything, the deputy commander-in-chief looked serious.

After a long while, he said, "Xiao Chen, come to my place right away and let's have a face-to-face talk."

"Yes, Chief."

The brigade commander picked up the whip on the table and shouted to the guard outside the door: "Prepare the horses, go to Daxia Bay tonight."

Tonight, northwest Shanxi is destined to be sleepless.

At this time, the operations room of the 358th Regiment of the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army was brightly lit.

Chief of Staff Fang Ligong walked in anxiously from outside.

"Commander, after investigation by our personnel, we have found that the mysterious force that broke into Cangyun Ridge is none other than the Heiyun Village Anti-Japanese Volunteer Army."

"Their leader is called Chen Yan. Currently, no information about him is available. We have sent a joint investigation notice to the Central Bureau of Investigation and the Military Bureau of Investigation's intelligence departments, but there is no news yet."

Chu Yunfei was fiddling with the Browning in his hand.

"Where did the Heiyunzhai Anti-Japanese Volunteer Army come from? I've never heard of them."

Suddenly, Chu Yunfei widened his eyes and looked at Fang Ligong in disbelief.

"He has done a great job, could it be the bandits from Heiyun Village?"

"That's right, Commander. They officially announced the establishment of an army a few days ago."

"But this incident didn't cause much stir and our intelligence personnel didn't notice it."

Chu Yunfei's eyes flashed with surprise, and then he said with emotion:

"Well, heroes emerge in troubled times, and the mouse really turns into a cat."

"It seems that this person also cares about the country and has great ambitions."

"In that case, Chen Yan can be considered to be both skilled and courageous. A group of bandit armed forces actually dared to jump into the encirclement of the Sakata Corps and were killed by them."

"It's strange, but it is definitely a good thing for the development and construction of China's national defense."

Then, Chu Yunfei showed a look of regret again.

"But this man is still too young. It is not a wise move for him to rush into the encirclement of the Japanese army. After all, he comes from a wild background."

"It was unexpected that the New 1st Regiment of the Eighth Route Army confronted the Sakata Regiment head-on."

As he spoke, Chu Yunfei showed an approving look again.

"This old devil Sakata is not easy to deal with. During the Battle of Xinkou, Sakata's regiment alone defeated two divisions of the Central Army."

"Yes, Commander. Last time our regiment fought him in Luye, we suffered nearly 300 casualties in just one hour. If we hadn't retreated quickly, the 358th Regiment would have been wiped out by him."

Hearing this, Chu Yunfei felt somewhat helpless, and then continued:

"The commander of the New 1st Regiment is really an extraordinary person. He defeated Sakata's headquarters with a single shot, destroyed the Japanese army's command system, and then broke out from the front in an organized manner. He did a really great job. How great it would be if he were a talent of our army."

Fang Ligong hurriedly explained at this time.

"Commander, it was not the Shinichi Regiment that attacked the Sakata Command Headquarters. It was Chen Yan who destroyed it with one shot."

"What? Is the news accurate?"

"That's right, Commander. The Eighth Route Army Headquarters has reported the battle situation to the Second War Zone Headquarters."

"This is the detailed battle situation that the headquarters has just issued to each regiment."

After reading the materials, Chu Yunfei sighed to the sky.

"This Chen Yan will never be that simple."

"From the time he charged into the encirclement to the subsequent frontal breakthrough, this series of combined attacks showed a clear strategic intention. The comprehensive strength, mobility and execution of the troops were so strong that a bandit could never achieve it."

"He is simply a genius conductor."

"Could he be a graduate of some military academy? And eventually had no choice but to become a bandit? This person was definitely not in the first five classes of Whampoa Military Academy."

At this time, the chief of telecommunications came in with a document.

"Report to the commander-in-chief, the Military Control Commission has just sent a telegram."

"It has been found out that Chen Yan from Heiyunzhai was a graduate of the 14th class of Whampoa Military Academy. He later worked in the Taiyuan Group of the Shanxi Station of the Military Control Commission. Due to the arrest of Guo Qin's group, the Shanxi Military Control Commission was almost destroyed and the whereabouts of this person is still unknown."

After saying that, Chu Yunfei shouted excitedly.

"Haha, that's what I told you, you are indeed the pillar of our party and country."

Fang Ligong had a puzzled look on his face.

"Commander, even if he met with an accident, why didn't this person seek help from the organization but instead became a bandit?"

Hearing this, Chu Yunfei sighed and put the telegram from the headquarters that morning in front of Fang Ligong.

Fang Ligong looked at the last line of the document and understood.

It said: "To cooperate with the Eighth Route Army in combat, a written order from the headquarters is required."

Chu Yunfei laughed disdainfully and said: "It is indeed difficult to realize the ambition of serving the country."

"If this continues, I'm going to go up the mountain and become a bandit."

At this moment, Fang Ligong was dumbfounded and dared not speak.
