Bright Sword: Technology is the primary productive force in war

In the blink of an eye, more than a month has passed. Heiyun Village has recruited a lot of new soldiers. With the addition of weapons and equipment returned from the New 1st Regiment, it can be said that the village is strong in both men and horses.

This made Chen Yan very happy, he was getting married and celebrating the New Year at the same time!

Looking at the forging machines, woodworking machines and various cutting tools, molds, fixtures, measuring tools, etc. borrowed from the arsenal by the brigade commander, Chen Yan has been laughing in his dreams recently.

After the brigade sent the industrial equipment, Chen Yan was not in a hurry to produce 60 rounds, but started making guns instead.

When I was in college, I liked to study guns, but the times did not allow it.

I'm not satisfied with this yet, I have to get some automatic weapons.

"Gouwazi, look at the gun I made with my new equipment."

As he spoke, Chen Yan glanced into the distance.

"Commander, the brigade commander has urged us seven or eight times, asking when we can produce the 60 fire."

Chen Yan was playing with his gun and said nonchalantly:

"Tell the brigade commander not to be in a hurry. Good things are precious and only slow work can produce fine work."

"But...".

Chen Yan smiled cunningly and said:

"But what's the matter? We have to let the brigade commander be anxious for two more days. The market is changing. We may have to renegotiate the price we agreed on before."

It is not difficult to make a gun by traditional methods. When China was just liberated, a factory master wanted to make a gun just like a toy.

However, the gun in Chen Yan's hand was a bit strange in length, more like a crossbow, and much shorter than the Type 38 rifle.

Although the bullet of this gun also has a metal shell, its shape is more like a needle tube, and a pressure device is made of a spring at the front end of the primer.

If you look closely, you will find that this is clearly a metal syringe.

That’s right, this is the anesthetic gun that Chen Yan had just developed.

Even though this thing is not as powerful as a real gun, it is much more powerful than a real gun when it comes to assassinations, kidnappings, etc.

The main thing is the anesthetic gun, it is silent!

Chen Yan was caressing the anesthetic gun lovingly when Li San hurriedly walked in.

"Brother, the brigade sent an urgent telegram saying that a small Japanese army detachment launched a surprise attack on the independent regiment stationed in Yangcun last night."

"The Independent Regiment suffered heavy losses."

"Our superiors have instructed that this small team is currently fleeing towards Hebei Province. The brigade headquarters requires all units along the way to pay close attention to the enemy's movements and report any news at any time."

Hearing this, Chen Yan frowned and slapped his head hard.

Damn it, it’s all my fault that I’ve been thinking about researching tranquilizer guns lately.

He actually forgot about the night attack on the Independent Regiment by Yamamoto Ikki's special forces.

I had originally wanted to help out the independent regiment, but unfortunately, I was careless.

At this time, Chen Yan was very upset, but he soon recovered and asked someone to bring him a map.

"San'er, I know this group of devils. They are the special forces of the Japanese army in Taiyuan city."

"Brother, why did the Japanese from Taiyuan run to the border of Hebei? Do they have other missions?"

Chen Yan was also puzzled, and suddenly he saw a Japanese stronghold called Qingshan Town on the map.

"I understand, they are going to Qingshan Town."

"Qingshan Town is the territory of the Japanese and puppet troops. It is not only an important transportation hub connecting Shanxi and Hebei, but also a supply transit station for the Japanese army."

"And there is also a Japanese prisoner-of-war camp here."

"If we go directly back to Taiyuan from Yangcun, we will pass through a lot of our army's territories along the way."

"The dozing tiger has been startled. Yamamoto Ikki must have been afraid of being targeted by our army, so he ran away."

"Well, you call Gouwazi and Huang Yi, and the four of us will go to Qingshan Town. I want to find out Yamamoto Ikki's background."

Just as Li San was about to leave, Chen Yan called him again.

"By the way, how is Zhang Dabiao?"

Upon hearing this, Li San was furious.

"This bastard locks himself in his room every day and keeps clamoring to go back to the New 1st Regiment."

"Didn't you tell us to leave him alone? No one has paid any attention to him recently."

"But he is so nice and not polite to us at all."

"He eats and drinks lavishly here every day, as if he were a wealthy man."

"You've been a bit of a glutton lately. Yesterday, he complained that he had enough braised pork, and asked us to have some wine with every meal in the future to loosen up the stomach."

Looking at Li San's frustrated look, Chen Yan smiled.

"Okay, stop complaining and call him on this operation."

"What? He doesn't care about our Black Cloud Village now. Can we go?"

"If you tell him there is a war to fight, it will definitely work."

Then Chen Yan lit a cigarette and sat in the yard with his legs crossed.

Zhang Dabiao, you are really cut from the same mold as Li Yunlong, such a stubborn donkey.

You little brat, I can't control you anymore. When the time comes, if you beg me to stay in Black Cloud Village, it will depend on my mood.

At the same time, at Daxiawan Headquarters.

The commander cursed loudly in the office.

"MD, what main group? I think it's just a dough."

"An entire regiment was defeated by a small Japanese force. What a waste! Go and remove this regiment commander."

"Yes, Chief."

After the guard left, the chief of staff said:

"Commander, please calm down first. I think we have to reorganize the independent regiment first. We can't let this regiment disband."

The commander calmed down, sighed and said:

"You are right. If you want to command an army, you must first select generals."

"However, we are now seriously short of military cadres, which is a headache."

The Chief of Staff smiled and said:

"Chief, you haven't forgotten our newly appointed director of the clothing factory, have you?"

"Are you talking about Li Yunlong? I admit that this guy is a good fighter and can be used very easily, but this habit of disobeying orders cannot be tolerated. The last time we went to the clothing factory to see him, he was still talking about reason. If we don't win him over this time, I will take his place as the director of the clothing factory."

The chief of staff continued: "Chief, when you mentioned the clothing factory just now, I remembered someone."

"It's Chen Yan from Heiyun Village. This guy is very good at leading troops in battle. Little Chen talks to me every day and wants to use him."

When the commander heard this, he fell into deep thought.

"This kid is indeed a rare talent, but... never mind, let's wait and see."

Chen Yan and a few others disguised themselves and sneaked into Qingshan Town.

Ever since the Japanese invaders and puppet troops came to Qingyun Town, they have brought great suffering to the people here.

Chen Yan and his companions came to a small restaurant opposite the Japanese POW camp.

At this time, Gouwazi walked in from outside and sat down next to Chen Yan.

He lowered his head and whispered: "Captain, I just saw five Japanese soldiers coming out from the opposite side."

"And the equipment they wear is exactly the same as what you said, even the helmets on their heads are not reflective at all."

After listening to it, several people exchanged glances, threw down a dollar and followed.

Zhang Dabiao followed reluctantly all the way.

They said they were here to fight, but there were only three or four of them. I guess they were trying to trick me again.

I don't know what tricks they are playing.

Da Biao shook his head helplessly. At this point, he had to jump into the fire pit.
