Bright Sword: Technology is the primary productive force in war

Chapter 130: Seizing Ping'an County

Chen Yan dragged Rudy back to Heiyun Village. Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang in front of him were completely dumbfounded.

How come this guy is back again after just going to the hospital?

I hope nothing strange will happen again.

Li Yunlong winked at Zhao Gang, who spoke reluctantly:

"Brigade Commander, you wouldn't have sneaked back again, would you?"

"no".

Zhao Gang patted his chest, looking as if he had been pardoned.

so far so good.

"This time I asked the dean for leave by force."

“???”.

Zhao Gang asked with lingering fear:

"How should I interpret the term 'forced leave' that you mentioned?"

"I asked the dean for leave, but she didn't approve it, so I ran away."

Hearing this, Zhao Gang felt as if everything in front of his eyes went dark and the world became dizzy.

"It's over, something's going to happen again.

Chen Er, why are you making trouble this time?"

Chen Yan looked at Zhao Gang and pointed at Rudy, "It's all because of him."

Then Chen Yan gave a detailed introduction to Rudy’s identity and background.

"My two brothers, you all know the importance of opening a military factory to our independent brigade and even the entire Eighth Route Army. I have finally found the hope of developing the military factory. Do you think I can stay in the hospital?"

Li Yunlong was completely confused, but Zhao Gang saw the matter clearly.

"Brigade Commander, you are not planning to go to Shanghai to look for ways to get equipment from military factories, are you?"

Chen Yan blew out a smoke ring and nodded, "Old Zhao is an understanding man.

That’s right, I, Chen Yan, plan to make a living in Shanghai.”

Hearing this, Li Yunlong smiled so hard that his mouth was crooked, "It's good to go to Shanghai!

I heard that Shanghai is called the Little Paris of the East. It is a place of fame and fortune, full of bright lights and revelry. I, Lao Li, have never seen it. Can you take me with you this time? "

It turns out that Lao Li also has a reserved and passionate heart!

This is easy to handle. The team voted 2:1, so there is no need to worry about Lao Zhao’s objection.

At this time, Chen Yan nodded and said, "Well, Lao Li will go too this time, and Lao Zhao will stay at home to look after the house."

At this time, Zhao Gang's face became increasingly heavy.

“Commander, you should think about this matter carefully. I don’t think it’s that simple.

After the fall of Shanghai in 37, the Japanese began to be wary of capitalist countries such as Britain and the United States, and Shanghai still had concessions and public concessions from various countries. However, since last year, the situation has taken a sharp turn for the worse, and Japan has begun to frequently rub against concessions from various countries, always wanting to stir up trouble.

Chen Yan looked at Zhao Gang meaningfully, with respect rising spontaneously in his heart.

Old Zhao is worthy of being the number one talent around me, even though the war situation in North China has been so complicated in recent years and the Eighth Route Army has been in a state of panic.

But he was able to look at the whole country and assess the situation. Based on this perspective, he is worthy of being a role model of our generation who has a high level of political accomplishment, dared to shout out those inspiring words at the subsequent conference, and finally decided to die heroically.

Thinking of Zhao Gang's ending, Chen Yan felt sad. The three giants had long been friends who had risked their lives for each other.

Li Yunlong didn't take Zhao Gang's words seriously:

"Old Zhao, you're jealous because I didn't let you go this time."

"Old Li, don't make trouble. You don't understand what's going on here."

"Scholar, who are you looking down on? I just don't believe that I, Li Yunlong, can't go to such a crappy Shanghai."

Watching the two of them working again, Chen Yan fell into deep thought.

He knew very well what Lao Zhao meant by the unusual movements of the Japanese army in Shanghai, and this was actually the main reason why he was eager to go to Shanghai at that moment.

No one knew more clearly than Chen Yan about the major changes that would happen in Shanghai in the future. Because on December 12 of the same year, the Pacific War broke out, and the Japanese army completely turned against the concession countries and wantonly invaded the entire Shanghai.

The Japanese Navy stationed in Shanghai almost opened fire on the American gunboat Wake in the Huangpu River!

This year, the situation in Shanghai took a sharp turn for the worse. If we had gone to Shanghai later, things would have been even more difficult.

Therefore, Chen Yan was more anxious than anyone else at this time.

Chen Yan knocked on the table and looked at the two of them with some displeasure:

"Don't argue with each other, this matter is settled.

This time I will take Lao Li, Rudy, Li San, Da Biao, Heshang, Gou Wa Zi, and 30 special forces members to Shanghai. Lao Zhao will be in charge of the housekeeping, and you will take care of the conscription and smokeless gunpowder production."

At this moment, Rudy, who was dozing off, suddenly opened his eyes:

"Fuck, Brother Yan, what are you taking me for?

There is a lot of work to do at home, so the political commissar and I will take care of the house."

Hearing this, Chen Yan grabbed his neck and strangled him, making him almost unable to breathe:

"How many jobs do you have? You sleep all day long!

Are you the reincarnation of Bajie? You can fall asleep anywhere.

The three of us are having a meeting here, so it won't bother you to take a nap now!"

At this time, Rudy's face turned the color of liver, and he quickly begged for mercy:

"Boss, why don't I go?"

Chen Yan was completely helpless against Rudy's will, so he adopted the policy of taking action instead of making a fuss.

Chen Yan sat back in the main seat again, looked at everyone, and continued to arrange the work:

"We are poor at home but rich on the road. Before we go to Shanghai, we urgently need to solve the problem of funds.

The cost of purchasing production equipment is not a small amount. Let's see how we can deal with this matter?"

Zhao Gang sighed, "We can't ask the headquarters for money. If the boss knew that our independent brigade has set up our own military factory, he would definitely skin us alive."

Chen Yan knocked on the table and answered affirmatively:

"Of course we can't let the headquarters know. And during the time I'm away, Lao Zhao, you have to keep it a secret for me. Don't let any news spread."

In order to open a military factory, Chen Yan is now even a little reckless. You know, if a military commander leaves his post without permission, he will be sentenced to death.

At this time, Li Yunlong looked at Rudy with a sly smile:

"This kid's father is rich, and he also has a future brother-in-law named Song. If we ask him for some alms, everything will be solved!"

Hearing this, Rudy immediately jumped up and looked at Chen Yan guiltily:

"Don't try to hit me!

If I can't get the money and it delays your business, don't blame me, because I had a falling out with my family when I ran away."

"It turns out you're useless! Why bring you here? Just find another place to sleep."

At this time, Rudy's face was full of shame, "Deputy Brigade Commander Li, your words are a bit hurtful to my self-esteem.

Besides, I don’t want to go.”

At this moment, Chen Yan had actually thought of a way to make money, but he was worried that Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang would strongly oppose it.

Chen Yan pretended to be relaxed and cleared his throat:

"Actually, I have a way to make money, but this method is not really a method..."

Before Chen Yan finished speaking, Zhao Gang's heart skipped a beat.

The brigade commander suddenly became polite, I guess he is going to do something naughty again.

Li Yunlong, on the other hand, didn't think so much and said in a reproachful tone:

"Brother, if you have a solution, just tell us earlier. You're making everyone anxious. Please tell us quickly."

"Well... everyone knows where I come from, right?"

Li Yunlong was like a cute baby, "Well, a stinky bandit! I know!".

Suddenly Li Yunlong understood and smiled happily:

"Chen'er, do you mean to rob?"

"Yes, that's what I mean."

"Then where do you plan to rob?"

At this moment, the three people in front of him were full of expectation. Chen Yan finally mustered up the courage to say:

"Safe County Town".

“!!!”.

"Fuck, you really dare to think about it!"
