I am an industrial worker during the War of Resistance

Chapter 67 This is a fierce war
"Commander Chen and Political Commissar Liu have been staying in their rooms for a day and a night."

We're all too afraid to call him, what should we do?

Wang Ling sobbed softly as she spoke to Commander Chen and Political Commissar Liu, who were standing in the courtyard.

She didn't even dare to speak loudly in the courtyard, for fear of disturbing Chen Changzai in the cave dwelling.

Commander Chen, Political Commissar Liu, and Political Commissar He all stood in the courtyard at the entrance of the cave dwelling, frowning as they looked at the door and windows of the cave dwelling.

Commander Chen, who always spoke in a loud voice, said in a low voice, "He is now at a critical stage where he has to fight to the death."

I just listened from the window.

Listen to him saying that the data is wrong, that it shouldn't be wrong, and so on.

Although I don't understand what he's saying.

But I can sense that he's going through a battle right now.

He's in the same state right now as a commander during a fierce battle.

He's completely immersed in it.

For him, this was a fierce battle.

If we go in and disturb him now, it won't be good for him.

Let's wait until he gradually comes out of his daze before we go in.

After hearing this, both Political Commissar Liu and Political Commissar He nodded with serious expressions.

Then he asked everyone around him to leave the courtyard.

Even the three of them and Wang Ling went to stand at the entrance of the courtyard.

These two political commissars knew all too well what the mental state of a commander was like when they were in a completely immersive battlefield environment.

In that tense environment, once you enter that absolute mental state...

Therefore, he is extremely sensitive to every detail of the battlefield.

He seemed to be looking down on the entire battlefield from the sky.

at this time.

The sounds of gunfire and the shouts of messengers are the best background noise for a commander.

In this environment, the commander's mind is extremely sharp, and all the sounds of gunfire and reports have a rhythm to him.

However, if an external force suddenly interrupts this rhythm.

This would be a very damaging blow to the commander who is already fully committed.

This kind of blow is actually quite similar to the "qi deviation" in martial arts novels.

Even in real life, such situations are not uncommon.

Courtyard entrance.

Political Commissar He said, "It seems that Chang is really in a hurry this time."

He had never been in this state before.

In the past, no matter what he did, he always gave people the feeling of being at ease.

But this time I felt he was really anxious.

Political Commissar Liu gave each of them a cigarette and lit it for them.

He said, "It must be the machine gun he designed last time; none of us thought it was good."

He probably started to doubt himself, which is why he turned out this way.

For so long, whatever he did, he always succeeded.

Now that he hasn't succeeded this time, he's probably thinking about proving himself in a better way.

Taking a deep drag on his cigarette, Commander Chen said in a low voice, "There are no invincible generals in this world."

For him, encountering some setbacks in order to reach the end might actually be a good thing.

If a person's life is too smooth, they might stumble and never be able to get back up.

I feel that this matter is beneficial and harmless to him.

He has a long life ahead of him.

It's better to encounter setbacks now than later.

Only those who grow stronger through setbacks are the truly resilient.

Only through repeated tempering can steel be forged!

After hearing this, Political Commissar Liu and Political Commissar He both nodded silently.

Wang Ling, however, was so concerned that she squatted down on the steps at the entrance of the courtyard, secretly shedding tears.

"Hahaha, I knew I hadn't miscalculated. You bastard, you were just waiting for me here."

Let's see where you can run to now.

Your few variables are no problem for me.

"I only need to adjust the angle of the pallet, and you'll have to obey my commands."

Chen Chang's shouts echoed from inside the cave dwelling.

Commander Chen and his men's attention was once again drawn to the direction of the cave dwelling.

A moment later, Chen Changzai's loud laughter echoed from the cave dwelling again: "Haha, that's right, this time it's correct."

After that sound, there was suddenly silence in the cave.

Commander Chen and his men quickly ran towards the cave dwelling.

Upon reaching the entrance of the cave dwelling, the group stopped. Commander Chen tiptoed to the window again, listening intently to the sounds coming from inside.

But then he heard even snoring coming from inside the cave.

Regiment Commander Chen arrived at the door and whispered to the two political commissars, "He's asleep."

Both political commissars nodded.

Then he gently pushed open the door of the cave dwelling.

Although Chen Changzai did not allow anyone to enter and disturb him.

But his door wasn't locked from the inside.

After Commander Chen and his two companions, along with Wang Ling, tiptoed in.

Seeing Chen Changzai, he had already fallen fast asleep, slumped over his workbench.

"Wang Ling, go and spread out the bedding, then turn on the stove, and put out all the fires in the hearth," Political Commissar Liu said softly.

Wang Ling didn't say anything, she just nodded, and then went to make her bed on the kang (heated brick bed).

Three grown men gently carried Chen Changzai onto the kang (a heated brick bed) and covered him with a quilt.

Only then did he sit down on the edge of the kang (heated brick bed) and on the stool.

Wang Ling had already gone to the outer room to start a fire.

Chen Chang did not allow the stove to be placed in this bedroom.

Fear of a fire.

Political Commissar He looked at Chen Changzai's workbench and saw a thick stack of blueprints and an even thicker notebook filled with calculation data.

I couldn't help but sigh.

"It wasn't easy. It took a whole day and night to calculate so much."

This is truly inhuman work.

"If it were me, I'd rather carry a satchel charge and fight the enemy to the death than do this kind of work."

I could hear Political Commissar He muttering to himself.

Political Commissar Liu scoffed at his old subordinate and then whispered a reprimand: "Look at your pathetic self."

You've also gone to school.

Are you afraid of these difficulties?

Even though the kid wasn't afraid, he still managed to take down the enemy.

This is your battlefield.

You better remember this: on this battlefield, you are not allowed to be a deserter.

Otherwise, see how I deal with you.

"Yes, sir, I will never be a deserter," Political Commissar He replied in a low voice.

Chen Chang slept for more than ten hours.

When he opened his eyes again

He could vaguely see several people lying on his kang (a heated brick bed).

It was very dark inside the cave dwelling, and it was still dark outside.

However, Chen Changzai knew that anyone who could come to his cave dwelling could not possibly be an outsider.

No outsider could enter his cave unless all his guards outside were killed.

Since we're not strangers, let's sleep a little longer.

Before he knew it, Chen Changzai had fallen asleep again.

By the time we got outside the window, it was already broad daylight.

When the rooster had already crowed several times.

Chen Changzai opened his eyes again.

There was no one on the kang anymore, but the sound of people talking in hushed tones could be heard outside the window.

He struggled to crawl out of his warm bed.

In this chilly spring month, getting out of a warm bed is an extremely difficult challenge.

At that moment, the bedroom curtain was lifted.

Regiment Commander Chen and Political Commissar Liu walked in.

Seeing that Chen Changzai was already up, Commander Chen said, "Changzai is up."

Are you hungry? Get up and eat!

It was millet porridge, along with wheat flour pancakes and scrambled eggs.

"Get up and wash your face quickly."

None of the three, including Commander Chen, said anything to Chen Changzai to stop risking his life like that.

Because they all knew why Chen Changzai was risking his life like this.

Apart from that last breath.

His primary concern was to improve the equipment of the troops more quickly and effectively.

　Thank you to all my friends who have supported me.

　　I don't want to say more. I can only say it again: thank you for your support, my friends.
