Sword of Light: I Can Summon the Fourth Disaster

After the rumbling of artillery fire stopped, Ding Beice's 201st Regiment climbed up Blind Ridge.

A regiment of soldiers stepped on the loose soil and attacked towards the ridge without encountering any decent resistance along the way.

Battalion commander Wang Yucheng stepped on the loose soil, looked at the broken limbs on the ground, and spat.

"Damn it, the artillery fire was too intense, and the Japanese were blasted into a pile of meat paste."

Wu Yuanqi, the instructor of the first battalion, wiped his sweat on the side and said, "The top of the hill of Blind Man's Ridge has been reduced by at least five or six meters by the artillery firepower. When our soldiers charged, it was effortless."

Wang Yucheng squinted his eyes and looked around, then said, "That's true. When the officers rushed up, they said there were dense trenches on the top of the hill."

"After we came up, we couldn't see the communication trench, but the loose soil on the enemy's position was already above our knees."

Wu Yuanqi nodded: "Under such heavy fire, it is impossible for the devils to survive."

"Captain, do you think we should go one step further and entangle the remaining Japanese troops?"

Wang Yucheng picked up the telescope and looked down the mountain. Sure enough, he saw some Japanese soldiers in shit-yellow military uniforms fleeing in a panic.

"Let the officers lead the submachine gun platoon and assault rifle platoon in the front, and we will lead the rest of the troops to follow behind. We must stop these fleeing Japanese remnants!"

"Yes!"

……

"Niang Xipi!"

"Respect is incompetent, has lost power and territory, and has watched the bandit army grow stronger."

An angry curse was heard from Mr. Chang's office in Shancheng.

Mr. Chang looked at the telegram in his hand and slammed it on the table.

"Niang Xipi!"

"Our national government has exhausted all its manpower and resources for Zhongtiao Mountain. Two hundred thousand troops disappeared without a trace overnight. Junru, what do you think we should do?"

As he spoke, Mr. Chang turned and looked at Wei Junru who was sitting opposite him.

Commander Wei naturally knew the ins and outs of this. When he was on the front line, the generals under him reported to him more than once that some of his troops had defected to the Eighth Route Army as an organized unit.

But he had no way to stop it, as he had a good relationship with the Eighth Route Army. Moreover, the Eighth Route Army fought well, which reduced the pressure on his Zhongtiaoshan defense line, so he just let it go.

However, in the mountain city, he had not been sitting on the bench for long before he received a call from Mr. Chang. From what he said, it seemed that the 200,000-strong army of the Zhongtiao Mountain State Government had disappeared.

"President, I have been away from Shanxi for a long time, and I don't know much about the current situation in Shanxi. It would be better for you to ask Commander Yan, he may have some clues on this matter."

Wei Junru was practicing Tai Chi skillfully. He had not expected that He Jingzhi, despite his great reputation, was such a despicable person.

He didn't even realize that he was being sidelined by his subordinates. If he had really calmed down and found out, he would have known who the biggest human trafficker in Shanxi was.

At the beginning, he sold an adjuster to Xingxingdiandian, and Xingxingdiandian gave him 100 million US dollars just for tea and water fees, which was a huge sum of money.

Now that he had been recalled to the mountain city, he had wanted to contact the ambassador of the United States and use his channels to seek asylum abroad.

The anti-Japanese situation is now very clear. In his eyes, the current Nationalist government is no different from the previous one, and its collapse is only a matter of time.

Now he might as well rely on the huge sum of money in his hands to go abroad to learn some advanced things, and then come back to build the Dragon Kingdom after the war is won.

While Wei Junru was thinking, Mr. Chang also considered Wei Junru's suggestion.

He also knew that Wei Junru had been away from Shanxi for several months. Shanxi had undergone tremendous changes during these months, and the reason why Wei Junru was invited here was actually to let him take on some responsibilities.

But Wei Junru was not timid and refused to accept the challenge, so he could only follow his advice and contact the commander-in-chief of the Second War Zone.

Thinking of this, Mr. Chang laughed and said to Wei Junru: "Junru, since you don't understand, why don't you go back and have a rest. I'll contact you if there is anything."

"Boss, I will take my leave now."

Upon hearing this, Wei Junru stood up, saluted, then turned around and left the office.

Mr. Chang looked at his back, tapping his fingers on the armrest of the sofa, wondering what he was thinking.

After the office door was closed, Mr. Chang stood up and walked to his desk, picked up the phone and said, "Attendant's office? Ask Yunong to come see me."

……

Xiyang City, the headquarters of the International Youth Column

Xiao Zongmin took the telegram handed over by Xiao Lin, read it carefully for a while, and put it aside.

“How many letters is this?”

"Commander-in-chief, it's the twelfth one." Xiao Lin replied respectfully.

After Xiao Zongmin lit a cigarette, he asked in annoyance, "So what do you think of their application?"

Looking at the smoky office, Xiao Lin knew that Xiao Zongmin had smoked a lot today, and the room was almost like a fairyland.

Knowing that he was upset, Xiao Lin pretended not to know and said, "I don't know."

Seeing his look, Xiao Zongmin suddenly laughed.

"Hahahaha, I don't know, what a great I don't know!"

"Xiao Lin, have the telecommunications department silence all radio stations at the headquarters except for those that connect to the reorganization and synthesis divisions. Go to Xiyang Airport and use the Air Force's radio to contact them."

"When the higher-ups ask us, we'll just say we don't know."

Seeing Xiao Zongmin happy, Xiao Lin knew that he was out of options and could only choose to cover up his mistake.

"I'll do it right away." He had no choice but to agree and ran out of the office in a hurry.

As soon as I ran out of the office, I bumped into Xiao Wen who came to report.

"Brother Wen, I'm sorry, I didn't see you."

Looking at Xiao Lin who looked anxious, Xiao Wen said somewhat dissatisfiedly: "You are in such a hurry, do you still look like the head of the telecommunications department?"

"Besides, this is the headquarters of our column. You will affect the work of other comrades if you do this."

Xiao Lin scratched his head awkwardly and explained to Xiao Wen in a low voice: "Brother Wen, isn't the commander-in-chief in a bad mood? He just came up with a solution that is not a solution, and I am rushing to implement it."

Upon hearing that Xiao Zongmin was in a bad mood, Xiao Wen grabbed Xiao Lin and walked towards the telecommunications department.

"Brother Wen, aren't you going to report to the commander-in-chief?" Xiao Lin couldn't help but feel confused as he watched Xiao Wen leave.

Xiao Wen smiled bitterly and complained to Xiao Lin: "I'm not a fool. If the commander-in-chief is in a bad mood, I'd better not disturb him."

"Our training team is already short of people. I came here to ask the commander-in-chief to reduce the tasks of the training team. Now he is in a bad mood, so I'd better not cause trouble."

When Xiao Lin heard this, he immediately suspected that he, as the head of the telecommunications department, was out of touch with some information.

He looked at the teaching team's tasks during this period and found that they were not fully booked!

"Brother Wen, I remember you guys were quite free, weren't you?"
