Bright Sword: This unit is really ruthless

Boss Zhao walked up to Zhao Gang and put the plate down happily.

"Captain Zhao, I've prepared it for you. Please enjoy it."

Zhao Gang also nodded with a smile, eating the braised beef and drinking a little wine.

"Boss Zhao, Heli County is now undergoing a major expansion and development."

"As long as we persevere through this period, we will be able to build our business."

"Don't worry, there might be so many customers that you won't be able to handle them all."

Hearing what Zhao Gang said, Boss Zhao smiled and cupped his hands and said, "Thank you for your good words."

"In short, these little devils are not human either. Wait until your army drives them away."

"Then our lives will be better..."

Suddenly, there was chaos outside.

Both of them were stunned for a moment.

Then, I heard an Eighth Route Army soldier outside shouting, "Don't panic."

"We are arresting traitors."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Gang stood up and walked out.

I saw several Eighth Route Army soldiers escorting a man towards the county government on the street.

Zhao Gang quickly stepped forward and asked, "Is this man a traitor?"

"Report to Captain Zhao, this person is marking the bombing signs for the Japanese air force."

"We caught him red-handed and he has confessed everything. We are taking him back for interrogation."

"Okay." Zhao Gang nodded and looked at the traitor in front of him with disdain.

"brute!"

Back in the tavern again, Zhao Gang was eating happily.

When I went to see the boss, I just chatted with him in a casual manner.

During the conversation, Boss Zhao also learned about it from Zhao Gang's words.

There have been big moves in Heli County recently, and the 772nd Independent Regiment has received a new batch of weapons.

These weapons were obtained by Zhang Ling, the head of the group.

Then, Boss Zhao deliberately asked about the day he saw the Eighth Route Army soldiers pulling a lot of cannons into the city.

Basically most people knew about this, so Zhao Gang did not hide it.

I told Boss Zhao directly that the 772 Independent Regiment has now upgraded its muskets to more advanced ones.

There are 90 cannons alone.

Now Boss Zhao was also panicked.

After all, 90 cannons are no joke.

After all, Boss Zhao is from the Special High Technology Department and he knows very well what to do in such a situation.

What does it mean that the 772nd Independent Regiment has 90 cannons?

That means that if the 772nd Independent Regiment is willing, then even the 772nd Independent Regiment is fully capable of attacking the city.

This is where the real fear comes in.

After Zhao Gang left, he immediately went to the kitchen to find the boss.

"You should immediately find an excuse to close the store if anyone asks."

"Just say that someone in my family is sick and I took them to see a doctor," said Boss Zhao.

"Hayi!"

Not long after, Boss Zhao disguised himself and quietly went out of the back door of the tavern and left the city.

Nowadays, the city walls of Heli County have basically been demolished, and there are basically no city walls left.

In addition, there was bustling construction everywhere, so no one cared about where the people of Heli County were going.

Soon, Boss Zhao secretly headed towards Taiyuan.

Three days later, Boss Zhao arrived in Taiyuan City and immediately found the intelligence personnel of Taiyuan Special High Technology Department.

At this time, the garrison in Taiyuan City had been replaced by Terauchi Hisaichi's Second Army.

Terauchi Hisaichi's Second Army had 40,000 elite Japanese soldiers under its command.

It also includes an aviation regiment, ten artillery battalions and two tank companies.

It can be said that the combat effectiveness is much stronger than the previous First Army of Yoshio Shinozuka.

After receiving the news from Boss Zhao, the people from the Special High Technology Department immediately came to report to Terauchi Hisaichi.

"Commander, according to the information from our intelligence officer Yamada-kun in Heli County."

"The 772nd Independent Regiment in Heli County now has 90 howitzers, and a large number of Eighth Route Army troops have joined."

"According to preliminary estimates, the 772nd Independent Regiment has at least 2.2 people."

"Ten thousand people!"

Terauchi Shouichi narrowed his eyes and said, "I didn't expect that this mysterious team of the Eighth Route Army would be so powerful."

"2.2 people, what on earth is the 772nd Independent Regiment relying on to support itself?"

"Even if the local people support them, it is impossible for them to support such a large army."

Terauchi Juichi's guess was correct, such a large team.

The daily expenses alone are staggering.

If one wants to support this team of 2.2 people, it would require at least the population of two or three large cities like Taiyuan.

After all, the taxes involved alone are already enormous.

Not to mention supplies such as food and industry.

In any way, the 772nd Independent Regiment of the Eighth Route Army could never have been of such a scale.

This is too exaggerated.

Terauchi Hisaichi didn't believe that the Eighth Route Army had really developed any new technology.

The people of an entire county can afford such a large army.

But what the First Army had experienced before was completely real.

Such an elite Empire's First Army was completely wiped out by a beggar army like the Eighth Route Army.

What is this concept?

Therefore, even though Terauchi Juichi did not believe it in his heart, he did not dare to despise it.

"The Special High Technology Division quickly eliminated the investigators and thoroughly understood the situation in Heli County."

"If possible, try to arrange for investigators to live in Heli County."

"Make sure to find out all the information inside."

"Hayi!"

……

Three full months passed.

Nowadays, the weather in northwest Shanxi has also entered summer.

The soldiers also changed into single pieces of clothing.

The sun is shining brightly every day, but I am still very tired.

During this period, Zhang Ling would occasionally lead one or two battalions out to fight guerrilla warfare.

Earn some points or something so that I can buy summer uniforms for the soldiers.

Not to mention, the current treatment of the Eighth Route Army's 772nd Independent Regiment is comparable to that of the U.S. Army.

Many soldiers joined the 772nd Independent Regiment because their nutrition was adequate.

Soon the individual combat quality increased rapidly.

Can't stop it.

In addition, the military factory in Heli County is also gradually being improved.

The production lines for heavy machine guns, howitzers and other equipment have all been updated.

Today, Heli County has become not only self-sufficient, but can also provide some equipment to the troops of the Eighth Route Army Headquarters.

But these things cannot be given yet.

It’s not easy to produce them, so I have to keep some stock for myself.

Don’t let the time come when we are all killed in the battle with the Japanese and there is no one to replenish us.

The artillery battalion of the 772nd Independent Regiment was also in place during these three months.

After slowly running in, they began to be able to exert their true combat effectiveness.

After the inspection, Zhang Ling became more confident in the combat effectiveness of the 772 Independent Regiment.

Now, as long as the boss gives the order, it won’t be a big problem to take it down too far.

The troops, or to be more precise, relying on these guys in our hands, we can easily liberate half of northwestern Shanxi.
