Bright Sword: This unit is really ruthless

"Commander, the Japanese...the Japanese suddenly launched an attack on our base. The political commissar...the political commissar led the troops to stop the enemy and asked me to come back to report..." Monk Wei said intermittently.

"Damn it, these bastards really know how to pick the right time!" Kong Jie cursed angrily, pushed Monk Wei aside, turned around and shouted to the people around him: "Come here! Pass my order, everyone gather and set off immediately!"

"Yes!"

The surrounding bandits responded loudly and turned around to prepare.

Kong Jie walked up to Zhang Ling, looked down at him, and said in a deep voice: "Boy, you're lucky. I don't have time to talk nonsense with you now. I'll settle the score with you after I deal with these bastards!"

After saying that, he waved his hand and led a group of bandits towards the southeast.

Zhang Ling looked at Kong Jie and others going away, feeling anxious. He knew that the base of Li Yunlong's independent regiment was in the southeast. If he was not mistaken, the attacking devils should be Yamamoto Ikki's special forces!

Yamamoto Ikki, a name that all Chinese soldiers are terrified of! The special forces he led were well-equipped, well-trained, and good at mountain jungle warfare. They had sneaked into the rear of our army many times to carry out decapitation operations, causing huge losses to the Eighth Route Army.

Li Yunlong, the hot-tempered and brave leader of the independent regiment, had made great achievements in the anti-Japanese war. But at the same time, he was also a military commander who was brave and resourceful.

However, facing an opponent like Yamamoto Ikki, even Li Yunlong would inevitably face a tough battle.

No! I have to find a way to inform them!

Zhang Ling was extremely anxious and struggled desperately to break free from the ropes on his body. However, the ropes were tied very tightly and no matter how hard he tried, it was useless.

"Damn it!"

Zhang Ling cursed in his heart, and watched Kong Jie and others walking further and further away, feeling extremely anxious.

At this moment, he suddenly felt a slight sound of footsteps coming from behind him. He turned his head and saw a thin soldier in a ragged military uniform walking towards him on tiptoe.

When the young soldier saw Zhang Ling wake up, he was stunned at first, then a hint of joy appeared on his face. He walked quickly to him and asked in a low voice: "Are you... are you one of us?"

Zhang Ling saw this and suddenly felt a glimmer of hope in his heart. He nodded and said quickly, "It's one of us! I'm from the Independent Regiment of the 129th Brigade of the 386th Division of the Eighth Route Army!"

"Independent Regiment?" Upon hearing this, the young soldier's eyes widened and he said in surprise, "You are really from the Independent Regiment? Great! I am also from the Independent Regiment, my name is Wang Erzhu!"

"Brother Erzhu, the situation is urgent now and there is no time to talk more. Please help me untie the rope. I have something important to tell the captain!" Zhang Ling said anxiously.

"Okay!" Wang Erzhu took out a dagger without any hesitation and cut the rope that tied Zhang Ling.

"Brother, thank you very much! I will go find the leader now, you..." Zhang Ling was interrupted by Wang Erzhu before he could finish his words.

"Brother Zhang, I'll go with you!" Wang Erzhu said with a firm face.

Zhang Ling looked at the thin but extremely determined young soldier in front of him, and a warm current surged in his heart. He patted Wang Erzhu on the shoulder and said in a deep voice: "Good brother! Let's go!"

After saying that, the two of them crouched down and, under the cover of night, chased in the direction where Li Yunlong and the others had left.

Under the cover of night, two figures quickly shuttled between the woods. They had only one belief in their hearts: to find Li Yunlong and stop Yamamoto Ikki's conspiracy!

However, they didn't know that what was waiting for them would be a more brutal battle...

"Li...Li Yunlong?" Zhang Ling widened his eyes, looked at the familiar figure, and exclaimed in his heart.

The thin figure was Li Yunlong. He looked younger than in the TV series, with a slightly immature look on his face, but his fearlessness was exactly the same. He ran to Kong Jie and said breathlessly, "Captain, the political commissar... the political commissar... he was... he was... "

"What's wrong with Lao Zhao? Can you speak more clearly?" Kong Jie slapped Li Yunlong on the back of the head and cursed angrily.

"The political commissar...he was captured by the Japanese!" Li Yunlong covered his head and said anxiously.

"What?!" Kong Jie was shocked when he heard this. He grabbed Li Yunlong by the collar and shouted, "What's going on? Explain yourself clearly!"

Li Yunlong was frightened by Kong Jie's action and quickly told him everything that had happened.

It turned out that the New 1st Regiment was ordered to attack the county town occupied by the Japanese, and after a fierce battle, they finally succeeded in taking the city. However, just as everyone was preparing to celebrate the victory, a group of Japanese remnants suddenly rushed back from outside the city and took away the political commissar Zhao Gang in the chaos.

"Damn it, these damn Japs, I'm going to fight them to death!" After hearing this, Kong Jie was so angry that he cursed loudly, pulled out the big knife from his waist and was ready to take people to chase them.

"Captain, wait!" Zhang Ling suddenly shouted.

"Who are you, kid?" Kong Jie turned his head to look at Zhang Ling and asked impatiently.

"Captain, I was sent by the Central Committee and I have important intelligence to report to you!" Zhang Ling thought quickly and lied.

"Sent by the Central Government?" Kong Jie looked at Zhang Ling suspiciously. Seeing that he was wearing the uniform of the National Army, but not like those softies in the Allergy Department, he couldn't help but believe it a little, "What information do you have? Tell me now!"

"Captain, I'm afraid the Japanese have other purposes in taking the political commissar this time!" Zhang Ling said in a deep voice, "As far as I know, the Japanese are currently developing a poison gas bomb called 'mustard gas'. They probably want to take the political commissar away..."

"What? Poison gas bomb?!" Kong Jie was shocked and his face turned pale. Although he had never seen a poison gas bomb, he knew from Zhang Ling how terrible this weapon was, and he felt a chill on his back.

"Are you telling the truth?" Kong Jie grabbed Zhang Ling's collar and asked anxiously.

"It's absolutely true!" Zhang Ling nodded vigorously. "Captain, if the Japanese really succeeded in developing poison gas bombs, the consequences would be disastrous!"

Kong Jie was silent for a moment. He knew that Zhang Ling was right. Once a weapon like poison gas bombs was used, it would cause large-scale casualties. At that time, not to mention the New 1st Regiment, even the entire Eighth Route Army would be severely damaged.

"Damn it, these damn devils are so cruel!" Kong Jie gritted his teeth and cursed, "No, I have to go and save Lao Zhao quickly. I can't let the devil's conspiracy succeed!"

"Captain, I'll go with you!" Zhang Ling said quickly.

"You kid?" Kong Jie looked Zhang Ling up and down. Seeing that although he was tied up, his eyes were unusually firm, he couldn't help but feel a little favorable towards him. "Okay, you kid, just follow me! Li Yunlong, take your men and call all the brothers. Let's go and rescue the political commissar together!"

"Yes!" Li Yunlong responded, turned around and ran.

"Captain, what should we do now?" Zhang Ling asked.

"The Japanese took Lao Zhao away, and they must be trying to send him to their lair," Kong Jie said after a moment's hesitation. "We need to find out which direction they are going first."

"Captain, I know!" Li Yunlong suddenly ran back and said, "I just found some Japanese footprints outside the city. They should have gone west."

"West?" Kong Jie frowned. "To the west is Ping'an County. The devil's lair shouldn't be there, right?"

"Captain, have you forgotten?" Li Yunlong said with a grin, "Ten miles east of Ping'an County, there is a secret base of the devils. We have scouted there before."

"You mean... Black Wind Ridge?" Kong Jie's eyes lit up and he immediately understood what Li Yunlong meant.

Black Wind Ridge is a strategically located area that is easy to defend but difficult to attack. The devils built a secret base there to store munitions and conduct secret experiments. If Zhao Gang was imprisoned there, it would be dangerous.

"Captain, let's go quickly, it will be too late if we are any later!" Li Yunlong urged.

"Okay, let's set off now!" Kong Jie nodded, waved his hand, and led Zhang Ling, Li Yunlong and others straight to Black Wind Ridge.

......

The night enveloped the earth, and the mountains and forests were silent, with only the occasional cries of wild animals.

Kong Jie and others took advantage of the night and quietly reached the foot of Black Wind Ridge.

"Commander, the Japanese base is ahead." Li Yunlong pointed at a dark group of buildings in front and said in a low voice.

Kong Jie nodded, crouched down, and led everyone to a hidden place to observe the movements of the Japanese.

The area around the base was brightly lit and heavily guarded, with Japanese patrols passing by them from time to time.

"Damn, the security is pretty tight," Kong Jie cursed in a low voice, "It seems we have to find a way to sneak in."

"Captain, I have a solution!" Zhang Ling suddenly said.

"What do you have in mind, kid?" Kong Jie asked.

Zhang Ling leaned close to Kong Jie's ear and whispered his plan.

After hearing this, Kong Jie's eyes lit up, and he patted Zhang Ling on the shoulder and praised: "Good boy, you are really good!"

Zhang Ling's brain was working rapidly. Li Yunlong, Kong Jie, and the Independent Regiment, these characters who originally only existed in TV dramas, now appeared vividly before him, forcing him to believe that he had really traveled through time!

"Captain Li...Captain Li!" Zhang Ling called out tentatively, his voice hoarse from long periods of thirst.

Li Yunlong heard the voice and turned around abruptly, staring at Zhang Ling with his tiger eyes like an angry lion. "Who are you? How do you know me?"

"I..." Zhang Ling was about to explain but was rudely interrupted by Kong Jie.

"Captain, this guy is sneaky, maybe he's a spy for the Japanese!" Kong Jie said, kicking Zhang Ling in the stomach, "Tell me! Who is this guy?"

"Cough cough..." Zhang Ling felt a sharp pain from being kicked, and his internal organs seemed to be displaced. He raised his head with difficulty and looked at the two living legends in front of him, his heart filled with a sense of absurdity.
