Devil's Army

The next morning, the Asahi labor reform team, led by the soldiers guarding them, arrived at the entrance of the coal mine one after another and began to repair the collapsed coal mine passage.

The three Japanese prisoners tied to the pillars had been starved all night, and their wounds had started to become inflamed. They were groaning, breathing out more than breathing in.

But no one cared about them, everyone was doing their job. From the moment the battalion commander shot them in the knees, he was ready to give up on the three of them, because even if they were cured, they would be a burden.

At night, when the Asahi labor camp team dragged their exhausted bodies into the shed, the three Japanese labor camp members tied to the pillars finally breathed their last.

The Asahi labor camp members in the work shed were eating dinner and watching indifferently as the soldiers dragged away the bodies of the three Japanese labor camp members.

After three days of intensive installation and repeated debugging, all the equipment of the power plant was finally installed.

Engineer Li clapped his hands and handed over the debugged equipment to the old county magistrate. He then left two old technicians to provide technical guidance and took the other technicians back to the arsenal.

Everything was ready, except for the coal. Leng Feng ordered the Diaobeishan Coal Mine Labor Reform Team to be divided into three teams, working around the clock.

The old county chief arranged for technicians to install transformers, electric boxes, and wires. The first batch of wires only ran through a few main streets and to the county hospital, county government, military camps, military fortifications and other major departments.

Due to the huge amount of work, Leng Feng arranged for troops to come and assist the old county magistrate in completing it.

Everything is going on in an orderly manner.

At this time, a soldier drove a Samurai and brought Wen Lang and He Shuzhen to find Leng Feng.

"Why are you running here without taking a rest?" Leng Feng scolded.

"I also asked him to take a rest, but he said he wanted to go out for a walk." He Shuzhen also mentioned Wenlang.

"My wound is no longer serious. Going out for a walk and exercising will help the wound heal. Come on, let's go to the office and sit for a while. I have something to talk to you about." Wen Lang said to Leng Feng.

So Leng Feng, Huilang and Wenlang went to the military camp headquarters together.

When they arrived at the regiment's operations room, Wen Lang took out a stack of information and said to Leng Feng, "This is the intelligence on the Japanese that Hui Lang seized in Yingkou. He asked someone to give it to me. I took a look and it's really informative."

"What's going on?" Leng Feng asked.

"Some time ago, we destroyed the Japanese water supply unit in Fushun. Commander Muto instructed the water supply unit headquarters in Harbin to prepare to rebuild a branch of the water supply unit."

"Are these devils done yet? We have to wipe out their headquarters." Gray Wolf cursed angrily.

"Do you know where the new water supply unit will be rebuilt?"

"The intelligence doesn't say that. But Rehe to our west is sparsely populated, and not suitable for the Japanese to capture hostages for experiments. It should still be around Fushun or Fengtian," Wenlang analyzed.

"Currently there is intelligence indicating that the Japanese in Fengtian are stockpiling combat supplies. I suspect they may attack us again, so our focus now is to prepare for war with all our strength," Leng Feng analyzed.

"Grey Wolf, go to the tribe immediately to see how the training of Black Wolf's new recruits is going. If possible, they can be dispatched to the various brigades as soon as possible to form combat effectiveness." Leng Feng said to Grey Wolf.

"Excluding the army's direct regiments, the strength of our six main brigades is close to 5 people, and each brigade has about 8000 people. Do you want to establish a seventh brigade?"

"No, the battalion and regiment cadres can't keep up, and the Northeast Army's Seventh Brigade has more than 1 people."

"Wenlang, go to the arsenal first when you return to the tribe and ask Engineer Li to give priority to the production of 150mm howitzers and 100mm anti-aircraft guns. I will first assist the old county chief to build the power grid in Tieling County."

After saying that, Gray Wolf and Wen Wolf returned to the tribe together, while Leng Feng went to the old county magistrate.

Just when Leng Feng and his men were tense and preparing for war, Song Zhipeng from Fengtian brought great news: Commander Muto died in Fengtian due to illness and failed rescue efforts.

There are many different opinions about his death. Some say he was poisoned by Puyi's poisoned wine, some say he died of a heart attack, some say he died of jaundice. Some even say he died of anger because he could not suppress the evil forces for a long time.

With the death of the old man Muto, the encirclement and suppression of Leng Feng's base came to an end. Leng Feng could focus on developing production again.

Gray Wolf also used the special forces who searched the Japanese water supply unit in Fushun last time as the main force, and formed ten teams of fifteen people, scattered around Fushun and Fengtian, searching for the Japanese's new bacterial experimental base.

After nearly a month of intensive work, Tieling County's power grid has taken shape, and Diaobeishan Coal Mine has also dug out the first truckload of coal and transported it to Tieling County.

With the arrival of this truckload of coal, the Tieling County Thermal Power Plant officially began operation.

The next night, the power plant officially switched on and began to deliver electricity. Light bulbs on the two main streets of Tieling County lit up at the same time. Almost all the residents of Tieling County ran out to the streets to see this unprecedented spectacle.

In the next step, as long as the county's economy can keep up, the old county magistrate plans to deliver electricity to every household in Tieling County. The residents of Tieling County will bid farewell to the kerosene lamp era and enter the electrification era.
