Draw the sword and cure the fear of insufficient firepower

Trying hard to calm himself down, Lin Tian closed the system panel.

Lying in bed, my thoughts were flooding in my mind and I felt a sleepiness I had never felt before.

Lin Tian slowly closed his eyes and fell asleep.

Just as Lin Tian was soundly sleeping, the sun just rose from the east early the next morning.

A ray of warm light shone on the earth, and people took to the streets to start a new day.

"Sell newspapers!"

“Big event!”

"'The Eighth Route Army completely wiped out the Japanese Fourth Brigade'..."

"Sir, please give me today's newspaper..."

"'A great victory that inspires the nation'!"

"Madam, today's newspaper is free..."

"Sell newspapers!"

"Young Hero, Champion Hou is alive..."

Many newsboys were running around the streets carrying newspapers from major newspapers.

Tears glistened in his eyes, and even his voice was choked with sobs, his joy was beyond words.

"what?!"

"Hurry, hurry, little brother, give me a newspaper!"

"Give me one!"

"Give me one too!"

"Waiter, go get me a newspaper!"

After hearing the newsboy's voice, everyone on the street stopped what they were doing. The excited crowd formed more than a dozen circles, surrounding the dozen newsboys.

Everyone rushed to get the newspaper.

In less than five minutes, all the newspapers in the newsboy's hands were snatched away.

Those who grabbed the newspaper couldn't wait to open it. On the front page, there was a majestic headline.

Those who couldn't get the newspaper crowded around those who got it and read it together.

Some people even stood on a platform holding newspapers and read aloud to the crowd.

Everyone laughed and cried as they welcomed this hard-earned victory.

In some places, schools were closed and students and teachers took to the streets holding banners to celebrate the victory.

In some places, restaurants give alms for three days to celebrate with the people.

Today is destined to be an exciting day for all Chinese people. It has been a long time since we have had such a resounding victory.

All recent talks about national destruction and surrender have been refuted!

The national self-confidence, which had been depressed for a long time, was boosted again!

This is a shot in the arm for all the Chinese people!

The national anti-Japanese situation is very good because of Lin Tian!

……

In a luxurious mansion far in the southwest.

A man with a serious expression sat in his office, listening to the report of one of his senior generals with his eyes closed.

"Sir, this time the Eighth Route Army captured the Qingshan Prisoner of War Camp with a force of more than 700 men."

"Then we will reorganize our prisoners in the POW camp on the spot."

"Ultimately, with a total force of about 1400 troops, we wiped out more than 7000 members of the Fourth Brigade of the Japanese, with only more than casualties."

"At the same time, the 129th Brigade of the 386th Division of the Eighth Route Army blocked the Eighth Mixed Brigade of the Japanese in the direction of Ping'an County and wiped out another 3500 enemies."

"This time, a total of more than 10,000 enemies were killed."

"Sir, this is really unbelievable..."

After reading the battle report in his hand, the general looked at the man sitting on the sofa in front of him with excitement.

After listening to the report from the senior general next to him, the commander waved his hand. Although he was already upset, he couldn't show it on his face.

"Ci Chen, you are from Shanxi, what do you think?"

The commander asked calmly, his emotions undetectable.

The senior general replied respectfully: "Sir, I think this is a great victory for the Chinese army in recent times."

"Recently, the Wang Puppet regime's theory of saving the country in a roundabout way and the theory of national destruction in society have been very popular!"

"It caused some of our soldiers and civilians to lose their anti-Japanese sentiment and greatly shook our will to resist Japan."

“There is pessimism across the country.”

"Although this battle was not fought by us, the Eighth Route Army is now part of the National Army's battle sequence."

“So, whether it is from the perspective of a united front or in terms of dispelling the pessimism among our military and civilians, it is very powerful.”

"If we were asked to annihilate more than 10,000 Japanese soldiers, we would have to mobilize hundreds of thousands of troops to do it. But the Eighth Route Army was able to do it with just a brigade. It's incredible."

"I think we should send a telegram to the whole country to commend him."

The officer thought for a long time, frowning.

"At the beginning of the war, we only gave the Eighth Route Army three divisions and six brigades, but as things have developed to the current situation, the Eighth Route Army has grown to hundreds of thousands of people."

"It's beyond our control. I've said it before, since ancient times, to fight against foreign enemies, we must first stabilize the country..."

"We can't just let it grow. We have to take a long-term view."

"I don't understand why everyone is talking about the Eighth Route Army but criticizing us."

"Especially this platoon, which was able to wipe out an entire brigade of the Japanese with only 700 people."

"It's simply unbelievable. If we don't have control over such a force, I will not be able to sleep or eat well..."

"Ci Chen, I want all the information about this unit..."

The officer had a cold face, and kept tapping the floor with his cane. There was a chill in his words as he spoke slowly.

……

Inside the Daxiawan headquarters.

General Lao threw a commendation order on the table and said to the chief of staff and the division commander beside him with a smile: "I think the Central Army is too stingy."

"They only gave me a piece of paper, nothing practical at all."

"Give this paper to Lin Tian. He may find it too prickly to wipe his butt..."

"We are fighting fiercely in the front, and their Central Army and Shanxi-Suiyuan Army are hiding far away and watching the excitement."

"Now that they have won the battle, they know to come out and guide public opinion. It seems that their superiors are doing a good job."

"What a good calculation."

"However, this time Lin Tian really made us proud."

"It seems that the commander of the First Military Division deserves the title."

After that, the three of them burst into laughter.

The Chief of Staff said: "Boss Lao, I think we should also give Lin Tian a reward."

"Although the Central Army's commendation is insignificant, it is not right for us to not express our gratitude even though they have given it to us."

General Lao pointed at the chief of staff with a pencil and said with a smile, "I have also thought about this matter. Let's leave it to you, old man."

"Although we can't offer any rewards, the meaning is still there."

……

Laowangshan, the First Military Sub-district.

Lin Tian had a good sleep and when he woke up it was already the afternoon of the next day.

There was a lot of noise outside, everyone was laughing and shouting, it was quite lively.

Pushing open the door, Lin Tian walked into the yard.

When the monk heard the noise, he immediately came over with the food. As Lin Tian's bodyguard, the monk woke up and saw that Lin Tian was still sleeping, so he kept guarding Lin Tian's door.

"Commander, you are awake."

"This is the meal the kitchen staff left for you. It's still hot. Please eat it quickly."

"I have something else to report to you!"

The monk said with a silly smile.

"Oh?"

"What's going on?"

Stretching lazily, Lin Tian took the bowl of rice from the monk and asked with a yawn, "I am really hungry after sleeping for so long."

"Hey, it's like this..."

"We have captured a few Japanese women."

"It's still locked up in our warehouse..."

"Do you think it's time to ask them to serve you..."

The monk rubbed his hands and smiled with a wink.

"what?!"

"You are a playboy!"

"Bai has been practicing in Shaolin Temple for so long."

"Didn't your master teach you Buddhism?"

"I now seriously doubt that you are not from Shaolin Temple."

"Look at you, you're drinking and eating meat, and now you're still thinking about this Japanese bitch."

"Send these Japanese women back, we don't want them."

Lin Tian originally wanted to send it to the headquarters and let the leaders of the headquarters handle it.

But then I thought that these were all geishas, ​​and there was no point in handing them over to the headquarters, which would only cause trouble for Mr. Lao and his men.

We can't let the people at headquarters watch geisha performances every day, that would be a disaster.

or……

Give it to Li Yunlong?

Lin Tian thought of this and smirked.

When he was in the independent regiment, Li Yunlong talked about the Japanese women every day.

Lin Tian's evil taste suddenly came out.

However, Lin Tian quickly dismissed this idea.

Although Li Yunlong talked about the Japanese women every day, it was just a joke.

After much thought, I decided to send it back to the Japanese.

"Commander, don't...don't."

"Why send such a good Japanese woman back..."

"Look, I'm a grown man. Although I can help you wash your feet and bring you water, I can't help you sleep."

“I still think I should stay.”

"How can a heroic figure like the commander not have a woman to serve him?"

The monk was interrupted by Lin Tian before he could finish his words.

Lin Tian said to the monk seriously: "Monk, remember this!"

"We are the people's soldiers!"

"Not the old warlord!"

“We have discipline!”

"Don't say that kind of thing anymore!"

When the monk saw Lin Tian being so serious, he touched his big bald head and wondered if he had been wrong.

So that's not what the Commander meant...
