Bright Sword: Starting from the Improved Grenade

Daxia Bay.

"Boss, this is a report submitted by Kong Jie, Ding Wei, and Li Yunlong."

The brigade commander added, placing a report, a helmet and a submachine gun on the table.

"And there are also the helmets and submachine guns of the Japanese soldiers who died in the raid on the Independent Regiment last night."

The commander-in-chief opened the report and took a look at it, then picked up the helmet and submachine gun on the table and examined them, then smiled faintly.

"So, the independent regiment did help our headquarters block the bullets!"

"Judging from the report and these equipments, it should be!"

The brigade commander walked to the map and pointed to the location of Ping'an County: "Now the three of them, plus Chu Yunfei's regiment, have surrounded Ping'an County."

"What do you mean the little devil who dares to attack our headquarters? Even the Lord can't save him!"

"Haha, you have a strong desire for revenge!"

The commander-in-chief glanced at the map and joked with a smile.

"Ping'an County is a medium-sized city. Fighting with it will enrich our experience in attacking medium-sized cities!"

The brigade commander looked at the commander-in-chief and suggested.

"Ah."

The commander-in-chief nodded and said, "Send a message to the brigades, regiments, and detachments in northwest Shanxi, asking them to stop the Japanese troops supporting Ping'an County!"

"it is good."

The chief of staff put down his pen, stood up and went to send the message.

Outside Ping'an County, inside the joint command center.

"Since everyone has confirmed that the group of Japanese devils have escaped into Ping'an County, let's hand it over to our 358th Regiment!"

Chu Yunfei looked at everyone seriously.

"Haha, Brother Yunfei, we have received your intention to make amends."

Li Yunlong waved his hand in a generous manner: "But! This is our own internal matter."

"The Japanese attacked the independent regiment. I have to take revenge on them myself!"

"Old Li!"

Ding Wei looked at Li Yunlong with dissatisfaction: "I say, you should put your little thoughts aside!"

"My new Second Regiment has just been established. It is time for actual combat. I think we should do it."

"Report, Reconnaissance Company, Company Commander Xie Baoqing reporting in."

Looking at the people who suddenly came in, Kong Jie stood up and said, "Stop arguing, our independent group deserves to be the protagonist this time!"

"What nonsense are you talking about, you idiot Kong Erlun?"

Li Yunlong said with disdain: "With the combat power of your regiment, you should just fight and block it."

"Hey, Li Yunlong, don't be unconvinced. Have you seen me, the reconnaissance company commander?"

Kong Jie pointed at Xie Baoqin and said proudly: "He has an insider in Ping'an County."

"Inside help!"

Li Yunlong looked at Xie Baoqing, who was wearing a gray military uniform, and suddenly realized: "Lao Kong, what did you say his name is?"

"Thank you Baoqing!"

Although Kong Jie felt that Li Yunlong's expression was a bit strange, he still explained seriously.

"He used to be the mountain king of Dagu Mountain and Heiyun Village. Now he has joined the independent regiment and become my reconnaissance company commander."

"Black Cloud Village, Mountain King?"

Li Yunlong felt more and more guilty, so he immediately changed the subject and asked Xie Baoqing.

"What about the insider you mentioned?"

"Speaking of this, it's a long story for a child without a mother!"

"Then let's make a long story short!"

Li Yunlong said unhappily.

"The former second in command of my stronghold brought the bandits from our stronghold to join the Imperial Army. They are now in Ping'an County."

Xie Baoqing tried to keep his speech brief: "I can persuade them to open the city gate and let us in."

"This……"

Everyone hesitated for a moment, then nodded in unison: "Then let your independent regiment take the lead this time!"

…………

In Ping'an County.

Seeing the Shanmaozi coming in, the former bandits from Heiyun Village, now soldiers from Ping'an County and the Imperial Army's garrison regiment all surrounded him.

"How is the captain, what does Taijun say?"

Shanmaozi had a dark face and came to the table without saying a word. He poured a glass of water, took a sip, and put the cup down heavily.

"Don't gather around, go down and get ready!"

"what!"

Now the Imperial Army was unwilling to do so.

"Captain, there are 20,000 to 30,000 Eighth Route Army soldiers outside! If we don't run away now, we will be unable to escape when they attack the city later!"

"Yes, Second Commander, when you first joined the Imperial Army, you said you would enjoy the good life, why are you fighting for your life now?"

Listening to the buzzing sound in his ears, Bobcat became more and more annoyed.

With a "bang", Shanmaozi slammed his hand heavily on the table and said viciously.

"Now the four city gates are guarded by the Taijun. Don't even think about leaving the city. You might as well think about how to survive the attack of the Eighth Route Army!"

"Ah this..."

Everyone looked at each other and left in disappointment.

In the slums in the east of the city, in an inconspicuous wooden house.

Several members of the Imperial Army who had just left Shanmaozi came here quietly.

"Everyone, it seems that the Second In Command is determined to follow the Japs!"

"Damn it, if I had known this would happen, I should have followed the boss. Even if I couldn't get rich, I wouldn't have to worry like this!"

"You don't have to get stabbed in the spine!"

As everyone discussed the matter, their dissatisfaction with Shanmaozi was evident on the paper.

Seeing that the emotions were almost stirred up, one of the burly men with scars on his face suddenly said, "Why don't we just join the Eighth Route Army?"

"..."

As soon as these words were spoken, the room fell silent instantly. A tall and thin man in the crowd narrowed his eyes and looked at the burly man.

"Scar, if you have a way, just tell me. Now that we are here, the meaning is self-evident."

"it is good!"

The burly man slapped the table and stood up: "Let me tell everyone clearly!

"Early this morning, the boss sent someone to contact me."

"He is now the reconnaissance company commander of the independent regiment. I dare not say more. As long as we can open the city gate, the boss will ensure that we survive!"

"Just survive?"

Some people in the crowd were dissatisfied. According to their idea, if they could not get an official position for the contribution of surrendering the city, they should at least be given some luxurious money!

"hehe…"

The burly man sneered: "Don't forget, there are 20,000 to 30,000 Eighth Route Army soldiers outside now!"

"The muzzle of the gun is blocking everyone's head. Now we are the ones begging them, not them begging us!"

"Scar is right!"

The tall and thin man immediately supported: "There are only 600 Japanese soldiers in our city right now, plus our regiment, a total of people."

"Everyone, think carefully. Once the Eighth Route Army starts attacking, how long can we hold them off?"

"A day? Half a day? An hour?"

"Brother Gao is right, I did it!"

"That's right. Staying alive is the most important thing now. If you lose your life, you will lose everything."

Seeing everyone agreeing, the tall and thin man and the burly man looked at each other and smiled happily.
