Bright Sword: Starting from the Improved Grenade

Yan'an.

"Zhuxi, here is a telegram from Chongqing!"

The man with glasses walked into the room and handed a telegram to the majestic man.

"Chongqing?"

The majestic man took the telegram and read it.

The content of the telegram was exactly the same as the telegram Baldy received and sent.

It was as if Chen's staff had copied an extra copy and sent it to Yan'an when he called back.

"The 40th Army and the 76th Army are really stubborn!"

The domineering man muttered a few words and looked at the man wearing glasses.

"The 76th Army is the Bald Central Army. It has fought many fierce battles and has made great achievements. Its commander, Li Tiejun, is also a capable and skilled general."

"As for the 40th Army, although it has also experienced many battles, its results are not very good, and its commander Pang Bingxun is even more useless."

"Send a telegram to the Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningxia Field Army Group, and ask them to launch an offensive against the 40th Army before the 76th Army arrives."

"Do you want to transfer more troops from Shanxi?"

The man with glasses suggested: "After all, the Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningxia Field Army only has 2.8 troops. If the th Army arrives too quickly, we will have a guarantee."

"Need not!"

The domineering man waved his hand and said, "Didn't Wang Bi recently form an aviation division? Let him cooperate with the Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningxia Field Army to launch an attack on the 40th Army!"

"That's fine! With the help of the Air Force, even if the 76th Army comes, they won't get anything good!"

The Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningxia Field Army quickly received the order and began to mobilize.

"The Central Committee has ordered us to strike the invading 40th Army with all our strength and determination."

In the pre-war meeting room, Commander Zhang stood at the front, emphasizing the central government's orders.

"Let Chief of Staff Yan tell you about the deployment of the 40th Army."

"Yes."

Chief of Staff Yan stood up and walked to the map: "So far, the 46th Independent Brigade under the th Army has entered Weinan."

"However, it is worth noting that the remaining 39th Division and 106th Division of the th Army are still staying in Lantian County to rest and have no intention of moving out."

"In front of Lantian is Xi'an!"

Looking at this somewhat strange position, Deputy Commander Wang smiled wickedly: "It seems that our Commander Pang seems to have some different ideas!"

"wrong!"

Political Commissar Xi thought of something and asked Chief of Staff Yan, "Where is the 76th Army now?"

"Well-being."

Chief of Staff Yan pointed at the map and said, "They should want to enter Hanzhong from Ankang, then go out of Hanzhong to Baoji, attack Qingyang, and finally go straight to Yan'an!"

"A pincer attack?"

Deputy Commander Wang stroked his chin and asked, "Aren't they dividing too much?"

"What if the others are not using a pincer attack at all?"

Commander Zhang looked at the map and said, "The 40th Army arrived in Weinan early. It is very likely to attract the attention of the 76th Army."

"When our troops gather in Xi'an, the 76th Army will suddenly launch an attack and enter Shaanxi unimpeded!"

"Haha, openly repairing the plank road, secretly crossing Chencang!"

Deputy Commander Wang reacted: "It's a pity that we played an open card!"

"Since the 76th Army wants to take a long detour, let us let them do it!"

Commander Zhang stood up and said, "It would take him two months to get from Hanzhong to Hanzhong."

"That is to say, within two months, the 40th Army will not take the initiative to launch an offensive."

"If they don't fight, we will fight!"

"Order the Training Brigade and the 7th Security Regiment to set out immediately and eliminate the 46th Independent Brigade in Weinan."

"At the same time, send a telegram to Commander Wang, asking him to send bombers to bomb Yangguo Town and Lintong District to cut off support from Xi'an and Lantian County."

.............

Weinan City.

"Brigade Commander, should we send the 1st and 2nd Regiments to the Wei River to defend? In case the Eighth Route Army attacks us, we will be prepared!"

Independent 46th Brigade, Chief of Staff Wang Sanming suggested.

"Hey, don't worry!"

The commander of the 46th Independent Brigade, Zhao En, waved his hand and said, "We just arrived in Weinan. Why are we in such a hurry to deploy defenses?"

"Don't forget that we are allies with the Eighth Route Army now. If you rush to deploy defenses, it's obvious that you are on guard against them!"

"If others become alert, it will ruin the commander's plan, which will be terrible."

"Come on, follow me to the dinner that Mayor Li prepared for us. I heard that all the celebrities from all walks of life are coming!"

Upon hearing that there was more money to be collected, Wang Sanming, who had originally wanted to persuade Zhao En, immediately forgot about the deployment of defenses and happily followed Zhao En to attend the party.

Following the example of his superiors, Zhao En didn't care about the defense of the Wei River, and the three regiment commanders under him cared even less.

He went to the mayor's dinner, they went to the county governor's dinner, and the company and platoon leaders went to parties organized by businessmen. Anyway, everyone had their own way of playing.

The soldiers below had no intention of standing guard and gathered together to gamble and drink every day.

Or they would engage in prostitution and cause trouble. For a time, the entire Weinan was in chaos because of the 46th Independent Brigade, and the people were resentful and mourning.

"The Wei River is in front of us, and after crossing the river we will reach Weihe City."

The Teaching Brigade, the 3rd Regiment, and the Sharp Knife Platoon came to the Weihe River to gather intelligence in secret.

"its not right!"

The spearhead platoon leader, Wang, looked at the quiet Wei River in confusion.

"The 46th Independent Brigade has been at the Wei River for a week now. How come such an important river like the Wei River has no defense at all?"

"who cares!"

An Eighth Route Army soldier said with a smile: "What the Kuomintang is doing? We will know if we go over and take a look!"

"it is good!"

Platoon Leader Wang nodded and said, "Everyone, get ready. Take out the rubber rings and let's swim over."

Two minutes later, the soldiers of the spearhead platoon went into the water one after another and crossed the Wei River smoothly.

After reaching the shore and taking a short rest, the soldiers of the spearhead platoon continued to move forward.

From Baiyang Village to Mutun Village, all the way to the city wall of Weinan City, they did not encounter any obstacles!

"Wow, this 46th Independent Brigade is really bold! There are no obstacles along the way."

An Eighth Route Army soldier couldn't help but complain.

At this time, the sky brightened, the city gates opened, and people began to line up to enter and exit Weinan City.

"Xiao Li, change your clothes and come in with me. The others are waiting outside."

Platoon Leader Wang gave instructions while taking off his clothes.

"If we don't come out in two hours, you will go back and report that there is no defense from Weihe River to Weinan City, and ask them to attack quickly!"

"Yes!"

After putting on makeup, Platoon Leader Wang took Xiao Li and walked towards the city gate. They thought it would take some effort, but after being extorted of ten yuan, they were let in.

"Bah, bitch!"

Xiao Li looked at the soldiers leaving and couldn't help spitting.

"Okay, stop talking and get into the city!"

After entering the city, the two men came to a teahouse. As soon as they sat down, they heard someone complaining that people from the 46th Brigade had stolen several chickens from his house.

As soon as this man opened his mouth, others also started to complain, saying that their cloth was stolen or they were treated to a free meal. The worst case was that the women in their families were harmed by the soldiers.

"After all this time, you've only been exploiting the people!"

After listening for a while, Platoon Leader Wang felt that he had gathered enough information, so he left a few cents for tea, returned to the outskirts of the city, reunited with the soldiers of the Sharp Knife Platoon, and left Weinan.
