Bright Sword: Follow Kong's fun and build the strongest military industry

Liu's father was a man of great character, filled with patriotism. He had previously raised various military supplies to support the army in the war of resistance. All the factories under his command were working overtime to produce various supplies, which were then delivered to the front lines free of charge for the soldiers to fight the Japanese.

Unfortunately, even though the Chinese soldiers paid a heavy price with their indomitable spirit, and even suffered hundreds of thousands of casualties, the battle ultimately failed because of the vast difference in national strength between the two countries.

After all, Japan is an industrialized nation and one of the great powers on Earth, while China is just a typical agricultural country that has suffered nearly a century of humiliation at the hands of foreign powers. Its industrial strength is negligible, and the two are simply not on the same level.

Even if all forces in China were united and put all their resources to the test, including the Sichuan Army, Guangxi Army, Yunnan Army, Guizhou Army, Hunan Army, and even the Central Army, everyone was bleeding and fighting desperately on the battlefield.

This is a national war, a life-or-death struggle between two nations, not the childish games of the past when warlords fought amongst themselves, where the loser could escape unscathed and become a wealthy man.

However, once the national war is lost, apart from those spineless traitors and sellouts, all the conscientious and passionate Chinese people will become slaves of a conquered nation, which is something no one wants to see.

It was precisely because of this that everyone put aside past grievances and united closely to fight the invaders to the death.

Although they lost the battle, it thwarted the invaders' plot and bought time for coastal businesses and factories to relocate inland.

Unfortunately, the Liu family's factory was not relocated in time and was forcibly seized by the enemy. Even Liu's father died under mysterious circumstances.

Fortunately, Liu's father had some foresight. Towards the end of the battle, he sent his wife, children, and elderly parents to the rear. Money can be earned back, but people are gone forever.

Everything was fine until Liu Yifan, unwilling to obey his family's arrangements, returned to Shanghai with some classmates and formed a small group to oppose the Japanese invaders at every turn.

The Da Feng Tang team is in charge of intelligence work and knows this area inside and out. Moreover, this small team is exactly what they need right now.

However, "the ideal is very rich, but the reality is very harsh."

The Japanese devils are not so easy to defeat; otherwise, we would have driven them out of the country long ago, instead of allowing the invaders to be so arrogant.

Zhang Yifan was just a scholar, as were his classmates. Their activities in Shanghai were mostly minor, and the damage they caused to the enemy was truly indescribable.

Before leaving, Kong Hao specifically instructed Da Feng Tang to take good care of teams that were genuinely committed to fighting the Japanese and had potential for development.

Liu Yifan's team has already registered with Dafengtang, and this time, taking advantage of the tunnel digging opportunity, they will gather these professionals together.

To be honest, it's a huge waste to send these highly educated people to fight the Japanese as ordinary soldiers.

Scholars have their own ways of serving the country. People in China who can attend university are the most precious treasures, and we must use them where they are most needed.

The Da Feng Tang plans to build numerous secret bases in Shanghai and open various branch halls.

The Japanese have suffered such a huge loss this time. Once they recover, they will definitely launch a fierce counterattack. That's when the real test will begin.

Fighting the Japanese was a long-term process. It required constantly depleting the enemy's resources to ultimately defeat them. A quick victory was completely unacceptable.

When that time comes, Da Feng Tang will have to implement the "three burrows for a cunning rabbit" tactic, which will involve building a large number of secret bases. This will also allow Liu Yifan and his classmates to give full play to their talents and, incidentally, protect these highly educated individuals.

Otherwise, given the level of these scholars, they might be captured by enemy agents before long, which would be a loss for China.

At this moment, Zhang Yifan and his classmate Song Xiaofei were in the reception room of Dafengtang. The two were a little uneasy, not knowing what they would face next.

Coincidentally, their small team had also participated in the operation a few nights ago, but it was all spontaneous, since everything was chaotic at that time. Zhang Yifan also brought people to the scene to see if they could help in any way.

However, by the time they arrived, the battle was already over. They only managed to collect some weapons and ammunition from the enemy's corpses, which was a modest gain.

However, during their retreat, they encountered a search party from the enemy, and it was the people of Dafengtang who came to their rescue.

Over time, everyone became familiar with each other, and Zhang Yifan and his companion came at the invitation of the other party.

However, when the two arrived, they found that only an elderly man was waiting for them.

"My surname is Cui, and I am the head of the Dafeng Hall. The main reason I invited you two here is to ask for your help with something."

"Please rest assured, there is no danger involved in this matter. Once it is accomplished, Da Feng Tang will definitely reward you handsomely."

Upon hearing this, Liu Yifan and Song Xiaofei exchanged a glance, both seeing ecstatic joy in each other's eyes.

Their small team knew about the ability to purchase weapons and equipment from Da Feng Tang, but they weren't qualified to participate in the auction at the time, so they didn't have the opportunity to buy weapons to develop their power.

This time we've finally gotten involved with the Da Feng Tang, so we can buy better weapons to fight the Japanese devils now.

Liu Yifan asked in a low voice:

"Master Cui, could we purchase some pistols from the Great Wind Hall?"

"You can have this."

"What about high-explosive grenades?"

"That's also an option."

Master Cui explained with a smile, "As long as you help our Dafeng Hall with this favor, you will be our honored guests. In addition to purchasing weapons and ammunition, you can also purchase all kinds of intelligence from us, and we will give you a 20% discount on everything."

"Alright, I won't stand on ceremony. Let's get down to business."

After he finished speaking, he picked up a map with all sorts of information marked on it, but no place names were marked.

The rescue of the isolated battalion was a top secret, and everyone except a select few was kept in secrecy.

The real fear is that once the enemy discovers something amiss, the Japanese will attack without hesitation. It's not a big deal if these people suffer some losses, but the real fear is that the heroes of Sihang Warehouse will be harmed again, which is something no one wants to see.

Everyone in the isolated battalion is now unarmed, and although the enemy is wary of the power of the Niu Niu Kingdom, they dare not go too far.

But once we have a rescue plan, the Japanese will definitely do everything in their power to wipe out everyone in the isolated battalion, even if it means offending the Japanese.

After all, the prestige and strength of the Niu Niu Kingdom are not what they used to be. They are currently being beaten to a pulp by the Hans Kingdom. They would definitely not cause any conflict with the local people over such a trivial matter. At most, they would just protest a few words and let it go.
