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

Kong Hao's current position was decided after countless discussions among the leaders. At Li Yunlong's current level, he probably wouldn't even be qualified to be an observer.

However, only Zhao Gang in the room understood that Li Yunlong was telling everyone his purpose, which was simply to make everyone feel indebted to the Independent Column, so that it would be easier to get some good stuff from the arsenal.

Look at the Independent Column now. It has been selected by the leaders as a test unit for new weapons and new tactics. It will be given priority to be equipped with any good things.

For example, other columns were basically equipped with 75mm mountain guns, while the independent column was equipped with 105mm heavy howitzers.

The entire column consisted of a mixed artillery regiment, a 105mm howitzer battalion and two 75mm mountain gun battalions, plus a 160mm heavy mortar battalion.

In addition, there is a mechanized regiment equipped with a newly developed light tank battalion and two mechanized infantry battalions.

This strength is unique among combat units at the base area column level.

Of course, this was also the result of Kong Hao's strong recommendation as the chief consultant, after all, there is a deep connection between them.

In addition, the previous independent regiment had been stationed near the arsenal for a long time and was responsible for testing new weapons, so what happened next was a natural progression.

Li Yunlong may seem carefree on the surface, but he's actually quite cunning and shrewd; he's the kind of person who appears foolish but is actually wise.

"Others laugh at me for being too crazy, I laugh at them for not seeing through me."

Of course, the leaders were well aware of this, but they simply chose not to care.

Li Yunlong was also clever; he never spoke to his superiors directly, but instead mentioned it to the column commanders who were of similar rank to him.

As they talked, Ding Wei couldn't take it anymore and changed the subject.

"Old Li, what's Xiao Kong up to lately? I went to the arsenal to receive weapons and equipment once, and I was thinking of getting closer to him, no, I mean catching up with him."

"But to my surprise, we couldn't find it after searching everywhere. Besides, we had been instructed from above that we shouldn't ask about these kinds of things casually."

Li Yunlong is the most qualified to speak on this issue, and there are only four of them in the room, so it's fine for him to say something.

Moreover, to put it bluntly, Li Yunlong, Ding Wei, Kong Jie, and Zhao Gang spent the most time with Kong Hao, so even if it was kept secret, it couldn't be kept from them.

In fact, Kong Hao's identity was only kept secret from those who were unaware of it; there was no need to keep it a secret from those who were already familiar with him.

Besides, even if the enemy finds out, so what? The strength of the base area is now vastly different from what it used to be, and the Japanese are simply unable to launch a large-scale offensive.

After all, unless the enemy can mobilize 500,000 elite troops and launch an attack on our base regardless of the consequences, it would take more than half a year before there is any chance of breaking through our base's defenses.

This is still based on the premise that our strength has only been superficially detected by the enemy; no one knows how much power we have actually accumulated.

For example, the arsenal has been operating around the clock for more than a year, producing weapons and ammunition. A portion of the weapons and ammunition is delivered to the troops, while a large portion is stored for future strategic counter-offensives.

If we were to open all our secret arsenals, it would be no problem to raise another several hundred thousand elite troops.

Moreover, in order to ensure the continued development of our base, our layout takes into account both military and civilian needs. Some small industrial zones produce a large number of civilian products to improve the lives of ordinary people and enhance the overall industrial strength.

However, once we engage in large-scale battles with the enemy, many hardware factories are fully capable of producing various military supplies.

For example, many bicycle parts factories can transform to produce truck or armored vehicle parts, and textile factories can quickly produce military tactical backpacks, and so on.

In fact, every day now is strengthening China's industrial foundation, but our foundation was too weak in the past, and we still need time to accumulate.

The world is currently in chaos, and the Japanese are showing signs of taking action in Southeast Asia. We are also waiting for a golden opportunity.

Therefore, we established a large number of new arsenals, with people and machines working non-stop every day to produce various equipment, in order to prepare for the future full-scale counter-offensive.

Since the enemy's main force couldn't break through, they could only send people infiltrate to eliminate Kong Hao through assassination or kidnapping.

If the Japanese really choose this tactic, then it can only be said that the enemy is practically courting death.

At this time, in the base area and various industrial zones, there were at least twenty people named Kong Hao, all of whom were highly skilled technical personnel.

Especially in the two core industrial zones, there are no fewer than five Kong Haos, and the level of secrecy is frighteningly high. They are also called Kong Hao, Kong Hao, and Kong Hao.

Even if the enemy knew this name, they probably wouldn't be able to find the real Kong Hao right away.

Moreover, Kong Hao is a low-key person whose whereabouts are never fixed and who never appears in public. Finding Kong Hao's true identity is harder than climbing to heaven.

Besides, even if the Japanese went to great lengths to locate Kong Hao and send spies to assassinate him, who could possibly be a match for him?

According to usual practice, senior technicians like Kong Hao in the arsenal are basically civilian employees, with negligible combat skills.

But who would have thought that Kong Hao's individual combat ability was the strongest in the entire industrial zone?

Even when Kong Hao was in the industrial zone, the leaders always arranged a six-person special operations team as a protective force, but no one knew about it.

Of course, Kong Hao knew this, but he just didn't say it. He couldn't possibly say that he had a system and that no one in the world could harm him.

That's why Li Yunlong and others could talk about this matter so casually.

Li Yunlong proudly boasted, "Old Kong, you know Xiao Kong too, he's a man who can't sit still."

“He hasn’t been in the industrial zone lately; he’s taken the Xingtian Special Forces out to do some side jobs.”

Upon hearing this, Ding Wei exclaimed in surprise, "Recently, many caravans from Shanghai have come to my defense zone, bringing us several exciting pieces of news."

"A lot of big things happened in Shanghai recently. The Japanese suffered heavy losses. When I heard the news, I wondered whose general was so fierce."

"Now that you hear what I'm saying, isn't this exactly the special operations tactics that Kong Hao often talks about, like decapitation strikes and urban assaults?"

"Unfortunately, I wanted to apply for a special operations team to be stationed in our column, but it hasn't been approved after several months."
