Bright Sword: Japs, times have changed

The biggest gain of this operation was not attracting the attention of the devils, which was the purpose of the operation. The biggest gain was the rebellious puppet troops brought back by each team.

All together, there are more than 700 people!

This number exceeded the expectations of everyone in the row. Before setting off, everyone knew that there would be puppet troops trying to surrender, but no one expected there would be so many people.

Lin Qiang was the most surprised one, because the total number of puppet troops marked on the map was only more than a thousand, but two-thirds of them surrendered in this operation!

Under the scrutiny of the Eye of Insight, none of them were spies who had sneaked in with ulterior motives.

Although overall the current loyalty is not very high, it is generally around 60, not many can reach 70, and only a few are above .

Lin Qiang is not worried about loyalty. As long as people stay in the queue, their loyalty will increase sooner or later.

Another benefit of this operation is that the system rewarded us with a wireless telephone system. There was no prompt and the system gave us this reward directly after we returned to the base.

Through the introduction, Lynch learned that this so-called wireless telephone system is really... a telephone without a telephone line.

This set of 10 telephones covers a very wide area. Not only can they contact each other, but they can also connect to the Eighth Route Army telephone switchboard, so they can contact and communicate with the teams equipped with telephones at any time.

It can be said to be very humane.

This greatly avoids the situation where telephone lines are damaged during combat, resulting in the inability to communicate in a timely manner.

With the addition of the telephone, the first platoon now has basically complete communication facilities, both internally and externally. In the future, there will be no need to rely on manpower to transmit messages to the regiment headquarters.

There is a telephone in Lin Qiang's room, and a telephone in each of the other three branch bases for communication purposes.

After the team returned to the base, they didn't see anyone except Zhang Yuntian.

"What about the rest?"

Zhang Yuntian shook his head and said, "I don't know! I haven't seen them either!"

I had originally thought of letting Hu Zi and the others do political work for the puppet troops in Xiaowangzhuang, so that they would all change into the uniforms of our Eighth Route Army.

Since no one could be found, the job fell on Zhang Yuntian.

"Then I'll leave the ideological work of the soldiers in Xiaowangzhuang to you. I'll also distribute their uniforms."

Zhang Yuntian shook the roster in his hand and said, "It just so happens that I also need to go and do the statistics."

"Okay, then you'll have to work harder."

Shortly after Zhang Yuntian left, the monk ran to Lin Qiang's house with a smile on his face, followed by more than 20 soldiers.

Before Lin Qiang could ask, the monk spoke first, "Platoon Leader, let's go. We have a surprise for you."

"surprise?"

Lin Qiang asked back: "What surprise?"

"You'll know if you go with me!"

Then he pulled Lin Qiang away without saying anything. When he turned around, Lin Qiang saw the soldiers entering his house in an orderly manner.

"Monk, let me go!"

"What were those soldiers doing in my house?"

"Monk, I command you to let me go!"

Sure enough, after saying this, the monk let Lin Qiang go, but not because of an order, but because they had arrived at the place.

It is only about thirty or forty meters away from the house where Lin Qiang lives.

"Platoon Leader, this is the surprise we prepared for you!"

"What a shock..."

Before Lin Qiang could finish his words, he was shocked by the scene in front of him.

He saw a huge house standing in front of him. The area was more than twice as large as the one he lived in before, and the walls were made of wooden boards instead of logs.

Not only that, looking in from the door, the furniture and facilities inside are also very complete, with tables, chairs, benches, and a stove for warming up.

"Platoon leader, let's go in and take a look!" Hu Zi said with a smile.

Lin Qiang turned his head to look at a few people, then stepped into the house.

The room was very spacious, and even the floor was paved with wooden boards, not the mud floor like before.

In addition to the furniture just seen outside, there are a few more paintings hanging on the walls of the room. It is obvious that these are paintings that Zhao Dezhu found in the warehouse.

Further in is the separated bedroom.

There is a wardrobe, a large bed, and even a dressing table.

It was not until this moment that Lin Qiang understood why these guys had been missing for some time. It turned out that they were busy with this matter.

"You guys are so thoughtful!"

Lin Qiang was deeply moved and almost burst into tears several times.

however……

"Sergeant, this room is big enough for you and your sister-in-law! There are two small rooms on both sides of the door, so the children will have room to live there in the future."

Those words were spoken by Qiangzi.

Before he finished speaking, the others had already taken two steps back, fearing that they would be implicated.

sister in law?

Lin Qiang never expected that even after traveling through time, he would still be subjected to rumors, and these rumors were made by his own subordinates.

I have to say, these guys are quite thoughtful.

Where can I get my wife?

Will the organization issue it?

"Sister-in-law? Where did you get your sister-in-law?"

Qiangzi turned his head and realized that the others had distanced themselves from him. He was so angry that he blurted out, "You guys are going too far, especially you, Huzi. If you hadn't said you wanted to get a bigger house for the platoon leader and his wife, I wouldn't have asked for your help."

"And you, Wu Zhe, you were the one who said that judging by the platoon leader's appearance, he would have to have at least two children, and that your sister-in-law had a round and beautiful face, so she could definitely give him a son."

"What are you laughing at, Xu Lang? Don't forget, you said you wanted to make the bed stronger, otherwise it won't be able to withstand the platoon leader's tossing and turning."

"The worst offender is you, Wang Qiang. Was it your idea to build double walls? Was it you who said it needed to be soundproofed, to prevent the entire base from knowing about the platoon leader's bravery?"

"besides……"

"Stop!"

Lin Qiang really couldn't stand it anymore, so he quickly told Qiangzi to shut up, otherwise who knows what "heartless" words he would say next.

His eyes scanned the men, finally stopping at the monk: "Boy, I really didn't see that!"

The monk tried to explain: "Platoon Leader, I only participated in the construction. I didn't say anything else. If you don't believe me, ask Qiangzi!"

"Hadron?"

Qiangzi nodded and said, "The monk didn't say anything, but after the bed was finished, he deliberately tried it out. If he found any noise, he would fix it until there was no more noise."

Hu Zi walked up with a dark face, kicked Qiang Zi on the butt, and said helplessly: "You are worthy of being a good brother! You sold us out at the critical moment!"

"You are unkind, so don't blame me for being unjust!"

Lin Qiang's punishments were as endless as his war ideas, and no one could predict what the punishment would be, but it was obvious that Qiangzi did not intend to bear it alone.

However, Lin Qiang's next words made everyone feel relieved.

"You guys are quite thoughtful. I am very satisfied with this room."

Everyone was stunned.

It was Hu Zi who reacted first and said with a smile, "As long as you are satisfied, platoon leader."

"but……"

Lin Qiang sat on a stool, half leaning against the wall, and asked, "Can anyone tell me who my sister-in-law is?"

What's the old saying?

"A dead pig is not afraid of boiling water!"

"I'm not afraid of having too many lice!"

Qiangzi was in this state right now, and he said word by word, "That's not right. Huzi said that you and Miss Zhao were planning to move in together, otherwise we wouldn't have built such a big house!"

"Um!?"

Lin Qiang's gaze fell on Hu Zi: "When did this happen? How come I don't know about it?"

Fortunately, the soldier who was moving things outside the door temporarily saved Hu Zi's life.

Lin Qiang asked a few people to move aside, and then asked the soldiers to put everything in place according to his instructions.

Seeing this, Hu Zi walked out of the house and shouted, "Platoon Leader, I'll go see if there's anything left behind!"

"I am coming too!"

"Wait for me, I'll go too!"

"And me!"

In the blink of an eye, Qiangzi was left alone to face the "storm".

Before the things in the house were put away, Duan Peng's voice came from the intercom:

"The wolf is calling, the wolf is calling!"

Unless there is a special situation, Duan Peng will not call Lin Qiang directly, but will find him through the communications soldier.

And now calling Lin Qiang directly means the situation is urgent.

Lin Qiang didn't dare to delay and picked up the walkie-talkie to reply to the other party.

Soon, Duan Peng's voice rang out again on the intercom: "Report to the platoon leader, Laiyuan County and Anhua County have formed a temporary team with a strength of about a regiment, and they are heading towards the base!"

This news made Lin Qiang happy!

The devils that we have been waiting for for so long finally came today!
