Then, the group began to rush back to the base in a hurry, leaving the railway line in a mess.

When the defenders along the line began to discover that the attacking Eighth Route Army had begun to withdraw, they immediately rushed to various strongholds to check the losses. They found that there were large areas of bare tracks. It was obvious that the Eighth Route Army was tearing up the tracks.

Then he shook his head. The officer in charge did not say anything about pursuing the enemy. He just wrote down the situation and went back to report it to his superiors.

When Gangbu Naosaburo heard that the Shota Line was in a mess and the tracks had been torn up by the 389th Division, and even the barbed wire and sleepers on both sides of the railway were not spared, his face turned red and white.

I couldn't help but curse, "Your 389th Division has captured so much equipment from the Locust Army, but you still need these things. Is it necessary?" After thinking for a while, I ordered the repair of the Zhengtai line as soon as possible.

Then, he stared at the west of Linfen on the map with a murderous look and began to study it.

After Zeng Jiwen and others received the news that the teaching group had returned to the base, they immediately asked someone to greet the newly arrived people and let them have a good rest for a while, and that they would talk about the matter later.

It turned out that the 389th Division's attack on the Zhengtai Line was mainly to support the teaching regiment in the rear and the talents that they had sent out before. At the same time, they brought a large number of professional books and teaching equipment, as well as important spare parts such as gun barrels and cannon barrels.

Some raw material collection and processing equipment had been secretly sent to the base from all directions through various shell companies when the raid was over.

However, after Zeng Jiwen intercepted the equipment of the Taiyuan Arsenal, various technical personnel began to slowly move in small batches from the rear through northwestern Shanxi to the Wutai area, and finally assembled in Wutai, and were finally met by the 389th Division on the Zhengtai Line.

At the same time, in order to prevent leaks, they explored the route during the day and traveled at night, for fear of leaking any information. They were almost discovered by the Japanese army several times, especially when crossing the Tongpu Railway.

Fortunately, under the leadership of Wang Zhan, the entire team arrived safely at the base of the 389th Division.

On the morning of the fifth day, Zeng Jiwen, Zhou Shi and others began to visit the people who came to support them.

When Zeng Jiwen and others walked into Nanyu Village, where the teaching group and others were temporarily settled, Wang Zhan had received the news and was waiting at the village entrance early.

When he saw Zeng Jiwen and others arriving, he immediately went to greet them.

After Wang Zhan's narration, Zeng Jiwen and others had a thorough understanding of the situation regarding their support.

At present, there are about two hundred engineers who have returned to provide support, ranging from military industry to construction, and basically from all walks of life, but they are mainly concentrated in mechanical manufacturing, material research, weapons design and other aspects.

The others are progressive young people who graduated from the Anti-Japanese Military and Political University before. They will participate in the construction of the base. At the same time, a group of teachers from the Anti-Japanese Military and Political University, headed by President He, will establish a new branch of the Anti-Japanese Military and Political University in southeastern Shanxi.

Zeng Jiwen nodded. The entire army was expanding this time, and both the local and military needed a large number of grassroots cadres. In order to continuously train middle and lower-level cadres, they had planned to transfer the teaching regiment to the front line long before the mopping-up operation, so that they could bring people who supported the rear with them.

Afterwards, Wang Zhan took Zeng Jiwen and others and began to walk towards the east entrance of the village. At the same time, he sent people to notify the cadres and technical personnel supporting from the rear, telling them that they could gather at the east entrance of the village, and that the commander of the 389th Division would be arriving soon.

On the path leading to the east entrance of the village, Zeng Jiwen suddenly saw several familiar figures sitting on stone benches by the roadside, discussing something.

So Zeng Jiwen stopped immediately, slowly walked to the side and listened to the discussion of several people.

As soon as I walked in, I heard a capable, short-haired woman say to a thin man wearing round glasses, "He Ping, do you know what Professor Otto and Fritz discovered a while ago? It's truly astonishing!" (The timeline has been advanced)
