Bright Sword: Construction starts from southeastern Shanxi

On the morning of October 29, outside Pingshun County.

A group of Eighth Route Army troops riding on war horses galloped quickly towards Pingshun County.

The leading man was probably in his thirties, wearing a leather coat and a pair of round-framed glasses. He waved a horsewhip and ran straight to the city gate.

Only when they reached the city gate did the man stop his horse and look at the city wall breathlessly.

"Damn Zeng Jiwen, he actually put his headquarters in the city. He really has become a landlord. The city will depend on you later."

After saying that, he looked at a young, thin man beside him.

"I say, brigade commander, how can you do this? Tell the division commander what you want, and he will definitely agree." The man ignored him and persuaded him instead.

"You bastard, do you also want to join your old commander's army? My brigade headquarters is too small to accommodate a big Buddha like you."

Hearing this, the man was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

"Okay, okay, I won't get involved in your affairs."

After saying that, he led his men into the city.

Hearing this, the man with glasses immediately became unhappy.

"Well, the position of deputy commander is not enough for you. Can I give you my position of commander as well?" After saying that, he followed.

In the headquarters in the city, Zeng Jiwen was discussing the future development of the troops with Wang Zhuo and Cai Xu. Suddenly, the guard at the door came into the room.

"Reporting to the division commander and chief of staff, Commander Chen and Deputy Commander Ye of the Taiyue Military Region have arrived."

After hearing the guard's words, several people came back to their senses and immediately ended the discussion.

"Xiao Fang, go get a pot of water and ask the kitchen staff to prepare more lunch."

After Zeng Jiwen finished speaking, he, Wang Zhuo and Cai Xu walked out of the house and came to the outside of the headquarters.

From a distance, Zeng Jiwen saw two figures appear not far from the road, and soon they arrived at the entrance of the headquarters.

When Zeng Jiwen saw the person coming, he immediately stepped forward and spoke.

"Why are the magpies chirping around here today? What a rare visitor!"

When Chen Shukang saw Zeng Jiwen, his eyes lit up and he immediately spoke.

"Zeng Jiwen, congratulations on your fortune!"

Upon hearing this, Zeng Jiwen's forehead suddenly turned dark.

Suddenly thinking of a big-headed guy, Zeng Jiwen glanced at Chen Shukang unhappily.

"Why, you're a brigade commander, and you're congratulating me, a division commander, on getting rich."

After saying that, Zeng Jiwen looked at Commander Chen with a smile on his face.

Hearing Zeng Jiwen's words, Commander Chen was stunned for a moment, and said after thinking for a while.

"Why, can't I just congratulate you on your fortune? You've made such a big profit this time. I even lent you my artillery regiment, and you don't even try to show your appreciation. You think you can get rid of me with just a division of Japanese equipment?"

Zeng Jiwen was a little confused when he heard Commander Chen's words.

"What did you say? Say it again!"

"Just a division!"

After saying that, Zeng Jiwen turned and looked at Commander Ye.

"Cheng Huan, how much fake wine did he drink today, and it's just a division!"

Hearing this, Commander Ye subconsciously took a step back and did not answer them.

When Chen Shukang heard Zeng Jiwen's words, his face immediately turned dark.

He said sarcastically: "Alas, this is worthy of being the master. When he became rich, he forgot about the hardships of us."

Zeng Jiwen listened to Chen Shukang's sarcastic words, ignored them, and said instead.

"No matter how many troops you expand, you won't be afraid of being overwhelmed."

"There's not even enough equipment for a Japanese division!"

After hearing Zeng Jiwen's words, Chen Shukang did not tolerate it and spoke directly.

"I don't want much. I think the 105mm mountain cannon you captured is pretty good."

After hearing this, Zeng Jiwen blurted out: "That thing is very heavy."

"Don't worry, Master. I brought pack horses with me this time."

"There aren't many shells!"

"It's okay, let's talk after the fight!"

"There aren't many people in the army who can operate the 105mm now."

"It's okay, I'll send someone to learn."

"How can you do that if you don't have enough artillery!"

"That's okay. At worst, I can let my original artillery regiment handle this."

"........."

"Go ahead, do you have any questions?" After saying that, Chen Shukang looked at Zeng Jiwen with a smile.

Hearing this, Zeng Jiwen looked at Chen Shukang speechlessly.

"What can I say? You've already said this. What else can I say?"

Seeing Zeng Jiwen's speechless expression, Chen Shukang burst into laughter.

"I knew you were going to find all sorts of excuses to shut me up, but I'm fully prepared this time."

Zeng Jiwen curled his lips when he heard this.

"You still want 105? Aren't you afraid of dying of fullness?"

"Then there's no need to bother your master. As long as you give it to me, I'll take it." Chen Shukang waved his hand and said nonchalantly.

"I wonder where Li Yunlong learned this trick. I'm afraid he learned it from you." Zeng Jiwen did not tolerate it and said in a gloomy way.

"If you are not satisfied, let Li Yunlong come to the 386th Brigade." Chen Shukang raised his eyes and said with a smile.

"Should we take the independent detachment along with us?"

"That's not good. You can't eat and take at the same time. If you are willing to let go, that's fine."

When Zeng Jiwen heard this, he immediately turned around and said to the guard beside him.

"Tell the kitchen staff to forget what I just said and stick with the previous amount."

Hearing this, the people around burst into laughter.

Wang Zhuo and Cai Xu on the side also couldn't stop laughing.

"Old Chen, this is wrong. You are even giving the pot to the division commander while you are eating." Wang Zhuo said to Chen Shukang with a smile.

Chen Shukang was displeased when he heard Wang Zhuo's words. "Old Wang, your division is full of talented people, but it's still missing a Li Yunlong."

Zeng Jiwen narrowed his eyes when he heard this, stared at Chen Shukang and said, "If you want it, you can!"

Then he turned to the man next to Chen Shukang and said, "Cheng Huan, come to my Tainan. I will go back home soon. When I go back, I will tell them that a military region will be established in Jizhong next year. You will go to be the commander. It is better than staying with him."

When Ye Chenghuan heard Zeng Jiwen's words, he immediately frowned and subconsciously took a step back.

"Hey, old leader, please don't drag me into your affairs, okay?"

Chen Shukang, who was standing by, got furious when he heard what Zeng Jiwen said.

"You're such a jerk, Zeng Jiwen! You're still targeting my people."

"Same here~"

After saying that, the two of them stared at each other.

At this time, Wang Zhuo shook his head.

"Come on, you two, if things really don't work out, just have a fight. Whoever wins gets to listen to you."

When Zeng Jiwen and Chen Shukang heard what Wang Zhuo said, one looked at the other's legs and the other looked at the other's hands.

Chen Shukang slightly moved his left leg forward, while Zeng Jiwen secretly prepared to exert force with one of his hands.

Just when the people around them thought that the two were really going to fight, suddenly, they both restrained themselves at the same time.

They said in unison: "We'll let you go today and go inside first."

Then he walked towards the headquarters, leaving the people around him with a frown on their faces.
