Lin Zhong then took old brigade commander Chen to the military factory halfway up the back mountain.
"Brigadier, please come this way."
"Just cross a small road ahead and we'll be there." Lin Zhong led the way.
Old Brigadier Chen looked around at the Black Cloud Mountain, which was already a little black, and sighed in his heart. One can imagine what kind of war broke out last time.
What kind of battle could turn Heiyun Mountain into this state?
After crossing the path, Brigadier Chen heard the sound of banging in the cave not far away.
"Good fellow, with such a big cave, is it possible that there really is a military factory inside?" Brigadier Chen said in surprise, walking forward quickly with excitement.
Finally, after a few minutes, Brigadier Chen arrived at the entrance of the cave.
boom!
The scene before him struck the old brigade commander's heart like a lightning strike.
The cave is very bright, illuminated by nearly a hundred lights. There are dozens of equipment at work and you can see that many firearm parts have just been produced.
Lao Chen was so excited that he was speechless for a moment and turned to look at Lin Zhong.
Lin Zhong smiled and said, "Old brigade commander, this is our arsenal."
"What do you think?"
"There are a total of twenty-five technicians in the factory. They can make almost all kinds of firearms. There is also a master who can make a heavy machine gun!"
"How's it going? I'm fine with you, right?"
Lao Chen nodded heavily, "Okay, okay, okay."
Three good words.
"Lin Zhong, you have done a great job!"
"With this military factory, our entire Eighth Route Army in northwestern Shanxi will be improved. You have made a great contribution! You have made a great contribution!" Lao Chen said excitedly, unable to speak for a moment.
"Lin Zhong, what is the name of this military factory?" Old Chen asked.
Lin Zhong thought for a while and then said: "Hey, the New First Brigade is directly under the military factory."
Lao Chen was stunned, this...
Isn’t this a bit inappropriate? Why does it feel like it’s owned by Xinyi Brigade?
After thinking about it, forget it, he has taken over the military factory and now he really doesn't care about just one name.
But when he saw Lin Zhong again, he suddenly felt a little depressed.
"What's wrong with you, Lin Zhong? Are you feeling uncomfortable?" Lao Chen asked.
Lin Zhong shook his head, "Nothing, old brigade commander, but I'm afraid there's some trouble here."
Old Chen was stunned, "What trouble? As long as I don't cause trouble for you, a brigade commander, and the boss doesn't cause trouble for you, who would dare to cause trouble for you?"
Lin Zhong said in a low voice: "Old brigade commander, you should know that these technicians are obtained from Yan Laoxi, and they probably won't give up easily."
"But it doesn't matter, old brigade commander. I, Lin Zhong, do it for the sake of resisting Japan and national justice. If one day I am assassinated by Yan Laoxi, I must continue to run this military factory!"
"Don't worry, old brigadier."
Old Chen was stunned. Lin Zhong's national righteousness was indeed somewhat touching. In the final analysis, it was all for the revolution.
He patted Lin Zhong on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, Lin Zhong. As long as I'm here, Yan Laoxi will never dare to cause trouble for you in a big way."
"If he really dares to do anything outrageous, I will be the first to refuse!"
Lin Zhong saluted, "Thank you so much, old brigade commander!"
With the old brigade commander guaranteeing that Yan Laoxi's troubles don't matter, there are still no people in northwestern Shanxi who dare not give face to this person.
...
After another visit, Deputy Commander Chen left the arsenal and couldn't wait to return to the headquarters to resume his duties.
Along the way, Lao Chen was thinking about what his boss would look like when he heard the news when he returned to the headquarters.
The boss galloped to the headquarters on horseback. Before reaching the door, Lao Chen jumped off his horse and went straight to the headquarters.
"Boss!"
"Boss!"
The boss who was looking at all kinds of information in the room quickly put down his work and opened the door to greet him when he heard the news that it was Lao Chen.
"Boss, after verification, the New First Brigade has indeed built a new military factory, and it is quite large and can manufacture various types of firearms!" Lao Chen said excitedly.
The boss was overjoyed, "Hahahaha!"
"Okay! This guy Lin Zhong is so damn good!"
"This kid always gives me some fucking surprises."
...
Lin Zhong looked at the normally operating arsenal and let out a sigh of relief. With this arsenal, the development of the new brigade will be much faster in the future.
Half a month has passed, everything in the new brigade is running normally, and the military factory has also produced the first batch of equipment, a total of five hundred 98k.
Lin Zhong inspected it and sent it directly to the headquarters, which made the boss burst into laughter.
In the hall, Lin Zhong had been studying the map, and Zhou Weiguo walked in at some point.
"Brigadier, half a month has passed." Zhou Weiguo smiled.
Lin Zhong was stunned, half a month had passed, and then what?
Suddenly he was startled, "You are talking about recruiting soldiers, right?"
"Brigade commander, half a month has passed and we have only recruited a thousand people, which is still far from the four or five thousand people you mentioned." Zhou Weiguo said.
I made a bet with Zhou Weiguo that day to expand the army and return to the pre-war status within a month. Half a month has passed now.
Lin Zhong said: "Don't panic, you will know soon."
According to the agreement, Zhang Dabiao should be back tomorrow. According to the instructions, he went to Baima County to spend a lot of money to recruit soldiers, ten yuan per person!
Zhou Weiguo nodded. It wasn't that he didn't hope for the best, it was just that what Lin Zhong said was too outrageous...
Of course, there are not many outrageous things that happened to Lin Zhong... He attacked Taiyuan, bombed the county town, built an arsenal...
But on the second day, before Zhang Dabiao came back, Lin Zhong received an emergency meeting notice from the division headquarters, so Lin Zhong hurried to the division headquarters for the meeting.
Damacun, 129 headquarters.
At this time, a total of four brigade commanders from 129, Lin Zhong, Ding Wei, Niu Qi, and Fan Tian, gathered in the small courtyard of a farmhouse at the entrance of the village.
Ding Wei doesn't need any introduction, he still looks the same, Niu Qi is about forty years old and has a mustache, and Fan Tian has a big beer belly and a bald head.
"Brigadier Lin, haha, it's better to see than to hear for a long time. I've heard for a long time that Brigadier Lin is a talented person." Niu Qi was the first to step forward and speak very enthusiastically.
"Hahaha, this must be Brigadier Niu. I've heard of it for a long time, and he's also a good person..."
Lin Zhong suddenly paused when he looked at Niu Qi's appearance. The bearded man was really speechless.
"Haha, you look just like a human being." Lin Zhong said with a smile, speaking faster than Niu Qi, but Niu Qi didn't even say it.
Fan Tian on the side crossed his arms and suddenly said: "Tell me, who are you? Do you know what happened? He suddenly called us back in a hurry."
The other three shook their heads in unison. Logically speaking, for non-important matters, just send a telegram or send a messenger to report. What happened...
Lin Zhong felt something was wrong and immediately called a guard.
"Little brother, where is the teacher? He asked us to come over for a meeting, why are we still missing?"
The guard had a submachine gun hanging on his chest and frowned as he said, "You may not know that the situation among the brigade commanders is urgent. Our division commander was shot and is currently being treated in a field hospital for emergency treatment!"
In one sentence, the four of them were stunned on the spot!
"What did you say!"
"The division commander was shot!"
"what happened!"
"No, we have to go to the field hospital quickly!"
"How on earth did you get shot!"
"How is the teacher doing now?"
...
The four people grabbed the guard's collar and asked each one one by one. Before the guard could answer, he asked the next question.
At this moment, a figure appeared behind several people.
"You guys, please calm down for me! I'm really upset!"
"Everyone come in for a meeting!"
Everyone looked at him and saw that it was none other than Deputy Commander Chen.
