"Then aren't we doing our work in vain?"

Hearing this, Li Yunlong's face collapsed and he said, "If we can't find an engineer, then what's the use of moving these iron lumps back to northwest Shanxi and Taiyue Mountain?"

After saying this, he said, "Have you melted the big blade?"

Wang Ye waved his hand and said, "There is no big problem in Taiyue Mountain. Textile factories, cigarette factories, wineries, leather factories and flour factories are not difficult. Even if there are no technical workers in the local area, there must be one in Yan'an, so people can be transferred from Yan'an through organization."

Since the second cooperation between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party, young students have continued to travel to Yan'an.

These students have all majors. It should be no problem to find a group of students to act as technical backbones and to undertake the construction and production of factories such as textiles, cigarettes, winemaking, and leather.

"But it's very troublesome here in the northwest of Shanxi."

After a pause, Wang Ye continued: "Because the technical requirements of steel plants, power plants and arsenals are much higher than those of textiles, winemaking and leather!"

Li Yunlong said: "Is it that exaggerated?"

"It's so exaggerated." Wang Ye said, "I'll just say it. Factory like textile factories, cigarette factories, breweries, and flour mills. Even if there are no technical workers, we can install the machinery and equipment and put them into production by ourselves. However, factories like steel factories, power plants and arsenals rely on us to explore for hundreds of years, and we are afraid that we can't assemble the equipment and put them into production."

"So serious?" Li Yunlong said, "That's really troublesome..."

Speaking of this, Li Yunlong said again: "If we can't find anyone, we will spend a lot of effort to transport the machinery and equipment back to Fuliangshan, which will not be useful at all. Wouldn't that be a big loss?"

Wang Ye said in a deep voice: "So you have to find a way to find someone, even if you use unjust means to tie someone up."

This was heard by Zhao Gang who came in outside. Zhao Gang quickly dissuaded: "Xiao Wang, our Eighth Route Army is disciplined. You can't do such things as kidnapping and extortion. No matter what the starting point is."

Wang Ye hurriedly said: "Political Commissar, I just talk casually and I won't really kidnap the vote."

"That's good." Zhao Gang breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Xiao Wang, haven't asked you why you tied up someone?"

"It's not because of the machinery and equipment." Li Yunlong said, "Xiao Wang said that if we can't find intellectuals, the batch of machinery and equipment we transported back to Fuliangshan would be useless."

"Intellect?" Zhao Gang frowned, "Is he an engineer?"

"The same meaning." Li Yunlong snorted, "Anyway, they are all scholars."

"The difference between intellectuals and engineers is very big." Zhao Gang said, "Intellectuals are a large group, and engineers are only a small part of them, but they are elites among intellectuals. Now it is the war era, and the value of engineers cannot be reflected. When the War of Resistance Against Japan is victorious in the future and the construction of the country begins, the role of engineers will be great."

From these words, Wang Ye could hear that Zhao Gang was a man with lofty ambitions. His vision was no longer limited to the war in front of him, but was already considering the construction of the country after the victory of the War of Resistance Against Japan.

Speaking of this, Zhao Gang said again: "Xiao Wang, it is difficult to find engineers from steel plants, power plants and arsenals. Not to mention our northwest Shanxi, we are afraid that we will not be able to find a suitable one even when we go to Yan'an."

"It's not that." Wang Ye sighed, "so it's very troublesome."

Zhao Gang smiled and said, "I actually have a way to solve this problem, but there is a condition."

"I said Lao Zhao, can you stop being so squeamish, like a woman?" Li Yunlong said impatiently, "Speak quickly if you have something to say, and let go if you have nothing to do."

Zhao Gang's face fell down: "Old Li, can you speak well?"

Wang Ye quickly changed the topic and said, "Political Commissar, tell me, what are the conditions?"

Zhao Gang said very seriously: "Old Li and Xiao Wang. This time, Chu Yunfei and Liang Gang sent troops to steal Heyuan County and Fu'an County while our Independent Regiment was out, which was indeed very excessive!"

"But we must also note that there is still a difference between Chu Yunfei, Liang Gang and Zhu Huaibing, Zeng Yinwu and others before."

"Zhu Huaibing, Zeng Yinwu and others, acted without any bottom line, and wanted to kill the cadres and masses in our base areas, committing unforgivable crimes, but Chu Yunfei and Liang Gang still kept their bottom line."

"At least, the two of them did not kill the cadres and soldiers of our democratic government indiscriminately."

After a pause, Zhao Gang said again: "Chu Yunfei and Liang Gang not only released Heyuan, but also cadres and soldiers of the Anti-Japanese Democratic Government of Fu'an County, but even returned the weapons and equipment to us."

Li Yunlong was a little unhappy when he heard this.

Li Yunlong said in a black face: "So Lao Zhao, what do you mean?"

Zhao Gang did not give in at all and said to Li Yunlong: "I just want to say that since Chu Yunfei and Liang Gang did not completely break up with us, then we should not break up with them."

After a pause, Zhao Gang said again: "I mean to do literary battles as much as possible, not martial battles."

"Wen Dou?" Li Yunlong frowned, "What is Wen Dou? Lao Zhao, you just have something to say."

Zhao Gang said: "Wen Dou means that Chu Yunfei can steal our territory, we can also steal their territory, and even pay their weapons, but one thing cannot cause death! Even if you disarm, you must try to save their weapons simply and accurately, and don't cause death because of a melee."

"That's it?" Li Yunlong turned into a smile in an instant, "I thought you were trying to persuade us to be tolerant."

"Tolerance?" Zhao Gang said, "How can you tolerate such things? The Chairman said, "If someone does not offend me, I will not offend others. If someone offends me, I will offend others, so there is no doubt that you will fight back!"

"Old Zhao, it's right for you to think so." Li Yunlong laughed.

"And, Lao Ding, Xiao Wang, I mean the same thing. We will not completely turn against Chu Yunfei and Liang Gang. After all, the Japanese have not yet fought. If we really fight to the death, the Japanese will be happy?"

Speaking of this, Li Yunlong said again: "But I'm going to settle that American mountain cannon group Chu Yunfei!"

Zhao Gang was stunned when he heard this and said unexpectedly: "Old Li, you have already designed it, just hide it from me alone?"

"Political Commissar, you are wronged by us. We just have such a preliminary idea." Wang Ye quickly explained, "How to operate it in detail has not been decided yet."

He paused and said, "What's your solution just now?"

Zhao Gang smiled and said, "Of course the solution is to find someone, and I know where to find someone."

After Zhao Gang said this, Wang Ye instantly reacted and said loudly: "Then I understand, the head of the Second World War Zone! Go and ask Yan Xishan for someone, right?"

"That's right." Zhao Gang nodded happily.

"Before Taiyuan fell, Yan Xishan had no time to transport away the machinery and equipment and materials from various factories in Taiyuan City. In the end, these machinery and equipment and combat materials were all cheaper than the Japanese, but there was a precious treasure taken away by Yan Xishan. He was the technical backbone or engineer of these factories!"

"Haha, that's great." Li Yunlong said happily when he heard this.

"Then let's take advantage of this opportunity to deal with Chu Yunfei, grab the grass and beat the rabbits, and also pack up with Yan Laoxi, and let him obediently send the technical backbone and engineers to northwest Shanxi!"

"This is a good idea." Wang Ye smiled, "Just do it."

Ding Wei said: "When the matter is done here, let's make up the whole thing."

"Okay, I'll go to gather the troops first." Li Yunlong said that and turned around and left.

To be honest, Li Yunlong wanted to return to northwest Shanxi ten days ago when he just conquered Taiyuan.

Li Yunlong was already very restrained when he was able to stay in Taiyuan for ten days. Today, he could finally take his troops to evacuate Taiyuan. How could he hold back?

...

Heyuan County, the brigade department of the only brigade.

Liang Gang brought Liang Jun to visit his old classmate Chu Yunfei. Chu Yunfei was very happy and immediately ordered the chef to cook a table of good dishes and asked Fang Ligong to accompany him.

Chu Yunfei got up and poured wine for Liang Gang himself.

"Brother Tiefeng, today you and my brother will be drunk before they can stop."

Liang Gangsu signaled with a smile and said, "Brother Yunfei will be disciplined and have a good military preparation. If he is off the horse, he will be prosperous in the market and prosper in all industries. He can be called a generalist with both civil and military affairs."

"Brother Tiefeng Yan Chong." Chu Yunfei smiled, "Yes are so serious."

Fang Ligong smiled and said, "Brig Commander Liang is right. Since our only brigade entered Heyuan County, the market has indeed become much more prosperous than before. It can be seen that the Eighth Route Army's mud legs are only suitable for fighting guerrillas in the mountains. The county town and even big cities like Taiyuan are not something they can play with."

"What Chief of Staff Fang said is very true." Liang Gangdao, "but I'm afraid the Eighth Route Army won't think so."

"What if I don't think so?" Fang Ligong said disdainfully, "There has been a success. Our Shanxi Sui Army's Unique Brigade has completely gained a foothold in Heyuan County. Can the Eighth Route Army still take it back?"

Liang Gang laughed twice and said to Chu Yunfei: "Brother Yunfei, I heard that the war in Taiyuan is about to end. If nothing unexpected happens, the independent regiment will come back within three or two days."

"It's just right to come back." Chu Yunfei snorted twice and said again, "It's just right to tell Li Yunlong and the others clearly."

Speaking of this, he said, "This time you and my brother have helped them so much, helping them take Taiyuan in one fell swoop. Heyuan County and Fu'an County are treated as their thank-you gifts to us. The emperor is not too hungry. We have helped them so much, can they not give some thank-you gifts?"

Fang Ligong shook his head and said, "The brigade, the 386th Brigade of the Eighth Route Army has gained more benefits from Taiyuan this time. I just want to send us away, so that's too cheap."

Chu Yunfei smiled and said, "Brother Li Gong, what if you want it?"

Fang Ligong said in a deep voice: "Forget about weapons, equipment, money and food, etc., we all know that their Eighth Route Army is not well-off, so we don't snatch these from them. However, I think it's better to hand it over to our unique brigade of the Jinsui Army that we transported back from Taiyuan."

Speaking of this, Fang Ligong said: "The reason is also very simple, because these machines and equipment are simply decorations left in the hands of the Eighth Route Army. Only our Jinsui Army has the ability to build a steel plant, a power plant and a bullet plant, and then provide continuous supply to the entire Shanxi army."

Liang Gang picked up the wine glass and said, "Chief of Staff Fang is a great believer."

Fang Ligong quickly picked up the wine glass and touched Liang Gang gently.

Fang Ligong drank a few drinks, then found an excuse to get up and leave.

When Fang Ligong left, Liang Gang lowered his voice and asked, "Brother Yunfei, I'll give you a solid foundation with your brother. Have you really decided to deal with Li Yunlong like this?"

"Yes, I have decided to deal with Li Yunlong like this."

Chu Yunfei slapped the wine glass and said, "I don't understand that Li Yunlong dares to break up with us. Heyuan County and Fu'an County are the two mutes who have lost money. He can eat, and he has to eat even if he doesn't eat!"

Liang Gang frowned and said, "Li Yunlong is not a person who is willing to suffer losses."

"That's when you score." Chu Yunfei said, "This Taiyuan Battle, the 386th Brigade of the Eighth Route Army was in full swing, but it also caused them disaster."

Liang Gangdao: "Brother Yunfei means that a big tree attracts wind?"

"That's right, it's just a big tree that attracts wind." Chu Yunfei said, "In this Taiyuan Battle, the 386th Brigade of the Eighth Route Army showed strong offensive ability, which will definitely attract the attention of Okamura Yanji. It won't take too long to control the Japanese army in North China to shift the focus of the combat on the 386th Brigade of the Eighth Route Army."

"At that time, Okamura Yasuji will definitely mobilize heavy troops to sweep northwest Shanxi."

"If it weren't for my Unique Brigade and Brother Tiefeng's 94th Brigade to protect both wings, Li Yunlong's independent regiment would have to face the three-sided siege of the Japanese army!"

Speaking of this, Chu Yunfei said again: "Brother Tiefeng, you might as well think about it. When the Japanese army swept the Fuliang Mountains last time, if we had not protected the north and south wings of the independent regiment and firmly restrained the 41st Division of the Japanese Army, Li Yunlong's independent regiment would have been eaten by the 2nd Guard Division of the Japanese Army."

"It's true." Liang Gang nodded, "If two divisions were heading together to sweep Fuliang Mountain, Li Yunlong's independent regiment would not be able to withstand it anyway, and the result would be the entire army."

Chu Yunfei said, "So, I predict that Li Yunlong will not dare to break up with us."

Liang Gang said relievedly: "With Brother Yun Fei's words, I will feel relieved, brother."

While he was speaking, the guard company commander Sun Zhi hurried in and reported: "The commander of the Eighth Route Army Independent Regiment, Li Yunlong, the commander of the Eighth Route Army Independent Regiment, and Wang Ye, the chief of staff, asked for a visit."

"Well, Li Yunlong?"

Chu Yunfei was stunned when he heard this.

Liang Gang also said in surprise: "So fast?"

As the two looked at each other, Li Yunlong's voice suddenly sounded outside the door.

"Brother Chu, are you not welcome us? I have already signed up, but your guard still doesn't even let us in the door." With the sound of speaking, Li Yunlong's figure had already come in from outside the door.

Li Yunlong originally planned to return to Fuliangshan Fortress with the large army.

But as soon as he arrived at Niuwang Village, Li Yunlong changed his mind and took Wang Ye directly out of the army and headed straight to Heyuan County. He wanted to meet Chu Yunfei for a while.

"Brother Yunlong was joking." Chu Yunfei said with a smile, "Who dares to stop him based on your reputation?"

"Haha, is it true?" Li Yunlong said: "I, Li Yunlong, are so famous now?"

"That's not." Chu Yunfei said, "Who else in the northwest of Shanxi has never heard of your name?"

"I misunderstood so." Li Yunlong laughed, saluted a loosely, and said, "Li Yunlong, the commander of the Independent Regiment of the 386th Brigade of the 129th Division of the 18th Group Army of the National Revolutionary Army, has met Brigade Commander Chu and Brigade Commander Liang."

Chu Yunfei raised his hand and replied with a military salute, saying, "Brother Yunlong, aren't you still in Taiyuan this morning? Why did you arrive in Heyuan County now? Are you so anxious?"

"Oh, I can't wait. I've got a copy of my home." Li Yunlong lamented, "I'm worried. If I come back a few days later, I might not even be able to find the place to stay."

"Who is so bold that he dares to occupy Brother Yunlong's territory?" Chu Yunfei said with a sigh, "Brother Yunlong, since you and my brother are in a fight, then tell me the name of this person. I, Chu Yunfei, will definitely teach this person a lesson for you."

"Oh, it would be fine if it was someone else." Li Yunlong stared at Chu Yunfei's eyes and said, "But Brother Chu, you stab my brother in the back. I really didn't think of anything. Brother Chu, how sad I am."

Chu Yunfei hummed twice, and said without changing his face: "Brother Yunlong, I don't understand what you said. I am me? You said that I, Chu Yunfei, robbed your territory? This is really a snowy thing in June, a huge injustice! Brother Yunlong, when will I, Chu Yunfei, robbed your territory?"

Wang Ye rolled his eyes when he heard this. Is it yours own in Heyuan County?

Unexpectedly, Chu Yunfei had thick eyebrows and big eyes, and his ability to lie with open eyes is not inferior to Li Yunlong at all.

Li Yunlong was naturally not that easy to fool, so he directly said: "Brother Chu, our seven-foot-high man cannot open his eyes and tell lies. Before our independent regiment went south to fight Taiyuan, this Heyuan County was not related to Brother Chu's unique brigade of the Jinsui Army. How could Heyuan County become Brother Chu's? "

"Hehe, it turns out you are talking about Heyuan County." Chu Yunfei pretended to remember.

After a pause, Chu Yunfei said again: "Brother Yunlong, didn't we agree on it in advance?"

"It was agreed in advance?" Li Yunlong snorted, "What did I tell Brother Chu in advance?"
