By the time Liu Gen woke up, the soldiers had already taken him to a place less than five kilometers away from Huangya Cave.

When he opened his eyes, the rising sunlight made Liu Gen a little uncomfortable. It was still night when he successfully evacuated, but now it was daytime, and after Liu Gen got used to it, he looked at the sun hanging in the sky and knew that it should be eight or nine o'clock in the morning.

"Put me down." After finding himself lying on a stretcher, Liu Gen opened his mouth and shouted.

The soldier carrying the stretcher suddenly became nervous when he saw Liu Gen wake up, and after he shouted, the surrounding soldiers quickly gathered around Liu Gen.

Getting up from the stretcher, Liu Gen could see that he was surrounded by soldiers, which made her a little helpless, could it be that these soldiers were still worried that he would run to find Chen Ergou and them? When Liu Gen woke up, he realized what had happened last night, and Chen Ergou shot him out in order to let him leave.

Until now, Liu Gen can still feel the pain in his neck, and in order to knock Liu Gen unconscious, Chen Ergou used a lot of strength.

Liu Gen also didn't expect Chen Ergou to stun him, otherwise with Liu Gen's strength, it would be impossible for Chen Ergou to knock him out if he was on guard. It's just that although Liu Gen is still very worried about the safety of Chen Ergou and the others, he knows that he can't go to Chen Ergou and the others again.

Looking at the soldiers around him, Liu Gen said helplessly: "Spread out, what are you nervous about?" It's all here, and it's impossible to find you Camp Commander Chen even if I want to. ”

"Don't worry, I won't lie to everyone, leave a comrade to tell me what happened after I fainted last night, and move on."

The soldiers looked at Liu Gen, they were a little hesitant, they were a little unsure whether Liu Gen was really not going to go to Chen Ergou and them. In the end, these fighters made a decision, and they divided a few people to follow Liu Gen, so that even if Liu Gen wanted to leave, he needed to break through the barriers of these fighters.

Liu Gen was a little helpless, seeing a few fighters following him, how could he not understand what these soldiers meant, but he didn't say anything.

The team moved on, and in order to care for the wounded, the team did not move fast.

A company commander came to Liu Gen's side and told him about the events of last night, and after Liu Gen fainted, they took Liu Gen and set off in the direction of Huangya Cave. In order to avoid revealing their whereabouts, they have arranged for the soldiers to clear the relevant traces, and they may not be able to clear all the traces, but unless the devils search carefully, it is still difficult for the devils to find the traces of the soldiers in the direction of Huangya Cave.

And not long after the soldiers left with Liu Gen, there was an explosion, which was the devil troops who followed and triggered the tricky thunder arranged by Chen Ergou and others.

After the devil triggered the trick thunder, Chen Ergou took the initiative to shoot at the devil with the soldiers, attracting the attention of the devil, so that the soldiers could leave with Liu Gen safely.

"Instructor Liu, did you say that the battalion commander would be okay? Will they really be able to escape from the devils? Company Commander Zhang Yi's eyes were full of worry. Zhang Yi is a veteran, and he has been with Chen Ergou, the battalion commander, for several years, and has a very good relationship with Chen Ergou.

Zhang Yi knew that it was a little wrong for him to ask Liu Gen at this time, but he still couldn't help it, it was his old battalion commander, if there was really any problem, he didn't know how to tell the soldiers.

"Company Commander Zhang, don't worry, with Battalion Commander Chen's ability, there shouldn't be a problem easily."

"Besides, guerrilla warfare with devils is what our Eighth Route Army is best at, and Battalion Commander Chen and they will definitely be able to escape the tracking of the devil troops and throw the devil troops away. All we have to do is to wait for Camp Commander Chen and them to return safely in Huangya Cave. Liu Gen could only comfort like this.

Liu Gen wasn't sure if Chen Ergou and his soldiers would be able to escape from the pursuit of the devil troops, but now, he could only hope enough for Chen Ergou and them. Liu Gen believes that as long as Chen Ergou does not have too many problems during their period, then as long as they are entangled with devils in the mountains and forests, they can still get rid of devils.

"Company Commander Zhang, at our current speed, it should take another two hours to reach the Yellow Cliff Cave, so that the soldiers can be vigilant."

"In case we are discovered by the devils and we enter the Yellow Cliff Cave, causing the Yellow Cliff Cave Arsenal to be discovered by the devils, then we are the sinners of the Eighth Route Army." Liu Gen explained to Zhang Yi beside him. The location of the Yellow Cliff Cave Arsenal is very secret, and it is difficult for the devil troops to find the entrance to the Yellow Cliff Cave, if it is really because of them that the Yellow Cliff Cave Arsenal is exposed, then it will be a big problem.

Even if Huangya Cave has a headquarters special service group stationed here, but it is really found by the devil army, even if it can be successfully defended, there will be certain casualties, which Liu Gen does not want to see.

"Yes! I'll take some of the soldiers to scatter the guard immediately! Zhang Yi knew the seriousness of the matter and responded directly.

Zhang Yi is a man of action, he directly led the soldiers to act, in order to avoid the existence of devils around, he deliberately took the soldiers to set up a guard five hundred meters away. As long as any devils are found, then the warriors will stop their actions and give up going to the Yellow Cliff Cave.

There is no need to talk to the soldiers in detail, they clearly know the importance of the Yellow Cliff Cave Arsenal, if it is because of them that the Yellow Cliff Cave Arsenal is exposed to the eyes of the devils, then they will not forgive themselves.

Liu Gen and the soldiers have the same idea, if he is really discovered by the devil, then he will definitely give up directly entering the Yellow Cliff Cave, Liu Gen cannot survive for himself and others, which leads to the exposure of the Yellow Cliff Cave Arsenal, the Yellow Cliff Cave Arsenal is very important, whether it is now or in the future, the Yellow Cliff Cave Arsenal is quite important.

Along the way, Liu Gen and the others were on sufficient alert, and in order to hide their tracks, they did not move too fast. Keeping the fighters vigilant while advancing will undoubtedly drain a lot of their energy, but the fighters have no opinion on this.

When Liu Gen and the others entered within five miles of the Huangya Cave, they were discovered by the soldiers of the headquarters special service group responsible for defending the Huangya Cave, and soon, Liu Gen and the others were answered. The cadets had already arrived at Huangya Cave before dawn, and the special mission of the headquarters had already received an order to let them take charge of receiving the people of the artillery school.

Knowing that Liu Gen and the soldiers were still behind, the soldiers of the special task force came to Huangya Cave five miles away to respond under the order of Commander Ou. At the same time, in order to avoid the exposure of the entrance to the Yellow Cliff Cave, Commander Ou had already asked the soldiers to explore the surroundings clearly to avoid the existence of devil troops.

Last time, the Okazaki Brigade of the devil inadvertently discovered the entrance to the Yellow Cliff Cave and entered the Yellow Cliff Cave Arsenal and carried out some damage. I think the devil still knows a little about the existence of the Huangyadong Arsenal, and it is precisely because of this that the headquarters will arrange the headquarters special mission in Huangyadong to ensure the safety of the arsenal.

After being successfully received, Liu Gen and the soldiers were also a lot more relieved, and they marched towards Huangya Cave under the leadership of the soldiers of the special service group.

It is not the first time that Liu Gen has come to Huangyadong, when the arsenal was transferred back to Huangyadong, as the head of the artillery department of the arsenal, he still came to Huangyadong and found a good position for the artillery department.

The artillery department is somewhat different from other departments in the arsenal, and many departments choose to place their departments in Huangya Cave for safety reasons. The artillery department is different, if the artillery department is really placed in the Yellow Cliff Cave, then it will only limit the development of the artillery department.

Director Cheng respected Liu Gen's opinion very much, and he agreed with Liu Gen's idea of setting up the artillery department outside the Huangya Cave, after the artillery department was established, it would definitely have to carry out a certain test firing, and there would be a lot of artillery shells, which would really be placed inside the Huangya Cave, and if there was a problem, it would cause a lot of losses.

It has been a few months since Liu Gen last returned to the arsenal, and during this time, he has stayed in the artillery school to teach the cadets and successfully trained the first batch of cadets.

However, in the few months that Liu Gen did not return to the arsenal, he also knew some changes in the arsenal.

In April this year, Cheng Mingsheng, the director of the factory, was transferred to the Third Bureau of the Yan'an Military Commission as the director and engineer of the electrical repair factory, and the new director of the arsenal was succeeded by Xu Changxun. According to Liu Gen's understanding, Xu Changxun was an old Red Army, and the predecessor of the Huangyadong Arsenal, the Headquarters Repair Institute, was established by Xu Changxun, who was then the deputy chief of the Fourth Section of the Staff Office of the Eighth Route Army Headquarters.

At that time, Xu Changxun was the director of the headquarters repair institute, absorbing skilled workers from all over the world, but because the headquarters machinery institute had a large number of workers involved, but the lack of real technical force, for this reason, the central government deliberately replaced Xu Changxun as the director of Cheng Mingsheng, who graduated from the Department of Electrical Engineering of Waseda University in Japan.

Now that Cheng Mingsheng is leaving, the headquarters will re-transfer Xu Changxun to the arsenal as the director, which is still very good, and Xu Changxun should be the most suitable person in terms of understanding the arsenal.

Along the way, Liu Gen thought about the relevant information of Xu Changxun, the new factory director, and he was a little worried before he really met the new factory director, and he didn't know what the temper of the new factory director was. It's normal for Liu Gen to be a little apprehensive in his heart, who let him not deal with the new factory director?

After Director Xu Changxun took over the arsenal, he also informed Liu Gen, hoping that Liu Gen would be able to return to the arsenal. The artillery department of the arsenal was not in the presence of Liu Gen, and it was difficult to achieve too many results, but because Liu Gen was busy training the cadets of the artillery school at that time, he could not get out, so he could not return to the arsenal.

Now that he is back in the arsenal, it is normal for Liu Gen to be apprehensive.

Passing through the urn corridor, this is the only passage from the east of the golden mountain, the cliffs on both sides are thousands, 1.5 kilometers long, about zhang wide, it is a natural corridor in the shape of "S", because you can only see the blue line when you look up, so the local people call it a line of heaven again.

Liu Gen could see that there were a lot of defensive facilities here, and according to the terrain here, even if the devil troops discovered the Huangyadong Arsenal, it would be difficult to break into the Huangyadong Arsenal.

If you really encounter the attack of the devil army, then you only need to place a part of the troops on the two peaks of the urn, and the stones thrown from them will become a sharp weapon to kill the enemy.

On the way through the urn corridor, Liu Gen could feel the soldiers of the headquarters special service group quietly looking at him from time to time, which made Liu Gen a little helpless, he knew that this was because these soldiers had heard of him. I don't know if I have disappointed these fighters, he is just an ordinary person, there are no three heads and six arms.

When he entered the Huangya Cave through the urn corridor, Liu Gen's eyes suddenly lit up, and there were many fields in front of him, and he could also see the arsenal behind the fields. It is a clearing surrounded by cliffs on all sides, and the Yellow Cliff Cave is a natural stone cave located in the rock wall to the east.

"Commander? Director Xu? How did you guys get here? When Battalion Commander Liu, who responded, saw Captain Ou and Director Xu waiting at the exit, he couldn't help but be stunned.

Captain Ou laughed, "Why can't we come?" The name of Liu's 'Cannon God', we have heard of it for a long time. ”

Immediately, Battalion Commander Liu reacted, no wonder his regiment commander and Director Xu of the arsenal would come to greet him. The gentle conversation with Liu Gen along the way made Battalion Commander Liu forget the achievements that Liu Gen had achieved, and in Liu Gen, he did not feel the slightest arrogance, only a deep approachability.

Liu Gen took a step forward and saluted seriously: "Liu Gen has seen Head Ou and Director Xu. ”

"This time, it was discovered by the devil sweeping troops, and I still have to be picked up by Commander Ou."

"Director Xu, how can I let you come to answer. As the head of the artillery department of the Arsenal, I'm really sorry that I haven't been able to come to the Arsenal. ”

In the face of Director Ou and Director Xu, Liu Gen's attitude was very respectful, and the two of them deserved Liu Gen's respect.

"Hahaha, don't be so polite, you may not have seen me, but from the mouths of the bosses of the headquarters, I already know that you Liu 'Cannon God', that can be described as a famous name. I've always wanted to find a chance to meet you, and now that I finally have a chance to meet, I don't have to be so polite. Head Ou said with a smile.

When he was in the headquarters before, he learned a lot of Liu Gen's exploits from the bosses, and knew that Liu Gen's was not simple. What's more, even if Liu Gen did not make any achievements, he was also a member of the Eighth Route Army, and Commander Ou naturally had no reason not to save him.

Director Xu on the side was speechless, he looked at Liu Gen with a smile, and his impression of Liu Gen was very good. Director Xu also knew Liu Gen's ability, and knew that Liu Gen did not come to the arsenal, so he really had important things to do. Now that Liu Gen has come to Huangya Cave, there is no possibility of letting Liu Gen leave easily.

"Let's go back first, Minister Liu, they are in a hurry all the way, let them have a good rest first." Seeing that Director Ou wanted to continue the conversation with Liu Gen, Director Xu had to open his mouth to remind.

At this time, Captain Ou also reacted, it is true, Liu Gen and they have been in a hurry, and now that they have just come to Huangya Cave, it is better to let them rest. Commander Ou could also see that many of the soldiers were wearing bandages, and there were blood oozing from them.

Even Liu Gen's arm was bandaged in several places, but because Liu Gen looked very energetic, Captain Ou subconsciously ignored Liu Gen's injuries.

"I'm in okay condition, but there are a few injured people who are seriously injured, and I hope to get timely treatment." Liu Gen said.

Naturally, the two of them, Head Ou and Director Xu, did not have any opinions, and before they came, they had notified the doctors in Huangya Cave to get ready. Soon, the seriously injured in the team were treated, and it was not a long time since they were injured, and the possibility of being able to save them was still very high.

It's just that after the doctor conducted an examination, he also told Liu Gen a bad news, because the injuries of the two seriously injured were relatively serious, they had to amputate their limbs if they wanted to survive.

Knowing the news from the doctor, Liu Gen was very helpless, he wanted the doctor to find another way to treat the wounded, but because the medical conditions here are like this, choosing to use other treatment methods, these two seriously injured people may not survive. In the end, in order to survive the two seriously injured people, Liu Gen could only choose to have the doctor amputate them.

Due to the coma of the two seriously injured people, Liu Gen couldn't tell them about it, and could only hope that after they woke up, they would be able to understand Liu Gen's choice. Compared with dying, it is still acceptable to survive an amputation. Maybe after the amputation, these two warriors will no longer be able to go to the battlefield to kill the enemy, but in this era, as long as they can survive, how much more do they want?

After arranging for the wounded to be treated, and the soldiers to rest, Liu Gen had free time to wander around the arsenal.

Head Ou and Director Xu have a lot of things to do, so naturally it is impossible to follow Liu Gen all the time, and if they are really allowed to follow Liu Gen all the time, then Liu Gen will definitely not be able to adapt.

Wandering around the arsenal, Liu Gen found that the arsenal had changed a lot, and the workers were very serious in manufacturing. Compared to the previous Arsenal, the Arsenal is now more productive, and these improvements mean that the Arsenal is able to produce more weapons and ammunition per month.

In terms of weapon production, the arsenal mainly uses Bayi horse rifles and 60mm mortars, and also produces a lot of grenadiers. The flexibility of the grenadier is very suitable for the guerrilla warfare of the Eighth Route Army, which allows the fighters to have corresponding fire support in guerrilla warfare.

The weight of a 60mm mortar is not heavy, but it is naturally easier to carry than a grenadier.

When he came to the artillery department, Liu Gen could see that the workers were manufacturing the barrels of 60mm mortars, and in the production of barrels, the workers were still mainly hand-made, which made the accuracy of the 60mm mortars produced unable to be guaranteed. Seeing this, Liu Gen found that the arsenal still needed to add a lot of machine tools, at least machine tools for the production of qualified gun barrels.

And it is not difficult for Liu Gen to create a machine tool that can produce qualified artillery shells. Originally, Liu Gen still wanted to directly devote himself to the manufacture of weapons, but now he can only further improve the production conditions of the arsenal to ensure that there will be no problems in the production of weapons in the future.

Back in the arsenal arranged for him, Liu Gen lay on the table to write and draw, and soon the drawings were drawn by Liu Gen.
