After the loss of Teng County, the Japanese army was extremely arrogant and did everything they could, going straight to Taierzhuang.

Gathered more than 40,000 troops, 70 or 80 tanks, and plus planes to help the battle, rushed to Taierzhuang Nigou Station on March 23, in the early morning of the 24th, the Japanese army bombarded the Taierzhuang fortifications with heavy artillery fire, and then took tanks as the lead, rushed into the city.

Most of the houses in the area of Rantaierzhuang are stone buildings, so each house is a fortress. The defenders held the house as a stronghold and did not retreat until death.

……

The Japanese stormed for three days and nights. Fierce street battles with the defenders of the city. The battle continued until April 3, with more than seven-tenths of the defenders suffering casualties, and two-thirds of the positions had been occupied by the Japanese. The defenders of Taierzhuang are still guarding a corner of Nanguan and are desperate not to retreat.

"Yalu! The people of China are so tenacious! A Japanese lieutenant general looked at the battle situation and was a little angry, he gathered 40,000 troops and prepared to capture Taierzhuang, but it took ten days to fight! The Chinese army still did not occupy the south of Taierzhuang and refused to retreat!

"Your Excellency, Division Commander, although the resistance of the Chinese army is stubborn, it is only the sunset of the West Mountain, and most of the positions have been occupied by the imperial army! I believe that if you attack again, the people of China will not be able to resist it! ”

"Yo Si! Mobilize heavy artillery and tanks, and take the southern position for me! ”

"Hey!"

……

"Katsuji, I've been at your base for more than ten days." Yan Fuqing looked at Chen Xiu, in the past ten days, Chen Xiu has made him very satisfied, at least, Chen Xiu has done many more things than he has done in more than ten years, and it is not just limited to medicine.

"Not bad." Chen Xiu nodded, and in the past ten days, he has discussed many issues with Yan Fuqing, and also discussed some on the production of penicillin.

"Penicillin production line, you have to speed up the construction!" Yan Fuqing sighed, "We are old, and the future of China depends on you." ”

"Old Yan is serious." Chen Xiu still feels that he has gained a lot, and in the past ten days, Liuba County Hospital has cut the ribbon and opened, and at present, he does not expect to have revenue, "The matter of penicillin is now the top priority of the base, I believe that it will not take long to produce it." ”

Yan Fuqing nodded, "Do it well." ”

"It's nature."

"Your base has a lot of functions, and there are some things that you have to hide a little, if you don't hide it, there will be more people with ulterior motives." Yan Fuqing still gave Chen Xiu some kind reminders, "In particular, you are now in a military position, and you can be transferred away with a single order, after you are transferred, what will happen to the base?" You have to think about it. ”

Chen Xiu was silent for a while, Yan Fuqing was right, he had to have the strength to protect himself, if a paper order really came, what should he do?

"What can Yan Lao do?"

"If you ask me, you might as well ask your father." Yan Fuqing smiled, "I see that your hospital has relatively few teaching functions, I suggest that you can recruit a group of people, since you have built a school, it is not bad for those classrooms, teaching medicine, you can let Mingyuan and a few people take turns to go to class, it can always be taught, our country is short of all kinds of talents." ”

"Hmm." Chen Xiu nodded, "Yan Lao is right, it is because of the lack of all kinds of talents that I will build the school, and now, the school has been open for more than a month, although they are all children, but I think that as long as they can persevere, in another ten years, these children will become pillars." ”

"Eh, how nice it would have been if you had been born a few years earlier?" Yan Fuqing sighed again.

……

"Chen, this time, I really should go back." Will looked at Chen Xiu, in his eyes, there was also reluctance, but, the production of mortars has already had some output, as long as Shack according to their original idea, after the equipment is produced, it can be produced on the assembly line, as for the imitation research of the Garand rifle, it has also been successful, and then, the base can imitate this semi-automatic rifle, and the caliber of the imitation rifle bullet is 7.92mm.

"That's right." Chen Xiu nodded, "Mr. Will, I really thank you very much for the past few months!" ”

As far as the German engineer is concerned, Chen Xiu is really impressed, "When my country becomes strong, when there is no war in the world, Mr. Weir, I welcome you to come to China!" ”

"Chen, I will!" Will nodded seriously, "I'm so glad to meet you!" Don't worry, I will take care of the Jewish affairs and try to help you, our company still has a little say in China. ”

"Thank you!" Chen Xiu can only say thank you, what Will brought to him is not just the production line. Looking at Will and the technicians behind Will, they all carried their bags, and Chen Xiu knew that this was really going to be separated. "Goodbye, friends! Welcome to China! ”

"Goodbye!"

After everyone waved goodbye, Will took the people and left slowly. There are soldiers to escort them, and after being escorted to Chongqing, they will take a boat to Shanghai, and from Shanghai, they will take a boat back to Germany.

"Will has really helped the base a lot." Chen Yifu spoke, "Will is gone, what should you do?" ”

"With Mr. Sack and Zhang De here, they can withstand Mr. Will's work." Chen Xiu replied, "Dad, I have something to discuss with you." ”

Chen Yifu raised his eyebrows and followed Chen Xiu.

After walking to the office, Chen Xiu looked at Chen Yifu and spoke, "Dad, I want to ask you to sit at the base in Liuba County." ”

"What do you mean?" Chen Yifu frowned.

"The entire independent brigade has military ranks, and as long as we have an order, we will go elsewhere." Chen Xiu spoke, "Nowadays, the production capacity of the base is getting higher and higher, and the value is getting bigger and bigger, and it will be coveted by some people. This base, after all, is privately run from beginning to end, and we have paid for it ourselves! I won't give it to the government or some people for nothing! ”

Chen Yifu nodded slightly, indeed, even if they are patriotic, this base, it is impossible to say that it will be sent, if it is really delivered, this base will become a gold-plated place for some people, and if they come to be an official for a few days, they can produce some equipment, and they will have political achievements. Even more terrifying, these people will also reach out to the state. "You're right."

"In the final analysis, this base is our family's industry, but I have a military position now, and I am really transferred away one day, or go to the front line, and there should always be someone to take care of the base." Chen Xiu continued, "Those soldiers of the Farming Reclamation Regiment are all veterans, and their combat effectiveness is still there, and I will eliminate them, so even if they are really transferred, the Reclamation Regiment will not leave." ”

Chen Yifu nodded, if you want to defend the base, you naturally need people and guns.

"So, Dad, will you promise?"

Chen Yifu sighed, "If I don't agree, can I do it?" You've got it all on the job! ”
