Seeing that Okamura Ningji admired Yue Weihan so much, Nan Zaoyun said with a little surprise: "Your Excellency, I really didn't expect you to have such a high opinion of your opponent, but as you said, Yue Weihan is indeed a fierce opponent of the Great Imperial Empire and the Great Imperial Army, and he can't be overvalued." ”

"Hmm." Okamura Ninji nodded, and suddenly asked again, "Miss Yunzi, I heard that Tada Jun once sent a special operations team to assassinate Yue Weihan, is there such a thing?" ”

"Hello." Nanzao Yunzi suddenly bowed his head and said, "But it didn't work." ”

Okamura Ninji said, "I want to know the specific story, Miss Yunzi, can you tell me?" ”

"Of course." Nanzao Yunzi nodded and said, "Actually, the whole process is very simple, the special operations team of Konoe Musashi has just walked out of Taihang Mountain, and before it has entered the county seat of Jingcheng, it was ambushed by the 39th Group Army, and there are more than 80 people in the entire special operations team, and only Konoe Musashi escaped back." ”

"Oh?" Okamura Ninji said happily, "What about Konoe Musashi? ”

"I've been ordered by Commander Tadajun to cut my stomach." Nanzao Yunzi sighed.

"It's a pity." Okamura Ninji suddenly said with great regret, "It's a pity. ”

Nanzao Yunzi said thoughtfully: "Your Excellency Commander, you still want to send special forces to assassinate Yue Weihan?" ”

"Why not?" Okamura Ningji said, "Yue Weihan is so dangerous, if you can get rid of him at the lowest cost, it will be a great thing for the empire and the imperial army, even if it fails, the sacrifice is only a few dozen special forces, and it has almost no impact on the national and military strength of the empire." ”

Nanzao Yunzi said: "Your Excellency Commander, I'm afraid this is difficult. ”

After saying this, Nanzao Yunzi said again: "Yue Weihan has a henchman named Ma Zhankui, this person is a bandit in southern Anhui, but he has incredible reconnaissance and counter-reconnaissance capabilities, and the assassination plan to assassinate Commander Tada Jun was planned by this person, and the whereabouts of the Guards Brigade were also discovered by this person's plainclothes team. ”

"Whether you succeed or not, it's always okay to try." Okamura Ninji said indifferently, "However, we still have to make another preparation, if the assassination fails, then try to plot against Yue Weihan." ”

Nanzao Yunzi smiled bitterly: "Your Excellency, Commander, I'm afraid this is even more difficult. ”

In fact, the plot against Yue Weihan was not the first to be proposed by Okamura Ningji.

The first commander of the North China Front, General Terauchi Shouichi, once had the same idea, and Nanzao Yunzi also tried every means to rebel against Yue Weihan, but the final result proved that Yue Weihan was definitely a diehard, and this person's hatred for the empire had been integrated into the bone marrow, and it was impossible to be rebelled at all.

"Never jump to conclusions until it's final." Okamura Ningji said indifferently, "It may be difficult for Yue Weihan to rebel, but if there is a one percent possibility, we must pay one hundred percent effort, Miss Yunzi, have you thought about it, if you can rebel against Yue Weihan, how many casualties will the imperial army be able to reduce?" ”

"Hello." Nanzao Yunzi suddenly bowed his head and said, "I understand, I will work hard." ”

"It's not enough to work hard." Okamura Ningji said with a faint gaze, "You must deeply analyze Yue Weihan's style of acting and principles of life, and then find out his weaknesses, and then use his weaknesses to make a fuss, I must believe that as long as you are a human being, you will definitely have weaknesses, and as long as you have weaknesses, you will definitely be used by us!" ”

"Hello." Nanzao Yunzi bowed his head suddenly, and then said, "Your Excellency Commander, I take the liberty of asking, aren't you going to sweep the Jingcheng Pass?" ”

"Sweeping the Jingcheng Pass?" Okamura Ninji shook his head and said, "Miss Yunzi, do you think we have what it takes to start another big battle?" Yes, the main force of the front army is back, and the base camp has also provided us with ammunition reserves for a while, but have you thought about it, at least for half a year, the base camp will not be able to provide us with any more provisions! ”

Nanzao Yunzi was awe-struck when she heard this, and then she remembered that the empire's finances were on the verge of collapse.

Okamura Ningji sighed, and said with regret: "Two months ago, the imperial army had already reached Hengyang, if the base camp can hold out for another three months, we will be able to fight all the way to Guangxi, Yunnan and even Sichuan, once we occupy the entire southwest of China, the resistance of the 39th Group Army at Jingcheng Pass will become meaningless, but it is a pity that ......"

Nanzao Yunzi also has some regrets, thinking that the empire is still too small, and the national strength is still too weak.

Okamura Ninji quickly adjusted his mood, and said: "Therefore, in this sweep, the primary operational goal of the front army is to restore the consolidation area and quickly stabilize the order in North China. ”

…………

Jingcheng base.

Yue Weihan didn't know that Okamura Ningji, an old devil, would have such a high opinion of him.

At this meeting, Yue Weihan was taking Liu Yi, Lu Xiufeng and other confidants to inspect the arsenal in Cangyan Mountain, and the chief engineer Pi Xiaocheng was accompanying and explaining with a cadre of experts and technicians from the four major factories.

After more than two months of intense construction, the Cangyan Mountain base area has been preliminarily completed.

The main buildings of the two factories are basically hidden deep in the belly of the mountain, and the huge chimneys cannot be hidden, but they have also undergone unique technical treatment, and the exit is opened on the cliff.

Thousands of pieces of equipment in the Taiyuan Arsenal have also been installed, and a total of more than 40 large-scale workshops have been built!

After the recovery of Shanxi, Yue Weihan lost no time in asking Chief Yan for many experts and skilled workers from the original Taiyuan Arsenal, plus the fleeing workers who were collected one after another, as well as the skilled workers who were asked for from Yucheng, by the end of the 27th year of the Republic of China, the Taihang Arsenal had more than 200 scientific research personnel and more than 9,000 skilled workers.

Such a scale is not much different from the Taiyuan Arsenal in its heyday.

However, now, the vast majority of workshops are still in a state of shutdown and have not started.

Only the production line of the ammunition reloading workshop is working overtime at full capacity.

In the first two months, the 39th Army was able to attack frantically, thanks to the ammunition reloading line.

Seeing Yue Weihan frowning inadvertently, Mr. Pi hurriedly explained: "General seat, because the steel plant has just been built, and the supply of iron ore is extremely unstable, the output of steel is still very limited, in addition, the rolling process is also relatively backward, and the rolled steel can basically only be used to make grenades, so ......"

Yue Weihan waved his hand and asked, "Mr. Pi, can the rolling process be improved?" ”

"Yes, of course." Pi Xiaocheng hurriedly said, "It's actually not difficult, as long as it's ......"

"I'll leave it to you, I just want the result." Yue Weihan raised his hand to stop Pi Xiaocheng from continuing to explain, and said, "After the New Year, the Taihang Arsenal must really be launched, is the production capacity...... At least 3,000 rifles, 50 machine guns, 50 60 mortars, 5,000 shells, and 5,000,000 bullets per month, no problem, right? ”

Pi Xiaocheng made a silent calculation, and said confidently: "Absolutely no problem!" ”

Seeing that Pi Xiaocheng agreed so readily, Yue Weihan couldn't help but be a little surprised.

Liu Yi, Lu Xiufeng and other henchmen behind Yue Weihan were even more excited, 3,000 rifles, 50 machine guns, 50 60 mortars and enough shells and bullets, this is almost the equipment of a regiment, and it is an elite regiment with an artillery battalion, equipping a regiment a month, and it will be a group army again in a year!

"Okay." Yue Weihan said, "Mr. Pi, if you can't complete the task when the time comes, I'll look for you." ”

"Don't worry, if you can't complete the task, you can shoot me." Pi Xiaocheng is indeed very confident, this kid has already calculated, the equipment and skilled workers of the Taihang Arsenal are completely sufficient, if the raw materials are sufficient and full power, the production capacity will definitely exceed Yue Weihan's expectations by more than two times!

The supply of iron ore has also been negotiated with Chief Yan.

After agreeing to deliver 50,000 oceans per month, the mines in Dai County and Lao County will be freely mined by the 39 th Group Army, and Ma Daguai's garrison brigade has already sent two battalions to set up two prisoner of war camps in the mining areas of Dai County and Lao County, and 5,000 prisoners of war will soon be sent there, and iron ore will be mined all day and night.

As for the transportation of iron ore, Yuxian County has organized a wheelbarrow transportation team, and there is no big problem.

After doing the math, Pi Xiaocheng really couldn't find a reason to complete the task, unless the bombers of the Yue Army could inflict a devastating blow to the arsenal, but the possible surnames were very small, and the forty or so workshops of the Taihang Arsenal were hidden in the reckless Taihang Mountain, and the possible surnames discovered by the bombers of the Yue Army were almost zero.

Pi Xiaocheng was in a relaxed mood, and suddenly said: "Boss, I'll show you something good." ”

Seeing Pi Xiaocheng's mysterious appearance, Yue Weihan couldn't help but ask, "What is it?" ”

"You'll find out later." Yue Weihan found that the security here was extremely strict, and it was never an exaggeration to describe it as three steps, one post, five steps and one sentry.

Yue Weihan immediately understood, this was obviously the scientific research institute under the Taihang Arsenal.

It was Yue Weihan's order to build a subordinate scientific research institute in the arsenal, but after the order was given, he didn't ask any more specifically, because the war was too tight during this time, first recovered Shanxi, recovered Shanxi, and then did it with the old devil Tada Jun, and it was more than two months, and Yue Weihan even pulled down the work of the officer's crash course.

Yue Weihan didn't expect that Pi Xiaocheng had already set up a scientific research institute.

Thinking of this, Yue Weihan's heart couldn't help but become eager, looking at the appearance of Pi Xiaocheng, the two devils, who were in trouble, but they didn't know what good things had happened?
