Traveling through 1937, starting from the Battle of Songhu

Chapter 277 Planting the Seeds of Hope



Chapter 277 Planting the Seeds of Hope

For the next week, Gu Changfeng did not assign any tasks to the students. He just let them play and visit to their heart's content.

This made Tang Renli a little anxious, and he began to urge Gu Changfeng to arrange things.

He will be going back in two days. He will not feel at ease unless he arranges work for the students.

Gu Changfeng asked about the construction progress and when he saw that it was almost done, he took the students directly to the work site.

The female students' office was in Xianyaling, and the soldiers in the telecommunications platoon set up a separate room for them as a monitoring department.

In addition to this job, they also have to go to the classroom to teach soldiers. There is nothing else to do.

Gu Changfeng has teachers supported by the Eighth Route Army, so he doesn't really need these students to learn literacy.

The male students were on a ridge in the back mountain, where a large factory building had been temporarily built by a battalion of soldiers.

"Mingshan, Li Yan, you two have a heavy task," Gu Changfeng said seriously.

Li Mingshan and Li Yan said at the same time, "Captain, leave this to us."

They got into the roles relatively quickly, especially after observing for a week, and found that not only is life not hard here, but there is also money. In this day and age, you can do a lot of things with money.

Moreover, the environment is much better than expected, so they are quite satisfied.

Gu Changfeng nodded slightly and said, "Very good. Keep up this momentum. I believe you will achieve great results."

After saying that, he pointed to Wan Chenghai next to him and said, "Captain Wan is in charge of all your logistics matters. You can talk to him if you need anything."

There is no need to say much because everything starts from the beginning.

"Yes, Captain," the two agreed at the same time.

Gu Changfeng smiled and said, "It's not that urgent. You can study it slowly. We have anti-aircraft guns, mortars, infantry guns, and German heavy artillery."

"You can always transfer it if you need it. It doesn't matter if it's broken."

He has a system and points that can be redeemed at any time. It would be really fun if he could really produce research results for this group of students.

"Captain, are you serious?" Li Mingshan and Li Yan's voices trembled.

When the students behind them heard what Gu Changfeng said, their expressions also became excited.

We are all fresh graduates, who came to this mountain valley with a passion for learning, thinking that we would have to go through a period of hard struggle.

As a result, after arriving, they no longer had to worry about food, and even weapons research was allowed to be done by them, which touched them deeply.

"As long as you need it, seamless steel pipes, made in the Soviet Union, the United States, or Germany, these weapons can be obtained for you," Gu Changfeng said indifferently.

He didn't know how to make weapons, so all he could do was cultivate seeds, even if there were no results for the time being.

"Captain, you..." Li Mingshan's voice was obviously choked, but he could not say any more.

"By the way, the special forces still have a lot of high explosives. I'll ask them to send some over later."

"The only thing I ask is that you guys be careful, you're my babies!"

Gu Changfeng said cheerfully.

Well, after just a few words, all the students were moved to tears.

A gentleman will die for his friend, which is the true reflection of their inner thoughts now.

The students all vowed in their hearts that they must achieve something to repay Gu Changfeng for his kindness.

Gu Changfeng is not without selfish motives. With this group of students taking the lead, their classmates and teachers will definitely come if there is a real opportunity in the future.

To be honest, at this time, Gu Changfeng, who had the system, was not really short of these students. What he wanted was to cultivate seeds.

Of course, it would be nice if there were surprises later on.

After everything was arranged, Gu Changfeng fell into a state of doing nothing again. Everything in the base was in order and he didn't have to do anything, so he became the most idle one again.

In mid-November, Gu Changfeng finally came back to life.

The reason was that the Third Battalion had set its sights on the Japanese transport trains on the Pinghan Railway.

Recently, each battalion has achieved many results. The only threat to them is the Japanese in Baoding, so they fought very aggressively.

With the current combat effectiveness of each battalion, without the threat of heavy artillery, they can defeat the Japanese who came to the countryside to sweep the countryside like a piece of cake. The Japanese in several county towns kept asking for support from the higher-ups and did not dare to leave the city.

Even a week ago, Wu Mazi joined forces with Zhang Guofu from the Sixth Battalion and captured the Japanese in Quyang in just two hours.

The Japanese troops in Quyang were only one battalion. After suffering more than 200 casualties, a large amount of supplies were moved back to their temporary base.

Although there were no heavy artillery, Gu Changfeng distributed mortars, grenade launchers, and heavy machine guns to them when they went out.

With nearly 3000 troops surrounding Quyang, it was normal to capture it.

If Gu Changfeng had come instead, there wouldn't have to be so many casualties. The special forces could have easily handled the situation with the cooperation of a battalion.

"Old Zhao, leave half of the people to guard the hometown, and we will go to attack the Japanese train." Gu Changfeng found Zhao Ziqing who was on duty and said.

Zhao Ziqing's eyes lit up and he smiled, "It's finally our turn. Damn it! I want to fight an ant now."

He was so bored that he was either training or on duty every day, which made him, the captain of the special forces, almost crazy.

"Haha, then hurry up and prepare all the equipment and set off tonight," Gu Changfeng laughed so hard.

Indeed, it is a waste for the special forces to use this sharp knife for duty and guard.

He was worried that the Japanese would make a big move, so he never sent anyone out.

However, if the Japanese don't take action, he will attack the surrounding counties. He can't just sit there and do nothing!

In the afternoon, Gu Changfeng once again cleared out the more than 10,000 points earned by the various camps recently.

All of them were directly replaced with M60 bullets, a total of more than rounds.

In addition to preparing for the war, it also means replenishing the various camps.

This time he went out, he must not only deal with the train, but also go to the surrounding counties to do some things.

Otherwise, a Japanese transport team alone would not be enough to satisfy his appetite. What he needs now is points.

After instructing Zhou Qianli to arrange for the militia to deliver ammunition, the group disappeared from the base.

They are still walking through the mountains and forests. For the special forces, the mountains and forests are the places they are most familiar with.

After a forced march, we arrived at Lingyun Mountain near Quyang at noon the next day.

The third and sixth battalions were stationed here. After they captured Quyang, they directly transported away the Japanese supplies in the city. As for the county town, they didn't even want a dog.

"Commander Gu, you look so handsome in this outfit. Someday you can give our battalions some training, haha." Zhang Guofu said with a smile.

Gu Changfeng was dressed in special forces uniform at this time. It was definitely handsome. The special forces always treated people differently.

"Now that you're out, you're the ones in charge. You're the ones who choose people."

"When the time comes, let Lao Zhao help you train, and I will provide you with all the weapons."

Gu Changfeng's words made the two battalion commanders very happy. They knew how powerful the special forces were.

If their battalions all had special forces, it would not be easy to attack the Japanese county town!
