Anti-Japanese War: Developing on my own, I brought back a US-equipped division

A new independent battalion?

Independent battalion commander Su Zheng?

Wu Xiaojin was stunned for a moment, then a happy smile appeared on his face. There was excitement in his eyes and his expression could not hide his excitement.

This... this is the person she has always wanted to interview!

Since she is a female reporter, she is naturally well-informed.

Although Wu Xiaojin didn't dare to say that he was 100% familiar with the military achievements made by the Independent Battalion and Su Zheng, he definitely knew what achievements the Independent Battalion and Su Zheng had made.

Especially after this time when the independent battalion alone wiped out the 4th Brigade and killed three Japanese generals and the emperor's nephew, a total of more than 200 Japanese officers, Wu Xiaojin wanted to interview Su Zheng and the independent battalion even more.

They want to see how the independent battalion fights this battle?

Such a beautiful fight!

Even if the boss didn't arrange for her to interview the Independent Camp and Su Zheng, Wu Xiaojin wanted to apply for the interview.

The boss looked at Wu Xiaojin's change and couldn't help but smile and said, "Xiao Wu... I can see that you are a little happy?"

Wu Xiaojin also spoke truthfully: "Boss...To be honest with you, I have always wanted to interview Su Zheng and his independent battalion."

"Now that you've given me this opportunity, I'm of course very happy."

The boss looked at Wu Xiaojin and asked, "Xiao Wu...how much do you know about the Independent Battalion?"

Wu Xiaojin spoke up like a treasure: "Boss, I don't know much about the Independent Battalion, but I know that the Independent Battalion fought a few battles very beautifully!"

"The Battle of Qili Town, the Battle of Wanjia Town, the Battle of Taiping Prisoner of War Camp, the Battle of Lijiaopo, the Ambush of Hanlue Village... These are all relatively large battles and very beautiful victories!"

"There were also some smaller battles, such as the Shentouling ambush, the Heiyunzhai bandit suppression campaign, etc. I know about all of these!"

The deputy chief of staff laughed and said, "Xiao Wu...640...it seems that you are very concerned about the independent battalion. You know all about these battles!"

Wu Xiaojin also smiled and said, "Hahaha; Deputy Chief of General Staff... The Independent Battalion is also considered an anti-Japanese heroic unit in Northwest Shanxi. As a reporter, I naturally know more about it and pay more attention to it!"

The boss nodded and said, "Okay... I'll leave this interview task to you!"

"You can rest at the headquarters for one night. I will arrange for someone to take you to the Xinzhong Village base tomorrow!"

Wu Xiaojin responded loudly: "Yes!"

To be honest, Wu Xiaojin is now very excited and fascinated, and can't wait to interview Su Zheng and the Independent Camp.

However, the headquarters is too far away from the Xinzhongcun base, and it is now almost evening, so we can only set off tomorrow.

This has made Wu Xiaojin excited and looking forward to this interview trip.

Not long after Wu Xiaojin left, Shangguan Yufei arrived.

Shangguan Yufei came to the general and deputy chief of staff, saluted and said: "Report to the general and deputy chief of staff, after the efforts of all of us, we have finally cracked the encryption algorithm of the Japanese cipher machine and code book!"

Hearing this, the boss stood up with a delighted look on his face and said, "Okay... this is a good thing, hahahaha!"

The Deputy Chief of General Staff also laughed and said, "Comrade Shangguan...you did a good job on this matter, haha!"

Ever since Shangguan Yufei retrieved the Japanese's cipher machine and code book at Feihu Ridge last time, he has been studying the Japanese's cipher machine and code book with the decryption experts at the headquarters.

For more than half a month, Shangguan Yufei had been studying the Japanese cipher machines and code books.

After more than half a month of research, Shangguan Yufei and a group of telegraph experts finally figured out the Japanese (bdda) cipher machine and code book and cracked the Japanese encryption method.

Although so much time has passed, the Japanese definitely don't use this set of code books anymore.

However, deciphering the Japanese's encryption rules and some encryption algorithms was of great help to the Eighth Route Army Headquarters in deciphering the Japanese's military telegrams.

This is the achievement of half a month.

Both the CEO and the Deputy Chief of General Staff were very happy when they found out!

Because this means that it will be relatively easier to decipher the Japanese telegrams in the future.

This is very important.

If we can decipher the Japanese's telegrams, we will be able to know their military deployment and related movements, and ultimately seize the initiative in the war.

The boss looked at Shangguan Yufei and said, "Comrade Shangguan... this time you and the comrades in the translation team have all made great contributions, hahahaha!"

"Now that we have learned the Japs' encryption method, it will be much easier for us to decipher their telegrams in the future!"

The Deputy Chief of General Staff nodded repeatedly and said, "This is a great achievement... Comrade Shangguan... you have worked hard during this period!"

Shangguan Yufei: "Captain, 0-0, these are just our responsibilities."

The general nodded and asked, "Well... You and the comrades in the translation team have worked hard. The organization and the troops will remember your contributions and efforts!"

"By the way...do you want any reward?"

Shangguan Yufei: "Boss...it was the organization that gave me the opportunity to study cryptography in Germany. That's why I, Shangguan Yufei, have achieved what I have today!"

"When I return from school, I will naturally serve my country and the organization. Deciphering the Japanese code books and cipher machines is just my job, and I won't talk about any rewards!"

The boss nodded and didn't ask any more questions.

Anyway, Shangguan Yufei and the people in the translation team have made contributions, and the headquarters and the organization will definitely reward them.

They are all heroes.

This is no small achievement.

That is very helpful for the war of resistance.

The deputy chief of general staff saw Shangguan Yufei and suddenly remembered something, so he said, "Comrade Shangguan... I have something to tell you!"

Shangguan Yufei: "Deputy Chief of General Staff, you go ahead."

Deputy Chief of General Staff: "It's like this... About half a month ago, Su Zheng's independent battalion agreed to the battle of Lijiapo, did you know?"

Shangguan Yufei had been studying the Japanese's cipher machines and code books for more than half a month, and basically turned a deaf ear to what was happening outside.

However, Shangguan Yufei still heard about the Battle of Lijiaopo from people at the headquarters.

She knew that Su Zheng's independent battalion fought very well in the Battle of Lijiaopo, but she didn't know the specific circumstances.

Even though Su Zheng came to the headquarters later, Shangguan Yufei was not aware of it at the time. He only found out afterwards that Su Zheng had come to the headquarters.

Shangguan Yufei nodded and said, "I know there is such a battle...what's wrong?"

The deputy chief of staff paused and continued, "It's like this...Su Zheng won the battle of Lijiapo, and the victory was very beautiful, so the general asked Su Zheng what reward he wanted!"

"The reward Su Zheng proposed is to transfer you to the independent battalion, and now I want to ask for your opinion!"

Now Shangguan Yufei has studied the devil's cipher machine and secret book, and the mission is considered accomplished.

It's time for headquarters to deliver on its promise.

The boss also remembered at this time: "Yes, yes, yes... That's right, Lao Zuo... I would have forgotten if you hadn't mentioned it!"

As the deputy general of the Eighth Route Army Headquarters, the boss was very busy with affairs of state, so it was normal that he did not remember this.

Transfer me to an independent battalion?

Such a request made Shangguan Yufei slightly stunned.

What...what does this mean?

The little girl's mind was a little confused.

The deputy chief of staff looked at Shangguan Yufei who was a little dazed and said, "Comrade Shangguan, just say what you think!"

"If you want to continue staying at the headquarters, we will talk to Su Zheng about it. I believe Su Zheng will not have any objections!"

"Because he said he would consider your opinion. If you don't want to go to the independent camp, you don't have to go."

"Of course...if you want to go to the independent camp, then the headquarters will respect your choice and will not force you to stay!"

Although Shangguan Yufei is an expert in telegraph and code translation, there is more than one expert in telegraph and code translation at the headquarters.

Therefore, if Shangguan Yufei went to the independent camp, it would not have much impact on the headquarters.

And if the headquarters needs Shangguan Yufei, then it is just a matter of orders.

Now Shangguan Yufei has completed the research task of cipher machines and code books, so it would be a good idea for him to go to the front-line troops to accumulate experience.

Shangguan Yufei thought for a moment, looked at the deputy chief of staff and the boss and said, "Boss, deputy chief of staff, I've made up my mind!"

"Now that I have completed my mission, I also want to go to the front-line troops for training."

"So if the Independence Camp needs me, I'm willing to go there!"

This is Shangguan Yufei’s attitude.

Don’t be coy…just say it straight out!

Very stylish!

The boss nodded and said, "Okay... our headquarters respects your choice."

"It just so happens that the headquarters has arranged for reporters to interview Su Zheng and the Independent Battalion tomorrow. You should pack your luggage and follow them to the Xinzhong Village base!"

Shangguan Yufei responded loudly: "Yes!"

After saying that, he went downstairs to prepare.

Generally speaking, there are more and greater development opportunities if you stay at the headquarters, and you can also learn from the bigwigs at the headquarters.

Therefore, under normal circumstances, many people are willing to stay at the headquarters.

However, Shangguan Yufei still decided to go to the independent battalion of the front-line combat troops for training.

The most important thing is that since Su Zheng has made such a request, Shangguan Yufei knows that the independent battalion needs him and will naturally go there.

It can be considered as repaying a favor.

After all, without Su Zheng, Shangguan Yufei would not be able to get the cipher machine and code book.

Therefore, Wu Xiaojin, a reporter of Anti-Japanese War Daily, and Shangguan Yufei, a telegraph translation expert, prepared to go to the Xinzhongcun base.

..................

That evening.

Xinzhongcun base.

Su Zheng, Yuan Xueyong, Su Bai and others finally returned to the Xinzhong Village base.

Because Yuan Xueyong's special operations company had many wounded soldiers, the marching speed was much slower, and it took more than five hours to return to the Xinzhong Village base.

However, we arrived safely along the way without encountering any Japanese or puppet troops.

After arriving at the Xinzhong Village base, Su Bai, Yuan Xueyong and others were stunned: This... is this the base of the Eighth Route Army?

PS: Four chapters will be completed at least. One automatic subscription or one reward will add one chapter. Thanks.

Chapter 209: The battalion commander's friend from Country M is really awesome! 105 large-caliber howitzer (more updates, please subscribe)

After entering the Xinzhong Village base, Su Bai and Yuan Xueyong were both stunned.

This...this is actually the base of the Eighth Route Army.

Because Su Bai and Yuan Xueyong were fleeing all the way, they also came into contact with the Eighth Route Army's base.

In many cases, the Eighth Route Army base was just a village, an ordinary village.

It’s just that the Eighth Route Army developed well in this village, had a good relationship with the local people, and had the support of the local people, that’s all.

But now the appearance of the Xinzhongcun base is an eye-opener for both Su Bai and Yuan Xueyong.

Although the Xinzhongcun base was also developed from a village, the village was very lively and prosperous.

Ordinary people come and go with relaxed smiles on their faces.

The sounds of hawking and shouting came one after another.

At the same time, you can also see fully armed independent battalion soldiers patrolling.

Such scenes made Su Bai and Yuan Xueyong stunned.

They didn't expect that Su Zheng's independent camp's base would be so prosperous, more prosperous than ordinary towns and counties.

This made them refresh their views on the Eighth Route Army base.

Yuan Xueyong looked at the scenes at the base and couldn't help but sigh and said, "I really didn't expect the Eighth Route Army's base to be so prosperous!"

Su Bai also nodded and said, "Yes...Captain Su, your base really opened my eyes!"
