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

However, pens at that time were very prone to problems, so Parker kept helping students repair their pens.

After a while, George Parker knew the shortcomings of these pens and had accumulated a lot of experience in pen mechanics, so George Parker produced the Parker pen.

Parker pens are different from other pens on the market. They are free of many defects and flaws and have superior performance.

After the Parker fountain pen was first introduced, George Parker continued to innovate and explore new areas in process design and manufacturing technology, and eventually became the world's number one fountain pen brand.

If that were all, then Parker pens would just be good pens and not much else.

But that is not the case.

Soon, Parker pens received the royal commission from the British Empire.

This is not simple.

皇0-0室御用委任状是ying国皇..室为定义商品品质而推行的认证制度，一般是ying国0-0王室有关公司或个人颁发的证书，以此表明ying国-00王0-0室对其商品和服务感到满意。

Being able to obtain the royal commission means that you can be authorized by the Ying Kingdom’s royal family and become a brand of Ying Kingdom’s royal items.

Among the royal brands of the British Empire, Parker is the only fountain pen.

It is not easy to become the exclusive product of the Ying Kingdom's 0-0 royal family.

It is not possible to claim that something is used by the royal family of Yingguo just because it has been used by them. Instead, a written letter of authorization is required.

In the entire Ying Kingdom, only the three most important members of the royal family have the right to issue the "Royal Commission".

It can be seen that it is not easy for Parker pens to be recognized by the British royal family under such circumstances. It also reflects the quality and special status of Parker pens.

Later in the 20s and 0s, Parker pens gradually stepped onto the political stage and became the preferred writing tool for many great figures or celebrities. They have been appearing in many major events in the world and witnessing history.

As a result, the political status of Parker pens is also different.

It is precisely because of these reasons that Parker pens are not only pens of good quality, but also have special meanings and significance, as well as a different status.

Especially for the Eighth Route Army.

The Eighth Route Army was in short supply of supplies, and writing instruments like Parker pens were even rarer.

Things are rare.

The teacher got this Parker pen by accident, and he has always carried it with him, treating it as a treasure.

Now the commander gives this pen to Su Zheng, which is of great significance.

It's not as simple as a simple pen.

When they learned that the division commander wanted to give the pen to Su Zheng, the general and the deputy chief of staff were a little surprised.

The boss said, "Old Liu... this is your treasure, are you willing to give it to Su Zheng?"

The deputy chief of staff also smiled and said, "Yes...it seems that you approve of Su Zheng very much."

The division commander looked at the worn-out Parker pen in his hand, smiled and said, "Su Zheng has made such a great contribution to our 129th Division, it is only right that he should give him a pen!"

"Hey...Shangguan...let me pass this pen to Su Zheng!"

Shangguan Yufei nodded and said, "Okay!"

Then he took the Parker pen.

The Parker pen that my teacher gave me for my personal use was definitely not just a gift of a pen.

It is of great significance and represents different meanings.

The boss looked at Wu Xiaojin and said, "Xiao Wu, the interview with the Independent Battalion and Su Zheng is now in your hands!"

"We want to see a comprehensive and true report, and I also hope it will be a good publicity!"

Wu Xiaojin nodded and said, "Yes; first 0-0!"

Afterwards, the boss explained some things to Shangguan Yufei and Wu Xiaojin, and then Wu Xiaojin and Shangguan Yufei went to the Xinzhongcun base under the escort of the guards.

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

Xinzhongcun base.

Under the leadership of Chen Yi, the logistics personnel and villagers finally transported five American-made M2A1 105mm howitzers and related artillery shells back to the Xinzhong Village base at noon.

Because the structure of the American M2A1 105mm howitzer is very simple, it was assembled quickly. ...

Yang Zhihua led the artillery and looked at the five American-made M2A1 105mm howitzers in front of him. He was stunned and looked at Su Zhengdao in surprise: "Battalion Commander... This howitzer has a caliber of 105mm and is equipped with a sight. It has a simple structure and a long barrel. The range is definitely very long, and the power must be considerable!"

Seeing these howitzers, Yang Zhihua was so excited that his eyes lit up. He was even more excited than seeing beautiful women.

Although Yang Zhihua did not recognize that the howitzer in front of him was an American-made M2A1 105mm howitzer.

But he was a very talented and capable artilleryman. By looking at the structure of the American M2A1 105mm howitzer, he analyzed the characteristics of this howitzer.

Su Zheng nodded and said, "Zhihua, your analysis is good."

"This is the American-made M2A1 105mm howitzer, with a range of over two kilometers. It is extremely powerful, and its accuracy is much higher!"

"My friend in Country M took great pains to ship it back to China."

According to the development of history, the American-made M2A1 105mm howitzer in the United States had just begun mass production at this time.

However, due to the lack of information at that time, Yang Zhihua, Chen Yi and others had no idea whether the American-made M2A1 105mm howitzer had actually been produced.

Therefore, Su Zheng's reason could completely fool people and also explained the source of the weapons very well.

Yang Zhihua touched the American-made M2A1 105mm howitzer and said in amazement: "Battalion commander, your friend from Country M is really amazing. He can even get such a large-caliber howitzer!"

"The Italian artillery is really inferior to this American-made M2A1 105mm howitzer!"

Although he had never used the American-made M2A1 105mm howitzer, Yang Zhihua could tell that this howitzer was special.

I have to say that Yang Zhihua is still very talented.

He is indeed a four-star talent!

Friends from Country M?

This was just something Su Zheng made up.

If we must have a friend from Country M, then this friend from Country M is the system.

Chen Yi next to him smiled and said, "Captain, I suspect that your friend from Country M is selling 03.0-0 for fire, hahaha!"

Yang Zhihua: "Director Chen, in this war era, being able to sell such advanced firearms is a real skill."

"Anyway, I have never seen such a large-caliber howitzer in my country. When I was studying at the Military Academy, I never saw such a large-caliber howitzer, not even a picture of it!"

Yang Zhihua really feels like he is stroking these American-made M2A1 105mm howitzers as if they were treasures.

Su Zheng looked at Yang Zhihua like this, smiled and said: "Zhihua, don't touch me!"

"I'm giving you a mission, which is to lead the artillery soldiers to become familiar with the use of these American-made M2A1 105mm howitzers as quickly as possible, and to make full use of them at the critical moment!"

Yang Zhihua immediately raised his head and chest and saluted: "Yes...I promise to complete the task!"

Su Zheng felt relieved to hand over these American-made M2A1 105mm howitzers to Yang Zhihua.

As long as they are familiar with the use of these howitzers, they will definitely be able to play a significant role and catch the Japanese off guard.

At this time, Xiao Ya came to Su Zheng and said, "Captain, someone is coming from the headquarters..."

PS: Guaranteed four updates.

Chapter 211 Confirmed! Honorary Award from Headquarters and Deputy Head of the New First Regiment (Second update, please subscribe)

Is someone coming from headquarters?

Why did the headquarters suddenly arrange someone to come?

Su Zheng was slightly stunned and asked, "Someone from the headquarters is here? What are they here for?"

Xiao Ya: "Captain, there are two girls coming to the headquarters this time. One of them you know, Shangguan Yufei, and the other is a reporter from the Anti-Japanese Daily, Wu Xiaojin!"

Shangguan Yufei?

She came back to Independence Camp?

After the Battle of Lijiaopo, Su Zheng made a reward request to the boss, which was to transfer Shangguan Yufei to the independent battalion.

What the independent battalion is lacking now is a telegraph translator who is proficient in sending, receiving and deciphering telegrams.

Shangguan Yufei is a three-star talent.

If she joined the Independence Battalion, it would definitely be of great benefit to the Battalion's work in telecommunications.

Now that Shangguan Yufei has come to the independent battalion, it means that the boss and the headquarters have agreed to his reward request and will transfer Shangguan Yufei to the independent battalion.

This is a good thing!

Wu Xiaojin, a reporter from the Anti-Japanese Daily?

I guess this is for an interview?

"Let's go... back to the camp!"

Afterwards, Su Zheng returned to the battalion headquarters.

Independent camp department.

Shangguan Yufei and Wu Xiaojin had already been waiting for a while.

This was Shangguan Yufei's second visit to the Xinzhongcun base.

It has been only more than half a month since the last time he left the Xinzhongcun base. Now that he has returned to the Xinzhongcun base again, Shangguan Yufei has looked at him with new eyes.

Unexpectedly, the entire base has undergone earth-shaking changes.

13 more people!

There are also more houses.

It has also become more prosperous.

The fortifications at the entrance of the village looked even more unusual.

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

The entire Xinzhongcun base has changed from the inside out.

It looks pretty good.

The development momentum is very good.

Now that Shangguan Yufei has returned to the base again, he inexplicably feels like he's coming home.

However, the person who was most shocked and surprised was Wu Xiaojin.

Wu Xiaojin was a war correspondent for the Anti-Japanese War Daily. He followed many front-line troops to conduct battlefield reporting and related records, and also visited many military bases.

I have traveled all over the country and met all kinds of people.

I have come into contact with many ordinary people and the masses.

But Wu Xiaojin can say with confidence that the Xinzhongcun base is the best developed base she has ever seen.

As soon as he entered the base, Wu Xiaojin felt that the Xinzhongcun base was different.

The faces of the common people are all very peaceful and stable, and you can see smiles on their faces from time to time.

This means that life is stable.

Houses are constantly under construction.

There are quite a few people in the entire base.

Very much.

There is a scene of prosperity everywhere.

Rapid development.

It doesn't look like a village at all. It is more prosperous than many county towns and small towns.
