Chapter 107
After Zhou Weihan came back from the headquarters, he went straight to Zhang Fangyin and explained the situation.

"Commander Zhou, since I have joined your Eighth Route Army, I can follow your New Second Regiment or go to your headquarters arsenal. I will obey the arrangement." Zhang Fangyin also figured it out during this time. It looks like oil and salt do not enter.

"Mr. Zhang, you are an expert in military industry. It happens that the arsenal wants to research a rifle, so you should go to the headquarters arsenal to work for a while." Zhou Weihan said.

"Rifle?" Upon hearing Zhou Weihan's words, Zhang Fangyin immediately became interested.

"Then how do I arrange for my daughter? I'm just this precious girl, and I can't let her be an undercover agent anymore." Zhang Fangyin then said tangled.

"Father, don't worry about my affairs, you have your own arrangements in the organization." Zhang Yuanlan said.

"Mr. Zhang, don't worry. I have already reported Comrade Zhang Yuanlan's problem to the organization. The chief said to let her follow the New Second Regiment first. I will guarantee her safety. Don't worry." Zhou Weihan explained.

It was Zhou Weihan's suggestion to let Zhang Yuanlan stay in the New Second Regiment. If you keep your daughter, you, a father, can still run away.

"That's good. After I leave, you can let Huang Liang be in charge of the booth of your New Second Regiment's Equipment Repairing Institute first. He is my student, I know his abilities, he is familiar with the workers, and he is easy to manage." Zhang Fangyin arranged Zhou Weihan very well. Satisfied, in the end it was reciprocated, and I gave some pointers.

After Zhang Fangyin left, Zhou Weihan didn't delay too much. After a brief rest, the New Second Regiment set off immediately and marched in the direction of the 386th Brigade.

The new second regiment was walking, and it seemed that they were almost at the brigade headquarters.

Zhou Weihan began to sigh, one after another.

Dong Jiang on the side asked curiously: "Head, we have all entered the base area, and the little devils have been wiped out by us, so what are you worrying about?"

"Look where we are going?" Zhou Weihan said.

"We've been walking for almost half a day, and I'm almost at the brigade headquarters as I look ahead." Dong Jiang and Zhou Weihan often come to the brigade headquarters, and they are familiar with the surrounding areas.

"I'm only worried when I'm approaching the brigade headquarters. The chief of staff is easy to talk, but the brigade commander is not easy to talk. If I meet the brigade commander, there will be a lot less things seized." Zhou Weihan said.

In fact, what Zhou Weihan was worried about was not the captured weapons and equipment. The existing weapons and equipment in the hands of the New Second Regiment were seized from the puppet army in the past two times, and the better ones were equipped with the reserve battalion. The more than [-] rifles left in their hands They are all old and broken.

This was seen by the brigade commander, but Zhou Weihan didn't feel distressed. The workers and the medical equipment seized from the Heshun Little Devils Hospital were scarce talents and resources. That would be a big loss.

"Head, let's just bypass the brigade headquarters."

"What are you thinking? Waiting for the brigade commander to settle accounts after autumn is not something that can be settled with a little blood." Zhou Weihan whispered.

"Well, you go and tell Jing Dagang, let him take the team away first, and I will go to the brigade by myself." Zhou Weihan said after thinking.

The two were talking here when a soldier from the first battalion in front ran over to report: "Regiment commander, the battalion commander asked me to tell you that the brigade commander and the political commissar are at the front crossing."

Zhou Weihan was dumbfounded for a moment, he had just muttered a few words, why did the brigade commander come here.

I saw the brigade commander and the political commissar standing at the crossing in front, they were looking at the marching ranks of the New Second Regiment, talking with smiles on their faces.

Zhou Weihan quickly took two steps, and greeted him with a smile: "Brigade Commander, Political Commissar, why are you here? I was going to the brigade headquarters to see you two!"

"The brigade commander heard that you are coming, so he has to come out to pick you up." Said the political commissar beside him.

"Zhou Weihan, your situation is really big now. You are almost catching up with me, the brigade commander. The team of the new second regiment is getting bigger and bigger. There must be [-] people here?" The brigade commander smiled. Said.

"Brigade Commander, from what you said, no matter how many people there are in my new second regiment, isn't it still a team of the 386th brigade?" Zhou Weihan hurriedly answered.

"That's not necessarily the case. Brigadier Chen of the 385th Brigade wanted to keep you in Heshun some time ago. You can only come back because the brigade commander disagrees." Political Commissar Wang added.

"When you went out this time, there was a lot of movement, and there were a lot of good things, right?" asked the brigade commander.

"I bought equipment for one battalion, and just expanded a battalion." Zhou Weihan said half-truthfully.

"Look at you, our brigade is just short of a deputy brigade commander, or I would like to give my superiors a suggestion to let you," the brigade commander said with a smile.

"Brigade Commander, don't make fun of me. I'm physically and mentally exhausted as a regiment commander, and my ability is really limited."

"I won't talk nonsense with you. You have to give up some of the skilled workers you found from Taiyuan. The brigade's repair shop also lacks such talents."

"Brigade Commander, since you have spoken, I will definitely order, but I also have a small idea, I hope you and the political commissar can think about it!" Zhou Weihan said honestly.

"The bases of our Eighth Route Army have their own repair shops and even arsenals, but there are basically none at the regiment level. Among the people I brought back this time, there happened to be a talent who had received systematic teaching and had production experience. I wonder if we should hold a training class to let our workers receive special training, and at the same time train a new wave of skilled workers to go out. The requirements should not be too high, and simple firearm repairs will do.” Zhou Weihan said after thinking.

"Well, your idea is very good. Skilled workers have always been a talent that our Eighth Route Army lacks. You can give it a try." The brigade commander nodded and said.

"Brigade Commander, it just so happens that my new Second Regiment has seized a lot of weapons and equipment in the past few battles, and many of them have been repaired. Why not let them practice their skills." Zhou Weihan suggested to the brigade commander while the iron was hot.

"You mean to let them go to your new second regiment? You don't want to make any fools, do you?" The brigade commander glanced at Zhou Weihan and said.

"Brigade Commander, see what you said? You and the political commissar are busy, so let me take care of this trivial matter."

"Leave it to you, yes, for three months, I want you to train a group of people, as you said, to be able to do basic repairs of firearms." The brigade commander said.

The brigade commander left contentedly, and the workers of the brigade's repair shop will come back after the new second regiment is settled down.

"Regimental Commander, Brigadier Commander just left like this? When did the old man walk by empty-handed!" Dong Jiang said in disbelief.

"Dong Jiang, your boy's ideological awareness needs to be improved. What kind of character is the brigade commander who knows as much as us?" Zhou Weihan said with a smile.

It's not that the Eighth Route Army has no military talents, on the contrary, there are quite a few, otherwise it would not have designed the Bayi-style horse rifle.

I ran my own arsenal during the period of the Red Army. At that time, there were many talents who had returned from studying in Germany and the Soviet Union, but some things were hard to describe.

Up to now, what has limited the output of the arsenal has been that the equipment and raw materials cannot keep up.

Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei, Southern Hebei, Shandong and other base areas all have their own small arsenals. Because the brigade commander’s Taiyue Military Region is close to the headquarters, the personnel and equipment are given priority to the arsenal of the headquarters. This also leads to the fact that the brigade has only one repair shop. The reason is that the subordinate regiments do not have their own skilled workers.

Of course, being close to the water is the first thing to do, close to the headquarters arsenal, and the logistical support is more timely than other troops.

Zhang Fangyin can teach Huang Liang such a good apprentice, Zhou Weihan is going to let Huang Liang lead his apprentice when the time comes.

Chenjiayu.

After the brigade headquarters agreed, Zhou Weihan set up the regiment headquarters of the new second regiment in Chenjiayu, which was also considered.

Chenjiayu's geographical location is not too far from the 386 Brigade and other regiments, so it is convenient for communication, and of course, it is also convenient for doing business.
