Chapter 275 The Central Army is coming to the northwest of Shanxi(1/2)
Chu Yunfei actually saw it, raised his head and asked, "Brother Ligong, do you have something to say to me?"
"Oh, it's nothing. I just think you've been too busy these days, so you have to be careful." Fang Ligong casually changed the words.
Just now, he actually wanted to say that Qian Bojun had a problem.
Qian Bojun not only deducted half of the Li family's food, but also greedy for tens of thousands of stolen money.
But thinking that Qian Bojun followed Chu Yunfei for many years and was injured in order to save Chu Yunfei during the Central Plains War. The two had a life-long friendship, and he was just a chief of staff who had been airborne for a while. As the saying goes, he would not be able to get along well. Otherwise, the 358th Regiment of the Jinsui Army might not have his foothold.
Chu Yunfei sighed and said, "It's not okay if you don't work hard."
"This acre of three-part land in northwest Shanxi was originally quite calm."
"But now that I come to the 386th Brigade, the situation is very different."
"No accident, the Japanese army will definitely station heavy troops in Anhua in the future."
"The defense zone of our 358th Regiment is too close to Anhua, and it can be said to be on the side of the bed. It is very likely to become the priority target of the Japanese army, so we have to formulate several emergency plans as soon as possible."
"So you won't be caught off guard by the Japanese at that time."
Fang Ligong said: "Just leave this matter to me and the General Staff."
Chu Yunfei said, "I am certainly relieved to have your brother Li Gong personally presided over it, but am I idle? I just followed your General Staff to do this."
While he was talking, an intelligence officer came in.
"Report." said the intelligence consultant, "The Taiyuan insider just sent a top-secret message."
"Taiyuan?" Chu Yunfei immediately put down the pencil in his hand and asked, "What news?"
Intelligence Staff said: "The approximate casualties and losses of the 1st Japanese Army stationed in Shanxi and the losses of weapons and equipment in this sweep operation have been obtained."
"I'll investigate it so quickly?"
Chu Yunfei said in surprise: "Brother Li Gong, since you came to the 358th Regiment, the efficiency of the intelligence department has improved a lot, and it is much better than before."
"It's actually good luck."
Fang Ligong smiled self-deprecatingly and said, "In fact, the Intelligence Department did not do much. It was just that an operational staff member of the General Staff of the 1st Army stationed in Shanxi took the initiative to come to us and was willing to sell the confidential information he knew to us at a high price, so we could know the confidential information of the Japanese army so quickly."
"Ah?" Chu Yunfei said in surprise, "The information you bought?"
"Yes, I bought the information." Fang Ligong nodded and said, "But there is no problem in itself, because it is internationally practiced by the intelligence department to buy intelligence from the enemy camp at a high price."
"The only problem is that we can't handle the funds."
"Just these few pieces of intelligence will spend the year's funds on the Intelligence Department."
"If we want to get more information, we have to add more funds."
Chu Yunfei said: "How much is the annual funding of the Intelligence Department? 20,000 French currency or 30,000?"
"The group post is the old emperor's experience last year." Fang Ligong smiled and said, "The legal currency has depreciated seriously since this year, so the funds of the intelligence department have also increased to more than 100,000 yuan a year."
"More than 100,000?" Chu Yunfei said in a daze.
"A few pieces of information cost us more than 100,000 fiat currency?"
Who the hell can withstand this? The 358 Group's annual funding is only more than 500,000 yuan.
If I buy a few more pieces of information, my group of people would have to drink the northwest wind? At this moment, Chu Yunfei deeply felt the serious consequences of inflation.
...
Chongqing Huangshan official residence, Yunxiu Tower.
"Principal, we have investigated it."
Dai Yunong bent slightly and said respectfully.
"Is that true?" Principal Chang said with anticipation, "How many casualties have the Japanese army been killed or killed?"
Dai Yunong said in a deep voice: "According to investigation, the Japanese army in Shanxi were shot dead by the 386th Brigade of the Eighth Route Army in this combat operation, and another 4,000 were injured."
"What?" Chang Kaishen said dumbfoundedly.
"Nearly eight thousand Japanese troops were killed, and four thousand were injured?"
"Yes." Dai Yunong said, "The 2nd Guards Division was almost crippled!"
"My mother." Chang Kaishen couldn't help but curse, "It's no wonder. As the battle was like this, Maeda Tadashi, as the commander of the 2nd Division of the Guards, should definitely apologize."
"If it were a general of the party and the country, I wouldn't be able to spare him."
After saying this, he sighed again: "I really can't believe it."
"How was this battle fought? A division made the Eighth Route Army and a brigade beat this egg?"
At this moment, Chang Kaishen felt so depressed. Why did the Japanese act like a tiger going down the mountain when fighting with the National Army? Half of the Sakagaki Division in Xinkou dared to suppress the Central Army, and more than 30 divisions of the Jinsui Army attacked fiercely. However, in this battle of Shuiyaoshan, a Japanese Guard Division was beaten into this shape by a brigade in the Eighth Route Army.
The same opponents are both Japanese troops, so the difference is so big when facing the National Army and the Eighth Route Army?
Is it because the Eighth Route Army is too strong or the National Army is too weak? But even if there is a gap in combat effectiveness between the National Army and the Eighth Route Army, it is not so large, right?
But fortunately, there is only one 386 Brigade, and there is no other one.
After a while, Chang Kaishen said, "Yunnong, has this 386th Brigade already flown to northwest Shanxi?"
"Yes." Dai Yunong nodded, and understood what Chang Kaishen was worried about in seconds. He was nothing more than worrying that the 386 brigade would become a big hit after traversing to northwest Shanxi and becoming a major concern for the party and the country. He said now, "Principal, northwest Shanxi is dry and barren, and the local people can't even support themselves, so they can't support too many troops at all."
"The 386th Brigade of the Eighth Route Army flew to northwest Shanxi, which can be said to be a death sentence."
"What's more, the Japanese army in Shanxi suffered such a big loss, and it is impossible for them to sit idly by and will continue to encircle and suppress it."
"So if nothing unexpected happens, the remaining one or two thousand remaining troops of the 386th Brigade of the Eighth Route Army may not last for a few days, and they should be wiped out by the Japanese army in Shanxi soon."
"Otherwise, the Japanese army might not be able to do anything to the 386th Brigade."
Chang Kaishen waved his hand and said, "The 386th Brigade is Chen Gen's army."
Chang Kaishen was really afraid of Chen Gen, who saved his life during the Eastern Expedition to Huizhou, because he knew that this man was not only a general, but also a powerful general who could lead troops.
Dai Yunong asked in a low voice: "Principal, do you mean to cooperate with the Japanese?"
"What are you talking about?" Chang Kaishen glanced at Dai Yunong and said, "Then I'm also Wang Jingwei? It's impossible to cooperate with the Japanese, and it's never possible."
After saying this, he said: "But it is okay to send a unit to northwest Shanxi to fight a tacit battle with the Japanese army in Shanxi. The 386th Brigade of the Eighth Route Army is too powerful. If you sit idly by and watch them grow again, it will inevitably become a major concern in the battlefield in Shanxi and even the whole country. So it is better to try to solve it as soon as possible."
Dai Yunong said: "Principal, you forgot that there is already an army in the northwest of Shanxi?"
"I haven't forgotten." Chang Kaishen said with his waist, "You are talking about Chu Yunfei's 358th Regiment of the Jinsui Army, right? This is a model unit built by Yan Xishan at a high price. It is just a regiment in name, but it is actually a brigade. This old guy thought I didn't know, but in fact I saw his tricks very clearly."
"That's, that's it." Dai Yunnong took the opportunity to flatter, "The principal saw Wanli clearly, with golden eyes. Whether it was political or military strategy, Yan Xishan could not catch up with the principal. Just say that Chu Yunfei's 358th Regiment was built at a high price, but in the end he became the principal's bag?"
Chang Kaishen smiled and said, "But Chu Yunfei is a bit too upright. When the 94th Division had a dispute with the Eighth Route Army last time, the commander of the Second World War Zone ordered him to support the 94th Division from the flanks, but he just refused to listen, which eventually led to the tragedy of the 94th Division being defeated by the Eighth Route Army, which was really annoying."
Dai Yunong thought to himself that the principal should still value Chu Yunfei.
Dai Yunong said at the moment: "I'm afraid that young people with abilities will not be too obedient."
"That's the reason." Chang Kaishen said, "So I hope Chu Yunfei will fight a tacit battle with the Japanese army in Shanxi, and I'm afraid I can't count on a fatal blow to the 386th Brigade of the Eighth Route Army at a critical moment."
He paused and said, "I have to choose another person."
Dai Yunong said, "Principal, then the student will leave first."
When it comes to personnel affairs, Dai Yunong thinks it is better to avoid suspicion.
"Okay, then you can go ahead and get busy." Chang Kaishen sent Dai Yunong away and called Chen Bulei, the second director of the service, over.
"Yanji." Chang Kaishen thought for a while and said, "Please help me check if Liang Gang, the spy battalion commander of the Central Military Academy's Teaching Corps, is also in the fifth phase of Huangpu? He is the same as Chu Yunfei?"
Chen Bulei nodded and said, "Liang Gang and Chu Yunfei are not only at the same time but also at the same class. The relationship between them is very good."
"Is that so? The two are not only classmates, but also have a good relationship?" Chang Kaishen pondered for a moment and then said, "Where is Liang Gang now?"
Chen Bulei said: "Working in Hengyang Military Service Office."
"What? Liang Gang was sent to the Military Service Office?" Chang Kaishen said furiously, "A such a powerful general actually asked him to go to the Military Service Office to be responsible for the arrest of the strong men? Isn't this a waste of good materials? Who came up with the idea?"
Chen Bule was silent. He didn't dare to interfere in this matter because Liang Gang offended Principal Chang's confidant general and was sent to Hengyang Military Service Office to sit on the bench.
Chang Kaishen also seemed to realize that there was something hidden in it.
Then he said, "Forget it, I won't mention the past. In this way, you can call Hengyang immediately and ask Liang Gang to come to Chongqing Huangshan official residence immediately. I want to see him."
"Okay." Chen Bulei agreed and turned around and wanted to leave.
"Yanji, you wait a moment." Chang Kaishen said again.
"Is the 46th Division fighting guerrillas in the Taihang Mountains now?"
"Yes." Chen Bulei said, "Now we are fighting guerrillas in the Licheng area."
Chang Kaishen pondered for a moment and said, "In this way, you should say hello to the Ministry of Military Affairs immediately and say it was my intention. He would re-draw the officers of the Central Military Academy Teaching Corps, which were originally added to the 46th Division, and then combine the officers of the Central Military Academy Teaching Corps and the remnants of the 94th Division into the Independent 94th Brigade."
"Okay." Chen Bulei ordered to leave.

On the playground, two strong men were running naked in shorts. The two men were covered with cross-section scars, which looked scary.
