Chapter 1228 A big game of chess

He Wenxi said: "But if we don't send a group, it's unreasonable?"

After saying this, He Wenxi said again: "And only sending one group here will not have much impact."

Zhong Yi said: "It is really not a big impact to send only one regiment, but the problem is that if the Japanese increase their troops, a regiment will still not be able to defend the Xikou? Should you continue to increase troops or sit idly by?"

After saying this, Zhong Yi continued: "If there are troops to increase, then in the end, the entire nine regiments of the Coast Defense Corps will be transferred to Xikou by Usa Mirō, but if there is no troops to increase, you will still have to sit still. Since you will inevitably have to sit still and ignore them in the end, it would be better to just stop sending a regiment!"

He Wenxi was speechless because what Zhong Yi said was reasonable.

However, although the truth is this, things cannot be done.

No matter what, Xikou Town is the hometown of Principal Chang, so his political attitude is still needed.

He Wenxi said at the moment: "I think I should send a group to you."

"I said I don't need it, then I don't need it." Zhong Yi shook his head, "I will explain to the principal."

He Wenxi thought for a while and said, "The person who cares about this matter most is not Principal Chang, but Master Chang!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a communications officer hurried in and reported to Zhong Yi: "Associate, the first team of the Special Operations Brigade sent an urgent telegram from the Xikou."

Zhong Yi shouted, "Remember."

"Yes!" The communications staff agreed and launched a telegram and said, "Zhejiang-Fujian Battle Staff: Our troops encountered a small team of Japanese devils in Xikou Town. Now they have been wiped out. Many houses in Xikou Town have been burned down, and Yutai Salt Shop has also been burned down. Many people have been killed and injured. Fortunately, Mrs. Yuan Pei of Principal Chang is safe."

He Wenxi couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Zhong Yi waved his hand and stepped back from the communications soldier.

He Wenxi said: "It's a blessing to join the seat. The Japanese only have one infantry team."

"Director He, you are too happy too early." Zhong Yi shook his head and said, "If an infantry team fails, Usa Mirō will send more Japanese to Xikou. He will not give up until the goal is achieved."

He Wenxi felt nervous and said anxiously: "What should we do?"

Zhong Yi pondered for a moment and said, "You immediately plan a secret telegram to Chongqing."

...

On Mount Emei, Baoguo Temple and Ningcui Building.

Principal Chang just came back from a walk with Mrs. Chang.

At this time, Chongqing was as hot as a stove, but it was still cool on Mount Emei. Principal Chang accompanied his wife on the boulevard for nearly half an hour, but he was still sweating slightly.

As a result, as soon as I returned to Ningcui Tower, I saw Lin Wei standing at the door with a calm expression.

"Principal, madam." Lin Wei bowed slightly to Principal Chang's wife and said, "What's wrong."

Principal Chang immediately paused in his heart, and from Lin Wei's expression, he realized that it should be his private matter.

At that moment, Principal Chang asked in a deep voice: "Weiran, is something wrong in Jiangxi?"

President Chang said that Nicholas Chang, the eldest son who was serving as an inspector in Jiangxi at this time, was working as a commissioner in the United States.

Although Principal Chang is usually very strict with Nicholas, he actually attaches great importance to it in his heart. Principal Chang completely follows the highest standards and treats this eldest son as a successor.

"Jiangxi?" Lin Wei was stunned when he heard this. After reacting, he quickly shook his head and said, "Uh, no, not Jiangxi."

"Isn't it Jiangxi?" Principal Chang immediately breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this. As long as it wasn't his eldest son's accident, other private matters would be trivial matters. Principal Chang asked again, "So that's the case with Xikou?"

Hearing this, Mrs. Chang next to her immediately pricked her ears, and she was more concerned about the matter at the Xikou.

"Yes." Lin Wei glanced at Mrs. Chang from the corner of his eyes, and said, "About an infantry squad of Japanese soldiers had just flown to the mouth of the stream. Although they were finally destroyed by the troops who arrived after hearing the news, hundreds of people in the town were still dead, and nearly a hundred houses were burned down, and..."

"And what?" said Principal Chang, "Don't hesitate,"

"Yes." Lin Wei bowed deeply again and said, "Yutai Salt Shop is burned."

Although Yutai Salt Shop had long been distributed to Principal Chang's elder brother, it was the Chang's family's property.

"Where is the old house?" Mrs. Chang glanced at Principal Chang and continued, "Where is that one?"

Lin Wei replied: "The old house was not burned because the Japanese burned from west to east. Before they could burn the old house, they were wiped out by the troops who arrived. Mrs. Mao was also safe."

After saying this, Lin Wei continued: "However, Bei Zhi is very worried that the Japanese will also rush to Xikou."

"Well, Weiran's worries are not unreasonable." Mrs. Chang said in her own opinion, "Let's do this, send a telegram to Yinjiang immediately and ask Zhong Ziren to send a division to defend Xikou."

Although it was not his own opinion, President Chang also felt that it was okay to do so.

No matter what, Xikou is his hometown, so it is necessary to send a division to protect him.

However, after hearing this, Lin Wei did not say anything, but just stood still.

Mrs. Chang said angrily: "Director Lin, do you think I have no weight in speaking, right?"

"Well, Bei Zhi absolutely has no such intention. Madam misunderstood." Lin Wei quickly explained, "but, Zhong Ziren has sent a telegram."

Mrs. Chang said: "Why don't he plan to send troops to Xikou?"

Lin Wei smiled bitterly, took out a telegram from his pocket and handed it to Mrs. Chang.

Mrs. Chang hurriedly read the telegram and said angrily: "This Zhong Ziren is really overwhelming. He even refused to transfer a regiment to protect the Xikou!"

Hearing this, Principal Chang's face suddenly collapsed, and he received the telegram from Mrs. Chang.

After reading the telegram, Principal Chang's face became more and more embarrassing, and he went back to the study without saying a word.

Lin Wei followed Principal Chang into the study tremblingly, but Mrs. Chang did not come with her, but went back to her own room to take a shower and change clothes.

After entering the study, Principal Chang lay on the rocking chair and said, "Weiran, what do you think about this?"

Lin Wei took out another seal of electricity from his pocket and said, "Principal, Zi Ren has another seal of electricity."

Principal Chang was stunned when he heard this. There was a sealed telegram? At that moment, Principal Chang reached out and took the sealed telegram.

After reading this secret telegram, Principal Chang's face finally looked a little better and he snorted: "I didn't expect that Zhong Yi was actually playing a big game of chess."

Lin Wei said: "Principal, Ziren used Xikou as a bargaining chip, which is indeed very excessive, but if it rises to the overall situation of the national war of resistance, I think it is understandable."

"Don't worry, I can understand." Principal Chang said, "You call him back immediately and let him open it. I and the commander will cooperate with you!"

Lin Wei said again: "The principal, the eldest son?"
