Anti-Japanese War: From Becoming Chu Yunfei to Rising

Chapter 129 Reaching a consensus with Brigade Commander Chen, Yan Laoxi: Chu Yunfei's move is another vicious plan! (Subscribe)
"Brigade Commander Chen~!"

Chu Yunfei came out and the two of them saluted each other.

"Please~!"

"please!"

Brigade Commander Chen was smiling.

Chu Yunfei then greeted the two people behind him: "Brother Zhicheng, Brother Yunlong, nice to see you again!"

"Commander Chu, please!"

In front of Brigade Commander Chen.

Li Yunlong no longer had that arrogance.

Although he was born into a peasant family, he still had some basic manners.

Fang Ligong followed behind Chu Yunfei.

They looked at each other and walked into the reception room.

The five of them exchanged simple greetings and some flattery.

Sun Ming and his men served tea to everyone present and slowly retreated.

Turn around and leave.

And closed the door.

Zhong Zhicheng smiled and said loudly: "Commander Chu, what do you mean by joint operations this time?"

Chu Yunfei sighed.

Fang Ligong said, "Captain Chen, Captain Li, Captain Zhong, according to the latest intelligence."

"The Japanese army is currently strong and has already captured Taiyuan. They are sweeping along the Nantongpu Railway all the way to Yicheng and Quwo."

"In the entire Shanxi region, judging from the current war situation, to be honest, we all know that it is not optimistic."

"As far as Shanxi is concerned, although part of the Japanese Fifth Division, the main force, has already withdrawn, there are still at least 40,000 Japanese troops in Shanxi, which is a very large force."

"To our east, in the Hebei region of the First War Zone, the main forces of the Nationalist Army have been defeated by the Japanese Army, and most of the North China Plain has fallen into enemy hands.

The Changzhi area where we are located is facing the threat of Japanese troops coming from the direction of Handan."

Fang Ligong paused.

Chu Yunfei said in a tacit understanding: "So, I have requested the Second War Zone Commander Headquarters to set up a position of the Joint Operations Commander-in-Chief of Southeast Shanxi. This is to deal with the battle that may break out next."

"Commander Chen, you and I both know that the disaster of the three armies comes from suspicion, and the greatest harm to the use of troops is hesitation."

"To be frank, the fact that our Second War Zone was able to achieve such a brilliant victory with so many miscellaneous troops at the Niangzi Pass battlefield was all thanks to the unified dispatch and command of Commander Yan and Commander Huang, and the sacrifice of all the officers and soldiers."

"But now, Taiyuan has been lost. So far, the entire southeastern Shanxi region is in disarray, with everyone fighting on their own without any coordination."

"There are gaps in our army's firepower, personnel quality, and even tactics. If we cannot work together and stand in the same trench to fight the war... Chu is pessimistic about the situation of the anti-Japanese war in Shanxi."

Brigadier General Chen looked serious and nodded: "We in the Eighth Route Army also have this idea."

"In southeastern Shanxi, the problem of unified command and dispatch of troops really needs to be solved."

"If they fight each other, they will be easily defeated one by one by the Japanese army, which will also be disadvantageous to General Yan's great cause of resisting the enemy and protecting Shanxi."

Fang Ligong continued, "Regardless of qualifications, position or rank, there is only one person who is most suitable for this position."

Having said that.

Brigade Commander Chen already had an idea in mind.

No wonder they called him over.

It turns out that this was what Chu Yunfei and Fang Ligong had in mind.

Yes, in terms of seniority, military rank, and position.

In the entire southeastern Shanxi region, one person is the most suitable.

That was the commander-in-chief of the 18th Group Army and deputy commander-in-chief of the Second War Zone.

The commander-in-chief of the Eighth Route Army with the rank of lieutenant general and general.

But..why did they do that?

The Eighth Route Army is also striving for such things.

But Yan Laoxi won't give in so easily.

But, if Chu Yunfei proposed it...
That's different.

Chu Yunfei retreated to the southeastern part of Shanxi. Did he come here with a mission?
I think it will become clear soon.

"Regarding the question of how to establish a joint operations command, I think there is really no need to rush at this stage... After all, no one knows whether the troops currently under the Second War Zone Commander's Headquarters will be transferred to other places."

"This is true too."

Chu Yunfei signaled Fang Ligong with his eyes.

Fang Ligong turned and left.

A moment later, a document was brought.

This is exactly the result of Sun Weimou's investigation.

And this time, the supply documents for the ammunition depot and armory.

Brigade Commander Chen took a few glances and frowned slightly.

Zhong Zhicheng and Li Yunlong looked at each other with curiosity.

What the hell is this? It's so mysterious.

After reading it, Brigade Commander Chen turned his head and looked at the two people: "Curious?"

Seeing Chu Yunfei nod slightly, Brigade Commander Chen immediately handed it over: "Yunfei, what are your plans now?"

He thought...Chu Yunfei would never show him these things for no reason.

Family scandals should not be made public.

There must be other purposes for taking the initiative to do this.

Chu Yunfei's purpose was indeed not simple. He said, "In the southeast of Shanxi, just in Shangdang, the people's sentiments are complicated and changeable... There are many landlords and gentry who control the local economy. Moreover, these people have connections with the Second War Zone and even the mountain city."

"Commander Chen, as far as I know, the country's strategic materials and military reserves have almost been consumed."

"Everyone here knows that a reduction in fiscal revenue is inevitable, and when that happens, there will naturally be problems with military spending."

Having said that.

Brigade Commander Chen has understood.

Chu Yunfei is planning to cooperate with them.

Land reform will be carried out in the above-mentioned areas.

Smash the local power class and get rid of these local tyrants and gentry.

If this is the case, this person Chu Yunfei.

More dangerous than he had imagined.

Chu Yunfei is a proud man.

It's impossible to play tricks on this matter.

Nor will I deceive them.

And very sincere.

Just the initial price offered was enough to make Brigade Commander Chen excited.

Chu Yunfei was a member of the Shanxi Suiyuan Army.

Can help the Eighth Route Army obtain the position of commander-in-chief of the Eastern Route Army.

Brigade Commander Chen is not a "brainless" person like Li Yunlong, who doesn't care about politics and only thinks about how to kill the Japanese.

In terms of average ability.

Brigade Commander Chen is also a well-deserved hexagonal warrior, and his charm is maxed out.

He knew clearly that the influence of this position was immeasurable.

Because of the special attributes of the Eighth Route Army.

Every battle of the Eighth Route Army.

They have attracted the attention of people all over the country.

If the southeastern Shanxi region can win the battle under the command of the commander-in-chief.

Naturally, there are more gains to be gained from this.

Li Yunlong and Zhong Zhicheng were whispering to each other.

Chu Yunfei's hearing is not very good.

But Fang Ligong heard it clearly.

In less than four sentences, words like "deserve to die", "deserve to be killed", and "just trial" appeared three times.

No wonder Aluminum Base was determined to cooperate with the Eighth Route Army
If it were Chu Yunfei who did this kind of thing.

That would be a mess.

Currently cooperating with the Eighth Route Army in southeastern Shanxi.

It is also the general trend and the situation.

At most, there is some dust on his body.

But these days.

Who can be spotless?

The 17th Division of Zhao Shoushan that fought a bloody battle in Xuehua Mountain had a lot of Red Party members under its command!
If it is just official cooperation.

I believe that neither the Chairman nor Commander Yan can find any fault with it.

Chu Yunfei is the rising star of the Jin army...an elite.

He is the leader and vanguard of the younger generation.

He can be covered in dust, but his hands must never be stained with the blood of his colleagues.

Aluminum seat!

This move is really too advanced!
In Fang Ligong's opinion.

Chu Yunfei not only pushed the Eighth Route Army to the position of the main force.

It also solves the problem of self-raising funds for subsequent military expenses.

The entire Changzhi, Jincheng, Yangcheng, Qinshui and other places...are relatively prosperous in North China.

If the plan works.

Not to mention providing for one's own troops.

Just continue to expand.

I think it's not a big problem. You are worthy of being Commander Chu. We have made great achievements and deserve the reputation of being resourceful!

Brigade Commander Chen suddenly said, "Yun Fei, I need to consult my superiors on this matter."

"Ok!"

Chu Yunfei smiled and nodded: "I have prepared wine and food. Brother Chen, please~!"

"please!"

Although Brigade Commander Chen did not agree.

But Chu Yunfei's telegram had already been placed on the table of the Second War Zone Commander's headquarters.

Regarding the matter of the commander-in-chief of the Eastern Route Army.

Old Xi Yan gathered five or six of his trusted men together.

Yang Aiyuan, Sun Cuiya, Chu Xichun, Zhu Shouguang, Wang Jingguo and Chen Changjie.

Regarding the unified command of the Eastern Army.

Different opinions were expressed.

in short.

Yang and Sun thought they could give it a try. After all, the threat of the Japanese army was imminent. If southeastern Shanxi was lost.

In the whole of Shanxi, there are only some mountainous areas left.

The next place the Japanese will attack is most likely southwestern Shanxi.

Then their Shanxi-Suiyuan Army can only retreat to Shaanxi
That's not much different from a stray dog.

All the generals of the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army found it difficult to accept such an outcome.

Chu Xichun supported Chu Yunfei's idea.

Consider it from a military perspective.

He believed that doing so would at least allow the chaotic southeastern Shanxi region to have a unified command.

On the battlefield, if even the command is not smooth.

This battle cannot be fought.

Even if the final result is that it is very likely that we will not be able to defend southeastern Shanxi.

But it should also be able to achieve the strategic goal of depleting the Japanese army's manpower and buying more time.

Regarding the troops, equipment and number of people Chu Yunfei currently possesses.

Chu Xichun believes that Chu Yunfei is not just a fighter.

He is also good at preserving his strength.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have so many troops under his command.

Zhu Shouguang, Wang Jingguo and Chen Changjie were inclined to cooperate with the Central Army and ignore the Eighth Route Army.

That's a bit bullshit.

Tang Enbo is a corps commander
The qualifications, position and military rank are not enough.

He became the commander of the Eastern Route Army, and the Eighth Route Army was in trouble.

The other miscellaneous troops will probably be in trouble too.

Tang Enbo always remembered the revenge of Nankou!
It is inevitable that he will find an opportunity to retaliate.

Yan Laoxi was worried that Chu Yunfei's troops would be used by him to fill the line.

No matter what the people present discuss.

final result.

Naturally, Yan Laoxi’s ideas are still the main ones.

These people expressed their deep concern that the Eighth Route Army would gain a foothold in southeastern Shanxi.

This statement is naturally considered from the perspective of Yan Laoxi.

For Yan Laoxi.

This is indeed not a good thing.

If you say so, it will indeed please Mr. Yan.

But now, there was a gleam of wisdom in Yan Laoxi's eyes.

He thought that he was no longer the same person as before.

He now
Seeing further and deeper than anyone else present.

No one knows Chu Yunfei better than him.

His trusted generals saw the first and second floors.

It seems that Zhu Shouguang doesn't want to get involved, otherwise he wouldn't just go with the crowd.

Chu Xichun, his trusted think tank, saw the third level.

As for him, Old Man Yan.

Then I saw something deeper, the fourth layer.

That is the "last layer"!
Yan Laoxi believed that the intention of this telegram was actually very clear.

On the surface, it was for military considerations, to resist the enemy and protect the great cause of Jin.

In order to eliminate the Japanese devils.

No matter from which angle you consider it, the southeastern Shanxi region needs a commander-in-chief!
But who in the entire southeastern Shanxi region has this qualification?
After searching for a long time, I found that there was actually only one person.

That was the commander-in-chief of the Eighth Route Army and deputy commander-in-chief of the war zone.

Once appointed as the commander-in-chief of the Eastern Army.

The Eighth Route Army was equivalent to standing directly in front of the stage, attracting the attention and firepower of the Japanese army.

This move was Chu Yunfei's vicious plan.

Just like the previous Yangquan siege battle.

Feng Jingye was afraid of fighting and avoided it to preserve his strength.

Chu Yunfei deliberately leaked the "real intelligence", forcing the Japanese army to launch a targeted attack on Feng Jingye's troops.

Even if it's for your own sake.

Feng Jingye had no choice but to fight to the death.

Otherwise, he would not be able to explain to Yan Laoxi and Chiang Kai-shek.

And this time, Chu Yunfei used the same old trick again.

Yan Laoxi believes.

Chu Yunfei's move was a means of forcing them to go to the front line of the battlefield.

As the commander-in-chief.

You can't command other people's troops to fight to the death in the front.

Are you still fighting guerrilla warfare behind enemy lines and picking on the weak?

Yan Laoxi believed that it was entirely possible to do so under the guise of coordinated operations and command.

In essence, they are doing things that follow orders but not announcements.

Just sit back and watch the Eighth Route Army, other National Army units and the Japanese army fight to the death!

Preserve the strength of the Jin army.

This was demonstrated in the previous Pingxingguan Battle.

That's what Yan Laoxi did.

not to mention.

a month ago.

Chu Yunfei is still cooperating with the Eighth Route Army to fight the enemy.

We already have a good cooperative relationship.

After this retreat to southeastern Shanxi.

The Japanese army has entered Handan and threatened Changzhi in the hinterland of southeastern Shanxi.

Raising such a thing at this critical juncture.

The Eighth Route Army was naturally not very vigilant.

I don't know.

This is where Chu Yunfei’s brilliance lies.

Gaining the appreciation of Mr. Yan is only the first step.

After more than three years of traveling through time, Chu Yunfei has formed a fixed impression in Yan Laoxi's mind.

First of all: loyalty! Honesty!
Secondly, he must be good at fighting and resourceful.

There are indeed no famous representatives among the younger generation of the Jin army.

Otherwise, Yan Laoxi would not always think about training Chu Yunfei instead of training others.
Whether it is the Eighth Route Army or the mountain city.

No one could find fault with him.

And its hidden meaning.

Only Yan Laoxi can see it clearly.

At this moment, Yan Laoxi couldn't help feeling a lot of emotion in his heart.

Chu Yunfei, Chu Yunfei.

This brain is really useful!

But this brat is still a little naive in front of me.

Thinking of this, Yan Laoxi couldn't help but smile slightly.
This is a short-term cooperation.

Because the protagonist needs a large number of troops to defend the base of southeastern Shanxi.

So he needed to take advantage of the situation, borrow the Eighth Route Army, borrow Yan Laoxi, and borrow Chiang Kai-shek.

And the conscription work is carried out on the same track by both sides.

It’s not turning red.

In addition, during this period, there was cooperation at the official level.

In the entire Shanxi region, Yan Laoxi not only handed over the command of the new army to the Eighth Route Army.

Three-quarters of the members of the Sacrifice Alliance were from the Red Party, and he was also the president.
