Anti-Japanese War: From Becoming Chu Yunfei to Rising

Chapter 23 The person who came to pick up Li Yunlong arrived.

"When the enemy is strong and we are weak, our main combat goal should be to kill the enemy's manpower and consume the enemy's war resources."

"Judging from the results of the initial battles at Ruyuekou, our 358th Regiment and 203rd Brigade have certainly done a great job in their pre-war deployments, buying time for friendly forces to deploy and provide support."

Wu Ziqiang was somewhat indignant: "So many of our brothers died defending the position, which gave them the opportunity to encircle and annihilate the Japanese, but these colleagues just lost the best opportunity. Are they all idiots?"

Chu Yunfei gave Wu Ziqiang a look and he shut his mouth.

"Whether the 34th Army's poor performance is a sign of ineffectiveness will be determined by the superiors. This is not something you and I can worry about!"

Chu Yunfei paused, then advised earnestly: "What to say and what not to say, you have to have a scale in your heart."

Wu Ziqiang sighed: "Yes, Commander, I understand."

"Your Second Battalion performed very well this time. The Chairman and Commander Yan are very satisfied."

"I heard the telegram said you were going to get a five-hundred-dollar reward?"

When talking about this, Wu Ziqiang forced a smile and said, "That's true."

The Jinsui Army had factories and mines.

Plus the central tax revenue withheld by Yan Laoxi.

The military pay standard is actually very high.

The fiscal revenue of Shanxi Province alone is around 22 million.

After deducting all the miscellaneous expenses, less than half of the money can actually be spent on military expenditure.

Many troops actually received only a quarter of the standard salary.

This is still a rare case of deduction.

The situation of the 358th Regiment is different. After all, the regiment commander Chu Yunfei is a troublemaker.

Soldiers earn seven dollars a month, but here at Chu Yunfei's place it's five dollars.

Chu Yunfei distributed all of it to every soldier without missing a cent.

The remaining two dollars.

Chu Yunfei was asked to use it to smooth out relations with fellow villagers.

This is the only way to ensure that the five dollars will be delivered to the 358th Regiment on a monthly basis.

For example, the second battalion commander, Wu Ziqiang, has the rank of major and holds the position of battalion commander.

He received a first-class salary of 140 yuan a month.

Chu Yunfei also received the salary of a colonel, which was 260 yuan a month.

The purchasing power of two hundred and sixty yuan is actually very considerable.

Chu Yunfei simply couldn't spend all the money for daily expenses.

So, my brothers, if anyone has any problems,

He will always help out a bit.

By the way, let Sun Ming buy some anti-inflammatory drugs or something like that from the black market.

But once it comes to medicine.

That's basically a sky-high price.

Two hundred dollars is basically just a waste of money and won't make any waves.

As a second choice, I bought a lot of Chinese medicinal herbs.

But let's take a step back.

If we compare it with the Eighth Route Army at that time, the 358th Regiment of the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army was a veritable local tyrant force.

The company commander of the Eighth Route Army only earned five yuan a month.

This is still the case with numbers.

In the original drama, Li Yunlong once complained that he was born by his biological mother in the Central Army and raised by his stepmother in the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army.

The New 1st Regiment, a regiment that didn't even have a serial number, was actually just as Li Yunlong said, a pauper.

Even the money for food has to be raised by oneself.
The conditions were difficult to a certain extent.

This is also the reason why Chu Yunfei ordered the kitchen team to let these soldiers have hot meals.

Chu Yunfei sat next to Wu Ziqiang and said, "I know you have three children in your hometown, and they are at school age now, so it will cost a lot of money.

In this way, I will personally reward you another thousand dollars, and you can send someone to send your family to the rear to receive the best education."

Wu Ziqiang pushed it forward: "Commander... the money awarded by the chairman is enough for us."

Chu Yunfei didn't even give him a chance to refuse: "You paid a lot of your salary to the soldiers below.

Just accept the reward I give you.

In addition, since we are stationed in Xing County and there will be no war in the short term, send a few people to pick up your family and send them to the rear, so that you can feel more at ease. "

Wu Ziqiang was surprised, but his heart warmed: "Commander, this is inappropriate."

Chu Yunfei patted his shoulder and said, "What's wrong? Taiyuan City is not safe either. It's better to send him to places like Chongqing or Hengyang. It's a little far, but it's safe."

"Of course, if you want to have a chance to see it, you can send it to Xi'an, but Xi'an is at risk of being bombed by the Japanese army."

"Do it now."

Wu Ziqiang couldn't hold back and hurriedly stood up to thank him: "Thank you, Commander. I'll go then?" Chu Yunfei laughed and waved his hand: "Go!"

After Wu Ziqiang left,.

Chu Yunfei looked at the battle sand table.

He took a step forward and half squatted.

The military flag of Ru Yuekou was replaced with white, which represented the Japanese devils.

"Group seats..."

Chu Yunfei waved his hand nonchalantly: "You don't think the Second Battalion Commander really performed a sand table simulation, do you?"

Sun Ming looked at the terrain on the sand table and shook his head: "Probably not."

If you are really thinking about the battle situation.

How could they allow such obvious mistakes on the sand table?
Wu Ziqiang had something on his mind.

"Apart from his family, he has nothing to worry about now."

Chu Yunfei smiled and added, "I think after he has dealt with this matter, he will no longer have any concerns. You may be able to see a new Wu Ziqiang."

Sun Ming looked suspicious.

But he didn't question it.

Wu Ziqiang's qualifications and military rank are listed here.

Even if he is really a waste, it is not his turn to speak.

What's more, this person is Chu Yunfei's direct descendant, and the two of them are brothers in private and have a good relationship.

Even a small 358th Regiment.

In fact, there are quite a few tricks involved.

First Battalion Commander Qian Bojun, a loyalist among loyalists, has been following Chu Yunfei for more than ten years.

He has rich practical experience and graduated from a military academy.

He is currently the backbone of the 358th Regiment.

Liang Guoping, the battalion commander of the mountain artillery battalion, graduated from the Japanese Army Academy.

He became the battalion commander of the mountain artillery battalion because of Chu Yunfei's recommendation.

This sponsorship is essentially a guarantee.

If anything happens to Liang Guoping, Chu Yunfei will also be held jointly responsible.

The two of them are like being bound together, in a relationship where they prosper together and suffer together.

The second battalion commander, Wu Ziqiang, is also one of Chu Yunfei's direct subordinates.

The fourth battalion commander, Zhuo Tianyu, was reorganized from the 29th Army.

He is currently the only captain battalion commander in the 358th Regiment.

He performed well in this battle and should be promoted to major.

He was just an ordinary platoon leader before, but he was appreciated by Chu Yunfei and was considered a half-direct descendant.

The third battalion commander is Luo Weiguo.

He was sent by the commander's headquarters, and in fact he was Yan Laoxi's man.

He is not highly valued by Chu Yunfei.

In this battle, except for the third battalion, all the other battalions were awarded military merits and medals.

But then again.

In the eyes of these people, Wu Ziqiang is synonymous with mediocre ability.
Already this age.

Wu Ziqiang is not a studious person, so how could there be any significant changes?
Chu Yunfei stared at the sand table for a while.

Then he stepped forward and took down the military flag on the Fanzhisi County.

It was inserted into the sand pile representing Dai County.

To the south of Dai County are Gang County, Yuanping and Xinkou.

It is also the place where Yan Laoxi had anticipated the decisive battle.

Xinkou is the last barrier of Taiyuan City. If it is lost, Taiyuan will be lost.

All combat deployments were actually carried out around the national defense fortifications on the Xinkou line.

Just as Chu Yunfei frowned and thought, the phone rang.

Sun Ming quickly stepped forward and answered: "Headquarters, I heard you, please speak."

"it is good!"

After hanging up the phone, Sun Ming turned around and said, "Commander, another group of Eighth Route Army soldiers have arrived at the ferry. They say they are from the 386nd Regiment of the 772th Brigade. Captain Zhuo wants you to come over."

"Send someone to notify the New 1st Regiment and tell them that their pick-up has arrived."

"Yes!"
