Anti-Japanese War: From Becoming Chu Yunfei to Rising

Chapter 43 Jiang Xianyun's pen and He Zhonghan's mouth are no match for Chen Geng's legs
Chu Yunfei snorted coldly and walked out of the command center.

Qian Bojun and Zhang Fugui looked at each other.

"Will the commander-in-chief go to trouble the commander-in-chief for this matter?"

Zhang Fugui touched his nose, rubbed it and said firmly: "It shouldn't be the case. After all, the commander didn't do anything wrong."

Qian Bojun was also somewhat helpless at this time: "The military order is urgent. If the commander makes such a fuss, it may delay a lot of time. The commander has to put the overall situation first."

358 regiment headquarters.

In front of Fang Ligong were the 386th Army Group, the Second War Zone Commander Headquarters, and the 385th and th Brigades of the Eighth Route Army.
The battle map is already densely marked.

Fang Ligong's work on the diagram is very beautiful.

Chu Yunfei could see clearly the movements of the friendly forces at this time.

"The 129th Division is planning to organize two ambushes in northern Shanxi. I remember this place was designated as a guerrilla zone by the 120th Division, isn't it?"

Fang Ligong was stunned for a moment, looking suspicious.

Guerrilla zone?
120?

When did I say that? It is true that the Eighth Route Army's overall strategy was reported to the Second War Zone.

But when was the 358th Regiment informed of this matter?
How did the commander know this?

He thought about it for a long time but still couldn't figure it out.

"Commander, the main force of the 14th Army has launched an attack on the Japanese invaders. Commander Wei believes that the Japanese invaders are likely to break out from our direction."

Chu Yunfei nodded, and then asked, "When we received supplies in Taiyuan City last time, did we receive a real number?"

Fang Ligong shook his head: "No, the materials we received were only half of what was allocated."

"Then why didn't you tell me about this?"

Chu Yunfei's brows were knitted together, and he was obviously unhappy.

Fang Ligong sighed and explained, "Commander, the military situation was urgent at the time. It was useless to argue with those bureaucrats who deserved to be killed. Besides, I have already informed Commander Yan about this matter."

Chu Yunfei sat aside, looking at the map, and asked, "How is this matter handled now?"

“No news yet”

"Brother Ligong, please send a telegram to Commander Yan in my name to report this matter again."

Fang Ligong was somewhat reluctant, and he advised: "Commander, the battle of Xinkou is imminent. If we rashly turn the blade inward, it may cause a certain degree of turmoil, and the morale of the army is likely to be affected."

Chu Yunfei seemed to be deaf and had no reaction. He continued to look at the battle map in front of him.

Two divisions of the Fourteenth Army were on the attack.

The other troops of the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army have basically been deployed.

If Chu Yunfei came to command.

It's not like General Wei Lihuang.

In the initial stage, they adopted offensive warfare and engaged in a head-on confrontation with the main force of the high-spirited Japanese invaders.

Instead, they relied on the advantageous terrain and topography, deployed their troops in stages to block the Japanese army and delay and consume its resources.

In short, it is to defend in advance.

When the Japanese offensive weakened and most of the supplies were consumed.

Then launch an all-out counterattack to expand the results of the battle.

General Wei, one of the Five Tiger Generals.

He is also one of the few talents under Chiang Kai-shek who can command large-scale military operations.

His strategy, to be fair.

There are many good points, and even the starting point is good.

However, even the elite 14th Army.

In the face of the Japanese invaders' "modernized" army, we were still at a disadvantage overall.

In the history that Chu Yunfei was familiar with, General Wei Lihuang adjusted very quickly. At least later generations did not criticize General Wei Lihuang for making major strategic mistakes in the Xinkou battlefield.
Just as Chu Yunfei frowned and thought hard, Fang Ligong waited for a long time without any response, and sighed slightly: "Commander... have you thought it through?"

Chu Yunfei nodded: "Brother Ligong, thank you for your hard work!"

Fang Ligong walked towards the confidential room, and Sun Ming beside him also took half a step forward.

"Commander, what are you worried about?"

"You are comparing the 386th Brigade of the Eighth Route Army with the st Independent Mixed Brigade of the Chahar Corps."

Chu Yunfei put down the battle map and turned to look at Sun Ming behind him: "Who has a stronger fighting spirit?"

"Although I don't want to admit that these Japanese soldiers who fought all the way from outside the Great Wall to the inside of the Great Wall are probably stronger..."

Chu Yunfei nodded: "They have just completed the regularization in the past six months, and the reorganization has just been completed."

"The Lin Division demonstrated the might of the Eighth Route Army in the battle of Pingxingguan, allowing the whole country to see the combat capability of the Eighth Route Army."

Sun Ming's words were a bit conservative: "I think the combat effectiveness of Chen's brigade will not be bad... After all, Commander Chen was already famous when he was in Huangpu."

"Jiang Xianyun's pen and He Zhonghan's mouth are not as good as Chen Geng's legs."

Chu Yunfei had a respectful look on his face, as if he was narrating a trivial matter.

"In that case, let's ask the 386th Brigade to help us block the attack and slow down the attack speed of the st Independent Mixed Brigade!"

"Commander, what do you want?"

Chu Yunfei nodded: "You guessed right, this matter needs to be reported to Chief Yan"

Second World War Commander Headquarters.

They rescued the body of Brigadier General Jiang, killed Japanese Major General Seiichiro Shinohara, occupied Yuanping City, and completed the blocking deployment.

one day one Night.

Chu Yunfei and the soldiers of the 358th Regiment completed one task after another.

In the eyes of these top executives, it is an impossible task.

It was already eight o'clock in the evening when Yan Laoxi received the telegram.

Liu Tao handed over three telegrams together.

As the director of confidential affairs, Liu Tao had naturally read the contents of the telegram.

The order of arrangement of telegrams is very particular.

Naturally, he would be very optimistic about Chu Yunfei, a rising star.

Just arrange them in chronological order.

He could feel it clearly.

The emotional changes of Yan Laoxi, commander-in-chief of the Second War Zone.

The first telegram was from Chu Yunfei reporting on the receipt of cement and steel bar supplies in Taiyuan area... hoping that he would investigate corruption.

The second telegram was from Chu Yunfei, requesting Commander Yan to order the 386th Brigade to assist the 358th Regiment in blocking the st Independent Mixed Brigade.

After reading this telegram, Yan Laoxi's mood did not change much.

Until the third telegram.

After seeing the recovery of Yuanping City, killing more than a thousand enemies and killing Major General Brigade Commander Seiichiro Shinohara, the encirclement was completed.

Yan Laoxi even stood up from the bench.

This is the only good news in the past half month!

How could he not be excited?
Yan Laoxi knew about the affairs of the bureaucracy in Taiyuan City, but he had no way to deal with it.

The things were transferred from Nanjing.

It's a process of peeling off layer by layer, and only half of the materials can be obtained from him.

One third of the funding is already very good.

Little did they know that even the national defense fortifications on the front line of Niangzi Pass were not even good enough for show?
