During the War of Resistance Against Japan: After being scattered at Cangyunling, he brought back a

This is also the main reason why he allocated 50,000 li to Chu Yunfei.

"Fine!"

“Actually, Lao Zhao! Do you know what I’m most worried about right now?” Xie Jinyuan paused and then spoke.

"what?"

"Old Yan!"

"Yan Laoxi?"

"Old Xie! You mean that letter?" Zhao Gang frowned instantly.

"Ok!"

"Thank you!"

"I don't really understand why Yan Laoxiong went to Tianjin?" Zhao Gang couldn't help but ask in confusion.

In his view, Yan Xishan's Jin-Sui Army, though strong, was only limited in its capabilities.

Tianjin has Bai Congxi, and on the same side is Du Yuming from Taipei.

Yan Laoxi seems to be unable to do anything.

"Old Zhao!"

"If I said it was for the future, would you believe me?" Xie Jinyuan asked thoughtfully.

"What do you mean?"

"The entry of the New Third Front Army into the pass this time was approved by Chongqing!" (293)

But the truth will eventually come out!

"Once Xue Yue is defeated, the new Third Front Army must enter the pass in full force!"

"What do you think Shancheng will do then?" Xie Jinyuan asked in a deep voice.

"Old Xie! You mean we might go to war with Shancheng?"

Zhao Gang looked on incredulously.

"It's not possible!"

"Yes for sure!"

"Therefore, Yan Laoxi's power is crucial!"

"That's actually the main reason why I gave Taiyuan to Yan Laoxi with nothing!" Xie Jinyuan shook his head and said.

Unless they don't enter the pass, the new Third Front Army will remain entrenched in the three northeastern provinces, just like the old marshals of yesteryear.

Once they enter the pass, a decisive battle must be fought between the forces and the mountain city.

Fighting alone was clearly not in line with his style.

The fact that Yan Laoxi has survived to this day from that era is not only due to his considerable abilities.

Another factor is the influence of Yan Laoxi.

This is also how he kept sending signals to Yan Laoxi.

"But Lao Xie!"

"Old Yan might not be so!" Zhao Gang paused, then couldn't help but say.

Regardless, Yan Xishan was the supreme commander of the Second World War Zone.

"Ha ha!"

"That wasn't always the case!"

"But now! I'm afraid Old Yan would rather tear that guy from Shancheng to pieces!"

Xie Jinyuan shook his head sharply and laughed.

The Jin-Sui Army suffered heavy casualties, and the Second War Zone was riddled with holes.

If it weren't for our own troop reinforcements, the Second World War zone might not exist anymore.

In fact, Yan Laoxi knew in his heart that Shancheng's move was definitely suspected of eliminating dissidents.

But they had no way to express their grievances; in terms of the greater good, Shancheng had not done anything wrong.

"Alright!" Zhao Gang nodded helplessly.

If it were before, he would have said something, and he would have been even more skeptical that Shancheng could do such a thing at this time. But after a series of events, he couldn't help but believe it.

All of Lao Xie's guesses came true.

"Old Zhao!"

"The rear areas of the new Third Army will all be in your hands from now on!" After a moment of contemplation, Xie Jinyuan looked at Zhao Gang and said abruptly.

"Hand it over to me?"

"Xie Jinyuan! You son of a bitch, you don't want to?!" Zhao Gang pointed angrily at Xie Jinyuan.

"Old Zhao!"

"Everything in Kanto has been arranged!"

"Even the major army groups are assembling and waiting for orders!"

"Now it's simply a matter of waiting for the right opportunity to fully enter the pass!"

“But inside the pass, I must make arrangements in advance!” Xie Jinyuan shook his head and said.

Not only Yan Laoxi, but also Bai Congxi!

This guy is restless from beginning to end!

……

Rear positions of the First Group Army at Shanhaiguan.

"Commander!"

"Urgent intelligence!"

Xue Yue's deputy quickly pushed open the door and stood at attention beside Xue Yue.

"speak!"

"Commander!"

"Urgent telegram from the mountain city!"

"The Kwantung Army began entering the pass a day ago!"

"Entering the customs?"

"What about the troop strength?" Xue Yue asked, his brows furrowed.

"Reporting to Commander!"

"There's no specific number, but it's estimated to be over 400,000!" Xue Yue's deputy swallowed hard.

How could we possibly defeat 400,000 Kwantung Army soldiers?

Although the First Army Group had a remarkable record, having fought in no fewer than a hundred battles, large and small.

However, the differences in strength among the Japanese soldiers were still quite significant.

"Four hundred thousand?"

Xue Yue's expression also suddenly turned serious.

It was impossible for the 700,000-strong Kwantung Army to march south in its entirety, since the three provinces of Kwantung could not be left unguarded.

Four hundred thousand is roughly the same number.

It's only 400,000!

"Report! Commander!"

"Something's wrong!" Just as the deputy was about to speak, a communications officer jogged in and pushed open the door to the command room, his face turning deathly pale.

"what's up?"

Xue Yue said with a displeased expression.

"Commander!"

"Operation...the Japanese air force has been spotted!"

"The air force has appeared!"

The messenger spoke haltingly.

Even his voice trembled.

"What did you say?"
