Even if I'm a useless bum at Whampoa Military Academy, I'll be invincible in the War of Re

In the northwest of Yixian County, at Yuntougu and Taierzhuang, the fighting was in full swing, while Zhao Yunwen became a leisurely person, playing chess with Qiu Fengzi.

They had no choice but to be idle; at this moment, the 10th Regiment was searching along the Jinpu Railway, and they were bored out of their minds.

Zhao Yunwen was good at fighting, but his chess skills were too ordinary. He was unwilling to accept Qiu Feng's suggestion to give him a "rook" move, and as a result, he was defeated by Qiu Feng after only a dozen moves.

Zhao Yunwen immediately started acting like a rogue:

"Where did you get this horse? Did you steal it?"

Qiu Fengzi had never seen a senior like this before, and he barely suppressed his anger as he said:

"You can doubt my skill level, but you can't question my sportsmanship. With so many people watching, how could I possibly steal a move?"

Zhao Yunwen cast a suspicious glance at Wang Guohua, who happened to turn his head away and didn't look at him.

Then Zhao Yunwen thought of finding the answer from Xie Polu. Old Xie was obviously more honest than Wang Guohua, and said in a serious tone:

"His horse hasn't moved at all."

Zhao Yunwen smiled awkwardly and said:

"I didn't see the horse, so it doesn't count. The hindsight move is unsolvable. If I had seen it, I definitely wouldn't have played it that way."

After saying that, he started to take back his move, and Qiu Fengzi glared at him and said:

"Senior, it's a promise, once a move is made, there's no going back!"

"Wang Guohua, did I say that?"

"Commander, I didn't notice."

For Wang Guohua, Qiu Fengzi from the second cohort and Zhao Yunwen from the first cohort were both senior students, and he, from the sixth cohort, would not get involved.

Zhao Yunwen was too lazy to ask Xie Polu any more questions. He knew that if he did, Xie would just side with Qiu Fengzi and say that he, as the senior brother, had failed miserably.

But he really didn't see it, and the mini-map didn't work either. Before he transmigrated, he was a notorious terrible chess player, the kind who was bad at chess but loved to play.

Seeing that Qiu Fengzi wouldn't let him take back his move, and not wanting to openly cheat, Zhao Yunwen could only say:

"This game doesn't count. Let's play again. We agreed that no one can take back their moves. I'm sure I won't miss anything."

Wang Guohua turned his head again. He loved seeing Qiu Fengzi's helpless expression. Anyway, he would rather fight the Japanese with bayonets than play chess with Zhao Yunwen.

Before Qiu Fengzi could speak, Zhao Yunwen had already resumed the game, his movements were extremely swift, as if afraid that others might still remember it.

That game is over; it was a draw.

"System, could you give me a pointer on one game? If this keeps going to be a draw, I'm losing face!"

[Host, I'm a businessman, 100 contribution points!]

"Why don't you just rob someone? 100 contribution points can be exchanged for 1 bullets! It's just a game of chess; I don't believe we can't win without your AI!"

Zhao Yunwen still has some principles; he wouldn't do something like spending 10000 bullets to win a game of chess.

"A direct shot!"

Zhao Yunwen took the initiative, Qiu Fengzi jumped off his horse and rode out of the chariot, and the two began to fight back and forth.

After a dozen or so moves, Zhao Yunwen excitedly took Qiu Fengzi's car. Before Qiu Fengzi could back out, he said triumphantly:

"Once a move is made, there's no going back!"

Qiu the Madman quickly said:

"I didn't see it."

"That's none of my business! I was going easy on you before—"

[Host, warning! Warning! You're finished!]

Zhao Yunwen subconsciously tried to pull back the car, but Qiu Fengzi fired a cannon and ate the elephant—a series of cannon shots!

Wang Guohua held his head in his hand, turned around again, and thought, "He's so bad, I can't bear to look at him."

Zhao Yunwen was completely dumbfounded. He was so focused on the other side's "car" that he forgot about the safety of his old general.

"I didn't see it... Could you please?"

"cannot!"

"draw?"

"Senior, what are you thinking? A barrage of attacks, there's no way to counter it!"

Just then, the communications officer rushed in, holding a telegram in his hand. It was clearly an urgent telegram. Zhao Yunwen suddenly stood up, accidentally knocking over the chessboard.

Wang Guohua distanced himself from him by several centimeters, and Zhao Yunwen only noticed this after receiving the telegram, so he had no choice but to speak:

"It's my fault, let's call it a draw!"

Qiu Fengzi could only stare helplessly. How could the principal have produced such a shameless senior? No wonder even the Japanese soldiers had a headache.

Zhao Yunwen said excitedly:

"Brothers, we've got a job! That old devil Seya has finally decided to invest heavily!"

The Taierzhuang expedition team attacked for three days without making any progress and suffered heavy casualties.

Major General Seya immediately ordered the 63rd Infantry Regiment and its remaining two battalions to move south to reinforce the main force in the attack on the walls and core positions of Taierzhuang.

The 10th Infantry Regiment dispatched its main force southward and deployed it to the west of Taierzhuang and along the Guoliji line to carry out flanking maneuvers, block our reinforcements, and prevent encirclement.

Each regiment left a small number of detachments, brigade headquarters, logistics, and artillery reserves to hold Yixian County.

Qiu the Madman lost all interest in playing chess and excitedly volunteered for a match:

"Should I take the Fourth Regiment to wipe out the Japanese stronghold? Maybe we can even catch that old bastard, Seya!"

Zhao Yunwen said with a disdainful look:

"Why arrest him? The 107th Division doesn't have enough food to support idlers!"

"Although the Japanese troops left behind cannot hold Yixian, they can still cover the escape of the old Japanese soldier Seya. Now is not the time to alert the enemy!"

What we want is to annihilate the enemy's manpower, not to scare the Japanese away. Taierzhuang is just bait that Commander Li threw to the Japanese; the fish have only just entered the baited area, it's far too early to pack up.

Qiu Fengzi also realized that he had been too aggressive. He discovered that as long as they were away from the chessboard, Zhao Yunwen was as shrewd as a monkey and would consider every aspect.

"Commander, what's the next step?"

Qiu Fengzi humbly sought advice, while Zhao Yunwen's tiger-like eyes flashed with a sharp light, clearly indicating that he was confident in his abilities.

"Brothers, the Japanese heavy firepower has been greatly reduced. With the three infantry battalions of the 63rd Regiment, they cannot take Taierzhuang."

Since the Japanese have relinquished control of the Jinpu Railway section north of Yixian, we will take over. We will send only one battalion to harass their supply lines, forcing the main force of the 10th Division in western Shandong to send troops to eliminate them.

"If the Japanese send reinforcements south, the battalion responsible for harassment will lure them into the mountains. We'll ambush them beforehand, wiping them out one by one, two by two. While they fight at Taierzhuang, we'll fight our own! When the time is right, we'll surround Yixian and scare that old devil, Seya."

Wang Guohua interjected:

"As long as Yixian is not safe, the main force of the 10th Division will move south, adding another group of guests. The premise is that we cannot expose our full strength. I think one regiment is enough."

Qiu the Madman quickly said:

"Brigade Commander Wang, although the 648th Regiment is more adept at guerrilla and mobile warfare, the 646th Regiment should also learn from them. You can't compete with me this time!"

Qiu Fengzi didn't dare to act like a senior student from the second term. Wang Guohua was Zhao Yunwen's protégé, so he came up with a high-sounding reason: the 646th Regiment also needed to improve through actual combat.

Wang Guohua said with a smile:

"Brigade Commander Qiu, I have no intention of competing with you. I will follow the division commander's instructions."

Qiu Fengzi then looked at Zhao Yunwen with expectant eyes, making it impossible for him to refuse. He could only say:

"Then hand it over to the 646th Regiment, under the command of Qiu Qingquan, while the main force of the 648th Regiment stays behind to be ready to provide reinforcements at any time."

Remember, Yixian County needs to control the intensity of their actions, lest they scare the big fish away!

Qiu the Madman patted his chest and said:

"Don't worry, Commander, I know what I'm doing."

After saying that, he fled the command post as if he were running away, afraid that Zhao Yunwen would change his mind.

Zhao Yunwen, finding himself alright again, could only pull Wang Guohua aside and say:

"Old Wang, how about we play another round? I'll give you a handicap of a horse and a rook!"

"Commander, Brigade Commander Qiu has taken the main force with him. Only two infantry battalions remain at Yuntougu. I need to readjust the deployment. I'll have Chief of Staff Xie accompany you."

Zhao Yunwen said with disdain:

"What's the point of playing against such a terrible chess player? It's pointless."

"Commander, who are you calling a terrible chess player? I don't like hearing that. I may not be as good as you at fighting, but at chess, I'll give you a handicap of one cannon!"

Xie Polu felt he had been very lenient with Zhao Yunwen, as Qiu Fengzi had never won against him.

"Old Xie, anyone can brag. Let's see what they're made of."

After saying that, he started setting up the chess pieces, unceremoniously choosing the red side, and shouted:

"A direct shot!"

Xie Polu was speechless. Zhao Yunwen liked to use the "cannon" whether he was playing chess or fighting a war!

Zhao Yunwen seemed to have guessed what Xie Polu was thinking, and shook his head, saying:

"You don't understand, wealth means overwhelming firepower!"
