Bright Sword Military System

Chapter 459

Happy Mid-Autumn Festival, brothers, and family reunion!
------

On the issue of Yuncheng, Wang Xuexin believes that the greatest advantage of the Eighth Route Army is not its strength, equipment, or strategy, but "the aspiration of the people."

It is true that the Eighth Route Army has more troops than the Jinsui Army, but on the one hand, most of the Eighth Route Army’s troops are distributed in Luliang Mountain to build a defense line; After Jiang's 40 rifles, it increased to 11.

Compared with the approximately 15 troops of the Jinsui Army, this force has no advantage at all.

Equipment, the Jinsui Army has guns and cannons, and the light and heavy equipment is much more complete than the Eighth Route Army. If the Eighth Route Army has any advantages, it is the dozens of tanks that Wang Xuexin bought from Mao Xiong, but these tanks have not yet arrived. .

In terms of strategy, the Eighth Route Army originally had an advantage, but after Chu Yunfei guessed the strategic goal of the Eighth Route Army, the Eighth Route Army lost its advantage and fell into a certain passiveness... Although it is not in the interests of the Jinsui Army to leak information to the devils, the Jinsui Army Army can use this to threaten the Eighth Route Army.

After all, this is life and death for the Eighth Route Army, and the Jinsui Army will withdraw from Shanxi and completely rely on the stubborn army at worst.

The reason why the "people's aspiration" is the advantage of the Eighth Route Army is that the Eighth Route Army is willing to cooperate and is willing to give up Yuncheng... The Jinsui Army has nothing to do.

Don't choose Yuncheng?

This is the place where the Jinsui army dreamed of returning, and it can be said to be the biggest concession of the Eighth Route Army. How could it not be possible!

If not, the Eighth Route Army, which was originally aspired by the people, will definitely grow rapidly here, which is not what the Jinsui Army wants to see!
Choose Yuncheng?

Life and death are in the hands of the Eighth Route Army, not to mention the counterattack of the devils, which seems uneconomical.

If it's just that, then that's fine. What's even more troublesome is... Yuncheng is a big city with hundreds of thousands of people, and the people obviously support the Eighth Route Army. Even if the Jinsui Army takes full control of Yuncheng, it still can't stop the flow of troops and talents. Eighth Route Army.

There is a saying "He who wins the hearts of the people wins the world".

This cannot be said for sure, but there is some truth to it.

Because it has won the hearts of the people, the Eighth Route Army can safely let go of a big city like Yuncheng, which is made up of people.

But for the Jinsui Army...even if it wants to hold on tight, it may become a hot potato.

At this moment, Yan Laoxi didn't think so deeply. When Chu Yunfei returned to the headquarters to secretly report to Yan Laoxi, Yan Laoxi's eyes lit up immediately.

"Is this really true?" Yan Laoxi sat up from his chair in a jerk.

"It's absolutely true!" Chu Yunfei replied with certainty: "Commander, although I haven't had much contact with Li Yunlong, I know him quite well, and his reaction is enough to prove that what I expected was correct. The Eighth Route Army did attack Yuncheng. the purpose!"

Therefore, the responsibility is not only Sun Ming, but Li Yunlong is also responsible... Although Li Yunlong has a powerful mouth, he can't hide what's going on in his heart, and it's all on his face.

Yan Laoxi was anxious and excited when he heard that, walking back and forth in front of the chair, his military boots thumping on the wooden floor.

He was anxious because he was worried that if the Eighth Route Army succeeded, it would not be easy to take back Yuncheng from them.

If Yuncheng is in the hands of the devils, the Jinsui army will take back Yuncheng to eliminate harm for the people and win glory for the country.

If Yuncheng is in the hands of the Eighth Route Army, what would it be called if the Jinsui army went to fight Yuncheng?That is called self-destruction of the Great Wall before foreign aggression, and the Jinsui Army will soon be pushed to the forefront by the whole country.

Of course, Yan Laoxi didn't care about such mother-in-law public opinion.

The problem is that if public opinion is against him, the Jinsui Army will neither be able to recruit soldiers nor get assistance, which is what the Jinsui Army needs most at this time.

Therefore, no matter how you say it, you cannot let the Eighth Route Army take Yuncheng to itself.

I was excited because I once lamented that it was far away to regain Yuncheng, and even worried that I would be driven out of Shanxi by the devils and be "completely" recruited by the recalcitrant army. I didn't expect that there would be a chance to make a comeback so soon.

Suddenly, Yan Laoxi stopped and ordered Chu Yunfei: "This matter must be kept secret, and no one else should know! If it is leaked... the consequences will be disastrous!"

"Yes, Commander!" Chu Yunfei stood up and replied, "I have strictly ordered Fang Ligong and the guards to keep it a secret. Only a few of us know about this!"

Of course Chu Yunfei understood this reason, only by strictly keeping secrets would it be possible to cooperate with the Eighth Route Army, otherwise, it would be a chicken-and-egg situation.

"Also!" Then Yan Laoxi ordered: "Continue to keep in touch with the Eighth Route Army and let the Eighth Route Army know that if we don't cooperate...we have no obligation to keep it a secret!"

"Yes!" Chu Yunfei stood up again.

This is also what Chu Yunfei meant.

But of course, Chu Yunfei didn't want to go to this point, because doing so would not benefit either the Eighth Route Army or the Jinsui Army, and the only ones who would benefit were the devils.

But in order to return to Yuncheng...he had to take risks.

Chu Yunfei believed that the Eighth Route Army would not refuse to cooperate with the Jinsui Army at the risk of the devil knowing about its plan.

Chu Yunfei thought further, and then he leaned forward and whispered to Yan Laoxi: "Commander, if we want to cooperate with the Eighth Route Army, I'm afraid the Eighth Route Army will have some requirements..."

Yan Laoxi nodded without thinking, "We still have some guns and ammunition in stock, and we can also give some food. In addition..."

As Yan Laoxi whispered a few words to Chu Yunfei's side, Chu Yunfei nodded repeatedly.

Chu Yunfei was not in a hurry to contact Li Yunlong, he was waiting for Li Yunlong to contact him.

Chu Yunfei knew that the more impatient he was at this time, the more passive he would be in negotiating, and now should be the time to stop calmly.

Sure enough, soon Li Yunlong sent someone to deliver a letter to Chu Yunfei. The letter was written in a very elegant manner, and it was obvious that it was not something Li Yunlong could say:

"Brother Chu, I said goodbye to the three stores a few days ago. I feel ashamed that I couldn't entertain you because of business. If Brother Chu goes to the three stores tomorrow and let me be the host, you and my brother can have a good get-together. It’s my little brother’s apology to Brother Chu, I hope Brother Chu will reward you!”

In fact, this is indeed what Li Yunlong meant, but it was written by Zhao Gang... Li Yunlong couldn't write a letter because he didn't know a few big characters.

Zhao Gang felt that the vernacular in the letter was not up to standard, so he changed it without authorization.

Chu Yunfei stared at Xinlue for a moment, then stood up and said to the guards: "Prepare your horse, go to the third store!"

Fang Ligong was puzzled, and stepped forward to ask: "Tuan Zuo, didn't the letter say we will meet again tomorrow? Let's go right now..."

Chu Yunfei smiled, and replied: "We'll go tomorrow, should we make them ready?"

Fang Ligong said "Oh" and understood that Chu Yunfei was going to kill Li Yunlong again by surprise.
