my bright sword career

After hearing Political Commissar Ping's political analysis of Ningji Okamura's motives, Gao Hongming thought for a while and gave him a thumbs up: "Commissioner Ping, you are this, Ningji Okamura mainly heard your words , will definitely introduce you as a bosom friend!"

Hearing Gao Hongming's words, Ping's political commissar was overjoyed, "Well, Gao Hongming, you are hurting me."

"Don't dare!" Gao Hongming hurriedly waved his hands again and again. No matter how arrogant he was, he didn't dare to compare with this big guy, who will be famous in history in the future.

"Several chiefs, the headquarters is calling!" At this moment, a staff officer strode forward and handed a telegram to Master Liu.

After reading the telegram, Master Liu passed the telegram to Gao Hongming: "Look at it all, just now it was said that Neji Okamura was riding a tiger, but there was a commotion, even if we want to end this battle now, it is impossible!
But Brother Gao, there are still some things that need your consent. "

After Gao Hongming took the telegram and read it at a glance, he couldn't help exclaiming: "Isn't it? Are you going to play such a big game?"

This telegram with several hundred words explained the current form, and also explained in detail the involvement of the Jinsui Army. In the end, the deputy commander-in-chief also asked Gao Hongming about the establishment of the The idea of ​​a new interim joint command and hoped to gain his support.

Gao Hongming handed the telegram to Political Commissar Ping, but he couldn't help pinching his forehead with his hands, panting silently in his heart, and finally couldn't help but exclaim: "If you really want to set up a new joint command, you can directly There must be more than [-] troops under our command, right?"

Political Commissar Ping, who had just finished reading the telegram, nodded: "That's right, at least 13 yuan, maybe it will have to increase in the future."

"Let's count the Japanese army again." Political Commissar Ping spread his fingers and calculated, "During this period, let's not talk about the 108th Division and the Sixth Division that were just defeated by us, but count as the enemies we face. Mixed into the Ninth Brigade and the 86th Brigade.

After these days of fierce fighting, the two brigades have lost at least one-third to half of their staff, which should be nothing to fear.

But if you add the independent mixed Second Brigade, 110th Division and 115th Division transferred from Inner Mongolia, Suiyuan and Chahar, and the various troops in Shanxi, there will be at least 7 to [-] people in total.

Calculated in this way, if this battle is really unavoidable, it will be a big battle with tens of thousands of people. "

Having said that, Mr. Liu and the political commissar watched each other face to face.

In fact, no one expected things to develop to this point. The purpose of the Eighth Route Army these years has always been in accordance with what the teacher said in "On Protracted War", quietly waiting for our army to start from strategic defense, strategic stalemate, and strategic counterattack. Three stage transition.

Silently develop and accumulate strength and wait for the opportunity, and wait until one's own strength surpasses the Japanese army, and then drive the Japanese army out of China in one fell swoop.

But the current situation seems to have undergone some changes. Due to the appearance of Gao Hongming, the military strength of the Huaxia Army in Shanxi has undergone fundamental changes, and the strength of the Eighth Route Army has improved qualitatively compared with another time and space. Taiyuan's timing has advanced.

This situation not only made Okamura Ningji feel a strong crisis, especially the rise of the Liantai militia led by Gao Hongming and the Taiwan-connected flight corps with more than 200 aircraft, it made him feel stuck in his throat, forcing him to prefer to take the ongoing When the sweeping plan is stopped, Gao Hongming must be dealt with first.

Gao Hongming couldn't help sighing: "The mountain is about to rain and the wind is filling the building!"

"Yes!" Master Liu couldn't help but joked: "If this battle is won, the situation in Shanxi will be fundamentally changed. If we lose, I'm afraid we will have to trouble brother Gao to join us Let's drill the valley and fight guerrillas!"

"Hahaha……"

After speaking, the three laughed together.

After laughing, Political Commissar Ping asked: "Commander Gao, what do you think about the fact that the Jinsui Army will also join the war?"

Gao Hongming said without hesitation: "My attitude is very simple. Since Commander Yan wants to participate, let him come. With five divisions of the Jinsui Army and three artillery battalions participating in the battle, our strength will be even stronger. It will be more certain to regain Taiyuan."

"Since brother Gao has no objection to the Jinsui army's participation in the war, then we will report to the headquarters in this way."

"can!"

Gao Hongming said: "In this way, I will also send a telegram to Chief Yan to express my attitude. After all, Chief Yan is our superior, and our attitude must be correct, and we cannot be challenged."

Regarding Gao Hongming's attitude, Teacher Liu strongly agrees: "That's right, no matter what, our etiquette must be up to date, and we must be courteous."

After the three finalized the matter, they quickly sent telegrams to the Eighth Route Army Headquarters and the World War II Zone Command respectively, expressing their attitudes.

The World War II area and the Eighth Route Army headquarters responded very quickly, and the three parties quickly finalized the details. Then the next day, Sun Chu and Yang Aiyuan took dozens of staff officers and officers of the Jinsui Army on three planes nicknamed Iron and Steel Annie's JU-52 transport plane came to Liantai County.

To show their importance, Gao Hongming, Mr. Liu, and Political Commissar Ping went to the airport to greet her in person.

"Mr. Yang, Mr. Sun welcomes your arrival. The arrival of the two of you will make Liantai County flourish!"

Yang Aiyuan is a thin middle-aged man wearing glasses, with a refined appearance, more like a teacher in terms of appearance.

Although Yang Aiyuan, as the deputy commander-in-chief of the World War II area, was much higher than Gao Hongming, he didn't show any airs, and instead smiled at Gao Hongming.

"Captain Gao, I have admired you for a long time, I only regret that I was not there when you went to Kenanpo a few times ago, and today I am finally lucky enough to see you.

And from today onwards, we will be working together for a while, but I hope you don't dislike my old man's long-windedness in the future. "

Gao Hongming said humbly: "The honor of the officer, in terms of age, the staff department is a junior. In terms of position, you are the deputy commander-in-chief of our World War II zone. It is an honor for the staff department to have the honor to listen to your teachings. Why do you hate it?"

Seeing Gao Hongming's modest appearance, Yang Aiyuan let go of his original concerns.

What he was most worried about before coming here was that Gao Hongming, a local snake, would not give him face, or would be obedient and obedient.

Although he is the deputy commander of the World War II zone, Gao Hongming's Liantai militia has its own system, and because it sells medicines with the Jinsui Army, it has a deep relationship with many generals in the World War II zone. , he really has nothing to do with him.

Now seeing that Gao Hongming didn't give him a face because of his relationship with the Jinsui Army, his heart is also relieved. It seems that the eldest son of the old Gao family still understands etiquette. The days are much more comfortable.
