"What, what assistance?"

Song Xilian was the first to speak.Among the 645 graduates of the first phase of Whampoa, many of them can leave a little mark in history, but not many of them can leave a great reputation, and like him, he can make impressive achievements in the anti-Japanese battlefield less.Although he has only won the battle of Fujin Mountain so far, it is enough to be proud of the entire National Revolutionary Army.After all, not many Whampoa graduates have won battles against the Japanese invaders on the battlefield, and even fewer have won major battles.Moreover, he is also the one with the highest status in the entire No. 30 Fourth Army except Hu Zongnan, and he is also the one who is most valued by Lao Jiang.It was just right for him to ask.

"US aid." Zhang Zhizhong's answer was concise and clear.

"U.S. aid? No..." Fan Hanjie, Ding Delong and the others couldn't speak because they didn't have enough status.But Hu Zongnan and Song Xilian knew a lot about this matter, they even knew about the fight between Song Ziwen and Kong Xiangxi.Lao Jiang and Kong Xiangxi actually didn't want to rush to borrow money from the Americans, but Song Ziwen hurriedly took out a loan.Although there are a lot of them, they are thankless. If it weren't for the identity of Uncle Guo, they would have been cleaned up by Lao Jiang long ago.Even so, Lao Jiang sent a special telegram to the United States to scold people.But no matter what is going on, hasn't Song Ziwen already brought in "American aid"?Why did Zhang Zhizhong say that there are hundreds of millions more?

"Why did the central government specifically order you to open the fire this time?" Zhang Zhizhong found a seat and sat down, "Thousands of tons of guns, and they are all large-caliber guns. In the past, it would be enough for our millions of troops. The first half of the year, maybe even a year. But this time, you will be wasted in one battle. Don't you think that we have suddenly become rich and powerful?"

"Mr. Zhang, drink some water first." Ding Delong glanced at him, saw Zhang Zhizhong fumbling on the table, and hurriedly brought over the water bottle next to him.He took a teacup by hand, washed it with water, and then filled it up for Zhang Zhizhong.

"I admit that if the central government hadn't opened up the supply guns, our 34th Army would definitely not be able to fight this battle so smoothly." Hu Zongnan kept looking at Zhang Zhizhong's face when he spoke.Some guilty conscience.Everybody knows.The Japanese are not so easy to fight, but the North China Front Army has just gone through a series of battles, and was first led by Hayao Tada to surprise Zhongtiao Mountain.He confronted him, Yan Xishan, and Fu Zuoyi in Shanxi for a long time, and then turned over the Taihang Mountains to fight the Eighth Route Army. In the end, let alone the victory, he also lost Jun Tada and many senior officials at the general level. The morale of the army is extremely low and exhausted, and the consumption of materials is also extremely large.But their No.30 Fourth Army, except for moving during the last attack, has been resting all the time.Although Yoshio Shinozuka attacked him once, the loss was a bit big.But the muscles and bones are all there, especially with the strong support of Lao Jiang, the supply of large-caliber artillery and guns is extremely sufficient, and the air force is there to help, so it naturally has the upper hand.But Hu Zongnan is also very clear about fighting the Japanese army for so long.If it weren't for the large-scale use of shelling in this battle, which caught the Japanese by surprise, he might still be in a stalemate with Yoshio Shinozuka, and it would be even more impossible to send troops into the city of Taiyuan.

"Not to mention whether it goes well or not, but Yoshio Shinozuka was wronged." Zhang Zhizhong took a sip of water. "He still used his past experience to play against you. He was bombarded for the first time, but you broke through the line of defense, and finally organized the second line of defense. He thought that you should not be so 'generous', but he was hit again. Dun... It's a pity that he doesn't have a third chance. Otherwise, it's hard to say how the battle will go."

"Then the central government let us use a large number of large-caliber artillery. What does it have to do with US aid?" Zhang Zhizhong's words slapped his face, but Hu Zongnan didn't have any sullen expression on his face. Among them, those who can draw with the Japanese army in the case of superior military strength can already be called trump cards.Although his No. 30 Fourth Army is the direct line of the direct line, its combat effectiveness is not necessarily better than other trump cards.To be honest, he himself felt a little unbelievable that he could enter the city of Taiyuan so smoothly this time.Otherwise, he wouldn't be furious because the higher-ups told him to slow down his attack... Why should he let him give up such a rare opportunity to make great achievements?If Yoshio Shinozuka survives this time, he will be prepared against them in the future, and it will be difficult to fight like this again.And if it wasn't for Zhang Zhizhong's sudden arrival, he might have played the trick of "the general is out, and the emperor's fate is not accepted", and he will first take down Taiyuan City. [

"MacArthur was surrounded by Seishiro Sakagaki in Manila, are you all aware of this?" Zhang Zhizhong asked.

"I know." Song Xilian nodded, "At first I thought how capable that guy was, or how good Americans were at fighting, but I didn't expect that all he had was an embroidered pillow!"

"Embroidered pillows are not uncommon, but think about it, why did your battle to recover Shanxi start at about the same time as the Philippine campaign?" Zhang Zhizhong asked again.

"...Afraid that the Americans will ask us to support them?" Ding Delong asked cautiously.

"Don't the Americans need our help?" Hu Zongnan snorted coldly, "I heard that our Chief Qin was jumping up and down the Military Commission, always trying to help the Americans, but it's a pity that his hot face has a cold butt. People don't care at all."

"Of course I don't care. The Yankees were not surrounded at that time, and they didn't even look down on the Japanese, so how could they look down on us?" Fan Hanjie also interjected.

"That's right, the Americans really looked down on us at the time, and they didn't think we could help them, and they were afraid that we would cause trouble for them in the past." Zhang Zhizhong laughed, "But Shoushan, you said that Qin Wei was taking heat Putting your face on America's cold ass...it's all wrong."

"Wrong?" Hu Zongnan was taken aback, "Isn't it his idea?"

"It was his idea." Zhang Zhizhong said with a smile, "but it was just a play, for the American "government" and the American people to watch. From the very beginning, Qin Wei advocated that we should sit back and watch the tigers fight."

"Sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight?" Song Xilian frowned, "What does he mean?"

"We didn't think that the Americans could hold the Philippines." Zhang Zhizhong's lips curled up slightly, with a hint of a smirk, "I keep saying that I want to help the war, but I'm actually waiting for this day."

"this day?"

"That's right." Zhang Zhizhong heaved a sigh of relief, "Waiting for the day when MacArthur is defeated."

"Have the Americans asked us to send troops?" Hu Zongnan and others were not refreshed.At first, they wanted to help in the war but were rejected, but now MacArthur was defeated... They are also veterans in the battlefield, and they can guess the American plight with just a turn of their heads.Although it would be embarrassing to ask China for help at this time, no matter how embarrassing it is.It is not as important as those tens of thousands of American soldiers, nor is it as important as General MacArthur.

"That's right." Zhang Zhizhong also gloated a little, "We are the only ones who can help them now." [

"Then what does this have to do with our recovery of Shanxi?" Fan Hanjie asked strangely.

"Of course it has something to do with it." Zhang Zhizhong smiled, "You use thousands of tons of guns in a single battle. But how many large-caliber guns do we have in China? Almost all the firepower we can use is concentrated here. What can we do to rescue them?" American?"

"Hiss..." Hu Zongnan and others naturally heard the meaning of Zhang Zhizhong's words, and they all took a breath of cold air, "The central government doesn't want to save?"

"Now only the United States can support us in the war of resistance. If we don't save them, won't we offend them?" Ding Delong shouted.

"You can't say that," Song Xilian said with a suspicious expression on his face, "The Americans are far away in the Philippines, and we are still separated by an ocean. Even if we want to save them, how can we act?"

"Even if it is saved, the most is to send the air force to rescue that big talker MacArthur, which is still dangerous. Others... don't even think about it." Ding Delong thought for a while.Said.

"You're right. If we want to go directly to fight the Japanese army in the Philippines, it's really impossible." Zhang Zhizhong took another sip of water, "But we can still save people. Don't talk about saving one MacArthur, it is the entire Philippines." The U.S. military can save it with a little effort."

"..."

*********************************

"This is your weapon?"

Xi'an Airport.Doolittle was chatting with a Japanese soldier.However, the military uniform of this ** soldier is different from that of the Central Army.It is gray-blue. Although it is clean and tidy, as long as you know a little about the Chinese army, you can tell its origin at a glance... Northwest Army!This is very strange.Because since Zhang Xueliang and Yang Hucheng launched the "Xi'an" Incident together and were captured and detained by Lao Jiang successively, Xi'an is no longer the territory of the Northwest Army and the Northeast Army.Especially after Hu Zongnan entered Shaanxi with his army.The Northeast Army and Northwest Army have almost disappeared.It is even less likely to appear near a strategic location like the airport.But now, not only the soldier chatting with Doolittle was wearing the uniform of the Northwest Army, but almost all the people who were shot around the airport were wearing gray-blue military uniforms.The soldier even gave Doolittle his gun for inspection, much to the astonishment of the American hero.

"Of course it can't be compared with the Central Army." The soldier of the Northwest Army was smacking a cigarette, a serious American Camel cigarette, but he didn't light it: "Our Northwest Army was raised by the stepmother...well, you guys Maybe you don’t quite understand. How do you say it? By the way, you can understand us as black soldiers in your US military.”

"Every soldier in the U.S. Army is treated equally." Doolittle glanced at him, but didn't say much, Bao continued to observe the rifle in his hand: "The boring thread is almost worn out. How do you fight with this weapon?"

"It's good to have this kind of gun." The soldier of the Northwest Army sighed, "In some troops, many poor soldiers can only use old sleeves... Forget it, you don't understand it. Anyway, In a word, poor."

"But I think..."

"Zhao Bizheng, are you too free to do anything?" Doolittle was about to refute the soldier, but at this moment, an officer wearing the uniform of the Central Army ran over and yelled at the soldier: " The embarrassment has been thrown abroad! Why don't you go away?"

"Didn't I just say a few words casually? Military law can't control people's opening their mouths, right?" The soldier of the Northwest Army glanced at the officer with disdain, "Besides, you are just a little captain, why are you pretending to be an idiot?" force"?"

"Hey, hey, in the past, of course I couldn't compare to you as a major! It's a pity that you are only a private now! And you are under my supervision." The officer glared at him, "The oil depot hasn't been checked yet, you go with me... ...Still smoking? Can you smoke at the airport? Throw it away!"

"The surname is Li, if you have the ability, then..."

"Why so much nonsense? Why don't you come with me?"

Seeing that Zhao Bizheng was still about to speak, the officer surnamed Li stared again, as if he was about to explode.Seeing this situation, Doolittle hurriedly stood between the two:

"Captain, I think..."

"Lieutenant Colonel, forget it." Zhao Bizheng smiled disdainfully: "This guy is a country bumpkin who never went to school! He can't understand what you say."

"But……"

"Colonel, I'm taking this guy on a mission. Do yourself a favor."

The officer surnamed Li probably also heard that Zhao Bizheng didn't say anything good, his face darkened again, he saluted Doolittle, dragged Zhao Bizheng and walked towards the oil depot.Seeing this situation, Doolittle could only sigh helplessly behind, then turned around and walked towards the pilot lounge not far away.However, he, who was feeling sorry for Zhao Bizheng, didn't know that the officer surnamed Li who was aggressively dragging people to the oil depot was "dragging" Zhao Bizheng vigorously, while flattering Zhao Bizheng:

"Battalion Commander, am I okay like this? I practiced eight times before I came here."

"Fart a little bit, try harder next time...you naughty girl, pull harder, walk faster! Don't let that foreign hair see it."
