Anti-Japanese Jagged General

Chapter 432 Lao Jiang is worried (second update!)
"Yoxi!" A very strong smile appeared on the tense face of the air force commander.

Standing up directly from his seat, he ordered as he walked out: "Go! Follow me to the headquarters. I want you to report to the Commander of the Front Army in person. You must know that the Commander is very concerned about whether you can destroy the Eighth Route Army's arsenal. Stay in the office and wait for news!"

Being able to meet the commander of the North China Front Army is definitely an excellent opportunity for Colonel Ishida.

As long as the results of the battle are recognized by the commander, with the commander's status in the empire, he can be directly promoted from the chief general to the major general with just one sentence.

The excited Ishida immediately replied: "Thank you, sir, for giving me this opportunity, and I will definitely live up to my high expectations!"

After saying this, Ishida Dazuo followed the commander to the headquarters of the North China Front Army in the city.

This large-scale bombing in the Wutai Mountains not only shocked the entire Eighth Route Army, but also shocked the Japanese North China Front Army's attention to the Eighth Route Army's arsenal.At the same time, it also shocked Lao Jiang who was far away in Chongqing.

The Japanese attached so much importance to the Eighth Route Army, which not only pleased and excited Lao Jiang, but also deeply worried him.

The excitement is because the more the Japanese attach importance to the Eighth Route Army, the more troops will be mobilized to deal with the Eighth Route Army.In this way, my plan to consume the Eighth Route Army by the hands of the Japanese, or even get rid of the Eighth Route Army, can be realized.

As for the worry, it is also because the Japanese attach great importance to the Eighth Route Army.

During the more than one year of the Anti-Japanese War, the Japanese only dispatched such a large-scale bomber fleet when confronting the Central Army under their command.

Nowadays, the Japanese have dispatched such a large-scale fleet to the Eighth Route Army, which directly shows that in the eyes of the Japanese, the Eighth Route Army already has an equal status with the Central Army.

On the battlefield, status is the most direct manifestation of strength. This also proves from another aspect that the Eighth Route Army is now very powerful, so strong that the Japanese have to use the strength and energy to deal with the Central Army to deal with them.

Such a powerful Eighth Route Army, if the Japanese can continue to consume and eat it, Lao Jiang is not worried at all.

But the problem is that the Eighth Route Army is like a cockroach that cannot be killed.If one is not good, not only will it not be wiped out by the Japanese, but it will continue to grow and develop.

You know, a year ago, I had the same idea in sending the Eighth Route Army to North China to fight against Japan, hoping to get rid of my old opponent with the help of the Japanese.

However, more than a year has passed, not only has the old opponent not been eliminated, but it has grown stronger and stronger.

Now, Lao Jiang is very worried that his dream will be shattered again, and then the Eighth Route Army will further rise against the trend!

The Minister of Military and Political Affairs, Dai Li and others standing in front of him did not understand Lao Jiang's complicated mood now.

Seeing that Lao Jiang hesitated for almost 5 minutes without saying a word, Dai Li couldn't help reminding: "Principal, are you still worried about the Eighth Route Army Arsenal?"

"The Japanese army dispatched more than 30 bombers and fighter jets at a time, and a mountain can be blown into scorched earth, let alone the arsenal. The students are sure that the Eighth Route Army's arsenal must be razed to the ground!"

"No, I'm not worried about the arsenal. What I'm worried about is the development potential of the Eighth Route Army!" Old Jiang replied shaking his head.

"Niang Xipi, it didn't take long for the Eighth Route Army to develop to such a scale after it entered North China, and it also established an arsenal of such a scale. Rifles, machine guns, artillery, and ammunition can all be produced. If it wasn't for the vigilance of the intelligence department this time, the Japanese Send out a bomber fleet to blow it up. What will the Eighth Route Army be like in half a year, or even a year? Have you ever thought about it!"

Dai Li quickly replied: "Please rest assured, the principal, the students will definitely strengthen the collection of information about the Eighth Route Army in the future!"

"En!" Lao Jiang nodded and ordered: "The Military and Political Department should also pay attention to strictly control the scope of the Eighth Route Army's activities in North China, and they are absolutely not allowed to operate outside the scope!"

"What about the Japanese-occupied area? How about the area they regained from the Japanese!" asked the Minister of Military and Political Affairs, frowning.

"Send our people to take over. If the Eighth Route Army can continue to grow and develop behind the enemy lines, so can we. The Military and Political Department should also pay attention to guerrilla warfare behind the enemy lines, deploy troops to enter the enemy's rear, and compete with the Japanese and the Eighth Route Army for territory and people's hearts. The Eighth Route Army cannot be behind the enemy lines. Occupied!"

"Don't wait for the Japanese to be defeated by us, and most of China will be controlled by the Eighth Route Army!"

It is difficult to say this sentence, but it is very difficult to actually do it.

The Minister of Military and Political Affairs has also dealt with the Eighth Route Army for more than ten years, and he is very clear about the various difficulties he will face behind this difficulty.

But in the face of Lao Jiang's dissatisfaction and anger that may be vented at any time, no matter how much aggrieved and dissatisfied he is, he can only endure it.

Then bit the bullet and replied: "Chairman, don't worry, the Military and Political Department will give orders to the Eighth Route Army headquarters after we go down!"

The heavy expression on Lao Jiang's face finally looks a lot better!After taking a long breath, he turned his attention to Dai Li again.

"Yunong, the military command needs to further confirm whether the Eighth Route Army's arsenal has really been destroyed!"

"Although we all believe in the powerful destructive power of the Devil's bomber fleet. But I haven't seen it with my own eyes, so I'm still a little worried!"

"It can produce all the equipment for an infantry brigade in a month. The national government now has only one such large-scale arsenal."

"If it is not blown up, the Eighth Route Army can get a brigade's equipment a month. In addition, the Eighth Route Army can easily expand its troops by [-] troops a year. This is not counted as the Eighth Route Army. Weapon expansion, troops!"

"Mother Hippie, just mentioning this makes me so angry!"

"The national government has only one such arsenal with national resources. The Eighth Route Army snatched such a large-scale arsenal from the Japanese!"

"Is it because our people are incompetent, or the people of the Eighth Route Army are too powerful!"

Dai Li quickly replied: "Principal, don't worry, we know the location of the Eighth Route Army arsenal. After going down, the students will arrange people to investigate and ask them to take pictures to confirm!"

The Minister of Military and Political Affairs then replied: "Chairman, the reason why our military industry cannot develop is not that we are incompetent, but that the logistics procurement department would rather purchase imported rifles than domestic rifles. Because of the raw materials, the production of domestic weapons is also difficult. Can't keep up with consumption!"

"And if the military industry is to be developed on a large scale, the government needs to invest a lot of money in the early stage. However, the government can't even meet the military expenses of frontline soldiers, let alone invest in military production."

The Minister of Military and Political Affairs said it with a high-sounding tone, but Lao Jiang could hear the chill hidden behind this sentence immediately.

There are too many interests and snobbery involved in purchasing weapons and equipment and developing military industry by ourselves.

Even if Lao Jiang is the chairman of the committee, he doesn't have enough confidence to touch these things.

Frowning, he could only change the subject and said, "No matter what, I absolutely don't allow the Eighth Route Army to have its own military industry and produce its own weapons and ammunition!"
