Bright Sword: Stop pretending, I am the most powerful warlord

In the evening of the same day, Wu Qianli returned to the station with his troops, and at the same time asked people to send the news of his complete annihilation of the Fourth Brigade to newspapers in various places!
After being shocked, the editor-in-chief of the newspaper organized the news as soon as possible, and the city newspaper sent it out in the early morning of the next day!
For a moment, the whole country was shocked, and there was an uproar.

The mobilization of the Fourth Brigade has long been known to the people of the whole country. People spread word of mouth, and they all know the history of the Fourth Brigade and the strength of the Fourth Brigade. They all think that they are invincible.

Moreover, the devil also released the news that the Fourth Brigade was mainly targeting Wu Qianli this time, which made everyone's hearts rise again.

Under such targeting, it is impossible for any army to survive if it does not run.Even at that time, some people began to mourn for Wu Qianli.

But no one thought that this time, not only did Wu Qianli not die, but he even killed the entire brigade of devils.This reversal greatly improved the morale of the entire Huaxia army.

"My God, didn't you say that the Fourth Brigade is very powerful? Why was it killed instead?"

"Who knows? Maybe these are all boasted by the devils. We have never seen it before, and we don't know what the Fourth Brigade is like!"

"It's true that the Devil's Fourth Brigade is powerful, but I think we should pay more attention to Wu Qianli who killed the Fourth Brigade!"

As the news spread, Wu Qianli's name spread throughout the country again, and even some people who thought they had some skills dug out all the things Wu Qianli had done!

Especially after they learned that Wu Qianli had been a prisoner before and endured humiliation, everyone admired Wu Qianli even more.

Even some literati and Confucians directly wrote poems to praise Wu Qianli's spirit, and many young students, regardless of their teachers' dissuasion, planned to join Wu Qianli's army in Northwest Shanxi!
Eighth Route Army Headquarters.

The deputy commander put down the newspaper in his hand and couldn't help laughing.

"We wiped out the Fourth Brigade and killed the commander of the Fourth Brigade, Yuuo Hirakata. Now Yoshio Shinozuka has very few cards in his hand. The little devil is not far from getting out of Northwest Shanxi!"

The chief of staff nodded: "The deputy commander-in-chief wiped out the Fourth Brigade. This is not a small contribution, and this reward should indeed be given."

"But there is one more important thing right now. Yoshio Shinozuka is currently without the Fourth Brigade, and his combat effectiveness has been greatly reduced. Can we use this opportunity to launch a full-scale counterattack?"

The deputy commander was silent for a while and said, "To be honest, I thought so."

"But after this battle, both sides suffered losses. The entire regiment of the 771st regiment was wiped out. At this time, a full-scale counterattack is obviously not a good idea."

"Wars are like this. We and the little devil are both consumed in the war. The comparison is who has more endurance."

"As for Wu Qianli, I think I will go to Feihu Ridge after I arrange things here, and see what else he needs."

"If there is no need, I don't think it's wrong to promote him to an official and make him the head of the regiment!"

The chief of staff nodded: "That's a good idea."

"If there is no official number, there will be no official number. At worst, after the battle is over, we will contact the mountain city in person."

"I've heard that the mountain city has always wanted to dig five thousand miles. If he makes this request, the president may not agree."

The deputy commander nodded: "I think it's okay."

In Luliang City.

Fatty Yan had just listened to Sun Nan's report and fell into deep thought.

Seeing this, Sun Nan said: "Sir, now the whole country is discussing Wu Qianli, should we do something?"

Fatty Yan waved his hand: "What can we do?"

"Now the people of the whole country believe that this battle was won by their eight forces. What else can we do? Splash dirty water?"

"I don't think it's necessary. It's better to do something practical than this."

"What do you mean?" Sun Nan asked puzzled.

Fatty Yan said with a smile: "Now the whole country is immersed in the joy of victory, I think we should increase the fire."

"Our Jinsui army is also contributing to this battle, and we should regain some lost ground. These can be published. Although we can't overwhelm the eight routes, at least we can get some benefits from it!"

Sun Nan was stunned: "Is this too deliberate? Those old antiques from the Republic of China are still alive, so I'm afraid they can't be fooled."

Fatty Yan waved his hand: "Don't worry, there are not many smart people in this world, and most of them are fools!"

"Newspapers are for smart people, but public opinion is spread by foolish people."

"The purpose of our newspapers has always been to deceive those foolish people. They don't care about the real situation, they only want to see what they want to see!"

Although Fatty Yan is not good at fighting, he was born as a businessman in his early years, so he still knows people's hearts very well.

To some extent, he is indeed a successful person, at least he does have some skills in controlling and guiding public opinion.

Sun Nan nodded slightly, and was about to leave, but when he reached the door, he was stopped by Fatty Yan.

"By the way, when recovering lost ground, if the Eighth Route Army robs us of territory, we will give it up to them. What we need to do now is to control public opinion and improve our status in the hearts of the people, so that we can plan big things!"

"Yes!" Sun Nan replied, then turned and left.

At the same time, Shancheng.

"Not bad, very good!" The bald head couldn't help but smack his lips in praise as he looked at the report in front of him.

"Wu Qianli is really a military genius, and this time he even wiped out a brigade of devils."

"Chen Cheng, if this matter were to be placed on you, would you be able to do it?"

Chen Cheng smiled and didn't answer, but his smile said everything.

In the case of a gap in troop strength, even he cannot guarantee that a brigade of devils will be wiped out.

"President, there has been news from Qiu Yu that he has arrived in Northwest Shanxi and has just left Luliang. It won't be long before he sees Wu Qianli."

"According to Wu Qianli's previous request, I don't think there should be any problems this time!"

The bald head nodded: "At the beginning, I thought Wu Qianli's request was too much."

"But now it seems that if you spend this little money to get back a general, it's worth the money."

"Tell me, if you wait for him to come over, will the major general and brigade commander be too low?"

Chen Cheng was taken aback for a moment, it was the first time he saw the bald head have such a reaction.

Major General Brigadier Commander, this officer is not small.

You must know that Wu Qianli is not a direct descendant of the bald head, and to be able to enjoy such treatment is already in the sky.

"President, I think this matter still needs to be discussed."

"In short, let Wu Qianli come over first, and it's not too late to discuss other things later!"

The bald head nodded, and looked out of the window meaningfully: "I hope everything will go well!"
