Comrade, Your Ingredients Are Too Complicated

Chapter 195 Why are things in the south always so bad?

After repeated blows, Chu Yunfei had to admit that he, an outstanding graduate of the fifth batch of Huangpu, was completely defeated by a grassroots man who had never even attended a martial arts school.

Out of pride, he ended the exchange trip hastily. Li Zhao and Li wanted to arrange paratrooper training, so naturally they didn't stop them.

Looking at the back of the New Second Regiment gradually leaving the New Second Regiment under the **** of the guard platoon, Zhao Gang said with interest:

"Old Li, why do I feel that this Ge Chu Yunfei wants to recruit you? But he is quite interesting, and he is different from the generals of the Jinsui Army that I have come into contact with before."

"I can clearly feel the other party's determination to resist Japan. In a sense, I am also a tiger general for him."

Hearing what his political commissar said, Commander Li nodded. Generally speaking, Chu Yunfei was quite satisfied with it, otherwise he would not have changed his attitude.

The other party’s intention to recruit is quite obvious, but it’s just because of the unequal strength between the two parties. In this case, solicitation is simply asking for humiliation.

“Our strength has grown by leaps and bounds, which is not a good thing for those friendly forces. If our Eighth Route Army hadn’t always been at odds with the Japs, they would have stabbed us in the back again.”

“I can finally see it. Yan Laoxi’s purpose is to make both us and the enemy lose, and then he can reap the benefits.”

“This way we can not only regain the lost ground, but also avoid the reputation of being a quarrel. I can only say that he is indeed a master of existentialism, and his little calculations are rattling in his heart.”

What Li Yunlong can see, Zhao Gang naturally understands.

The headquarters approved the exchange plan of the Jinsui Army. To put it bluntly, we must take advantage of every opportunity, even if it is extremely unlikely, we must try to win over allies.

 Uniting all forces that can be united is the purpose that has been implemented since the outbreak of war.

The Jinsui Army wanted to take advantage of the Eighth Route Army, but so did its own side.

 With confidence in his own strength, the deputy commander's response is to defeat all methods with one force! He was ready to take back all the lost land in Jin Province before Yan Laoxi changed his mind.

It is absolutely impossible for the 50,000 Jinsui Army to defend all areas. In the worst case, let's give up Taiyuan. It's not a particularly important strategic location anyway.

Unlike Fang Ligong, who was short-sighted, Zhao Gang had already seen the weakness of the little devil after the Hundred Regiment Battle, and also saw the dawn of victory.

 For the enemy, if they cannot make ends meet, they will collapse sooner or later. The weak counterattack in the third stage has exposed everything.

“After driving away the Japs, the two armies must have a battle. It is a battle that will determine the future, and it is also a battle of different ideas.”

"Okay, Lao Zhao, don't think too much. Where are we now? We still have a long way to go."

"good"

　　——

　　Perspective Returning to the border area, Huang He has been almost dying of worry these days.

As a traveler, he began to prepare for war even before he left the Dabie Mountains. From 1927 to now, he can honestly say that he has always been working hard.

 But there is one thing that is really not easy to deal with.

 Why things in Spain are always so bad? This sentence can be applied to the New Fourth Army to a certain extent.

 It doesn’t matter if a person is extremely strong inside, even if he is temporarily weak. They will seize every opportunity to enrich themselves and strive to become stronger, and one day they will launch a fatal blow to the enemy.

 This is why the Eighth Route Army was able to develop from 40,000 people when it crossed the Yellow River eastward to a force of more than 300,000 people in four years.

  The intrusion of the Yellow River only made the troops live better and their combat effectiveness became stronger.

Even without him, the comrades could still make their way under difficult conditions and eventually drive away the invaders.

Of course we have to admit that the smooth development is partly influenced by regional factors.

 After all, most of Jin Province is an occupied area, and the Eighth Route Army's three major base areas were all taken from the enemy. It's always right to fight the Japanese. It's my own ability to open up a base.

 Those who have problems internally and are still weak externally. No matter how you help him, the most you can do is to breathe a sigh of relief.

 This can be seen from the development of the army. From 1937 to the present, the strength of the New Fourth Army has grown relatively slowly.

However, this does not affect Huanghe's preparation of supplies for them. Those are soldiers who have survived three years of brutal guerrilla war. Many of them are veterans of hundreds of battles who have broken through several layers of blockades.

 As long as they have advanced weapons, they will definitely be able to cause greater trouble to the Japanese in Central China.

What's more, after fighting in the deep mountains and forests for so long, it's time to live an old life. In the past, the distance was far and there were no conditions, but now we can provide full assistance!

As for the rest, it depends on God’s will. Anyway, the worst result is that it cannot be destroyed or established.

Thinking of this, Huang He left his room and went straight to the director's office. After entering the door, he didn't talk nonsense and went straight to the point to explain his purpose.

“Old Zeng, how much stock of light weapons does the border area have now, and how many troops can be armed at once?”

Looking at Huang He being so serious, he lost the cynicism of the past. Without saying a word, the director took out his notepad from the drawer and started looking at it. The tacit understanding between the two was clearly evident.

"There are only more than 50,000 rifles left, mainly because a batch was used for redemption some time ago. There are 2,300 light machine guns, which are enough to support three normally organized division-level units."

“However, there are a few submachine guns and heavy machine guns. After all, the production line has only been established not long ago. There are a thousand of the former in the warehouse and four hundred of the latter.”

“There are definitely enough bullets for all firearms, and it will be no problem to fight another hundred-regiment battle. There is no shortage of two types of grenades, and we have plenty of them.”

“However, the number of grenades and 60mm mortars is somewhat small. Although our bureau has mastered the technology of producing seamless steel pipes, it is a pity that the focus of recent work is on heavy machine guns.”

The result made Huang He take a breath of cold air. He didn't expect that his side had become so strong without knowing it. The current inventory was the result of throwing away the wartime losses.

This number seems unremarkable, but compared with the production capacity of the Republic of China, it is already extraordinary.

 According to historical records, the eight years from 1937 to 1945. A total of 803,000 rifles were lost in various war zones, with an average annual loss of about 100,000 rifles.

Excluding our own forces, the production capacity of Preserved Fruit can only guarantee the replenishment of 70,000 rifles per year, which means that there is still a gap of 30,000 that requires international assistance.

Now the Eighth Route Army Logistics Department in southeastern Shanxi, the Military Industry Bureau in the border areas, plus the military factories in the Yellow River system can exceed the entire preserved fruit production capacity.

Even the three arsenals of Taiyuan, Fengtian, and Jinling at their peak cannot compare with each other, and they can all be targeted for key attacks on the European battlefield.

 Looking at the stunned Huang He, the director showed a satisfied smile.

“You should be preparing to support the south, right? Use the sky train you mentioned?”

"I remember you said that the next batch of planes will arrive in the border area on December 23. Calculating this, there are still some things to do. We can also seize the time to produce more heavy machine guns and mortars. "The overall number of weapons and ammunition can be a few percent more , then it will depend on the air force’s carrying efficiency. "

It saves trouble to deal with smart people. You don’t even need to explain things clearly, and the other person will understand what you mean.

To support the plan in the south, Huanghe had communicated with his superiors as early as the day he returned to the border area. Even if there are some differences in ideas, the palms and backs of the hands are still flesh.

 If we have the ability to support, there is no reason to save those weapons.

"Okay! I'll leave the production to you. I'll discuss the transportation route with the First Air Division. This is a troublesome matter."

 The area of ​​the Republic of China was really huge. The straight-line distance from the border area to southern Anhui was more than 1,200 kilometers.

Although the range of the Spitfire fighter and the C47 transport aircraft with auxiliary fuel tanks meet the needs, except for the six combat heroes, the remaining warriors are still less experienced in driving. It is best to arrange a transfer on the way.

 Fortunately, Huanghe had taken precautions and had already considered the logistical issues of inter-provincial operations.

 When he unlocked the decision of "30 Million Aircraft Yulong", he spread the arrangements for building field airports to the base areas in each province.

Now you just need to choose a relatively safe route. After all, you would never have imagined that there is already an air force in the border area, and transport aircraft can even be used to support friendly forces across levels.

What's more, their land aviation needs to save fuel and will not patrol when there is nothing wrong.

　　——

 The southwest capital, in a luxurious manor.

At this time, Guangtou was happily drinking boiled water. Recently, the international status of preserved fruits has reached a peak, which made him feel extremely good.

　　After receiving three heavy blows from the red in North China when I was young, I have become deeply aware that I am trapped in the quagmire of war and cannot escape.

Unable to monetize the occupied territories, they are now eager to end the war with China.

To show goodwill, the Japanese even withdrew their troops from Longzhou and Nanning.

But Baldhead has been delaying, because the current situation in the world has evolved into the Allied Powers, led by Britain and the United States, against the Axis Powers, led by Germany, Italy and Japan.

The two camps are in constant conflict, and people's brains are almost turned into dog brains.

 The Asian battlefield is very important to both sides, related to the colonies of the Allied Powers and the offensive options of the Axis Powers. Once Xiaori escapes from the battlefield of the Republic of China, the threat posed will not be something that the Allies can bear.

 In view of the above situation, both camps are taking out practical benefits to fight for the Republic of China. As a veteran who has been in the stock market for many years, he must wait for the price.

However, Bald Head already had the final choice in mind. He asked Xiaori to return the area currently occupied, and at most allow the other party to return to the state before 1937.

Such harsh conditions are unacceptable. It is impossible to give up easily after finally reaching the inland. If we withdraw our troops directly, those crazy low-level soldiers will definitely go berserk.

 When things develop like this, Baldhead can only hug Dai Ying and Chou Guo's thighs tightly.

 But these true thoughts must not be known to the Allies. If his firm determination to resist Japan became known to others, then aid would definitely be reduced. Wouldn't he be at the mercy of others just like Ze Sheng in later generations?

But the preserved fruit can wait, but the bearded man can’t wait. He knows his own family affairs well, and he has no idea when facing his eager neighbors.

 I learned that Mustache is taking the lead in preparing to mediate the war, and the book seems to be quite sincere. He immediately sent two waves of aid supplies, just to stabilize the bald head and prevent others from investing.

That little day was rabies, and once the consequences of the German -day pinch were unimaginable.

 The essence of all this has been seen through by the Wolf of Huangpu River. He even had time to remind Dai Ying to mind his own business on the European continent.

Thinking of this, the bald man smiled brightly, as if he had everything under control. He looked like a sunny and cheerful boy, looking at the busy secretary beside him.

"Okay, don't read the news about Soviet-German relations. They are all fake. The north has no confidence now, otherwise it would not be so anxious to transport supplies to us."

“If the relationship between the two parties is really good, there is no need to tell others hypocritically. You must know that they made a lot of money secretly in the past. We also appeared on the same stage with the Eighth Route Army. Is the relationship between the two parties good?”

"No matter how the situation develops, we will have a large number of new weapons. Through the negotiations in the past few days, I even obtained air force assistance. Now there is no real need to cooperate with the Desperate Fox."

This view made several secretaries and staff nod. It is essentially impossible for both parties to be intimate.

 In the past, we had to join forces when we had a common enemy, but now we have strong reinforcements and can naturally kick them away.

But it’s not too good to completely break the relationship now. After all, public opinion is also a considerable force, but we must strictly prevent the other party from growing stronger, not to mention that they also made a big move in the south some time ago.

No one here thought of one thing, that is, they themselves were not authentic. It was obviously a joint war of resistance, but Guo Preserved insisted on delineating a prescribed defense zone for the New Fourth Army.

This land is surrounded by the Central Army on three sides, and the Japanese on the other side are across the river. Isn't it Sima Zhao's intention that everyone knows?

 A few months ago, when the first and second detachments of the New Fourth Army went north to establish a base in northern Jiangsu, they had some minor friction with the local defenders.

Due to the poor combat effectiveness of the defenders, they were ultimately defeated.

However, in Guo Mao's view, it was the New Fourth Army that made the first move. People like them don't care about the causes and processes, they always only see the results.

　　The mention of southern bald men makes him unhappy, and he has also heard the recent calls from the army. Thinking again of the Hundred Regiment War launched by the Eighth Route Army in North China, the 105 regiments made everyone fearful.

After thinking for a moment, he walked to a defense map of the troops in Central China and looked at the position of southern Anhui with a fierce look on his face.

 Although his military level is average, he can still see the basic situation clearly. A large number of troops on the other side broke away and were deeply surrounded by our own side.

“Aren’t there nearly ten thousand of them here? I really don’t know what those people think? Do they have to leave me a big dumpling to eat?”

“Send the order! Let the Commander-in-Chief of the Third Theater Zone and the Commander-in-Chief of the 32nd Army Group be ready! Mobilize troops at any time to prepare for encirclement and annihilation!”

Sigh, I have to rewrite more than half of the 4,000 words, which is really annoying.

A small plot was directly scrapped and could only be brushed off.

There is one chapter left in the early morning, so I will continue writing.

 (End of this chapter)
