If Yan Laoxi knew about it, the problem would become serious, and there might be civil strife again.

Of course, the reason why Li Yunlong dared to ask such a question was that Yang Chen was a person who was devoted to the people and even a little pro-communist.

It's just that Yang Chen's answer made Li Yunlong slightly astonished: "As long as we resolutely fulfill our mission, defend our home and country, and drive out the Japanese invaders; as for whether it is the national army or the Eighth Route Army, does it matter that much?"

Just when Li Yunlong was extremely disappointed, Yang Chen let him see a glimmer of hope: "Brother, if there is a chance, I don't mind joining the Eighth Route Army, but the opportunity must be right."

Li Yunlong was overjoyed: "Brother, I'll wait for you! If you are willing to join our Eighth Route Army, I can give you the position of head of the new regiment."

After speaking, Li Yunlong lowered his head again. Yang Chen could even refuse Yan Laoxi's commendation from Lieutenant General and Brigadier Commander without blinking his eyes. It seems that his condition is not so attractive.

Not only is it unattractive, it's even downright shabby.

……

On the other hand, after Huo Zhengyun, head of the 14th Army Guard Regiment, sent the situation to the military headquarters in a telegram, Army Commander Li Mo'an immediately agreed to his request and approved the guard regiment to go to Wutai County together with the 358th Regiment Guard Battalion to prevent the first The army's flank attack.

At the same time, the Second War Zone Commander's Department also approved Yang Chen's request to fight, and appointed Yang Chen as the commander-in-chief of the front enemy in Wutai County.

The Japanese First Army had already marched towards Wutai County with the 358th Guard Battalion one day ahead of schedule, and now they are racing against time.

Therefore, after some adjustments, the coalition army, led by Yang Chen and Huo Zhengyun, marched all the way to Wutai County, hundreds of miles southeast of Datong.

Chapter 301 Going to Wutai County

Datong had already been completely occupied by the Japanese army long before Yang Chen led the guard battalion from the Yellow River Ferry. Therefore, the army did not meet a single person along the way, and the villages they passed were almost empty. It was also occupied by wild boars that came down from the mountain as a nest.

Wutai County is located in the northeast of Shanxi Province, with the tall and straight Taihang Mountains to the east, bordering Hebei.

300 miles southwest of it is the main battlefield of Xinkou, where the fighting is most intense at the moment.

In the north of Wutai County, there are dozens of hills of different sizes. I don't know whether it is due to excessive felling or drought and lack of rain. There are not many trees on the mountains, and they are not big.

Sparse and not even usable for Tibetans.

The first Japanese army marched from Heihu Gorge to Wutai County, and the northern mountainous area of ​​Wutai Mountain was their only pass.

The city wall of Wutai County was low and could not withstand the Japanese artillery bombardment at all. If this place was used as a barrier to the north of Wutai County, if it was lost, it would mean that the north gate of Wutai County would be wide open, and the loss of the county would become inevitable.

If Wutai County fell, the Japanese army could drive straight through Wutai County and reach the main battlefield of Xinkou; they could even bypass the back of the Chinese army and stab them in the back.

Therefore, the strategic location of Wutai County is particularly important.

Now stationed in Wutai County is Wen Xiansheng, the security commander, with only two squadrons of more than 1000 security teams.

Regarding the upcoming transfer of the guard battalion of the 358th Regiment of the Jinsui Army to take over the task of urban defense in Wutai County, he has already received an order.

So when Yang Chen and the others led the troops to Wutai County, Commander Wen had already brought some left-behind officials from the county out of the city to greet them and waited for a long time.

"Everyone, who is Consultant Yang?" Wen Xiansheng saw the troops coming, and immediately went up to greet them, and asked with a smile.

Because Yang Chen's title of tactical advisor in the second war zone was far more prestigious than the title of commander of the 358th regiment's guard battalion, so except for the soldiers of the guard company, most people would call him Advisor Yang.

"I am Yang Chen, are you?" Yang Chen asked.

"I am Wen Xiansheng, the security commander of Wutai County. I have received instructions from Shangfeng, and I am here to welcome Consultant Yang and the soldiers of your ministry. From now on, I, the garrison brigade of Wutai County, and Consultant Yang, you follow the lead and follow orders. From!" Wang Gongyu said with a smile.

In addition to flattery, there is also flattery.

You know, even though Yang Chen's tactical advisor is just a vacant position, his power is so great that he has the right to order and instruct any unit in the entire second theater.

Moreover, Yang Chen is the celebrity of Yan Laoxi, the commander-in-chief of the Second War Zone. It is said that Chief Yan intended to promote him, but he rejected him.

After the reasons for the refusal were exposed, it was even more admirable!

Chief Yan was not angry either, but admired Yang Chen even more, and promised that his reward would always be kept for him, and whenever he wanted it, he could go to him at any time.

This matter was also passed on as a good story.

Of course, the most important thing was because of Yang Chen's military talent, he repeatedly defeated the many with the few, and the strong with the weak.

Reversing a series of defeats that are impossible to reverse in the eyes of others!

His military exploits are unprecedented!

As far as the current situation is concerned, in the entire Chinese military circle, there is no one whose combat ability is superior to the right, not even comparable.

If you have a good relationship with Yang Chen now, will you still worry about not getting any benefits in the future?

"Oh, it turned out to be Commander Wen, nice to meet you." Yang Chen saluted with a serious expression, and then said, "Since that's the case, please ask Commander Wen to mobilize all the people in the city to help us build the fortifications!"

Wen Xiansheng looked distressed: "This, please forgive me for being powerless. Due to geographical reasons, Wutai County was bombed by the Japanese army many times before, and the people in the city have long since fled. Therefore, I am afraid that this order from Advisor Yang will not be completed! "

"Since this is the case, please ask Commander Wen to lead all the security personnel to build fortifications with our department. It is better for the people to leave. We have no worries. Once the Japanese army invades, we will go all out to fight against the Japanese invaders!" Yang Chen said.

"Consultant Yang means the devils will attack Wutai County?" Wen Xiansheng said somewhat disapprovingly.

At the beginning, he only received an order from Shangfeng, saying that Yang Chen was here to take over the security team of Wutai County, but he didn't know the specific reason at all.

"At present, the fierce battle in Xinkou is in full swing, and our army has defeated the fifth division of the Japanese army. In order to reverse the situation, the Japanese army has increased its troops in large numbers, and sent the first army to Xinkou successively, but was intercepted by my troops in Datong. .

Subsequently, the No.14 Division was dispatched to replace the First Army and continue to attack Datong.

And the first army that was withdrawn from Heihu Gorge is going to take a detour to Wutai County, and intends to take a detour to Xinkou from here to stab the back of my army in the second theater! "Yang Chen responded coldly.

"Consultant Yang, is your news accurate?" Wen Xiansheng frowned and asked.

"Do you think I'm going to joke with you about this?"

Wen Xiansheng was a little angry when he saw that Yang Chen, Huo Zhengyun and the others looked unfriendly.He hurriedly smiled and apologized: "Consultant Yang is justified, and what he said is justified. Counselor Yang is a famous anti-Japanese national hero and the favorite general of Chief Yan, but he has an assignment, and Wen will strictly implement it!

Immediately, I will assemble my staff to be on call at any time, waiting for your instructions from Consultant Yang, and I can do whatever you say! "

Only then was Yang Chen a little satisfied, nodded and said: "Then please Commander Wen to act quickly, and build the fortifications earlier, so that we can guard Wutai County with peace of mind and live up to the expectations of Shangfeng!"

"Yes!" Wen Xiansheng immediately saluted in a dignified manner, and then called all the subordinate officials behind him to go back and assemble their hands.

Not long after, more than 1000 members of the Wutai County Security Brigade were assembled, and together with the 358th Regiment Guard Battalion and the 14th Army Guard Regiment, a total of more than 3000 people began to build fortifications in the northern mountainous area of ​​Wutai County.

As for the city defense in Wutai County, it was directly abandoned by Yang Chen.

After all, as long as the northern mountainous area is defended, Wutai County will be impenetrable, and if the northern mountainous area is lost, the city defense of Wutai County will be like a piece of thin paper under the Japanese artillery fire, and there is no need to guard it at all.

Yang Chen personally commanded the soldiers to dig trenches, foxholes, air-raid shelters and other fortifications in strict accordance with his requirements in the northern mountainous area of ​​Wutai County.
