"Sir, I would like to personally go to the 354th Regiment to help the 354th Regiment defect to the Imperial Army!" A young Zuo stood up from his chair and said with confidence.
Da Zuo, who was sitting in the main seat, did not answer the call. He thought about it for a while before asking: "What conditions are you going to give them?"
Shao Zuo was already prepared. He picked up the information prepared in advance on the table and said: "Intelligence shows that the 354th Regiment of the Shanxi-Sui Army has 2,000 men. In addition to mortars and heavy machine guns, it is also equipped with a mountain artillery company!"
"A regiment of the Imperial Army has about a thousand people, equipped with a mortar platoon..."
"The current strength and equipment of the 354th Regiment can be transformed into two regiments of the Imperial Association Army!"
"I want to give them one more regiment and expand the 354th Regiment into a security brigade..."
"Give them some more weapons and equipment, and promise them that the current defense area will still be under their management, but a reinforced squadron of imperial troops will be stationed to supervise the battle!"
"At the same time, two infantry brigades were deployed from the nearby garrison to attack the 354th Regiment on the left and right to let them feel the determination of the imperial army to eliminate them!"
"This way, great things can be accomplished!"
Seeing Da Zuo frowning and lost in thought again, Shao Zuo continued his analysis: "The three directions around the independent regiment's base are occupied by the imperial army, and the last direction happens to be guarding the 354th Regiment!"
"If we can capture the 354th Regiment quickly, the base area of the Independent Regiment will be completely surrounded by us, and we can implement an economic blockade on them more thoroughly!"
The attack on the Shanxi-Sui Army in northwestern Shanxi was just an act of revenge by the military. By the way, to give an explanation, the ultimate goal is to block the Eighth Route Army in northwestern Shanxi, restrict their development, and create conditions for another raid on northwestern Shanxi in the future.
As soon as Shaozuo mentioned the blockade of the independent regiment, Dazuo made a decision in his heart and gave a serious order: "I can give the 354th Regiment a brigade establishment, and I can also provide them with weapons and ammunition to expand their troops. But the emperor who enters their defense area
The army must be increased to an infantry brigade!"
"Defenses can not do without!"
"The 354th Regiment dared to sell Eighth Route Army weapons in the World War II area without telling us, and maybe they dared to continue to liaise with the Independent Regiment without telling us, and continue to resell weapons and ammunition!"
"I don't want us to spend all our efforts and end up raising a white-eyed wolf!"
"We must send a force that they are afraid of to station under their noses, keep an eye on them, monitor them, and prevent them from doing stupid things that are not conducive to the imperial army!"
Shao Zuo was very confident about this mission. After Da Zuo finished speaking, he assured with a serious look on his face: "Please rest assured, sir, I will definitely live up to expectations and successfully recruit the 354th Regiment!"
As soon as he sat down, another young man standing next to him stood up from his chair: "Sir, the 1st Battalion of the 358th Regiment, who is responsible for contacting me, has also responded with news!"
"The 358th Regiment is a strengthened regiment, with 5,000 troops... The first battalion is their absolute main force, with a total strength of more than 2,000 people. It has its own independent artillery company and heavy machine gun company, and its combat effectiveness is very strong!"
"The Lijia Town where the First Battalion is stationed is also very coincidental. It is like a nail stuck between the New Second Regiment and the 358th Regiment."
"If they are incorporated, the imperial army can cut off the connection between the New Second Regiment and the 358th Regiment, divide them, surround and blockade them!"
"But this Qian Bojun relies on his large numbers and strong troops and horses. The World War II area trusts them very much. He has sufficient supplies of ammunition and charges a very high price. He is in a humble position and cannot make decisions on his own!"
"What does he want? Be specific?" Da Zuo didn't want to hear this nonsense and asked directly!
"Add 20,000 yuan to the establishment of a brigade and you will find the ocean!" Shao Zuo replied!
"We are not allowed to interfere with his troops... He said that the troops are his foundation in troubled times, and he must be in his own hands to feel at ease!"
"Sir, this Qian Bojun really dares to open his mouth like a lion!" the deputy sitting on the left side of the seat said dissatisfiedly.
"Although he has 2,000 men and guns, he is only a battalion commander after all...he asked us for the establishment of a brigade, and he was not afraid of pushing himself to death!"
"Sir, I think Qian Bojun is too arrogant. We can never agree to these conditions."
Compared with the anger of his deputy, Da Zuo seemed much calmer. He sighed and replied: "Qian Bojun is right!"
"In this troubled world, the army is the foundation for his foothold."
"If I don't have troops in hand, even if the opponent is a brigade commander, I won't bother to look at him!"
"With two thousand men and guns, the combat effectiveness is still very strong. It is reasonable to ask us to organize a brigade, and it is not a big deal!"
"Keep talking to him!"
"I can give him a brigade, and I can also provide him with weapons and ammunition to expand his troops. But the ocean he wants must be reduced to 5,000 yuan!"
"We can also stay away from his troops and not deploy manpower to his troops, but we must accept an infantry brigade stationed in Lijia Town and defend Lijia Town with him."
"As long as Qian Bojun agrees, the imperial army's appointment letter, the ocean to compensate him, and the weapons and ammunition promised to him will be delivered to Lijia Town as soon as possible!"
At the headquarters of the 354th Regiment, Captain Zhou locked himself in a room and thought about ways to break the situation. There was a piece of paper on the table, which was filled with his connections in the theater headquarters. He analyzed who had the ability to help him and needed to be sent out.
How many benefits…
The whole morning has passed, and my mind is still a mess with no clue.
Just when he was in panic all day long, a deputy battalion commander under his command suddenly walked in mysteriously: "Regiment leader, I have an emergency report to you!"
"As you know, I have a relative working in the hands of the Japanese..."
"Yesterday he suddenly came to me and said that the Japanese want to see you!"
"You said that only they can solve the dilemma of the 354th Regiment!"
"As long as the regiment leader is willing to see him, there will be no problems with the future ammunition supply of the 354th Regiment!"
"The Japanese want to see me!" Captain Zhou was confused.
I am a Chinese, the leader of the 354th Regiment of the Jinsui Army, and a person who specializes in fighting Japanese enemies. No matter how you analyze it, both sides are opponents, and there is no reason to come to see you.
Subconsciously I wanted to refuse.
But when the words reached his lips, he swallowed them back.
He had been thinking about the ammunition supply for the 354th Regiment all morning, but he didn't have any clue.
If you are in a hurry and seek medical treatment, since the Japanese say that they have a way to help you solve your problem, then listen to it. If it doesn't work, it's not too late to drive it away!
After a while, Shao Zuo, a young devil in casual clothes, appeared in front of Captain Zhou.
Both sides looked at each other, but neither spoke.
I don’t know how long it took, but the Jaap Shaozuo who was eager to recruit the 354th Regiment spoke first: "Captain Zhou, I am from the Special High School, and I came to see you on the order of the superior!"
"Our next conversation may need to be kept secret. I wonder if Captain Zhou has the guts to step aside!"
Captain Zhou wanted to quickly solve the dilemma of the 354th Regiment. He made sure that the opponent did not carry weapons and could not threaten his safety, so he decisively drove his subordinates out of the war room.
"Can we talk now?" Captain Zhou asked expectantly.
"I heard that you have a way to solve the dilemma of the 3, 5, and 4 regiments. Let me tell you... If the method works, even if you are Japanese, I will reward you heavily!"
"The method is very simple..." Guizi Shaozuo said bluntly.
"From now on, we will provide all the ammunition supplies for your army, and Commander Zhou can have as much as he wants!
"
"You are providing me with ammunition... How is this possible? You are the invaders, I am Chinese, and the two sides are mortal enemies. How can you provide us with ammunition supplies? Are you crazy..." Captain Zhou asked in disbelief.
When he was about to continue talking, a bold idea quickly flashed in his mind, and then he said with a look of realization: "I know, you want me to join you and become a traitor!"
"This is impossible, don't even think about it!"
"I am a staunch Chinese, and I will never bear the reputation of being a traitor!"
"Get out of here quickly, or I'll call someone to kick you out!"
The expression on Guizi Shaozuo's face was calm. He seemed to have expected what Commander Zhou would say. He was not angry but said happily: "Besides joining the Imperial Army of Japan, Commander Zhou thinks there is any other way out for him!"
"You used to have secret connections with the independent group and resell weapons... Although the World War II Zone did not hold you accountable."
"But if the Independent Regiment continues to grow in northwestern Shanxi and the World War II Zone Command sees the danger, this matter will definitely be brought up again. At that time, it will be useless no matter how much ocean you send to the war zone!"
"Even if the World War II Zone no longer embarrasses you over this matter..."
"Do you think the 354th Regiment can continue to exist with the few weapons and ammunition issued by the World War II zone?"
"Let me tell you another piece of news. The ammunition sold by the 354th Regiment to the Independent Regiment caused a large number of casualties to the Imperial Army during the raids. The military commander was furious and strictly ordered us to kill the chickens to scare the monkeys..."
"Captain Zhou is the chicken that the military minister named to kill. If Commander Zhou does not accept the adaptation, two brigades of imperial troops will attack you immediately!"
"Does Commander Zhou think that the 354th Regiment can block the front and rear attacks from the two infantry brigades of the Imperial Army?"
"As long as Commander Zhou is willing to join us and accept our adaptation, the military headquarters will immediately expand the 354th Regiment into a security brigade, with three security regiments under its jurisdiction, and Commander Zhou will be promoted to brigade commander!"
"We will not place one of our own in the garrison brigade, nor will we take away your military power. As long as you agree to allow a large group of imperial troops to be stationed in your defense area!"
"We can also provide you with some weapons and ammunition to help expand the army...and give you an ocean reward of three thousand yuan..."
"If I remember correctly: when I set out, the two infantry brigades responsible for attacking the 354th Regiment also sent troops!"
"If no news is received before three o'clock in the afternoon that the 354th Regiment has accepted the reorganization, the two brigades will launch an attack at the same time..."
"Time is limited. Please consider this matter carefully, Captain Zhou, and make a decision as soon as possible!"
Captain Zhou had already stirred up huge waves in his mind. He did not expect that he would be valued by the Japanese, and he would take action with the establishment of a brigade!
To be honest, when he heard the word brigade commander, his heart began to beat. This chapter has been completed!
