The boss said: "The King of Shanxi is not a good bird. What do you think we should do about this matter?"
The chief of staff's mood was also very complicated. He carefully weighed the pros and cons and said: "For the overall situation of the war of resistance, it is necessary to rescue the Jinsui Army and the Zhongyang Army. However, it is best for us not to come forward in this matter and leave it to Xu Dalong.
Let’s deal with it.”
The division commander also agreed with the chief of staff's opinion. He said: "This matter started because of Xu Dalong and others, and the only ones who can rescue the Jinsui Army are Xu Dalong and his troops. Let the King of Shanxi and General Fu communicate with Xu Dalong."
I believe that with Xu Dalong’s Zheng Ce level, he will be able to handle this matter well.”
After the three old presidents expressed their opinions, they sent telegrams to Shanxi Wang and General Fu, saying that the underground party resolutely maintained the united front. Currently, in the Hancheng area, only Xu Dalong's troops were present. The headquarters was currently unaware of the situation there. Please
Shanxi Wang and General Fu contacted Xu Dalong directly.
After sending the telegram, the boss said with some anticipation: "Xu Dalong has a smart mind, and Li Yunlong is not a boss who will suffer losses. I would like to see how the King of Shanxi and others shyly ask Xu Dalong and others for rescue, hahaha."
The chief of staff also said: "Xu Dalong and the others always deal with the Jinsui Army and the Zhongyang Army, and they always get a lot of money. This time it gives them a good opportunity to extort money. I'm afraid the King of Shanxi will cry."
The teacher said: "Although Xu Dalong is young, he has grasped the timing of many things just right. No matter how complicated the situation is, he can give us a good ending every time. This time I am also looking forward to seeing what the King of Shanxi will win in the end.
What conditions can be offered in exchange for Xu Dalong and the others going to the rescue?"
World War II District Governor's Department.
The Jinsui Army is the capital of the King of Shanxi. Without the Jinsui Army, he is nothing. Even if he goes to beg for food, no one will pay attention to him. Now the main force of the Jinsui Army is besieged by the Japanese army and is in danger. What he has to do now
That is to rescue the Jinsui Army troops at all costs.
For this Hancheng battle, the Jinsui Army in this area has been mobilized, and the troops in Zhongtiao Mountain are also fighting fiercely with the Japanese army. There is no hope at all. The only thing that can be counted on is the troops from the Mawushan Military Division to which Xu Dalong belongs.
, the King of Shanxi must ask Xu Dalong for help.
But he is really embarrassed now, thinking that when the Jinsui Army let go of the Japanese 112th Division, Xu Dalong and Li Yunlong were surrounded by the two main Japanese divisions at Niangziguan. At that critical moment, Xu Dalong once asked
He asked for help, but he ignored him. He even hoped that Xu Dalong and the others would fight to the death with the Japanese army so that he could reap the benefits.
Now the situation has been reversed. Unexpectedly, Xu Dalong and the others were so powerful in combat that they managed to break out of the siege even though they were surrounded by the two main divisions of the Japanese army. Not only that, they also basically preserved the integrity of the main force and did not produce any damage.
The result was a defeat for both sides with the Japanese army.
Now the situation was reversed. Seeing that the Jin-Sui Army was in danger, the King of Shanxi had no choice but to bite the bullet and come to Xu Dalong.
But he was the commander-in-chief of the World War II zone after all, so he couldn't help but ask the chief of staff to get in touch with Xu Dalong.
The chief of staff was also a little embarrassed, but compared with the dignity of rescuing the Jinsui Army, he sent a telegram to Xu Dalong, asking Xu Dalong to send troops to rescue the Jinsui Army.
Xu Dalong and Li Yunlong have received a telegram from their boss, asking them to rescue the Jinsui Army. The specific situation will be handled by them.
After Xu Dalong, Li Yunlong and others discussed it, they knew that it was necessary to rescue the Jinsui Army, but they could not be so cheap. They must give them a severe blackmail and wait until the Jinsui Army was at the end of its rope before helping them.
From now on, remember this painful lesson and never think of plotting against the underground party's anti-Japanese armed forces again.
After receiving the telegram from the Chief of Staff of the World War II Zone, Xu Dalong and Li Yunlong deliberately delayed for two hours before replying the telegram to the Chief of Staff.
The Chief of Staff of the World War II Zone is now like an ant on a hot pot. In the past two hours, he has not received a reply from Xu Dalong. The feeling is really painful.
He asked the radio station staff on duty to keep in touch with Xu Dalong and others at all times, and to send him a call back as soon as he received a call back from Xu Dalong.
Xu Dalong's telegram finally arrived. The telegram said: "The anti-Japanese armed forces of the underground party, the Shanxi-Sui Army, and the Zhongyang Army all belong to the Guo Army's order of battle, and they should rescue each other. Our department has received orders from the underground party headquarters.
, make every effort to rescue the Jinsui Army.
However, our army has just fought a fierce battle with the Japanese army at Niangziguan. It suffered heavy casualties and more than half of the losses. Weapons and ammunition have not been replenished, and the wounded cannot be resettled. The army is in urgent need of rest and recuperation. We hope that the Jinsui Army can persist for another three days and wait until the Mawushan Military Division in three days.
After the troops have been replenished, we can send troops to the direction of Hancheng to rescue the Jinsui Army."
The chief of staff was very depressed after reading the telegram, so he called the King of Shanxi who had been waiting for the news and told the King of Shanxi the contents of Xu Dalong's telegram.
The King of Shanxi became anxious when he heard this. He knew the combat effectiveness of his Jinsui Army very well. If he relied on solid defenses, he might be able to fight the Japanese army for a few more days. Now that they had just arrived in the Hancheng area, they did not have time.
If you build strong fortifications and fight against the main force of the Japanese army in an unfamiliar place, you may not be able to hold on for a whole day, let alone three days.
The King of Shanxi said anxiously: "How can this be done in three days? You should contact Xu Dalong immediately and ask him to send troops to rescue immediately."
The chief of staff said: "President, since Xu Dalong and others have the ability to break through the encirclement of the two main divisions of the Japanese army, they should be capable of fighting. By saying this, they are of course trying to shirk and deliberately make things difficult for us.
You also know the ins and outs of this matter. If we don't provide Xu Dalong and others with suitable conditions, I'm afraid we can't expect them to come to the rescue."
The King of Shanxi said: "I have long heard that Xu Dalong is greedy for money and needs money for everything he does. So I promised to give him 100,000 oceans and asked them to send troops to rescue him quickly."
The chief of staff said: "President, Xu Dalong and the others have suffered a lot of losses this time, and they have some objections to us. I'm afraid I won't be able to satisfy their appetite if I give them 100,000 yuan today. Do you think you can offer more favorable terms?"
?”
The King of Shanxi said: "You should take control of this matter. No matter what, let them send troops to rescue our Jinsui Army. You should get in touch with Xu Dalong as soon as possible. The sooner the better."
The chief of staff was a shrewd man. He understood the mood of the King of Shanxi and knew that as long as he could rescue the Jinsui Army at this time and make him pay more, he would agree.
But the King of Shanxi is a typical old-timer. If the price paid is too high, after the incident is over, he will feel distressed, find fault, and blame him, the chief of staff, for his poor performance.
Therefore, the chief of staff hoped to get Xu Dalong to send troops at the lowest price. He thought about it again and again, and felt that it was inappropriate for him to do so, as Xu Dalong would open his mouth.
He knew that Li Kun had a good relationship with Xu Dalong, so he immediately called Li Kun and said to him: "Quick, get in touch with Xu Dalong and ask him to send troops for rescue. As for what conditions he offers, you try your best to make them
Their appetite is smaller.
This is what the president means, do you understand?"
After listening to this, Li Kun felt dumbfounded. It was the King of Shanxi who had betrayed Xu Dalong, but now they were asking for help. At such a critical moment, it was a bit too much to think of paying less at such a critical moment.
After all, Li Kun is the general of the Jinsui Army, so when considering the problem, he still has to stand on the side of the Jinsui Army.
He said: "Come here, Xu Dalong and the others suffered heavy losses in this battle. I'm afraid it's not easy to talk to them. I'll try my best to persuade them, but there are some things I can't decide. I'll come to ask for your instructions when the time comes."
The chief of staff said: "I understand, please contact Xu Dalong immediately and report to me if there is any situation."
Li Kun hurriedly drafted a telegram and sent it to Xu Dalong.
In order to prevent Xu Dalong and others from being disgusted, Li Kun directly offered to give Xu Dalong and others 200,000 yuan in exchange for sending troops to rescue the Shanxi-Sui Army according to the wishes of the chief of staff.
After Li Kun sent the telegram, he did not wait for a reply from Xu Dalong. Instead, he received a call from Chu Yun'er, asking to meet Li Kun and saying that he had important matters to discuss with him.
Li Kun guessed that Chu Yun'er must have been instructed by Xu Dalong to send him a telegram directly. There were some things that were inconvenient to say, so he told him through Chu Yun'er.
He immediately agreed to Chu Yun'er's request and met Chu Yun'er quietly.
Chu Yun'er said: "Mr. Li, Brother Dalong sent me a telegram, saying that this time the Jinsui Army was sorry for the underground party's anti-Japanese armed forces. They lost 7,000 people this time. All the troops in the Mawushan Military Division were up and down.
, I hate the Jinsui Army's behavior of betraying friendly forces.
If the president cannot offer suitable conditions, he will not be able to convince the officers and soldiers of the underground party."
Li Kun nodded and said: "It is true that the Jinsui Army is sorry for Brother Dalong and the others, but now that the situation is urgent, we still hope that Brother Dalong and the others can lend a helping hand. What conditions did Brother Dalong offer?"
Chu Yun'er said: "500,000 yuan, a production line for mortar shells and a production line for imitation Type 79 rifle bullets."
After listening to this, Li Kun said with some embarrassment: "Brother Dalong's appetite is a bit too big. I can't explain this to the president."
Chu Yun'er said: "The reason why Brother Dalong asked me to communicate with you is because I don't want to embarrass you. Think about it, the chief of staff personally sent a telegram to Brother Dalong, but he rejected it.
If you can easily get Brother Dalong's consent, wouldn't it be a slap in the face to the chief of staff and the president? Although the president and chief of staff are hiring people now, they will think that you have the ability to do things.
But when this matter is over, they will definitely feel uncomfortable in their hearts. They will think that you are too close to Brother Dalong. Brother Dalong only gives you face, not them, and he will definitely give you some shoes when the time comes.
"
When Li Kun heard this, he immediately broke into a cold sweat. He originally wanted to help the Jinsui Army achieve its goal, but Chu Yun'er's words really made sense. Li Kun's face could not be greater than that of the Chief of Staff.
and the president, otherwise, you will definitely be unlucky in the future.
He said: "Thank you Brother Dalong and Miss Chu for thinking about me, brother. What exactly does Brother Dalong mean? How should I reply to the Chief of Staff?"
Chu Yun'er said: "What Brother Dalong means is that he proposed to let the company grow 1 million yuan and add those two production lines.
If you report this condition truthfully, the president and chief of staff will definitely disagree and will ask you to continue communicating with Brother Dalong. When the time comes, Brother Dalong will give in and let the president give 500,000 yuan and those two production lines.
.You can then explain it to the president and chief of staff."
Li Kun figured out what Xu Dalong meant and knew that this would be the most beneficial thing for him.
He said gratefully: "Brother Dalong is very considerate. Please inform Brother Dalong to send the telegram directly to the confidential room. I will go back and wait for the telegram."
Li Kun returned to the office and called the confidential office, asking them to notify him immediately after receiving Xu Dalong's telegram.
Not long after, Xu Dalong responded to the telegram, and Li Kun took the telegram to see the chief of staff and said with shame: "I'm sorry, Chief of Staff, you are humble and incompetent. Xu Dalong doesn't give me face, and the conditions he offered are really unacceptable.
"
After reading the telegram, the chief of staff said angrily: "This Xu Dalong has gone too far. Isn't this a lion's mouth? The president will definitely not agree."
Li Kun said: "It's just that Xu Dalong is not a friend enough. We usually take so much care of him, but for him to open his mouth at this critical moment is simply too much. I sent a telegram to reject him."
The chief of staff was shocked when he heard this. At this moment, he was waiting for Xu Dalong to come to save his life. How could Li Kun refuse Xu Dalong?
He said: "Wait a moment, I will ask the president for instructions."
The king of Shanxi received a call from the chief of staff and was so angry that he cursed.
The conditions Xu Dalong offered made him very distressed. But now the Jinsui Army is in danger. If the troops are gone, he will become a bare commander and have nothing. As long as the troops are there, he will have territory, and he will not worry about not being able to collect money.
He calculated this account very shrewdly and would never give up his old base, Jinsui Army, just because of money.
He scolded Xu Dalong a few more times and said to the chief of staff: "We can't let Xu Dalong speak loudly. You continue to negotiate with him and ask him to lower his conditions again."
After the chief of staff put down the phone, he said to Li Kun: "We must let Xu Dalong send troops no matter what, but the conditions he offered are too high. You can communicate with him again and ask him to lower the conditions."
Li Kun said: "I understand, I will send a telegram to Xu Dalong right now."
An hour later, Li Kun came to see the chief of staff with Xu Dalong's reply call.
