Chu Yunfei also knew that it was impossible for Taiyuan to come back... It was still possible to get to Yuncheng before. Yuncheng was special. It was at the forefront of the confrontation with the Japanese. The Eighth Route Army could use Yuncheng to exchange with the Jinsui Army to push the Jinsui Army to
The Eighth Route Army was fighting the Japs on the front line. From this aspect, the Eighth Route Army was able to kill two birds with one stone. It could profit from transactions and use the Jinsui Army to defend Yuncheng and consume the Japs.
But Taiyuan is different. Taiyuan is the hinterland of Shanxi and has a lot of industrial and mineral resources. It is the "divine needle" of the entire Shanxi. How could the Eighth Route Army give it away?
This problem is actually caused by Chongqing.
When Chongqing heard that the Eighth Route Army actually captured Taiyuan and captured Okamura Neiji alive, they couldn't help but cursed fiercely: "Mother Xipi, I tried so hard to let the Japanese fight with the Eighth Route Army so that I could sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight. I didn't expect it."
It also allowed the Eighth Route Army to make great contributions and gain momentum!"
When Okamura Neiji was captured, the Chongqing authorities were most shocked.
It doesn't feel like the sun never sets, because what they care about is not the Chinese battlefield.
Hawk-chan just thinks this is great. After all, the Japanese are also Hawk-chan's enemies, but they are more interested in the upgrade of helicopters and artillery detection radars... As for Okamura Neiji, if this general is captured, there will soon be another general.
At the end of the day, it doesn't change the overall battle situation.
The stubborn army is different.
Having fought against the Japanese for a long time, they knew how difficult it was to deal with them. Not long ago, they were completely defeated by the Japanese in the Battle of Henan, Hunan, and Guangxi. In the end, although there was a deliberate attempt to let go, the stubborn troops asked themselves if this battle continued like this.
It was only a matter of time before the Japanese opened up the transportation lines.
The stubborn army was so frightened by the Japanese that they almost knelt down to beg the Japanese in this battle... This is really not an exaggeration. Someone within the stubborn army proposed to lobby the Japanese, saying that the Japanese still had a powerful enemy like Eagle Sauce in the Pacific.
Why bother to keep an eye on China? China can temporarily make a truce with the Japs in a default state so that the Japs can concentrate their forces against Yingjiang!
Trying to persuade the enemy to concentrate on dealing with one's allies on the battlefield is a cunning maneuver that only stubborn soldiers can do.
This can only be said that when a person's fear reaches the extreme, no vision, no great righteousness, no common interests matter.
Precisely because they are extremely afraid of the Japanese, the Japanese are like invincible gods in the eyes of these people.
However, in the blink of an eye, the gods in their hearts were defeated by the Eighth Route Army, and the defeat was so miserable that even General Okamura Neiji, the commander of the North China Front, was captured alive.
The shock this gave them was unparalleled, no less than when they lost to the Japanese on the battlefield.
Because they will think:
If the Eighth Route Army could defeat the Japanese so easily and go deep into the tiger's den to capture the enemy's leader alive, how powerful and terrifying would the Eighth Route Army be?
There are also those rocket fighters, missiles, and according to legend, there are also artillery pieces that are always accurate... If the artillery can be accurate, will there still be unwinnable battles?
It is said that this kind of gun was developed by the Eighth Route Army, and they are the only ones who have it!
How could the Eighth Route Army develop to this extent in such a harsh environment?!
Therefore, this strengthened the determination of the stubborn soldiers to resist the war, and some of the stubborn soldiers were even considering whether to side with the Eighth Route Army!
From this point of view, it is not accurate for Wang Xuexin to think that capturing Okamura Neji alive is not important. The benefit of this matter is not to capture Okamura Neji itself, but that it can set up a banner in China for those egoists to pursue interests.
Stand on the side of the war...
In this critical moment, we don’t have to think deeply about whether we are fighting for profit. As long as we are willing to fight, we are comrades and good comrades.
The Chongqing authorities have also seen this, and it is something they do not want to see.
For the subordinates in front of them, the Chongqing authorities are not too worried that they will defect to the Eighth Route Army, but for the far ends that they cannot control, such as the Shanxi-Sui Army... then they are not sure.
After much thought, the Chongqing authorities sent a telegram to Yan Laoxi, saying that Shanxi has always been Yan Laoxi's territory, and the troops are all local soldiers from Shanxi. They are not only familiar with the environment, but also have the help of fellow villagers, etc.
What he said was that in order to win the Anti-Japanese War, the Chongqing authorities would fully support Yan Laoxi in stationing in Taiyuan.
It is said that Yan Laoxi is not stupid. He only needs to think about it for a moment to understand that the Chongqing authorities are provoking a relationship between the Jinsui Army and the Eighth Route Army... To be precise, they are worried that the Jinsui Army will choose to cooperate with the Eighth Route Army. Previously, Yan Laoxi had done something for Shanxi
That's what I've done for my own benefit.
But at this time, Yan Laoxi dreamed of regaining Shanxi and becoming his local emperor. At this time, he was encouraged by the Chongqing authorities, so he clapped his thigh and shouted: "That's right! Didn't the Eighth Route Army always say cooperation in the war of resistance? Cooperation?
We need to show some cooperation! Which army is more suitable to garrison Shanxi than my Jinsui Army? For the sake of the overall situation, we should let the Jinsui Army go back!"
Even Yan Laoxi himself didn't believe this... The Jinsui Army was driven out by the Japs in Shanxi, and the Japs were driven out by the Eighth Route Army. How dare you say that you are more suitable to defend Shanxi?
But people who fell into this pit would not think so much. Yan Laoxi thought that Shanxi was his own territory, and the Eighth Route Army, as a "friendly army", would take it back from the Japanese. Whether it was logically or in terms of cooperation in the war of resistance,
, Shanxi should be "returned" to him.
So there was a scene where Chu Yunfei secretly visited Wang Xuexin.
Wang Xuexin pushed the gift back and replied: "Brother Chu, what you said is wrong! Our Eighth Route Army fights for China, the nation and the people, not for the Shanxi-Sui Army! So where does this 'gang' come from?
rise?"
Wang Xuexin's meaning is obvious. Shanxi now belongs to the country and is no longer Yan Laoxi's private territory.
"Where is it! Brother Wang..."
Chu Yunfei wanted to say something else but was stopped by Wang Xuexin.
"If Brother Chu is here for this matter, please come back!" Wang Xuexin issued an expulsion order: "Brother Chu should also know that there is no room for negotiation on this matter!"
Chu Yunfei smiled awkwardly. It was not that he didn't know, but how could he not try his best on what Yan Laoxi told him?
But now...it can be considered as my best effort!
Chu Yunfei nodded helplessly and said: "Since Brother Wang said this, Mr. Chu will no longer embarrass Brother Wang. Mr. Chu came here, firstly for Taiyuan and secondly for the artillery? I wonder if Brother Wang can..."
"Artillery?" Wang Xuexin looked at Chu Yunfei doubtfully: "You mean Mao Xiong's M30?"
"No!" Chu Yunfei replied: "This is the artillery that your army can use to defeat the Japanese artillery at Yanmen Pass with perfect accuracy!"
Now Wang Xuexin understood clearly that Chu Yunfei was actually talking about artillery detection radar. Because he didn't know what it was, he could only describe it as an "artillery with perfect shots".
