The chief of staff did not give a direct order, but gave Li Yunlong a choice: "Comrade Li Yunlong, considering that the Independent Regiment has twice captured Yuncheng and is familiar with Yuncheng's defense, the organization plans to have the Independent Regiment garrison Yuncheng. Would you like to
Are you willing?"
Li Yunlong was happy as soon as he heard this, he is such a fat bastard!
Not to mention that Yuncheng is a strategic location, Yuncheng itself and the houses in the city... that can accommodate hundreds of thousands of people!
Can the people who escaped be allowed to come back?
Definitely have to go back!
Are there ordinary people still worried about the source of troops?
Do you still need to worry about supplies?
It is also backed by the two cash cows of Zhongtiaoshan Mine and Salt Lake!
…
There are so many benefits that Li Yunlong can't even think of them.
So without much thought, he agreed without hesitation: "Obey the organization's arrangements!"
But the chief of staff changed the topic and continued: "But Comrade Li Yunlong, you also know how important this Yuncheng is to our army, so you must not make fun of this Yuncheng. The organization will hand over the complete Yuncheng to you."
You cannot lose an inch of land in your hands, do you understand?"
"Understood!" Li Yunlong stood up quickly.
Li Yunlong is very confident about this. He is not like Yan Laoxi, who can lose this strong city to the Japanese again and again. If Yuncheng is handed over to Li Yunlong, he will ensure that the Japanese will never come back!
However, the chief of staff then said: "But there is another problem. Yuncheng is the foundation of the Jinsui Army. We estimate that... the Jinsui Army will come to pursue Yuncheng's idea again. If they come to ask for it, you can't refuse. Do you understand?
?”
"Ming..." Li Yunlong just said a word, and he was startled: "What? Can't refuse? Chief of Staff, did you say it wrong!"
"That's right, it's just 'can't refuse'!" said the chief of staff: "If you can't do it, I will hand over Yuncheng to someone else. Just give me a word and decide whether you want it or not!"
How could Li Yunlong be willing to leave this piece of fat to others? He hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said, "Chief of staff and chiefs, please rest assured and promise to complete the mission!"
The chief of staff responded "That's good" and then hung up the phone.
Although Li Yunlong said, "I promise to complete the task," he felt troubled after hanging up the phone.
He froze in front of the phone for a while without thinking about it. Then he walked around twice with his hands behind his back, then walked up to the kang and asked Zhao Gang, who was counting the list of seized materials on the kang table: "Old Zhao, I told you something..."
Zhao Gang was doing abacus while looking at the numbers. After hearing this, he raised his head impatiently and said, "You heard that, you just want to leave Yuncheng to us? I'm busy right now, wait until I finish the calculation."
!”
Li Yunlong lost his temper immediately, took off his hat and threw it in front of Zhao Gang, and cursed: "Old Zhao, you think these supplies will be able to run away later? This is an urgent matter for us. If we can't handle it well,
The whole of Yuncheng has been lost, and you will still be considered a ball by then!"
Zhao Gang really didn't quite understand the conversation between Li Yunlong and the chief of staff just now. Hearing that Li Yunlong's words were so serious, he could only put aside the matter at hand for the time being and asked: "Okay, tell me, what's going on?"
Can you still let us lose Yuncheng?"
When Li Yunlong saw that he had succeeded in turning Zhao Gang onto his own road, he immediately got excited. He crossed his legs and moved closer to him. He said to Zhao Gang mysteriously: "That's what happened. The chief of staff said, let's
Guard Yuncheng and don’t give up an inch of land..."
"What else am I talking about!" Zhao Gang looked disdainful: "Isn't this what it should be? Lao Li, are you trying to make fun of me or what?"
"We haven't said everything yet!" Li Yunlong continued: "But the chief of staff issued another order, saying that when the Jinsui Army comes to Yuncheng, we cannot refuse!"
Zhao Gang took a breath of cold air, was stunned for a while, and asked: "Did you really give this order?"
"I lied to you that I was my grandson!" Li Yunlong replied: "We thought we heard wrongly."
Then Li Yunlong asked again: "Old Zhao, tell me, what kind of medicine is being sold in the gourd of the Chief of Staff? You must not give up an inch of land to us, and you cannot refuse the Jinsui Army. Isn't this a deliberate embarrassment?
Us?"
After all, Zhao Gang was the political commissar. He understood it after a little thought, and then analyzed: "In my opinion, the superiors want to stabilize the Jinsui Army. Because as Xiao Dongbei said, Yuncheng is the foundation of the Jinsui Army. Losing Yuncheng will
The Jinsui Army has no choice but to rely on the recalcitrant army. Then, they will soon be absorbed by the recalcitrant army or become their puppets!"
Li Yunlong said "Oh", nodded and said: "That's the truth, so Yuncheng can neither lose an inch of land nor reject the Jin-Sui Army!"
Then Li Yunlong became dissatisfied: "I also said, why would the superiors give Yuncheng to me, a big boss? The pie in the world is falling, and nothing good is going to happen..."
"Li Yunlong!" Zhao Gang stared, straightened up and knocked on the Kang table to criticize: "Who are you talking about? This is a task assigned to us by our superiors. You should be thinking about how to complete it instead of complaining about this or that.
Negative thoughts in my stomach! If you can do it, do it. If you can’t do it, I’ll report it to my superiors..."
"No, no!" When Zhao Gang said this, Li Yunlong became anxious: "Let's just say, you can do it! I promise you can do it!"
In fact, even if the choice was given to Li Yunlong, Li Yunlong would definitely choose to take on this task. The temptation of Yuncheng is enough for him to take any risks... This can be regarded as the largest and richest city in the Eighth Route Army during this period. Only a fool would not take it.
Woolen cloth!
The reason why Li Yunlong complained so much was because he was just talking nonsense and adding a little bit of the mentality of "behaving well when you get an advantage". More importantly... when Li Yunlong said this, he had to show off to other troops and tell Yuncheng that they could not win.
This man who is greedy for meat knows that not everyone can garrison this Yuncheng. He, Li Yunlong, not only knocked it down with real swords and guns, but also exchanged it for an almost impossible task.
Otherwise, there are so many troops in the Eighth Route Army. In addition to the Independent Regiment, there are also several regular troops. They also participated in the battle to attack Yuncheng. Why should the Independent Regiment take the lead?
Unexpectedly, Zhao Gang didn't understand Li Yunlong's thoughts at all, and directly suppressed it by "reporting to superiors."
How could Li Yunlong know that Zhao Gang's "report to superiors" was just to scare Li Yunlong, and how could Zhao Gang be willing to give up Yuncheng.
This is a big city with hundreds of thousands of people!
If we can do a good job in the ideological work of the people in Yuncheng and let them devote themselves to the cause of the Anti-Japanese War, it will be of great benefit to China!
