For the next few days, Jinsui Army transport teams continued to pass through the road in front of Xiao Yunshan to Linfen, but there was no chance to make a move.
The Jinsui Army was too cautious. The transport team of more than 100 carts directly sent a regiment of troops to escort them, and did not give Xiao Yunshan a chance to rob the grain.
At the new regiment headquarters outside Linfen City, the chief of staff was also very anxious.
Seeing more and more Jinsui troops gathering in Linfen City, and more and more food supplies being hoarded, he was anxious in his heart.
In his opinion, the Jinsui Army's continuous increase of garrison troops in Linfen City must be preparing for itself to gradually encroach on the base area!
Wang Ping's face was as calm as ever, and he would comfort him from time to time: "Chief of Staff, don't be anxious!"
"This struggle between us and the Jinsui Army is not a war. A quick victory cannot solve the problem!"
"So all we need to do now is be patient and wait."
"More than 20,000 Jinsui troops have gathered in Linfen City now. They cannot stay in the city forever. As long as they leave the city and start taking action, once their forces are dispersed, there will be a lot of opportunities in front of us!"
"When the time comes, I will definitely make Yan Laoxi regret sending troops to take over Linfen City and seize the territory from our Eighth Route Army!"
Suddenly, political commissar Huang Yuanqiang rushed in.
He walked directly to Wang Ping and said in a low voice: "Head, the boss and the commander are here!"
"Who is coming?" Wang Ping didn't expect that the deputy commander would come, so he subconsciously asked!
The political commissar did not answer, but stared at the guard company commander aside and ordered: "Captain Li, from now on, the regiment headquarters and the five kilometers around the regiment headquarters will be on wartime alert. If there are not enough troops, go directly to your battalion commander and ask your battalion to
If the commander sends troops to cooperate, just say it was my order!"
Wang Ping was frightened. As soon as Captain Li rushed out, he hurriedly asked: "Old Huang, who did you just say is coming? Is it necessary to make such a big fanfare?"
"Of course it is necessary!" Huang Yuanqiang replied seriously.
Then he continued to order: "Senior Zhou, please inform the regimental cooking team to prepare an extra row of meals at noon today, and use the good things that Battalion Commander Xiao sent us a few days ago, according to the standard of two dishes and one soup.
If you do it, our regiment will also take advantage of it and have a tooth festival!"
After all the orders were issued, Huang Yuanqiang replied: "Commander...the military region commander and the deputy commander-in-chief of the headquarters are here. They should be almost at the entrance of the village now. It was our sentry post at the intersection who called to report. There will definitely be no mistake!"
"
"The deputy commander-in-chief is here too! Wang Ping was stunned for a moment and asked.
The reaction of Chief of Staff Zhong Chenggong was even more exaggerated. He was so frightened that he had his mouth open for a long time before he could react!"
"Yes!" Huang Yuanqiang affirmed!
Wang Ping also became excited and immediately ordered: "Then why are you standing still? Call Wei Yong, and the four of us will go to greet him!"
"I'm looking for you to be transferred from the Eighth Route Army headquarters to the new regiment. I haven't seen the boss in almost three years!"
When we arrived at the entrance of the village, the boss and commander also arrived.
Wang Ping reported with excitement: "Hello, chief, Wang Ping, the leader of the new regiment, is here to report!"
The boss joked with a smile on his face: "How about it, Commander Chen, I think Wang Ping will definitely know about our arrival in advance!"
"Comrade Wang Ping, we said goodbye back then, and we haven't seen each other for almost three years. Your performance in the past three years has been very good, and I am very satisfied. The Eighth Route Army Headquarters is very satisfied, and Yan'an is also very satisfied, very good!"
Wang Ping replied with an embarrassed look on his face: "Chief, you have given me the award. It is all the result of the joint efforts of our comrades!"
"Without the help of my comrades, I, Wang Ping, no matter how capable I am, would not be able to achieve the current situation in southwestern Shanxi!"
"Chief, this is my political commissar Comrade Huang Yuanqiang, Chief of Staff Comrade Zhong Chenggong, and Security Department Comrade Wei Yong."
"The New Regiment cannot achieve its current results without them!"
"Hello, Chief!" Both Huang Yuanqiang and Zhong Chenggong saw their boss face to face for the first time. The excitement on their faces could not be described in words, and they quickly saluted and reported.
Returning to the headquarters, Commander Chen, who was following the boss, couldn't help but ask: "Wang Ping, lunch is ready!"
"My boss and I traveled here all day and night without any rest, just to eat from a wealthy family like you!"
Huang Yuanqiang quickly replied: "Please rest assured, chief, we are ready!"
The boss was as serious and frugal as ever. As soon as Commander Chen finished speaking, he glared at him fiercely and then added.
"Don't listen to your commander. We will eat whatever the comrades eat. Don't be special, or I will overturn the table!"
"Wang Ping, you used to stay at the headquarters, you should know that I do what I say, and you have seen me lift the table!"
Wang Ping quickly replied: "Boss, please rest assured. Except for the wounded, no one in our new regiment can do anything special, including me, the regiment leader!"
After saying that, the cooking squad leader walked in with a smile: "Regiment leader, political commissar, it's time to eat!"
The small room next to the headquarters is specially used for meals by regiment personnel, with an Eight Immortals table placed in the middle.
When I walked in, I saw four basins on the table.
A bowl of white flour steamed buns, a bowl of chicken soup, a bowl of pork stewed with radish, and a bowl of small cabbage!
The pork stewed with radish has a thick layer of oil floating on it, and the large chunks of pork are fried to a golden color, which looks particularly attractive. For the Eighth Route Army soldiers who rarely eat white flour steamed buns, this is definitely a treat.
A big dish that will whet your appetite just by looking at it!
As soon as the boss walked to the door, his expression changed.
Wang Ping had expected this scene and answered directly: "Don't worry, chief, we definitely didn't do anything special for today's meal!"
"In the past few days, we have been eating these for lunch every day!"
"Speaking of which, I would also like to thank Commander Yan from the World War II area. Without him, we would only be able to eat such a good meal in two or three days!"
"Yan Laoxi, what does the food on the table have to do with Yan Laoxi?" The boss looked much better and asked, staring at Wang Ping.
Zhong Chenggong next to him reported: "Chief, some time ago, the World War II zone delivered food supplies to the Japanese army in Linfen City!"
"The regiment leader used a trick to steal half of the food and supplies. They were all white flour, pork, vegetables, and grain and oil!"
"Because pork and vegetables cannot be stored for too long, the whole group will eat this lunch every day during this period!"
The boss was very happy at first, but soon reminded: "Losing so much food and supplies in vain, Yan Laoxi will bear it!"
"Of course not!" Wang Ping said!
"I sent people to negotiate several times, but I put the blame on the remnants of the Japanese and puppet troops who had just been killed by us. The food was also said to have been destroyed by the Japanese!"
"Death without proof, no matter how unwilling he is, there is nothing he can do!"
"And the incident happened on a highway controlled by the Jinsui Army. As long as we don't admit it, it has nothing to do with us!"
"It is not impossible to make us responsible. If you think that our Eighth Route Army is responsible, then hand over the highway to our Eighth Route Army to manage. In this case, if something goes wrong, it will be our Eighth Route Army's responsibility!"
"Chief Yan is not a fool, and he will definitely not hand over the lifeline of Linfen City to our Eighth Route Army!"
"Well done!" The boss was completely relieved.
"Let's go and eat. After dinner, tell us a good report on how you negotiated and fought with the Jinsui Army!"
