The father of the sword is Kong Jie

Chapter 560
Han Feng and Yamamoto had a secret rivalry, so let's not mention it for now.

Many undercurrents continue to surge.

As the Battle of Zhongtiaoshan launched by the Japanese army in southern Shanxi draws to a close, the defeat of the national army is certain, and the situation in southern Shanxi has changed dramatically.

Commander Yan Xi in the second war zone may not be good at combat command, but he is good at speculative speculation.

In fact, Yan Laoxi's ambition is not great, and he doesn't have great ability. He has self-knowledge, so he wants to firmly control his one-acre three-point land in Shanxi.

Wouldn't it be better to be a leisurely emperor than anything else?
Therefore, when the Central Army came to the border of Shanxi to intervene in Chief Yan's "housework", Yan Laoxi was very unhappy, and even secretly winked at the little devil.

But the infamy of being a traitor is too heavy, and Lao Xi can't afford it, and he doesn't want to. It's not good to be scolded as a traitor by his father and fellow villagers in his hometown, and the ancestral graves will smoke black.

From the beginning to the end, he was able to find the right and wrong, and dealt with many parties. In the abacus of the cunning and calculating Lao Xi, it was clanging.

In fact, it is not easy for Chief Yan. In the midst of dealing with many parties, he worked hard to preserve his one-acre three-point land in Shanxi, and continued to stabilize his throne as the emperor.

Whether it's flattery to the Japanese army, obedience to the Central Army, or the Eighth Route Army in the Taihang area, or sweet dates, or big sticks.

Chief Yan always went with this consistent goal.

But the current situation has changed dramatically.

No one thought that the Central Army was so useless, and it performed so poorly in the Battle of Zhongtiaoshan, and it was defeated like a mountain.

Since the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, the Zhongtiaoshan base area, which had been guarded for more than four years, was beaten down by the little devils in less than a month.

If the fight continues like this, with the defeat of the Central Army, Chief Yan is worried that his three-acre land in Shanxi will sooner or later be snatched away by greedy little devils.

What else can I do?

Chief Yan is a little guilty from the bottom of his heart for single-handedly picking on little devils, so he can only quickly find a way to find someone to join him.

Look east, look west.

The national army was defeated again and again, and the defeat at Zhongtiaoshan was more like a shame.

In the Taihang Mountain area, the performance of the Eighth Route Army was quite different from that of the National Army.

People win battles when they have nothing to do. Not long ago, the big raids launched by the Japanese army all ended in disastrous defeats. The three regiments of the Iron Triangle, especially the Independent Regiment of the Eighth Route Army, have long been famous. If you don't cooperate with the Eighth Route Army, who else can you turn to for the division of land?

I heard that during the big raid not long ago, some units of the Jinsui Army, such as the 57th Regiment and the [-]th Regiment of the Jinsui Army, also joined forces with the Eighth Route Army to fight against the little devils. This is a perfect opportunity.

Chief Yan immediately made up his mind. First, he vigorously publicized the 57th Regiment and the [-]th Regiment of the Jinsui Army through the newspaper office, which had jointly fought with the Eighth Route Army and defeated the Japanese army.

He also commended Chu Yunfei, head of the 57th Regiment of the Jinsui Army, and Yang Chongshan, head of the [-]th Regiment.

Because of this, Qian Shoucai, the third battalion commander of the 57th Regiment of the Jinsui Army, showed the newspaper to Yang Chongshan, the commander of the regiment, and said, "You are famous!"

Commander Yang was in a daze.

This surprise came too suddenly.

Then, the Commander's Department of the Second War Zone immediately issued an order, expressing the willingness of the Jinsui Army to fight jointly with the Eighth Route Army.

Externally, it is vigorously publicized:
"Zhongtiao Mountain has fallen, but our Jinsui Army is still there, and our friendly Eighth Route Army is still there.

China has not been defeated, and China will not perish!
From now on, our Shanxi-Sui Military Headquarters and the Eighth Route Army Headquarters will strengthen the joint anti-Japanese operations and call on the whole people to participate in the cause of the Anti-Japanese War. "

Not only that, Chief Yan also personally stated that he was going to send some senior officers of the Jinsui Army to the headquarters of the Taihang Eighth Route Army to conduct an exchange and study of the anti-Japanese war between the officers of the two sides.

Learn the guerrilla tactics of the Eighth Route Army with an open mind.

Driven by this series of measures, the relationship between the Shanxi Jinsui Army and the Eighth Route Army seems to have reached a historical peak and officially entered the "honeymoon period."

Of course, this is just publicity.

As an excellent politician, in terms of actual operations, Chief Yan's calculations are also shrewd.

Do you really think that our Chief Yan is going to make up his mind and fight to the death?

Bullshit!

Although we Lao Xi will not surrender and become a traitor, it is impossible for us to work hard to resist the Japanese.

In private, Chief Yan's policy was to continue to stabilize the Japanese army, so as to be relieved, as if he was fooling a child:
It’s not that we really want to fight against your Japanese army, it’s just a matter of form. Don’t worry, we’re still not going to offend the river. If you want to fight the Eighth Route Army, we’ll get what we want, and we’ll never send troops to help. Is the head office all right?

Don't worry, it's still the same as before. If you want to mop up the Eighth Route Army, you can just borrow from our Jinsui Army's territory.

As soon as the topic changed, the shrewd Chief Yan then made a fool of himself:

I have already promised not to be hostile to your Japanese army. You have to give me some benefits for the Jinsui army, right?I have three soldiers and horses, so many mouths are still waiting to eat!
Chief Yan, who had a shrewd calculation, was certain that the Japanese army would deal with the Eighth Route Army first, and then deal with the Jinsui Army, so he dared to rip off so recklessly.

This is indeed the case. From the Hundred Regiments War to the recent sweep, the strength displayed by the Eighth Route Army has already made the Japanese army panic.

How can you allow others to sleep soundly next to the couch?
If the Jinsui Army is a worry to the outside world, then the Eighth Route Army is a cancer to the inside, and which one is more terrible, the little devil is very clear about it.

Then make friends from a distance and attack from a distance, so the Japanese army and the Jinsui army, who have their own ghosts, reached a new tacit agreement.

Taihang base.

The headquarters and the brigade headquarters suddenly received news that Chief Yan from the World War II zone was planning to send a group of senior officers from the Jinsui Army to the Eighth Route Army headquarters for a visit, exchange and study in the near future.

The brigade commander was delighted, "How can this Yan Laoxi sing?"

The political commissar said: "It is estimated that the situation in Zhongtiao Mountain has changed. With the defeat of the Central Army, Yan Laoxi couldn't sit still. He was afraid that the devils would occupy his territory again, so he came to seek the cooperation of our Eighth Route Army."

"It seems that this is the only explanation!" The brigade commander said.

The chief of staff said: "Yan Laoxi's Sima Zhao's heart has long been known to passers-by!"

"As for whether he really wants to unite with us to fight against Japan, only the devil will know!"

The brigade commander said with a smile: "Whether he is sincere or not, he is conducting a joint resistance war on the bright side, which is enough to inspire the determination of the entire World War II zone to resist Japan, and it is of great benefit to the change in the situation of resistance against Japan."

The chief of staff suddenly remembered something and said, "Brigade commander, political commissar, do you think this is a coincidence? Not long ago, that boy Kong Jie proposed to hold an internal cadre exchange and study meeting in his independent regiment.

In a blink of an eye, the Jinsui army also wanted to come to our headquarters for an exchange and study meeting? "

The brigade commander and the political commissar were a little startled, then laughed.

It really is……

Independence Corps.

regiment.

Kong Jie sat leisurely on the kang, and on the small table was a plate of peanuts and a bottle of white wine produced by the independent group base winery.

Monk Wei, the guard, sat beside him with a smile on his face, nicknamed "accompanying wine".

Acting political commissar Li Wenjie, who was so busy that he never stopped, rushed to the regiment headquarters, and then saw the big and small happily clinking glasses with wine bowls.

"Captain, you are too leisurely!" Li Wenjie said with a depressed face.

Kong Jie asked in surprise, "Is there going to be a war in the regiment?"

"Ah? That's not true." Li Wenjie replied, still a little confused.

Kong Jiele said: "That's right. I'm a military officer and I haven't fought a war. What are you busy with? Monk, where have we been drinking?"

The monk turned his head, and Li Wenjie was staring at him with a straight face. The monk scratched his head quickly, and said with a smile: "Head, we are almost done drinking, so I will go out to watch first, and come back to drink with you later!"

Saying that, when he was running away, he still didn't forget to take the sheep by the hand and send away the remaining half bottle of liquor.

Soon there were only Li Wenjie and Kong Jie left in the room. Li Wenjie sat down on the bed that the monk had just left, grabbed a handful of peanuts, peeled them, and said:
"Head, I knew it would be so tiring to be an acting political commissar. I said I wouldn't agree to you at the beginning. It would be nice for me to be my instructor!"

Kong Jie smiled and said, "What's the matter, are you tired?"

Li Wenjie shook his head, stuffed a peanut into his mouth, and said, "Compared to the frontline soldiers throwing their heads and blood, what is this tiredness?"

"Leader, sometimes I have some doubts. With such a large independent group, five or six thousand people, and an increasingly broad base area, do you think I, the acting political commissar, can do a good job?"

Kong Jie said: "I don't know if it's a good job or not. I only know that in our independent group, no one can do better than you."

"Head, then you can't be the hands-off shopkeeper?"

Now that the relationship with Kong Jie is getting closer, Li Wenjie, who really regards Kong Jie as his elder brother, complains.

Kong Jie sat up straighter, and said with a straight face: "Wenjie, you have wronged me so much, it's not that I want to be the shopkeeper, I'm also trying to hone you, you said that the deputy political commissar will become a regular sooner or later." Yes, this is what a political commissar should do, you have to get used to it in advance, right?"

When Li Wenjie heard this, he was taken aback for a moment, and then nodded, which made sense.

Kong Jie continued: "Look, you also think what I said is reasonable! Don't worry, after you become a regular, I will definitely help you share some things in the regiment."

"Really?"

"Is there still a fake?" Kong Jie said.

"Hey!" Li Wenjie laughed brightly.

Then when it came to business, Li Wenjie said: "Leader, according to your arrangement, everything has been done. The experts, professors and representatives we escorted back this time have all been devoted to the work of our base area."

Kong Jie asked curiously, "How is the effect?"

Li Wenjie said with a smile: "It's better than we imagined. Comrade Sun Nianguo, the overseas Chinese representative, has been obsessed with the translation of Japanese books. He said that the contents of those Japanese booklets are simply treasures. If they can be translated, it will be of great help to the construction of our army." and economic development are of great benefit.”

"Professors Qian Xuezhong and Chen Dong visited our production plant, especially the various assembly lines in the repair shop, and they directly expressed that they would stay in the independent group."

"Other talents have also arranged jobs they like."

"Okay, very good, the time has come, and you can report to the brigade commander." Amidst the loud laughter, Kong Jie lifted the curtain of the inner room, walked to the communication department of the main room, and shouted: "Communication officer, put me through immediately." The phone number of the brigade department."

Li Wenjie: "..."
