People are shining their swords, secretly helping the Iron Triangle in Northwest Shanxi

Hao Shiwen was from the Jin-Sui Army and was definitely willing to accept Yan Laoxi's suggestions at this time.

After all, as long as the 201st Division is mixed with other units, even if Hao Shiwen cannot get a military-level position, he will definitely not be able to get a division commander position.

Under such circumstances, Hao Shiwen naturally tried his best to advise Chu Yunfei to accept Yan Laoxi's conditions.

Chu Yunfei looked at the officers with a thoughtful expression on his face.

The conditions given by Yan Laoxi this time were not bad at all. The 201st Division would be reorganized with a group army.

After reorganization, this group army will also become the most powerful group army of the Shanxi-Sui Army.

It can be said that as long as Chu Yunfei and others nod and agree, all officers will be promoted.

"The reason why our troops were able to hold the Zhongtiao Mountain area and fight against heavy Japanese army groups again and again was mainly because we were able to unite together."

"You all know the situation of other units of the Jinsui Army. If our troops are mixed with them, you also know the consequences."

"So regarding this matter, I still hope that the 201st Division can maintain its current organization and gradually restore its combat effectiveness."

"As the battle continues, our various units have suffered casualties and losses, and they urgently need to be restored and replenished."

"Brother Ligong, you can draft a message and call back to Chief Yan directly to explain our current situation in detail."

"The overall losses of the 201st Division are relatively large and it is in urgent need of repairs, so it is temporarily unable to expand."

"Furthermore, our division still has the important task of holding on to Zhongtiao Mountain and cannot be reorganized, so I ask for your forgiveness, Commander Yan."

Chu Yunfei looked at the crowd and said with a serious expression on his face.

He naturally knew that as long as he agreed to Yan Laoxi's conditions, Chu Yunfei would definitely become the most dazzling general in the Jinsui Army in the future.

But Chu Yunfei also knew that once mixed with other Shanxi-Sui Army units, the 201st Division would definitely not be the same unit as before.

Even this reorganization will completely destroy the elite 201st Division.

Facing such a force, Chu Yunfei would definitely not want to see them go from glory to decline.

So Hao Shiwen wanted to express his promise to agree to Yan Laoxi's conditions, but Chu Yunfei didn't give him a chance.

Chu Yunfei made the final decision, with a serious expression on his face, and made a decision on this matter directly.

"What the teacher said is absolutely true. At this time, our troops are mainly focused on replenishment, and other matters should not be considered for the time being."

"And as you have all seen, the Japanese army still has a certain advantage in this battle and has also caused us certain losses."

"The fact that Yangcheng was able to defend it was a complete luck. If there were not enough artillery, Yangcheng would definitely be lost this time."

"The special operations wing and the special agent wing have very strong capabilities. This time they were only repelled, but they were not injured."

"They can still regain their strength within a short period of time, so we must be cautious and not be careless at all."

"Otherwise, once there are some loopholes, it will bring opportunities for the Japanese army to take advantage of, causing us to suffer greater losses."

Chen Ziyun stood up immediately, looked at the officers, and continued to emphasize.

In the 201st Division, Chu Yunfei must be the top leader.

The second in command would definitely not be Deputy Division Commander Hao Shiwen, but Infantry Artillery Commander Chen Ziyun.

Chen Ziyun has a great influence in the 201st Division, and he has led many troops.

Many officers were promoted because of Chen Ziyun, and the officers respected Chen Ziyun very much.

Chu Yunfei and Chen Ziyun made statements one after another, so the officers naturally did not hesitate.

"Yes, Master, Commander Chen."

Suddenly a large number of officers stood up and saluted directly.

Chief of Staff Fang Ligong did not hesitate and immediately began to draft a telegram and sent it directly to the commander of the Second Theater Command.

Officers also began to return to their troops. They needed to rest and replenish their troops while also actively carrying out defense.

After all, the areas they control now are directly connected to the areas occupied by the Japs.

No one can guarantee whether the Japs will take the opportunity to attack and conduct a sneak attack.

After all the officers left, Fang Ligong also finished sending the message.

Chu Yunfei and Chen Ziyun talked for a long time, and then they came directly to the map.

At this time, the situation map of all parties is clearly marked on the map.

Although Yangcheng was recaptured, and the first brigade was stationed for defense.

But overall, the Zhongtiao Mountain area is still in a relatively passive situation.

Especially in the Qinhe River area in northern Henan, there is the 110th Division in the area east of the Qinhe River. This division has more than 2 troops.

In the previous battle, the 110th Division dispatched 1 troops to prepare to forcefully cross the Qin River.

The third brigade assembled a large number of troops to resist tenaciously. The two sides continued to fight fiercely here in Qinhe, and both sides suffered casualties.

There is a greater threat in the northern Henan region, especially after the independent detachment was deployed and the troops were withdrawn, the third brigade was under greater pressure.

Another point is that although the New Second Regiment can rely on Yangcheng to launch guerrilla operations northward.

However, the Purple Mountain in the area north of Jiangcheng is in the hands of the Japanese army, which is still a big threat.

On the whole, the 201st Division and the independent detachment can hold on to the Zhongtiao Mountain area, but the Little Japanese troops still have advantages in many places.

"The third brigade in the northern Henan region is equipped with a guard regiment, and the third artillery regiment is responsible for defense. These four regiments are obviously insufficient."

"If the 110th Division of the Little Devils in the northern Henan region launches an offensive operation with all their strength, they will definitely not be able to stop the Japanese troops."

"The defense here needs to be strengthened to ensure the safety of the northern Henan region. Otherwise, if the 110th Division attacks from here, the consequences will be disastrous."

Chen Ziyun pointed to the northern Henan area on the map and made a direct suggestion.

Chu Yunfei nodded. At present, all independent detachments have withdrawn to the Zhongtiao Mountain area for defense.

At the same time, the New Second Regiment went to the area north of Yangcheng to carry out guerrilla warfare, so there was no independent detachment in the northern Henan area.

Several towns in northern Henan were handed over to the Third Brigade and other units for defense.

The third brigade has two infantry regiments, attached to the guard regiment, and the third artillery regiment. The strength of the four regiments obviously does not have much advantage.

"Here in the west of Zhongtiao Mountain, a field supplementary regiment can be deployed to strengthen the defense of northern Henan."

"In addition, the cavalry regiment can also be deployed in the Wangwu Town area to ensure support for operations."

"Another point is that based on our current military strength, we have to bear a relatively large defense range."

"We need to form one or two regiments and use them as a general reserve."

"Otherwise, with the current strength, it will be difficult to maintain such a large defensive area, and we will not even be able to mobilize troops for combat."

Chief of Staff Fang Ligong adjusted his glasses and made a direct suggestion.

Chu Yunfei and Chen Ziyun looked at each other with expressions of approval on their faces.

"I will personally report this matter to Chief Yan and Chief Jiang."

"Requesting the first and second commanders to approve the designations of our two regiments."

"Brother Ligong, you can make arrangements during this period to recruit a certain number of soldiers and prepare for formation." "Ziyun, the location here in Purple Mountain is very important. We have to find a way to take it."

"If we can capture Purple Mountain, we can use it as a base to continue guerrilla operations."

"And once Purple Mountain is captured, Jiangcheng will completely lose its barrier. If we want to get Jiangcheng, it will be easy."

After a moment of silence, Chu Yunfei spoke directly with a serious expression on his face.

Fang Ligong and Chen Ziyun nodded in agreement at the same time. They were responsible for different tasks.

Chen Ziyun must be preparing to go to the Yangcheng area to gradually understand the defense situation in Jiangcheng and Zijin Mountain.

Chen Ziyun is also preparing to capture Zijin Mountain. After all, by winning here, the outer barrier of Zhongtiao Mountain will be more reliable.

As for Fang Ligong, he wanted to recruit new soldiers and prepare to form two regiments again.

By the time Chen Ziyun left the division headquarters, it was already late, already after ten o'clock in the evening.

The weather was still very cold in November. Chen Ziyun glanced at the blue night with a sigh of relief on his face.

"Commander Chen, your meeting has been going on for so long."

"You haven't had dinner yet. If you don't mind, you can go to our communications office for a hot meal."

"It's getting late now. It's better to eat something and stay here at the division headquarters to take a rest."

Chen Ziyun had just left the division headquarters and was about to leave by car.

But at this time, Ouyang He, wearing a college uniform, came to Chen Ming and said with a calm expression on his face.

Chen Ming turned back and glanced at Ouyang He, with a thoughtful expression on his face.

After a moment of silence, Chen Ming nodded and followed Ouyang He directly to the communications office.

By the time Chen Ziyun arrived at the communications office, there were almost no people left except the on-duty staff who stayed behind.

Ouyang He directly invited Chen Ziyun to his separate office room, where a rich selection of hot pots had been prepared.

Various ingredients, steaming copper pots, and Fen wine from Jin Province are placed next to them.

"Commander Chen, you have achieved results in this battle, and your recovery of Yangcheng has made you famous all over the world."

"My colleagues in the Attendant's Office sent a special telegram. It is said that after the commissioner learned the news, they all praised you as his good student."

"As long as you, Commander Chen, are willing, it is possible to go to other war zones, not to mention the position of division commander, or even army commander."

"It's just a pity. Commander Chen will definitely not leave here."

After Chen Ziyun took his seat, Ouyang He poured the wine himself and put the ingredients into the copper pot.

Looking at Ouyang He in front of him, Chen Ziyun smiled slightly, but he didn't say much.

On the contrary, he was having meetings at the division headquarters one after another. He was really hungry now, so Chen Ziyun was not polite and started eating heavily.

"Director Ouyang, if I leave here, it may not be a good thing for you."

"Although Master is capable, Master will not engage in risky battles."

"Only if I'm here can I carry out some very daring operations."

"This battle, no matter what, still effectively contained many little Japanese troops."

"By the way, there is one more thing. I need the assistance of Director Ouyang. I hope Director Ouyang can try his best to find out the detailed deployment of the Zijin Mountain and Jiangcheng areas."

"It would be best if we could specify the number of troops and weapons and equipment."

Chen Ziyun looked at Ouyang He and said while eating hot pot.

Ouyang He pretended not to understand what Chen Ziyun said and continued to serve him food.

"There is no problem with this matter. Don't worry, I will send you the relevant information as soon as possible."

"But the troops have just finished the operation and are continuing to launch operations against Zijin Mountain. Isn't it a little too anxious?"

"In this battle, the casualties and losses of various units are not small. If the battle continues, the troops may not be able to withstand it."

"Jiangcheng and Zijin Mountain are the key defensive areas for the Japs. The division headquarters of the 37th Division is in Jiangcheng."

"There will definitely be no shortage of defensive troops around here. If we launch a strong attack, there may be heavy casualties."

Ouyang He looked at Chen Ziyun in front of him and suggested directly.

"Fight Zijin Mountain, not Jiangcheng."

"And when fighting Purple Mountain, I will use other tactics and will not conduct large-scale operations."

"Director Ouyang, I am still more professional than you in commanding operations."

Chen Ziyun took a sip of wine and said calmly.

Ouyang He smiled slightly, but didn't continue talking.

Chen Ziyun feasted at Ouyang He's place until after midnight, then he left the communications office.

Of course, Chen Ziyun did not stay here at the division headquarters. He went to the Yangcheng area overnight.

The little devils formed an agent wing and a special operations wing.

Both of these regiments have strong combat capabilities and are difficult for ordinary troops to deal with.

Therefore, if Chen Ziyun is planning to select on the basis of the guard regiment, he will form a combat force with strong strength.

In this case, they can easily deal with these two forces.

Otherwise, these two units may cause greater casualties to the 201 Division in the future.

When Chen Ziyun went to Yangcheng, in addition to understanding the deployment situation of Zijin Mountain, he also had to select qualified officers and soldiers in the first brigade.

There was no words for a night, time passed, and the sky gradually became brighter.

At nine o'clock in the morning the next day, in the area south of the Yellow River in Henan Province, in Luojing City, the headquarters of the deputy commander of the first theater.

Jiang Mingsan was sitting on a chair with a thoughtful expression on his face.

Chief of Staff Guo Jiqiao stood aside and reported with documents.

Chu Yunfei's message has been sent, and Chu Yunfei wants to apply to continue to expand the strength of the two regiments.

This message was sent directly to the first and second theaters.

After Jiang Mingsan received the telegram, he did not immediately approve it. Instead, he reported the telegram to the capital.

So far, I haven't made any call back, which made Jiang Mingsan a little confused.

"There was no response from the second theater. Commander Yan was preparing to reorganize the 201st Division."

"However, the 201st Division did not agree. Now, Commander Yan will not approve their continued expansion of the troops."

"Sir Jiang, the 201st Division is too large. I think the capital will definitely take action against the 201st Division."

Guo Jiqiao looked at Jiang Mingsan in front of him and said slowly. (End of chapter)
