Chapter 226 Do it!
"Give Qingcheng and Wumeng to us?" Qiluban almost couldn't believe what Chief of Staff Ye said.

"Brother Ye, we have been friends for many years. We can be frank with each other if there is anything. I feel a little uneasy when you say that."

"Brother Yisheng, this is not just something I say verbally. In the attack on Qingcheng, my Saibei Military Region is willing to be the vanguard and defeat the main force of the Japanese in Qingcheng. If Brother Yisheng is not determined to use troops in Qingcheng, my Saibei Military Region is willing to take full responsibility." Staff Officer Ye said righteously.

"But if our army takes it by then, the ownership of Qingcheng will have nothing to do with Suiyuan."

As a qualified lobbyist, Staff Officer Ye had no intention of letting the Seventh and a Half Route Army take over.

After all, at such a high-level strategic level, you can’t feel it unless you are in the game.

According to the new strategy deduced by Ren Zhong and Staff Officer Ye, and after communicating with the upper echelons of the border region, it is actually very difficult to find major flaws in this strategy.

Even if this will leave some hidden dangers for the future, these are internal problems. For the entire national rejuvenation, these are not major deviations and will not affect the interests of the nation.

On the contrary, this is the new strategy that is most beneficial to our nation.

"Staff Officer Ye, are you sure that the Border Region, Qingcheng, and Wumeng will all give up?" Qiluban looked at Staff Officer Ye with burning eyes, as if he wanted to see clearly what he was thinking.

"Brother Yisheng, I've told you that our Saibei Military Region can assist in attacking Qingcheng and Wumeng, but we will not enter the city. This is a commitment that can form an agreement. If Brother Yisheng's credibility with Ye is not worth mentioning, then there is no need to say anything. We will go back and take Qingcheng and Wumeng ourselves." Staff Officer Ye said very firmly.

"We coordinated with Brother Yisheng in advance so that the cooperation between our two families can complement each other. To be honest, Brother Yisheng, the goal of the Saibei Military Region is to take over Yunzhong together with the Northwest Shanxi Military Region. Therefore, we don't need to station too many troops in Qingcheng. Instead, we will cooperate with the Northwest Shanxi Military Region to take over Yunzhong. Together with Jiuyuan, Yike Zhao League, the border area, and Northwest Shanxi, we will form a more complete defense circle."

"If Brother Yisheng had not led his troops eastward, we would have needed to divide our forces to guard the grassland, which would have been somewhat of an obstacle to the attack on Yunzhong, but it would not be a big problem. After our Suimeng Autonomous Army on the grassland captures Qingcheng, our influence on the grassland will surely be enough to gather more help." Staff Officer Ye said softly but firmly.

In Qiluban's opinion, the situation he described was indeed possible.

The current strength of the Saibei Military Region is already an extremely powerful force for the Seventh Route and a Half, and can pose a huge threat to the two divisions of the Japanese devils.

Combined with the strength of the Suimeng Autonomous Army, Qiluban has no doubt that the border area has the strength to take Qingcheng.

"Then why can't your army give up Jiuyuan and leave the entire northern border to my 35th Army to defend?" Qiluban suddenly asked.

Jiuyuan divided Wuyuan and Qingcheng into two, which was really uncomfortable for Qiluban.

"Brother Yisheng, we have discussed this before. I don't think this should be a prerequisite for this cooperation." Staff Officer Ye said, "If Brother Yisheng is not interested in Qingcheng and Wumeng, I will go back now. In the future, we will compete on the grassland with our own abilities."

Staff Officer Ye used retreat as a way of advance.

On the grassland, strength is more useful than words.

The current Saibei Military Region is strong enough to compete with the Japanese outside the Great Wall, so Ren Zhong speaks very confidently in this place and is not afraid of offending the Seven Route Army.

"Brother Ye, please be patient. We in Suiyuan are poor and weak, and it is inconvenient for us to carry out the orders of our superiors."

"Brother Yisheng, I will stay in Wuyuan for three days and then go back. If you don't make a decision before I go back, then our Eighth Route Army will be the only ones left in the rest of the war of resistance. For you, the loss of national territory is already a common matter, so we will have to shoulder the rest of this matter on our own. I will go back tomorrow, and we will start preparing for the final strategy. On the grassland, we can't let the Japanese occupy our land and take away our wealth." As expected, Ren Zhong's actions stirred up the Seventh and a Half Route Army.

You know, for Wuyuan, this model has basically been developed to the end after the Saibei Military Region took over Jiuyuan.

The development of the Seventh and a Half Route has been blocked, but the Seventh and a Half Route cannot now break off relations and attack the Saibei Military Region.

Otherwise, the apparent joint defense of the two sides will not be maintained.

Now Staff Officer Ye took the initiative to give up the main road and let Qingcheng and Wumeng go. Even if this was a conspiracy by the border area, it would be difficult for the Seven and a Half Route Army to resist the temptation.

After all, without obtaining Jiuyuan's vital mineral resources, Qingcheng and Wumeng are far more important than Jiuyuan in Qiluban's mind.

Although after taking this place, we will inevitably face the Japanese and bear their pressure, but the current situation in the northern part of the country makes it impossible to take this place for no reason.

So under the persuasion of Staff Officer Ye, Qiluban was tempted without much hesitation.

After some planning, the main force of the 35th Army infiltrated into Jiuyuan.

In places where the Japanese had no expectation at all, the Saibei Military Region and the Seventh and a Half Route Army jointly launched the Qingcheng Campaign and the Wumeng Campaign.

After two major battles, the Eighth Route Army became much stronger than the Japanese. The Air Force can take off and provide support at any time. It not only ensures the air safety of the entire Shanxi area and the outside of the Great Wall, but also can provide certain support on the front line. At this stage, this is enough to be proud of.

You must know that not long ago, the Eighth Route Army was the target of unscrupulous attacks by the Japanese army and air force.

It's not just the Eighth Route Army, even the preserved fruits, their anti-aircraft artillery positions are now nothing after being bombed, and are basically completely destroyed.

The only direct face-to-face confrontation left on the ground is with the army. If the army is not able to cope with it, then everything will be lost.

"Brother Ye, let's do it!" Qiluban was not a naive commander. After he found that he could no longer play both sides and take advantage of others, he quickly returned to the realistic path.

In this matter, Qiluban had no bargaining power.

Unless he has no idea about Qingcheng and Wumeng, he just hides in Wuyuan and preserves his main forces, waiting for the Japanese to surrender.

But according to the current development trend, Seven and a Half Roads may not be able to catch up with anything in this time and space.

Not only did the Saibei Military Region block his way, but even in the list of preserved fruits that had not yet been updated, the Seventh Route and a Half had always gone their own way and had their names removed from the list.

It is impossible to get strong support from the preserved fruits, so you can only stay where you are and wait for the overall situation to be settled before choosing one side to join.

Sorry guys, I'm drunk
