Chapter 188: Yan Laoxi Speaks for Himself

Wei Lihuang's mood is also very good right now.

The Central Army has entered Jin Province, and now they have finally achieved some results; he can also send a battle report to Chang Kaishen.

"Report!"

At this moment, Fu Zuoyi's Adjutant enters the command post.

"How is it?" Wei Lihuang looks at the Adjutant who has entered.

"Commander Wei, Commander Fu, in tonight's great battle, our army annihilated over two thousand enemy troops."

"We captured quite a lot of firearms and ammunition."

Huang Shaohong sees Yan Laoxi and nods slightly, "Brother Baichuan, tonight, our 2nd War Zone has certainly fought a lively battle."

This residence has three courtyards and three exits, and it occupies a very large area.

Watching Wenzhuo leave, Yan Laoxi's heart begins to look forward to the scene of the common people in Jinyang seeing the newspapers tomorrow morning.

Wenzhuo salutes: "Yes!"

After pacing in the study for a long time, Yan Laoxi thinks of the Sichuan Army's fighting tonight.

Following a loud shout from Yan Laoxi, the Jin-Sui Army inside the residence immediately takes action.

After being woken up by his Adjutant, Yan Laoxi puts on his clothes and goes to the study.

Arriving at the headquarters, Yan Laoxi discovers that the conference room is brightly lit.

Huang Shaohong laughs: "The 22nd Group Army, tonight, according to their report just now."

In Yan Laoxi's view, Deng Xihou and Sun Zhen certainly would not easily let the Chuan'an Corps off.

Yan Laoxi exhales a breath of turbid air; he knows that Huang Shaohong will definitely use this running gag to tease him often.

Yan Laoxi's Adjutant drives to the Yan Mansion and enters the residence.

At his own home, he cannot receive any information about the Sichuan Army at all.

"The little devils have all been scared by us."

Seeing Yan Laoxi say this, Huang Shaohong laughs loudly: "Baichuan, you are going to exercise your ability to predict the future again!"

"They have also achieved quite a few results; at the very least, the strongholds built by the devils have now all been wiped out."

Wenzhuo nods, "Commander Yan, rest assured."

Last time, Yan Laoxi said the Sichuan Army was just "setting up a dragon gate formation," saying it wouldn't be long before the 2nd War Zone would receive a battle report of the Sichuan Army annihilating the 109th Division.

However, after Liu Dashuai spoke with Yan Laoxi, plus the intelligence analysis of the Sichuan Army.

He now wants most of all to know the results of the Sichuan Army, the 22nd Group Army, tonight!

Huang Shaohong shakes his head: "Deng Xihou's 22nd Group Army only conducted harassment against Kawakishi Bunzaburo's troops tonight."

"Sweeping across the surrounding counties of the Zhengtai Line, the county seats along the Zhengtai Line have basically been recovered now."

This was originally Yan Laoxi's sarcastic remark, but who would have thought.

Yan Laoxi makes up his mind that he should also play some trump cards tonight and fight a glorious, beautiful battle.

"If there are any problems that cannot be solved, report to me at any time, and I will do my best to solve them for you."

Yan Laoxi's Adjutant quickly receives Fu Zuoyi's battle report.

Taking advantage of the fact that there are no annoying matters recently, Yan Laoxi goes home to spend time with his wife and son.

On the door plaque of the residence, two large characters are written—Yan Mansion.

Jinyang!

Seeing that the Xinkou Battlefield has achieved results, he hurries to find Yan Laoxi.

This unit, Yan Laoxi originally did not intend to use on the Xinkou Battlefield.

"What is the matter?"

Hearing this, Yan Laoxi's brows knit slightly; this does not sound like Deng Xihou's style at all.

Inside the conference room, there are also some Staff Officers.

"At this moment, Commander Yan should be waiting anxiously."

"Tomorrow morning, I want the common people of Jinyang City to know as well."

"Good, good, good..."

Yan Laoxi went home to sleep tonight; he hadn't been home for a long time.

"In addition, the 18th Group Army is also harassing the strongholds around the Zhengtai Line."

"On the Xinkou Battlefield, the troops under my command annihilated over two thousand men of the 5th Division."

Taking the telegram handed over by the Adjutant, Yan Laoxi reads it carefully from beginning to end.

"A great victory!?" In an instant, Yan Laoxi's gaze freezes, "The telegram..."

Yan Laoxi gets into his exclusive vehicle and heads to the 2nd War Zone headquarters.

After speaking, Yan Laoxi asks Huang Shaohong: "Ji Kuan, is there any news from the Sichuan Army?"

"My Jin-Sui Army has achieved a great victory on the Xinkou Battlefield."

"Deng Xihou dispatched the 125th Division and 127th Division, with the strength of two divisions."

Fu Zuoyi smiles slightly, "I will report to Commander Yan immediately."

In Jinyang City, there is a large residence with two stone lions placed at the entrance; the residence is very grand.

Entering the conference room to take a look, it turns out Huang Shaohong had arrived long ago.

Looking at Fu Zuoyi, he grins: "Old Fu, let's send a great victory telegram to Commander Yan."

It's just that before the Datong Battle had even started, he had his home stolen by the devils.

"Commander!" Yan Laoxi's Adjutant says happily: "A great victory on the Xinkou Battlefield."

"I will definitely arrange it well."

This caused the Datong Battle he had meticulously prepared to vanish into thin air.

After the Datong Battle fell through, Yan Laoxi was constantly mocked by the people of the whole country, and even by the commoners of Jinyang.

Now that the Jin-Sui Army had achieved a great victory on the Xinkou Battlefield, Yan Laoxi needed this victory to wash away his previous infamy.

Yan Laoxi had always cared deeply about himself, and the battle he had organized in Datong previously.

"My Jin-Sui Army has finally held its head high, annihilating over two thousand of the enemy."

In a great mood, Yan Laoxi paced in his study, unable to hide the joy in his heart.

Of course, this kind of concern was by no means the concern of providing supplies to the Sichuan Army.

He looked at Huang Shaohong: "What about the Chuan'an Corps?"

"But has some emergency situation arisen in our 2nd War Zone?"

"Quickly give me the telegram; I will take a close look."

He headed straight for Yan Laoxi's room.

As the commander of the Jin-Sui Army, he was not an incompetent person either!

Fu Zuoyi's Adjutant, while speaking, handed the battlefield inventory to the two men.

Yan Laoxi was in a great mood: "Indeed!"

And just at this moment, Huang Shaohong's Adjutant walked quickly into the conference room.

"In Jin Province, I, Yan Laoxi, am also capable of fighting."

"Victory report from the Sichuan Army 22nd Group Army."

I... Yan Laoxi... I speak for myself—I can do it.

Regarding the Sichuan Army units, Yan Laoxi was still relatively concerned now.

"Hmm..." Yan Laoxi nodded, "You go and get busy."

Yan Laoxi was silent for a moment: "I feel that the 22nd Group Army must be brewing a big move."

"The 22nd Group Army is not preparing to fight Kawakishi Bunzaburo?!"

"Orderly, prepare the car immediately; I am going to the 2nd War Zone headquarters."

"Perhaps we will be able to receive a victory report in a while, such as a heavy blow to the Chuan'an Corps, and so on."

Tonight, the Jin-Sui Army participated in the counterattack, and Yan Laoxi even specifically committed a Division of the Jin-Sui Army with relatively strong combat effectiveness.

Suddenly, everyone's gaze also fell upon Huang Shaohong.

For this reason, Huang Shaohong teased Yan Laoxi, saying he even had the ability to predict the future.

He looked at his Adjutant: "Wenzhuo, arrange for the newspaper office immediately."

After Wei Lihuang received the inventory, he scanned it roughly.

Deng Xihou and Sun Zhen had actually sent a telegram to the 2nd War Zone regarding the annihilation of the 109th Division.

Ever since Deng Xihou and Sun Zhen's 22nd Group Army entered Jin Province, they had caused quite a stir.

"Now the 5th Division has already retreated!"

Huang Shaohong took the telegram and gave it a rough look.

Seeing Huang Shaohong's excited expression, Yan Laoxi grinned and said: "Speak quickly, what has the Sichuan Army 22nd Group Army done?"
