Chapter 189: The Little God of Wealth of the Sichuan Army
Huang Shaohong raised the telegram in his hand: "Deng Xihou's courage is truly great."
"He didn't manage to chew through the Chuan'an Corps, yet he directly led his troops north to attack Zhuozhou."
"The 122nd Division has already captured Zhuozhou."
Yan Laoxi was stroking his beard when he heard Huang Shaohong say this.
He pulled a bit too hard and yanked some of his beard out: "Ouch..."
The pain made Yan Laoxi grimace, and he was quite startled by himself.
"They say Liu Zhi is the 'Long-Legged General'; when fighting the devils, he runs the fastest!"
This batch of prisoners still needs to be disciplined by the Sichuan Army before being replenished into the troops.
Upon hearing this, everyone beamed with joy.
Being able to scrape together six mortars makes one the pride of the service branch.
In the command post, Fu Chang said: "Adjutant Yu, I have already had people notify them; they will arrive shortly."
To many Sichuan Army generals, the current Yu Hua is...
... a God of Wealth!
Under Yu Hua's arrangements, the 22nd Group Army fought a battle in Jin Province.
At the same time.
Many Sichuan Army generals looked at these weapons with envy.
After fighting a battle against the little devils tonight, these generals' pockets have also bulged.
Subsequently, Yu Hua also learned the origin of his nickname.
"Even if Terauchi Hisaichi dispatches Doihara Kenji's 14th Division to defend."
Although the Sichuan Army 22nd Group Army had re-equipped in Chang'an and Baoji.
Who would have thought that the Pingjin Area Army would be so incompetent tonight, allowing the attacking Sichuan Army units to make a fortune.
Deng Xihou stepped forward and lightly punched Yu Hua on the chest: "Good lad."
Yu Hua led his Reinforced Battalion to personally escort the Puppet Army prisoners.
What must be given to the 18th Group Army must be given; after all, this was agreed upon before the battle.
"According to previous intelligence, Isogai Rensuke's 10th Division is currently pursuing Han Fuqu in Shandong Province."
Plus, two other divisions fighting in the counties around the Zhengtai Line also seized a lot of the devils' supplies.
Calculating based on the number of men in a devil division, this is basically enough for the 22nd Group Army to use.
"The only unit that can be recalled to Zhuozhou is Doihara Kenji's 14th Division."
Having just returned to the station, Yu Hua hadn't even caught his breath before being dragged away by Liu Dashuai.
Following Yu Hua's methods, the 22nd Group Army made the devils howl in agony tonight.
"The train sent from Zhuozhou by the 122nd Division has arrived, and it is full of weapons."
All the Sichuan Army soldiers were glowing with health, just like new grooms who had just married their wives.
Liu Dashuai, Deng Xihou, and the others nodded in satisfaction.
The firepower of the 22nd Group Army had actually become this powerful.
"Zhuozhou is an important city for the Pingjin Area Army."
"My Sichuan Army will definitely fight to the death and will not let the people of the whole country mock us."
His gaze swept over everyone in the conference room: "Our army has now severely damaged the Pingjin Area Army."
The Sichuan Army officers all patted their chests and said: "Please rest assured, Commander."
Everyone also said they had made a fortune and become wealthy landlords.
"Would Terauchi Hisaichi be willing to give up the pursuit?"
How long has it been, and his troops actually possess Mountain Guns and Field Guns; this was something he never even dreamed of.
"You lad, analyze how our Sichuan Army should develop next?"
Tonight, the night raid on Zhuozhou resulted in the Sichuan Army making a killing.
Yu Hua stepped forward and came to the map hanging on the wall.
"He would!" Yu Hua nodded: "Liu Zhi performed very poorly in the Battle of Zhuozhou, and for Terauchi Hisaichi..."
Upon hearing this, Liu Dashuai also smiled and said: "Hmm, Yu Hua is right."
After Huang Shaohong finished speaking, the Jin-Sui Army generals in the conference room all widened their eyes.
In the conference room, the Sichuan Army soldiers sat down, all looking at Yu Hua, waiting for the Adjutant to analyze the war situation.
This was a map of the whole country, with the offensive plans of the devils and the Republic of China Army drawn on it.
"However, my Sichuan Army must never become 'Long-Legged Generals'."
Some generals also took out their notebooks.
Mountain Field Guns!
The units of the 22nd Group Army that had sortied were also returning one after another.
"Ahem..." Yu Hua cleared his throat: "The Pingjin Area Army is currently short on manpower."
Arriving at the command post, Yu Hua found the Sichuan Army generals.
Deng Xihou stood out at this moment: "You can laugh at Liu Zhi now, laughing is fine."
Deng Xihou ran into the command post, "Marshal."
Seeing Liu Dashuai teasing Liu Zhi, everyone laughed.
From a Group Army with no heavy weapons, it has now become a heavy-hitting group almost possessing two Mountain Field Gun Regiments.
Liu Dashuai shouted: "Is the map here?"
Zhuozhou is the provincial capital of Hebei Province.
Seeing that Yu Hua had arrived, these generals all greeted him.
Yan Laoxi truly did not expect that the Sichuan Army would dare to take the initiative to attack and capture Zhuozhou.
In an instant, the entire conference room fell silent.
"Come, come, come..."
Yu Hua had told Deng Xihou that the Sichuan Army was a force capable of making a great fortune and should not be calculating small accounts.
Hearing this, Yu Hua was somewhat stunned: "God of Wealth?"
The 18th Group Army also put in significant effort tonight; this is what they deserve.
"This Deng Xihou's courage is a bit too great."
The command post of the Sichuan Army 22nd Group Army.
Everyone had also seen the combat plan that Yu Hua personally formulated tonight.
Even Deng Xihou was now so happy that... he didn't even know which leg to step with first when walking.
"Marshal!"
From the day he began leading troops into battle, Deng Xihou had been terrified of poverty; back then, the Sichuan Army didn't even have Mountain Field Guns, let alone anything else.
"This kid Yu Hua says there is another batch behind; these are the supplies that arrived first."
"This Liu Zhi, in the Battle of Zhuozhou, really made a complete mess of things; even now, people are still cursing him in the newspapers!"
The generals within the 22nd Group Army were all very full of admiration for Yu Hua.
"Damn it, I finally understand why everyone calls you the God of Wealth."
According to Yu Hua's statement, the supplies in Zhuozhou City were enough for two Divisions to use.
"Is this calling me?!"
"Is he not afraid that the 122nd Division will be lost there?"
"According to Deng Xihou's telegram, the Japanese forces in the Zhuozhou area are empty."
Sun Zhen grinned and said: "Not bad, you are now known by the Sichuan Army by the nickname... Little God of Wealth."
It is equivalent to the spoils of war of an entire Group Army.
"The 122nd Division did not expend much effort to take down Zhuozhou."
At five o'clock in the morning.
Deng Xihou looked at the map, "The 14th Division, aren't they currently attacking Liu Zhi?"
They were all discussing how many supplies they had scavenged from fighting the Japanese this time.
The Japanese forces in the Pingjin Region were actually empty to such a degree.
"Withdraw the troops now, and we can just fight our way back later."
Yu Hua pondered for a moment: "Marshal!"
Seeing so many generals greeting him, Yu Hua responded to them one by one.
Regarding this, Yu Hua scratched his head in embarrassment; he just wanted to take advantage of the Japanese strategic shift to hit the Pingjin Area Army hard.
Marshal Liu also received the detailed telegram from the 122nd Division.
"The troops are currently on their way back."
Sun Zhen signaled from the side, letting Yu Hua continue speaking.
"Captured Zhuozhou?"
Although some of these supplies still need to be shared with the 18th Group Army.
However, the troops are still relatively poor.
"Terauchi Hisaichi certainly won't be willing to recall this unit, because the Pingjin Area Army wants to compete with the Japanese Navy for military merit."
"The Japanese in the Pingjin Region won't dare to launch an attack again."
"In the time to follow, it is estimated that there will be no war in Jin Province."
