Chapter 303: Brigade Commander, this Old Li of ours must have had a spell
After communicating with Yu Hua!
Deng Xihou and Sun Zhen also decided to convene a military conference.
Currently, the 22nd Group Army is short on food.
Following Yu Hua's suggestion, they will try attacking Pingyao City to test the waters.
Sun Zhen looked at several Division Commanders and grinned, saying: "Just a moment ago."
"We established contact with Adjutant Yu."
"He is currently located in Northwest Shanxi, together with the 18th Group Army."
The 122nd Division Commander, Wang Mingzhang, stood up: "Commander!"
It is very likely that it will not be like this!
At present, everyone is also very eager to hear Adjutant Yu's opinion.
As he spoke, Li Yunlong pointed to his own head: "Brigade Commander, back when I, Old Li, was practicing martial arts in my hometown."
The troops are in urgent need of rest and reorganization; they cannot continue fighting!
After establishing contact with the Sichuan Army 22nd Group Army, Yu Hua did not leave the command post.
He figured out the troop deployment of the entire Pingyao City.
After the Japanese Army occupied Pingyao City, they quickly dispatched a regiment of the Jing'an Army to assist.
He slipped from Zhao Village directly to the Brigade Headquarters.
When this kid sticks his butt up, he knows what kind of shit he is about to take.
Instead, he stayed for the time being!
Upon learning that the Sichuan Army intended to attack Pingyao, Brigade Commander Chen immediately contacted Yu Hua.
Brigade Commander Chen saw Li Yunlong arrive, "I say, Li Yunlong."
In Northwest Shanxi!
He smiled and said: "Oh!"
"Doesn't your kid usually dislike coming to the Brigade Headquarters?"
"Adjutant Yu asked us to attack Pingyao."
"Now you've run to the Brigade Headquarters?"
"At that time, it must have been that I was having a spell; when a person has a spell, they are bound to talk nonsense."
Sun Zhen nodded: "Fine!"
"That's rare!"
"Since that's the case, how could my 18th Group Army be absent from attacking Pingyao City?"
Hearing Brigade Commander Chen's words, Li Yunlong hurriedly let go.
"My master trained this head of mine to be big; now this head is slightly too large."
When fighting alongside the Sichuan Army 22nd Group Army, the Eighth Route Army has never suffered a loss and has always gained quite a bit each time.
After finishing speaking, Deng Xihou looked at everyone: "Do you have any other opinions?"
With such a small number of people guarding Pingyao City, the forces are indeed sparse.
While Li Yunlong was chatting nonsense with Brigade Commander Chen!
Yu Hua arrived at Brigade Commander Chen's office; the moment he saw Yu Hua.
Brigade Commander Chen knew that this kid Li Yunlong must have heard some wind and came to the Brigade Headquarters specifically to scout for information.
If things go wrong!
This small-scale battle might evolve into a large-scale battle.
Right now!
Looking at his anxious appearance, he must have gone to cozy up to Yu Hua.
"How come the sun has risen from the west?"
"It's just... I've had some free time lately!"
Yu Hua looked at Li Yunlong and smiled: "Brother Yunlong, don't be anxious!"
"Are we having a major military operation?"
"According to the intelligence obtained by Adjutant Yu, there is a large amount of food in Pingyao City."
Old Li's eyes lit up: "Brother Yu!"
People from the 122nd Division entered the city under the guise of delivering food, and after wandering around inside the city for three or five days.
"Second, if we want to survive and take root in Jin Province, we cannot do without the support of the common people."
"Sometimes my head gets muddled!"
After all, the Sichuan Army 22nd Group Army's ability to break the calculations of the Nanjing Command one by one relied entirely on Adjutant Yu.
This was also due to Adjutant Yu's well-laid plans; if the Marshal had not suddenly passed away from illness, the Sichuan Army's war situation in Jin Province...
Brigade Commander Chen flipped through the book in his hand and glanced at Li Yunlong.
As everyone knows, in Old Li's concept, he, Li Yunlong, is greater than the Heavenly King, and greater than the little Japanese Emperor.
"My 122nd Division is willing to serve as the vanguard and go to scout it out."
Li Yunlong placed the spoils of war he was holding onto the table.
Brigade Commander Chen decided that his 386th Brigade could not miss this opportunity for battle now.
"Back then, my master made me hit my head against a stone tablet."
"We will take Pingyao City, open the granaries to distribute food, and let the common people survive so they can get close to our Sichuan Army."
As he spoke, Li Yunlong walked quickly toward Yu Hua, and he whispered in Yu Hua's ear: "Brother Yu!"
"People are starving to death in the city every day!"
Brigade Commander Chen smoked a Cigarette, exhaled a white ring of smoke, and looked at Li Yunlong: "Li Yunlong!"
However, the location of Pingyao City is very important because it is right next to Jinyang.
"If we want to attack Pingyao City now, we must first figure out the troop deployment inside the city."
The headquarters of the 386th Brigade of the 129th Division.
"We are attacking Pingyao first to solve our food supply and get through the current difficulties."
Moreover, if things go wrong, it could trigger a chain reaction and lead to a full-scale battle in the Second War Zone.
"According to the current defense zone of my Group Army, my 122nd Division is the closest to Pingyao City."
Brigade Commander Chen pointed at Yu Hua and said: "Everyone says you kid have many clever ideas and your brain turns fast."
"Tell your brother the truth!"
"As expected!"
"The Japanese Army has built a large granary here, and the grain from several nearby counties is all stockpiled here."
"I've never seen you this proactive before."
After reconnaissance, the Sichuan Army 22nd Group Army learned that the Japanese Army's strength in Pingyao City was not high, with only two Infantry Companies and one cavalry company.
Therefore!
In general, the Japanese Army's strength is over six hundred men, plus the 1,500-man Jing'an Army.
Plus!
The 22nd Group Army and the 23rd Group Army have been fighting very well in the Jin Province and Jiangzhe areas.
After the meeting, Wang Mingzhang dispatched troops to Pingyao City to conduct reconnaissance.
When they occasionally went out, the cavalry and infantry always moved together.
Old Li did not know where he got the news from.
"You've been at the brigade headquarters for these days, and I haven't been able to eat well."
"Holding onto Adjutant Yu for so long, can't bear to let go?"
After all, Adjutant Yu is the little God of Wealth of the Sichuan Army.
Deng Xihou spoke first: "Everyone!"
"Brother has missed you to death!"
"Hasn't it been a while since I, Old Li, reported the situation to the brigade headquarters?"
"Every time you report for work, you kid shout loudly and don't like running to the brigade headquarters."
"It must be that you damaged your brain when you were practicing martial arts back then."
"Brigade Commander!" Li Yunlong said with a cheeky grin: "I, Old Li, might have been sick before."
"It seems that it really is just as the rumors say."
"Just came to the brigade headquarters to report on work."
"Great!" Upon hearing this, everyone saw that Yu Hua was not surprised, and they all breathed a sigh of relief.
"Brigade Commander!"
"Since that is the case, let Division Commander Wang dispatch a unit to sneak into the city for reconnaissance."
"Li Yunlong, oh Li Yunlong... this is you taking the initiative to run to the brigade headquarters."
Yu Hua understood Brigade Commander Chen's worries, and he only said one sentence to Brigade Commander Chen.
Brigade Commander Chen reacted immediately!
Then he laughed loudly: "Hahaha..."
Once the Sichuan Army attacks Pingyao City, the Japanese Army in several important nearby cities will definitely come to assist.
"I've already heard the wind!"
This unit is guarding Pingyao City, and the troops do not go out at all.
Upon hearing this!
"Division Commander Wang's proposal is very good."
Pingyao City is too close to Jinyang, so attacking Pingyao now is indeed a bit difficult.
Soon!
"Brigade Commander, look at my head."
"After spring comes, we will plant crops again and build things ourselves."
"You are missing your wife!"
Whether it is the Central Army, the Jin-Sui Army, or the 18th Group Army, they have been fighting in Jin Province for three months.
However, Brigade Commander Chen is older than Li Yunlong.
Therefore, upon hearing Brigade Commander Chen speak, Old Li was like a mouse seeing a cat.
