Liang Xiao hurriedly said.

"It's okay, it's okay, you are a great hero, I welcome you on behalf of the people of Jin, and I will naturally be polite and considerate."

Yan Laoxi said with a smile on his face.

"Your courtesy is too thoughtful."

Liang Xiao smiled and got out of the car door.

"Last time I was here to greet you, and this time it's still here, but compared to last time, you Liang Feiyu has outstanding military exploits, and you killed the three 3rd regiments of the Fifth Division without making a sound. Just let the Fifth Division suffer a huge loss. Speaking of which, I, the commander of the World War II zone, have to thank you very much."

Yan Laoxi said.

"No need to thank you. It is the duty of our generation of soldiers to share the worries of the party and the country. When the country is in crisis, as a soldier, we should serve the country."

Liang Xiao spoke in high-sounding official language.

"Please."

Yan Laoxi politely asked Liang Xiao to leave first.

Liang Xiao was not polite, and walked forward with strides. The generals of the Jinsui Army at the gate saw him and stood at attention to salute, and he returned the salute while walking.

After the ceremony.

The generals of the Jinsui Army smiled brilliantly, just like seeing mountains of gold and silver.

Looking at their smiles, Liang Xiao always felt a bit creepy. Amid Yan Laoxi's laughter, he entered the headquarters compound.

Come to the conference room.

Sit in priority order.

Yan Laoxi expressed his views on his military exploits on the battlefield in the southeast of Shanxi this time.

"This time, in the three battles and three victories in the southeast of Shanxi, Commander-in-Chief Liang led the Central Army to beat the Fifth Division into a mess. As the saying goes, take advantage of his illness to kill him. We are strong and strong, and we are not afraid of little devils. This time I invite Liang The commander-in-chief came to the war zone to discuss the next stage of the battle. We made the little devil fight very badly before, and now it's time for us to avenge our revenge. We must let the little devil get out of Jindi."

Liang Xiao had long guessed that Yan Laoxi couldn't hold back anymore, but the fighting power of the Jinsui Army made him really dare not compliment him.

5Chapter 16 Theater Military Conference

Second Theater Command.

Liang Xiao and Yan Laoxi were laughing and talking nonsense.

Yan Laoxi wanted to communicate with Liang Xiao before the official meeting of the World War II zone, after all, they were all his own people, but the generals of the [-]th Army were not.

"Feiyu, thanks to you this time, many places in the southeast of Shanxi were able to recover, but the devils still occupy many cities in Jindi, especially Taiyuan and Linfen, as well as many cities in the west of Shanxi. What Yan meant was to strike while the iron is hot. The two of us Fang worked together to eat up the Devil's Fifth Division and completely recover Taiyuan."

Yan Laoxi said.

Yan Laoxi dreamed of going back to Taiyuan and continue to be his overlord of Jin.

This time, Liang Xiao annihilated the three 3rd regiments of the Fifth Division in one fell swoop, which gave him a ray of hope.

"Cooperation is for sure."

Liang Xiao chuckled, changed his voice, and said: "I heard that the cavalry unit under Commander Yan is really busy these days, why don't you give Liang some two thousand horses, and let Liang's subordinates also experience it?" The toughness of the North China Warhorse.”

Yan Laoxi was speechless for a moment, he had a cavalry army with about 8000 horses, since the start of the war, the cavalry army had been divided into six, with brigades as units, stationed near Wan County.

The cavalry army is the foundation of the Jinsui army, and it is also Yan Laoxi's family property that he saved with great difficulty. Now Liang Xiaoshi opened his mouth and asked him to ask for one or two thousand war horses. This is like bleeding his blood. willingly.

"Fei Yu was joking, didn't you just capture more than 2000 war horses from the Devil?" Yan Laoxi laughed.

"I want to form a cavalry brigade, but I only captured more than 2000 horses, which is still a little less than the number of cavalry brigades. I hope Commander-in-Chief Yan will give up his favor. Of course, to show sincerity, Liang will order the Central Army to resist Jin. The devils in the southeast, give Commander Yan a chance to annihilate the Fifth Division."

Liang Xiao said.

These words struck Yan Laoxi's heart. He invited Liang Xiao and the deputy commander-in-chief of the [-]th Army to discuss the war, and let the two armies resist the left and right: the Japanese army, buy time for the Jin army to attack the Fifth Division .

It's just that I didn't expect Liang Xiao to be so cunning. Before he could say anything, he had already guessed it, and even opened his mouth like a lion.

Yan Laoxi felt that he was quite unlucky. Since the Great War in the Central Plains, he has devoted himself to restoring the economy and people's strength in the three regions of Jin, Sui and Cha. He hoped that one day he could compete with the government in North China. , Most of the property he saved with great difficulty was taken by the devils, even the arsenal was taken by the devils.

Now here comes Liang Xiao, who is very good at beating devils, but his appetite is not small, for a while...stretch out his hand for military pay, for a while...for food and grass, now he wants war horses.

"Brother Feiyu, it's not that Yan refuses to agree to you, it's just that Yan's cavalry unit has a lot of horses. I gave you the horse, what will the soldiers do?"

Yan Laoxi cried bitterly.

"It doesn't matter, the change from cavalry to infantry is also to help fight against the little devils."

Liang Xiao said.

Yan Laoxi was... angry, just remembered that this time he wanted something from others, so it was not easy to show face, and said: "I can't agree to this condition. If Fei Yu has other demands, I just say no."

Liang Xiao shook his head slowly and sneered: "Commander Yan can give it to you.

It seems that there are only war horses. If you want territory, my 26th Army and 66th Army are stationed in Baoding and Zhengzhou. Moreover, the rich and prosperous places in Beijing, Shanghai and Hangzhou are all guarded by my troops. If you want guns and artillery, there is no shortage of them. The 30th Group Army is all equipped with German weapons, aircraft, artillery, tanks and armor, and requires troops. Liang has [-] million people under his command..." Yan Laoxi said "Brother Feiyu" , really must have a war horse......"

"Aside from... war horses, what else can Commander Yan give me?"

Liang Xiao said.

After thinking about it, Yan Laoxi found that what Liang Xiao said seemed to make sense. Apart from... war horses, he really didn't seem to be able to give anything.

"Fei Yu, I'll think about this matter again, and when I think it through, I'll give you an accurate word."

"Commander Yan has plenty of time to think slowly, don't be in a hurry, anyway...I'm in Wan County, when you figure it out, tell me when."

Liang Xiao made it clear this time...to blackmail Yan Laoxi, if he didn't give the horse, then he wouldn't send troops to help him.

"it is good."

Yan Laoxi smiled unnaturally.

after awhile.

The deputy commander-in-chief of the [-]th Army came, and Yan Laoxi sent the chief of staff out to greet him. Along with this...deputy commander-in-chief, there were also General Liu and other generals.

War Zone Conference Room.

Nuo Da's conference room is already full of officers.

Liang Xiao sat at the bottom of the left hand, after all, only he and Yan Laoxi are second-level generals here, and the others are lieutenant generals and major generals.

After the commanders of the [-]th Army came in, Yan Laoxi hurried up to shake hands with them, and said a few words of courtesy.

After speaking.

Yan Laoxi introduced Liang Xiao to them: "This is Liang Feiyu, the deputy commander of the World War II area, the commander in chief of the front line. I believe that even if you have never met him, you should have heard of his name. He is not an ordinary person. Since the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, countless little devils have died in his hands."

"General Liang Feiyu's name, those of us......... rough men in the mountains have heard of it."

The deputy commander-in-chief said, and after speaking, he took the initiative to shake hands with Liang Xiao.

See here.

Liang Xiao couldn't sit still, so he got up and shook hands with him, and exchanged a few pleasantries.

The meeting begins.

Yan Laoxi took the main seat and said: "The main reason for inviting you all here this time is... one thing. Our Jinsui Army is going to attack the Fifth Division, and I would like to ask you both to show solidarity."

"Commander Yan wants to attack Taiyuan"

The deputy commander said in surprise.

"Yes, the time for a decisive battle is ripe. Our Jinsui army is confident in driving the devils out of Taiyuan. Of course, we still need the full support of both of you."

Yan Laoxi said.

"What does Commander-in-Chief Yan want us to do?"

the deputy commander asked.

"Involve the ghost brigade in Northwest Shanxi and prevent them from supporting Taiyuan."

Yan Laoxi said.

Once the words are exported.

The deputy commander-in-chief is in trouble, and Master Liu is also in trouble. Their equipment is simple. If they want to contain the devils of a brigade, they have to... get involved...but if they don't agree Yan Laoxi, that is... to sabotage the War of Resistance.

"Don't worry, I won't ask you to help in vain. I have already asked people to prepare all the military supplies last month. As long as you can stop the devils in Northwest Shanxi, even if you... go bankrupt, I will fully support you."

Yan Laoxi spoke official Chinese.

5Chapter 17 Yan Laoxi has decided

The deputy commander-in-chief and Master Liu didn't speak, they knew very well that Yan Laoxi was using military pay to let them carry thunder.

As we all know, the devil's fighting power is too strong, a brigade has nearly 6 people, according to the previous casualty ratio, their [-]th Army must dispatch at least [-] people to fight a brigade of devils.

Of course, with their equipment and firepower, even with six against one, they might not be able to stop the devils, even if they were all involved, it would probably be enough.

"Commander Yan, may I ask if our [-]th Army is in the second theater sequence?"

the deputy commander asked.

"Of course it is."

Yan Laoxi nodded in confusion.

"Since it belongs to the battle order of the second theater, is it reasonable for you to pay us the military salary?"

the deputy commander asked.

"This......."

Yan Laoxi couldn't answer for a while, the deputy commander-in-chief was right, but the problem is, what is the nature of the 1th Army, but anyone with a little brain knows that the government threw them to the second theater, That is... a [-] landmine was buried in the land of Jin. Someone Jiang wanted to use his hands to curb the development of the [-]th Army, and also to use the hands of the [-]th Army to weaken his strength. This point , his heart is like a mirror.

It's just that Mr. Jiang's move is a conspiracy, even if he knows it well, it won't work.

However, he will not sit still. For example, in terms of military pay and supplies, except for his own troops, he has never distributed the food, grass and military equipment of other troops on time, including the Central Army. Still have to delay for a few more days.

"The deputy commander-in-chief is right, but you have to be considerate of me. It's not that I, Yan, refuse to pay the army. It's because I have enough energy and energy. The devils occupy most of Jin's land, and the tax revenue is not even our own life. If you can’t keep it up, there is still surplus military spending, don’t worry everyone, my 34th Army has not paid military pay for two months, if the government still doesn’t allocate military spending to us in World War II, we probably won’t be able to survive.”

Yan Laoxi doesn't know anything else, he is an expert in complaining, and he sighs, making people believe it is true.

"Without military expenses, why don't we let the soldiers of our [-]th Army take fire sticks to fight devils?" the deputy commander stared.

"Now is a special situation. When we capture Taiyuan, the situation will improve. At that time, I will definitely make up your [-]th Army's military salary."

Yan Laoxi patted his chest and said.

He said so, what else can the deputy commander-in-chief say, you can't chase after him.

"Our [-]th Army is short of food and ammunition, and we don't have heavy weapons. If we want to stop the devil brigade in Northwest Shanxi, we are not sure. But if we just want to contain them and prevent them from reinforcing Taiyuan, we can still do it with all our strength. Of course, we can contain the devils for a week at most, if your ministry can’t take Taiyuan within a week, it’s none of our business.”

The meaning of the deputy commander-in-chief is very clear. They only restrained them for seven days. After July [-], the devils supported Taiyuan and had nothing to do with him.

Yan Laoxi couldn't help looking at Liang Xiao, he didn't have much confidence in seven days, but if Liang Xiao was willing to help him, he would be willing to take a gamble.

But Liang Xiao didn't say a word about it, and asked Yan Lao with his eyes, as if he couldn't see it.

"Fei Yu, what do you think?"

Old West asked.

"Liang will urge the Central Army to defend the southeast of Shanxi. As for how long it will last, I can't guarantee it."

Liang Xiao said lightly.

Yan Laoxi is an old man, and seeing Liang Xiao's expression, he knew that the other party was thinking about his two thousand horses.

He couldn't help hesitating, not knowing how to make a decision.

Without the full support of the Central Army and the [-]th Army, he transferred all the main forces of the Jinsui Army to the battlefield. Once the devils from these two directions attacked, the Central Army and the [-]th Army sold him out in order to preserve their strength. , then his loss is not just a star and a half.

"Fei Yu, I heard that your New Tenth Army is stationed in Maling Town. Could you ask them to attack from the southeast and join forces with my Jinsui Army in Yangquan, and then join forces to attack Taiyuan?"

Yan Laoxi asked.

"The New Tenth Army has fought several battles in a row and suffered heavy losses. It will not be able to participate in combat missions for a while."

Liang Xiao flatly rejected Yan Laoxi's proposal.

Seeing Yan Laoxi frowning Lao Gao, he whispered a few words to the adjutant, and the adjutant came to Liang Xiao's side and passed the words to Liang Xiao.

After Liang Xiao heard this, he smiled slightly, even if Yan Laoxi was an iron rooster, he still had to pull out his hairs.

"Although the New Tenth Army has suffered losses on the battlefield, the 97th Army is still intact, and its combat effectiveness is very strong. Let the 97th Army advance from the southeast and return to Yangquan with the Jin Army. How?"
