Bourne: Command and Conquer

Chapter 1195, The unexpected lobbyist

 “Cheng Yaojin!”

"arrive!"

Cheng Maojin walked in quickly.

He was often called by the wrong name by Zhang Yong. Get used to it.

Anyway, his own nickname is Cheng Yaojin. I feel like it’s good to be Cheng Yaojin.

Founding minister.

Still can die well.

rare.

"How many people are there in your temporary brigade?"

"Reporting to the specialist. Our brigade currently has 4,500 people."

"Where is the second temporary brigade?"

"Thirty-seven hundred people."

"oh."

Zhang Yong made a rough calculation.

That's about eight thousand people. The military strength is still relatively strong.

Open the system silently.

View troop parameters.

[Temporary First Brigade: 4953 people]

[Provisional Second Brigade: 4108 people]

Huh?

The numbers seem to be understated?

Sure enough, it was concealed again.

This is really a common problem in the national army.

In other national armies, the numbers are always exaggerated.

This guy Cheng Yaojin narrowed his report.

It may be that they are worried that if the numbers are too high, they will not be allowed to continue to recruit homeless Northeast Army soldiers.

At present, the Northeast Army soldiers wandering near Peiping have almost been recruited. But in other parts of North China, there are many more.

In addition, the anti-Japanese wave in Peking City was also rising. Many people signed up to join the army.

Most of them were absorbed into the 29th Army.

In fact, Zhang Yong advocated continuing to expand the army. After all, there are two brigades.

Over in the attendant's room, a hint of the commission has been conveyed. It’s about taking the initiative.

How can we take the initiative?

Of course it is stronger than the 29th Army.

In other words, there is enough power that the 29th Army cannot be underestimated.

It can influence the development of the situation in North China.

In fact, as long as Zhang Yong can recruit soldiers, the establishment is not a problem at all. All have military numbers.

The establishment was in Jiang's hands. He gives it to whomever he says.

It was just that the title of airborne troops was cancelled.

Reported to the attendant's room. Then report to Chiang Kai-shek. Lao Jiang directly assigned the designations of the two temporary brigades.

It’s not that it’s deliberately targeted. It's all caused by traditional consciousness. Why do you think your Air Force needs so many ground troops? It must be Xiaoyongzi who is messing around again.

The committee member likes to correct Xiao Yongzi's "mistakes" and teach him how to do things. Zhang Yong naturally followed the good deeds.

There is no way, the power is sent out. Are you going to rebel against the committee member over such a trivial matter?

Naturally, he is full of flattery. I don’t understand anything…

In fact, there is no need to open your mouth to flatter you. All he had to do was show his stupid and clear eyes, and the commissioner would understand immediately.

In fact, in many aspects, he does know how to delegate!

As a result, the appointment became even more exciting. I felt that the little guy was "very sincere" and I wanted to teach him step by step.

Hu Zongnan and others have been taught by him for the most part, and they have nothing to teach. Now Zhang Yong is here. He is still a blank piece of paper. He has never been to a military school, so he can naturally teach him well.

So what, how do you say it? You should rest assured if you taught it yourself!

Everyone else is a rebel.

Only Mr. Huangpu is the foundation of Jiang.

"Someone's coming."

"arrive!"

"Call Brigadier Yan Liang as well."

"yes."

Soon, Yan Liang also came.

He is now the temporary brigade commander of the second brigade.

The number of the airborne troops is gone. But there were two more brigades.

The designations of these two brigades are written in the sequence list of the Ministry of Military and Political Affairs. It's a regular number.

Although the name contains the word "Jiu", he is definitely not a motley crew.

If we start with his identity as Zhang Yong, he is a direct descendant.

The ultimate goal is to become two divisions. When the time comes, the two will be directly assigned a unified designation and then merged into one army. The military number is there.

It is extremely difficult for a miscellaneous army to have a military designation. But he is Zhang Yong...

"sit."

"yes."

"The 29th Army asked us to take over the defense in the direction of Wanping. This includes Wanping City, Marco Polo Bridge and Changxindian."

"real?"

Yan Liang suddenly stood up.

Zhang Yong:…

Do you want to be so excited?

It’s time to go to war! It’s not like I’m going to receive an award!

"I'll go!"

Cheng Yaojin spoke first.

At the same time, he reached out and held Yan Liang down. Say don't rob me.

"I'll go too!"

Yan Liang regretted his slow reaction.

Originally, he was the one who spoke first. The result misses the point.

"Wanping is not easy to guard..."

"Commissioner, don't worry. I will die there..."

"Shut up!"

Zhang Yong suddenly had a straight face. His face was grim.

Cheng Yaojin:? ? ?

Yan Liang:? ? ?

What's going on?

Why did you suddenly fall out?

This commissioner is good. But it can also be scary sometimes.

"I'm asking you to defend Wanping. I'm not telling you to go and die. If a person dies, but Wanping doesn't defend it, he's still a waste!"

"That…"

"The heavy artillery of the Japanese invaders is very destructive. No matter how brave you are, if you are bombed by the artillery, you will be wiped out. The Japanese invaders also have airplanes. They also have tanks. Especially airplanes. For the time being, we do not have very effective anti-aircraft weapons. Therefore, we cannot Hard fight."

"yes…"

"Be flexible and mobile. Don't be rigid. Only place a small number of troops in the Wanping ruins, one platoon at most, to monitor the Japanese invaders. If the Japanese invaders shell, don't worry about them. If the Japanese invaders infantry come up, use mortars to cover them. What we have to deal with is the Japanese infantry.”

"Understood."

"After destroying the Japanese infantry, the Japanese will naturally be unable to attack. The Japanese heavy artillery cannot bombard for a long time. They do not have so many artillery shells and cannot afford to consume them."

"yes."

"The main force of our troops must be dispersed behind Wanping and remain hidden."

"yes."

The two looked at each other.

Seems to understand a little bit. But I don’t fully understand.

Mainly this mobile defense is a bit new.

"Defending Wanping is one thing. On the other hand, we have to take the initiative. At present, the Japanese invaders' troops around Peiping are not particularly strong, maybe ten or twenty thousand people. There must be weak links. Send people out to conduct reconnaissance. , find the weak points of the Japanese invaders, and then launch a counterattack with more than five times the force to attack the weak points of the Japanese invaders."

Zhang Yong continued to enlighten the two of them.

They really don't understand. There are some tactics that I have never been exposed to before.

For them, all they are familiar with are offensive and defensive battles and positional battles. Everyone formed a formation facing each other.

However, the cruel reality is that the national army does not have such capabilities.

Setting up a battle array face to face with the Japanese invaders is doomed to failure.

Because you don't have enough heavy weapons.

Simply because they don't have air control, they are already at a disadvantage.

Continue to set up a battle array and fight the Japanese invaders head-on. The end result was a complete defeat. Defeat after defeat.

How important is air superiority?

It's the top of the food chain.

"Don't think it's dishonorable to use more to fight against fewer. It's absolutely fine to use one battalion to fight against one small group of Japanese invaders. Killing one Japanese invader is also a military achievement. Killing one small group of Japanese invaders at one time. Ten times is ten small groups."

"Because we do not have heavy weapons, we cannot effectively deal with the Japanese aircraft. Therefore, we must fight quickly. End the battle before the Japanese heavy weapons can react. Run away after the fight. Hide quickly."

"We can't just passively fight. We have to actively look for opportunities. To fight passively, the Japanese invaders are ready for everything. We have no chance of victory. We can only have sneak attacks. Only by surprise can we have the slightest chance."

Zhang Yong directly plagiarized the tactics of the Red Party.

Facts have proved that only in this way can we achieve some results.

The rigidity of the national army's tactics has penetrated deep into the bones. Zhang Yong cannot change it alone.

However, he hopes that the troops he "supervises" can learn a little flexibility. You can change your mind a little bit.

It is not mainly about conquering cities and territories.

Instead, we focused on destroying the effective forces of the Japanese invaders.

There are other troops attacking the city.

He, Zhang Yong, wanted to find fighter opportunities in the complex battlefield and decisively kill part of the Japanese invaders. Then he turned around and walked away coolly.

silence.

Quiet.

Both of them were silently pondering Zhang Yong's words.

There is no rush to go to Wanping anymore. You have to think carefully about what you need to do to complete the task.

Not only must we defend Wanping, but we must also minimize casualties, and we must take the initiative to attack. It's really not an easy task.

Zhang Yong:…

I know it's hard for both of them.

It is difficult for them to understand it in a short period of time.

but…

There are also ways to speed through.

That is…

Make a phone call first.

"Boss Qi, I have something to ask for help with."

"The Commissioner has spoken harshly."

"I am ready to take over the defense of Wanping, Marco Polo Bridge, and Changxindian. I am going to arrange for the temporary second brigade to take over the defense. I ask them to defend flexibly, reduce casualties, and take the initiative to eliminate the effective forces of the Japanese invaders. However, based on the current situation, Look, they're not good at this, so please help."

"How can I help?"

"Secretly arrange for a few people who know tactics to come over."

"I need to ask my superiors for instructions."

"In the future, these two brigades may fight north of the Yellow River, and may be upgraded to two divisions, or even form an army. You must seize the opportunity."

"Understood. I'll ask my superiors for instructions immediately."

"good."

Zhang Yong hung up the phone.

Cheng Yaojin and Yan Liang didn't understand. It doesn't matter. Someone understands.

What the Red Party is best at is this kind of tactics. With their guidance, he, Zhang Yong, directly became the hands-off shopkeeper.

You only need to pay attention to replenishing weapons and ammunition, ensuring the supply of food and wages, and don't worry about anything else.

return. I saw that the two of them were still thinking hard.

"Yan Liang!"

"arrive!"

"You take the second temporary brigade and set off immediately to take over the defense!"

"yes!"

"I will arrange some advisers for you later."

"yes."

Yan Liang agreed and went.

Cheng Yaojin hesitated to speak. Nothing was said in the end.

The task is a bit tricky.

Zhang Yong's requirements are a bit high. He hasn't thought about it yet.

"Your task is also very difficult."

"yes."

"You must guard Nanyuan Airport. This is a key point that the Japanese invaders will inevitably fight for. After the Japanese invaders arrive, they will definitely launch a fierce attack here. The strength may be more than one division."

"so much?"

Cheng Yaojin's eyes widened immediately.

A division!

joke…

That’s more than 20,000 people!

He only has more than 4,000 people for one temporary trip!

How could it be possible to withstand a single division of the Japanese invaders? I definitely can’t stand it!

The Japanese invaders also had aircraft, tanks, and heavy artillery...

"Yes."

"I…"

Cheng Yaojin suddenly felt that he lacked courage.

It would definitely not work to use one temporary brigade to fight one division of the Japanese invaders! It’s impossible to light everything.

"Commissioner..."

"I'm not asking you to fight the Japanese invaders. There's no point."

"That…"

"However, you need to attract the attention of the Japanese invaders at Nanyuan Airport and cover the retreat of brother troops in other directions."

"How many days do we need to guard it?"

"It's not clear at the moment. It will be determined based on the actual situation at that time."

"Will the Japanese invaders really send out a division?"

"Yes."

Zhang Yong answered affirmatively.

The Japanese invaders sent reinforcements to the Pingjin area, including several divisions.

The numbers of most divisions are within 20, and they are standing divisions. The combat effectiveness is equal to that of one. Very strong.

Especially the Fifth Division, the vanguard of the invasion of China. It was the one led by Seishiro Sakagaki.

Almost starting from North China, they conquered most of China.

It's like entering a deserted place.

That is to say, I was blocked at Kunlun Pass later.

"That…"

Cheng Yao's golden face has a bitter color. He hesitated to speak.

Obviously, he had no confidence at all in resisting a division of the Japanese invaders.

Zhang Yong sighed.

Very understanding of the other person's mood.

This is a normal person's reaction.

Guarding Nanyuan Airport is indeed a very difficult task.

With Cheng Yaojin's level, he probably wouldn't be able to come up with any new ideas. We still have to go get reinforcements when we turn around.

Where to move?

Of course it's Boss Qi's place.

Anyway, the organization behind him is full of talents.

Next month, the Eighth Route Army will officially debut. Then set off for North China.

Before that, it shouldn't be difficult to recruit some talents. There are people on the Eighth Road who know how to fight.

For example, who is Li Yunlong?

If there really is Li Yunlong. Bring him in. Ha ha!

A person as smart as Li Yunlong must not suffer a loss. Leave the troops to him, don't worry.

Anyway.

If you want money, go to the Japanese invaders.

If you want someone, go to the Red Party.

The Kuomintang and the Communist Party cooperate!

Perfect!

"I'll arrange a few people for you later."

"yes."

"Now, let's build defenses first. The main thing is to dig tunnels. The trenches should be dug deep and connected. Dig enough holes to hide soldiers in dry areas. The kind that can withstand Japanese aircraft bombing. The tunnels should be connected to each other. They can be quickly Mobilize troops."

"ah…"

Cheng Yaojin was dumbfounded again.

no. So complicated?

Is that still a war? They have all turned into mice!

I just know how to dig tunnels all day long!

"Do you want the whole army to be annihilated? If not, just dig a tunnel!"

"yes!"

"go!"

"yes!"

Cheng Yaojin hurriedly left as if he had been granted amnesty.

Zhang Yong frowned. I feel a little depressed. Finally, he reluctantly accepted the reality.

When other protagonists appear, they are all domineering and sideways. All its own attributes are 255, which is a heaven-defying existence. All the subordinates have attributes above 99.

Only he himself is mediocre. All attributes are mediocre. His subordinates are also mediocre.

I am not a genius.

There are no genius subordinates either.

In all the units he currently oversees, the commanders are mediocre.

Including Long Muhan, a first-year student in Huangpu, he didn't show any amazing talents. Do you feel like all the talent is on the side of the red party?

They are all Huangpu students. Huang Pusheng on the Red Party side is much better at fighting than those on the Fruit Party side.

One issue, surnamed Xu. A fourth phase, surnamed Lin. They all beat the national army to pieces. It's breathtaking.

"Report!"

"Come in."

"Reporting to the specialist, there is a boss Huang outside looking for you."

"What Boss Huang?"

"He said he was from Jidong."

"Jidong?"

Zhang Yong frowned.

Isn’t that Yin Ru’s land?

Coming from Jidong?

What's the meaning.

"Tell him to come in."

"yes."

The officer agreed and went.

After a while, a chubby businessman appeared.

Zhang Yong tilted his head and looked at each other. Is this the legendary lobbyist?

Sent by Yin Rugeng?

Was it sent by Yin Rugeng under the instruction of the Japanese invaders?

Persuade to surrender?

Or do you want to get back the assets plundered by Zhang Yong?

Because the addresses provided by Pan Yugui and Junjiro Tsuchiya almost match. Therefore, Zhang Yong sent people to loot all those properties.

All were transported back to Nanyuan Airport. Then put it on the plane and transport it away.

Because the amount of wealth was relatively large, five DC-3 transport planes came in succession.

Head tilted.

On the runway in the distance, a DC-3 transport plane just took off.

It is expected that all the property will be transported away today. Even if Yin Rugeng had great ability, it would be impossible to take it back.

"Mr. Commissioner..."

"Boss Huang, if you have anything to say, just say it."

"I'm here specifically to honor you. Please don't dislike me, Commissioner..."

"What do you honor me for?"

"Commissioner, please accept it. It's a trivial matter, not respectful..."

Boss Huang took out an envelope.

The envelope was soft and shriveled. It doesn't look like it contains banknotes.

Reach out and take it. Skillfully open the seal. I found a deposit receipt inside. It's from Citibank.

He held it up to his eyes and looked at it, and found that the number written on it was fifty thousand. Dollar.

oh? Fifty thousand dollars? This boss Huang is interesting.

He was very satisfied with this filial piety.

U.S. dollars!

favorite.

"Boss Huang, please sit down."

"Hey, hey!"

"Come here. Serve tea!"

Zhang Yong greeted warmly.

Fifty thousand dollars. Worth pouring the tea yourself.

The fragrance of tea lingers.

Be in a good mood.

Fifty thousand dollars. good. good.

He also said that he had not had US dollars in his account for a long time. Most of them are silver dollars.

"Boss Huang, if you have anything to say, speak directly."

"that…"

"Are you sent by Yin Rugeng?"

"no…"

"Yes. Needless to say. For the sake of the dollar, I won't take my anger out on you."

"It's really not true."

"oh?"

"Actually, we want you to expel Yin Rugeng..."

"oh?"

Zhang Yong was a little surprised.

The other party is actually not a lobbyist sent by Yin Rugeng?

Do you want to kill Yin Rugeng?

Hey!

Zhang Yong was immediately interested!

There's something going on!
