Chapter 331 Have you heard of Old A? In the third theater, Li Zongren looked at the telegrams from Zhang Fakui and Xue Yue, fell into deep thought, and did not speak for a long time. If it were just a fourth theater, Li Zongren would at most think that he had the idea of making a comeback. As a result, when Xue Yue from the Ninth War Zone also sent a telegram, he really fell into deep thought. The first telegram was sent by Cun Yunsheng to Zhang Fakui, which meant making a friend. Li Zongren naturally had a certain understanding of Cun Yunsheng. For Zhang Fakui's sake, he just said he would consider Cun Yunsheng's suggestion. What a joke. Jiangcheng is a fortified city, it cannot be taken down so easily. Although he was very excited about the great military exploits after taking Jiangcheng.
But in reality, if they want to capture Jiangcheng, the Gui army must pay a heavy price. Let the Central Army attack? Don't think about it, there's no chance. Let other motley crews attack? People won't do it if it doesn't do any good. Moreover, the casualties were huge. What could he use to supplement the opponent? Although Cun Yunsheng proposed to support three to five artists. It made him very excited, but he thought about it for a while. The bait is good, but not enough. Five art masters are only enough to arm the Gui army. What about the other miscellaneous armies? Allocate one or two divisions to a miscellaneous army? To be honest, he couldn't do it either. You must know that the fifth theater has jurisdiction over a total of 26 infantry divisions, 1 cavalry division, and hundreds of thousands of troops. It seems like a lot, but there are also a lot of Japanese troops that need to be defended. Except for a few divisions belonging to the Central Army, the others were miscellaneous armies, including the Northwest Army, the Northeast Army, and the Sichuan Army, plus the Gui Army directly under him. There are so many miscellaneous troops, and five art masters are really not enough. More importantly, Jiangcheng is a fortified city and cannot be taken down so easily. This was the reason why he kept delaying. But it's different now. According to Xue Yue of the Ninth War Zone, the Japanese troops in Jiangcheng have been mobilized.
The number of defenders in the city was only about 10,000 at most. If the Gui army leads the main force in a surprise attack, there is still a great hope of taking it directly. After reading Xue Yue's telegram, Li Zongren was really moved. If we capture Jiangcheng, won't we leave our mark in history? Can it even go further? Who doesn’t want to make progress? "Sir..." Lieutenant General Zhang Shouling, a full-time senior staff officer in the Commander-in-Chief's Office, looked at the frowning Li Zongren and said. "Don't you know how to choose?" This general of the Northwest Army became his senior adviser after his ears were blown away by the Japanese army. Although he lost his real power, it still had a certain impact on the Northwest Army. "Yes, if we can successfully regain Jiangcheng, it will greatly enhance the influence of the Gui clan." Li Zongren expressed his thoughts without hesitation. "But you also know that Jiangcheng is a fortified city. If you want to capture Jiangcheng, you will probably have to pay a heavy price." "Although those divisions of the Central Army can be mobilized, they will definitely find reasons to delay the offensive rhythm." "So we can only count on other troops." "Sir, other miscellaneous troops may not be so easy to control if they are not beneficial." Lieutenant General Zhang Shouling chuckled. "That's right." Li Zongren admitted immediately. "The telegram from Zhang Fakui states that the Sichuan Army in the south can promise to support five art masters, but there will be additional conditions." With that, he told the conditions for the railway immigrants that had been proposed by the Sichuan Army. Hearing this, Lieutenant General Zhang Shouling's eyes lit up. He did not expect that the Sichuan Army Corps would be so courageous. "Sir, I think I can agree to it. This is a feat for thousands of families to create Buddhas and countless living people." "Now that Henan Province has been hit by a disaster, millions of refugees are fleeing to all directions. The Japanese army has also taken this opportunity to expand the number of puppet troops. If this continues, it will have a great impact on us." "I know what you said. I don't think the Sichuan Army's move is bad. It's just like when they broke into Guandong. The people inside the Guan could not survive, so they fled outside the Guan, and finally survived." "But I think five art divisions are not enough, and I just learned that the Sichuan Army also has an armored regiment and an artillery regiment." "How long has it been since you got so much equipment?" Li Zongren said with envy. If his Gui army had so much equipment, they would have recaptured Jiangcheng long ago. "Can we talk to the Sichuan Army Corps?" Lieutenant General Zhang Shouling said directly. "Well, let's express our intentions first. It would be best to add an art mechanic, and it would be best to have a heavy artillery regiment to help us attack the enemy." Li Zongren directly stated the conditions he had prepared long ago. "Sir, you are too greedy." Lieutenant General Zhang Shouling looked helpless.
"Try it, maybe they will agree." … "Take a seat, as of now, our number of immigrants has exceeded two million." Lin Yi, who has not shown up at the Hanoi Governor's Mansion, reported the latest news to Cun Yunsheng. At this moment, Lin Yi had a smile on his face. Especially after taking Hanoi, he began to divide the fields. It really attracted many immigrants, so that their immigration speed increased greatly. Basically, there were thousands or even thousands of people every day. Thousands of people came here to settle down. At the current rate, it will take at most half a year to reach five million people. no way! After years of war, those who cannot survive can only find a place to survive. Just like those who broke into Guandong back then. Risking your life to break into Guandong, isn't it just to survive? Now that I can live a better life without taking too many risks, I am naturally willing to go south. "It's still too little." Hearing that there were only two million, Cun Yunsheng shook his head, still feeling that it was too little. It seems like a lot, but there aren't many people who have actually read the book. Now he has a lot of weapons waiting for people to operate. What's the result? There are too few people who are literate and have read books. The equipment obtained from Germany requires knowledgeable people to operate it. Let’s not talk about knowledge! At least literate. According to the current literacy rate, there are basically not many people who can read. Anyone who can write his or her name can have a good job. After all, the equipment is waiting for people to operate it. There was no other way, so Cun Yunsheng asked Lin Yi to set up a literacy class to teach those people how to read. Although Meng Fanle's father was a rotten scholar, he still had good attainments in Chinese studies. It is very suitable for literacy. "Huh? There are not many?" Lin Yi felt that there were already a lot of people. But Cun Yunsheng still seemed dissatisfied with his appearance. "Yes, it's too little. It needs to be doubled at least ten times." Cun Yunsheng said with a sigh. "Don't forget, there is still so much land waiting to be distributed?" "How long will it take if we just plant it ourselves?" "Now the 60th Army of the Yunnan Army is changing its equipment in Bangkok. After they complete the change, they will cooperate with Duan Zhenguo's new regiment to attack Borneo and completely wipe out the remnants of the Siamese royal family." "By then, there will be a lot of fertile land in these places. Waiting for us to settle.” "Although there are many Chinese Americans there, it is still not enough. Our power must penetrate there."
Hearing this, Lin Yi was completely autistic. He was a little complacent at first, but now it seems that it is not enough. "Find a way to increase the intensity." Cun Yunsheng patted Lin Yi's shoulder and said solemnly. Hearing this, Lin Yi felt deeply responsible and nodded quickly, followed by various questions. "Sit down, in this case, the money that needs to be consumed will be an astronomical amount." Lin Yi took a deep breath and said. With just two million people, if it hadn't been for the issuance of bills, the Sichuan Legion's finances would have collapsed long ago. "It's okay. You don't have to worry about money. Feel free to do it boldly. You don't have to ask me for approval on everything. You can just decide some small things by yourself. Since I leave the civil affairs to you, I naturally trust you very much." Cun Yun Sheng knew Lin Yi's concerns. This little red guy was still too timid and couldn't let go of many things. It's a start-up now, and everything is growing wildly. As long as it's not a matter of principle, Cun Yunsheng basically turns a blind eye. If the water is clear, there will be no fish! Just ignore the smallest things. After Lin Yi left, Meng Fanxiao spoke. "This is a telegram from the Fifth War Zone. They agree with our request in principle, but they ask for an additional art division and a heavy artillery regiment. They believe that Jiangcheng is a fortified city, and heavy artillery is needed to remove those fortifications and strongholds. " Hearing this, Cun Yunsheng was slightly angry. Five artists are not enough? Do you want to add an artist and a heavy artillery regiment? Although this part was purchased with oceans. But it will still be spent later when you immigrate. To put it bluntly, the left hand goes in and the right hand goes out. What I got was some immigrants. "This Chief Li is still too ambitious. With six art masters, he wants to completely conquer the hearts of those miscellaneous troops." After a long time, Cun Yunsheng sighed slowly. He had already guessed the opponent. idea. "Then do you agree?" Meng Fanlie knew that there were almost four art masters accumulating arms in the warehouse during this period, and it would be no problem to add them together. As immigration increased, the capacity of military factories increased. Especially after the indigenous people were sent to mine, the mining efficiency was greatly improved and the cost was reduced a lot. "Let me think about it." Cun Yunsheng hesitated for a while. There were six art masters, plus a heavy artillery regiment. The fifth theater is about to rise completely. I'm afraid he is strong enough to compete with Yamashiro. According to his understanding, there seemed to be only six or eight art masters in Shancheng. But there is no heavy artillery regiment in the mountain city. "I can agree, but if the price is doubled, I can use minerals as collateral." Cun Yunsheng remembered that Guangxi Province has a lot of mineral resources.
Apart from anything else, if you need a few mines, it’s not too much to mine them yourself, right? When the time comes, you can open a few silver mines, gold mines, etc.? Isn’t it just a matter of blood? "Will they agree?" Meng Fangliao asked worriedly when he heard that the price would be doubled. "Don't worry, he will definitely agree." "As long as he is ambitious, he will definitely agree. With six art masters and a heavy artillery regiment, even if Shancheng wants to spend a lot of money to buy it, there is no way." "If I provide them with channels now, he will definitely not give up." Cun Yunsheng said confidently. "Yes, please visit Yingming." … "Sir, let's take this thing to raid the enemy's headquarters next?" In a secret base in Bangkok, a special operations team member looked at the glider in front of him and said to Long Wenwen. "This..." Long Wenwen looked at the glider in front of him and frowned slightly: "Don't ask me, this is my first time seeing this thing. I don't know if it is reliable or not." This sentence was the last thing I couldn't help but complain about. He felt that the thing in front of him looked like a toy and looked very unreliable. The special operations brigade is divided into two parts, one part is formed from the reconnaissance battalion led by Dong Dao. Part of it was expanded from the special agent company led by Long Wenwen. In addition to the original Sichuan regiment, the members also recruited some Kachin warriors and some Chinese. In order to distinguish the difference from Dong Dao's special operations brigade. Cun Yunsheng directly named Long Wenwen's special operations brigade Lao A. As for Long Wenzhang's question about why he is called Lao A, Cun Yunsheng gave a direct explanation. One is to win by surprise: A is the card that is always hidden in the playing cards. It is only taken out at the most critical moment to achieve the effect of winning by surprise. Just like playing cards to catch the old A, the old A usually hides and tucks in, and plays a key role at critical moments. The other two are cunning soldiers: wars or military operations often require the use of cunning and covert strategies and means. The old A unit is highly confidential and mysterious, and its actions and true intentions are often not known to the outside world, reflecting the characteristics of "soldiers' tricks". After listening to Cun Yunsheng's statement, Long Wenzhang was completely convinced. Can he make a trick out of a card game? This card game was also brought by the US military instructors. So Long Wenwen naturally knows. "Sir, I don't like hearing what you said. Why are you so unreliable?" Although the last sentence was very quiet, it was still heard by Wang Le, who was responsible for piloting the glider, and he immediately became unhappy. At first, he felt the same way. This thing was very unreliable, and it felt like it could crash at any time. But after he actually used it, he realized that this thing was so easy to use. You must know that Cun Yunsheng paid a lot of money to get these gadgets from the German army.
He also wanted to form his own parachute unit. The glider is currently the most suitable unit for him. "Reliable?" Long Wenwen looked surprised. "You can't lie to me. It's just like a toy. A plane is not like an airplane. Is it really reliable?" "Don't worry, it's absolutely reliable. We have flown it many times." Wang Le assured, patting his chest. "Okay, since you all say it's okay, let's board the plane..." After saying that, Long Wenwen turned around and greeted the old team member A behind him to board the plane. … "Hey! What is this?" In the Siamese Army position in North Borneo, a Siamese Army soldier looked at the glider in the sky and asked with confusion. This thing is really too unfamiliar to them. "Plane?" "How is it possible? This is definitely not an airplane." The Siamese soldier denied flatly: "I have seen airplanes with two wings. Well, these are also two wings, but why are they so slow? And this is too Is it too small?” "This is completely different from a normal airplane." Their army was the remnant of the Siamese Army. After retreating from Bangkok, they established a new defense line in the southernmost part. I originally thought that the enemy to the north would continue to pursue them, but in the end, they did not appear. Over time, they relaxed their vigilance, and now they were very surprised when they suddenly saw UFOs appearing in the sky. "Isn't it coming from the north?" the squad leader guessed. "How is that possible? Our security posts are spread out more than ten kilometers away. If we find the enemy, we will definitely give an early warning." Shamelessly asking for a monthly ticket!
