Zhao Zhiguo is his good friend, and Jin Suijun is his identity as Cao Jiyu.

When Cao Jiyu told the truth, he must have offended one of his own people. If he didn't tell the truth, the obvious things in front of him would remind him to tell lies.

"What does Secretary Qiu think?" Cao Jiyu asked.

"Hahaha"

Qiu Zian laughed, making Cao Jiyu a little confused.

"I didn't expect that the atmosphere in the officialdom would make the most promising colonel commander of the Jinsui Army hesitate to speak and dare not express his views. How sad!"

After Qiu Zian finished laughing, he shook his head helplessly.

Obviously Qiu Zian has already realized that certain problems are deeply rooted in the Jinsui Army.

And this disease may not be solved for several generations.

A young and promising officer like Cao Jiyu no longer dares to tell the truth. Who will dare to tell the truth in the future?

"I came to Pingcheng often before the Japanese army coveted Pingcheng." Qiu Zian said, "Pingcheng under the rule of the Eighth Route Army was far more prosperous and lively than it was then. Do you know why?"

"Please ask Secretary Qiu for advice!"

Today's Pingcheng has not escaped the clouds of war, but the prosperity here can still be seen.

Obviously, Pingcheng under the rule of the Jinsui Army was not prosperous at first, and it was not because of the war.

Cao Jiyu also wanted to know what was so magical about the Eighth Route Army.

"The Qing government is harmonious, and An'an is far away!" Qiu Zian said, "Our Shanxi-Sui army is far behind."

Cao Jiyu did not expect that Qiu Zian would dare to point out the problems in the Jinsui Army so openly.

But Cao Jiyu was still curious, since Mr. Yan had such understanding people around him, why was the Jinsui Army still in such a mess.

"The confusion on your face is getting more and more. I can't answer you many questions. As time goes by, you will understand."

Qiu Zian saw the confusion on Cao Jiyu's face. In fact, Cao Jiyu's confusion was also the answer in Qiu Zian's mind.

In fact, he was well aware of the hidden dangers buried in the Jinsui Army, but if these hidden dangers were eliminated, the Jinsui Army would face a battle to cure the poison.

Not all people are Guan Erye, who can calmly fight alone without changing their expressions. Most of them will definitely die if they scrape their bones to cure the poison.

"Okay, let's take a walk. Coming to Pingcheng is like revisiting the old place. We won't have to see it once." Qiu Zian felt a little regretful.

In fact, Qiu Zian had already felt that the Jin-Sui Army might never return to Pingcheng.

"Does Mr. Yan think so too?"

"Perhaps he already thinks so, so he asked us to fight for the interests of annexing the state."

Mr. Yan may have realized that Pingcheng and Jinyang, the three cities originally controlled by the Jinsui Army, would become the history of their Jinsui Army.

If they don't fight for power to merge with the state, their Jinsui Army will really have no place to settle down in the future.

"How sure are we?" Cao Jiyu asked.

"It's very small, but it's not without hope. Our hope depends on you." Qiu Zian said.

"I?"

Cao Jiyu's face was full of confusion.

"I heard that you had a fatal friendship with Zhao Zhiguo?"

As Qiu Zian's capable general beside Mr. Yan, how could he not know that Zhao Zhiguo had close friendship with some officers in the Jinsui Army.

Especially the relationship with Cao Jiyu, it seems that the relationship between the two is that of half-brothers.

"I am very familiar with him, but..." Cao Jiyu knew Zhao Zhiguo very well, "but he is not a person who acts on impulse. Feelings are feelings, and interests are interests. He knows the difference very clearly."

Interests should never be mixed with emotions, and feelings should never be mixed with interests.

"There are some major generals with extraordinary status in the Jinsui Army. They did not work hard on the battlefield. They just did some things that were beneficial to the Jinsui Army." Qiu Zian said, "You are only one step away from the major general, right?

"

Promoting from colonel to major general is easy but also difficult!

Some people spend their entire lives without climbing from colonel to major general.

But some people easily become major generals just because of someone else's words.

"I...I...don't want to take advantage of our friendship," Cao Jiyu said.

The friendship between him and Zhao Zhiguo is very pure.

Now that he was asked to mix some benefits into this relationship, Cao Jiyu felt unspeakably uncomfortable.

"There is nothing in the world that cannot be used. Love, friendship, and family affection are our best weapons. If the Jinsui Army loses its place in the future and the locals want to use these feelings again, you will find that,

They are the weakest. Use them as much as possible while they are still available, otherwise I will not bring you to Pingcheng."

At this moment, Cao Jiyu finally understood why he received a very hasty order.

Now, at the last moment when this order was issued, the name of Cao Jiyu, who was accompanying him, was added.

This is also the reason why Zhao Zhiguo didn't know that Cao Jiyu was coming to Pingcheng.

In Mr. Yan's eyes, Cao Jiyu was just a pawn in the Jin-Sui Army.

After Zhao Zhiguo, he is the youngest colonel commander in the Jinsui Army and the most promising officer. What a gorgeous coat it sounds like.

Only Mr. Yan knows how much invisible dirt lies under this gorgeous coat.

The originally lively scene on the street no longer appealed to Cao Jiyu, and everything became exchangeable interests.

And he only wants pure feelings, this kind of brotherhood, which transcends life and death, and only fights for the country.

Fighting for the country seems to have become a luxurious dream, turning into fighting for Mr. Yan.

Qiu Zian then said something, but Cao Jiyu didn't listen to a word.

In Cao Jiyu's mind, two words kept popping up—profit!

He wants to turn the relationship between him and Zhao Zhiguo into two words "profit". Will Zhao Zhiguo still regard him as a brother in the future?

At the tavern in Jinyang City, Tao Xueyi introduced Zhao Zhiguo to them, and it seemed that a certain outcome was destined.

Zhao Zhiguo had no idea what was happening in Pingcheng!

Based on Zhao Zhiguo's judgment of the situation, they must capture Jinyang City before the Jiangcheng battle ends.

Otherwise, if the Battle of Jiangcheng ends, the Japanese army will have the opportunity to withdraw from the war in the south to deal with Zhao Zhiguo.

Once the Japanese army forms a joint command and tries to capture Jinyang City, the price they will pay will be even greater, and they may not even have the chance to attack Jinyang.

"Commander, don't worry. In the near future, I will send troops to conduct reconnaissance and attack on the Jinyang area. I will contain the Japanese army in Jinyang City from the north and disrupt the Japanese army's deployment against the Second Regiment." Zhao Ziming said.

Based on the intelligence sent back by Qin Dongsheng, he repeatedly guessed that the Japanese army had plans to target them.

If the third regiment also enters the Jinyang area to fight, the Japanese army is very likely to lose sight of one thing.

"Before the order to attack Jinyang is issued, all moving troops must advance slowly."
