Chapter 905 Boss Chen: Congratulations on getting rich!
"For such a big matter, how can I not contact Boss Chen?"
Li Yunlong said: "I had already contacted Boss Chen the night the battle ended."
The mission of Li Yunlong and the New Regiment is mainly to kill the Japanese.
As for the construction of base areas and rear areas, it is mainly done by the head of the headquarters.
Let professional people do professional things.
Zhao Gang couldn't wait to ask: "What did Boss Chen say?"
"When we contacted Boss Chen, the number of enemies we had killed hadn't been calculated yet, so Boss Chen wanted to come to Taiyuan for an interview."
Li Yunlong said: "Old Zhao, why are you more anxious than me? I, the emperor, am not in a hurry. Why are you so anxious?"
"Your boy is the eunuch."
Zhao Gang laughed and cursed:
"I'm not thinking that I can rest assured that the weapons, ammunition and military equipment are in the hands of our Eighth Route Army."
Zhao Gang was also a little worried that Boss Chen would run away with the bucket.
After all, this time, the Eighth Route Army annihilated more than 130,000 Japanese troops and killed as many as 16 Japanese generals.
According to the business unit price given by Boss Chen in advance, the various weapons and ammunition, military equipment, civilian factories and various combat materials that Boss Chen has to pay to the Eighth Route Army for this battle are an extremely huge number.
However, thinking of Boss Chen's wealth, Zhao Gang's worries quickly disappeared.
But then again, only when these things are actually in the hands of the Eighth Route Army can the stone in Zhao Gang's heart be considered settled.
Li Yunlong nodded: "Don't worry, Boss Chen has already said that he is already making arrangements, but the specific number needs to be verified by him personally."
"I can rest assured that."
Zhao Gang smiled slightly.
…
Peking.
Iron Lion Alley.
North China Front Army Headquarters.
Compared with the Taiyuan Eighth Route Army and the people celebrating the liberation of Taiyuan, the North China Front Army headquarters was in a state of mourning.
The Japanese North China Front was almost crushed to pieces by the Eighth Route Army in this battle.
"General."
"The strength of the 40th Division and the 56th Division that successfully broke through has been calculated."
In the operations hall, a combat staff officer reported to Neji Okamura.
At the moment, Sue Seizo is still under house arrest, and all matters in the entire headquarters are handled by Okamura Neiji alone.
"How many troops are left in the 40th Division and the 56th Division?"
Okamura Neji suddenly frowned and said.
The combat staff officer replied: "There are still about 4,000 troops in each division, and the division commanders of the two divisions are still alive."
When Okamura Neji heard this, his brows suddenly furrowed a little deeper.
Before the war, these two divisions were at full strength, with a total of more than 30,000 men. However, after such a battle, the losses exceeded two-thirds, and even two artillery regiments were lost.
Now, the combat effectiveness that these two divisions can unleash is only two infantry regiments at most.
But thinking that these two divisions were not completely wiped out, Okamura Neji felt a little better.
The combat staff continued: "Lieutenant General Seiichi Aoki, commander of the 40th Division, and Lieutenant General Masao Watanabe, commander of the 56th Division, requested to return to the country to rest and replenish troops."
"no!"
Okamura Neiji looked at the map and decisively rejected the requests of the two division commanders: "Let them station in Shimen City and stand by in place. I will apply to the base camp for soldiers to replenish the 40th Division and the 56th Division as soon as possible!
"
In this battle, the North China Front army was completely wiped out 7 divisions and 3 brigades, and the main force was almost wiped out.
If the 56th Division and the 40th Division leave, once the Eighth Route Army advances eastward, most of Hebei Province will have to be surrendered to the Eighth Route Army, which will then attack Pingjin.
This made the North China Front Army, which was already extremely short of troops, even worse in terms of military strength.
so.
No matter what, Okamura Neiji could not let these two divisions return to their homeland to rest.
"Hi."
The combat staff replied.
Okamura Neiji asked again: "Does the Eighth Route Army show any signs of attacking eastward?"
The operational staff officer replied: "There is currently no sign of the Eighth Route Army attacking eastward, but the Eighth Route Army in central Hebei has already captured Jingxing County and the Jingxing Coal Mine."
"No?"
Okamura Neji suddenly raised his eyebrows.
The Eighth Route Army did not continue the attack, which was somewhat beyond his expectation.
If he were the commander-in-chief of the Eighth Route Army, he would definitely take advantage of the situation to pursue him when the main force of the North China Front was wiped out and the Eighth Route Army suffered only moderate losses.
The total strength of the North China Front now consists of the 21st Division, the 27th Division, the 35th Division, the crippled 1st Division, the 26th Division, the severely damaged 40th Division, and the 35th Division.
The 56th Division, as well as some security forces, several mixed brigades, and some puppet troops, the total strength of the Japanese army is less than 100,000.
Unless the Kwantung Army goes south for reinforcements, the North China Front Army cannot be a match for the Eighth Route Army.
There must be a reason why the Eighth Route Army did not attack.
After the North China Front Army suffered such a huge defeat, Okamura Neiji did not think that the officers at the Eighth Route Army General Headquarters were a bunch of fools.
On the contrary, they are a group of opponents that are difficult to deal with and extremely cunning.
These opponents are much more difficult to deal with than the people in the Republic of China government.
"Hi."
The combat officer bowed his head.
Neji Okamura spoke solemnly: "Pay close attention to the movements of the Eighth Route Army. If you find any abnormality, report it to me immediately."
What makes Neji Okamura most uneasy is that the enemy has a big move in his hand and does not attack.
"Hi."
The combat staff officer just turned around and came back to his senses:
"By the way, General, Major General Kazuki Yamamoto, deputy chief of staff of the First Army, also broke through to Shimen City."
Shimen City in Hebei Province was renamed Shijiazhuang in 1947.
"Yamamoto Kazuki?" Neji Okamura's expression changed and he ordered in a serious tone, "Within half an hour, I want all of Yamamoto Kazuki's information."
The entire First Army was wiped out by the Eighth Route Army, except Kazuki Yamamoto who survived and even broke through to Shimen City.
There are only two possibilities.
Either Yamamoto Kazuki is very capable and can break through the Eighth Route Army's heavy encirclement and pursuit.
Either this Kazuki Yamamoto was a senior agent lurking in the First Army Headquarters and was deliberately released by the Eighth Route Army.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Hi."
The combat staff turned around and left.
Subsequently, Okamura ordered the communications staff officer to come to the office.
"General, are you looking for me?"
Soon Communications Staff Officer Haruo Kiya came in, bowed his head to Neji Okamura and asked.
"Kutani-kun, please send this report to Prime Minister Tojo at the headquarters."
Okamura Neiji handed a prepared telegram to Kitani Haruo.
In the telegram, Okamura Neiji reported the losses in this battle to Tojo Hideji, and took all the responsibility for the defeat on himself.
Okamura Neiji didn't have much worry about whether he would be dismissed from his post or ordered to have a caesarean section to apologize, or whether he would be recalled to the country to serve as a reserve force.
Regardless of the punishment, another general is needed to serve as the new commander of the North China Front.
And this involves a problem. There is a high probability that the Eighth Route Army will kill the new commander of the North China Front Army halfway.
No matter how big the battle was, his position as commander of the North China Front, Okamura Neiji, was secure.
"Hi."
Haruo Kitani took the telegram, paused, and turned to leave.
…
Two days later.
Taiyuan.
New regiment headquarters.
Chen Feng took Yan Shuangying on the New Regiment's jeep from northwestern Shanxi. Under the escort of the New Regiment's security forces, they came to Taiyuan to meet Li Yunlong to discuss business matters.
Originally, Li Yunlong was supposed to go to northwest Shanxi to meet Boss Chen.
However, because the army had just won a great victory, Li Yunlong was too busy to get away, so Chen Feng went down the mountain.
Chen Feng and the others were about to arrive in Taiyuan, and Li Yunlong sent a sharp sword squadron to meet them.
Boss Chen's safety is a top priority for Li Yunlong and the Eighth Route Army.
"Boss Li, Boss Zhao, congratulations on getting rich!"
In the living room, when Chen Feng saw Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang, he cupped their hands.
Chen Feng already knew from the system the number of enemies destroyed by the Eighth Route Army in this battle, which could be said to be beyond Chen Feng's expectations.
Chen Feng guessed that the Eighth Route Army would win this battle, but he did not expect that the Eighth Route Army would win so beautifully.
But now, it's time for Li Yunlong, Zhao Gang and even the entire Eighth Route Army to have a good harvest.
The victory and honor of this battle belong to the entire Eighth Route Army.
"No, no, I and you, Brother Zhao, only rely on our brothers for you to have food to drink."
Seeing Chen Feng, Li Yunlong's face was suddenly filled with a smile:
"Where did your brother get rich recently?"
"How can you make money in the wilderness?" Chen Feng laughed. The merit points earned from this battle were also beyond Chen Feng's expectations.
After earning enough merit points, I, Chen Feng, can control the system and become the real protagonist. I can give Li Yunlong whatever equipment I want, including missiles, mushroom eggs, aircraft carriers, etc.
Li Yunlong is just a Mai Ke who works for me, Chen Feng, a long-term employee.
You, Li Yunlong, may gain blood, but I, Chen Feng, will never lose.
"Brother Chen, please sit down."
Zhao Gang shook his hands, and then said to the guard beside him:
"Xiao Li, show me the tea to Boss Chen. You must use the best tea leaves."
"yes."
Xiao Li turned around and left, leaving only Li Yunlong, Chen Feng and Zhao Gang in the living room.
Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang also sat down. Li Yunlong laughed in his unique voice and took out a list from his pocket:
"Brother Chen, this is the number of Japanese soldiers killed by the Eighth Route Army under my command in this battle and the list of Japanese generals killed. Please take a look."
Boss Chen is coming to discuss business, so Li Yunlong naturally has to prepare a list.
Li Yunlong also ordered repeated statistics and verification of the numbers on the list. Due to the large number of enemies annihilated, the large number of enemy weapons and ammunition destroyed, and the large amount of materials seized, there must be some discrepancies with the actual situation, but the error will never be large.
Although Li Yunlong wants to earn more weapons and ammunition, he will never falsify the data.
This is a matter of integrity. The most important thing for a businessman is to be honest.
At this point, Captain Li Da can be regarded as a qualified businessman.
Li Yunlong was the nominal commander-in-chief of the front line, and this was approved by Chen Feng.
Although Li Yunlong was in name only, and the head of the headquarters was in charge of the overall situation at the headquarters in Liao County, southeastern Shanxi Province, the battles on the front lines were basically directed by Li Yunlong. For some general issues, Li Yunlong could not make decisions before asking the head of the headquarters to make decisions.
Chen Feng nodded, took the list from Li Yunlong's hand and read it.
