Chapter 575: Li Hong's Bold Proposal (1)
Wei Boru didn't care about the gift, but he was very interested in a precise command knife on the table.
Wei Boru took out the devil's official knife, glanced at the font engraved on the knife, and suddenly laughed happily.
"Hahaha......"
"Li Hong, Li Hong, you kid is really good, you can even get the command knife of the devil lieutenant general."
Wei Boru couldn't put it down, he said with a smile: "Since the Anti-Japanese War, only a handful of Japanese generals have been killed, and there are very few captured Japanese generals' knives, and this Japanese lieutenant general with a knife in my hand is even more unique......"
Wei Boru values Li Hong very much, and he also likes Li Hong's subordinates who have the ability and know that Entu will be a sycophant.
Li Hong said humbly: "The cultivation of Chief Wei, the humble duty is kept in mind, and a Japanese lieutenant general with a knife is not enough to worry about!" As long as you open your mouth, Chief Wei, even the emperor's sword and humble position can be brought to you! ”
Although Wei Boru likes the general's knife in his hand, he knows that this command knife is not for nothing.
Li Hong is a person who never suffers, he takes the initiative to give gifts, Wei Boru doesn't have to guess to know that Li Hong must have something to do with him.
Wei Boru smiled secretly: "Li Hong, don't go around the bend with me, you can tell me anything directly!" ”
"Chief Wei, I want to borrow a brigade from you!" Li Hong said his request out loud.
"Drink, you kid is not small, you want to borrow a brigade? What do you want? ”
Wei Boru's expression sank, and he seemed to have guessed Li Hong's intentions.
Li Hong didn't make a detour, and said bluntly: "Report to Chief Wei, I want to fight Gucheng County and recapture the county seat!" ”
When Wei Boru heard Li Hong's astonishing words about wanting to fight Gucheng County, he was shocked, and his face changed greatly.
"Confused, arrogant, your security team has suffered a little loss, can't you bear it? A gentleman takes revenge, ten years is not too late! Wei Boru's voice was raised, and he reprimanded Li Hong in a slightly heavy tone.
Li Hong insisted: "Chief Wei, I am not a gentleman, I Li Hong will take revenge if I have revenge, and I must take back Gucheng County from the Japanese invaders!" ”
"Presumptuous, what a blind officer!"
Wei Boru drank Li Hong lightly, and immediately, he controlled his excited emotions, and his anger was a little less.
Wei Boru is a general who cherishes talents, otherwise, with Li Hong's presumptuous words just now, he can push Li Hong to the end.
"Now that the officers and soldiers of my 2nd Theater of Operations are in a state of standoff with the Japanese army, do you know what serious consequences will be if you attack Gucheng County?"
Wei Boru solemnly reminded Li Hong and continued: "Gucheng County is a strategic place for the Japanese army, and it is a nail embedded in our defense area, as long as you hit Gucheng County, the Japanese army is bound to reinforce at all costs, and eventually the whole of Shanxi may fight......"
What will be the consequences of hitting Gucheng County, Li Hong has long thought about it.
This battle is like a powder keg, which can be said to affect the whole body, saying that the small point is a battle of tens of thousands of people, and saying that the big point may be that hundreds of thousands of troops will be forced into battle.
In order to stabilize the Shanxi battlefield and occupy the Shanxi region for a long time, the Japanese army dispatched half a division of the 10th Division and the 6th Division of the Japanese Army.
The 10th and 6th Divisions of the Japanese Army, unlike the original Japanese occupation forces in Shanxi, came to Shanxi mainly to expand their aggression and intend to devour the entire Shanxi region.
Li Hong thought about it for a while, and said cautiously: "Commander Wei, it can be concluded that the Japanese army will not hold on to us for a long time, and the Japanese army urgently transferred the 10th and 6th divisions in order to capture and encroach on our defense area step by step, and eventually Shanxi will fall into the hands of little devils......"
"Since the Japanese invasion will not stop, why don't we concentrate our forces to organize a counterattack and completely pull out the nail of the Gucheng County occupation army, maybe the entire Shanxi battlefield will have a turning point......
"Li Hong, your proposal is very good, it's just ......"
Wei Boru was actually very helpless, although he was the principal's descendant, there were not many central army troops available to him.
The Japanese army guarding Gucheng County had more than 10,000 troops, as well as some traitors and puppet troops, and the total number of enemies added up to at least 15,000 people.
If you want to attack Gucheng County, you must organize at least two integrated armies, which does not include the troops that block the Japanese army from all sides.
The Central Army troops under Wei Boru had to defend some unoccupied counties and towns, and the elite troops were holding on to the Japanese army, and they simply could not spare enough troops to organize a counterattack.
The most important point is that this is Shanxi, and the local army commanders do not want to see the central army, and once the battle starts, it is difficult to say whether the local armies from all walks of life can cooperate and respond.
As a senior commander, Wei Boru was able to predict and analyze the immaturity of the counterattack campaign in advance, and the troops in Shanxi did not completely obey his command, so it was obvious that they would not fight a battle with a slim chance of victory.
"Chief Wei, I know your difficulties, but I will still attack Gucheng County with a group of forces......" Li Hong's attitude was very firm, and no one could stop his decision.
As soon as Li Hong said that he would borrow troops to fight Gucheng County, he knew that Wei Boru would not agree, but he wanted the other party to have some concessions, even if the soldiers could not be borrowed, he could be allowed to attack Gucheng County.
If Li Hong had said that he would have beaten the county seat from the beginning, then Wei Boru might not have made any concessions.
Wei Boru thought twice, made a slight concession, and finally agreed to Li Hong's attack on Gucheng County.
Although the soldiers were not borrowed, Li Hong's true purpose had been achieved, and he had already obtained Wei Boru's approval to attack Gucheng County.
"It's not so easy to hit the county seat, you have to think about it thoroughly, don't mess around, be careful to break the sky!" Wei Boru solemnly reminded Li Hong.
"Don't worry, Chief Wei, even if you break the sky, ......won't you and Chief Chen stand up to it?"
"You kid!"
Wei Boru angrily pulled out the command knife and wanted to chop Li Hong, but Li Hong had long since disappeared.
After Li Hong left, Wei Boru smiled helplessly.
Although Wei Boru allowed Li Hong to develop and expand the security regiment freely, he was very clear about the combat effectiveness and overall strength of the security regiment today.
The combat effectiveness of the security regiment is so strong that it can defeat an elite Japanese first-class division of the Japanese army, and besides, Li Hong is very good at pulling mountains to accumulate contacts.
If he really wants to fight Gucheng County, there will definitely be many army commanders to support him.
After leaving the camp, Li Hong immediately drove the car back to the base area of the security regiment.
On the way back, Li Hong took out a private radio station from the system warehouse and contacted the ace spy he had planted in the devil army.
Umegawa Yixiu was originally an ace spy of the Japanese army's special high class, but now he has already become a spy lurking in the Japanese army.
Li Hong thought about the difficulty of attacking Gucheng County, and the most difficult thing was that the Japanese army might threaten Chen Shujun.
Therefore, he wanted to learn the exact detention point of Chen Shujun from Meichuan Yixiu.
As long as the people are rescued, then Li Hong can attack Gucheng County without any scruples......
