Chapter 227: Forming an Expeditionary Force Task Force Special Operations Squad
Late at night, in a big house in Yingtan, Xiao Yifei and Boss Dai jointly presided over a military meeting.
Present at the meeting were the commander of the National Army and three division commanders, Division Commander Wang, Commander Li Xianghe, Chen Yugeng, and Zhao Zihao.
Boss Dai first read out the telegrams sent by Chongqing, the Third and Ninth Theaters, and the Headquarters of the New Fourth Army.
Then Xiao Yifei spoke.
Xiao Yifei first expressed his condolences to Commander Wang's division for suffering heavy losses from the Japanese army, and expressed his gratitude and congratulations to the heroes of all teams for killing the enemy.
Then Xiao Yifei deployed the next work, and the whole army of the Nationalist Army pressed towards Yiyang, forcing the Japanese army to retreat. Master Wang immediately replenished and stationed in Jinxian. Commander Li's team and Chen Yugeng's team rested in the Dongxiang area. Zhao Zihao returned to Huizhou with the guerrillas to make rockets. Xiao Yifei and Die'er, Xue Shiyu, Li Shanshan, and Dong Ying temporarily stayed in Yingtan and Boss Dai to observe the changes in the situation, and if necessary, the team will be assembled.
In the end, Xiao Yifei said: "This time our joint operation to destroy an entire brigade and regiment of the Japanese army will greatly boost the confidence of the Third Theater in the War of Resistance, the Japanese offensive will inevitably be frustrated, and the Japanese army in the Third Theater will soon be in a state of contraction." The next battle depends on how the commander Gu commands. ”
After the meeting, everyone rested.
On the wide bed, Die'er snuggled in Xiao Yifei's arms, the two were talking, and neither of them could sleep due to excitement.
Die'er asked, "Brother, what are we going to do next?" You're not going to be the commander of the national army, are you? ”
Xiao Yifei shook his head and said, "How can I be the commander of the national army? I'm the guerrilla leader of the New Fourth Army! The fighting on this side has stopped, and my command can be handed over. ”
Die'er pouted and said, "Then what can we get by fighting to the death?" ”
Xiao Yifei scratched Butterfly's nose and said with a smile: "What do you want?" ”
Die'er sighed and said, "I only want you, and the others really don't know what they want." ”
Xiao Yifei smiled and said: "You also have to learn to rest and learn to play, we can't fight all the time, and you can't be a war madman." ”
Die'er smiled and said: "Since I was sensible, I have been fighting with you, and I really won't rest or play." ”
Xiao Yifei nodded and said, "I won't play either." We've been fighting since we joined the Tall Tree guerrillas. Looking back, what a wreck that battle was! Now it's okay, we can wipe out a brigade of the Japanese army. ”
Die'er whispered, "How long are you going to stay in Yingtan?" ”
Xiao Yifei said: "Observe the changes in the situation. Either way, we can't just leave after the fight, in which case people will talk about us. If something happens to me in the third war zone, I won't be able to find it after I leave. You can't let the people from the Third War Zone rush to Huizhou to find me, right? In the past few days, you can play cards with Xue Shiyu, Dong Ying, and Li Shanshan, go shopping, sing and dance, and do whatever you want. I need to think, and I need to discuss work with Boss Dai and others. ”
Butterfly nodded and said, "Okay." ”
The next morning, Gu Zhutong and the eldest prince came to Yingtan Xiao Yifei's station.
Xiao Yifei hurriedly invited them to sit down in the reception room, and Die'er and Xue Shiyu made tea for them.
Xiao Yifei asked Die'er and Xue Shiyu to leave.
The eldest prince held Xiao Yifei's hand, smiled and said, "You have achieved a great victory, and the whole of China is celebrating because of your victory." Congratulatory telegrams were sent from the United States, Great Britain and the Soviet Union, and my father made a public speech to the media, ceremoniously promoting you to the world. Brother, I also want to congratulate you, this victory is so much needed for China. Once the Zhejiang-Jiangxi line is opened by the Japanese army, the whole of South China will fall, and the third and ninth theaters, and even the fifth and sixth theaters will be finished. Brother, I'm so happy, I don't say words of thanks, because we are all Chinese, I only congratulate you. ”
Xiao Yifei said with a smile: "This victory is not the victory of me Xiao Yifei alone, but the victory of all departments, including the common people, in the joint war of resistance." As long as the forces of all sides of China are united, we will definitely be able to defeat the Japanese invaders, and if the war in Zhejiang is fought everywhere like ours, the Japanese army will soon be destroyed. ”
The eldest prince nodded and said, "Well said!" The Zhejiang-Jiangxi line was saved, and the father's hanging heart could be put into his stomach. Brother, my father wants to invite you to Chongqing, and he will personally award you the Order of the Blue Sky and the White Sun. ”
Xiao Yifei waved his hand and said, "Where is the time to go to Chongqing?" I can't leave! If I had left Takeda and learned the news, I would have come back to present the awards, we didn't fight for honor, to be honest, it would be useless for me to give me a bunch of medals. My ammunition has run out, I have sent the team back to Huizhou to manufacture, you can provide full support to me in making ammunition, just do it. ”
The eldest prince nodded and said, "I know that you are not fighting for honor, nor for money, you are for the country and the nation. No problem, I will go to Huizhou in the next two days, and I will personally care about this matter. ”
Gu Zhutong looked at Xiao Yifei's eyes and smiled and said, "I'm sorry, I forcibly threw the mess to you, I can guess that you must have scolded your mother in your heart at that time." ”
Xiao Yifei smiled bitterly and said: "If you want to be in front of me at that time, it is possible for me to fight with you." The Japanese army attacked on three fronts, what team did you leave behind? The Takeda Division is a Class A Division! Aren't you worried that this line will be completely destroyed by the Japanese army? ”
Gu Zhutong sighed and said, "There are really no soldiers!" I can only bet on you! I'm gambling with my life, too! ”
Xiao Yifei said: "Don't say anything now, I will give you back this national army and national army division." ”
Gu Zhutong shook his head and said, "Please help me again, and if you sit in charge for a while, you must prevent Takeda from killing me." If Takeda kills him, only you can deal with it, and I know that the 74th Army is not capable of dealing with it. ”
Xiao Yifei nodded and said, "If I don't leave now, I will live in Yingtan." ”
Gu Zhutong nodded and said: "Great, if you live in Yingtan, the Japanese army will not dare to dream of attacking Yingtan again." ”
Xiao Yifei said: "The war is so tense, I thank Chief Gu for coming to visit. ”
Gu Zhutong smiled and said: "I really can't stay for a long time, I won't accompany you for lunch, you and the eldest prince have a good chat, I will leave first." ”
After Xiao Yifei sent Gu Zhutong away, he returned to the reception room and continued to drink tea with the eldest son.
The eldest prince said: "When the Japanese army hit Yingtan, I was so worried that our company would be destroyed by the Japanese army. ”
Xiao Yifei said with a smile: "If it can't be destroyed, the Japanese army will immediately retreat on the whole front, according to my inference, the Japanese army will retreat to the Quzhou area, on the west side of Quzhou, only a small number of troops will be left, and it will not have too much impact on southern Anhui." ”
The eldest prince said: "Our company is one of the money bags for the country to buy weapons, and the country is too poor, and there is really no money!" With so many troops to support, the war has been fought, the life of the common people is hard, and the lives of the soldiers are also hard. The company's products are to be shipped to the allies, but Southeast Asia has been occupied by the Japanese army, and most of the coastal outlets in China are also controlled by the Japanese army. It's hard for everyone! ”
Xiao Yifei's brain suddenly flashed with inspiration, since the eldest prince mentioned Southeast Asia, and Die'er and the others are bent on going abroad to fight, can they let them go abroad in the name of protecting the eldest prince's company's seaports in Southeast Asia? The biggest advantage of cooperating with the eldest prince is that there is no problem with money, and you can secretly build a team. If they can stand up, Xiao Yifei's later team will have a stronghold in the past, and if they can't stand up, they can return by boat. The stakes are high because there is no one to help them. However, the four of them have grown up, and the staff command level of Xue Shiyu is already very high, and they can completely stand alone.
Xiao Yifei looked at the eyes of the eldest prince and whispered: "Listening to you, I suddenly had an idea, I thought, can we discuss it and see if this works." ”
The eldest prince asked curiously: "Brother, say it quickly, we can say anything directly between us." ”
Xiao Yifei said: "I know that the first batch of expeditionary forces in my country were defeated by the Japanese army, and there were countless casualties. The Yunnan-Burma Highway is a lifeline for our country to receive supplies from the allies, and one of the main purposes of our expedition to Burma is to defend this lifeline. ”
The eldest prince asked in a low voice, "Do you want to join the expeditionary force?" ”
Xiao Yifei said with a smile: "Your company's ports in Southeast Asia need to be protected. ”
The eldest prince asked curiously: "Yes!" What do you want to say? ”
Xiao Yifei said: "Your father is the commander-in-chief of the Far Eastern Allied War of Resistance. ”
The eldest prince nodded.
Xiao Yifei said: "What I want to say is, can I let my people lead a small team to enter Southeast Asia in the name of the expeditionary force task force to explore the way first. If they can stand still, I'll go over. This team is not directly subordinate to other teams, but is only under the leadership of Chongqing and you. The purpose is to go to Southeast Asia to fight guerrillas, destroy the strategic objectives of the Japanese army, and defend the important objectives of our army, including keeping your company's ports in Southeast Asia. ”
The eldest prince's eyes lit up, and he laughed and said, "Really? You must know that going abroad to fight a war is 10,000 times more difficult than at home, and you only have a small team, so there is a lot of pressure to survive! Now my father is preparing to build a second expeditionary force, and he is eager to find talent! If you can go, your father will be very happy. If you go, you will definitely be able to make great achievements, and our country's expedition to Burma will definitely be victorious. ”
Xiao Yifei said: "If I don't go now, there will be a war in China!" I want my junior sister Die'er to go first. The number of troops who passed first did not have to be large, as long as there was only about one battalion. In the past, the way was not to take the land route, but to go directly to the shore by boat. ”
The eldest prince was shocked and said, "You actually let the junior sisters go first?" Can they? ”
Xiao Yifei smiled and said, "Their first mission is to explore the way for me." Why don't I call them out and we'll talk about it together? ”
The eldest prince nodded and said, "Okay!" You let them go first, you have your own reasons, and I trust you unconditionally. ”
Die'er Xue Shiyu Dong Ying and Li Shanshan stood together, looking at the eldest prince with a smile.
The eldest prince asked Die'er: "Just the four of you to take the task force to Southeast Asia, do you dare?" Can? Are you afraid? ”
Die'er stood up and said loudly: "For the sake of the country, for the sake of the nation, as long as the country and the nation need it, where there are devils, we will fight wherever there are." ”
The eldest prince nodded again and again and said, "I know that you have been fighting with your brother and fought here from Maoshan. I believe in your ability to lead troops. It's just that after you go to Southeast Asia, you don't have logistics, you have to rely on yourself. The people are not familiar, the roads are not familiar, the climate is not familiar, and everything is different from the country. ”
Die'er said loudly: "We are not afraid of difficulties, for the sake of the country and the nation, we are willing to take this risk, and we are willing to go abroad to make a try." ”
The eldest prince nodded and said, "Well said!" Attaboy! You make me admire it so much. ”
Butterfly waited for her to leave.
The eldest prince shook hands with Xiao Yifei and asked, "Do you want to think about it again?" ”
Xiao Yifei smiled and said, "Didn't my junior sister say it? For the sake of the country and the nation, where there are devils, we will fight them. ”
The eldest prince nodded and said, "Okay!" I immediately reported your idea to my father, and in the name of the Chinese Expeditionary Force Task Force, a special operations team was set up, led by your junior sister Die'er first. The specific personnel position arrangement is up to you. ”
Xiao Yifei said: "Die'er is the captain of the task force, Xue Shiyu is the chief of staff, and Dong Ying and Li Shanshan are the deputy captains. The number of people does not have to be large, it is just a matter of refinement, and a few people who understand foreign languages can follow them, so that it is easy to communicate with the locals and foreign troops. ”
The eldest prince nodded and said, "No problem!" I am so touched that you and your people are so righteous, and that you are willing to take such a big risk for the sake of the country and the nation. After the end of this war, the Chinese battlefield will inevitably enter a stage of stalemate, and the Japanese army will no longer be able to set off a major war. Just say what you need me to do, and I'll do it all. ”
Xiao Yifei said: "Please ask your father to coordinate with my New Fourth Army Headquarters, after all, I am a guerrilla of the New Fourth Army, and I must also obtain authorization from the headquarters to arrange people to go abroad to fight." ”
The eldest prince nodded and said, "Okay!" Let's go the official route, and I'll take care of that.
