As he spoke, the chairman unconsciously glanced at Admiral Li, and his expression of reproach was overflowing.

Admiral Li rolled his eyes, and said in a non-yin and non-yang manner: "Commission, we are a combat unit, these intelligence work should not have much to do with us, if there is no Military Command Bureau, then we should deserve this responsibility, besides, from Wuyang to Pingdingshan to the edge of the Yellow River, such a large area, these professional agents of the Military Command Bureau have not noticed any clues, where do we start?" ”

"You 616161616161" The chairman of the committee immediately became angry, of course, the responsibility of the Military Command Bureau cannot be shirked, but the local troops are not without responsibility at all, if they are surrounded by enemies, they don't know how the Fifth War Zone died, but General Li's words made the chairman unable to refute it, after all, tens of thousands of agents of the Military Command Bureau really shouldn't be idle to eat.

Seeing that the atmosphere was a little wrong, Xue Yue hurriedly came out to play a round: "Hehe, commission, the terrain in that area is complicated, and the cunning of Tuba Road is not easy to deal with, it is inevitable to miss a moment, 80,000 is 80,000, this is nothing remarkable, the Japanese army is determined not to reinforce Xinyang and Zhumadian, there will definitely be strong reinforcements on the periphery, Tuba Road is on the first line of defense, if there are no 80,000 troops, we are still worried that they will not be able to hold Zhumadian, now it has given us a reassurance, as for Lu'an, you can rest assured, As long as Degong's troops take Xinyang as scheduled and advance quickly to the east, they will not be able to catch up with the horses on the Tuba Road, and Liu'an will be ours. ”

Xue Yue's words made the chairman's face look much better, and he didn't continue the topic just now, and asked unintentionally: "Boling, can the troops of your Ninth War Zone be in place on time?" ”

Xue Yue said: "Don't worry, the vanguard of the 19th Army and the 27th Army has all arrived at the front, and the follow-up troops will all arrive before tonight, and will not delay tomorrow's general attack, the 30th Group Army and the 15th Army can all arrive in Changsha tomorrow, and after a short rest, I will order them to go to the front line, and will not delay the offensive task of the second echelon." ”

In the evening, Nanchang, the headquarters of the 40th Group Army.

Chief of Staff Liu He walked in with a telegram with a happy face, and said excitedly: "General seat, good news, the Eighth Route Army has entered the stage of street fighting, and it is estimated that Zhumadian will be fully occupied tomorrow." ”

"Oh, so fast?" Jiang Haoran seemed to be a little incredulous, copied the telegram in Liu He's hand, hurriedly browsed it, slapped the table, and said happily: "Okay!" This Lin Zong is really unusual, in the early stage, he sent a number of small forces to infiltrate the city, as soon as the battle started, the inside and the outside should be combined, and the north gate of the Japanese army was opened in one go, not only broke the city, but also took the Japanese arsenal intact, this battle was too beautiful! ”

"And this, 20,000 people took less than a day to defeat the heavily guarded Zhumadian of the Japanese army?" Zhang Dabiao on the side said suspiciously, and picked up the telegram that Jiang Haoran slapped on the table, but before he could look at it, a tenor voice sounded at the door: "It's not strange at all, Tubalu's troops in Zhumadian are not 20,000 at all, but more than 80,000!" ”

Following the prestige, I saw Wang Shihe striding in, with his identity and Jiang Haoran's relationship, he naturally didn't need to go through the guard's report to enter the headquarters directly.

"Brother Shihe, why are you here, notify me of something, I just need to go to where you are." Jiang Haoran said politely.

"Hehe, Deputy Commander-in-Chief Jiang, you are the supreme commander here, I am your subordinate, don't be so polite to me, or your subordinates should be eye-catching to me." Wang Shihe's eyes swept over Liu He and Zhang Dabiao's faces, and said deliberately.

Liu He hurriedly answered: "Oh, Brother Shihe, look at what you said, you are the eldest brother of our general seat, and you take care of our general seat so much, no matter what, we can't be so ignorant, right?" Right, Lao Zhang? ”

Zhang Dabiao also hurriedly seconded: "Yes, Chief Wang is not only the eldest brother of our headquarters, but also the nobleman of our 40th Group Army, we can't respect it, where do we dare to drum up any eyeballs?" ”

"Giggles!" Leng Rushuang smiled and said unceremoniously: "You guys, all of you have been tricked by Brother Shihe, I can't see that he is joking with you, what kind of loyalty do you still have, do you need it?" ”

Liu He and Zhang Dabiao suddenly laughed awkwardly, Wang Shihe pointed at Leng Rushuang and smiled: "Brother and sister, you are always so sharp-toothed, so that I can't get off the stage, see if I don't tear your little mouth when I'm in a hurry?" ”

"Hahaha!"

Laughter filled the room, and the atmosphere was peaceful.

After laughing, Jiang Haoran said: "Brother Shihe, didn't you come here to talk about this, right?" ”

"Oh, of course not." Wang Shihe Zhengse said: "Two things, the first is what you just said, the strength of the Eighth Route Army is not 20,000 but more than 80,000, the committee is a little worried, let me ask you if you need to take any remedial measures?" Second, tomorrow, the party-state's air force, the 14th Air Force, and your 40th Group Army Air Force will all be uniformly deployed by Air Force Commander Zhou Zhirou. You get the idea, right? ”

Jiang Haoran pondered for a few seconds, nodded and said: "I understand, you reply to the commission, I will carry out the order, as for the matter of the Eighth Route Army, I don't think there is any fuss, as long as Xinyang is defeated, the troops of the First War Zone can arrive in Xinyang on time, and the Gui Army will be freed up to advance to Lu'an, and the Eighth Route Army should have no chance of winning." ”

"Okay, then I know, I'll go and reply to the commission, are you busy?" Wang Shihe said and waved his hand and walked out of the gate of the headquarters.

Listening to the footsteps outside disappearing into the aisle, Liu He hurriedly said: "What is the matter, if we don't transfer the air force, how can we fight the war?" ”

Jiang Haoran smiled bitterly and said, "What's the matter?" At the big level, it is said that it takes care of the overall situation, and at the small level, it is said that it is to take care of the face of the chairman of the committee, for the sake of balance and to block the mouths of others. As for us? Don't be afraid, if you should call the Air Force, you can call the Air Force, but you don't have such freedom, and you can fight the war as you want. ”

As he spoke, a military staff officer held two telegrams in his hand and shouted a report at the door.

Leng Rushuang stepped forward quickly, took the telegram from the staff officer, glanced at it hurriedly, and said with a smile: "It was sent by Yang Sen, commander of the 27th Group Army, and Yu Jishi, commander of the 19th Group Army. Yu Jishi asked if you need help, he is now strong and strong, and repairing water and connecting the city is not enough for him to see, so if you need it, just ask. ”
