On the way back to Baocheng from Guisui, Mu Han's excitement had not yet passed. I was still secretly happy in my heart: I didn't expect that the famous anti-Japanese generals in later generations would worship him, and he also received his full support, which provided a great boost to his future layout and development.

"Commander-in-chief, we gave so many weapons and 200,000 oceans to General Zhao, and we didn't get anything, so we recognized you as a junior brother with him, which is too cost-effective!" Zhou Shun muttered all the way.

"Hehe, Zhou Shun! Being able to get General Zhao's promise is better than anything else! Besides, those tattered weapons, in our place, are also thrown in the storeroom. Give it to my eldest brother when he fights the little devils in the future, and our strength will also be enhanced! And after this war of annihilation of Mongolian bandits, with General Zhao here, we can also save a lot of trouble. Take a long-term view! ”

As soon as they left, Wang Binghui, the head of the Central Committee of the Kuomintang Suiyuan Provincial Department, came to Zhao Dengyu's office and conveyed the Nanjing government's order to closely monitor the Huaishuo Security Corps and strictly investigate its political tendencies. However, Zhao Dengyu blocked it back on the grounds that the Huaishuo Security Regiment belonged to the Suiyuan local armed forces and was under his direct command.

Qiao Shan, who was far away in Kulun, Mongolia, was dumbfounded when he learned that 10,000 Mongolian troops and 3,000 Soviet Russian Red Army were almost wiped out, and less than 1,000 survived and were captured. When the Soviet and Russian sides first received the news, the bearded man was extremely angry and surprised, and when he wanted to send troops to retaliate, the US ambassador sent a protest from the US government that the Russians were secretly sabotaging the interests of American merchants in Suiyuan. The bearded man hesitated, and it turned out that Baocheng in Suiyuan had become the sphere of influence of the Americans, which made him have to start calculating the situation in the Far East again! Qiao Shan saw that the Russians didn't say anything, so he had no choice but to stop and eat the bitter fruit.

Mu Han, who returned to Huaishuo, immediately convened a plenary meeting of the Fifth Dragon Division and began to study the new deployment of Suiyuan.

After making a decision, Mu Han drove the 51st Regiment of the 5th Long Division directly to the Mongolian border and stationed there, the 52nd Regiment continued to expand westward, striving to bring the surrounding areas of Ningxia and Gansu into its sphere of influence, the 53rd Regiment was stationed south to the border with Shanxi and Shanxi, and the regiment directly under the division, the armored regiment, and the flying brigade were stationed in Baotou on the spot.

What everyone admires now for Mu Han is that he threw himself to the ground, but he was young but talked and laughed, destroyed more than 10,000 enemies, and dealt with the post-war affairs without revealing anything.

At this time, Zhou Da stood up and said sincerely: "Commander-in-chief, I want to resign, through this battle, I understand better that I am really not the material to lead the troops to fight, and if I occupy this position again, sooner or later I will miss a big thing!" ”

Everyone was speechless when they heard it, and their eyes were silently watching Mu Han.

Mu Han thought about it for a while, and then said slowly: "Uncle Zhou, I can understand your feelings, but now I can't find a suitable candidate for a while, so let's do it!" You will act as the commander of the Fifth Division of the First Dragon, and militarily you will discuss more with the regimental commanders, or you will give them power, and if you encounter a matter of disagreement, you will call me immediately. You just need to take care of the logistics, and at the same time you can worry more about the economy and government. ”

Zhou Da nodded, sat down and stopped talking.

"Commander-in-chief, my 51st regiment, go directly to the Mongolian border, those Mongolian bandits must be frightened now, there will be no overreaction, but will it attract protests from the Russians?" At this time, Pang Hu, the commander of the 51st regiment, got up, saluted respectfully and spoke.

Mu Han nodded, "I'm very satisfied that Commander Pang can take this into account, but everyone still has to be prepared, because Mongolia is the main direction of my Dragon Guard's future operations." ”

Mu Han paused, glanced at everyone, and then said: "Everyone is afraid of the big country of Soviet Russia, I can understand it, to be honest, with our current strength, we really can't fight hard with the Russians." However, I have already greeted the American ambassador, and it has worked, and now it is not easy for Soviet Russia to do it directly. Because in October 1928, Soviet Russia began to implement the first five-year plan and the agricultural collectivization movement. It now needs a stable domestic and international political environment and thus tries to avoid disputes with the outside world. At the same time, after the October Revolution, the capitalist countries of the West were in a state of hostility with Soviet power for a long time. Soviet Russia was busy fighting back against the offensive of Western imperialism while at the same time setting about improving relations with its neighbors. Moreover, Soviet Russia did not yet have enough strength in the Far East. Although Soviet Russia began to carry out the "First Five-Year Plan" construction in 1928, and the overall strength of the country has increased greatly, due to the weak industrial base of the original state, it is impossible to develop quickly. The Far East, on the other hand, is developing even more slowly. At present, the transportation capacity of the Soviet-Russian Trans-Siberian Railway was not enough to meet the needs of the war in the Far East. Coupled with the various provocations and economic blockades of Western imperialism, various contradictions were exposed in domestic construction, especially the tension in rural relations caused by the collective agricultural movement. In fact, the machinery and equipment we shipped back to Baotou from the United States were originally snapped up by the Russians, but now they are in our hands, so the pace of development of Soviet Russia has slowed down.

In addition, the political and economic center of Soviet Russia was mainly concentrated in the west, and it also kept the focus of defense on the western front. As long as we do not take the initiative to attack, Soviet Russia will not start a war lightly because of a subsidiary force. But we don't have much time left, so you need to work hard! When we have enough strength, we will definitely drive a long car to break through the Helan Mountains and recover the old mountains and rivers! ”

"The ministry must train hard and recover the land as soon as possible!" All the officers of the Fifth Dragon Division stood up in unison and shouted in unison.

At this time, Duan Zhengfeng, Liu Zhixian, and Han Xing were also in a meeting.

"Guys, what do you think of the news from the international representatives of Soviet Russia asking us to rescue the Soviet prisoners in Baotou, Suiyuan?" Duan Zhengfeng asked.

"Secretary Duan, I think we'd better forget it!" Han Xing shook his head.

"Why!" Almost everyone looked at Han Xing in disbelief, waiting for his answer.

"We don't have that ability!" Han Xing couldn't say anything on his face.

"It's just a local militia group, what's so powerful, it's just a fluke to be able to defeat the Mongols and Soviet Russians this time!" There was a whisper in the room.

Han Xing sneered when he heard this.

Duan Zhengfeng and Liu Zhi first looked at each other, and then looked straight at Han Xing, "Could it be that Zhou Da of Suiyuan Huaishuo is also a ...... of Wolong Mountain?"

"Not bad!" Han Xing nodded.

"Ahh Duan Zhengfeng and Liu Zhixian sat down at once.

"What's wrong, what's wrong with Wolong Mountain?" The others, who didn't know why, asked.

"What do you think of my skills?" Han Xing asked suddenly.

"Deputy Battalion Commander Han's military literacy and martial arts skills are also superb-class in our army!"

"Huh!" Han Xing smiled bitterly, "I'm from Wolong Mountain!" ”

"Ahh

"Zhou Da of Suiyuan is also one of my uncles and masters."

"What!" All of them, including Duan Zhengfeng and Liu Zhixian, were dumbfounded.

Quiet, the silence in the field is terrible!

"Rehe Chengde, Chahar Duolun, Suiyuan Baocheng!" Duan Zhengfeng suddenly said to himself, "It's terrible! It's horrible! ”

"Adjournment! Regarding the rescue of the Soviet Russian Red Army, I will ask the Central Committee again! The others returned to their place and stood by, and Han Xing stayed! ”

At this time, only Duan Zhengfeng, Liu Zhixian, and Han Xing were left in the field.

After a long while, Duan Zhengfeng straightened out his thoughts and said, "Comrade Han Xing, how many secret territories are there in Wolong Mountain, and how many people are there!" Now you must make it clear that this has a bearing on the direction of the development of our party and our army! Please be sure to answer truthfully! ”

Han Xing was silent for a long time, and said slowly: "Secretary Duan, since you say so, I can only tell you that I don't fully understand the situation in Wolong Mountain, especially after I officially joined the revolution, I don't know at all!" Even in the past, I only know part of it. ”

"Oh! Isn't your father the second head of Wolong Mountain? Liu Zhixian asked with some suspicion.

"Yes, but all the layout plans in Wolong Mountain are operated by Mu Han and Chen Qi, and the others are just carrying out orders. Therefore, how great the power of Wolong Mountain is, except for Mu Han and Chen Qi, no one is completely clear! Especially after Mu Han returned to China, in addition to Wolong Mountain, what forces he developed, I think it is my Uncle Chen Qi, and I don't necessarily know it completely. ”

"Judging from the intelligence analysis we have obtained so far, Chahar Duolun has Qiao Fei's team of at least 5,000 people; And in this Suiyuan War, the strength shown by Zhou Da's department is at least tens of thousands, these are what we know, and Rehe Wolong Mountain as the headquarters, there should be more people, and there are at least more than 30,000 people in these three places alone! It has already surpassed the men and horses of our two regiments, and it is very well armed. It's incredible! Duan Zhengfeng muttered.

"Secretary Duan, I'm not afraid of my father's implementation of family law now, let me be honest with you, before I left home to participate in the revolution, Wolong Mountain had at least 50,000 horses! There are no less than 1,000 people with the same skills and qualities as me, and I really don't know how far they have developed now. But I think with my Brother Mu Han's Wen Taowu strategy, I have to at least double it! ”

"What! 100,000 horses! Duan Zhengfeng and Liu Zhixian suddenly felt that Mount Tai was overwhelming.

"What does Mu Han want to do?"

Han Xing said with a look of admiration: "My Brother Mu Han, I have been preparing since 6 years ago, studying abroad for more than four years, returning to China for development in the past two years, plus the full cooperation of my father and others. The strength is unpredictable! However, I heard him say that he would not turn his guns on the country unless he had to, and that he had formed an armed force to resist foreign enemies! ”

"Ahh I have to report this to the Central Committee immediately! Duan Zheng was in a hurry and was about to get up.
