The officers of the Ministry of Military Affairs must have said bad things about Zhao Zhi when they went back, and the Ludong Theater, which was supposed to cooperate with Zhao Zhi to fight, did not move for a long time, but at this time, Zhao Zhi had already shifted his attention to the Jiaodong Peninsula, and it was already dispensable whether to take Jinan. "Order, the First Army of the Burmese Mercenaries besieging Binzhou will march east to Weifang from the same day, the Binzhou offensive will be taken over by the Burmese Second Army, the Jewish Airborne troops in Linyi will immediately move to Weifang, and the Second Panzer Division can advance eastward to support the Airborne Forces."

Zhao Zhi's series of orders confused his officers, and when the battle plan was revised, Zhao Zhi's operational staff officers had a heated debate with Zhao Zhi, but under Zhao Zhi's high pressure, the staff officers were finally defeated, but the officers who commanded the troops on the front line did not know this. As soon as Zhao Zhi said this, a new round of busyness began in the telecommunications room, and all the front-line commanders were asking Zhao Zhi about the intention of suddenly revising the battle plan.

"Don't explain" This is the answer given by Zhao Zhi, looking at the telegram with only three words, the front-line commanders were confused, and even Yan Wudao, who was ordered to sneak into Weifang, did not understand what his husband was trying to do. Zhao Zhi took away most of the troops that should have stirred up trouble around Dezhou and Jinan, but the offensive against Dezhou and Jinan did not stop, because Zhao Zhi still had a strange army available, that is, Yao Laoyu's Green Forest Guerrilla Army of the Four Provinces.

Now Yao Laoyu is no longer the green forest bandit entrenched in the mountains at the beginning, following Zhao Zhi's advice, Yao Laoyu relied on a batch of munitions provided by Zhao Zhi and the help of more than a dozen mercenary tactical instructors, changed the behavior of hiding around the mountains and the Japanese puppet army, and in just half a year, he successively captured more than a dozen strongholds of the Japanese puppet army, gathered bandits and bandits from the four provinces of Lu, Jin, Hebei and Henan to establish the four provinces of the green forest guerrilla army appointed by the government. With his own prestige and means, as well as a lot of money, weapons and ammunition, Yao Laoyu's guerrilla army began to swell like balloons, and now Yao Laoyu has more than 12,000 guerrilla soldiers, which is already the same size as the B division in the national army.

In 42 years, the drought in Henan, the victims were everywhere, Yao Laoyu recruited the victims to go south to Myanmar for the thunder, and specially arranged for his troops to escort these victims south along the way, and obtained more Japanese-style weapons and equipment from the hands of the thunder.

Yao Laoyu's six relatives did not recognize black and white, but there were two people he was most convinced of, one was Chiang Kai-shek, who gave him the title of commander of the guerrilla army, so that he could glorify his ancestors, and the other was Zhao Zhi, who pointed him to this golden strip and provided help. "I, Yao Laoyu, am a bandit, but Lao Tzu is not born a bandit, if he is not forced to have no way to live, he will become a bandit. Mr. Zhao can afford to look up to me Yao Laoyu, and pointed out to us a way to glorify our ancestors, you all follow Lao Tzu to fight the little devils well, and when Lao Tzu is developed, take you home to give your parents a long face. These are the original words that Yao Lao Yu often recited to his subordinates after he was drunk.

Yao Laoyu is convinced of Zhao Zhi, especially Zhao Zhi's ability to fight little devils, Yao Laoyu often says that 100 of them tied together are not Zhao Zhi's opponents, so after receiving Zhao Zhi's summoning order, Yao Laoyu, who was busy cleaning the battlefield, didn't care about the materials that had not been loaded into the car, and gathered the troops as if he was burning his butt and went straight to the Shang River. Zhao Zhi was in Shanghe County, 80 kilometers southeast of Dezhou, at this time, and the eastward expansion plan had been launched and begun to be implemented under Zhao Zhi's strong orders, and a part of the Burmese mercenaries were set aside to continue to besiege Dezhou to create a false impression for the Japanese army, and the rest of the troops were strictly ordered by Zhao Zhi to march to the front line of HD and Boxing on the periphery of Binzhou.

Binzhou is in the midst of a large-scale siege by Burmese mercenaries, so it is not uncommon for the eastward troops mobilized by Zhao Zhi to appear on the front line of HD and Boxing, and when Dezhou and Jinan continue to be besieged, the Japanese army will think that these troops appearing on the front line of HD and Boxing are used to besiege Binzhou, but they can't imagine that these troops are used by Zhao Zhi to deal with Weifang. Weifang is the key to Zhao Zhi's plot to seize the Jiaodong Peninsula, as long as Weifang is taken, Zhao Zhi's troops scattered throughout Shandong can be withdrawn or dispersed into the underground at any time, and when the Kwantung Army reaches Shandong in the south, I am afraid they will not even be able to find a single foot hair.

"Mr. Zhao, what can I do Lao Yao, just give me the order, if I frown, you will ask your brother to shoot me into a sieve." Yao Laoyu, who was dressed as a major general of the national army, had a smug face, but when he met Zhao Zhi, Yao Laoyu Haihuasi hugged his fists and saluted according to the rules of the rivers and lakes, but let a few senior staff members sent by the Ministry of Military Affairs to Yao Laoyu's side look dumbfounded.

"Commander Yao, we are all soldiers, we should speak straightforwardly, since your brother has said so, then I'm not welcome." Zhao Zhi put Yao Laoyu next to the map, "We have received the latest information from the military commander, in order to support their South Asian battlefield, the Japanese army has transferred two divisions from the northeast to the south and will pass through Shandong in the near future, and the troops at my hand are scattered in Dezhou, Jinan and Binzhou, I need a mobile force, you, can you help me?" ”

From Zhao Zhi's words, it can be heard that the more troops he asks for, the better, which makes Yao Laoyu a little distracted, it is not easy to pull up this team by himself, and now because of Zhao Zhi's words, he has to hand over all the troops in his hands, which makes Yao Laoyu a little undecided. "Commander, you can't promise Zhao Zhi, the guerrilla army is a team that you have worked so hard to pull up, why should you hand it over to him Zhao Zhi to command." Yao Laoyu was silent, and several of his subordinates whispered in an attempt to persuade Yao Laoyu to reject Zhao Zhi.

The noise in his ears made Yao Laoyu's eyes stare at him, these guys from the Ministry of Military Affairs will only secretly grasp their own little tricks if they don't do anything all day long, and now they dare to let themselves lose their morality in front of Zhao Zhi, don't they know that they were originally bandits? "Mr. Zhao, I still say what I said just now, even if you want to take my Yao Laoyu's life, I will definitely not frown." instructed his subordinates to drive out these senior staff members of the Ministry of Military Affairs, and Yao Laoyu decided to hand over all his guerrilla troops to Zhao Zhi's command.

"Don't worry, I just need to prepare a mobile unit in case of emergency, and I won't let them fight hard with the Japanese army." Seeing the hesitation in Yao Laoyu's heart, Zhao Zhi explained his plan with a smile, which made the big stone hanging in Yao Laoyu's heart fall to the ground. Yao Laoyu's Green Forest Guerrilla Army was mostly bandits and thieves who originally roared in the four provinces, and it would not be possible for these people to fight hard with the Japanese army on a large scale, but they also had their own advantages, that is, they had many eyes and ears, were familiar with the terrain, and were flexible and mobile.

The two non-stop raids and harassment operations organized in Hebei gave Zhao Zhi a taste of sweetness, and with Yao Laoyu's more than 10,000 green forest guerrilla army in the four provinces, Zhao Zhi planned to turn Shandong into the same as Hebei. "Lao Yao, you remember, your task is to attack and harass the Japanese army uninterruptedly, but you must not fight hard with them, it is still our old way before, fight and leave, and never stay in one place for more."

Zhao Zhi had a battle plan in his hand, and it was not difficult for those who were familiar with Hebei's raid and harassment operation to see that this plan was almost identical to Hebei's raid and harassment plan, but it was different in the division of the raid area. The Japanese puppet army in Shandong did not put the iron plate of Shandong's operation, the national army and the Eighth Route Army both had territory here, and Zhao Zhi's plan had to rely on their strength, regardless of whether the Ludong Theater and the Eighth Route Army raised troops to support Zhao Zhi's eastward movement, Zhao Zhi had to borrow Yao Laoyu's hand to drag them into the melee.

It's just that Zhao Zhi's family can't stop the two divisions of the Kwantung Army at all, but if the National Army and the Eighth Route Army are pulled, the situation may be better, as long as Zhao Zhi can take the Jiaodong Peninsula and take the 74th Army to land in Shandong before the Kwantung Army advances, the situation may be reversed. "Your mission is very important, I will provide you with a batch of weapons and ammunition, and the latest information of the military commander will also be shared with you, but you have to tell your people that the operation of harassing the Japanese army must not stop until they receive the order to end the operation."

Yao Laolu, who led more than 10,000 troops to gallop through the four provinces, was no longer the bandit grass who fell into the grass and mountains and forests, and Yao Laoyu, who had begun to learn to read and write with Mr. Teaching, laughed after listening to Zhao Zhi's explanation of the battle plan, "Mr. Zhao, you are going to pull the mallet of the Zizi National Army and fight a melee with Tubalu, okay, I am the best at doing this, you can rest assured that this matter will be handled by me, and the service will be handled by you." ”

Yao Laoyu was born as a bandit, the national army did not want to see him, the Eighth Route Army looked down on him, Yao Laoyu pulled the banner to recruit troops, but he was looked down upon by them, Zhao Zhi's disaster led to Yao Laoyu to find an opportunity to get angry, he not only wanted to drag these two guys in to fight with the Japanese army, he also took the opportunity to pull in from the two of them into his own guerrilla army.

"Don't say I'm not authentic, everyone who has benefits will take it together, and if there are difficulties, everyone will naturally have to fight together, I call everyone happy, and I can't run away." Sending Yao Laoyu away, Zhao Zhi explained to Ye Kong and the others with a smile. Zhao Zhi's movement in Shandong was so big, the national army and the Eighth Route Army did not move to make Zhao Zhi a little uncomfortable, if it weren't for the future of the thunder, Zhao Zhi was going to return to Burma, and the tone he just said was to deal with the Kwantung Army, but it was better to directly say that Zhao Zhi's small belly chicken intestines were specially designed to confuse the National Army and the Eighth Route Army.
