Admiral He quickly came back to his senses and said, "Loyalty, Miss Helen will be stationed in your Baoshan Brigade from today onwards, and you must ensure her safety." ”

"What?" Yue Weihan said in a speech, "Resident in Baoshan Brigade? ”

In other words, this American Yanma is indeed very beautiful, and it must be very cool to ride, but if you really want her to be stationed in the Baoshan Brigade, it will not be so wonderful, Xuzhou will soon usher in an extremely tragic battle, and the Baoshan Brigade is still too busy to take care of itself, Yue Weihan has no time or mood to ensure the safety of this American Yanma.

"Is there any problem?" Helen asked He Yingqin in English.

He Yingqin hurriedly pulled Yue Weihan to the side and whispered: "Zhongshu, this is Madame Jiang personally, you must let Miss Helen stay, and you must ensure her safety, let me tell you this, even if the entire Baoshan Brigade is gone, Miss Helen must not be allowed to make any mistakes!" ”

Yue Weihan frowned and said, "Boss, I'm afraid I can't guarantee this." ”

"You have to promise!" He Yingqin said solemnly, "Because Miss Helen's safety is worth 200 million US dollars!" ”

"Two hundred million dollars!?" Yue Weihan's eyes suddenly widened, this is not a small amount, you must know that at that time, the GDP of the national political axe was less than 2 billion US dollars a year, and even the GDP of Xiao Yuben was only more than 8 billion US dollars, do you say that 200 million US dollars can be a decimal?

"That's right." Admiral Ho said, "Do you know the Morgan consortium in the United States?" ”

"Yes." Yue Weihan said without thinking, "The steel king of the United States." ”

"Yo ho, I didn't expect your kid to know a lot about the United States, did you?" Admiral He said with a little surprise, "Since you know the Morgan Consortium, it's easy to say, do you know Miss Helen's true identity?" She is nominally a special correspondent for the Associated Press, but in fact she is the granddaughter of the head of the Morgan consortium! ”

"Really?" Yue Weihan turned his head when he heard this, and when he looked at Helen again, his eyes had obviously become strange.

Suddenly, Miss Helen's devilish figure turned into bundles of cold steel, then into a hideous cannon, then into an American-made machine gun, and finally into countless glittering steel helmets, and under those countless steel helmets, there was a vast army of countless [***] soldiers.

"So......" Admiral He patted Yue Weihan on the shoulder, and said rather ambiguously, "you have to ensure Miss Helen's safety no matter what, and you have to wait for her well. ”

It is no exaggeration to say that the US political axe is actually a puppet in the palm of the hands of these big corporations, and if the Morgan consortium secretly helps, it is really possible for the national political axe to win the $200 million in free economic aid.

However, it would be an exaggeration to say that Miss Helen was able to determine the preference of the Morgan consortium, even if Miss Helen was really the granddaughter of the elder Morgan, it is very doubtful how much of a role she could play in it, American capitalists are not philanthropists, they have always pursued the maximization of profits, not the maximization of justice.

But then again, since Miss Helen is the granddaughter of Morgan Sr., it is still necessary to have a good relationship with her, even if you can't help the national government to win 200 million U.S. dollars in free economic aid, but there is still hope for buying a few small steelworks from the Morgan consortium at a preferential price, and it is better than nothing if you can't cheat tens of thousands of tons of steel.

"Okay, I'll take care of it." Yue Weihan showed the face of the annihilator as he spoke, and said, "But the general seat, this is a hot mountain, and it is about 200 million US dollars in free aid, which is not trivial, you see that our Baoshan Brigade has just fought a big battle, and the equipment and ammunition have not been fully replenished, so if there is a ...... in the war."

"You, you." Admiral He smiled at Yue Weihan and said, "You really know how to reach out at the right time." ”

Yue Weihan salivated and said, "Boss, I'm not out of selfishness, it's all for the aid of 200 million US dollars." ”

"Alright." Admiral He shook his head and said with a smile, "I know that your kid is not a master who is willing to suffer, so let's do it, after returning to Wuhan, I will immediately allocate another batch of arms to you, twenty Makqin, one hundred Czech, four hundred flower organs plus ten base ammunition, how about it, it's interesting enough?" ”

Yue Weihan's heart blossomed, but his face still had a bitter look, and he said, "Boss, is there a little less ammunition?" ”

"You kid, why do you think that you and Yan Laoxi are fellow villagers?" Admiral He couldn't help but be happy, and said, "Okay, okay, I'll give you another ten base ammunition!" ”

"Yes!" Yue Weihan stood upright and saluted, "The Baoshan Brigade guarantees to complete the task." ”

"You kid." Admiral He smiled and said, "I knew you were deliberately pretending to be poor." ”

Admiral He explained a few more words to Miss Helen, and then left with the guards, and Yue Weihan immediately instructed Liu Yi: "Chief of Staff, you go and arrange it immediately, let Miss Helen live in the small courtyard of Reporter Zhao and Liu Xin, and then go to the artillery camp to transfer back the master's student who came back from studying in the United States, and let him be a translator for Miss Helen." ”

"Yes, I'll do it." Liu Yi nodded, and turned around immediately.

When Yue Weihan was about to leave, Miss Helen stepped forward and said, "Jue Turner Yue, can I do an interview with you?" ”

"Interview?" Yue Weihan was embarrassed, "I'm afraid I really don't have time for this, I have to go to the north gate to inspect the position of the 2nd Regiment." ”

"Inspect the position?" Miss Helen was overjoyed and said, "Oh, my God, I've never been to a real battlefield since I've grown up, can you take me with you?" ”

"Okay, let's go together." Yue Weihan is indispensable to say, since he has made up his mind to squeeze some oil and water out of this American girl, he naturally has to have a good relationship with her.

………… While the Baoshan Brigade was busy digging tunnels, the first batch of six group armies and more than 30 divisions assembled in the Fifth Theater had already launched an offensive from south to north along the Tianjin-Pudong Railway, the Weitai Highway, and the canal.

This made Chairman Chiang, who once again came to the front line in Xuzhou to personally supervise the battle, very excited.

At the same time, the major central media also publicized the active offensive on the Xuzhou battlefield as never before, and all of a sudden, a general optimism spread throughout the country and the whole nation, so that the vast majority of the Chinese people believed that the opportunity for a strategic counteroffensive would soon be ushered in, and the army would soon be expelled from the country, and the War of Resistance would soon be over.

The only thing that makes the Chinese people regret is that the heroic unit Baoshan Brigade has not been able to continue its glory this time.

………… Beiping, the headquarters of the North China Front Army.

The new chief of staff, Major General Sasaki, strode into the office of the senior general of the temple, and immediately suddenly retracted his feet and said uprightly: "Your Excellency, the command post of the front line of the base camp has just sent an urgent telegram, and the Chinese army that is attacking north along the canal, the Jinpu Railway, and the Weitai Highway has already reached Jining, Fucheng, and Juxian respectively. ”

"Oh?" The general of the temple suddenly got up and walked to the large map hanging on the wall.

Major General Sasaki hurriedly stepped forward to pick up the command pole and found the locations of Jining, Fucheng and Juxian from the map.

"Yo Si." The general of the temple nodded happily and said, "The offensive of the Chinese army this time is very fierce, it seems that they are really planning to have a strategic decisive battle with the imperial army on the battlefield in Xuzhou!" ”

Major General Sasaki said, "This should be undoubted. ”

"Sasaki-kun." The senior general of the temple said, "Immediately telegraph to Okabe-kun, order the garrisons of Jining, Fucheng and Juxian to hold the enemy in front of them at any cost, and then order the 21st to 30th Divisions that have just been transferred to the North China battlefield to complete the formation as quickly as possible and support the Xuzhou battlefield!" ”

"Hello." Major General Sasaki bowed his head abruptly and immediately took the order.

Seeing the figure of Major General Sasaki go away, the senior general of Terauchi walked behind the desk and picked up the phone, and said, "Has General Yoshio Shinozuka arrived?" Invite him in now! ”

Soon, a tall lieutenant general of the army strode into the office of the general in the temple, immediately straightened his feet, and said loudly: "Your Excellency, General! ”

"Shinozuka-kun." The general of the temple said, "It's been hard all the way." ”

Yoshio Shinozuka said: "As an emperor [***] person, what is this rush? ”

"Yo Xi, Shinozuka-kun is worthy of being a son of a samurai family!" The general of the temple said happily, "You have already received the letter of appointment from the base camp, right?" ”

Yoshio Shinozuka said, "I've received it." ”

The general said, "So what do you think?" ”

Yoshio Shinozuka said: "I think there are two things that need to be dealt with urgently, the first is to urgently transfer veterans from at least two brigades to enrich the 5th Division, and the second is to need a series of victories to boost the confidence and morale of the 5th Division!" I believe that until the confidence and morale of the 5th Division have been fully restored, it is no longer appropriate to take on the heavy responsibility of the frontal main attack. ”

"Yo Si." The general nodded happily and said, "Shinozuka-kun, your views are completely consistent with mine, and the 5th Division will definitely restore the glory of the 'Steel Army' in your hands, I am convinced of this!" In addition, I solemnly recommend to you an excellent candidate for the chief of staff, who is Tengda Tomochusa, the commander of the front command post of the headquarters camp. ”

"Hello." Yoshio Shinozuka bowed his head abruptly and said, "I fully believe in the vision of His Excellency the General. ”

"Yo Si." The general nodded again and said, "Shinozuka-kun, the 5th Division will entrust you." ”

"Hello." Yoshio Shinozuka bowed his head again and said, "I will never disappoint His Excellency the General's expectations, and I will definitely restore the glory of the 5th Division to the 'Steel Army'." ”
