"Chief Xue, there is no good banquet, are these people looking for us to complain?"

"Hehe, I can't see it, Leng Guoguang has touched the interests of some people, these people can't do anything about him, and they don't know that they heard the news that we are coming, so they deliberately came to the door. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ”

"Then you still tell them so much, aren't you afraid that Leng Guoguang will misunderstand?"

"What's the misunderstanding, if I don't tell them so much, how do I know what they're thinking?" Xue Boling smiled, "When I look back and see Leng Guoguang, I can tell him." ”

"Feelings, you're playing with them!" Wu Xiqi couldn't cry or laugh, looking at the meal just now, Xue Boling chatted with those people was cordial and lively, as if he had met relatives.

It turned out that he had a purpose.

"We can't come for nothing, can we?"

"I'm convinced."

Along the way, I never encountered this kind of thing again, and I arrived in Xinxiang smoothly.

Leng Feng personally greeted him outside the city.

"Chief Xue, welcome to Xinxiang!"

"Sir Leng, young hero, it's better to see than to hear!"

"Hahaha......" The two big hands clasped tightly together, their eyes looked at each other, and the two of them laughed at the same time.

Xue Boling usually doesn't smile, and his subordinates are very afraid of him, in fact, this is also his style as a leading general, in his bones, he is actually a very good person, just a bit of an old-fashioned military style.

The two have worked closely together many times on the battlefield, and it can be said that they have a tacit understanding, although they have never met, they have been friends for a long time, and this time they finally met.

Both of them are a little unattractive, but they have both become the most prestigious generals of this era, and they have a sense of cherishing heroes as soon as they meet, although the age difference between the two is a generation.

Xue Boling's age is a bit too old to be Leng Feng's father, after all, he is only in his early forties, but the elders are completely fine.

Even in terms of military seniority, Xue Boling is also Leng Feng's predecessor.

"Chief Xue, please!"

Leng Feng sat in Wu Xiqi's position, Wu Xiqi only got into another car, and the convoy started and entered Xinxiang City.

"Big brother, where are you going?" Cong Hu turned his head and asked.

"Colonel Cong calls you big brother?" Xue Boling asked in surprise.

"When Cong Hu and I and two other brothers defended Nanjing, the battlefield was righteous, I was the oldest, and Cong Hu was the third." Leng Feng explained with a smile.

"I see."

"Tiger, let's go to Yangxin Hall first, Uncle Li is waiting for us."

"Uncle Li?"

"It's Chief Li, in my place, it's inconvenient to call Chief Li directly, so I'm casual and call Uncle Li directly, I'm a little used to it."

Xue Boling was surprised in his heart, although Li Delin was kind, not everyone could open his mouth to say "uncle", Leng Feng's relationship with him was so close, it was obvious that the friendship between the two was very deep.

At the door of Yangxin Hall, Li Delin took some guards from Huangxue Village, he did not wear a military uniform, but a casual dress made of cotton and linen, and wore a pair of black cloth shoes under his feet, and the whole person looked very comfortable and leisurely.

"Degong." Xue Boling got out of the car and walked forward quickly, Li Delin was older and a giant of the party-state

"Brother Boling, you're welcome."

"Degong is in good health?" Xue Boling greeted.

"It's okay, if you come a few days earlier, I won't dare to come out to see you." Li Delin laughed, pointed to his right cheek and said, "My face is swollen and hard to see." ”

"Degong, for the cause of the Anti-Japanese War and the future of the party and the state, you have to take care of your health."

"I won't be able to die for a while, how about it, the war in eastern Henan is still going well, right?" Li Delin welcomed Xue Boling and his entourage in.

I went to the gazebo in the back garden and sat down.

"Chilled watermelon, Boling, come, eat." Li Delin greeted.

"Thank you, Degong." Xue Boling was also not polite, took a piece of watermelon, took a bite and said, "Sweet, not bad, Degong, you are blessed." ”

"Yes, I'm afraid that if I live here, I won't even want to go back to Guangxi." Li Delin quipped.

"Uncle Li has no problem staying for as long as he wants, I have a lot of things to ask you about here." Leng Feng smiled and sat down.

"Chief of Staff Wu, you can also eat a piece." Leng Feng took a piece of watermelon and handed it to Wu Xiqi.

"Thank you, Chief Leng." Although Wu Xiqi is older, no one can ignore Leng Feng's current power and status, which is a rising star in the army who intersects with Xue Boling on an equal footing.

"Chief of Staff Wu can call me Guoguang."

After an afternoon in the car, I was also a little hot and thirsty, so I ate a piece of watermelon to cool down and quench my thirst.

"Boling, what's next?"

"What Mr. Chiang means is that the focus of the next Japanese attack will be along the Yangtze River and most likely from the coast of Fujian to attack Liangguang and block our sea lines of communication." Xue Boling wiped his mouth and hands with the towel in the guard's hand, and said slowly, "Summoning me back this time should be the defensive battle plan for the Battle of Wuhan." ”

"So do you think Wuhan can't be defended?"

"If you want to defend Wuhan, you must first defend Jiujiang, if Jiujiang is lost, then Wuhan will be dangerous." Xue Boling did not hide the idea of tucking it up, Li Delin has been in battle for a long time, and experience has commanded that although Leng Feng is a rising star, his command ability and grasp of the overall strategic situation also have certain uniqueness, isn't the purpose of his coming to Xinxiang to discuss with these two people the strategy of the next war against Japan?

Jiujiang is the gateway to Wuhan, once Jiujiang is lost, the Japanese invaders can come to the city, and the three towns of Wuhan will have the pain of war and slaughter.

"Although we lost Xuzhou in the Battle of Xuzhou, we also dealt a heavy blow to the Japanese army, and the Japanese army also needs time to recover, as well as prepare for the next attack, this time they lost two main divisions, plus the previous losses, at least they will not have a big action in three months, I think that in Fujian and Liangguang, they may have a risky military plan." Li Delin nodded slowly.

"However, according to the information we have so far, the main forces of the Japanese army are concentrated in the Yangtze River valley, and there is no sign of southward movement?"

"There seems to be no sign of a decrease in the Japanese army in the Xuzhou area, which shows that the Japanese army has not given up the idea of advancing west from the Longhai line and then moving south along the Pinghan line." Cold front plugging. Come in and say a word.

"Kunimitsu, what do you think, just say it."

"Uncle Li, Brother Boling, from the ambition and appetite of the Japanese army, their most urgent hope now is to defeat us militarily, force us to surrender to them, and achieve the goal of making us surrender first, and I also know that they may not be able to afford to fight a war of attrition with us, half a year, a year, as long as we do not lose the country, we can continue to consume with him, and in the end, it must be us who wins, of course, I don't have to doubt this, so the Japanese army must want to win quickly, The problem is that we can't follow the ideas of the Japanese army, we have to drag it out and consume it, so as long as we can give up, we can give up, even Wuhan! ”

"Give up Wuhan, I'm afraid no one dares to say that now?"

"When I say give up, I don't mean that before the enemy comes, I ran away first, just like the Battle of Xuzhou, we finally decided to give up, but before we gave up, we still won a great victory in Taierzhuang and ate the main force of a field division of the Japanese army." Leng Feng explained, "How many field divisions does the Japanese army have, we will eat one today, and one more tomorrow, think about it, since the start of the war, we have defeated several main divisions of the Japanese army?" ”

"When Chief Leng was in Nanjing, he almost disabled the 16th Division, and later in Huainan, Degong and Guoguang joined forces to almost annihilate the 13th Division, and then in Taierzhuang, the main force of the 10th Division was completely annihilated, and then Luxi, Guide, the 14th Division was almost completely annihilated by us, these are the four main divisions!" Wu Xiqi broke his fingers and counted.

"Hey, four Japanese field divisions, more than 100,000 people, this is a remarkable achievement, Brother Guoguang, almost all of them are you!"

"Brother Boling praised it, I can eat it alone, if it weren't for the help of Duke De and Brother Boling, I wouldn't be so bold." Leng Feng said with a smile.

"These four divisions are the most elite units of the Japanese army, and even if Japan and Japan have a perfect military service law, if they want to restore the combat effectiveness of these four master regiments, they will not be able to do it in a year."

"But they can mobilize millions of troops at any time, and they are all demobilized soldiers, which is something we can't compare."

"There are soldiers, what about weapons and ammunition, to equip millions of troops, how many weapons and equipment are needed, as well as materials and ammunition for their training and combat, these things do not come out of thin air, even if the materials are sufficient, it will take time, and the factory can produce them, if at the beginning, the Japanese army planned to fight a full-scale war with us, then they could immediately arm hundreds of thousands of troops to China, but they didn't think so at first, so their investment can only be refueling." Leng Feng analyzed.

"It makes sense, unless the Japanese army can be patient and prepare for half a year."

"If that's the case, it's really troublesome."

"As far as we know about the Japanese army, they will not wait for half a year, or even three months, they will launch an offensive plan again, this time it will be more fierce and more difficult to deal with, whether they can survive it, this is related to the future and fate of the Anti-Japanese War, and it is also related to the fate of our people's net worth, so how to resist the Japanese attack in the next step is very crucial." Leng Feng said.

"Kunimitsu's words are very reasonable, but now we can't form a joint force at all, the party and the state are fighting for power and profit, and some people are still colluding with Japan and himself behind their backs, and there are too few people who can help us in the international community, and it seems that it is difficult to resist the strong strength of the Japanese army with our current strength alone."

"Although we are not as strong as the Japanese army, we can still defeat them, Uncle Li, have you read the pamphlet I gave you?"

"I've read it, it's very incisive, and it's definitely not something that ordinary people can write about." Li Delin nodded.

"It's really not written by ordinary people, this is the speech of Mr. Yang in Yan'an, I got a copy from a special channel, I was deeply inspired, and I think it makes a lot of sense, Uncle Li, don't blame me, I didn't tell you where it came from." Leng Feng said.

"Actually, I've seen it for a long time, we have been working for so many years, and I can still see the style of his articles, but I'm curious, how did you get this booklet?"

"This is actually not a secret, they originally planned to be released publicly, but for some reasons, it didn't happen, and I, through the relationship between General Fan, got such a copy."

"Oh, that's the case, that's no wonder." Li Delin suddenly realized that this old General Fan had a connection with Yan'an, and it was basically a secret that was not made public.

Leng Feng has a good relationship with General Fan, and it is not difficult to get documents in this regard, not to mention, this is not a secret.

"I've also heard of this "On Protracted War", but I haven't seen the original content, I didn't expect Guoguang to get a copy here?" Xue Boling was also quite surprised.

"Then I'll give you a photocopy, no matter what kind of beliefs, I think his strategic policy toward Japan is correct, and it is consistent with Chairman Chiang's idea of exchanging a time and exchanging small victories for big victories." Leng Feng said.

"Okay, I'll read it later." Xue Boling nodded.
