It should be said that Yan Laoxi's industry is still very good, at least he has done a good job in the Taiyuan Arsenal, as for the treatment of the workers is almost good, and the management method is a little rough, which is nothing, in fact, the treatment of Chinese workers at this time is definitely much better than that of Japanese workers, and everyone in Japan can do it with taste, and when they go to China, they will have a bunch of stinky problems, as if they are more delicate than European and American workers.

What is the basis for the accumulation of capital? If you can't play skills, you have to rely on blood and sweat, don't worry so much when it's not time to enjoy happiness, honestly work capitalists or workers, they all have something to eat, toss and toss, and can only drink the northwest wind together, so Yang Feng never interferes with how the capitalists in his system manage their own enterprises, the only thing he can do is to make the conditions of the enterprises directly under him better, as a demonstration to guide them to improve labor relations.

"Yan Shibo, I went to Yan'an this time, the main purpose is oil, Yanchang is definitely a big oil field, but it has not been well developed, and now it will not work if it is not developed, the British and the Japanese are fighting, I am afraid that they will not be able to keep Southeast Asia, we can't let the Japanese choke their necks."

Development is not difficult for me, talents, technology, funds are not lacking, but this transportation aspect has to rely on you, it is too early to talk about the railway to Yan'an, but the highway must be repaired. At the end of the day's visit, when Yang Feng and Yan Xishan were alone together after they were full of wine and food, he said to Yan Laoxi with a sincere face.

"This virtuous nephew can rest assured, this place in Shanxi, isn't it our own decision, isn't it just to build roads? You find a few road construction experts to be in charge, and I will transfer hundreds of thousands of migrant workers to you, and you don't have to pay the money. The Shanxi provincial government has it. Yan Laoxi patted his chest and said.

"Then I'll thank you first." Yang Feng said busily.

"These are small things, but do you really think it's a good thing for us to help them like this?" Anyway, there are no outsiders around now, and there is no need for Yan Xishan to hide, although he is not very satisfied with Fu Zuoyi's escape from his control because of Yang Feng's support, but he also knows very well that Shanxi is now completely controlled by Pingjin economically. Militarily, he has no ability to confront it, and the best choice in this case is to follow Yang Feng to make a fortune, he sells coal to Pingjin alone in a year, accounting for half of his total income, and he can't do it if he wants to be with Yang Feng.

"Yan Shibo, is oil a good thing?" Yang Feng said with a smile.

"Of course it is, now everyone's eyes are blood-red, isn't it just for those big oil fields?" Yan Laoxi said without hesitation.

"Since it's a good thing, what else do we care?" Yang Feng said lightly.

Yan Xishan stared at him for a while, and suddenly he smiled and said, "Yes." Since it's a good thing, naturally don't care about those messy things. ”

Yang Feng and his entourage stayed in Shanxi for half a month before setting off for Yan'an, during which time the Japanese went crazy, and Hangzhou Bay became the Dead Sea overnight, and the ships that transported supplies to the more than 200,000 landing troops on the front line were sunk one by one, and in the first day, including the warships that recklessly broke in, 11 ships of various types were sunk by mines.

Needless to say, they also know who did it. But there is no way to know that there is no way to do it, at this time, no matter how crazy they are, they don't have the courage to find Yang Feng's theory. Fortunately, these acoustic mines only bombed large ships of more than 500 tons, and small boats of one or two hundred tons could still pass freely, and these small boats could be used to transport supplies to more than 200,000 troops, and it would be unbelievable that they could still meet the needs. How are you going to let me fight? This is not the same as in the Northeast, there is no place to grab it, and in total, it is so big to occupy the area, and there is no condition to play to feed the war with war.

Japan Zhengfu was also so anxious that he scratched his ears and cheeks, and no one expected Yang Feng to hold back such a big move behind him. The goal of looking at this goods is to send troops to Shanghai in a pot! However, in a hurry, there were few good countermeasures they could come up with, and it was nothing more than to requisition a large number of small civilian ships, all of which could be used by inland river merchant ships, small fishing boats, and small sailing boats, and at the same time let the shipyard urgently produce a batch of small boats of three or four hundred tons, so as to meet the needs of the Shanghai battlefield as much as possible.

But these small ships want to dock, it is not an easy task, there is no warship escort, the Chinese Air Force, which was worried that the losses are too big and did not have a decent attack, will not let go of these mouths, and attacking these ships does not need the level of a double demon, the old Hawke is very useful to do this job, fifty kilograms of aerial bombs, and even machine guns are very effective, for a time Hangzhou Bay has become a graveyard for Japanese ships, and almost every ship of materials transported to the Japanese army is soaked in blood, As a result, they had to change the delivery to every night, which made it much less efficient.

However, to Yang Feng's surprise, this desperate situation forced out the ferocity of the Japanese, just when his convoy entered the area controlled by the Hong Army, a desperate battle was unfolding on the Qiantang River, Matsui Shigen concentrated five divisions, and suddenly launched a full-line attack on the Qiantang River defense line, which had been relatively calm before.

The defense line of the Qiantang River has always been in charge of Zhang Fakui's Eighth Army, because there is a big river to block it, and it itself is not the main combat direction of the Japanese army, plus after Hangzhou was abandoned, the main force of the air force was all withdrawn to the new base in Wuxi, so he has been relatively idle during this time, and the sudden onslaught of the Japanese army confused him.

"Lose your mother, the Japanese are crazy!" This guy looked at the river in the early morning in amazement, countless rubber boats, small fishing boats, and even rafts were braving the dense bullets on the shore, struggling to move forward little by little, from time to time there were broken bones hit by shells in the river, and pieces of red blood elongated by the river were particularly conspicuous in the rising sun.

The Japanese attack began with a sneak attack at dawn, but it was discovered by the soldiers of the 69th Army Ruan Zhaochang on the south bank defense line, and the result had to change from a sneak attack to a strong attack, but the defense line of Liu Heding's division in the west was successfully attacked by the Japanese army, and controlled a section of the river.

But even so, Zhang Fakui knew very well that he couldn't hold it for long, his Eighth Army originally had four divisions, and later added two divisions, but these six divisions were basically all miscellaneous, and most of them were adapted from Sun Chuanfang's old department. The equipment is poor, the personnel are insufficient, not to mention the generals, they all know that they have no future under the bald guys, and they just play mahjong on weekdays, but fortunately, there is Qiantangjiang in front of them. Otherwise, it would have been defeated at this time, and the only ones that can be fought now are Ruan Zhaochang's 57th Division and Yang Bufei's 61st Division in the first phase of Huangpu that still have some combat effectiveness.

"When will the reinforcements arrive?" He looked at the Japanese army on the river with a gloomy face, like a crazy Japanese army attacking at any cost, and asked Huang Qixiang, the chief of staff beside him.

"Janssen is rushing here, but it will be tomorrow morning at the earliest." Huang Qixiang said that although Yang Sen's counteroffensive almost wiped out the 15th Division, his own losses also exceeded 10,000, and he rested in the area of Ningguo after the battle.

"Then tell the ministries that even if they die, they have to die on the defensive line, and so far we have not had a real defeat with the Japanese, and this head cannot be opened from us. Whoever dares to run away will not kill him, even if the chairman of the committee does not kill him, I, Zhang Fakui, will not let him go. The creature said viciously.

His order was very effective, the defensive line that had been somewhat shaken under the frantic attack of the Japanese army gradually began to stabilize, in the final analysis, their advantage was obvious, at this time the Qiantang River was the flood season, the wide river surface was unsheltered, the Japanese army was like a target on it, and the defenders had well-built fortifications. The rest is nothing more than firing under the Japanese artillery fire on the north bank, and the vast majority of the soldiers of the Eighth Army are from Zhejiang. They knew very well that if the Qiantang River defense line was lost, the Japanese army would sweep through eastern Zhejiang, so after the initial panic, they gradually adapted to the rhythm of the battlefield, and the losses of the attacking Japanese army began to increase sharply.

At this time, reinforcements from the Air Force also arrived, although in small numbers. But the Japanese artillery was well suppressed, and the vast majority of the first batch of Japanese troops who forced their way across died in the river, and thousands of floating corpses flowed into the sea on the Qiantang River to feed the fish.

However, on the section of the river that was breached, the Japanese still braved the air force's strafing. Continuously crossing the Qiantang River, Yang Bufei and Liu Heding, who counterattacked, made very little progress, and at most they could only delay the Japanese army and even block it.

This is not surprising, in the final analysis, regardless of the level of equipment or the quality of soldiers, the miscellaneous players of the Yang system, and the gap between the Japanese army and the Japanese army is huge, so far on the battlefield can only attack the German army and the Sichuan army that is more German than the German armor division, and even the Gui department can't do this, not to mention these Sun Chuanfang, Chen Tiaoyuan, and even Qi Xieyuan's old department.

Zhang Fakui handed over the defense of the river to Huang Qixiang and Ruan Zhaochang, and personally led the guards to the front line to supervise the battle, and at the same time recruited the security regiments and police teams in Xiaoshan, Shaoxing, and even Ningbo.

The battle lasted from dawn to night, the Japanese attack not only did not slow down, but took advantage of the night cover began to strengthen, especially without the attack of the Chinese Air Force, their speed of crossing the river immediately accelerated, so that the war quickly entered the white heat, in Zhang Fakui's strict orders and the fear of the fall of his hometown, the original combat effectiveness of the motley cards are now also fighting bloody, the south bank of the Qiantang River is full of Chinese and Japanese soldiers fighting with bayonets, blood stained the rolling river.

Until midnight, the long-standing Japanese army finally used their specialty weapon, on the Liu He Ding front, the Japanese army in this war, the first large-scale use of poison gas bombs, Liu He Dingbu, who had never encountered such a thing, immediately collapsed, even Zhang Fakui stared at the blood-red eyes and ordered to shoot at the rout.

It's not that the Japanese really cared about any international influence before, so they didn't dare to use gas bombs on the battlefield, but Boss Yang had already threatened, if the Japanese army dared to use gas bombs on the battlefield, then he would sell them to the bald guys, he had just built a gas bomb processing plant in Zhangjiakou, this thing was not high-tech, really let him produce sarin, VX did have to go back to find someone to inquire, but mustard gas or something is no pressure.

The threat to him has never been ignored by the Japanese, the Yanhuang laboratory is well-known in the high-tech field, to say that an organization that can even make organophosphorus will not make poison gas, that is to kill them do not believe it, it is precisely for this reason, so although the Japanese army suffered heavy casualties, but has not dared to use this magic weapon on the Huangpu River front, today it seems that it is also out of the blue, after all, when it comes to life and death, the rest is not considered.

"What do the Japanese want to do? They don't make sense to do that?" After receiving the news that the Japanese army was attacking the defense line of the Qiantang River, Boss Yang was also a little confused, and the attack to the south would definitely not be for Shanghai. Nanjing, open up the port of Ningbo as a second supply port to avoid his mines, this is possible, but after the Qiantang River bridge is blown up, the Chinese air force has air supremacy, and it is useless for them to do so. When the time comes, no matter how many pontoon bridges they build, they will be easily blown up.

"Will they give up the attack on Shanghai?" Wu Peifu, who was looking at the map, said that the staff was not around, and he and Zhang Zuoxiang had no choice but to act as Yang Feng's advisers now.

This old guy woke up Yang Feng with a word, the war has reached this point, and it is no longer realistic to think about taking Shanghai and fighting Nanjing, and the best choice is to expand the occupied area first to play to nourish the war.

"It's broken, Guangzhou is going to be in trouble." Yang Feng immediately found the next target of the Japanese army, Guangzhou, and easily took Hong Kong in the hands of the British.

"Then use Guangzhou as a base and divide the troops into three routes. All the way to the north and south, the Japanese army will join Fuzhou, so that the entire southeast coast will be in their hands, all the way along the Guangdong-Hanzhou Railway to Hunan, where they can fight, all the way to take advantage of the opportunity of the main force of the Gui system to attack Li Bai's hometown, and even kill Yungui, so that even if China cannot be destroyed, at least most of the southeast can be stripped away. Wu Peifu then completed the next strategy of the Japanese army.

"Not only that. It is also possible to use the two Guangxi as bases to attack Southeast Asia in the south, forming a province that includes the southeastern provinces of our country. Coupled with the huge occupation areas of French Indochina, British Malaya, Dutch Indochina, Burma, Siam, and even direct attacks on India. There is oil here, there is coal, there is coal, and India still has enough steel resources. Then the Japanese are really fat. Boss Yang said with emotion.

"What should I do?" Wu Peifu looked at him sinisterly.

"Let them fight, as long as the Japanese are willing to fight Southeast Asia, we can lend them Liangguang for the time being, anyway, they will definitely have to build these two places into rear bases, and the railways and factories built by the time will not be built for us. Someone is building for us for free, so why not?" Yang Feng said with a smile.

Just when the two guys were insidiously discussing how to let the Japanese vicious dog bite the British, Zhang Fakui's division on the Qiantang River defense line had to retreat, and the rout of Liu Heding's division made the entire front become a broken embankment, and by midnight the Japanese troops pouring into the south bank from the gap had exceeded one division, and soon several other divisions on the original riverbank defense line had to abandon their positions, and tens of thousands of men and horses of the Eighth Army retreated to the south in confusion, but at this time, the vanguard of the Yang Sen Division, which was marching in a hurry, had also begun to attack the Japanese flank.

For this elite force that forced a division commander to a seppuku, the Japanese army did not dare to be careless at all, and they have now broken through the defense line of the Qiantang River, it is no big deal whether Zhang Fakui escapes or not, and the most important thing is to keep the existing achievements first, so that the Eighth Army can avoid a major rout similar to the retreat of the Songhu Battle in the original history.

Yang Sen's 23rd Group Army was composed of his own 20th Army and Pan Harrier's 23rd Army, the first to arrive was Guo Xunqi's 144th Division, his division was also the most capable of fighting under Liu Xiang, even before the training and redressing, it had resisted the attack of the main force of the Hong Army, and now after the training of the American World War I veterans, the combat effectiveness has increased dramatically, and as soon as it was put into the battlefield, the 110th Division of the Japanese Army, which was responsible for blocking them, was a little unable to hold on. The Japanese troops who were crossing the river had to transfer another division to block the attack on the Lin'an line.

At the same time as breaking through the defense line of the Qiantang River, under the cover of the reorganized Chinese task force, the Japanese 105th Division landed in Zhenhai, and Zhang Fakui's department, which had withdrawn to Shaoxing, was immediately cut off from the back road.

In this case, Zhang Fakui had no point in defending Shaoxing again, so he had to retreat west to Zhuji, and with the help of the mountainous area to arrange the defensive line, the Japanese army who landed in Zhenhai did not go north, but directly copied the bald man's hometown to the south, and put the prince's biological mother Mao Fumei under house arrest.

Ningbo, Shaoxing, and Fenghua fell one after another, making Nanjing's bald guy furious, not only ordered Liu Heding to be sent to a military court and then shot, but also removed Zhang Fakui's post, and the commander of the Eighth Army was replaced by Huang Shaohong, Zhejiang Province, of course, he was mainly caught by himself who didn't even keep his hometown, and his wife was arrested to give anger, although he no longer wanted this wife, but after all, it was also his original match.

Just when the bald guy was in a hurry, Yang Feng's convoy finally arrived in Yan'an, where he was warmly welcomed, it was definitely a colorful flag, gongs and drums were noisy, and when he got off the car, Boss Yang was choked by the dust stepped on by the men from northern Shaanxi who beat the drum and twisted Yangge, and covered his stomach with Tang Ying, who was accompanying him.
