Bright Sword: An eight-year-old boy led a group to fight the Japanese invaders - Chapter 152 The 3rd Regiment is going to clash with the 114th Division

"Everyone, please tell me, how should this matter be handled?"

The boss said with a headache.

"Logically speaking, the commander of the 35th Army is the chairman of Sui Province, and the entire Sui Province belongs to the 35th Army. It is no problem for them to cover up.

However, Mengbao was occupied by the Japanese for more than a year, and was not recaptured until today by our Eighth Route Army Independent Brigade. This was won by the soldiers of the Independent Brigade with their lives.

The Chief of Staff spoke first and set the tone. Anyone who wanted to open their mouth and return the blanket to the 35th Army, forget it!

The people in the command center saw that the chief of staff's eyes were wide open and he kept looking at everyone's faces, and they were all amused by his expression.

The boss patted his shoulder and said with a smile, "My chief of staff, don't be so nervous. The independent brigade is a unit of our Eighth Route Army.

Since Mengbao has been recaptured by the Independent Brigade, there is no reason for us to hand it over so easily. Don’t worry about this.”

There are more industrial equipment and mineral resources there, and he can also buy weapons and bullet production lines.

As long as he is given half a year, he can guarantee to provide the Eighth Route Army headquarters with 2000 automatic rifles, 1 million matching bullets, 38 artillery pieces of various calibers, and two base quantities of related artillery shells every month.

Tell me, is this bag important or not?"

"Is this in his combat report? How come I don't know about this?" the boss asked in confusion.

The chief of staff said he was excited, but when the boss questioned him, he realized that he had said too much. He could only bite the bullet and say,

"This is what Wang Ye wrote to me, but I believe he can definitely complete it!"

Everyone still has confidence in Wang Ye. It is all his credit that the independent brigade has come this far.

The boss was having a headache thinking, "How about this, let the 35th Army go and talk to the Independent Brigade. Whoever caused the trouble should solve it. I don't care."

Doesn't this hurt the relationship?

As for Wang Ye, as long as the independent brigade wants to take the Mongolian bag, they and the 35th Army of the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army will sooner or later become enemies.

That afternoon, Wang Ye's telegram arrived. Wang Daben looked at the telegram and asked with some confusion,

"Uncle Zhao, the brigade commander asked us to talk, how should we talk?"

Wang Daben suddenly had an idea and said, "Fight first and talk later?"

"Yes, if we can drive away the devils, we can also drive away the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army.

These people are submissive to the devils, but never show mercy to us. Today, let them see the strength of the independent brigade."

The passion that Zhao Shengzheng had when he left Sichuan had almost been exhausted on the frontline battlefield. Now he only fights for the common people.

"Let's fight!" Wang Daben shouted, "My Third Regiment will fight this battle!"

Zhao Shengzheng didn't grab it, and it would be more appropriate for Wang Daben to go.

At the 114th Division camp in Qili, west of Mengbao City, Tan Yaowen almost burst into curses after receiving a telegram from the 35th Army Headquarters.

He suppressed his anger and said, "Let us negotiate with the Eighth Route Army? Is this a joke?

Zheng Jin reminded him, "Commander, the Eighth Route Army asked us to retreat 20 miles before dark. Will we retreat?"

Tan Yaowen waved his hands impatiently, "Why retreat? I don't believe the Eighth Route Army can ignore the cooperative relationship and take the responsibility of causing friction."

Zheng Jin didn't think so. The Eighth Route Army had always been a tough opponent. In the past two years, the Shanxi Suiyuan Army and the Eighth Route Army had experienced friction more than once. The Shanxi Suiyuan Army had basically not gained any advantage.

Moreover, this independent brigade is different from other Eighth Route Army troops. Not to mention the weapons and equipment, just the tone of their speech is very tough.

At four o'clock in the afternoon, Wang Daben led the Third Regiment to a temporary position five miles west of the city.

"Everyone, Mengbao was taken by our Third and Sixth Regiments at the cost of their lives. Now the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army shamelessly comes to us to demand our territory. We cannot indulge them.

Now I order the 114st and nd Battalions to move mechanically to the left and right wings of the th Division to block their route within the Mengbao territory.

The third battalion's main attack was on the front of the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army, with the goal of driving them westwards out of the Mengbao territory, as far as Butuo.

Not long after the 114st and nd Battalions left, Wang Daben received a letter from the th Division's signalman.

"Where's the messenger? Bring him in!"

"Captain, you may not know this, but the messenger exchanged a few moves with us and he's quite skilled."

"Then I want to see it even more!"

"Sir, I'm from Ping'an County. I joined the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army two years ago, and later followed the troops to Sui Province."

"Wow, our hometown is not far away, so it's okay for you to stay in Suixi with the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army. Do you want to consider joining our Eighth Route Army?

You should have seen our weapons and equipment along the way, they are all tough stuff, as long as you join our group, "

Wang Daben pointed at the guard next to him and said, "Give you a copy of all his equipment."

The superiors above me were also very nice to me. I am really sorry!"

Wang Daben did not force it, "How about this, you go back and tell Tan Yaowen that you must leave here before dark.

You must retreat to Bhoto early tomorrow morning, otherwise we will launch an attack.

As for the negotiation, we will discuss it after you retreat to Butuo."

This independent brigade actually dared to ask us to leave Mengbao. They are so bold. If I don’t leave, what can they do?

Pass on my order, have the troops build fortifications overnight. I'm here to test how brave the independent brigade is. "
