Draw the sword and cure the fear of insufficient firepower

"No, no, everyone is just flattering me. No matter what, the devils want to seize Changsha and then get their hands on Chongqing."

"This is what the general manager doesn't want to see, and this is what Enbo doesn't want to see either."

"Now that I'm here, I will naturally spare no effort to help Commander Xue fight the enemy."

Tang Enbo naturally knew that Xue Boling had something else in mind, but he had no way out.

The president's handwritten letter and the gun were his ultimatum. If he failed to win this battle, he would be angry.

At the very least, he can be accused of disobeying orders and being detrimental to the war of resistance.

Shooting is inevitable.

Now, he had no choice but to use all his fortune to fight for a stable future for himself.

"Okay, I feel much more relieved with your words. If we can win this battle, I will definitely take credit for you, my brother!" Xue Boling was overjoyed. It seemed that Tang Enbo had made up his mind this time.

As long as Tang Enbo really fights, with these 200,000 troops, the third line of defense can hold out for a few more days, buying time for Changsha.

It can also buy him precious time.

"Commander Xue, it's not that I didn't obey orders in this battle. It's just that the Japanese offensive was too fierce. I was worried about the instability in the rear, so we moved slower. Commander Xue, please don't blame me." Tang Enbo said after thinking for a while.

Now that he is under someone else's roof, he has no choice but to bow his head. It would be better for him to get along well with Xue Boling and eliminate the rift.

The general manager has said that if he doesn't fight this battle well, he will be finished.

What if Xue Boling takes the opportunity to add insult to injury? Wouldn't he be unable to recover?

He now wants to keep a backup plan, in case... the president really wants to punish him. Xue Boling should say a few good words for him because of his bloody battle this time.

"Brother Tang, you're worrying too much. How could I? Fortunately you walked slowly, otherwise it would be too late for me to transfer you back." Xue Boling waved his hand and smiled.

No matter what, everyone still has to save face.

If he really pursued Xue Boling for disobeying orders, there would probably be no result.

It’s better to do you a favor. We still have to rely on the 20th Corps to defend the position later.

"Hahaha……"

After saying that, the two looked at each other and smiled.

……

chongqing.

The general manager's people cleared out a room in the operations hall and used it as the general manager's lounge.

The CEO is taking a nap in his pajamas right now.

"Secretary Huang, someone just reported that representatives of the Eighth Route Army have arrived..." A lieutenant colonel from the office came in and reported.

Secretary Huang sat at the door of the headquarters to prevent anyone from disturbing him.

"No, what are the Eighth Route Army doing here at this time? Go and tell them that the general manager is busy with the war and won't see anyone!" Secretary Huang said unhappily.

No one can afford to disturb the president's rest.

"But... Secretary Huang, the Eighth Route Army representative said... they came here just to fight." The lieutenant colonel said stiffly.

As the saying goes, the prime minister’s door is of the third rank.

This is the secretary of the general manager. When the general manager is not around, she becomes the general manager.

Secretary Huang was already angry, and if he continued talking, he would definitely be criticized.

But the Eighth Route Army representative also seemed confident. Now that the war was tense, it would not be too late to hear what others had to say first.

"Come for the war? What help can they provide? No need to see them!" Secretary Huang stood up and said angrily when he heard this.

"What are you making so much noise for? You can't even sleep well!" Suddenly, the dissatisfied voice of the general manager was heard in the room.

"Reporting to the General Manager, the people in the office said that the representatives of the Eighth Route Army have arrived." Secretary Huang replied quickly.

"It's all your fault! The CEO just fell asleep and you came to make a noise. You should explain to him." Secretary Huang was frightened by the CEO's voice. The more he looked at the man in front of him, the more he disliked him.

"I...I..." The lieutenant colonel was suddenly panicked and stammered, unable to speak.

It would be a serious crime if this angered the general manager.

"Crench."

The CEO opened the door and yawned.

"I'm sleeping!" the general commander said unhappily, "What are the representatives of the Eighth Route Army doing here?"

"Report to the General! The Eighth Route Army representatives want to discuss the war in Hunan and Hubei with the General. They said they have a plan to repel the enemy!"

Upon hearing this, the general manager frowned and said, "Tell them to wait for me at the reception area."

"Yes!" the lieutenant colonel saluted quickly.

"Eighth Route Army? Could it be that their First Division is coming to support us?" The general manager murmured, "Secretary Huang, bring me my clothes."

The general decided to go and take a look, even though the Eighth Route Army was their mortal enemy.

But he had to admit that the Eighth Route Army was smarter than him, especially his arch-enemy.

Since the Eighth Route Army says they have a plan to repel the enemy, let's hear what they say.

……

Ten minutes later.

The president, accompanied by Secretary Huang, came to the reception area.

The two representatives of the Eighth Route Army have been waiting for a long time.

"Mr. General, hahaha, hello, hello." The two representatives of the Eighth Route Army stood up and greeted the general when they saw him coming.

"Hello, please sit down and talk." The general manager said with a stern face when he saw that it was an old acquaintance.

The representatives of the Eighth Route Army this time were Yang Yi and An Wenxian.

These are all old acquaintances from the Northern Expedition period.

Later, after the president came to power, the two sides split up, and the president had many battles with these two.

How can I have a good face when I see these two now?

Yang Yi and An Wenxian naturally knew the president's temper and personality, and they came here to discuss things, not to quarrel, so there was no need to compete with him.

Secretary Huang made tea for the three of them, then took out a pen and a notebook to take notes.

"Yang Yi, Wenxian, your army sent you two here this time. What instructions do you have for us?" The general asked condescendingly while leaning against the sofa after sitting down.

"Mr. General, the Japanese invaded Hubei and Hunan in a big way, and they are going to take Chongqing in one fell swoop. We are here with the instructions of the highest leader of the Eighth Route Army. We want to discuss with the Central Army how the two armies can work together to defeat the Japanese."

Yang Yi spoke first, calmly.

He knew very well that the Central Army was just holding on, with casualties reaching a historic high. If the Japanese continued to fight, the Central Army would be completely defeated.

The president is just unwilling to let go of his pride.

Explain the pros and cons to the president and he will definitely consider it.

"Don't worry about that. When you go back, thank your commander for his kindness on my behalf."

"The Nationalist Army is now holding back the main force of the Japanese on the east side of Changsha, and reinforcements from several other war zones are arriving continuously."

"Soon, the country will be able to encircle the main force of the Japanese invaders, and then we will surely annihilate them outside Changsha."

The CEO had a calm expression, his hands crossed on his abdomen, and spoke calmly.

It gives people a feeling of being calm and confident of victory.

"General, there is no need to hide this. Our army also knows the details."

"The National Army does have a lot of reinforcements, but the Japs are determined to take Changsha this time."

"The reinforcements were intercepted in various ways, and the Japanese frequently sent out planes to bomb along the way."

"The reinforcements have not arrived yet. How can we encircle the main force of the Japanese?"

An Wen, who was standing by, tried hard to suppress the urge to laugh and said.

This CEO is still as stubborn as ever.
