After graduating from Huangpu, he rose to prominence as a regiment leader.

In fact, the other party's purpose of coming here today is very clear, which is to win over the Independent Brigade and see if he can continue to stay in his Jinsui Army.

Qin Feng knew this very well.

"No loss? Brigade Commander, did we get weapons and equipment, or manpower?" Wang Ke blinked, looking thoughtful.

"No, it's a compilation, right?"

According to the current situation, the independent brigade has no shortage of ordinary weapons and equipment.

Up to now, the independent brigade has become richer and richer as the battle has been fought, having seized a large number of weapons and equipment from the Japanese.

The armored battalions, artillery regiments, cavalry battalions and other organizations all made a lot of money and became rich, and even other brother units and friendly forces also benefited from it.

As for manpower, they have no shortage of it, because the independent brigade is currently expanding rapidly. Every day, many spontaneously organized armed forces come here one after another, all because of Qin Feng's reputation, and they all want to join the independent brigade.

The entire independent brigade's strength expanded rapidly, with at least three to four thousand people increasing every day.

The exact number has not been counted yet, but it is definitely approaching 70,000 or 80,000!

They are a brigade with a size of nearly 70,000 to 80,000 people. It is really inappropriate to be a brigade-level unit!

"Wang Ke, you actually guessed wrong!" Qin Feng smiled and shook his head.

"What exactly is it?" Wang Ke couldn't help but ask.

"Chu Yunfei!"

"Ah? Chu Yunfei?" Wang Ke was dumbfounded.

"Yes! To be exact, it is a complete 358th Regiment!" Qin Feng said in a deep voice.

Wang Ke almost thought he had heard it wrong: "Complete, 358th Regiment?"

She had heard of the need for equipment and organization, but this was the first time she had heard of the need for people.

Could this be what they mean, that a man will be troubled for the rest of his life by the things he could not get when he was young?

It seems that the brigade commander is still obsessed with the nominal commander of the Third Regiment!

But soon, Wang Ke came to his senses.

"Commander, is this because you want to protect Captain Chu?"

"Yes! He was able to resolutely lead his troops to follow me at the beginning, so I will naturally not let him down." Qin Feng breathed a sigh of relief.

Commander Yan's purpose in punishing Chu Yunfei was nothing more than to eliminate his influence in the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army.

And he directly saved Chu Yunfei, which was equivalent to arm wrestling with Commander Yan, and the final result was naturally that he had more bargaining chips.

Moreover, Chu Yunfei's value is much higher than anyone can imagine.

Whether it was commanding operations or using both civil and military strategies, Chu Yunfei would display the demeanor of a great general in the future.

It was impossible for him to just leave Brother Chu alone, both morally and logically.

Besides, Qin Feng had even prepared the entries for him, so how could he be absent?

"Chu Yunfei's 358th Regiment and the Independent Brigade have fought side by side for so long. Now is the best time." Qin Feng spoke slowly.

From the Cangyun Mountains, all the way north, finally arriving at Taiyuan City!

The 358th Regiment has become one with the Independent Brigade, and the soldiers below also recognize Qin Feng. Their loyalty is unquestionable, and there is no obstacle in assigning entries. It's the best time with the right timing, location, and people!

"That's true, but Commander, how did Commander Yan agree to your request?" Wang Ke looked confused again.

"There are also the two American-equipped regiments and the Taiyuan Arsenal. Even if the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army is rich, I'm afraid it will bleed heavily!"

A reinforced regiment of 5,000 troops and a fully-formed artillery battalion, for which Commander Yan put in so much effort.

In addition, after these major battles, the 358th Regiment also reaped great rewards, and its development speed was much better than that of Li Yunlong and others.

The number of artillery pieces in the hands of the 358th Regiment alone has doubled.

"Wang Ke, actually you have to agree even if Commander Yan doesn't agree!" Qin Feng said calmly.

When it comes to extortion, he is number one in the entire northwest of Shanxi, and no one can be second to him. Even Old Li has to back off from him. Who has ever seen anyone dare to ask for such a high price from Commander Yan?

"why?"

"According to the latest international news, the Japs, the Tank Country and Italy have formed a military alliance!" Qin Feng said slowly.

"Alliance? Commander, you are right!" Wang Ke's face suddenly became serious.

Qin Feng had discussed with her privately before that the Japs must have suffered a defeat on the overseas battlefield, so they pushed hard for a large-scale cleanup in order to draw out a large number of troops to maintain the overseas supply lines.

But now the international situation has changed suddenly, and the situation may be even more serious than the commander had speculated!

"But what does this have to do with Commander Yan?" Wang Ke frowned slightly, feeling more and more confused.

"It has nothing to do with him, but it has something to do with us."

"With us?"

"Yes! With the great victory at Luohuangpo, Kazuo Shinozuka's ambition has been completely shattered. The Japanese will definitely take corresponding measures and mobilize more troops!" Qin Feng said solemnly.

"Hiss! Commander, you mean, it won't be the north!" Wang Ke reacted suddenly and his face turned pale.

"Yeah!" Qin Feng nodded.

The mind of this Minister of Ordnance who also serves as Chief of Staff is still very flexible. As long as Japan does not change its large-scale strategy, the Japs have only this option.

"Captain, is this really possible?" Wang Ke could no longer calm down.

If it is really the elite troops of the Japanese invaders that have entered the pass, with a mechanized army of 700,000, who in the entire Xia Kingdom can stop them?

Not to mention that the other side is a force with powerful firepower from the navy, army and air force!

"There's not much suspense left, which is why Commander Yan compromised with me."

Qin Feng's expression remained the same, but his tone afterwards made people shudder.

"Because the Independent Brigade has decided to go north!"

"So he will definitely agree to my request unconditionally!" Qin Feng said firmly.

If the Kwantung Army enters the pass, it will be a devastating catastrophe for the entire Xia Kingdom!

The Second War Zone is closest to the outside of the Great Wall and will inevitably bear the brunt of the attack. The only independent brigade that has the ability to buy time for the Xia Kingdom is his.

Once you retreat, or preserve your strength to avoid fighting, no one can take this responsibility!

In other words, Qin Feng's reputation is now at its peak, and no one except himself has the confidence to confront the Kwantung Army!

Another reason is that the strength of the Independent Brigade has now been completely exposed, and coupled with the great victory in the Taiyuan Campaign, the entire Xia Kingdom is paying close attention to the Independent Brigade.

That person is not stupid. If he wants to check and balance, this is his only option.

"The independent brigade is heading north?" Wang Ke was stunned.

"Commander! This can't be a joke! That's 700,000 troops!"

Wang Ke's little face turned pale in an instant.

With 700,000 mechanized troops, even if all the units of their independent brigade were added together, the scale is still far behind!

Seeing this situation, Qin Feng also looked helpless.

The war hasn't even started yet and my second-in-command is already afraid. How can I carry out micro-management?

"actually......"

Just when Qin Feng was about to prepare Wang Ke mentally.

suddenly!

"Report to the brigade commander!" The voice of Wei Dayong, who was in charge of security, suddenly sounded from outside.

Then, the monk appeared at the command center.

"That... Captain!" Wei Dayong hesitated for a moment, "Outside, there are two people outside!"

"Just say it!" Qin Feng frowned slightly. Why was this monk hesitating?

Wei Dayong scratched his head and said, "It's like this, Brigade Commander. The one leading the group claims to be our division commander."

"But I've never heard of such a person at the head of our brigade, so I just arrested them."

"Captain, can I do it?"

As soon as these words were spoken, Wang Ke's expression on the side suddenly became extremely interesting.
