Regarding the matter of the Third Army of Shandong Province, Li Shaoyi thought that the other party was just making a simple provocation, so he called the Jinling Military and Political Department, hoping that they could contact the Third Army. We are stationed in Qingdao, which was also discussed with Jinling. Moreover, Qingdao was not the territory of the Third Army before, so there is no need to look at it now. We are jealous here. We can have what we have today. In addition to the soldiers' hard work, we also invested here.

In the past, Qingdao's industrial zone was among the best in the country. After Li Shaoyi took over, he purchased a large number of industrial equipment from various countries and hired many skilled workers. This is why it has developed vigorously today. The Third Army probably took a fancy to this and wanted to get a piece of the pie here.

But don't you see, are we, the 72nd Army, so easy to talk to? You haven't invested anything, just sent two infantry regiments to take a look around, and you expect to collect taxes on our territory. Not to mention that you are a local warlord, even the central army doesn't have such rules.

After receiving Li Shaoyi's call, the people from the Military and Political Department immediately contacted the people from the Third Army. Just as Li Shaoyi had expected, these people did not dare to confront the people from the 72nd Army head-on. After all, the 72nd Army was known for its reputation as a tiger, and even the Russians and Japanese were defeated by them. How could a ragtag army like you do that?

To put it bluntly, you're still thinking of taking a piece of his territory. Don't you know the 72nd Army's expansion capabilities? If they target you, they might even occupy your territory. Now that they're here to eat your meat, it's already quite a favor to you. Don't provoke them.

If it were someone else, with the threat from the Jinling Military and Political Department, and considering some of the previous events of the 72nd Army, they would probably have put down their anger.

After all, this is someone we can't afford to offend. While the conflict between the two sides is not overt, we can find a middleman to talk to them, and then the matter will be over.

But Commander Han, who was in a provincial capital, didn't know what was wrong with him recently. He didn't pay any attention to the persuasion of the Jinling Military and Political Department. Instead, he told the Jinling side that Qingdao was also part of Ludong Province, and as the chairman of Ludong Province, he had to take care of what he should take care of.

So the provincial government issued an order, asking the 72nd Army to demolish the Dengzhou Airport on the north side of the Shandong Peninsula.

Dengzhou was no longer part of Qingdao. It was located north of Qingdao, across the sea from the Liaodong Peninsula. At that time, this area belonged to another small warlord.

After Ma Leizi arrived, he knew that an air raid on Liaodong was going to be carried out. If the plane took off from Qingdao, the range and bomb load would be shorter, but if it took off from Dengzhou, the situation would be completely different. So he discussed with the small warlord at that time to build an airport on his territory and send a security group to protect it.

After receiving 3,000 Type 38 rifles from Ma Leizi, that guy agreed with full satisfaction. However, he was captured by the Third Army in the subsequent internal strife, so now the place belongs to the Third Army's territory.

After being scolded by the people from the Military and Political Department, Commander Han fiddled with the map for a long time, trying to do something in Qingdao. He knew that he did not have the ability to do so. No matter in terms of military or economic power, he could not be a match for the 72nd Army. But Dengzhou Airport is no longer in your Qingdao. It is under my rule. If I tell you to demolish it, you have to demolish it.

What's more, the small warlord who signed the agreement with you before is now in the provincial capital's prison, so the agreement he signed is no longer valid.

Li Shaoyi was woken up in his sleep. He had been in Southeast Asia for such a long time and was busy in Pujiang for so many days. After returning to the base camp in Qingdao, he was about to have a good rest for a while, but who knew that he was woken up in his sleep.

"It's an emergency, it's really an emergency!"

When Ma Leizi saw Li Shaoyi waking up with a bad look in his eyes, he remembered his elder brother's bad temper when he woke up in the past. He had been beaten many times in the past, so he quickly raised the documents in his hand.

"Dengzhou Airport is surrounded by the 122nd Brigade."

The telegram was summarized in this sentence. Li Shaoyi didn't quite understand it. After all, he had just woken up and there were many things he didn't understand.

"Dengzhou Airport was built for airstrikes in the Northeast. It's not located on our territory. It's about 200 kilometers to the north of us, and that's already within the territory of Dengzhou Prefecture..."

Ma Leizi knew that Li Shaoyi couldn't figure it out, so he gave a brief description. The 122nd Brigade was Commander Han's army stationed in Dengzhou. There were about 7,000 people in total. They had experienced several civil wars in the country, and their weapons and equipment were considered good among the miscellaneous troops.

After hearing Ma Leizi's introduction, Li Shaoyi snorted coldly. In order to save everyone's face, I didn't use force against you, but asked Jinling for favors. When I called you, you didn't say anything. Now you're playing this on me?

"Apart from the 122nd Brigade, are there any other troops of theirs around?"

Li Shaoyi put on his pajamas. After hearing this, Ma Leizi immediately became excited. In the past, when facing the provocation of the surrounding army, we all remembered what the eldest brother said. We are all sons and daughters of China. We may fight side by side on the battlefield in the future, so we should endure it for now. But now, without saying a word, you directly surrounded our airport. You are really having fun.

This is not a single airport. Including the aircraft and various fuel and ammunition reserves inside, the total value exceeds 10 or 20 million oceans. Can you surround it just because you want to?

"Reporting to the Marshal, the 122nd Brigade is stationed in Dengzhou. In addition to their infantry brigade, there are three security regiments in the entire Dengzhou territory, but most of them are not fully staffed, with only a few hundred people. The rest are police officers with more than 400 people. The nearest armed force is stationed in Weicheng. It is the 83rd Infantry Division, which is considered the elite of the Han family."

Ma Leizi has a pretty good understanding of the surrounding situation. If anyone dares to challenge us, don't blame us for fighting back.

After washing his face with cold water, Li Shaoyi calmed down a little. When he opened his eyes on the bed just now, he really wanted to let Ma Leizi beat him up. With my current strength, I don't need to endure this kind of bullshit.

But thinking about the fact that the Anti-Japanese War was about to break out, any soldier might become part of the war, so he had to endure it. He pointed to the phone in the distance and asked Wang Manli to bring it to him.
