Bright Sword: Construction starts from southeastern Shanxi

Zhou Xi looked at Zeng Jiwen, and suddenly realized something.

"Lao Zeng, do you have any ideas?"

Zeng Jiwen nodded after hearing what the political commissar said.

"Some ideas."

Zeng Jiwen said to Zhou Shi.

Without this telegram, according to the operations in the south in the original time and space, in order to prevent the Eighth Route Army in North China from becoming too powerful, the south specially established the Hebei-Chahar Guerrilla War Zone.

If Zeng Jiwen guessed correctly, then the person sent by the government was probably Lu Zhonglin again.

He was accompanied by Pang Bingxun and Shi Yousan.

Zeng Jiwen has been thinking about the post-war situation these days. If nothing unexpected happens, these three guys will start creating friction with the Eighth Route Army as soon as they arrive.

At the same time, after this year is over, Yan Laoxi will probably become restless.

According to intelligence from southwest Shanxi, Yan Laoxi began to organize weapons and supplies to the south after he recovered most of southwest Shanxi. After just over a month, the army of 20,000 to 30,000 people was expanded by two times.

At this rate, I'm afraid that by next year, when Lao Xi has recovered most of his strength, it will be time for him to break off relations with the Eighth Route Army.

Although the Japanese army in North China was severely damaged this time, according to the current reports from the troops, the troops in southern Hebei and south of Taiyuan still suffered heavy casualties.

At the same time, this time the entire military region's ammunition reserves were basically used up. If Shijiazhuang had not been recaptured and the logistical supplies of the Japanese army in North China had not been seized, Zeng Jiwen would have had no way to deal with it if the Japanese army in North China had gone crazy and rushed towards Tainan regardless of everything.

After thinking for a while, Zeng Jiwen did not elaborate, but just explained to Zhou Shi.

"We can discuss this after the war is completely over. Even if the southerners want to come now, I don't think any of their troops would dare to come to North China."

Suddenly, Zeng Jiwen remembered something and said to Zhou Shi.

"Send a telegram home later and tell them that I, Zeng Jiwen, sincerely invite the National Army to come to North China, and that both armies will fight the Japanese with all their might."

"Tell the South this news!"

"We must carefully select a troop from the south!"

Hearing Zeng Jiwen's two completely opposite words, Zhou Shi immediately laughed.

"Lao Zeng, it would be better if you didn't say that. Now that they know you said that, who would dare to come over?"

Zhou Xi was very clear about the nature of the people in the south. Zeng Jiwen had already said this. If any foolish army really came over, it would be a lot of fun.

Zeng Jiwen smiled and said nothing. If the south really sent troops over, Zeng Jiwen would have to give this army a high hat.

When it comes to creating friction, he is the only one who gets the upper hand by squeezing others, and then it is always others' turn to squeeze him.

At the same time, the Jin-Cha-Ji Military Region Headquarters in Baoding.

Commander Xu looked at the map on the table with a thoughtful look.

Now part of the main force of the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Army and the Tainan Military Region have launched an encirclement and annihilation campaign against the 110th Division in the encirclement. Troops outside Zhangjiakou and Datong have also been lurking.

He doesn't have to worry about Datong. In addition to the troops from Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei, the battle against Datong is mainly commanded by Commander He from northwest Shanxi.

Now, their military region's attention is focused on Zhangjiakou.

The main force attacking Zhangjiakou this time was the Hebei-Rehe-Chahar Advance Army of nearly 30,000 people.

During the previous counter-mopping-up operation, this part of the troops had been left behind by Division Commander Xu as a reserve force.

Originally, Division Commander Xu wanted to transfer three regiments of troops as the general reserve, but the guerrilla army and the main forces of the Third Division were all on the Baiyangdian front line to block the Japanese army because the 21st Division moved south, so Division Commander Xu did not transfer the remaining troops.

Especially the First Division, the main force is now encircling the Fourth Independent Mixed Brigade in Yun County.

Commander Yang sent a telegram not long ago saying that they had already entered Yu County and would soon be able to wipe out all the remaining Japanese troops in this brigade.
