Rebirth from the Ashes: Rebuilding the Red Soviet Area

Thinking of this, Liu Ming couldn't help but feel curious

He asked, "Little brother, what should I call you?"

Li Yan smiled slightly and replied, "My last name is Li Yan."

Hearing this name, Liu Ming's heart was shocked.

He stood up suddenly, pointed at Li Yan, and said in astonishment, "Could it be that you are General Li Yan of the Red 24th Division who turned Fujian upside down?"

Faced with Liu Ming's surprise, Li Yan just nodded with a smile.

At this moment, Liu Ming's heart was like a raging storm, and he couldn't calm down for a long time.

He was originally just curious about the young man in front of him, but when he learned that the other party was the famous Li Yan

Does he know what Li Yan did in Fujian?

During the fall of the Soviet area, with a dozen people, they broke through the encirclement of the 100,000-strong army of the National Army.

Not only did they capture the 83rd Division alive, but they also severely damaged the 36th and 88th Divisions of the Nationalist Army and Chen's 18th Army.

Thus, a base was re-established in Jiangxi and Fujian.

In addition, he made a big fuss in Nanchang Camp and helped the 19th Army to build

That thing is not earth-shattering

After a long while, Liu Ming finally calmed down a little and said in an extremely respectful tone, "It's Commander Li in person! I've heard a lot about you!"

Then, Liu Ming sighed deeply.

He sighed, "Our Northwest Army is so wronged!"

"Thinking back then, how glorious the Northwest Army was"

"After the defeat in the Central Plains War, General Feng was forced to step down."

"For a moment, the entire Northwest Army was leaderless and fell into chaos."

"In such a difficult situation, the Northwest Army had no choice but to begin a long and arduous thousand-mile retreat."

"The Kuomintang army was hotly pursuing us from behind, and militias and the Red Spear Society were setting up checkpoints in front of us."

"What's worse is that due to the long period of escape, the soldiers were already hungry, cold and exhausted."

"Under such dire circumstances, the once mighty Northwest Army has now become a disorganized, demoralized, and homeless dog."

"That is the eternal pain in the hearts of the Northwest Army"

"Fortunately, we were led by General Song and Mr. Xiao."

"Deserted to the Northeast Army"

“This is a chance to breathe.”

"But then the September 18 Incident happened and the Northeast Army changed its flag."

"The Northwest Army once again became a lonely ghost"

"We have to face the invasion of the Japanese army"

"We also have to worry about the fear of the national army."

......

Liu Ming calmed down and continued, "People outside say that the Northwest Army is a big warlord."

"For personal gain"

“We did a lot of things that were costly and laborious.”

"But the Northwest Army once contributed to the rise of China."

"Not hesitating to sacrifice countless men of Northwest China"

"Oppose the monarchy, fight against Zhang Xun, overturn bribery, revolutionize the capital, take the oath in Wuyuan, and participate in the Northern Expedition"

Facing the Japanese invasion

"We, the Northwest Army, are by no means cowards"

"Even if we have to fight against the Japanese and die on the battlefield, we will never retreat!"

"Even in the battle of Xifengkou, the "Big Knife Team" intimidated the enemy."

Speaking of this, Liu Ming felt a little sad.

Calmed down the mood

Liu Ming continued: "I have said so much"

"I just want to say"

"Even if the Northwest Army has moral flaws"

“But sin does not lead to death”

"Today, in front of you, Master Li, I will no longer speak those empty words and lies."

"I, Liu Ming, have selfish motives"

"After the July 7 Incident, Pingjin fell"

"The 29th Army exists in name only"

“The reason why I hesitated”

"I just want to save some seeds for the Northwest Army"

"I know that General Li is in that situation in southern Fujian."

“Can still rise”

"This shows that General Li's command ability is extraordinary."

"Sending troops to fight against Japan is no problem"

"I hope General Li can lend a helping hand to the Northwest Army"

"As long as the Northwest Army can escape this disaster"

"I, Liu Ming, swear again"

"We will definitely follow the GCD's lead in the future"

Liu Ming bowed deeply to Li Yan.

Li Yan listened quietly to Liu Ming's words

There are complaints, resentment, and regret.

I can't help but feel some emotion in my heart

Whether it's the Northwest Army, the Northeast Army, or those local warlords

Although selfish

But they did not lose sight of national justice in times of national crisis.

Thought of here

Li Yan nodded and said, "General Liu"

"I'm willing to lend you a hand"

"As for the future"

......

The Zhangbei Mongolian Army Headquarters was bustling with people.

Red lanterns are hung everywhere, and colorful ribbons are fluttering in the wind.

The entire headquarters was decorated with liveliness and joy.

At this time, a middle-aged man with a burly figure and dressed in gorgeous Mongolian clothes strode in.

His face was beaming, and his hearty laugh echoed throughout the headquarters: "Hahahahahahaha... Chief Tanaka, Deputy Commander Liu! You actually arranged such a grand ceremony, you are really very polite!"

Tanaka greeted him with a smile, bowed slightly, and said, "Your Highness, Prince De, you are very kind. You are our most respected and close partner of the Imperial Japanese Army! The war in Zhangbei is now tense and the situation is serious. You personally led the army to support Zhangbei today. You have traveled all the way and worked hard. It is really hard for you! So this small arrangement is exactly what we should do."

Seeing this, Liu Xin on the side also hurriedly took a step forward.

With a flattering smile on his face, he echoed, "That's right, Chief Tanaka is absolutely right! The fact that Commander-in-Chief Prince De is personally visiting Zhangbei is truly a shot in the arm for the common people and soldiers here! It's sure to boost everyone's morale!"

"Come on, come on, let's stop standing and talking. Please take a seat. Let's eat and talk, and discuss the next battle plan." As he said this, he extended his hand as an invitation, inviting the King of De to take his seat.

King De didn't care that this was a Hongmen Banquet

Sitting firmly in the first seat.

Whether it is the brutal and cunning Japanese or the powerful national army, as long as they want to develop peacefully in this vast Chahar region

He absolutely cannot avoid himself, a native Mongolian - Prince De!

After all, this is the area under his jurisdiction, and he represents millions of Mongolian people.

Therefore, no matter who it is, if they want to do something here, they must first obtain their consent and support.

Originally, Tian Xin still had a glimmer of hope for King De.

Prepare to give King De another chance at the banquet

However, when he witnessed the arrogant and conceited look of Prince De, he couldn't help but feel an irrepressible anger and disappointment in his heart.

"Humph! With Prince De's arrogant and domineering temperament, even if our elite divisions of the Great Japanese Empire successfully occupied the Chahar region, I'm afraid he might not willingly submit to us!"

Thinking of this, Tanaka's eyes were firm, and he quietly gave Liu Xin beside him a meaningful look.
