Xie Tian did not expect that Xu Shiyou would arrive at this time and went out to greet him personally.
When Xu Shiyou saw Xie Tian's tunnel network, he naturally visited it with great interest and asked about it. He already understood Xie Tian's confidence in challenging Neji Okamura.
"Ningji Okamura is not an ordinary Japanese. The three-guang policy he implemented has caused devastating damage to us, especially the military and civilians in North China. Baoqing, you can't underestimate the enemy. Neji Okamura will do anything. Gotta come out.”
Xie Tian nodded. Naturally, he would not underestimate the enemy, especially when facing Neji Okamura. However, for a person from the future like him, the methods used by the Japs during World War II were just that. After the war, it had already been It has been thoroughly studied by people and there is no secret at all.
Entering the underground headquarters, Wu Wenhua and others who were busy came up to greet Xu Shiyou, and Xie Tian introduced Pang Yuan to Xu Shiyou.
Xu Shiyou felt a sudden change in his heart and shook hands with Pang Yuan.
Xie Baoqing indeed invited Pang Yuan here. Although Xu Shiyou had never dealt with Pang Yuan, he had admired his name for a long time.
Could it be that Xie Baoqing really has great ambitions and refuses to take sides?
Xie Tian didn't know that Xu Shiyou had psychological fluctuations. In fact, his ambition was very simple, but it was difficult to tell others.
Xie Tian made an invitation gesture to Xu Shiyou: "Brother Xu, please come this way."
Xu Shiyou hummed, and when he saw Tang Haoer who was busy at the telephone exchange, he turned to Xie Tian and said: "I have arranged for people to escort those people you asked me to help escort. The superior leader specifically told me that those few people must be safely escorted away." We will personally escort you to your destination, and there will be dedicated comrades in charge along the way, so you can rest assured.”
Xie Tian smiled: "Then I would like to thank Brigadier Xu and all the leaders."
Now sending Tang Jingyao and his wife away is already a private matter for Xie Tian, and it is also an explanation for Tang Haoer. What happens next has nothing to do with the story we are about to tell, so it comes to an end.
Xu Shiyou walked to the sand table at Xie Tian's invitation. After seeing the sand table clearly, Xu Shiyou looked at Xie Tian in shock and asked, "Are you the sand table for the entire North China region?"
The size of the sand table is the size of the strategic pattern.
The sand table in the 386 Brigade Headquarters was just the sand table in northwest Shanxi, but the sand table here in Xie Tian turned out to be the sand table in the entire North China region. Xu Shiyou began to believe what Brigadier Chen said.
Xie Tian looked at Xu Shiyou and nodded: "Resisting Japan and saving the nation is a matter for the whole nation, and one move affects the whole body. Neiji Okamura is the commander-in-chief of the North China Front of the Japanese invading army. If he takes any action, it will definitely lead to the linkage of the entire North China region. , only by seeing through his strategic intentions can we be well-targeted and make targeted combat plans."
Xu Shiyou nodded cautiously: "You are right, what do you think Neji Okamura should do next?"
Xie Tian smiled: "Before Brother Xu came, the Japs came and dropped a few bombs. I think Okamura Neji just told me in this way that he accepted my challenge..."
Xu Shiyou interrupted Xie Tian: "Wait a minute, I don't quite understand, what kind of a gauntlet?"
Xie Tian smiled bitterly: "It seems that I have to brag again. If I don't explain this matter thoroughly, you won't understand, brother."
Xie Tian had no choice but to recount the morning's encounter with Okamura Neji from beginning to end, without exaggerating or concealing anything.
Hearing that Xie Tian hit Gangmura Ningji with a pistol, Xu Shiyou couldn't help grabbing Xie Tian's arm and laughed: "Well done, that old guy's head was broken and bloody. This thing is enough for me to laugh for the rest of my life." Now, do you have wine? I have to offer you a bowl."
Xie Tian laughed and said, "Brother Xu is reminding me of my poor hospitality. You haven't even had lunch yet, right?"
"Nonsense, I went to Dagu Town non-stop, and then rushed here from Dagu Town. I didn't have time to eat." Xu Shiyou stared.
Xie Tian hurriedly confessed and ordered people to prepare meals for Xu Shiyou and his guards.
Xu Shiyou looked at Xie Tian and asked, "Baoqing, is there anything we need the Eighth Route Army to cooperate with in this battle?"
Xie Tian was not polite to Xu Shiyou and replied: "I wrote a letter to Li Yunlong. He must have received it by now. If he can help me hold off the Nakamura Division, he can buy me some time. Now I am most in need What we have is food, I wonder if Brother Xu can give us some support?"
A look of embarrassment flashed across Xu Shiyou's face. He nodded and looked at Xie Tian and said, "I'll find a way, but I can only do my best."
Now is the season of late winter and early spring. This season is also the season when food is most scarce. Not to mention the Eighth Route Army, even the National Army and the Japanese Army are facing food shortages. If there is no war, everyone can at least make ends meet. Nowadays, wars are raging and large areas of cultivated land are deserted, so food has naturally become the most in-demand material.
Xie Tian also knew that Xu Shiyou was in trouble, so he nodded and said a few words of gratitude.
Regarding food, we can only do our best. Everyone is short of food. Xie Tian's troops are pretty good. They have won several great victories and seized some food from the Japanese. There are also Japanese cans to eat. In the eyes of other troops, It’s already a happy little life.
The saying that the landlord did not store grain at home was just a joke in later generations, but it was a reality in this era.
Of course, big landowners like Gao Kuirong are an exception.
But Gao Kuirong is still reluctant to eat or drink. He still complains about his wife for half a month even if she scrambles eggs.
Xu Shiyou looked at Xie Tian and asked, "How are you going to fight this battle?"
Xie Tian pointed at Taiyuan on the sand table and said: "It depends on how he plans to fight. From the overall situation, the initiative is in his hands. Unfortunately, I am soft-spoken. If I were Yan Laoxi, I would definitely fight with him Fight for the initiative on the battlefield. The Nakamura Division has been wasted by the 115th Division of the Eighth Route Army for so long, and it is already at the end of its war effort. If Yan Laoxi mobilizes the neighboring Wei Lihuang Corps at this time to give the Nakamura Division a final blow, it is very likely that The Nakamura Division will be eliminated in an organic manner, and Neji Okamura's strategic plan will definitely be disrupted. If there is no threat from the Nakamura Division, he can only mobilize the Kameda Brigade in Yanmen Pass or the Japanese in Taiyuan. He came to attack Zhangzhuang. If he deploys his troops like this, we can..."
Xie Tian also said this to Xu Lixin, and now he said it to Xu Shiyou again, just to put pressure on Yan Xishan with the help of various forces.
If Yan Xishan can really be mobilized, it will naturally be the best strategy.
Annihilating a Japanese division was a unique event in the history of China's Anti-Japanese War, and it was exciting to think about it.
However, even if Yan Xishan cannot be mobilized, Xie Tian has prepared Li Yunlong's troops. At least Li Yunlong can help him hold off the Nakamura Division for a few days.
Now that Xu Shiyou took the initiative to deliver it to his door, how could Xie Tian not give Xu Shiyou a big gift.
