Seeing Xie Tian wink at him, Pang Yuan smiled.
This bandit has set his sights on the nine fighter jets coming from the Flying Tigers.
Perhaps the recovery of Pingjin was just an excuse for him to ask Director He for these nine fighter jets.
Pang Yuan did not dare to think that troops would leave Shanxi so soon, and the manpower, material and financial resources were not enough to support the People's Liberation Army to take such a big action.
Attacking Pingxingguan, Niangziguan, and Yangquan is already the ultimate challenge for material supply in the liberated areas. The next time such a large-scale campaign is launched, it will have to wait at least until after the autumn harvest. This means it is already winter. .
This was no one else. He was indeed a bandit. He was even thinking about the escort plane.
At this time, Director He who was in front of the window finally turned around and walked back, stared at Xie Tian and said: "Apart from these nine aircraft, what other support do you need?"
"ah?"
Before Xie Tian made any move, Pang Yuan opened his mouth in surprise.
What does Mr. He mean by this?
Could it be that Commander-in-Chief He has agreed to hand over these nine Flying Tigers aircraft to us?
It was as if ten thousand little bees had burrowed into Pang Yuan's head. He couldn't see anything else, only the buzzing.
Xie Tian stood up and looked directly at Mr. He. He reached out and took out a piece of paper from his coat pocket and handed it to Mr. He with both hands.
Both Mr. He and Pang Yuan have a dark streak. This boy has been prepared for this.
How was he sure that Chief He would agree to his request?
Mr. He took the piece of paper and only glanced at it for a few times. The muscles on his face were twitching uncontrollably.
As expected, it was Xie Baoqing who was able to force the old man to eat only two meals a day, so he learned a lesson.
Pang Yuan couldn't help but leaned over to look at the piece of paper in Mr. He's hand. After reading a few lines, he became uneasy.
Amitabha, I don’t know about this, I’m not involved, I really am not involved.
Director He controlled the urge to kick Xie Tian into the Pacific Ocean. He gritted his molar teeth and said, "I have to report this to the Chairman, and these supplies won't be raised in three or two months. Xie Baoqing, suppose I give With these supplies, how do you plan to fight this war?"
Xie Tianyixiao stretched out his hand and made a gesture of invitation to Mr. He: "Mr. He, please sit down."
Director He sat down and stared at Xie Tian. His decision to support Xie Tian in attacking Pingjin just now was a difficult choice.
The Republic of China government was pressed hard by the Japanese step by step. From Nanjing to Wuhan, and from Wuhan to Chongqing, it not only lost face, but also had no retreat.
Supporting Xie Baoqing to fight Pingjin, no matter what the outcome of the battle, can represent that the Republic of China government is working hard to fight and contain some Japanese troops for the Allies.
To put it bluntly, even if Xie Baoqing's 10th Theater was destroyed, it would not have much impact on the great cause of the Anti-Japanese War formulated by the Republic of China government. After all, the Chongqing government had never included Xie Baoqing's troops in the Nationalist government's battle order in a real sense. The 10th War Zone and the 41st Group Army were basically temporarily added. Only by giving him a title can he openly attribute his series of achievements to the name of the National Government.
Of course, these words can only be understood but not expressed in words. Neither Jiang nor He would ever say them.
However, what if Xie Baoqing and his 10th War Zone can severely damage the Japanese army in the Pingjin area, and even regain Pingjin as they wish.
Then the National Government would make a lot of money.
Perhaps we can take advantage of the situation to push China's battlefield situation back to the situation before 1937 and regain half of the country.
This process may take three years, five years, or longer, but after all, it is developing in a good direction.
Isn't Okamura Neiji promoting peace talks with us in Tokyo? Let Xie Baoqing give him a beating, which can shake the confidence of Japan's die-hards and advance the peace talks process to a certain extent.
It's just that Xie Baoqing is so fucking open-minded. Do you want the old man to have two meals a day instead of steamed cornstarch and pickles?
What happened to the steamed cornbread pickles?
At least you can still be alive.
Xie Tian reached out and took out a bound document from the leather bag he brought with him. He put it in front of General He with both hands and said in a deep voice: "This is the plan for the Ping-Tianjin campaign I made. Please take a look at it, General He."
Pang Yuan glanced at Xie Tian again, looked at the thick volume of battle plans, and sighed lightly.
He makes decisions first and then acts. Sometimes it seems that he acts impulsively, but he has already made his own plans in terms of grand strategy.
I don't know that he spent several sleepless nights to obtain such a thick combat plan.
Pang Yuan suddenly felt sorry for Xie Tian. Compared with Xie Tian, he seemed to be living too comfortably.
Director He glanced at Xie Tian, reached into his pocket, took out his reading glasses, put them on, and picked up the Ping-Tianjin battle plan, but his mood gradually began to calm down.
This plan cannot be completed in a day or two. It seems that I still underestimated Xie Baoqing.
Until noon, Director He was still discussing the battle plan with Xie Tian. Xie Tian Congshan Ruliu also made some modifications to the battle plan. After all, his battle plan had no intention of playing Yan Xishan's cards. But it's different when Mr. He is involved.
If this combat plan is passed by the military committee, Yan Xishan's second theater must be implemented according to the plan. This will at least be able to contain the Japanese reinforcements in the direction of Zhangjiakou for Xie Tian, which will greatly relieve Xie Tian's combat pressure.
Pang Yuan raised his wrist, glanced at his watch, and reminded: "Brother Jing, it's lunch time. I've prepared a welcoming banquet for the Allied inspection team. It's not good for us to be late."
Only then did Mr. He come out of his state. He stared blankly at Xie Tian as he pushed the battle plan to Xie Tian. He patted it and said, "You will find a chance to show this battle plan to Stilwell later." General, look."
Xie Tian smiled and pushed the battle plan back to Director He, took out another copy from his bag and said with a smile: "We won't show the revised version to Stilwell. I've prepared a backup for him here."
Director He clapped the battle plan in his hand and smiled at Xie Tian: "The one you gave me was specially formulated for me, right? Xie Baoqing, you really have a plan. I want to see if you can follow it from Stilwell pulled military aid out of his hands."
Xie Tian laughed: "Of course it would be better. We can get through it without us tightening our belts. We will fight this battle with or without military aid."
Director He took a deep breath and said, "I really don't understand why you were willing to fall into the trap and become a bandit. If you had been serving in the military in 1937, how could little Japan be so rampant?"
Xie Tian smiled bitterly: "General Manager He is so high up that the nation is weak. How can one or two people work hard to save the country?"
Director He and Pang Yuan sighed in unison. Director He picked up the battle plan and put it away solemnly. He looked at Xie Tian and said with a bitter smile: "I have a hunch that if you were here back then, at least we wouldn't have lost so ugly. .”
Faced with such supreme admiration, Xie Tianwei could only pretend to be ashamed, but replied in his heart: If I were here back then, I would have beaten them back to the Stone Age.
