Pingcheng.
"I don't agree!" Li Yunlong shouted in a loud voice. "Why should we give Chu Yunfei a county seat? This was conquered by us with blood and sacrifice. What's the point of giving him Chu Yunfei?"
When Gao Jianwu proposed to hand over Pingcheng to Chu Yunfei, Li Yunlong exploded.
With his nature of protecting food, Chu Yunfei, let alone Chu Yunfei, would be a little heartbroken even if he handed over the county seat of Ping County to the brigade commander.
And in Li Yunlong's opinion, now is the best time to drive the 358th Regiment out of their base area. In this case, only their own people will be left in the entire Ping An base area, and it will be easier to manage.
Now the 358th Regiment is entrenched in the Ping'an base area, just like a fishbone, and Li Yunlong is always uncomfortable.
"Lao Li, don't worry, let's listen to what Lao Gao has to say before we talk." Zhao Gang stood up and smoothed things over.
Zhao Gang has been dealing with Gao Jianwu for some time. He knows that many of Gao Jianwu's ideas are based on his own considerations and are not just settled after a sudden fever.
】
Gao Jianwu smiled and continued Zhao Gang's words, "Commander, don't worry. Look at Pingcheng's current position. It's stuck in the gap between our safe base and the Japs. If it's our people who come to defend, look at it. How many people do we need to put in here to feel safe?”
Before Li Yunlong could answer, Gao Jianwu answered it himself.
"We must at least deploy three or more security regiments. Look at how much it cost the three main regiments in the third division to block the Japs' attack, and how much force they lost to defend this place."
"If we let Chu Yunfei guard here, then we can put this part of the force elsewhere.
Although our army is developing rapidly now, we now have a lot of territory and need to be defended everywhere. If we use this part of our strength in other places, we will have more opportunities.
Pingcheng has no room for development due to the squeeze from both sides. In this narrow gap, Chu Yunfei has no space or opportunity to expand his territory. This is one of the reasons. "
"Second, have you noticed that Chu Yunfei's attitude towards our army has changed a lot. In my opinion, this is our best chance to win over him, as long as they camp next to our territory , then we have the opportunity to contact them, influence them and ultimately win over them.
Chu Yunfei is a real general. I think everyone knows that the 358th Regiment under his control is also the main force of the Jinsui Army. Our current development situation requires more generals. Further recover more places, especially talents like Chu Yunfei who have undergone formal military training.
This is what I think, let’s give him Pingcheng County first. After he stays here permanently, he will face the huge pressure from the two divisions of the Little Devils.
In this way, his regiment will definitely be unable to support itself, so it must cooperate with us to fight.
And we need to provide some resources in terms of food, weapons and ammunition to allow him to keep Pingcheng. These were all pressures on us before, but now they have all been transferred to him.
In this case, we will slowly have the opportunity to infiltrate his troops. Even gradually assisted him in making some changes in the army. For example, we will transform the weapon configuration of grassroots troops according to our safe cluster model.
After a series of transformations, we gradually incorporated the 358th Regiment into our safe combat system.
As long as they continue to have contact and communication with us, then we will spread our ideas to them, affecting their lower levels and ultimately their middle and upper levels.
Although it is not possible to achieve immediate results, it will eventually bring this powerful resistance force to our side to fight the Japanese. At least we will remain comrades until the Japanese are driven out of the land of China. "
What Gao Jianwu planned made everyone fall into silence again.
Li Yunlong thought for a while and then spoke.
"Chu Yunfei is a good fighter. His 358th Regiment is well-equipped and well-staffed, with a total of 5,000 people. I was so envious of me, Lao Li, at the beginning. If we can bring him to our side, then of course It’s a great thing. But there are too many constraints and controls on him in the second war zone. Can we get through this wishful thinking?”
"After all, we have to give it a try before we give up. Pure soldiers like Chu Yunfei are actually rare in the national military system, and they are incompatible with other generals who are simply eating nothing. As long as we persevere and influence them with the feelings of family and country and national justice, , I think there are some opportunities after all.”
Gao Jianwu was actually not completely sure about winning over Chu Yunfei, but with such a talented general by his side, Gao Jianwu always felt a little resentful if he didn't give it a try.
Moreover, Pingcheng was handed over to Chu Yunfei's 358th Regiment garrison, and only the defense was handed over to him.
This does not mean that all management of Pingcheng will be transferred.
Gao Jianwu will still hold the local grassroots management and the overall situation of factories, commerce, transportation and development firmly in his hands.
It's just that Gao Jianwu will provide certain material resources from the local development income to enhance the strength of Chu Yunfei's 358th Regiment.
After all, with the current strategic scale planned by Gao Jianwu, if the 358th Regiment does not significantly improve its military strength under the new situation, then Chu Yunfei will not be able to play a big role soon.
Speaking of which, this is also a double-edged sword. If Chu Yunfei still can't win over, then Gao Jianwu's approach actually feels like feeding a tiger into trouble.
However, after a small trial in Yangcheng, Gao Jianwu was fully sure of the direction of his military reform. With the current military strength of the Ping An Group, the 358th Regiment could not make waves under his eyes no matter what. If something really happened, it would change hands. It will be destroyed.
The most powerful artillery battalion, Gao Jianwu will not strengthen the 358th Regiment.
And if he wanted greater support from Gao Jianwu, then Chu Yunfei would have to give up a lot of things to allow Gao Jianwu to penetrate his army more deeply. You must know that the hard-working ideological reform team is now the strongest hidden front team in Gao Jianwu's hands.
Even the puppet army can be quickly transformed into the people's army. For the lower-level soldiers of the 358th Regiment, they have a relatively more concept of family and country and are easier to win over.
It's just that Gao Jianwu hasn't fully expressed this set of punches yet. It goes without saying that some things have strong persuasive power as long as they are effective.
After some explanations, everyone had a new understanding of Gao Jianwu's thinking. Shen Quan looked at Gao Jianwu with a bit of danger in his eyes.
If you are dealing with Gao Jianwu, if you are one of your own, there is nothing to say, it is all benefits.
But for opponents, if you don't have dozens of smart minds, don't even think about taking advantage!
The opinions of the top leaders of the Ping An Cluster were unified, and the proposal of the 358th Regiment to be stationed in Pingcheng was quickly approved. Although this was a decision with a great impact, and even had an impact on the relationship between the Eighth Route Army and the Shanxi-Sui Army, when Gao Jian's military commander's solution was uploaded to the headquarters, the headquarters quickly called back and simply approved with two words and it was done!
This is not to say that the headquarters has no opinions. After Gao Jianwu's plan was submitted, there were actually some arguments at the headquarters, but the boss suppressed all these arguments with one sentence. When have you ever seen Gao Jianwu suffer a loss?
After everyone thought about it, they found that so far, it has never happened once!
Every time Gao Jianwu's unexpected and earth-shattering ideas and plans yielded huge results in the end.
...
"Brother Yunfei, thanks to your department's sincere unity and joint efforts many times, we have achieved the situation we are in today. So in order to express my gratitude to Brother Yunfei for your cooperation and strong support for us.
This time, brother, I took the risk and asked my superiors to hand over Pingcheng to Brother Yunfei's 358th Regiment to garrison it.
In the future, we will share half of the profits obtained from Pingcheng with Brother Yunfei's 358th Regiment. Part of the military rations and salaries will be obtained from the development of Pingcheng for the brothers of the 358th Regiment. Of course, what you gain from the 2nd Theater is still yours. of.
How about it, brother, am I interesting? "
The plan has been decided, Li Yunlong rushed to take this good job into his own hands, but the half of the profit originally promised with the 358 Group became half and half. After all, Li Yunlong was still reluctant to give up the big fat piece of Pingcheng to the 358 Group. Too much moisture.
"Brother Yunlong, I'm not polite about that brother. On behalf of the 5,000 brothers of the 358th Regiment, Chu wants to thank you for your strong support." Chu Yunfei did not expect that before he could speak, Li Yunlong had already considered some of their demands. , even a little better than they imagined.
Chu Yunfei glanced at Fang Ligong and turned his eyes slightly, as if to say, you see, it was right to send troops before.
This time it was for a county.
Blood is earned.
Fang Ligong responded to Chu Yunfei with a wry smile.
Fang Ligong listened to the entire negotiation between Li Yunlong and Chu Yunfei, and felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't tell what was wrong.
It stands to reason that the Eighth Route Army has indeed treated them with utmost benevolence and justice. Fang Ligong compared his feelings with his own. If it were him, he wouldn't be able to do what he is doing now.
After all, providing money, food, weapons and ammunition are all real money.
It is completely different from the principal's verbal commendations and various medals.
In Fang Ligong's view, his 358th Regiment even seemed to enjoy the treatment of the other party's main force on the Eighth Route Army.
This was what puzzled him. But even if the Eighth Route Army really hid some evil intentions, they would have to follow the opponent's routine because the conditions are so good.
There is absolutely no room for rejection!
Where can they find such a good thing?
Not to mention anyone else, not even Chief Yan can do it now!
