Liao Jundong and Li Lingfei quietly listened to Liao Fan's orders, only Liao Fan and Huang Changsheng could mobilize the troops of the special operations brigade, although Liao Jundong also had the right to command, but Liao Jundong had never had an in-depth understanding of the special operations brigade, and he did not dare to command rashly. Huang Changsheng disappeared, and now the only person who can be familiar with the special operations brigade is deputy brigade commander Yan Xuelin.

"I'll send a telegram to Brigade Commander Huang in a moment, asking him to leave immediately!" Li Lingfei hurriedly wrote down Liao Fan's order in his notebook.

"Also tell Zhao Caizhu that now our task is not to attack for the time being, Taiyuan City is thick with high walls, and it is too reckless to attack Taiyuan before making all preparations, let him send a signal corps to withdraw the troops, leaving half of the troops to defend the Yangquan line, and the rest of the troops will be led by Zhao Caizhu to all go east to support Jingcheng!"

In the Jingcheng area, Ma Wanzhong's division obviously has no advantage at all, so he can only passively defend and be beaten, if the little devils don't retreat, they will be beaten all the time! They can't continue to be beaten like this, otherwise the initiative on the battlefield will always be the little devils, they have to launch a counterattack, and they will be afraid of the little devils in Hebei, so they will not dare to easily attack Jingcheng.

"By the way, there is also Shen Zhengwen, the soldiers of his mine guard team have been defeated, and there are less than eighty people left with the previous wounded!"

Shen Zhengwen led the troops to turn a big circle behind the enemy, breaking through the layers of blockade of the little devils, and when they were close to the door of the house, in order to protect the people from the slaughter of the Japanese army, they fought hard with the little devils, and the strength was sharply reduced.

This time, in order to cover the retreat of Ma Wanzhong's division in Jingcheng, Shen Zhengwen led the troops to fight the little devil again, and as a result, the already small mine protection team was completely wiped out, and there were only so many people left in the wounded and those staff officers who lacked arms and legs.

This is also the first time that Shen Zhengwen has cried after coming to Taihang Mountain, not only because the mine protection team is his hard work, and he pulled it up with hard work, but also because these soldiers, they are all his Shen Zhengwen's soldiers, eating together, training together, and now Shen Zhengwen's mind is full of his shadow.

"After this battle is over, the mine protection team is arranging for someone to take over, and then form it, transfer Shen Zhengwen back first, and give him a brigade of troops to take the two of you, what do you think?" Liao Fan asked for the opinions of the two people.

With Shen Zhengwen's ability, it can be seen from these two battles that he is a qualified commander, and he is a commander with strong self-learning ability, and more importantly, Shen Zhengwen has a wealth of knowledge, and he will definitely surpass the four division commanders if he has no problems in the new 33rd Army in the future.

It is lucky that the New 33rd Army has an officer like Shen Zhengwen, of course, Liao Fan must also give him enough space for development and a good platform, otherwise no matter how good an officer is, it will be wasted in the New 33rd Army.

"I think so, but what position is a good arrangement? You can't let him be a staff officer in the military department, right? With Shen Zhengwen's ability, it's overkill! Liao Jundong thought about it, and there was no suitable position for Shen Zhengwen in the headquarters.

"Why don't you give up the position of chief of staff to Shen Zhengwen, he should do better than me!" Li Lingfei suggested.

Liao Fan lay on the hospital bed and shook his head gently, Li Lingfei has been in the position of chief of staff for so long, he is also familiar with various businesses, and he also knows the new 33rd Army, no one is more suitable than him as chief of staff.

"Of course, the position of chief of staff is still the most suitable for you, first transfer Shen Zhengwen back, as for the officers under him, they will all be promoted to one level, and the squad leader and soldiers will be arranged as platoon leaders to stay in the mine protection team temporarily!"

Liao Fan thought about it, there were many positions in the New 33rd Army that were still vacant, but there were very few that were really suitable for Shen Zhengwen, and if he wanted to arrange a suitable seat for him, he might have to consider it.

The three of them discussed some other matters in the army before Liao Jundong and Li Lingfei left the ward.

Liao Jundong, who returned to the headquarters, immediately called Yan Xuelin to the headquarters, and now the only one who can control the special operations brigade is Yan Xuelin, and it is best to give him the task arranged by Liao Fan.

"Brother Liao, is Brother Fan awake?"

"You will know what you should know, don't ask if you shouldn't know, the situation in Datong can only be solved by your special operations brigade, now life and death are uncertain, all the burdens are on you, you must be careful!"

"I see, I promise to complete the mission!"

Huang Changsheng's disappearance dealt a big blow to the special operations brigade and cast a shadow over the heads of the soldiers of the special operations brigade.

Yan Xuelin can be said to have been ordered in the face of danger, and the actions of the special operations brigade are not only related to the impact on the soldiers of the special operations brigade, but also related to the safety of Datong and the rise of the entire new 33rd army.

……

After the Japanese army escaped and ascended to heaven, Chairman Chiang was angry, he only punished a few people, and this matter was not resolved, but Luoyang was saved.

Although Luoyang was saved, Chairman Chiang had the energy to begin to care about the affairs of the Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningbo region and the Suzhou-Anhui region. The chairman of the committee wanted to do things and big things, and the affairs of the Eighth Route Army had not been resolved, and he had aimed the spearhead at the New Fourth Army.

Now that Liao Fan is dead, for Chairman Chiang, no matter how much the New 33rd Army can be tossed, it is still a toothless tiger, and he will obediently listen to Chongqing's words in the future, and it is only one step away from his goal of controlling power.

Chairman Chiang gave an order to Yan'an that the New Fourth Army must go north to resist the Japanese within the specified time, otherwise it will be punished as a rebel!

Everything changed too suddenly, and Chairman Chiang was completely there for them, and anyone with a discerning eye knew that Chairman Chiang was going to do something or something big, and although there was an anti-Japanese united front, it was now like a fictitious one.

Large-scale fighting broke out between the two political parties on the land of China, and the armed forces led by the Communist Party were attacked by the Nationalist army at about the same time. The contradictions accumulated by the two sides once again erupted on a large scale.

Liao Fan, who was lying on the hospital bed, quietly listened to the news from Li Lingfei, his expression was a little gloomy, and he just said softly, "I know."

China's current situation and contradictions are obvious, if it were not for the existence of such a thing as an external devil, it is estimated that the two sides would have to fight for a few years or more than a decade, and now Chairman Chiang is quite restrained, and he is also actively preparing for war on the frontal battlefield, but there are always some small actions behind the scenes, which really makes people feel uncomfortable.

"Now I can't take care of the affairs of both of them, you go and tell Political Commissar Liu to let him go back early, the Eighth Route Army is now short of manpower, he can help, staying here is not a long-term solution, but I can't tell him what I said!"

Political Commissar Liu has been in Taihang Mountain for a long time, and now things over there have not had much impact, and it is at the juncture of employing people, those people will definitely not exterminate their own people, and the role played by Political Commissar Liu in the army is not small, at this time, to move Political Commissar Liu, we must consider the current situation and the impact on the soldiers.

"Brother Fan, is there anything else to arrange?"

"Arrange a hospital bed next to me, carry Lao Hu over, I'm too bored by myself, and find me a few books from our library, even if it's a comic strip!"

Liao Fan is recovering from his injuries well, he has arranged everything that can be arranged in the army, and he is bored lying alone in the ward all day, of course he has to find something to pass the boring time.

Li Lingfei now runs to the ward regularly every day, first, to report the latest situation to Liao Fan, and second, to see if Liao Fan has any new instructions.

Of course, Liao Fan could only explain the general things to Li Lingfei while lying on the hospital bed, and he still needed to recuperate at most.

"By the way, there's one more thing I want to tell you! It's about Director Wang......"

Recently, Wang Haoran has been active in their station, pulling connections everywhere and making contacts, although there is nothing wrong with it on the surface, but in Li Lingfei's eyes, this is a big thing, especially Wang Haoran's military rank has suddenly been promoted, which makes Li Lingfei have a little more doubt in his heart.

"What are you suspecting?"

"It's just that he's always been getting close to our soldiers lately, especially with the soldiers of the guard regiment, and he runs to the guard regiment's station every three days!"

There were only troops of the guard regiment in the station, and Wang Haoran could only use them to carry out the tasks assigned to him by Dai Li.

"Aren't you the acting head of the guard regiment now? What do you eat? ”

"Brother Fan, I can't keep an eye on a soldier's private life every day, right?"

"From today onwards, the guard regiment has no holidays, no days off, and pulls up the mountain for training every day, so that the fighters have no strength to speak when they come back!"

Since Liao Jundong and Li Lingfei told Liao Fan that they suspected that the person who attacked Liao Fan was from Chongqing, Liao Fan also pondered the possibility of this matter, and as a result, he came to the conclusion that it was 100% probable, because if the little devil did it, he would not have launched a full-scale attack a few days after Liao Fan was injured.

Then there is only one situation that can be explained, that is, the people in Chongqing started to do it, and the little devil got the news later, and then launched a counterattack, so Liao Fan is sure that this matter is Chongqing's hand, but there is no evidence.

Since it is Chongqing's hand, Liao Fan must of course guard against the people of Chongqing, in addition to Wang Haoran, it naturally includes those soldiers recruited from the captives, Liao Fan can't be unguarded now, and he must be vigilant.

"Brother Fan, I know!"

"You don't have to tell me about this kind of thing in the future, if he dares to hit the attention of our troops and find a way to make him disappear directly, you Li Lingfei can still do this!"

Liao Fan didn't have much of a good impression of Wang Haoran in the first place, if he dared to hit the attention of the troops of the New 33rd Army, in Taihang Mountain, Liao Fan had a hundred means to make him disappear from the earth.

Under Li Lingfei's arrangement, Hu Guoshan was secretly sent to Liao Fan's ward, the wounds on his body were already healing, but one injury was on his leg, and he couldn't move around at all.
