Chapter 44 Chongqing's Plan

The boss didn't finish speaking, and the chairman continued: "He wants to kill two birds with one stone, expand Brigade Commander Chen into a division, and transfer them to Shandong. ”

"Leave the new regiment and let them expand into brigades, then the new regiment will have to face the encirclement and suppression of the devils alone, so that the troops in both directions will not be pleased, and the annihilation of the whole army is just around the corner."

After the chairman finished speaking, Mr. Zhu smiled bitterly, everyone has calculated, you have made great contributions to the Eighth Route Army, we will reward you, if you don't agree, there must be a lot of gossip.

"Chairman, this hand is ruthless enough, you see that he has even made up for his weapons and equipment, the purpose is to let us fight, now the new regiment and Brigade Commander Chen's troops are all staring at the eyes of devils, and the next thing is a life-and-death battle."

The chairman thought for a while, looked at the map, raised his head and said affirmatively: "Give Chongqing a return, we accept it, things have to look at both sides, we have such a good opportunity to meddle in Shandong, then don't let it go." ”

"Brigade Commander Chen's expansion into a division is also a sequence of the country's famous army, and if he goes to Shandong, he can justifiably expand, which is in line with our plan, let them go there to open up a base area."

"As for the expansion of the new regiment into a brigade, Chongqing let them stay where they were, and let Lao Peng command the troops to get close to the new regiment and support them at any time."

After the chairman finished speaking, the two glanced at each other, and the key point at present was that Li Ping's new group could hold on, and as long as it took a few months, everything would be fine.

The boss thought for a while and said, "Chairman, since it is feasible, I will immediately send a telegram, but now there is another problem, that is, Li Ping, a child of eighteen or nineteen years old, is promoted to brigade commander......"

The chairman also reacted, lit a cigarette, and thought about it, this is indeed a big problem, a regular brigade, and it is a unit that will face the encirclement and suppression of the devil's heavy troops, Li Ping's age is too young, so he is afraid that he will be impulsive.

A few minutes later, the chairman made a decision and said: "Li Ping, that little ghost can fight, we all know this, we agree to promote him to brigade commander, but we must give him some veteran and serious cadres, and on the premise of not affecting his command, he can even stop his foothold, boss, what do you think?" ”

Mr. Zhu nodded and said, "I agree, I'll arrange it immediately." ”

Yan'an's telegram was sent to the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army, and the boss who received the telegram smiled bitterly and said, "Yan'an agreed, what should we do now?" ”

Yan'an agreed, which meant that Brigade Commander Chen was going to leave with the troops, leaving a new regiment and a lone army, and the political commissar read the telegram and smiled bitterly: "If Li Ping knew, he would definitely scold his mother, and the troops around him were gone, do you say he is easy?" ”

After the political commissar finished speaking, everyone laughed, the new regiment finally broke out of the mountain, and finally got in touch with the three regiments of the brigade headquarters, and now they are ready to pat their butts and leave, leaving the new regiment with an isolated and helpless situation.

"Boss, we can mobilize troops to fill the void of Brigade Commander Chen's departure, so that the situation of the new regiment will be a little better." After the chief of staff finished speaking, everyone stared at him.

The boss smiled wryly and said: "We can transfer troops there, the current base areas are all troops for defense, if the troops are transferred, it will be equivalent to tearing down the east wall and making up the west wall, and there will be loopholes everywhere at that time, I'm afraid the devil will have to jump up happily." ”

Brigade Commander Chen was silent, he raised his head and said to everyone: "Boss, the equipment that Chongqing has given us will be delivered soon, and I can delay it for a while, and I will go to Shandong when the situation of the new regiment improves, what do you say?" ”

The boss and the political commissar rolled their eyes, stared at Brigade Commander Chen and said, "That's such a good thing, let's take advantage of the cheapness, Chongqing is not a dry meal." ”

"Lao Tzu is sure, when the equipment arrives, you have to leave, otherwise Chongqing will have to make trouble."

Isn't that so? Everyone said that if you eat something, you will leave, if you don't leave, the reputation of the Eighth Route Army will be damaged.

"Forget it, you go back and prepare for reorganization, and I will also transfer cadres to the new regiment, and you will also bring them back with you."

"We don't want any weapons and equipment that Chongqing gives you, you are ready to fight a tough battle!"

Brigade Commander Chen stayed at the headquarters for a few days and left with the cadres of the new regiment from the headquarters, and on the other side, Chongqing received a telegram and smiled.

"Chairman of the committee, I can't imagine that Balu really ate this bait, so let them fight to the death with the devil in the future!"

The generals in the conference room all laughed, and the chairman waved his hand to signal everyone to stop, and said: "Give the order to the Second War Zone, let them first transfer weapons and equipment to the Eighth Route Army, and Chongqing will make up for them." ”

"Yes"

The chairman of the committee was happy, the devil was urgent, and Li Ping was dumbfounded, and the telegram from the headquarters almost made him fall.

The commissar and the chief of staff took the telegram and looked at it, and the two of them almost vomited blood, how could things have turned out like this.

"Regiment commander, in this way, not to mention that we are expanding into a brigade, it is useless to expand into a division, and when the brigade commander and them leave, we will be surrounded by devils."

After the chief of staff finished speaking, Li Ping smiled bitterly, and said that it was very beneficial to the Eighth Route Army in the overall situation, but his new regiment had to fight with the devils for a few months, and they had to go back to the mountains if they were not careful.

The political commissar took a deep breath of cigarette and said: "Since the headquarters has a decision, then we will implement it, and we will ...... it."

The political commissar couldn't go on, Li Ping fell silent, thinking about the change in the situation, which was a disaster for the new group, but it was also an opportunity, and it depended on how the road went.

There was no way for a few people to do it for the time being, but Chongqing's speed was very fast, and in only half a month, their appointments and weapons and equipment were sent to the brigade headquarters, and Li Ping had to go to the brigade headquarters for a meeting.

Li Ping came to the brigade headquarters with the guards, and Regiment Commander Zhang and several people were already waiting.

"Commander, how are you doing?" , Li Ping came up and saluted and gave Head Zhang a hug.

"Hahaha, you bastard, Lao Tzu knows that you have a future, it's only been a long time, the devil lieutenant general has let you be captured, and you have given us the face of the independent regiment leader." , Regiment Commander Zhang laughed, saying that Li Ping is still a cadre from his independent regiment, and he can blow this cow for a lifetime.

The two talked while walking, Li Ping also greeted the two regiment commanders, and several people came to the headquarters and immediately saluted the brigade commander and others.

"Hahaha, you're your Ping! I haven't seen you with the Chief of Staff yet! The political commissar pulled Li Ping to speak, everyone laughed, it was strange to say, Li Ping was promoted too fast, he has been fighting on the front line, and many people in the brigade headquarters do not know what he looks like, it can be said that they only hear his name but do not know who he is.

"Hello chief, I'm Li Ping." As soon as Li Ping saluted, the political commissar pulled him to sit down.

After everyone finished greetings, the brigade commander's face began to become serious.
