The soldiers made great sacrifices, but the Japanese troops on the Great Wall defense line were very well guarded, and the soldiers were only able to detect the deployment of the outer Japanese defenses, and as for the internal deployment, none of the soldiers they arranged to go in could return.

Since they didn't complete the mission, they couldn't go back, even if they all died here in the end, because each of them was burdened with the lives of a dozen or even dozens of comrades-in-arms, and the victory or defeat of a battle was not only the precise deployment of the commander, but also the intelligence that these lowest-level fighters exchanged their lives for.

War is never a matter of one person, and for the sake of victory in war, someone must make sacrifices, and it is precisely these soldiers who are willing to make sacrifices for the country and the people that the war develops in a direction that is beneficial to them.

"Did you hear any gunshots today?" The reconnaissance company commander asked his deputy company commander.

"Not today, but someone heard gunshots in the area of Xiaoshiling yesterday afternoon, and I already sent someone to see it last night, and I didn't find anything except bloodstains!"

"Arrange someone to search in detail tonight, since he desperately escaped, he must have important information in his hand!"

Since the soldier insisted on running so far, he must have important information in his hand, otherwise the soldier would have run so far knowing that he could not escape. If he didn't have any information in his hand and was discovered by the little devil, he believed that his soldiers would definitely choose to turn around and fight the Japanese army in the last round instead of running away.

When the Japanese learned that the Chinese soldiers frequently reconnoitred their troop deployments, the Japanese military top brass also analyzed that the Chinese soldiers were about to attack them. So the little devil also began to urgently mobilize his troops.

The New 33rd Army also began to mobilize troops, and the spies lurking around also spread the news that the New 33rd Army was mobilizing troops. Around Datong, the strength of the New 33rd Army also increased.

Although the troops are being urgently mobilized, Liao Fan has not yet planned to order the troops to set off, because he has to consider Liao Jundong's safety, and now Liao Jundong is negotiating with the commander of the Japanese army in Shanxi.

The negotiations did not go very well, because the commander of the little devil only wanted to learn about the movements of the New 33rd Army from Liao Jundong's mouth, but the Japanese commander's thoughts were always seen through by Liao Jundong.

"I don't think we need to talk anymore, because you're always wasting your time!"

Liao Jundong faced the commander of the little devil, today is already the second day, the Japanese army only raised the issue of prisoners, and now even the most basic conditions for the exchange of prisoners of war have not been negotiated, this is obviously not to negotiate.

"Mr. Liao, we are sincere in negotiating, as for our captured soldiers, we are willing to exchange your captured soldiers for back!" The commander of the little devil wanted to exchange prisoners of war for prisoners of war.

Since the Japanese invasion of China, there have been hundreds of thousands of Chinese soldiers they have captured, and most of these prisoners of war are engaged in heavy physical labor, and their physical fitness has declined greatly.

Liao Jundong just smiled evilly: "As far as I know, in the previous battles, our New 33rd Army should not have any soldiers captured by you, right?" I don't know which prisoners of war you're talking about? If we were to exchange prisoners of war from the national army, we would have to change this condition! ”

"Mr. Liao, although they are not soldiers of your New 33rd Army, they are all Chinese. It's fair to trade one of you for another! ”

Obviously, the little devil's wishful thinking was wrong, and with the current ability of the New 33rd Army, there is no need for those soldiers of the national army at all. But since these soldiers have a chance to be rescued, Liao Jundong doesn't want to miss this opportunity, after all, they are all people who have proven their dedication to the country on the battlefield.

"Mr. Shinozuka, they are Chinese soldiers, I will rescue them if I have a chance, but you have to make it clear that our new 33rd Army is now full of troops, assuming that in terms of doing business, the goods in your hands are not what I urgently need, and the goods in my hands are what you urgently need, then the price will have to be negotiated separately!"

Being able to rescue a group of prisoners of war is considered a group of prisoners of war, but Liao Jundong knows that this matter cannot be rushed, once the little devils have an advantage in negotiations, they will lose the initiative in negotiations.

After all, the Japanese army in Shanxi is now lacking in troops, and it is the commander of the Japanese army, not Liao Jundong, who should be impatient.

The commander of the Japanese army also knew that he could not show weakness at this time: "In this case, I think it is more suitable for those prisoners of war to work in the mines!" ”

"Oh? Then we won't change, since you don't plan to change, this matter will be crossed out from the content of our negotiations, and then talk about you to put forward the second condition, but you want to think clearly, what are you going to say, you are wasting my time, I don't have the patience to negotiate with you, and then we will see each other on the battlefield! ”

Liao Jundong gave the commander of the little devil a preventive shot in advance, so as not to prevent the old devil in front of him from pulling the matter elsewhere, and then inquired about the situation of the new 33rd Army in a roundabout way.

The Japanese commander also did not expect that the negotiations had turned back to the original point so far, and the two of them had been talking nonsense for so long and had not done anything useful, which also made the Japanese commander a little discouraged.

And the Japanese commander really wanted to exchange for the captured soldiers on his side, after all, Shanxi's troops were really stretched, and it can be seen from Datong that even if their troops held Datong, they did not have enough troops to send reinforcements to relieve the siege of Datong.

"I still want to continue to talk about the prisoners of war, I don't know what conditions Mr. Liao wants to exchange for prisoners of war?" The Japanese commander decided to give in, after all, the combat effectiveness of their fighters was still there.

"Didn't you just say you wouldn't change it? If you don't talk about credit, it should be you Japanese who are the ones who are in the middle of the day! ”

Liao Jundong changed back all the things that the little devil commander said yesterday that the new 33rd Army had a credit problem, and the little devil's commander was speechless, he had indeed changed and changed in the matter of negotiations. The Japanese commanders were only trying to get the best interests for them.

"Mr. Liao, we are negotiating, and it is normal that there are many things that need to be renegotiated in the negotiation!" The little devil commander was making excuses for himself, "The matter of the prisoners of war, I need to agree with my relatives!" ”

"Okay, since Mr. Shinozuka is so sincere, then I'll make a condition!" Liao Jundong stretched out his hand and gestured in front of the little devil's commander, "Three for one!" Either change, or we move on to the next question! ”

The commander of the little devil thought about it, and the number of soldiers they captured did not exceed one, even if one exchanged for three Chinese soldiers, they would take out a maximum of 30,000 people, and this deal seemed to be a good deal.

But just when the commander of the little devil was about to agree, Liao Jundong spoke again: "Three for one, just for your soldiers, as for the military cao and officers, they should be counted separately!" Jun Cao and Cao Chang are one for six, but one for warrant officers for twelve, and so on! ”

"This ...... You're asking for a lot of money! Among your captured personnel are quite a few officers! "The commander of the little devil was furious, if he pushed it down, it would take nearly two hundred Chinese prisoners of war for a Shaozo to be able to exchange it back.

"What are the officers of the national army you are talking about? Those officers don't have the ability to fight, but the ability to harm the troops is stronger than the other, do I want them to harm the troops? If I have to change them, these officers can only be counted as a quarter of the Chinese soldiers, and it will be a waste of my food to exchange them back! ”

Of course, Liao Jundong knew that there were many good officers in the national army, especially the junior officers who survived on the battlefield, and they still had command ability. But in order to get back more people, Liao Jundong could only belittle them first, so that they could exchange the limited resources in their hands for more soldiers.

However, Liao Jundong lowered the negotiating weight of the Japanese army so much, and the commander of the little devil did not agree, which was obviously a loss-making deal. A young man asked for nearly two hundred prisoners of war, even if they had a lot of prisoners of war in their hands, but they could not just return them to the Chinese, these Chinese picked up guns, they could fight them, which was obviously to send themselves into the fire pit.

"You ......" The little devil commander just wanted to point at Liao Jundong's nose and scold, but suddenly caught a glimpse of Gongyong, and immediately retracted his hand, "Mr. Liao, there is no such sky-high price as you, we are negotiating, you are clearly a robbery!" ”

"Don't worry, my conditions haven't been finished yet, after listening to my conditions, you will definitely not think that this is a robbery!" Liao Jundong continued, "The exchanged Chinese soldiers must have a regular unit number, and they must be able to tell which unit they have been in, what battles they have participated in, and where they have been captured, and it must be clearly written, otherwise how do I know if there will be spies lurking among these prisoners of war!" ”

Recently, the Taihang Mountain spies have been making more trouble, if the little devil takes advantage of the exchange of prisoners of war and arranges spies among the prisoners of war, Liao Jundong can be regarded as luring the wolf into the room.

"You...... You ......"

The commander of the little devil was speechless, this is indeed not robbery, this is clearly exploitation, they only care about capturing Chinese soldiers, where they come from and what they have experienced. Tens of thousands of prisoners of war, where is it so easy to count.

"What's the matter? Disagree? If you don't agree, don't talk about it! According to the plan of the new 33rd Army this year, even if the prisoners of war in Shanxi are not rescued now, after they recover Shanxi this year, these prisoners of war can also see the light of day, but these prisoners of war will suffer more crimes.

"Well, I promise to apply this condition in exchange for prisoners of war!"

The Japanese commander finally agreed to Liao Jundong's conditions, but this surprised Liao Jundong. Liao Jundong began to think about why the commander of the little devils suddenly needed the Japanese prisoners in their hands so urgently.
