At the Yangquan Command of the National Salvation Army, Zhou Cheng was completely relieved by the successful completion of the second transaction.

With more than 20 million kilograms of grain as a foundation, it can not only solve the problem of food shortage among disaster victims at one time, but also greatly alleviate the grain pressure in the defense zone when the famine comes.

Because there was too much food to trade tonight, in order to prevent the Japanese from suddenly changing their minds, they dispatched planes to bomb these foods that had just been received and had not yet been heated. Including Zhou Cheng, all the soldiers who could use the National Salvation Army concentrated on the railway line to transport the food.

Zhou Cheng carried a sack of food hard and walked towards the cart next to him with great difficulty.

This was the fiftieth sack of food he carried tonight. As soon as he piled the sacks onto the cart, he saw Chief of Staff Chen Zhengyu hurried over.

No, Chen Zhengyu has now become the acting chief of staff.

The last time he failed to attack Yangquan, the regiment gave him a very serious punishment: the Chief of Staff was directly demoted to Deputy Chief of Staff and Acting Chief of Staff!

"Captain, there is news about the investigation team!" Chen Zhengyu reported with a happy expression.

"The Japanese devils were very cunning. They actually used a trick to secretly travel to Chen Cang. They stopped five kilometers away from our defense zone, transported the ocean to a car, and took the road to Taiyuan!"

"But no matter how cunning the enemy is, it cannot escape the pursuit of excellent hunters. Wang Tieshan immediately changed the combat plan: the troops were divided into two, and the main force immediately evacuated the train and chased the Japanese to transport the ocean's cars. A combat team continued to follow the train and rushed to the front to stop the car!"

"After more than an hour of fighting, Wang Tieshan successfully wiped out the Japanese escort troops and snatched back all the oceans."

"At present, the reconnaissance team is on the way back to the defense zone. In order to ensure that those oceans are no longer targeted, I have ordered the Second Guard Company to go to the edge of the defense zone to respond!"

"There is another thing. In addition to secretly visiting Chencang, the Japanese also arranged the trains as bait and took the railway to Taiyuan with great fanfare to attract the war zone operation team to take the initiative to attack them."

"As a result, they were really fooled. They were first caught off guard by the Japanese on the train, and then surrounded by other Japanese and puppet troops, trying to gather them and annihilate them."

"When the two sides fought, our assault team was still in the car, and it was impossible to watch the operation team be eliminated. Without orders, he made a decision and secretly helped the operation team to cover them out of the encirclement! But in the end, fifty or sixty operation teams were killed by the Japanese and puppet troops!"

"Have they lost or were they exposed!" Zhou Cheng asked immediately.

Chen Zhengyu shook his head: "No, the assault team launched an attack from behind the Japanese and puppet troops, tear a hole in the encirclement and retreated. He had no contact with the operation team and the Japanese and puppet troops, and there were no casualties!"

Zhou Cheng laughed after hearing this: "That's good. The decision of the assault team is very correct. The war zone is not kind, and we must not be unrighteous, and we cannot be dissuading the enemy from the death. The regiment will not only not punish them, but also reward them."

Chen Zhengyu had guessed this result a long time ago and continued to report: "There is another thing. The Japanese and puppet troops on the blockade line suddenly showed signs of retreat. We just finished trading with them, and the troops on the blockade line withdrew. This is a coincidence. I always think there is some connection between the two?"

Zhou Cheng immediately frowned: Blocking the defense zone of the National Rescue Army is a very important means for the Japanese and puppet troops to suppress the National Rescue Army.

If the Japanese and puppet troops were dispatched from the blockade line, there would definitely be a large gap in the blockade line due to insufficient troops, and the outside of the grain and other materials would have the opportunity to enter the defense zone. Unlike in the past two months, even a piece of grain outside could not enter the defense zone.

In this way, the results of the Japanese and puppet troops blocking the national rescue army before will definitely be gone.

Just when Zhou Cheng was puzzled and couldn't understand why the Japanese army did such a stupid thing that could break their hands. The food piled on the cart suddenly entered Zhou Cheng's vision, his frowning brows instantly stretched, and he shouted with a sudden enlightenment.

"I understand that the Japanese and puppet troops blocked us before to increase our food pressure."

"This time we bought more than 20 million kilograms of grain from them at once. The problem of food shortage is solved. There is no need to make food from outside the defense zone, so the significance of the Japanese establishing this blockade line is gone."

"Instead of wasting troops on this blockade with much importance, it is better to draw precious troops elsewhere."

"As far as I know, the speed at which the Japanese North China Front Army replenished new recruits to the Shanxi garrison was far inferior to their consumption speed on the battlefield, resulting in the number of troops in Shanxi garrisons becoming less and less, especially the mobile troops, many of which were eliminated in an institutional way."

"In order to stabilize the situation in Shanxi, the Japanese garrisons in Shanxi had to form a large number of Imperial Army troops and use the Imperial Army to make up for their lack of troops."

"But the Imperial Army has limited combat effectiveness, and it is no problem to rely on fortifications to guard the artillery tower and the county town. If you fight in a field, you are tantamount to die."

"In order to make up for their fewer and fewer mobile troops, they had to replace a large number of garrison troops with the Imperial Army, and then add the garrison troops to the mobile troops, specifically used to attack war zones, the Eighth Route Army, and our National Salvation Army."

"But this method of demolishing the east and filling the west walls cannot solve the fundamental problem of their lack of troops. After the last time, the Shanxi garrison failed to sweep the two independent regiments, the Shanxi garrison once again fell into a situation where there were no troops available."

"But they can't watch the two independent groups grow and grow in their hinterland, threatening their safety, so they can only continue to tear down the east wall and repair the west wall."

"We just made a fuss to make money and bought a lot of food from them, solving the problem of food shortage in the defense zone, and greatly reducing the effect of the blockade line on us."

"The Japanese army naturally turned their attention to the blockade line."

"If I expected it was right, most of the transferred Japanese were Japanese, and they were used to deal with two independent groups!"

Chen Zhengyu nodded immediately: "It's true."

"On the previous blockade, the Japanese and puppet troops each accounted for half of the troops, and the Japanese troops in some important strongholds even had more than the puppet troops."

"After reducing these Japanese and puppet troops that were about to be transferred, not only did the total strength of the garrison on the blockade line be reduced by half, but the proportion of the Japanese army has also dropped from 50% to less than 30% now."

"There are so many smaller artillery towers that only a few Japanese left to supervise the battle, and the rest are all puppet troops!"

Hearing this, Zhou Cheng became more convinced of his judgment: "Since it has been confirmed that the Japanese were dispatching troops to demolish the east and west walls, and there were no other conspiracies, then we don't have to worry about them."

"All the National Salvation Army remain unmoved and take the opportunity to develop defense zones. We cannot provoke the Japanese and puppet troops for any reason. We continue to show the Japanese that we have no intention of fighting with them. Everything we do is to protect ourselves now, especially after the National Salvation Army is isolated, we do not want to be enemies with anyone."

"As for the two independent regiments, they can defeat the first round of heavy troops in the Japanese army, and they will definitely be able to defeat the second time. We just need to wait and see what happens."

"If they really encounter any danger, they will definitely find a way to contact us actively and find a way to help them secretly at that time."

When everyone did not realize that the Japanese army had concealed other conspiracies from the blockade line, the atmosphere at the theater command immediately became tense because of a telegram.

Especially the Commander-in-Chief, he was so angry that he threw all the teacups on the table.

The intelligence officer stood beside him, and was scolded by the commander-in-chief and dared not say a word with his head down.

But he was particularly angry and frustrated. He felt that the intelligence department had suffered unanimous disasters and should not only not be scolded, but also receive the war zone commendation and compensation.

The Chief of Staff also felt that the Commander-in-Chief scolded too much and hesitated to remind: "Sir, our intelligence personnel behind enemy lines are not combat troops after all, and they are definitely not the opponents of the Japanese elite."

"Although their actions failed, they did not destroy the transaction between the National Salvation Army and the Japanese, and were ambushed by the Japanese, and suffered heavy losses, their first action was successful and their courage was commendable. At the same time, they also reminded us of: next time they encounter such an action, they must not directly send intelligence personnel to the war, but should draw elite troops from the army to form an operation team and secretly go deep into the enemy's backbone to carry out missions."

The intelligence officer looked at the Chief of Staff with gratitude and reported with a grievance: "Sir, this operation not only lost a large number of operational team members, but also angered the Japanese."

"Although we successfully robbed the train for the first time, some people took the lead and snatched the ocean in advance. The Japanese didn't know that they always thought that the ocean that was traded for the first time was snatched away by us, and they sent troops to encircle us wildly and snatch the ocean back."

"But the ocean is not in our hands, and the Japanese can only vent their anger by killing people."

"In just three days, four intelligence stations have been uprooted by the Japanese and lost more than one hundred intelligence officers."

"The Japanese have not stopped yet, and are following the clues to continue to round up our intelligence officers."

"To mitigate the losses, I have ordered all the intelligence personnel who may be implicated to lurk and disconnect them from their superiors."

"After this battle, it will take at least a year for our intelligence network to recover in that area."

"Bang..." The commander-in-chief was so angry that he punched the table again, gritting his teeth and cursing: "It's so annoying. The action we carefully planned not only did not get any benefits, but also made him feel fucked. He suffered heavy losses. If we had known this, we wouldn't care about this matter!"

Chief of Staff analyzed: "Sir, we analyzed the operation team's first train robbery. After discussing the discussion, we felt that we had taken the blame for the National Saving Army."

"The only one who takes the lead in the journey and takes away the ocean in advance is the national rescue army."

"Only they can ambush the troops onto the train under the noses of the Japanese and puppet troops, raid the Japanese in the carriage at close range, and finally evacuate the train, so that we can get out of here."

"The cunning national-savior army actually dares to plot against us. It's so hateful!" The angry face of the commander-in-chief became even stronger.

But at this point, he had no choice but to face the successful National Savior Army, and he could not even send a reprimand telegram, because he had no reason to prove that this matter was related to the National Savior Army, and there was no reason to prove that the transaction target of the National Savior Army was the Shanxi garrison. Otherwise, he could use this as a handle to threaten them.
