    Xiaohezhuang is more than thirty kilometers away from Tongjing Town, but with the speed of the cavalry, it can be reached in two hours even by walking at night.

    At eight o'clock in the morning on August 4, Li Guoyao finally met Commander-in-Chief Yu Xuezhong.

    Knowing that Commander-in-Chief Yu was coming, Li Guoyao personally led people to greet him outside Tongjing Town. After meeting, out of respect, Li Guoyao directly paid a military salute to Yu Xuezhong.

    Then he said loudly: "Hello, sir, Li Guoyao of the Shandong Guerrilla Corps and his officers are reporting to you. Please give me your instructions."

    Commander-in-Chief Yu immediately returned the military salute and said with a smile: "Brother Shen Yan, you are so polite. You are now a lieutenant general guerrilla commander with outstanding military exploits and a well-known anti-Japanese hero. I cannot afford to be called a commander!"

    Li Guoyao said loudly: "**You are the commander-in-chief of the Sulu Theater. I am the commander of the Shandong Guerrilla Corps. The Shandong Guerrilla Corps belongs to the combat order of the Sulu Theater. I am your subordinate. Personally, you are my Northeast Army veteran. You  I had not yet joined the army when I became the commander of the army, so it is appropriate to address you as "sir."

    Commander-in-Chief Yu laughed loudly and said: "They say you, Li Guoyao, are so crazy that you don't even look down on Chairman Chiang Kai-shek, Minister He and others. I don't think so. I like hearing what you say. Come on, let's get there.  Let¡¯s talk to your headquarters.¡±

    The headquarters of Li Guoyao's headquarters was actually the Japanese garrison in Tongjing Town. After the Japs were eliminated, it was temporarily converted into a headquarters.

    Under the leadership of Li Guoyao, Commander-in-Chief Yu and Chief of Staff Wang Jingxuan and others came to the temporary headquarters of the Shandong Guerrilla Corps, and then sat down around an Eight Immortals table.

    After sitting down, Commander-in-Chief Yu spoke first: "Brother Solemn, how is the situation in your unit? How many casualties are there?"

    Li Guoyao immediately said: "It's okay, as for the casualties, they are not too big. After coming out of Xiong'er Mountain, our army launched attacks on the cavalry of the Mongolian army in Liancheng Town, Duozhuang Town and Qingtuo Town, winning three battles and three victories.  Annihilate this unit."

    "Subsequently, the troops conquered Mengyin County and Yishui County one after another, taking away the logistics bases of the independent 10th Brigade and the 5th Division. In addition, they conquered many Japanese strongholds and gun towers during the period. They won 18 battles and annihilated the Japanese army in total.  There are more than 10,000 puppet troops and numerous captures. However, our army suffered more than 1,300 casualties, including 700 killed and 600 wounded. Although the casualties are not small, it does not affect the combat effectiveness of the army!"

    Hearing Li Guoyao's words, Yu Xuezhong and others were stunned. Although they knew that Li Guoyao's troops had achieved great results in this battle, they did not expect that Li Guoyao's troops had won all 18 battles and wiped out more than 10,000 enemies.

    Although a large part of this number of enemies wiped out were puppet troops, accounting for more than 60% of the total number of enemies wiped out, it is still incredible that such brilliant results can be achieved in such a short period of time.

    "Brother Solemn, how many troops did your troops use when they came out of Xiong'er Mountain?"

    "More than five thousand, but they are all the elites of our unit. It can be said that they have brought out all the essence of the Shandong Guerrilla Corps!" Li Guoyao replied.

    "You can still win against 5,000 against 10,000. Only you, Li Guoyao, have the courage. I would like to thank you on behalf of the 70,000 brothers in the Sulu War Zone!"

    With that said, Yu Xuezhong bowed directly to Li Guoyao, his expression solemn and serious!

    In this regard, Li Guoyao naturally insisted on not granting the award, and said while returning the salute: "Sir, I'm waiting for you. The anti-Japanese war is a national war. How can we just watch the theater headquarters being besieged and not take action? Everything is as it should be."  of!"

    Li Guoyao's humility was unanimously praised by Yu Xuezhong and others. After the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, many young officers rose up, such as Zhang Xizhen's nephew, and the nephew of Yang Sen of the Sichuan Army, both of whom were famous young men in the army.  A handsome man, but there are not many young people like Li Guoyao who have great military achievements but are humble and gentle in their treatment of others.

    "Brother Solemn, what do you think of the current war situation?" Yu Xuezhong asked again.

    Li Guoyao thought for a while and said: "The overall situation of the Lunan war has been decided. Although the Japanese army has 13 armies, three of them were surrounded and annihilated by our army. The logistics bases of the other two main forces were taken away. At present, the independent mixed 10th brigade is also in a state of disarray.  In the midst of the siege of our army, looking at the Japanese army's entire iron wall encirclement strategy, it was completely ruined, and they had lost the best opportunity to completely annihilate the Sulu theater."

    "Therefore, it will be a matter of time for the Japs on the front line to evacuate Lunan. It depends on whether the Japanese command headquarters can act quickly enough. If their reinforcements are timely, then the thousands of Japs in Yinan County can still be saved. Otherwise, the little Japs will  The losses will probably be unprecedented."

    Zhou Fu, director of the Political Department of the Sulu Theater Zone, said with a smile: "Commander Li is very concerned about the current war situation.Optimistic?  So what are your views on the prospects of today's war between China and Japan? Are you as optimistic as this?  "

    Li Guoyao thought for a while and said: "Whether you are optimistic or not depends on the strength comparison between the two countries. If you asked this question two years ago, I might not be able to answer you, but now, I can answer you for sure. I will fight against  The prospect is very optimistic, the Japanese army will be defeated and the war of resistance will be won!"

    "Oh, why was it difficult to answer this question two years ago?" Zhou Fu asked immediately.

    "Because we were at an absolute disadvantage two years ago compared to the strength of our enemies and ourselves. At that time, in order to get rid of the economic crisis and develop the economy, and then realize its long-standing "mainland policy," the Japanese government launched the "September 18th" Incident and occupied China's territory.  Northeast China, on the other hand, vigorously accelerates the militarization of the national economy and vigorously develops the military industry."

    Then Li Guoyao continued: "According to the information we seized, in 1937, Japan produced 5.8 million tons of steel, 2.39 million tons of pig iron, 1.69 million tons of oil, 6.11 million tons of cement, and generated 3.03 million kilowatts of electricity. The total industrial output value was close to 60  billion, accounting for 80% of the national economy, and has become an industrial power. At this time, China is just a big country, a behemoth with soft feet."

    "China has a population of 460 million and a territory of 11.42 million square kilometers, and is rich in resources. But at that time, China was only a weak agricultural country with a very weak industrial base. Its rich resources were not fully developed and utilized, and its total output value was only 13.6  billion US dollars, accounting for only 10% of the total national economic output. On this basis, it is difficult for the military industry to develop."

    "By 1937, only infantry light weapons and small-caliber artillery could be produced. Large-caliber artillery, tanks, automobiles, etc. could not yet be produced. Although aircraft and ships had been produced in small quantities, major components and raw materials had to be imported. There was no mass production.  The ability, in terms of the needs of war, is actually equivalent to being unable to be manufactured."

    "If Japan only seeks short-term interests, then China will undoubtedly lose. This is the same for anyone who analyzes it. Therefore, let me answer this question in the early days of the Anti-Japanese War. I have not yet figured out whether the Japanese army will just hit and run or whether they will occupy China for a long time.  It¡¯s really hard to answer before you know the purpose.¡±

    Zhou Fu then asked: "Then why are you answering so firmly now? Is it because the strength of the enemy and ourselves has changed?"

    "right!"

    "Appreciate further details!"

    Li Guoyao said immediately: "Now we can basically determine that the little devils did not launch this war just for short-term interests. In other words, the Marco Polo Bridge Incident in 1937 was different from the Sino-Japanese War in 1905. At that time, we used three  Ten million in redemption fees plus a bay island can feed the Japanese, but now we can't feed the hungry wolf of the Japanese even if we use the whole of North China. Their purpose is to subjugate our country and annihilate China.  Become their colony.¡±

    "It's understandable that a small person can win a big prize. Who can say that the odds of winning are not 10%, but they are still 10% certain. But the little devil wants to play the game of snake swallowing the elephant, which is an opportunity for us!"

    "Chance?"

    "Yes, a chance to completely defeat Japan!" Li Guoyao said.

    "Stern brother, why do you think this is an opportunity? You must know that judging from the current situation in the country, we are actually still at an absolute disadvantage. Even one-third of the country's territory has been occupied by the little devils. And at a glance  Go, at least we won¡¯t have a chance to counterattack in three or two years, but whether we can persist for such a long time is still unknown!¡± Zhou Fu asked in a deep voice.

    "This is just on the surface. In fact, we have now dragged the little devils into the abyss. As long as we are given time, defeating the Japanese is not a big problem. All in all, the future is promising!" (Remember this website address: www.hlnovel.com
