Li Guoyao's words are really surprising. If everyone hadn't served under him for such a long time, they would have been familiar with him. Otherwise, they would have thought that the person in front of them had been replaced.
It is not easy for troops to establish a foothold in one place, and it is even more difficult to capture a county town. Of course, for troops who are not directly affiliated with the Central Army, capturing a county town is tantamount to making a fortune.
This time, the Ninth Army captured so many county towns at once, and basically every regiment was assigned one. In the past month and a half, each regiment has made a lot of money. Not only did they raise enough food and military pay, but also Recruiting a large number of new soldiers has obvious benefits.
More importantly, the Japanese army is currently fighting the Eighth Route Army and has no time or energy to attack them. They will be safe in a short period of time, so there is no need to give up the fat in their mouths!
Knowing that everyone was confused, Li Guoyao immediately said: "I know you have doubts, so I will give you two reasons!"
Hearing Li Guoyao¡¯s words, everyone¡¯s ears perked up. They all wanted to know what Li Guoyao was thinking, that he would choose to give in at this time!
Li Guoyao did not keep everyone waiting, and said directly: "The first reason is that the arm cannot twist the thigh. It is not only Shi Yousan who is forcing us to give up our territory this time, but also Lu Zhonglin and Zhang Yinwu. , Sun Dianying, Zhu Huaibing, Sun Liangcheng and others, all of these people are jealous of our gains during this period, and there may not be higher-level people behind them. Although we are not afraid of these grandsons, there is no need to It¡¯s not worth fighting against them when you are still young!¡±
"The second reason is that we need these people to take the blame now. Don't look at us for killing everyone during this period, and we are majestic. But we must see one thing clearly, that is, the foundation of our army is limited. During this period, The successive great victories were based on the depletion of the combat potential of the troops. The two battles in southern Hebei and the two battles in southwestern Shandong resulted in a total of more than 24,000 casualties in our unit, which has damaged the foundation!"
"Many people say that we recruited a large number of new soldiers after the war, and there was basically no loss in strength, and there were many more people than before. But you have to know that those we lost were veterans of hundreds of battles, and those we recruited back are New recruits, the two are not equal at all. Even on the real battlefield, three recruits may not be able to compare with one veteran."
"For new recruits to go to the battlefield, they need at least three months of recruit training, and they have to go through countless battlefield practices before they are qualified to fight face-to-face with the Japanese army. The resources consumed during this period are unimaginable. Therefore, during this period On the surface, we have achieved unimaginable results, but in fact, our strength has declined significantly"
Before he finished speaking, Zhang Shaolin frowned and asked, "But what does this have to do with us giving up our territory?"
"Why doesn't it matter? It matters a lot!"
Then Li Guoyao continued: "If we continue to occupy these more than ten counties and districts in southern Hebei and the important town of Handan, then not only those in the Hebei-Cha war zone will be unwilling to accept it, but they may stab us in the back, and even the Japanese will not let it go. We are growing stronger. After all, if we grow stronger today, tomorrow they will have to use 10% of their combat power to eliminate us. The Japanese will not be that stupid!"
"Right now, the Japanese army is indeed being held back by the Eighth Route Army, but haven't you noticed that the Eighth Route Army's offensive has entered a state of fatigue? The Japanese army is currently counterattacking, and the Eighth Route Army is in a very passive situation. If it goes against my expectations, at most there will be another attack. In half a month, the Japs will completely take the strategic initiative and defeat the Eighth Route Army's attack, and then it will be our turn to be the target!"
"So if we don't give up the territory in our hands now, we will need to fight the Japanese army face to face. And then the opponent will not only be the second-rate unit of the 110th Division, but you three columns alone will not be able to defend it. Jinnan, and will be beaten by the Japanese army to the point of neglecting one thing and losing sight of the other, resulting in heavy casualties."
"More importantly, once you lose Jinan, you will not only have to bear huge losses for yourself, but also bear huge pressure from the Hebei-Chacha War Zone and even Chongqing. You must know that Jinan was lost in your hands. At that time, no one would remember that southern Hebei was originally taken back from the Japanese by you."
Hearing Li Guoyao¡¯s words, everyone fell silent!
They are not stupid. After Li Guoyao mentioned this, everyone instantly understood the key.
Indeed, the reason why the Japanese army is not attacking now is because their main force has been held back by the Eighth Route Army. Once they slow down, the first one to deal with will probably be the defenders in southern Hebei.
Who will be the guardian of Jinan at that time?Whoever prepares troops will suffer, no matter it is the Jiujiu Army or any troops at the Hebei-Cha War Zone Headquarters, there will be no exception!
Once the Japanese army comes to attack, it will definitely be a thunderous offensive. With the small number of soldiers in southern Hebei Province, to be honest, it is really not enough!
Also, they have thought clearly about the consequences of what Li Guoyao said at the end. It is indeed the case. Once Ji Nan is lost from the hands of their troops, I don¡¯t know how many people will jump out to blame them. It will definitely be very serious. passive.
"Chief, are they just forcing us to give up so many counties and districts to them? Why am I so unwilling?" Zhang Shaolin said solemnly.
"Yes, although what the chief executive said makes sense, why do I feel so aggrieved?"
"Fuck, I really"
Li Guoyao raised his hand to stop everyone, and then said: "Haha, we can give up this land, but it is not so easy for them to take it from us!"
"Oh, Chief, what are you going to do?"
Li Guoyao smiled and said: "The land is in our hands now, and it is our stuff. We can give it to them, but they can't take it away if they don't want it. This is a matter of principle!"
"Yes! That's the truth!"
"This land was acquired by us brothers with great efforts, and there is no reason to give it away for free, so whoever wants it can buy it with money!" Li Guoyao said in a surprising way.
"Get money to buy it?"
Everyone was stunned, feeling that their minds couldn't keep up with Li Guoyao's rhythm. Is there still such an operation?
"Master, will they be willing to pay? Besides, how will the price be determined?"
"Yes, those guys want to come and take advantage of the autumn wind. Is it possible to ask them to take money out of their pockets?"
"I'm tired of seeing it"
Li Guoyao chuckled and said: "There is no free lunch in the world. If you don't let your children catch the wolf, this is the world of adults. They won't naively think that touching their upper lip to their lower lip can take away the territory from us! So, as long as If you are a smart person, you will pay for it obediently, instead of being a fool and messing around!"
"As for the price, my initial price is 200,000 yuan for a county and 400,000 yuan for Handan City. If you have money, pay for it. If you don't have money, just use food, cloth, and weapons and equipment."
"Two hundred thousand, are those people willing to pay so much for it?"
"Haha, two hundred thousand is expensive. Are you too petty?" Li Guoyao said with a smile.
"Isn't it expensive? According to me, two hundred thousand is a lot. I can buy tens of thousands of kilograms of grain!"
Li Guoyao said sternly: "It's really not expensive to sell a county for two hundred thousand yuan. You should know that these counties in southern Hebei are all big counties, the land of fish and rice. Now the autumn harvest has just been completed, and the people have a lot of rice, flour, grain and oil. "
"Since we entered the counties, we have suppressed the traitors, suppressed bandits, and recruited soldiers. We have not organized large groups of ordinary people to collect grains. That is to say, those people can collect grains as soon as they enter the counties. If a county does not collect millions of kilograms of grains, .Compared to millions of catties of grain, what does two hundred thousand oceans mean?"
"Besides, those guys are much better at collecting property than we are. Comparing our gains during this period, we can see that this transaction is a sure profit for them. What reason do they have to refuse?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Zhanwu sighed and said: "The people will suffer in this way. The national army comes to collect grain once, and when the Japanese army comes back, they have to pay it again. They pay agricultural taxes twice a year. How can the people bear it?" Get up!"
Li Guoyao also felt helpless and said: "These are troubled times. What we are doing now is to change this person's world. Don't worry, everything will be fine!"
"hope so!"
