Chapter 752: Deal with them, I will be responsible if anything goes wrong
Headquarters of the Ninth War Zone.
Adjutant Li took the telegram from the communications director. After reading the content, he immediately turned around and went to the operations room not far away. In front of the sand table of the Ninth War Zone, he found Commander Bai who was discussing military intelligence with Chief of Staff Wu and others.
"Sir, the 74th Army has an urgent message: shortly after entering Shanxi, they were intercepted by the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army at a checkpoint."
The crowd discussing the situation suddenly fell silent.
The Ninth War Zone was still waiting for the 74th Army to enter Area for a fierce battle. But the Second War Zone unexpectedly came up with this.
Commander Bai finished reading the message, then casually put it down and said, "Reply to the 74th Army. If they encounter any interception, they will use the excuse of missing the opportunity to attack."
"Do you want to call the Second War Zone?" Chief of Staff Wu reminded after reading the telegram.
Commander Bai put his hands behind his back and shook his head. "Nothing to warn you about. This is all condoned and tacitly approved by the Second War Zone. Since Yan Xishan wants to make a scene, I'll fight him to the end."
At this point, he glanced at Adjutant Li and said, "Tell the 74th Army that if anything goes wrong, I will be responsible."
A point of conflict where tensions are high.
The battalion behind the special forces company also began to prepare for combat, and the anti-aircraft machine gun company behind it also mobilized three anti-aircraft machine guns to the front line.
Seeing the enemy's senior officers evacuating to the rear, the battalion commander of the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army standing in front of the checkpoint swallowed his saliva and said, "They are really going to attack! Report the situation to the regiment commander quickly."
It’s better not to rob. It’s obvious that the other party is not someone to be trifled with. Moreover, this army needs to return to the Ninth War Zone urgently. If they delay, it will be troublesome if they miss the opportunity to fight.
Captain Li once again received a telegram from the First Battalion.
The chief of staff read the message, thought for a moment, and said to him standing by the window, "You'd better get out of the way. A battalion plus a special forces company are preparing for an attack, and tanks and artillery have already entered their positions. I'm afraid they're not kidding us."
Captain Li didn't say anything, just played with the teacup in his hand. After a while, he stood up and walked to the window to look into the distance.
"late."
What do you say?
The Chief of Staff approached him and said, "The battle hasn't started yet. We can use this time to evacuate the troops ahead. We still have time for everything."
There's no time for that.
Captain Li glanced at him and said bitterly, "Do you think I can withdraw just because I want to?"
The Chief of Staff frowned, and Commander Li squeezed his hands. "This is no longer a contest between our vanguard and theirs, but a contest between the Central Army and our Shanxi-Suiyuan Army. Whoever gives in now will never be able to hold his head up again."
The game between Commander Yan and the Central Army has always been lively and colorful. Even when the 14th Corps was fighting in Shanxi, they were suppressed by Commander Yan.
On the surface, this was a small-scale conflict between the two armies, but in fact, it was a game between Commander Yan and the Shancheng side. Whoever retreated here would be far inferior to the other.
If you don't want to do it, then don't do it from the beginning. In this way, there will be no collision, but now.
It's really too late.
The Chief of Staff understood this, but he still reminded them, "The 74th Army is passing through Shanxi. This is an order from the theater headquarters. They need to go to the Ninth Theater Command as soon as possible. I'm afraid it's not appropriate for us to delay them here, otherwise we will miss the opportunity to fight."
"It's not us who missed the opportunity to fight. What does this have to do with us?" Captain Li sneered and said to the adjutant beside him, "Tell the first battalion commander not to be afraid. They are just trying to scare us."
Do they have the courage to start a war?
Time passed by little by little. Fang Shengli raised his wrist to check the time. Five minutes left.
Do we really have to fight back?
"Xiao Ya, are we really going to fight?" Fang Shengli came to Xiao Ya's side, looked at the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army in the distance and asked.
The uniforms of the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army were very different from those of the Central Army. The Central Army's uniforms were blue-gray, while the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army's uniforms were light blue. Furthermore, Yan Laoxi's thriftiness meant that the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army only wore cloth caps, not steel helmets.
"There's no news from the military yet," Xiao Ya handed the telescope to Takahashi beside her and asked.
Takahashi nodded. "Not yet, ma'am. Should I ask about the situation again?"
Xiao Ya waved her hand. "No need. The military should be reporting to the war zone and waiting for news. Tell the troops to prepare for battle."
"It's not appropriate." Sano Tadayoshi came to Xiao Ya. Even though he also wanted to fight, if he didn't receive the order to attack at this time, it would be suspected of provoking conflicts between the central army and the local areas, which would cause trouble for Zhou Weiguo.
Xiao Ya's lips curled up. "The conflict has already arisen. If we give in now, the Central Army will lose face. Instead of that, it's better to fight directly. Besides, the fault is not ours. I don't believe that the Second War Zone hasn't received any news from the headquarters."
If you receive the ball and still intercept it, that is your past.
"Okay." Fang Shengli nodded and patted his chest. "Then you can put the blame on me."
Just as she finished speaking, Tian Jing, who was in the radio vehicle behind her, came up to Xiao Ya and handed her a message: "Military headquarters, forwarding an urgent message to the war zone. If they are intercepted, they will be annihilated on the pretext of missing the opportunity to fight."
"Alright." Xiao Ya took the message, read it, and then handed it to Gao Qiaoyi. "Now that we have the Imperial Sword in our hands, we can launch our campaign with even more authority."
The words "launching the mission with a legitimate reason" made Fang Shengli feel that something was wrong.
"You're not planning to destroy his group, are you?" Fang Shengli asked tentatively.
Takahashi Kazuya thought this was the case. After all, he had followed the lady for so long, and he knew very well how she schemed against people, not to mention the senior military officials here.
He has been here for many days and has integrated into the community. The people here are all full of vigor and vitality. They are either scheming against others or trying to gain benefits from them.
There is a reason why Madam is like this.
"Since we're here, it's natural for us to bring some Shanxi specialties to the brothers in the Ninth War Zone." Xiao Ya turned her head and looked at Xiao Ye beside her and asked, "Don't you agree?"
Ono nodded. "That's right. It's a waste not to eat the fat meat that's delivered to your door."
"Then prepare to fight."
There really won't be a war?
The battalion commander had a vague feeling that something was really wrong. He had seen that the enemy's mortar artillery was already making adjustments, and the shells had been placed next to the artillery.
And in the farthest distance, there seemed to be several field guns that were also being adjusted.
"I always feel that something bad is going to happen." A company commander next to the battalion commander said nervously.
"Don't worry." The battalion commander said casually, and then added, as if feeling a lack of confidence, "The regimental commander said they don't dare to fight."
