Chapter 585: When to fight and how to fight is up to us to decide, this is a prerequisite!
Niutouling, the temporary base of Yamamoto's special forces team.
"General Kagesa, I didn't expect that you could find this place and bring me a surprise. I want to know what Your Excellency the General wants. I don't believe that Your Excellency the General has no requests! I hope that Your Excellency the General will tell you in advance if you have any requests, and don't let me guess. What do you think?" Yamamoto Ikki asked directly without beating around the bush.
General Yingzuo really didn't expect Yamamoto Ikki to be so straightforward. This was actually exactly what he wanted. He was very annoyed by the fake flattery he usually gave to others. He immediately said, "I'm interested in the drug production line of the Independent Regiment, especially the two life-saving drugs they produce. They sell very well both domestically and internationally. Just give me a production line of each, and I'll be satisfied."
Yamamoto Ikki knew that General Yingzuo would ask for a lot, but he didn't expect that his mouth would open wider than a hippopotamus. He said sarcastically, "General Yingzuo, two pharmaceutical production lines are like two hens that lay golden eggs. Don't say that I don't have the authority to make the decision. Even if I could make the decision, I can't promise you two pharmaceutical production lines. The support you give is not worth the price. Just make a price that you and I can accept!"
General Kagesawa certainly knew that the price he had just offered was very high, and he did it on purpose in order to make Yamamoto Ikki accept his next offer.
"Yamamoto, two pharmaceutical production lines are indeed too difficult for you to manage, and it is difficult for you to make the decision. However, you can still make the decision on one production line. After all, it is easy for the production line to be damaged during the battle. I believe you understand what I mean!"
Yamamoto Ikki nodded to show that he understood, but he did not agree directly. Instead, he calculated the gains and losses in his mind. For this action, he could be said to have gambled everything. If he could not get enough benefits for himself, then there was really no need for him to take this risk.
"General Yingzuo, I can agree to your conditions, but you have to guarantee that the information is true. Otherwise, no matter how much I promise you, I won't be able to do it!"
General Kagesawa nodded in agreement. He knew very well that if Yamamoto Ikki's action failed, no matter how much he wanted, he would not be able to get it in the end.
"Zhu Ziming, tell Colonel Yamamoto the intelligence you got. Be sure to tell him in detail, and don't leave anything out, so as not to affect Colonel Yamamoto's judgment."
Hearing someone calling him, Zhu Ziming quickly responded, ran over in a hurry, nodded and said: "General Yingzuo, Colonel Yamamoto, I am Zhu Ziming, a soldier in the security department of the independent regiment under Li Yunlong. I believe that the colonel should have heard of me."
"I followed General Yingzuo's orders and successfully infiltrated two intelligence teams in the Zhaojiayu base. I ordered them to go into silence. Now it's time to activate them. Three days ago, I successfully woke them up."
"I learned several important pieces of information from them. Let me explain them in detail. The first piece of information is about the summer harvest in the Zhaojiayu base. In order to rush to harvest and plant, the Zhaojiayu base is very busy. The people are busy harvesting wheat and irrigating the fields. This gives us an opportunity to sneak into the Zhaojiayu base without anyone noticing."
"The second piece of intelligence is about the three fortresses standing at the entrance of the Zhaojiayu base. The defensive forces inside have not been weakened much. There are three battalions of troops stationed in each fortress. If you want to launch a surprise attack on the three fortresses, the chances of success are very small."
"The third piece of information is that Li Yunlong and Zhao Xiuqin from Zhaojiayu are very likely to be married. We can start with Zhao Xiuqin to force Li Yunlong into the trap we set up in advance!"
"The fourth piece of information is that the famous university student has been sending people to search for the whereabouts of Xie Baoqing of Heiyun Village for some unknown reason. We need to pay close attention to this matter."
"The fifth piece of intelligence is that the monthly production capacity of the Independent Regiment Arsenal has increased to 39 aircraft, which is double the capacity two months ago. The most important thing is that there is news that there may be an oil field in the Zhaojiayu base. Once Li Yunlong solves the fuel crisis, his strength will explode by leaps and bounds. We must nip the danger in the bud in advance!"
"The sixth piece of intelligence is that the nearly 5000 million yuan worth of property seized by Li Yunlong from Taiyuan City has been successfully transported to the Zhaojiayu base. My people have inquired several times and have not found the hiding place of the money. However, we have also discovered a new situation, that is, someone is secretly doing business with Li Yunlong. Due to the high level of confidentiality, my people have not found out who is doing the reselling business."
Yamamoto Ikki did not expect that Zhu Ziming's methods were so powerful. Each of these six pieces of information was useful. He finally understood why General Yingzuo had to take Zhu Ziming away when he left last time. He was afraid that General Yingzuo had been planning this a few months ago.
"General, the information provided by Zhu Ziming is very valuable. I will first send a small team to sneak into the Zhaojiayu base to investigate the situation. After confirming that the information is true, I will immediately take action. As for the reward that General needs, I can decide and agree to it!"
General Yingzuo did not expect to achieve his goal so quickly, and he was completely relieved. He did not want to use Zhu Ziming's card unless it was absolutely necessary. Once such a card was used, it must bring him the greatest benefit. Now was the best time to use it. If he missed this best time, this card might be worthless.
Li Yunlong didn't know that Yamamoto Ikki had targeted him again, but even if he knew about it now, he probably didn't have time to care about it. The telegram for help sent by Chu Yunfei made him feel very upset. He really couldn't make a decision, so he had to contact Lin Zhenhua, Zhao Gang and others to hear their opinions.
After contacting Lin Zhenhua and the others, Li Yunlong carefully read the telegram sent by Chu Yunfei from beginning to end, and said with a worried look on his face: "Chu Yunfei will never bow to me unless he has no other choice. This time Chu Yunfei has encountered real difficulties, and we must help him."
"We must not let the Japanese extract oil from the Shuiquan Oilfield. This is the consensus of all of us. The Jinsui Army's counterattack is to seize the Shuiquan Oilfield. However, the strength of the Jinshui Army is far inferior to that of the 12th Army. I was not optimistic about their counterattack from the beginning, but this battle must be fought, and our allies are watching from the sidelines."
"The college students have always said that if we want to get more support, we have to pay in return. There is no such thing as a free lunch! The action of the Shanxi Suiyuan Army is a token of surrender. Even the Shancheng area has given strong support. This matter involves the overall situation of the war of resistance. We absolutely cannot stay out of it. I mean to agree to Chu Yunfei's request and send an air force battalion to fight the devils and cover the Shanxi Suiyuan Army to take over Guxian County."
"Since I have made this decision, I have already considered in advance that the air force battalion may be wiped out in the next air battle, but we have to fight this air battle. As for sending armored forces to reinforce, that is simply impossible. It will take more than half a month to go back and forth. By the time our armored forces arrive, it will probably be too late!"
"But I didn't agree to it for nothing. With such a good opportunity, I can ask for a lot. Of course, I have to ask Chu Yunfei for something. What we lack most now is food. I plan to ask Chu Yunfei for 100 million catties of food and catties of copper. Chu Yunfei should be able to agree to this price. If the price is too high, even if Chu Yunfei agrees, I'm afraid he won't be able to give so many things."
Li Yunlong had a plan in mind and decided to take this opportunity to make Chu Yunfei pay a heavy price. Lin Zhenhua and the others didn't care much about it. One million kilograms of food would only be enough for the base to eat for one day, so the price was not high.
"Old Li, a total of one million catties of food is really too little. It would be fine if we change it to one million catties of food a day. What you asked for before was really too little. If we finally agree to Chu Yunfei, we will ask for it according to this price."
"In principle, I agree with the Air Force Battalion's deployment, but the scale of the deployment must be controlled. It's not that I have any ulterior motives, but we have to consider practical reasons. The air defense of our base mainly consists of two parts, one is fighter air defense, and the other is anti-aircraft artillery air defense. However, due to the previous air battles, our Air Force Battalion suffered very serious losses. The remaining fighters can only protect the safety of our base's airspace. Once the Japanese use incendiary bombs to attack our crops, it will seriously threaten the food supply of our base!"
"My opinion is to send half of the air force to Guxian for support, but we need the greatest battlefield autonomy. When to fight and to what extent we fight are all decided by ourselves. I don't want to put a tight ring on the pilots of our air force battalion."
"In order to avoid people thinking that we are fighting this battle to cheat for food, no matter how many days the air force battalion is dispatched, when the final settlement is made, if it exceeds 15 days, it will be calculated as 15 days. If it is more than ten days but less than 15 days, it will be calculated as ten days. If it is less than ten days, it will be calculated as one day. In this way, the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army will not suffer any loss, and we will also get a little compensation!" Lin Zhenhua said in a light tone.
