"Dong De"

"Okay, arrange for me ten minutes." Li Delin nodded and ordered Wei Zhiming, the staff officer, to say.

"yes!"

After this press conference that Chinese and foreign journalists were eye-catching, Li Delin accepted a joint separate interview with reporters from China, the United States and the United Kingdom. China is a reporter from Ta Kung Pao, and American journalist Louis Teng, who is actually working for the Soviet Union and Russia, and also a photojournalist from the British Lutu Club.

"General Li, although you lost the battle for Teng County defense, I think you are still honored even if you are defeated. Your soldiers are all excellent soldiers. It's great. I was so moved that I cried at the press conference just now!"

"Thank you, beautiful Ms. Strong." Li Delin smiled slightly. He has always been gentle and tolerant to foreign friends who help the Chinese and a enthusiastic journalist friend.

"We only have ten minutes. I just communicated with my Chinese and British colleagues. In the next interview, I will ask you, the two of them will be supplemented at any time, so that they will be more efficient?" Strong showed a charming smile.

Obviously, if three people ask questions in such a joint interview, not only will Li Delin not be able to answer the questions thoroughly, but it will also waste time. As a result, it will be inefficient and even waste this valuable interview opportunity.

You know, they worked hard for a long time before Li Delin agreed to accept this interview.

Li Delin smiled slightly and nodded: "Ms. Strong speaks very well in Chinese."

"Then we'll start, General Li!" Strong couldn't help but smile happily, took out a notebook, opened it quickly, and started recording, "General Li, our first question is that although General Li announced the Sichuan Army in Teng County's breakthrough at the press conference just now, he did not describe too much about the details of the breakthrough. We want to know how they did it. Also, we heard that you sent a force to pick them up. I wonder if there is such a thing?"

"Is your reporter always so well-informed?" Li Delin asked with a smile.

"This seems to be no secret, right?" Strong was slightly stunned and then answered freely.

Li Delin also smiled. In the case of Teng County, a nearly disabled defender who was beaten and almost disabled would be unable to escape the Japanese army's pursuit even if he could break through.

Now they can return to the rear safely. If they have not sent troops to support them, those with a little bit of military knowledge will find this incredible.

Of course, from the beginning, neither Li Delin nor the commander-in-chief of the Fifth War Zone had denied this speculation from the outside world.

"you guess?"

Such diplomatic rhetorical answers have aggravated the outside world's suspicion and curiosity about this.

"Did General Li admit this?" asked the reporter from Ta Kung Pao.

"This involves military secrets and there is no way to tell."

The three reporters shook their heads helplessly. Although Li Delin did not admit it in person, they were just showing their verbal words after all. However, they could understand that Li Delin's strict confidentiality measures for this army were obviously extraordinary, so naturally the Japanese army could not obtain any information.

As a journalist or a war correspondent, they all know that some things cannot be reported before they are clear.

Otherwise they will be listed as unwelcome characters.

"General Li, I heard that some time ago, you were very dissatisfied with Chairman Jiang's transfer of the magical troops who broke through Nanjing from the war zone. Do you think he is weakening the strength of your war zone?"

"Haha, Ms. Strong, your problem is suspicious of being solicited." Li Delin laughed.

"General Li, I have no intention!"

"I know, you Americans are straightforward and ask what you ask. Regarding the transfer of the Honorary First Division back to Wuhan for rest and rest, this is a collective decision by the Military Commission. This is not the final decision by Mr. Jiang alone, but I personally reserve my opinion. Ms. Strong has the opportunity to go back to Wuhan. You can interview the Commander Leng Feng of the Honorary First Division. He is a very thoughtful young general."

"He is my next target!"

"Oh, is that so, he will be very happy to know the news." Li Delin raised his head and smiled.

"General Li, many people know that you are a staunch anti-Japanese general. I really want to know what attitude do you have towards the future of China and Japan?"

"China will win!"

"In the Sino-Japanese War, only the people are in trouble. Didn't they have the opportunity to sit down and negotiate?" The British Reuters reporter couldn't help asking.

"That depends on whether the Japanese government faces the mistakes it has made, is willing to correct them, and gives reasonable compensation to our country?" Li Delin said.

"Compensation, General Li, under the current situation, do you still want to get Japan to compensate?"

"Can they invade our territory and kill our people just admit their mistakes and failures, and can they escape unscathed?" Li Delin asked bluntly, "If the invasion occurred in your UK, would you agree?"

The female reporter from Reuters suddenly turned red with a flushing face. She asked this question a little rudely, with a hint of the arrogance of the British Empire.

In fact, Li Delin also knew that negotiation is not one of the options. It is actually a strategy to trade negotiations for time and accumulate strength.

When your strength is not as good as the other party, it is useless to rely on your blood and energy alone, but your attitude must be expressed.

On Weishan Island.

"Have the Japanese army not moved today?"

"No, but the Japanese army is repairing the Beisha River railway bridge and mobilizing at least a thousand engineers. It is expected that in three days, the railway bridge on the Dongsha River will be temporarily restored and opened to traffic."

"It seems that the Japanese army is very eager to go south!" Leng Feng nodded. If it were just to stabilize the front line in front of him, the Japanese army would not need to repair a railway bridge so vigorously. It is obvious that they hope that after the railway was built, they would use the railway to transport materials to the front line to ensure the subsequent military supply.

After all, this is too slow for road transportation, and the transportation efficiency is far inferior to that of railways. The infrastructure level in China is still too different from that of Japan.

This also restricted the advancement of the Japanese mechanized corps.

It sounds like lagging behind may not be all bad, and this can only be a spiritual victory method.

"Where is this boy Liang Dong?"

"Dazhuzhuang in Pingyi."

"Is there a brigade of the Sichuan Army stationed in Pingyi?" Leng Feng asked.

"Yes, it is the 366th Brigade of the 122nd Division of the Sichuan Army, and the brigade commander Tong Cheng. This brigade has only one regiment, with a total strength of less than 2,000 people. The Japanese army had not suffered losses in the battle before, but they were blocked by the Japanese army and could only retreat to Feixian and Linyi. Pingyi had been occupied by the Japanese army." Long Yingqin said.

"Master, can you call Liang Dong back? The Japanese army chasing them suffer heavy losses, which is no longer enough to pose no threat to them." Xie Jiyuan said.

"Don't be busy for now. If you have the chance to go deep into the enemy's belly, just touch the reality of the Japanese army." Leng Feng felt that it would not be very meaningful to call Liang Dong back at this time.

"But they have four or five hundred people, and the target is too big. Once discovered by the Japanese army, we will have no way to rescue him?" Xie Jiyuan said worriedly. After all, the soldiers who went out this time were all from his own secret service regiment.

He is a soldier who feels sorry for himself.

"Tell Liang Dong, avoid the Japanese army and break it into pieces. His target is Qingcheng!" A light flashed in Leng Feng's eyes. He finally understood what he wanted just now.

"Qingcheng!" Xie Jiyuan exclaimed in dismay.

"That's right, the Japanese would never have thought that we not only want to annihilate his main division, but also want to attack Qingcheng." Leng Feng said.

"Master, you have too much appetite, right?"

"I know that I have to eat one bite at a time, but before eating, I always have to empty my stomach. Otherwise, if the dishes come on this table, I will be full after eating a few bites, which is a loss."

"What the teacher's seat means is not now, but in the future?"

"Anyone who plans and then moves, we can't be passively beaten. Even if we can't reverse the trend, we have to give Japan a little color and consume his war potential." Leng Feng sneered.

"If the Japanese army exerts its national strength, then we will not be able to block the Japanese army's troops at all."

"The Japanese never regarded us as their number one enemy. Its number one enemy is the Soviet Union. Hundreds of thousands of Kwantung troops are stationed in our northeast. Who are they guarding against?"

"He ordered Liang Dong to choose a capable team to go to Qingcheng. His mission was to find out the situation of the Japanese army in Qingcheng. The remaining people were left to Yang Rui to lead and return by detour through Linyi."

"yes!"

"Who will take Liang Dong to Qingcheng when he goes to Brigade 40?"

"Isn't there any deputy brigade commander Dai Xu?" Leng Feng said, "Dai Xu is a good soldier. Don't worry. It would be great if you find him a partner."

"Who is the right one?"

"How about that Guo Xing?" Leng Feng raised his head slightly.

"Master, is that the man from Duke De?"

"Dongren, who is Degong?" Leng Feng asked back.

"this"

Xie Jiyuan was a little worried about Leng Feng's open poaching behavior. After all, this was an offensive thing, but his boss seemed to care nothing at all.

"Old Xie, don't worry. If I value Duke De, it would be too late to be happy." Leng Feng explained with a smile.

"Happy?"

Leng Feng shook his head. Leng Feng seemed to be poaching, but why didn't Li Delin want to install one or two important eyeliners in the Honor Division?

This is a good thing that hit it off. Leng Feng has talent and Chief Li has eyeliner. As for who Guo Xing is in the end, it depends on everyone's means of using people.

After Liang Dong led the detachment to escape the Japanese army's tracking, he did not immediately follow the retreat route, but detoured northward, and walked around for a while, entering Pingyi.

The troops were temporarily resting in a small mountain village.

After all, long-distance raids, combat and later retreat cover consumed a lot of physical strength and energy, and Iron Man could not bear it anymore.

"What does the Master say? Let's go back immediately?"

"No, Master asked me to take some of the people to Qingcheng with you, and the rest of them are Yang Rui and Guo Xing leading the detour to Linyi back." Fang Xiaoyang personally translated the telegram.

"What are you doing when you go to Qingcheng?"

"The master didn't say anything, should there be any important tasks?" Fang Xiaoyang couldn't figure it out either.

"That means, we are going to divide the troops, too?" Liang Dong said with a headache.

"I'm afraid it's true!"

"Call Lao Yang and Guo Xing over, let the four of us discuss what to do next?" Liang Dong rubbed his temples and ordered a soldier.

"Qingcheng, what do he want Qingcheng's information to do?" Li Delin said strangely.

"I don't know either, but we don't have much information about Qingcheng here, and Chairman Chen should have a lot of information on him. But if we ask for information about Qingcheng, will Chairman Chen give it?"
