Chapter 87 The Half City Plan

When the 41st Division had just entered the city, someone came over and recommended himself.

When Meng Xiang saw him standing in front of his temporary command department with a chubby sweat, holding his self-recommendation book, he couldn't help but think of the scene where he was recruiting everywhere before. He felt soft and gave him a chance to interview.

"The student's surname is Tang, his name is Qian, his courtesy name is Yaoshi, a native of Shaoxing, and he visited the adults!" He bowed and said that the adults were shocked.

What era is this? Is it called an adult? Is this person sick?

"Sir, I'm in danger!" Meng Xiang laughed out loud. Such clips often appear in the Three Kingdoms.

Pharmacist Tang ignored it and took out a paper fan, shook it on his own, and from time to time he touched the sparse beards on his chin.

"Shaoxing Master!" These words suddenly appeared in Meng Xiang's mind.

However, this set seems to be outdated, right?

Meng Xiang still smiled and kept looking at Pharmacist Tang. Pharmacist Tang was calm and picked up the tea that the rabbit brought over and sipped it gently.

The two of them sat there for a long time, and finally Meng Xiang shook her head and said, "I don't know, why am I in danger?" Although it was funny, Meng Xiang was still a little curious.

"Han Fuju's 100,000 troops can't defend the Yellow River. Can you just one Class C division defend?" Tang Pharmacist stopped the paper fan and asked in his eyes.

"Sometimes, you have to defend it if you can't defend it!" Meng Xiang didn't dare to speak loudly, and he himself was a little confused. The more than 100,000 Japanese troops heading south were indeed not something he could resist with just one division.

"The Yellow River is absolutely unblockable!" Tang Yaoshi shook the handle of the fan and said, "But I can defend Jinan City!"

"Oh?" Meng Xiang said in surprise. No matter whether this person is a liar or not, this person said that he would defend Jinan City without knowing the specific strength of the Pioneer Army. It would be okay to listen to it.

"How do you want to guard?" Meng Xiang asked.

Seeing that Tang Yaoshi's fan opened again, he thought Tang Yaoshi would be more reserved. Unexpectedly, Tang Yaoshi said directly: "Water flows with the flow, people follow the flow!"

Before Meng Xiang frowned, he said again: "The Japanese pirates want to go south to join forces, and the Jinpu Railway, which is convenient for transportation, will inevitably compete for Jinan, and Jinan is naturally a must-have land, and it is impossible to stop it directly." He glanced at Meng Xiang, who frowned and listened to the argument, and said:

"Give up the Yellow River Defense Line, give up Jinan Station, give up half of Jinan, and guard half of the city."

"Defend half of the city?" Meng Xiang heard the trick for a moment.

"Yes! Let the enemy go south and fight against Han Fuju and the tiger's sight above, so that you can relieve the personal harm of the Lord!" Tang Pharmacist pointed his left hand and said.

Meng Xiang suddenly broke out in a cold sweat. He has always kept away from all domestic forces. It might be okay when it was unknown before, but at this time, as a small warlord force, he had to straighten out these relationships.

According to the information obtained by Meng Xiang, since learning that the Japanese army had retreated to the Yellow River, Han Fuju stopped and stationed in Tai'an. If he was defeated, it would be another matter, but if he defended Jinan City, he would be afraid that he would immediately go to Jinan City. As for peanuts, he was even a veteran in picking fruits in the political arena.

What should I do then? Should I start fighting directly? Meng Xiang felt that he was not ready for a civil war during the War of Resistance.

Today, something that I have always avoided in my heart was suddenly broken by Tang Yaoshi.

"I am afraid that the Japanese will harm the people more!" Meng Xiang knew that letting the enemy go south would reduce the pressure on the vanguard army, and could even defend half of the Jinan city without losing it, but he still couldn't accept the idea of ​​ignoring the enemy.

"The people? To harm the people? If you can't defend Jinan City, the people will be harmed at that time. Besides, if you defend half of Jinan City, you will not lose your reputation, and you can continue to harass the Japanese army, so that they dare not go south in large numbers. Which one is the lesser of the benefits? Which one is the more important?" Tang Pharmacist gently waved his fan and sneered.

After a long silence, Meng Xiang suddenly asked, "Why do you want to help me?"

Tang Yaoshi stopped slinging and stared at Meng Xiang's eyes and said, "My parents and first wife were both killed in Nanjing. Their only children were born to the vanguard army and escaped. They had no choice but to repay them, and they were willing to serve under the curtain!"

"What else?" I promised the simple life-saving grace, which was almost extinct in later generations, and Meng Xiang would not believe it easily.

"The Pioneer Army has great potential!" Tang Pharmacist chuckled, shook the paper fan, but his eyes were looking at Meng Xiang without blinking.

"Okay! I will rely more on Mr. Tang's help in the future!" Meng Xiang also smiled.

He is now short of talents, with the loyalty of the base and clone soldiers, and he has the most stable team, but the stereotyped clone soldiers lacks performance skills on a larger stage. He needs more talents to build a new power system.

"Teacher Meng!" Someone shouted outside the door. Meng Xiang knew that it was Fan Zhong who came with the 41st Division. With the recommendation of everyone, he now serves as the Chief of Staff of the 41st Division.

Fan Zhong pushed the door directly into the door, saw someone, and swallowed what he was about to say. Fan Zhong couldn't see much of the scholarly anger that Zhao Shuxing said was about to be angry. Since the massacre in Nanjing began, he hid alone in the house and did not come out for seven days. After coming out, he was extremely weak and burned the literary drafts he had accumulated and sweared in public: "If you don't drive away the Japanese, you will never talk about literature!" Without the mouth of the hanging river when talking about literature, he looked much silent every day. Even when talking about military affairs, he could not see his super saliva. All that was left was speech that was directed towards the key points and silent thinking.

"Owner!"

"I have a plan! I can hurt the Japanese!" Fan Zhong didn't say much, and directly took out his plan and handed it to Meng Xiang.

Meng Xiang took it over and looked quietly for a while, then suddenly smiled and said, "This is a human flesh grinder!"

Fan Zhong nodded directly.

"It's also defending half of the city, defending half of Jinan City?" Meng Xiang smiled even happier.

Fan Zhong glanced at Tang Yaoshi with a little surprised expression. Meng Xiang said "Yes again". Someone must have made the same suggestions.

"It is also the main force of the Japanese to go south? Mr. Tang said the same thing!" Meng Xiangwang looked at Tang Pharmacist and smiled. Tang Pharmacist still smiled without saying a word.

Fan Zhong was silent for a moment and spoke: "Continuously threatening the Jinpu Railway, making the Japanese dare not put all their troops in Nantou. They defended half of the city, built this half of the city into a human flesh grinder, and continuously brought the Japanese in to consume little by little."

"Yes, as long as the fish cannot take off the hook, it will be tortured until it is exhausted and caught by obediently." Tang Pharmacist next to him clapped his hands and praised.

One of the two people values ​​the result and the other pays attention to the process, but the general idea is to let Meng Xiang occupy half of the city.

"Okay! Just follow this half-city plan!" Meng Xiang finally made up his mind, "But before that, I need a little more time!"

He needs more time, and in a few more days, he can build the base. As long as he has the base in hand, the half-city plan has absolute guarantees.

Seeing the look of both of them being surprised, he hurriedly explained: "It may take several days for a batch of goods and personnel to arrive, and our strength will increase greatly by then."

Fan Zhong knew as soon as he heard this was the organization Huang Huamin introduced to him, so he didn't say much.

Tang Yaoshi's eyes lit up when he heard this, but he didn't ask too much. He just smiled and said, "Abandoning the Yellow River, you don't give up at once, you can let go slowly. Dragging it to the city of Jinan, there should be no big problem for more than five or six days! But," he said, looking at Meng Xiang and said, "It just seems that the Japanese pirates have not made any big moves these days? Could it be... something happened? How are you fighting in the Yellow River?"

Meng Xiang smiled bitterly and told everything about that day.

As soon as he finished speaking, Pharmacist Tang shook his head repeatedly.

"It's a bit inappropriate! Such a record should be widely publicized." Tang Pharmacist continued to tilt the paper fan lightly,

"I guess the Japanese cannot figure out your background, so they are a little slow. Only by hyping can the people have confidence in you and some work can be carried out! hyping, the Japanese cannot figure out your background. Others dare not act rashly before joking.

There are many false war results everywhere. In some places, if you kill more than a dozen people, you dare to report thousands. There are only more than two thousand people. I don’t know if others believe it or not? There are also those who report more people when they are injured. One to one is a great victory. After reporting the victory, you will ask for officials and military pay. This is the first time I have seen you like a commander who never pays money. You have to take money even if you have money!"

Fan Zhong next to him was the first time he heard about it. He couldn't help but look at Meng Xiang up and down. Only when he saw it made Meng Xiang feel terrified, then he said, "Wang Huamin always said that you have a base, and it turns out that way, I, the chief of staff, don't even know if you have a tank chariot."

"You hid in the house and didn't come out as soon as you came back. It's not that I won't say anything!" Meng Xiang explained hurriedly. Some things really cannot be explained, so he can only try to wipe them over.

"If you really have such strong strength, then this half-city plan must be planned again!" Fan Zong nodded and stopped pursuing it. He was about to pick up the plan and paint it, but he immediately put it down and asked, "Will the strength be stronger after the new goods arrive?"

Meng Xiang nodded.

“How much equipment?”

Meng Xiang couldn't help but feel embarrassed.

"How many people? How many artillery? How many tanks? And, do you seem to have planes?" Fan Zhong asked continuously, and the pharmacist Tang next to him also raised his ear and listened carefully.

"There are many. I'll go back and ask, and list the specific number for you to see!" Meng Xiang had to use the delay tactic. These data are changing every day, so how to calculate it can only be roughly estimated to be in advance.
