The Americans stopped the attack, but what they didn't know was that their speculation had become a reality, and now they were deviating from their basic core content. The 18th Army had appeared in front of them.

Yao Ziqing was also a little surprised when he saw the retreat of the First Land Division. You must know that he thought the First Land Division was going to attack, but he didn't expect that they were so cowardly and retreated from his side.

Yao Ziqing's purpose is nothing else, but in fact, it is to eliminate the First Land War Division and their reinforcements, and strive to open up a show on the northern battlefield of North Korea. At that time, he can go south to attack the United States and defend China from the north.

However, Yao Ziqing's new appointment has been completed. As the commander of the new Second Army of the 18th Corps, Yao Ziqing felt that his pressure was really great. Although his Fourth Division was still within his jurisdiction, there were still two divisions?

So Yao Ziqing was a little hesitant, but when he sent a power to Wang Mingyu, Wang Mingyu would just let him hold on. If he was sure, he would destroy the First Land War Division and completely destroy the Americans' fighting will.

If the First Division of the Land War, which they won a great victory this time, is destroyed by their own people, then it is certain that they are absolutely unsure of confronting the 18th Corps this time, and they are already at a disadvantage psychologically.

Anyway, the Americans have retreated now, and Yao Ziqing has nothing to worry about. Wang Mingyu has given him autonomy, so what he has to discuss is how to deal with the Americans and even eliminate their problems.

This problem seems difficult to deal with, but in fact it is not the case. If Yao Ziqing makes up his mind, he will lose some troops at most. If he works with the Ninth Corps, it will be easier then.

Song Shilun and others were having a meeting in the office. At this moment, Song Shilun had arrived at the north shore and was in charge of the 20th Army's barracks. Their next plan was not to wait for the Americans to come.

Yao Ziqing sat on the lower head of Song Shilun. Although Song Shilun wanted Yao Ziqing to be the top, Yao Ziqing was not the kind of person who was indifferent to the superiority and inferiority, nor was he the kind of person who took credit for himself, which made Song Shilun very satisfied.

Song Shilun smiled and said, "Captain Yao, is there anything important to call us here? Or does Deputy Commander Wang have any new instructions to give us?"

Yao Ziqing smiled and said, "There are instructions, but it is for me personally. But it also has something to do with Commander Song and the entire Ninth Corps, so I call Commander Song to come over and discuss it!"

Song Shilun said: "The arrival of your 18th Army has stabilized the situation on the front line and gave us a chance to breathe. And after today's day, the forces of almost two divisions under Commander Yao have entered the two main positions of our army in the north and south."

Yao Ziqing nodded and said, "I have already gone to see it. I am very grateful for the commander's hospitality, but the commander doesn't have to be so polite. To be honest, I know that the Ninth Corps is not rich..."

Song Shilun smiled and said, "Are we rich or not? Can we still bear to entertain a meal for brothers?" Song Shilun felt that Yao Ziqing looked down on him when he said this.

Although this is the case, it is definitely a matter of whether you say it or not. It is precisely because of this that Song Shilun felt a little embarrassed, and Liu Fei and other soldiers below felt that they were blinded.

Yao Ziqing looked at the people's faces not very good, and he also knew that this sentence was a bit self-esteem, but this is indeed true, and Yao Ziqing also wanted to improve the food of these people.

Speaking of which, Yao Ziqing's food and canned food are still very sufficient, especially when Li Xianyu and the others removed the arsenal in Seoul and obtained a large amount of supplies, which basically disappeared.

Most of them are canned food, so in this case, the 18th Army also seems to be a bit rich and generous, but the Ninth Corps doesn't know that, and thinks he will take out the good ones for the 18th Army to eat.

People from the 18th Army still feel that the taste is not good. This is the reason why you do bad things with good intentions. Sometimes you want to please others, but you don’t get the recognition of others. Then this pleading will sometimes have a counterproductive effect.

Of course, Yao Ziqing and others were very grateful from the bottom of their hearts. Yao Ziqing said: "In fact, the reason why the Ninth Corps has relatively low combat effectiveness is many aspects. There must be problems with weapons and equipment, and there are many other problems. Many problems need to be solved, but I think what you need to solve the most is the problem of winter clothing."

Song Shilun said depressedly: "Oh, I'm going to tell the story of Commander-in-Chief Yao, we have applied to the commander-in-chief several times for this issue of winter clothing, but we also know that life in the country is not easy. We didn't even shout out!"

Yao Ziqing sighed and said, "This war is passive, and there is not as much preparation as possible. I heard that the Military Commission is preparing, but I can tell you good news. Comrade Wang Mingyu, commander of my 18th Corps, has asked his company to donate 150,000 sets of cotton coats, cotton pants and other essential items for winter. I mean, let the brothers persevere!"

Song Shilun was overjoyed when he heard this and said, "Take it serious? If this is the case, it can at least solve half of the pressure on the entire Korean battlefield. It's great!"

Yao Ziqing smiled and said, "It must be good, but it will be at least half a month before they send the equipment over, so this is not good."

Song Shilun frowned, but then Zhan Yan said, "Hey, I am a little greedy. If it weren't for Commander Wang's generosity, we wouldn't even nod to hope, right?"

Yao Ziqing said proudly: "I dare not tell you anything else. In fact, since the War of Resistance Against Japan, our commander has already given a lot of support to the country. If it weren't for us, our party would have been oppressed by the Soviet Communist Party International. Since the Battle of Wuhan, our commander took the time to go north to Yan'an and joined the Communist Party of China! At that time, our brothers also joined the Communist Party of China!"

Song Shilun was surprised and said, "What? You will join our party then? Then have you been lurking in the Kuomintang for a long time?"

Yao Ziqing said disdainfully: "Landing? Haha, our army commander disdained it at all. To be honest, when we were in the Kuomintang, do you think we needed to lurk? Especially later, my 18th Army had an army of 200,000. Not to mention the Kuomintang, even our party was actually the same. But neither our commander nor us had any ambitions, they just wanted to drive away the invaders!"

Song Shilun finally had a chance to solve his doubts, which was to ask all the doubts in his heart. In fact, this was also the result that the people present wanted to know. Song Shilun asked: "Then why didn't you join our party directly at that time?"

Yao Ziqing looked at Song Shilun in surprise and said, "I said Commander Song, it was the world of the National Government at that time. If we went to our side at that time, how many unnecessary debates would you cause? Maybe it would be a big hat to destroy the war of resistance and put it on our party. Do you think this is what you want to see?"

Liu Fei, who was standing beside him, asked, "Then why did you leave after fighting the Japanese? Could it be that you remember your old love? Unwilling to fight with the Kuomintang? Or do you want to see who won the world?"

Yao Ziqing was speechless, and this kind of thing could be said: "I have to admire your imagination. Haha, to be honest, our strength could completely control whoever wins and loses. But our commander-in-chief only said one thing: Chinese people are not interested in fighting Chinese people, and they don't want to participate. No matter who is right or wrong, this is always a contradiction within the Chinese. So he doesn't want to point his gun at his compatriots just after he slaughtered the Japanese."

Liu Fei said disdainfully: "But the Kuomintang does everything evil..."

Yao Ziqing snorted coldly and said, "It is good for the Kuomintang to do everything evil, but there are also good people in the political party that does everything evil, right? So even if we say this kind of thing, our commander will not participate."

Song Shilun said: "Then you wait for our Liberation War to win, but you are back. Isn't this something that makes people have to say? Haha, you are not afraid of saying something offensive. Many people say you are fencemen."

Yao Ziqing's face looked a little ugly, but he still explained: "Many things are not something you can imagine. When our commander was far away in the United States, he analyzed the situation from the perspective of the situation. Finally, he came to a conclusion that there might be a big war between China and the United States. As expected, it broke out not long after we came back. And what you don't know is, do you know how much money our commander spent to come back this time? You don't know!"

Song Shilun asked: "I heard that I have bought a lot of planes, tanks, and warships!"

Yao Ziqing said: "Many people think that our commander is the descendant of big capitalists, so he has money. But how much money can our commander's old man buy? I'm afraid it's not enough for us to fight against Japan. This money is earned by our commander himself, and they earn so-called imperialist money. Don't you think it's a very fun thing to use their money to fight them? And you so-called fencemen, haha, in fact, we can never come back this time. How good we are in the United States? Eat and drink all day long, but everyone chose to come back without hesitation. You don't even know that in order not to make Americans suspicious, our commander left his father, wife and son in the United States."

Everyone was shocked. They didn't expect that there was such an inside story in this. They were actually quite complaining about the 18th Corps, but now it seems that they not only have nothing to do, but also contributed so much to the country.

Song Shilun said with some emotion: "It seems that we were all wrong before. Alas, we have never had contact with your 18th Corps. We all have some ideas, but now we have contacted each other, you are all strong men!"

Yao Ziqing said: "Actually, I don't say this to everyone to feel that we have made a great contribution. It's just that I'm crying out for our commander. We don't say some things because we don't fight for anything, but some people think we are easy to bully."

Song Shilun said: "Well, some things still need to be argued. Although we cannot fall asleep on the credit book, we must also strive for the facts we should have."

Yao Ziqing said: "At that time, our commander said that although we do not participate in domestic wars, we can have another form of patriotism. At that time, our commander said that our party will eventually win regardless of whether we have or not. So he left with confidence. He said that our party was Shunyi and the public opinion. What kind of troops can win if such troops fail? So in the end we became such a result."

Song Shilun and others nodded in agreement. Yao Ziqing continued: "We are just changing our way of patriotism. The commander secretly hoarded a lot of talents in the United States and has brought them all back to the country. These talents will ultimately make their contribution to our country's national defense and economic construction. Don't underestimate these people. These people will be the core of our army, national defense and economic construction in the future. We can shorten our efforts for at least ten to twenty years."

Song Shilun and others nodded constantly. They had really wronged them before. Now that they have come into contact with each other and heard them say it, they realized that there are still many twists and turns in this.

So now they are very impressed by Wang Mingyu and others. Next, they will respect Wang Mingyu and others more. Once everyone gets the truth, they will definitely respect the 18th Corps and Wang Mingyu very much.

Yao Ziqing smiled and said, "Let's get back to the point. Our topic just now went a little off the line. What I mean now is that the number of our two divisions is quite large. Together, there are about 17,000 people. Each of our soldiers has two sets of cotton coats, which is our minimum standard. Now I decided to equip the remaining set of cotton coats for the soldiers of the Ninth Corps first. Although it is still a little worse, it is always better than not, right?"

Song Shilun was shocked. He came to help him fight. Not only did he want anything, but he also wanted to give him equipment now. You should know that adding icing on the cake is worse than giving timely help. Everyone understands this principle.

Song Shilun didn't know what to say, stood up and held Yao Ziqing's hand tightly, as if everything was indifferent. Yao Ziqing smiled and said, "Everyone is a soldier, everyone knows the hard conditions. All we can do is this. I hope everyone will not refuse." (To be continued)
