"Old Li, you were wrong." Ding Wei said with a smile, "This is not a question of how the Jinsui Army can get through, but whether they have the courage to get through? Does the Jinsui Army really dare to leave western Jin?"

Kong Jie said: "This is called toad yawning, what a big sigh."

Wang Ye smiled and said, "I'm talking about the three leaders. It's too much for you to say that. No matter what, they are the commander-in-chief of the Second World War Zone. You are too embarrassed to give face."

"Face?" Li Yunlong said, "Face is earned by oneself, not given by others."

"That's it." Kong Jie also said, "Just because of the dirty things Yan Xishan did to our Eighth Route Army behind his back, we were already giving him face if we didn't turn against him on the spot."

Ding Wei said, "Xiao Wang, what do you mean?"

Wang Ye smiled and said, "I think Chief Yan should give him the face."

"Give me a fart." Li Yunlong said, "I won't let anyone go, but I won't return the equipment. I want to see what else can Yan Laoxi do?"

Kong Jie said: "That's right, if you have the ability, send troops to fight."

Ding Wei heard Wang Ye’s implicit voice and pondered: “Xiao Wang, are you talking about releasing the prisoners?”

"Yes." Wang Yexin said it was Ding Wei. It was obviously a deeper level of problem than Li Yunlong and Kong Jie. He also said, "Releasing the prisoners will not only give Chief Yan a face, but also allow the food of the Shanxi-Sui Army's unique brigade to be consumed faster, so that the Only brigade can get out of northwest Shanxi earlier!"

"Oh, Xiao Wang, that's what you mean." Li Yunlong also reacted.

Kong Jie also said: "Xiao Wang, you said that, this prisoner really has to be released back."

After saying this, he turned his head and said to Guan Dashan: "Old Guan, notify Xie Baoqing to release the person."

...

In the evening of that day, the only brigade of the Shanxi-Suizhou Army was in Heyuan County.

Fang Ligong walked in with a dark face and reported: "The people in the county town have already started to make trouble. We said that our only brigade ignored the lives and death of the people and shave all the grain in the grain store."

"It's outrageous. Isn't this aversion to black and white?" Chu Yunfei said angrily, "It was clearly done by the Eighth Route Army!"

Speaking of this, Chu Yunfei said sternly again: "By the way, I forgot that the Communist Party has always been good at creating public opinion, distorting black and white, and distorting public opinion are their expertise."

Fang Ligong said: "This wave of public opinion may not be that simple."

"Hmm?" Chu Yunfei's expression condensed and he said in a deep voice, "What does it mean?"

Fang Ligong said: "According to the investigation, there are gentry from the city involved."

Fang Ligong actually gave Chu Yunfei a lot of face, because this wave of public opinion really has nothing to do with the Communist Party, it was completely secretly promoted by the families of more than a dozen detained gentry and wealthy families.

Their intention was to put pressure on Chu Yunfei.

"Are they crazy?" Chu Yunfei said furiously, "Help the Communist Party shake the flag and shout?"

Fang Ligong sighed and said, "The hike, otherwise we will release the remaining gentry first? No matter what, we have raised a thousand dans of food, and now there are only five thousand people left in the entire brigade. It is a little saving, which is almost enough to eat for a month. With this month's buffer, we can slowly find ways to solve the difficulties."

Chu Yunfei said silently. Thinking about it carefully, there seemed to be no better choice than letting go.

Chu Yunfei said at the moment: "Forget it, let's donate some more food symbolically and then release it."

"The wise man in the voyage." Fang Ligong was overjoyed when he heard this, and turned around and was about to walk out. However, at this moment, three dusty officers quickly stepped in.

"Brigate, Chief of Staff!"

Three officers screamed and shouted when they came in.

Chu Yunfei and Fang Ligong looked closely, but found that it was Wu Ziqiang, the commander of the first regiment, Wan Quance, the commander of the second regiment, and Liang Guoping, the commander of the second battalion of the Mountain Artillery.

"Captain Wu?!"

"Captain Wan?!"

"Battleman Liang?!"

Chu Yunfei was really surprised now.

Fang Ligong was also sincerely happy.

In any case, Wu Ziqiang, Wan Quance and Liang Guoping are all four powerful generals under Chu Yunfei. One loss of these four people is a great loss for the Unique Brigade.

Fortunately, all four of them returned safely.

"We have let you down."

"We are embarrassing you."

But Wu Ziqiang and the other two began to wipe their tears.

"It's good to come back." Chu Yunfei hurriedly said, "It's good to come back."

Wu Ziqiang said: "We just thought that we had not yet repay the cultivation of the voyage, so we endured humiliation and returned home, otherwise we would have committed suicide by drinking and committing suicide by drinking."

"Don't say stupid things, it's no big deal to miss the front of the horse once."

Chu Yunfei said: "There is no ever-victorious general in this world."

Speaking of this, he asked again, "You are back, where are the other brothers?"

"Everything is back." Wu Ziqiang said, "As long as you are alive, you will be back."

"All are back?" Fang Ligong felt inexplicably nervous when he heard this, and asked again, "How many brothers are left?"

Wan Quance said: "The brothers are basically here. Except for the more than 200 brothers who died in battle, the rest are brought back by us even those who are seriously injured."

"It's good to come back, it's good to come back."

Chu Yunfei was so moved that he was inexplicably moved when he heard this.

Fang Ligong was mixed with joy and sorrow. It was a good thing for more than 4,000 veterans to come back, but this also meant that more than 4,000 more mouths had to eat. Originally, the military ration that could barely be eaten for one month could only be eaten for half a month.

Chu Yunfei said again: "By the way, has Xie Baoqing returned the weapons and equipment?"

"No." Wu Ziqiang said, "Xie Baoqing said that he just wanted to repay the new second regiment commander Kong Jie, otherwise he would not have let anyone go at all. As for returning our weapons and equipment, it is impossible."

"Damn it!" Chu Yunfei said with a hatred, "A mere bandit dares to be so arrogant."

Fang Ligong was afraid that Chu Yunfei would make another mistake in his anger, so he ruined his only family background. He immediately persuaded him: "If you can't bear it, you will be confused by the big plan. Use tolerance."

Chu Yunfei breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I know."

After a pause, Chu Yunfei continued: "But fortunately, the weapons and equipment that were eliminated from last time were still in the armory. Although there was not much ammunition, it could be used at least."

Fang Ligong said: "The biggest problem now is not weapons and equipment, but military rations."

After pausing, Fang Ligong said again: "Our existing military ration is only enough for half a month. If we cannot raise military rations within half a month, or if the supplies from the superior department cannot be transported, we may go hungry."

"Don't think about raising military rations." Chu Yunfei said in a deep voice, "The county town has no surplus grain anymore. Sending troops to conquer grain may not necessarily lead to levying food, and it is easy to be attacked."

Chu Yunfei finally learned from his mistakes and gained wisdom.

I know that sending troops out to conquer grain will be attacked by bandits.
