The Yangquan Command of the National Salvation Army, because there is nothing to do, Yuan Shushan only gets up after the sun is at midnight every day.

After breakfast, I went to the regiment headquarters and nearby troops for a walk, and before dark, I returned to the regiment headquarters to continue sleeping.

Although everyone in the regiment knew that they were marginalized by the regiment commander and had no real power, they were labeled as a deputy regiment commander, and there was a war zone behind him to support him. So no one dared to be angry with him whether he went to the regiment headquarters or went to the army.

This is also the only place that Yuan Shushan deserves to be grateful for.

He took the initiative to ask the National Salvation Army to come over and was very confident when he set out.

After arriving at the National Salvation Army, I realized that the gap between ideals and reality was too big. In less than half a year, I squandered all my capital. Not only did I get nothing, but I also ended up being excluded and idle. Even the war zone was very disappointed with what he did. Since he was idle, I never took the initiative to contact him once.

Faced with such an ending, Yuan Shushan was very decadent and felt that he was finished.

After a month of confusion, he felt that he could no longer be so depressed, otherwise he would really become a useless person.

Taking advantage of the privileges of the National Salvation Army, no one dared to take care of himself. He spent two months visiting all the companies of the National Salvation Army and talking to all the cadres above the National Salvation Army.

The composition of the National Salvation Army is very complicated and cannot be monotonous. There must be officers who do not like Zhou Cheng.

Taking Zhou Cheng and replacing him and becoming the new commander of the National Salvation Army has become an unattainable dream for Yuan Shushan, and it will definitely not be realized in a short period of time.

Since this is the case, then let’s settle for the second best, no longer be as ambitious as when I first arrived at the National Salvation Army, and set an unattainable goal when I came up.

After thinking for a night, he decided that the National Salvation Army now develops a secret force that belongs entirely to him. It doesn’t matter if it’s weak at all. As long as he is no longer alone, someone will discuss things when encountering them.

The most important factor in developing strength is that people must have several officers who are completely loyal to themselves in their hands and secretly master several troops through them.

Do what you say, first talk to all the company-level cadres of the National Salvation Army as the deputy regiment commander, ask them what they think about the war zone and the National Salvation Army, select people who have prejudices on the National Salvation Army and Zhou Cheng, and develop them step by step into their own confidants!

The effect is very good. In more than two months, there were two deputy company commanders, four platoon leaders, and five deputy platoon leaders who completely defected to him. Each officer was able to take away at least one infantry squad's troops, which meant that he was finally no longer alone.

If you really encounter any unexpected situation, you can at least mobilize the troops of one company to protect yourself.

With soldiers in hand, Yuan Shushan has more confidence in doing things than before.

This period of time is obviously more active than before, and I have more times to and from the League headquarters every day.

Although he has no real power, he hides from himself in many major issues in the group.

But as long as you come to the League headquarters more often, you can always find out some useful information to you and learn about the latest situation of the independent group.

If you don’t come to the command center, you will know nothing about the situation of the command center.

If this continues for a long time, one day I will have the opportunity to gain real power and will not be able to make the right decision.

The Japanese sent someone to negotiate with Zhou Cheng, hoping to recruit the national rescue army.

Yuan Shushan must not have found such a confidential matter, but the sudden martial law in the command center still attracted his attention.

Although I can't figure out what happened to the command center, Yuan Shushan had a premonition that something big would definitely happen next in the National Salvation Army.

That night, he called his subordinate deputy company commander to his room. The two of them racked their brains to analyze the reasons for the sudden martial law in the command center, but no matter how hard they tried, they would get nothing in the end.

At one o'clock in the morning, the communications platoon leader Xue Ya suddenly knocked on the door and walked in with a anxious look on his face.

"Report to the commander, the war zone is extremely urgent, a secret message is specially given to you!"

After hearing this, Yuan Shushan was confused and realized that because the war zone had not sent him a telegram for a long time, a smile flashed quickly on his serious face, and he was very happy to shout: "Great, the war zone has not forgotten me!"

"Give me a telegram, I want to translate it myself..."

Ten minutes later, the surprise on Yuan Shushan's face was slowly replaced by shock. The moment he put down the telegram, a sudden enlightenment appeared on his face.

He looked at the inexplicable deputy company commander and said excitedly: "It's good news!"

"Deputy Company Commander Li, our opportunity is here. As long as we can seize the opportunity in front of us, we can not only replace it and become the new master of the National Salvation Army, but the war zone will also expand the National Salvation Army into a brigade. I will be the first brigade commander!"

"It's God really helping me. I said that as long as we don't give up and keep working hard, God will not leave us alone."

Yuan Shushan's words made the deputy company commander even more confused and asked quickly: "Sir, what opportunity? Could it be that this matter is related to the sudden martial law in the command center!"

Yuan Shushan refused to comment: "The war zone just received news. The Japanese sent someone to negotiate with Zhou Cheng, wanting to recruit the National Rescue Army, so that all of us can work hard for the Japanese and be traitors!"

"Although the first negotiation was not reached, Zhou Cheng gave the Japanese several conditions to join the Imperial Army? As long as the Japanese agreed to Zhou Cheng's conditions, Zhou Cheng would lead the National Salvation Army to join the Imperial Army and work hard for the Japanese from now on!"

Yuan Shushan believed in the war zone very much. After reading the secret telegram sent by the war zone, he believed it by 80% or 90%.

The deputy company commander sitting next to him showed a stunned and suspicious expression. He felt that the content of the telegram was too unbelievable, and frowned and asked, "Deputy Commander, could this be made wrong in the war zone!"

"The regiment commander beat the Japanese so ruthlessly. There are countless Japanese who died at his hands. They have long been listed as a major concern by the Japanese. The hatred between the two sides is not an exaggeration. How could such a person surrender to the Japanese as a traitor? He is not afraid that he will be killed by the Japanese after becoming a puppet army and be liquidated by the Japanese."

"I think anyone in the National Salvation Army may be a traitor, but the leader of the regiment cannot, and the Japanese will not allow the leader to work hard for them!"

Yuan Shushan also felt that the deputy company commander’s words were particularly reasonable.

Hurry up and read the telegram in your hand again.

But no loophole was found. Thinking of the sudden martial law at the command center, there were indeed outsiders entering and leaving the command center, and the concerns on their faces disappeared instantly. Seeing the deputy company commander answered firmly.

"I believe that the War Zone will definitely not joke with us for such a big thing. They must have obtained the evidence before they dare to send us this telegram."

"In addition to informing us of this situation, the war zone also let us seize this opportunity and take over the command of the National Salvation Army in one fell swoop. Even the order to remove the position of Commander Zhou Cheng and appoint me as the commander were sent together."

"The war zone also promised that as long as I complete the task smoothly and firmly take up the position of commander of the National Rescue Army, the war zone will immediately expand the National Rescue Army into a brigade and let me serve as the first brigade commander."

"Deputy Company Commander Li, I need your help."

"As long as I become the commander of the military brigade of saving the country, you will also rise with the flow of water."

"I can't guarantee the position of deputy brigade commander, and the position of a regiment commander can still be decided!"

When he said the last sentence, Yuan Shushan's face was already full of joy, his mouth was always on his face, and he was in a very good mood.

The deputy company commander was also very excited after listening to the analysis, staring at Yuan Shushan with his eyes lit up: "Sir, can I really be the commander of the regiment?"

Yuan Shushan nodded without hesitation: "Of course, as long as I become the commander of the military brigade of saving the country, the position of the commander under my command will definitely be yours!"

"You also know that I have only a few confidants in the National Salvation Army, and I am qualified to be a regiment commander. If you don't act like this, no one will be a regiment commander. We can't risk our lives to take over the National Salvation Army, and finally let an outsider be the regiment commander and secretly shoot me a black gun."

"Thank you for your trust, I will definitely work hard to help you become the brigade commander. What will we do next? Please give orders!"

"There are two things in total!" Yuan Shushan became fanatical as he spoke, as if he had seen himself sitting on the throne of the military commander who saved the country, with an excited command on his face.

"First understand the content of the negotiation between the Japanese and Zhou Cheng, and figure out the three conditions that Zhou Cheng had put for the Japanese:"

"Then reveal the fact that Zhou Cheng wanted to lead the National Saving Army to be a traitor."

"I believe that most of the soldiers of the National Salvation Army do not want to be traitors. They will definitely be indignant when they know that the regiment commander wants to surrender to the enemy. We will take the opportunity to win over them and unite them to resist Zhou Cheng."

"As long as we have the strength to fight against Zhou Cheng, the appointment and removal order in the war zone will become the last straw that crushes Zhou Cheng."

"At that time, most of the soldiers of the National Salvation Army will surrender to us because of the support of the war zone. Even if Zhou Cheng does not accept the orders of the war zone and insists on surrendering to the enemy, he will only take away a small part of the troops, and the main force of the National Salvation Army will still be firmly in our hands!"

When Yuan Shushan regained his fighting spirit and tried his best to fight for the brigade commander.

What he didn't expect was that the same telegram full of telegram codes also appeared in Zhou Cheng's hands, and it was sent by Xue Ya himself.

Because there is no password book, the communication system cannot be translated directly.

But this matter did not make Zhou Cheng difficult. He used the secret telegrams between Yuan Shushan and the war zone to translate half of the telegram code into text.

Although the content is not clear, the Japanese recruited the National Savior Army, negotiated the content, and joined forces with soldiers of the National Savior Army who did not want to be traitors, and replaced them... a few keywords were translated.

Zhou Cheng knew after a little analysis that the secret of the Japanese trying to recruit the National Rescue Army was leaked, and the war zone also wanted to use this matter to engage in a conspiracy.

Tang Yufeng also saw the purpose of sending this telegram in the war zone, and made a judgment after thinking about it: "The leader of the regiment, the United Nations Salvation Army did not expect the traitors of the National Salvation Army to replace us... and replace it... These words show that the war zone wants Yuan Shushan to replace us and take over the command of the National Salvation Army."

"I have to say that the war zone has chosen a good opportunity."

"If we really plan to surrender to the Japanese, at least two-thirds of the soldiers of the National Salvation Army do not want to be traitors."

"There is a war zone behind Yuan Shushan. If he spreads some rumors in the team, the soldiers will be pulled over to fight us head-on. As for replacing them, he will be the commander of the National Savior Army and calling us traitors, it will be natural to directly!"

Zheng Yunshan sneered and replied: "The war zone's wishful thinking is indeed very good, but they don't know that this negotiation is just a delaying strategy for us. We have never thought of joining the Japanese as traitors from the beginning."

"The battalion commander, deputy battalion commander, and regiment headquarters have communicated well, and they are even more clear about our actions. Yuan Shushan said below that there would be no deputy battalion or above cadre to follow him."

"As for the company commander and deputy company commander below, as long as we explain to all battalion commanders and deputy battalion commanders and let them explain to their company commanders and deputy company commanders, I believe that Yuan Shushan will not be able to pull a few people to follow him!"

Zhou Cheng thought for a moment and began to give orders: "Then this matter is settled!"

"Old Tang, you will go to the army yourself and inform all the regiment commanders and deputy regiment commanders of the regiment headquarters. You must also tell them to keep it confidential and no one can disclose it. Then let them explain their subordinates well. No matter what kind of rumors appear in the regiment, they must believe the regiment headquarters."

"As for Yuan Shushan to win over people, we can't do it too ruthlessly."

"There must be many shaken elements in the group who are not on us, so we just take this opportunity to identify them."

"In addition, in order to find out whether there are other means to deal with us in the war zone, Lao Tang, please find a way to arrange a few deputy company commanders to pretend to be dissatisfied with the regiment, gain Yuan Shushan's trust, and follow Yuan Shushan, so that we can figure out all Yuan Shushan's action plans in advance and prepare in advance!"

After hearing this, Tang Yufeng couldn't help but clap his hands and applauded: "I'll make arrangements later to ensure that the war zone's bamboo basket is empty and nothing can be obtained!"

Zhou Cheng shook his head: "Don't worry, set off after dawn!"

"Yuan Shushan's first task is to figure out the requirements we have made to the Japanese, so that they can prescribe the right medicine and find reasons to win over the troops!"

"As for our negotiation content, the war zone would tell him if I wanted to know it. We also took advantage of the war zone's actions to put some pressure on the Japanese and put them in a dilemma. Maybe we can take the opportunity to get some benefits from them!"

The Japanese Army Department of Taiyuan, looking at the negotiation content sent back by the intelligence department, the Chief of Staff was furious on the spot, thinking that the National Salvation Army was too much, and he cursed: "Sir, I think the National Salvation Army is too ignorant. We gave him a brigade organization to look up to them. Unexpectedly, they dared to ask us that we wanted a military organization, and we didn't look in the mirror to see if we had the capital to adapt a military organization!"

Compared with the angry chief of staff, the commander seemed particularly calm and had no intention of getting angry. After reading the telegram, he frowned and fell into deep thought, as if he agreed with the contents of the telegram.

The Chief of Staff looked puzzled and thought that the commander had a very good temper. How could he tolerate the national rescue army making such excessive demands?
