August 2, morning, Hong Kong. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Xu Maofu, dressed as a successful businessman, walked down the trestle with the noisy flow of people, and was greeted by two plainclothes guards at the intelligence station, quickly left the bustling passenger terminal and took a black car to the Kowloon cargo terminal.

The black Austin limousine slowly drove into the north-south Canton Road, and Xu Maofu, who was sitting in the back row, took the message handed by the deputy stationmaster Song Ziqing and read it quickly, and after a while, the smile on his face slowly disappeared, and his delicate beard shook slightly.

"The boss is probably in trouble." Song Ziqing said in a low voice.

"Does this still need to be said, the boss has never made such an outrageous request, and now there are only 130,000 oceans left in the bank account, where can I get money? Alas! ”

Xu Maofu didn't know that Zheng Yi was in trouble now, since the third batch of goods was shipped out in half a month, Zheng Yi had clearly told Xu Maofu in his reply telegram that he would stop all procurement of weapons, equipment and ammunition before the end of the year.

Who knew that just in the past week, he called again to request the purchase of 8,000 Mauser rifles or Czech rifles, and now he has called again to request the purchase of 80 Swedish-made 81-millimeter mortars and 20,000 rounds of artillery shells.

Song Ziqing is a very smart person with a fairly good memory, he saw the depressed expression on Xu Maofu's face, thought about it and suggested in a low voice:

"Didn't the boss ask Shangguan Yong to send twelve boxes of antique calligraphy and paintings last time? If it really doesn't work, sell it! ”

Xu Maofu shook his head again and again: "The twelve boxes of antique calligraphy and paintings have long been handed over to the old man to deal with, and it has not been a month now, how can you make me embarrassed to ask him for money?" ”

"In the past six months, the Wuhan Company and the Huhai Company have earned more than 500,000 yuan, but now they are all pressed on the goods, and it is difficult to realize them for a while, and they have to continue to provide a steady stream of activity funds for the brothers of the intelligence stations in various places, which is difficult!"

Song Ziqing smiled: "If it really doesn't work, send a telegram to the boss and ask, isn't this just laying down Longyan?" Let's not talk about the confiscated money, there will always be a little bit of antique calligraphy and jewelry, right? ”

"You want me to be scolded!"

Xu Maofu sighed again: "It seems that you can only be cheeky to borrow money from the old man." ”

Song Ziqing's eyes rolled: "Can you get credit with Lu Lin Company first?" They won't fail to give you this face! ”

Xu Maofu shook his head: "If you buy the German goods represented by Lu Lin Company, or the drugs and chemical raw materials produced by the three major companies in Europe and the United States, you may be able to pay ten and a half months late, but now you need to buy Swedish goods, and they are very sensitive mortars and shells. ”

At this moment, Song Ziqing had no choice, closed his mouth, and looked out the window quietly, but his mind was quickly calculating, there was no way to quickly get a huge amount of money.

Since the beginning of August, the situation in the whole country has become more and more chaotic, and the entire northern region has not moved toward comprehensive peace because of the temporary victory of the four major group armies of the Kuomintang, but has fallen into tremendous turmoil because of the issue of the change of banners of the Northeast Army after Zhang Zuolin, the leader of the Feng warlords, was killed by himself in Huanggutun, the frequent deployment of troops and generals in the two provinces of Luliao, and the struggle for power and profit between the four major new warlord groups.

In contrast, the southern provinces gradually calmed down after a wave of turbulent revolutionary uprisings, and the Communist-led Pingjiang uprising announced the establishment of the Fifth Army of the Chinese Workers' and Peasants' Red Army, with Comrade Peng Dehua as army commander and commander of the 13th Division, Comrade Deng Ping as chief of staff, and Comrade Li Guang as party representative.

Subsequently, under the encirclement and interception of the Hunan army and the Jiangxi army of the Kuomintang Party, the officers and men of the Red Fifth Army fled into the Tonggu Mountain area, and fought in Pingjiang, Liuyang, Wanzai, Xiushui, Tonggu in Jiangxi Province, and Tongshan in Hubei Province, to carry out guerrilla warfare and open up the revolutionary base areas in Hunan, Hubei and Jiangxi.

The Red Fourth Army, unable to join the Red Fifth Army, turned south and captured Chenzhou, which was relatively empty.

After capturing Shanghang and Longyan, the Communist Party instructors, the Red Fourth Division, and the Red Seventh Army, which had taken western Fujian as their revolutionary base areas, fought successive victories, and finally entered a period of intense internal adjustment.

After three consecutive days of meetings, the special committee of western Fujian and the generals of various armies finally reached a consensus that the Red Army, which now numbered more than 25,000 people, and the rapidly expanding party organization of western Fujian were like a huge machine with a sophisticated structure, which entered a state of high-speed operation in an orderly manner.

At the same time, the agrarian revolutionary movement led by the special committee of western Fujian was vigorously launched in eight counties, and the large-scale military training led by the former enemy headquarters gradually reached a climax.

……

……

On 5 August, the troops of the Sixth and Ninth Armies of the Kuomintang marched to the western Jiangxi region by two routes and launched a fierce attack on the 11th Division of the Red Fourth Army stationed in Yongxin and Lianhua counties.

When the enemy was outnumbered, Commissar Mao, who had judged the situation and sized up the situation, led his troops to withdraw to the Jinggangshan revolutionary base area, and took advantage of the advantageous terrain to meet the enemy troops who were desperately pursuing them, thus breaking the brief calm before the storm and rekindling the flames of war in the entire Hunan and Jiangxi border areas and southern Jiangxi regions.

On 8 August, the Fifth Session of the Second Kuomintang was held in Nanjing.

In the evening of the same day, the news suddenly came that the Sixth Army of the Kuomintang had suffered heavy losses at the foot of Jinggang Mountain, and the annoyed and angry Commander-in-Chief Chiang scolded Hu Wendou, the commander of the Sixth Army, who had lost his troops and retreated for 100 miles, and sent an urgent telegram to Zhu Peide, commander of the Yunnan Army, who had returned to Nanchang, to immediately increase his troops in western Jiangxi and launch the most resolute attack on the Jinggangshan area, the communist base area.

Subsequently, the commander-in-chief summoned his henchmen and civil forces overnight to analyze the battle situation and urgently discuss countermeasures.

After Deputy Chief of Staff Ge Jingen reported on the situation in the border area of Hunan and Jiangxi, Commander-in-Chief Chiang looked at the large map of China and suddenly asked: "What is the movement on the border between Jiangxi and Fujian?" ”

Ge Jingen was stunned for a moment, quickly flipped through the documents in his hand, and checked the whispered report for a moment:

"Since the fall of Longyan, the communist forces have not taken any further action, and Zhang Zhenxin's 2nd Division stationed in Zhangzhou, Li Houji's two security divisions in Xiamen, and Jiang Guangnai's troops in Fuzhou have all stood still and have not followed the orders of the central authorities to launch an offensive against the communist forces occupying various parts of western Fujian."

Commander-in-Chief Jiang scolded "Niang Xipi" in a low voice, and asked: "Where is the main force of the Communist (Gongjun) Army, Zheng Yijiao, now?" Is it in Longyan in western Fujian or Ruijin in southeastern Jiangxi? ”

Ge Jingen also had no clue about this, so he could only truthfully inform the latest information: "The three regiments of Tutor Zheng Yi have been stationed in Ruijin, Huichang and Ningdu counties, and there has been no action so far, but ......"

"The latest information sent by the new Second Division in Zhangzhou shows that Zheng Yi's instructor has now been expanded to two divisions and six regiments, and if the situation is true, the two main regiments of the Gongjun Army currently entrenched in the Longyan area should be the newly expanded troops under Zheng Yi's command."

Yang Yongtai, the chief thinker of Lao Chiang, Lin Wei, chief of staff of the General Headquarters, Yu Feipeng, chief of the Quartermaster General, and Song Ziwen, minister of finance, were all secretly surprised, and immediately realized that Zheng Yi, who had been denounced by Commander-in-Chief Chiang as a "traitor to the party-state," had become a serious problem for the Central Government of the Kuomintang and Commander-in-Chief Chiang.
