"Brother Tang, please slow down!"

Seeing this, Zheng Yi hurriedly said something to stay: "Please also sit down for the time being, let's discuss slowly, there will always be a solution, haha!" Adjutant Xu—"

"Here!"

Xu Maofu, who was leaning on the edge of the pillar and smiling crookedly, hurriedly stepped forward and stood upright. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Zheng Yi waved his hand: "You cross the river, tell a group of brothers, immediately return all the weapons of the friendly brothers, and send more than 100 friendly brothers across the river in an orderly manner. ”

"Yes!"

Xu Maofu, who couldn't see the excitement, regretted leaving.

Tang Zihuan saw that people showed sincerity, so he put down the deliberately pretended shelf, sat down again unhurriedly, took two sips of the teacup and took two sips, and only began to bargain when he was almost done:

"Considering the actual needs of your department, we will provide the full amount of food for ten days, but our weapon system is completely different from your department, and all departments of our army are still using a large number of Mosin Nagant rifles aided by Soviet Russia, and there are very few German-made rifles, if it were not for the newly replaced batch of 7.92mm caliber Makqin water-cooled machine guns and Belgian Browning light machine guns, I am afraid that there would not even be a single Mauser rifle cartridge."

"In view of this, the bullets can only replenish your unit with 50,000 rounds, plus a hundred boxes of grenades, twenty boxes of 81mm mortar shells, and any more will be beyond our power! As for your department's monthly military salary, we really can't help it. ”

The brothers looked at Zheng Yi again, and Han Shouren, the deputy division commander who had always been loyal and honest, spoke at this time: "Or, let's stay for a few more days, right?" ”

"Since ancient times, Ji'an has been an important place of commerce and trade connecting the three provinces, let's work hard, try our best to persuade the gentry and virtuous people outside the city and the wealthy merchants in the past, and enthusiastically donate money, it is estimated that it will not take a few days to make up a month's military salary for the brothers."

"Hey, don't tell me, it's a good idea, and we've never done it before." Wang Huchen immediately echoed his words.

The righteous and awe-inspiring Li Zhao also nodded heavily: "It's really feasible!" Although this is a bit damaging to reputation, but at present, it seems that this is the only way to go, and it is really a last resort! Let's not take it as an example. ”

"Agreed!"

Zhao Jingting and Dong Zongzhuo expressed their positions several times in succession, and their faces were full of smiles that they were afraid that the world would not be chaotic.

Tang Zihuan was suddenly anxious, Zheng Yi hurriedly waved his hand when he saw this, pondered for a moment, and made a suggestion to Tang Zihuan: "Or, please Brother Tang go back for the time being, and contact Master Zhu, who led his troops north to Yuanzhou a few days ago!" ”

"According to the information we have obtained, General Zhou Lan, acting chairman of Hunan Province, and General Zhang Yipeng, chief of staff of the Changsha Garrison Command, issued an order at the same time as a week ago, ordering four elite troops, including General Zhang Guowei's left-behind division and Colonel Luo Ding's independent regiment, totaling more than 28,000 elites, to rush to Liling, Liuyang, and Yuxian, where the Communists gathered, in three directions."

"I estimate that at this time, order has basically been restored in these areas on the Hunan and Jiangxi borders, but a large number of communist forces that have escaped the net are likely to have fled to the western Jiangxi border, especially the line from Pingxiang to Lianhua, where the army is empty."

"Therefore, I also ask Brother Tang and your brothers to put the overall situation first and replenish ammunition and supplies for our department as soon as possible, so that we can drive westward as soon as possible and completely wipe out the communist forces in various places."

Where did Tang Zihuan not know that the situation was urgent? But he really didn't have any good way: "There is only one radio station in our division, and it has been taken to the front line by our division commander Zhu, alas! Otherwise, go back to report to the commander immediately, and try to replenish some more ammunition and part of the military salary for your department, but the amount is definitely not much, please be considerate! ”

"There's Brother Lao Tang! After Brother Tang returns, please report to the head of your department on my behalf, during the period when our unit is stationed, there will definitely be no misunderstanding that is easy to cause, if you need it, you can use our radio station at any time to get in touch with General Zhu Shigui on the front line. ”

After Zheng Yi finished speaking, he led the brothers to send them off warmly, until Tang Zihuan and the two guards rode away, and then returned to the teahouse hall with a smile.

Li Zhao asked Zheng Yi suspiciously: "That's the end?" ”

Zheng Yi replied casually: "How is it possible?" Lao Zhao—"

"Here!"

Zhao Jingting walked over happily.

Zheng Yi instructed: "It's getting dark, hurry up to the shops on both sides of the strait to requisition some grain and meat, remember to put an IOU, if it is not enough, you let Li Lianshan on the other side of the river take people to a few villages and towns on the west bank, the brothers have walked hundreds of miles hard, the average weight is as high as 20 kilograms, if there is no meat to eat, how can we ensure the speed of the march?" ”

"For the great cause of the party-state's suppression of bandits, we, the elite troops from the Huangpu lineage, have to endure the pain of scraping the ground...... Alas, I only hope that Principal Jiang and Commander Fang Dingying can understand our hardships, which is really a last resort! ”

"Understood! I'm going to the ferry, haha......"

"Haha, hahaha......"

……

……

In the sixteenth year of the Republic of China, Ji'an was the seat of Ji'an County, and the urban area of Ji'an City in later generations was Luling County at this time, and the two counties were bordered by Helushui.

When night falls, the stars and moon shine brightly.

The atmosphere in the city of Ji'an was extremely tense, and the local security regiment and militia of more than 3,000 people were all dispatched, and under the command of the Yunnan officers and soldiers, they hurriedly climbed the east and south city walls to defend themselves.

In the wide barracks on Nanmen Street, Tang Yufu, the commander of the Dian Army, glanced coldly at the more than 100 officers and soldiers who had just been released, and turned around and left without saying a word.

Tang Zihuan shook his head and sighed, and ordered the two nervous-looking battalion commanders to appease the unlucky more than 100 brothers, quickly catch up with Tang Yufu, and enter the gate of the regiment headquarters together.

Tang Yufu waved away the two staff officers who served tea diligently, leaned on the mahogany official hat chair and sighed: "What is the attitude of the other party?" ”

Tang Zihuan smiled bitterly: "Very arrogant, especially that He Haoruo, who is dignified and unfathomable, and seems to be elegant and open-minded in speech and demeanor, but in fact, he is very cunning...... To be honest, the little brother has never encountered such a difficult person to deal with. ”

"yes!"

Tang Yufu also had a headache, shook his head and said: "I have long heard of this person's style, it is enough to have the title of a doctor in the United States, but he also got a diploma from an American military academy, this kind of person is extremely rare, and he is also very annoying." ”

Tang Zihuan felt the same way, echoed a few sentences and conveyed the conditions listed by the other party, and finally said his opinion helplessly:

"When entering and exiting the ferry, I paid attention to it and found that this Whampoa military instructor was indeed well-equipped and well-trained, and the two defensive lines set up in a hurry were very ingenious and ingenious, with a large number of light and heavy machine guns and mortars......"

"Although their officers were extremely arrogant, even a little vulgar, their soldiers were full of spirit, and they walked in a row of two and three, in unison, in unison, and in unison, which was very remarkable, and there was absolutely no such performance without long-term and strict formal military training."

"From this point of view, He Haoruo, Gao Ji and others still have real talents and learning, not the kind of rhetorical showmanship."

Tang Yufu felt very uncomfortable: "No matter how well the soldiers train, they have to go to the battlefield to fight a few battles before they know if it is in vain, alas!" It's just a matter of finding a way to send these plague gods away, and let them drive to the west as soon as possible to fight the communist forces, otherwise even if the division leads the troops back, it will be no problem. ”

Tang Zihuan nodded again and again: "Yes, while waiting for them to send the third company brother back at the ferry, I specially had a brief conversation with their captain and company commander surnamed Duan, and he said that their military seat Fang Dingying will soon lead the remaining two divisions to Chenzhou in southern Hunan and then go north to Wuhan, so they also want to exterminate the communists on the Hunan and Jiangxi borders as soon as possible, and then rush to join the main force." ”

"After a little pondering, I knew that Zhang Fakui's two armies had returned to the nest of Guangdong Province, and I am afraid that I could not continue to tolerate Commander-in-Chief Chiang's descendants to stay on the side of the couch, so Commander-in-Chief Chiang in Shimono would transfer this instructor of Fang Dingying to Western Jiangxi through the General Headquarters in Nanjing......

"Of course, the name of suppressing bandits is actually just a formality, or an opportunity to train the team, and it can also win a good reputation in various armies."

"Your speculation is reasonable, in fact, our army has always gotten along well with the Huangpu family, in the early days of the Northern Expedition, we worked together to fight Nanchang, and Commander-in-Chief Chiang gave our army a lot of care in terms of military salaries and weapons and equipment.

"Until the middle of last month, Commander-in-Chief Chiang was forced to go into the wilderness, and Yi Shuai was forced to take a wait-and-see attitude due to the situation, and while secretly expanding the army, he was also estranged from the Huangpu family, which may have led to the current situation, alas!"

Tang Yufu mentioned the old incident with great emotion: "Now it seems that He Haoruo's request is not out of line, and there have been precedents before, except for the two items of military salary and up to 200 boxes of mortar shells, other conditions are barely acceptable. ”

"Do you need to ask for the master's seat first?" Tang Zihuan reminded carefully.

Tang Yufu thought for a moment and shook his head resolutely: "If you ask for the master's seat, even if you send a fast horse to Yuanzhou overnight, you will come and go for at least three days, if you let He Haoruo and others, who are arrogant and arrogant, mistakenly think that we are delaying and perfunctory, I don't know what kind of mess will be made......

"Forget it! Let's take the right in a hurry, I will report to the division in detail when I go back, and I will have the opportunity to find the Whampoa Army to make up for it. ”

Tang Zihuan no longer had any opinions, and turned the topic back to military salaries and mortar shells.

The two weighed it again and again, and finally decided:

A one-time fee of 20,000 yuan was given to the instructor, and due to the small inventory of mortar shells, it was difficult to purchase and replenish them for a while, so he could only give the instructor 50 boxes, which would be delivered early tomorrow morning, and the instructor was asked to stamp the receipt with a big seal, and immediately leave Ji'an and drive to the west to suppress the bandit battlefield.
