Chapter 24 The Situation of the Western Expeditionary Army
"No need. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info you just said that the New Ninth Army is coming, please come out to greet you Commander Li in person! If he doesn't want to come out and trouble you to tell us, we'll go. "Ren Laifeng is also angry, he just doesn't sign up!
The officer was stunned for a moment, and the smile on his face did not decrease, "That's okay, then I'll wronged you to wait for a while, and I'll go in and report now." After speaking, he turned his face and warned the officers standing guard at the gate of the barracks, "Hu Defa, take your people to stand guard well, and don't talk nonsense and offend people indiscriminately." Do you hear that? ”
"Yes, I heard you!" Hu Defa puffed out his chest and agreed loudly. Although this person reprimanded his subordinates, whether it was Ren Laifeng or everyone in the New Ninth Army present, everyone thought that this kid was pointing at Sang and scolding Huai, and he was satirizing the nonsense of the New Ninth Army and offending people. Ren Laifeng's awkwardness deepened a little more.
This time it was very fast, and after less than ten minutes, a group of puppet soldiers came out of the barracks, and one of these people wore a uniform that was a little different from that of ordinary puppet soldiers. The man walked to the front of the crowd, looked at Ren Laifeng and these people, raised his head and asked: "Excuse me, who is the leader of you here?" I am Yu Tao, the commander of the Sixth Division of the Western Expeditionary Army. ”
The division commander of the Anguo Army? This official is not small. Ren Laifeng looked at this small and energetic commander of the Anguo Army, hesitated for a moment, and finally stepped forward to face Yu Tao.
"You're Yu Tao? I'm Ren Laifeng. Ren Laifeng looked at each other with a smile, and a faint chill flashed in his eyes when he signed up.
"Let the wind come in? Hiss-" Yu Tao suddenly gasped, took two steps back, and looked at the person opposite with a shocked face, "You, you are, you are the ...... of the New Ninth Army"
"It's me." Ren Laifeng nodded and admitted his identity without waiting for the other party to finish speaking. There are a lot of puppet soldiers at the gate, who knows what the background of these people is? It's better to keep the identity of the military commander secret here, so as not to cause trouble for no reason.
"Ren, Mr. Ren, these are your companions, right? Please, please, please! Yu Tao stretched out his hand, Ren Laifeng nodded slightly, and led people into the Anguo military camp proudly! Yu Tao ordered closely behind him: "Strengthen your vigilance, no one is allowed to trespass into the barracks without my order!" Also, if the Japanese are coming, remember to keep them out first, and report to me! ”
After a brief explanation, Master Yu trotted all the way up, "Mr. Ren, everyone, please come here!" ”
Ren Laifeng followed Yu Tao into a marching tent. This tent is neither the largest nor the most ornately decorated, it is just an ordinary tent. There were 80 tents around the same one, if not a hundred. There are tables, chairs, benches and benches in the tent, but there is no marching bed, and the layout of the room looks like a living room.
The guard company stayed outside, Huang Guojin and Xiao Kuaishou followed into the tent, and Niu Hei greeted the troops outside. Jin Haitang and Xiaoqing naturally followed Ren Laifeng into the tent.
After everyone sat down, Yu Tao looked left and right outside the door and closed the tent door.
"Commander Ren, there were a lot of people outside just now, and I ask for your forgiveness for not daring to salute. Now I'll give you a salute. Salute! ”
"Master Yu doesn't have to be like this. How do I feel that something is wrong with you here? Since the other party has the intention of taking the initiative to show affection, of course Ren Laifeng doesn't mind narrowing the distance between them through questioning.
"Alas, Commander Ren, something has happened here! I guess it's going to be hard to do this time! Yu Tao coughed and sighed, with a bitter look on his face, "Last time, Deputy Army Commander Gao Guixun and the three deputy division commanders followed Commander-in-Chief Jin Bihui to negotiate, and at that time, your condition was to give us a division. ”
Gao Guixun and the others were overjoyed when they heard this, and when they came back to tell the big guys, the brothers were all very happy when they heard this. Only Commander Li didn't seem so happy. But the big guys are happy, and few people pay attention to this little thing. ”
A few days later, Commander Li called several division commanders together for a drink. Halfway through the drink, he told us a few things, saying that we are obviously an army now, so why should we be demoted to a division after joining the national army? He also asked the three of us, would we like the division commander to become the brigade commander? ”
"At that time, Liang Xing and I didn't say anything, we were both willing! Not to mention the brigade commander, it's the regiment commander, the battalion commander, even if it's a platoon commander, we will do it! If you join the New Ninth Army, you will be a soldier of the country, and you will receive the salary given by the state, and you can stand up and be an upright person! It is like nowadays when people are not ghosts and ghosts, saying that soldiers are not soldiers, and that thieves are not like thieves. ”
"Huang Xinping, the commander of the Seventh Division, is Commander Li's cousin-in-law, and the two of them wear a pair of pants. The two of them talked about the disadvantages of the uprising vigorously, but Liang Xing and I never expressed their position. Commander Li didn't get support from us, only Huang Xinping had a division, and he felt a bit lonely. Even if he wanted to, he wouldn't dare to do it. ”
"The deputy army commander Gao Guixun and the three deputy division commanders were all in favor of the uprising, and the army commander Li and Huang Xinping did not have enough weight in the alliance. We also have a Japanese military advisory group of more than 30 people in the military headquarters of the Western Expeditionary Army. Commander Li had been hesitating, he didn't know whether to report the situation to the Japanese advisers. ”
"Actually, a few days ago, he had already sent me a letter saying that if I didn't follow him, he would report our conspiracy to Advisor Yamada! How many times have I discussed with Deputy Army Commander Gao and Division Commander Liang, we have long wanted to revolt in advance, but we don't know what your plans are, and we don't know how to get in touch with you. Commander Ren, I've been waiting for you to come for a long time! ”
Yu Tao was like a little woman who had been wronged, and she couldn't stop talking. Ren Laifeng listened to it with relish at first, but after listening to it for a long time, he slowly developed a trace of impatience in his heart, "Okay, Yu Tao, I know what you said." In this case, you send someone to call the deputy army commander and the division commanders and deputy division commanders, and I will ask them all for their opinions. ”
Listening to a person speaks is called listening to partiality and believing, and letting the wind come to listen to the voice of the masses. Of course, Yu Tao has no objection to this, and only when there are more people who speak can he prove that what he said is reasonable.
people, soon sent out. The deputy army commander and the division commander and the deputy division commander have to wait for a while even if they want to come over, Ren Laifeng is fine to sit here, and he will learn about the basic situation of his division with Yu Tao. Like what kind of training, how much military salary a soldier pays a month, what is the background of the soldier, etc., as long as it is related to the army, it is all what Ren Laifeng wants to hear.
The two of them were talking about Xingtou, and someone outside the door reported: Commander Li is here!
