Chapter 94: The Twisted Army (6)
"Wen Yuewei......" After hearing the name, Lei Hu looked at Xu Kaiwen, the secretary of the party committee, with a somewhat puzzled look.
"That's the woman." Xu Kaiwen determined Lei Hu's thoughts.
"She's still alive!" Lei Hu's tone was not very friendly, or rather rather unfriendly. There are several landmark cases in the history of the Liberation Army. A cavalry cadre who was obsessed with Wen Yuewei stole the map to Wen Yuewei, and was discovered afterwards. That cadre was a promising officer who was very favored by Lei Hu. He was beheaded because of this. And that incident finally established the construction of the military tribunal of the Liberation Army.
Lei Hu still remembers that at that time, Wei Ze repeatedly emphasized that the military law provisions used by the military tribunals of the Liberation Army must be agreed by the senior generals of the Liberation Army. At the two sessions that began at the end of 1853, one of the internal tasks of the 1854 Liberation Party announced by Weizer was the Ming system. Wei Ze once again stressed that the Liberation Party, the new government, and the Republic of China must abide by the law, because these laws have been passed by the National Congress of the People's Republic of China. It's not made up by a single person or a small group of people.
Seeing these words, Lei Hu couldn't help but think of Wei Ze's creation in the judicial system of the Liberation Army. Of course, I can't help but think of Lei Hu's own failures. Back then, a guy as heavy as Lei Hu did such a thing, but it made Lei Hu lose a lot of face. Now that Wen Yuewei, the culprit of this matter, has appeared like this, of course Lei Hu can't have any good feelings.
But Lei Hu is not the small army commander he used to be, or the commander of the cavalry division after all. Commanding an army of 100,000 people, he bears the burden of security in the north. Lei Hu also has no intention of revenge. He asked the secretary who came to report the situation: "What's the matter with this Wen Yuewei?" ”
The secretary replied: "The Hunan army is slaughtering the Twist army, so Wen Yuewei ran south of the Huai River with the Twist army. After our troops detained them, the woman, who called herself Wen Yuewei, said that she knew Governor Wezedu, and knew Riesling. That's why I asked Riesling to assign some people to verify whether this woman was really that person. ”
"Twelve years later, who can remember what she looks like. If it weren't for the fact that I suddenly remembered an old thing last year and transferred the previous text, I wouldn't have remembered her name. Lei Hu replied very unhappily. Thanks to the blessing of the Guangfu Junwen early on to pay attention to documents, Lei Hu easily got the file from 10 years ago when he retrieved the information. Wen Yuewei's name was included in this ten-year-old military court file, which was the only way for Lei Hu and the heads of the military region to learn about the name.
Lei Hu couldn't even remember who of his subordinates had contact with Wen Yuewei twelve years ago, and more importantly, if the revolutionary heroes of twelve years ago hadn't made principled mistakes, they would all be the backbone of the army at this time. Army commander, division commander, an ordinary soldier at that time was no longer good, and now he is almost a regiment commander. These people are scattered all over the liberated area, how does Lei Hu know where to find someone who knows Wen Yuewei.
Seeing that Lei Hu was very unhappy, the secretary hurriedly said: "Commander Lei, now the comrades of the political department have heard that the Hunan army is fighting with the Twist Army, so I am worried that there will be a problem that a large number of Twist troops will escape across the Huai River to our side." Of course, we're worried about some bad guys mixed in. ”
Lei Hu was unhappy when he thought of this matter, and in order to get rid of this matter as much as possible, he immediately came up with a solution, "Let them review this matter by themselves, it's not that I don't want to help, I really can't help." By the way, there's only one copy of the case file that I can help with. You can use this to verify this Wen Yuewei. ”
A month later, on March 1, 1855, at a regular meeting, the Chief of the Political Affairs Department raised a question about this: "It is long overdue for the mass exodus of the Twisted army from our side." But we didn't see it. Is there something wrong with this? Could it be that the Twist Army surrendered to the Hunan Army? ”
The defense line of the Huai River of the Guangfu Army was actually quite negative in a sense, because several troops on the north bank of the Huai River were not feared by the Guangfu Army. The Huai Army, the Hunan Army, and the Chu Army, all three armies have quite rational leaders, and these rational guys have a benefit, they know that their irrational behavior will be met with strong counterattacks. So on the contrary, we can give a certain amount of faith in their rationality.
At present, the Huaihe defense line troops really need to guard against and suppress the south, and Huainan wants to suppress the landlords and regimental training. In the past, the Taiping army only briefly controlled Huaiyin, and after Wei Ze broke away from the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, Lin Fengxiang of the Taiping army withdrew from Huaiyin. Therefore, most of Jiangsu south of the Huai River did not have the experience of being controlled by the Guangfu Army or the Taiping Army. At this time, the landlords, gentry and literati in this land did not know the power of the Liberation Army, and military suppression was still a very important task at this time.
"Isn't it a good thing that the Twist Army doesn't go south?" Someone from the Military Commission asked.
The director of the political department said: "We don't want to evaluate whether this is a good thing or a bad thing, if we don't go on the Northern Expedition now, it doesn't mean that we won't go on the Northern Expedition in the future." Now I know what happened between the Twist Army and the enemy, and I also want to prepare for the future. ”
This was a very good reason, so the reconnaissance unit was ordered to go and reconnoiter the situation. After only three days of going there, the reconnaissance unit returned. The news they brought back was very shocking, "The Hunan army occupies all the villages in the area of Wuyang, and the people of the Twist Army do not know where they went. The people of the rest of the world had no idea that the Twist Army had fled here. ”
"The Hunan army killed all the twisted troops of Voryang?" The head of the political department knew that the Hunan army had slaughtered several cities, so he could still roughly come up with such a possibility.
"If it is killed, then I am afraid that the Hunan army will kill all the people in the Wuyang area." The person in charge of the reconnaissance unit gave his opinion on the basis of the massacre of the city by the Hunan army.
"Our army has cleared the Wuyang bandits, and at this time the various enclosures have begun to farm." Peng Yulin reported to Zeng Guofan.
The Hunan army is now less than 100,000 people, and after all the land in the Wuyang area is included in the hands of the Hunan army, it will almost be able to feed the Hunan army of less than 100,000. In fact, things such as military salaries are not very important, and the Hunan soldiers who followed Zeng Guofan earlier are naturally loyal to Zeng Guofan. Later, tens of thousands of people came to bring "news" that the Liberation Army had carried out a massacre in Lianghu. All the families who participated in the Hunan Army were killed by the Guangfu Army.
Since the Hunan army carried out its own bloody massacre, they were very receptive to the news that their family members had been killed by the Guangfu army. The land was seized, and the Hunan army, which had to flee for its life, hated the Guangfu army to the core. Coupled with the tens of thousands of Hunan soldiers who were instigated by these people, Zeng Guofan's troops formed an extremely unified situation.
After killing all the people in the Voryang area, the Hunan army was finally able to determine that as long as Voryang was not lost, the Hunan army's food would be fine. At this time, what is in front of the Hunan army is what to do next. R1058
