Chapter 65 Appointment
"Sir, you are the boat tonight, they will transport you to Wuhu, and then there will be a boat over there to send them to Wuhan."
Nanjing's Xiaguan, at this time, gathered a large number of people, mostly soldiers, basically the remnants of the Songhu front.
In the first battle of Songhu, the Chinese army suffered heavy losses, the elite was almost wiped out, and the retreat also led to a large-scale rout due to command problems.
Compared with the large number of troops, although there are many ships on the river, it is only a drop in the bucket.
"Thank you, brother!"
Leng Jie took the opportunity to take out five pieces of ocean and quietly stuffed them to the major in front of him, and the other party looked around and quietly subordinates.
"Brother, don't leave here. As you can see, there are too many troops who need to retreat by boat, and there is no shortage of central military lineage. Your tax police corps, Chief He and Chief Gu, personally told the chairman of the committee before vacating this ship for you to retreat.
If you don't take a good look at your ship and are robbed by other troops, don't blame us. ”
"Thank you, brother, you didn't say we really didn't know this was the case. This katana belonged to a Japanese soldier we captured, it's okay, you can play with it! ”
As he spoke, Leng Jie asked Li Jichang to open the package around his waist, revealing several Japanese samurai swords.
Seeing these katanas, Li Jichang hesitated, "Sir! ”
"Bring it!"
Leng Jie frowned.
Li Jichang was reluctant to take out an adjutant knife from the package, and then handed it to Leng Jie, and then Leng Jie handed the katana to the major.
"Click!"
The major pulled out his katana in public, looked at the cold blade, his face was happy, and then inserted the blade into the scabbard, with a look of love on his face.
An adjutant knife is rare, and even if it does, it won't be his turn as a major.
Whether it's a collection or a gift to the boss, it's worth it, and by the way, I also have a much better attitude towards this group of soldiers of the Tax Police Corps, and I also told me some other things.
Not long after the major left, many officers and soldiers on the Shimonoseki pier shouted and protested.
"Why don't we have a ship?"
"We have also fought desperately with devils on the front line, why don't we cross the river."
"Don't be impatient, the ships are limited, and when there are spare boats, we will arrange for you to cross the river, please wait."
"What, wait? I think it's because you look down on our miscellaneous army, why does the Central Army have ships, but when we come to our miscellaneous army, there will be no ships. ”
"That is, if you look down on the ragtag army, don't let us fight."
For a while, the crowd on the dock was surging, and even the soldiers in charge of the order of the dock were a little overwhelmed, but fortunately, the superiors of those soldiers stood up in the end.
For this situation, both Li Hong and Leng Jie are a little helpless. There's no way, they're just small characters, they can't manage these things at all, and people are selfish, you said that they should give up their troops' ships to these troops who don't have ships, and they don't want to.
In the evening, just as the ships of the Tax Police Corps were about to dock, a car appeared at the Shimonoseki Pier.
"Let's go, let's go!"
"The people of the Tax Police Corps and so on!"
At this time, everyone's eyes were on the ship that was about to dock, and suddenly they heard someone shouting for the tax police corps, and many people turned around to find that several officers of low rank were shouting from the dock looking around.
When these came to the tax police corps, a captain gave a military salute to Li Hong and others.
"Hello sir, the humble position is Yang Wei from the Staff Office of the Teaching Corps."
"Hello, I am Li Hong, the acting head of the Fourth Regiment of the Tax Police Corps!" Li Hong returned a military salute, not knowing what the people from the teaching corps were doing.
The relationship between the teaching corps and the tax police corps is relatively deep, which has to start when Huang Jie served as the tax police corps.
At this time, Huang Jie was obsessed with the affairs of the Fuxing Society and did not care about the tax police corps. Later, the Fifth Regiment and the Sixth Regiment were expanded, and the regiment commanders Qiu Zhiji and Zhong Baosheng were recommended by Gui Yongqing from the Teaching Corps, including Wang Gongliang, deputy head of the regiment and commander of the second detachment, who also came from the Teaching Corps.
As for the other deputy head of the regiment, He Shaozhou is He Yingqin's nephew.
The factions within the Kuomintang are very clear, if it is said that the previous tax police corps was Song Ziwen's private army, then the current tax police corps is not easy to say.
After Song Ziwen was forced to resign, Lao Jiang sent his confidant Huang Jie to take over the tax police corps and removed many high-ranking officers during Song Ziwen's period. However, after all, the Tax Police Corps was created by Song Ziwen, and Sun Liren was also cultivated by Song Ziwen, so Song Ziwen's influence in the Tax Police Corps is not low.
Later, He Yingqin recommended his nephew He Shaozhou to join the tax police corps as the deputy commander, and the captain of the teaching corps did not let go of this opportunity to expand his power, and also arranged for many people to join the tax police corps.
Gui Yongqing, it is not easy to say which faction he is from.
First of all, he was a student of the first phase of Whampoa, and was valued by Lao Jiang during the Northern Expedition, so he has always been reused.
Secondly, Gui Yongqing was quite appreciated by He Yingqin during the Huangpu period, and later He Yingqin married his niece to Gui Yongqing, so Gui Yongqing is He Yingqin's niece and son-in-law.
In addition, Gui Yongqing has a very good relationship with Chen Cheng. In history, Gui Yongqing was able to become the commander-in-chief of the navy of the national army as an army background, which had a lot to do with Chen Cheng's strong push.
So looking at it this way, the reason why Gui Yongqing is like a fish in water in the national army is also very clear.
Although his performance in the Anti-Japanese War and later can be described as rotten, because he was deeply appreciated by Lao Jiang and He Yingqin, the two bigwigs of the national government, and with the help of Chen Cheng, the boss of the civil engineering department, He Chou had no chance to make a comeback.
It is precisely Gui Yongqing's background that makes the relationship between the Teaching Corps and the Tax Police Corps very close.
"Chief Li, this is an order, issued by the military headquarters of your 8th Army, signed by Commander Huang." The captain's attitude was quite polite, but his tone was a little undeniable.
Li Hong was slightly dissatisfied, but after taking the order and looking at it, his expression was a little weird, especially when he glanced at Leng Jie.
"Sir, what's written on this?" Someone asked.
"Lao Leng, the military department sent you to the teaching team!" Li Hong joked, and then handed the appointment to Leng Jie.
"What do you mean?"
Leng Jie took the order, looked at it, and was a little surprised.
The content of the appointment is very simple, that is, to transfer Leng Jie to the teaching team, and the specific position is not said.
Transferred to the Teaching Corps? What the hell is this? I don't seem to know the generals who taught the corps.
Seeing that everyone was looking at him curiously, Leng Jie was also speechless.
"Presumably you are Leng Jie, who is known as 'Leng Yama'. After listening to the introduction of Chief Wang of your department, the captain is very interested in you. I specially asked Chief Huang to transfer you to the teaching team, and also allowed you to bring a few people with you. ”
