Chapter 486: Zhang Haipeng's reaction

What should have been said was also said, Jia Ba's persuasion just gave Zhang Haipeng a step, and he happened to get off the donkey, and the conversation changed:

"You're right, our Lao Zhang is working for the Imperial Army, but after all, we are not Japanese, and it is normal to be a little wronged, as long as we can completely wipe out that team this time, the Imperial Army will naturally be able to see our Lao Zhang's loyalty!"

Jia Ba hurriedly took the words:

"Yes, yes, yes, Commander, that's the case, the eyes of the imperial army are bloodshot, you must not let such a loyal and capable person be wronged all the time, you can rest assured."

Zhang Haipeng deliberately made a look of residual anger and said to Jia Ba:

"Go, call Lin Guozhong and Zhou Zuopeng, Lao Tzu will deploy the battle plan!"

Jia Ba stood upright, turned around and ran out of the office quickly.

Zhang Haipeng had a total of three divisions and an independent mixed brigade, totaling more than 23,000 people; Lin Guozhong is the commander of the 18th Division, and Zhou Zuopeng is the commander of the 39th Division.

In order to show their importance and trust in Zhang Haipeng, the Japanese did not disrupt his original establishment after he surrendered to the Japanese army, but only expanded it several times on the basis of the original establishment.

The 18th Division, the 39th Division, and the 112th Division were all directly expanded into divisions on the basis of the original regimental structure, and the original numbers were retained.

Only the independent mixed brigade was formed after Zhang Haipeng defected to the Japanese, and the Japanese asked Zhang Haipeng to choose weapons and equipment at random in the Fengtian Arsenal, except for the latest heavy artillery and aircraft tanks developed and manufactured by Xiao Zhang after taking over, the rest can be taken casually.

Therefore, Zhang Haipeng's independent mixed brigade is well-equipped, and all of them are new guys, and at least one-fifth of the family funds that old Zhang has saved all his life have fallen into Zhang Haipeng's hands.

Needless to say, Liao-made rifles, light and heavy machine guns, 60-mm and 75-mm mortars, and Zhang Haipeng got 36 75-mm mountain artillery alone.

In addition to this separate mixed brigade, half of the equipment of the other three divisions was replaced with new ones.

At least in terms of firepower, Zhang Haipeng's team was several grades higher than the local army of Guodang.

It's just that in the name of assisting in training and combat, the Japanese assigned a military adviser to the independent mixed brigade, nominally to assist in combat and training, but in fact to monitor Zhang Haipeng's movement of troops.

After getting the news of Huang Ergou, Zhang Haipeng thought of a way to deal with it as soon as possible.

Although there were a lot of people, Zhang Haipeng did not plan to use the independent mixed brigade.

He planned to send the 18th and 39th Divisions to Chaoyang and directly break up that team in one go.

As for whether it can be completely annihilated, Zhang Haipeng did not consider it; On the contrary, he hoped that he would not be completely annihilated.

Because in that case, if there is a clean-up operation every once in a while, the Japanese will happily allocate a considerable amount of military spending to him.

Zhang Haipeng became a traitor with such a big infamy, in order to enjoy glory and wealth.

Now that the official is there, and the military rank has also come up, the money in his hand is still a little insufficient.

Zhang Haipeng knew very well in his heart that no matter how loyal he was to the Japanese and how hard he worked, he was a Chinese in the hearts of the Japanese.

Even if the 40,000,000 Chinese do not recognize Zhang Haipeng as a Chinese, the Japanese will never regard him as a Japanese.

Therefore, Zhang Haipeng's current military rank and position have reached the peak, and it is impossible to climb up again.

Therefore, Zhang Haipeng just wants to save more money, which can be regarded as leaving a way back for himself.

If the Japanese can really take down the whole of China in the end, then he must hand over the military power immediately after the war, so as not to be "hidden by the birds and dead dogs" by the Japanese;

If the Japanese were defeated, he would find a way to flee abroad, but if he couldn't do it, he would go incognito at home, and as long as he had money, he could live comfortably and without worrying about food and clothing.

Ten minutes later, there was a knock at the door.

Zhang Haipeng tidied up the military uniform on his body and sat back on the big chair behind the desk:

"Come in!"

As his words fell, two men wearing the rank of colonel pushed open the door and walked in, stood still in front of Zhang Haipeng's desk, raised their hands in unison, saluted, and called "Commander".

These two people are Lin Guozhong, commander of the 18th Division, and Zhou Zuopeng, commander of the 39th Division.

Lin Guozhong is about forty years old, with a Chinese face and eyebrows, and he looks quite majestic; Zhou Zuopeng is in his early forties, bald, round-faced, hooked nose, and looks like a ruthless person.

According to the officer level of the Guo Army at that time, Lin Guozhong and Zhou Zuopeng were already division commanders, and their military ranks should be promoted to major generals, but now the Japanese have the final say, and even the rank of Zhang Haipeng, a general, was given in the name of Manchukuo, and Lin and Zhou Erren could only be colonels and division commanders.

Zhang Haipeng's gaze swept over the faces of the two in turn, cleared his throat and said:

"Two, I invite you here today because I have important military discussions; I just received a call from Chaoyang, saying that a large group of unknown origins of about 5,000 people had been found in the area of Phoenix Mountain in Chaoyang. ”

Hearing this, Lin Guozhong and Zhou Zuopeng glanced at each other, and they both saw a trace of consternation in each other's eyes.

It is not surprising that there are such a number of troops in other places, after all, it has been almost three years since the Japanese occupied Tohoku, and it is normal for some teams to develop and merge into tens of thousands of people.

But Rehe is different, it has only been more than a year since the Japanese occupied Rehe, and there has been no large-scale resistance to the armed forces, how could a team of 5,000 people suddenly emerge?

Seeing the reactions of Lin and Erren, Zhang Haipeng continued:

"Two months ago, I received news that an anti-Japanese team claiming to be an independent battalion had sneaked into Chifeng from Jilin into the grassland, but no trace of it had been found. Now I suspect that the team that appeared in Chaoyang is the one that entered Chifeng two months ago, and I plan to send two of them to clean it up, I wonder if you have any opinions? ”

Zhang Haipeng was born as a bandit, he doesn't know a few big characters, and it has long become a habit to be full of swear words on weekdays.

But he knows that his current identity is different from the past, especially at this time, and his speech must be more in line with the identity of a high-ranking official and garrison commander of Rehe Province.

But it was torture for him to talk like this, and if he continued to say it, he would probably be in his original form.

Lin Guozhong and Zhou Zuopeng, one graduated from the Baoding Military Academy, and the other was born in the Fengtian Lecture and Martial Arts Hall.

Especially Zhou Zuopeng, who was the head of the regiment under Feng Gongzi, followed Zhang Haipeng to defect to the Japanese completely out of necessity and helplessness.
