Chapter 247: Fire Merge
said that the gendarmes who opened the way learned that the famous Bai Fei was in front of them, and their faces suddenly changed greatly. They are all henchmen of the new military police commander, so they naturally know the fact that Bai Fei is the former military police commander, and at this time, Bai Fei clearly did not give way, and he obviously wanted to find something.
The older soldier saw that the others were cowering and didn't dare to step forward, so he could only stubbornly and tremble and said to Bai Fei: "This, Commander Bai... Oh no, General White, this... You see... This..."
I hummed for a long time, but I didn't say a word.
Bai Fei shook his head speechlessly, and said lightly: "I heard that your Commander Luo is coming, I just wanted to meet him, so I just waited here." After a pause, he added, "Don't be nervous, I'm not a man-eating tiger." ”
One sentence caused the crowd around to burst into laughter.
The Sichuan man who was Yang Sen's subordinate in the crowd laughed and said, "These subordinates of Commander Luo, when they drove us away just now, are fierce and vicious, and now in front of General Bai, the true Buddha, they have all turned into quails..."
The people around him laughed again, and began to babble sarcastically and ridicule, making the faces of the gendarmes who opened the way flushed.
In the midst of the commotion, a cold snort was suddenly heard, it turned out that at some point, several cars and two large trucks had already driven up to the crowd, five or six officers and dozens of armed gendarmes walked down from the cars, and the remnants of the various units who were laughing and abusing around immediately became silent as if they were stuck in the neck, and even the Sichuan man who had always been bold under Yang Sen shrank into the crowd and disappeared.
Bai Fei knew that the main master was coming, he coughed and looked forward.
I saw that among the officers who got out of the car, a man in his thirties walked in front, and the rest of the people accompanied him like stars and moons. He has the rank of major general, has a moderate figure, wears a big coat, wears white gloves on his hands, looks extraordinary and magnificent, but there is nothing in his eyes, giving people a feeling that there is no one in his eyes.
When the gendarmes who had opened the way saw the major general, they immediately bowed down and ran to him, saluted, and were about to speak, but were dismissed by the officer with a gentle wave of his white gloves.
After sending those soldiers, he set his eyes on Bai Fei who was not far away, and then walked over slowly, and his subordinates also hugged him.
When he walked to a place about 10 meters away from Bai Fei, the major general officer laughed and said loudly: "Presumably, this is the head of the military police regiment directly under the famous Chinese gendarme, General Bai Zhenyu Bai." Introduce yourself, the contemptible surname is Xiong, the name is Jianfei, now he is the commander of the gendarmerie of the Ninth Theater of Operations, and he has heard the name of General Bai for a long time.
While talking, the two were already close, and Xiong Jianfei didn't even take off his gloves, so he stretched out his hand to shake hands with Bai Fei.
Bai Fei frowned slightly, hesitated slightly, but still stretched out his hand, pretended to shake hands with him and exchanged a few words.
After shaking hands, Xiong Jianfei withdrew his hand, looked Bai Fei up and down again, and suddenly said: "It seems that General Bai should not be as old as me, if you don't mind, how about we call each other brothers?" ”
Bai Fei sneered in his heart, brothers are commensurate? Isn't that why I'm going to call you big brother?
He was about to speak, but saw Xiong Jianfei as if he suddenly remembered something, and said: "Oh yes, Brother Bai, when I took office, I heard that the post of commander of the gendarmerie of the Ninth Theater originally belonged to you, but the above suddenly appointed me to take over this position to replace you, brother, and I had to reluctantly accept this errand." Before you were on the front line, it was rare to see each other. That's why I haven't had a handover with you since I took office. It just so happens that the two of us have met now, so let's go through this formalities by the way..."
As he spoke, Xiong Jianfei waved his hand, and a staff member beside him immediately took out a document from the briefcase he carried with him and handed it over.
Xiong Jianfei said with a smile: "Brother Bai, this is the brother's letter of appointment, take a look..."
Bai Fei frowned and took the document, and saw that it was indeed an appointment order issued by the Central Military and Political Department, the content was very simple, only one sentence, namely: "Xiong Jianfei is appointed as the new commander of the gendarmerie of the Ninth Theater, replacing Bai Fei, the former commander of the military police of the Ninth Theater, and is responsible for inspecting and supervising the war in the theater." "Further down, there is the signature and seal, not only the big seal of the Central Military and Political Department, but also the signature of Jiang Zhongzheng.
The most intriguing thing is that the date of issuance of this letter of appointment was when Bai Fei confronted the Japanese army in the Wucheng area a few days ago. It's just that for some reason, neither the Ministry of Military Affairs nor Chiang Kai-shek's chamber of staff has ever passed orders to Bai Fei in any form.
Seeing this genuine appointment order, Bai Fei's thoughts were chaotic for a while, and his heart sank like water. It's not that he is obsessed with power and reluctant to take the position of commander, but this incident can reflect some deeper problems---- he has been marginalized, and even if he is dismissed, he is the last person to know. It seems that Chiang Kai-shek has already had some bad opinions about him, although he does not understand what caused it, but this obvious thing is definitely not wrong.
Bai Fei's expression was complicated and silent, Xiong Jianfei watched his every move in his eyes, and thought that he was sad because he was dismissed. Xiong Jianfei was secretly happy in his heart, so he wanted to taunt him a few more words, so he laughed and said: "The reward and punishment of the commission is also a means of governance, and Brother Bai must not be dissatisfied with the above because of this, and this time your supervision is not effective, which caused the collapse of the defense line of the river, and now you have lost Wu Cheng, such a big mistake, it is only a demotion and a slight punishment, it can be seen that the commission is still in favor of you..."
Bai Fei was furious when he heard this, and was about to have a seizure, but Li Hu and the others who were standing on the side couldn't bear it anymore.
Li Hu scolded angrily: "You don't fart here, how did the defense line of the river collapse, if you don't know the reason, go and check it out, don't talk nonsense if you don't know." We fought desperately to eliminate more than 10,000 Japanese troops on the front line, what the were you doing in the rear? Now it's slandering us. I warn you, don't say what kind of bullshit gendarmerie commander you are now, and don't say that your uncle is the chairman of Jiangxi Province. ”
As he spoke, Li Hu pulled out the pistol on his waist with a gesture.
However, before Li Hu could make any other moves, the dozens of gendarmes around Xiong Jianfei who were responsible for protecting him immediately raised the rifles they were holding in their hands and aimed them at Bai Fei and the others. Standing behind Bai Fei, hundreds of soldiers of the special combat team of the directly subordinate regiment at the front of the entire team also quickly raised the automatic weapons in their hands, and kept moving forward, forming a semi-encirclement, and surrounded Xiong Jianfei and the others in the blink of an eye.
For a while, the sound of AK47 and M16 bolts pulling bullets to load was endless, Xiong Jianfei and the others' expressions changed greatly, looking at the muzzles of hundreds of black holes around them, and the timid ones didn't even dare to come out.
On both sides of the surrounding road, there were originally gathered a lot of remnants of the troops who had withdrawn from the front line, and in order to see the excitement, people kept squeezing in, resulting in more and more people, and the circle became smaller and smaller. For a while, people were constantly squeezed to the ground, screaming and scolding were endless, and the scene became a pot of porridge, which was very lively.
