In fact, Mao Renfeng was able to quickly ascend to the throne at this time and gain the trust of Li Zongjian, and fools can see that it is no longer a matter of two days for him to take refuge in Li Zongjian, and even in the incident of the chairman of the committee, he must have played an indispensable and important role. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 info Otherwise, a former backbone of the military commander, Dai Li's secretary, why would Li Zongjian believe him.

Mao Renfeng gives people the impression of being very loyal and old-fashioned, and he smiles at everyone. When he was a secretary in the Military Command Bureau, he was a well-known "smiling tiger". He never loses his temper. Dai Li's official temper is big, his personality is very violent, he often scolds and beats people for some trivial things, every time he encounters this kind of situation, Mao Renfeng always blames Dai Li, and blames himself for his mistakes, so that the person who is blamed is grateful to him. For some things in which he takes responsibility for others, if the other party does not understand that he helped to make the big things small, and the small things are not timely, he will definitely try to make the other party know. This set of tactics has bought off many military commanders, both large and small. Because Mao Renfeng often intercedes in front of Dai Li, Dai Li often reprimands him for being a "bodhisattva heart", not a big husband, and can't become a big thing, Mao laughed at it.

Is Mao Renfeng really a "bodhisattva heart"? In fact, there is such a scene in the movie "The Founding Ceremony". Mao Renfeng went to the chairman's office to report on his work, and after talking about his work, the chairman suddenly sighed with emotion, saying that he not only had to rush to transport gold and US dollar bills, but also to rush to transport talents, and listed a number of people, including Zhang Yan, Luo Longji, Shi Liang, Weng Wenhao, and Zhu Kelin. Mao Renfeng was suddenly very nervous, and asked for leave to go out to call. The chairman of the committee asked him to call from the phone in his office, and Mao Renfeng had no choice but to contact Mao Sen, the director of the Shanghai Police Department, and only said, "That batch, postpone the process." He added, "No, it's Zhang Lan and Luo Longji." The chairman of the committee said expressionlessly: "I'll talk about it later, you're going to start?" It made Mao Renfeng very embarrassed.

Although this is just a movie episode, it is not groundless, which shows the ruthlessness of Mao Renfeng's killing, killing people is not killed one by one, but by batches.

After a while, Mao Renfeng walked in with a smile on his face, and asked humbly in front of Li Zongjian: "President, are you looking for me?" ”

Li Zongjian's face suddenly flashed with a gloomy color, and said: "Jiang Haoran has arrived in Xuzhou at this moment, ready to assassinate Wang Jingwei, I don't care what method you use, in short, I hope he can't come back!" ”

With the existence of Jiang Haoran, the position of the leader is not stable, and Li Zongjian and the chairman of the committee have the same view, and Li Zongjian is willing to let go of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Mao Renfeng suddenly became agitated, his face changed drastically, but he quickly returned to normal, and the corners of his mouth showed a hint of an imperceptible evil smile, and said: "This matter is easy to do, as long as we reveal his news in Xuzhou to the people of the island country, Jiang Haoran will not be able to escape, this is his own sin." ”

Li Zongjian was not shocked on his face, obviously he had already thought of this, but this was much more reasonable when he came out of Mao Renfeng's mouth, he was a national leader, and what was it to collude with the enemy to settle the party-state's humeral ministers, which was not in line with the identity of a politician, but in line with the filthiness of a politician.

Li Zongjian said: "How to do it is your business, I only want the result." ”

Mao Renfeng nodded heavily, and then left quickly, Li Zongjian took a long breath, as if he had unloaded a thousand catties of burden, and it could be seen that he was not in a relaxed mood when he made this decision, and he smoked a cigarette silently before walking out of the lounge.

Returning to the conference room, Li Zongjian strode onto the rostrum, raised his hands to calm the discussant generals, and said: "An important situation is announced below, because Deputy Commander-in-Chief Jiang Haoran has urgent matters to deal with temporarily and cannot arrive for the time being, before General Jiang Haoran does not return, the commander-in-chief of this battle will be temporarily replaced by Chief of Staff Bai Chongxi." ”

As soon as Li Zongjian's voice fell, there was a sudden sound of questions in the conference room, everyone couldn't understand it, what else was more important than the battle in front of him, what was Jiang Haoran doing?

Putting aside political opinions, in the eyes of everyone, Jiang Haoran is undoubtedly the best candidate for the commander-in-chief of this battle, which is beyond doubt.

Li Zongjian immediately clarified that Jiang Haoran only had something to do temporarily and couldn't get out of his body, and the things in front of him were also for the victory of this battle, but in order to be implemented smoothly, he couldn't reveal it for the time being, and soon after, he would definitely give everyone a big surprise.

In this way, people's hearts are determined.

Bai Chongxi stepped onto the rostrum and began to announce the deployment of the campaign and issue battle orders for all departments.

The troops participating in this campaign included the Wei Lihuang Department of the First Theater, the Yan Xishan Department of the Second Theater, the Li Zongjian Department of the Fifth Theater, the Xue Yue Department of the Ninth Theater, the Jiang Haoran Department of the 40th Group Army, and all of the Eighth Route Army and the New Fourth Army in the entire Hubei-Henan-Anhui region, with a total strength of more than 1.2 million troops.

The scope of operations ranged from Linfen and Yuncheng north of the Yellow River, to Luoyang and Xuchang south of the Yellow River, to Zhoukou, Fuyang, and Hefei, and across the Yangtze River to Chizhou and Xuancheng, and finally to Hangzhou.

The length of the battle line and the number of troops invested can be said to be unprecedented, so it is not too much to say that this battle was a life-and-death battle between Nakajima.

Troop deployment: North of the Yellow River in the second theater of operations, the offensive targets are Linfen and Yuncheng, waiting for an opportunity to advance to Jincheng and Jiaozuo, threatening the Zhengzhou rear defense line of the island army.

The first theater of operations, south of the Yellow River, attacked Luoyang and Xuchang, and the second theater of operations were horns of each other, and the ultimate goal was to take Zhengzhou.

The Fifth Theater, the First Division of the Ninth Theater, most of the Nanshan Independent Army, the New Fourth Army, and the Eighth Route Army had an operational area on the entire northern Anhui front, of which the Fifth Theater and most of the Nanshan Independent Army were targeted at the Zhoukou and Fuyang lines, and the Ninth Theater was united with the New Fourth Army and the Eighth Route Army to attack on the Hefei and Huainan lines.

The main direction of the campaign is also in northern Anhui, and several theaters are advancing in parallel to form an encirclement of Xuzhou, so the troops in northern Anhui are the main attacking forces of this campaign.

The first part of the Ninth Theater and the majority of the 40th Group Army, the operational area was in southern Anhui, and the target of the attack was the line from Chizhou to Xuancheng, and even a small unit set up a position to attack Taizhou and Ningbo and threaten Hangzhou, the purpose of which was to disperse the enemy's forces and relieve pressure on the Xuzhou battlefield.

When the order was issued, the commanders-in-chief of the theaters and the commanders-in-chief of the group armies walked out of the conference room one by one, and they would send the orders to the departments as quickly as possible, and the battle would begin in two days.

Preparations for the Battle of Xuzhou began three months ago, and by now all units had already entered the combat position, waiting for an order, and a vigorous counteroffensive on the whole front would be staged with great fanfare.
