The connection between the Beida Battalion and the outside world was all cut off, and Xu Qingyun, the commander of the 620th Regiment, led his troops to fight bloodily with the devils. Hearing the news, Rong Zhen sat on the chair and thought: It's over, the national war? The thought flashed through his mind. This Xu Er was stunned, why did he do it with the Japanese without having any sense of the overall situation? To me, Chief of Staff, where? Where is the young marshal, and where is the national government? But he vented his dissatisfaction a little in his heart, and when he looked back, wasn't what Xu Erzi did the same thing that he, the chief of staff, wanted to do but couldn't do at the moment? It seems that to deal with the unreasonable Japanese, you have to allow people like Erzi to come out!

Just this afternoon, that nasty Japanese consul general, Hayashi Kujiro, came to the office to make final negotiations with him on the matter of the Nakamura incident. That unreasonable and arrogant appearance made Rong Zhen grit his teeth and want to shout: It's too shameless! "Japanese soldiers have always been tyrannical and act without diplomatic instructions, which is the style of the Ministry of the Army!" Hayashi Kujiro's diplomacy is almost like that of a bandit. "You soldiers are tyrannical? Our soldiers are not very good-tempered, they have no protection or photos, they trespass into the reclamation area without permission to draw pictures and make disrespectful remarks, and they will not let him get out of China alive! Rong Zhen ignored Lin Jiuzhi's angry Tie Qing's face and competed with him.

Before leaving, Hayashi Kujiro threw a sentence to Rong Zhen very boringly: "You are responsible for the breakdown of Japan-China friendly relations!" Rong Zhen smiled slightly: "Mr. Consul, go slowly, don't send it!" "Relationship breakdown? Was the relationship good before? Rong Zhen did not show weakness on his lips. But he felt uncomfortable! Zhang Xueliang dragged the sick body and said to him like a hammer in his heart: "Don't resist, you must back down in case of trouble!" "This chief of staff, who usually gives ideas to others, hopes that someone will come to him at this time! If you don't resist, you have to back down in case of trouble, but there has to be a degree to this, right? The Japanese knives have been cut off from our heads, and we have to back down? Could it be that blind concessions will make the Japanese stop?

Rong Zhen pondered for a long time before grabbing the phone and calling Zhao Zhenfan back: "Order the 620 Regiment not to fall in love with the battle and break through quickly!" The brutality of the Japanese will be dealt with by the national government. Originally, Rong Zhen wanted to call Beiping again and ask the young marshal what he meant. But after thinking about it, forget it, isn't the meaning of the young marshal obvious? It's a vain question to ask, this young marshal! Rong Zhen shook his head secretly. Just when Rong Zhen was helpless, the secret telegram received a telegram from Nanjing: "Approve the note of the Japanese legation, open inside: The Ministry of War is the emperor of tomorrow, and the customs are approved. The Eastern Army exercised freely in the South Manchurian annex. At that time, I hope that our army will stick to the defensive ground, and do not act rashly, so as not to misunderstand. ”

"It turned out to be a drill, this Japanese is really, hey, no, this Japanese exercise, Xu Qingyun led his troops to resist a fart?" Tibetan Shiyi put down half of his heart and lifted it again. Rong Zhen looked at the sweat in his head and snorted coldly. Do you need to ask? The Japanese took advantage of the drill to do it. At this time, Wang Yizhe, the commander of the Seventh Brigade, broke in breathlessly: "Chief of Staff, the Japanese have attacked our Beida Battalion on a large scale, the 619th Regiment and the 621st Regiment have withdrawn to Jinzhou under the leadership of the brigade staff, only the 620th Regiment is surrounded by a lone army in Beidaying, and the herald cannot convey the order, please ask the chief of staff to show me, what should I do?" "What to do? I don't know what to do! The 620 regiment is left to fate! Ay! Rong Zhen slammed the table very helplessly! As a soldier, he can't resist the invasion of the bandits, he can only blindly endure and retreat, how can he match the military uniform on his body? How can they be worthy of their fathers and villagers who support them with their hard-earned money?

At half past six in the morning of September 19, 1931, Xu Qingyun woke up in a bump: "Big Tiger! "Here!" The horsewhip that Sun Dahu threw in his hand saluted Xu Qingyun. Xu Qingyun picked his ears: "Can you make a small noise?" I'm not deaf yet, sir! You've got a lot of skills, huh? You dare to faint in this group, do you want to be the head of this group? Go, get Counselor Du for me. The big tiger ran away, and after a while, Du Lei's face was covered with dust, and his left arm was hanging on his chest and standing in front of Xu Qingyun. Seeing this appearance, Xu Qingyun's prepared sharp and mean words immediately swallowed back into his stomach. "Is the injury serious?" For Du Ping stealing his limelight, Xu Qingyun was angry. How could Duret not see it? Don't look at Xu Qingyun's face as unhappy, but since last night's battle, the brothers of the 620 Regiment have already recognized this regiment leader! took the guard platoon to fight with the devils, and killed a few devils with his own hands, is there such a young master? This is the case in China, as long as these ordinary soldiers are not afraid of death and take them to fight with devils, they will die at the gunpoint of the enemy without regrets!

"Are all the wounded arranged?" Xu Qingyun looked at Du Lei. "The seriously injured have been arranged for treatment nearby, and all the minor injuries are here!" Durey replied crisply. Because he knew that once Xu Qingyun asked about the things in the group, he couldn't rub the sand in his eyes. Xu Qingyun looked back and saw that there were more than a thousand people, and now there were less than six hundred people left. This 620 regiment will not be canceled, right? Xu Qingyun was taken aback by his own thoughts. No, how can you not cancel the establishment, the remaining nearly 600 people are their own team, they are all baptized in blood, and those who are seriously injured, when they return from injury, they will be veterans of the war, this is a valuable wealth, how can the establishment be easily canceled? The boss didn't give money, and Lao Tzu got his own money to support the team, so it was a big deal to start from a small warlord. Xu Qingyun thought a little too much, now that the national government is also full of warlords of various factions, where can he be allowed to intervene? Isn't that messy enough? At this time, Xu Qingyun and his entourage had already left Fengtian for more than 50 kilometers, and there were still more than 100 kilometers to go to Jinzhou.

Just as Xu Qingyun was on his way to Jinzhou, General Minamijiro, the Minister of War in Tokyo, who had a good dream, was woken up by a hurried phone ringing. These damn guys don't even get a good night's sleep. For those uneasy subordinates, Minamijiro really wanted to strangle them. "Your Excellency, General. The Eastern Army is in an emergency, something big is happening in Manchuria, please go to the military headquarters quickly! "Nani? Minamijiro jumped to the floor at once. Although he has always advocated the use of force to solve the Manchurian problem, these guys from the Kwankwan and Eastern armies are too anxious, right? You've got to let me know in advance, huh? During this time, he was often blamed by the cabinet for the problems in Manchuria. Minamijiro didn't even bother to pay attention to the cabinet's accusations, and these cabinet literati politicians were too weak and conservative. He praised the words of the old-timer Yoshiichi Tanaka: If you want to conquer China, you must first conquer Manchu and Mongolia; If you want to conquer the world, you must first conquer China!

Almost the same as in history, at seven o'clock, the heart of the Japanese army, which shook human civilization in the 20th century, gathered in one place and hastily convened an emergency meeting of the Japanese Army's Ministry of War and the General Staff Headquarters, which were the nerve centers of the war. Behind Minamijiro, a huge plaster flag hangs above the wall, and on his right hand sits in order: Lieutenant General Sugiyama Mototo, Vice Minister of the Ministry of the Army, Lieutenant General Kuniaki Koshiko, Director of the Military Affairs Bureau, and Daisa Nagata Tetsuyama, Chief of the Military Division. Left hand: Lieutenant General Shigeharu Ninomiya, Deputy Chief of Staff Headquarters, and Minister of General Affairs Ume. Major General Tsumijiro, Major General Toranosuke Hashimoto, Minister of Intelligence, and Imamura Junosa, Acting Chief of the War Department, while Minamijiro was directly opposite the Chief of Staff, General Kanaya Nobuzo. Because of the suddenness of the incident, most people did not know what was going on, and the serious conference room began to talk to each other. Minamijiro and Kanaya nodded to each other, signaling the meeting to preside, Lieutenant General Shigeharu Ninomiya, to start the meeting.

Ninomiya Shigeharu immediately instructed Imamura Daisa to read out to the participants the telegram from the Kansai and Eastern Army: "1. At 10:20 p.m. on the evening of the 18th, the troops of the Northern Camp of Mukden destroyed the Manchurian Iron Line, attacked our garrison, and assassinated Lieutenant General Miji Kenkawa and Hanaya Masasa, and the 2nd Brigade of our Mukden Garrison was in the process of dispatching to the scene. Second, the squadron retreated into the Beida camp, and our 2nd brigade was fighting hard. Third, the staff officers of Ban and Yuan made the following arrangements: 1. The 2nd Garrison Brigade swept away the enemy in the Beida Battalion; 2. The 29th Infantry Wing attacked Mukden City; 3. The 5th Garrison Brigade defended the 2nd Brigade and commanded the attack on the north side of the Beidaying; 4. Request the main support of the 2nd Division! ”

After the telegram was read, it was different from the silence of the scene in history, like an explosion of the pot. In particular, the attack on Lieutenant General Miji Kenkawa made these generals who were full of militaristic ideas of conquering China by force shout like a pack of irritable mad dogs that they must give the people of China a little color, although Miji Jianchuan was there to prevent the incident from happening. But the assassination of a lieutenant general and minister made the empire lose face. At this time, even Kanaya Fan San, who was not so supportive of resolving the Manchurian issue by force, had no way to oppose it, and agreed to the plan of his subordinates to solve the problem by force. As a result, less than half an hour after the start of the meeting, it ended with a surprising unanimity? The meeting decided on the army policy of military occupation of Northeast China, and sent the DPRK and Xian divisions to provide emergency support, and urgently mobilized two divisions and regiments to increase the number of troops in Manchuria.

At around 10 a.m., a cabinet meeting was held at the Prime Minister's Office. Miji Kenkawa's attack and Minamijiro's generous statement made the cabinet members in the audience quite angry, and almost all agreed to the proposal to increase the number of troops in the northeast of China as Nanjiro had expected. And the next foreign minister's speech almost poured a scoop of cold water on the boiling cauldron. Compared with the large-scale practice of the Kansai and Eastern Army, the foreign affairs of the Bihara were quite popular, and they hurried to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs without even eating breakfast. "I, a foreign minister, have to know about such a big event through the newspaper, do you still have a cabinet in the eyes of your military department? Should your military department be canceled if it is so weak and powerless? In the end, the foreign minister pointed the finger at the military department, Guan. Eastern Army. This is probably the first time that such a direct criticism has been made at a cabinet meeting. At this time, Minamijiro and Kanaya Fanzo were so embarrassed that they almost hung their heads into their crotch!

However, in the end, the weak cabinet decided to deal with the situation without escalating the situation. After returning to the General Staff Headquarters in the afternoon, Kanaya Bunzo immediately convened a ministerial meeting. As for the cabinet's policy, the generals of the General Staff Headquarters can be said to be happy in their hearts. This is because the implementation of such a policy is simply an act of supporting the Khan and Eastern armies in disguise. The purpose of such a tactic of sharing responsibility is nothing more than to cover up the authorities' guilt in provoking the war, thereby paving the way for them to launch a war of aggression.

The dawn of Mukden on September 19 was not quiet.

When the early morning sun shone on the ancient city wall of Mukden again, the little blood stains looked extremely hideous. More than 500,000 people in Mukden ushered in a new day amid the terrifying sound of gunfire. When they cautiously opened the door, they saw a group of ghostly soldiers walking down the street carrying rifles with cold light bayonets, and the streets and alleys were all hung with Japanese plaster flags at once? And what about our Northeast Army? What about our soldiers who are supported by our blood and sweat? Countless pairs of eyes watched helplessly and painfully at this unbelievable scene.
