Chapter 1465 The first step to success

December 24, Christmas Eve in the Western calendar. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

At eleven o'clock in the evening, the operation center of the Supreme Command of Cuiping Mountain in Syria was brightly lit.

Beginning on 18 July, after holding a six-day meeting on the reorganization of the army, An Jiajun took a crucial step in the regularization of the troops, formally establishing the General Staff Headquarters, the General Political Department, and the General Logistics Department.

The other five deputy commanders are Hu Jialin, Yin Jinan, Yang Bin, Gu Changfeng, and Cheng Chengguang, all of whom were awarded the rank of general of An Jiajun. Director of the General Political Department was awarded the rank of Lieutenant General of An Jiajun, and Chang Baofang, director of the General Logistics Department, was awarded the rank of Lieutenant General of An Jiajun.

The other members of the General Staff are: Deputy Chief of General Staff Senior General Yang Fei, Senior General Zhao Rui, and Lieutenant General Mu Zhaiyi. Among them, Senior General Zhao Rui is only named in the General Staff Headquarters, and he will remain in Nanjing and continue to serve as director of the Fourth Department of the Central Military Commission, taking overall responsibility for intelligence work.

Major General Fang Pengxiang, former chief of operations of the Anjia Army, strongly requested that the troops be led by the troops, and after discussion and approval at the whole army meeting, Shen Ziling was appointed as the head of the operations department and awarded the rank of major general, and Cheng Shiming was appointed as the deputy director of the operations department and awarded the rank of colonel. Liu Qing was appointed director of the Intelligence Department of the General Staff and was awarded the rank of lieutenant general, and Li Yufu was appointed director of the Communications Department and was awarded the rank of lieutenant general.

Formally set up the first ministry, Ding Zhicheng served as the head of the first department, awarded the rank of general, and currently temporarily under the jurisdiction of the Syrian Provincial Appeasement Office and the southern Yunnan region, Syria, Luzhou, Ziliujing, Zhaotong, Simao, Cheli and other cities set up the first bureau, each county administrative office set up a police station, the township police station, the village level set up a village police.

In addition, the nine armed police divisions under the jurisdiction of the Ministry are stationed in various places according to the newly established divisions, which are called by the outside world: the division level is the armed police corps, the regiment level is the armed police brigade, the battalion level is the armed police detachment, and the company level is the armed police squadron.

The former General Intelligence Bureau was reorganized into the Ministry of State Security, with Du Yi as the Minister of State Security, Shen Fengdao as the deputy chief of the Ministry of State Security, and Wu Zhefu, an electronics expert, as the vice minister.

At present, the Anjia Army has been organized into the first military region-level front army -- the Gu Changfeng Front Army, under the jurisdiction of Wang Xulun's First Group Army, Min Jingxian's Second Group Army, Fu Guanjie's Third Group Army, and the guard army directly under the front army, Xia Jian, Ye Cheng, and Li Jinlong's front army is in the process of being organized, and when Hu Jialin's health is completely improved, the group army with the former independent division and the 40th division as the main body will also be organized to form a new front army.

According to the current establishment, a group army has three motorized infantry divisions under its jurisdiction, and each motorized infantry division has a motorized infantry regiment, two infantry regiments, an artillery regiment, and a special service regiment, and the whole division plus logistics units has 12,000 people, and the nine divisions that have been formed have a total of 108,000 people.

With the continuous formation of the follow-up front army, the An Jia Army will appear on the battlefield with a new look, dealing a fatal blow to any opponent who underestimates the combat power of the An Jia Army.

"Have our people successfully infiltrated Hue?"

An Yi faced a large map of Annam, thought for a long time, and finally fell on the city of Hue on the southeast coast of Annam, and asked out loud.

Intelligence Minister Liu Qing smiled and comforted: "Don't worry, this time the General Staff Operations Department and the Special Operations Command jointly formulated the plan, which was personally led by Colonel Ling Xing, the captain of the Blue Fox Brigade of the Air Force.

"Two days ago, the Air Force carried out an airborne landing in the Dong Yi Mountains, 10 kilometers west of Hue, and all 22 special combat personnel who participated in the mission landed safely, and then safely mixed into Hue City with the help of Brother Hung Xingshe. After more than a day of detailed reconnaissance, we have all the preparations, and we are waiting to launch! ”

An Yi nodded, thought about it carefully, felt foolproof, and when he turned around, he saw that in the hall covering an area of more than 200 square meters, the staff officers were constantly going in and out, and the staff team of up to 100 people was busy and busy, some answered the phone, some marked on the map, some gathered in front of the sand table, pointing, and some kept looking for information to confirm the suspicions in their hearts, and then launched a heated discussion, and couldn't help but shake their heads and laugh dumbly, they were still too cautious!

With mental calculations and unintentional calculations, coupled with the continuous improvement of the staff team that has been cultivated for many years, there is no need to worry about what will happen at all. Take 10,000 steps back, even if something goes wrong, with the current strength of the An Jia Army, it is not afraid of any challenge, with the pitiful strength of the French and the weak combat effectiveness of the Annan Army, it is not enough to stuff the teeth at all!

(Note: The brave name of the Vietnamese army in later generations was cultivated by the revolutionary ancestors, including guerrilla warfare, sports warfare, mine warfare, etc., and the final result was to teach the apprentices to fight the masters, and the blood flowed like a river, and the wisdom of others was achieved.) Prior to this, Annan's army was quite incompetent, not even comparable to the Indian army. ）

......

At half past eleven, Annam Hue.

Hue is the homeland of China, belonging to Lurong County under the jurisdiction of Rinan County, Jiaozhou during the Qin and Han dynasties. Hue is bordered by the Truong Son Mountains in the west and the sea in the east, and the whole city is built on a narrow plain on the bank of the Xiang River, close to the plant-rich mountains - Yuping Mountain, with beautiful and pleasant scenery.

It was late at night, and everything was silent.

Colonel Ling Xing, the captain of the Blue Fox Brigade, like a civet cat, used both hands and feet, climbed the palace wall up to four meters high, and then threw down the rope and picked up his comrades to climb the city wall.

Ling Xing was dressed in a black night suit, a bulletproof vest under the black clothes, a tactical vest on the outside, a helmet on his head, a hood covering his face that only exposed his mouth and eyes, and an automatic rifle in his hand, and the various pouches of the waistcoat were filled with bullet magazines, grenades, first-aid kits and other items.

Twenty-two special combat team members, silently, slid down the rope and slid down the fuchsia wall.

In this day and a half, Ling Xing has already felt the situation of the Hue Imperial Palace clearly - around the palace wall, there are four symbolic forts in the east, west, south and north, and there are buildings in the palace city that imitate the Forbidden City of Beiping, such as the Taihe Palace, the Qinzheng Palace, the Taimiao, the Guozijian, the Secret Courtyard, and the Metropolitan Inspection Palace, but compared with the Forbidden City, the decoration and scale are much smaller. Emperor Bao's harem, palace garden, theater room and other inner court parts, distributed on both sides of the central axis, according to the information, Emperor Bao lived in the Qiancheng Palace, the queen lived in the Kuntai Palace, and the other concubines lived in the Shunhui Courtyard.

Once a vassal of China, the Nguyen Dynasty of Vietnam was divided into three parts in 1884 after it came under French control: the Protectorate of Annam (central), the Protectorate of Tokyo (northern), and the colony of Cochinchina (south), and formed the Federation of French Indochina with the other French protectorates of Indochina (Laos, Cambodia), with the Nguyen Dynasty nominally ruling Annam.

Fifteen years ago, at the age of 10, Prince Nguyen Phuc Vinh Swe was made "Crown Prince" and sent to France to be educated at the Lycée de Condosay and Sciences Po in Paris, where the French Charly, the superintendent of history, took care of his life. A few months later, Nguyen Phuc Vinh Swe's father, King Qi Dinh, died, and on January 8 of the following year, the twelve-year-old Nguyen Phuc Hue ascended the throne in Hue and became King of Annam, with the era name "Bao Da". Subsequently, Paul returned to France to continue his studies. At that time, the government of Annam was under the control of the French colonial regime and was part of French Indochina, so Baoda was long regarded as a symbol of the puppet of the French colonial regime.

Six years ago, when King Bao Da turned 18 years old, the Hue court urged the French to send the king back to Vietnam, but the French believed that the domestic situation in Vietnam was not stable enough, and they had to continue studying in France for at least two years. At that time, many Vietnamese had many expectations for Bao Da's return to China, and liberalized political reforms were expected.

Five years ago, the nineteen-year-old Bao Da returned to Vietnam and began to govern himself, but he soon found out that the army stationed in the palace was the French army, and the appointed attendants were French. Looking at the governance again, any political decision of the Annam court is not approved by the French governor of Annam, there is no possibility of implementation at all, and the group of officials in the court is like a group of puppets, dragged around by the French.

Seeing that there was no hope of grasping real power, Emperor Bao began to be intoxicated with beauty, married Ruan Youlan, who was beautiful and fragrant and had studied in France, as his wife, and was appointed as Queen Lan Fang, married his cousin Hu, and was named Concubine Ying, and then drafted women into the palace in the whole territory of Annam.

Therefore, no one was surprised when Ling Xing and the others saw that all the French soldiers patrolling in the palace were arrogant French soldiers, this is the sadness of being a puppet, Pu Yi is like this, Emperor Bao is like this, and even the later French Vichy government is like this.

Ling Xing led the soldiers to quickly rush to the Qiancheng Hall in the night, and along the way, he put the French army sentry to the ground.

Unfortunately, a French major, with a platoon of soldiers, had just come out of Emperor Bao's harem, and his face was still flushed with pleasure.

The French major was savoring the aftertaste, sighing that the waist of the Annan woman was so thin, the skin was so white and smooth, and there was a faint fragrance in the body between pleasures, which was many times better than his girlfriend with thick pores and sweaty sweat in Paris, and he was secretly proud that he wore dozens of green hats to Emperor Bao tonight.

At this time, the major suddenly felt that something was wrong with the situation, because the indigenous people of the colonies in South Asia and Southeast Asia rose up ***, and the French colonial government of Annam was worried that Emperor Bao would be used by people with intentions, so he strictly ordered to strengthen the "protection" of the Hue Palace, and the major set up many secret posts on the way from the barracks of the palace to the harem, if it was in the past, those guys must have appeared with a lewd smile, and while approaching themselves, they asked familiar friends how the woman who slept with the king of Annam felt wonderfully, But now none of these usually noisy bastards are gone, and it is clear that something is wrong.

The major casually leaned down, pretending to tie his shoelaces, and at the moment of bending, he suddenly pulled out the pistol at his waist, aimed it at the dark place between the house and the corridor, fired several shots, and then quickly lay down and shouted "enemy attack".

The entire Hue Palace suddenly became agitated, and countless torches lit up and pressed towards the place where the gunshots came.

Ling Xing, who was hiding in the shadows, saw that the situation was not good, rushed out of the corner of the darkness, and aimed at the French soldiers led by the French major was a burst of strafing.

Immediately six or seven French soldiers with rifles and preparing to load them all fell to the ground, lying in a pool of blood, and the machine gunners behind them were in a hurry, holding the general-purpose machine gun and jumping out, moving left and right while strafing, avoiding the occasional bullets fired in front of them.

Under the swift and decisive blows of twenty-two elite special soldiers, the short battle soon came to an end, although the French major had long been lying on the ground, but now he had a grenade as a melee weapon, one of the grenades fell right on his body, and a bloody hole was blown out of his body, and his head and limbs were gone, which was extremely terrifying.

The Blue Fox Brigade, which had no casualties, stepped over about fifty corpses that had not yet cooled down and continued to advance. Along the way, he successively killed three waves of French troops in platoons, and successfully approached the gate of Qiancheng Palace.

This kind of appearance is inlaid with a layer of iron thick wooden door, not human can push open, heavy firepower is not nonsense, carry the bazooka, aimed at the palace door is a bomb, "boom" a loud sound, the tall wooden door was opened a hole, but unfortunately the hole is too small, can not pass people, heavy firepower hand and loaded a rocket, shot out again, with the smoke steaming, this hole is big enough.

The soldiers rushed in, and the eunuchs and palace maids in the palace had already been awakened by the noise outside, and were putting on their clothes and coming out to visit, seeing that the special soldiers led by Ling Xing were dressed strangely, eerie and terrifying, and murderous, and hurriedly scattered.

A special forces member who was familiar with Vietnamese strode forward, grabbed a palace maid wearing Ao Dai and fell down in panic, and asked sharply: "Which room does Emperor Bao live in?" ”

The little palace maid, who was good-looking, just trembled vigorously, shed tears, and begged bitterly in Chinese with a southwestern accent: "Don't, don't kill me...... I don't know anything......"

Ling Xing squatted *** and said comfortingly in Sichuanese: "Little girl, take us to Emperor Bao, I guarantee your personal safety, we are Chinese, we will not do anything to you!" ”

"Huh? Were you sent by the Chinese government to save Annan from the sea of suffering? I know where the lord lives, please come with me! The little palace maid hurriedly stood up, wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, and led Ling Xing and the others around the small courtyard of the cloister, stopping in front of a main house with a hovering golden dragon carved on the pillars.

Ling Xing flew up and kicked open the fragile carved wooden door, and several special combat team members rushed in with submachine guns in their hands, and saw that the door of the inner room had been opened, and a young man in a dragon robe pushed the door out, and a noble-looking woman next to him supported him, and there was a bit of inviolable awe-inspiring momentum.

The young man in the dragon robe was slightly taken aback when he saw the outfit of the special combat team, and then slowly walked in front of Ling Xing and the others without fear, and came to a dragon chair in the middle of the hall and sat down.

Before the special combat team members carried out their mission, they had all seen the photos and knew that this young man was Emperor Bao, who was worthy of having studied in France, and was well-informed, so calm and calm. The woman beside him was Ruan Youlan, who was revered as Empress Lan Fang. Thinking of all the rumors he had heard about her in Hue City, Ling Xing couldn't help but look at her more, only to feel that her charm was naturally sultry, and secretly sighed that Annan's water and soil could give birth to such a beauty.

Ling Xing looked at his watch, it was almost twelve o'clock, and the great uprising was about to break out all over Annam, so he stepped forward, raised his hand and gave a military salute, and said in Vietnamese: "The lord of the country is frightened, we are patriots and righteous men of Annam, and the night attack on the palace is to enable the imperial court to reform the political system from top to bottom and develop the economy, so that Annam can regain its strength and get rid of the rule of the French colonists!" ”

Emperor Bao listened expressionlessly, his heart filled with the shame and anger of being captured, speculating about the use of these strangely dressed people to catch him.

Outside, the gunfire was loud, and the French team was attacking the Qiancheng Palace, but because the breach in the temple gate was too small, it could only accommodate one or two people to enter, and the special team members did not spend much effort, two machine guns and two automatic rifles, and hundreds of French troops were blocked outside the temple gate.

The French did not prepare artillery in the palace, not even mortars, so although the French commander was anxious to jump up and down, he had already paid hundreds of lives in a short period of time, and there was still no way to break through the obstruction of the temple gate.

Ling Xing saw that Emperor Bao didn't react at all, thinking that he couldn't speak well, scratched his head, and said in Yue again: "I'm sorry, my lord, there will be an uprising in Hue City soon, and I am only here to protect your safety, and when the uprising is successful, I will have a detailed interview with you." ”

"Presumptuous!"

Emperor Bao actually reprimanded him in standard Beiping official dialect, his eyes full of disdain.

As the nominal monarch of Annam, Emperor Bao could not imagine and could not tolerate himself being caught by a group of people of unknown origin in the heavily guarded palace and in his own bedroom, of course, more of a weak heart, he had seen too many examples of revolution from ancient and modern Chinese and foreign history books, those dignitaries of the emperor, king, princes and nobles, once they were caught, the chance of going to the guillotine was at least five to five. In order to hide his heart, Emperor Bao raised his chin and looked at Ling Xing and the others proudly, as if no matter how big the wind and waves were, he could not shake his dignity as the king of Annam.

Hearing the other party's fluent official language, and then thinking about the little palace maid he met on the road, Ling Xing couldn't help but sigh, Annan really has a deep relationship with China, and the Ruan Dynasty that circulated before regarded the official language as an official language and required the people to master it It doesn't seem to be nonsense, and there is no need to worry about the fact that An Jiajun can't communicate with the people when he goes south in the future.

At that moment, Ling Xing changed his official dialect and continued to communicate with Emperor Bao:

"Lord, are you willing to continue to be a puppet? Put your net worth, fate, and future in the hands of others, and put on a muddy and embarrassing appearance at any time, otherwise you will be pinched to death like an ant, and gently take away everything from you. I think the lord of the kingdom should know how your father died, right? He is only in his twenties, and he is dying, and your grandfather has only been the lord of the country for a few years, since the French came, your ancestors, as long as they are adults, there will be all kinds of accidents, so almost all monarchs are young monarchs, and few live to the prime of life, can't you still see through the conspiracy of the French from these clues? What they need is an absolutely obedient puppet who will be ruthlessly eliminated by them at the slightest move.

"Also, just now we were on the way to the lord's dormitory, guess what you saw? Those French people came out of the palace of the princess and concubine, all of them in rags, and their faces were full of spring tides, as a man, can you bear this great shame? Or maybe you just like the tune......"

"Nope! Please, don't say it! ”

Emperor Bao's face changed drastically, large tears suddenly fell from his eyes, and he stroked his face that was convulsed and deformed by hatred, and lowered his head in pain.

Lanfang Empress Ruan Youlan looked at Ling Xing for a long time, and suddenly asked, "Then how do we know that in cooperation with you, will you cross the river and tear down the bridge afterwards?" As far as I know, many revolutionary groups in Annam are now guided by the anti-imperialist and anti-feudal overthrow of the imperial court, and once our use value is squeezed out by you and you help your rebellion to achieve victory, my husband and I may be guillotined by you, and it is better to maintain the status quo than to be in a dilemma of life and death, at least the French will have to rely on us to maintain their apparent legitimate rule. ”

Ling Xing couldn't help but admire the wisdom and wisdom of the woman in front of him, and thought for a while: "The lord of the country, the queen, you are all extremely smart people, and you have received modern education, I think the reason why the lord of the country has become the way he is now, it is estimated that he is following the example of Liu Chan, the emperor of Shu Han of the Three Kingdoms in history, right?" His country was ruined, and he was plundered to the capital of the enemy country, and in order to show that his people and animals were harmless, he even said the words "I can't think of it here".

"But the lord of the country has not yet been at home, at the beginning of the pro-government, he was busy with reforms, although in the end wisely chose to give up, but the French are obviously very wary of this, as long as the queen or any of the concubines give birth to a boy, the life of the lord of the country is in danger, what is easier to control than a baby? What is especially worrying is that those French soldiers are acting arbitrarily in the palace, and there may even be a ridiculous thing that the bloodline of the Nguyen Dynasty is cut off from the lord of the country!

"Lord, Empress, I don't shy away from saying that we do have the use of your elements in it, after all, your symbolism is greater than your own strength, if any revolutionary party or group is in power, you will inevitably go to the fate of the guillotine, after all, the last emperor of the Qing Dynasty of China, Pu Yi, no one wants to commit it again, so you can only save yourself and decisively choose to cooperate with us."

"Why can't Annan be a constitutional monarchy? Like the UK, isn't there no problem? Emperor Bao raised his head and muttered helplessly.

Before Ling Xing could figure out how to answer, Ruan Youlan had already answered on his behalf: "Your Majesty, all the countries with successful constitutional monarchies in history are all countries where the power of the royal family is deep-rooted, and the emerging bourgeoisie cannot eliminate the forces loyal to the royal family for the time being, so they can only choose to compromise with the royal family to achieve the goal of building the country together." But the situation in Annan is different, since the French invasion, too many young sons of heaven have died unexpectedly, it can be said that there is not even the slightest basis for holding real power, even if the French are driven away, what bargaining chips can we have to compete with our political opponents? ”

"No, I have! I have an army! There are 200,000 troops in Annam, and I am the commander-in-chief of the Annam army, and they are all under my orders, and I can give orders that anyone who disobeys my orders will be sent to the gallows! Emperor Bao suddenly gritted his teeth and said.

Ruan Youlan shook her head: "Your Majesty, it is only the army that belongs to you in name, and they are controlled ......by the French."

Before Empress Lan Phuong's words fell, there was a sudden deafening sound of guns and cannons in Hue City, and then shouts of killing were everywhere, red flags fluttered, and tens of thousands of revolutionaries picked up the guns provided by the An Jia Army, first occupied the arsenal, and then rushed towards the barracks of the French and Annam troops in the city.

There was a fierce exchange of fire between the revolutionaries and the French and Annam armies, and the sky in the distance was almost red with artillery fire.

Standing in front of the window, Emperor Bao and Ruan Youlan turned pale, and the helplessness and frustration in their hearts were increasing. Outside Emperor Bao's dormitory, the French army, which was originally bent on attacking the Qiancheng Palace, has dispersed, and the entire palace seems to be like a flat boat in the sea, which may be capsized by huge waves at any time.

Emperor Bao suddenly turned his head and said to Ling Xing, who was standing beside him, "Say, how can I cooperate with you?" What do I get when it's done? Let me first say well, if you can't guarantee the safety of my family and my family's personal and property, I will not agree to any of your requests, and everyone will die together. ”

Ling Xing nodded, leaned closer and whispered, the more Emperor Bao listened, the more surprised he became, after listening to it, he glanced at Ruan Youlan, who was also shocked, and Emperor Bao suddenly smiled: "Aren't you afraid that I will announce your plan to the outside world?" ”

Ling Xing said confidently: "The lord of the country is a smart person, and I don't think the lord of the country will do anything that is not beneficial to others or himself." I think in today's world, who is more reliable than us if it is a wheel of reputation? When it comes to wealth, who doesn't know our abundance? For His Majesty, Annan is like chicken ribs, tasteless food, and it is a pity to abandon it, so it is better to sell it at a good price.

"In my opinion, what kind of national independence and what ideology, it's all nonsense, whoever feeds the people, the people will follow whom, besides, the place where the lord of the country is standing now originally belonged to China, what is the fault of recognizing the lord and returning to the sect? Of course, there must be a lot of brains in it, so we need the lord to step up and cooperate with us to help channel. Please rest assured that the Lord and the Queen will fulfill our promise with my personality. ”

Ruan Youlan was greatly moved, and touched Emperor Bao's arm: "Your Majesty, just agree." It is much better to cooperate with them than with the French and those revolutionaries, and with such elite protection for you and me, you don't have to worry about sleeping well at night! ”

Emperor Bao listened to the louder and louder gunfire outside the palace, and finally nodded slowly.
