On 9 June, Umezu Yoshijiro, commander of the Tianjin Garrison Army, submitted a memorandum to He Yingqin, chairman of the Beiping Military Branch, a number of treaties to which he must reply within three days, and the contents of the treaties were almost identical to those previously proposed to the Beiping Military Branch.

During this period, four members of the Japanese army's secret service conducted military surveying and mapping from Duolun to Zhangbei, and were quickly arrested by the local garrison, and the four *** spies were detained by the local garrison because they did not carry their passports and any identity certificates.

After Song Zheyuan, chairman of Chahar Province, learned that the captives were *** people, he urgently ordered the garrison to be released, but the Japanese army immediately took advantage of the normal security inspection behavior of the squadron to provoke the "Zhangbei Incident", and brazenly demanded that the *** government must publicly apologize to the Japanese army, remove the officers related to the incident, and ensure that *** and Manchurian nationals can act in Chahar Province in the future, and at the same time cancel the *** organization in Chahar Province, establish the Hebei East African Armed Zone, and the 29th Army retreats from this area. It also demanded that the Chinese side stop migrating to Chahar Province, and the chairman of Chahar Province, Song Zheyuan, was immediately removed from his post.

At the same time, the Kwantung Army, which had already occupied most of the Rehe and Chahar areas, immediately pressed the border with a large number of troops, putting on an offensive posture, and frightened the Beiping Army Branch to quickly send Qin Dechun and Xiao Zhenying to meet with the head of the Japanese secret service, Kenji Tohihara, and flew back to Nanjing under the condition that Kenji Tohihara had to solve the problem within 24 hours, and finally flew back to Beiping with the "return training" made by the special meeting of the Central Committee presided over by Wang Jingwei, and after negotiations with the Japanese side, Qin Dechun, Chen Juesheng, Lei Shourong, Kenji Tohihara, and Takahashitan signed to reach another *** Agreement:

(1) The border between Recha and Chacha was changed to be garrisoned by security teams, and the troops retreated; (2) The party affairs of the province have ceased to be active, and the special organs have been cancelled; (3) Formally apologize to the Japanese side; (4) Stop the migration of Shandong Province to the Zhangbei area; (5) The measures shall be implemented within two weeks after being agreed.

On July 6, He Yingqin finally fully agreed to all the demands put forward by Umezu Mijiro of the Tianjin garrison in the form of a formal reply, and the full content of the reply letter was:

I would like to refer, on June 9, Chief of Staff Sakai promised to do so. and the voluntary period of its implementation, hereby notified.

Sincerely, Your Excellency Commander Umezu

He Yingqin

July 6, 24th year of the Republic of China

After the news came out, the whole country was full of grief, and the whole country was extremely angry at the government for repeatedly signing the treaty, and the people from all walks of life who were heartbroken finally set off a wave of opposition that affected major cities across the country.

On 9 July, the Shanghai court sentenced Du Chongyuan, editor-in-chief of Xinsheng Weekly, to one year and two months in prison for "disrespecting the Japanese emperor," and made a final verdict that no appeal, no suspended sentence, and no fine should be used to offset the crime.

The national press is finally outraged!

Beginning on 10 July, most of the country's newspapers began to launch fierce criticism and condemnation of the central and local governments, and more than 5,000 journalists in Shanghai launched ****** activities, and tens of thousands of patriotic people poured out of their homes to join the ranks of condemnation.

Wu Tiecheng, the mayor of Shanghai, was surrounded by countless angry people in the office building, and at a loss for what to do, he urgently telegraphed the central government to ask for a concrete solution.

Just when Wu Tiecheng received a reply from Wang Jingwei in the name of the Central Party Department instructing the dispatch of military police to go all out, a young man wearing a lieutenant colonel's military uniform came to Wu Tiecheng's office to ask for a meeting.

When Wu Tiecheng heard that the person who came was Chen Jinming, the person in charge of the Shanghai Station of the Fourth Department of the General Staff Headquarters, he immediately went out to greet him and invited him into the office.

Chen Jinming took out a letter from his briefcase and handed it to Wu Tiecheng, Wu Tiecheng saw that the name on the payment was An Yi, and he felt bad in his heart, hurriedly opened it and hurriedly read it, pondered for a long time, and called the secretary: "Stop the preparations for the expulsion operation, accept the *** letter and petition submitted by the Journalists' Association, and tell the reporters, I will accept their request and immediately send all the documents they submitted to the Central Committee *** meeting." ”

The secretary was very surprised, but after glancing at Chen Jinming, who was showing a look of relief next to him, he still turned around and went out to strictly enforce Wu Tiecheng's order.

Half an hour later, tens of thousands of people removed the encirclement of the Shanghai Municipal Government and drove to the outer areas of the Japanese Concession in an orderly manner, starting another round of protests against Japan.

Chen Jinming took Wu Tiecheng's promise, thanked Wu Tiecheng again and again, and then left quietly.

On the evening of July 10, the base camp of the Anjia Army in Syria.

The generals in the hall shouted insults, angry and angry, Yang Bin and Ye Cheng looked at each other helplessly, and continued to drink tea, Wu Liheng, the former commander of the 17th Army's *** Division, who had already taken office as the commander of the Yichang Joint Logistics Command, did not say a word, buried his head in smoking.

Under the indignation of the news of the signing of the agreement, the withdrawal of the North China garrison from the station to the south, and the revocation of the headquarters of the 17th Army Corps by the central government and the first order, everyone was full of fire, not to mention that the Japanese planes suddenly appeared in the sky over Baoding, in the name of "monitoring the retreat of the Central Army", conducting military reconnaissance of the 17th Army, and the angry Hu Jialin and the generals of the 17th Army were surrounded by the central special task force and He Yingqin and others who gathered in the Baoding camp, and strictly ordered Hu Jialin not to make any radical reaction.

With such a coarse government and such brutal oppression, how can the generals and colonies of the An Jiajun who have a clear distinction between love and hatred and are full of ambition to serve the country endure it?

"Commander—"

The conference room quickly quieted down under the loud report of the star officer, An Yi entered the conference room and stopped a few steps, glanced at a circle of brothers with murderous faces, raised his steps again, walked to the top of the long table, and did not raise his head after sitting down, and casually ordered: "Meeting!" ”

……

At 9:40 a.m. the next day, three Japanese reconnaissance planes swaggered over the Xushui Railway in the northeast of Baoding City.

On the open and humble platform, Guan Linzheng and his generals all had gloomy faces and were extremely sad and indignant, looking at the formation of Japanese reconnaissance planes flying arrogantly from north to south in the sky, gritting their teeth.

Suddenly, a familiar sound of anti-aircraft antiaircraft guns came from the crowd, and the officers and men of the 25th Division in the entire station immediately looked nervously to the south, only to see two of the three Japanese planes belching smoke coming out of their buttocks, drawing a clear arc in the sky, and the other one quickly rose high and fled eastward.

The platform was suddenly boiling, and the roars and applause were deafening.

Guan Linzheng shouted, "The beard is so fucking good!" Before the words fell, the six silver fighters jumped out of the clouds in a two-two formation, and the two fighters caught up with the fleeing enemy planes at lightning speed and opened fire in unison, and in the blink of an eye, the enemy planes exploded in the air, and the two other four silver fighters launched a siege on the two crumbling enemy planes, and the angry rain of machine shells smashed one of them to pieces, and the two pilots on the other enemy plane abandoned the plane and parachuted, and the enemy plane dragging the smoke let out a huge wailing sound and plunged headlong to the earth.

The 12,000 officers and men of the 25th Division cheered in unison and danced in unison on the three special trains, and roars such as "Brother An Jiajun has a kind" and "Kill the little *** raised by the son of a bitch" came and went.

Amid the cheers, six fighters completed their mission and turned around and flew south, and more than a dozen silver fighters flew quickly, two of which lowered their altitude, circled over the station, and shook their wings a few times to fly west again.

Brigade commanders Zhang Yaoming and Liang Kai exclaimed loudly, "It's Senior Brother An's Air Force", Guan Linzheng clenched his fists and shouted excitedly: "Senior Brother An, you really have a kind!" I knew you wouldn't give in...... All departments immediately boarded the car, quickly rushed to Baoding Station, arrived in Baoding, all the brothers did not leave, we want to work with the bearded brothers of the 17th Army, and happily fight with the Japanese invaders! ”

Zhang Yaoming immediately stepped forward: "Master, do you immediately telegraph Brother Dayun (Huang Jie) who is walking in front, and ask the second senior brothers to stop retreating south and join the war together?" ”

Guan Linzheng smiled confidently: "No need, Brother Dayun must have gotten the secret message from Senior Brother An, it is estimated that he is rushing back from Shijiazhuang at this time, haha...... Board the bus and set off, go straight to Baoding! ”

The trains continued to move south, and what they saw along the way opened the eyes of Guan Linzheng and his soldiers and inspired them:

Thousands of brothers of the 17th Army, heavily armed, had already occupied the commanding heights along the way, and the rare new assault vehicles, anti-aircraft artillery trucks, and heavy artillery towed by ten-wheeled military trucks were neatly lined up and slowly marching north.

Liang Kai, who was very familiar with the equipment of the An Jiajun, blurted out "assault brigade", Guan Linzheng stared at the mechanized equipment outside the car window with green eyes, and couldn't help muttering:

"Grandma's! After this battle, I see how you An Yi thank me......"

Baoding Military Station Battalion, Headquarters of the 17th Army.

He Yingqin, under the watchful eyes of Xu Tingyao and other central commissioners and members of the Beiping Army Branch, either quietly watched the changes or panicked, and once again issued an order to Hu Jialin, who was full of indifference:

"Commander Hu, I warn you for the last time, immediately revoke the order for all-arms warfare, and immediately stop mobilizing Shijiazhuang's Zhang Chengzhu Division to the north, otherwise you Hu Jialin will be responsible for all the consequences of triggering a full-scale war between China and Japan!"

Hu Jialin stood up calmly: "Chief He, I only accept the jurisdiction of the Central Military Commission, and do not accept the command of your Beiping Army Branch. Again, your military and political department cannot interfere in my military operations, and if you have any opinions, you can only convey them to me through the General Staff Headquarters. Someone's coming...... Drop-off! ”

He Yingqin, who has always regarded himself as the No. 2 person in the army, did not expect Hu Jialin to dare to issue an order to expel customers, his white face suddenly turned purple, he gritted his teeth and said three "good" words in a row, and left angrily, and the leader of the Beiping Army Branch also followed in a panic.

Xu Tingyao, who stayed behind from the central special task force, sighed frequently, Xu Tingyao, who returned from a European inspection and continued to serve as the director of the Baoding camp, had only left Baoding for less than three months, but he did not expect that the situation in North China had been completely eroded and had become extremely bad and dangerous.

Two days ago, Xu Tingyao, who is in the process of setting up the Jiaosu Military Academy and is responsible for training and organizing China's first armored corps, was entrusted by the central government and the special meeting of the Central Military and Political Affairs to come to appease the 17th Army, which had been ordered to abolish the corps headquarters, in the capacity of the first commander of the 17th Army.

However, when Xu Tingyao saw the officers and men of the 17th Army who were full of anger and saw the *** plane flying low and hovering over the Baoding Military Station unscrupulously, he no longer mentioned any words of dissuasion, but silently recognized Hu Jialin's position, and made false accusations to the dissuasion work of his old colleague and old boss He Yingqin, who had a premonition that the 17th Army was going to be angry, and won the respect of the officers and men of the 17th Army.

"Beard, you have to prepare for the worst, if you really want to fight, it won't be a local war, prepare early, and think carefully in all aspects." Xu Tingyao suggested in a low voice.

Hu Jialin smiled apologetically: "Old sir, the fight has already started, our air regiment shot down three Japanese planes in the airspace north of Baoding ten minutes ago, captured two Japanese pilots, and is on the way back at this moment, almost there." ”

Xu Tingyao was startled, and several special commissioners of the Military Commission beside him suddenly turned pale and panicked, and they couldn't say a word for a long time with their mouths open.
