Wuer Town has a long history of more than 6,000 years. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 info is one of the four famous towns in the south of the Yangtze River, and it is a typical ancient water town in the south of the Yangtze River, known as "the land of fish and rice, and the small house of silk."

Qingwu Town is bounded by a stream. Hexi is Wuzhen belongs to Huzhou, Hedong is Qingzhen belongs to Jiaxing, and the title of "Wucheng Marquis" of Jiangdong Sun during the Three Kingdoms period comes from here. Ancient town water 6 traffic reach, through Yaozhen Highway can be connected with the provincial highway Salt Lake Highway, Shanghai-Hangzhou Highway, 27 kilometers away from the surrounding Jiaxing, 45 kilometers away from Huzhou, 60 kilometers away from Wujiang, only a few miles away from the bustling Tongxiang county town in the south, to Shanghai 100 kilometers away in one day under convenient traffic conditions.

Gu Changfeng fell in love with this wealthy ancient town with favorable conditions at a glance, and out of consideration for the concealment and suddenness of military operations and the logistical supply of troops, Gu Changfeng reported to army commander Yin Jinan for his consent and immediately brought 13,000 soldiers of the 44th Division to this place. On the first line of Ciyun Bridge outside the north gate of Wuzhen, the forest is lush, and the Laoyue Temple and many square forests behind the temple on the verge of the highway have become the camping ground of the soldiers. The sky was bright and cloudy, and the local people still did not know that there were tens of thousands of elite soldiers hidden in the area of Laoyue Temple in the north, and they were quite surprised to see the quartermasters of each regiment wearing gray cloth military uniforms and riding high-headed horses into the town to buy food and goods, and they did not dare to ask more questions when they heard the chaotic accents of the officers, but they had a good impression of the soldiers with a kind attitude and fair trade.

January 27th. At ten o'clock in the morning, the old temple hall on the outskirts of the ancient town.

The presiding abbot was accompanying Gu Changfeng and Deputy Master Yan Yaohuan to visit the Buddha statues in the hall, followed by two young novices with clear eyebrows.

Although he was deeply surprised by the sudden arrival of the army, Qing Xiu's middle-aged people still looked calm and polite for many years. The two generals who talked extraordinarily and eclecticly, but wore colorful soldiers' clothes, secretly paid attention to them.

"The reporter is seated: the commander sends an urgent telegram, and the special plane will land at Jiaxing Airport in two hours, and the two divisions will rush to Nanjing to attend the emergency meeting."

Liang Zhenyu, the newly promoted colonel's chief of staff, made a low report in the hall, handed the telegram to Gu Changfeng, and looked around at the gold-armored Buddha statue on the front and the standing Buddha on both sides.

After reading it, Gu Changfeng returned to Liang Zhenyu: "Zhenyu, the brothers are led by you, keep them hidden, and be strictly vigilant." In addition, the abbot and the masters in the temple have been wronged, they can't go anywhere today, the two side halls in the front yard are temporarily used as the division headquarters, Zhenyu you have an idea for specific affairs, and then let the party representatives, the instructors of the brigades, regiments and battalions take the opportunity to carry out pre-war mobilization, and say that little Japan is at worst, how can it arouse the anger of the brothers, just say it, those of them have this ability to confuse people's hearts, and if they can talk about the brothers angrily, they will reward them if they shout at Lao Tzu! Time is urgent, Lao Yan and I have to rush to Jiaxing quickly, 30 kilometers away in two hours, it is estimated that the horse is tired enough

"Yes!" Liang Zhenyu is holding his chest up.

"Can this weather fly?" Yan Yaohuan looked worriedly at the sky outside the hall.

"Don't worry, if you can't fly, there won't be this urgent order, it is estimated that the crisis is imminent, just a touch, let's go!" Gu Changfeng apologized to the abbot who was surprised when he heard this, and went side by side with Yan Yaohuan.

The two walked to the front of the temple. The adjutant guards had already prepared, and led the horses over, and suddenly a horse galloped from west to east, Gu Changfeng looked at it, and the dust in the east covered the sky and the sun, as if there were tens of thousands of iron horsemen coming from the dust. Gu Changfeng handed the reins to the adjutant. Standing with his hands behind his back, he waited for the horse to arrive.

Lieutenant Colonel An Jin, deputy of the special brigade, grabbed the reins, flew down and jumped off the war horse that stood up, and ran in front of Gu Changfeng in a few steps. Report out loud:

"Report division: The logistics convoy composed of 89 trucks from the old Nanchang military station has arrived three kilometers west of the town, the convoy is full of combat materials, and the artillery of our division has also been delivered, including four trucks carrying anti-aircraft twin guns that have left the factory, and the commander of the Nanchang Guard Brigade Sun Xiaowang personally escorted the vehicles here."

"So fast? That's great! Yan Yaohuan was surprised and very happy.

"The boss is amazing! He usually says that big battles are fought in logistics, and he does the same, so he makes us have no worries! Lao Yan, it seems that we don't have to ride a horse, wait for Xiaowang to come and let him give us a ride. This grandson has a very good car, strong power, walking on the mountain road as if walking on the ground, up to 100 kilometers, running such a good highway in Jiaxing does not need a few cigarettes, *** I am red-eyed, I will get one for you and Zhenyu each of you, Sun Xiaowang that grandson is the brigade commander has a special car, how can we say that it is also the division commander, deputy division commander, chief of staff, and the rank and position are higher than him. There's no reason why you shouldn't come! Gu Changfeng laughed happily.

10:50 a.m. Nanjing General Headquarters.

Ten generals, including Chiang Kai-shek, He Yingqin, Zhang Zhizhong, Lou Jie, An Yi, Chen Cheng, Ge Jingen, Chen Shuming, He Yaozu, and Xiong Shihui, gathered in front of the large map, and more than 30 staff officers of various departments and schools sat in the back rows around the wide conference table, all listening to the tense discussions of the generals.

An Yi stood half a step behind Yang Jie's side, looking at the constantly moving baton on the map, and admired Yang Jie in his heart, Yang Jie's thoughtful thinking and comprehensive but focused strategic and tactical analysis left a deep impression on everyone.

Forty-three-year-old Lieutenant General Yang Jie has big ears, is a typical kind of heavenly court, the appearance of the square pavilion, Yunnan Dali, at the age of 16 was admitted to the Yunnan Jiangwutang predecessor of the 6 Army Chengwu Academy, soon entered the Baoding Beiyang 6 Army Officer Academy to study, at the age of 21 to the Japanese 6 Army non-commissioned officer school 10 artillery department to learn artillery military command, and later entered the 15 Japanese 6 Army University. During his stay in Japan, he joined the League led by Sun Yat-sen, and returned to China to participate in the battles of the Xinhai Revolution and the National Defense Movement, and successively served as battalion commander, regiment commander, brigade commander and commander of the Chongqing garrison, Chongqing Daoyin, director of the Provincial Government Affairs Department of the Fourth Province, director of the Chongqing Police Department, chief of the cavalry section of Yunnan Jiangwutang and Japanese instructor, commander of the Escort Column, military adviser of the Beijing Presidential Office and adviser to the 6th Military Department. He was invited by Mr. Zhongshan to serve as the chief of staff of the Third Army of the National Army, the commander-in-chief of the former enemy of the National Army, and the chief of education of the training department of the Sixth Army of Henan Province, and the general staff of the Sixth Army of the National Revolutionary Army to participate in the Northern Expedition in 26. At the end of the year, he was appointed commander of the 17th Division of the Sixth Army. In April of the following year, he was appointed deputy commander and acting commander of the Sixth Army. In July, he served as the commander of the 18th Army, a member of the Military Commission and the director of the General Office, and in the later period of the Second Northern Expedition, he took over as the chief of staff of the First Group Army and the director of the Northern Parallel Battalion of the General Headquarters of the National Revolutionary Army, and the principal of the Beiping Military Police School. In the later period of the war, Chiang Feng served as the director and tenth elder of the Luoyang camp, was elected as a member of the Central Executive Committee of the Kuomintang last year, and later served as the president of the Sixth Army University, who moved from Beiping, and is now the deputy chief of staff of the Military Commission and the president of the Sixth Army University.

By mistake, An Yi, who has made great achievements, and Yang Jie, who has several people in the army, have not handed over much, and the affairs of the two are also very busy. After Yang Jie finished explaining, the generals returned to their seats to talk, and An Yi, who was also the deputy chief of staff and sat between Yang Jie and Ge Jingen, said no and listened with his ears pricked up.

Years of ups and downs have made An Yi mature, even if his heart is as anxious as fire, his face is also a sign of stability and peace, and the participants of today's important meeting are all respected seniors. As a late-born junior, An Yi naturally understands the general situation.

The meeting was not long in progress. Soon two different opinions were formed, one was to resolutely resist and never retreat, and the other was to focus on defense, supplemented by diplomatic means to eliminate the bait of war as much as possible, and the representatives of the two opinions were Chen Shuming and He Yaozu on the one hand, and He Yingqin and Xiong Shihui on the other. And He Xiong and He Xiong are both graduates of the Japanese military academy in the army, the appearance of these two camps makes An Yi feel very interesting, although he and Chen Cheng and Ge Jingen are on the side of resolute resistance, but seeing that Zhang Zhizhong, Yang Jie and others who are old and serious, they have no intention of expressing their attitudes, they look at each other, smile knowingly, and close their mouths tightly.

He Yingqin also listed a large number of figures to prove that the current national strength and the need to rebuild cannot ignite the flames of war: from the perspective of military capabilities, due to the change of government personnel. The various departments are still not capable of carrying out all kinds of work, and our army is scattered in various places and is unprepared for the outbreak of a major war. How to deal with it?

With the modern warships and sea transportation capacity of the Japanese army, ten divisions and regiments can be mobilized from Japan to participate in the war within three days, and most of our army relies on a pair of feet, and tens of thousands of soldiers stationed in Anhui, Xi, and the Soviet Union have recently rushed to the battlefield, and I am afraid it will take at least five days to a week. ”

"So, what does the minister mean that we are going to give up Shanghai? Could it be that Minister He is willing to be a national sinner? Chen Shuming asked unceremoniously.

"No, the reason why I say so much is that I just hope that you will be cautious and try to work together to discuss how to control the inevitable war within the minimum intensity, minimum, and scope."

He Yingqin sat down and stood up again, his gentle and gentle demeanor had become a habit, and over the years this habit had also won him a good reputation in the army and from all walks of life.

Chen Shuming saw He Yingqin sit down again and quietly looked at Chiang Kai-shek, sighed slightly and stopped talking, turned his head to look at An Yi, who was expressionless, and was quite surprised that An Yi, the leader of the staunch anti-Japanese Shaozhuang faction, was so calm. Chiang Kai-shek's face was grim. He sat solemnly and seemed to be looking forward with great concentration, but in fact he saw the expressions on the faces of all the generals. He knew that many of the old rivers and lakes here knew that He Yingqin's words actually represented his Chiang Kai-shek's opinions, and he also knew that He Yingqin's words were full of helplessness and contradictions, and the reason why no one refuted them was also for the sake of his Chiang Kai-shek's face, but from the bottom of his heart, Chiang Kai-shek was not willing to avoid war at all, and his comeback must appear as a patriotic leader, not as a coward or even a traitor, aiming at the divided country and the current chaotic situation. Perhaps the best solution is like An Yi's earnest advice before the meeting! There is only a just war of unanimity and resistance to external humiliation. Only then can we unify the thinking of the Chinese people, and only then can the opposition in the country temporarily put aside their differences and unite around the new central government for Chiang Kai-shek!

Under the nervous gaze of the generals, the thoughtful Chiang Kai-shek slowly turned his head and looked at An Yi: "General An Yi, you are a famous general in the army, a representative of the Young Zhuang faction who has made outstanding achievements in battle and performed well in all aspects, and represents the opinions of a large number of officers and men in the army. Don't worry, just talk about it. ”

Chiang Kai-shek's attitude surprised everyone secretly, and He Yingqin was even more puzzled, thinking that at this time, you let the king of heaven and Lao Tzu not buy An Yi's posture, with An Yi's sophistic eloquence and cunning thinking that can always confuse people's hearts, I just talked hard for more than ten minutes, didn't I talk in vain?

Under the gaze of everyone, An Yi closed the notebook, stood up slowly, bowed slightly, and raised his young and proud head:

"The Manchu Dynasty, which was overthrown by our Xinhai Revolution and martyrs, also resisted in the early days of the two Opium Wars, and during the invasion of China by the Eight-Nation Alliance, there was not only resistance from the Qing army, but also the Boxer Resistance Movement that was forgotten or even scandalized. Before his death, the old man told his descendants and the disciples and grandchildren of the Bagua Sect that he had no glory in his life. I was only proud of the four foreign devils who stabbed me back then, and I was worthy of my ancestors and ancestors when I went to Quantai. ”

Everyone reminisced. pondered, but An Yi didn't give everyone time to continue thinking: "The dignified Republic of China, isn't it better than the Manchu Dynasty with long braids and women with small feet, sitting in a well and watching the sky, but ** incompetent?" I didn't ask this sentence, I asked it in advance on behalf of 40,000 people, because I saw it without asking!

Ladies and gentlemen, don't think that I am alarmist, because everyone has seen what our central government ministers are doing now, and they are discussing moving the capital! Comrades, is this the Chinese nation with thousands of years of history and profound cultural heritage? So far, I have not seen any government officials thinking about how to support the front line, how to resettle the victims, how to boost morale, how to arouse the people's hatred for the enemy, they are thinking about their own interests, how to notify their relatives and friends as soon as possible, how to save their family business, their wives and children, so their first thought is to escape! ”

An Yi coldly glanced at a circle of generals with different reactions: "Some people may say that this is a rainy day, be prepared, even if it is." You can also paraphrase a common saying called the green let of stay. We are not afraid of running out of firewood, but as soldiers, we are revolutionary soldiers of the Republic of China who take the responsibility of protecting our homes and defending the country, where are we fleeing? If you take another 10,000 steps back, everyone can escape, but who will order the escape? Who will put on the shameful hat of this historical sinner? Cowardice before fighting, in ancient times, according to military law, should be beheaded! In my An Yi army, such a person will be kicked out of the army in the blink of an eye, and no matter how talented and well-cultivated he is, he will be spurned and despised by all the soldiers.

For history, for the classics, I An Yi is a layman, I dare not get an axe in front of everyone, but I An Yi has never learned the profound strategy of cowardice and even fleeing without a fight, and I don't want to learn, here I just want to say a word to the commander-in-chief, to the seniors and commanders. is also a heartfelt plea: let the junior An Yi fight this battle happily, and let me An Yi do Li Hongzhangdu after the fight

The whole hall was stunned. Seeing An Yi's extremely serious appearance, Chen Cheng couldn't help but cover his mouth and laugh. This laugh was strongly contagious, and the whole house laughed at it, He Yaozu and Chen Shuming laughed and hit the table and praised, Chiang Kai-shek lowered his head and covered his mouth, and couldn't help laughing and scolding:

"Niang Xipi, flamboyant, alarmist
