Chapter 1168 Uninvited Guest (3)

That night, An Yi, who had sent away Koichi Ishikawa, immediately drafted a telegram to send the entire meeting and analysis to Chiang Kai-shek in Xi'an as soon as possible. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

The next day, the situation that An Yi and his staff team were worried about finally happened, and the newspapers of the *** institutions and traitor groups in China have reported on the front page in a prominent position, reporting that Major General Ishikawa Koichi, deputy chief of staff of the *** garrison army, visited Baoding, and had a frank exchange of views with An Yi and gradually reached a consensus on many issues, and predicted that Sino-Japanese friendship has become an irreparable trend, and has done everything possible to create chaos and confusion, causing a huge shock from all walks of life in North China and even the people of China.

At noon on 28 July, An Yi, who was about to go to Hengshui to inspect defense affairs, suddenly received a report that thousands of representatives from all walks of life and patriotic students from Pingjin had arrived in Baoding by train and car, and were marching toward the camp holding high the slogan "Defend national unity and oppose autonomy in North China."

After a quick discussion with Hu Jialin, Huang Yingwu and other generals, An Yi ordered the guard battalion of the special service regiment and the model battalion of the engineer regiment to line up to greet him, and invited all the deputies and people who had been inspected into the camp.

......

At three o'clock in the afternoon, Xi'an, the Northwest Suppression General Headquarters.

Chiang Kai-shek, who came back from a meeting at the headquarters of the 17th Route Army in Yanghucheng, Xi'an New Town, returned to the office surrounded by Chen Cheng, secretary Chen Bui and chief of the guard Wang Shihe and others, and saw a group of generals gathered at the door of the office, such as Deng Wenyi and Qian Dajun, director of the chamberlain, immediately understood what was going on, nodded slightly as a greeting, and went directly into the room, sat down and took the secret telegram and information handed over by Deng Wenyi, Qian Dajun and others, flipped through it a few times, and put it on the table casually and said that he knew. instructed Deng Wenyi and Qian Dajun to stay, and the others should be busy with what they should do.

The generals were surprised, but they still saluted and took their leave.

Chiang Kai-shek drank a glass of water, ordered the rest of the people to sit down, nodded to Chen Cheng, who was silent with a smile, and sat at the top of the sofa.

Chen Cheng took out the secret telegram of An Yi that he received last night, stood up and selected a few paragraphs to read out loud, closed the document, and looked at the generals who suddenly realized:

"You should understand now, right? The secret report presented by the confidential room just now is also very clear: More than 4,000 representatives of the people from all walks of life in North China and patriotic student representatives rushed to Baoding to petition in a panic and anger. If General An really reached a so-called secret deal with the Japanese invaders as propagated by the Japanese puppet traitors, how could General An calmly meet with representatives from all walks of life in North China, who were more than 4,000 people? Do you still remember last year's incident when nearly 1,000 traitors from Jizhong attacked the Baoding camp of the 17th Army? The officers and men of the Seventeenth Army were killed without mercy, and they followed General An's secret orders. ”

The generals finally relieved at this time, thought about it carefully, and suddenly felt that they were not worried at all, with An Yi's consistent position, how could he sell himself to take refuge? I couldn't help but have a fever on my face, and I secretly screamed ashamed.

Chen Cheng continued: "The two Sino-Japanese local wars and several fierce conflicts between the An Jiajun and the Japanese invaders in North China over the past year or so are enough for us to see General An's rock-solid heart of resistance, General An and his officers and men have formed an incommunicado with the Japanese and the traitor group, how can they suddenly become traitors and thieves because of the visit of Ishikawa Hao, who has just served as the deputy chief of staff of the North China Garrison Army?"

"Do you know who Koichi Ishikawa is? This person once served as a tactical instructor at the Huangpu Central Military Academy, and only left Nanjing in the early stage of the Songhu Anti-Japanese War, and he worked with General An, who was then the chief instructor of the Military Academy, in Huangpu for nearly two years and had a good personal friendship. During the Great Wall Anti-Japanese War, Ishikawa Koi served as the commander of the Seventh *** Brigade of the Kwantung Army, and coerced Tang Yulin's department to successfully raid Chengde, which was from the handwriting of this person.

"Koichi Ishikawa's trip to Baoding is really a plot to spy on the truth of An Jiajun under the guise of a courtesy visit, and it is a conspiracy with ill intentions, and the Japanese traitors use this to spread rumors and slander and deceive people's hearts, which is purely his usual trick, and you must not doubt General An's loyalty to the party-state because of this. Just as the principal said, the Japanese army in North China was forced to be helpless by An Yi, so they made this decision regardless of shame. ”

After Chen Cheng finished speaking, he sat down easily, and Chiang Kai-shek saw that there was nothing wrong with everyone, so he ordered the meeting to be dismissed, and as soon as he stood up, the attendant officer reported to Yan Daogang, the chief of staff of the camp, to ask for a meeting.

Yan Daogang, also known as Dianqiao, the word Zurong, is a native of Hanchuan, Hubei. In 1907, he studied in the No. 3 Middle School of the Wuchang Army, and in July 1911, he enlisted in the army as a platoon leader of the student army, and later participated in the Wuchang Uprising. In October 1919, he served as a staff officer of the Hubei Military Supervision Bureau, and in August 1925, he served as a staff officer of the Lianghu Patrol Embassy, and later transferred to the chief of staff of the Second Division of the Army, and participated in the Northern Expedition in August of the following year. After the Communist Party of China, he served as the director of the office of the Wuhan branch of the Army Military Academy and the captain of the first corps of the eighth phase. In March 1934, he was appointed director of the first division of the chairman's chamber. Last year, Chiang Kai-shek failed to pursue the Red Army's Long March, and he was transferred to the chief of staff of the Northwest "Bandits" General Headquarters, supervising Zhang Xueliang and Yang Hucheng.

At this time, Yan Dao just came, and there must have been something unusual to discover. Chiang Kai-shek thought for a while, left Chen Cheng, Qian Dajun and Deng Wenyi, and ordered his attendants to call Yan Daogang in.

Yan Daogang saluted, came to Chiang Kai-shek's side, presented a report, and reported in a low voice: "Commission, this is an urgent report just submitted by the Political Training Department, as soon as the commissioner left the headquarters of General Yang Hucheng, he found that a suspicious element drove into Yang Hucheng's headquarters in a car. ”

When Chiang Kai-shek heard this, he attached great importance to it, hurriedly flipped through the documents, and instructed Yan Daogang in a low voice: "Zu Rong, immediately find out the identity of this person, Yang Hucheng is becoming more and more disagreeable, it seems that he is unreliable, you must keep a close eye on every move of the Seventeenth Route Army for me, and report any abnormalities immediately." ”

"Yes!"

Yan Daogang said quite sincerely: "Commission, subordinates feel that Xi'an is currently very unstable, and I implore you to send an additional battalion guard to ensure the safety of the commission." ”

Chiang Kai-shek waved his hand and smiled slightly: "No need, this is Han Qing's territory, and there is the protection of the military police regiment, plus there is also the guard of the chamberlain, there is no problem with my safety, Zu Rong does not need to worry, it is better to focus on the monitoring of the 17th Route Army and the Northeast Army." ”

"Understood! The subordinate said goodbye. ”

As soon as Yan Dao drove away, the attendant staff officer came in and reported: "Commission, the special plane sent by General An Yi has landed, the airport military police checkpoint has called, and General An's adjutant Shen Fengdao and Liu Qing, the head of the intelligence section of the Second Route Army, have already arrived by car. ”

"Okay, let's go down." Chiang Kai-shek walked to the desk and whispered to Chen Cheng who was coming around: "Cixiu, you go out to greet you, and you will immediately bring someone to see me, and you and Mu Yin (Qian Dajun) will stay and listen to it with me, they brought An Yi's top-secret report this time, which is estimated to be very important, otherwise they would not have flown over in such a hurry, and they would not have reported it in the telegram." ”

"Yes!"

Fifteen minutes later, Shen Fengdao and Liu Qing entered the office under the enthusiastic guidance of Chen Cheng, and after saluting, they handed An Yi's top-secret report with both hands:

"Commission, this is the latest intelligence of the Japanese army in North China obtained by Commander An and the generals and colonels of the headquarters from last night to ten o'clock this morning, after summarizing and analyzing, and two top-secret action plans are attached, requesting the commission's review and approval."

Chiang Kai-shek motioned to Shen Fengdao and Liu Qing to sit down for tea first, pulled the cotton rope of the dossier, tore open the seal, took out a few reports and an An Yi's handwritten letter from the dossier, read the letter and read the three reports in detail, checked them twice, and fell into deep thought.

On the sofa in front of him, Liu Qing once again briefly stated the North China issue to Chen Cheng and Qian Dajun.

Chen Cheng was relieved after hearing this, knowing that An Yi and the divisions stationed in the area had firmly grasped the initiative in central and southern Hebei, and the Japanese did not dare to provoke easily during this period, but felt a faint worry about the increasing pressure on Han Fuqu in Shandong.

Chiang Kai-shek put away An Yi's handwritten letter, summoned Chen Cheng and Qian Dajun to read An Yi's report, and when the two finished reading it, Chiang Kai-shek asked in a low voice: "What is your opinion?" ”

Chen Cheng glanced at Qian Dajun and replied in a low voice under Qian Dajun's signal: "My subordinates very much agree with General An's judgment and draw a unanimous conclusion from the intelligence analysis summarized from all aspects: At least until next spring, it is impossible for the Japanese army, which is undergoing large-scale expansion, to launch a full-scale war of aggression against China. ”

"The subordinates also hold this point of view, just as General An Yi analyzed, in the near future, the intensification of the conflict in North China will be on the front line of Sui and Cha, General Fu Zuoyi is currently under increasing pressure, and his subordinates suggest adopting General An's strategy, and order Tang Enbo's department to go forward to give Fu Zuoyi's department more favorable assistance and cooperation." Qian Dajun whispered his opinion.

Chiang Kai-shek nodded: "I also have this opinion, but An Yi's two secret action plans still need to be considered, and now is the critical moment to exterminate the *** army, just go further, you can completely eradicate ***, in exchange for the long-term stability of the northwest, if you carry out a special operation thousands of kilometers away from the country at this time, it is likely that the gains outweigh the losses, and it may even prompt the Japanese to launch a full-scale war of aggression in advance."

"My personal opinion is that it is a very dangerous thing to let An Yi put aside the two special operations plans for the time being, and at this time to attack the best energy transportation lines and attempt to cause international chaos in the Nanyang region, and if we don't do it well, it will hurt us in the end."

Chen Cheng hesitated, he was very supportive of An Yi's series of action plans, but hearing Chiang Kai-shek say this, Chen Cheng had to consider the overall situation again.

Qian Dajun very much agreed with Chiang Kai-shek's opinion: "What the committee said is that at this time, the key point is still in the northwest. On the issue of exterminating the armed forces, the Majia Army in the northwest has gradually reversed the situation in the past few months, turned defeat into victory, and has firmly compressed the army to the narrow area of the Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningbo border region. ”

Chiang Kai-shek nodded appreciatively: "Yes, this is also the most realistic and urgent situation requirement, but I feel that Yang Hucheng is unusable, I even suspect that this person is ***, and Han Qing is indecisive and listens to slander, and really thinks that ***, who is about to be destroyed, will go to Japan with his Northeast Army, and he actually ordered all the departments under his command to stagnate and be confused!" Under such circumstances, I had to mobilize additional troops to go to northern Shaanxi, and tomorrow, we will fly to Luoyang. ”

Chen Cheng smiled happily: "The commission should have gone to Luoyang a long time ago, sitting in Luoyang can command the overall situation, which is more reassuring than in Xi'an, where our troops are scarce!" ”

"Cixiu, what are you talking about? As the commander of the whole army, am I still worried that my soldiers will rebel? You, like An Yi, repeatedly advised me not to come to Xi'an, and to leave as soon as possible when I came, didn't I come? Wouldn't it be nice to stay for nearly ten days?

"Even if Yang Hucheng has two hearts, and Han Qing is here, although Han Qing is young and indecisive and has a weak personality, I believe in Han Qing's loyalty to the party and the state, and I believe that he will never do anything foolish to my brother! You're fine with everything, but you're too cautious and suspicious, and that needs to be corrected. Chiang Kai-shek said with great confidence.

Chen Cheng could only bow his head, and Chiang Kai-shek instructed Qian Dajun to put away the report, walk to Shen Fengdao and Liu Qing with a relaxed smile, and ask the two to bring his message to An Yi.
