Chapter 175: Negotiation
"Chairman! (Han Fuqu is currently the chairman of Shandong Province of the National Government), in my opinion, this Tian Zheng is a blatant rebellion. We should report this matter to Chairman Chiang, and he will come forward to denounce this boy who doesn't know the height of the sky! At that time, we will also draft a telegram to inform the whole country that this 54th Army will become a rat crossing the street! When Chairman Chiang gives an order and mobilizes a large army to suppress the border, I am afraid that the 54th Group Army will definitely be captured obediently! A political official said.
"Confused! Let's not talk about it, now Chairman Jiang Zheng is wholeheartedly exterminating the red bandits! If we report this matter to Chairman Chiang, he will definitely not only not help, but will reprimand us for doing things badly! If he transfers another division from us on the pretext of exterminating the red bandits, then the entire Shandong Province will be empty, and the chairman will not be able to pinch us as much as he wants. Han Fuqu immediately rejected the proposal.
"Chairman, why don't we secretly send someone to negotiate with the 54th Army? Let's see if they can let Tai'an go, or let them put back our troop flags and commanders. At that time, as long as the number is still there, we will still be able to continue to replenish the troops! Otherwise, we will lose a first-class division for nothing! Lao Jiang will definitely be happy to see it, and when the time comes, if we are stuck, then our strength will be further weakened! A colonel's staff officer said to Han Fuqu.
"Well, that's true! But I just can't swallow it! That Tian Zheng boy, I think he was just an ordinary soldier at the beginning, if I hadn't promoted and reused him, he wouldn't have grown to the point where he was later! Hey, it's just that I was soft-hearted at the beginning. Now it has ended up with an anti-bullying result! Okay, that's it. Don't make a noise about this matter, and choose someone who is suitable for negotiation to contact the other party lightly! Try to get Tai'an and our troops back! As long as the money is not too much. We can all say yes! Han Fuqu made a decision after the end.
The person sent by Han Fuqu was called He Siyuan. He was one of the new literati who was reused after Han Fuqu took charge of Shandong. He Siyuan himself joined the Kuomintang in 1927 and was one of the eleven main responsible persons when he established National Shandong University in 1928. It can be said that Han Fuqu's great achievements in the development of education in Shandong Province are mainly contributed by He Siyuan. He himself also has a great reputation in civil and academic circles.
Han Fuqu, historically said that he was a martial artist, and he couldn't try a basket of bean characters. In fact, Han Fuqu is a relatively capable general. It's also quite wise. The appointment of He Siyuan to be solely responsible for the negotiation this time also has Han Fuqu's own careful thoughts. He Siyuan has a great reputation among the people and academics, and a literati has the style of a literati. Let him negotiate, not to mention that the 54th Group Army can be released and returned for nothing, at least it will save a lot of money.
After Qin Ming and Xie Feng joined forces, they quickly gained a firm foothold in Tai'an, purged the officials, and stabilized the people's livelihood. After a series of meetings, the military headquarters of the 54th Army decided to move the military headquarters to the city of Tai'an. Liaocheng as a strategic rear. Only the 11th Garrison Division was retained to be responsible for public security and defense, recruiting and training new soldiers, ensuring the healthy operation of various military factories, and other county towns. Military-industrial enterprises have formed militia groups, guard squads and other armed guard forces. The rest of the main combat units were all stationed in Tai'an.
At this point, Liaocheng is the strategic rear. The rudiments of Tai'an's operational development plan for the 54 th Group Army, which is the last line of defense, have been revealed. Liaocheng is garrisoned by three full-fledged infantry regiments of the 11th Garrison Division and a heavy artillery battalion. A rocket artillery battalion, various militia groups, guard squads, and other armed forces totaling about 20,000 people, spread to the entire area of Liaocheng with the 11th Garrison Division stationed in major cities and towns as the center. So far, Liaocheng has fundamentally formed a meticulous and rigorous defense network.
The troops of the 11th Garrison Division dispatched to Tai'an were expanded on the spot, mainly to accommodate some lightly wounded and disabled veterans of the main combat force, veterans of the original 11th Garrison Division, plus recruits who were recruited and expanded on the spot, and some prisoners who were selected from the prisoners of the Tai'an operation with a relatively innocent foundation and a good temperament, and formed a new unit after the dispersal and mixing, numbered the 12th Garrison Division. The establishment is the same as that of the 11th Garrison Division, which is also three full-strength infantry regiments, one heavy artillery battalion, and one rocket artillery battalion. Responsible for Tai'an's public security, people's livelihood, education and other aspects. It has the same responsibilities as the 11th Garrison Division, belongs to the reserve sequence, and has semi-military and half-government responsibilities, and the division commander is Qin Ming, the former commander of the 162nd Division. The commander of the 1st Regiment of the 162nd Division was promoted from Long Xin, the former commander of the 1st Regiment and 1st Battalion. Long Xin also participated in the team when he first formed the army, and now he is also experienced in a hundred battles, and he has made excellent progress in Tian Zheng's unremitting cultural compulsory education. In addition, his people are brave and brave, and they have all taken the lead in several battles, and they have already become the seedlings of the military department. This time Qin Ming's position was adjusted, and the vacant position of head of the regiment happened to be held by Long Xin.
Not long after the military headquarters moved to Tai'an City and settled down, He Siyuan, who was sent by Han Fuqu, came to visit and ask for a meeting. When Yan Shisanyi heard that he didn't know someone, he immediately said to Yan Xiaoliu, who was in charge of the security work, "Who is He Siyuan?" I don't know! Xiaoliu, you quickly send someone to blow him away for me! The military headquarters is an important place, and we must take strict precautions, and we must not let unknown people enter and leave at will! ”
It just so happened that the chief of staff, Wang Zilu, was passing by, and when he heard Yan Shisan's shouting, he hurriedly stopped the movements of Yan Xiaoliu and Yan Shisan, "Deputy Yan Junzao, slow down!" You don't know! This He Siyuan is a celebrity, a great educator in Shandong Province, and has a great reputation among the people and all levels of society! Not only that, but he is also Han Fuqu's right-hand man in promoting politics! ”
When Yan Shisan heard this, he became even more impatient, "I said Brother Wang, why are you such a mother-in-law!" We just snatched back a Tai'an City from Han Fuqu, and now his right-hand man is coming to pay a visit! This is a weasel giving a New Year's greeting to a chicken! I'm not happy! I don't believe that Han Fuqu is so big-bellied and can tolerate, you must know that the annual grain output of Lu Dao Tai'an is enough to feed more than one million people! Isn't he Han Fuqu distressed! Xiaoliu, hurry up, blast that He Siyuan out of the way for me! ”
Wang Zilu hurriedly gave Yan Xiaoliu a look. Here again, he persuaded Yan Shisan. Only then did Yan Xiaoliu hurry in to inform Tian Zheng, and he was fully dressed and walked to the gate with his head held high to meet the guests.
"I don't know if Mr. He is here, and the brothers below are a little inhospitable! Please also Mr. Ho Haihan! Wang Zilu clenched his fists with both hands, bowed his head slightly, and his words were quite stylish.
He Siyuan was dressed in a coarse cloth green coat, wearing a gray top hat, with a slender face, thick eyebrows and big eyes, two simply trimmed beards on his upper lip, and a pair of thick glass-framed glasses. At this moment, seeing Wang Zilu, who was dressed in the costume of a major general, came to receive him in person, he didn't dare to put on a show at the moment, and hurriedly greeted politely. Two people with different hearts humbled each other and walked into the military compound like brothers who had not seen each other for many years. (To be continued......)
