Chapter 628 Uninvited Guest
In the side hall of the main building of Houzai Lane, Hu Jialin, Yang Guan, Huang Yingwu, Wu Liheng, the independent division generals, and Xie Chi, the deputy division commander of the 16th Division, and other eight division and brigade commanders gathered together, reuniting with each other after a long absence, chattering non-stop, and looking extremely excited. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
At present, the 16th Division has been successfully stationed in the ** camp, and Xie Chi, Shi Junren and other old brothers who were originally independent divisions are naturally relieved.
While the brothers drank and chatted, in addition to asking about their experiences after parting, it was natural that the current severe domestic and international situation facing the country and the nation:
After the Japanese army captured the main towns of Jilin and Heilongjiang, they extended their magic hand to the western Liaoning region. On the 15th of last month, the Kwantung Army began to attack Jinzhou, a neutral zone set by the League of Nations. On the 17th, the Central Headquarters of the Japanese Army sent additional troops from the Japanese mainland to reinforce the Kwantung Army, and on the 28th, its main force crossed the Liao River to attack Jinzhou, and just yesterday, the Japanese army successfully occupied Jinzhou. The Northeast Army stationed in Jinzhou continued to implement the policy of non-resistance and quickly retreated to the Luandong area of Hebei Province and the line of Rehe.
With the successive military victories, the Japanese ships in the southeast coast and the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River also became more arrogant, and the brothers were angry and offered suggestions one after another, thinking about how to retaliate within their own capabilities.
It's just that An Yi didn't say what he was thinking, he knew that as long as he revealed it a little, the brothers would think about it every day, so he kept listening with a smile and didn't say much, allowing these good brothers who usually pretended to be deep in front of thousands of soldiers to have a chance to vent and indulge.
When the wine was half-drunk, Liu Hao came to An Yi's side and handed over the telegram: "Commander-in-Chief secret telegram." β
An Yi took a look, pondered, raised his head and asked Liu Hao in a low voice: "What is the news from Hunan and Jiangxi?" β
According to the contents of the wireless communication that was still deciphered by the Nanchang headquarters group, Ji Zhentong, the former commander of the 74th Brigade of the 26th Route Army, was appointed commander-in-chief of the Fifth Army of the Red Army, Zhao Bosheng, chief of staff of the 26th Route Army, was appointed chief of staff and commander of the 13th Army, Dong Zhentang was the commander of the 14th Army, Huang Zhongyue was the commander of the 15th Army, Xiao Jinguang was the political commissar of the regiment, and Liu Bojian was the director of the Political Department.
According to the summary of information from various intelligence stations in Jiangxi, various units of the Red Army are quietly gathering in the southern Jiangxi region, and it is likely that the Red Army will launch one or two large-scale attacks on major cities in the next ten days. Liu Hao replied in a low voice.
"What's going on? How could the situation in Jiangxi be so chaotic? Hu Jialin asked puzzled.
An Yi shook his head: "Because of the change of regime, the various departments of the Central Army are stuck in passive waiting, and the local troops who have been transferred to various places to suppress the Communist Party are also confused, which is normal. Fortunately, our team has left the Nanchang area, so there is no need to worry about these things, but I am not so comfortable. The commander-in-chief sent a secret telegram asking me to rush to Nanchang tomorrow to camp and earnestly shoulder the responsibility of staff officers to command and supervise the suppression of the Communist Party by all armies.
It seems that although Commander-in-Chief Chiang retreated into the background, he was still extremely focused on suppressing the Communists, and it is estimated that Chief Chen Cheng and Chief Jiang Dingwen also received a secret telegram from the Commander-in-Chief, and I am afraid that no one will be idle in the future. β
Xie Chi frowned when he heard this: "You won't transfer our 16th Division and Bearded Independent Division to suppress bandits, right?" There is also the 44th Division of Hutou, which will all be driven to Hukou within two days. Originally, we all went out of Sichuan with the idea of beating the Japanese, and if we were transferred to suppress the bandits, we would lose a lot. β
"Definitely not, the two divisions of our 24th Army are aimed at the direction of Nanjing and Shanghai, this is very clear, as for the independent division, it is half of the capital garrison division, which has been guarding the north gate of Nanjing, and the three divisions do not have to worry about being transferred to suppress bandits." An Yi waved his hand to reassure the brothers.
"Report!"
The captain's confidential officer handed a telegram to Liu Hao, Liu Hao took it and nodded, signaling that he could leave, and handed it to An Yi after reading it: "Chief Yin's secret telegram was sent with the No. 3 password." β
An Yi took a look at it, and immediately became happy: "Call back, just say that you don't have to worry about my feelings, let him go to Xikou to meet Commander-in-Chief Jiang." If my estimate is correct, the principal misses Jinan, and it is appropriate to find him to teach face-to-face, and at the same time, this is also a gesture made by the principal to deeply realize the important strategic position of the southwest, and it is likely that he also realizes that a major war between China and Japan will come soon.
This is not a bad thing, maybe Ji Nan will be included in the list of the principal's henchmen and generals because of this trip, the position of the military commander is more solid, and the future is more ambitious, a good thing, it is a good thing for Ji Nan himself and for our brothers! It proves that in his mind, we are all irreplaceable! β
Xie Chi sighed slightly: "The commander-in-chief is really good at dancing with long sleeves!" The governments of Wang Jingwei and Sun Ke are now empty-handed, with only a showcase, asking for money but no money, asking for guns without guns, except for lip service and eating old books, it is estimated that there is nothing to rely on, and if this continues, there is no hope except for the intensification of contradictions and the fragmentation of the political situation, and it seems that the day when the commander-in-chief will come back will not be too far away. β
"By the way, Lao Xie, the commander-in-chief asked you if you could go to the Army University for further study last month, why didn't you go?" Wu Liheng asked.
Xie Chi glanced at Wu Liheng: "Old Wu, your kid is already qualified to enter the Whampoa General Class, why don't you go in to gild?" β
"Don't dare to think about it! In my life, being a major general and brigade commander has come to an end, and if I go to school to study, it is better to send me to prison, do you want my life? If it weren't for the bad temper of the beard, I would have wanted to be transferred to southern Sichuan to join in the fun with a group of old brothers! β
Wu Liheng's words immediately provoked a burst of laughter, and Hu Jialin was not surprised, but he would never let go of Wu Liheng, who had no theoretical knowledge and proud academic qualifications, but had extraordinary practical combat experience, had amazing judgment and insight into the battle situation, and fought with both tenacity and treachery. Among the hundreds of thousands of officers and men of the Central Army, Wu Liheng, who followed An Yi all the way, had a very high prestige, and the officers of the Huangpu First Series of the Independent Division all respectfully respected and deeply admired him.
Hu Jialin looked at An Yi: "When are you leaving?" β
"I guess it's going to be tomorrow afternoon! Tomorrow morning, I have to discuss the business in Shanghai with He Jing, during this time, Shanghai's real estate has fallen vigorously, the price of gold has risen and risen, the behavior of Japan's major banks and trading companies is very abnormal, I am worried that it is likely to be the precursor to the coming of the war, so Shanghai's business should be adjusted quickly, the collection should be collected, the sale should be made as soon as possible, and the millions of yuan of yarn spindles and cloth of the four yarn factories are sold at half price, I plan to let Mr. Zhou and Chen Yu go to a trip, with Mr. Du Zhonghui Bank as a guarantee, The millions of goods were first received by means of three to four months of exchange and quickly transported to southern Sichuan, so that the textile equipment produced by the southern Sichuan textile printing and dyeing factory, including a number of bankrupt enterprises, was also shipped back.
If you come over tomorrow morning, it is estimated that Xin Yi, the ruthless man from Shanghai, will also come over, he was introduced by Brother Dai Li, and he is a senior apprentice of Mr. Du Yong (Du Yuesheng), I will meet him with you, maybe it will be beneficial in the future. An Yi said.
Hu Jialin was slightly taken aback: "Is the Xin Yi you are talking about the Qing Gang Chu Qiao who is called 'wings' on the rivers and lakes?" Remember that he is one of the four King Kongs under Boss Du, right? β
An Yi nodded: "It's him, I heard that this guy is good, he hasn't read much, but he can speak fluent English and Japanese, he debuted at the age of seventeen to the present, and has committed countless crimes in the past ten years, but he has never missed, and he rarely shows his face, I heard that even among the children of the Green Gang, there are not many people who have seen his true face, he is the deepest and most stable one in the generation of the Green Gang, and he is also a very righteous and principled one." I think he may be the same as the tiger head, and he is also a famous family, otherwise he doesn't have this attainment, but it is worth seeing. β
Hu Jialin nodded and stopped talking, and after the dinner, the brothers also returned to the camp one after another.
An Yi went up to the study on the second floor, savored Chiang Kai-shek's secret telegram, pondered for a long time, called Shen Fengdao, and wrote a reply with the word "obey" and handed it to him to take down and reply.
A few minutes later, Shen Fengdao came up and whispered: "Commander, He Jing has arrived." β
"So fast? Doesn't it mean that genius is coming? Let's go down and greet us. β
An Yi rushed downstairs and saw Xiao Jiu leading He Jing and Liu Hong in suits and leather shoes, and a literati with a familiar figure wearing literati robes and top hats.
After greeting each other, An Yi stopped in front of the robed literati: "Your guest is ......"
The robed literati took off his top hat, revealing a dignified and resolute face with Chinese characters, and greeted with a gentle smile: "General An's demeanor is still there!" β
"It turned out to be Brother Chengjun!" An Yi stepped forward in surprise and shook hands: "What wind blew you from Beiping?" There are friends from afar, and they are very happy, please ...... inside Shanzi on tea, haha! β
The guest and host sat down humbly, and He Jing explained apologetically: "Brother Wang came from afar, and when he arrived in Shanghai, he found the younger brother, and the younger brother was very happy. β
An Yi knew that He Jing was deliberately concealing the true relationship between him and An Yi, and he could also hear that He Jing seemed to have difficulties in his words, thinking of Wang Chengjun's identity as a teacher and student leader of Peking University, he had a premonition, with a warm smile on his face, and said happily:
"Mr. He is polite, thinking that when the younger brother was in Beiping, he was warmly received by Brother Wang and the teachers and students, and he helped each other to establish a little reputation in North China, and had the opportunity to speak his heart. Haha, Brother Wang, please drink tea! Why don't you have some supper, warm up a pot of wine and toast and talk? β
"If the general is not too abrupt, let's drink two glasses, the weather is strangely cold, and after a day on the train, I eat cold food, and my stomach is already widowed." Liu Hong smiled unceremoniously.
Everyone laughed, Xiao Jiu didn't wait for An Yi's command to turn to the kitchen in the back, and half a bowl of tea, steaming hot pot and a few dishes of exquisite side dishes were served on the table.
An Yi said a few polite words, everyone raised their glasses to celebrate, looked at each other and smiled after drinking, and began to eat.
After eating for a while, Wang Chengjun put down his chopsticks and sighed: "Several films of Oriental Film Company are really well made, especially "Model Camp", which is a record! On the first night, it was screened in the playground of Peking University, with more than 40,000 spectators, which was magnificent! The teachers and students were enthusiastic when they saw it, choked up deeply in the moving places, and boiled in the nervous places, which was really breathtaking and unforgettable! Starting the next day, the Beijing Daily, the school newspaper and various publications were all the impressions of the "Model Battalion", and the rave reviews lasted for half a month, and the heroic images of General An and the soldiers of the Model Battalion were deeply rooted in the hearts of the people! β
Everyone laughed again and again, An Yi shook his head and said humbly: "It's over!" An Yi is ashamed, he is afraid that he will be famous, and he is ashamed, haha! By the way, Brother Wang, Miss Nalan Piaoxue, the beautiful and moving student union president of Normal University, Miss Tong Qianping, the propaganda minister, and Brother Xu Fengqi, the vice president of the student union of Peking University, are all okay? β
Wang Chengjun put down the cup and looked bitter: "Nalan moved to Shanghai last month, and now he is teaching at Shanghai Normal University...... Qifeng stayed on to teach, and was arrested by the Beiping Military Police Headquarters last month for organizing an anti-Japanese rally, and is still in custody. β
An Yi frowned slightly: "The younger brother and Zhang Hanqing are only one side, they have no friendship with each other, and they are even more dirty on the issue of Japan, so they are afraid of ......"
"These foolish brothers know that this time is not for the sake of enlightening the wind, we have basically rescued in many ways, and there is really a reluctant request to come to the door this time, I hope that the general can see the friendship in the past and save Miss Tong Qianping's life.
To tell the truth, Qianping is the fiancΓ©e of the foolish brother, and she is also a ** member, she suddenly disappeared when she went to Jiangxi, and after several inquiries, she learned today that she was imprisoned in the military prison of old Nanchang, and she was beaten and tortured, and I am afraid that she will not survive for a few days. Wang Chengjun turned his face in pain.
An Yi stood up and walked to the main hall, looking at the large portrait of Mr. Zhongshan hanging on the main hall, and did not speak for a long time. After a while, he returned to his original position and sat down under the nervous gaze of everyone, lifted the wine bottle, and poured Wang Chengjun a glass of wine:
"Brother Wang and I will go to Nanchang tomorrow, this matter is quite tricky, but the younger brother will do his best! Here, a toast! After drinking, everyone will have a good night's rest in the cold house, and we will talk about something tomorrow. β
"Thank you, General! Thank you! β
Wang Juncheng's hand trembling slightly when he lifted the wine glass.
He Jing said gratefully: "Little ...... General An, I'm sorry for you! β
An Yi smiled slightly: "Don't bother, anyway, I have to go to Nanchang tomorrow on business, by the way, don't be restrained, come!" Drink first for respect! β
When he was half drunk, An Yi found Liu Hao in the interval between going to the toilet: "You immediately call Xu Yichen and ask him to use all his connections to inquire where a young woman named Tong Qianping is being held?" What are the reasons for being detained? If you are detained, you must reply by 10 a.m. tomorrow to whether or not you have confided any important information during the interrogation, either by telegram or by long-distance telephone. β
"Understood! The subordinates should also call, the Nanchang Military Police Headquarters has many of our brothers who have been transferred from the non-commissioned officer school, and it is not a problem. Liu Hao replied in a low voice.
