Chapter 249: A little unconfident

Hengyang, Hunan, where the Northern Expeditionary Army of Guangdong will join the Northern Expeditionary Army of Guangxi, is an extremely important military stronghold. At this time, there was a roar, and dozens of angry soldiers shouted at the opposite side with guns: "This is the armament of our Fourth Army, why are you seizing it?" ”

I saw an officer wearing a disdainful expression walking out from the opposite side, with a toothpick in his mouth, and his face was full of indifference: "What are you yelling, what are you yelling?" What is the Fourth Army and the Fifth Army, as long as it is the Northern Expeditionary Army, it must be arranged in a unified manner. From now on, Hengyang will establish a huge military supply organization and transfer center, and in the future, the supplies of the front-line troops will be uniformly sent from here. ”

At this moment, a squinting captain of the Food Bureau walked out from behind the Fourth Army, glanced at the Sven, and then turned back to his soldiers: "What's the matter?" ”

"Company commander, they detain our armaments, and what else do they say about unified equipment, this is our Fourth Army, why should they deduct it?"

The soldiers of the Fourth Army angrily complained to their little superiors, and Officer Sven was even more proud: "This was detained two days ago, your young commander must have known, but it is not that there is no movement, which shows that your commander understands the righteousness and also approves of our approach, hahaha, you can go, you need military quartermasters when you go back, remember to find me." ”

Officer Sven smirked, the little company commander here had just rushed over from Nanning, and after a cold look, he said again: "What should I do if I intercept the military quartermaster, according to the military regulations of the Fourth Army?" ”

Officer Sven was stunned for a moment, and then heard the soldiers of the Fourth Army over there: "Well, this, the company commander, the food and salary bureau stipulates it, but without the signature of the army commander or the director of the bureau, he will keep the military quartermaster privately, and he will be shot according to the order." At the same time, the unauthorized detention of the armed escort personnel of the Food and Salary Bureau can be regarded as a declaration of war and can be resolved by force. ”

Officer Sven frowned, and saw the company commander nodding: "I see." The tone was so flat, and then he turned to Officer Sven: "You seized our military supplies and confiscated my soldiers' weapons?" ”

Officer Sven didn't know why, and suddenly felt a little uncomfortable: "That, we are the quartermaster of the baggage station appointed by the General Headquarters of the Northern Expeditionary Army, and I just follow the rules." ”

The company commander smiled: "Although you didn't answer, but, listening to this meaning, it should be your seizure." Now, give you a chance to let go, or else you will bear the consequences. ”

Officer Sven suddenly remembered again, damn, what am I afraid of, is it possible that they still dare to rob it? At this time, it was the time of the Northern Expedition of the whole army, which one had the courage to engage in infighting.

"I'm sorry I can't let it go, let your commander come in person."

As soon as Officer Sven spoke, his voice sounded, and he didn't react at all, but the other onlookers reacted, and they were surprised: "This, this, actually killed." ”

The company commander slowly withdrew his pistol and shouted: "This person maliciously intercepted the quartermaster of the Fourth Army and delayed the Northern Expedition, he is a spy of Beiyang." ”

An hour later, the company commander whispered to a man with a hat pressed low: "It has been done according to the order, and things will definitely make a big fuss." ”

The hat couldn't help nodding, and then sighed and said: "Hey, if it weren't for the last resort, there would be no need to take this step, and when the commander knew, we would definitely not be able to escape, but for the sake of the commander's great cause, it's worth it, you can go, your family is arranged, don't worry." ”

Zhuzhou, the temporary headquarters of the Fourth Army, Tan Yanmin pretended to have nothing to do with me, lazily beside him a little bit of a good person. And the other is the angry Tang Shengzhi, who looks angry. At this time, Yang Shuai looked coldly at Tang Shengzhi, who was shouting.

"You said, why did you kill my quartermaster, it was the quartermaster station established at the headquarters of the Northern Expedition in Guangzhou, and you actually killed me."

Li Zongren stepped forward lightly and said in Yang Shuai's ear: "Commander, find out, that person is his concubine's cousin." ”

Yang Shuai: "You ordered my things to be seized?" ”

Tang Shengzhi: "What do you say, what do you mean by me giving an order, that's what the headquarters requires, shouldn't the Northern Expedition be a unified command?" ”

Yang Shuai smiled and said, "Oh, unified command, then Commander Tan ordered you to arrive in Xiangtan three days ago, have you arrived?" ”

Tang Shengzhi was stunned for a moment, and then: "My army has no money and no food, how to go, of course I must guarantee before I can move." ”

Yang Shuai suddenly became cold and forced Tang Shengzhi: "When you say this, do you have a clear conscience?" You remembered for me, I am willing to give as much as I want to give the Northern Expeditionary Army, and I also gave it, but now if you dare to move the logistics of the Fourth Army, your brother-in-law yesterday was just a warning. Yang Hua, send-off. ”

Even Tan Yanmin was kicked out, and as soon as the people were gone, Yang Shuai was furious and kicked over a table: "What kind of person is this, it's still the Northern Expedition, I'm sorry." Also, what's the matter with the Food and Salary Bureau, and how did you move the gun? ”

No one in the command could give an answer, and it was not until the evening of the same day that Yang Shuai waited for a sentence from Li Bing. Yang Shuai couldn't help frowning and told Yang Yongtai about the matter.

The two were silent for a long time, and Yang Yongtai: "Commander, it seems that some people below have gone a little too far, and this can be investigated." However, the commander cannot ignore the ideas of these people, if the commander blindly uses the strong, he is afraid that he will lose the hearts of the people. ”

Yang Shuai: "Unity is a good thing, but this kind of unity is suffocating. Okay, I will press Tang Shengzhi and Guangzhou on this matter, and deal with it internally in a low-key manner, but I can't help but warn some people, you also have to talk to your old friends, you can't do it at any time. ”

The matter passed like this, and the only thing that was under pressure was that Tang Shengzhi was overwhelmed by the concubine, and everything else remained the same.

On the 10th of January, Wu Peifu's first division of 4,000 people attacked the north of the Miluo River from Yueyang, Zhao Hengxi actually took the initiative to retreat thirty miles, Tan Yanmin was shocked when he heard the news, and hurriedly asked for help from Yang Shuai.

Yang Shuai was also furious, but the military situation was urgent, so he hurriedly waved his army north, ran all the way, and rushed to the Miluo River.

"Army commander, Pingjiang, you must divide your troops to defend Pingjiang, otherwise Wu Peifu may divide your troops and detour behind our army, which will be dangerous."

"Okay, immediately send 3,000 people to Pingjiang to garrison, and pay attention to them, not only to guard Wu Peifu in the north of the embankment, but also to beware of the Beiyang Army in Jiangxi from crossing the mountains and attacking from the east, you must be careful about this."

"Yes, Commander. Commander, the enemy is about to cross the river again. ”

"There are no doors, call me. What the hell, what's going on, how did we fight on the battlefield after our Fourth Army, who ordered the Fifth Army to retreat? ”

"Commander, it's not an order, Zhao Hengxi ran away by himself."

For three days and three nights, Yang Shuai was already deeply stimulated, and some people had even suggested that he simply retreat and let Wu Peifu go to Changsha to see what they did. After three days of fierce fighting, only Cheng Qian expressed a little help to Yang Shuai, and the others were completely irrelevant.

Yang Shuai gritted his teeth and raised his head to Li Zongren: "In the name of the Fourth Army of the Northern Expedition, send a clear code telegram to Guangzhou, just say that the Northern Expedition and the Northern Expedition, now only our army is fighting independently, and needs support, and if we can't support it, we can't ensure the safety of Changsha." ”

Hmph, in my opinion, it's not just Tan Yanmin who wants outsiders, I'm afraid there are many people who also want to consume our strength with this, interesting, interesting, I've given in to this extent, what else?

The Fourth Army and the Fifth Army of the Northern Expedition fought fiercely with Wu Peifu in Hunan, and at the same time, the East Route Army, based on the base camp of Beiyang Jiujiang, the Beiyang Army also began to move southward in a big way, from the Wuchang line, the troops were divided into two routes, all the way into Fujian, all the way directly south, wanting to defeat Li Liejun in southern Jiangnan.

As a result, Yang Shuai received a response that the First Army and the Second Army had already moved north from Jiangxi and Fujian respectively. In this way, the Northern Expeditionary Army can be described as a three-way army, hoping to meet at the Yangtze River, and at the same time, the headquarters also gave Tan Yanmin an order not to be afraid of fighting.

said so, but Yang Shuai knew that Guangzhou had hardly any help to Yang Shuai.

Yang Shuai: "What to do, the Fifth Army itself is not an army that can command like an arm, Cheng Qian, Tang Shengzhi, Zhao Hengxi, and Tan Yanmin himself, they are not wary of each other, they all want to be the boss of Hunan, and now, they are fighting among themselves, but we are unlucky." ”

"Commander, if we retreat and let Wu Peifu fight under Changsha City, I don't think they will still have infighting."

Yang Shuai shook his head and resolutely: "No, the Northern Expedition has now fallen into polarization, and there are people who are not optimistic about the Northern Expedition, if the first battle is lost, the Northern Expedition will be basically abolished." Therefore, even if it is really only our army that stands alone, we cannot retreat, and even if we can't win, we can't lose. As for the Fifth Army, bear with it first, Guangzhou has also sent a lot of lobbyists, I hope they can achieve something. ”

Changsha, Tan Yanhong.

"Sun Wen is also a good idea, a Northern Expedition, if this is really done well by him, Guangdong, Hunan, Jiangxi, Fujian, and even Liangjiang have been taken by him, and then he can be president again, and he will not change his mind."

"Overseer, what should we do, if we don't participate in the Northern Expedition, the people in the province will scold us to death."

"Who said that if you don't go to the Northern Expedition, you must go to the Northern Expedition, but it's not for us to go, it's for Tang Shengzhi to go, these old little foxes, although they are cunning, but I am the army commander. Hmph, I was polite before, but from now on, I will give an order, a public order, as for whether to implement it or not, that is their business, when the time comes, they will explain to Sun Wen themselves, they will tell Yang Shuai to go, and they will explain to the people. ”

"Overseer, high, really high."

"Hmph, hey, the performance of the Fourth Army in the past few days has made me very worried, this Yang Shuai, what kind of person is he, the enemy soldiers are too capable of fighting, this is not a good thing after all, Guangxi, too close to Hunan."
