Chapter 206: Cooperation Breaks Down

After Wang Mei contacted the Central Red Army Headquarters. Soon after, the Central Committee replied to the telegram, instructing Wang Mei that the 54th Group Army was the first contingent in China with the most advanced equipment and the most sincere anti-Japanese war. In order to enhance friendship between the two armies as much as possible without violating principles, the central authorities have agreed to Tian Zheng's request and will send central leaders to meet with Tian Zheng in the near future. During this period, Wang Mei, as a representative of the Red Army, was fully responsible for all matters related to contact with the 54th Army.

Wang Mei was stunned after reading the telegram, but she did not expect that the central authorities would have such a high opinion of the 54th Group Army. And he really promised to send senior leaders to talk. But then I was relieved. The 54th Group Army is now a dazzling new star in China. It is blocking the front line of resistance against Japan at an incomparable speed, showing itself in front of 40,000 compatriots across the country.

In the following time, Tian Zheng spent the whole day not only deploying the defense of each army, but also studying the movements of the Japanese army. According to the intelligence, the Japanese army's plan to break through the Lugou Bridge this time was to further shrink and shrink its forces when the frontal troops and the puppet army troops on both wings were all frustrated, and the puppet army troops on both wings were all assembled towards the Japanese troops on the front, apparently planning to temporarily act as a turtle with a shrunken head, waiting for further planning from the Japanese Kwantung Army headquarters and base camp, as well as the support of soldiers, weapons and equipment!

At the military meeting of the front-line joint command, Tian Zheng briefly talked about the current situation. Song Zheyuan, commander of the 29th Army of the friendly National Revolutionary Army, sat in the first place. On either side sat the higher education generals of the two armies in turn.

"Commander Song, the Japanese army brazenly launched a war. Completely ignoring previous political agreements. The wolf ambitions of the Japanese army have been exposed to the world. If Commander Song continues to think that the war with Japan is only a partial friction and wants to solve it through political dialogue. I'm afraid I'm going to suffer a big loss! Wang Zilu, chief of staff of the 54th Army, spoke first.

Song Zheyuan frowned slightly, "I think this is just a moment of anger for the Japanese." The reason why there was no consensus on reunification between our army and the Japanese army. If political representatives had been sent to negotiate, the war would have stopped immediately. ”

Tong Linge, deputy commander of the 29th Army, spoke. "This incident is really too involved, so I have to invite you out of your cultivation as a last resort. However, what Commander Tian said was true. The Japanese attack was carefully prepared. Originally, our army had the 37th Division Feng Zhi'an Department to guard the Nanyuan position, and the 38th Division Zhang Zizhong's Division, the 132nd Division Zhao Dengyu's Division, and the 143rd Division Liu Ruming's Department to guard the surrounding passes, and the whole army had more than 100,000 strong soldiers and horses, and the Japanese army had less than 30,000 people, so it was difficult to cross our army's defense line. But in fact, we can't imagine it at all. The Japanese were under fire support from aircraft artillery. With armored vehicles to open the way, the infantry coordinated to attack, in less than two days, our army has lost more than 10,000 troops in the Nanyuan position! If it weren't for Commander Tian leading his troops to arrive in time, help our army stabilize its position, and give the enemy a powerful blow, I'm afraid that our army would have fled like a lost dog at this moment! This pass from the north to the south was completely opened by the Japanese army! The military seat, the two armies are at war. It is inevitable, please decisively order the whole army to fight against the Japanese invaders! ”

Tong Linge has been commanding the battle on the front line of Nanyuan, and has the most say in everything that has happened in recent days. After saying it at this moment, there were tears in his eyes. The face is flushed. Presumably, the urgency and grief in the heart of this iron-clad man have reached an extreme level!

"Commander, our unit suffered more than 2,000 troops in the battle of the Japanese army. If it weren't for Commander Tian leading the troops to arrive in time. I'm afraid that my department has no number! : Zhao Dengyu, commander of the 132nd Division, also spoke.

Zhang Zizhong and Liu Ruming also spoke in solidarity.

Song Zheyuan's brows furrowed tightly. There was also an obvious sense of anger and anger on his face.

At this time, a lieutenant colonel of the National Army sitting at the back of the seat stood up and spoke, "Commander Song." Instructions from the chairman! ”

Everyone in the conference room stood up, except for the 54th Army. The lieutenant colonel continued, "Song Zheyuan's troops bravely resisted the Japanese invaders. After the decision of the committee, Song Zheyuan was awarded the Order of the Blue Sky and the White Sun. It is hoped that Song Zheyuan's ministry can make persistent efforts and set an example for the cause of China's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression! The order reminded all officers and men of Song Zheyuan's department to firmly establish the idea of loyalty to the party-state and strictly guard against the influence of reactionary remarks by the Red Army and the 54th Group Army. In view of the complicated situation on the front line, lest General Song neglect supervision during the War of Resistance, the Military Command Bureau was specially dispatched to set up a front-line supervision department to eliminate all destructive factors for our army! ”

When the lieutenant colonel finished reading out, Tian Zheng's face became very ugly. Yan Shisan looked at the face of the lieutenant colonel of the National Army, and said to Song Zheyuan gloomily, "Presumably this is the leader of the inspection department established by the Military Command Bureau, right?" ”

The lieutenant colonel stood up, "Contemptible Wang Zigang, thanks to the cultivation of the chairman of the committee and the love of Director Dai, he has been added to the head of the supervision department, and has full authority to deal with the political problems of the front-line soldiers. Yan deputy military seat. You also heard the words of the chairman. It's better for your troops to evacuate here, lest you and my army be hurt and angry! ”

Wang Zigang's face was arrogant. He didn't even look at Yan Thirteen. Although he was saying this to Yan Shisan, his eyes were staring straight at Tian Zheng.

When Yan Shisan heard this, he immediately went into a rage on the spot. Tian Zheng waved his hand and stood up.

"Commander Song. Our troops have come thousands of miles, but I don't want to see my Chinese compatriots being ravaged by the iron hooves of the Japanese invaders. Now your Chairman Chiang has ordered the expulsion. What is Commander Song's opinion? Tian Zheng's tone was very indifferent, and the high-level officials of the 54th Group Army knew that this was a manifestation of the military seat being very angry. On weekdays, the military seat treats everyone very kindly. Only the things that make him very angry will behave so indifferently.

Song Zheyuan's face turned pale. Tong Linge and the others immediately got up to keep Tian Zheng, and said good things about the round. Helplessly, the lieutenant colonel minister of the Supervision Department of the Military Command Bureau and Song Zheyuan, the commander of the 29th Army, all had gloomy faces and did not speak.

Tian Zheng waited for a minute. Song Zheyuan said lightly, "My 29th Army is strong and strong, and there are only 30,000 Japanese soldiers blocking the pillar, so naturally I don't need help from others!" I am very touched by Commander Tian's patriotism in the Anti-Japanese War, but this is different, and it is not easy to conspire with it! ”

When Tian Zheng heard this, he turned around and left. All the top echelons of the 54th Army also followed and left. Tong Linge and others tried their best to keep it, but Song Zheyuan was the army commander, and if he didn't agree, there was no way. Before leaving, Tian Zheng dropped a faint sentence, "Our army is running thousands of miles, and if we leave, we will be laughed at by the world." Moreover, it does not conform to the purpose of our army in the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression to save the country. Our troops will be withdrawn within three days. I also asked Commander Song to properly arrange the defense in line with the national plan of the Anti-Japanese War, so as not to be exploited by the Japanese invaders! ”

Song Zheyuan also said lightly, "Don't worry about Commander Tian!" ”

This time, the 54th Group Army went to Nanyuan, Beiping City to jointly resist Japan, and it was completely aborted. Tian Zheng was very indignant at Song Zheyuan's luck and Chiang Kai-shek's small belly! When the reporter was interviewed, Tian Zheng bluntly scolded, "It is the sorrow of my Huaxia report that there is such a leader in Huaxia!" It is the misfortune of the national army to have such a commander! (To be continued......)
