Chapter 371: Strength is the truth

readx;?“ Make peace with Song Zheyuan? Will it work? Sun Dianying recalled that not long ago, he and Song Zheyuan were both defeated, although it was Zhang Xinghan who made trouble. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

However, the two sides have lost tens of thousands of horses, and they are already on the same page, and they have a deep blood feud that they do not share the same sky, so how can they shake hands and make peace and form a military alliance?

When Sun Dianying was hesitating, the guard's report came from outside: "Junzuo, Mr. Li Xijiu is here." ”

"Elder Li is here?" Sun Dianying suddenly grabbed a life-saving straw, and hurriedly said: "Quickly invite Elder Li in, no, I will personally go out to pick him up." ”

After finishing speaking, he walked briskly outside, and Liu Yueting followed behind =pig=pig=island=novel, and hurriedly walked out.

Pulling Li Xijiu into the office respectfully, Sun Dianying invited Li Xijiu to sit down, and asked respectfully: "Old Li, we just got the news just now, Zhang Xinghan led more than 200,000 troops out of the customs and went south again, aiming at Chahar, what should we do?" You always give me a note. ”

Li Xijiu frowned when he heard this, and said in a deep voice: "Now, Pingjin has also become the territory of the Northeast Frontier Army, and we have Yan Xishan's Jin Sui Army in the south, Song Zheyuan, a mortal enemy in the west, and the Ma Family Army in the north.

It can be said that there is no way back at all, so there are only two ways in front of us, the first is to resist to the end, but with the combat power of the Northeast Frontier Army, resistance to the end is equivalent to the destruction of the whole army. ”

"What about the second way?" Sun Dianying asked anxiously.

"The second way is to surrender." Li Xijiu said in surprise.

Sun Dianying was a little stunned and said, "Old Li, do you mean to let me surrender to Zhang Xinghan?" ”

"It's not that you have to surrender to Zhang Xinghan, except for Song Zheyuan and us on all sides, we can't surrender, and his overall strength is not as good as our army.

The Ma Jiajun in the north and the Jin Sui army in the south can be the targets of our surrender.

However, it is not impossible to surrender Zhang Xinghan, although Zhang Xinghan is now gaining momentum, but this person has a good reputation, and all the generals who surrendered to him. Almost all of them are reused, regardless of previous suspicions.

If Chairman Sun surrenders to him, he may be able to keep the position of commander of the 41st Army, no matter how bad it is, the army will also be the commander of the integrated division. Li Xijiu said.

"What about Jin Suijun and Ma Jiajun? Can't we surrender to them? Liu Yueting asked.

Li Xijiu shook his head slightly: "Please forgive the old man for saying bluntly, with the character of Yan Xishan and Ma Jiajun, if Chairman Sun surrenders to them, he will definitely be stripped of his military power and take the opportunity to eat our 41st Army." ”

Actually, Li Xijiu has a sentence that he didn't say thoroughly. That is, you Sun Dianying is capricious and opportunistic, except for Zhang Xinghan, who may be generous and can leave you an official and a half-position, who else dares to tolerate you?

"Let me think about it." Although Sun Dianying was desperate, he really couldn't make up his mind for a while, no matter what, he still had tens of thousands of horses under his command, and before the most critical moment, he directly disarmed and surrendered. Somewhat unwilling.

Li Xijiu nodded, expressed understanding, and said, "Chairman Sun, you think about it slowly, but the old man advises you." Some decisions are made early, and the nature is different when they are late. ”

……………………

Zhang Xinghan's 120,000 troops of the Southern Route Army had entered Rehe at this time, and Zhang Xinghan and Jiang Baili also arrived in the provincial capital Chengde with the guard battalion.

In a conference room in the city government compound in Chengde, it has been temporarily changed to Zhang Xinghan's headquarters.

The map is already hanging. Jiang Baili pointed to the map and said, "Commander, my forward troops have arrived in Fengning and are advancing towards Chicheng. For the time being, it has not been resisted by Sun Dian's British army. ”

"Send a telegram to Sun Dianying and tell him that he only has one chance, and immediately lead the army to surrender, and don't blame our army for being ruthless when it's late." Zhang Xinghan said coldly.

"Commander, if Sun Dianying agrees to surrender, do you really plan to take him in?" Jiang Baili said with some concern: "This person is different from others, he and Shi Yousan are both No. 1 people, extremely good at opportunism, and have no loyalty and credibility at all, with such a person, you have to be cautious." ”

Zhang Xinghan smiled slightly and said: "Chief of Staff, you think too much, what kind of person Sun Dianying is, I know better than you, what I want is not him Sun Dianying, but more than 30,000 soldiers under him who have survived the bloody battle." ”

"So what is the main seat going to ......? Jiang Baili made a gesture of wiping his neck with the palm of his hand.

"It's not enough to kill him, but such a person must not lead troops again, otherwise something big will happen sooner or later." Zhang Xinghan said.

"Commander wise." Jiang Baili nodded appreciatively.

……………………

Zhangjiakou, Li Xijiu has already left, Sun Dianying is still hesitating with a sad face, this will not even have the intention of smoking, the whole person is restless, and he is constantly walking back and forth.

Although Liu Yueting was anxious to see it on the side, she didn't dare to say anything at this time, for fear that Sun Dianying would vent her anger on herself.

At this moment, a communications adjutant walked in with a telegram in his hand and saluted Sun Dianying and Liu Yueting: "Chairman, Division Commander Liu, I just received a call from Zhang Xinghan, commander-in-chief of the Northeast Frontier Army. ”

"Huh?" Sun Dianying and Liu Yueting were both taken aback, and hurriedly asked, "What does the telegram say?" ”

The communications adjutant looked down at the message, and was a little embarrassed.

Seeing this, Sun Dianying immediately reached out impatiently and snatched the message.

After taking the telegram and reading it quickly, Sun Dianying's expression became more and more solemn.

Liu Yueting, who was on the side, saw his appearance and hurriedly asked, "Military seat, military seat, what's wrong?" What did the message say? ”

"Zhang Xinghan wanted me to surrender, and said that he would only give me this chance." Sun Dianying said coldly.

"Just one chance?" Liu Yueting took the message from him, and after reading it, he looked at Sun Dianying with an unnatural expression.

After a long time, Liu Yueting asked tentatively: "Chairman, chairman, what should we do?" ”

"Surrender, call Zhang Xinghan back, and say that Lao Tzu is willing to surrender." Sun Dianying sighed and said, but he was beating his little Jiujiu in his heart.

"Commander, are we really going to surrender?" Liu Yueting asked with some uncertainty.

"Well, there is no choice, you can't win the fight, you have nowhere to escape, you have no choice but to surrender." It may be that the calculation in her heart has been completed, and Sun Dianying nodded more happily than just now.

……………………

Chengde, Jiang Baili excitedly took the telegram and said to Zhang Xinghan: "Commander, Sun Dianying has called back." ”

"Oh? What do you say about a callback? Zhang Xinghan asked with interest.

"He has agreed to surrender to our army, but hopes to preserve the formation of their 41st Army." Jiang Baili said.

"This is a good way to say, first notify our vanguard troops, immediately accept Chicheng, and advance to Zhangjiakou and other Chahar hinterlands." Zhang Xinghan said with a playful smile.

Under Sun Dianying's order, more than 30,000 people of the 41st Army laid down their arms and surrendered to the Northeast Frontier Army.

The next day, the Northeast Frontier Army occupied all the area east of Zhangjiakou.

Zhang Xinghan and Jiang Baili arrived at Zhangjiakou under the escort of a large number of guard troops.

Sun Dianying, Liu Yueting, Li Xijiu and others had already gone out of the city to greet them, and they had been waiting for a long time.

Of course, he was "accompanied" by the officers and soldiers of a certain regiment of the Northeast Frontier Army who went out of the city to greet him, and the agents of the Northeast Secret Bureau were not idle, and they were monitoring Sun Dianying and his cadres in every move.

"Commander Sun, Commander Liu, Mr. Li, long time no see, long time no see!" Zhang Xinghan got out of the car and greeted loudly with a smile.

Looking at the officers and soldiers of the Northeast Frontier who were hugging each other, Sun Dianying had a feeling of being deceived, but it had reached this point, so he had to stiffen his scalp and smile and say: "Humble welcome to the arrival of Commander-in-Chief Zhang and Chief of General Staff Jiang." ”

After speaking, he deliberately bowed his head and bent down to show respect.

"You're welcome, you're welcome." Zhang Xinghan calmly accepted his respect, and said with a smile: "Okay, don't stick here, let's talk about it when we go to the city, and talk about it when we go to the city." ”

After speaking, he took the lead and walked forward, and Sun Dianying and the others had to follow behind Zhang Xinghan tremblingly.

After entering the city, Zhang Xinghan made it to Sun Dianying's chairman's chair, Jiang Baili stood aside, and Sun Dianying and others stood on both sides.

Seeing that Zhang Xinghan only cared about lowering his head and smoking, without mentioning his own placement at all, Sun Dianying was a little breathless and glanced at Liu Yueting.

Liu Yueting had to take the lead and said: "Commander-in-Chief Zhang, our Chairman Sun has agreed to accept your reorganization, I don't know what specific arrangements you have for our 41st Army?" ”

"Arrangement?" Zhang Xinghan was deliberately confused, looked around with a blank face, and said, "What arrangement?" ”

Liu Yueting and Sun Dianying's faces changed suddenly, but they still held back their anger and asked patiently: "It's about the arrangement of our 41st Army's reorganization." ”

"Oh, this one." Zhang Xinghan suddenly realized and said: "From now on, the number of the 41st Army will be cancelled, and the officers and men of the headquarters will be divided into two integrated divisions, the numbers are the 217th Division and the 218th Division, which are directly under the command of our Northeast Frontier Army. ”

The two of them were overjoyed when they heard this, and hurriedly bowed their heads to Zhang Xinghan and thanked them: "Thank you Commander-in-Chief Zhang for your cultivation, and the lowly rank will definitely go all out to lead the troops and serve Commander-in-Chief Zhang." ”

"Bringing troops?" Zhang Xinghan shook his head and said: "No, no, from now on, Senior Commander Liu and Commander Sun, you don't have to lead any more troops, go to the Northeast to think about some Qingfu, I will arrange a county magistrate or something like that for you, and you don't have to live a life of licking blood on the tip of this knife every day." ”

"What?" Sun Dianying and Liu Yueting were taken aback when they heard this, their faces changed instantly, and their eyes were full of the anger of being deceived.

"What, do you have any objections?" Zhang Xinghan was not angry, looked up at them and asked.

Sensing the murderous aura in Zhang Xinghan's eyes, the two of them were excited, and hurriedly shook their heads and said, "No, no, I obey Commander-in-Chief Zhang's arrangement." (To be continued......)
