After letting people send Sun Dianying and Liu Yueting away, Zhang Xinghan couldn't help laughing. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Jiang Baili said with some worry on the side: "Commander, we have more military power of Sun Dianying like this, and if we don't kill him, will there be any hidden dangers?" ”

"Hidden dangers? No, you're underestimating the security capabilities of our Secret Service. Zhang Xinghan shook his head, back then, Chairman Jiang was able to imprison Zhang Xiaoliu for half a century, a tomb robber who Sun Dianying died and no one asked, and his own secret bureau still couldn't look down on him? So what do you need this secret bureau for?

"Well, commander, then the next step is Chanan and Chaxi, will we attack directly, or will we adopt the same means as we did against Sun Dianying?" Jiang Baili nodded and asked.

&nbs[pig^pig^island^novel][]. [zhu] [zhudao]. []p; "This kind of means is also used to deal with Sun Dianying, the 29th Army is capable of many people, which is not comparable to the 41st Army." Zhang Xinghan paused and said: "Let the troops press in the southwest direction first, and see what their reaction is, if they really can't talk, then they can only speak with their fists." ”

"Okay, I'll go and deliver the order." Jiang Baili happily accepted the order and left.

……………………

Xinghe County, Provisional Headquarters of the 29th Army.

Song Zheyuan, Zhang Zizhong, Xiao Zhenying and Tong Linge and other senior generals are all listed.

Since the last bloody battle of Sun Dianying's 41st Army, the strength of the 29th Army has been greatly damaged, and it has not been able to recover.

As soon as he heard that Zhang Xinghan led more than 200,000 troops of the Northeast Frontier Army to the west, Sun Dianying immediately surrendered without even resisting.

Xiao Zhenying and others immediately summoned Zhang Zizhong and other senior generals to urgently discuss the military situation.

Looking at the people present, Xiao Zhenying took the lead in speaking: "Colleagues, now Zhang Xinghan's Northeast Frontier Army has taken Zhangjiakou bloodlessly, and the front of the troops is directly aimed at the southern and western Chasa regions.

The goal is clearly us, what do we do now? You can come up with any good ideas. ”

Everyone looked at each other, but shook their heads, and no one could say anything good about the solution.

Zhang Zizhong stood up at this time and said, "Chief of Staff." I have some opinions on this, and I don't know whether to talk about it or not. ”

"Speak, what can't be said." Xiao Zhenying waved his hand.

Zhang Zizhong nodded and said: "At present, the enemy is outnumbered, and the strength of the Northeast Frontier Army is more than ten times that of ours, and the level of weapons and equipment is even worse.

If such a war were to be fought, we would have no chance of winning at all, and this would not be to resist the Japanese aggression, even if we knew that we would not be defeated, and that the disparity in the strength of the enemy and our forces would be too great. We also have to fight to the death to defend our home and country.

This is a matter between the Chinese themselves, and I think there is nothing that cannot be discussed with Zhang Xinghan, and judging by his performance in a series of previous battles against the Japanese invaders, he should be a patriot who is still loyal to the country and the nation. ”

Zhang Zizhong's prestige in the 29th Army is second only to Xiao Zhenying, and his words still carry a lot of weight.

As soon as his voice fell, someone asked uncertainly: "Senior Commander Zhang, do you mean to let us make peace with Zhang Xinghan?" ”

"It's not that we make peace with him, but that we talk to him." Zhang Zizhong said: "As long as we can preserve the strength of our 29th Army, everything is easy to say." ”

"Preserve our troop strength? Master Zhang. Sun Dianying did this, and Zhang Xinghan agreed, but after the Northeast Frontier Army entered Zhangjiakou, what was the result. You saw it too.

If we really put the Northeast border guards into the city, then it will be too late. It was Liu Ruming who spoke.

"I don't express an opinion on this, but isn't it better for Sun Dianying's personality to suffer such retribution?" Zhang Zizhong paused and said, "But." There is a point that we have to figure out if we don't talk about it. Then Zhang Xinghan's Northeast Frontier Army will also capture the entire Chahar, but it is walking by stepping on the corpses of more than 20,000 of our soldiers.

So we have to talk to Zhang Xinghan, but it is by no means a disarming surrender without a position. ”

"So what's the matter? Could it be that when the forces of the two sides are extremely unequal, will Zhang Xinghan negotiate with us fairly? Liu Ruming asked puzzled.

"It's not easy to say this, so we need to send someone to probe Zhang Xinghan's tone, and first figure out his combat intentions and goals, so that we can prescribe the right medicine and deal with it." Zhang Zizhong said.

"Senior Commander Zhang, this suggestion was made by you, then you will serve as the liaison officer between the two sides, responsible for negotiating with Zhang Xinghan, of course, now I will go to find out the wind first." Xiao Zhenying's eyes lit up.

"Okay, I'll try to take a trip!" Zhang Zizhong saw that everyone was looking at him, so he had to nod.

……………………

In Zhangjiakou, Zhang Xinghan was discussing the next military action with Jiang Baili around the map, and Guo Zhong walked in quickly with a telegram in his hand.

He stood up and saluted the two of them: "Commander, Chief of Staff, the 29th Army is calling." ”

"Read it." Zhang Xinghan didn't raise his head.

"The 29th Army called and said that they wanted to discuss with us about a peaceful settlement of the situation in Chahar, and if the commander agreed to meet with us, they would send General Zhang Zizhong to come and hold talks with us in person." Guo Zhong said.

"Zhang Zizhong?" Zhang Xinghan still admired the performance of this patriotic general in history, so he was not so disgusted in his heart, looked at Jiang Baili and said, "Chief of Staff, what do you think?" Shall we meet them? ”

"It's okay to see them, but the key is to negotiate, how to negotiate? What do they talk to us? Where is the confidence? Jiang Baili talked about the matter.

"Actually, I'm also very curious, anyway, my Northern Route Army is still on the march, let's not be in a hurry, so let's meet them." Zhang Xinghan said with a slight smile.

About seven or eight hours later, Zhang Zizhong rushed to Zhangjiakou with a group of subordinates on war horses.

Zhang Xinghan and Jiang Baili met with this famous anti-Japanese general in history at the command headquarters, and saw him, about forty years old, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, a burly figure, and a pair of tiger eyes.

Zhang Xinghan also saw Zhang Xinghan for the first time, and when he saw him so young, he couldn't help but secretly sigh, he was really a hero.

"Zhang Zizhong, commander of the 29th Army and 38th Division of the National Revolutionary Army, was ordered to come to negotiate with Commander-in-Chief Zhang on the peaceful settlement of the situation in Chahar." Zhang Zizhong first showed his intention and identity.

Zhang Xinghan was slightly surprised, Zhang Xinghan nodded slightly and said, "Master Zhang, please sit down and talk." ”

After Zhang Zizhong nodded and sat down, Jiang Baili got Zhang Xinghan's signal and asked, "Master Zhang, I don't know what you think?" Is this Chahar going to fight, or is it going to be peaceful? ”

Zhang Zizhong did not directly answer Jiang Baili's question, but turned his head to look at Zhang Xinghan and said: "Commander-in-Chief Zhang, there is a poem in the ancients, which is called boiled beans to be held as soup, and soaked beans are used as juice. The kei burns under the kettle, and the beans cry in the kettle: this is from the same root, why is it too anxious to fry each other!

We both belong to the battle sequence of the National Revolutionary Army, and we are both brothers in Paoze, why do we kill each other and do things that make our enemies happy and our relatives painful? ”

"Yes, we are indeed the Pao Ze brothers, as long as the 29th Army is all changed into the uniforms of our Northeast Army, and then reorganized according to the battle sequence of our Northeast Frontier Army, everyone will be brothers." Zhang Xinghan said lukewarmly.

Zhang Zizhong's tone was stunned, he didn't expect Zhang Xinghan to be so powerful.

"Commander-in-Chief Zhang, is there really no room for negotiation? Could it be that your two armies really fought each other, watching the blood of Chahar's fathers and villagers flow like a river, and they were miserable? Zhang Zizhong asked unrelentingly.

"General Zhang, I read that you are still loyal, so I will tell you again, whether the Chahar incident is resolved peacefully or is full of blood, it is all up to the top of your 29th Army to decide.

If you are not selfish, why can't you change into the uniform of our Northeast Frontier Army and undergo a unified regularized reorganization and training?

Whether I, Zhang Xinghan, really plan to support the army and respect myself, or am I a person who spills his blood for the sake of sincerely fighting devils, I believe that the eyes of 40,000 people are bright. ”

Zhang Zizhong was speechless when asked, muttered a few sentences in a low voice intermittently, looked up and said to Zhang Xinghan: "Commander-in-Chief Zhang, please think twice." ”

"I've thought very clearly, General Zhang, you go back and bring my words, if you are not willing to accept a peaceful solution before sunset tomorrow, then I can only choose to use force to solve it." Zhang Xinghan said resolutely.

"Well, well, I'll go back and report to our military seat." Zhang Zizhong sighed helplessly.

After getting up to say goodbye, he quickly disappeared under the night sky on his horse.

……………………

Xinghe County, just after dawn the next day, Zhang Zizhong's face returned, in the military headquarters of the 29th Army, everyone obviously didn't sleep all night, and when they saw Zhang Zizhong coming, they came forward and asked: "What, how?" How's the talk? ”

"Everyone, please be quiet." Xiao Zhenying stretched out his hand to stop the noisy crowd and said to Zhang Zizhong: "Brother Xinchen, how is it?" How's the talk? ”

Zhang Zizhong shook his head and said: "Zhang Xinghan's attitude is very tenacious, there is no room for negotiation, we must accept his integration." ”

"Have you inquired about their ultimate strategic goals?" Liu Ruming asked.

Zhang Zizhong still shook his head and said: "No, Zhang Xinghan's attitude is very indifferent and resolute, I don't have time to talk to him in detail, and he doesn't give us this opportunity." ”

"So what are we going to do?" Everyone looked at Xiao Zhenying and Song Zheyuan with a look of hope.

Xiao Zhenying pondered for a long time, and after glancing at Song Zheyuan and Tong Linge, he said, "Since Zhang Xinghan doesn't give us a chance to negotiate peace, then we will find another way." ”

"What's the solution?" Liu Ruming asked.

"Abandon Chahar and retreat to Suiyuan or the Shanxi border." Xiao Zhenying said. (To be continued......)
