At the same time, the soldiers of the 1st Division and the 3rd Division of the 1st Army were divided into two routes, the 1st Division went out of Pingshan and Haifeng, and the 3rd Division provided flank cover for the 1st Division on the right bank of the Xizhi River through Sanduozhu, and the General Headquarters led the 1st Brigade and a detachment of the 2nd Division to follow up. When the enemy discovered the attempt of our Fourth Army and Cheng to command the troops, the enemy had three options: one of them was to go north with the main force to rescue Wuhua Xingning; second, concentrate the main force to besiege the first army; The third retreated, retreated to the border of Fujian and Guangdong, where they fought a decisive battle with us. But no matter what tactics they take, they will be attacked by our army. The second response is exactly what we want; In the first strategy, the First Army on the southern route will become a roundabout force, and the Fourth Army on the northern route and the troops under Cheng's command will become a luring force, so we estimate that the final decisive battle will take place here. Chen Zhuo's baton stayed on the map for a while, and then pointed to Jiexi and Anliu.

After Chen Zhuo finished speaking, there was a temporary silence in the venue, and after a while, Cheng Qian said: "Okay, the plan is thorough, and the situation has been taken into account." ”

Li Jishen was unhappy in his heart, and he once again felt that since Hu Hanmin and Xu Chongzhi left, the Cantonese generals lacked the support of the central government. He has no opinion on getting rid of Xu Chongzhi, he and Xu Chongzhi already have contradictions, but Hu Hanmin is different, Hu Hanmin is still his teacher in name, if Hu Hanmin is not really involved in the Liao case, he will definitely be upset. His face was cloudy in the light. Chiang Kai-shek waited for the meeting and no one spoke, so he announced that the battle plan would be carried out accordingly, and that the generals of all departments must supervise and lead their headquarters to act quickly and not delay it.

The Eastern Expeditionary Army quickly adjusted its deployment, Li Jishen led the Fourth Army to the north, and the First Army assembled at Pingshan. The Huizhou two said that Yang Kunru retreated Haifeng, and the generals of the Chen army felt that it was difficult to lead, and held an emergency meeting in Shantou, at which fierce disputes also broke out, and Li Yibiao, who attended with illness, proposed to stick to Jieyang, Huilai, Chaoyang, and Puning with the main force; If they can't win, they will retreat to Fujian to preserve their strength; However, Huang Qiang and Liu Zhilu opposed it and advocated a counterattack on Huizhou; Hong Zhaolin advocated that the fish die and the net is broken, and asked Chen Jiongming to come back to preside over the plan; In the end, everyone quarreled, the original Lin Hu Department would not be willing to be commanded by Hong Zhaolin, Hong Zhaolin had many troops, and he was even more unwilling to be commanded by Sanhuang, and finally reached in front of him, Hong Zhaolin fought on the southern front, and if it was unfavorable, he would retreat into Fujian, and the original Lin Hu Department would fight on the northern front, and if it was unfavorable, he would retreat into Jiangxi, and if he needed to cooperate, the two sides would discuss again.

Chen Jiongming heard that Huizhou changed hands in Hong Kong, anxious, he knew that the strength of the Dongjiang Chen army was weak, and in desperation, he turned to his original subordinate Deng Benyin for help, and he begged in the letter: "...., Guangzhou's red political axe to unify Guangdong is actually an established strategy, first the Dongjiang River and then the eight subordinates, if the brother sits and watches the Dongjiang River fall, then the next step will be to add eight subordinates, how can the brother refuse, the younger brother said today and the brother said," and then further offered: "If the Red Army can be defeated, the power of the brother is also, the Guangdong army should listen to the orders of the brother, and Guangzhou should also be governed by the brother..." ”

After receiving the letter, Deng Benyin convened his staff to discuss, and everyone thought that although it was a bit mysterious to let Deng govern Guangzhou, but after the fall of the Dongjiang River, it was inevitable that the national political axe soldiers would add eight subordinates, so it was better to take advantage of the main force of the national political axe to fall into the Dongjiang battlefield and attack Guangzhou, and if he won, he could at least divide Guangdong equally, so Deng Benyin mobilized troops to launch an attack on Guangzhou, and even went down to Enping, Luoding, Yunfu, Kaiping, Taishan and other places; Approaching the mouth of the Nandaemun River in Guangzhou.

Chen Mingshu, commander-in-chief of the South Road of the National Revolutionary Army, has a division of strength in his hands, but his tenth division is expanded from the first brigade of the first division of the original Guangdong Army, and the two regiments under the first brigade are Zhang Fakui's regiment and Jiang Guangnai's regiment, and Zhang Fakui's regiment was transferred out to form a separate reading brigade, so the tenth division was actually expanded by Jiang Guangnai's regiment into three regiments (this division later participated in the Nanchang Uprising under the leadership of Cai Tingkai, broke away from the rebel army on the way south, and was reorganized into the famous 19th Route Army, and then stationed in Songhu, After the war, he was transferred to Fujian and launched the Fujian Incident, after the defeat, the troops were reorganized, and all the officers above the company level were dismissed, and the 19th Route Army collapsed. Naturally, heroic troops should be remembered by the people. -- Author's book. Among them, the 28th Regiment Cai Tingkai Department was still stationed in Wuzhou, Guangxi, and only the 29th Regiment Fan Hanjie Division and the 30th Regiment Dai Ji Division, the two regiments were mostly recruits and weak in combat effectiveness, because they could not resist Deng Benyin's attack, Chen Mingshu almost retreated without a fight, concentrated his troops at Jiangkou, and at the same time successively sent urgent reports to Guangzhou and asked for reinforcements.

Tan Yankai, Zhu Peide, Wang Maogong, Zhang Zhizhong, Jiang Zuobin, former chief of staff of the base camp, Borodin, and Song Ziwen, the minister of finance of Soviet Russia, surprised everyone was that Wang Jingwei actually asked Zhang Zhizhong to call Zhuang Jihua and let him attend such a high-level meeting.

Zhuang Jihua is not clear, he is very busy during this time, every day at school, Guangzhou two ends, every week to Chiang Kai-shek two secret circulars, today is unwilling to be pulled by Zhang Zhizhong to a meeting, more importantly, he thinks that this is not a crisis at all, Zhu Peide and Tan Yankai's tens of thousands of horses are still in the north did not move, said to defend Hunan Zhao Hengti and Jiangxi Benren, in fact, the Jiangxi army was transferred to Anhui by Sun Chuanfang, and was fighting with Zhang Zuolin in Xuzhou, Hunan Zhao Hengti is a dog guarding the house, He had no intention of attacking Guangzhou at all, but was always preparing to defend against the attack of Guangdong, and he didn't believe that these spirits didn't see it. asked Zhang Zhizhong what he asked him to do, but Zhang Zhizhong was also puzzled and told him that he didn't know. Therefore, Zhuang Jihua found a corner to sit down in the conference room, and made up his mind to bring only ears and no mouth; Let's see what tricks the bigwigs are playing.

Soon after Zhuang Jihua sat down, Li Zhilong also came to the conference room, he had just been promoted to director of the Political Department of the Navy, and his military rank was also promoted to rear admiral, it was when he was complacent, he saw Zhuang Jihua sitting in the corner of the conference room, he was slightly stunned, and then came to pull him to the front row to sit, Zhuang Jihua refused to go anyway, he was also a little dissatisfied with Li Zhilong, because the last time he pulled Li Zhilong to see Chiang Kai-shek, Li Zhilong has never been to Chiang Kai-shek again. Seeing that he refused to go, Li Zhilong was inconvenient to go to the front row, so he pulled a chair and sat next to him. Then he whispered to him, "I'll watch the play later." Zhuang Jihua smiled.

As expected, Zhu Peide and Tan Yankai talked and laughed before the meeting began, Tan Yankai is a former Qing Hanlin, he speaks well and drags the text, and has a bit of Kong Yiji's demeanor, Zhu Peide is a martial artist, but he can have a few words with Tan Hanlin, Jiang Zuobin is a publicly-funded student in the former Qing Dynasty, he can also say a few words, for a while, you passed in the venue, I also came over, and let the three of them make the atmosphere lively, but when Wang Jingwei and Borodin came, the atmosphere suddenly fell cold, and when it came to sending troops, Zhu Peide and Tan Yankai began to complain, One will say that the equipment of the troops is too poor, and the other will say that the troops of Hunan and Jiangxi are abnormal, and there is a lot of pressure to take the lead. Wang Jingwei coordinated in many ways, and finally Zhu Peide agreed to send troops, but asked the Nationalist to give 2,000 rifles, 50 machine guns, and 10 cannons.

As soon as Zhu Peide said this, Zhuang Jihua suddenly realized that the fundamental purpose of these people was to stare at the batch of weapons and equipment aided by Soviet Russia stored in the Whampoa Military Academy. After Shaji, Soviet Russia was worried about the collapse of the national political axe, and sent a batch of ordnance, including 50,000 rifles (note above), it turned out that this batch of weapons was to be equipped with all the party army, but the expansion of the party army could not keep up, only a part of it was used, and more than 20,000 rifles were stored in Huangpu, this batch of weapons caused countless people to drool, Chiang Kai-shek was there, resolutely refused, and now Chiang Kai-shek is not there, these people take the opportunity to coerce, Wang Jingwei will also push the boat.

The gun was given, the money was given; Of course, Zhu Peide was going to send troops, but he still only promised to send one division, so that the total strength of the southern front was only more than 10,000 people, and the strength was not superior; Jiang Zuobin proposed to contact Li Zongren in Guangxi and ask them to send troops as well, Deng Benyin's defense area spanned two provinces, including Lianzhou and Qinzhou in Guangxi, and Li Zongren and Huang Shaohong unified all Guangxi regions except these two regions, so they were naturally willing to send troops. The plan proposed by Jiang Zuobin was that the Guangxi troops would divide into two routes, one way to attack Qinzhou, and the other to attack Lianjiang with Luchuan Bobai and cut off Deng Benyin's retreat.

Gao, Zhuang Jihua secretly shouted in his heart, this Jiang Zuobin looks chubby and amiable, but he didn't expect to be so ruthless as soon as he made a move. Just when Zhuang Jihua thought that the matter was over, Wang Jingwei said another thing, which was also related to the relationship Li Zongren.

After Lu Rongting went into the wilderness, Guangxi formed a situation of confrontation between Li Huang and Shen Hongying, and then a big battle broke out for Guangxi, as a result, Shen Hongying was defeated, only to be spared, and then Li Huang tried his best to prevent Tang Jiyao from going east, surrounded Tang Jiyao's vanguard Long Yun in Nanning, and then defeated Tang Jiyu, another main force of the Tang army in Shapu, Liuzhou, Nanning's Long Yun was forced to retreat to Yunnan, so Li Huang unified the entire Guangxi, and the famous new Gui system in the history of the Republic of China was formed.

After the reunification of Guangxi, he was faced with how to deal with the relationship with the national political axe, and Li Huang generously expressed his willingness to accept the leadership of the national political axe, but he did not expect that the national political axe did not want to cause this trouble, and simply handed over Guangxi to them, and all the all-out efforts of the party, government, and army were handed over to them, as long as they were politically consistent. But Mr. Li and Mr. Huang seem reluctant to do so, and they want to maintain closer ties with Guangdong.

After Wang Jingwei's new secretary Zeng Zhongming explained the relationship between the front and back clearly, Zhuang Jihua was a little stupid, he didn't want to do this kind of good thing, did Wang Jingwei have something wrong with his brain.
