Chapter 522: Forcing Chiang to resist Japan

Solved the two regiments of Pang Bingxun's 40th Army in one night, this result still made Han Yunhua very satisfied, although he didn't look down on Pang Bingxun's two regiments in his heart, but Zhang Yongfu's participation in the big bandit was an unexpected surprise in this sortie.

Originally, Wang Xiaohu and others wanted to continue to attack, and make persistent efforts to kill all the remaining dozen regiments of Pang Bingxun in one go, anyway, as long as the military headquarters of the 40th Army and the remaining two divisions were killed, the entire 40th Army would be leaderless, and it would be inevitable that they would be broken in the end, even if the 97th Army was next to the 40th Army, the outcome would be the same.

However, Han Yunhua knew that although the loss of an infantry regiment and a cavalry regiment Pang Bingxun was also very painful, it was still within his bearable range, and any more would turn into a deep hatred, and the second Huangqiao incident would not only not play a deterrent role, but would also make the already tense relations between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party even more tense and cold, and would only cheapen the Japanese.

Therefore, after repeated consideration, Han Yunhua still decided to temporarily let the troops return to Nanle County first, and then use these two regiments to attack the national government politically, forcing them not to dare to act like the New Fourth Army.

On September 3, 1941, an uprising telegram from northern China shocked the whole country, Zhang Yongfu, deputy head of the 257th Regiment of the 106th Division of the 40th Army of the National Revolutionary Army, and Feng Wu, head of the Independent Regiment of the 14th Cavalry Brigade, sent a report to the whole country. The vanguard army of the anti-Japanese advance will soon advance to the northeast through the defense area of Han Yunhua's headquarters of the Inner Mongolia Military Region.

The lethality of this telegram was enormous, and as soon as this telegram came out, the whole country was in an uproar, especially the national government, which was immediately stunned. After confirming the authenticity of the telegram, Chiang Kai-shek immediately called off all military operations against the New Fourth Army and the Eighth Route Army, and ordered Pang Bingxun to reduce the impact of the matter at all costs

But Pang Bingxun knows the whole story of this matter better than anyone else, how can it be said that Zhang Yongfu betrayed him and the 40th Army, after all, Zhang Yongfu's mind is dedicated to fighting devils, because this has already had several conflicts with him, the army commander, Zhang Yongfu led his troops to break away from the 40th Army, which is expected, otherwise he would not have put Liu Zhiyuan, the protégé of Chairman Jiang, into the 257th Regiment. However, Feng Wu betrayed him a little undeserved, Feng Wu and him are also related to him, he can be regarded as a celebrity in the entire 40th Army, he has face and face, and he can't do this kind of thing with Zhang Yongfu at all.

In addition, Feng Wu's personality Pang Bingxun also knows that this person's mind is very clever and delicate, far more open than ordinary officers, and his vision is very good, and he is not the kind of rat-eyed person at all. There are only two possibilities for him to do this, one is that he has died in battle, and it was the enemy who issued this anti-Japanese telegram in his name, and the other possibility is that Feng Wu is not dead, but he has lost his freedom, and he has become a prisoner of others and has been coerced to do so.

In order to confirm his guess, Pang Bingxun specially sent a reconnaissance team to the place where the 257th Regiment and the Cavalry Regiment had been stationed to conduct on-the-spot reconnaissance. But what is strange is that the local people all said in unison that they did not hear any sound that night, let alone the sound of gunfire, which made Pang Bingxun very disappointed.

But no matter what the reason is, Pang Bingxun still decided to try his best to make Zhang Yongfu and Feng Wu "change their minds", only in this way can they reverse the image of the government in front of public opinion and minimize the losses.

However, as the telegrams continued to be sent, Pang Bingxun found that no matter how generous the conditions offered by the 40th Army, Zhang Yongfu and Feng Wu were indifferent and did not react at all. On the contrary, he demanded that the government immediately stop the friction with the **, and demanded that anti-Japanese telegrams continue to be sent, but in desperation, the Nationalist Government had no choice but to declare the 257th Regiment and the Cavalry Regiment as the rebel army of the government on September 6, and the Nationalist Government refused to recognize the legitimacy of the anti-Japanese advance vanguard.

But no matter what was done, the reputation of the Kuomintang was once again greatly damaged internationally, and the US imperialists behind the Kuomintang also saw that they really should not oppose each other at this time, so Roosevelt immediately telegraphed Chiang Kai-shek, demanding that he immediately stop all hostile activities with the Kuomintang, otherwise the United States would stop funding and all loans to the Kuomintang.

Chongqing. Chiang Mansion.

"Pop" a fine porcelain teacup, and the jade is shattered.

"Niang Xipi, ** is unreliable, the Americans are unreliable, these people are unreliable, but some people are about to be bewitched and ignore the danger of the country, what a bastard has come home." Chiang Kai-shek scolded angrily.

He Yingqin got up and comforted: "President, don't be angry, I don't think this matter is right, there must be something strange in it." I don't know much about Zhang Yongfu, but I still have a little image of Feng Wu. Feng Wu, formerly known as Feng Yongxiang, is a native of Chao County, Anhui Province. The 7th Cavalry Section of the Whampoa Military Academy, participated in the Battle of Nanjing, the Battle of Taierzhuang, the Battle of Xuzhou, and the Battle of Taiyuan, and was transferred to the 40th Army in 39 years and served as the colonel of the 14th Cavalry Brigade. Although this person is a little related to Pang Bingxun, he is still very loyal to the party-state, and Feng Wu's wife and children are still in his hometown, he cannot and dare not betray the party-state, not to mention that Feng Wu and this Zhang Yongfu have always been at odds, and it is impossible for the two of them to get together no matter how they talk, unless someone reconciles them. ”

"Niang Xipi, have you found out, who is making waves from it?" Chiang Kai-shek said angrily.

"Do you still need to check this, it must be **, and there are still many doubts about this matter, such as where is Liu Zhiyuan, the commander of the 257th regiment, and at the same time there are several battalion and regiment-level officers of the two regiments, these people have quietly disappeared, what does this mean, it means that he is not This regiment must have mutinied, but the intelligence sent back by our intelligence officers said that the two regiments are now fully organized, with sufficient personnel, and their weapons and equipment have become much better than before, and it seems that they should be courteous and supported." Xiao Zhuge Bai Chongxi also analyzed.

"Then what should we do, now that the situation has reached this point, it is definitely not possible to fight, the United States has already spoken, as long as we start fighting with **, they will cut off all weapons and equipment and financial assistance. What is the government like now, I think you all know it in your hearts, if you die without the support of the Americans, Zhen Haifu may not be able to pay a salary a long time ago, so we can't afford to offend the Americans. But we must not let ** get better, you all talk about what we should do now. Chiang Kai-shek said helplessly.

"Hey, the national strength is limited and restricted everywhere, although the current national disaster salary is only half of the previous one, but this has become the last salary to sustain life, if even this pitiful salary is stopped, I am afraid that the party-state is really dangerous." Chen Cheng said worriedly.

He Yingqin, Minister of Military Affairs and Political Affairs, said: "You can't fight if you fight, you will fight before, but now I'm afraid that you will be beaten as soon as you hit it." However, if the New Fourth Army is sent back to Jiangbei in this way, I am afraid that the face of our party-state will not be saved. So what I mean is that we will not fight or make peace, and force the New Fourth Army to come to us for peace talks. ”

"No, now ** is very fierce over there, if we really surround the New Fourth Army, it will inevitably be shot at that time, once the gun goes off, the consequences are unimaginable, now the little devil is looking at us silently, it is obvious that he intends to take advantage of the fisherman, we fight to the death with **, and only the little devil will benefit." Chen Cheng said.
