Chapter 528 has the right not to be an official in vain

An Yi did not leave again after returning to Yichang, patrolling everywhere during the day, discussing with representatives of surrounding counties and towns, implementing the preferential policy of tax exemption granted by the central government to western Hubei for one year, and returning to his headquarters at night, holding all-night military meetings to analyze the information delivered from various places and formulate plans.

Under the restraint of Sun Liangcheng and other generals, the various units of the Northwest Army, which lacked pay and food, gradually unified their thinking and understanding, and made up their minds to fight a big battle with the Central Army and the rebels such as Han Fuqu and Shi Yousan, so as to completely change the current unfavorable situation, the situation in Henan and Shaanxi, where the large army was gathered and the war clouds were dense, was unprecedentedly tense, all the checkpoints and roads were blocked by the Northwest Army, millions of displaced people in the northwest were blocked from escaping south, and there were fewer and fewer refugees entering western Hubei. Under the vigorous cleaning of the brothers of the gendarmerie regiment, it was neat and clean, and it had a new look.

Xiao Xinghua's family is lucky, her young mother is hardworking and simple, kind-hearted, not only can make a good pasta, a few home-cooked side dishes are also decent, plus Xiao Xinghua is pure and cute, and An Yi has a deep relationship, a family of three was left in the headquarters by An Yi to help the brothers in the service class cook for more than 60 generals.

Some time ago, An Yi accidentally found that Sister-in-law Ma was holding a broken newspaper and reading it carefully, and after careful questioning, he learned that Sister-in-law Ma's family lived next door to the private school in the village when she was a child, and she quietly eavesdropped on her husband's lectures every day when she was free, and she used branches to learn to write on the ground.

Originally, several Huotou Army brothers saw that the recovered sister-in-law Ma was getting more and more beautiful, and the evil fire in their hearts was about to move, but when they heard An Yi joking to ask Xiao Xinghua to call him father, they were immediately frightened to put away their crooked thoughts and become respectful, and they no longer dared to have the slightest thought, even if they couldn't help it, they would rather go to the kiln in the city to extinguish the fire, and they didn't dare to touch An Yi's strict military law.

By September, the situation in the whole of China had become more and more severe, and the Northeast Army had suffered heavy losses under the blows of the planes, artillery, and heavy troops of the Russian Army, and the furious Zhang Xueliang and his soldiers fought desperately, and organized more than 10,000 Belarusian officers and soldiers who had been driven out of the territory by the Russian Red Army in the past and are now distributed in the northeast region, and issued them with the best weapons to arm them, and launched a decisive counterattack by taking advantage of the bitter hatred of these old Russian troops against the Bolsheviks.

This trick really worked, and the armed White Russian army, with its familiarity with the Russian ** team, with the coordination of the Northeast Army, caused great casualties to the Russian army, forcing the arrogant polar bear to resume diplomatic negotiations, but the two sides fought and talked, and did not stop for a day.

After the Sichuan warlord civil war, Liu Xiang obtained a large supply of machine guns, mortars and ammunition from An Yi, his strength increased greatly, and within 20 days he successively recovered six county towns south of Chongqing, and Liu Wenhui, who had been defeated again and again, was not to be outdone, and did everything they could, secretly purchased heavy machine guns, Bayi mortars and a large number of long and short guns worth more than 2 million yuan from Xiangxi, and quickly controlled the decline, and the two sides entered a stalemate.

In response to this, the Central Committee of the Kuomintang loudly called for a cease-fire negotiation between the armies of all walks of life in central Sichuan, and sent special commissioners such as He Guoguang and Zeng Kuanqing to Sichuan for mediation, but there were no further effective measures and policies for the warring parties to stop the war.

However, relatively speaking, the most serious situation is the situation in the Central Plains. After Yan Xishan saw that Chiang Kai-shek eliminated the Gui faction, he immediately incorporated the Guangdong Army into the Central Army, and organized the Guangdong Army into six divisions from 58 to 63 under the Central Army.

Although Feng Yuxiang hated Yan Xishan's two-sided and three-knife falling into the well, but seeing that the goal of dispersing Jiang and Yan had been achieved, he got off the donkey several times down the slope and expressed his willingness to abandon his previous suspicions and join forces to oppose Jiang. The two discussed secretly, and finally agreed that Feng Yuxiang would still live in Jian'an Village temporarily, hide behind the scenes to leave room for maneuver, and the generals of the Northwest Army would take the lead and send a telegram to support Yan Xishan as the leader, and jointly discuss Jiang, and then the Jin Sui army would respond.

It's a pity that this secret plan did not escape Chiang Kai-shek's eyes all over the world, and even An Yi, who was in western Hubei, was able to guess the truth from the deployment of troops in various departments in the Central Plains.

Chiang Kai-shek pretended to be unknown and remained silent, while directing the encirclement and suppression of the Red Army in Hubei, Jiangxi, Fujian, Guangdong and other places, and on the other hand, frequently sending special envoys back and forth between Taiyuan, Beiping and Nanjing, continuing to divide the Northwest Army and contain Yan Xishan, while gaining time to secretly step up military preparations.

It was precisely in such a tense atmosphere that the first special military meeting of the Yichang camp was held, at which more than 30 generals, including Zhang Fakui, commander-in-chief of the Hunan-Hubei border bandits, Fan Shisheng, deputy commander-in-chief and commander of the Jingzhou Garrison Command, Zhang Hongluan, supervisor of the Xiangxi Pacification Office, Yin Jinan, commander of the Yichang Garrison Command and commander of the 16 th Division, Zhu Shigui, commander of the Xiangfan Garrison Command and commander of the 17 th Division, and Wu Shang, commander of the 52 nd Division of the Jiangling Garrison, gathered together.

Fan Shisheng is a thin body, extremely energetic senior veteran, but also a gentle personality to see the three steps of a cautious person, since the transfer of the department to Xiangfan, has been depressed, originally he thought that Xiangfan is Hubei and Henan business road, the land of fish and rice, but I don't know that the Gui Department Tao Xun has been occupied for two years has already scraped the ground, the wealth has been collected out, plus thousands of people from Henan and Shaanxi have poured in, there is not much bark left, not to mention food. Therefore, Fan Shisheng's life has been hard and hard, and before he settled down, he was transferred by Zhang Fakui to the front line of western Hubei to suppress the Communists, and he died and fled in the past two months, and only one brigade was left in the two brigades. Although Lao Jiang would pay his military salary on time every month, but this military salary was issued according to the 11,000 officers and soldiers of a division stipulated by the dispatch meeting, Fan Shisheng concealed the fact that nearly 18,000 officers and soldiers in his headquarters were weakened by disarmament when he was dispatched, and only reported 11,000 officers and soldiers, which made more than one-third of the brothers have nothing to eat, and originally wanted to scavenge a little in Xiangfan to supplement military expenses, but the people of Xiangfan are living more bitterly than his brothers, and they have no roots and no source, and they cannot get the support of the local people, where can they search?

Fortunately, after An Yi was promoted to the director of the Yichang camp, he vigorously helped and generously helped, and Fan Shisheng's life was better, but Rao was so, and he could only eat meat once in ten days, and the most important and most unsightly reason was: Eighty percent of the officers and soldiers under Fan Shisheng's command smoked opium, and more than half of the monthly military salary was used to buy opium tobacco paste, so that two meals a day were coarse tea and light rice, and there was no shadow of the meat. I'm afraid that the wrinkles on Fan Shisheng's forehead will be twice as many at this time.

Therefore, Fan Shisheng and his soldiers are still very grateful to An Yi, especially in the supply of weapons, ammunition and various materials, An Yi basically treated everyone equally, fair and just, withstood Zhang Fakui's pressure, and helped Fan Shisheng's department, which won the great favor of Fan Shisheng's soldiers, and Fan Shisheng has also established a friendship with An Yi since then, and as long as he has the opportunity, he will rebel with Zhang Fakui, who has destroyed half of his main force.

The first military meeting of the Yichang camp was held for two days in the noise, Zhang Fakui relied on the hard work of the revolutionary fathers, and his voice was very loud, and the deputy division commander Zhu Huiri and the chief of staff and brigade commander Huang Zhenqiu he brought were silent, the two were very familiar with An Yi as early as in Guangzhou, and they were both from Li Jishen's subordinates, and they both fought side by side with An Yi under Tingsi Bridge and Wuchang City, and now I see An Yi, who is the director of the camp, respectfully calling himself the eldest brother, and having wine and meat to eat and use three meals a day, they are embarrassed to argue with An Yi about anything.

The only people who supported Zhang Fakui's opinion were Wu Shang, commander of the 52nd Division, and Xiong Zhen, deputy commander of the 52nd Division, and these two generals of the Hunan Army, who had originally separated from Tang Shengzhi's headquarters, now neither bought Tang Shengzhi's account nor wanted to belong to He Jian, so they were transferred to northern Hunan by He Jian, chairman of Hunan Province, who was out of sight and out of mind, to participate in the suppression of bandits. When Wu Shang and Xiong Zhen were in the glory under Tang Shengzhi, An Yi was just a small engineer company commander, and now the two of them were commanded by An Yi, a small character, and they were very uncomfortable, so they echoed Zhang Fakui's opinion, and asked An Yi for more than the military salary and weapons and ammunition approved by the central government, and ordered his troops to retreat fifty miles from the battlefield in western Hubei and stationed during the meeting. However, when the two of them retreated, they did not notify Fan Shisheng, causing one of Fan Shisheng's outposts to be in a prominent position and lose their left and right strategies, and they were once again beaten by He Long's Red Army, and less than half of the more than 1,300 people fled back, so angry that Fan Shisheng and Deputy Division Commander Chen Taiyun scolded their mothers vigorously at the meeting.

An Yi's performance was very surprising, he always smiled, listened carefully to the opinions of all parties, and did not have any comments, explanations, refutations and rejections, so that Zhang Fakui, Wu Shang and Yin Jinan, Zhu Shigui, and Fan Shisheng argued for a day and a night, and did not express any opinions, so angry that Zhang Fakui, the commander-in-chief of the bandits, slapped the table several times.

originally thought that the meeting would be deadlocked, but who knew that after the meeting reopened the next morning, Zhang Fakui read the request report that had been sorted out overnight, and suddenly felt that the atmosphere was not right, and looked around the venue only to find that Wu Shang and Xiong Zhen, who were originally making trouble behind him, were sitting there drinking tea with a smile and no longer talking.

Zhang Fakui secretly screamed badly, thinking about what benefits these two had from An Yi, but An Yi spoke: "General Zhang, can you make a copy of the compilation list of your department?" The younger brother sent a telegram to the Central Military Commission to make efforts for the officers and men of the Fourth Division to replenish weapons and ammunition as soon as possible, and to pay military salaries in accordance with the approval of the Central Military Commission. ”

Zhang Fakui scolded secretly in his heart, but he didn't dare to be too presumptuous: "Director An, you don't know that our department only recruited more than 8,000 surrendered Gui troops in order to suppress the communist bandits in western Hubei, but the Military Commission approved the number of officers and men of our division to pay military salaries according to the standards of the deployment meeting, which is obviously to squeeze out dissidents and weaken the strength of our department.

As the supreme commander of the camp, doesn't Director An know the specific situation of each department? As far as I know, the number of officers and men of the 16 th Division of Brother Ji Nan has reached 32,000, which is 10,000 more than that of our unit, and although most of them have been transferred to the garrison units of western Hubei Province, everyone knows what the real situation is, and even if Brother Ji Nan hides from the world and makes people have nothing to say, how can the more than 16,000 officers and men of Brother Zhu's 17 th Division receive the full amount of funding from the Central Military Commission? With such a differential treatment, aren't you afraid of the chills of the officers and men of the various departments who are fighting bloody battles on the front line? ”

An Yi waved his hand to stop Zhu Shigui, who was red-faced and about to quarrel again, turned to Zhang Fakui and smiled slightly, and explained kindly: "General Zhang, you may have misunderstood, although General Zhu's department is more than 16,800 soldiers, more than 5,800 of them have been transferred to the Xiangfan Garrison Command, and they have also been officially confirmed by the Central Military Commission three days ago. As a matter of fact, the military salaries paid by the Central Military Commission to the 17 th Division are also treated equally, and they are all paid in accordance with the number of 11,000 officers and men, just like all divisions.

The younger brother suggested that General Zhang immediately transfer the supernumerary officers under his command to the Enshi garrison force, and make a register and submit it to our Yichang camp, and in the future, this part of the military expenditure will be paid by the camp from the local revenue, which is as fair and just as other places, won't it solve the problem? There is no need for us to dwell too much on these subsections, let's discuss how to deal with the current increasingly severe situation in Hunan, Hubei and Yuhu. ”

"Hey! Why didn't you say it sooner? Brother An, you ...... You said I had done it a long time ago, isn't it just a list? You've been arguing here for two days, and you've delayed a lot of business......"

Zhang Fakui couldn't cry or laugh, sat down angrily, picked up the teacup and glanced at An Yi, seeing Wu Shang on the left hand side looking satisfied, he immediately understood that Wu Shang had already received the benefits promised by An Yi.

Zhang Fakui's deputy division commander Zhu Huiri and chief of staff and brigade commander Huang Zhenqiu had very different ideas, the two looked at each other, shook their heads helplessly and smiled bitterly, and successively understood that this was An Yi's dismount, the purpose was to let the veteran Zhang Fakui understand his current situation, understand that the right to finance and supply materials are in An Yi's hands, don't rely on the old man to sell the old and not give him face, otherwise he has a way to deal with you.
