Chapter 848: After the Bloody War

Dawn is approaching, and the Kanbei position at night is red under the light of the raging war everywhere. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

The cold night breeze of early spring blew the smoke and smell of blood far away. The gunfire had stopped, corpses were strewn all over the field, and every inch of scorched earth and rock on the three heights seemed to be soaked in blood.

On the Long'eryu Heights, the two guards put the bloodied division commander Guan Lin on the last stone barrier, and under the guidance of the regimental commander under his command, they moved step by step to Cui Dalin, who was sitting on the ground with his head in his arms.

Guan Zhenglin, who was furious for a long time, personally charged with a gun, and was stunned twice by the Japanese grenadiers, but every time he woke up, he refused to retreat, and after hurriedly bandaging, he continued to command his soldiers to attack the fortifications without stopping, and finally took the most important high ground in northern Kanbei after the ninth charge.

After the victory, Guan Linzheng ordered the guards to help him up to the position, he wanted to see with his own eyes the remains of more than 3,000 soldiers who had fallen above and below the position, and see how many of the 627 death squads that had rushed to the front again and again were still left.

Cui Dalin held on to the hot ground, stood up with difficulty, looked at Guan Linzheng, the commander of the major general who was more seriously injured than himself, and tried his best to squeeze out a smile, but it was as ugly as crying.

"Brother Cui is still alive, fortunately! Of the six hundred and twenty-seven brothers in the death squad, there are not many survivors like Brother Cui, right? Guan Linzheng grinned.

Cui Dayong nodded unconsciously: "I just counted it, there are two hundred and fifteen left, and there are more than a dozen of them, I'm afraid I won't be able to carry a gun in this life......"

Guan Linzheng sighed: "Brother Cui, what are your plans after withdrawing?" ”

Cui Dayong was stunned for a moment, suddenly remembered something, and grinned: "Wait until the brothers who died in the war are buried, the reward will definitely be obtained, and the little brother will go to your treacherous and vicious director of the political department, drink his wine, and beat his mother again." ”

Guan Zhenglin laughed dumbly when he heard this, laughed a few times, and pulled the wound, turning into a painful moan, and the guards on the side hurriedly stepped forward to help him and asked him to withdraw from the position.

Guan Zhenglin nodded and no longer refused, and told Cui Dalin that the corpses and wounded soldiers of Brother Cui Dalin had basically been sent to Guannei, and the reserve of a brigade would soon come up to take over the defense, and they could withdraw with confidence.

Cui Dalin nodded, followed Guan Zhenglin and slowly descended the mountain, sighing as he walked: "During your Northern Expedition, I served in the Independent Brigade led by the young marshal of the Henan Theater, and fought a battle with Zhang Fakui's 11th Army at that time. ”

Guan Linzheng said with great emotion: "I am from Shaanxi, and nearly half of my 25th senior brothers are from Jiangbei provinces, and the other senior brothers are also from all over the world. Also, General Yang Jiuxiao's headquarters, which caused the Japanese army to be dizzy in western Liaoning a while ago, was originally the team of your Northeast Army, not only were they not frightened by the Japanese army, but they also fought from 918 to the present, all of them are well-known men, which shows that whether there is a kind of man has nothing to do with the region......

……

The sky was dark, and the Baoding camp headquarters was full of joy, and the generals were overjoyed that the Central Army had successfully collected the Guanbei position in Beikou and annihilated more than 8,000 enemies, but An Yi silently calculated in his heart the number of nearly 10,000 casualties of the 17th Army in this battle, and the victory at such a huge price did not make An Yi feel any joy, fortunately, in a short period of time, the Japanese army could not launch a large-scale ground offensive in Gubeikou, and Xu Tingyao, who was as careful as a hair, and the generals under his command were in command, An Yi did not need to worry about anything for the front line of Gubeikou.

Chiang Kai-shek's feeling was very different, and the position outside the Gubeikou Pass was lost in the hands of the Northeast Army less than 24 hours ago, so that several of his descendants suddenly launched a fierce counteroffensive was withdrawn in the blink of an eye, and the huge political influence and the stimulating effect on the armies in the North China battlefield were all pleasantly surprised, so Chiang Kai-shek, who was on the front line to command the overall situation, was more excited and proud than anyone else.

Chiang Kai-shek, who was in a happy mood and full of energy, made an exception to let the generals of various departments, who had been busy for a day and a night, have a good rest, leaving only some staff officers on duty, saying goodbye to the beaming generals, and taking An Yi, who was still reluctant to leave with the war report in his hand, to take a walk in the courtyard.

"What? Don't seem to be satisfied with the way you look? Chiang Kai-shek asked An Yi in a low voice.

An Yi, who was worried, raised his head: "Gubeikou is temporarily stable, but the Japanese offensive on the eastern front is not reduced, and it is estimated that more troops will be invested to increase the intensity of the offensive." There is also the Chahar line, the main force of the Japanese army on the north road has approached Duolun, Sun Dianying, who was afraid of being punished and led his troops to join Feng Yuxiang's anti-Japanese alliance army, did not see any movement, and the five armies under Feng Yuxiang's command did not see any action, and its main force was still gathered on the front line of Zhangjiakou to wait and see. ”

Chiang Kai-shek stopped, his face darkened and he was quite annoyed: "Don't expect Feng Yuzhang, this old fox doesn't see prey and doesn't scatter eagles, even so I can forgive him, but he actually secretly corresponded with the envoys of the Russian government, frequently discussed attaching himself to the so-called Comintern, in exchange for weapons and equipment and military support, and also wanted to set up a central government with the secret support of the Russians. ”

An Yi was taken aback: "This ...... It can't be a rumor, right? ”

"Rumors? He Feng Yuzhang met with the Russians during the day, and I could know what they were talking about at night, and it seemed that he was still unwilling to fail and wanted to make a comeback...... Don't talk about him, I will deal with this matter myself, it will not affect the current overall situation, and you don't have to think about it, and use your energy on the overall strategy and tactics. ”

Chiang Kai-shek paused, took the initiative to change the subject, and asked, "When will your five divisions arrive?" ”

An Yi replied: "Xia Jian's 39th Division has already arrived in Hankou, and it will reach Beiping within five days, and the other divisions will all be in place by the end of the month at the latest, but ...... I hope that there will be no chaos on the eastern front for which the Northeast Army is responsible. ”

Chiang Kai-shek looked at An Yi: "Are you still annoyed by Wang Yizhe's final decision?" It's not that I want to let go of this scum who collapsed without a fight, the main thing is that the interests of all parties need to be balanced...... This time cut off the heads of fifty-four generals of Tang Yulin's department, although the military discipline was serious, and the morale of the army and the public was shaken, but it also made the Northeast Army feel sad about the death of rabbits and foxes, especially Han Qing, he is difficult to be! Although he is now in the wilderness, the Northeast Army still regards him as the commander, and he is still reluctant to let his army fall apart after losing face, so from the overall situation, the punishment of Wang Yizhe's demotion and demotion is almost enough...... I hope you can see a little bit in this regard, after all, politics is different from the military, and you must not be temporary, and slowly you will realize my hard work. ”

"Yes, students understand."

An Yi understood in his mouth, but he was still stupid in his heart, Wang Yizhe still resolutely resisted for a period of time in the end, and it was just that he did not get the punishment he deserved, but Song Zheyuan actually drove his car, escorted by the officers and soldiers of a regiment, and personally sent Tang Yulin to the Japanese concession in Tianjin, which made An Yi's agents very anxious, but when it came to the overall situation of resistance against Japan, he did not dare to stop it, nor did he dare to shoot rashly.

An Yi was annoyed after hearing the report, and was about to give instructions to Hou Wuliang, ordering the Northern Bureau to meet with Tianjin Station to formulate a plan of action and carry out a secret assassination of Tang Yulin, but he did not expect that at the critical moment, Chiang Kai-shek and the young marshal Zhang Xueliang and the auxiliary marshal Zhang Zuoxiang arrived together to sincerely apologize for the collapse of the Northeast Army without a fight, and Song Ziwen also interceded on behalf of him, An Yi had no way to refute the face of these bosses, so he had to hand it over to He Yingqin's Ministry of Military Affairs to deal with it with hatred, and promised that the Fourth Department of the General Staff Headquarters would no longer care about such bird matters.

However, An Yi promised to agree, but he would definitely not let go of Tang Yulin, the culprit who caused thousands of casualties among the brothers in his headquarters, and An Yi still had a solution - through the Northern Martial Arts Gang, he issued a Jianghu chase and kill order, and offered a reward of two million oceans to buy Tang Yulin, the head of this coward!

The teachers and students talked about stopping, and after walking for twenty minutes, An Yi just wanted to say goodbye and rushed to the front line of Gubeikou to inspect, when Chiang Kai-shek pointed to the pavilion in the courtyard and said to sit down.

An Yi saw that the brothers and sisters in the attendant room had already placed refreshments in the pavilion, and immediately realized that the principal still had something to discuss, so he could only swallow back the words that were about to be exported, followed Chiang Kai-shek into the pavilion, and sat down one after another.

didn't finish half a cup of tea, Song Ziwen and Kong Xiangxi came side by side, An Yi was surprised, and hurriedly stood up to greet them, respectfully welcomed the two into the pavilion and sat down, seeing Chiang Kai-shek waving to the attendants not to disturb, he took the initiative to pick up the teapot and filled the teacup in front of the two.

Song Ziwen should have returned to Nanjing with the condolence group yesterday, and Kong Xiangxi had just returned from a three-month visit to Europe and the United States in his capacity as Minister of Industry of the Nationalist Government.

Everyone chatted a few words and got to the point.

An Yi listened quietly on the side, and as soon as Song Ziwen opened his mouth, he clearly told Chiang Kai-shek that the total tax revenue in the first half of this year would not reach one-third of that of the same period last year, and that the current tax sources of the central government were only Shanghai, Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Anhui, Jiangxi, Hunan, Hubei, and Henan. The whole of Shaanxi was divided into three parts, one was occupied by Yang Hucheng, the commander of the 17th Route Army entrenched in Xi'an, and the other was seven counties near Henan that belonged to the central government, and all the other counties and towns were all under the control of local warlords of all walks of life, large and small, who did not buy the accounts of the central government at all, and after the tax officials sent to collect taxes were slaughtered one after another, no one dared to go again.

Chiang Kai-shek was so angry that his face turned pale, but there was nothing he could do, Kong Xiangxi saw this, and hurriedly said comfort, but just said a few gentle words, and then complained:

Due to the protracted delay in the war in North China, the European and American countries have an ambiguous and ambiguous attitude towards the central government's industrial and commercial, trade cooperation, and loan plans, and this trip to Europe and the United States has not achieved substantial results in other aspects except for a series of agreements on industrial investment and technological exchanges; what is worse is that as of the end of last month, the domestic capital flowing to Europe and the United States, Hong Kong, Macao, and Nanyang regions due to the war panic has reached as much as 1.7 billion, and more than 4,000 enterprises have closed down in Shanghai and Jiangsu and Zhejiang alone, and the textile industry and foreign trade exports have been basically paralyzed. The import trade has shrunk exponentially, as many as more than 3 million workers have lost their jobs, and millions of victims from northern Jiangsu, northern Anhui, western Henan, and Shaanxi have been rolling south......

When An Yi heard this, his first reaction was that the central government would not repay the money to him within the agreed six-month period, and he wanted to joke with Song Ziwen to remind him not to forget to repay the money, but seeing Chiang Kai-shek's lips closed and his eyes were red and extremely painful, An Yi closed his mouth with interest, sighed slightly, and picked up the teapot, but if you take a closer look, the teacups in front of everyone are full......
