Chapter 19: Zhang Xueliang's reaction
"Caoni's mother, told Lao Tzu to sacrifice his life, but he ran away. Director Chen, did you immediately give the order to dismantle the equipment, or did I give the order to blow up the arsenal with all my might? I don't have time to spend with you! Are you still waiting for the young marshal, the young marshal has already given up on Mukden and the Northeast! Jiang Li scolded, if he was allowed to arrest Zhang Haipeng, he would have to take his life. I don't know what's going on on Wang Tiehan's side, hasn't he already sent troops to reinforce Fengtian City, how can the city still be broken? Did something go wrong?
"Xiaohai, notify the factory management personnel and disassemble the factory equipment immediately, Battalion Commander Jiang, you can lend me a few soldiers!" Chen Jingguo gritted his teeth and suddenly made up his mind, in fact, as early as a few months ago, someone persuaded Zhang Xueliang to move the arsenal to Guannai, and Chen Jingguo was also one of them, but it was shelved by Zhang Xueliang at that time.
"I'll give you a platoon, and then help you collect vehicles and give priority to transporting equipment, as for the munitions first, the munitions can be rebuilt if they are gone, and the equipment is gone, and the old foundation of the arsenal will completely collapse!"
Jiang Li said in a solemn tone, if the arsenal is too late to withdraw, the Japanese army will swarm in, and Jiang Li will still blow up these equipment. Historically, Japan relied on the Mukden Arsenal to equip the Kwantung Army, the most elite of the Japanese army, if it were not for the Soviet Union to cripple the Kwantung Army, relying solely on the strength of the Kuomintang * Communist Party after the resistance against Japan, if it wanted to recover the Northeast, it would take at least several years, or even more than ten years of efforts, to drive away the deep-rooted Japanese army.
In order to ensure the smooth dismantling of the arsenal, Jiang Li specially gave Chen Jingguo a platoon to beat his subordinates to Director Chen, which not only had the intention of supervision, but also arrested and even shot those who opposed the order!
"Brother Jiang, you take a battalion to be stationed in the arsenal temporarily, anyone who wants to give the arsenal to the Japanese, kill it first, as for the Japanese army, there must be no me to say anything to you, Fengtian City has been broken, the Japanese army has officially started a war, and the people above are in chaos, but we can't be this sinner who abandoned the three eastern provinces!" Jiang Li turned to Jiang Wenhao again and said, apart from him, Jiang Wenhao can now sit in the arsenal.
"What about you, Brother Jiang?" Jiang Wenhao nodded and said.
"I took a battalion of soldiers to the provincial capital of Fengtian to see what was going on, it stands to reason that the 29th Infantry Wing of the Japanese Army, with the reinforcement of Commander Wang, would not be able to break through Fengtian City, unless Zhang Haipeng abandoned the city before Commander Wang's reinforcements arrived. He definitely won't flee Jinzhou with a bare pole, I'll intercept this son of a son of a girl on the way back to Taonan! If you encounter the irresistible Japanese army, Brother Jiang, how to deal with the arsenal, do you know? Jiang Li looked at Jiang Wenhao with burning eyes.
"Blow up the machinery, not a single mother machine can fall into the hands of the Japanese army." Jiang Wenhao smiled.
"Another point, no one is allowed to leave the arsenal now, when the old marshal first built the arsenal, he filled a lot of soldiers to the arsenal, and you organized these people to help defend the Japanese army together. Just pick up the things in the arsenal and take them, and pull out the cannons, and if you don't use them now, you won't have a chance in the future. Jiang Li added.
"Hehe, okay, damn it, look at the guys in the artillery regiment with a sassy face, Lao Tzu now has one cannon per person, and one horse is used in the back! After being a soldier for so long, it is the first time to be so generous, that is, Chairman Jiang's guard brigade, and the German armorers are not as well equipped as Lao Tzu! Jiang Wenhao said defeatedly.
"The Northeast is dying, no matter what the orders from above, there will always be people who will see our behavior in their eyes, right and wrong, and have their own justice. Even if the sky is about to fall now, there are still us, the soldiers, to carry it and return the fallen zenith. Brother Jiang, Director Chen, if I can't come back here, the arsenal will ask you! After Jiang Li heard Jiang Wenhao's words, he first smiled, then slammed his legs together, and solemnly gave a military salute to Jiang Wenhao and Chen Jingguo.
Horn, the military boots knocked together to make a crisp sound, Jiang Wenhao solemnly replied.
"There are a lot of horses in the arsenal, you can travel, Xiaohai, you take Battalion Commander Jiang to fetch horses, and Battalion Commander Jiang and I will organize the dismantling of machinery." Chen Jingguo said astringently.
"The brothers of the 973 battalion, all go with Lao Tzu!" Jiang Li nodded to Chen Jingguo, and as soon as the roar came out, the person had already strode out of the house, and Wang Xiaohai followed closely.
Although the railroad could lead directly to the arsenal, many of the raw materials could not be transported to and from the Japanese-controlled railway, and there were many pack horses and other horses in the arsenal, and there were three or four thousand of them. Jiang Li directly asked for a thousand horses, and the soldiers of the 973 battalion rode one person and two horses, and hurried to the direction of Fengtian to Taonan, no matter what, he also wanted to intercept Zhang Haipeng, a big traitor in history.

Peiping
"Young marshal, when you finally come out, the situation on Fengtian's side has changed again, a big change!" Sheng Cheng's box was originally next to Zhang Xueliang, after receiving a telegram from Tan Hai before, Sheng Cheng knocked on the door of Zhang Xueliang's box, but did not open the door, Sheng Cheng also knew Zhang Xueliang's attitude, and did not dare to come forward to ask for fun. Until the end of the play. Sheng Chengcai once again stopped Zhang Xueliang at the door with a telegram.
"Young marshal, Fengtian sent an urgent telegram, the Beidaying camp has been breached, the Japanese army has entered Fengtian City, and at the same time, Changchun, Jilin and other places have also been attacked by the Japanese army at the same time. At present, in the territory of Mukden, Andong, Phoenix and other places have fallen one after another. If Sheng Cheng's telegram was shown to Zhang Zuolin, it would be tantamount to a thunderbolt from the sky, Zhang Xueliang took the telegram in his hand, his face was pale, and he scolded, "The Japanese are too deceitful!" ”
After saying this, Zhang Xueliang strode away, and no one dared to block his way.
"Marshal, how to reply from Fengtian now, the governor of Tibet has repeatedly sent telegrams, asking the young marshal to return to Fengtian and recapture Fengtian from the Japanese army." After Zhang Xueliang returned home, Tan Hai asked again.
"Didn't you say that, and how many more times do you have to say it again? Resistance is not allowed, the central government is already dealing with this matter, and the League of Nations is also watching the Japanese invasion of the Northeast, and will deal with it fairly, and then send a telegram to the Nanjing side to tell the chairman about the Northeast matter! Zhang Xueliang said very angrily. Recently, the troubles are really one after another, none of them can make people feel better when they listen to it, Zhang Xueliang covered his head for a while, the tragedy of the First World War on the Middle Road made him remember it vividly, the strength of the great powers is not something that he, the emperor of the soil, can provoke, and he will lose the war, and when the time comes, Japan will take the land in the northeast to ask the Republic of China for land reparations, what can he do?
Tan Hai was stunned, no longer dared to say anything, and immediately went to shoot the telegram again, leaving in a hurry in the background, but sighing in his heart, the Japanese army is no different from going to war, but the young marshal in front of him was still staying in the theater when the war started, and he had such an attitude when he left the theater, and if he went on like this, he was afraid that the Northeast would really be lost.
