Chapter 1156 The general scolded Fang Yu angrily

The girl who followed Wang Chengjun's side has eyebrows like daisies, eyes like water, a soft nose and soft lips, skin like clotted white jade, and a beautiful and refined face. www.biquge.info She was wearing a red tunic dress with ruffles at the cuffs, which looked cool and charming.

Among the women An Yi knows, this woman's appearance can be called the first. Previously, An Yi had always thought that there were only individual differences between women at the level of beauty to the level of Feng Jieyun and Ou Chuer, but on the whole, the impression should be similar, but this girl broke An Yi's common sense and made people sigh that women can be beautiful to this extent.

Facing An Yi's surprised gaze, Wang Chengjun introduced with a smile:

"General An, this is Miss Zhou Ziwei, the niece of Mr. Wu Ziyu. Ms. Ziwei is also the niece of Ms. Lu Bicheng and is currently studying at Peking Women's Normal University. ”

An Yi was slightly stunned, Wu Ziyu is the direct veteran Wu Peifu, since the Northern Expedition Wu Peifu has escaped in Fengjie, Dazu, Daxian, Chengdu and other places in Sichuan, and left Chengdu in October 32 and settled in the first assorted garden. Last year and this year, *** activities have become increasingly rampant, in order to achieve the goal of *** China, to engage in "North China autonomy", I want to ask Wu Peifu to come forward as a puppet. Wu Peifu resolutely refused, and his national integrity made people admire.

As for Lu Bicheng, the origin is also quite extraordinary, more than ten years ago, in the Chinese literary circle, the female world and even the entire social circle, there was a big landscape of "the silk curtain alone embraces people and competes for envy, and Lu Bicheng is pushed everywhere". At the age of twelve, Lu Bicheng's attainments in poetry, calligraphy and painting had reached a very high level, and at the age of eighteen, he became a trainee editor of Ta Kung Pao, making a name for himself in the literary world. At the age of twenty, Lu Bicheng became the principal of the Beiyang Women's Normal School, and stayed for seven or eight years. She combines China's traditional virtues with Western thoughts, and combines China's traditional learning with Western natural science knowledge, making Beiyang Women's Normal School one of the birthplaces of China's modern women's civilization.

In 1918, Lü Bicheng went to the United States to study literature and fine arts at Columbia University, and also served as a special correspondent for the Shanghai Times, sending back to China what she saw in the United States, so that Chinese could see the world with her. Four years later, he returned to China, and in 1923, Lu Bicheng went abroad again alone, roaming Europe and the United States, this time for a longer time, up to 7 years. She wrote her observations as "European and American Odyssey", which was serialized in *** "Shuntian Times" and Shanghai "Half Moon" magazine.

Zhou Ziwei actually has a relationship with these two prominent figures, which can't help but impress An Yi. But now this delicate beautiful girl actually came with Wang Chengjun, thinking about Zhou Ziwei's family background, and then looking at the current purge of a certain party, as well as the subsequent rectification movement, An Yi couldn't help but pinch a cold sweat for this Zhou Ziwei.

Zhou Ziwei saw An Yi's interested gaze, and her brows furrowed:

"An is a Manchu changed from a Chinese surname, and the earliest Chinese character surname used by the Manchus had this surname in the Bohai Kingdom. The old Manchu surnames that were changed to An's surname include: Anjia, Erlehe, Nala, and Aldan, who joined the Manchus, etc., so General An's ancestors were Manchus? People say that it's better to be famous than to meet, but now I think some people are exaggerating. ”

Shen Fengdao, who was following An Yi, became sharp, compared to Chinese studies, Shen Fengdao, who had been taught by a good teacher, was not inferior, he glanced at Zhou Ziwei, and replied angrily:

"The ancient Yellow Emperor had a son named Changyi, Changyi's eldest son was called Zhuan, who inherited the throne, and the second son was called An, who was sealed in Xirong, and then the country was founded and rested, and his descendants took An as their surname. By the time of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, An Xi began to send envoys to Chang'an, and China had contacts with him. When the king of Anxi passed on the throne to the crown prince Anqing, he did not want to be a king, but wanted to be a monk, so he became a monk, in the Eastern Han Dynasty Emperor Huan Jianhe two years, returned to Luoyang, Henan, China, to promote Buddhism, and then settled down, his descendants will be passed on the surname An from generation to generation. The first person surnamed An to get ahead in history was An Tong, a native of Liaodong. He was in Cao Wei, known for his talent to help the world, and once did his left assistant in Cao Wei. His son An Jie was also a celebrity at the time, and once used the words of 'seeking death to die in battle, but you can sit and be trapped', and broke the thief army that came to attack, and was named the Duke of Xiping by the emperor, and glorified his ancestors. It can be seen that the surname An was originally a surname inherited by our Han people since ancient times, so how did it come from the Manchu Qing Dynasty? ”

An Yi disdained to do such a tongue article, and smiled: "As long as you sincerely resist Japan and don't want to be a thief, you are a member of my Chinese nation, even if I am a Manchurian, what does it matter?" I think the reason why the girl is prejudiced against me is probably related to the fact that I stared at you a few times, the so-called beautiful and delicious, even the ancient rotten Confucians couldn't turn a blind eye to beauty, not to mention that I am a man with normal body senses? The girl is fresh and lovely, and it is human nature for me to take a few more looks. By the way, I don't know what the two of you are here this time? ”

Zhou Ziwei's complexion was slightly pale, looked at An Yi, and said with some anger:

"General An, as far as I know, in the four years from 1922 to 1925, there were three large-scale disarmaments. Among them, in the third disarmament in 1925, the thirteenth, fifteenth, seventeenth, and eighteenth divisions were abolished, and from then on, the country plus Korea, the Ryukyus, Taiwan and other colonies, and then counting the Kwantung Army in northeast China, the garrison army in North China and other standing forces, the total is only 17 divisions and regiments, a total of more than 300,000 people. On the other hand, there are more than 200,000 troops in the 17th Army, the 24th Army, and the 26th Army, which are comparable to the strength of the Japanese army, as well as the 102nd, 103rd, 136th, and 137th Divisions of the Second Route Army under the command of the general, as well as the 13th and 14th Divisions of the new formation in Qianxi, plus the 49th Army in Xiangxi, and the 58th Army in Yunnan, and the total number of troops capable of fighting the Japanese has exceeded 500,000.

"With such a large number of troops, but sitting back and watching the Japanese army encroach on our territory step by step, may I ask the general, is this patriotic or ***?"

An Yi was stunned for a moment and turned to Wang Chengjun: "I don't know if this is Miss Zhou's idea, or Mr. Wang's opinion, or both?" ”

Wang Chengjun had a righteous face: "This is a question shared by my Chinese sons and daughters. In this case, the Japanese invaders are pressing forward step by step, and after annexing the three eastern provinces, they occupied Rehe, Suiyuan, and Chahar, and the eastern Hebei region also fell into the hands of the *** regime.

"General, if I were you, I would take advantage of the morale of the whole people after this military exercise, and quickly send troops north to expel the Japanese invaders, if you still let the Japanese invaders run rampant like this, you really don't deserve the title of patriotic general!"

An Yi laughed angrily, stared at Wang Chengjun's eyes for a long time, and suddenly asked: "Brother Wang, do you know that the military service law was promulgated as early as twenty-seven years old, stipulating that any *** man has the obligation to serve in the military from the age of seventeen to forty. In general, their military service is divided into five types, active duty, reserve, reserve, supplementary military service and national service. Among them, active duty, reserve service, and reserve service are collectively referred to as standing duty, and after completing various training in two years of concentrated active duty, they will be transferred to reserve and reserve service. At present, there are about 13 million people, and more than 10 million young and middle-aged people have been trained in military service, and they can arm millions of troops at any time if the situation requires it. ”

Wang Chengjun was stunned for a moment, and then said: "It is precisely because *** has such war potential that we should seize the opportunity to drive the Japanese out of China in one fell swoop." At present, there are less than 150,000 Japanese troops in Northeast China and North China, and it will take at least three months to more than half a year to arm 17 more divisions and regiments to form a combat force, which is enough time for us to occupy an advantage in the local battlefield! Since the general keeps saying that he is dedicated to the country, I think that for the sake of the country and the nation, the general should not hesitate to make appropriate sacrifices, right? ”

An Yi smiled faintly: "Sacrifice? Why should I be sacrificed? If I and my soldiers sacrificed in exchange for the complete expulsion of the Japanese from China, I could have sacrificed, but what if my sacrifice was in vain? That's right, even after the continuous increase in troops, the total number of Japanese troops in China is less than 200,000, but I don't know if Brother Wang has considered the Korean army and the puppet Manchurian and Mongolian armies supported by ***? Now there are nearly 80,000 puppet troops in North Korea, and there are about 90,000 people after the reorganization of the puppet Manchu army, and the requirements for weapons and training are very high, plus more than 30,000 puppet Mongolian troops, adding up to more than 200,000, and these more than 200,000 troops are completely established in accordance with the level of the first army, and the combat effectiveness is definitely not under the departments of our Central Army. In this way, there are 400,000 troops in North China and Northeast China.

"In addition, there are about 40,000 or 50,000 garrisons stationed in North Korea and Northeast China, and if necessary, more than 100,000 overseas Chinese who have received military training can be urgently recruited from among the overseas Chinese, and roughly calculated, this is another 200,000 troops. The most critical point is that the Japanese army works together and moves in unison, and once the order is issued, it will go all out, and if necessary, it will not hesitate to 'break jade' and desperately serve the country, so it can often burst out with combat effectiveness that exceeds its own strength several times.

"What about us? In the whole of North China, in addition to our 17th Army, which has a combat strength similar to that of the Japanese invaders, although the 40th Army and the 53rd Army have the determination and courage to resist Japan, their strength is far inferior to that of their opponents, and as far as I know, the Jin Sui Army and the 29th Army are secretly negotiating with the *** people, and may conclude some mutually beneficial treaties that are not known to outsiders, and no one dares to guarantee that they will not give us a sharp blow from behind after our troops go north. and General Fu Zuoyi of Suiyuan, under the pressure of the Japanese army and the puppet Mongolian army, he seemed very hesitant and did not dare to fight back, what was he afraid of? Aren't you worried that if a war breaks out, the fraternal troops will not help, and logistics and material supplies will not be guaranteed? With our 17th Army stationed in Baoding for a day, Fu Zuoyi's department has no worries, if our army goes north to fight, I am afraid that General Fu will have to consider retreating first. is so detached from morality, what should I use to fight, and let the elite soldiers of a hundred battles who have worked hard for many years fill it with their lives? Ignorant! Absurd! Amusing! ”

Wang Chengjun's face turned red, but he didn't know how to refute it for a while. On the contrary, Zhou Ziwei came prepared and talked eloquently: "General An, you have ignored a premise, the premise of the war we are talking about is that the 24th Army, the 26th Army, the 2nd Route Army of your Ministry and the 49th Army of Xiangxi and the 58th Army of Yunnan will carry out the Northern Expedition together. I believe that even without the cooperation of other armies, your troops can fight and drive the Japanese out of North China! ”

An Yi laughed: "Little girl, don't read a few memoirs written by the elders in the family and think that you know everything, fighting a war is not such a simple thing." ”

Seeing Zhou Zi's slightly pretty face flushed, and her eyes were almost about to burst into flames, An Yi waved his hand:

"Okay, let's go ahead and analyze it. I won't mention the logistical supply problem of so many troops gathering in North China, but let's just talk about the response of the Japanese invaders! At present, due to the repeated retreats of the 29th Army, *** firmly controls the passes on the first line of the Great Wall, and many places have been built by the Japanese army after the construction of strong fortifications facing North China, which has become a natural danger that is easy to defend and difficult to attack. Let's talk about the Japanese army in the Pingjin area, Beiping is far away from the sea, and our side can rely on the numerical advantage to drive the Japanese army out of Beiping in one fell swoop, and even rush to the front line of Shanhaiguan, but Tianjin, as the largest port city in the north, is close to the sea, and the Japanese naval artillery can give full play to its greatest advantage. The navy is the third largest in the world, with five aircraft carriers such as Fengxiang, Akagi, Ryuchamp, Amagi, and Kaga, and Fuso, Kongo, Haruna, Kirishima, Hiei, Yamashiro, Nagato, and Mutsu battleships, in addition to hundreds of large and small ships.

"You may say, then bypass Tianjin and continue to march north, okay, I will try to deduce, when we recover the territory of Suiyuan, Chahar, Rehe, eastern Hebei, and northern Hebei city by city, the enemy only needs to be a battalion, relying on various passes, as well as the fortresses near the sea to resist, and when it enters winter, our entire offensive will come to a standstill because of the difficulty of supply. At this time, the Japanese army suddenly sent a part of the troops from Northeast China, Korea, Taiwan, and even the mainland to land in Tianjin, cutting off the supply route of our army going north in one fell swoop, and then our hundreds of thousands of troops will fall into the embarrassing situation of being attacked by the enemy on their backs and running out of ammunition and food. Even because we took the initiative to start the war, they could have landed in Shanghai in a righteous and bright way, attacked Nanjing from the front line in East China, and forced our government to make a choice. Think about it, what will happen to me and my army? ”

Wang Chengjun and Zhou Ziwei both fell into thought, and after a long time, they shook their heads and sighed in disappointment. Zhou Ziwei was unwilling to admit defeat, and argued with herself:

"Now the Anjia Army has a strong air force and armored forces, especially the Air Force, it is said that the Southwest Air Force has excellent fighter performance, far beyond the first air force, our side only needs to maintain air superiority in the early stage of the war, and then send elite soldiers to ensure the communication line, then our army can be invincible. Moreover, hundreds of thousands of troops are not all invested in the front line of North China, we can fortify along the railway, step by step resistance, if we land in Shanghai, we can also divide the southeast and resist the enemy along the railway. ”

An Yi smiled dumbly, couldn't help but reach out and patted Zhou Ziwei's shoulder: "Little girl, you are really too stupid and naïve, and you haven't figured out many situations." It is true that at present, in North China, China's Southwest Air Force does have a qualitative advantage, but it does not have much chance of winning against the elite air force or navy of the world. After all, our Southwest Air Force only has more than 200 fighters, but the Navy and Army combined, there are more than 1,000. With a complete industrial system, we can independently develop aircraft engines and related components, and when a thousand fighters are consumed, they can build another thousand or even two thousand, and we only need to consume them, and it will be difficult to replenish them. It is an industrial power, good at learning and imitating, when we are fighting with the Japanese invaders, they can easily get our crashed fighters from the battlefield, or it will not be long before the quality advantage of our air force will be gone!

"At present, European and American countries have adopted an attitude of appeasement and compromise on the step-by-step expansion of the United States in China, if the Sino-Japanese war is initiated by us, countries will definitely isolate China for their own interests, our trade routes will be interrupted, and the air force will not be replenished, and the war will only get worse and worse! Once the final defeat is achieved, our government and the top echelons of the army will definitely hand me over as the culprit, and the industrial bases in southern Sichuan and southern Yunnan, which I have worked so hard to build for many years, will also fall into the pockets of others. ”

Zhou Ziwei's mind was dizzy, before coming to the headquarters of the An Family Army, she felt that she was the first messenger, the embodiment of light, and she would definitely influence An Yi, who was stubborn and had a strong army and did not know how to make progress, but she didn't expect that after An Yi's analysis, she seemed to be shallow. Due to the relationship between family and education, Zhou Ziwei is a staunch nationalist, and the government has retreated step by step under the Japanese invasion and signed many unequal treaties, but the government has held high the banner of resistance against Japan, calling for the abandonment of differences and unanimity to the outside world, catering to some of her views, so she will actively participate in various activities organized by the government and become an activist that Wang Chengjun can fight for. But now, under An Yi's fierce reprimand, Zhou Ziwei's originally firm confidence was shaken, and a thin mist rose in her eyes, looking pitiful.

Wang Chengjun saw that the momentum was taken away by An Yi, and then saw that Zhou Ziwei, who had been carefully developed and could affect many big people in Pingjin, looked sad, and seemed to have some kind of wavering, and secretly shouted in his heart, his eyes turned, and he immediately attacked An Yi's weak point:

"So, in the face of the invasion of the Japanese invaders, do we have to choose to back down and rely on the interests of the family and the nation in exchange for an illusory peace? In addition, through the general's remarks just now, can I draw a conclusion that the general is a shameful coward, in the face of the step-by-step pressing, in addition to being a shrinking turtle desperately enduring, he can only incompetently shout empty slogans, or send troops to make a gesture of intimidation, but the purpose is only to delay the pace of aggression of the Japanese invaders. Now tens of millions of compatriots in Northeast China and North China have fallen under the iron hooves of the Japanese invaders, general, as a middle-class person, as a patriotic general with high prestige among the whole people, if you don't save them, you dare not recover your own land, do you feel ashamed of the honor of your soldiers? ”

An Yi was furious: "Wang Chengjun, I didn't expect you to be such a person, narrow-minded, shallow, and dizzy!" Do you dare to touch your conscience and say, am I An Yi really a *** thief? I don't understand, since you are so awe-inspiring, why don't you scold Wang Jingwei, Wang Kemin and Qi Xieyuan, as well as Song Zheyuan in Beiping, they lost power and humiliated the country, and adopted a policy of concession to every step of the Japanese invaders, I watched them give up the land that we exchanged our lives and blood for during the three-year Great Wall Anti-Japanese War, and looked at the military flag planted on the Great Wall fortress, do you know how painful my heart is?

"For so many years, since the beginning of the Northern Expedition, Lao Tzu has been working hard all the way to the front, and some people will hide behind and quietly seek to seize the family business and territory that Lao Tzu has worked so hard to build. Wang Chengjun, today you and I are discussing whether I love the country or not, I want to ask you a rhetorical question, what about you? What about your organization? If Lao Tzu's army didn't hold southern Sichuan, where would there be today's Anjia army? If Lao Tzu's troops weren't stationed in North China, you wouldn't even have the opportunity to demonstrate, where would you still be able to run to my headquarters to scold me? The Seventeenth Army worked hard to train thousands of you, and all of them turned around and left, where do you say they went? Did you go to the front line of the anti-Japanese resistance? You and I know it in our hearts! I believe that one day if Lao Tzu's soldiers are gone, you grandchildren will not look at me more...... You touch your conscience and say, "Is everything I said true?" ”

Wang Chengjun looked at An Yi dumbfounded, he had never seen An Yi get so angry, and he suddenly regretted it in his heart. Anyway, I came to the headquarters of the 17th Army under the guise of gratitude this time, who would have thought that it would come to this point?

An Yi continued: "You and your party shouted to resist Japan, so may I ask, in the face of the loss of the land in the 918 Incident, and later the Great Wall War of Resistance and repeated failures, and now the Northeast Army Major Marshal Zhang Xueliang, who is now encircling and suppressing you in the northwest, how did you do it?" According to you, such a person can be regarded as a *** thief anyway, right? It stands to reason that you should fight-for-tat and eliminate traitors with righteousness, right? But how do you do it? Your center is eye-to-eye with him, and it's almost all together. You said that you want to be patriotic and resist Japan, okay, I can satisfy you, Lao Tzu immediately ordered to let the Northeast Army, the Northwest Army and the Jin Sui Army get out of the way, ensure the safety of your Party Central Committee, and let them bring all the teams to Hebei, no guns for guns and no money for money, only ask you to go to the front line to fight *** people, are you willing?

"That's right, after several years of development, the strength of my Anjia Army has indeed made great progress, but even our most elite 44th Division of the 24th Army, under the leadership of Gu Changfeng, didn't it also return in Liaoxi? During the War of Resistance on the Great Wall, we also had advanced fighters that surpassed the enemy, and didn't our troops also suffer heavy losses? Sometimes fighting a war is not just about looking at the numbers on the surface, the numbers are the most confusing and the most fallible. Let me give you an example, why didn't Han Fuqu, chairman of Shandong Province, dare to recover Qingdao, where only a few thousand Japanese troops were stationed, that port city is a famous commercial port in North China, and the annual tax revenue is as high as tens of millions. In fact, it is not, the most powerful navy has always been cruising in China's coastal waters, once a situation occurs, then there will be dozens or even hundreds of warships to kill, not to mention the recovery of Qingdao, to avoid the annihilation of the whole army is the best result! Looking at this exercise again, the special service regiment directly under the *** division and the mortar battalions of each brigade that served as the attacking side of the red side in the exercise were not dispatched, which is probably the same as the strength of a division of the Japanese army, it is such a force that easily broke down the defense line built by the 90,000 army in a month, you say, what can these pure numerical accumulations prove? At present, Song Zheyuan and Han Fuqu still firmly disagree with the central government's monetary reform policy, and still circulate silver in the territory under their control, how can such warlords be reliable? When you say you're going to fight, will they help or stand and watch?

"Wang Chengjun, if you really want to resist Japan, then how about you get back the thousands of people who have been trained in the past two years, and I will make a system for you, and push you to the front line when the war starts? Why, is your face so ugly and timid? Is it not confidence in yourself, or is it not confident in your comrades-in-arms? ”

Seeing that Wang Chengjun's face was flushed and his breathing became short, An Yi finally said:

"Wang Chengjun, today you pointed at my nose and scolded me for being a *** thief, did you see that I have a good temper and have repeatedly agreed to your requests, thinking that I am a good talker and can be easily fooled, and then want to create an opportunity for you to reverse the predicament by encouraging me to send troops to resist Japan? To be honest, I was disappointed, I didn't expect that I was helping such a person, who would disregard the interests of the country and the nation and put his friends in danger for the sake of his own plans!

"Today, I finally understand what it means to stand and talk without backache, you are shouting anti-Japanese on your lips one by one, but you are desperately trying to preserve your strength, I have become a wronged boss in front, I have worked hard for many years to support the national crisis, and I am scolded as a thief, I am really sad! Okay, I'm done venting, what else do you have to say? If it's gone, you can leave on your own, please remember to persuade the students and people you have instigated to go back, at this time, we really can't add any more chaos to our own people! Even if our beliefs are different, we can't do things that are happy for our relatives and enemies! ”

After speaking, An Yi glanced deeply at Wang Chengjun again, nodded and smiled at Zhou Ziwei, and turned to leave.

Zhou Ziwei no longer had the enthusiasm she had at the beginning, the tears in her eyes were still there, but she no longer felt wronged, and her face was full of deep thought.

Wang Chengjun wanted to speak and stopped, and when he saw Shen Fengdao and Lin Yaodong beside him after An Yi turned to leave, he glanced at him with disdain, the implied murderous aura and sharpness, he couldn't help but shudder, and couldn't help shaking his head and sighing.
