"Commission, Han Xiangfang is hateful, but at the moment, the overall situation is still important, Han Xiangfang has nearly 100,000 troops, and the Battle of Xuzhou still depends on Han Xiangfang." He Yingqin reminded that this is also the helplessness of the current situation, even if some local warlords should indeed be killed, but they are afraid of the current situation, and they are more worried that Han Fuyu, who is in a desperate situation, will join the enemy. Even when Chairman Jiang had murderous intentions, he also threw a mouse. This is also the confidence of Han Fuyu to dare to withdraw without a fight.

"Commission, someone from the northwest is here, Zhang Zhibang asks to see him." The guards outside reported loudly.

"Zhang Zhibang? The general of the Northwest Army who made a big show in the Great Wall War of Resistance? How did he come to Wuhan? "He Yingqin was stunned, Nanjing also has a record for some well-known generals in the northwest, Zhang Zhibang is notoriously hot-tempered, it stands to reason that now in the northwest, he is also the commander of the main army, and it is not very suitable to be sent to Wuhan as a liaison officer, could it be that Zhang Zhibang has committed something recently that has provoked Jiang Li's taboo?

He Yingqin was guessing that Chairman Jiang had already given orders.

"Humble Zhang Zhibang, I've seen the commission!"

Zhang Zhibang only gave a military salute to Chairman Jiang, but he pretended not to know He Yingqin. It annoyed He Yingqin, he didn't believe that Zhang Zhibang would not know who he was.

"Why, at this juncture, what is Jiang Li doing when he sends a general like you to Wuhan, is it that now the northwest is so ashamed that he has let a general be a liaison?"

Chairman Jiang glanced at Zhang Zhibang with some appreciation, his subordinates have no talents, but there are very few that can reassure him on the battlefield, especially after Liu Zhi also suffered a defeat, he has this feeling. There were not a few troops controlled by Nanjing. However, few of them were able to play a decent record against the Japanese army.

"Naturally not. The lowly post was originally to train troops in Sichuan. However, Shandong suffered a great change, the battle situation in Shijiazhuang was in danger, and he was ordered by the commander to go to Henan to report on his work. Zhang Zhibang didn't see much fear in the face of Chairman Jiang, and he was still full of confidence.

"Deal with Han Xiangfang? Jiang Li has already planned it? What are you guys going to do. If the southern Hebei side is not supported, can the main force of the North China Front Army in the south be blocked? Although Chairman Jiang was angry, he didn't expect Jiang Li to directly decide how to deal with Han Fuyu, and it seemed that sending Zhang Zhibang over was just to say hello to him, just like just saying hello before, he occupied Zhengzhou and Luoyang successively.

Han Fuyu retreated without a fight, not to mention the extremely bad impact, and directly caused the two group armies under the command of the commander to fall into the trap of being surrounded by the Japanese army. For the sake of the anti-Japanese war, this wind must not rise. The commander felt that if it was possible, the Nanjing side would directly assign Han Fuyu to the Military Committee of the Northern Theater. If the battle of Xuzhou is lacking troops. Then Nanjing will be responsible for restraining Han Fuyu, and he can no longer be given the power to act arbitrarily and unscrupulously. ”

Zhang Zhibang said, but he gritted his steel teeth in his heart, as long as Han Fuyu was assigned to the Military Committee of the Northern Theater, with his understanding of Jiang Li, Han Fuyu had ten lives, and it was also a dead end.

"Han Fuyu is a very assertive person, there is a shortage of manpower here in the Battle of Xuzhou, since you can withstand it for the time being, then I will transfer Han Fuyu to northern Jiangsu and northern Anhui." Chairman Jiang naturally would not easily look at the Lu army, which was already in full swing in the northwest, and then smoothly annexed Han Fuyu. Since Zhang Zhibang said such a thing, he was also happy to push the boat with the current.

"It's okay, now that the commission has made a resolution, the lowly post will also be resigned. Here, too, I would like to ask for instructions from the commissioner. Zhang Zhibang said.

"The central government didn't grant Jiang Li the right to act cheaply, so what else do you have to ask the central government for instructions?" He Yingqin said abruptly.

"The number of the 9th Group Army of the National Revolutionary Army needs to be agreed by the commission." Zhang Zhibang took out a document and handed it to Chairman Jiang.

Chairman Jiang glanced at it, and his heart suddenly became angry, and the establishment of the 9th Group Army was Song Zheyuan's 29th Army, Shang Zhen's 32nd Army, Sun Dianying's 41st Army, and Pang Bingxun's newly organized 43rd Army. Of course, the practice that the Northwest has always adhered to is that every group army will have a descendant of the army. Although these local powerful factions were also fighting in the north before, once he agreed to this appointment, it was tantamount to completely pushing these forces to the northwest.

"In addition, the commander asked the lowly post to come and spread the word, the Soviet Union intends to sell a batch of artillery and fighters to the northwest, but now the northwest can produce its own artillery, if the commission is interested, the northwest can buy a batch on behalf of the people, and then transfer it to Wuhan." Zhang Zhibang added. Originally, it was planned that the Central Plains Field Corps would be the establishment of three group armies, but at this time it was increased to four group armies, but in fact, the strength of the troops had not changed much, and Shang Zhen and these people were originally budgeted within the Central Plains Field Corps.

"Oh? How many artillery pieces and planes can Director Jiang buy over there? He Yingqin said with great interest that although the Nanjing Bloody Case broke out as in history, because Jiang Li had previously provided Nanjing with a batch of Soviet cutting-edge I15 fighters and munitions, Nanjing had more time to retreat than in history, and less than half of the people who died in the Nanjing Massacre in history. Therefore, He Yingqin and Chairman Chiang had great expectations for these Soviet-style weapons.

"THERE ARE FORTY PLANES OF VARIOUS TYPES AND ONE HUNDRED SOVIET-STANDARD 76MM GUNS. Light and heavy machine guns, as well as submachine guns, the Northwest can be self-sufficient, if the commission needs it, the Northwest can also provide a batch. ”

Zhang Zhibang said, before and after, excluding trainer aircraft, all kinds of bombers, I15 fighters. The first batch of orders and additional orders later, totaling nearly 300 aircraft of all kinds, at this time the northwest has been equipped with more than 130 Soviet-style aircraft, with the arrival of a large number of machinery behind, the production capacity of all kinds of aircraft will move forward a lot. After the production of Eagle fighters was discontinued, the production of Flying Dragon series fighters gradually increased. These Soviet-style planes purchased by the Northwest will eventually be sold to Nanjing in batches, so that on the one hand, Nanjing's military strength will be strengthened, and on the other hand, the gradual elimination of these Soviet-style planes will also improve and simplify the logistics of the Northwest Air Force.

It turned out that Zhang Zhibang was sent to bargain, Chairman Jiang snorted coldly in his heart, it seems that the ambition of the northwest is really not small, the Northeast Army, after the Shaanxi Army, actually wants to integrate these northern miscellaneous cards into the banner of the Northwest Army, but if Jiang Liken joins forces with him to oppress Han Fuyu, coupled with the later arms orders, it will not be impossible, and now Sun Dianying and they have completely lost control. I'm just a favor to push the boat. What's more, at this time, the front line of Shijiazhuang is shaking, and now is not the time to dismantle each other. As long as the Northwest Army can withstand the pressure from the north, then the pressure on Xuzhou will be much smaller than before. Otherwise, once there is a problem with the Pinghan Road, and the Northwest Army does not support the war and abandons Zhengzhou, then Wuhan, as the wartime capital, may also be in danger.
