Chapter 156: The Benefits of Door-to-Door Delivery
Tang Yulin was unwilling to give in at first, but Jiang Li took Zhao Yi, Feng Zhanhai, and some cavalry to knock on four or five counties north of the Rehe River in a row, and after defeating Tang Yulin's infantry brigade, Tang Yulin could no longer sit still, and dredged up with Jiang Li again. And as soon as possible, all the cattle and horses were collected and sent to Jiang Li, and an additional 300,000 yuan, 1,500 horses, and 300 cattle were given. Send Jiang Li away like a god, lest Jiang Li stay in Rehe for a while.
With these more livestock, Jiang Li's westward migration was a little faster than the original plan, and the elders trekked to Guisui, and Jiang Li took tens of thousands of troops to settle in Guisui for a temporary rest.
When Jiang Li was resting in Guisui, Ningxia at this time was already in chaos.
Drive.............
The hooves of the horses of the brigade trampled on the ground and made a thunderous rolling sound.
"Master, something is wrong." Ma Zanliang and Ma Zhong each jumped off their horses and strode towards Ma Hongbin's yard, and as soon as they entered the door, they saw Ma Hongbin's dark face.
"I received the news that Nanjing asked Jiang Li, the commander of the anti-Japanese coalition forces in the east, and Huang Xiansheng to come to Ningxia, and Qinghai to seize the territory of our Ma Jiajun." Ma Hongbin's face was originally dark.
"What does Shizuo mean is that he plans to join forces with Qingma?" Ma Zanliang first heard what he meant from Ma Hongbin's tone, although Ningma and Qingma are both Ma Jiajun, the contradiction between the two armies has been going on for a long time. Even a few months ago, when Ma Hongbin was still the chairman of Gansu Province, the so-called Lei Ma Incident broke out, and Lei Zhongtian detained Ma Hongbin, and Ma Lin still had more than 2,000 cavalry in Lanzhou at that time. They didn't move. Sit back and watch Lei Zhongjun's seizure of Ma Hongbin. Later, after a series of twists. Although Ma Hongbin escaped with his life, he also lost the position of chairman of Gansu Province, and now he has returned to his nest in Ningxia, and Ma Lin has gone to Qinghai Province. The two Ma family armies, which had the same origin, were completely split.
"Otherwise, what can we do, Jiang Li, Huang Xiansheng has an army of sixty or seventy thousand, and if we don't join forces with Qingma, we will rely on our 20,000 people in Ningxia. It's not enough for the other party to stuff their teeth! Ma Hongbin said angrily, "I knew that he Jiang Zhongzheng was so ruthless, and he should have tried his best to pull him off the horse in the Central Plains War." ”
"Master, Qingma has just set up a beam with us, will he agree to join forces with us to fight against Jiang Li and Huang Xiansheng from the west?" Ma Zhong said suspiciously.
"In normal times, whether he wins or I win, the west of Gansu is the world of Ma Jiajun after all, if Jiang Li is served. Huang Xiansheng let it in, it's hard to say whether there will be a place for our Ma Jiajun to stand in the future. If he doesn't send troops to Ningxia, I will demote Jiang Li to see that he can live his peaceful life in Qinghai. ”
Ma Hongbin's face was ruthless, uniting all the forces of the Ma family, although they are still a little weak, it is not impossible to fight, if there is only his team in Ningxia, wanting to fight against Jiang Li's army is tantamount to hitting a stone with an egg. With Ningxia alone, it is impossible to feed Jiang Lihuang Xiansheng's 70,000 army, Ma Hongbin does not believe that under this pressure, Ma Lin does not dare to fight to the death.
"In addition, I will send someone to contact my second uncle and ask him to help with the situation in Nanjing, if possible, it is best to let Ma Hongkui return to Ningxia to ensure that the Ma family has a foundation in the northwest."
…………….
"Before the year of establishment, he can lead an army alone and become a decisive force in the country, only Zhang Hanqing and Commander Jiang, but Zhang Hanqing is the shadow of his father, and he has no ability to keep it, but Commander Jiang can play a huge situation, which is really convincing."
Yan Xishan's henchman Zhou Yu hugged Jiang Li with a fist.
"Mr. Zhou has also won the award, but I want to congratulate Chairman Yan on his return to Shanxi, the current situation is chaotic, and a capable person like Chairman Yan cannot govern Shanxi and consolidate the national defense of the northern border of the Republic of China. It's a pity that I'm now entangled in miscellaneous things, and my army doesn't even have a place to live, so I can't go to Taiyuan to have a drink with Chairman Yan in person. Jiang Li said politely.
"There will always be a chance to meet in the future. The chairman also praised Commander Jiang, and after hearing about the appointment of Commander Jiang in Nanjing, he specially sent me here to see if Commander Jiang had any difficulties, and if so, Chairman Yan would definitely try his best to help Commander Jiang solve it. Zhou Jue's face was ruddy, and he looked much better than when he lost the Central Plains War a few months ago, when Yan Xishan went to Dalian and took refuge. The reason is none other than Yan Xishan's return to Shanxi to take power.
"To say that there are really a lot of troubles, the people of Fengtian who moved west with me this time, the total number of laborers is three or four hundred thousand, as well as the families of the soldiers, etc., one mouth a day, and a large amount of food is gone. Now it's cold and snowy, and it's also difficult to enter Ningxia. The Northwest Ma Jiajun is not easy to get along with, and I don't have a clue for a while. There is also a lot of ordnance and ammunition consumption, and there is a shortage of cold-proof cotton clothes and tents. Jiang Li was stunned at first, Yan Xishan would be so kind, there are few warlords in troubled times who are easy to deal with, there must be demons when things go wrong, Yan Xishan must have some other intentions. However, Jiang Li naturally would not show off his wealth, and it was rare for Zhou Ying to come forward like a warm-hearted person, and he said bitterly for a while.
"To tell you the truth, this time the chairman sent me north to solve some of Jiang Shiling's problems." Zhou Ying mysteriously lowered his voice and said to Jiang Li, "Before leaving, Chairman Yan explained to me that as long as Commander Jiang is willing to lead troops to attack the Majia Army in Ningxia, he is willing to fund Commander Jiang with 50,000 loads of food, 500,000 rounds of machine rifle ammunition, and 40,000 grenades. Mortar shells seven thousand rounds. In addition, knowing that Commander Jiang was short of transportation, he specially raised 2,000 horses. ”
urged him to fight Ningxia so urgently, it turned out that he was afraid that he would not leave in Suixi, Fu Zuoyi was a general under Yan Xishan, and Suiyuan was also Yan Xishan's territory, no wonder. Originally, Jiang Li stayed in Suixi for a few more days, because he wanted to take over the bandit "Yang Monkey Boy" in this area, his real name was Yang Yaofeng, and he had 2,000 people under his command, and all of them also brought horses, so that such a force could do a lot for him in the future. I can't imagine that I can get so many benefits in plain white, so naturally I don't want to be in vain. I didn't give the money out before, but I could still eat white food, so it was really interesting to let Yan Xishan, a famous old man, take out something like this.
"Then thank Chairman Yan for his generosity, and please rest assured that as soon as the things arrive, I will immediately lead my troops to Ningxia to allocate them." Jiang Li said with a sworn promise.
"That's good, I'll call back to the chairman." As soon as Zhou Wei heard Jiang Li's agreement, his face immediately turned overjoyed, as long as Jiang Li didn't stay in Suiyuan, it would be good to go wherever he liked, and it would be nothing to spend some things to send people away, although he was defeated in the Central Plains War, but Yan Xishan had been running Shanxi for many years, and the economic foundation was still there, and he intercepted a large number of troops, and took out such a sum of materials, for Yan Xishan, it was only a pain in the flesh at most, far from the point of breaking his muscles and bones.
