Chapter 131 Becoming brothers in life and death with Ma Zhanshan
Sending off the British envoy, Wei Chendong happily got together with the main personnel of Yan and Huangjun, and drank a few glasses happily, everyone was satisfied with this result, Qi Zhishan and Huang Shiyin also smiled on their faces, the stronger and smarter their men were, the happier they were naturally in their hearts, and they also accompanied them together, and kept pouring wine for Wei Chendong.
Several generals led by Wu Dingbang first fined themselves a cup, which can be regarded as an apology and apology to Wei Chendong, because they all suspected Wei Chendong of being a human being before, and now, they have completely agreed with Wei Chendong's approach and have become more respectful of Wei Chendong.
If the superior wants the subordinate to respect and convince him, he must show his ability, he Wei Chendong has the ability, and everyone is obvious to all, although his Wei Chendong's military command ability is not the first or second in the whole army, but after this incident, everyone can see that a good general must not only have a tactical and strategic vision, but also have a political vision, only these three are qualified, can be regarded as a real general, and comprehensive these abilities, everyone agrees that this marshal position, non-Wei Chendong can not take on it.
Taking this opportunity, Wu Dingbang and some generals took the initiative to take the lead and asked Wei Chendong to remove the deputy word of his own deputy marshal and really sit on the post of marshal.
Everyone was a little confused, so Wei Chendong thought about it for a while and explained it to them.
"Now who is in charge of China, it is the Kuomintang, and we have openly stated that we will follow the national axe, what does it mean if I sit in the post of marshal? Where did he leave his old Jiang? The minds of other warlords have not put themselves in the position of marshal, and our Yan and Huang Army cannot start this way, and now in this sensitive period, the national political axe must be even more uneasy about us, if we do this at this juncture, it will only arouse their suspicion and prevention, this is not what we want to see, before we eliminate Yue himself, our Yan and Huang Army cannot conflict with other forces in the country, this will only be better for ......me."
After listening to Wei Chendong's words, everyone was convinced, and they no longer doubted Wei Chendong's command art, which made them deeply realize that a powerful politician can completely kill a group of powerful generals without moving a single soldier, this is the wrist of a politician, and even let you die without knowing how you died.
After the British side of the matter was dealt with, Wei Chendong had to find a way to try to dispel the suspicions of the national political axe and himself, he first disclosed the specific situation of this battle, Wei Chendong announced that in this battle, the Yan and Huang Army dispatched all the main forces, a total of more than 300,000 people, all 130 aircraft, all 110 tanks, all more than 200 field guns, etc., and finally the Yan and Huang Army lost more than 50,000 people, more than 30 aircraft, more than 40 tanks, and more than 60 artillery pieces.
The announcement of this result, people were in an uproar, so it seems that although the Yan and Huang Army beat the British away, but it was also a miserable victory, the loss was more than the British, and the general battle loss report will have a certain degree of falsehood, everyone wants to put gold on their faces, so they report their own battle loss rate a little smaller, and report the enemy's a little more, then it seems that the losses of the Yan and Huang Army may be more than this.
But who knew that Wei Chendong would do the opposite, deliberately reporting the battle loss rate of the other side much higher, that is, to let the national political axe and himself feel at ease with the Yanhuang Army, so that they feel that the Yanhuang Army is nothing more than that, and in the case of having such a big advantage, they will also fight like that, so that they can relax their vigilance, compared to the development of the Yanhuang Army, Wei Chendong does not value the reputation of these empty heads, this is just false, and he is just a warlord, not like a political axe to care about the face of any country, It's a big deal to let others say that Yanhuangjun is rubbish, what's the matter.
As for the casualties of the Yan and Huang Army, no one knows, Wei Chendong cleaned up the battlefield early, in order to make it more real, he simply got a large number of ashes, and then buried them in the original planned hero's grave, even if the Kuomintang military commander and the Yue Bente High School sent people to investigate, they would only find a large number of new graves, and it seems that the Yan and Huang Army had sacrificed a lot of people.
Of course, the British naturally have a better understanding of the situation than the national political axe and himself, after all, they are the participants, although I don't know how many casualties the Yan and Huang Army had, but there should not be so many, after later statistics, the heavy troops of the Yan and Huang Army basically did not lose much, let alone as Wei Chendong said, but the British political axe wants to save face, and naturally will not publicly say that what Wei Chendong said is false, isn't this lifting a stone to shoot himself in the foot? So not only will they not speak, but they will also try to block the news.
Wei Chendong also calculated the mentality of the British political axe, so he would make a big fanfare, until many years later, the world probably knew that in this battle, the Yan and Huang army suffered only more than 10,000 casualties, only four aircraft, seven or eight tanks, and basically no loss of artillery, so the Yan and Huang army's baggage not only did not lose anything, but was captured in the hands of the British army, because most of the weapons of the British army were lost on the battlefield and were taken away by the Yan and Huang army.
After a few months of turmoil, this matter was finally revealed, the gains of the Yan and Huang Army outweighed the losses, and it was considered to have gained a lot, but Wei Chendong was not too happy, after all, there were more important things to do next, and now it was the beginning of 1931, and Wei Chendong naturally would not forget this special year.
In 28 years, Zhang Zuolin, the king of the Northeast, still died, even if Wei Chendong asked Peng Hu to secretly rescue him, although he was not killed by his own explosives, but he died at the hands of his plainclothes.
Wei Chendong wanted to save Zhang Zuolin, not because he had any feelings for Lao Zhang, but because he felt that his life would be more beneficial to China, but this is fate, and there is no way to damn it.
In the spring of 31, the Yan and Huang Army, including female soldiers, had a total of more than 400,000 people, including more than 300,000 male soldiers and less than 100,000 female soldiers. I'm afraid that Yuzi will also be a lot sad, this is not what Wei Chendong wants to see.
In February 31, Wei Chendong was disguised and under the protection of several members of the Assassin Group, he secretly went to Heilongjiang, but soon after, it broke out that Wei Chendong was attacked in Heilongjiang, which immediately caused an uproar, and then, it was rumored that Wei Chendong and Ma Zhanshan, who was then the commander of the Heihe garrison and the commander of the Third Infantry Brigade, became brothers in life and death.
For this Peng Hu, many forces also know that with the emergence of the Yan and Huang Army, as Wei Chendong's brother, Peng Hu was naturally excavated by people, but why did this Peng Hu assassinate him Wei Chendong? For the inside story of this matter, I and some forces such as the national political axe still know the reason, and the cause of this incident has to talk about the renegade Lei Hong, Lei Hong's death can be said to be inseparable from Wei Chendong, although it is Lei Hong's anti-Wei Chendong, but obviously the relationship between Peng Hu and Lei Hong is deeper, when Wei Chendong called Peng Hu back from the Northeast, he knew that Lei Hong had to die, even if he didn't kill, Wei Chendong would not let Lei Hong go, so Peng Hu did it himself, and after bringing Lei Hong's ashes to the Northeast, he enshrined him.
Next, after Peng Hu defrauded Wei Chendong of several large quantities of materials and money, he publicly stated that he would break off his friendship with Wei Chendong and avenge his good brother Lei Hong. After getting the news from the Northeast, Wei Chendong scolded Peng Hu for being ungrateful, and threatened to send troops to destroy Peng Hu, but he couldn't do it for various reasons.
This time for some reason, Wei Chendong actually sent himself to the northeast and was shot, some people suspected that it was Peng Hu's strategy to make Wei Chendong fool, because Wei Chendong's matter Peng Hu must know, afraid that the Yan Huang Army would develop, and he would really come to the northeast to take revenge on him in the future, so he made the first move, but he didn't expect to be saved by Ma Zhanshan.
After the injury recovered, Wei Chendong publicly stated that he and Peng Hu would never die, and trumpeted his gratitude to Ma Zhanshan, saying that in the future, Brother Ma's affairs would be his Wei Chendong's affairs, and he would live and die together in the future.
