At this moment, Zhang Xuewu, who was inspecting the defense in Chengde, did not know that it was precisely because of his resistance on the night of the Shenyang incident and the subsequent struggle that he overestimated the opponent by himself, who was not tall, had dirty thoughts, and was generally deficient in calcium.

Originally, the historical Rehe Battle said that the army only invested four infantry brigades under the establishment of two divisions, two cavalry brigades and a mixed brigade and Manchuria [***], and then with the outbreak of the Great Wall War of Resistance, the army was rapidly reinforced, but now the army directly came to a large army to press the border, Zhang Xuewu, who did not know it, did not know the great changes in history at this moment, and he was happy for the thirty-six mortars that He Yingqin had transferred!

The previous batch of heavy machine guns made Zhang Xuewu feel full of confidence, the dense firepower network and complete fortifications were almost impeccable, for which Zhang Xuewu demolished at least one-third of the old city wall of Chengde, for his own destruction of historical monuments, Zhang Xuewu had to comfort himself Anyway, these city walls will be demolished after the founding of the country in later generations, so that they will be demolished during the special period, and they are just used in advance.

However, there are also Zhang Xuewu who dare not demolish it, that is, the Chengde Rehe Palace of the Manchu Dynasty! The whole division had a total of 11,226 men and 9,350 combatants, except for the crazy heavy artillery that Zhang Xuewu thought, and the firepower of 75 mm field artillery, mountain artillery, and light and heavy machine guns was equal to the sum of the two divisions of the Yue Army, and Zhang Xuewu had no intention of holding the entire Chengde, but only relied on the triangle of the Luan River for defense, and at the beginning he ceded half of Chengde to Yue himself, using street fighting to offset the Yue army's advantage in long-range firepower.

In the evening, Zhang Xuewu arranged 10 Swedish-made double-barreled 20-mm "Amennon" antiaircraft guns, and the role of these antiaircraft guns had been changed by Zhang Xuewu from air defense to flat fire, which were used to concentrate firepower to hit the tanks or armored vehicles of the army with armor-piercing shells, and to attack the starting position with grenades against the illusion of machine gun fire outside the range of machine guns, killing and injuring their living forces.

When Zhang Xuewu returned to the headquarters against the wind and snow, it turned out that Zhao Xinyu, Huang Tao, Xu Guohui, Wang Chuang, Li Xinkai, Zhang Tianpeng and others with solemn expressions gathered together, and Huang Fei'er, the director of the secret electricity room, could only stand in the corner of the basement and look around at the elder's bedroom with the file on his face.

"What's wrong? Are you worried about running away from me? Let's start with it, I'm not going to entertain you foodies who want meat and wine! Zhang Xuewu smiled and handed his coat to Li Mingtang, who was promoted to lieutenant colonel and adjutant general, and originally promised Li Mingtang to let him get out of the army, but there was a shortage of people around him, so he had no choice but to break his promise and transfer it back, and he also complained about Li Mingtang, but seeing the group of clumsy and clumsy guards around the division Li Mingtang was also very worried, for a group of guys who eat raw meat and drink cold water can take care of the diet and daily life of the division? Li Mingtang said that he was very worried, so he naturally returned to the division headquarters and did his old job.

"What's wrong with not talking?" Zhang Xuewu, who was standing in front of the stove and roasting his hands, frowned, and felt that the atmosphere seemed to be a little wrong?

Li Xinkai, who had an anxious face, handed a file to Zhang Xuewu and said: "Division, I said that the troops I have gathered on the front line of Jinzhou and Yuguan are as many as five divisions, plus two mixed brigades and heavy artillery brigades directly under the Kwantung Army, a total of sixteen brigades and the headquarters of Zhang Haipeng and Cheng Guorui. ”

"What?" Zhang Xuewu opened the file and said while reading: "When did this happen?" ”

Huang Tao was a little helpless and said: "It was the Beiping military intelligence report three days ago, and I went to the former enemy's general headquarters today to see it by chance?" There is a layer of floating ash on it, and even the sealed wax mark has not been moved? ”

"You went to the confidential room of the former enemy headquarters?" When Zhang Xuewu heard that this confidential military intelligence report was actually taken back by the director of his political department without authorization, he was angry, annoyed, and shocked for a while, and he didn't know what to do. Unauthorized dismantling of the wax marks of confidential letters of the military branch is a major crime that will cost the head, and once the military secrets are leaked, it will be impossible to explain it even if it is full of mouths.

Huang Tao sighed and said: "I also thought about it, even if I take this responsibility, I am not afraid, but I got it outside the adjutant's office, and it is said that the cabinet marshal threw it here!" Now that the commander has transferred two regiments of trucks and Li Fakui's cavalry brigade to move to the Tianjin Concession, where can we take care of us? What to do with the division? ”

"I rely on him Tang Erhu Ancestor for eighteen generations!" Zhang Xuewu threw the file to the ground, and such an important military situation was delayed for three days? Is this a war or a child's play? There is no reason to be invincible in such a child's play!

Zhang Xuewu, who was angry, took a deep breath, the most important thing at present is to stabilize the morale of the army, as the commander of a division, the first army cannot be chaotic, even if it is ten thousand knives, he must die with his eyes open.

Zhang Xuewu smiled slightly: "It's good to come!" I'm really afraid that he didn't dare to come, how many Chinese people did we bear in the Northeast battle? My Seventh Brigade bears the brunt of the attack, even if we change the name of the Central Army now, but we are still the ones who have lost their land and abandoned their land, right? Now we have built a complete defense system in Chengde, and have stored a large amount of ammunition and materials, and our department can hold on for at least 40 days. ”

Zhang Tianpeng looked around at everyone with some concern, and said after hesitation: "Master! There are some things that I don't know whether to say or not? ”

Zhang Xuewu nodded and said, "The Kou army is pressing, you can say everything you want to say in your heart!" ”

Zhang Tianpeng took a deep breath and said, "Master! The current position of the Yue army is a two-way flank attack on the central advance, and its strength is at least 17 or 80,000, and the 5th and 6th army corps in the hands of the auxiliary commander, plus the volunteers and miscellaneous troops, are only 100,000 people, how can they be ready to attack the opponent of Yue Kou with one blow? Once the Fifth and Sixth Army Corps are defeated by the two lines of the army, Chengde will inevitably become an isolated city, and the troops trapped in the isolated city must be surrounded by the outside line to have the possibility of breaking the siege. Once the army completes the encirclement, more than 10,000 soldiers of the newly formed first division will die and have no place to be buried! Division! But as long as you give an order, I, Zhang Tianpeng, dare to go up to the knife mountain, and dare to go down the oil pot! ”

Zhang Xuewu looked around at the crowd: "Hmm! That's right, let's all share our opinions! Don't hide it. ”

Wang Chuang said with a nonchalant face: "There is no half of the house tiles, there is no answer to the door, the only old house is still in Jilin, it is said that I burned it myself, and the old lady was burned alive by myself, I am fucking unfilial!" My old king is now unrelated, propertyless, wifeless, and childless! I fucking picked up this life, a rotten life, and I have already sold it to the master! Shizuo, you can do whatever you like, and in the end, you will be like the Beidaying meeting, point me to a place, tell me Wang Chuang, you kid will die. ”

Zhao Xinyu lit a cigarette and smiled, and said very obscenely: "Lao Tzu is more than all of you, I married a college student in Beiping, and when I left, the baby was pregnant!" ”

"Fuck your uncle! A bastard surnamed Zhao! Do you get married without notifying the old men? Xu Guohui jumped up immediately!

Zhang Xuewu and the others were also surprised, Zhao Xinyu smiled helplessly and said: "I didn't hold a ceremony banquet, I gave her the ring, she hasn't graduated yet, she said that she wanted to leave me a queen in order to let me go into battle and kill the enemy without worries!" ”

Zhao Xinyu's voice became lower and lower, and he suddenly paused and said, "Master, you give the brothers a secret!" Can you go back to Peking alive this time? ”

Zhang Xuewu wrote a line of words before returning to his desk, and then said to Huang Fei'er: "Director Huang will immediately leave for Beiping tomorrow with all the female soldiers in the secret room, and ask Deputy Division Commander Hao to find the fiancée of Chief of Staff Zhao, and be sure to take care of it. ”

Huang Fei'er was slightly stunned and said: "It's okay to send a telegram, why do you want to run it yourself?" And bring all the female soldiers. ”

Zhang Xuewu's eyes widened: "Do you know what an order is?" A command is a command, and its sanctity is unquestionable! ”

Huang Fei'er also glared at her eyes and replied: "The big war is coming, you want to drive us away!" You look down on people, it's the old warlord style, and as a party [***] person, I can't obey this kind of order! ”

Zhang Xuewu slapped the table and said, "Do you want to fall into the hands of Yu himself after breaking the city?" Or do you want me to kill you with my own hands before the city is broken? ”

Zhao Xinyu persuaded on the side: "Director Huang, don't get excited, the division seat is for your good, so be it!" I vouch for you, if the war is not tense and not as pessimistic as the master expected, you can come back at any time! Besides, there are many family members of our newly formed First Division in Beiping, Deputy Division Commander Hao is careless, and it is inevitable that he will not take care of it thoroughly, so we can rest assured that you will help us in the past! ”

Huang Fei'er looked at Zhang Xuewu and said, "Master!" Is the chief of staff right? ”

Zhang Xuewu nodded, waved his hand, and soon, all the female soldiers who had been prepared overnight, together with two female doctors and six female nurses, all returned to Beiping by car, Xu Guohui looked at the truck in the distance and sighed: "Starting tomorrow, we will all be public, and there will be a lot less laughter!" Tomorrow, I won't be here from this broken division, and I will call Lao Zhao if I have something! ”

After speaking, Zhang Xuewu and Zhao Xinyu, who looked at each other, rode on their horses and disappeared as soon as they slipped away......
