Chapter Eighty-Nine: Civil Strife in the Northeast

On January 1, 1938, Jin Bihui, who was originally celebrating the New Year, disappeared, and his body was found on Zhang Xueliang's bed.

Zhang Xueliang flatly denied it, because he was inspecting the troops with several cronies at the time, and he wanted to transfer back the Protector Army in Fujin and Mudanjiang, replace it with the Northeast Army, and counterattack Boli and Shuangchengzi.

Because this matter is confidential, the only people who know about it are Yu Xuezhong, Wan Fulin, Wu Keren, Ma Zhanshan and others, but these people are all regarded as Zhang Xueliang's retainers. Jin Bihui has always had a relationship with Zhang Xueliang**, everyone knows this. So no matter how Zhang Xueliang denied it, the people in the Northeast didn't believe it.

Pu Yi, who had arrived in Changchun from Beijing to prepare for a New Year's speech, directly put Pu Jie under house arrest. The government in the northeast is still divided.

The Protector Army in Heilongjiang was formed by Jin Bihui, and there were rumors everywhere that Zhang Xueliang was going to transfer the Protector Army to the interior and annex the Protector Army. Zhang Xueliang did order a part of the National Protector Army to change guards with the former Northeast Army in the name of the commander-in-chief of the Northeast Government.

Jin Bihui died, Fu Jie was placed under house arrest by Pu Yi because he was too close to Zhang Xueliang, and he couldn't say a word, and he didn't know whether he was alive or dead. Some people even say that Zhang Xueliang killed Pu Jie as well. Most of the generals of the Protector Army are Manchu and Mongolian nobles, who do they rely on if they don't rely on Puyi?

The Northeast Civil War broke out.

The sudden sound of gunfire in the direction of Shenyang woke up Lin Yurong, who was sleeping on the map in the war room. He had just returned from Guiyang to the 16th Division of the Second Group Army as a division commander, and in the past two years, the commanders of all divisions have been constantly changing the environment, and the headquarters said that they should be familiar with operations in various environments. He had already run the Marine Corps of the Pacific Fleet, in the cavalry division of the Kulen. The special reconnaissance company in the Tianshan Mountains went to Guiyang to experience fighting in the southern jungle. Just returned to the 16th Division, ready to experience plains and city combat. Liaoyang is a city that has not been transformed. It maintains the appearance of a traditional city and is a training ground for urban warfare.

"Or is there a fight?"

Lin Yurong asked in a low voice, there was no light in the room, and a staff officer had already figured out the war room and went to the communications office.

A person entered the war room lightly, "The Protector Army and the Northeast Army fought." It was Wang Yizhe who guarded Shenyang, but the Protector Army and the Northeast Army were mixed together, both inside and outside the city. I can't tell what's going on right now. ”

It was Xiao Jinguang who came in, he was one of the group of party members who withdrew from the Whampoa Military Academy, and after he came back, he studied at the Xinmin Military Academy. is Lin Yurong's senior. However, he used to be a staff officer in the Third Army, and now he has come to be the chief of staff. and Lin Yurong are temporary partners.

"According to the agreement, they have military operations, they want to inform us"

The words are not finished yet. The staff officer who touched it out returned. Along with them were the communications troops. This staff officer is very young, he was a soldier recruited by He Long in his hometown, and later he looked good and was sent to the military academy to study. From the platoon commander to the company commander to the regimental staff officer, he got up step by step, called Liao Hansheng. But he didn't speak, it was the communications soldier who spoke.

Wang Yizhe was stabbed and wounded, but he led people to guard the Shenyang Arsenal, and the Northeast Army was moving in the direction of the Arsenal. However, he could not judge how many people the Northeast Army could reach, and he did not know the situation of the Northeast Army. ”

"Command. The second regiment, the third regiment went forward. Whether it is the Northeast Army or the Protector Army, take down their artillery regiments. Order the Protector to surrender. ”

Lin Yurong did not say what to do with the Northeast Army, but the front-line troops had a good impression of the Northeast Army.

There are already staff officers who report to the military department, and this does not need to be ordered, but processed.

Xiao Jinguang turned on the dim light and lay on the map with Lin Yurong. The doors to the war room and communications were all open. It's already full of glimmers.

"Alas, the Navy and the Third Army have already used computers, and we still have a telegraph here." Lin Yurong sighed in a low voice.

Xiao Jinguang said with a smile: "Don't worry, it's used over there, and we're going to be on our side." ”

"Hurry up, first with the First Army, helicopters, rocket artillery, and personnel carriers are already about the same." Lin Yurong pulled the updated map of Liao Hansheng and another staff officer and asked, "The location of the three regiments doesn't seem to be right, when did they go there?" ”

"The third regiment is in the front, and it has already prevented civil strife in the northeast, and the commander of his second company is called Wei Guoqing, and today he wants to exercise and touch out a regimental headquarters of the Northeast Army. It's in this location. He reported that the regiment was not attacked, but the regimental headquarters was very disorganized. I guess it's not clear what happened. ”

Another staff officer said: "Not every Protector Army is involved in the operation, and there are some Protector regiments that are the same as this one, but it is difficult to estimate when it will be involved in civil unrest." ”

Lin Yurong immediately ordered: "First disarm these troops and tell them that the Chinese are not allowed to fight the Chinese, otherwise they will be killed." They were ordered to assist in quelling the unrest. ”

Liao Hansheng said with some pride: "If there is a helicopter, just shout with a loudspeaker, and don't listen to the cannon." Hey. ”

Xiao Jinguang slapped him on the head: "What are you proud of?" Still ready to go back to the First Legion? Forbid. ”

Liao Hansheng smiled: "Revolutionary work, it's all the same there. ”

Several staff officers laughed under their breath.

Lin Yurong said: "The headquarters has moved forward. Let's go to the front and have a look. ”

"The military department ordered our division to go to Shenyang to quell the chaos." A communications soldier ran over to convey the order, and then said with a smile: "There is also the commander's command, leave it alone, the local government, the work team and the militia in the back will follow immediately." Take the Shenyang Arsenal, the equipment can be left alone, and the personnel are not allowed to lose one. ”

Lin Yurong frowned. The commander of the Fifth Army was Zhang Linyue, who was extremely strict with his subordinates, and was regarded as the strictest one in the whole army.

Xiao Jinguang pulled him: "Let's go, it's a little difficult, I don't think Wang Yizhe will be so stupid." If we're going slowly, that's not for sure. ”

"It's not difficult to attack it, but now all the troops of the Protector Army and the Northeast Army are pouring towards Shenyang. Do you want me to keep it? Lin Yurong said while following the division headquarters in a hurry.

In Liaoyang, although not many ordinary people turn on the lights, some cadres are knocking on doors from door to door. Some residents have lined up on the streets to receive firearms and ammunition from the armed forces. The response of local governments has indeed not been slow.

The fortresses and positions on the other side of the Liao River were silent and had apparently been taken by the troops. But the troops did not take the bridge, but silently swam across the Liao River. The bridge was given to migrant workers.

In Shan Zhuangzi Town, Wei Guoqing took two guards to the regimental headquarters of the Northeast Army.

"Now an order is hereby proclaimed ordering the Northeast Army, the units of the Protector Army, to immediately cease all hostile military operations. Disarming on the spot and maintaining local law and order, Zhou Rong, commander of the Second Group Army of the Chinese Revolutionary Army. ”

Wei Guoqing ignored the expressions of the officers who looked unconvinced.

"In addition, our division commander ordered that your regiment can form a capable company to quell the chaos with our army, provided that it can keep up with us."

Wei Guoqing is very young, and his face is full of youth and confidence. The officers were restrained by helmets, draped in draped armor and armed to the teeth.

The strangest thing was that the noisy troops outside subsided, and the officers did not know how many people had come from each other.

When I walked out of the regiment headquarters, I saw that my troops were all forced to squat on the ground, and there were not many people on the other side, but there were people at the commanding heights. The equipment on the soldiers in charge of guarding was even more exaggerated than Wei Guoqing's. The colorful weapons in the firelight are all camouflaged. A frighteningly large heavy sniper rifle was carried on the back of a fighter. The staffing rate is very high, almost one in a dozen.

The weight on the shoulders of these soldiers would not be lighter just by looking at the ammunition they hung.

"You choose the best soldiers, and the rest of you follow the arrangements of the government and the migrant workers who come later. Without an order, they are not allowed to leave the barracks, they are not allowed to harass the common people, and those who find it will be dealt with by military law, and they will be killed. Hear no. Wei Guoqing shouted loudly, startling the officers.

What kind of unit is this? Elite into this. Legend has it that the Wuhan government's army is about the same size as the Northeast Army, but if they are all such troops, the officers really have nothing to say. The guards and death squads of the young marshal were not up to this level either.

The best soldier of the Northeast Army, this is really a rather vague concept. This regiment is based on the standard of a company, removing all auxiliary arms, and only selecting veterans and young and strong ones. But then he found that his company was still too weak compared to the scattered soldiers who were quietly advancing like ghosts in the dark night.

Some of the veterans could not keep up and were ordered to return to the barracks. In the end, only more than thirty young people were left gasping for breath. None of the officers were gone.

Wei Guoqing ran over from the front and said with a smile: "Throw away the rags on your bodies for a while, keep the machine guns, and all the machine guns with machine gun bullets are not there." If there is a battle, you are responsible for fire support with machine guns. Leave the rest alone. That mortar was also thrown away, it was useless. (To be continued......)
