Chapter 21: Intercepting the Fugitive
Hundreds of cavalry galloped on the ground, and the momentum that rushed to the face, if faced by ordinary people, they might be shocked and avoided. But right now, there was a man standing on the road, with his hands behind his back, standing tall, standing with his hands tied, looking at the galloping cavalry indifferently, without the slightest intention of avoiding the road.
"That kid, where did you go to the army, are you fucking looking for death, dare to block the way of Chief of Staff Zhang!" The speed of the horse slowed down, and Ma Ming raised his horsewhip and pointed at Jiang Li and scolded.
"It doesn't matter which unit I belong to, but Chief of Staff Zhang, I don't handle the military affairs of Fengtian and rush north, what do I want?" Jiang Li asked indifferently.
"Naturally, there is military affairs in the body, the body of Lieutenant General Lao Tzu, where do you need to explain to a little major of you, hurry up and give way, otherwise don't blame Lao Tzu for being polite, killing you on the spot is also your ancestor burning high incense!" Zhang Haipeng has suffered a lot of anger in Fengtian City these days, and he has no place to vent, so he can't hold it back. Drew his pistol and said sharply at Jiang Li.
"The chief of staff is so majestic, since you abandoned Fengtian and wanted to be this deserter, no wonder I was not polite and gave me all their guns!"
As Jiang Li drank violently, the soldiers who had already been ambushed on both sides of the road made a loud noise.
Hundreds of soldiers each pointed their guns at Zhang Haipeng's unit, who was caught off guard in the middle of the road.
Zhang Haipeng's soldiers looked at each other in shock, there were at least three heavy machine guns and dozens of light machine guns in ambush on both sides of the road, as long as the other party gave an order, it was only a moment's work to destroy his defenseless battalion.
"What are you doing here, do you want to commit the next offense? Which army are you, let your commander talk to me!" Zhang Haipeng was startled, but still said in a loud voice.
"If you dare to be stubborn when you die, and escape from the battle, this alone is enough to shoot you. Put their guns down, and those who dare to resist will be killed! Jiang Li shouted coldly.
"You dare!" Ma Ming was startled and was about to draw his gun.
Jiang Li gave Wang Sanpao a look, Wang Sanpao understood, nodded and smiled, and took the first step to shoot at Ma Ming's head.
With a bang, there was an extra blood hole in Ma Ming's head, and a hundred and dozens of catties of body fell from the horse's back.
Zhang Haipeng's legs trembled, he didn't expect that these people who came out of nowhere really dared to shoot and killed his adjutant. The carcass under the horse clearly and unmistakably told these people that the other party really dared to shoot. It's not a mess.
"Anyone else who wants to die, just try!" Ma Zhuang said predictively, "Everyone got off the horse, handed over the firearms, and took off the military clothes to Lao Tzu, you don't deserve to wear this clothes, and you too, what's the matter, still on the horse, do you want Ma Ye to come and take it off with you?" ”
"You, you ......" Zhang Haipeng shuddered, took off the clothes on his body according to his words, and the soldiers who followed saw that the main general was stripped of his clothes, where did they dare to hesitate, they handed over their guns and undressed, and in a moment, more than 500 people who still looked quite good were all wearing underwear, and they got on the horse in a gray manner, and were driven back to Fengtian City by Jiang Li.
"I don't know what Your Excellency is called?" Zhang Haipeng put away his contempt for Jiang Li, and only then did he begin to face Jiang Li squarely, he couldn't think of anyone in Fengtian City who would attack him, it stands to reason that he didn't have any mortal enemies, and it was impossible for the young marshal to give orders to him.
"The 7th Brigade of the Beida Battalion, Jiang Li, the commander of the 973rd Battalion." Jiang Li sat on the horseback and replied coldly.
"The 7th Brigade of the North Daying Battalion? I still have some friendship with your brigade commander, General Wang Yizhe, I don't know where Brigadier Wang is now, can you let me meet him? ”
Zhang Haipeng said with a pleasant face, he hated Jiang Li very much in his heart, since his debut, he has never been so embarrassed, but he is a town guard today but planted in the hands of a battalion commander, and he was stripped of his clothes, and he was not laughed at when he passed it out? Not to mention Jiang Li, even if it is Wang Yizhe, although the 7th Brigade under the command is elite compared to his troops, Wang Yizhe has to recognize himself as a junior in front of him. Even Zhang Xueliang couldn't do this to him, and he didn't give the order not to resist. As long as he sees Wang Yizhe, won't this hateful little battalion commander let him knead and flatten it when the time comes?
"Do you think that after seeing Brigade Commander Wang, you will be able to clean me up?" Jiang Li seemed to have seen through Zhang Haipeng's thoughts, and glanced at Zhang Haipeng with a smile.
"No, no, I think there must be some misunderstanding, I didn't do anything hurtful, you want to arrest me, you have to have an explanation, right?"
Zhang Haipeng hurriedly denied it, and he was not without resentment in his heart, even if he left the city, it was not his business alone, and others also fled in large numbers? It's Wang Yizhe, when the Japanese army attacked Beidaying, he couldn't see others?
Later, Wang Yizhe came to the staff headquarters in the chaos, Zhang Haipeng sent Wang Yizhe back to the 7th Brigade, speaking of which Wang Yizhe was also unlucky, when the Japanese army attacked Beidaying, it also attacked Fengtian City, Wang Yizhe caught up with the Japanese attack, almost missed the bullet, and was forced back halfway, who knew that Zhang Haipeng fled again, and now in the entire Fengtian City, only Tibetan Yi is struggling to maintain the situation. The hands and feet are nimble, and the eyebrows and eyes are transparent. There was only no news left, and the ordinary citizens who didn't know until the Japanese army entered the city were still kept in the dark at this time.
"Saying, is it a saying that you escaped from the battle? You shouted that you wanted the soldiers to die if they stood up, and you were killed, and you said it righteously, how could you see the Japanese army attacking the city, but you chose to flee instead? ”
Zhao Tieshu reprimanded with a dark face, and the other Wang Sanpao, Ma Zhuang, Xu Sheng, all the soldiers and others were all indignant, and their eyes were staring at Zhang Haipeng with fire. Jiang Li is right, these upper-level soldiers shouted in their mouths not to resist, and asked the soldiers below to sacrifice themselves for the country, but they ran faster than anyone else, while they, the low-level and big-headed soldiers, had to carry out the orders of the upper echelons, and let the Japanese soldiers pierce their chests and let the Japanese soldiers die. Their parents, their loved ones, also have to face the brutal Japanese at all times.
"The young marshal doesn't care about the northeast anymore, what can I do if I am a town guard to catch ducks on the shelves and be pulled to the position of chief of staff?" Hearing Zhao Tieshu's questioning, Zhang Haipeng smiled awkwardly and touched his nose, this matter was brought up by a big-headed soldier in person, which was indeed quite face-saving.
"Brigade Commander Wang can't see anyone now, there are few people in the 7th Brigade who can be the master now, I persuade Zhang Dazhen to stop this thought, this Fengtian City, you have to go, if you don't go, you have to go, if you cooperate, I will let you live for a few more days, if you don't cooperate, the adjutant who was killed by one shot will be the end." Jiang Li is too lazy to talk nonsense with Zhang Haipeng, this kind of person eats hard rather than soft, and is afraid of power but not virtue. If you say good things, the other party will only secretly have bad intentions, so that the other party will always feel that their lives are in danger, but they will be more obedient.
"I don't know what you want me to do?" Zhang Haipeng shuddered and asked when he saw Jiang Li's cold eyes sweeping over.
"Back to Fengtiancheng, immediately send a telegram to Taonan, ordering your troops of the Second Provincial Defense Brigade in Taonan to rush to the aid of Fengtiancheng, and in the name of the Frontier Staff Headquarters, order the Provincial Defense Brigade to rush to the aid of Fengtian in the Zhishan Division, and there are also a few telegrams, which may not have much effect, and I also need to send them in your name." Jiang Li smiled coldly.
Zhang Haipeng's body shook on horseback, but he didn't expect Jiang Li to have such an idea and give a military order, which made him completely stand on the opposite side of Zhang Xueliang. But the consequences of disobedience made it even more difficult for him to accept, but when his Second Provincial Defense Brigade arrived in Fengtian City, Jiang Li, this kid, could still let him stand in front of him and talk? Zhang Haipeng was ruthless in his heart, he didn't let him survive, he couldn't die, he Zhang Haipeng's name was written upside down.
