On an unnamed hill in northern Shaanxi, the 627th Regiment has been surrounded by the First Cavalry Division, although it has just repelled the attack of the First Cavalry Division, everyone also knows that they are unable to fly this time.

Having rejected the call of the 1st Cavalry Division, the 627th Regiment began to build fortifications, and could not sit still in any case. Just as they were building fortifications, Zhang Chengde, commander of the First Cavalry Division, also made up his mind to prepare for a strong attack, and after arranging the offensive route, the Northeast Army once again pointed its guns at his comrades.

Because the 627th Regiment had the heart of death, the attack of the First Cavalry Division was not smooth at the beginning, and it lost a lot of men and horses, so angry that Zhang Chengde finally took out all the hole cards, and finally took the 627th Regiment with several times the strength of the 627th Regiment.

After taking the position of the 627 Regiment, Zhang Chengde asked someone to bring Wan Yi, the commander of the 627 Regiment, to him, but there was no one in the middle of the ring, and he was about to curse, and the correspondent who went to pass the word had already rushed back, and there were four or five soldiers with him, carrying a bloodstained stretcher.

After seeing that it was Wan Yi on the stretcher, Zhang Chengde jumped up angrily, pointed at the person carrying the stretcher and scolded: "What's going on?" Didn't I order that you weren't allowed to hurt Commander Wan Yi before? How dare you hurt him? ”

"Division, Commander Wan was not injured by us, I heard from the brothers who were captured in the 627th Regiment that Commander Wan was seriously injured earlier, and it was not caused by fighting with us at all."

"Wan Yi was injured before?" Zhang Chengde first asked, and then saw that Wan Yi was covered with blood, but don't die at this time, he can't explain to the young marshal at that time, so he asked, "How is Commander Wan's injury?" Can you support meeting the young marshal? ”

"Yes, yes, but Captain Wan is so seriously injured, it's best to deal with it first."

"Then you guys hurry up and deal with it, what are you doing standing now?"

"Master, we don't have enough medicine."

"Not enough medicine?" In a hurry, Zhang Chengde forgot about the current situation of the Northeast Army, not to mention medicine, even the food was eaten for the next meal, and there was no guarantee at all.

However, Wan Yi is dying now, and if he doesn't hurry back, he can't explain it to the young marshal, so he has to ask: "Where can I get medicine?" Even when it is pants, you have to buy medicine back to save people. ”

"I'm afraid that only the Datong Party has enough medicines in the northwest region, should we go to them for help?"

Although Zhang Xueliang has always wanted to coordinate the cooperation between the Northeast Army and the Datong Party, and the Northeast Army also wants to use the strength of the Datong Party to fight back to the Northeast, in fact, there is still a lot of mustard between the officers and men of the two armies.

If it was usual, if someone dared to mention the Datong Party in front of Zhang Chengde, he would have been kicked by Zhang Chengde a long time ago, but at this time, the matter is important, and Zhang Chengde is not so particular, and arranges people to contact the Datong Party to borrow medicine.

After the person who borrowed the medicine left, Zhang Chengde did not stay, and after the two regiments watched the prisoners of the 627th regiment, they took the rest of the troops to prepare to bring Wan Yi back to Zhang Xueliang, and in any case, they had to send people to Zhang Xueliang before Wan Yi died.

After rushing back to Zhang Xueliang's line, no one expected that Wan Yi, who was captured, was already dying, Zhang Xueliang didn't know what to do, and pointed to Zhang Chengde who sent people over and scolded: "Zhang Chengde, what are you doing?" Lao Tzu's order is to ask you to arrest people, not to tell you to kill people. It's good for you, your 1st Cavalry Division and 627th Regiment have suffered a lot of casualties, and even Wan Yi was seriously injured and dying, don't you, the commander of the cavalry division, want to go on? ”

"The young marshal is angry, Commander Wan was not injured by our first cavalry division, and he also obeys the orders of the young marshal and will never fire at his brother troops until he has to. When catching up with the 627th Regiment, the lowly brothers did not listen at all, and directly shot and killed many of the lowly subordinates. After the persuasion was fruitless, the lowly official had no choice but to use force. After losing so many brothers in the rush, Zhang Chengde had long understood that the young marshal would definitely scold, and slowly said the set of words he had prepared before.

Although Zhang Xueliang was very angry, he would not really scold Zhang Chengde, after listening to his explanation, he passed him over temporarily, and then asked: "You said that Wan Yi was not injured by you, what is going on?" ”

"The specific situation is not clear, when the subordinates of the humble position found Commander Wan, Commander Wan was already seriously injured and lying on a stretcher, and I heard the prisoners of the 627th Regiment say that it seems that he was injured before, as for how he was injured, the humble position is not clear." Zhang Chengde cautiously explained.

When Zhang Chengde explained, Zhang Xueliang also stepped forward to check Wan Yi's injury, and saw that Wan Yi was covered in blood and his face was extremely pale, so he couldn't help but worry: "Wan Yi won't be seriously injured, right?" ”

"Don't worry, the young marshal has carefully examined Commander Wan's injuries along the way, and there is no danger for the time being, and when the medicine is available, it will be able to be treated urgently."

"Medicines? Is there no medicine in the army? ”

"Young marshal, we can't even guarantee enough food now, where can we get the spare money to buy medicine?"

Speaking of the current situation of the Northeast Army, Zhang Xueliang couldn't help but sigh again, the situation has reached this state, and the Shaozhuang faction and the veteran faction are still making internal contradictions, which really makes him very disappointed.

Just when Zhang Xueliang lamented the current situation, Wu Keren, the commander of the 117th Division who heard the news, hurriedly came, and began to shout from afar: "Where is that kid Wan Yi?" Lao Tzu wants to personally avenge our military seat. ”

"Master Wu, before the truth of the matter is clarified, it's better not to shout and kill casually?" Following Wu Keren's anxious voice came another calmer voice, which was none other than He Zhuguo, the commander of the 57th Army.

The two came together, and after seeing Zhang Xueliang, who turned his eyes to them, they saluted one after another, and then asked, "Young marshal, where is Wan Yiren?" ”

Zhang Xueliang didn't answer the two, but turned his head to signal, and the two found that there was a seriously injured man lying around the corner, not Wan Yi.

Seeing Wan Yi like this, the two of them were anxious at the moment, one nervously asked what was going on, who beat Wan Yi like this, and the other had the opposite attitude, and directly scolded how could Wan Yi be so cheap, he should be cut by a thousand knives.

The opposite words came out, and the two immediately got up, Zhang Xueliang had to stand up and pull the two apart and said: "Now Wan Yi is seriously injured and unconscious, and he can't ask anything if he wants to, and the matter of questioning and interrogation can wait until later, and it is important to treat him first." ”

Seeing Wan Yi, Wu Keren wanted to kill him with his own hands, but with Zhang Xueliang in front of him, he didn't want to act recklessly, so he had to obediently obey Zhang Xueliang's words and wait for Wan Yi to wake up from a coma.

At this time, the people who went to the Datong Party to ask for medicine finally came back, and they didn't know the kindness of the Datong Party, not only did they not embarrass the people who asked for medicine, but they also sent a few more doctors to help.

When Wan Yi was injured, Wu Keren didn't want to stop, and after hearing that the First Cavalry Division had captured a lot of prisoners of the 627th Regiment, he asked Zhang Xueliang to summon all the prisoners and Wan Yi's personal guards, because there were many Wan Yi's personal guards in it at the time of the incident.

Zhang Xueliang felt that he might be able to ask some useful information in this way, so he asked Zhang Chengde to bring everyone over, but unexpectedly, Wan Yi's personal guards were almost dead, and the rest were either seriously injured or unconscious, and the only one who was awake also had some problems with his brain, which seemed to be related to the head being grazed by a stray bullet.

Despite this, Zhang Xueliang and the others patiently questioned the only person who was still sober, but the information they finally came to surprised the three of them very much, and the matter turned out to be the head of the Shaozhuang faction.

After hearing that it was the Shaozhuang faction, Wu Keren and He Zhuguo both jumped up violently, clamoring for the Shaozhuang faction to pay for their blood debts.

Seeing their angry appearances, although Zhang Xueliang was equally shocked, he still didn't want the contradiction between the Shaozhuang faction and the veteran faction to expand, and the conflict between the 67th Army and the 57th Army occurred, and he really didn't want to see the Northeast Army continue to shed blood.

Therefore, Zhang Xueliang stopped Wu Keren and He Zhuguo as soon as possible and said: "Commander He, Master Wu, although the matter may be related to the Shaozhuang faction, before the truth of the matter is clarified, don't be too impulsive. ”

"Young Marshal, this is not a matter of our impulsiveness, but the lawlessness of the Young Zhuang faction, today they killed our military seat, will they be replaced by other military commanders tomorrow?" Wu Keren shook his head and said, he didn't want to listen to Zhang Xueliang's reassurance at all.

"Master Wu, are you calm enough now? The little soldier didn't say which commander the Shaozhuang faction wanted to kill, but just said that he borrowed troops from the 627 regiment to save the Shaozhuang faction personnel who had been imprisoned before. Zhang Xueliang continued to reassure.

"Saving people? Why did they want to kill our military seat to save people, and the people were not captured by our military seat, but by the 53rd Army. ”

"In any case, we must be calm now, and when the matter is clear, I will deal with it impartially, and no guilty person can escape." In desperation, Zhang Xueliang finally had to say strongly.

After forcibly suppressing He Zhuguo and Wu Keren, Zhang Xueliang then sent someone to find Miao Jianqiu, the matter involved the head of the Shaozhuang faction, and he didn't know what he was doing now, and he disappeared for half a day.

On the other side, Miao Jianqiu and the others have been paying attention to the development of the matter, and seeing that Wan Yi and Qi Qinwei were all arrested, they were already prepared for the fact that the matter would implicate the Shaozhuang faction, but what made them strange was that among the captured personnel of the 627th Regiment, Ying Detian was not seen, and they didn't know where he had fled.

After receiving Zhang Xueliang's order, Miao Jianqiu rushed to Zhang Xueliang's line without stopping for a moment, and when he entered, he was greeted by a pair of sharp eyes, as if he was being targeted by a group of fierce beasts, which made Miao Jianqiu feel a chill behind him.

Even so, Miao Jianqiu still greeted him calmly, and before he could greet Zhang Xueliang, He Zhuguo had already spoken first: "Secretary Wu, your young Zhuang faction is so powerful, digging the corners of the wall and digging up my 109th Division." ”

Although Miao Jianqiu knew what He Zhuguo was talking about, he still pretended not to know and asked, "What does Chief He mean?" ”

"What do you mean? Your Shaozhuang faction colluded with Wan Yi of the 627th Regiment to assassinate our Commander Wang Yizhe, intending to provoke internal contradictions in the Northeast Army, do you still want to continue to pretend to be stupid? It was Wu Keren who answered Miao Jianqiu, he was preconceived, he didn't give Miao Jianqiu any chance to explain at all, and he named the Shaozhuang faction as a traitor who intended to provoke internal contradictions.

"Master Wu, although the Shaozhuang faction is at odds with the patriarchal faction, the main difference is still on the issue of resistance. Why do we stir up internal contradictions for no reason, and is there any benefit to this confrontation? Miao Jianqiu firmly grasped the main point and grasped the righteousness of resistance.

"Resist, resist? You are shouting all day long, is it so easy to defeat Xiao Yue? When it came to the matter of resistance, the generals of the Northeast Army present couldn't help but be angry, which was the biggest shame in their lives.

"Relying on our Northeast Army alone, it is of course very difficult to defeat the little devils, but the Datong Party's proposition is the same as ours, and it is also based on resisting and saving the country, and with their strength, we will definitely be able to fight back to the Northeast." Miao Jianqiu took the opportunity to say.

"So in order to curry favor with your new master, you Shaozhuang faction wants to bring down our Northeast Army internally, so that the Datong Party can absorb us, right?" Wu Keren said sneeringly.

"Master Wu, what you said is a bit of a curse, right? We followed the young marshal from birth to death, how could we abandon the young marshal and ignore it, and the soldiers of the Northeast Army are all their own brothers, and they have been dependent on each other for all these years, we are wolves, and it is impossible to destroy the unity of our brothers. In the face of Wu Keren's cynicism, Miao Jianqiu fought back.

"Hehe, you also admit that you are wolf-hearted? A group of people eat things inside and outside, and return our army's orders. As he spoke, Wu Keren had already pulled out his pistol and aimed it at Miao Jianqiu.

Although Zhang Xueliang on the side did not speak, he kept paying attention to the changes in the field, and found that Wu Keren pulled out his gun in front of him again, so angry that he was angry, and immediately dropped the teacup in his hand and shouted: "Noisy and noisy, can this quarrel solve the problem?" And you, Wu Keren, if you dare to pull out a gun in front of me again, get out of me immediately, and the commander of the 117th Division will not have to be the commander. ”

Seeing that Zhang Xueliang was angry, everyone had to put away their emotions, and the situation suddenly stabilized a lot for the time being.

After the tense atmosphere eased, Zhang Xueliang asked Miao Jianqiu if he had borrowed troops from Wan Yi, Miao Jianqiu saw that Wan Yi was seriously injured and did not wake up, and Ying Detian did not catch it, so he flatly denied it at the moment, saying that he had indeed communicated with many low-level officers in order to resist the problem, but he did not borrow troops from anyone.

Seeing that Miao Jianqiu flatly denied it, Wu Keren couldn't help but be angry, jumped out and scolded, Wan Yi's personal guards personally admitted that the Shaozhuang faction had borrowed troops from their regiment commander to save people, and now he flatly denied it, obviously shirking responsibility.

Miao Jianqiu said that he did have the idea of saving people, and he also found the young marshal to reason for this, and was finally persuaded by the young marshal to go back, and the matter ended here.

At this time, Wan Fulin, the commander of the 53rd Army, who had just arrived, stood up and said that not long before the incident, the detainees had been rescued by Wan Yi and the Shaozhuang faction, and the guards had absconded in fear of crime and had just been arrested by his personal guards.

Subsequently, Wan Fulin brought the absconding guards over, and after Zhang Xueliang inquired, the guards really stammered and said that it was indeed a group of people who came to rescue everyone.

Hearing this, Wu Keren jumped out again, pointed at Miao Jianqiu is scolding, and said that the facts are right in front of you, what else do you young Zhuang faction have to quibble.

With Wu Keren's attack, all the firepower of the veteran faction was concentrated on Miao Jianqiu, and seeing that it could not be refuted, Miao Jianqiu had to pretend as if he remembered something and said that the Shaozhuang faction had never borrowed troops from anyone, and would never assassinate Commander Wang Yizhe, but before that, there were indeed people in the Shaozhuang faction who wanted to forcibly save people, and they never saw that person again after the incident.

Although Wu Keren and the others didn't believe what Miao Jianqiu said, they still asked who was missing, and Miao Jianqiu had no choice but to give Ying Detian out.

Despite this, the patriarchal faction did not want to let go of the Shaozhuang faction, and suggested to Zhang Xueliang that all the positions of the Shaozhuang faction be cancelled, and they would all be imprisoned for the time being, and then decide how to deal with it together after Ying Detian was arrested and brought to justice.

Seeing that the patriarchal faction wanted to wipe out the Shaozhuang faction, Zhang Xueliang naturally didn't do it, according to Miao Jianqiu's words, the matter was done by Ying Detian alone, and Ying Detian alone took care of it, and he couldn't implicate others casually.

Regarding Zhang Xueliang's approach, the veteran faction naturally did not do it, and shouted that the young marshal was conniving at his subordinates, and he didn't care about them at all The old man who followed the boss to fight the world, rather than waiting to be wiped out by the Shaozhuang faction in the future, it was better for Zhang Xueliang to remove them from their military positions now and let them go home for the elderly.

Most of the people in the veteran faction chose to be scoundrels, but Liu Duoquan, the commander of the 105th Division, was determined to avenge Wang Yizhe, as Wang Yizhe's close friend, when he heard the news of Wang Yizhe's murder, he was so angry that he immediately mobilized his troops to avenge Wang Yizhe, but he was stopped by Zhang Xueliang at the first time.

Now that he understands that the matter is related to the Shaozhuang faction, and after the goal is clear, Liu Duoquan's desire to take revenge is even more urgent, no matter what, he wants the Shaozhuang faction to pay for his blood debts, and he doesn't even listen to Zhang Xueliang's orders.

After getting rid of Zhang Xueliang and rushing back to the army, Liu Duoquan began to search for members of the Shaozhuang faction, and the Shaozhuang faction also began to gather the troops they could control in order to save their lives, and a new internal massacre was about to happen again.

In this case, Zhang Xueliang turned his attention to other army commanders and division commanders for help, but most of them pretended not to see it, and acquiesced in Liu Duoquan's behavior, when they found out that the Shaozhuang faction had made their troops look like funnels, they were all wary of the Shaozhuang faction, and if they didn't deal with the Shaozhuang faction as soon as possible, it would become their biggest crisis in the future.

In the blink of an eye, Zhang Xuehao seemed to have become a loner, leaving only a little personal guard under his command, and wanted to quell this storm, but he had more than enough strength and couldn't help but look up to the sky and sigh, is the Northeast Army going to be destroyed again.
