Chapter 242: The Earthquake of Chongqing and the Trial of the Traitors
The first target plane, Chongqing, Sichuan Province, Yanhuang Continent.
"Outside the nickname, Nanjing was liberated, Shanghai was recovered, and the Japanese were beaten and fled!" Because the word "red party" is taboo in Chongqing, the newspaper boys on the road never mention the word "red party," but only focus on reporting on the incident in which Nanjing and Shanghai were recovered and the Japanese escaped like lost dogs.
"What? It's true!? ”
"Quick, give me one!"
"Give me a copy too!"
"And me!"
Because the news in the newspaper was so shocking and exciting, everyone walking by the road unconsciously stopped, took out a thick stack of fiat currency, and bought the latest morning newspaper of the day.
Zengjiayan Mansion (also known as "Yaolu").
In a European-style living room on the second floor, Chairman Chiang was discussing the latest military situation and the future of the party-state with several important party ministers and capable subordinates.
"According to the confirmation of our multiple intelligence lines, the Red Party has basically captured Nanjing and Shanghai yesterday. In addition, the remnants of the Japanese troops defending Jiangsu and Fujian are retreating to the coastal ports, seizing all the ships and preparing to flee to the treasure island. Dai Li, who was in charge of the Bald Party's intelligence work, reported carefully.
"Did the Red Party really fight the Yangtze River? Also recovered Nanjing and Shanghai? Isn't the Yangtze River defense line of the little devil impregnable? How does it look like a paper sieve? Zhang Zhizhong, head of the Political Department of the Military Commission of the Nationalist Government and secretary general of the Three People's Youth League, who was sitting on the right of his hand, was a little incredulous.
"Cough~~" Hearing Zhang Zhizhong say the word "recovery", Chen Cheng, who was sitting next to him, pretended to cough as a reminder.
"Now is the national crisis, and the future of the party and the state is uncertain~~" At this time, Chairman Jiang did not care too much about the taboos of his words, but sighed and said with great feeling.
"Commission, don't be pessimistic, although our counteroffensive strength is insufficient, but with the natural danger of Sichuan's terrain, it is more than enough to stick to the southwest." Chen Cheng comforted.
"Resignation, do we have the ability to send troops to the vacuum of power after the withdrawal of the Japanese invaders?" Although he was very clear about the number of pounds and taels of his army, Chairman Jiang still asked without giving up.
"Bench, please forgive me for speaking bluntly." Chen Cheng saw that the old man's enthusiasm for occupying the territory was still undiminished at this time, and hurriedly persuaded him: "We now have more than 1.5 million troops, but there are many of them who eat empty salaries. According to humble estimates, the actual strength of the army was only about 1 million. In addition to the 200,000 elite troops of Hu Zongnan deployed to prevent the Qinghai Red Party troops from moving south to Sichuan, there are also 300,000 mobile troops that can be used. Most of the rest are actually the same as the militias. Weapons, equipment, and training are far from perfect. We now have the righteousness of the central government, but the red bandits have been calling for many years and have not listened to the propaganda. Once the reception operation is blocked, the Red Party turns its face and fires, and the troops sent have gone but not returned, then" Speaking of this, Chen Cheng was silent.
"But if we continue to be here, we will only wait for death!" Zhang Zhizhong answered.
"If you don't disperse your forces, with Sichuan's geographical advantages, and defend desperately, you still have the confidence to block the footsteps of the red bandits. But it's just a block. But if you lose these hundreds of thousands of battleable soldiers, you will really have no skills to recover. ”
"Chairman, is there really no hope for the Star-Spangled Banner?" Zhang Qun, the head of the Department of Political Science, who was sitting on the other side of the lower hand, asked.
In the entire bald Jiang dynasty, it can actually be roughly divided into three factions: the Whampoa department and the political science department; Needless to say, the first one is that Jiang Bald's reliance on starting and holding power, although the internal forces and groups are fighting each other, they all belong to the internal contradictions of the Whampoa faction, and in the event of a crisis, there is still no doubt that the leaders of the department are Chen Guofu and Chen Lifu, who are the nephews of Chen Qimei (one of the enlighteners of the democratic revolution), and Chen Qimei is the sworn brother of Jiang, which can also be seen from the nepotism within the Bald Party. Chen Guofu Chen Lifu basically controlled the organizational power of the bald party, the so-called "Chen family party of the Jiang dynasty"! It can be said that the military power belongs to Jiang Bald, the party and government; In the end, the Department of Political Science is the weakest, but because the Department of Political Science is equivalent to Jiang Bald's think tank, it can directly influence Jiang Bald's principles and policies. In addition, Zhang Qunyin is also Jiang Bald's classmate studying in the Japanese Kou, and the two have a very close relationship, and they are the descendants of the lineage, so they don't have to worry too much about talking, and they can even directly accuse Jiang of someone.
"Difficult, difficult!" When Chairman Chiang saw that it was Zhang Qunfa who was asking, he sighed, and without much embellishment, he spoke directly: "I didn't see Roosevelt himself, and they sent a vice president to receive him." However, the negotiations were also very difficult. Madame, she had done her best, but only in exchange for more promises of military supplies. Stars and Stripes rejected direct military intervention and threats of force against the Red Party. ”
"What about sending a special envoy to act as an intermediary to coordinate between our party and the Red Party?" Zhang Qun asked unrelentingly.
"They said they would think about it, but it would take time." Chairman Jiang replied in a low voice.
"Commission, I have received news that now the Star-Spangled Banner needs the support of the Red Bandit-occupied area due to the bombing of the Japanese mainland, which is probably one of the main reasons why the Star-Spangled Banner does not want to offend them for the time being." Dai Li, who was standing next to Jiang, added.
"That is to say, for the time being, we can only rely on ourselves~~" Zhang Qun nodded slowly, then was silent for more than ten seconds, sighed, and continued: "Chairman, maybe we really need to consider the possibility of establishing a coalition government and seeking a coalition government with the red bandits." ”
When the people in the room heard this, their eyes flashed, and then they became silent with a tacit understanding. Chairman Jiang, who was sitting on the main seat, did not speak, but quietly looked at a painting on the wall, and his thoughts began to drift away.
At the same time, the streets of Nanjing after liberation.
At this time, the open-top trucks slowly drove along the main roads in the city, they planned to circle the city, and there were a number of "famous" big traitors tied to the front trucks, they were: Wang Jingwei Mei Siping, the puppet minister of industry and commerce of the Republic of China government, Zhou Xuechang, the puppet mayor of Nanjing, Li Shengwu, the puppet minister of administration, Ling Xiao, the puppet minister of the navy, Peng Nian, the puppet minister of social welfare, and Guo Xiufeng, the puppet deputy minister of propaganda, and other 23 people.
On the trucks behind them are mostly underworld forces who have been helping the Japanese army all the year round to fight for the tigers and flesh and bones, and they usually do countless evils among the people, and they have a lot of grievances, and the people are eager to tear down their bones and eat their flesh, so it is not enough to be angry if they are not killed.
Before the liberation of Nanjing, these people relied on the fact that there were people behind them and guns in their hands, and they didn't care about the hatred of the people. After liberating Nanjing and restoring public order in Nanjing, the Red Party immediately complied with the will of the people and arrested all of them; after interrogation, they confirmed that the identities of the criminals were correct, and they were all sentenced to death and immediately executed, and paraded through the streets.
In order to prevent the onlookers from getting emotional and acting excessively, there were armed soldiers on both sides of the truck convoy to guard them, and even so, the people of Nanjing, who had accumulated indignation and anger in their chests for many years, still threw stones and turned their heads as best they could to vent their anger in their hearts.
"Punish traitors severely!"
"Shoot the dog traitor!"
"Kill them and avenge my family!"
"Kill, kill, kill!"
As time went on, the number of people watching the parade trucks on both sides of the road grew. Because the Red Party fighters were in charge of the vigilance, they did not rush to the side of the car, but shouted slogans loudly, and at the same time listened attentively to the jeep walking in front, and the traitor charges and sentencing standards played through loudspeakers:
The death penalty is imposed on the puppet governor and above, the death penalty for the puppet minister and above, the death penalty for the puppet deputy governor and the imprisonment for the puppet bureau chief is 7 to 15 years; Anyone who collaborates with the enemy shall be sentenced to 3 to 5 years in prison, but at the same time, those who have a civil blood debt in their hands shall be sentenced to death and executed immediately.
At 12:30 p.m., the execution took place: an open field with its back against a stone wall, where one convict after another was dragged.
Because many traitors have been in high positions for a long time, they have not known about the suffering of the people for many years, let alone facing the scene of being executed. Therefore, many people who are overly frightened have already been incontinent and crying.
"I'm guilty, I'm guilty, please let me go, give me a chance to make amends!"
"I don't want to die, I don't want to die, I beg you, let me go, let me go!"
"I was forced, I didn't betray the country, I didn't betray the country!"
"I am wronged, I am enduring humiliation and burden, I am not a traitor!"
In response to these cries and pleas, the officers and soldiers were not affected in any way, and they had long since trained their iron hearts from the battlefield. What's more, each of them has hands stained with the blood and grievances of ordinary people:
Mei Siping, a native of Yongjia, Zhejiang, graduated from the Department of Political Science of Peking University. He used to be a professor at the Central University of the Bald Party and the Central Political School, and a member of the Central Legal Committee. In 1938, he infiltrated Shanghai with Gao Zongwu to discuss with the representatives of the Japanese Invaders the specific conditions and methods for Wang Jingwei to defect to the enemy and treason. Later, he reached an agreement with Gao Zongwu and the Japanese in Shanghai "Chongguangtang", and signed the "Record of the Japan-China Agreement" and the "Memorandum of Understanding on the Record of the Japan-China Agreement". The evidence of defection and treason to the enemy is conclusive, and he is now sentenced to death and immediately executed.
Zhou Xuechang, the word Zhihou, Hebei Anxin. Graduated from Peking University and Guangdong University. Since 1925, he has served as a political instructor at the Whampoa Military Academy, director of the Political Department of the Second Division of the Eastern Route Army of the Northern Expedition of the National Revolutionary Army, secretary general and director of the Political Department of the Kuomintang Party Member Volunteer Corps, and an officer of the Central Party Department of the Kuomintang. In the spring of 1939, he attached himself to Wang's puppet regime, surrendered to the Japanese invaders, and betrayed the country
Tian Wenhai, the leader of the Nanjing Scorpion Gang, has been preying on the common people for many years, bullying men and women, and doing all kinds of evil, and has raped and killed no less than 70 women from good families.
It took more than 20 minutes for the chief executive to announce the crimes of dozens of death row prisoners, only to hear the overwhelming sound of "kill him", "kill him", "kill kill", "kill kill" in all directions!
"Fire!"
"Smack, smack, smack!" As the soldiers pulled the trigger in turn, dozens of traitors, lackeys, and bullies fell to the ground at the same time, and finally got the punishment they deserved.
From 5 January to 7 January, more than 3,000 traitors, lackeys, and bullies with conclusive evidence were shot dead in Nanjing, Shanghai, and other places.
Nanjing 10,000 meters in the air.
"Okay, after watching the traitor being punished, we should also go!" Wang Fan said lightly.
"Oh? What do you want? Yadi was a little confused.
"Now that the traitors have been duly punished, those traitors in the Central Soviet Region back then can't let them go unpunished." Wang Fan gritted his back molars and snorted.
