Chapter 396: Conspiracy
Zhou Guansheng shook his head and said, "Chairman, I still mean this, the New Fourth Army is not unwilling to obey the government's orders, but we can't obey the order, and Chairman of the Committee, the Japanese army is constantly increasing its troops in Central China, at this time, it is really appropriate to transfer the New Fourth Army with excellent combat strength to North China?" If the Japanese army had been given a chance, the situation that we had managed to open up behind enemy lines in Central China would have come to naught. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć infoI hope the chairman will think about it more, I think that's it for today, I'll take my leave first. ā
Jiang intermediary naturally didn't want Zhou Guansheng to leave like this, as long as Zhou Guansheng went back, he would definitely know about Huangqiao, but there was no reason, so he could only talk for a while, and finally watched Zhou Guansheng walk out of the office helplessly.
As soon as Zhou Guansheng returned to the Red Party office, he got the news of Huangqiao, he shook his head with a smile and said, "I saw the way Jiang Intermediary and Dai Li talked, and I guessed what had happened, okay, now we can gain a firm foothold in public opinion." I'm going to write an article, get it out right away, and make sure everyone knows that we're victims! ā
On the other side, Jiang Zheng looked at the detailed battle report, gritted his teeth angrily, looked at the people in front of him and said, "Look at it, Han Deqin lost two more regiments, how many regiments can he lose?" ā
Bai Chongxi looked at the battle report and said, "Chairman of the Committee, I think that no matter what method we use to deal with the New Fourth Army, there is an important premise first, that is, we can win the New Fourth Army, otherwise, in the hearts of the New Fourth Army and Yan'an, that is, we are begging for mercy, no matter what conditions we propose, they think it can be raised higher!"
And if we win the New Fourth Army, no matter whether it is big or small, then the psychology of both of us will undergo tremendous changes, and Yan'an will sincerely negotiate with us to resolve the issue in order to retain the strength of the New Fourth Army.
The Huangqiao incident may not be an opportunity, after all, the Huangqiao is Han Deqin's defense area, no matter what aspect it says, the New Fourth Army should withdraw, we can give a deadline, if the New Fourth Army does not retreat, it will be considered a violation of military orders, and it can naturally attack! ā
Jiang intermediary nodded and said, "Reasonable!" So what do you mean? ā
He Yingqin said: "Chairman, I think there is another problem this time that the various armies in Jiangsu do not coordinate with each other, like this time, the New Fourth Army passed through Taizhou, and Li Mingyang can completely stop the New Fourth Army from advancing, even if the New Fourth Army did not exchange fire with our army at that time, when the New Fourth Army and Han Deqin's department exchanged fire, the Taizhou Army should also send troops to help Han Deqin, but the result from beginning to end, Han Deqin has always fought alone. How can this be undefeated? You must know that in Jiangsu, there are also tax police forces, as well as the Loyal National Salvation Army, these are the forces of our party-state, if they do not assist each other, but fight separately, whether it is against the New Fourth Army or against the Japanese invaders, the only outcome is to be broken by each other! ā
Jiang intermediary snorted and said to Chen Bui, "Write it down!" If the New Fourth Army does not obey the military order, it will order Han Deqin and Li Mingyang, the Tax Police Corps, the Loyal National Salvation Army and other units to jointly attack the New Fourth Army Headquarters in Huangqiao, and all troops will obey the command of Han Deqin, and if anyone who does not obey, Han Deqin has the right to kill him in battle!
The purpose of this battle is to punish the New Fourth Army for disobeying military orders, the battle line can only be limited to the Huangqiao area, once the New Fourth Army withdraws from the Yellow Bridge, it cannot be pursued, and the captured officers and soldiers cannot be persecuted, all of them will be imprisoned, and they will be sent down! ā
After Chen Bui finished writing, he asked again, "Commission, is this order a secret telegram or?" ā
Jiang Intermediary thought for a while and said, "Only give Han Deqin one person, tell him, I gave him the sword of Shang Fang, whether he can win or not depends on himself." ā
-- Han Deqin Department
Han Deqin looked at the military order with the three big characters of Jiang Intermediary written on it, laughed excitedly, and Weng Da asked next to him, "Chairman, what does it mean that this commission is only issued to us?" ā
Han Deqin looked at Weng Da and said, "The commission is very clear, some people in Jiangsu are disobedient, and some people will not be able to see if they send a telegram order, so they want us to go one by one, prepare immediately, and we will set off immediately." ā
Onda asked, "Where are we going?" ā
Han Deqin said with a complicated face: "Taizhou! ā
-- Taizhou
Li Mingyang looked at the book, nodded again and again, and said to Li Changjiang, who was wiping his gun next to him, "Not bad, really good, it makes sense that the New Fourth Army can win the battle, you look at their infantry discipline and military discipline points, as well as these civil affairs views, they are all very insightful, I think we must also learn it." ā
Li Changjiang stood up and said, "Big brother, this is all a set of the Red Party, it's not appropriate for us to learn." ā
Li Ming raised his face and said, "What's inappropriate?" I think it's a good fit! If it's good, just learn it, what kind of red party and white party, just use it! ā
At this time, a guard came in and said, "Report, Chairman Han's telegram." ā
Li Mingyang took it and looked at it, and said with a smile, "Ah, this Han Deqin is really in a hurry, and he actually asked us to meet outside the city." ā
Li Changjiang asked, "Then shall we go or not?" ā
Li Mingyang touched his chin and said, "This New Fourth Army is true to its word, after Huangqiao is taken, Guo Cun will return it to us, and pay us a sum of money and weapons and ammunition, we will go, but we will not agree to anything!" ā
-- Outside Taizhou
Li Mingyang saw the menacing Han Deqin from afar, he snorted, stood on the horse, did not come down, arched his hand and said, "Chairman Han, don't come to harm, why did you suddenly come to my Taizhou." ā
Han Deqin pointed at his horse whip and said, "Li Mingyang, don't pretend to be confused, let me ask you, how did the New Fourth Army in Huangqiao come about?" Why did they pass by your Taizhou defense area, and you didn't stop it, and you didn't report it? ā
Li Mingyang looked at the sky and pretended to be strange and said, "I said, Chairman Han, this New Fourth Army is a serious national army, and this Chinese army is marching on Chinese soil, why should I stop it?" Besides, I, Li Mingyang, just reported it to Chief Gu, what kind of thing are you! As he spoke, he coughed, spat on the ground, and looked at Han Deqin with disdain, and Han Deqin's whole face turned red.
"I, Deloitte, am the chairman of Jiangsu Province! These large and small troops in Jiangsu should be under my jurisdiction, shouldn't you report to me? Moreover, the chairman of the committee repeatedly ordered that it was forbidden to leave the area under the jurisdiction of the army without an order, and the New Fourth Army ignored the military order, and that was the rebels! Shouldn't you stop the rebels from crossing the border? ā
As he spoke, Han Deqin shouted, "Do you believe it or not, I sent a telegram to Chongqing, and I will ask for your head!" ā
Li Changjiang heard it next to him, and hurriedly said with a haha, "Misunderstanding, misunderstanding, Chairman Han, my eldest brother has such a stinky temper, so, what do you say, we will listen to the order." ā
Li Mingyang said disrespectfully, "If I want the Taizhou army to move, I have to get the military order of the chairman!" ā
Han Deqin snorted and took out a military order and said, "This is a military order written by the chairman himself, you can see it clearly, repel the offended rebels, all troops, listen to my command Han Deqin, Li Mingyang, you say it yourself!" Do you want to listen to Chongqing or Yan'an? ā
Li Mingyang saw it, and hurriedly dismounted and said, "Li Mingyang obeys the orders of the chairman."
Waiting for Han Deqin to leave, Li Changjiang asked, "Big brother, are we really going to attack the New Fourth Army?" ā
Li Mingyang shook his head and said, "The New Fourth Army is strong and strong, and even the Japanese army can take down Nanchang, where can Han Deqin deal with, I am not optimistic about this battle." ā
Li Changjiang listened to the words in his mouth again and again, and couldn't help but be very worried, since the last time he went to the official for bullying the villagers, he was never willing to return to civilian life, at this time, seeing that Li Mingyang was unwilling to help Han Deqin, first, he was worried that Chongqing would punish the crime when the time came, and second, he was worried that Li Mingyang would finally defect to the Red Party, but he knew very well that people like himself would be killed sooner or later if they went to the Red Party.
Li Changjiang touched the golden pen left by Mr. Rong in his pocket and slowly made up his mind.
-- A tavern in Taizhou City
Li Changjiang walked to the counter, took out a golden pen and said, "I'm here to find Mr. Rong." ā
When the shopkeeper saw it, he immediately said, "Ah, it's you, Mr. Rong has been waiting for a long time, please come with me." ā
Saying that, the shopkeeper took Li Changjiang into a room, and Mr. Rong, who was drinking tea, saw Li Changjiang and immediately said excitedly, "General Li, you made me wait so hard, have you finally figured it out?" ā
Li Changjiang didn't sit down, stood aside and said, "Mr. Rong, I didn't come to join you, I just want to help my eldest brother and prevent my eldest brother from going the wrong way, let me ask you, how much help can you give me?" ā
Mr. Rong shook his head and said, "As much as you want, I will give you as much as you want." ā
Li Changjiang sat down, patted the table and said, "Okay!" Then I want 10,000 weapons and 1 million oceans, did you give them? ā
Mr. Rong almost sprayed Li Changjiang in the face, and he said helplessly, "General Li, don't be joking, I will give you what you want, and you have to dare to ask for it." ā
Li Changjiang said solemnly, "I want it now, I'm not joking with you." ā
Mr. Rong thought for a moment and said, "Can you tell me what happened?" What do you want these things to do, even if Mr. Wang appreciates you, there must be a reason, right? ā
Li Changjiang sighed and said, "Han Deqin was ordered by Chairman Jiang of Chongqing, ready to mobilize troops and horses, besiege the New Fourth Army, my eldest brother and Han Deqin are not in harmony, and secondly, we have not had much contradiction with the New Fourth Army, and the matter of Guocun has been solved well, so we are ready to surround but not fight, but I don't think so, this is from the public, this is the order of the chairman, if we don't implement it, we will disobey the military order, and sooner or later we will be cleaned up by the chairman, from selfishness, we and the Red Party are not all the way after all, this Jiangsu is so big, the Red Party is going to take over the world, It's better to strike first, so I'm going to collude with some people in the army, carry my eldest brother behind my back, and send troops to attack the New Fourth Army!
These weapons are prepared to avoid managing logistics by my brother's henchmen, and the money is used to stabilize the morale of the army. ā
Saying that, Li Changjiang looked at Mr. Rong and said, "What I said is true, and I'm not afraid that you will know, although we will fight with the New Fourth Army, at least half of the men and horses of my Taizhou Army will face you!" If you dare to make a move, my eldest brother and I will unite with the New Fourth Army and drive you down the Yangtze River! ā
Mr. Rong said haha: "It's serious! It's serious!! We are building a country for peace, and we are all Chinese, where is there a reason to attack each other, well, you wait for me for three days, within three days, I will definitely reply to you! ā
-- Nanjing
"Haha, wow, wow!!" Seishiro Itagaki looked at the secret electricity, patted his thigh and smiled.
Nishio ate sashimi, looked at Seishiro Itagaki and said, "What good happened?" ā
Itagaki Seishiro handed the telegram to Nishio and said, "The secret telegram from Taizhou, Han Deqin got an order from Chongqing, ready to mobilize all the forces of Jiangsu, and besiege the New Fourth Army troops now in Huangqiao, this is great, the current guards of Huangqiao are Chen Yi and Su Yu, these two are the main force in the New Fourth Army, and they are veterans, and as far as I know, Mao Yongzhi of Yan'an attaches great importance to Chen Yi, if these two die, the Red Party and the White Party will definitely fight!" ā
Nishio thought for a while and said, "According to intelligence, near Huangqiao, there are now two detachments of the New Fourth Army, nearly 20,000 people, can this Han Deqin eat?" Even if our imperial army makes a move, without the strength of a division, it is not easy to deal with the 20,000 New Fourth Army. ā
Itagaki Seishiro nodded, dipped his hand in wine and calculated, "Han Deqin claims to be 100,000, but there are about 50,000 people who really have combat power, excluding the guard troops that cannot fight and the troops that were wiped out some time ago, about 30,000 can be dispatched, Chen Taiyun of the tax police corps can dispatch 5,000, the Taizhou Army can dispatch 20,000, and the National Salvation Army can dispatch 20,000, so that if you really attack together, the New Fourth Army will indeed be difficult." ā
Nishio shook his head and said, "A big battle of 100,000 people, but this is indeed a good thing for our imperial army, what are your plans?" ā
Itagaki Seishiro said, "Then since Chen Yi said that he moved Li Mingyang, then he will definitely not guard against the direction of Taizhou, that Su Yu I also know some, he likes to fight fast battles the most, the official steep gate of the year, he only took eight minutes to finish more than 200 of us, but this fast battle needs to concentrate troops, I expect that the New Fourth Army will not exceed the strength of a regiment in Taizhou, if Li Changjiang can really carry Li Mingyang on his back and mobilize the army to raid the back of the New Fourth Army, then the New Fourth Army will definitely be defeated!" Didn't he ask for a million to buy people's hearts, and we gave him three million! Didn't he ask for guns and ammunition? We give! I want to mobilize two divisions of the Imperial Allied Army to join him, and we can even add some technical arms of the Imperial Army to them, and in addition, we have to make an appointment with them, and when the Yellow Bridge starts, we will mobilize aviation to bomb the positions of the New Fourth Army. ā
Nishio asked, "Didn't we just stand up?" ā
Seishiro Itagaki smiled, "It's just to stand up last!" When we stand up, Yan'an will definitely say that Chongqing will unite with us to attack the New Fourth Army, the New Fourth Army is not only 20,000 people in Huangqiao, he still has the main force in Jiangnan! When the time comes, the New Fourth Army will definitely use this excuse to attack the National Army, and when that time comes, we will fan the flames on both sides, buy and persuade us to surrender, and the final winner must be our Imperial Army!
