Chapter 227 Straight Forward
Chapter 227 goes straight to the point
@@@@@
Seventeen-year-old Shuangxi wore a mask, lifted his hands up forcefully, dumped the raw coal in the dump truck next to the mountain of coal, clapped his hands and began to transport the next truckload of coal (). That's his job, transferring the excavated coal, sending it to the winch and transporting it to the coal train via a belt winch. Most of the raw coal is sent along the railway to coal washing and coking plants, or new honeycomb coal plants, and the rest is transported to Jiangxi counties for daily fuel and other purposes.
In the past, raw coal should have been sent to Hunan, but recently Xiangtan Coal Mine is said to have purchased foreign machinery and its output has increased significantly, so it does not rely on this place to provide raw coal, but the coking coal of the steelmaking plant still needs to rely here, because there is currently the largest coking plant in China, and the quality of raw coal is also good.
He didn't know a few big words of double happiness, what coal was black in his eyes, how could he know what was good or not, these were all things he heard from the mouth of the new technician. He also has three younger siblings under him, and his family's more than one acre of dry land alone can't provide so many mouths, so like the poor people near Anyuan, he came to the coal mine early to earn money ().
When I first came, I was often bullied because I was thin and small, and I couldn't earn a few coppers a day, and even eating and drinking by myself became a problem. Seeing that he couldn't survive anymore, he and a few young people still wanted to take the opportunity of the national uprising to become soldiers, but they didn't expect to think about it, and Pingxiang and Anyuan underwent earth-shaking changes.
He still remembers it vividly, that night along the Zhuping Railway suddenly came a lot of soldiers, silently occupied the entire mining area and factories, and after dawn those blood-sucking mines, the supervisors were all arrested. The Sheng family's stewardship here has not been left behind, and even many Japanese have been arrested in one go. After the soldiers had taken the people, they gathered all the workers together, and publicly tried the villains who sucked the miners' hard-earned money in front of everyone, and ransacked their homes. That day, he and the miners finally got the wages that were deliberately deducted, and not only that, but also compensated a lot, and everyone burst into tears with excitement, and many people knelt down and kowtowed.
A few days later, he learned that those who were soldiers were the Wehrmacht in Hunan.
After the Daye incident, the National Defense Army took advantage of the situation to regain all the shares of Hanyeping and immediately carried out a major reorganization of the Anyuan Coal Mine in Pingxiang. Millions of hard-earned money was used to compensate miners for unpaid wages, and the remainder was used to purchase new equipment and expand the size of the coke plant.
After the treatment of the miners and the workers of several factories was improved, everyone's mind gradually turned to the southwest, although this is located in Jiangxi, and many high-ranking officials from Jiangxi and other provinces came here to get a vote, and it can be seen that the guard battalions of the Wehrmacht stationed here are all scared away.
After the reorganization of the Jiangxi Coal Company this year is also a significant change, not only added a lot of new machines, the second phase of the new plant has been built next to the coking plant, there are many plants under construction in the distance, I heard that to engage in gas and chemical industry, the customized foreign machines have arrived one after another after the recruitment of a lot of workers, originally he also wanted to try, but unfortunately he could not read and finally could only continue to do the hardest miners.
However, he was not discouraged, the coal mine is now changed to calculate wages according to the quantity, not only the basic wage has increased, but the factory has also helped everyone buy insurance, I heard that this kind of insurance can lose a lot of money after an accident, and there is no blood-sucking supervisor, so everyone has worked very hard during this time, and the output has more than doubled compared to previous years with the help of new machines (). Seeing that the factory is building more and more, there will definitely be opportunities in the future, so I wrote down the words of the technician, and also signed up for the company's night culture cram school, but unfortunately Jiangxi has not implemented free education, otherwise he really wants to study for a few years.
So everyone doesn't care how chaotic the outside world is, I just hope that this kind of day will be as long as possible.
After the car was full, he pushed the car and was just about to turn around, when a few whistles suddenly came, and everyone didn't pay attention at first, because the Zhuping Railway has been very busy, but when it got closer, his eyes suddenly widened, only to see that the train did not go to the coking plant but slowly stopped, and after the door opened, hundreds of soldiers jumped down from inside, in addition to the soldiers, there were also cannons and machine guns, and in the blink of an eye, the entire open space was paved.
Everyone was nervous at first, thinking that the good days were coming to an end again, but when they saw the clothes on the soldiers' bodies, they breathed a sigh of relief.
Wehrmacht, own people!
Getting off the bus was the 223 regiment of the Wehrmacht, that is, the 22 regiment of the 3 brigade. Regiment commander Li Yuguo is a short and strong former Guijun pipe band, Gui Jun has undergone earth-shaking changes after joining the Wehrmacht, for example, his 22nd Brigade is currently all German Mauser 98, don't look at the 1st Division eliminated goods, but in fact it only took more than a year, with pointed bullets than their previous old sleeve I don't know how many times better, the only dissatisfaction is that the recoil is a little large, so that these veterans have shoulder blades pain.
Fortunately, the General Staff has listed the 22 Brigade as the second batch of re-equipped troops, and it may be possible to get self-produced Type 12 rifles and mortars in half a year.
After going north from Guangxi, the 22nd Brigade has been stationed in Xiangtan for training according to the standards of the National Defense Force. What's more, the monthly salary of 10 yuan is more than that of many craftsmen in his hometown, and the army itself does not need money to eat and drink, so everyone is full of energy. This time it was not the turn to fight Beiyang, and many people were still very dissatisfied! Of course, there are also red money among them, because the Wehrmacht has combat allowances for counter-operations, and it's all money!
After the young men lined up, they were quickly attracted by the scene in front of them, although there are also coal mines in Xiangtan and factories have begun to be built, but the scale is really small compared to here, and the coking plant that is being expanded alone makes them secretly stunned by the fact that they have hardly seen the industry.
"Made, don't embarrass Lao Tzu! It's only worth sticking out your tongue at this scale? Wait until the next time you go to Hanyang and stare again. After Li Yuguo arrived in Xiangtan with his troops, he went to the National Defense University crash course for three months of training.
"Hehe, you're finally here."
A battalion of the Hunan National Guard stationed in Anyuan is responsible for protecting coal mines and factories in normal times. Jiangxi did not have much criticism of the National Defense Army's stationing a battalion in the territory at that time, after all, people were only here to protect their own industries, and they did not care about local affairs at all. However, after the recent tension between Jiangxi and the National Defense Forces, the relationship between the two armies is also a little delicate, Li Liejun in order to prevent the National Defense Army from going south along the Zhuping Railway, so he transferred a full brigade, more than 2,000 Jiangxi troops pressed the border so that the guard battalion was very worried, fortunately the 22nd Brigade finally came.
More than 2,000 people dare to call a brigade? Li Yuguo snorted coldly, he has more than 2,000 regiments, as well as artillery companies and heavy machine gun squads! So when I heard the battalion commander of the guard say that the Gan army was blocking the way to Pingxiang, his face immediately sank: "Go, take me to meet." ”
The National Guard was just a lightly armed force for internal affairs, that is, to fight bandits and bullies and maintain law and order, and the regular army finally relieved them when they came, and hurriedly led him to the position of the Jiangxi army. The mining area is not small, and the troops trotted all the way for more than half an hour to arrive at the garrison of the Gan army, perhaps because they learned the news of the arrival of the Wehrmacht forward, so the Gan troops stationed here have all entered the trench bunkers, and there is a big posture of starting to fight without saying a word.
In order to make this veteran brigade an important reserve in the war, the General Staff Department has strengthened it in a planned way since their arrival, in addition to letting Li Yuguo and other officers go to a crash course to study, it has also sent dozens of grassroots officers and instructors, and its armament has also been supplemented with six Han III heavy machine guns and 24 7.62 mm Madsen light machine guns, a large number of grenades, and a German 75 mm field artillery battalion.
Although only one regiment has arrived at present, it is not easy to be pulled out of the forward regiment, the Gui army was originally known for its few words and good at fighting hard battles, so Li Yuguo immediately made deployments, first set up the Han III heavy machine guns and cannons issued to him, and then swaggered towards the position of the Jiangxi army.
The two armies have been facing each other for some days, but they are relatively restrained and do not go off the rails, and the Gan army has never stopped the soldiers sent by the guard battalion to Pingxiang County to purchase supplies and food, and the atmosphere is quite friendly, but when I saw Li Yuguo's regular army uniform, his face still changed.
Stationed here is the Fifth Brigade of the Jiangxi Army, the brigade commander is called Cai Ruiting, Jiujiang took the lead in independence and also served as the chief of staff of the Jiujiang Military Government, and is also a diehard loyalist of Sun Wen and Li Liejun, so he slapped the table after saying a few words: "Commander Li, please go back, we don't need others to preach in Jiangxi!" ”
Li Yuguo is a typical Guangxi Zhuang man, he is not good at words, if it weren't for the fact that his own people beat his own people, it would not be much fun, he would have ordered a direct attack, and when he saw him looking like he didn't eat oil and salt, he was also really angry, and glanced at the Jiangxi soldiers around him and got up and shouted: "Lao Tzu didn't want his brothers to be killed or injured, since he didn't give face, forget it!" If you want to fight, then fight, we have no bad seeds in Guangxi! However, there is an ugly saying that Lao Tzu wants to say in front, you are doing this to split the country and confront the central government! If you die, you're just a traitor! ”
Although Cai Ruiting had the intention to kill him, he was afraid of losing the notoriety of killing the envoys, so he could only watch Li Yuguo go away.
Li Yuguo was so angry that he returned to the army and deployed a strong attack, seeing that the battle in the mining area was about to break out, Shuangxi and other workers were ordered to evacuate immediately. This made many people begin to worry about whether the good days were coming to an end, and secretly hated the Gan army half to death, although the guard battalion did not participate in the battle, but all of them entered the alert state, these factories were all named above, and no one could support this responsibility if they were destroyed by shells.
"Lao Tzu is benevolent and righteous!" Li Yuguo looked at the well-prepared artillerymen, and just as he was about to teach the Gan army a lesson and make them understand how stupid it was to block the way, he was stopped by the instructor who rushed to him and shouted: "Regiment commander, wait!" The radio just got the message saying let's wait a day anyway. ”
"Wait a day?"
Li Yuguo scratched his head, the 22nd Brigade was only recently equipped with two American-made radios, this time he was in the front so the brigade commander asked him to bring one out for contact, although he didn't understand why he had to wait, but the radio was directly connected to the headquarters, so he didn't dare to make a mistake, so he could only suppress his heart and order to stand by ().
Seeing that An Yuan was about to break out, Xu Xiujun, Cai Gongshi, and Ouyang Wu also walked towards the Governor's Mansion under the protection of the guards, but only a few steps away, and a person suddenly stopped in front of him. Ouyang Wu was the first to exclaim, "Runnong? How are you! ”
The person standing in front of him is none other than Zhang Xiaozhun, one of the famous Lu Shi Sanjie, who is currently the chief of staff of the Guard Division of the National Defense Forces, and is very likely to take over as the commander of the Guard Division.
Zhang Xiaozhun was dressed in an ordinary robe, and when he saw Ouyang Wugong, he arched his hand: "Japan has been separated for a few years, and Brother Nanlei is not harmed?" ”
Ouyang Wu was completely speechless, who didn't know now that he was one of Yang Qiu's henchmen? Break into Tianjin, return to Shanghai, and fight Nanjing! Didn't he follow him that time? Now he's here, doesn't he say.
"Don't guess." Zhang Xiaozhun generously pointed to the north gate: "The vice president is already outside the north gate, he wants to ask Brother Nan Lei and the two helpers to help, in order to save Jiangxi from the war and slaughter, let him see Li Dudu." ”
"Yang Qiu is here!"
Ouyang Wu is a bold person, but he didn't expect Yang Qiu to dare to go straight to Nanchang! Xu Xiujun and Cai Gongshi were even more stunned, they didn't expect that as soon as Zhan Tianyou left, Yang Qiu would be killed under Nanchang City alone!
"Don't hide a few, our army has two brigades that have arrived in Anyuan, and four regiments are heading south, and the navy has also sent warships to Poyang Lake, do you really want things to get out of control?"
Looking at Zhang Xiaozhun's sharp gaze, the three of them slowly turned their heads and looked at the north gate, where an infantry regiment of the first division of the Jiangxi army controlled by Ouyang Wu was stationed.
In front of the Jiangxi Governor's Mansion, a carriage slowly stopped, and the guards at the gate saw Liao Bolang and Yan Sirong getting off the car and saluting hurriedly.
One of the two is the captain of the military police of the Jiangxi army, and the other is the chief of the Jiangxi police, all of whom are powerful figures in the Jiangxi military government, but they are in a bad mood these days, and the officials in the military and political government have received Yang Qiu's letter of appointment one or two, but they have not got anything ().
"Brother Liao, what do you say to do now?" Yan Sirong used to be a gang member, and during the Jiujiang Uprising, because of his meritorious cooperation, he became the chief of the police, but his temper couldn't be changed, and the military uniform was not buttoned up on his body, and he said angrily: "In my opinion, Yang Qiu obviously doesn't want our brothers anymore!" When his army came, wouldn't all these days have been wasted? ”
Liao Bolang was also very depressed, Xu Xiujun got it, Ouyang Wu got it, even Cai Gongshi, a person who had no real power in charge of transportation, was appointed, he was the captain of the gendarmerie, and the pivotal role in the Jiangxi army didn't catch anything, if the national defense army drove in, it would be too late, so he gritted his teeth: "Go and listen to the meaning of the governor first, it's really not good." Yan Sirong heard the voice-over, thinking that he was going to do Guilin and Kunming again, so he was so frightened that he hurriedly waved his hand: "Brother Liao, this is not a good way, Yang Qiu has never been soft on troublemakers!" ”
"How could I have made that move?" Liao Bolang's eyes widened, and he walked into the hall and lowered his voice and approached: "I mean, if you can't do it, you will make a big fuss, and tie up Li Liejun to go to the southwest to be a voter, no matter what, he Yang Qiu always wants to let the meritorious people eat, right?" ”
Yan Sirong's heart beat twice, this is really a way, as long as Li Liejun is tied up and sent to the southwest, Yang Qiu has to give him food no matter what, otherwise it won't chill those who take refuge in him, but this matter is easier said than done, the governor's mansion is full of Li Liejun's henchmen and soldiers, there is only one battalion of the gendarmerie, and the police under his control are scum in front of the army, how can he take Li Liejun away from the heavy guards?
How could Liao Bolang not know the difficulties, and his face was full of sadness, but he was unwilling to give up this only way, gritted his teeth and said: "I have already asked the gendarmerie to come, if I can't think of a way, I can only take this move."
Yan Sirong heard him say this, and subconsciously took out the gun to check how many bullets there were before gritting his teeth and walking into the governor's office.
In the office, Li Liejun sat at his desk and kept tapping his fingers on the table. During this time, he was a lot haggard, and Yang Qiu's salary could not be hidden from him, and he was anxious to see that his generals were appointed to high positions one by two. The battle of the Northern Expedition has been in full swing, the news that the northern front is unfavorable to Beiyang one after another, although the southern front is scorching, but Anhui Bai Wenwei has not moved so far, so things have been gloomy, and what is more serious is that Long Jiguang actually took refuge in Yuan Shikai, and also arrested Chen Jiongming and Hu Hanmin, who had just returned to Guangzhou, and the three governors of the Kuomintang are now left alone to support the situation, Huang Keqiang and Sun Wen both went to Hong Kong, Zhang Shizhao and Wu Tingfang These people sent telegrams also sank into the sea, seeing that all the roads were blocked, the expected Southeast Kuomintang did not appear in line with the times, What now? Is it to take back the power or grit your teeth and fight with Yang Qiu?
Seeing the two of them, they hurriedly got up and asked, "Bolang, has there been any news from Anhui?" ”
Liao Bolang is also a veteran member of the Kuomintang Party, and shook his head: "Bai Wenwei is probably frightened, I heard that Yang Qiu has incorporated the Anhui Army, and is also preparing to transfer a Yunnan Army brigade to be organized into the 10th Infantry Division of the National Defense Army. ”
Li Liejun didn't know how difficult it was for Bai Wenwei to stand on his side, originally he was ready to join forces with Anhui and Guangdong, and it was best to develop Fujian again, so that Yang Qiu, who gathered the strength of the four provinces, would not dare to move troops even if he didn't like it, but now Anhui has no hope, Guangdong has been wiped out by Long Jiguang, and without Guangdong, Fujian will not come forward, and Jiangxi has suddenly become a lone army!
What to do?
Liao Bolang was also anxious, raised his head and suddenly saw Yan Sirong glaring at him, and suddenly remembered what he had just said, and his heart began to beat violently! Now there are three of them in the office, this is a good opportunity, just catch Li Liejun, and then use him to threaten the soldiers outside to put down their guns, and wait for the gendarmerie to come and hold on until the Wehrmacht arrives.
Thinking of this, both of their hands unconsciously touched the pistol, Li Liejun was thinking about what to do next, and he didn't notice that the danger was slowly approaching-
ps: I'm very sorry.,Something happened to the unit today and there is no empty codeword.,This is rushed out after going home.,For it hippo hasn't eaten dinner yet.,So it's a chapter today.,There's something to be owed.。
