Chapter 683 Flags are everywhere

Tang Qiuli and Shanhu and his entourage, in the streets of Dingbian to understand the situation, was highly vigilant "Dingbian Student Federation Anti-Japanese First Brigade" armed students interrogated, and reported to the secret service, Shanhu said a name, is the current director of the secret service, the former independent division of the first brigade of the second regiment commander Gao Chuangshan, Shanhu and he is an old acquaintance, the secret service police called the director's office, as soon as he heard the description of his subordinates, Gao Chuangshan jumped up from the chair, oh my God, the division commander returned to Dingbian, why didn't he get any news in advance?

He hurriedly gave Liu Hanzhang, vice chairman of the Military and Political Committee of the Dingbian Special Administrative Region and mayor of Dingbian Special City, and Bai Chucai, commander of the Dingbian Garrison District, called to report the situation, and then called the agents of the special security department of the bureau, took more than a dozen police cars, sounded sirens all the way, and happened to meet Liu Hanzhang and Bai Chucai's convoy at the intersection. Citizens and armed forces passing by stopped and watched.

Liu Hanzhang and Bai Chucai are not as unexpected as Gao Chuangshan, Tang Qiuli is going to Dingbian, when he was in Xi'an, he already knew that because of the matter in Xi'an, the two blamed themselves for many days, no way, after Dingbian replaced the status of Xi'an, the Military and Political Commission of the Dingbian Special Economic Zone was actually exercising the functions and powers of the provincial government, and the biggest problem Liu Hanzhang encountered was the lack of cadres, especially the cadres trained by Dingbian himself, after Tang Qiuli was transferred to more than half of Shandong, this problem was particularly prominent.

Bao Chongde, commander of the Xi'an Garrison District, was one of them, and he had heard a lot about the fact that the old personnel in various localities had violated the law and discipline and did not obey the orders of the Military and Political Commission of the Special Administrative Region.

Therefore, Liu Hanzhang was a little afraid of seeing Tang Qiuli, and so was Bai Chucai, for fear that Tang Qiuli would be scolded in person, as an independent teacher, he knew that although the teacher was very easy-going, there were some things that exceeded his psychological bottom line, and the means he adopted made people shudder, such as the killing in Xi'an this time.

The huge convoy stopped in front of Tang Qiuli together, and the three major figures of the Dingbian political and military police system appeared at the same time, such a situation was the first time since the establishment of the city in Dingbian, seeing Tang Qiuli standing with a smile, Liu Hanzhang hurriedly stepped forward, Bai Chucai and Gao Chuangshan were upright military salutes: "Report to the division commander, Bai Chucai, commander of the Dingbian Garrison District, came to report, please instruct" Bai Chu is a person from the former Northwest Army, and Tang Qiuli's feelings are one layer different, and the relationship between superiors and subordinates is very clear.

Gao Chuangshan is different, he is one of the old people when the bloody hand group started, following Tang Qiuli from birth to death, from the northeast to North China and then to Dingbian, seeing that although the division commander still has the same demeanor, his hair is mottled, and he can't hide his tiredness, a burst of blood surges, the corners of his eyes are moist, and his voice is somewhat choked: "Report to the division commander, Gao Chuangshan, the former commander of the Second Regiment of the First Independent Brigade of the Independent Division, and the current director of the Dingbian Secret Service Bureau, report to you, please instruct"

The polite Liu Hanzhang, who was the opponent of the two soldiers, had already overshadowed his voice with a loud voice, and then he was free, and hurriedly said: "Chairman, you have worked hard all the way, please sit down at the city hall and report the situation to you in person," this is a terrible situation, the dozen or so policemen of the Dingbian Secret Service looked at this scene in a daze, until the agents of the special security department directly surrendered the guns in their hands, and they woke up.

Tang Qiuli waved his hand, stopped Gao Chuangshan's slightly embarrassed apology, waved his hand to the police lieutenant who led the team, and said to Gao Chuangshan with great appreciation: "Director Gao, your subordinates are good, your appearance is very good, you can't punish this dutiful lieutenant when you go back" Of course, Gao Chuangshan knew that Tang Qiuli was not that kind of person, but after all, his subordinates pointed a gun at the head of the division commander, and pushed the boat down the river, "Continue your mission, the safety of the division commander, just leave it to the special security department."

When more than a dozen policemen left, they were still like in a dream, and they caught the No. 1 person in our Dingbian in a daze, without any punishment, and were praised in front of the director.

The female student who led the First Anti-Japanese Brigade of the Dingbian Student Federation found that she was in the middle of several leading figures in Dingbian, and she was still holding her gun stupidly, but she didn't panic much, but asked: "Are you really Chairman Tang?" Tang Qiuli smiled, very interested in the mental outlook of the students in Dingbian, and asked rhetorically: "What, don't I look like it?" ”

Facing Tang Qiuli's heroic and burning gaze, the beautiful schoolgirl's face turned red for no reason, and her heart trembled for no reason, and she quickly slipped out of the crowd, ran away with her companions, and didn't forget to look back at Tang Qiuli before leaving, "He is really heroic, and his eyes can penetrate people's hearts," Perhaps, at this moment, Tang Qiuli's image has been deeply rooted in her heart and will accompany her green years.

More citizens and armed teams gathered around, the truth saw the demeanor of the founder of Dingbian, Tang Qiuli saw that the situation was not good, and he was going to block the traffic, so he hurriedly got in the car and drove to the city government, leaving countless eager eyes, watching the convoy go away, at this critical moment, Tang Qiuli returned to Dingbian, which undoubtedly had a huge impact on the citizens of Dingbian.

In the conference room of the city government, Tang Qiuli listened attentively to the reports of Liu Hanzhang and Bai Chucai, and after receiving the order from the division commander, the Military and Political Committee of the Dingbian Special Administrative Region and the Garrison District Headquarters immediately carried out a general mobilization in the whole city, calling on the citizens to arm themselves and defend their homeland, and according to Liu Hanzhang and Bai Chucai's estimates, it would not be a problem to mobilize 80,000 or 90,000 people.

Unexpectedly, they were still conservative, looking at the roster with a thickness almost as high as the table, they were startled, as soon as the order was issued, the citizens of Dingbian set off an unprecedented upsurge, in front of the various registration stations, crowded with the armed forces who asked to participate in the defense of Dingbian, on the first day alone, more than 100,000 citizens signed up, and then, Dingbian factories and mining enterprises, arsenal workers, students of colleges and universities, students of universities and middle schools, employees of private enterprises, including small merchants and hawkers on the streets, also joined the torrent of registration, The cadets of the Dingbian Military Academy also organized a cadet brigade on their own, and the number of people who signed up before and after reached 560,000.

This kind of scene can make Liu Hanzhang and Bai Chucai happy and sad, and hurriedly arrange manpower, organize and persuade, and finally compress the number of people to about 350,000, and according to different industries and systems, a number of brigades, detachments, corps, as well as regiments, brigades, etc., are organized to unify and make a batch of armbands, and clarify the number, which is why Tang Qiuli saw the scene where all the people in Dingbian are soldiers and armed with different numbers.

After dealing with these, the two of them just took a breath, General Jiang Baili, the dean of the Dingbian Military Academy, came to the door, and he must lead the cadet brigade of the military academy to the front line, and personally assume the position of brigade commander, in the face of the general's request, he could not refuse at all, and sent General Jiang Baili away, who has already served as the director of the management committee of the Dingbian Martyrs Cemetery, and the former deputy commander of the 29th Corps, General Feng Zhi'an, came to the door again, saying that he would go into battle again, and said, if you don't command a corps, you can command a brigade, in a word, If the two did not agree, he led the personnel of the martyrs' cemetery to organize a separate army and also go to the Yellow River defense line.

Gao Chuangshan interjected, and all the policemen of the Secret Service and its subordinate sub-bureaus jointly signed a letter, demanding that they be able to form a field force separately and take off their police uniforms and change their uniforms, and Gao Chuangshan had a headache, and according to the requirements of the Military and Political Committee, all the personnel of the Secret Service did not participate in the defense of the Yellow River, because all the armed forces in Dingbian were going to the front line, and the heavy responsibility of law and order and garrison in Dingbian fell on the Secret Service.

Tang Qiuli can only express his feelings at this time with gratitude, Dingbian has the fine tradition of all the people are soldiers, at this critical moment related to the survival of Dingbian, the unprecedented enthusiasm of the citizens of Dingbian made him full of confidence, and the citizens of Dingbian, who have enjoyed a peaceful and peaceful life for a long time, have never felt that the pace of war is so close, but they are not alarmed, no one wants to lose what they have now, which is the basis for the unprecedented enthusiasm of the citizens this time, with correct guidance, Tang Qiuli can increase the army of hundreds of thousands out of thin air, Flags are everywhere, maybe that's the scene, right?

Okamura Ningci's hundreds of thousands of Japanese soldiers came to serve as sparring partners, and the pressure was also the driving force, and the reason why Tang Qiuli carried out the general mobilization with great fanfare was to test that when the war came, the reaction of the people, he got what he wanted, and then discussed and decided to compress the soldiers to about 250,000, and form a number of corps according to the industry and system, with the active officer of the garrison area as the chief captain. The battle to defend the Yellow River was mainly an artillery battle.

At about 7:30 p.m., it is the time for the whole family of Dingbian citizens to get together for dinner, the tense atmosphere has not affected the lives of the citizens, almost all families, have turned on the radio, this is already a habit, all the important news and heavy events in the Dingbian Special Economic Zone, will be broadcast during this period, listen to the 7:30 p.m. news of the Dingbian Voice Radio Station, has penetrated into the life of every citizen, affecting everyone's food, clothing, housing and transportation.

Tonight was an exception, the announcer kept repeating, "Citizens, there will be an important announcement later, please pay attention to listen," everyone's attention was attracted, thinking of the order issued by the city government, the daily intense military training of their own children, and the rumors that the Japanese were going to fight the Yellow River, and they were so nervous that they did not dare to speak loudly.

At 7:45 a.m., after a short period of passionate music, a rich baritone voice came out of the radio: "Ladies and gentlemen, good evening, I am Tang Qiuli, chairman of the Military and Political Committee of the Dingbian Special Economic Zone. ”
