Chapter 418: Blocked from going south
It should have been a flowing fire in the blink of an eye in July, the rain was wild, Nanjing Jiang Zhongzheng heard that more than a dozen trains pulling tens of thousands of troops were Yanjinpu Road south, frightened not lightly, now the domestic shape is very good, but his backyard Shanghai was stabbed in the ass by the Japanese, it was already a headache How to deal with it, and now there is a large force of unidentified troops, how can he not be alarmed, originally there was Wu Xiaoliang in the north of Shandong, he was also very relieved, but why did he suddenly let a large number of people go south, or there was a huge change in ShandongThis thought jumped out of his mind, and he was shocked into a cold sweat.
Could it be that Wu Wei has a different heart, once this idea comes out in his heart, it will be difficult for him to sit still, although the Japanese dare to attack Shanghai, but they are only sending troops to test it, the United States and Britain will not indulge them for long, so it is only an elbow and arm disease, but the threat from the country is a problem in the heart.
Jiang Zhongzheng Khan came to his attendants and asked sharply: "Isn't there any definite information from the garrison headquarters, and who exactly does that army belong to?" ”
The attendant said helplessly: "It's still investigating, Commander Chen said that there will be news soon." ”
"Niang Xipi, when he finds out, the traitors have all arrived in Nanjing City, tell Chen Zhenru to prepare for war immediately, don't be sloppy."
"Yes."
The attendant went out of the door, and within a moment, he rushed in and pushed the door in, without even knocking on the door, which made Jiang Zhongzheng very unhappy in his heart, and he was very dissatisfied with the attendant's recklessness today.
"What's the matter, didn't you hurry up and give the order to go, and what to do again this time?"
The attendant obviously hadn't recovered from the shock, and stammered: "Check, check it out, yes, it's the chairman of Shandong Province, Wu Weizhong's troops ......."
"Niang Xipi, the white-eyed wolf who can't be fed, I owe it to me that I put my heart into him, is this his reward for me?"
The attendant explained: "The commander-in-chief misunderstood, and Wu Weizhong came here to claim that it was to reinforce Songhu to resist Japan. ”
……
Jiang Zhongzheng is very much hated these foreigners who are powerful on Chinese soil, but the actual situation makes him have to bow his head to reality, so he has to try his best to satisfy the insatiable desires of those robbers, which is an untouchable shame in his heart, this is the case in Jinan a year ago, and this year's Songhu is also the same, he once wrote down the shameful day in the center of his diary, from Jiang Zhongzheng received the exact news that the Japanese army officially started war against the defenders stationed in Shanghai, he understood that the tragedy will be staged again.
The call of the attendant pulled him back to reality, there are not many defenders stationed in Shanghai, it can be said that there are not many defenders in the entire Beijing-Shanghai area, and it is not impossible for the Japanese army to raid Nanjing on a large scale, thinking of this, he was shocked into a cold sweat in his heart, but then a hanging heart fell back into his stomach, and it was impossible for the United States and Britain to see their interests in China damaged, by the Japanese nature.
The heavy rain went all the way from Shandong to Jiangsu, and at the Pukou Station in Nanjing, Wu Xiaoliang, who was the first to arrive, and a group of men and horses of the 57th Division were crowded at the wharf in a chaotic manner, and Wu Xiaoliang was negotiating with the local garrison, hoping to take a ferry to lead his troops across the river and then rush to Shanghai, but he did not know that the other party would not give an inch.
"Commander Chen gave a death order, no foreign army can step into the garrison without the commander-in-chief's will, you should retreat quickly, otherwise you will be welcome." A man who looked like a major general took out his gun, and the soldiers behind him also pulled the bolt of the gun one after another, and the atmosphere suddenly became tense, and there was a danger of misfire if he was not careful.
Wu Xiaoliang sent a telegram to Jiang Zhongzheng as early as the beginning of his southward journey, but for some reason he did not call back, at that time he had a premonition in his heart that something was not good, and now he really encountered trouble in Pukou, Pukou and Nanjing are separated by the Yangtze River, so naturally they could not forcibly break through, not to mention that they were all heavy in the absence of Jiang Zhongzheng's will, and forcibly crossed the river Isn't it a declaration of war on the Nanjing government, so he had to force down the anger in his chest and said:
"What about you Commander Chen, I want to see you Commander Chen."
The major general's face was still on guard, and the Browning automatic pistol in his right hand was clenched even tighter.
"Commander Chen, you can see it if you say it, hurry up and go back, otherwise you're welcome."
Wu Xiaoliang wanted to ease the atmosphere, but the people in the garrison headquarters were all as if they had eaten gunpowder, as long as his men got a little closer, they looked like they were facing a great enemy, and they had no choice but to order the 57th Division to retreat ten miles and stand by.
Wu Xiaoliang had to solve this thorny problem before the arrival of the large army, and he now had a big question in his heart, that is, why Jiang Zhongzheng did not call him back, according to past experience, his telegram to the old Chiang Kai-shek was as fast as he wanted, and the request was not met on May Day, but this time it was extremely abnormal, and there was no reply from beginning to end, what exactly did Jiang Zhongzheng do.
Wu Xiaoliang has long known that the Beijing-Shanghai area is empty, once he fights with the Japanese 6th Army, the main force entangled with Feng Yuxiang in Hubei must not be transferred back, otherwise the Hubei war situation will be in danger of falling short. First, he must get in touch with Chen Mingshu, commander of the Beijing-Shanghai garrison, and reach an understanding, and second, and most importantly, he must personally go to meet Jiang Zhongzheng and present his feelings vigorously, in the hope of gaining the support of the central government and justifiably going to the Songhu battlefield to resist Japan.
……
"What, it's already in Pukou, Wu Weizhong is going to rebel and engage in military advice."
Jiang Zhongzheng was very angry, he hated others the most for hiding from him, the Beijing-Shanghai area was indeed insufficient, if Wu Weizhong asked him for instructions in advance, he would have agreed to Shandong's request for help, but like now, he quietly drove the army to the city of Nanjing, did this Wu Weizhong take him seriously.
"Respectfully, tell me what to do with this Wu Weizhong."
Jiang Zhongzheng's side was a rather heroic general, and this person was He Yingqin, chief of the general staff of the 6th Air Force of the National Revolutionary Army.
"Commander-in-chief, according to what you can see, you must not allow him to cross the river to the south, Nanjing is empty now, in case this person has a bad intention, we may not have the ability to parry."
"Oh, so what."
He Yingqin said in his heart, half of the words are enough, he knows Lao Jiang's temperament too well, this person is suspicious, his words will inevitably cause him to doubt Wu Xiaoliang, why bother to say more, so he said solemnly:
"It's up to the Commander-in-Chief."
Jiang Zhongzheng was very satisfied with He Yingqin's deferential demeanor in front of him, and nodded a little proudly, but in his heart, he was troubled because of how to deal with Wu Xiaoliang, and the attendant roared into the door again, and the old Jiang Xindao was definitely not good news.
"According to the report from the front, the 24th Brigade and the 9th Division of the Japanese Army landed 6 ...... in Shanghai"
