Chapter 617: Storm at Night
After being released, these people used various channels to travel to the three eastern provinces. Subsequently, there was a mysterious additional subordinate organization under the General Staff of the three eastern provinces. Call it the Fourth Division of the General Staff.
This fourth division is under the direct jurisdiction of the General Staff of the National Defence Forces. and is directly responsible to Tu Qianjun, commander-in-chief of the National Defense Forces, and all work only needs to be reported to Su Zongzhe, chief of the general staff, and Tu Qianjun, commander-in-chief.
And if someone can look through the archives that only Su Zongzhen and Tu Qianjun saw, they will find that the director of this place is actually the king of killers, Wang Yajiao!
Those who belonged to Wang Yajiao's command began to gather in the three eastern provinces from all over the place. After secret training and filing, they began to travel to the places where they were booked to sneak in.
At the same time, their families were all arranged in the three eastern provinces. If they die, then their families will be taken care of by the three eastern provinces. What was originally a loose organization has formed a huge network after complete training and teaching.
And this network is even bigger, more hidden, and more lethal than the military command!
At this time, the situation in Xi'an began to become a little strange. At the end of August 1936, the Military Command Bureau entrenched in Shaanxi secretly commanded Zhang Xueliang's secretaries Song Li, Ma Shaozhou and Guan Peicang.
This directly detonated Zhang Xueliang's anger! Originally, he was in northern Shaanxi to suppress the 110th Division and 109th Division, and he was very distressed! As a result, Nanjing did not give supplements and did not have a pension! The cynicism of the meal was also eliminated, not to mention the reduction of 20%!
At that time, the weapons and ammunition used by the Northeast Army were completely stockpiled from the Northeast, and Jiang Zhongzheng never reissued a single shot. Only a few divisions participated in the fight against the Red Army, and Nanjing's military salary was only seventy percent of that of the Central Army!
Zhang Xueliang's special expenses are less than that of Hu Zongnan, a military commander. In the Red War, the dead and wounded officers and soldiers were denied pensions to the bereaved families, and the living were displaced. Organizationally controlled, such as the Chief of Staff. When he was in Wuhan, he was Qian Dajun, and when he went to Xi'an, he was Yan Daogang, both of whom were his confidants of Jiang Zhongzheng.
Even if this is the case, the military commander Dai Li also secretly established and developed the organization of the military command in the Northeast Army. They have a confidential radio station with Chiang Zhongzheng......
This has made Zhang Xueliang extremely dissatisfied, and now he sent someone to arrest his secretary, which naturally detonated Zhang Xueliang's anger! Zhang Xueliang's guard captain Tan Hai had a calm face and led the guards to gather in the courtyard.
"Hahaha...... All right! All right!! Someone caught me on the head!" saw Zhang Xueliang in the courtyard, and said in a deep voice to the guards who had already gathered.
"Tan Hai! Go to Wang Qu to bring a regiment of brothers over, cooperate with the guard battalion to impose martial law in the whole city, and prepare to take action against the provincial party headquarters! Tan Hai couldn't help but give a military salute excitedly after listening to Zhang Xueliang's words, and responded loudly: "Yes!" ”
During this period, the Northeast Army was in Shaanxi under the influence of the Central Army for not a day or two. Not to mention the deduction of military salaries, all kinds of materials have not been replenished! Except for him in the Central Army himself, the others are all raised by his stepmother! Even those bullets used to suppress bandits are the Northeast Army's own inventory!
The entire Northeast Army from top to bottom, who doesn't hate the Nanjing government to the bone?!
That night, Tan Hai, the chief of the guard, had received an order to carry out this urgent task, and everything was ready, as long as Zhang Xueliang waved his hand, more than a dozen military vehicles full of armed soldiers were ready to go. will act immediately!
But Zhang Xueliang has not yet sent this signal, he does not have any concerns, or has changed his mind again. Rather, it is waiting for someone.
This person's name is Li Tiancai, a native of Shandong, born in 1900. His original name was Li Jingtian, his name Bohai, a pen name for genius, he joined the red in his early years, served as the secretary of the ** Beiping Municipal Party Committee, was arrested that year, and it was he who was sentenced and led to the arrest of Ma Dabeard.
After his release from prison, he worked for the Jin family in Peking for a while. After the Northeast changed banners. He went to the Northeast and became Zhang Xueliang's assistant and was quite trusted. After the "918" incident, he was in charge of the intelligence work in Northeast China, was loyal to his duties, and was not moved by Nanjing's efforts to woo him.
Zhang Xueliang served as the deputy commander of the "Suppression Chief" of Henan, Hubei and Anhui Provinces, and later served as the deputy commander of the "Suppression Chief" in the northwest. He is the director of the confidential department of the headquarters and is one of the senior staff members that Zhang Xueliang relies on the most.
Li Tiancai came in a hurry, and just entered the living room, Zhang Xueliang said coldly before he could speak: "Bohai, I want to kill a few people today, the order has been given, act immediately." Would like to hear your final thoughts. ”
Li Tiancai suddenly broke out in a cold sweat when he heard this, and then he settled down and asked a few whys. Zhang Xueliang didn't hide it, and directly explained the matter thoroughly.
"The provincial party department is too arrogant, right?! The people of my Northeast Army, he can arrest and close if he wants? ! Do I still want to be a commander if I go on like this?! But seeing that Zhang Xueliang's face was extremely ugly, he said to Li Tiancai.
"The brothers followed me from birth to death, and followed me from my hometown in the northeast to suffer here! If I can't even protect him, then what else can I do as a commander!! ”
Li Tiancai understands Zhang Xueliang's anger, in fact, without the three eastern provinces as a foundation, Zhang Xueliang should know his situation. It is only a matter of time before it is disintegrated and dismembered. Let the Northeast Army die with the red, this is what Nanjing is willing to see.
"If you vent your anger, you won't solve the problem. If you immediately oppose Chiang, respond to Suidong, and carry out the War of Resistance, you can kill a few people. Otherwise, just for the sake of pleasure, give others a handle, and fall into disadvantage. Commander, the so-called small unbearable is a big plan! ”
Hearing Li Tiancai's words, Zhang Xueliang's face softened. After being silent for a while, let Tan Hai come in and stop the action first.
Zhang Xueliang, who Li Tiantian saw, calmed down, and his face gradually looked better. Facing Zhang Xueliang, he said: "Commander, we still have to do to search the secret service department of the provincial party department." Otherwise, how can you convince the public?! However, we will only copy the documents, arrest the main spies, and hand over the whole case to the Military Justice Department to handle it in accordance with the law, so as to avoid direct killing. ”
Zhang Xueliang nodded when he heard this, and Li Tiancai continued: "Then, the commander can instruct Shaanxi Provincial Chairman Shao Zili to inquire and instruct him to immediately find out about this matter. In any case, the commander is a member of the Central Standing Committee of the National Government and the acting commander-in-chief of the General Headquarters. They arrest people on their own without your consent, which in itself is wrong......"
Hearing Li Tiancai say this, Zhang Xueliang smiled! called Tan Hai in and ordered him like this. Tan Hai nodded and took the order, and then a regiment of the Northeast Army slaughtered the Shaanxi Provincial Party Headquarters viciously!
At this time, the plainclothes military commanders of the Shaanxi Provincial Party Department were still laughing and smoking cigarettes, and the military commanders' actions against the Northeast Army during this period were not small. However, they calculated that Zhang Xueliang could not directly conflict with Nanjing.
The current Northeast Army is not the Northeast Army that was self-sufficient with hundreds of planes and thousands of artillery pieces! Without the three eastern provinces as a foundation, they are just duckweed. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the chairman of the committee wants to let this Northeast Army fight to the death with red! Pull down all the dead light!
If it weren't for the fact that the red threat was still there, the cohesion of the Northeast Army would still be okay, and there would still be nearly 200,000 troops, maybe the Central Army would have annexed it by itself!
"Uh......h Squeak~~" While these plainclothes people of the Military Command Bureau were talking and laughing, a roar of cars and the sound of screeching brakes came! Then I heard a chaotic sound of "...... lala" outside the party department!
Those plainclothes people from the army turned their faces suddenly blue, they are not fools! This was obviously the movement of the army's movements, but before they rushed out to check, they saw Tan Hai, who had a cold face, and suddenly entered the party headquarters with hundreds of Northeast Army!
"Tan Hai!! What are you doing?! Do you want to rebel?! Do you know what this place is?! How dare you mess around!! Jiang Xiongfeng, the head of the party department, also knows Tan Hai, but since he has the Nanjing government as his backer, he doesn't look at the "miscellaneous card" of the Northeast Army at all!
"On the orders of the Central Executive Committee and the Acting Commander-in-Chief, we have come to ban the illegal activities of plainclothes spies arresting people behind his back!" But seeing Tan Hai looking at Jiang Xiongfeng coldly, he said in a deep voice: "If there is any problem, you can find the commander-in-chief yourself!" Brethren! Do it! There are those who resist, kill!! ”
"Yes!!" The Northeast Army behind Tan Hai had long been fed up with the high-spirited tone of these "Nanjing Yankees", and without hesitation, they set up all the light and heavy machine guns in this party headquarters, and the meaning was very clear: Whoever moves is a mortal enemy!
A regiment of thousands of people surrounded this party headquarters, and countless guns extended from the windows and rooms! The muzzle with a chill made Jiang Xiongfeng feel cold!
He regretted his toughness in front of Zhang Xueliang today. In fact, as early as soon after he arrested people, Zhang Xueliang asked people to talk to him. At that time, Jiang Xiongfeng also threw out the arrest warrant issued by Jiang Zhongzheng arrogantly, and said to Zhang Xueliang.
"The authorities named Li Youwen, Liu Lanbo, Sun Dasheng, and Ma Shao as red elements and should be immediately arrested and sent to Nanjing for interrogation. I also hope that the Commander-in-Chief will understand. ”
"These people are all my subordinates and students, how come I don't know that they are red elements, do you have any evidence?!" Zhang Xueliang's face was already very ugly at that time, but Jiang Xiongfeng thought that he was reliable with the Nanjing government. Zhang Xueliang didn't dare to do anything to hang him.
"I don't know what evidence there is, but the lowly office is just doing what is ordered."
"If you have an order, why don't you send me for approval first, do you dare to arrest people behind my back, do you still have me as the acting commander in your eyes?!" Zhang Xueliang was already angry at that time, but Jiang Xiongfeng still felt that it didn't matter.
"Inferior and inferior He De He Nen dares to arrest people privately?! Isn't this here to ask the acting commander for approval?! Jiang Xiongfeng still remembered the frivolity in his tone, and he still remembered the gloomy words that Zhang Xueliang said at that time.
"The chairman's telegram will only be issued if you have a report. He is now arrested as ordered and sent to the Military Police Inspectorate for interrogation. If it is indeed a red element, the law of the land will be enforced. If there is no real evidence, it is not red, but you are making waves and falsely accusing good people, and I will also take your false accusations and sit on ......" (to be continued)
