Chapter 610: Crossing the River
The person Wu Xiaoliang remembered was Sun Jiayu, who currently runs all the industries that Wu Xiaoliang has earned back in the world in the past ten years, and is also his right-hand man in the previous ten years, but Sun Jiayu also has two points that make Wu Xiaoliang worried, one is that Sun Jiayu has never been involved in politics, and he is transferred back to coordinate the assets of all parties, lest his lack of prestige lead to many constraints, which will make things worse, and second, in recent years, Sun Jiayu's body has begun to decline, and due to diabetes, some complications have appeared. Once in charge of wartime assets, in addition to facing a lot of administrative work, but also having to coordinate the complex interpersonal relationships of all parties, can his body stand up?
However, at present, there is a more urgent matter than recalling Sun Jiayu, that is, Yang Hucheng, it has become an urgent matter to meet him as soon as possible, Zhang Xueliang received the adjutant's report and hurried to the Northeast Army to deal with military affairs, it was getting late, and Wu Xiaoliang was the only one left in the whole house, looking worriedly at the dark red sun in the distance.
After the change of guard of the Xi'an garrison, all the key points are now under the control of Dong Haibin's 17th Division, Yang Hucheng must have a grudge against this, he did not return to Xi'an after returning from Sanyuan, but stayed in Xianyang, north of Weishui, and stagnated in the garrison of the 17th Route Army.
After a while, Wu Xiaoliang called the head of the guard regiment and decided to go to Xianyang to talk to Yang Hucheng and solve the current problem as soon as possible.
After learning of Wu Xiaoliang's order, Dong Haibin, the commander of the 17th Division, personally came to stop him, thinking that it was too dangerous for Wu Xiaoliang to go alone to see Yang Hucheng at such a sensitive moment, and it also contributed to Yang Hucheng's arrogance.
"There has been a lot of friction with the Seventeenth Route Army in the past few days when the lowly came to Xi'an, and even caused a lot of deaths, and now there are two bombings, the fog is heavy, all parties have ghosts, Junzuo is in danger, and the lowly duty feels that it is inappropriate......"
But once Wu Xiaoliang decides to do something, it is not something that others can easily change, and after the persuasion failed, Dong Haibin retreated and asked to go to Xianyang with him personally.
Wu Xiaoliang didn't object, it didn't matter if he took Dong Haibin with him, even if there was friction, after all, they had worked together for some days, and they could always talk at critical moments.
However, Dong Haibin still called the Xi'an Garrison Headquarters in advance to arrange martial law, and the entire city and outside the city were like facing a great enemy, and then in the name of Dong Haibin, the commander of the Xi'an Garrison, informed the temporary headquarters of the 17th Route Army stationed in Xianyang that it would visit in two hours.
Dong Haibin is playing tricks, not talking about Wu Xiaoliang but only saying that he is him, and he is also on guard against people with ulterior motives in case there are ghosts, and he does not dare to act rashly.
The sun completely disappeared below the horizon, the entire Xi'an city was enveloped in darkness, the convoy roared out of Xi'an, along the way there were soldiers pointing, all said that there were big people traveling, they all speculated about who could be made so late, many people thought it was Dong Haibin, and the news from the garrison headquarters also faintly revealed that the traveler was the commander of the 17th Division and the commander of the Xi'an garrison, Dong Haibin, but no one could have imagined that one of the cars in this convoy was sitting in Shaanxi, Henan, Wu Xiaoliang, the military and political power of the three provinces of Shandong.
The convoy roared to the north, and when it reached the edge of the Weishui, it did not slow down and drove directly over, it turned out that due to the decrease in the amount of water in winter, coupled with the freezing of the river, the convoy could naturally drive over easily, and the 17th Route Army stationed heavy troops on the original wharf on the north bank of the river, and saw a convoy whizzing towards it, and immediately fired a warning shot.
"Somebody up ahead."
"The ...... of the Xi'an Garrison Command"
Although Dong Haibin had called in his own name to inform them in advance, the defenders of the 17th Route Army on the north bank of Weishui still did not let them go, but directly stopped them on the ice.
"I'm sorry, the brothers didn't get the notice above, please don't be impatient, let the brothers go and ask for instructions......"
Dong Haibin was restless, this was obviously deliberately embarrassing, and it was very dangerous for the convoy to be stranded on the Weishui ice without shelter on all sides.
At the same time, in the temporary headquarters of the 17th Route Army, which was only ten miles away from Weishui, Yang Hucheng frequently sneered.
"Damn, he Dong brought someone here, and he came overnight, is he going to come to Xingshi to ask about the crime, since this is the case, let him dry him first, the wind on the ice in Weishui is good, let him enjoy it."
"Junzuo, after all, he is Wu Xiaoliang's person, if he tears his face, it won't be good for us."
The staff around Yang Hucheng were carefully persuading their military commander not to act rashly.
"You don't know, Dong is a weasel here to give a New Year's greeting to the chicken, is it possible that we still have to smile accordingly, don't worry, they are not ready to turn their faces, our 17th Route Army is in the west and north of Xi'an, if we really want to fight, we have a big deal to retreat to Gansu, and it is really impossible to join the Red Army is also a way out."
"The military seat is angry talk, the birds in Gansu don't, and they have to face the local warlords when they go, and they can't join the Red Army, and these subordinates don't have a big impact, but the military seat is different, break your fingers and count, which one votes for the head of the Red Army and has good fruit to eat, first send a political commissar to come, and then gradually set it up, and then engage in a few more campaigns to clean up or something, either the power will be left behind, or even the life may be lost in a daze......"
Yang Hucheng said of course angry words, relatively speaking, although Wu Xiaoliang is pressing step by step, but after all, he has not done things absolutely, he can feel that many times Wu Xiaoliang is a hand, but the actual situation is not optimistic, the living space of the Seventeenth Route Army in Shaanxi has been gradually compressed This is also a fact, since Wu Xiaoliang came, he took a group of people stationed in Xi'an to Sanyuan to quell the rebellion, and when he returned, he found that it seemed difficult for his people to go back.
Therefore, Yang Hucheng chose to wait and see in Xianyang for his own safety, and several staff members around him were chattering there, and he seemed to be deaf to it, until the hour hand pointed to twelve, and then ordered his subordinates to go to the ferry to give an order and let Dong Haibin come in.
The cold wind on the ice of Weishui was biting, the temperature in the jeep was so low that it could freeze, and the people in the car were still frozen despite wearing cotton clothes, cotton pants, and high leather boots in wool.
"Junzuo, Yang Hucheng doesn't seem to want to see us, this Weishui ice is too dangerous, and accidents may happen at any time, so it's better to ......"
Dong Haibin tried his best to persuade Wu Xiaoliang to return to Xi'an, but Wu Xiaoliang was noncommittal, until Dong Haibin couldn't bear to negotiate again, and the other party actually agreed to let him go, the car engine started, and the roar swept across the ice.
