Chapter 347: Sinking

Seeing this telegram, Zhang Xue's conscience was cold! At this time, the only main force of the Northeast Army that could move was all trapped in various battlefields in North China, and the Korean garrison of the Japanese army was quickly put into the battlefield to form an extremely superior force!

The Northeast Army was unguarded, and was directly stunned by this combination punch of the Japanese! kept retreating, and finally went to Zhang Xueliang's new station Jinzhou to assemble, to be honest, Zhang Xueliang himself is also very conflicted.

If you don't fight, then once there is something in the Northeast, you will have no nest! Without the support of those heavy industries, their own troops are just stronger than the average warlord army! And he is likely to be infamous as a "traitor"!

If it is a hard fight, will it cause Japan, the Soviet Union and other countries to flank and finally lead to a joint attack and the Northeast Army will be completely lost?! After all, Zhang Xueliang didn't dare to count on Nanjing now, and the matter of the Middle East Road had already made him feel a little chilled!

Those officials and old men in Nanjing didn't know how much they expected his Northeast Army to die quickly, and accept his Northeast Army's Manchurian territory in a good name. After all, a strong warlord is never reliable for the central power. Even if this warlord seems to be friendly.

After thinking about it for a long time, Zhang Xueliang gritted his teeth and sent a telegram to Nanjing first.

After entering the customs this time, Jiang Zhongzheng invited Zhang Xueliang and Yu Fengzhi to Nanjing. It can be said that in addition to the Middle East Road incident, Zhang Xueliang still has great trust in Jiang Zhongzheng!

After entering the customs this time, out of gratitude to Zhang Xueliang, Jiang Zhongzheng specially invited Zhang Xueliang to Nanjing to report on his work. Along the way, Jiang Zhongzheng made an unusually grand reception for Zhang Xueliang's entry into Beijing.

Passing through Tianjin, Jiang Zhongzheng sent Zhang Qun and He Yaozu, civil and military officers, to greet him in person, and then Zhang Xueliang's special car was opened by the ironclad roller car and drove straight to Nanjing.

At the stations along the Jinpu line, colorful flags were unfurled, gongs and drums were noisy, and the military and the people warmly welcomed them, and slogans such as "exemplary national reunification," "messenger of peace," "general Zhang Xueliang who supports the central authorities and consolidated reunification," and "deputy commander Zhang who maintains peace and is loyal to the party-state" can be seen everywhere.

On 28 September, Nanjing deputies Chen Mingshu, Cai Yuanpei, and Zhang Ji, and Guangdong deputies Wang Jingwei, Sun Ke, Li Wenfan, and Wu Chaoshu, began talks in Hong Kong, and agreed that the 19th Route Army would take over the task of guarding Nanjing, so as to ensure the safety of the Guangdong delegates when they went to Nanjing.

At the end of September, representatives of the Ningbo side arrived in Guangzhou and held talks with Gu Yingfen, Deng Zeru, and others, and reached an agreement that after the peace conference was held in Shanghai and Chiang Kai-shek set a date for his resignation, the members of the extraordinary conference would go north to Nanjing.

Speaking of which, Jiang Zhongzheng is actually unwilling to negotiate anything with those "rebels" in the Guangzhou government. The biggest reason is that this is not the first time that these guys have made trouble, and they are also behind in the last Central Plains War.

This time it provoked this kind of war, which led to Jiang Zhongzheng having to let Zhang Xueliang transfer troops back from outside the customs to participate in the war, which objectively gave the Kwantung Army a chance!

And at the beginning, Jiang Zhongzheng didn't expect that the Japanese would be so ambitious! actually thought of swallowing the whole of Manchuria in one bite, not like Jinan, but just asking for some benefits, rights and interests and the like to retreat.

At this time, most of the entire three eastern provinces had been occupied by the Japanese army! Jilin surrendered to the enemy, and the main towns of Heilongjiang fell! Jiang Zhongzheng came to his senses at this time, and this time it seems that it is not so easy to solve! But at this time, the strength of the Japanese army was no longer thin!

After the incident broke out, the Central Department of the Japanese Army finally revealed their hideous nature! On the 20th, the Central Headquarters of the Japanese Army sent an additional mixed 8th Brigade from the Japanese mainland, and transferred the headquarters of the 20th Division, the mixed 38th Brigade, and a heavy bombing flight squadron from Korea to reinforce the Kwantung Army!

Subsequently, the Nenjiang detachment of the Kwantung Army attacked the defenders north of the Nenjiang Bridge! At that time, Ma Zhanshan, acting chairman of the Heilongjiang Provincial Government and acting deputy commander of the Northeast Frontier Army stationed in Jiangsu, commanded 3 brigades and 5 regiments with a total of more than 13,000 people to carry out the Jiangqiao War of Resistance! Helplessly, the Japanese army had received all kinds of support, including equipment and troops, and after paying heavy losses, Ma Zhanshan had to lead his troops to withdraw from the provincial capital Qiqihar.

At this point, the Japanese army occupied almost most of the entire Northeast! And their strength has increased to nearly 100,000!

Jiang Zhongzheng was anxious, so he was helpless against Zhang Xueliang's telegram asking for advice! As for whether to stick to Jinzhou, in fact, he can't make up his mind!

In the conference room, Sun Ke shouted at Jiang Zhongzheng with red eyes: "What else is there to discuss?!" Hit! Why don't you fight?! People beat and bullied people to the end, and you have to be patient?! Then don't let these soldiers do it!! ”

And Zhu Peide, who is the chief of staff, couldn't help but sneer when he heard this! looked at Sun Ke and said slowly: "Fight?!" What to fight?! Do you think that you literati can fight a war by touching your lips?! Fighting is a death! It costs money! It may even be humiliating and humiliating!! ”

Saying that, Zhu Peide took a deep breath and looked at Jiang Zhongzheng and said slowly: "In my judgment, the Japanese army will definitely not attack with a single unit of the Kwantung Army!" It is very likely that the garrison army in Tianjin, the garrison of Shanhaiguan, etc., directly cut off the back road of the Jinzhou troops, and then directly encircled and annihilated the troops of the Northeast Army in Jinzhou! ”

"If that's the case, Jinzhou will only be able to hold on for a week at most! And there were no soldiers to help in the pass, so I reluctantly sent troops to arrive, and the war was over! ”

Hearing Zhu Peide's words, Sun Ke's eyes widened! He roared, "Are we just going to watch the Japanese come in?!" Is there nothing we can do?! What kind of government is this?! What kind of shit country is this?! Such a government, such a country, such an army is better than nothing!! ”

Sun Ke's words directly scolded most of the people, and many people had to shake their heads helplessly. Zhu Peide ignored Sun Ke's words and continued to say in a deep voice: "In my opinion, there are two paths: one is to go all out, and the other is to negotiate peace with Japan. Fighting, huge losses. And, it's up to the government. ”

After speaking, Zhu Peide stopped talking. He sat directly on the chair and closed his eyes, while the rest of the people were silent. Who would dare to say anything at this time?! Say fighting?! Zhu Peide made it clear that he was not sure to win this fight! It may also be annihilated!

Say peace?! You can't run away with the crime of a traitor, and the political risk in the future is too high! This is not the choice of these politicians and old oilmen at all! So for a while, everyone in the conference room suddenly became an old monk who practiced closed meditation. The eyes look at the nose, the mouth looks at the heart, and no one speaks.

"I still stand by my opinion! We must defend Jinzhou!! I saw Sun Ke yelling at Jiang Zhongzheng: "We must defend to the death!" Otherwise, how can we face the Chinese people?! Why do you face all the soldiers?! ”

After speaking, Sun Ke ignored these old politicians and left the venue directly. Then, Zhang Xueliang received three consecutive emergency calls from Nanjing! These telegrams were all sent by Sun Ke, and it was seen that they were full of words that were said in the end, that is, Zhang Xueliang wanted to defend Jinzhou!

Zhang Xueliang didn't say anything, and directly called back to ask for the supply of guns and ammunition. But the telegram was filmed in Nanjing, and there was no follow-up, and at this time there was already a fierce battle for half a day! And Zhang Xueliang also found out that the Tianjin garrison army had been launched!

So I sent an urgent telegram to Nanjing again: please ask the air team to support and allocate medicine for rescue! But after a long time, the telegram he was waiting for was still the one he wanted to keep. And the telegram did not even mention guns, ammunition, medicines, air forces, etc.!

Zhang Xueliang is desperate! After the loss of Mukden, in fact, the ammunition of the Northeast Army was already extremely limited! Without the supply of ammunition from the Mukden Arsenal, he wouldn't even be able to fight a big war! If you continue to fight, you will really run out of ammunition and food!

At this time, Rong Zhen, who was ordered to guard Jinzhou, also knew the news! Immediately, he couldn't help but scold angrily: "I'll him!" No food, no ammunition! Let's defend it! I'm too! Guard! I'll guard your grandma's legs!! ”

Immediately, Zhang Xueliang ordered Rong Zhen to withdraw directly from Jinzhou City before being surrounded by the Tianjin Tun garrison......

At the same time, he sent a telegram to Nanjing: "The central government does not allocate a penny of food and wages, does not issue a single shot or bullet, but only sends orders to resist the enemy, and obviously intends to order the Northeast Army to sacrifice in vain, so the Northeast Army is put to death." I sacrificed without worry, but the soldiers of the Northeast Army died tragically because of me! I don't do it! ”

At this time, in the headquarters of the Third Army in Cullen, the military son once again summoned all the generals of the Third Army to hold the last meeting of the Third Army in his headquarters......
