Xu Liejun, chairman of Guizhou Province, is by no means a stupid person, otherwise, Chairman Jiang would not let him go, let him do the position of a feudal official, Yang Yongtai, secretary general of the Military Commission of the National Government, is a high-powered figure, and in front of Chairman Jiang, he is also very important, but he is not Chairman Jiang.

Moreover, according to what Xu Liejun learned, there was no personal grudge between Yang Yongtai and Tang Qiuli, which made him even more suspicious that Yang Yongtai was interested in borrowing troops for his own purpose, and the water in it was very muddy, but he knew that the old man was strict with the army, and this soldier was not yet accurate, did Yang Yongtai send this surnamed Wang to fool himself and achieve his own goals?

Director Wang saw Xu Liejun's doubts, and scolded in his heart, "What an old and cunning guy, he has become like this, and he is still looking ahead, if it weren't for Li Zongren and Bai Chongxi to take the lead, such a good thing would not have fallen, and you Xu Liejun, who is so poor, scolded in his heart, but there was an unfathomable smile on his face.

Director Wang turned his head to look around, leaned his head closer to Xu Liejun, lowered his voice and said: "Chairman Xu, you said that the authorities are confused, don't you want to think about it, without the instruction of Chairman Jiang, Secretary-General Yang can mobilize so many troops?" You are also a close confidant of the commission, otherwise, the central government will send troops to help you restore your territory, such a good thing can fall on your head, and you will look forward and backward, I am afraid that the commission will be very disappointed! ”

After speaking, he took out a warrant, Xu Liejun had not seen Chairman Chiang's handwriting, and at a glance he could see that it was true, which read, "Order Yang Yongtai, Secretary General of the Military Commission of the Nationalist Government, to immediately proceed to restore the problem of confusion in the administrative divisions of the five southwestern provinces, and if necessary, to use force." ”

Xu Liejun's heart suddenly opened a window, the sun with rain and dew, when the head sprinkled down, refreshed, all over the body, since the old man spoke, how can there be a reason not to do it? Don't take advantage of the situation, that's a fool! Xu Liejun suddenly got up and said as if he swore an oath: "Liejun is willing to serve the work of the commission, and it is incumbent on him to carry out the instructions of the commission!" ”

However, in Xu Liejun's heart, there is still a mystery, what is the intention and intention of coming to such a hand after Tang Qiuli's main forces are all transferred to Burma? Is it to completely turn his face with Tang Qiuli?

In fact, not only Xu Lie didn't understand, but everyone didn't understand, he Jiang suddenly had this action, even Tang Qiu left him, and he couldn't figure out the true intentions of Jiang someone, however, he could roughly guess some of Chairman Jiang's thoughts, received some American-style equipment, and was bold enough, and wanted to call for your own rear base, and all of them were moved into the Indochina Peninsula and away from him.

With the backing of the 11 divisions of the Central Army, Xu Liejun was full of courage, and he was fed up with Tang Qiuli's cowardice, taking advantage of the fact that the main force of the independent division was entangled by the Japanese in Burma to restore his own territory.

When Tang Qiuli freed up his hand, the dust would settle down, and when the time came, the Nationalist Government would issue another official document, and he would be justified, and look at the soldiers of the brigade that Tang Qiuli sent to Guiyang, what was the name of the "Guiyang First Garrison Brigade of the Guangdong Provincial Garrison Command," isn't this a clear bully? Why did your soldiers from Guangdong Province come to my Guizhou to guard, just by virtue of this one, you will not be finished with them!

However, Xu Liejun also knows his position, and he can't command the Central Army of these 11 divisions wearing the uniforms of the Guizhou Provincial Security Forces, don't look at today's military meeting, he sits on the main seat in a big way, that is the decoration, these division commanders of the Central Army are reporting to the lieutenant general who is sitting in his hands.

This lieutenant general, named Guizhou Provincial Garrison Commander, is actually a section chief of the Second Division of the Military Command Department of the Military Commission of the Nationalist Government, named Liao Huaizheng, and is a confidant of Chen Cheng, director of the Military Command Department.

Xu Liejun can only use the strength of about one brigade of the former Guizhou Provincial Security Command, but more than 3,000 people, although the strength is small, but these are all his hardcore henchmen, in such a difficult situation in northern Qianbei, they have not changed their courts, these people, for the independent division troops who took their bowls of food, gritted their teeth.

I think that at the beginning, when the troops were stationed in Guiyang, they didn't eat and drink spicy food all day long, they were short of money, and those buying and selling shops, any one, could make ten or dozens of oceans, and the days were quite nourishing, but Tang Qiu left a word, Guiyang couldn't go back, therefore, Xu Liejun's brigade took the lead, followed by seven divisions of the Central Army, and rushed to Guiyang.

Three hours later, a reinforced platoon-sized garrison brigade patrol team of 58 people, all killed, the news reached Guiyang, the city was shaken, the brigade commander Colonel Huang Zhixiang, while quickly reporting the news to the Guangdong Provincial Garrison Command, while pulling the troops to the northern suburbs of Guiyang, arranging a defensive line, ready to meet the battle.

The First Garrison Brigade of Guiyang of the Guangdong Provincial Garrison Command is a local unit, and in the battle sequence of the independent division, it is not even a second-line unit, and the level of equipment cannot be compared.

A brigade with Xu Liejun fought all day, and at the cost of more than 800 casualties, this group of bandit troops who were eager to enter Guiyang was greatly damaged, and in front of the position, more than 2,000 corpses were left, but Xu Liejun's soldiers were not allowed to take a step forward, but the seven divisions of the Central Army troops that followed were overwhelming, and the brigade commander Huang Zhixiang knew that Guiyang was difficult to protect.

It is also thanks to Liao Huaizheng, who commanded the operation, to be cautious, before coming, Chen Cheng gave him a face-to-face instruction, "Huaizheng, when you go to Guiyang, you must be cautious, Tang Qiuli's troops have very strong mobility and combat ability, and all the central army units are not their opponents, you must be sure that the independent division troops in Myanmar can only attack Guiyang without the action of returning reinforcements."

When Xu Liejun's soldiers were beaten to the ground and returned defeated, Liao Huaizheng did not plan to attack Guiyang immediately, he also had to see the movements of the main force of the independent division in Burma, so Chen Bing in Xiuwen, north of Guiyang, adopted a posture of being ready to attack at any time, and he gave himself the time to attack Guiyang, which was set three days later, that is, on August 29, at five o'clock in the morning.

Three days was enough time to see the movements of the main force of the Independent Division, and it also gave the defenders of Guiyang enough time to retreat, so after Xu Liejun came back in a hurry, he asked Liao Huaizheng to immediately start attacking the defenders of the Independent Division in Guiyang. ”

As soon as Xu Liejun saw Liao Huaizheng's face, he knew that he couldn't move this master, so he kept his mouth shut in amusement, but at today's military meeting, Liao Huaizheng had to let himself sit in the main seat, didn't he deliberately embarrass himself? With eleven division commanders, the one who listens to himself? Even the dignified army general, the chairman of Guizhou Province, sneezed, and some people ridiculed, it's really ***! Xu Liejun thought indignantly.

Liao Huaizheng's military deployment, there are no tricks, the troops to the north, east, and west of Guiyang, surrounding, leaving only the south, the division commanders are puzzled, Liao Huaizheng did not explain much, so he announced the dismissal of the meeting, leaving only Xu Liejun, where is he angry in a daze.

Don't look at Liao Huaizheng is the commander of the army appointed by Chen Cheng, and he also has his own plans in his heart, others don't know clearly, but he knows that Tang Qiuli is very powerful, for the independent division defenders in Guiyang City, Liao Huaizheng doesn't want to kill them all, it is best if they know the danger they are facing, abandon the city and retreat south, so that they can occupy Guiyang without bloodshed.

Not only did he complete Chairman Jiang's secret order, but he also did not make a feud with Tang Qiuli, otherwise, if all the defenders of the Guiyang Independent Division died in battle, then he Liao Huaizheng would be the culprit who killed more than 6,000 people in the Independent Division, and he would not be able to understand the hatred with Tang Qiuli, with Tang Qiuli's character, could he spare himself? How is Townenburg? It's not the same as being killed by Tang Qiuli!

Tang Qiuli couldn't find Chairman Jiang or Minister Chen, but he was wearing the hat of a commander, so he could run? Once Chairman Jiang submits to the soft child, he will be the scapegoat, Xu Liejun's head alone is not enough to calm Tang Qiuli's anger, there is room for everything, if possible, he even wants to advise the commander of the defenders of the independent division in Guiyang City in person, "Withdraw, it is convenient for you and me, the best of both worlds," Of course, Liao Huaizheng would never tell anyone these inner thoughts, including his wife.

Major General Chen Han, commander of the Guangzhou Provincial Garrison Command of the Independent Division, although he did not know Liao Huaizheng's true thoughts, seized this rare opportunity, and on the one hand ordered the First Brigade to garrison the city, strengthen the fortifications of the city, and wait for reinforcements, and on the other hand, urgently mobilized all the mobile forces in the garrison area, a total of five brigades, to rush to the aid of Guiyang in the starry night.

This is already the most troops that Chen Han can mobilize, in the direction of Fujian, as well as the Japanese army across the Taiwan Strait, can not draw Fujian's troops, previously, Tang Qiu left the telegram, and consulted Chen Han's opinion, "Chen Han, can Guiyang hold on for two days, reinforcements can arrive, if it is not possible, garrison the first brigade, immediately evacuate Guiyang, temporarily avoid the edge to avoid losses." ”

Chen Han's reply was, "Stick to Guiyang, don't give Xu Liejun any chance," Tang Qiuli agreed with Chen Han's opinion, so the four brigades transferred back from Burma all reinforced Guiyang, as for the Gui army in the direction of Nanning and the Sichuan army in the west of Guizhou, as long as they hurt Xu Liejun, the leading dog, they would naturally be completely eliminated.
