Chapter 181: A dilemma
That night, Professor Yang hurried over and said straight to the point: "Wei Guo, I heard that Wuhan intends to transfer the 33rd Division to the south?" ”
Zheng Weiguo poured Professor Yang a cup of tea and said with a smile: "Professor, your news is really well-informed!" ”
Professor Yang didn't hide it, smiled and said, "Didn't you already know the Dao?" ”
Zheng Weiguo nodded and said, "Yes! A big pie has come down, and I'm in a dilemma! ”
Professor Yang said solemnly: "Weiguo, you can't go the wrong way at this time!" There are all kinds of signs that Wuhan is likely to turn right! ”
Zheng Weiguo was shocked when he heard this, this day would come sooner or later, but he didn't expect it to come so soon. In his memory, the first time the Kuomintang and the Communist Party tore their faces had to wait until the end of 39, which was also the December incident.
In fact, since the beginning of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, the small actions of both sides have been continuous, but the great enemy can still be restrained at present. The December events were nothing more than a general eruption.
Zheng Weiguo thought for a moment and said, "It shouldn't be that far, right?" Besides, our 33rd Division has also made a lot of contributions, and it is also a little famous throughout the country, so the chairman is not afraid of the world's discussions? ”
Professor Yang snorted coldly and said, "Hmph, I won't comment, lest you say that I have a prejudice against him." Do you think for yourself that he is a man who is afraid of things? ”
Zheng Weiguo couldn't help but be silent, Tao Chengzhang, Deng Yanda, Shi Liangcai, Yang Xingfo, Ji Hongchang, Ren Yingqi, and Liu Zhennian sent congratulatory messages one after another, and Hu Hanmin, Li Jishen, Zhang Shaoshuai, and Yang Hujiang were also waving to him.
Professor Yang was also silent for a while, and suddenly asked, "Do you know Father Xuanxia?" ”
Zheng Weiguo said: "I have heard of it. It's a pity that we never met. ”
Professor Yang sighed and said, "He disappeared in Xi'an yesterday, and now I don't know if he lives or dies!" ”
Zheng Weiguo stood up in shock and said, "What! ”
Xuanxia's father was from the first phase of Whampoa, but he fell out with Principal Chang within a few days of reading. After the second cooperation between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party, he was appointed as a senior senator of the 18th Group Army and engaged in the united front work of the Kuomintang high-level. In April 38, Jiang Dingwen, director of the Xi'an camp, received an order from Captain Chang: to secretly sanction Xuan Xiafu, a senior staff officer of the Xi'an Office of the Eighth Route Army.
Professor Yang said sadly: "The sword soul (Xuanxia's father's character) He has always been steady, and it is impossible for him to disappear for no reason, and I am afraid that there is only one possibility for the ending!" ”
Zheng Weiguo thought back to the historical events he knew. It seems that this did happen. It's just that the timing doesn't seem to coincide. What does a mismatch mean? Because his appearance changed history.
He felt a headache, the War of Resistance had just begun, if he was killed due to the contradiction between the two parties, wouldn't it be more wronged than Dou E? After sinking for a while. He asked, "Has my identity been revealed?" ”
Professor Yang said: "It is not yet confirmed. Maybe they don't know what to do yet. Just fancy your talent! The latter sentence is a bit nonsensical, but Zheng Weiguo can't laugh.
After thinking about it for a long time, Zheng Weiguo still couldn't figure it out. Let's be honest. Although he did not agree with Chief of Staff Zhou's idea of abandoning the base area, he was eager to go to Henan. If nothing else, just to prevent the Huayuankou tragedy on June 9, 1938.
It's only late April now, and it should be too late to hurry up and go back and forth to Tianjin. But if the relationship between the KMT and the CCP breaks down early, how will he deal with himself? If you don't say anything else at that time, will the more than 10,000 people under him go to Henan and come back?
Professor Yang said, "Think about it, I'll go back first!" ”
Zheng Weiguo sent him to the door and asked in a low voice: "The situation is so complicated now, does the superior have clear instructions?" ”
Professor Yang glanced at him and said in a low voice, "There are no instructions!" You know the Tao of the truth, and the overall situation at present is the War of Resistance, and the War of Resistance must be united, and there can be no internal strife. If you are in danger, the central government will not be able to save you! ”
Zheng Weiguo thought about it, what kind of character is Ye Dada, the central government can't save him, let alone him? Hey, why is the War of Resistance so difficult? Thinking of this, he shook his head with a wry smile, and then said sincerely, "Thank you, Professor!" ”
Professor Yang smiled and said, "Don't thank me, just do your own thing!" ”
The next day, many guests came to Zheng Weiguo's small courtyard, including neighboring friendly troops, local squires who came to visit, and senators from Shanxi and Hebei who came to lobby. In some places, it is too far away, and telegraphs are sent to those who are blocked by transportation, and almost all factions and hills are in contact. Even Commander Lu in Jizhong sent a congratulatory message.
Chief of Staff Zhou said with a smile: "Division, it's lively now!" ”
Zheng Weiguo sighed and said, "Hey, you can't be quiet if you want to!" ”
Chief of Staff Zhou said: "If you are still a small security regiment leader in Ping'an County, of course you can go out of retreat." But since you accepted the number of the Ninth Independent Brigade of the Jin Sui Army, you have already entered the stadium and cannot enjoy your freedom alone! ”
Zheng Weiguo shook his head and said with a smile: "Brother Zhou's words are wrong! You only see the trees in the wind, but you don't see the grass that is trampled underfoot! Besides, the world is full of people, and it is not easy to stay out of the matter! ”
Chief of Staff Zhou said, "Then what are you going to do now?" The chief of Wei said that the envoy of the commission had already arrived at him and was about to come to Ping'an County. If you're undecided now, you'll be passive then! ”
Zheng Weiguo nodded and said, "Let's wait a little longer for this matter!" "He still follows the philosophy he cultivated in the special forces unit, and would rather miss the opportunity than take it lightly.
Chief of Staff Zhou said: "Master, there is still something to report to you!" ”
Zheng Weiguo said: "Is someone Zeng another demon moth?" ”
Chief of Staff Zhou said curiously: "How did you guess?" ”
Zheng Weiguo said with a smile: "It's not a guess, it's a report from the Luoyang Liaison Office, saying that the Third Army bribed reporters to hype up their military exploits in the southeast of Jin, and showed off everywhere with the weapons they bought from us!" ”
He found a piece of paper from the table and handed it to the chief of staff, and teased: "This is the Third Army's request for merit to the Military Commission, look at this cowhide blowing!" ”
It reads: The soldiers of the three armies, hearing the righteousness, are in trouble, and their fate is coming. On the front line, they built trenches with their flesh and blood, and they died without retreating. The position was reduced to ashes. The heart of the army is still as strong as iron and stone, the courage of the battle, and the fierceness of death. It is enough to demonstrate the spirit of national independence and lay the foundation for China's rejuvenation......
Chief of Staff Zhou couldn't help but laugh out loud before he finished reading it, and said hatefully: "Forget it, anyway, the weapons were bought by them with money." The most hateful thing is that they actually beat him up, saying that we saw that our friendly forces were in trouble and waited and watched, causing them to suffer losses, and said that you colluded with the Eighth Road to harm him! ”
Zheng Weiguo's eyes narrowed. Suddenly there was a killing machine. But he quickly calmed down. It's not worth it to be angry with such people. Besides, the countermeasures have already been arranged, so why be afraid of him.
Chief of Staff Zhou said angrily: "I took a copy of the photo and sent it to them, if they don't know each other." You can only tear your face. ”
The weapons sold to the Third Army were marked. And took pictures. The transaction site was also secretly photographed by the 33rd Division. Nominally, of course, it was not the resale of weapons, but the entrustment of the transfer of the Third Army. If this evidence is handed in. Or publish it in the newspapers, and the good name that the Third Army has just accumulated will soon be stinking on the streets, and it will be charged with embezzling friendly supplies.
Zheng Weiguo said with a smile: "Don't drive them to a dead end, stay a line, and meet in the future!" ”
Chief of Staff Zhou said, "Then let them go?" ”
Zheng Weiguo waved his hand and said, "You can't let it go in vain, you have to take back the photo money, right?" ”
Chief of Staff Zhou smiled and said, "Please rest assured, I will definitely handle this matter properly!" ”
Zheng Weiguo admonished and said, "Don't be careless, people are also veterans for many years." In terms of calculation, in terms of malice, you may not be able to win him. ”
Chief of Staff Zhou said: "Well, it is indeed difficult to force the commander of the first army to submit on weekdays, but at the moment, Commander Zeng is asking for the position of commander of the 35th Army Corps, and he will definitely not lose a big one because of a small one!" ”
Zheng Weiguo smiled: "I see. Then this bamboo pole can be knocked hard, so that the cost of going to Tianjin will be settled! ”
Chief of Staff Zhou's face changed and said, "Master, do you still plan to go to Tianjin?" ”
Zheng Weiguo nodded and said, "Well, Tianjin is a must!" No matter what the road goes in the future, every opportunity to strengthen one's own strength cannot be missed. ”
Chief of Staff Zhou said: "But I still think it's too dangerous and not worth it!" Although there are still great powers in Tianjin, it is already in the waning mountains. If you rush forward, I am afraid that you will not get any support, and there is a risk of being betrayed. ”
Zheng Weiguo said: "This risk is nothing, as long as you can get the materials and equipment urgently needed by the base area, it is worth taking some risks!" ”
Chief of Staff Zhou disagreed, saying: "Even if you buy it, I'm afraid you won't be able to buy much supplies, and there is a Japanese blockade along the way, so it is very difficult to transport them back to the base area." Instead of working so hard, it is better to directly accept the number of the Soviet Army! ”
Zheng Weiguo sighed secretly and said with a wry smile: "This piece of meat is not delicious!" By the way, did the supplies promised by the World War II zone be delivered? ”
Chief of Staff Zhou said: "It is said that the preparations are almost complete, and I think we can send troops to meet them." It's not safe on the road right now! ”
Zheng Weiguo nodded and said, "Okay, this matter must be done as soon as possible." ”
Chief of Staff Zhou said: "Oh, I almost forgot! Division, one more thing, is about anti-aircraft weapons. ”
Zheng Weiguoqi said: "What's the situation? ”
Chief of Staff Zhou said: "We now only have eight anti-aircraft guns, but there are four models, and it is very inconvenient to replenish them. Battalion Commander Long suggested that we exchange with the Eighth Route Army and replace all of them with Suluotong anti-aircraft artillery! ”
Zheng Weiguo said: "Hey, why didn't I think of it! This idea is good, and Hachilu should agree with it. ”
Chief of Staff Zhou said: "I have just tested the tone of the 129th Division, and they said that there is no problem at all. In addition, they have a suggestion. ”
Zheng Weiguoqi said: "What suggestions? ”
Chief of Staff Zhou said with a smile: "They said that they don't need anti-aircraft artillery, and hope to exchange them with anti-aircraft guns, rapid-fire guns or infantry guns!" ”
Zheng Weiguo said: "Well, they only have two divisions, and they are really not very useful. "Unless it's that kind of super cannon, it's a dream to rely on one or two small cannons for air defense. It's better to change a few flat-firing guns, and you can also hit pillboxes, turrets or something.
Chief of Staff Zhou said: "Then let's exchange?" ”
Zheng Weiguo said: "Well, you go and ask the Minister of Equipment, Lu Zhan, to see what his opinion is." Well, I would also like to ask Director Guo's opinion. He had seen other people's firepower in the Soviet Union, and he should be able to come up with a good plan. ”
Chief of Staff Zhou said: "Okay, I'll ask first, and I'll report back to you later!" (To be continued.) For mobile phone users, please go to read. )
