At the end of December 1936, the Nanjing government announced that Zhang Xueliang's "rebellious behavior and intention to murder the boss" were handed over to the Nanjing government for trial! At the same time, he called Xi'an and demanded that Jiang Dingwen, Chen Cheng, and Wei Lihuang, who were detained during the Xi'an Incident, be released back to Nanjing.

For a while, public opinion was in an uproar! The Northeast Army is even more indignant!

"No! I disagree!! Liu Qiwen, the commander of the 115th Division of the Northeast Army, had a calm face and said to the veteran Wang Yizhe: "Now that Nanjing has made it clear that it wants to rectify the commander, where will we return the commander after we release their people?!" I don't agree with that!! ”

Wang Yizhe of the 67th Army of the Northeast Army is a veteran of the Feng Department, and he has been serving in the Northeast Army since he was trained at the Baoding Army Military Academy in 1920. Moreover, the "Detailed Explanation of the Infantry Drill Code" compiled by him is also a military book for the junior officers of the Northeast Army.

"Jingyuan! Now that the commander is detained, if we continue with the Nanjing hard top, there may not be any good results. But I saw Wang Yizhe saying bitterly to Liu Qiwen.

"Since the three people are to be released, the rest of the detained central officers and the 50 fighter jets and crew members who have been seized can also be released together. This will not only show that our Northeast Army hopes to unite and absolutely obey Chairman Chiang's orders, but also will help win the release of the commander-in-chief and return to Xi'an......"

"Free fart!!" Ying Detian, Zhang Xueliang's personal secretary and secretary of the "Anti-Japanese Comrades Association", said to Wang Yizhe with red eyes: "You are betraying the Northeast Army!" You are licking his shoes for Jiang Zhongzhen!! If you let those people go, the commander will be able to come back?! Jiang Zhongzheng is not such a person at all!! ”

Ying Detian's scolding was a bit excessive, how can he say that Wang Yizhe is also an old man of the Northeast Army! Almost all of the people present looked at the "Drill Code" he wrote to lead the troops, and he scolded Ying Detian like this.

"How do you talk?!" He Zhuguo, the commander of the Central Cavalry Army, shouted at Ying Detian: "Aren't we worried about the safety of the commander?!" But now that he is fighting to the death with Nanjing, do you think the commander can fall well? ! What if they hurt the Commander?! ”

"Then I'll take someone to Nanjing! I'm desperate, I have to get the commander out too! Sun Mingjiu's eyes were red, and he said to He Zhuguo and the others!

"Confused!! The civil war was stopped by the commander and General Yang after so much hardship and risk. Are you just going to let their efforts go to waste?! ”

Wang Yizhe said to Sun Mingjiu bitterly. He also knew that Sun Mingjiu was a person that Zhang Xueliang valued very much! It is the core force of the Northeast Army in the future.

"If you do this, you will ruin all the efforts of the Commander and General Yang! It is to trap the commander in injustice! Sinners of History!! ”

"It doesn't work, it doesn't work! It's all wrong to do anything, and when you find out that the commander has been killed by Jiang Zhongzheng! Liu Qiwen yelled at Wang Yizhe and the others: "Simply." Don't do it, don't do it! We took people to kill them directly! Combined with the 17th Route Army, I don't believe that Jiang Zhongzheng can still hold the commander to death! ”

At this time, the main battle, the main battle and the two sides are arguing! The scene was even more chaotic. The anger of the crowd is getting bigger and bigger! Whether it is Wang Yizhe or Liu Qiwen, they are already very impatient!

None of them could convince anyone, and Wang Yizhe still kept a little calm. But Liu Qiwen's eyes gradually turned red, the main battle faction was originally composed of young and strong soldiers of the Northeast Army, and the anger could not be small!

Seeing that the Lord and the faction led by Wang Yizhe were blindly seeking perfection, I couldn't help but feel a wave of anger from the bottom of my heart!

"Messy !!" But at this moment, the door of the conference room suddenly opened! I saw an old man in an old-fashioned military uniform suddenly standing in front of the conference room!

This old man is majestic, and his waist is as straight as a javelin! With a gaze as strict as a prison, he swept across the venue fiercely! The crowd looked back. I couldn't help but take a breath! I don't dare to squeak.

"Auxiliary...... Assistant, why are you here?! Wang Yizhe reacted first, and respectfully gave a military salute to the comer! Incomparably respectful Word. The person who came was the auxiliary commander who came from Fengtian - Zhang Zuoxiang!

said. Wang Yizhe respectfully moved out of the way. And Zhang Zuoxiang walked to the main seat with a calm face, but did not sit down. Instead, he looked coldly at the backbones of the Northeast Army and said in a deep voice.

"I'm not coming?! If I don't come, the Northeast Army will fall apart! Look at you guys. Now Han Qing has nothing to do! You're arguing with yourselves, are you going to fight next?! Or kill all the dissenting opinions?! Learn from the Japanese to play 'Heavenly Punishment'?! ”

"Mess!!" Everyone was scolded by Zhang Zuoxiang and didn't dare to squeak, if Zhang Xueliang was the highest prestige in the Northeast Army, and the young Zhuang faction and the old faction were convinced, only Zhang Zuoxiang!

Zhang Zuoxiang doesn't like to fight for power, but he likes to promote juniors. And for Zhang Xueliang's care and love, it is unanimously recognized! is benevolent and righteous, and when Guo Guizi was in turmoil, the old man knelt down and saved the young Zhuang generals who were in rebellion with Guo Guizi.

Therefore, he scolded the old school and the young Zhuang faction in the Northeast Army and did not say anything.

"Those Nanjing's are all released to them!" The assistant marshal came, and after scolding him politely, he began to order: "It's useless to detain those people, and it costs us food!" ”

"Auxiliary marshal......" Ying Detian didn't dare to be as mad as he was at Wang Yizhe, this old man was full of prestige! was mad at him, and he didn't dare to borrow the courage of Detian.

"Did I say that the commander won't save me?!" Zhang Zuoxiang was stunned, Ying Detian didn't say anything, he knew what this kid was thinking.

"Let those cubs go, if he Jiang Zhongzheng still detains Han Qing! If you didn't say that, let's call all the way! Beat until he releases him! Zhang Zuoxiang is not polite, the tiger's eyes are full of fierceness! Said with a cold face.

Wang Yizhe was a little anxious, and said to Zhang Zuoxiang: "Auxiliary marshal, if we don't say that we won't fight, and the efforts of the commander and General Yang Hucheng to stop the civil war will be completely wasted......"

The rest of the people supported Wang Yizhe for saying this, but they were all silent. Even Liu Qiwen had to admit that if he worked hard, how could the Northeast Army be the opponent of hundreds of thousands of Central Army?! What's more, the Seventeenth Route Army and the Red may not be able to help!

At this time, a big man walked out of the door again! This man is wearing a completely different military uniform from the Northeast Army and Zhang Zuoxiang! As soon as this big man walked into the door, everyone felt a tiger spirit permeating the conference room!

"Can't beat it?! Our national defense army old Maozi and Japanese cubs have all fought, can't they beat him Central Army?! But when he saw the man who came in, he snorted coldly: "If he Jiang Zhongzheng wants to have this ability, he won't be confused by Japanese cubs in Fujian and won't dare to squeak with on his face!" ”

When everyone saw this man, their hearts suddenly lit up! They all know this man. It turned out to be the father of Tu Qianjun, the most trusted person around the old handsome Zhang Zuolin and the current commander-in-chief of the National Defense Forces of the three eastern provinces-Tu Sancang!

"You! People just deducted the six sons. You're in chaos for yourselves! Can this be a big deal?! Tu Sanpao was not polite, and scolded directly at everyone: "You make trouble!" Foolish! Monkey business!! I made a fuss in the conference room! Ball! ”

Everyone was in a different mood in front of Tu Sancang. Speaking of which. The father and son of the Tu family faced Zhang Xueliang, which can be said to be benevolent and righteous. Lao Tzu slaughtered three cannons, and almost took his life in order to save Zhang Zuolin.

His son Jinan fought a good battle, and later went to the United States to protect Zhang Xueliang's authority and pressed Yang Yuting and others. The Middle East Road. The Northeast Army suffered heavy losses! There are also a lot of internal turmoil.

It's still the son of this one, and he came back from thousands of miles away! First of all, Shi Yousan, who was in turmoil in the pass, cleaned up, and when he turned around, he forced Lao Maozi to bow his head on the Middle East Road!

Since then, the tiger has been stationed in Mongolia to guard against another invasion of Lao Maozi. And 918 is not considered to be the father and son of the butcher family, and Zhang Xueliang can't live with it.

It was Zhang Xueliang who gave up first under the hard persuasion of the Tu family's father and son, and the Tu family's father and son acted angrily. This can not be regarded as snatching the foundation, it is better than falling into the hands of the Japanese, right?!

But speaking of which, there is always an unhappiness in my heart! The Wehrmacht is now developing very well, and it has more than one million troops, thousands of fighters, and hundreds of combat vehicles. Even regions with self-developed and complete industrial chains.

The Northeast Army, on the other hand, was confused. Compared to the Wehrmacht, it's not half a chip! That's heaven and earth!

"You follow my starling brother to train the troops. I'm going to Nanjing tonight! "I scolded it. Tu Sanpao said to this group of men from the Northeast Army: "He, Jiang Zhongzheng, if he releases people, he will just pay it back, if he doesn't let Lao Tzu go, he won't mind taking someone to get it!" ”

Tu Sancang's words. With a categorical ruthlessness! Hearing this, the generals of the Northeast Army couldn't help but swallow their saliva. The words of the people who slaughtered the three cannons were different from their helpless grief and indignation.

This is directly the threat of nakedness! There is no other reason, the Wehrmacht has this ability and ability! and the Japanese can fight in a scarry, then the Central Army is just delivering food in front of them!

After saying this call, Tu Sanpao did not stay in the conference room. He walked out of the conference room like a gust of wind, and the planes belonging to the three eastern provinces were already waiting at the airport.

boarded the car, and accompanied by Yang Yuting, Pao Ye boarded the plane and flew directly to Nanjing.

Tu Sanpao left, and Zhang Zuoxiang looked at the generals of the Northeast Army who were still stunned and shouted angrily: "What are you doing?!" Hurry up! Let go of all the Nanjing cubs, tell them! If Jiang Zhongzheng doesn't let people go, Lao Tzu will lead troops to pick up people!! ”

"Yes!!" This time, none of the generals at all levels of the Northeast Army had any objections! "Wow~" all stood up at once, and responded loudly to Zhang Zuoxiang!

Subsequently, the entire Northeast Army began to operate in full force! The idea of combat was transmitted to officers and men at all levels. At the same time, Zhang Zuoxiang also had a secret meeting with Yang Hucheng of the Seventeenth Route Army.

After the secret meeting, the seventeenth road also began to prepare for war! Troops at all levels were gathered, and everyone was distributed live ammunition! A strong murderous aura once again permeated the ancient city of Xi'an......

At this time, Li Liejun, who was elected as the presiding judge, came to Jiang Zhongzheng's home to pay respects. This is also to test Jiang Zhongzheng's opinion, although Feng Yuxiang and Li Liejun both have the intention of giving a light sentence, but if Jiang Zhongzheng does not nod, this light sentence is impossible to achieve.

Under the guidance of the guards, Li Liejun came to Jiang Zhongzheng's reception room to wait. Not long after, Jiang Zhongzheng came to the reception room under the escort of the guards, and Li Liejun hurriedly got up to greet him.

Jiang Zhongzheng nodded and said hello, then sat down and said to Li Liejun without even greeting: "How does the presiding judge handle this case?!" ”

Li Liejun couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, but then subconsciously said his thoughts: "Zhang Hanqing seems to be rebellious in Xi'an, and he has the intention of murdering the boss, but he can change his mind and personally send the chairman back to Beijing, and I hope the chairman will be lenient." Forgiveness and release. This move made the world worship the chairman of the committee, and his mind was magnificent! ”

There was a pause. Li Liejun looked at Jiang Zhongzheng's unhappy face, but he still gritted his teeth and continued: "In the past, there were two soldiers in my country, one was to make Guan Zhongxiang for Qi Huan's public shooting hook; The second is to meet the temple people. Can they be used as a reference in this case? Pray for verification! ”

"Humph!!" Jiang Zhongzheng snorted coldly, but did not make an evaluation. Li Liejun couldn't help but feel a sinking in his heart. He knew that Jiang Zhongzheng would not allow Zhang Xueliang to be sentenced lightly.

"Since the national government has appointed Lie Jun as the chief judge, everything should be handled in accordance with military law." But Li Liejun is unwilling to bow his head, this is his bottom line! In accordance with military law.

"You can handle it carefully." Jiang Zhongzheng also seems reluctant to talk about it. I just said this casually and then stopped talking. Li Liejun also felt bored, and after a pleasant greeting, he offered his farewell and left the Jiang family.

After leaving Jiang Zhongzheng's home, Li Liejun's face became gloomy. He could see that Jiang Zhongzheng had no intention of judging at all. The purpose is revenge!

Li Liejun remembered that he had talked to another judge, Lu Zhonglin, about this trial, and Lu Zhonglin's thoughts were: Asking without judging is the best policy, trying without judging is the middle policy, and taking all the questions, trials, and judgments is the lower policy, and we should strive to abide by the best policy. It is necessary to take the middle policy appropriately, and the next policy must not be done.

Hey, hey, hey...... You Jiang Zhongzheng is holding us on the black pot, so as to avenge yourself! Li Liejun thought secretly in his heart.

Just as his car was leaving. saw another car drive into Jiang Zhongzheng's home. Saw the car. His face couldn't help but froze! Could it be that something big is happening?!

He knew that car, it was a car belonging to the Military Command Bureau! This kind of car appeared in Jiang Zhongzheng's home. Nothing good is bound to happen......

"What?! Someone from the Wehrmacht is coming to visit?! In Jiang Zhongzheng's study, Dai Li's confidant was standing respectfully drunk. Hearing Jiang Zhongzheng's question, Shen Zui immediately replied.

"Yes! Chairman, this is a telegram from Yang Yuting, Minister of Foreign Affairs of the National Defense Forces. Minister Tu of the Military Affairs Department of the three eastern provinces is about to make a secret visit, and he is already on the plane to Nanjing. ”

Jiang Zhongzheng nodded and couldn't help but fall into deep thought, and casually asked Shen Zui, "Do you have any special news from your military command?!" ”

"Our sources indicate that there was a meeting in the three eastern provinces after Zhang Xueliang returned with the chairman. However, the specific content, time and place of the meeting are not known. After the meeting, planes took off from Mukden Airport. Unknown destination......"

Jiang Zhongzheng nodded, it was not easy to have these news. After being silent for a while, he instructed Shen Zui: "Your military commander will organize and do a good job in the security of the airport." When the man comes, you bring him here. Don't alarm anyone......"

"Yes!" Shen Zui responded, and then asked Jiang Zhongzheng if he had any other orders. After receiving a no-answer answer, Shen drunk bowed and left.

After leaving drunk, Jiang Zhongzheng himself fell into deep thought. He was a little puzzled as to why the Wehrmacht was moving at this time. When it comes to the National Defense Force, Jiang Zhongzheng's thoughts are undoubtedly extremely complicated.

Zhao Kuangyin said: On the side of the couch, how can you allow others to snore. But this premise is that the people who sleep on the side of the couch are the people you can clean up, and now the tragedy of Jiang Zhongzheng is that the three eastern provinces are not the people he can clean up.

Even in the past, the national defense forces of the three eastern provinces were also a man-eating tiger for Jiang Zhongzheng! And now, compared to the three eastern provinces, Jiang Zhongzheng is like a little man wearing a long shirt and holding a toothpick, but the three eastern provinces are like a devouring tiger armed with steel teeth, iron claws, and goggles!

It's not a level at all, how can you raise the heart of confrontation?! If you don't get picked up, that's good!

Fortunately, the three eastern provinces don't seem to want to clean up his appearance, and they are basically burying their heads in development. Even if some areas are collected, they are all frontiers that Jiang Zhongzheng cannot recover, such as Xinjiang, Xikang, Yunnan, etc. There was little conflict between the two sides.

When suppressing bandits, Jiang Zhongzheng was worried that the three eastern provinces would intervene. So they were a little constrained, but in fact, they didn't see any action in the three eastern provinces. At least the troops on the surface were not moved.

During the entire process of the Xi'an incident, the three eastern provinces also did not say a word. It looks like I'm playing soy sauce, and only at the end of the negotiation did I send someone to mean it. And Yang Yuting, as a representative of the three eastern provinces, didn't even say a word at the venue, so people don't know what they think.

Jiang Zhongzheng suppressed bandits in Fujian and Jiangxi, and the three eastern provinces did not squeak. Red retreated all the way, and Jiang Zhongzheng pursued the three eastern provinces without squeaking. Chiang Zhongzheng clashed with the Japanese, and the three eastern provinces fought in Korea and negotiated with the Japanese to pick up the 52nd Division and again remained silent.

Jiang Zhongzheng suppressed bandits in Xi'an, but the three eastern provinces were still silent. Jiang Zhongzheng was detained by Xi'an, and the three eastern provinces remained silent. Anyway, as long as it is not involved in foreign wars, the attitude of the three eastern provinces seems to be three noes: no statement, no participation, and no comment!

is used to being silent, Jiang Zhongzheng himself almost treats the three eastern provinces as foreign regions! Who called the three eastern provinces "autonomous" too powerful, and the name of "autonomy" is that the three eastern provinces have been autonomous to the point that they have nothing to do with the Nanjing government.

The laws and regulations, diplomatic system, military, and government affairs are completely different from those of Nanjing...... Wait, this can basically be seen as a self-organized country! Although he still considers himself to belong to the Republic of China. But Mr. Jiang was never so arrogant as to think he could really rule there.

However, this time, the three eastern provinces, which had never said a word, suddenly sent people, which made Jiang Zhongzheng puzzled. Supposedly, this matter really has nothing to do with the three eastern provinces.

And Jiang Zhongzheng just didn't think about it, which had something to do with Zhang Xueliang. From the perspective of politicians, it is unlikely that the three eastern provinces will visit for Zhang Xueliang, which is very unnecessary.

There are many Northeast Armies of the young marshal, but the more than 100,000 Northeast Army may not be looked upon by the National Defense Force. They have a well-trained army of more than a million people. Those old fighters were even more dismissive of the Wehrmacht.

And Zhang Xueliang is not a capable general, and the three eastern provinces do not need to break the silence for him to come to Nanjing. So what is it that is worth the three eastern provinces to come to Nanjing?!

Others don't know, but Jiang Zhongzheng knows. The so-called Minister of Military Affairs who came this time is actually the father of the Commander-in-Chief of the Wehrmacht! and not Yang Yuting, who is in charge of foreign affairs. This is worth thinking about and playing.

But in any case, the military minister must not lose a single hair in Nanjing. Because his son has more than a million troops in his hands, if he knew that his father had lost a hair, maybe Jiang Zhongzheng would lose a head of hair.

Early in the morning of December 30, 1936.

A large plane flying from Luoyang slowly arrived at Nanjing Airport, and the military commanders in the airport have occupied various key points to carry out monitoring!

When the buzzing roar gradually stopped, a man dressed in a completely different military uniform from the Central Army slowly walked off the plane, accompanied by several vigilant men.

Shen Zui, who was commanding at the scene, stepped forward solemnly, gave a military salute to this man and said in a deep voice: "Shen Zui, the head of the major action team of the Investigation and Statistics Bureau of the Military Commission of the National Government, has been ordered to come to greet the chief!" ”

The Bureau of Investigation and Statistics of the Military Commission is the famous military commander! Originally, this institution was only established in 1938, but in this time and space, Jiang Zhongzheng trusted Dai Li very much! This institution appeared in advance.

"Lian Jiazi?!" The big man returned a military salute and said with a smile at Shen Zui. Shen was drunk for a moment, nodded and stretched out his hands. But I saw that there were thick calluses on the tiger's mouth.

"Hmm...... Not bad! At this age, I don't see many babies who can be as diligent as you. But when he saw this man, he smiled and said, "If you have the opportunity to go to the Northeast, remember to come to me!" name, you just report the slaughter of the three cannons! ”

This man is naturally Tu Sanpao who came from Xi'an! And in the face of such an invitation as Tu Sanpao, Shen Zui was a little overwhelmed. After a long pause, he said to Tu Sancang: "The car is ready, please go to the chairman's office with us......"

Tu Sanpao nodded, and without saying anything, he followed Shen Zui to the few cars that stopped on the side. And the few men who were with Tu Sanpao seemed to inadvertently glance at Shen Zui.

But it cooled Shen drunken bones! This look seems to be looking at a lamb to the slaughter! There is not the slightest sense of color, it is completely cold scrutiny. The coldness that seeped into the bones...... (To be continued)
