Chapter 968: Yu Hanmou's Celebration Banquet

Even the 15th Army, the vanguard of the Japanese army's northward attack on Guangzhou, Yamashita Fengwen's 15th Army, also turned around and moved closer to Nanning, and the main forces of the Japanese army staying on the Leizhou Peninsula also gathered in the direction of Nanning, as if they were preparing for some big move.

Tang Qiuli was depressed in his heart, and he was ready to punch in the air, there was a feeling of vomiting blood, the big net was spread, but the big fish of the Fifteenth Army slipped away, if Yu Hanmou's Cantonese army was already in place, when the Fifteenth Army of Fengwen turned around and headed west at the foot of the mountain, at least he could bite off a piece of fat, and he couldn't let this guy retreat.

Feng Jiwu's five field infantry brigades are still lurking on the south bank of the Moyang River, even if they cross the river to pursue now, it is too late to cross the river to pursue, if Yu Hanmou's 50,000 horses can intercept on the front line of Luoding, as long as the five brigades on the right flank are given two days, Yamashita Fengwen will not want to leave Guangdong happily, it is useless to say anything, every qiē is a good wish, Tang Qiuli can't wait to strangle Yu Hanmou immediately.

After being depressed for a long time, Tang Qiuli gave the following order to Colonel Chu Tian, the leader of the special operations detachment, "The commander of the Chu detachment, all the special operations detachments, immediately go deep into the area near Nanning, follow the direction of his main persuasion to assemble, and find out the real intentions of the Japanese army. ”

On the way to Nanning where the main force of the Japanese army was assembled, there were countless pairs of eyes staring at them, including the 15th Army, which was inexplicably advancing westward, and it did not leave the sight of the Chutian special operations detachment, and by 14 June, all the circumstances had been ascertained, and the direction of the Japanese army's next attack was Guizhou, and the combat target was the Central Army troops that had established a defensive line in southern Guizhou.

After receiving Chutian's report, Tang Qiuli was quite hesitant, taking the current position of the independent division's corps, Changfeng's directly subordinate corps in Guilin, Ma Chaoyang's Southeast Mobile Corps and Feng Jiwu's six field brigades in Guangzhou, and Tang Qiusheng's corps, as a strategic reserve, were in a powerful position in Changsha, Hunan.

However, the attitude of the Central Army, especially Chairman Chiang, made him really uncertain, just whether the old man could take the elite troops of the Central Army and fight the Japanese to the death, and cooperate with himself to destroy the Southern Dispatch Army of Terauchi Shouichi, Tang Qiuli could not understand Chairman Chiang's thoughts, and with the lesson of Yu Hanmou, when the time came, he Jiang would come to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, and the spearhead of the Japanese army would inevitably be aimed at him, and the pressure was not ordinary.

After thinking about it again and again, he decided to hold his troops still, and at this time, he pressed all the main forces on him, at least Chairman Chiang was happy to see it, and he would not say a word "thanks", he fought to the death with the Japanese, he had hundreds of thousands of troops in his hands, and he might not be able to deal with it for a few years, and he knew very well what this number one boss of the national government did.

Another point, Tang Qiuli thought that the time had not yet come, and in less than three months, the war in Europe would break out in full swing -- His Excellency, the German Führer who was full of ambition, had already sharpened his sword, and Poland was his first target, and then, Britain and France declared war on Germany, and World War II officially broke out.

Taking advantage of the fact that the traditional European powers such as Britain and France were trapped in the European battlefield and were too busy to deal with the German blitzkrieg, the Japanese would start to covet the long-standing ambition of Southeast Asia, which was rich in natural resources, especially oil resources, so that Japan, from Emperor Hirohito to every citizen, coveted it.

In the final analysis, it was Tang Qiuli's plan to drive away the tiger and the wolf, and to take advantage of the opportunity to strike at the Japanese army to enter Southeast Asia in the name of the Japanese and take the opportunity to take advantage of it.

In the northeast and the Far East, hundreds of thousands of Kwantung Army and Zhukov's Soviet Red Army confronted each other in the area of the Outer Khingan Mountains, and no one could help anyone, so they were exhausted, and when Germany began to attack the Soviet Union, the situation in the world would change drastically, and Liu Tiehan's Northeast Advance Command Force, which occupied western Liaoning, should come in handy and take back all the Far East regions occupied by the Soviet Union.

At present, the only requirement is that the Central Army troops under Chairman Chiang can withstand the Japanese army's attack for three months, and as long as the world situation changes fundamentally by the beginning of September this year, the capture of Chongqing and the elimination of Chiang's forces will not become the only target of the Japanese army.

Chairman Jiang has hundreds of thousands of elite Central Army in his hands, and who has been recuperating, Tang Qiuli does not believe that with the strength of the Central Army, the Japanese army will not be blocked in Guizhou, unless the old man does not want to fight to the death with the Japanese, after thinking twice, Tang Qiuli feels that he should still inform Chairman Jiang in Chongqing of the current situation of the Japanese army.

"Chongqing, Chairman Chiang Xunjian, according to the accurate intelligence, all the Japanese troops sent to the south have been assembled in the area of Nanning, Guangxi, and judging from the situation of the Japanese army, the direction of its next attack is Guizhou, which is actually an outpost to seize our Chongqing, please ask the chairman to urge the defenders in the direction of Guizhou to pay attention to guarding against the attack of the Japanese army." This is Tang Qiuli's telegram to Chairman Jiang, he can only say so much, too much, the old man can't help but be suspicious, but not beautiful.

After receiving Tang Qiuli's telegram, Chairman Jiang did turn over a few things in his heart, and he didn't quite believe what Tang Qiuli said in the telegram, the Japanese would not occupy Guangdong and Guangxi, what would they do when they attacked Chongqing? Even if you want to fight, it won't be so fast, some time ago, the Gui department suffered a big loss in Nanning, and Chairman Jiang was really happy for a while.

Li Zongren and Bai Chongxi, the two rivals, have pondered for more than ten years, but they have always been unable to eradicate the power of the Gui family, Guangxi is actually in a semi-independent state, which has become a heart disease of Chairman Jiang, and now, the Japanese have suffered a great loss of vitality and heavy losses from the Gui department, and Chairman Jiang is also happy to watch the fire from the other side, and kill people with a knife, which is originally his forte, and what makes him regret is that the Japanese actually stopped fighting, leaving a breath for the Gui family, and he is also like Tang Qiuli, more depressed, but the depressed thing is different.

Chairman Chiang really couldn't figure out what the Japanese were thinking, so he consulted with his staff and worked out a plan to wait and see what happened.

After reading Tang Qiuli's telegram several times, he couldn't figure out the true meaning, so he had to gather Yang Yongtai, Zhang Qun, Chen Cheng, and Gu Zhutong, who was kicked out of Shanghai by Feng Jiwu, together, and the telegram circulated around, and several bigwigs didn't see Tang Qiuli's malicious intent from the telegram anyway, but looking at the old man's meaning, he was afraid that this was a conspiracy by someone Tang.

He finally decided to order all units of the Central Army in southern Guizhou to heighten their vigilance, enter a state of combat readiness, and strictly guard against the Japanese invasion of the north.

Subsequently, Chairman Jiang sent a telegram back to Tang Qiuli, "Vice Chairman Tang, the current situation is complicated, and the troops defending the front line in southern Qiannan have been prepared to resist the Japanese invasion of the north before, and they are tired and troubled," a few words, the tone was as light as boiled water, the meaning was obvious, I don't appreciate it, we have been preparing like this before the telegram came.

Looking at Chairman Jiang's reply, Tang Qiuli could only smile bitterly, he had nothing to say, this is fine, anyway, I have already reminded you, it is your business to listen or not, this matter was put down like this, however, Tang Qiuli still took the method of preventing trouble before it happened, and ordered Chang Feng's directly subordinate corps to go out from Guilin to the front line of Rong'an and Sanjiang, and prepare to flank the Japanese army when the Central Army could not support it, so as to reduce the pressure in the direction of Guizhou.

The current situation is like this, seeing that the Japanese army's attack on Guizhou is becoming more and more obvious, and he can only wait for the first battle between the Central Army and the Japanese army, there is no major matter, Tang Qiuli turned his attention to how to get rid of Yu Hanmou, and he also carefully considered the reason for getting rid of Yu Hanmou.

After all, he is a feudal official, and there are many sequelae, but Yu Hanmou's appearance makes Tang Qiuli really not at ease, if the troops of the independent division are driven out of Guangdong by the Japanese army, Yu Hanmou must be a Han material, Guangdong and Guangxi are both rear bases for the future competition in Southeast Asia, how can people relax with the uncertain factor of Yu Hanmou.

Guangxi's Li Zongren and Bai Chongxi have formed a blood feud with the Japanese, there is no possibility of being a Han, Yu Hanmou is different, he was originally a guy who stole the upper position, this person is not removed, the future is endless, for the stability of the two Guangzhou, Yu Han has to kill.

To this end, he ordered the troops of the five brigades of Ma Chaoyang's corps to move closer to Yunfu and Deqing, and after solving Yu Hanmou, the Guangdong army troops stationed here were disarmed on the spot.
