Chapter 926: Breaking away from the brigade
When Tang Qiuli led all the personnel of the division to Wuhan, it was already evening, and he didn't care about resting, and after holding a meeting at the corps headquarters of the Sulu Mobile Corps and listening to the report of Tang Qiusheng, the commander of the corps, Tang Qiuli made a frightening decision and walked into the Liangguang area.
This decision was vetoed by everyone, especially the corps commander Tang Qiusheng and the adviser Guanghan, who vetoed it particularly fiercely, and they couldn't help but not worry, whether it was entering Liangguang or Hunan and other places, the situation was relatively complicated, the local forces were very strong, and the self-reliance division had not established political power in this area, and the forces had not yet affected here.
As far as Tang Qiusheng's Sulu Mobile Corps is concerned, the army of more than 200,000 people, entering strongly, and from time to time being secretly controlled by the forces of the place, supply convoys, and attacked from time to time, all say that they were done by bandits, but in Tang Qiusheng's view, it is simply a family of officials and bandits, and they are written to the Hubei Provincial Government and ask for an attack, but what they can get is perfunctory, empty words and empty words full of paper.
Ordered the county government to send troops to suppress the bandits, asked for a lot of bullets, each time it was said that the bandits had been exterminated, but the supply line was still attacked, and later, the consultant was good at light culvert design, luring the snake out of the hole, giving the bandits who attacked the supply line several fierce impacts, and heavy escort, only to extinguish the arrogance of the bandits.
As soon as the captured bandits were interrogated, the fact that they were replaced made the quite stable Tang Qiusheng angry, what kind of bandits are they, they are simply some security regiments in the premises, and there are not many real bandits, Tang Qiusheng was furious, and shot the county magistrates of several counties one after another, and all the security regiments were disarmed and disbanded wherever the brigades of the corps were stationed, so as to ensure the smooth flow of the supply line.
After the withdrawal of the central army, the security of the premises is more unlan, the local tyrants, stragglers, civil forces, jia miscellaneous, five miles and a mountain, eight miles and a commander, more than a dozen people and guns, roaring in the mountains and forests, specializing in some raids and robberies, attacking merchants and merchants, it seems that civilians are alive during the day, and at night, a few people take out knives and guns, which is a gang of bandits.
Because the Sulu Mobile Corps is ready to go to the front line at any time, and he doesn't dare to invest too much energy in the security of the premises, Tang Qiusheng knows this very well, how dare he let Tang Qiuli take this risk, if it is in Hebei, even if Tang Qiuli only takes a few people from the mountain tigers, he will not stop it.
Tang Qiuli also knew why everyone was worried and blocked, but he had to do this, since he learned that the special envoy of the state government and the special envoy of the Japanese government had used the Bagui Guild Hall in Hong Kong as a place for talks, this matter has become a lingering suspicion in Tang Qiu's head, and Chairman Jiang and Li Zongren and Bai Chongxi have reached some kind of compromise, whether this is the case, Tang Qiuli has not made a conclusion in his heart.
The main battlefield of the follow-up is in the Liangguang area, and Tang Qiuli is full of curiosity about Guangxi under the rule of Li Bai, who can compete with Chairman Jiang, and the reason why he insists on entering Liangguang is that he wants to see the tools that he can't usually see, and the terrain and landforms, customs and customs here, fighting in a strange area, Tang Qiuli does not dare to have the slightest carelessness.
Tang Qiuli invested almost all the capital of the self-reliant division here, and he couldn't help but be careless, so he had to do this, after the meeting, he left Tang Qiusheng and Yu Guanghan, and carefully said his plan and calculation to the two people, "Brother Qiusheng, Guanghan, understanding the actual situation of the place is extremely important for our next operation, our army has always been accustomed to fighting in large regiments, but this is not the north, we do not have a solid rear foundation, and it is particularly important to build a good road with the strength of the place, And having first-hand information will also be beneficial for us in the future. Tang Qiuli said solemnly.
Tang Qiusheng and Yu Guanghan did not speak, in their hearts, they had actually recognized the division commander's statement, stationed in Wuhan and Hubei Province for a few months, the two of them knew the distress of it, unfamiliar areas, strange people, and the powerful people who constantly engaged in small movements, and the hostility that could not be seen but was real, which made these two corps commanders feel quite constrained.
Tang Qiusheng gave a heavy hand several times, only suppressed the turbulence of the situation, I am afraid that the seeds of resentment have also been planted, behind it, I don't know how many pairs of fierce eyes, peeking at the news of the self-reliant army, these people, under the attack of the Japanese army, the probability of running to be Han Jian is almost 100%, so Tang Qiusheng and Yu Guanghan are very worried about the safety of the division commander, and it is also the only reason why they try their best to prevent Tang Qiuli from being placed like this.
But Tang Qiuli's words obviously persuaded the two of them, and in the end, they had to agree to Tang Qiuli's plan to enter the Liangguang region, but in terms of the safety of the division commander, he did an extremely good job, in addition to the division headquarters guard brigade, and transferred a capable guard battalion, as a guard, this battalion is completely in accordance with the standard of self-reliance of the field army, equipped with weapons and ammunition, without foreign aid, can persist in fighting for more than a week, from soldiers to officers, are veterans with rich combat experience.
As for walking, don't even think about it, all equipped with war horses, guard brigades and guard battalions, unified under the command of Shanhu, more than 2,800 people, brewed into a cavalry army, Tang Qiuli could not stop the two commanders from making a big show, according to his original intention, dozens of people can be lightly armed and simple, who knows that such a big battle is almost like fighting a small battle, he didn't dare to say this, otherwise, he couldn't even go out of the corps headquarters, so he could only stay in Wuhan.
Leaving Wuhan and going south, he entered Hunan in a few days, looking at the cavalry brigade of more than 2,000 people, light and heavy machine guns and mortars alone are enough to equip four or five companies, Tang Qiuli frowned, and did not approve of Brother Qiusheng's placement like this, he didn't know that as soon as he left Wuhan, Tang Qiusheng contacted Le Yiqin, commander of the air force of the self-reliant division stationed in Wuhan, and Chang Feng, the chief adviser of the corps directly under the self-reliant division stationed in Changsha, Hunan, and informed the division commander of the plan and whereabouts.
Le Yiqin was also anxious, and complained endlessly, "Leaving hundreds of thousands of troops and bringing such a few people is it to make everyone worry about death?" "Don't blame Le Yiqin for complaining, on the way to Germany, a scene over the Black Sea, in retrospect, still makes him break out in a cold sweat, his death is nothing, but if there is a problem with the division commander, Le Yiqin does not dare to think about it.
"Deputy Divisional Commander, what do you say?" Le Yiqin asked Tang Qiusheng for advice, "Yiqin, your air force is doing this, two fighter squadrons are in a state of take-off at any time, and the guard battalion I sent has an air-to-air liaison radio, so if the matter is urgent, you can call for aircraft support," Tang Qiusheng said.
Le Yiqin was overjoyed, this is a good way, immediately put it down, he prepared not two, but four squadrons, two fighter squadrons, two bomber squadrons, only by doing so, his heart is calmer, even if the division commander is outflanked by a regiment, it can also open the gap, this batch of bombers aided by Germany is not vegetarian, it has been tested several times, the power is amazing, and with the "Buddha Light" gasoline bomb, anyone who dares to fight the division commander's idea, it is enough to live.
Tang Qiuli, who had already entered Hunan, didn't know that for his safety, Tang Qiusheng and Le Yiqin had already been busy, and they were still thinking about relieving the brigade, when Shanhu came over and said: "Division commander, we have approached Changsha, do you want to go to the city to rest?" Tang Qiuli hurriedly shook his head, joking, seeing Chang Feng, and adding a guard battalion, a multi-regiment military force, is it to check the geography and people's conditions or go to Bingge?
"Huzi, send a telegram to Chang Feng and tell him that we will enter Guangxi via Yongzhou, otherwise, this guy will not be in a hurry to smoke?" Tang Qiuli told the mountain tiger, the mountain tiger turned around to leave, but was stopped by him again, "Huzi, follow so many troops, you say, is it the matter?" Shanhu grinned, he knew what Tang Qiuli meant, and he also felt unhappy, every time he went to a place, so many soldiers, Lao Cangsheng was already frightened and avoided from afar, and he couldn't ask anything, and he was thinking about it, Xiaoqiu also moved his mind.
"Come on, I'll put it," Tang Qiuli smiled very slyly, this guy from the mountain tiger is getting more and more clever, and he was admiring, and Mei Xue next to him said: "Qiuli, why do I think the mountain tiger has become cunning, did I learn from you?" Tang Qiuli was sweating profusely and was very shocked, but looking at Mei Xue's innocent eyes, he had to swallow back the cruel words that came to his mouth, and said extremely gently: "Xue'er, it's not cunning but clever, understand?" ”
After a while, the mountain tiger came, a little listless, followed by a major, before Tang Qiuli figured out what was going on, the major stood up and saluted, and said with a very stern face: "Tell the division commander, Yao Zhiqing, the commander of the guard battalion of the Sulu Mobile Corps Headquarters of the Self-Reliance Division, came to report and asked the division commander for instructions." ”
Glancing at the mountain tiger, the mountain tiger spread his hands, looking very helpless, Tang Qiuli understood, this matter is difficult, look at this Yao Zhiqing, the lines on his face are resolute, and he is obviously a person who is not easy to change, "This Yao battalion commander, Captain Huang has already said it just now, just follow his orders." When Tang Qiuli said this, his confidence was obviously insufficient.
"Division commander, I'm sorry, before leaving, the commander repeatedly took care of the safety of the division commander as his own responsibility, and must never leave the division commander's side, Zhiqing can lose his arm and safety, but the safety of the division commander must not be lost, this is Zhiqing's duty, forgive me," Tang Qiuli swallowed and foamed at the mouth, knowing that it was difficult to persuade an officer with such a character, but he didn't expect that Yao Zhiqing directly sealed En'er.
But he was still unwilling, so he called Yao Zhiqing aside, seeing that it meant to nag and nag, with a posture of not giving up until the goal was reached, the mountain tiger looked at the figures of Tang Qiuli and Yao Zhiqing, disappeared into a small forest, and couldn't help but ask Mei Xue, who was staring wide-eyed: "Xiaoxue, do you think Xiaoqiu can do it?" ”
Mei Xue said: "You are more cunning than Qiu Li, you can't do it, Qiu Li is even more unlike," the mountain tiger was dumbfounded, the boss was depressed, daring to be affectionate, the dignified Colonel Huang, known for his honesty and honesty, in the eyes of Mei Xue, it is synonymous with cunning, isn't this a great wrong?
