Chapter 196: Political Punishment (2)
Chapter 196: Political Punishment (2)
Xue Ru announced all the decisions, making the people in the meeting in a daze, what kind of decision is this? Is it really a crime that Xue Ru bears alone? The Military Commission of the State Government decided to remove Xue Ruxue from the post of Captain Xue Xue Hu and officially promote her to the rank of major general in recognition of her merits in the war against the Japanese army. Liu Yuanshan was promoted to temporary major general and served as commander of the Snow Fox Corps, Chen Ruihe was deputy commander, Wu Yuzhao was chief of staff, Dai Zong took over as the commander of the independent division, Li Zhipeng took over as the commander of the 36th division, and Guo Jingchu no longer served as chief of staff.
The second order was that the Snow Fox Corps should be transferred to Ji'an for rest and recuperation, and it would be placed under the command of the Ninth Theater, and the Snow Fox Corps would immediately find a way to cross the Yangtze River, enter the Ji'an area, and accept the command of the Ninth Theater.
There are two places that make people in a daze, the first is that Wu Yuzhao is no longer the division commander and has been promoted to the chief of staff of the Snow Fox Corps, is this a rise? It's actually a drop. It looks like he is the chief of staff of the corps, but he has no power to actually lead the troops. But Dai Zong became a division commander as a colonel, which is impossible in the national army, right?
The commander of the chief captain turned out to be Liu Yuanshan, and he was only a temporary major general, Xue Ru was obviously dismissed, which was considered a punishment, but he was officially promoted to major general, what is going on? Since there is this order, why does Xue Ru still have to resign by telegraphing? For a time everyone did not understand.
Chen Ruihe didn't say a word, he was relatively calm, he understood that this was not a punishment at all, it was a political show, and it was for others to see. The order of the military council arrived first, and Xue Ru resigned, believing that it would be followed by the notice of punishment from the military council.
Transferred the Snow Fox Corps to Ji'an, Jiangxi, this is a place far away from right and wrong, and then look at the people who put the Snow Fox in, the commander of the Ninth Theater is Xue Yue, who did you hand over the Snow Fox to? Do you still need to ask? You can see it at a glance.
He is no longer the division commander, he has become the deputy commander as a major general, and Liu Yuanshan has become a commander with the rank of temporary major general, all of this seems to have been arranged by Xue Ru, but why, Chen Ruihe didn't understand.
However, there is one thing he understands, that is, Xue Ru does not trust himself, and the 36th Division cannot be in the hands of Chen Ruihe. Li Zhipeng is also the original person, not the person of Snow Fox, but he is equal to Xue Ru who got it single-handedly, of course, he is grateful to Xue Ru.
Since then, the 36th Division has completely returned to Snow Fox, and he has not transferred himself, I'm afraid it is also to temporarily calm his heart and stabilize the 36th Division, right? He sighed in his heart, and finally understood a little, I am afraid that the Anqing Massacre was arranged by Xue Ru, this little girl is too ghostly, and at the same time ruthless, so many people have become her stepping stones.
But Chen Ruihe didn't understand why Xue Ru had this ambition but wanted to resign as the commander of the corps? In fact, she didn't listen to orders, and judging from Snow Fox's current loyalty, the military council couldn't do anything. The second one I don't understand is that Snow Fox is bent on resisting the war, why did he withdraw to Jiangnan? is still so far away, Jiangxi can be said to have no devils at all, why is this? He couldn't figure it out, and he couldn't help it, because everyone couldn't figure it out.
Xue Ru knew in his heart the decision of the military committee that this kind of order should be reported, so that all the troops on the battlefield would know that the Snow Fox Corps had been replaced. If it is not reported, it is not that Xue Ru can still command, anyway, others don't know, why didn't they report? That is, Chiang Kai-shek understood what Xue Ru's report meant.
Indeed, Chiang Kai-shek's decision was made based on the situation reported by Xue Ru, he didn't know how to deal with the snow fox, and wanted to follow Lin Wei's advice, but he received a report from Xue Ru, proposing that the snow fox had a continuous war and needed to rest, and wanted to withdraw across the Yangtze River to rest for a while. In addition, the impact of Anqing's affairs was too bad, and Xue Ru would let Chiang Kai-shek handle it well, so he attached a list of troop adjustments, one of which made Chiang Kai-shek agree to this plan.
In a word, Snow Fox is the Central Army and the army of the party-state, and I don't want to become the Wu Army, and Anhui is not a place to stay for a long time. How could Chiang Kai-shek, who had played political tricks all his life, not understand how much effort Wu Canzhou, who is now president of the Senate, did for his son, and how could Chiang Kai-shek not understand? The Wu family did not want to be in the Senate, but wanted to conduct the political council, which Chiang Kai-shek knew better, but unfortunately the Wu family did not control the army. This is the period of the Anti-Japanese War, and the four major families will not allow the Wu family to raise their heads.
As soon as Xue Ru said this, Chiang Kai-shek immediately understood that Xue Ru wanted to take refuge in himself, not the Wu family, and the Gui family, which made him very happy, if it wasn't for Xue Ru to make this matter, he would be able to reuse Xue Ru immediately. can fight and be so loyal, how can he refuse it, Song Xilian recommended Xue Ru, he should enter the Whampoa Military Academy, of course Chiang Kai-shek understood what his subordinates meant.
originally planned to let her enter Lu University, which had just moved to Chongqing, but considering that Xue Ru was too young and needed time to verify, she obeyed Xue Ru's arrangement and gave the order according to her wishes. Because the third branch is in Ruijin, Jiangxi, the Snow Fox Corps was transferred to Ji'an. Besides, it is Xue Yue who commands it, at least Xue Ru will not resist, although Chiang Kai-shek is not too relieved about Xue Yue, but he knows that he is a professional army, not those politicians. Xue Ru's Snow Fox Corps doesn't look like there are many people, but her combat power is the strength of several legions, and she can't be guarded against it, and she can't help but envelop her.
There are too many warlords in China, if Chairman Jiang doesn't want it, but there are many people who want it, and they were worried that Xue Ru would join the Communist Party, but Zhao Fengzao did a good job in the Chaoxian incident, and was promoted to the commissioner of the special inspection district of Anhui Province, which is also equivalent to the governor.
In this way, it was also difficult for Li Zongren to control Anhui, and for many reasons, Chiang Kai-shek sent someone to Anqing to see Xue Ru, but in fact, Xue Ru himself did not realize that she was already important, and he was stunned that Chiang Kai-shek could agree to himself so happily.
In fact, Xue Ru has a reason for doing this, if she wants to gain status, if she wants to be supplemented, and expand her influence, she must be close to Chiang Kai-shek, what Gui or Yunnan or Sichuan, it is nothing. As soon as the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression ended and the Kuomintang withdrew to Taiwan, these people did not become a climate. Finally, looking at the general trend, I know that going to Taiwan will not end well, so it is better to take advantage of the CCP's eagerness to end the war and resume the construction of New China, change course and revolt and surrender, and get a big official again.
Therefore, Xue Ru was not stupid enough to want to take refuge in them, and this time he made himself an excuse for Wang Jingwei, a big traitor, to fight Chiang Kai-shek, which Xue Ru could not tolerate. But Wang Jingwei has not defected yet, and he is still in Wuhan, so Xue Ru can only take a step back. Sure enough, Chiang Kai-shek ordered that in addition to exempting Xue Ru from the order, other orders were issued publicly, so Li Xueru also had to make a gesture in return, let Liu Quan issue a telegram, take the blame and resign, and no longer serve as the captain of the Snow Fox.
Only Chen Rui can guess some of these things, how can Liu Yuanshan and Lai Changwen have that level, of course they don't know. But looking at Liu Yuanshan as the commander, Chen Ruihe as the deputy commander, Wu Yuzhao as the chief of staff, and the commander of the independent division replaced Dai Zong, of course it is understood.
Don't look at Xue Ru as nothing, Miss turned out to be nothing like commanding the snow fox, it seems that this time it is still the same, so she accepted this arrangement, and the troops began to prepare to cross the river. Opposite Anqing is the 22nd Division of the Japanese Army, for this devil division, Snow Fox is very crazy now, he doesn't pay attention to it at all, as long as he crosses the Yangtze River and goes ashore, he doesn't care about him at all. The danger came from the river, because in the area from the opposite Wangjiang River to Chizhou, there was the 3rd Squadron of the Japanese Navy.
This time, there is no place to grab a small steamer, and you can't sit on a wooden valve, and there are 20,000 people, so how to cross the Yangtze River will become a problem.
Looking at Liu Yuanshan's face, Xue Ru said, "Didn't you let me find a way to cross the river?" You are now the commander. ”
Liu Yuanshan said: "You are a young lady, of course you have figured out a way, I still don't understand why you want to cross the river." Besides, Miss, where are you going to go if you resign? Not to follow the troops? ”
Xue Ru said: "That's not necessarily, I may go back to my hometown to have a look." ”
When she said this, these people asked strangely: "Miss, do you remember where your hometown is?" ”
Among these people, only Xiao Yong didn't ask, he understood, it turned out that Xue Ru planned to go to Myanmar, that was her real hometown, and Shaoguan, Guangdong was fake. But Xue Ru didn't let him say it, so he didn't say it, Xue Ru said: "No, so I want to go and see if I can remember." ”
Li Wenxiu said: "I'll go back with you, although there are no devils there, it is also very dangerous." ”
Xue Ru smiled: "What's the hurry, Chief of Staff Wu didn't come back, you are the deputy chief of staff, assisting Yuanshan and Deputy Commander Chen." Besides, you are in Ji'an, and it is not far from there to Shaoguan. Okay, don't talk about this, Ouyang is preparing to cross the river, the whole division is preparing, and after ten days of crossing the Yangtze River, the devil can't stop us, and the snow fox wants to go wherever he wants. ”
Ouyang Sari stood up and stood upright: "Yes, Miss, I will prepare within ten days." ”
Xue Ru nodded, arranged some details and said, "From now on, you can work by yourself, I have nothing to do." ”
These people are noncommittal, Xue Ru, the commander, has become a young lady again, and this time even Chen Ruihe and they also call him a young lady, because the commander has become Liu Yuanshan again, and the snow fox is preparing to cross the river.
Anqing's 48th Army also knew that the snow fox was preparing to cross the river to the south, Wei Yunsong was hurrying to set up defenses, the snow fox was there, and the Japanese army did not dare to attack, but the snow fox was gone, so it was impossible to say. At the same time, Li Zongren, who returned to Dabie Mountain, ordered all troops to get ready, in order to become one with Anqing and keep Jinzhai safe, he decided to recapture Tongcheng, so that Jinzhai, Huoshan, Tongcheng, Shucheng, Chaoxian and Quanjiao would form a tight defensive circle to block the Japanese army in the north.
Xue Ru still admires Li Zongren's military level, but he doesn't know if he has the ability to recapture the fat, so that the generals from Zhongzhong to Northern will all be the national army, and the results of the Japanese army in a few months will come to naught. In fact, this is a good time, after all, the Battle of Wuhan has just ended, and the Japanese army is also making adjustments.
But Xue Ru planned to leave, so she didn't care about these anymore, after all, many troops in the Fifth War Zone could not be commanded by Xue Ru. She felt that she was choking enough, because when she was cleaning up the 27th Division, Bai Chongxi did not take the opportunity to recapture Lu'an Mall and Gushi, and now she has lost the opportunity.
King Tokumiya Tsugahiko has deployed heavy troops around Hefei, and it is good to be able to hold these base areas. For a few days, Xue Ru took his newly established guard squad to visit Anqing, which must be an ancient city of hundreds of years, and the gentry and rich people who were afraid of Xue Ru were afraid of killing people again in anger, so they obediently carried out the government's orders, and the lives of more than 1,000 people completely shocked Anqing and the surrounding areas, and there was unprecedented good law and order around.
Besides, more than 1,000 people were killed, and a large number of properties were confiscated, and all of them were given to the people of Anqing, so that Xue Ru, who was scolded as a female devil, had a good popularity among the people of Anqing. In the golden autumn of October, it is November at the beginning of winter, the climate here is pleasant, and Xue Ru is also in a good mood, it seems that some people really can't give them face, which has also become better.
"Miss, someone wants to see you, saying it's from Chongqing." A herald soldier found Xue Ru in Qingsong Temple to report, Xue Ru was stunned, Wu Yuzhao had no news, and he didn't come back, Xue Ru knew that he had offended Wu Yuzhao this time, and he didn't know if he could come back. But Xue Ru had to do this, she didn't want Snow Fox to become a bargaining chip for the Wu family to make political capital, I hope Wu Yuzhao can understand.
Sure enough, with Xue Ru's telegram, the military committee of the national government
The decision was made that Xue Ru was dismissed from the post of commander of the Snow Fox Corps, his military rank was reduced by one level, and he became a colonel. A month later, he reported to the third branch of Ruijin Huangpu in Jiangxi.
Looking at that position, Xue Ru was a little grateful to Chiang Kai-shek, although this guy was too selfish and maintained the dictatorship of one party and one family, he was really good to his own people. Of course, is that my own? No one attacked Xue Ru anymore, and they couldn't find an excuse. Xue Ru was not only demoted, but also the captain of the Snow Fox, which made the Japanese secret service headquarters happy.
They used those traitors in China, and finally got rid of this stinger, and the Central China Dispatch Army began to prepare, how could they recapture the area north of the Yangtze River, according to intelligence, Snow Fox will be transferred to the Ji'an area in the south of the Yangtze River, which is not the focus of the Japanese attack for the time being, and if you want to lose Xue Ru, there is nothing to fear from this army, it is best to destroy them on the Yangtze River when they cross the river.
Shunroku Hata ordered the 11th Army Okamura Ninji to pay attention to the defense of the riverbank, and at the same time coordinate the navy, the Yangtze River Fleet to block the river, and see how the snow fox crossed the river. Under such calm conditions, the undercurrent is surging, and the snow fox crossing the river makes many people worried. But Xue Ru didn't seem to be worried, and only occasionally went to the Yangtze River to see how Ouyang Sari and they were prepared.
It was blocked by the regiment directly under it, and outsiders did not know what to prepare, and the other troops were preparing ships for the transition. At this time, what did the government send people to find him? Xue Ru led Fan Tiezhu and a few of them back.
As soon as he entered his office, he saw Chen Ruihe and Li Wenxiu sitting there with a man in his thirties, and when he saw Xue Ru coming in, Li Wenxiu introduced: "This is Mr. Xi Muchong sent by the Chongqing government, * There is something important to discuss." ”
She and Chen Ruihe withdrew after the introduction, it seems that this Xi Muchong said that she wanted to talk to Xue Ru alone. Snow Fox's man left the gun behind for a person, and he didn't worry about the safety of the young lady at all, so he withdrew.
Xue Ru sat down in the back of her office, because she was no longer a commander, but was demoted to colonel, in order not to affect other people's commands, nor to affect Liu Yuanshan's authority, Xue Ru resumed her casual clothes, just like a girl.
This look, this temperament and demeanor made Xi Muchong a little dazed, of course his identity knew that Commander Snow Fox was very young, but he couldn't imagine being young to this extent, this was not young at all, it was not an adult.
But it is such a girl, everything she does is earth-shattering, and this murder incident in Anqing cannot be connected with the harmless girl in front of her.
Xue Ru looked at him a little stunned, it was no longer strange, she was used to it, and anyone who saw her for the first time had this expression. No way, who made himself younger, he is only sixteen years old this year.
He smiled faintly and said, "Mr. Xi, I came from afar, I don't know what happened to Xue Ru?" ”
This made Xi Mu Chong stunned again, what was said by a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl, Xi Mu Chong really didn't know how to get the price, but he must have a special identity, and the training he received made him not so easy to be overwhelmed. He immediately recovered his mind and said, "Major Xi Muchong, an intelligence officer of the Third Section of the Military Statistics and Survey Bureau, has seen General Xue. ”
