This agreement was the "Tanggu Agreement," which humiliated the country, and this agreement was another traitorous treaty signed by the Nanjing political axe and Yueben after the "Songhu Armistice Agreement" to betray national sovereignty. The treaty reads as follows:

1. The Chinese army will all quickly retreat to the areas west and south of the line connected by Yanqing, Changping, Gaoliying, Shunyi, Tongzhou, Xianghe, Baodi, Lintingkou, Ninghe, and Lutai. Thereafter, they shall not cross the line, and shall not engage in any act that challenges or disturbs them

2. In order to confirm the implementation of the first paragraph, the armed forces shall at any time use aircraft and other means to supervise the situation, and the Chinese side shall protect this and provide all kinds of convenience

3. If it is confirmed that the Huaxia Army has complied with the provisions of the first paragraph, it will no longer cross the retreat line of the Huaxia Army and continue the pursuit, and will automatically return to the line of the Great Wall

(4) The maintenance of law and order in the areas south of the Great Wall Line and north and east of the line indicated in Paragraph 1 shall not be carried out by the above-mentioned police agencies of the Huaxia side, and shall not use armed groups that arouse the feelings of the armed forces

5. This Agreement shall enter into force when it is sealed

As evidence of the above, the two representatives hereby sign the cherry blossoms

The Tanggu Agreement was tantamount to the Chinese political axe's acquiescence in the legality of the occupation of Rehe by the puppet Manchukuo and the Yue Ben, and at the same time the designation of Suidong, Chabei, and Jidong as areas for the free entry and exit of the Yue army, thus opening the door for the Yue army to further invade and occupy North China and losing part of its sovereignty over North China. Therefore, after the signing of the agreement, the Nanjing political axe did not dare to make it public, but it was still revealed and widely criticized, and finally the Chinese side deleted the "roughly" in Article 3 and the "above-mentioned police organs" in Article 4 when it was announced. The sentence was still opposed by the 19th Route Army, the Northeast Army, and the North China Army.

Although he had been prepared for this, when he learned the news of the signing of the Tanggu Agreement, Jin Zhao couldn't help but scold, "Mom, what a fucking bag!" ”。 Angry, Jin Zhao once again found Cai Tingkai to discuss countermeasures.

When Cai Tingkai saw Jin Zhao, he naturally knew Jin Zhao's intention, and said to Jin Zhao, "You know everything!" Chairman Jiang (Jiang Guangnai) and I were about to jointly issue a telegram, sternly asking the chairman of the committee why he signed such a humiliating treaty with the little devils! ”

Jin Zhao glanced at the telegram handed over by Cai Tingkai, frowned and said, "Junzao, if a telegram can make the chairman change his mind, how can there be today!" The chairman is already confused. ”

Looking at the angry Jin Zhao, Cai Tingkai asked, "Could it be that Meng Bo has any good ideas, say them and let's discuss them together." ”

Jin Zhao was speechless, and said resignedly, "I just don't know what to do, so I came to ask the military seat for advice!" ”

Cai Tingkai shook his head and said, "Now I have no other way, without the order of the military committee, if we lead our troops north without authorization, we will inevitably be labeled as a rebellion." After speaking, Cai Tingkai carefully observed Jin Zhao's reaction, from Jin Zhao's words just now, Cai Tingkai had already heard that Jin Zhao was already very dissatisfied with Lao Jiang, and now Cai Tingkai wanted to test whether Jin Zhao was willing to oppose Jiang.

Although in terms of politics, Jin Zhao is more tender than an old fox like Cai Tingkai, but he is not a fool, so he can naturally hear what Cai Tingkai means. But to Cai Tingkai's disappointment, Jin Zhao just sighed helplessly and said, "Are we going back to Fujian like this?" ”

Cai Tingkai patted Jin Zhao on the shoulder and comforted, "Let's send this telegram first!" Perhaps, under the pressure of public opinion, the chairman of the committee will change his mind. ”

"I hope so!" After saying that, Jin Zhao got up to say goodbye, and Cui Tou walked out of Cai Tingkai's headquarters dejectedly. Jin Zhao naturally did not have any hope for Cai Tingkai's telegram. In fact, after receiving the news of the signing of the Tanggu Agreement, Jin Zhao had already accepted this cruel reality and knew that Lao Jiang would not change his mind no matter what. Jin Zhao's real purpose here is nothing more than to reveal to Cai Tingkai the information that he is already very dissatisfied with Lao Jiang. Because Jin Zhao knew that Cai Tingkai, Jiang Guangnai and others were already secretly planning against Jiang at this time. After all, now Jin Zhao has thousands of troops in his hands and is still in charge of the five counties, if Jin Zhao opposes Cai Tingkai and others, it will definitely be a big trouble for Cai Tingkai and others to oppose Jiang, so Jin Zhao will deliberately reveal his dissatisfaction with Lao Jiang to Cai Tingkai. Although Jin Zhao did not make clear his anti-Chiang position, he at least sent a signal to Cai Tingkai, that is, although Lao Tzu graduated from Whampoa, he may not necessarily be loyal to Lao Jiang.

But at this time, Cai Tingkai and Jiang Guangnai were not completely dead, after Jin Zhao left, Cai Tingkai sent the joint telegram with Jiang Guangnai to Nanjing, and waited for Nanjing's reply with anticipation. The message reads as follows:

"Junzuo has repeatedly taken the red bandits as a warning that they cannot talk about resistance. However, if you think you are deeply worried, how can you get rid of it? Why did the enemy stop the attack? If the Kou does not stop the offensive and the internal suspense is indecisively eliminated, the country will not be a country, and the tragic situation of the embarrassed sinking will be well known? ……”

After reading this telegram, Lao Jiang in Nanjing was so angry that he didn't know how many sentences he scolded, Niang Xipi! A set of tea sets at hand also turned into splinters all over the ground.

Lao Jiang, who vented his mouth, then sent a telegram to Cai Tingkai, scolding Jiang Guangnai and Cai Tingkai fiercely, and at the same time, Lao Jiang ordered Cai Tingkai to immediately lead the advance column to return to Fujian.

Cai Tingkai received Lao Jiang's order, but he was disappointed but there was nothing he could do, he couldn't really raise a rebellion! It's not that Cai Tingkai doesn't have the guts, but the time is not yet ripe. Forced into desperation, Cai Tingkai could only order the troops to return to Fujian.

This northward protest activity not only cost more than 200,000 military expenses of the 19th Route Army in vain, but also returned halfway without success, which seriously dampened the enthusiasm of some officers and men of the 19th Route Army. On the way back to Fujian, many soldiers left the unit one after another because they were unwilling to go back to Fujian to suppress the Chi, and the strength of the six regiments when they set off was reduced by two regiments when they returned to Fujian.

Cai Tingkai was angry when he learned the news, handed over the two column commanders Tan Qixiu and Jin Zhao to him, pointed at the noses of the two people and scolded loudly, "What did you two do? Are you all rice buckets? There were six regiments in total, and two regiments actually ran! How did you bring the soldiers? ”

Jin Zhao whispered, "These soldiers originally volunteered to go north to resist, but they haven't arrived in North China yet, and they haven't even seen a single devil hair, so they just went back in a gray way, of course the soldiers have opinions!" (To be continued.) )
