Chapter 190: Cai Tingkai was forced to leave the army

Cai Tingkai was stunned, stood up suddenly, and looked at Mao Weishou in front of him fiercely. At the beginning, Mao Weishou's eyes were still a little evasive. But then I thought that I couldn't be suppressed by Cai Tingkai's momentum, so I glared at Cai Tingkai without showing weakness. Mao Weishou said very clearly just now, the 19th Route Army is now at the end of its rope, whether it is to break through and retreat, or to rise up to meet the enemy, it cannot escape the fate of extinction. In that case, then please leave the Nineteenth Route Army! Let me lead the 19th Route Army to find a new way out and leave some seeds for the 19th Route Army! What way out Mao Weishou can have is nothing more than defecting to Jiang.

Cai Tingkai's heart was cold at this time, Cai Tingkai had already heard that Mao Weishou was suspected of collaborating with the enemy. But Cai Tingkai never believed it, because Mao Weishou was from Jiangxi, and the 19th Route Army was born in the Guangdong Army, and most of the officers were Cantonese. In history, after the Fujian Incident, Lao Jiang was very curious and asked Mao Weishou, why did you, a Jiangxi person, be promoted so quickly in the Guangdong army? Mao Weishou's answer was all about fighting bravely, charging forward and getting love. Not bad! Whether it was in the Eastern Expedition or the Northern Expedition, Mao Weishou fought bravely, took the lead, and made many military exploits, so he was loved by Jiang Guangnai and Cai Tingkai, and he came to his current position step by step.

Cai Tingkai looked at Mao Weishou in front of him in disbelief, as if he didn't know Mao Weishou at all. The person in front of him is still the brave and warlike henchman who picked it up by himself! Mao Weishou in front of him became so familiar and so unfamiliar, Cai Tingkai's heart was cold. Even Mao Weishou betrayed himself, what about the others? Cai Tingkai didn't dare to think about it anymore, his body shook violently, and then he sat down weakly on the chair.

On January 18th, the headquarters of Xianyou City was busy. Staff officers shuttled back and forth, and people kept sending the latest war briefings to Jin Zhao's hands. Jin Zhao's brows furrowed even tighter, and at this time, Xu Wenqiang came over and whispered something in Jin Zhao's ear, Jin Zhao stood up suddenly, his brows furrowed deeper, but there was excitement in his eyes.

"What's going on?" Seeing this, Xie Jinyuan hurriedly asked.

Jin Zhao sighed and said, "The military seat was forced away by Mao Weishou, and before leaving, the military seat ordered the troops of the army on the one hand to be under the command of Mao Weishou!" Brother Zhongmin, our opportunity has come. "At this time, the spies sent by Lao Jiang have been controlled, and now the headquarters are all Jin Zhao's cronies, so Jin Zhao is not afraid of revealing secrets.

Saying that, Jin Zhao strode to the huge map hanging on the wall, Xie Jinyuan, Xu Wenqiang, Li Qiuyuan and others surrounded him, Jin Zhao looked at the map for a while and asked, "Where is Wang Gengbu now?" ”

"I just received news that Chief Wang has led his troops to the vicinity of Tuling." Li Qiuyuan said and pointed to the location of Tu Ling on the map, which was between Xianyou and Hui'an.

"Good!" Jin Zhao nodded and said, "Li Mo'an's tenth division will be called to him!" Tell him that he must settle the battle as soon as possible, and after defeating the 10th Division, he will immediately go south to Quanzhou. Jiang Dingwen ordered Li Mo'an's 10th Division to outflank the area from Xianyou to Hui'an and cut off the rear route of the 19th Route Army. After Jin Zhao received the news, Jin Zhao and others decided to send Wang Geng to lead more than 9,000 people to Tuling in advance to set up an ambush. In order to deal with the Fujian Incident, Jin Zhao summoned a division of troops totaling more than 10,000 people in one go, most of which were assigned to Wang Geng's command. Thanks to Jin Zhao's subordinates who are in charge of the land with five counties, relying on the people's heart system, they have also accumulated a lot of summoning points in this year, otherwise they would really not be able to summon so many people. As for the origin of these people, it has been explained above, and it has not aroused the suspicion of Wang Geng, Xie Jinyuan and others.

Jin Zhao turned his head to Xu Wenqiang and said, "I will write two letters immediately, and you will send a few reliable people to bring Cai Tingkai and Weng Zhaoyuan respectively." In addition, the Wuyi Mountain Reading Division was notified to launch an attack as planned. ”

Jin Zhao turned his head to Xie Jinyuan again and said, "Start the arrangement immediately, ** plan, first defeat the eighty-third division in front of you." ”

After saying that, Jin Zhao stopped paying attention to everyone, turned around and walked into an office next to him, and an hour later, Jin Zhao walked out with two envelopes, and then handed them to Xu Wenqiang and said, "Remember, you must hand them over to Cai Tingkai and Weng Zhaoyuan in person!" ”

"Understood!" Xu Wenqiang nodded, and then took the two letters and went down to make arrangements.

Jin Zhao picked up the horsewhip on the table and strode out, "Zheng Fugui, go to the front line with Lao Tzu to have a look." ”

In fact, outside the current Xianyou City, there is a fierce battle going on. After the 19th Route Army retreated south, Liu Huan's division of the 83rd Division of the Central Army followed all the way to Xianyou, and was blocked by Zhang Junsong's division of the 3rd Division of the People's Revolutionary Army outside Xianyou City. Because in the original battle of northern Fujian, Jin Zhao always stood still, so he was suspected by Cai Tingkai, so he sent the Shounian Department of the Third Military Region to monitor Jin Zhao. And Ou Shounian handed over this task to Zhang Junsong's department, so Zhang Junsong's tasks became two, one was to block the Central Army, cover the retreat of the main force of the 19th Route Army, and the second was to monitor Jin Zhao.

After Zhang Junsong arrived at Xianyou, he met with Jin Zhao first, and he wanted to touch Jin Zhao's bottom first to see Jin Zhao's attitude. The two talked secretly for a long time and finally reached a consensus. Although both of them graduated from Huangpu, Zhang Junsong is a first-term student of Huangpu, but the two have been staying in the 19th Route Army, and they were not trusted by Lao Jiang, and this time they participated in the Fujian Incident.

Neither of them wanted to give up military power, and now the only way out is to defeat Lao Chiang's Central Army encirclement and suppression, even if they have to negotiate with the Central Army in the end, at least they have the capital to negotiate, according to the current situation, if they do not defeat the Central Army, the Nineteenth Route Army will eventually be disbanded, and finally the two decided to take a risk. So Zhang Junsong fiercely blocked the central army outside Xianyou City. In order to dispel Zhang Junsong's doubts, Jin Zhao sent more than 2,000 people from two regiments under his command to Zhang Junsong for command.

"How's it going?" As soon as Jin Zhao walked into Zhang Junsong's division, he couldn't wait to ask.

Zhang Junsong, who was lying on the table and looking at the map, just shook his head heavily and said, "Not good?" Liu Huan attacked very fiercely! ”

Zhang Junsong's third division, the Weng Zhaoyuan Brigade during the Battle of Songhu, was the main force in the 19th Route Army, and its combat effectiveness was not weak, but seeing Zhang Junsong's sad expression, Jin Zhao knew that the situation on the front line was not optimistic! Jin Zhao chatted with Zhang Junsong for a while, and he knew the general situation on the front line. At the beginning, in the face of the vanguard of the 83rd Division, Zhang Junsong ordered the troops to take the initiative to attack, rampage all the way, and defeated a regiment of the vanguard of the 83rd Division. But then after Liu Jian led the main force to arrive, he gradually stabilized the battle line and began to launch **, and the offensive was fierce, Zhang Junsong's troops were unable to follow, and began to retreat!

Jin Zhao said with a smile, "It seems that this Senior Liu is worthy of his reputation!" It's a rare tiger general! Liu Jian also graduated from the first phase of Huangpu.

Zhang Junsong glanced at Jin Zhao dissatisfied, "Now is not the time to grow the morale of others!" ”

Jin Zhao waved his hand and said, "Senior Zhang, don't worry! These 83rd Divisions are the elite of the Central Army, although they are not as good as the 87th and 88th Imperial Forest Army, but they are not far behind. It is the most elite division under the 17th Army, which once participated in the Great Wall War of Resistance, and its combat effectiveness is not weak, and with the fierce general Liu Xuechang, it is not easy for Senior Zhang to fight like this with a weak brigade! "Although Zhang Junsong is also a division, his division has just been reorganized from a brigade, and the strength and weapons and equipment of the 83rd Division are much worse than those of the 83rd Division. Although it has been strengthened by Jin Zhao's two regiments, Jin Zhao doesn't want to expose his strength too early, and the more than 2,000 people sent out are all reorganized from the previous security regiment! Naturally, the combat effectiveness cannot be compared with that of the main forces.

Zhang Junsong looked at Jin Zhao and said, "I know that you still have the main force of 3,000 people in your hands, now is the time to take it out, right?" ”

Jin Zhao waved his hand and said, "Senior, don't worry! Judging by our current intelligence, the Central Army is now heading south only with the 83rd, 36th, and 10th divisions. The rest of the Central Army has not yet moved south, or is still on the way, so let's leave the 36th and 10th Divisions alone. We only care about the 83rd Division in front of us, and it can be said that the 83rd Division is now alone in depth. Isn't he the elite of the Central Army? This time, we are going to encircle and annihilate the 83rd Division in one fell swoop and eat the elite of the principal, do you think the principal will feel distressed? As he spoke, Jin Zhao walked to a small sand table next to him, pulled down a small flag representing the 83rd Division, and kept playing with it in his hand.

"Shhh Zhang Junsong couldn't help but gasp, and looked at Jin Zhao in front of him in disbelief, "Meng Bo, you also said just now, the 83rd Division is well-equipped and its combat power is not weak!" Even if you add the 3,000 fresh forces in your hands, you can only defeat the 83rd Division at most. It is impossible to encircle and annihilate the 83rd Division in one fell swoop, Meng Bo, your appetite is too big, be careful! ”

Jin Zhao didn't explain, just smiled and said, "It's already afternoon, please hold on for a long time, I will lead the main force to attack the two wings of the 83rd Division tonight, and then I will also ask the senior to cooperate with the reactionary **!" We defeated the Eighty-Three Divisions in one fell swoop! ”

"Good!" Zhang Junsong agreed, and then Jin Zhao got up to say goodbye. (To be continued.) )
