"Niang Xipi's, they are a bunch of losers, this way they can escape, Gu Mo San is harming the country!"

"Shangguan Ji Qing's entire army group was unable to move forward, causing the New Fourth Army Xiang and Ye Yiqian, the bandit leader, to escape. He must be held responsible for this!"

"And that Chu Xiong, who has no military discipline. Who gave him the order to run to southern Anhui? Give the Eighth Route Army power and hold Chu Xiong accountable for leaving the defense area without permission!"

…

"Zhong Zai, the New Fourth Army's banner this time is to go north to fight against Japan, and it is said to be executing your and the government's orders and handing over the southern Anhui defense area to the government;

In addition, good news has just been sent from Yanzhou. More than 9,000 New Fourth Army troops took the initiative to break through the Japanese defense line in Wucheng. They won the battle of Sunset Ridge and annihilated more than 3,000 Japanese soldiers.

He suffered heavy casualties, and was indiscriminately bombed by the Japanese when crossing the river. The troops directly under the military headquarters were out of ten and in urgent need of rest and replenishment;

Ye Xiyi requested the war zone to allocate 2,000 guns to restore the military's combat effectiveness..."

As soon as General He finished speaking, Zhongcai cursed Niang Xipi angrily;

But he really had no choice but to play tricks on Commander Ye. He was too senior and could only act rogue in response to Commander Ye's legitimate demands:

"Damn it, Niang Xipi, this Ye Xiyi knows what he wants, so he can't fight the Japanese without a gun?"

If you don’t need a gun, you can go find the Japanese yourself!"

General Chen stood up and said:

"Zhongcai, after all, Ye Xiyi is a famous general in the Northern Expedition. He is not having a hard time in the New Fourth Army. He has submitted his resignation several times. It is only 2,000 guns, so I agreed to him;

Let them send people to the Third War Zone to collect it, and also issue a commendation order to the New Fourth Army. After all, Sunset Ridge annihilated three thousand Japanese soldiers——"

At this point in what General Chen said, Zhongcai had already understood it and secretly praised:

“It is still the rhetoric that wins my heart!”

As a subordinate of the government, he still had to maintain the superficial affairs. The New Fourth Army headquarters went north to fight the Japanese under his orders. Now that they had won the battle, he did not express his displeasure.

"What Ci Xiu said is absolutely true, so we will do as Ci Xiu said and issue a commendation order to Ye and Xiang of the New Fourth Army. In addition, we will provide them with 2,000 rifles and 5,000 legal currency, and order them to send people to the headquarters of the Chief of the Third War Zone.

receive;

In addition, power is provided to the Eighth Route Army Headquarters and Ye Xiang, and they are given one month to withdraw the troops south of the river to Hebei. Anyone who violates the order will be dealt with according to military law."

The New Fourth Army troops south of the Yangtze River have all withdrawn to Jiangbei according to his order. The order for the troops south of the river to withdraw to Hebei still has one month left, so there are still reasons to take action.

Unfortunately, he ignored a cruel fact. The reason why the New Fourth Army withdrew its troops from Jiangnan to Jiangbei was because Jiangnan was the center of government rule. They were too powerful and there was a risk of being surrounded and annihilated if they did not withdraw.

In the Huanghuai area south of the river, the government has little power. With the New Fourth Army's headquarters moving north, the entire Northern Eighth Route Army plus the New Fourth Army has reached as many as 500,000 to 600,000 people. Why should we care about him?

Admiral Chen and Admiral He understood Zhong Cai's intention very thoroughly. They didn't dare to come and collect not only 2,000 guns, but also 5,000 guns. It was just a nice word.

After General Chen and others left, Brother Yunong came out of the shadows. He was waiting for Zhongcai's instructions:

"Yunong, how are things going with the Independence Brigade?"

"Back in Zhongcai, several groups of personnel have been arranged to infiltrate the independent brigade. Chu Xiong's every move is under control, including his current whereabouts;

He only has a small army of more than 200 people around him now, do we need to let him disappear?"

Brother Yunong asked cautiously.

Zhongcai thought for a while and said:

"No need for the time being. Although he violated the order and ran to southern Anhui this time, he did not choose to take action against the government;

Instead, he broke through the Japanese defense zone, which shows that he still has awe of the government.

Yu Nong, I also cherish talents. As long as Chu Xiong is fighting the Japanese and does not openly jump out to fight against the government, he will still focus on wooing and dividing;

Chu Xiong started from a humble background and had no foundation in the Eighth Route Army. Now he holds the high position of lieutenant general and brigade commander. This position is granted by the government. As his position continues to rise, his situation with the Eighth Route Army becomes more and more embarrassing.

If a tree is beautiful in the forest, it will be destroyed by the wind. When there is no reward, it is an opportunity for Chu Xiong to be jealous. At that time, your Blue Clothes Club may add fuel to the flames and draw Chu Xiong over."

Brother Yunong understood the deep meaning of Zhongcai and disappeared. Zhongcai looked at the starry sky alone and said to himself:

"Why are these generals who can fight against each other?

Chu Xiong, I still value talents, so don’t force me to do anything to you."

Yanzhou, at the foot of Pagoda Mountain, by the Yanhe River

The New Fourth Army successfully broke through to Jiangbei, suffering 1,500 casualties and annihilating 3,000 Japs. Not only did it avoid conflicts with the stubborn troops, it also allowed Yanzhou to occupy Dayi. A big stone that had been weighing on his heart for several months was finally removed by Chu Xiong.

Gone.

In a good mood, he made an appointment with his old buddy Wu Hao and Yujie boss, walked out of the cave and came to the Yanhe River;

Facing the vast land and the white snow, a collection of good words suddenly welled up in my heart:

"The scenery of the Northland, thousands of miles of ice and thousands of miles of snow!"

Wu Hao couldn't help but praise:

"Good words, are there any more?"

De Sheng laughed and said:

"No more! Chu Xiong is a very strategic kid. In the name of going north to fight against Japan, he broke out from the enemy's front. This not only avoided the risk of fighting tens of thousands of stubborn troops, but also eliminated a large number of enemy soldiers.

They blocked someone's mouth again, forcing our kind to hold their noses and issue commendation orders to the New Fourth Army. It's amazing!"

Wu Hao took the words and said:

"Zhong Cai sent a telegram to punish Chu Xiong for leaving the defense area without permission. I suggest giving him a notice of criticism, suspending him from the post of brigade commander, and letting him go directly to Yanzhou to study for three months."

The boss of Yujie immediately understood what Wu Hao meant and said:

"I agree with Wu Hao's opinion. A lieutenant general and brigade commander in Chuxiong led a small force away from the defense area without authorization. Such an opening cannot be opened. He, the brigade commander, is temporarily suspended from his duties and needs to receive a good education."

Sheng Sheng spread his hands and said helplessly:

"There are three of us, and you have two votes, so I can only reserve my opinion, pass it two to one, and let Chu Xiong report to Yanzhou secretly."

A few days later, an explosive news came out in Yanzhou. Chu Xiong, the commander of the 81st Division Independent Brigade, was reprimanded by the government for leaving the defense area without permission;

Chu Xiong was criticized in a circular, suspended from his position as brigade commander, and accepted a warning talk from the organization.

Chu Xiong's suspension attracted great attention from the enemy, ourselves, and the recalcitrant parties. Major newspapers also reported the matter in large lengths, and the reactions from all parties were mixed.

Shuzhong seemed to have smelled something, and Zhongcai no longer wanted to cause friction. Instead, he instructed his imperial literati to gather a group of mouthpieces and began to add fuel to the flames for Chu Xiong's dismissal.

Gradually, even the words "Tiger and Wolf" such as "Chu Xiong's great achievements shocked the master" and "Yanzhou demolished the mill and killed the donkey" began to appear;

A large number of thoughtful people guided public opinion and used Chu Xiong's grievances as an excuse to smear Yanzhou. The whole country's attention was attracted by this focal event.

"Brigadier, I can't figure it out! I thought only the government would do this, but I didn't expect our Eighth Route Army to be so indiscriminate."

After learning about Chu Xiong's dismissal, Meng Jiaqi was the first to stand up and express her dissatisfaction.

No wonder she was dissatisfied. During this trip to the south of the Yangtze River, the action team made a great contribution to the New Fourth Army's breakout;

While we were still on the way back, the notification reached the action team and the brigade commander was dismissed from his post. How could she not complain for Chu Xiong?

"Meng Jiaqi, do you still have organizational discipline? Execute the order! My brigade commander was fucked, but he didn't say he fucked my operations captain, so you still have to listen to me;

No one is allowed to discuss the organization without authorization, and those who disobey the order will be punished according to organizational discipline!
