Chapter 543: Internal and external pressure

"Order, prepare the 33rd Division to move immediately towards the Sixth Army!"

Zheng Yong held a cup of tea, and there was no sign of too much expression on his face.

"Stop moving forward at 30 kilometers and stand by on time. Order the 26th and 27th divisions of the Sichuan Army to stop moving to the direction of Tangjiaping, and send a small group of troops to reconnaissance the enemy situation. Order the 96th and 125th divisions of the Gui Army to stop moving to Guliu County. Order the 12th Brigade to advance along Xipu Road!"

The command center, which was still noisy just now, suddenly became quiet.

With a series of orders, it was obvious that the commander-in-chief had a complete plan in his mind, and a large-scale battle was about to begin. But what puzzled these staff members were almost all mobilized to stop moving forward when they were about to join the Sixth Army.

"Commander-in-chief, should these troops be pushed a little longer, if..."

The person who spoke was Qiu Shaowen, director of the Operations Department.

Zheng Yong glanced at him and ignored him: "Order the rest of the troops to shrink their defense lines and only guard against attacks by the island army. The headquarters of the 17th Army moved to Luocheng, and the headquarters of the 21st Army entered Ancheng..."

He paused for a moment, and his eyes stopped at a certain point on the map.

"Order the 173rd Division to enter Anqing to be responsible for Anqing's defense! All departments will execute the above orders immediately and convey the orders!"

The staff members who had been listening to the instructions were busy again, and the phone calls in the entire command center were heard one after another...

"Commander-in-chief, the combat situation of the island country army is becoming more and more obvious." Qiu Shaowen frowned and walked to the commander-in-chief.

"It is obvious that they want to break through the defense line of the Sixth Army, eat me 36, 98th and the Preparatory Eighteenth Division, and then push the front further. I suggest that the troops be mobilized immediately to strengthen the defense of the area, order the Ninth Army and the Eleventh Army to move closer to it, order the Twenty-one Army to replace the Ninth Army and the Eleventh Army to defend the ground, and are ready to fight the island army!"

"Think about it, think about it again." Zheng Yong seemed a little hesitant: "The Japanese pirates used two brigades and several infantry brigades. I was a little worried about whether there was any article here. They were the commander-in-chief. I had to be responsible for the entire war zone. Once this determination was made, it would affect the entire battlefield situation..."

Qiu Shaowen glanced at the busy staff outside and lowered his voice and said.

"The intelligence brought back by our intelligence personnel last time has already stated the military deployment of the island army. I think that intelligence is true and credible. If we were to be deployed according to the content of that intelligence, I think the Japanese pirates will suffer a great loss again!"

Zheng Yong took the pen and kept turning it in his hand. After that, he suddenly stopped and said.

"I will think carefully again. The order report must be sent to me every hour. No matter the battle of all or small, I must know it as soon as possible. Director Qiu, you go out to do things first..."

Qiu Shaowen sighed and walked out, and happened to meet a familiar staff officer. He asked carefully: "Director Qiu, it's strange. The troops have been mobilized, but they don't continue to advance. It is obvious that the Sixth Army is fighting alone and being beaten passively. This seems not the usual style of the commander-in-chief..."

"Cherish your feathers, cherish your feathers..." Qiu Shaowen said with a sigh.

"We are all in our hearts and say something. At that time, the commander-in-chief had nothing, so he dared to fight the island country army with one heart. Now, he is a first-class general, the first important minister of the president, and the "God of War" in the minds of the whole people. If there is a mistake on the battlefield, his reputation will be destroyed, and the reputation of the God of War will no longer exist..."

Their whispering looks fell into Zheng Yong's eyes. Although they couldn't hear what they were saying, they could guess the general content.

Zheng Yong smiled slightly, picked up the teacup and took a sip...

"Chongqing President's Telegram!"

"read!"

"I heard recently that the Sixth Army encountered an enemy, and the Ninety-Eighth Division was divided and surrounded by Japanese pirates. The situation was in danger. The 18th Division of the Preparation was still in control. The Ninth Army was close at hand and there was no movement at all. Why?

I think the Ninth Army should be... Chiang Kai-shek."

This is a telegram taken by the Chairman himself to the Supreme Commander of the Third War Zone, and the wording is very harsh. This is unprecedented for the Third War Zone, for Zheng Yong, and it is obvious that someone has made some reports to the Chairman.

"Reply. Although the enemy's true attack intentions are becoming increasingly obvious, the Japanese pirates are cunning and there may be conspiracies. I am observing carefully and sending troops immediately after the right time..."

The staff officer of the record paused and then quickly wrote it down.

The commander-in-chief is so brave. Although the president did not directly issue an order, he actually did so. However, the commander-in-chief didn't even listen to the president's order.

"Commander-in-chief, should you consider the content of the telegram?" Qiu Shaowen walked up to him and asked worriedly.

"No need." Zheng Yong waved his hand: "Just send it like this, send it immediately. I'm tired, you guys go out and follow the order just now. I'm going to take a break..."

When they all walked out, Zheng Yong closed the door and returned to the recliner alone and closed his eyes.

A smile emerged from the corner of his mouth...

"Sima Hanzheng, why are you back?" When he returned to his residence, he unexpectedly saw Sima Hanzheng, who was arranged in Chongqing, appear in front of him. Zheng Yong looked down and said with some anger.

"Commander-in-chief, the situation is very urgent. Nurse Huang asked me to come back and report to you in person." Sima Han said hurriedly without caring about too much explanation.

The news of the island army's attack on the Sixth Army had reached Chongqing, and Zheng Yong stopped moving and sat down and did not know how it spread. This quickly aroused criticism from some people.

Some officials and officers who had long been disgusted with Zheng Yong, constantly creating public opinion through various channels, saying that Zheng Yong was timid and timid, and watched friendly forces be attacked and ignored them. Others said that Zheng Yong's power was too great and he had long lost the determination to be enterprising. He should re-dividend the third war zone and send powerful generals...

Some words also reached the Chairman's ears, and the previous telegram might have something to do with this.

Because of Zheng Yong's relationship, Huang Yuxin frequently went out to and feasts held by the upper class, and had a passionate relationship with many officials' wives. Those women all told Huang Yuxin "kindly" that his husband said that the president was very unhappy and had a few times even got angry in the office. Your Zheng Yong must be careful.

What's more, some women actually talked about military issues with Huang Yuxin.

What should we send to attack and what should we send to reinforce... These women didn't even know what the main forces in the third war zone had, but now they are very good at talking about it.

"Nurse Huang said that the public opinion pressure in Chongqing is very high." Sima Hanzheng said after introducing the above situation.

"Especially some upper-level officials seem to have unified their opinions and unanimously agreed that the third war zone should be sent as soon as possible. Not only Nurse Huang, but also Minister Kong has "kind people" to visit him, and then they will definitely talk about the third war zone. He Yingqin, who originally supported you some time ago, began to change his attitude..."

Zheng Yong still didn't seem to care much, and responded lightly and asked, "Is that the people's side?"

"The public's reaction is still relatively calm, and we have also done a lot of work in secret." Sima Han was blurted out.

"From the current situation, the people still believe in the Third War Zone. Some people are saying that this is your plan there, and some things are strange and strange..."

Zheng Yong suddenly laughed.

"Sometimes I wonder why so many emperors like to visit in the past. Do you think, wearing casual clothes, others don't know that you are the emperor. Listen to the people's comments on you, that's a different feeling..."

The inexplicable words made Sima Han stunned, but he seemed to vaguely feel that the commander-in-chief had already understood the current situation.

"By the way, have you heard about Luo Yumeng?" Zheng Yong suddenly asked.

Sima Han was silent for a while and nodded: "I heard about it not long ago..."

"What do you think?" Zheng Yong lit a cigarette and asked slowly.

Sima Hanzheng did not hesitate at all this time: "The first class that Director Luo taught us in the cadre training class before was that we were only responsible to the commander-in-chief, and no one else was concerned. If one day the commander-in-chief ordered us to point the gun at him, then our only choice was to shoot without hesitation, and there was no way to go!"

"It's a pity that he has walked out of the way."

Zheng Yong sighed softly: "It's good that you're back. I just need people. You haven't been here for a long time, and there are not many people who know you. It's useful to be used. What I need now is a new face.

Luo Yumeng's foundation is too deep, so he has not been arrested yet. I now order you to join the arrest operation and be sure to arrest Luo Yumeng as soon as possible.

I know you guys admire him very much, but he is now an enemy, an enemy in the Third War Zone. I hope you don’t care about your personal relationship. You must catch him as soon as possible, and don’t let my husband down on my expectations…”

"Please rest assured, Commander-in-Chief, Sima Hanzheng will not care about personal feelings!" Sima Hanzheng stood up and said loudly.

But when he left here, he felt confused. Are he really going to arrest his teacher?

How could such a thing happen suddenly? A person with great power fell down and there was no sign of any previous sign? What did Luo Yumeng do wrong and made the commander-in-chief furious?

What should I do? What should I do after seeing Luo Yumeng?
