"It's so outrageous, so outrageous. Is Macheng a bandit den? A ** company and two ** majors were actually disarmed by a landlord. You are all just freeloaders." Sun Shoucheng waved his hand. All the items on the table fell to the ground. In his rage, Sun Shoucheng did not notice that someone was eavesdropping outside his door. Sun Shoucheng, who hated iron but not steel, even said the name of Tangcheng.
In July 1937, after the Anti-Japanese War broke out in an all-round way, when the Kuomintang troops were reorganizing, the Ministry of Military Affairs expanded the 87th Division to form the 71st Army, which was under the jurisdiction of the 87th Division. Wang Jingjiu served as the commander and concurrently served as the commander of the 87th Division. The composition of the 71st Army Later, he participated in the Battle of Songhu and the Battle of Nanjing. In early May 1938, when the 71st Army was affiliated to the 1st War Zone, Wang Jingjiu was dismissed, and Song Xilian, the former commander of the 36th Division, took over as commander. At the same time, the 71st Army was expanded. The 61st Division of the 8th Group Army, the 36th Division of the 71st Army, and the 88th Division of the 72nd Army were transferred to this army. At this time, the army was under the jurisdiction of: 36th Division, with Chen Ruike as the division commander; 61st Division, with Zhong Song as the commander Division Commander; 87th Division, Shen Fazao serves as Division Commander; 88th Division, Zhong Bin serves as Division Commander.
Although Song Xilian took over as commander of the army, the 36th Division was ordered to block Yijiang Gate during the Battle of Nanjing, which forced a large number of Japanese soldiers to lose the opportunity to cross the river. The 87th Division and the 88th Division were full of resentment towards the 36th Division. The severely injured 87th Division and 88th Division can no longer compare with their peak years, but a dead camel is bigger than a horse. Especially after the Ministry of Military Affairs has replenished the resources of the two armies, the combat effectiveness of the 87th Division and the 88th Division is recovering. , but those in the original 36th Division did not want to see this scene. Sun Shoucheng, who was responsible for the logistics and transportation of the 71st Army, and Zhong Bin, the current commander of the 88th Division, were both veterans of the 36th Division.
Tang Cheng is brave and good at fighting, but he is only a 19-year-old boy. Without Liu Yangyang's help, Tang Cheng is a complete layman in dealing with the army. Niu Laogui and Ma Tou are not direct members of the army. After they came out, they naturally would not know the news that the 88th Division was incorporated into the 71st Army. Their understanding of the 71st Army was still at that time last year. Not to mention Huang Hanju, his understanding of the army was not as good as that of Tangcheng or It was Liu Shitou. All of these factors combined led to the fact that Tangcheng did not know that the 88th Division was now affiliated with the 71st Army.
"Lao He, is the division commander here?" Tian Guangquan, who was feeling windy at his feet, rushed to the station of the 88th Division, and hurriedly went to the command post of Zhong Bin, the new commander of the 88th Division. He Yuanxiang, who was working on the map in the command post, looked up at Tian Guangquan He glanced at the back room of the command post and pouted angrily, indicating that Zhong Bin was resting in the back room of the command post. Zhong Bin had a quirk. He liked to sleep in his command post, and he didn't like to be surrounded by others when he was resting. No bother, unless he wakes up on his own.
Tian Guangquan made an important gesture to He Yuanxiang. He Yuanxiang, who frowned, reluctantly put down the pencil in his hand and walked towards the inner room where Zhong Bin slept. "Master, Tian Guangquan is back. He said I have something very important to report to you." He Yuanxiang very carefully woke up Zhong Bin from his sleep. Before Zhong Bin could glare at him, He Yuanxiang had already rubbed oil on his soles and left the headquarters.
"Master, I went to the military headquarters today to ask for supplies, but I heard some news outside Sun Shoucheng's door. I thought I should come back and let you know." Zhong Bin stopped rubbing his cheek with his hand.
Although Shoucheng and he were both old members of the 36th Division, Sun Shoucheng had a narrow-minded nature and was a guy who often repaid kindness with evil, so the relationship between Zhong Bin and Sun Shoucheng was not very good, but this matter only happened to a few people around him.
Talent knows.
After getting Zhong Bin's signal, Tian Guangquan looked around and then said, "I heard that the troublemaker from the Sun family suffered a big loss in Macheng, so I wanted to go and see what kind of face Sun Shoucheng would be, but I didn't expect that.
When I went there, Sun Shoucheng was cursing people in his office. I didn't want to hear it at first, but I heard someone from our 88th Division inside, so I listened patiently for a while, and then I heard someone talking to us.
Things related to the 88th Division.”
Tian Guangquan is a well-known guy in the 88th Division who likes long speeches. A very ordinary thing that passed through his mouth can become as long as a storytelling book, so Zhong Bin has no interest in listening to his long speeches.
He signaled Tian Guangquan to keep the story short. "The person who caused the little bastard of the Sun family to suffer a big loss in Macheng was a landlord named Huang Hanju. This man was originally the leader of the Macheng garrison. The little bastard of the Sun family fell in love with the leader.
He was in the position, so he set up a trap for Huang Hanju. Unexpectedly, he also had a backend in Wuhan. The Sun family was riding a tiger and was unable to get off, so they put a person close to Huang Hanju in prison. "
"Don't worry, don't worry, I'm going to get to the point soon." Seeing that Zhong Bin was about to get up and leave, Tian Guangquan had to tell the rest of the story concisely, "The person who was imprisoned by the Sun family was a man named Tang
An officer in the city, I heard Sun Shoucheng say that this man named Tangcheng is from our 88th Division. He should have gone to Mengcheng after Nanjing was dispersed, and arrived in Macheng after Mengcheng fell. This man has a very good relationship with Huang Hanju
, and also helped train the Macheng garrison."
"Since the Sun family knows that this Tangcheng is from our 88th Division, why do they still put him in jail? Just for that country rich man?" Zhong Bin was a little confused by Tian Guangquan's narration. 88th Division
After the two battles in Shanghai and Nanjing, many soldiers were forced to lose contact with the army, and there were many stragglers living in various places. It is not surprising that this Tangcheng Society would appear in Mengcheng and Macheng. Just inform Macheng and let them go.
, why did Tian Guangquan make this matter so mysterious?
"Master, this is just your idea. Do you know what crime the Sun family accused Tang Cheng of? Fake an officer. They said that Tang Cheng's officer identity was fake." Seeing that Zhong Bin hadn't woken up yet, Tian Guang
He was all a little anxious. Although he was hiding outside Sun Shoucheng's door and could not hear clearly what was said inside, but according to the general faces of the people in the Sun family, Tian Guangquan knew that this person named Tang Cheng would probably be in trouble, especially Sun.
That little bastard suffered a lot in Macheng, and Sun Shoucheng would not give up. I don't know why, but Tian Guangquan just wanted to help this guy named Tang Cheng.
Looking at the hopeful look in Tian Guangquan's eyes, Zhong Bin had already guessed that Tian Guangquan wanted to go to Macheng, but that was fine. If the other party was really from the 88th Division, those who had died in the battle would not be underground.
He scolded himself for being cold-blooded. "Then you should go to Macheng. If this Tangcheng is really from our 88th Division, just bring him back regardless of what the Sun family said." Tian Guangquan jumped at Zhong Bin's decision.
He was tall, and he didn't bother to say goodbye to his friend He Yuanxiang, so he rushed out of the command post to summon his brothers and set off for Macheng.
Of course, Zhong Bin not only agreed to Tian Guangquan going to Macheng because Tangcheng might be the old headquarters of the 88th Division, he decided to do so in order to regain the hearts and minds of the 88th Division as soon as possible. After taking over the position of commander of the 88th Division in May, the 88th Division
Those veterans were not very convinced of Zhong Bin. The incident at Yijiangmen caused a rift between the 36th Division and other units of the 71st Army. In particular, the 87th Division and the 88th Division looked coldly on the people of the 36th Division. Zhong Bin
The 36th Division has been branded on his body. If he wants the bosses of the 88th Division to convince him, Zhong Bin must come up with some skills and means. Strictness alone is obviously not enough.
The war is about to begin, and Zhong Bin needs the 88th Division to use its strongest combat effectiveness to fight the Japanese army. Regardless of whether Tang Cheng in Macheng Prison is an old unit of the 88th Division, as long as this matter is publicized by Tian Guangquan, a big mouth, it will only affect himself.
It has a hundred benefits and no harm, so Zhong Bin's decision just now was just a smooth sailing. Tian Guangquan, who had already rushed to Macheng, didn't know that Zhong Bin had little idea in his mind that there were not many old troops in the 88th Division. When the 88th Division was established,
Tian Guangquan of the Second Military Police Regiment is considered an old man of the 88th Division. Whether it is out of disgust for the Sun family or to save Paoze, Tian Guangquan will go all out.
Tang Cheng, who had no idea about this, was receiving treatment from a doctor in Macheng Prison. With Huang Hanju present, the guards in the prison naturally did not dare to say anything, not to mention that those who committed crimes were all driven out of Macheng by the garrison. Now Macheng
It's the defense team that has the final say. "Brother Huang, stop talking, I won't go home with you. Sun Liansheng won't let it go. They will probably come back. If I hide in Huang's house, not only I will be in trouble in the future."
I have become a deserter and will bring big trouble to the Huang family, so now I can only stay in the prison until the matter is cleared up." Faced with Huang Hanju's persuasion, Tang Cheng just shook his head.
Tang Cheng's stubbornness left Huang Hanju at a loss. Even though he moved all his wives out, Tang Cheng still refused to leave the prison. He only said that he would wait for Sun Liansheng to come to Macheng again. "Hanju, I think we should listen to Tang Cheng."
Well, he can't stand the grievance here anyway. It's quieter here than at home, and it will also help Tang Cheng's recovery from his injuries." Seeing that Tang Cheng refused to leave, Mrs. Huang had no choice but to change her words and persuade Huang Hanju. She was afraid that Huang Hanju would commit a crime.
Silly, he chose to stay in the prison with Tang Cheng and refused to go home.
"That is, I eat well and sleep well here, and a doctor comes to look at my injuries. I can still calm down and build a sand table here. This is much more comfortable than when I am outside. Don't try to get me out.
." Tang Cheng's pretentiousness brought tears to Mrs. Huang's eyes. She knew that Tang Cheng was determined not to leave the prison not only because of his injuries, but also because Tang Cheng was determined not to cause trouble for the Huang family.
"Master, another group of people from the Central Army came to the county. They said they were from the 88th Division. They are following the people from the county to Dalao." The Huangs were preparing to say goodbye to Tangcheng and leave.
San and Liu Shitou ran in in a panic. Unlike Huang Hanju and his wife, who had panic on their faces, Tang Cheng, who also stood up, looked relaxed.
