The Ministry of Military Affairs and Political Affairs has never made any clear statement regarding the disposition of the Northeastern Army.
I just want you to transfer to the east.
However, there is no detailed explanation of what to do after the eastward transfer.
According to the worst-case scenario, it is very likely that they will be disbanded on the spot. If they resist, they will be eliminated on the spot.
The new garrison was surrounded by Huangpu-style national troops.
Or other local factions that have no dealings with the Northeastern Army.
For example, Han Fuju.
The danger can be imagined.
At this moment, Zhang Yong's arrival is definitely a life-saving straw.
Who is Zhang Yong?
He is the most trusted person by the committee.
He once openly criticized the Ministry of Military Affairs.
As long as Zhang Yong is willing to take care of them, they can sit back and relax.
No matter what the Military and Administrative Department says, Zhang Yong can fight back. The 107th Division is already on his lap, and he must hurry up.
Zhang Yong approached the 107th Division headquarters and found two yellow dots.
Huh?
Yellow dot?
two?
Pay attention silently.
He rode back to the division headquarters.
Wu Keren and Lu Xiangbi were already welcoming them.
Behind Wu Keren stood an ordinary-looking staff officer. The map marked it as a yellow dot.
"Commissioner Zhang."
"Commander Wu!"
"please."
"please."
A group of people entered the conference room of the division headquarters.
At this time, another yellow dot also appeared. It also seemed to be a staff officer.
It seems that Commander Wu’s identity is not simple!
There are two Red Party members around me!
Good thing.
It's good to have members of the red party, so we can communicate well in the future.
He was thinking about how to connect with him over there! Unexpectedly, it had already been arranged.
Since there are members of the Red Party, I can entrust them with the ideological work in the future. I only need to be responsible for providing intelligence, money, and weapons and ammunition!
Sit down separately.
Wu Keren waved his hand and motioned for others to go out.
Zhang Yong stretched out his hand to stop him.
"Need not."
"this……"
"Commander Wu, you have to believe in my expertise. There are no spies by my side."
"yes."
"Commander Wu, I am only here to supervise military affairs. I am not a formal military commander. After the troops arrive at the front line, you are still responsible for the military command."
"front……"
"Suzhou."
"That……"
"I can't reveal too much for the time being. However, I can tell you that the 107th Division is going to Suzhou."
"What about the 108th Division?"
"108th Division...Master Liang didn't come?"
"Mr. Liang went out and hasn't come back yet."
"That……"
Zhang Yong waved.
Call a Red Party staff officer over.
"May I have your name?"
"Reporting to the Specialist. Lu Jingxi, a humble person."
"What about him?"
"Chen Xiguang."
"Call the 108th Division and ask if Commander Liang is back."
"yes."
Lu Jingxi went out immediately.
Chen Xiguang was left waiting.
Wu Keren vaguely realized something, and his face looked a little gloomy.
"Chen Xiguang."
"arrive!"
"Do you have any acquaintances in the 108th Division?"
"there's a few……"
"Call them. Ask how many people from the 108th Division's security company are out."
"yes."
Chen Xiguang went there in confusion.
Wu Keren realized something was wrong but hesitated to speak.
Zhang Yong shook his head and said bluntly: "Master Liang may be gone."
"Gone? What do you mean?" Wu Keren frowned.
"I just left the army. I may never come back. I disappeared."
"He, he, how..."
"You'll know just by looking at this list."
"ah……"
Wu Keren was stunned.
Zhang Yong handed the list to the other party.
Wu Keren's face became even more ugly and angry at the same time.
It contains the amount and specific date of the money received. There is no doubt that this was secretly bribed by the spy.
Huo Ran stood up and punched the table hard.
"This bastard..."
"He may have been careless for a moment and went astray. It's a pity."
"he……"
Wu Keren didn't know what to say.
This man surnamed Liang definitely fled out of fear of crime. He ran away directly.
At present, the 108th Division is completely leaderless. I don't know if anything will happen. I am suddenly worried.
There were footsteps outside, it was Lu Jingxi who was back.
"Report. Commander Liang of the 108th Division has not returned yet. According to the guard's report, he has been away for five hours."
"knew."
Zhang Yong nodded.
Calm.
Not nervous at all.
In fact, it is better to run away to free up space.
Otherwise, we will have to deal with it internally, which will be another harm to the Northeastern Army.
The morale of the Northeastern Army is already very low. If it suffers a few more injuries like this, it will really fall apart.
Tang Jianzhou and Yao Yunqi were on the verge of collapse.
Fortunately, I was forced back by myself.
"Report!"
Chen Xiguang also came back. He hesitated to speak.
Zhang Yong nodded and motioned for him to speak directly.
"Report, one-third of the 108th Division Guard Company went out and never came back. Some officers also left..."
"asshole!"
Wu Keren suddenly couldn't sit still.
So many people from the security company were taken away? What is the man named Liang going to do?
If you want to leave, go by yourself. It's a taboo to bring troops along.
"Commissioner..."
"Not in a hurry."
"But……"
"Not in a hurry."
Zhang Yong responded slowly.
It's going to rain, and my mother is going to get married. Just let it happen.
In fact, it is also a screening process. People who share the same bed with different dreams are best to get out.
He wants to lead three divisions to the Suzhou front line. Instead of having some people run away when they get there, it is better to make a two-way choice now.
Now that people have escaped, we can easily recover. But it will be very troublesome when we get to the front line.
"Commander Wu, come and have tea."
"Commissioner..."
"Commander Wu, I'm not delaying the important matter. In fact, I don't want such a person at all. We are going to fight on the front line and fight against the Japanese invaders. I would rather have all of these half-hearted people
Run away."
"But if the situation worsens..."
"Is there no one in the 108th Division who can stabilize the basic market?"
"Yes, there is..."
"You see, you have a candidate in mind. You know he can control the situation. It won't be too bad. In that case, the worse I can do, the more I will order him to take over as the commander of the 108th Division."
"He was also a teacher. Alas..."
"That's better."
Zhang Yong responded calmly.
Before his arrival, the Northeast Army had already been drawn down once.
Originally, four and five divisions were merged. An army was only given the establishment of two divisions, but not one more.
There was no choice but to merge the two divisions into one division. Some of the original division commanders could only serve as deputy division commanders after the merger. Or they took on some empty positions. Some people just left without their titles. That was because they were discouraged.
It's so cold that I don't want to eat this bowl of rice anymore.
At this moment, the situation in Xi'an City is still a bit chaotic.
The highest command organization here is the Northwest Anti-Japanese Allied Forces Headquarters. It includes the Northeast Army, the 17th Route Army, the Red Army, etc.
When there are more people, efficiency naturally decreases. Many things cannot be coordinated.
The result is that it exists in name only.
Now, the representatives of the Red Party have left. The Seventeenth Route Army is also in chaos.
"Drink tea."
Zhang Yong is deliberately stalling for time.
Wait until everyone in the 108th Division who wants to run away has escaped.
Let’s also see if the new teacher who can stabilize the fundamentals has exaggerated.
Frankly speaking, Zhang Yong was not very satisfied with Tang Jianzhou and Lu Xiangbi. He was very worried that there would be problems with their military command capabilities.
It is also unknown what the military command ability of Commander Wu is.
Alas, it is difficult to know people!
Really. There is no property panel.
It would be nice if there was a property panel so I could see it directly.
For example, if someone has an intelligence of 90 and a command of 95, he is definitely a first-class military expert!
Unfortunately not. I can only think about it.
There is only one Zhuge Liang, but there are many Cobblers.
The talents are all on the side of the Red Party!
well……
Focus on drinking tea.
It took a full two hours.
Only then did Zhang Yong stand up and prepare to set off.
Wu Keren was already extremely anxious and hurriedly walked out.
"Commander Wu."
"arrive."
"Do you have a cavalry company in the 67th Army?"
"have."
"Order them to assemble. Come here first."
"yes."
Wu Keren had no choice but to agree.
I understand that Zhang Yong is stalling for time again. This little guy is really...
Was it intentional to break up the 108th Division?
I had to wait patiently.
"Ta-ta-ta..."
"Ta-ta-ta..."
Finally, the cavalry company arrived.
He Yingping and the others have already left. They are from the Second Cavalry Army.
For the time being, Zhang Yong does not have so many resources to raise cavalry. In the Jiangnan water network area, the cavalry is not very useful.
Huh?
Yellow dot?
Zhang Yong was very surprised.
There are multiple yellow dots in the cavalry company of the 67th Army.
incredible.
Are there people in the cavalry company?
Pay attention silently.
When the cavalry company arrived, they discovered that one of the yellow dots was the company commander himself.
The other yellow dots seem to be the backbone of the battle.
The cavalry company also has a relatively large number of people. It is initially estimated that there are more than 150 people.
It's just that the equipment is a bit poor.
No horse four-ring rifle.
The equipment is an ordinary 79 rifle. There are not many mechanisms.
The bullet belts slung across the bodies of the cavalry soldiers were also shriveled. Perhaps each cavalryman did not have ten rounds of ammunition.
So shabby!
The cavalry company quickly stopped and then dismounted.
The company commander came to Wu Keren and Zhang Yong.
stand at attention.
salute.
"Military seat."
"This is the Commissioner."
"Your Majesty Commissioner."
"Um."
Zhang Yong nodded and raised his hand in return.
For a moment just now, I thought it was Sun Desheng coming.
Although this cavalry company commander is young, his face does look a bit like Sun Desheng. But Zhang Yong hopes not.
Sun Desheng was too tragic. He didn't want the other party to be so tragic.
"May I have your name?"
"Report to Mr. Commissioner, Sun Dexi, a humble official."
"Sun Dexi?"
"Yes."
"Oh, Sun Dexi, peace and joy..."
Zhang Yong was thoughtful.
I hope it won’t be as tragic as Sun Desheng...
Then cheer up!
This is certain. The other party is his subordinate!
Since he is his subordinate, there is no time to run out of ammunition and food! Unless he cannot get it himself.
"Company Commander Sun!"
"arrive!"
"follow me!"
"yes!"
Sun Dexi followed behind Zhang Yong.
Zhang Yong took him behind the division headquarters and turned around a brick wall.
Behind the brick wall, there are multiple ammunition boxes.
"These, your cavalry company will all be moved out. Priority will be given to replenishing your cavalry company. Each person should carry at least fifty rounds of ammunition."
"yes!"
Sun Dexi was immediately overjoyed.
So much ammunition! There are hundreds of boxes!
There are several types of bullets. There are both Mauser rifle bullets and shell gun bullets.
There are hundreds of thousands of rounds of ammunition!
The Commissioner is so generous.
To allocate ammunition to the troops at this time is a great deal of trust.
You must know that others will only try their best to limit the ammunition of various units of the Northeast Army, for fear that they will rise up and cause trouble.
[Favorability 75]
Zhang Yong nodded with satisfaction and remained calm.
Return to Wu Keren.
"Let's go!"
"good!"
Wu Keren breathed a sigh of relief.
It's finally time to leave. I hope the 108th Division is still there.
"Ta-ta-ta..."
"Ta-ta-ta..."
The sound of horse hooves is rapid.
Finally we arrived at the 108th Division station.
First stop in the distance. Then raise the telescope and look at it.
No one dares to break in until it is safe.
In the event of a mutiny...
Anything is possible.
"Here comes someone."
"arrive."
"Pass my order and ask Jin Jiuchuan to come out to see me."
"yes."
The correspondent rode away.
Jin Jiuchuan is the division commander who was promoted from a distance.
Zhang Yong was holding a telescope from behind and found nothing unusual.
His current map monitoring radius is as large as 1,000 meters, which can be said to be quite vast.
Soon after, the cavalry correspondent returned.
Followed by an officer. He looked plain, but his eyes were sunken.
I feel somewhat similar to Lu Xiangbi. They are both old soldiers who follow the rules and don't know how to play with power.
In the past few months, they have been the ones suffering the most.
Those who are smart have already taken refuge with Jiang. They are in contact with Hu Zongnan or Tang Enbo.
Several divisions are now under Hu Zongnan or Tang Enbo.
He became a direct descendant of Chiang Kai-shek.
There are still some people who have taken off their armor and returned to the fields, not wanting to wade through this muddy water.
They are the only ones who are reluctant to leave the army. They want to cling to others but cannot accept it psychologically.
The final result is extreme suffering. Days feel like years and I feel haggard.
"Military seat."
"Jin Jiuchuan, according to the order of the Inspector General of the Military and Political Commission, you take over as the commander of the 108th Division. Effective immediately."
"yes."
Jin Jiuchuan's face was expressionless. He was neither happy nor sad.
There is nothing to cater to Zhang Yong, the Commissioner. Just be transparent.
Obviously, this is another old soldier who has been heartbroken.
I feel like it doesn't matter anything.
Zhang Yongce will be here soon. It is a business-related inquiry.
"How is the situation with the troops?"
"It's quiet now."
"How many people are left?"
"Seven thousand five hundred."
"Not much running?"
"Many officers left, but not many soldiers left."
"That's good."
Zhang Yong likes this result best.
Officers, if you are not satisfied, get out of here! I don’t want you!
Occupy the latrine and don’t poop!
The position is vacated just in time to promote new officers.
It is difficult to make up for the shortage of soldiers, but officers can be directly promoted.
Don't tell me that the officers promoted from the soldiers are not of high quality. They must be military academy students. That is nonsense. When it comes to fighting, the officers promoted from the front line are just as good.
To put it bluntly, those who are not excellent and incompetent are eliminated from the battlefield.
The battlefield is the only criterion for testing one's competence.
Nothing else.
"Mr. Jin, is the 108th Division's salary arrears serious?"
"I've been owed wages for two months."
"I will arrange funds immediately. The payment arrears will be cleared today."
"today?"
"Yes. Today."
"yes."
"Let me tell you clearly. I am here today just to distribute money, weapons and ammunition!"
"yes."
Jin Jiuchuan was a little unbelievable.
While answering mechanically, there was also some surprise.
I hope this commissioner isn’t a loudmouth…
"Let's talk after we go in."
"yes."
The group continued to move forward.
Before reaching the gate of the military camp, someone came to report in a hurry.
"Commissioner..."
"explain."
"There is a caravan that was arranged by you..."
"Let them come over."
"yes."
Zhang Yongle's truce horse.
Caravan? Oh, it’s the system delivery.
Not long after, a caravan arrived, with thirty carts.
There were boxes full of ammunition tied to the top of the cart. But I didn't see any firearms. Just ammunition. In addition to bullets, there were also some cannonballs.
"Mr. Jin."
"arrive."
"This is additional ammunition for your 108th Division."
"yes."
Jin Jiuchuan was overjoyed.
Finally, I am sure that this Commissioner is not a charlatan.
When we say replenishing ammunition, we really mean replenishing ammunition. The quantity is quite astonishing. There are thirty carts!
There are almost thirty ammunition boxes on each cart!
In other words, there are almost 900 boxes of ammunition. This supplement can be said to be very powerful.
Zhang Yong waved his hand.
Those tool men quickly disappeared.
"give it to you."
"yes."
Jin Jiuchuan answered hurriedly.
Then order your subordinates to handle it.
The first thing to do, of course, is to take them all to the military camp immediately.
Such a large amount of ammunition can be said to be a timely rain. After the troops set off, even if they encounter emergencies, they can still cope with them.
"please."
"please."
A group of people entered the 108th Division headquarters.
It turned out that the division commander had left on his own initiative, but the operations of the division headquarters were not affected.
Enter the conference room and sit down separately.
Jin Jiuchuan immediately asked: "Commissioner, where are we going?"
"Suzhou." Zhang Yong answered clearly.
"Are you going to fight the Japanese?"
"Yes."
"That's great. Brothers can't wait for a long time."
"real?"
"I swear to God! We've been waiting for this day for five years!"
"Our battle with the Japanese may last more than five years. You must be mentally prepared. The battle in the future may be very difficult."
"We are not afraid."
"That's good."
Zhang Yong didn't say much.
Now is not the time to express your determination. Everything depends on actions.
When the Battle of Songhu begins and the casualties are extremely heavy, those who can still hold on are the real warriors.
Lighting one by one...
A division can last for a day at most before losing all its casualties...
Alas, the future...
How many heroes...
Shake your head and take your thoughts back.
Just as he was about to speak, the map suddenly prompted a yellow dot to appear nearby.
At first, Zhang Yong didn't pay attention. However, when the other party appeared in his field of vision, his eyes suddenly flashed.
