Chapter 27 Imminent

(Absolutely free: Many people have responded, why haven’t we started fighting yet? To be honest, Xidu also hopes to start fighting as soon as possible. There is no need to search for information so frequently, and there is no need to worry about attracting so many people to scold "noobs". However, this book The book is not purely YY, and North China in 1935 was indeed complicated, and there were too many things that happened. If I don’t list the important ones, I’m afraid there will be more people who want to criticize Western poisonous “noobs” again. Here, Western I can only ask for your understanding and support, and promise that the war will come soon, and the chaos in North China is coming to an end, and there will be at most two chapters of this content,,)

Qin Dechun's trip to Mount Lu did not escape the surveillance of Japanese spies. Doihara could not hold back the report immediately. The "Qin-Tumu Agreement" was signed by him and Qin Dechun after bargaining and finally moving the Kwantung Army out. For Qin's He is very well understood and is a typical "pro-Chiang and anti-Japanese" element; the National Government's layout in North China is very targeted. If the student brigade is included in the 51st Army, then regardless of whether North China's autonomy can be achieved, Renqiu will not fall into Japanese hands. ; Behind Qin Dechun was Song Zheyuan, who decided to personally plan a good show to put pressure on him.

So, just as Qin Dechun returned to his home on Fuyou Street from Song Zheyuan, a parade of more than 100 people surrounded the Qin Mansion. Most of them were Japanese ronin who took off their kimonos, and of course there were also many traitors. , they held small flags and shouted in Chinese with a Japanese accent: Welcome to the establishment of the North China State, welcome the establishment of the second Manchukuo, Japan-China support, Japan-China friendship, the people demand the establishment of the North China State, and so on,

In this context, Doihara and Takahashi Tan appeared in a black car specially designed for the Peking secret service. They did not wait for the orderlies to inform them, but they broke into Qin's house directly, and closely behind them were several so-called "representative of public opinion",

Qin Dechun only had time to wash up at this time, and he still had a towel in his hand. When he saw these two uninvited guests, he was stunned for a moment, and then he had to squeeze out a smile to greet them.

Doihara sat down on the chair carelessly, took the tea offered by the Qin family servants, and said straight to the point: "Qin Sang, I came here for the Xianghe incident. You said it was caused by our Japanese soldiers. I am now Tell Qin Sang, I personally came to China specifically to create incidents. As long as North China does not declare autonomy for one day, we will create two, three, or even four incidents... Qin Sang, you should have got the news, right? The officers and soldiers of your 38th Division are confronting the Imperial North China garrison on the outskirts of Tianjin. It seems that your army does not take the "Qintu Agreement" and "Hemei Agreement" seriously. It just so happens that we are also eager to march into North China in an open and honest manner. Well, this is a God-given opportunity."

The 29th Army stationed in Peking and Tianjin was nominally "invited" by the Peking Army Branch. But in fact, the Peiping Army Branch only allowed the 29th Army to station in Peiping and did not mention a word about Tianjin. Why? The situation in Tianjin is worse than in Peiping. It's much more complicated. The "Xinchou Treaty" signed by the former Qing Dynasty is still in effect. Tianjin is full of concessions, including the Japanese Concession, the French Concession, the British Concession, and the International Concession (Public Concession). The treaty stipulates that the Chinese have no right to station troops. , On the other hand, foreign concessions have their own troops stationed in them, such as Japan's North China station. It is not impossible for Chinese troops to enter Tianjin, but only in the capacity of police. No, whether it was during the Yu Xuezhong era or the current Zhang Zizhong, they arranged to enter Tianjin. All the troops in the city wear "police" hats, like the battalion sent by Zhang Zizhong to support Xianghe, which is now affiliated with the Tianjin Municipal Public Security Bureau.

Tianjin is said to be a Chinese place, its subjects are Chinese, and its mayor is Chinese, but whatever it wants to do, it has to obey foreigners.

Doihara's words were obviously gangster logic, but Qin Dechun had no way to refute it, so he had to resort to the last resort, saying that the National Government had sent Commissioner He to deal with the matter, and asked Doihara to find the "big talker".

He Yingqin came to North China for the second time. This was something Doihara didn't expect. He didn't know what the mystery was behind the National Government. At this moment, loud shouts suddenly sounded outside: "Resolutely oppose North China's autonomy." "Japanese get out." Go back to your hometown.” “Give me back my country.” “Down with the traitors.”

Doihara and Qin Dechun were both startled. They looked at each other. The former thought this was Qin's arrangement, but the latter thought it was Doihara's arrangement. He didn't know what kind of medicine he was selling in his gourd.

The two people led the crowd to the door, and then they realized that the people making such loud and neat noises were a group of students. They held banners "Oppose North China Autonomy, Support the Central Government" and shouted slogans while marching forward in front of them. , it turned out that the more than 100 marchers were like a small boat in the sea, they had been completely lost by the strong wind and waves.

Facing this scene, Doihara's face turned livid and his eyes rolled. Although he was unwilling, he had no choice but to accept Qin Dechun's kindness and was pulled into the inner house by him.

The parade was organized by the "Ten School Autonomous Associations", consisting of Tsinghua University, Normal University, Yanjing University, Hebei Provincial Women's Normal College, Hebei Provincial Legislative Business College, Peking Municipal No. 1 Girls' Middle School, Tianjin Central and Western Girls' School, The student self-government associations of ten schools including Beiping Beiman Girls' Middle School, Beijing Huiwen Middle School, and Tianjin Huiwen Middle School formed a petition group and put forward a total of six demands: first, to oppose the so-called autonomy movement; second, to announce the Sino-Japanese The content of the negotiations; 3. Arbitrary arrests are prohibited; 4. Protect territorial sovereignty; 5. Stop all civil wars; 6. Demand freedom of speech, assembly and the press,

This was the "129 Student Movement" that was famous in the time and space where Ouyang Yun lived and had great historical influence and significance. It should have erupted after the establishment of the Hebei-Cha Government Affairs Committee. The reason why it is brought forward now may be that It has something to do with the current situation in North China. Of course, some people with "ulterior motives" are also involved, such as the students in the student brigade who graduated from these universities.

The organizational division of labor of the petition group is very strict and scientific. It is divided into four groups: supervision, rescue, transportation, and publicity. Each group has a leader and a deputy leader. It is stipulated that if the military police encounter obstruction, the leader will come forward to persuade. If there is an assault, the leader will come forward to persuade. , then the team leader should accept it calmly and avoid casualties. The team leader falls down, the deputy team leader comes out, and the team formation does not break up. Students from the boys' school write slogans and print leaflets in Chinese and English. Students from the girls' school practice bandage tying and first aid methods to stop bleeding. ,

The previous work of the petition group was carried out very covertly. Of course, this may be related to the fact that the Japanese secret service, the National Government authorities and the decision-makers of the 29th Army were busy implementing and dealing with the "North China Autonomy Movement".

He Yingqin led Xiong Shihui, and He Jingwu arrived in Peiping with Qin Dechun. Because this trip had a secret mission, they did not make a high-profile appearance. After arriving in Peiping, He Yingqin and his party met Gu Lianyun immediately and confirmed the existence of Renqiu Oil Field from her mouth , he immediately summoned Song Zheyuan to see him.

Song Zheyuan did not expect that he would come so quickly. His first reaction was "What is he doing here again?" and then he said to Qin Dechun and Xiao Zhenying: I didn't want to see him, so I hid in Xishan and went to the Summer Palace to recuperate. Before leaving, he asked Xiao Zhenying handed over a letter to He Yingqin, asking him to have full authority to handle matters in North China.

He Yingqin was eager to see Song Zheyuan. Firstly, he wanted to get oil and hoped that Song would understand the central government's painstaking efforts to hand over the student brigade to the 51st Army. On the other hand, it was for the great cause of legal currency reform.

Song avoided seeing him, so he had no choice but to work with Qin Dechun and Xiao Zhenying. On the one hand, he affirmed that Song worked hard at his job, would not yield to others, absolutely obeyed the central government, and had no secret agreements with the outside world; on the other hand, he shared the central government's difficulties and They explained their good intentions one by one, hoping that they could persuade Song to obey the overall situation and be consistent with the outside world.

After He Yingqin met with Qin and Xiao in Jurentang, he appointed Qin as the new mayor of Peiping (this may be Chiang Kai-shek's usual tactic to win over). He immediately led Gu Lianyun to the Renqiu Xuebing Brigade camp and faced Li Tieshu in person. Li Tieshu responded with emotion and reason, and hinted that the central government had secretly dealt with Ouyang Yun, hoping that he would understand the situation and not stand on the wrong team. Li Tieshu's worst fears became reality, and the anger in his heart was unspeakable. On the surface, he was submissive. , secretly asked Chen Shichang and others to contact the "Ten Schools Autonomous Association" to expose the fact that He once again served as the chief executive of North China and was responsible for negotiating with the Japanese again. The reason why the "Ten Schools Autonomous Association" organized a petition group can be said Most of the reasons were caused by the "Ho-Mei Agreement". He Yingqin's move undoubtedly added fuel to the fire, so the petition group's demonstrations broke out in advance.

The petition group split into two groups, heading straight to He Yingqin's residence, Jurentang, and to the Japanese Embassy. On the way, they passed through Fuyou Street and met a petition team organized by the Japanese. The above scene occurred.

The petition group started suddenly, and the Peiping military police and the 29th Army garrison were caught off guard. The two sides encountered each other frequently. As a result, when the leader of the parade did not fight back or give way, the military police and everyone were moved. The parade was moved at several leaders. Even though the team members were injured, they successfully passed multiple checkpoints. The team grew stronger and stronger, and marched toward the two target locations in a mighty manner.

Just as large-scale demonstrations were taking place in Peiping, the confrontation between Zhang Zizhong's guard camp and the Japanese garrison in North China in the northern suburbs of Tianjin had entered its second day. Among the 29th Army, if we only talk about the determination to resist Japan, the soldiers of the 38th Division are undoubtedly the most Determined, this can be clearly seen from the resolute expressions of the soldiers. The equipment of the 29th Army was originally the worst among the armies in North China. However, after the secret meeting between Song and Xiong, they received central funding and now have The shotguns were replaced with cannons, and the soldiers were generally equipped with medium-sized and medium-sized guns, while the squad and platoon officers were equipped with shell guns. As Zhang Zizhong's direct descendants, the guard battalion had much better equipment. On this basis, each squad had two Czech-made light machine guns, and each platoon had two Czech-made light machine guns. Equipped with Maxim heavy machine guns, the squad and platoon leaders were equipped with German submachine guns and shell guns. The morale and equipment of the guard battalion made the North China garrison feel like they were facing a formidable enemy. They not only dispatched an elite infantry regiment, but also an artillery regiment. Also pulled out,

The two sides were armed with live ammunition, gun against gun, and artillery against artillery. The trenches that had just been dug by the two sides were only twenty or thirty meters apart at the nearest point. The other party could hear the conversation inside if the voice was slightly louder.

Such battles between China and Japan attracted a lot of attention. Britain and France, for example, sent military observers to watch from a distance. At the same time, they gathered their teams for fear that the city gate would catch fire and affect the fish pond.

A question lingers in people's minds: Will China and Japan really fight again because of this?
