Ouyang Yun's original plan was to immediately rush to Wanping with the cadet regiment after accepting the military supplies donated by the 25th Division. However, the arrival of Yu Xuezhong and Chen Shaohua gave up this idea.
The purpose of these two men was similar to that of Chang Zhilin. Yu Xuezhong, as the commander of the 51st Army, had other reasons for coming personally.
It is said that no coincidence can make a book, the seed Feng Yuanxiu planted by Ouyang Yun in Tianjin Sino-Japanese Middle School "germinated" in advance. I have to admit that Feng Yuanxiu was born to be a spy and to deal with dark materials. Because of his uncle's relationship, he knew the people in Tianjin.
He happened to see many traitors and Shi Yousan's subordinates taking to the streets to bribe young hooligans under Sakai Takashi's order. He immediately noticed something unusual and tried to find out the truth. Knowing that the matter was serious and Ouyang Yun could not be found, he thought of the 51st Army.
General Yu Xuezhong, the commander-in-chief and mayor of Tianjin, was very resolute in resisting Japan, so the treasure was placed on him.
Yu Xuezhong learned about the Japanese conspiracy from Feng Yuanxiu, and naturally he did not dare to take it lightly. He was thinking about how to deal with it. It happened that Chen Shaohua came to report that there were too many supplies in the warehouse and he could not take them all away in a hurry.
He suggested that instead of destroying it, it would be better to leave it to the 29th Military Academy Corps, so that they could deal with traitors like Shi Yousan.
Yu Xuezhong began to feel that something was wrong. He believed that the 29th Army's defense line was in Chahar. Since the Xueying Regiment was already affiliated with the 29th Army, if it entered Peiping privately without the order of the Military Commission, once this matter was exposed, it would lead to Song Zheyuan and the 29th Army.
Have a very negative impact.
Chen Shaohua thought for a while, but said that there was no need to worry, because currently very few people knew about the transformation of the training class into a student corps, and these people would not tell it for various purposes. So, the student corps could completely turn into a
Entered Peiping as a local volunteer armed force.
When he said this, Yu Xuezhong thought it was a good idea, but he began to worry about the student corps. He thought that the students were too simple and had no practical experience, and he was afraid that they would not be able to cope with those old fritters like Shi Yousan. Based on the idea of taking the overall situation into account, he
Cruelly, he decided to allocate a company from his own guard regiment to the student regiment.
Therefore, the excess supplies in the 51st Army warehouse were naturally sent as a dowry.
Yu Xuezhong and his party drove two cars and ten large trucks, including five vehicles of fully armed soldiers and five vehicles of military equipment, to the camp of the cadet regiment. The cadets who were on guard in front of the camp were surprised when they saw such a large formation.
Thinking that the Japanese were coming, they hurriedly fired warning shots. At this time, in addition to standing guard, most of the cadets on patrol were resting in the dormitory. Since Ouyang Yun had not returned yet and had no backbone, everyone immediately became confused when they heard the gunfire. Many people
He didn't even have time to put on his shoes, grabbed the gun and ran out. After running all the way out, he found that he didn't have a bullet bag with him, so he hurried back to get the bullets. The patrol team rushed to the door, forgetting all the tactical essentials that Ouyang Yun had just taught them.
net.
There was a lot of chaos for a while, and until the misunderstanding was cleared up, the Xuexing Corps station was still noisy. Yu Xuezhong felt very chilled when he saw it. He thought to himself, how could he fight against the Japanese with such qualities? Is it almost like sending someone to death?! He couldn't help but said to Chen Shaohua worriedly:
"It seems that we can't count on them. Well, the Third Guard Company will stay in the academy and there is no need to return to the army." Originally, he just wanted the Third Guard Company to make a guest appearance and complete the task of blocking the Third Army of Shiyou.
The Corps is in such a state. Considering the overall situation, they want to sacrifice the interests of the 51st Army and prepare to have the Third Guard Company directly assigned to the Corps.
But Chen Shaohua felt something was wrong and said: "Military seat, isn't this bad? After all, the Xue Corps is now affiliated with the 29th Army. In that case, wouldn't it mean that the Third Company of Guards would be given to Song Zheyuan? The brothers of the Third Company would not accept it either.
of."
Yu Xuezhong thought about what was going on and asked: "Then what do you think should be done?"
Chen Shaohua saw many cadets next to him, so he leaned close to him and whispered in his ear: "Military seat, should we ask Li Tieshu to find a way to control the cadets and then bring them into our organization?"
"No, no, what should we do about Peking? Just leave it to the Japanese?"
"Sooner or later it will be lost."
Yu Xuezhong thought for a while, sighed and called Li Tieshu, the commander of the third company, to his side and whispered: "Tieshu, you won't have any objections to me leaving you in the training regiment to defend Peiping, right?"
Li Tieshu held his head high, stood at attention and saluted, and then said loudly: "Reporting to the military seat, my subordinates and brothers will ensure to complete the mission and never lose the face of the military seat and the 51st Army."
"I know you are all good people, but you must be prepared to stay in Peiping for a long time."
"The military seat, didn't you just return to the army after completing the mission? You, you don't want us anymore?"
"Don't sound so dejected. What do you want? Let me tell you...understand?"
"I understand, but what if Ouyang Yun doesn't listen to me?"
"If you really have no choice, come back. The door of the 51st Army is always open to you, including the Corps of Cadets - you can tell Ouyang Yun the truth if you have the chance."
"yes!"
At this time, Ouyang Yun came back with the driver of a truck. He saw the formation in the station and was a little confused about the direction. When he saw Chen Shaohua and the middle-aged man standing with him who had three stars on his collar badge, he immediately
Guessing the identity of the other party, he couldn't help but be very surprised. Yu Xuezhong was a general that Ouyang Yun admired very much. He was an idol. He didn't dare to neglect and stopped the car immediately. He didn't care about Chen Shichang and others who were coming towards him, and walked straight away.
When he arrived in front of Yu Xuezhong, he performed a military salute neatly and said loudly: "Ouyang Yun, Major and Acting Commander of the 29th Military Academy Regiment, salute General Yu!"
With just this military salute, Yu Xuezhong couldn't help but feel very fond of this young man who had been famous for a long time. He suppressed his bad mood, put on a smile and asked: "Are you the 'Anti-Japanese Heroes' Ouyang Yun?" He looked behind him,
Asked: "What about Chu Tiange? Why haven't I seen this guy? Isn't he also studying in the Corps?" From the tone of his voice, he seemed to know him.
Ouyang Yun's admiration for Xuezhong was sincere. From the perspective of anti-Japanese resistance, the general in front of him dared to fight the Japs with real swords and guns. It was precisely because of his control that the Japanese restrained themselves in Tianjin.
Like Sun Monkey, he caused a quarrel. Because of this, in the "Ho-Mei Agreement", he was the highest-ranking national military general who was asked to be relieved of his military duties by the Japanese army. He respectfully replied: "Tiange went to Wanping."
.”
"Oh? Why is he going to Wanping?"
"Monitor the movements of those traitors."
Yu Xuezhong smiled and asked: "So, you already know the news that Shi Yousan and others are going to start an uprising in Wanping?"
"Yes, we are on our way to Wanping."
Yu Xuezhong looked at the soldiers around him and was surprised to find that with Ouyang Yun's return, these little guys who were in a panic just now were standing up straight, looking a bit like soldiers. This made him
He couldn't help but look at the young man in front of him with admiration, and at the same time he was determined to win over him. He smiled and said to Ouyang Yun: "Shi Yousan and others are backed by Japanese people. Shi himself was born in the army. He still has a way of fighting. You can learn from the Corps alone."
I can't handle it." Then he pulled Li Tieshu to the front and introduced: "Li Tieshu, the commander of the third company of the first battalion of the 51st Army Guard Regiment. From today on, he and his brothers will obey your orders."
Li Tiejun stepped forward politely, saluted Ouyang Yun, and said, "I have met Commander Ouyang."
Ouyang Yun looked at the twenty-five or six-year-old young soldier in front of him. He saw that his eyes were bright and his expression was neither humble nor arrogant. He was obviously an old soldier who had experienced many battles. He looked at Yu Xuezhong and then at Chen Shaohua. For a moment,
He couldn't react and was a little at a loss. Yu Xuezhong's hand was completely unreasonable. His first thought was that General Yu was indeed a patriotic general who served the country and the people. This "generous" is really "generous"! Again!
When I thought about it, I felt something was wrong. The Third Guard Company was involved in the cadet corps. Is this cadet corps named the 51st Army or the 29th Army?! He saluted Yu Xuezhong with some embarrassment and said, "General Yu, I'm afraid this is not the case."
Well, Brother Li's third company of guards is the elite of the 51st Army. They must have experienced hundreds of battles and have extraordinary skills. How can Ouyang Hede dare to command them? If possible, I would like to be a soldier under Brother Li."
After hearing what he said, Yu Xuezhong suddenly smiled and looked at the surrounding soldiers with a smile. He saw that many of them had their eyes widened. Apparently they didn't understand why their leader wanted to belittle himself. Yu Xuezhong knew that he was worried.
The old men who could not command the Third Company of the Guards glanced at Li Tieshu. The latter understood and immediately said sternly to Ouyang Yun: "Captain Ouyang, you can rest assured on this. I am one hundred and twenty-three below."
From now on, all of you, since we are all members of the Xue Corps, should obey Commander Ouyang's orders. If you disobey, you will be willing to engage in military law."
After his statement, Ouyang Yun felt that it would be hypocritical to refuse any more, so he solemnly held his hand and said sincerely: "In that case, from now on, we will unite as one to fight against the Japanese and vow to defeat the Japanese."
Drive them out from the land of the three northeastern provinces." Then, he looked at the soldiers of the guard company and said: "The Xue Corps was just established and has little combat effectiveness. If Wanping really fights, we will have to rely on all the big brothers. Ouyang is here first.
Please!" After saying that, he gave a military salute to everyone.
Many people in the guard company were very dissatisfied with this little regiment leader at first, but because Yu Xuezhong was here, they did not dare to say anything in person. They just secretly murmured: What is the commander doing? This little guy looks like a junior brother at first glance.
How can we listen to him? Although he is a "two heroes of the Anti-Japanese War", does a person who has never been on the battlefield know how to command a war? Now I have seen his "performance", his tall and straight military posture, and his military salute.
The respect was even more unambiguous, and their perception of him changed involuntarily. Many people immediately and subconsciously returned the military salute, and some even said: "Please don't worry, sir." "Sir, you are too ignorant"... and so on.
.
Yu Xuezhong was extremely dissatisfied with Ouyang Yun's words. He suppressed his smile and said, "What are you talking about? What kind of guard company, students from the Corps? From now on, they are all your subordinates. They will naturally obey the orders of the superior."
Compliance." He looked at the soldiers of the guard company and asked loudly: "Do you think so?"
Under the gaze of the commander, the soldiers of the guard company involuntarily straightened their chests and answered loudly: "Yes!" Then, as if they had gone through a rehearsal, under the leadership of Li Tieshu, they said in unison: "From now on, only Commander Ouyang will follow his lead!"
The shouts were loud, deafening, and very inspiring. All the students were excited when they heard it. They looked at their regiment leader with a brighter look, feeling proud to have Ouyang Yun as their regiment leader. However, the soldiers sent by Guo Biao
Some of the guards of the 29th Army thought: This training regiment is part of the 29th Army. When the people in the guard company shout slogans with such content, are they implying that they only listen to Ouyang Yun but will not obey the 29th Army! Well,
You have to tell Shangfeng about this.
Ouyang Yun was very moved. It reminded him of the National Day military parade of that era. When more than a thousand soldiers shouted "Hello, Chief" in unison, it seemed like this was the scene in front of him - a little narcissism, he thought: Hey
, we are also the commander now. A different kind of emotion filled him. He put his feet together and said loudly: "Ouyang Yun will live up to the trust of the commander and everyone!" After saying that, he pushed hard towards Yu Xuezhong and all the guards.
