Wanping County, located on the vast plains of North China, has its four gates tightly closed. There is a seemingly endless cloud in the sky, drifting slowly from east to west. The stars in the sky seem to be in a deep sleep, gradually disappearing. The ancient
The scattered dim lights on the city wall swayed in the wind like fireflies, like the weak fishing fires on the endless and silent sea.
In the headquarters of the 219th Regiment of the 37th Division of the 29th Army in the county town, the atmosphere was extremely tense and depressing.
After listening to the staff report, the regiment leader Ji Xingwen felt a little relieved. However, during the day, the Eighth Squadron of the Third Battalion of the First Regiment of the North China Garrison Army, led by Captain Yimu Qingzhen, drove to Huilong Temple, which is close to the Marco Polo Bridge headquarters.
When they went to the Dawayao area to conduct practical exercises, this situation still puzzled Ji Xingwen.
Although the Japanese army has been holding various military exercises in the area this week, there has never been such a weird situation as today. It should have only been a small-scale Japanese army with a squadron of more than a hundred people.
How could a routine exercise be led by the captain himself and command the entire process? Is there any ulterior purpose hidden in this?
Fortunately, in the evening, the Japanese military exercises ended and there seemed to be signs of troop withdrawal. However, at 7:30 in the night, gunfire rang out again. The unique firing sound of the Japanese standard rifle 38-gauge and the loud bursts of crooked machine guns were heard in the silence.
It is very easy to distinguish in the night.
From this seemingly ordinary gunfire, which is not much different from the past week, there seems to be a strong mysterious atmosphere. This subconscious bad feeling can only be vaguely understood by soldiers who have experienced hundreds of battles and are extremely experienced.
feel.
Ji Xingwen stood up, put his hands on his chest, and paced back and forth. I don't know why, but he was always restless in his heart and couldn't calm down at all, as if something bad was about to happen. After repeated consideration, Ji Xingwen
Wen finally made up his mind, took a few steps to the phone, dialed the number at the headquarters, and wanted to report his bad feeling to his division commander Feng Zhian over the phone.
Feng Zhi'an, who was at the headquarters of the 29th Army in Peking, was slightly surprised when he heard Ji Xingwen's report, but after thinking about it, Commander Song Zheyuan and Deputy Army Commander Tong Linge had just held a friendly meeting with the *** consular officials and the head of the Peking Secret Service in the afternoon.
The content of the talks was how to effectively promote the progress of the new railway in North China and the development of mineral resources along the way. There was no sign that the Japanese army dared to risk the disapproval of the world and deliberately provoke a war at this time.
After careful consideration, Feng Zhi'an, who still wanted to attend the military summary meeting, gave Ji Xingwen a smooth answer: Be vigilant and report any abnormalities at any time.
Listening to the busy signal from the phone, Ji Xingwen shook his head. After putting down the phone, he made up his mind after much deliberation. The entire regiment's officers and soldiers, who had already canceled their alert, once again entered a state of readiness for war under Ji Xingwen's order.
, the number of perimeter security sentries has been doubled.
More than two hours passed in the blink of an eye. Although the Japanese military exercises were still in progress intermittently, nothing special happened. However, all the officers and soldiers in the regiment listened uneasily to the intermittent and extremely loud gunfire outside the city.
Everyone feels a kind of depression and panic that they have never experienced before, but if we look into the reason, no one can explain it.
"What time is it?"
Ji Xingwen, who had said the words, did not look up, and the pencil in his hands continued to slide on the map. Between the Luogouqiao front line of the Japanese large -scale real -scale real -scale actual bomb exercise yesterday and the Fengtai Japanese camp, a thick line appeared.
I imagine whether there is any inner connection in this series of exercises.
"Just after ten o'clock."
I looked at the map of the map with Ji Xingwen and looked at the watch with a pair of watches, and looked at the sky outside. Then I whispered and found that the tea cup on the desktop was no longer water.
The serviceman adds to the regiment.
Suddenly, there was a burst of gunfire in the direction of the west of the city. The bullets of the bullet broke the sound of the night sky, and all the officers and soldiers in the regiment jumped in the heart.
Ji Xingwen suddenly raised his head, his face was shocked and angry, and before he could say the last sentence, he heard the "bombardment" two loud noises. A bungalow in 50 meters northwest, bombing in a bomb fired in a barrel, bombarding.
Under the vibration, the shock suddenly collapsed, and a fierce sound was made.
"Not good, *** people have done it! All dispatches, ready to fight back-"
The entire county seat of Wanping has already been a chicken flying dog jumping at this time, and the sorrow and sorrows are one after another, and a chaotic. Ji Xingwen and other officers quickly rushed to the most fierce gates of gunfire under the escort of a squad guard.
The three battalion chiefs who came to report the military conditions Jin Zhenzhong, learned that the Japanese army suddenly broke out, but now she has stopped shooting, but sent a representative to the city to search for the city.
Soldiers, if they are not satisfied, they will attack the city with force.
The Ji Xingwen, who knows the soldiers, wondered slightly, and immediately understood it. *** human similar tricks did not know how many times it was used.
One sound: "Dog Day, I want to come here again in Lao Tzu? There is no door!" Immediately shouted the whole regiment and immediately entered the combat state, the command team arrived in front of the command, and I ran to the regiment again to bring this emergency military situation upwards.
Report.
But it is regrettable that the special line of Wanping County's military telephone line is not known when it has been cut off.
East gate, rushed to Peiping City Headquarters in a hurry.
Ji Xingwen didn't know at all. When a brigade of the Japanese army suddenly fired at Wanping County, which was guarded by herself, the head of the North China River in Peiping called Song Zheyuan, the head of the three brigades of the River River in Tun Tun.
In the anger ***, the *** team attacked his exercise force, and did not wait for the amazing and inexplicable Song Zheyuan to respond, and the river was deducted by the river. Then, in the afternoon, the Japanese army, the Japanese army, who negotiated with the officials of the Jicha Government Committee in the afternoon
Changsongjing's telephone number followed, and Matsui Taijiu Lang loudly notified Song Zheyuan: When the three teams of the Japanese First Wing took the name of the team in the suburbs of Lugouqiao, they found that one soldier was missing.
The exercise force believes that the missing soldiers are likely to have been plundered into the city by the Central *** team, asking for the city to search immediately. If Wan Ping's garrison refuses to trigger a fire, and even leads to the Sino -Japanese war, the responsibility is all in Song Zheyuan and the 29th Army generals soldiers.
On the body.
For a while, Song Zheyuan's face was pale, but the profits and disadvantages of weighing the advantages and disadvantages were still very politely rejected. The reason was that this time was late at night. The Japanese army entered the city.
Tomorrow will be properly resolved by the two parties to be properly negotiated, and a satisfactory answer will be given to the Japanese party at that time.
After listening to the situation of Song Zheyuan's situation, the deputy commander, the commander of the deputy army, did not say anything, and immediately ordered the communication staff to contact Wanping County to see what the situation was. In less than three minutes, the communication staff came to report panicked.
I was cut off ...
All generals realized that the situation was a bit wrong, but Matsui Taijiu Lang's phone called again at this time, but the content was the ultimatum that made Song Zheyuan frightened -the Japanese army would forcibly enter the city with force!
The Chinese force resistance caused a comprehensive war between China and Japan, and the responsibilities were all on Song Zheyuan and the 29th Army.
Looking at the dull Song Zheyuan, and Qi Yiyuan, who came to keep talking about teaching, did not say anything in the heart and disappointed in his heart.
受 through the middle hall and walking into the backyard.
Song Zheyuan, who has accumulated heavy accumulation, is still obsessed with Sino -Japanese cooperation, is still surrounded by a group of traitors and bureaucrats to discuss how to calm the incident through negotiations.
However, at this time, the sound of guns inside and outside Wanping County had actually stopped. The Japanese army faced the tall city walls and the officers and soldiers of the Ji Xingwen.
A few words of threatening language, go long and go.
Soon after, the military telephone line was re -connected by the correspondent sent by the thirty -seven division to check. Ji Xingwen quickly reported the situation to Feng Zhi'an, which was returned to the head of Nanyuan Division to sit in the town.
Feng Zhi'an heard that the Japanese army had retreated and relieved slightly, but still strictly ordered the 219th regiment to prepare at all times. There must be no relaxation.
Feng Wei'an did not know. After receiving the call, Song Zheyuan, if he was released, ignored Feng Wei'an's advice, "war is likely to come", and resolutely made a decision: Go to Tianjin early tomorrow morning to negotiate with the Japanese army in the army in Tun Tun to eliminate the war to eliminate the war to eliminate the war.
Hidden dangers.
Song Zheyuan's wrong judgment of the current situation allowed the Japanese army to seize the time and quickly complete the troops of the heavy ground to attack Wanping and Lugouqiao.
At five in the morning, Lushan.
After receiving An Yi, who received the urgent report of North China, he called Bai Chongxi and other generals, and hurriedly drove to Meilu.
The guards responsible for the protection of the Merko protection of the warning mission saw that An Yi, Bai Chongxi, etc., who drilled out two cars with a black face, suddenly shocked, knowing that the two chiefs of staff and the departments of the staff of the two strategic commanders of the army were shocked.
At this time, Qi Qi came, and it was definitely a big event that was beyond imagination.
After Chiang Kai -shek, who had just slept for less than half an hour, got a notice from the guard, he apologized to Song Meiling, and soon got up and changed to a neat suit. He went downstairs quickly.
