Chapter 871 If you dare to set a fire, I will light a lamp (4)
At ten o'clock in the morning, the large transport plane from Nanchang landed steadily at Baoding Qingyuan Airport. The officers and soldiers of the 12th Aviation Group still stationed at the airport had already lined up to greet it.
Lao Shoudao, who was wearing a moon-white robe, was the first to step off the plane. An Yi, Shen Fengdao, Lin Yaodong, Zhang Yang and others looked at each other and smiled, and hurried up to greet him.
After meeting each other, they walked together to the motorcade parked not far away. Lao Shoudao and others saw more than a hundred soldiers lining up next to the motorcade to greet them. They walked politely to the soldiers and waved. Everyone knew that the war on the front line was tense now. Yin Jinan , Hu Jialin, Gu Changfeng, Xia Jian, Xie Chi and other generals were all leading troops at the front. An Yi himself did not want to hold any fancy grand welcome ceremony. The biggest reason why he asked the aviation team brothers to line up was probably because he wanted to Let Yang Bin meet his brothers - most of the officers and soldiers in this group of aviation troops are instructors and students of the Xufu Aviation School where Yang Bin is the acting director.
Lao Dao was not familiar with the foreign instructors such as Owen, Stevens, and Martin, so An Yi led him and Zhou Chongan to meet warmly with these foreign heroes who had made great achievements in the air battle in North China.
After Yang Bin met with the familiar officers and soldiers who respected him extremely, he gratefully walked to An Yi and thanked him. However, An Yi said with a straight face: "The entire An family army in the North China battlefield also They are your subordinates. Are you trying to abandon us by being so outspoken?
This sentence made Yang Bin laugh out loud, and Lao Shoudao and Zhou Chongan were also very happy.
The mighty motorcade stopped one after another in front of the spacious regimental office of the garrison regiment of the Baoding Military Station. An Yi and others entered the room amid the salutes of the officers and soldiers. Lin Yaodong, the captain of the guard, immediately arranged the exterior layout together with the garrison commander. There was a tight security post in Song Nei, and the regimental commander and regimental deputy personally stood guard for the bosses who were holding a secret meeting. They stood at this station until one o'clock at noon.
During this period, the regiment leader asked Lin Yaodong why he did not see Commander Yin, Chief of Staff Zhao and others. Lin Yaodong replied that they were all preparing for war on the front line. Chief of Staff Zhao, Director of the Political Department Zhan Dao and others probably had no chance from ten o'clock last night until now. After squinting for a while, not only did an urgent meeting be held for all reporters in the Pingjin area, but this morning, together with General Huang Jikuan, the head of the Central Staff, General Yang Gengguang, the commander of the army, Deputy Commander Xu Tingyao, who had returned from the Gubeikou front line, and others, they were holding a meeting at the Tangshan headquarters. The Communist Party held a press conference to introduce to reporters every war that has occurred recently, and to reveal the ugly face of the Communists who shouted to catch thieves... There were too many things to do.
The efficiency of the core figures of Anyi Group is astonishing. In more than two hours, they held heated discussions on the affairs of the entire group, reached unified opinions, and formulated a series of countermeasures. These included the full development of Nanchang, southern Sichuan, Xiangxi Industrial and Commercial Zone, intensify efforts to raise funds for the Anti-Japanese War in Jiangnan and Southwest, increase import and export trade and technical cooperation with Germany, which has paid more and more attention to Sino-German economic and trade relations after Mustache came to power, and strengthen relations with various domestic consortiums. Due to Yan Xishan's generous donation of 50,000 tons of flour and sorghum, the food crisis was temporarily alleviated. Therefore, the issue of raising grain and grass, which was originally listed as a priority, was put to the end.
The meeting came to an end for the time being, and everyone who was hungry and growling didn't care and went directly to the large canteen shared by the officers and soldiers of the military station and the medical staff of the field hospital to eat.
The large canteen is located between the field hospital and the group of warehouses. You need to walk through the flat open space to the north of the field hospital to enter the canteen door. After lunch, the wounded soldiers who gathered in twos and threes to bask in the sun were surprised to see An Yi and Yang Bin.
one
Everyone hurriedly stood up and saluted. They sat straight on the stone slab with awkward legs and legs to salute. Those with their arms hanging around their heads stood up straight and meticulous. The patrolling military police were even more incredible. They all had a heroic appearance and stood as straight as a javelin.
.
Along the way, An Yi, Yang Bin and others had to stop to return gifts from time to time. Lao Shoudao, Zhou Chongan and others in casual clothes watched happily from behind. An Yi and Yang Bin had no choice but to discuss briefly, and An Yi presented to them.
The officers and soldiers on the wide field shouted:
"Brothers, thank you for your hard work. We are here to have a meal. We don't want to disturb the brothers' rest. Brothers, feel free to do as you like... What? If you don't move, that's fine... Everyone except those holding crutches, stand at attention - disperse."
The whole audience burst into laughter. A dozen female doctors and female nurses who helped injured officers and soldiers also covered their mouths, they were so happy.
An Yi and others quickly entered the cafeteria. The guards had already placed two tables of simple but very nutritious meals. Everyone sat down separately and continued to discuss while eating.
Lao Tao was addicted to alcohol and had to drink a glass of wine every day with lunch and dinner, so An Yi used to pour wine for Lao Tao, and he and Yang Bin also drank with him.
After finishing the meal, An Yi stopped his chopsticks: "Uncle, I just remembered you saying that the Red Army in Jiangxi may not be able to withstand it for a long time. Although this is the first time I have heard this statement, I think it makes sense. Part 1
Months later, the Soviet Area Central Committee voluntarily gave up because Luo Ming, acting *** of the Fujian Provincial Party Committee,
Western Fujian, retreated to the Hangyongding Soviet Area, gave the punishment of dismissal and investigation, and quickly passed the resolution against Luo Ming's line, supported the offensive line, and completely negated the guerrilla line formulated by the founder of the Red Army to avoid reality and attack fictitiousness. This
The war in Jiangnan suddenly started raging.
"On February 12, several groups of Red Army troops stormed Nanfeng, Jiangxi Province. After being unable to hold off for a long time, they attacked Nancheng Nangu. They suffered a disastrous defeat and retreated to Lichuan. On the 27th, the Jiangxi Red Army attacked Xinyu Nanxiang, but failed again...
...It can be said that the Red Army made a major mistake in its route. It gave up the guerrilla warfare it was good at and instead took the initiative to attack large cities where superior troops were garrisoned, resulting in unnecessary consumption of troops. Although on February 27,
The main force of the Red Army annihilated Luo Zhuoying's troops of the first column of the bandit suppression army in Jiaohu, northeast of Le'an, causing the death of the commander of the 52nd Division Li Ming and more than 6,000 officers and soldiers. The next day, the first column of the bandit suppression army was annihilated in Jiaohu.
Le'an Huoyuan
, the 59th Division brigade commanders Yang Deliang and Fang Jing were killed in battle, and the division commander Chen Shiji was captured on March 1st. However, these large and small battles were completely completed with a war of attrition, and their own casualties were definitely inevitable!
"It can be said that the current Red Army is walking on a dangerous road. If the guidelines are not changed in time and are consumed for a long time, problems will inevitably occur. However, it will take a long time to move from quantitative change to qualitative change..."
Lao Shoudao showed a look of surprise: "No wonder I feel something is wrong. The atmosphere in Nanchang was very tense last month. It was said that the Red Army was marching north to attack Nanchang and occupy all of Jiangxi in one fell swoop. People in old Nanchang were panicked and many shops and factories were closed.
, it was not until the middle of this month that the situation calmed down. I had always thought it was spreading rumors, but I didn’t expect that I really dared to think so..."
An Yi shook his head: "This is the terrible impact of the wrong route... It is precisely because the Red Army's attacks from all sides gave Chairman Chiang a huge headache, so he was so anxious to negotiate with the little *** and wanted to concentrate manpower and material resources.
and financial resources to eliminate the Red Army in one fell swoop, and then deal with the Japanese invasion.
"If there is no fighting along the Great Wall, maybe Chairman Chiang will transfer the two divisions of the 24th Army from Jinan to suppress it. This is why I just disagreed with Brother Yang's plan to expand the army in southern Sichuan, and instead suggested quietly going to southern Yunnan
The fundamental reason why the five towns dispatched another infantry division. Brother Yang immediately understood what I meant. If our own military strength
Insufficient, Huang Han is making a lot of noise on the border between Sichuan, Hunan and Guizhou, and no one has any reason to transfer the 24th Army to the south of the Yangtze River. Moreover, even if peace is negotiated with the Japanese, the number of troops transferred to the south will not be too large.
They will not be easily mobilized if there are too many, Beards... Based on the above, it is impossible to solve the civil war problem in Jiangxi and other places without more than one year."
Lao Shoudao put down his wine glass and asked in a low voice: "I generally understand what you said. What did you mean when you said that after the truce there were not many troops that could be deployed to the south for suppression?"
An Yi saw that Yang Bin and others also stopped eating with concern, so he told everyone his analysis:
"Everyone knows that the Northeastern Army, under the leadership of the Marshal, has been firmly occupying North China. Before this war, the Northeastern Army occupied Rehe, Chahar, Hebei and Pingjin and other places, with more than 20 troops
Tens of thousands of troops pressed the formation, and neither the Northwest Army, the Shanxi-Sui Army, nor Han Fuqu from Shandong dared to
Coveting any territory in North China. But now that the Northeast Army has collapsed, the Marshal has also gone to Europe to take a break from the limelight. The Northeast Army has been torn apart. Only more than 80,000 people led by Wan Fulin, He Zhuguo, Wang Yizhe, and Yu Xuezhong are still loyal to the Marshal.
Handsome, they tried their best to stick together and try to make a comeback. But in fact, it didn’t happen.
The situation in North China is no longer what it used to be. Song Zheyuan quickly grew stronger with Xifengkou and other great victories that shook the country, and his Communist Party status also improved rapidly. Chairman Chiang took the opportunity to push out Song Zheyuan, who had parted ways with Feng Yuxiang.
, a while ago he was even appointed as deputy director of the Peking Military Branch.
As Chairman and Deputy Commander-in-Chief of the North China Theater, Song Zheyuan seized this opportunity very well and vigorously recruited anti-Japanese armed forces from all over North China. He also quietly included the more than 30,000 defeated troops of Tang Yulin and Wang Yizhe. I believe it will not be long before
, it is Song Zheyuan who firmly occupies Pingjin and North China."
This was the first time for everyone to hear such a confidential matter, and they were very surprised. Yang Bin, who was the first to react, nodded frequently: "It seems that it can only be him. The Northeast Army has lost power and can only be in a subordinate position. Even if the generals of the Northeast Army no longer
To be convinced, you must first wash away the infamy. Chairman Chiang’s move is indeed brilliant! But in this way, he won’t worry that Song Zheyuan will take this opportunity to slowly become powerful?”
"This is the reason why we cannot send many troops to the south to suppress the Red Army." An Yi replied, and continued his analysis: "If the armistice agreement between China and Japan is successfully signed, in order to ensure that the central government's direct leadership over North China, the Chairman will
In order to supervise and suppress powerful people from all walks of life, we must have our own army stationed in Beijing and Tianjin.
and North China. Judging from the current situation of the various departments of our Central Army, only Huzi’s *** Division, Ninth Brother’s Forty Division, and Brother Lu’s Seventeenth Division are mostly northerners, especially Huzi’s *** Division.
, Hebei-born officers and soldiers account for almost half, and after comprehensive consideration, we know which divisions the Chairman will keep."
Yang Bin understood immediately, took over An Yi's words, and added excitedly: "We might as well boldly infer that Hu Xi's current status as deputy commander of the 17th Army, and the achievements he has made in commanding the divisions under him in the North China battlefield,
Victory in battle is a matter of time and time.
"The last time there was a meeting in Nanjing, a group of generals got together to drink. Chief Xu Yuexiang told me that his ideal is to establish as soon as possible the military academy that took him several years of hard work, and to form China's first tank, armor and mechanized force. I heard that
He has
With the support of the Chairman, He Jingzhi, Huang Jikuan, Yang Gengguang and other high-ranking military officials, the preparatory group started work half a year ago, and the school site selection and construction have begun. If it were not for this war in North China, I am afraid that the military academies would have even listed their enrollment.
.
"Therefore, there shouldn't be any problem with Huzi's promotion. What's more, the *** Division, the Seventeenth Division, and the Forty Division have not yet been assigned to any army. Once things are done, maybe the committee will regard the Seventeenth Army as a permanent designation, just like ours
The 24th Army, like brother Chen Cheng’s 18th Army, is unbeatable. The 17th Army
As a result, the army has the two main divisions of the Central Army that are brave and equipped with the leading equipment, plus the 40th division of Yang Jiuge who is being reorganized. If not, there is also the third division of the *** of Brother Zhang Chengzhu who is changing gear in Xuzhou. These
The elite troops stationed in the north are a huge threat to anyone."
The old Taoist sighed slightly and asked An Yi in a low voice: "So, as long as the armistice agreement is signed and the war is over, you will not only not expand the army, but will disarm in a big way?"
An Yi nodded with a weird expression: "Who says it's not the case? There's nothing we can do about it. Who made me so poor that I can't even open the pot? During this time, I've done a lot of things like tearing down the east wall to make up for the west wall, begging grandpa to sue grandma,
As long as there is a war, the consumption will be a bottomless pit, and millions and millions will be thrown into it, which makes me feel bad!"
Everyone knew what An Yi meant and couldn't help laughing. No matter how rich An Jiajun was, it was still his. For all kinds of demands and jealousy, the best way to deal with it was to cry for poverty, and disarmament was the most intuitive expression.
.
After Zhou Chongan laughed, he strongly supported An Yi's opinion: "I think Xiao Yi's idea is very good. Now our Anjia army includes engineering corps, security divisions and various medical auxiliary troops, supporting hundreds of thousands of people inside and outside. However,
It is worth considering which troops will be reduced and what impact they will have."
Everyone suddenly frowned, and the palms and backs of their hands were full of flesh. Whether it was five security divisions or a hundred thousand engineering troops, they were all brothers. The current situation was chaotic, and the old nest in southern Sichuan needed to be protected by force. The newly developed southern Yunnan region was still there.
The victims are being relocated continuously, and now more than 8,000 officers and soldiers and 150,000 victims have passed through. If we want to make further progress, we must increase our troops in southern Yunnan and firmly occupy that land.
Lao Shoudao weighed it for a moment and suddenly asked: "Boy, now that you have a big business and a lot of soldiers, won't your principal be unable to sleep without taking pictures of you?"
An Yi sighed helplessly: "Do you think I can sleep peacefully? The principal is strengthening his own armed forces every day. He does not hesitate to ask us to borrow money, and he must work hard to develop an army loyal to him. Xu Yuexiang's military academy is
For example, now that the frontline troops cannot even supply food and ammunition, he is still thinking about developing armor, tanks and mechanized troops. If the Red Army is defeated, the southwest region we control will become a thorn in his side.
"Therefore, disarmament is necessary, and it must be done with great fanfare, so that everyone in the world knows that An Yi and my brothers do not want to fight, but only want to get rich. However, recruitment is also necessary. In any case, our armed forces are absolutely
It cannot be less than 200,000, otherwise, if a crisis occurs suddenly, we will not have tears to cry... Therefore, the focus of solving the problem can only be southern Yunnan, which holds our hope..."
Although An Yi didn't say it clearly, everyone knew what he meant, and they all nodded in agreement.
Zhou Chongan saw that An Yi had a plan in mind to deal with possible crises in the future, and he couldn't help but feel reassured. At this moment, he suddenly remembered the main purpose of his trip, and couldn't help asking with a smile: "You asked us to solve the problem of grain procurement?
But it was not brought up at the morning meeting. Are there any plans?"
"There are no plans now. Looking at the situation, peace talks are certain. In the morning you introduced the poor economic situation in Japan, and the continuous pressure on Japan by European and American countries for their own interests. I guess the Kwantung Army
The situation is so dire that they seem to be unsustainable... Alas, after occupying Chengde and a large amount of land north of the Great Wall, their goal has basically been achieved. Otherwise, they would not have held secret armistice negotiations in Shanghai, let alone
Please invite officials from various embassies and consulates in Peiping to mediate. Since everyone wants peace talks, I have decided not to be taken advantage of. I have not paid for the 50,000 tons of food generously sent by General Yan Baichuan, which is estimated to be enough for 200,000 troops on the front line.
Boil it for a while
After a while, if the central government does not solve the problem of food shortage, I, the former commander-in-chief of the enemy in name only, have no responsibility. Let Chairman Chiang and Commander He Jingzhi have a headache. Anyway, our team will not starve." An Yi relaxed.
to answer.
Everyone smiled knowingly, and Zhou Chongan nodded with relief: "That's fine. We have paid too much for this war. If the war can be stopped, there is no need to bear any more. After Uncle Dao and I returned, we took the money donated by all walks of life in the rear
Anti-Japanese War Fund Inventory
For a moment, according to your wishes, instead of being controlled by the central government and the Communist Party, the Anti-Japanese War Foundation and Charitable Foundation established by us will be responsible for comforting as many disabled soldiers as possible. It is better to do something practical than to exploit the central government at all levels.
, it’s much better to splurge on every level.”
An Yi immediately agreed: "Okay! You and Uncle Dao will be fully responsible for this matter. In addition, some money will be allocated to the military resettlement factory and immigration village built by Brother Yang in the Zhaotong area, so as to make the Great Wall Anti-Japanese War more effective for all our Central Military Forces."
Disabled brothers in the army and their families have protection for the rest of their lives. As for other
I will think of a way to deal with the issue of pensions and disability resettlement in other armies at that time, or simply let the central government and the Communist Party of China bear the responsibility. The disabled officers and soldiers in other armies are all from the north. I guess they want money but are unwilling.
Let them go to southern Sichuan. If they all go, I'm afraid they won't be able to relocate them even if they spend thousands of dollars."
"Do you have any other opinions? If you don't have any opinions, Chong'an and I will do this." The old man glanced around.
Yang Bin and others immediately expressed no objection, and the originally extremely difficult food problem and pension resettlement problem were efficiently resolved in a few words. An Yi was relieved of a major worry that was weighing on his heart, and he felt relaxed for a while.
Feel free to grab the chopsticks, pick up the big bowl and quickly fill your stomach.
When the brothers saw that the problem was basically solved, and An Yi's eating style was so impressive, they all picked up their bowls and started eating happily. After enduring it until now, everyone was really starving.
