Age of Rebirth

Tang Qiuli stationed troops in Shanhaiguan, and formed a great advantage in the strategic situation. If he advanced, he could point directly to the land of eastern Hebei and the outskirts of Pingjin, and if he retreated, he could return to the northeast. He repeatedly competed with the Japanese army on the line from Jinzhou to Shanhaiguan. Its active force, going north, can deal with the Kwantung Army in places such as Chahar Grassland and Rehe, forming a huge room for maneuver.

In addition, you can wait and see the movement of the Japanese army in North China and the reaction of the powerful factions in North China. chaos.

When Japan is not yet fully prepared for a full-scale war with China, the Kwantung Army's massive entry may stimulate Generalissimo Chiang in Nanjing, arouse a high degree of vigilance against the Japanese government's ambitions, and strengthen the defense forces of North China. The desperate fight with the Red Army may prevent the "July [-]th" Incident from happening.

If the trend of history will really change as he wished, it will definitely be a great blessing for the Chinese nation. It will save the land of China from being plunged into eight years of bitter war, and the people will not be devastated. He is somewhat looking forward to the main force of the Kwantung Army. Shanhaiguan. [

During the few days that the troops stayed, Nanjiro's mobile encirclement and suppression corps of the Kwantung Army continued to advance in the direction of Jinzhou. The devils in North China still showed no sign of being transferred. Patronage, everything else, behaved calmly.

On the contrary, Yin Rugeng's security forces seemed to be very active. In the Haiyang area, after a few days of confrontation with Yuan Jinghao's detachment and Tong Batu's second cavalry detachment, they tentatively launched several small-scale attacks. In addition, nothing was fished, because the troops had not received a combat order and were in a defensive posture, and Yin Rugeng's security forces showed no sign of withdrawing.

Tang Qiuli spread the special warfare detachment to most of Hebei, mainly to monitor the movements of the Japanese army in North China. He always wondered if the Japanese army had a bigger conspiracy to use the two major military groups of the North China Army and the Kwantung Army to take action against him. The strategy of encircling the north and the south, gathering and annihilating them, the devils in North China are not moving, they are waiting for the troops of the Kwantung Army.

As for the Yin Rugeng Security Corps in front of him, these 1 mobs alone cannot stop him. As long as the mobile troops of the Kwantung Army arrive in Jinzhou and his next attack direction is clear, he can confirm his guess.

However, it doesn't matter, the troops can turn to the northwest, and in the Chahar and Rehe areas, contain most of the Japanese troops in North China and Northeast China. The troops stationed in the Pingjin area and the major military points in the Rehe area were all pulled out to see what the devils would use to launch the "July [-]th" Incident.

A few days later, the troops of the Kwantung Army finally entered Jinzhou, and immediately after a large number of Japanese troops went south, Tang Qiuli nervously watched Nanjiro's next move.

The Kwantung Army passed through Jinzhou, went to Huludao, Xingcheng, crossed the Liugu River, and entered the Suizhong line.

Tang Qiuli breathed a sigh of relief, feeling a little disappointed in his heart. His attempt to introduce the devils from the Northeast to North China and stimulate Chairman Jiang of the Nanjing government failed. Troops, change their overall strategic layout, and stick to the original plan of invading China?

Tang Qiuli was somewhat confused about the actions of the Japanese army, so he simply didn't think about it. The security forces of the traitor Yin Rugeng couldn't bear it these days, and launched many attacks on the positions of Yuan Jinghao's detachment, all of which were repelled .

Since this hard-core traitor wants to fight, he will not be polite to him. Tang Qiuli formulated a battle plan for the Yin Rugeng Security Corps. The core gist is one thing, wipe them out!

Tang Qiuli was filled with disgust and hatred for Yin Rugeng. With the support of the Japanese, this hard-core traitor, under the guise of anti-communism, practiced the reality of traitor and traitor. Established on the 25th, the earliest was the Eastern Hebei Anti-Communist Autonomous Committee, with Tongzhou as the seat of the government, and the ruling area was about 8200 square kilometers.

Tang Qiuli has always been surprised that the Generalissimo Jiang in Nanjing tolerated this big traitor and bit off such a large piece of fat in eastern Hebei, which deprived the Nationalist Government of a natural defensive outpost and buffer zone to prevent the Japanese army from invading the Northeast. , It also made the Japanese armies in Northeast China and North China echo each other, connecting them as one, and helping each other.

It is reasonable to say that Chairman Jiang had factors that weakened Zhang Xueliang's strength in abandoning the Northeast, but there is no military group or local powerful faction in North China that can threaten Chairman Jiang's central position. This is not like Shanxi, where? There was a local emperor, Yan Xishan, who treated the iron barrels operated by Shanxi like iron barrels, and the needles could not be inserted into them.

In his previous life, whenever Tang Qiuli saw this period of history, he was always puzzled. Now, in this era, he still feels puzzled. What thoughts and considerations from that perspective.

The battle plan was distributed to each unit by Feng Jiwu and Zhao Yuhe. Just the day before the unit was about to take action, they suddenly received a report from the frontline unit, saying that the Nanjing Nationalist Government had sent a representative with important documents to request and communicate with the commander. meet.

In Shanhaiguan City, in an antique courtyard, Tang Qiuli and members of the headquarters met with representatives of the government. There were three of them. To Tang Qiuli's surprise, one of the representatives was the Tianjin Station of the Military Command Bureau. Mr. Liu Chengwan, my old acquaintance, Brother Liu, Tang Qiuli has always respected this old man in his heart. This old man, unlike those who engage in secret agents, always has an indescribable smell on him, which makes him One has to be on guard, at least, the friendship with oneself is sincere, and it is of great help to oneself.

As soon as the two met, the sincerity and enthusiasm stunned the other two representatives of the government. , but Qiu Li, the bloody hand who was held in high esteem by Chairman Jiang, had already established a relationship.

Judging by their intimacy, the relationship must be unusual. No wonder we were puzzled when Liu Chengwan was sent as the representative! Why did a big spy get involved in this matter?It turned out that the higher-ups had already thought about it, and with him, the safety factor was much higher when dealing with this blood-handed Qiuli who killed the Japanese without blinking an eye.

Liu Chengwan's face was flushed. It seemed that the recent days were going well. With a proud expression on his face, he introduced two other government representatives to Tang Qiuli. One was Qin Yude, deputy secretary-general of the Nanjing Executive Yuan. One is Wang Rushan, secretary-general under Song Zheyuan, chairman of the Jicha Political Affairs Committee. [

The purpose of these three representatives is to deliver a letter written by Generalissimo Jiang. In the letter, Generalissimo Jiang praised Tang Qiuli for his achievements in the Northeast for several years, calling him a national elite and a leader of the country. talent.

Of course, Tang Qiuli understood that Generalissimo Jiang was not a friendly person. In the past few years in the Northeast, the Kwantung Army had been battered and wounded, and the attention of the Japanese government was drawn to the Northeast, which greatly eased the situation. Generalissimo Jiang, under the military and political pressure in North China, he kept fighting in the Northeast, and he fought in the dark with the Kwantung Army. The Japanese army in North China seldom made small moves, and there were fewer headaches for Chairman Jiang, so he could concentrate on dealing with them. Zhu Mao Red Army.

After boasting about himself, he said euphemistically that because of the opposition of many bigwigs in the government, he said that he was of unknown origin and had deep grievances with the Japanese. Japan disputes, but not beautiful, and so on, in a word, he, Generalissimo Jiang, is also very embarrassed, I hope Tang Qiuli understands his difficulties.

The organization and designation of a group army that was originally planned to be promised is really difficult to realize, and only the designation of one division can be given. As for the organization, there is still a lot of room for it. If it's not good to rigidly restrict the establishment, wouldn't that force you to reduce your troops?How could Generalissimo Chiang, who is proficient in tactics, make such a low-level mistake.

The designation given was that the National Revolutionary Army newly created the North China Independent Division, and there were brigades and regiments under the division. As for how to set it up, it was up to Tang Qiuli to decide and report to the Ministry of Military and Political Affairs for the record. The Ministry of Military and Political Affairs is directly under the jurisdiction. In view of the current situation, it was transferred to the 29th Army for restraint.

Tang Qiuli, the commander of the independent division, has the rank of lieutenant general, the brigade commander has the rank of major general, and the head of the regiment has the rank of colonel. The other officers at all levels are awarded corresponding military ranks according to their positions. The officer's commission was issued by the Ministry of Military and Political Affairs, and Qin Yude, Deputy Secretary-General of the Executive Yuan, carried it with him, and presided over the award ceremony on behalf of Chairman Jiang.

At the end of the letter, Generalissimo Jiang proposed that after a short-term rest in North China, the Independent Division would go to Shaanxi to fight against the Red Army on the front line, and cooperate with Zhang Xueliang and Yang Hucheng to wipe out the remnants of Zhu Mao's Red Army fleeing to northern Shaanxi as soon as possible, and make new contributions to the party and state.

After reading this dizzyingly long letter, Tang Qiuli understood Chairman Jiang's meaning. The whole text is just those few sentences at the end, which are the real drama and Chairman Jiang's true intention. , are all flowers and applause, and they are also necessary bargaining chips in exchange for my own troops to go to the front line to suppress the Communists in northern Shaanxi. His Chairman Chiang's words.

Tang Qiuli admired Chairman Jiang's political skills and scheming skills. In a letter, all the means of a political figure were brought into full play.

The representatives of the three national governments, holding clear tea in their hands, looked at the expression on the young man's face. They couldn't guess his inner activities and changes. According to their own understanding, they tried to test Tang Qiuli's thoughts. The room was extremely quiet. .
