Age of Rebirth

Chapter 230 Three Guard Commander

All the senior officers, after saluting Tang Qiuli one by one, sat quietly on their chairs and looked at him with gratitude and admiration in their eyes. This young lieutenant general, as bright as the sun, gave them a spring breeze. a feeling of.

I am used to seeing the faces of those central government officials, and a short time with Tang Qiuli can make them feel relaxed and gain a lot, especially when they hear about his method of handling Japanese consulates, these officers think When I got up, I couldn't help smiling.

Following such an officer, you will never be angry with the little devil again. This alone is worthy of everyone's trust and respect.

Under everyone's eager eyes, Tang Qiuli smiled brightly like the sun, and this smile blew through their hearts like a spring breeze. [

"Commanders, Qiuli knows that our troops have relatively low equipment. Many soldiers use rifles made in the late Qing Dynasty, and some troops are not even equipped with rifles, so they can only use broadswords. It has tempered the bravery of the soldiers!"

This is Tang Qiuli's sincere words, and there is absolutely no meaning of ridicule. The troops who can use cold weapons such as broadswords and dare to fight the Japanese have a spirit that is not afraid of death. Moreover, the 29th Army The Big Swords team really made the little devil famous and changed his face.

The "March of the Big Swords", which is well-known in the anti-Japanese battlefields all over the country, is based on the Broadsword Team of the 29th Army. Stretched alternative feeling.

For such troops, such soldiers, no one has the right to mock or despise them. Any disrespect is a desecration of the anti-Japanese heroes. In Tang Qiuli's heart, there is only respect!lofty respect!

Hearing such words, all the officers present bowed their heads in shame. What Tang Qiuli said was the truth. These officers can only blame themselves for their lives. Who told us that we are not the direct line of the chairman of the army, and the equipment and supplies have never been ours. portion!

It is even worse than your independent division, which is the new darling of Nanjing. As soon as they arrived in North China, they all changed their clothes. The 29th Army picked up the rags you left behind and treated them like treasures. It can't help but feel a little sour.

In all fairness, the equipment replaced by the independent division is very good, but the soldiers are not used to certain types of Japanese equipment, such as light machine guns, crooked handles are not as easy to use as the Czech ones, the troops are in the northeast, and the little devils After playing for more than four years, all Japanese equipment, can it be worse?

Based on these factors, Tang Qiuli wanted to change this situation. The spirit of the big sword would be preserved forever, but the warrior who used the big sword could no longer face the devil's son. In that case, Tang Qiuli's heart would bleed.

"However, we can't let the flesh and blood of our soldiers face the Japanese invaders. The independent division still has some idle equipment, which can be paid for by our 29th Army. Peiping, equip the troops as soon as possible."

After Tang Qiuli finished speaking, he looked at everyone with a smile on his face, showing no sign of charity.

All the officers, including Song Zheyuan, were stupefied with shock. What happened today gave them too much shock. First, Tang Qiuli was suddenly appointed as the deputy commander of the army, and then the troops of the independent division were not allowed to enter Beiping and Tianjin, these two fertile lands, now has to provide equipment to the 29th Army.

You must know that the 29th Army has nothing to do with him, and he is even reluctant to be a friend. After all, he just met him. Besides, when the independent division changed clothes in Zhuozhou last time, it had already left a lot for the 29th Army.

The officers couldn't turn their heads around a bit. Guns have always been the lifeblood of every army. Those who are willing to give them to others, General Tang, who are you? Why are you so righteous?

Seeing the appearance of these officers, Tang Qiuli knew that the impact on them was too great, so he could only ask: "Do you have any opinions?"

These officers just woke up like a dream, and they agreed again and again, such a good thing, and that objection, they are not fools plus idiots!

Tang Qiuli turned to Zhao Yuhe and said, "Director Zhao, report the list of equipment that the Independent Division can produce to everyone here!"

Before Zhao Yuhe came to Peiping, he had received orders from his division commander, so he was well prepared. He stood up and won a burst of admiration from everyone. Mr. Tang's subordinates were all young and handsome officers. No more than 25 years old is the rank of colonel. In the 29th Army, at this age, it is very good to be a captain.

Zhao Yuhe stood at attention and saluted. He was clean and agile, and his movements were chic and beautiful. All the officers were pleasing to the eye.

"Reporting to the division commander, the number of idle equipment in the independent division is as follows: Type 480 rifles, 190 pieces, crooked light machine guns, 120 pieces, Type 75 heavy machine guns, 200 pieces, [-] mortars, [-] pieces , [-] Type [-] infantry guns, [-] [-]mm caliber mountain guns, [-] million rounds of various types of guns and guns, [-] Japanese grenades, the report is over!" [

The officers of the 29th Army were completely overwhelmed. What does it mean to be rich and powerful? What does it mean to have a big family and a big business? Look at them, they have equipped more than 29 troops, and there are so many idle. The artillery alone is enough for the [-]th Army to form an artillery brigade. more than!

These officers were all ashamed of their narrow-minded thinking just now. They didn’t lack anything. They didn’t come here to grab territory, but they really wanted to fight devils and help our 29th Army.

In front of these officers, Tang Qiuli dictated an order to Zhao Yuhe: "Immediately send a telegram to Director Zhang of the Logistics Department, one, take out two-thirds of all idle equipment and all idle medicines, The fastest speed, transport to Peiping, two, order the logistics department, within [-] days, must send this batch of equipment and medicine."

"Send a telegram to Deputy Division Commander Liu that the transportation team needs a heavy escort, and order Li Honggang's only brigade, Tang Qiuquan's first and second brigades of the special detachment, and Liu Chun's cavalry first brigade and first and second regiments to escort the transportation team to Peiping. Feng Jiwu led the team."

Tang Qiuli had his own considerations. A full-scale war with the little devils is inevitable. The Independent Division and the 29th Army will face hundreds of thousands of well-equipped and vicious enemies. The strength of the Independent Division alone will be very difficult. With the 29th Army With the help of the 29th Army, the chances of winning will be greater. To help the [-]th Army is to help yourself.

It's a pity that during the eight years of the War of Resistance, many generals of the national army couldn't understand this point, didn't understand the truth of death, and blindly preserved their strength, sitting back and watching their allies be wiped out or exhausted, especially the miscellaneous troops and local power factions. What's more, the result was defeated by the Japanese army one by one. This is also the evil result of the Chairman's strategy of killing with a knife.

On this point, Tang Qiuli really admired the way of the devils, one point was attacked, and the rest of the ministries desperately rescued them, flocking to them, absolutely preserving their strength.

Therefore, on Chinese soil, the devils can control a large area as long as they build a turret the size of a pigsty. The lack of heavy weapons for the Chinese army is a factor, and the decisive factor is the Japanese army as a whole Awareness and the spirit of desperate rescue.

Zhao Yuhe went out to send a telegram, and the officers were all talking nonsense with joy. With these equipment, the strength of the 29th Army will undergo a qualitative change, especially Deputy Commander Tang, who is equipped with so many medicines. , I really want to have a fight with the little devil now.

Song Zheyuan was so excited that tears filled his eyes. He took Tang Qiuli's hand and nodded again and again, but he couldn't say a word. He really didn't know how to express his current mood. Thank you for being polite and helping the 29th Army , I can't express it all thanks, because with the arrival of this young man, the 29th Army and his own destiny will undergo fundamental changes.

Since Yu Xuezhong was transferred away, he was like a lonely night walker in the night surrounded by tigers and wolves, trembling every step, guarding his whole body, not daring to let go, making him physically and mentally exhausted. Now, the independent teacher has come, Tang With the arrival of Qiu Li, everything will change!

He loudly silenced the officers, who were in a state of extreme excitement, and announced another appointment: "Deputy commander of the 29th Army, commander of the independent division, Lieutenant General Tang Qiuli, will take up the post of commander of the Pingjin Garrison Command. Song Zheyuan is no longer in this position, and he is full-time commander of the 29th Army and chairman of the Jicha Political Affairs Committee."

Because this is a matter within his scope of authority, he does not need to report to the Nanjing government and the Military Commission for approval, and he can directly appoint it.

This time, all the officers did not express any objection, and expressed their welcome to Tang Qiuli for taking up this position with warm applause. The enthusiasm was completely out of sincerity. To deal with the Japanese, people like Deputy Commander Tang were needed. Others really have no choice.

Tang Qiuli was another accident. Today, Tang Qiuli was surprised by the same things as the officers of the 29th Army. The Pingjin Police Commander is an important position. Under the circumstances, it is definitely a department with real power.

This means that, apart from Song Zheyuan, I am the number two person in Pingjin and even North China, and I am an absolutely powerful faction. I don’t know how the Japanese will feel when I sit in this position. With deep hatred, it is inevitable to put pressure on Song Zheyuan and demand his dismissal. After all, it is absolutely unfavorable for the Japanese to sit in this position.

I don't know what the chairman of the committee in Nanjing will think. I feel uncomfortable and even have a lot of suspicion. That's for sure. The old man is a suspicious person. He doesn't think he is complete and falls into Song Zheyuan's arms, right?

The Japanese didn't care about him. They didn't want the devils to occupy North China comfortably. Where the old man is, he had to be more careful. Don't let He Yingqin and his like get in the way. By the end of the year, when the Xi'an Incident broke out, everything would be clear. Treat Japan any way and there will be no trouble from within.

Song Zheyuan announced the last decision. In order to welcome Deputy Army Commander Tang to come to Beiping to perform his duties, a grand welcome reception will be held at the Yanjing Hotel at [-]:[-] tonight. At that time, celebrities from all walks of life in Pingjin will participate!
