blood feud

After receiving the telegram from Wei Chong, Bai Shujie couldn't believe it: "What? He Yingqin, an old fox, is so happy that he promised to send Yin Rugeng and Pan Yugui, two bastards here?"

"report!"

At this moment, Xiao Lamei came in with a face full of excitement and said, "Brother, telegrams have been sent from Gubeikou, Huangyaguan, Xifengkou, Shentouling, and Majiazi Fortress, saying that all the little devils in the front have suddenly stopped attacking." That is to say, at 10:30 this morning, there were no gunshots on the battlefield around the entire Rehe province!"

"What? What did you say?"

Bai Shujie grabbed the telegrams, and sure enough there were several. After browsing through them, he was immediately dumbfounded: "The enemy in front of Shentouling Fortress retreated two kilometers, and did not continue to fire. Zhang Xiang. The cavalry artillery regiment in front of Majiazi Fortress retreated three kilometers , I don’t know what I want to do. Hou Zide. The shelling at Xifengkou has stopped, I don’t know what Tada Jun wants to do. Blue Caiqin.”

The news of the truce on the front line immediately alarmed the entire headquarters, and Zhao Jinxi, Gan Tong, and Lu Ming came over one after another to ask the reason.Even Cao Fengxiang, the Governor of Rehe Province, and Zhao Meiyan, the head and political commissar of the Xiongxian Independent Regiment, arrived at the headquarters two hours later.

"Everyone, don't look at me like that. The little devils all stopped attacking at the same time. It's true, but it has nothing to do with me!" Bai Shujie saw everyone staring at him, so he had to explain quickly: "As for There must be a reason why the little devils are so in step this time."

"However, no matter what, we can't take it lightly. I think it is necessary to immediately order the front-line combat troops to maintain combat vigilance 24 hours a day to prevent the plots of little devils. At the same time, take advantage of this rare opportunity to build up our reserve forces , Prepare to deal with more complicated situations!"

Xiao Lamei broke in again: "Report, Wei Chong's urgent telegram!"

Bai Shujie saw that all the top core figures in Rehe Province were inside the headquarters, and there was no need to read the telegrams one by one, so he called out softly: "Read!"

"Commander-in-Chief: Yin Rugeng and Pan Yugui have arrived in Langfang and are ready to go to Chengde at any time. After negotiation with Peking, they are allowed to go north from Gubeikou. How to deal with it, how to arrange the route, and the restrictions on the accompanying personnel, please instruct. Wei Chong."

It turned out that after Yin Rugeng learned from He Yingqin that Bai Shujie wanted to contact the Japanese, in order to ask for credit, he returned to his residence and quickly sent a top-secret telegram to the head of the Tianjin Secret Service, Doihara Kenji.

In the telegram, Yin Rugeng explained how he had worked so hard and worked so hard that he finally got in touch with Bai Shujie.Currently, he is preparing to take a trip to Chengde, and he wants to use his three-inch tongue to shine like a lotus flower, so that Bai Shujie will return to the empire and be willing to be a pawn in the great cause of the common prosperity of Greater East Asia.

Does Kenji Doihara believe it?How is that possible!

However, this seven-way siege lasted for more than half a month, and the empire wasted a lot of ammunition, but it didn't achieve any size. Instead, it exhausted the empire's warriors.Now that Yin Rugeng and Pan Yugui have the opportunity to enter Chengde, there is a certain possibility after all.

The imperial warriors are exhausted, are Bai Shujie's soldiers made of iron?

As long as it is an individual, there will be times when you are tired, and when you are tired, you have to take a rest.Even if the negotiations are not successful, that's okay, and the siege needs to be adjusted for such a long time.It would be great if we could resolve the issue through negotiation.

Because of this, Doihara Kenji sent Yin Rugeng's telegram to the headquarters of the Kwantung Army Commander with his own judgment.

An hour later, Kenji Doihara received a call back from the commander's headquarters: "If Bai Shujie is willing to serve the empire, you can promise to give him the post of commander-in-chief of the three armies of Manchukuo and grant him the rank of lieutenant general. The troops can be reorganized into Four divisions. It is still the governor of Rehe Province. There is no need to exchange defense zones, as long as the eighth division enters Luanping County and is stationed! To show sincerity, there will be a ceasefire across the board at 09:30 tomorrow morning."

Kenji Doihara didn't expect the commander's headquarters to be so anxious, so he forwarded this telegram to Yin Rugeng as a basis for negotiation without hesitation.

Bai Shujie didn't know what the little devil was thinking.But with the keen eyesight of a soldier, he also found some clues.

Because he knew Yin Rugeng and Pan Yugui well, and Duo Tianjun was willing to open the Gubei Passage to let them out, Bai Shujie quickly understood: "These two guys are self-righteous, thinking that I invited them to come here to be lobbyists! Since In this case, it is better to follow the plan and take what they need!"

"Lamei records the order!" Bai Shujie didn't discuss with other people present, and directly dictated an order: "Wei Chong's department dispatched Zou Baoyin's second battalion to form an escort team, escorted the guests to Chicheng, handed over to Shao Jianzhang, and then assumed the defense of Chicheng. Rao The other troops of the An Independence Regiment withdrew immediately and returned to Jinghai County to wait for the next order, Dong Guoqiang and the other two regiments can be released."

"The original task of forming the Cangzhou Independent Regiment must be implemented as soon as possible. At the same time, extensive spring conscription work must be carried out in Raoyang, Anping, Hejian, and Renqiu. The administrative management institutions of villages and towns must be further improved, and spring plowing in the jurisdiction must be further strengthened. In addition, use this harvest to widely purchase grains and grains as a strategic reserve. The heavy equipment you need will be received in Chicheng in the future. This order, Bai Shujie."

After this telegram was sent out, Bai Shujie negotiated with several giants about the defense of Fengning and Chicheng: "Everyone, our defense area has been further expanded, and the strength of our troops has become even more tense. Now, in Guyuan on the northern border of Chicheng, there is Li There are more than [-] miscellaneous armed forces under the Shouxin Office. The core of this force is the former Fengtian Independent Cavalry Regiment of the Northeast Army, which was once captured by us, with more than [-] people."

"Northwest of Chicheng already belongs to Chahar, and they met directly with the Little Devil's Sixth Division. Earlier, there was news from Chen Jie that the Little Devil's Seventh Division landed in Dalian, and then took the train to Tongliao. I thought this The enemy will participate in the attack on Chifeng, but I didn’t expect Hou Zide to send a telegram the day before yesterday saying that the Seventh Division is going all the way west.”

"Judging from the current situation, the [-]th Division is going to Guisui to take over the defense, and let the [-]th Division return to the island to make up. In this sense, we are in the south of Kailu and the [-]th Independent Cavalry Brigade. The stalemate of the cavalry regiment is actually being fooled, the little devil should be worried that we will ambush the Seventh Division on the way!"

"Therefore, the Sixth Division's formation on the Zhangbei line was just a feint. It was to scare Zhao Dengyu's 132nd Division before retreating, so that they would not dare to act rashly. Therefore, this is an opportunity for us. When the Seventh Division is not yet familiar with the defense area, hurry up and complete the deployment of Fengning and Chicheng. Jin Xi and Gan Tong are in charge of the specific matters concerning the formation of the Chicheng Independent Division. Lu Ming is in charge of the coordination of the various theaters."

"Governor Cao still needs to do a good job in logistics, especially the placement of the wounded. In addition, inform Sheng Zhiguo and Qin Yuefang to receive distinguished guests. Sheng Zhiguo is responsible for making arrangements so that all the little devils can see that Yin Rugeng and Pan Yugui are inspecting! I think everyone I know, these two guys are instigating North China autonomy everywhere. So the rest is Qin Yuefang's business, anyway, these two people don't want to go back to Beiping to make trouble and betray the country."

After arranging work for everyone, Bai Shujie locked himself up again.The current situation is very delicate, and he must think it over.

The little devil used Yin Rugeng and Pan Yugui to come over and play sloppy, he must be thinking of killing two birds with one stone.If the old man surrenders, the little devil will get Rehe without bloodshed; if the old man is not fooled, the little devil will also want to use these two bastards to make the old man careless, and then suddenly give him a guy.

Bai Shujie is well aware of the little devil's despicable habits. What he needs to pay attention to now is that the pressure from Tongliao has not been resolved, and the goal of taking back the Kulun Banner has not been realized.The two devils in Montenegro did not take advantage of it, but were killed by heavy artillery from Shentouling.Jinzhou's Eighth Division has not moved, are they going to go back to make up?

There were only so many people under Tada Jun's command. This time he failed to steal the chicken, and Chen Junda killed almost a brigade. Wei Chong also almost killed a brigade around Tianjin. The Tianjin Garrison's infantry regiment has been reduced by half. I can't make any waves for the time being.

Especially this Seventh Division, Bai Shujie couldn't be more familiar with it!If the fourth division of the little devil is a "trader and wimp division", then this seventh division is a "hybrid catastrophe division"!

The current head of the Seventh Division should be called Miyotaro Sugihara.Under the jurisdiction of the 25th (Sapporo), 26th (Asahikawa), '(Asahikawa), ((Asahikawa) four infantry regiments, a cavalry regiment, a field artillery regiment, and an engineering regiment. Plus The division headquarters, field hospital, and communication brigade have a total strength of more than 2 people.

Anyone who is familiar with the organization of the Little Devils' army knows that each division of the Little Devils has its own fixed area for replenishment of troops.That is to say, where this division is formed, this place is his supplementary area for soldiers.

And before the "July 100th Incident", the little devil's supplementary division had the same designation as the front-line combat division, but "102" was added in front of the designation.For example, the supplementary division of the Second Division is the 107nd Division.The supplementary division of the [-]th Division is the [-]th Division.And so on for other divisions.

The parent body of the Seventh Division is the Tuntian Bing established in Hokkaido in 1885 according to the "Tuntian Bing Regulations".Tuntian Bing was responsible for both the development of Hokkaido and the defense of the north.It is a half-agricultural and half-soldier army that usually cultivates and engages in farming; if there is a war, it will go into battle.

Unlike the previous 6 divisions, it was very late to be reorganized into a division.After the Sino-Japanese War of 1896, it was officially reorganized into the Seventh Division.Each wing under its jurisdiction is recruited and supplemented from the 4 wing areas of Sapporo, Asahikawa, Hakodate and Kushiro.

However, the population of Hokkaido was very small at that time, and sometimes if a unit was not recruited in the unit area, the lack of manpower could only be supplemented by the Northeast region (Aomori, Iwate, Yamagata, etc.).This situation continued until the Marco Polo Bridge "July [-]th Incident" broke out, so the Seventh Division was also called the "Hybrid Division".

After all, what happens next, let's see the breakdown in the next chapter.
