The Republic of Heroes

On July [-], Wu Xiaoliang read a piece of news in the newspaper that made him inexplicable. Legislator Wu Tiecheng was suddenly appointed mayor of Shanghai.He secretly wondered, no, at this time Wu Tiecheng should be in Shenyang to persuade Zhang Xueliang to lead the army to go out to support Jiang Zhongzheng, why did he go to Shanghai to become the mayor?

The next day, what surprised Wu Xiaoliang even more was that Zhang Xueliang sent a telegram to inform the whole country that the Northeast Army had officially left the border to intervene in the Central Plains War and supported the central government in Nanjing.At the same time, in addition to appointing Zhang Xueliang as the deputy commander of the land, sea and air force, Chiang Kai-shek also appointed him as the chief executive. When the two sang together, Wu Xiaoliang immediately realized that Yan Feng's situation was gone. No wonder Wu Tiecheng took office as the mayor of Shanghai. Jiang's compliment to him.

Thinking back to the two months of war, Wu Xiaoliang shook his head and smiled wryly. The Central Plains War that he tried his best to prevent happened inevitably. The result is not bad.Zhang Xueliang also sent a telegram to support Chiang Kai-shek as in his previous life.The only change is that the time of the Central Plains War will be greatly shortened compared to the previous life.

The city of Jinan was suddenly plunged into a sea of ​​joy. People took to the streets, unable to restrain their anticipation, feeling the eve of peace, the war was finally coming to an end.

Since Zhang Xueliang energized and led the Northeast Army to enter the customs, he ordered Li Zejun's 57th Division to suspend operations in order to wait and see how the situation would develop. It would be best if they could surrender without fighting.Zhang Xueliang did not disappoint Wu Xiaoliang and the people of the whole country. Xu Yongchang was defeated by the [-] Northeast Army Taishan, and hurriedly withdrew from Pingjin and then retreated to Chahar. Hal's Xu Yongchang, when the main force turned around, he pointed his sword at Taihang Mountain in Shanxi.

The "Qilu Times" used two full pages to report on Zhang Xueliang's military operations in Hebei. During the period, he occasionally introduced how he has supported the crisis on his own since the Baiqibao incident, broke through all resistance and changed the flag, making China change after ten years. Yu Nian was able to reunify after the split and melee, and praised his wise and great dispatch of troops, and the public opinion almost overwhelmingly praised this young marshal.

Wu Xiaoliang smiled slightly, and continued to look at other news. In an inconspicuous corner, a piece of news made his heart beat violently a few times.The original joy of the end of the war disappeared without a trace, and suddenly fell into a icy cold.

He grabbed the phone on the table and shouted: "Let the guards prepare the car, I'm going to Jinan Railway Station!" Then he grabbed another phone on the table and asked for the office of Secretary-General Zhu Wusheng.

"Lingsheng? I'm Wu Xiaoliang. I'm going to Tai'an today. You will be in charge of all the daily activities of the provincial government. Just follow the established strategy."

After putting down the phone, Wu Xiaoliang kept ringing the bell on the desk to call the secretary into the room without stopping.

"Generate electricity to Kaifeng. After receiving the telegram, the [-]th Division immediately moved like Yucheng and Shangqiu, waiting for further orders. The independent brigade was stationed in Kaifeng and could not take a step back. The armored brigade and cavalry brigade withdrew from Feicheng and returned to Tai'an to stand by! Defense of Feicheng The security brigade took over."

The secretary was quite surprised by this order. Wu Xiaoliang had already set the tone before. In view of the entry of the Northeast Army, it was only a matter of time before Yan Feng was defeated. Got an idea to do such a large-scale transfer?Is it necessary to encircle and wipe out the two Jin armies of Dingtao and Chengwu?

Although he was puzzled, he didn't dare to ask rashly, so he went to the telegraph room with a hundred incomprehensions to convey the order.

Wu Xiaoliang's move immediately had a great impact on the battle situation in Luyu. Sun Chu and Yang Xiaoou, who were entrenched in Dingtao and Chengwu, immediately felt threatened. It is difficult to protect themselves, and there is absolutely no possibility of victory, so they are soberly aware that they cannot get reinforcements, or even supplies.Shandong Wu Xiaoliang transferred the [-]th Division to move behind him, is it with the idea of ​​encircling and annihilating?Shang Zhen's defeat is the first, and his two Jin family miscellaneous brands are far behind. If it is really head-to-head, wouldn't it be an egg against a stone?

Sun Chu and Yang Xiaoou, a pair of troubled brothers, sat down to study for a while and concluded that Commander-in-Chief Yan's loss of power is a certainty, and it is better to turn against him than to be annihilated by others.However, the two blushed because of the dispute over who would surrender.

Sun Chudao: "Nanjing Chairman Jiang has always been waiting for an army of defectors, so it is better to gather brothers to vote for him."

"Brother Cuiya's words are wrong. Although Chairman Jiang's posture is sufficient, we are afraid that it will be just icing on the cake. The disarmament after the war will be the first one to fall on our brother. Shandong Wu Xiaoliang is not the case. He is just at the beginning. At the beginning, taking refuge at this time is bound to be reused."

Compared with Sun Chu, Yang Xiaoou is obviously more fond of Wu Xiaoliang, a rising star, but Sun Chu still doesn't take it seriously, "Brother Yiru, you only see one, but not the other. Although Wu Xiaoliang occupies a province, he is Like duckweed on the sea, it is a tree without roots. To the north of Shandong Province, there is the vigorous Northeast Army, and to the south is the Central Nationalist Government. Bearing the brunt will become a target, how much strength can he keep? Brother Yiru should think twice!"

A few words are actually penetrating...

In the end, the two didn't decide who would go up and who would go down, so they had to agree with each other that Sun Chu's first army went south to join Jiang Zhongzheng of the central government in Nanjing, while Yang Xiaoou secretly contacted Tai'an and decided to bring the whole second army to join him.

……

It was late at night on the 23rd when Wu Xiaoliang arrived in Tai'an. Li Zejun was greatly surprised. He didn't expect Wu Xiaoliang to arrive in a hurry in the middle of the night, and an ominous premonition hit his heart.Since the rebels were still in Shandong, Wu Xiaoliang's whereabouts were strictly kept secret for safety's sake. Even Li Zejun did not know the exact arrival time until more than ten minutes ago.

"The war is settled, why did the chairman come here? Is there anything else to worry about? Or..."

Wu Xiaoliang interrupted Li Zejun's speculation, with a serious face, he waved and said, "Go to the headquarters and tell me!"

After only saying a few words, he walked away and said nothing, his actions were so cold that Li Zejun couldn't help shivering, what's wrong, did something big happen?

Wu Xiaoliang and Li Zejun had just arrived at the headquarters in Tai'an City when an adjutant rushed to report.

"Good news, good news, the Jin army Yang Xiaoou sent someone here, and he hopes to surrender to our army."

"Oh?"

Wu Xiaoliang was astonished. He transferred the [-]th Division and returned without any intention of inserting willows and willows...
