Chapter 2287 War Zone
Under the headquarters, there is a general command of the navy, land and air forces, and the commander in chief is Ouyang Yun, the Minister of National Defense.In terms of senior officers at the deputy commander level, the Xuebing Army has recruited Jiang Guangnai as the third deputy commander in chief of the army, Chu Tiange as the fifth deputy commander in chief of the army, Li Tieshu as the second deputy chief of staff of the army, and Tielin Fei as the second deputy chief of staff of the army. The second deputy commander-in-chief of the Air Force, Wang Hai was the third deputy commander-in-chief of the Air Force; Chen Ce was the first deputy commander-in-chief of the navy, Chen Shichang was the third deputy commander-in-chief of the navy, and Chen Yuanyang was the second deputy chief of staff of the navy.Below the general command of the armed forces is the strategic command, which is only second and a half levels.Feng Yuxiang, Li Zongren and others once expressed their puzzlement when Ouyang Yun proposed to establish a strategic command.After Ouyang Yun repeatedly asked them to keep it secret, and then showed the latest surface-to-surface missiles, they understood the importance of this unit.The Strategic Command not only governs the missile force, but will also be fully responsible for counter-espionage and intelligence work. After the establishment of this unit, there will be two subordinate departments, one is the Central Intelligence Agency, and the other is the Office of Strategic Defense.Mu Jiandie is the commander-in-chief of the Strategic Command, Chang Gen is the director of the Central Intelligence Agency, and Gu Lianyun is the director of the Strategic Defense Office.

The command headquarters replaced the military committee, and the theater during the military committee period would naturally have to be re-divided.This was the central topic of the meeting. After Ouyang Yun announced the appointments of Feng Yuxiang, Chen Cheng, Li Zongren, Deng Xihou and others to the headquarters, this topic was immediately put on the agenda.Feng Yuxiang failed to get what he wanted in the end, but the First Deputy Commander-in-Chief of the Army, plus Ouyang Yun's promise to allocate him a bodyguard division, can be regarded as a good explanation for his old predecessor.Among everyone's appointments, those related to Chen Cheng were the focus.Chen Cheng will not only serve as Deputy Defense Minister, but will also serve as Army Chief of Staff.In addition to him, there are two other people from the Department of Civil Engineering who have been allowed to join the High Command. They are Lin Wei, who is the head of the Military Advisory Office of the High Command, and Zhou Zhirou, who is the Chief of Staff of the Air Force.

Ouyang Yun's appointment of senior military officers at the command level was actually the result of a political compromise.After the announcement of the appointment, naturally some people are happy, some are worried, and some are dismissive.Fortunately, no one raised any doubts on the spot, which was one of the benefits brought by Chen Cheng's appointment as deputy defense minister.

The re-division of the war zone is actually related to the future survival and development space of each faction. At least, nine out of ten people in the meeting thought so, so when Ouyang Yun announced it, the people who were still whispering immediately shut up Needless to say, those who were sitting upright couldn't help but straighten their bodies, and each of them sat upright, becoming more cautious.

Before the formation of the coalition government, according to the division of the military committee, the country was divided into twelve war zones.At that time, the military committee's criteria for dividing theaters were based entirely on geographical standards. As the war progressed, many theaters were actually completely occupied by the Japanese army, and troops had to retreat to the rear or enter other theaters.To put it bluntly, these war zones have lost their foothold and can actually be banned.Lao Jiang didn't do this at the time, so what about Ouyang Yun now?This is the focus of all attention.

The commanders of the ten war zones, apart from Yan Xishan, the commander of the second war zone in Shanxi, Zhu Shaoliang, the commander of the eighth war zone in Gansu, Fu Zuoyi, the commander of the Yicha war zone in Chahar, and Zhang Fakui who is on the front line , There should be six people, but in fact only four people arrived.They are Li Zongren, Commander of the Fifth Theater, Yang Sen, Commander of the Ninth Theater, Jiang Dingwen, Commander of the Tenth Theater, and Yu Xuezhong, Commander of the Sulu Theater.Among the four, Yu Xuezhong was Ouyang Yun's old subordinate, while Li Zongren and Yang Sen had a good personal relationship with Ouyang Yun, so they would definitely be there.As for Jiang Dingwen, because the army was almost exhausted in Shaanxi, he had to rely on the "central government" if he wanted to make a comeback, so he had to come.The two who didn't show up were Wei Lihuang, the commander of the first war zone, and Gu Zhutong, the commander of the third war zone.

Wei Lihuang didn't come because his wife had just died of illness, and because he was busy rescuing his daughter and son who were in trouble.Wei Lihuang's first war zone still controls many areas in Henan. The reason why he was transferred back to Chongqing was because he was too close to the Communist Party, which aroused Lao Jiang's vigilance, and Lao Jiang specially transferred him back. He wanted to beat him up and give him a chance to rein in the precipice.However, current events made people, because the Japanese army immediately launched the "Operation Qinling", and his wife was seriously ill, so he was stranded in Chongqing, and unexpectedly lost the opportunity to return to the front line in Henan.

Gu Zhutong didn't come because of Hu Shisan and his Santai guerrilla column. In 41, when Fox Shisan had just set up the guerrilla column of Santai, Gu Zhutong's unit had friction with the New Fourth Army. The two sides fought at Huangqiao, and Gu Zhutong called Linghu Shisan for support.However, Fox Shisan refused on the pretext that the Xuebing Army would not beat his own people.During the battle, the 7000 GMD army was defeated by 89 members of the New Fourth Army. Gu Zhutong's confidant, Li Shouwei, the commander of the [-]th Army, was also drowned on the way to escape. This directly caused the GMD Army to lose a foothold in Jiangsu. a big hate.Colleague Gu Zhu summed up the reasons, not mentioning the lack of combat power of the unit, but shifted the responsibility to the Santai guerrilla column, thinking that it was because of Fox Shisan's reluctance to save the Central Army that it caused the defeat of the Central Army.In addition, the Santai guerrilla column later completely controlled the Santai area and turned a deaf ear to his order to join the establishment of the third theater, which completely offended him.When the notice from the High Command was delivered to his door, he did not let the officer who sent the notice in at all, and said the following to his subordinate officers: It is said that the Xuebing Army beat the Japanese so hard. According to me, the Xuebing Army The army is best at seizing territory.The student soldiers don't beat their own people?Beautiful words, but is there anything more shameless than taking advantage of a country's calamity to rise to power?It was worthless to demote Ouyang Yun and Xue Bingjun.

Gu Zhutong did not attend the meeting, but he was worried that his troops would be annexed, so he sent his confidant to attend, that is Han Deqin, who was the chairman of Jiangsu Province at the time.

Gu Zhutong didn't give Ouyang Yun and Xue Bingjun any face, and if he didn't come to the meeting, he naturally didn't have a place in the headquarters - Ouyang Yun's personnel appointment was announced to be over, and Han Deqin didn't hear Gu Zhutong's name from it, so it was a matter of course Think so, and therefore dismiss it.And when Ouyang Yun announced that the division of the new station area would be discussed next, his ears immediately pricked up because his faction's vital interests were involved.
