Chapter 567 Fujian Raiders (35)

"When did Lao Jiang become so generous? Could it be that his character changed after being detained once?" Ouyang Yun was deeply surprised when he heard the news that all the Fujian garrison had defected, so he said to Li Tieshu.

Li Tieshu also felt a little unbelievable, because this is really not Lao Jiang's style. "It's not right, I think there must be a conspiracy!"

Li Tieshu is not alone in holding this view. In fact, among the senior generals of the Xuebing Army, including the former Cantonese, nine out of ten hold this view.Of course, there are also people who are optimistic about this matter, such as Li Hanhun.The reason is that this credit was won by him and the Second Army. He believes that this is not just Lao Jiang's idea, it should be pressured by Ou Shounian and others.After all, it is an indisputable fact that the Xuebing Army sent troops to Fujian, and with the little troops in the hands of Ou Shounian and others, it is naturally unbearable to confront the Xuebing Army. In order to repay Ouyang Yun's efforts in the Xi'an Incident.

What is the real situation?Naturally, only Lao Jiang is the most qualified.The false surrender of the 60th, 61st, and 78th divisions was actually only a part of it. Another important reason was that Lixingshe had already grasped the information about the annexation of Fujian that Li and Bai had sent when they visited Ouyang Yun.He believes that if the Xuebing Army is only allowed to profit in Fujian, it will inevitably cause conflicts between the Xuebing Army and the Guangxi Clique.

Lao Jiang played this hand really beautifully, but he forgot a characteristic of the Xuebing Army.That is the wealth of the cadet army.No matter what the original purpose of Ou Shounian and others was, and no matter how they stuck to their beliefs, Ouyang Yun believed that as long as he was willing to pay, he would eventually reap the hearts of the three divisions from the [-]th Route Army.As for the Guangxi family, it's easier to handle.Xue Bingjun found that the production capacity of the arsenal had already increased, and it only took a year and a half to solve their own equipment problems, after which they could start production and sales.Xue Bingjun now has a number of high-quality products, led by medicines, electronics and ordnance to keep up, so they are not afraid that they will not be able to bribe Li and Bai. After all, Fujian is still a Guangdong away from them, but those medicines and guns are reality. visible benefits.

Ever since, in response to the possible conspiracy, another reorganization movement of the Xuebing Army began.On the basis of the original three armies, the Fourth Xue Army was added again, of which Jiang Guangnai was the commander.Jiang Guangnai, as the supreme commander of the original [-]th Route Army and the former director of Fujian Appeasement, was forced to step down because of the failure of the incident, but because of his accumulated reputation, he was still loved by the officers and soldiers from the original [-]th Route Army.Once Ou Shounian and Lao Jiang heard the news, they knew that half of their hard work had failed.

The connection between Jiang Guangnai and Ouyang Yun actually originated from Ouyang Yun's first unfinished trip to the United States.And because the anti-Japanese actions after the Xuebing Army were highly praised by the former, Jiang Guangnai happily accepted Ouyang Yun's invitation to return to Fujian from Hong Kong to preside over the overall situation, even though he was obviously much older than Ouyang Yun.Not only served as the commander of the Xuebing Army, but also served as the deputy commander of the Xuebing Army and the director of the Fujian Special Zone.

On the Guangxi side, when Li and Bai first heard the news from the newspaper, they were indeed very angry, thinking that they had been tricked by Ouyang Yun. , two people relieved.I think Ouyang Yun's sincerity is enough. As for the land in Fujian, well, you can take it if you want, but remember that the old brother must have a share of the annual harvest!

I won’t go into details here, because just after the Xuebing Army was officially expanded into four armies, two independent divisions and three independent brigades, the flames of war in North China have been rekindled.

This time, the difference in adapting to the history of that time and space is that the Japanese did not fiddle with the Marco Polo Bridge Incident, but directly raised troops from Qingdao to create the so-called "Liaocheng Incident".

The cause of the Liaocheng Incident is somewhat related to the Xuebing Army.It was precisely because of Li Tieshu's management in Liaocheng that although the Xuebing army had all withdrawn from North China, a security brigade in Liaocheng that was completely organized according to the formation of the Xuebing army remained.The brigade commander was Wang Baoqiang, who was originally a deputy head of the Liaocheng security regiment. Because he was more upright and extremely hated the Japanese, Li Tieshu entrusted him with a heavy responsibility and became the leader of the anti-Japanese armed forces in Liaocheng and surrounding areas.

After the Xuebing army withdrew from North China, all the places where Shandong and other provinces bordered were designated as demilitarized zones. In order to gain actual control of these areas, the Japanese resorted to tricks and bought a group of traitors and white dogs.However, when other places are actually controlled by the Japanese, Liaocheng has become a restricted area for the Japanese.Not to mention military observers, even Japanese businessmen will face all sorts of obstacles when they enter the region.The Japanese played all kinds of tricks, but in the end they failed to settle Wang Baoqiang. Impatiently, they created this incident.They first found someone to pretend to be a Japanese businessman, causing him to have a dispute with the Liaocheng security forces and was "brutally killed."Then, the Japanese army took advantage of this excuse to send troops to Liaocheng, and launched an aggressive operation in a grand manner.Wang Baoqiang had been taught by Li Tieshu for "many years" (the party said to himself), so naturally he refused to give in, so a small-scale war broke out.With the escalation of the scale of confrontation between the two sides, the Japanese army began to send troops to North China on a large scale without concealing it, and began a long-planned comprehensive invasion of China.

As soon as the "Liaocheng Incident" happened, as the mouthpiece of the Xuebing Army, the "Xuebingjun Times" immediately disclosed and reported it in depth, and called on the people of the whole country to unite, swear to the death not to be slaves of the subjugated country, and must kill the evil Japanese invaders. drive out.

Then, as the War of Resistance in Shanghai and Hebei-Chasar was fully launched, Lao Jiang began to publish the "Message to All Soldiers", saying: "Since peace is hopeless, the only way to fight to the end" is to call on the people of the whole country and all armed forces to unite to defend the country. Country - also known as: "There is no distinction between the north and the south of the land, and regardless of the age, all have the responsibility of defending the land and resisting the war!" This also marks the beginning of GG's second cooperation.

So far, the Anti-Japanese War broke out in an all-round way. In order to better coordinate the forces and achieve the grand strategic goal of "trading space for time", the National Military Commission divided the country into seven theaters. Among them, Ouyang Yun was assigned to the third theater, and He Yingqin served as the commander-in-chief of the theater, and was responsible for the defense and resistance tasks in Fujian and Guangdong.
