Chapter 70 Devastated

Late at night on August 21, 1952.

The Wanzhou Telephone Office suddenly made a deafening explosion, and the fire that followed dyed half of Wanzhou City red. The radio station company adjacent to the telephone office was also affected. The people in the city were awakened and were in a state of panic.

Had a sleepless night.

Not only Wanzhou, but also Sanjiang, another city on Wanzhou Road, and more than a dozen counties, either the telephone office room failed, or important telephone lines were artificially cut and destroyed.

The entire Wanzhou Road, communications were paralyzed.

At the same time, Mengxi, Qingshan, and Fancheng counties in the southern part of Wanzhou Road and adjacent to Nanping all changed their colors almost overnight.

The streets were plastered with slogans welcoming General Lu and his campaign to punish the people, and people were even organized to take to the streets and line the streets to welcome the majestic Montenegrin soldiers who entered the city in the early morning.

Even the Second Tiger Regiment of the Wanzhou Army stationed in Fancheng was defeated at the first touch. It was named Huben, but in fact it was like a mouse after seeing a cat.

On the other hand, there were fierce conflicts between the county security brigade or the militia organized by the landlords and gentry, and the Montenegrin Army, but they usually ended very quickly.

In the early morning of the 23rd, the fiercest fighting took place on the outskirts of Sanjiang.

The Huben Regiment is Cheng Da Sui's most direct and elite armed force. Since Cheng Da Sui lost Mongolia, its elite troops have been stationed in Sanjiang.

There is also a garrison brigade composed of thousands of people who are desperately trying to catch people.

Coupled with the tall and solid bunkers are dense trench positions.

However, after the hot air balloon bombing, tanks and armored vehicles of the Montenegrin Army appeared. Although the trenches in the Sanjiang position were also anti-tank, they were of the past standard width. Unexpectedly, the tracks of the tanks of the Montenegrin Army could be easily crossed. There was no trace at all.

hindering effect.

The Huben 1st Regiment and the Sanjiang Garrison Brigade were unable to hold on for an hour. After suffering a large number of casualties, they were quickly defeated.

On the afternoon of the 24th, the mobile forces of the 1st and 2nd regiments of the Montenegrin Army, as well as the two mobile battalions directly under the division, suddenly appeared on Wanquan Mountain in the north of Wanzhou. Mortars bombarded the road below the mountain, cutting off the traffic chokepoint in the north, and

Under the siege of Cheng Dasui's Guards and Wanzhou Brigade, he held his position and refused to retreat.

In the evening, most of the Black Mountain Army appeared in the direction of Wanzhou South.

The families of the wealthy gentry in the city who had not had time to escape were crying and howling loudly.

Cheng Dasui, who had just resumed communication with Haixi and was still hoping that the Haixi army would come to rescue him, disguised himself and absconded.

However, rumors immediately spread in the city. Everyone knew that he had escaped. It seemed that someone around him had leaked it. How could the defenders in the city still have any fighting spirit?

Mr. Qiu, a wealthy gentry in Wanzhou City, and his son Qiu Zhengshuo, who was also the commander of the Wanzhou Brigade, led a group of squires and military officers and left the city with white flags to surrender.

At this point, the Wanzhou Campaign in just a few days was basically over.

However, in the countryside and mountainous areas, the battle to exterminate the remnants of Cheng Dasui continues. Some local tyrants lead militia groups to defend the area, while others who have fled into the mountains have returned to their true nature as bandits, attacking and plundering the countryside.

Before the Montenegrin Army launched an all-out offensive late at night on the 21st, Ren Zhonglin had already called the entire province and announced that he would be dismissed from all positions after being accused of many crimes.

On the 27th, on the restored train transportation line, the 2nd Brigade of the 3rd Longbei Front Army entered the Wanzhou area.

Sun Chonggu was appointed as the special commissioner of the brigade.

The commander of the Third Front Army was Sun Chonggu's father, Sun Gan, and the Second Brigade was the most powerful in the Third Front Army.

Brigadier Sun Pojun was Sun Chonggu's distant cousin. He was originally a very poor distant relative of the Sun family. However, Sun Pojun was brave and good at fighting, and he had achieved military success all the way. He had little to do with nepotism.

The military force that Ren Zhonglin finally sent into the complex place of Wanzhou was Sun's direct brigade. Naturally, he had his own considerations.

Of course, Sun Gan and other Sun faction leaders understood Governor Ren's considerations. They readily accepted the order, but of course they also had their own considerations.

As Sun Gan's most beloved successor, Sun Chonggu became the special commissioner of the most elite force in the sect, the Supreme Emperor, and entering Wanzhou to take charge of his own affairs should be one of Sun Gan's most important considerations.



On the radio, "General Lu's Message to the People of Wanzhou" was playing, which was recorded by Lu Ming at the broadcasting company in the morning.

Listening to one's own voice from a radio or other sound-producing equipment, according to past life research, many people feel a little bit ashamed, because the own voice they usually hear is formed through a combination of bone conduction and air conduction in the body, and other people's only air conduction

The sound you hear is different, and the recording heard through the sound playback device is completely air-conducted. What the sound sounds like in other people's ears is what you hear now.

However, Lu Ming was already used to hearing his original voice, so he didn't feel any discomfort at all.

This is the office of the Wanzhou Highway Administration Building.

Lu Ming has been very busy these days. For example, this morning, he and Jennifer just rode together to accept the cheers of the people and delivered a passionate speech.

Now, I have to meet with the newly appointed Dao Yin and other officials.

Later, I will transform into Commissioner Zhang to take over and transform the Wanzhou Road Security Bureau.

Commissioner Zhang was appointed as the patrol commissioner of the Wanzhou Police Brigade and the chairman of the Wanzhou Road Safety Committee. He is also the commissioner of the newly established Special Office for Suppression Work. Suppression work is mainly responsible for liquidating Cheng Dasui's gang members and suppressing bandits.

.

The director of the Nanping Secrecy Bureau was replaced by Tang Caini.

The director of the Nanping Procuratorate is Chen Qinghua.

There was a gentle knock on the office door, and Yuluan ushered in the elegant Yoshiko Asaba in a light black kimono.

"General Lu is really invincible! His heroic appearance on the front line is even more admirable." Yoshiko Asaba had a charming smile on her face, and her voice was like a warbler's cry, sweet and sweet, "I heard that you personally drove a tank to attack Cheng bandits.

Our position? Take the lead, you are so brave and a good man!"

Lu Ming looked at his watch.

In fact, the person in the tank is his own Qing'e stand-in.

It was Bizhu and Liuli's suggestion to lead the charge in person, saying that a thousand years ago, His Highness the Crown Prince would come to the battlefield in person.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Although times are different nowadays, His Highness still needs to have the experience of personally fighting the enemy on the front line in order to gain the trust of the soldiers.

I was thinking about it myself. If I don't go into battle personally, as my status rises, and I personally lead the charge in the future, it will make people feel ridiculous instead of inspiring the morale of the army and the people.

But I really wanted to do it myself, so I also learned all about tank soldiers unexpectedly.

But in the end it was Qing'e who went there. Although there was basically no danger, Liuli and the others were naturally worried about something unexpected happening.

Even Bizhu sent a telegram to warn about this matter.

At this time, hearing Yoshiko Asaba mention it, I felt somewhat ashamed.

Over there, Qian Yuyangzi saw Lu Ming looking at his watch and chuckled: "I know, the general is busy with official duties, so it is a great honor for my daughter to be able to give her 10 minutes."

Lu Ming smiled: "You can't say that, we are all old friends, but it is true that there will be an important meeting in fifteen minutes."

Asaba Yoshiko nodded lightly, "I understand, little girl." She paused and glanced at Lu Ming's expression, "I'm here for Ichiro Okawa and the others..."

Huh? Lu Ming slowly sat upright.

"You must also know that Ichiro Okawa and I didn't know each other at all before, and we have nothing to do with the Kawamoto family, but..." Asaba Yoshiko considered her words.

Lu Ming waved his hand and said with a smile: "I don't care what your reasons are. You have helped me a lot, and I will not be unkind. The gendarmerie in Nanping has not done any serious evil. It can be said that,

I haven’t had a chance yet…”

Asaha Yoshiko smiled bitterly, "Isn't that right? Before it got to that level, you were the one who took the blame."

Lu Ming pondered and said: "To say that most of them can be deported directly, and those with more serious crimes can be punished with whipping and then deported. This is also legal, but it depends on the local prosecutor's office.

"

Asaha Yoshiko breathed a sigh of relief, "Okay, thank you, General."

In fact, in the current situation, Wanzhou Road has been destroyed and has changed owners. It is obvious that Nanping Road Daoyin will be replaced soon. Gao Baoshan has no chance of recovery. It is just fish and meat on the chopping board. Nanping Road has not changed owners yet.

The main reason is that the Montenegrin Military and Political Group has not yet reached a consensus with the Ren Zhonglin Group.

Daoyin's appointment, garrison, etc.

Ren Zhonglin's cronies also had different opinions on the news coming from the provincial capital.

Some people think that Longbei has been oppressed by the other three provinces, and now that the world is in chaos, those hungry wolves who are eyeing it will no longer be able to restrain themselves.

Now it would be good to move closer to Jiangnan to seek political support and introduce the Black Mountain Legion as strong reinforcement.

Nanping and Wanzhou were originally independent states, so it is no big deal to give them to the Montenegro Department as gifts.

On the contrary, the Heishan Clan is more disciplined, and all appointments of officials, big and small, are reported to the provincial capital. Unlike in the past, Gao Baoshan and Cheng Dasui were basically local emperors.

Moreover, provincial capitals were allowed to send troops to garrison. Legally speaking, Nanping and Wanzhou did not break away from the jurisdiction of the province.

In this way, it is the best strategy to introduce the Montenegro Army to the Wanzhou front to fight against the ferocious Jinzhou Army in Haixi.

There are also those with different opinions, such as the Sun Gan faction, who believe that we should take the opportunity to completely regain the jurisdiction of Nanping Road.

As for Wanzhou, the status quo can be maintained, with both parties co-managing it and forming an alliance to fight Liu Bangchang in Haixi.

But no matter which opinion you take, Gao Baoshan's downfall is inevitable.

Then, it should be an inevitable outcome for the two Japanese gendarmerie teams introduced by Gao Baoshan to return home.

Ren Zhonglin didn't like the infiltration of Japanese people very much. Even in the provincial capital, the Japanese were only allowed to station a police brigade to protect the Japanese overseas Chinese community in the name of the police, and they were not allowed to leave the overseas Chinese community at will.

From the perspective of the Kansai Army, the main opponent of Liu Bangchang, who is currently fully supporting him, is Qi Huaide of the Northern Xinjiang Province.

Forcing Ren Zhonglin and Qi Huaide to form an alliance is not a wise move.

Therefore, most of the two military police units withdrew and retreated temporarily in order to take a further step in the future.

Therefore, deporting Okawa Ichiro and others from the country is really the best result.

"Yoshiko will remember the kindness of the general." Yoshiko Asaba bowed, "Yoshiko will not disturb you anymore!"

When she walked to the door in small steps, she stopped again, turned around and smiled: "General, I have a question. If you are presumptuous, you don't have to answer it."

Lu Ming looked at her and said, "I know everything about Madam's problem."

Yoshiko Asaba smiled slightly, "Really?" After a pause, her expression became serious, "Will you really have to allocate all the land to poor farmers when you go to a certain place in the future? Yoshiko feels that in the south of Wanzhou, your people

They have already entered to promote your views among the peasants, so your army is everywhere and the people are welcoming you."

Lu Ming smiled, indeed, in the southern area of ​​Wanzhou bordering eastern Mongolia, the Military Intelligence Division had already had work teams to promote the idea of ​​land for every resident.

In addition, with Mengdong County as a living example, public dissatisfaction was boiling under Cheng Dasui's rule, so the propaganda work went very smoothly. Various secret peasant associations had long been established in several counties in Wanzhou near Mengdong.

Looking at Asaha Yoshiko, Lu Ming smiled: "It's just a matter of adapting to local conditions. Miss Yoshiko, don't worry."

"I think so." Yoshiko Asaba bowed with a smile, "Yoshiko has resigned!"
