Chapter 19 Bloody Battle (7)
Chapter 19: Bloody Battle (Seven) ()
When he heard that the army that had been openly disobedient and still occupied the Beidaying and exchanged fierce fire with the Japanese, Chiang Kai-shek frowned involuntarily, and he was silent for a long time before he concentrated: "Hanqing! This is not possible, it will cause big problems. If we fight back, it is equivalent to giving the Japanese an excuse to expand the incident. You must try every means to withdraw this army to me, and you can also declare them as rebels. In extraordinary times, extraordinary means should be used."
Lao Jiang's words made Zhang Xueliang feel a little sad. Just the issuance of the "no resistance" order has already ruined the prestige of generals at all levels in the Northeast Frontier Defense Forces Commander-General Office of the Chenyang Northeast Frontier Defense Forces. He declared the soldiers who stayed in the Peking University camp to defend the territory as rebels? How would he face the heroes who died in the battle against the defending country? How would he face the verdict of the overwhelming public opinion? Sometimes Zhang Xueliang really couldn't understand what his ally brother was thinking in his head? How would he take such a big blame?
When Jiang heard that Zhang Xueliang was unwilling to speak, he knew that he had to add a fire. He would never be distracted at the critical moment of suppressing the Communist Party.
Chiang Kai-shek thought for a moment and continued: "Hanqing! The Japanese are not a single piece, but our inside is a mess. China's situation is very special. The warlords have been separating for many years. The slogan of our Northern Expedition was to defeat the warlords. As a result, the small warlords annexed each other into large warlords. They privately recruited soldiers and taxes, and they violated the Central National Government, deceived the superiors and concealed the subordinates, and even some people plundered the local people to live in poverty. They only destroyed the country without any construction. This is why I advocated that the country must first settle the country with foreign aggression. Eliminated the red disasters and unified the military and political power of the whole country, work hard to govern, and revived China is not just a word you shout! I shout! The slogan everyone shouted, but an action! The country has been weak for a long time, and you and I are in a high position. Many times, even if we are unwilling, we have to endure humiliation for the country."
When Zhang Xueliang heard that Chiang Kai-shek had already said this, he was not at ease and had to respond: "Please rest assured Chairman Jiang, the military and civilians in the northeast of my country should be consistent with the central government."
After Jiang Jiang comforted Zhang Xueliang a few words, he repeatedly instructed him to "treat accordingly"!
After Zhang Xueliang put down the phone, he stood in front of the map and looked at Chen Yang silently. Lao Jiang's "corresponding treatment" made it difficult for him to grasp the key points. When he thought of Zhang Xuewu who was openly disobeying, Zhang Xueliang was furious. Zhang Xuecheng was bold enough. He was robbed by the soldiers and didn't kill him, just caring about family affection. When Lao Shuai was there, he valued family affection the most. He didn't want others to say that he didn't recognize his relatives!
Zhang Xueliang looked through the messy telegrams on the table. It was basically reported by Rong Zhen, Wang Yizhe, Huang Xiansheng and others, as well as reports from the General Administration, Bianye, Bank of China, Arsenal, etc. from the three eastern provinces sent by Deputy Chief Tan. Zhang Xueliang was a little confused. What exactly did Zhang Xuewu want to do?
However, there is one thing that Zhang Xueliang was very pleased, that is, Zhang Xuewu's ability is extraordinary! Just under the nose of the commander-in-chief of the Northeast Frontier Defense Force, with the presence of brigade commander Wang Yizhe, regiment commander Wang Tiehan and other military chiefs at all levels, they incited the first battalion troops to control the commander-in-chief office as the chief of staff of a group of regiments, cut off all external contacts, and then arranged two regiments to transport supplies under the nose of the Japanese, and then led their troops to block the enemy's invasion in Beidaying. All of the arrangements were linked one by one, and it seemed that they were prepared for a long time, which was really amazing.
However, what Zhang Xueliang was most annoyed was that Zhang Xuewu's relocation of the Arsenal in the Three East Provinces was an unprecedented destruction. In other words, the Japanese only destroyed Beidaying, while Zhang Xuewu almost destroyed most of the Chenyang City.
Zhang Xueliang is already having a headache about how to deal with this army that violates military orders. Now the whole country is staring at the largest conflict between the Chinese and Japanese armies in Beidaying in recent years. In the face of the people and public opinion across the country, explaining the reasons for the failure to resist?
Zhang Xueliang knew that there was a large number of people in the National Government ready to watch his excitement. He was even ready to be hurt by someone. The very tired Zhang Xueliang sat in the Nan Study room weakly and rubbed his swelling temples with his hands! For Zhang Xueliang, the only way to send people to Chenyang as soon as possible to withdraw Zhang Xuewu's troops, otherwise the longer the time will be, the harder it will be to end.
At the same time, Lao Jiang, who was standing in front of the window and thinking quietly, received a file related to the incident compiled by the Fuxing Society agent headquarters. Zhang Xuewu, a name that made Lao Jiang hate him before, entered Lao Jiang's sight. For Zhang Xueliang, who had such an extraordinary ability and rebellious clan brother, Lao Jiang used his different thinking logic to pervert for a moment, and said to Huang Feiwen, deputy director of the Secretariat who sent the file, "Tell Guofu, Lifu, let them send people to go and use more thoughts. I want to know everything about Zhang Xuewu."
At this moment, Zhang Xuewu, who was looking at the last ray of sunset, finally made a difficult decision, that is, to keep the green mountains without worrying about burning firewood. Before that, Zhang Xuewu had been hoping that Zhang Xueliang could make decisions and judgments different from known history. When the night fell again to the northeast, all his hopes seemed to be futile.
If the Northeast Army could thrust the sword, what could the Japanese Kwantung Army, which had only more than 10,000 people, do? It could only be crushed to pieces, and even occupy important towns along the Manchurian Railway? It was simply the wishful thinking of the Japanese.
Zhang Xuewu also thought of defending the Beidaying alone until the last shot and bullet, resisting the Japanese invasion to the death, setting an example for the whole country with blood and awakening the nation's sense of resistance. However, now it seems that this kind of sacrifice is almost meaningless. Most Chinese people in this era are illiterate and semi-illiterate. Patriotism is a very distant thing for Chinese people who have experienced feudal, semi-feudal and semi-colonial areas.
This is the numbness that the blood of one person, several people, or even tens of thousands of people is difficult to awaken. Faced with the heavy wheels of history, Zhang Xuewu felt his personal insignificance and powerlessness for the first time.
In order to transfer Chenyang's supplies, he did not hesitate to lead his troops to fight the invading Japanese army to the death in Beidaying. However, the death in Beidaying did not let the Japanese, who were crazily and dizzy, retreat. Instead, the Japanese Kwantung Army took a desperate bet. However, the Peking and Nanjing still hoped that the intervention and mediation of the League of Nations in history were generally based on the intervention of the League of Nations.
The external contact between Beidaying was cut off by the Japanese army. Three groups of yellow signal flares rose in the direction of the arsenal of the three eastern provinces. They were the signal of a general retreat. Looking at the slowly falling signal flares, Zhang Xuewu's heart suddenly skipped a beat.
"Retreat!" Zhang Xuewu faced Xu Guohui, Wang Chuang, and Li Mingtang, who were covered in blood, and made a difficult decision. Xu Guohui looked at Zhang Xuewu's firm face and sighed helplessly: "Is the Chief of Staff really hopeless?"
Zhang Xuewu looked at Xu Guohui and others in surprise, shook his head and said, "There will be reinforcements!" In fact, Zhang Xuewu thought he had concealed it well, but in fact the stupidest person was him, Xu Guohui, Wang Chuang, Li Mingtang and others had long guessed his intentions!
Zhang Xuewu smiled bitterly and said, "Since you all knew the consequences at that time, why did you still participate?"
Xu Guohui smiled and looked at Wang Chuang and said, "A man is a real man, wealth and honor are in danger! He is flirting with food and salary. If the enemy comes and runs away without giving up a single fart, I am afraid I can't forgive myself!"
