Chapter 746(1/2)
"Committee, welcome to come to the First War Zone again to guide the work!" Cheng Qian, commander of the First War Zone, brought a few followers, and went up to salute the military salute.
"Brother Songyun, you have been waiting for a long time. The commander of the war zone has rejected many official duties and came to pick me up. This shows that I, Jiang, is still relatively important in your heart. I am flattered." Chiang Kai-shek smiled, looking very natural.
But Cheng Qian knew that Chairman Jiang was holding back his unhappiness at this time.
The cunning of big men is very deep, more or less, and there are many deep things, especially those like Chairman Jiang, who are naturally deeper.
If you look at the appearance, you can't see anything, but if you see what happened recently, especially the loss of Lanfeng, the Chairman's mood will be better, and especially the ordering of the execution of Long Muhan, how angry is it to shoot the direct general?
You must know that the Huangpu direct descendant is in Chiang Kai-shek's heart, and it is the pillar of the Central Army!
How could the pillars move so easily?
Therefore, Cheng Qian was able to perceive Chiang Kai-shek's state at this time very keenly.
"I'm so sorry. The teacher is the leader of our Republic of China and the leader of our Chinese nation to fight against the Japanese invaders in an all-round way. I, Cheng Songyun, have no other skills. If I say respecting the leader, it's still a duty." Cheng Qian smiled and said.
"Okay, you, my brothers, and other things, let's wait in the car before talking about it! Let's go to your First War Zone Commander's Office first! The place is empty and there is another plane again. I'm afraid you will be attacked by Japanese planes. Let's talk about it in detail when you and me!" Chiang Kai-shek smiled and set the tone. He also knew that if he continued to greet him at this time, it would be a mistake.
"Please! Commissioner!" Cheng Qian stretched out his right hand and made a "please" gesture.
After the two got in the car, they left Zhengzhou Airport directly and headed to Zhengzhou's First War Zone Commander-in-Chief's headquarters.
...
Zhengzhou City is still prosperous, but because of Chairman Jiang's arrival, many military police and sentinels were added along the way. Even the guards of the commander-in-chief of the theater commander-in-chief were dispatched.
Seven military off-road jeeps driving the road all the way, filled with guards with guns and live ammunition. Well, they were all guards equipped with DP38 charges!
Chiang Kai-shek's classic car followed behind - but there were as many as seven such classic cars. I didn't know which one was Cheng Qian and Chiang Kai-shek's car.
The guards stood almost every five meters on both sides of the road, and their expressions were very serious, because they knew that a great commander would arrive today, and it was unknown what level of commander he was.
"salute!!!"
When the front car of the convoy passed by, the officers standing beside him shouted, and the troops saluted in unison.
From this glance, you can tell that these are the elites in the first war zone!
After lifting the curtains on the car window, Chiang Kai-shek couldn't help but nodded slightly: He was very satisfied with the mental outlook of these officers and soldiers!
"Brother Songyun, your soldiers are very good. They are all elites from the Republic of China. I believe that when they are pulled on the battlefield, they will definitely be able to fight one side." Chiang Kai-shek smiled.
"Chairman is a tragic defeat to me, Cheng. These soldiers are not my soldiers. These soldiers are the soldiers of the Chairman, and they are the soldiers of our Republic of China." Cheng Qian smiled and said.
"Brother Song Yun is still so humble..." Chiang Kai-shek pointed at Cheng Qian and smiled helplessly.
Being able to reach such a high position like Cheng Qian is not only capable of himself, but also more of a smooth and a pair of eyes that see through the world.
Not long after, Chiang Kai-shek's convoy drove into the more harshly garrisoned First War Zone Commander-in-Chief's headquarters.
It is related to the safety of the leader, and it is absolutely necessary to ensure safety first.
...
After Chiang Kai-shek arrived at the commander-in-chief of the First War Zone, he had a brief rest and directly held a meeting of senior officers and staff in the First War Zone.
Standing in front, Chiang Kai-shek looked at the people in front of him very seriously, and only saw that the people in front of him were of the lowest rank, and the one with a higher rank was a first-level general.
The most normal one is the second-level general.
In other words, this is already a veritable senior officer meeting.
"Everyone, the situation is urgent now. The Japanese army's troops, relying on their strong troops and superior reinforcements, have begun to attack the periphery of Kaifeng. I believe everyone here knows this news, right?" Chiang Kai-shek asked knowingly.
The atmosphere in the venue was very solemn, and no general dared to speak out, after all, the chairman had something to say next.
"Now hundreds of thousands of Japanese troops are directing towards Kaifeng, with the goal of taking down Zhengzhou, opening up Pinghan Road, and then fighting to Wuhan. The little Japanese is selfless and undying. As soldiers, we also feel unable to sleep or eat. Do you have any opinions on how to defend Zhengzhou and how to defend Pinghan Road?" Chiang Kai-shek asked.
But the scene was still silent, and no one dared to speak out. It has been fighting to this level. Can anyone still have a way? In the face of absolute strength, all conspiracies are paper tigers!
After a long time, it was obviously still silent. Chiang Kai-shek spoke: "Okay! Since you don't say anything, let me tell you over there! The only way to temporarily block the Japanese army's advance is probably to dig the Yellow River embankment."
After hearing this, everyone began to raise their heads, and they knew that the real content was coming.
"In order to implement this plan smoothly, I decided that the Shang Zhen troops stationed in the Yellow River will carry out this task. The location will be set in Zhaokou, where the embankment is thinner in Zhongmu County!" Chiang Kai-shek looked at everyone and said, hoping that these senior officers could make some useful suggestions.
Unfortunately, what disappointed Chiang Kai-shek was that it was still silent.
"Then let's set it at Zhaokou!" Chiang Kai-shek said, while the staff next to him were quickly picking up the top secret content of a secret meeting.
Seeing that no one had any opinions or objections, Chiang Kai-shek made a decision: "Order the Shang Zhen army to send a division troops to Zhaokou, Zhongmu County to prepare for the dam breaking!"
"Yes! Commitment!" One of the guards in Zhengzhou who followed Chiang Kai-shek over said.
...
Soon, a command was sent to Shang Zhen’s 20th Army General Command and received a top-secret order.
How secret is this order? Except for the sender responsible for the secret documents, only Shang Zhen has the authority to read it.
After receiving this order, Shang Zhen immediately sent an army to Zhaokou.
This unit is Shang Zhen’s confidant unit—the new Eighth Division of the National Revolutionary Army!
After receiving the order, the newly formed Eighth Division immediately began to go to Zhaokou.
At the same time, Zhang Tianhai also began to lead the first regiment directly under the Third War Zone after the temporary rest to Zhengzhou.
Compared with the anxiousness when he went from Lanfeng to Qi County, Zhang Tianhai was obviously much calmer this time.
Riding on the horse, Zhang Tianhai looked at the endless North China Plain and suddenly felt a sense of emotion: The next time I go here, maybe it will be a country of she? Or maybe there will be no chance to come here again!
But no matter what, he could no longer control this battle, and the large Japanese troops had arrived here - the Japanese army's established strategic goal was to take Kaifeng, Zhengzhou, and then Wuhan.
Such established combat goals will naturally not be changed easily, and he is really powerless.
"Let's go! Stay away from here!" Thinking of this, Zhang Tianhai sighed. Fortunately, he sent someone to take over Wei He's parents, otherwise he would have no face to face his good brother who had already died on the battlefield in Nanjing!
The man promises that he should be a daughter!
Zhang Tianhai held his horse and left without looking back.
...
Half a day later, the newly formed Eighth Division of the 20th Army of Shang Zhen finally arrived at Zhaokou.
However, when the newly formed Eighth Division arrived at Zhaokou, what confused the main officers of the newly formed Eighth Division were that there was too much quicksand in Zhaokou. Even though they had organized troops to dig a lot, they still couldn't dig.
In their words, when will it be possible to dig through this method?
However, the newly formed Eighth Division did not leave when they saw difficulties, they dug for a whole day.
During this excavation, the front-line troops did not happen. The national troops outside Kaifeng were fighting to death with the large Japanese troops!
Therefore, the pressure on the newly formed Eighth Division is also not very large.
After the newly compiled telegram report from the commander of the 8th Division, the commander-in-chief of the First War Zone immediately held emergency consultations.
When Chiang Kai-shek knew that Zhao's mouth was hopeless to be opened, he instructed him to change the location and break the dam again.
After urgent consultation, it was decided to initially select the location of the New Eighth Division stationed near the Yellow River near Huayuankou, west of Zhaokou.
After receiving Chiang Kai-shek's latest order, the commander of the newly formed 8th Division immediately led his troops to Huayuankou to start preparations.
When the newly formed Eighth Division arrived at Huayuankou, it was also when Zhang Tianhai led his troops to Zhengzhou.
In Zhengzhou, Zhang Tianhai did not see Chiang Kai-shek like the last time. He received an order: "After the troops arrived in Zhengzhou, they immediately boarded the train and headed south to Wuhan."
After receiving this order, Zhang Tianhai's heart sank slightly, but he still led his troops to continue on the train.
The scene outside the train was rushing backwards like a rushing chaise, sitting in the chief's exclusive seat. Zhang Tianhai leaned quietly against the window without saying a word. Everyone knew that he was in a bad mood, so he didn't dare to speak out.
But only he himself knew that the reason for his bad mood was that the embankment of the Yellow River Gardenkou was about to be blown up. No matter how hard he tried, he could never change history. He was always a small leader, even if his regiment was a strengthening regiment.
The wars outside Kaifeng were continuous. Second Lieutenant General Doihara, who had eliminated the decline that had been suppressed a few days ago, led the front-line troops to rush forward in order to avenge a revenge and to relieve the shame of the past.
During this process, Chiang Kai-shek was worried that his subordinates would be negative in their execution, so he repeatedly urged his subordinates to dig the dike without "women's kindness".
In the early morning of June 9, 1938, after two days and two nights of continuous excavation, the entrance of the garden was finally dug up while Zhongmu, 30 kilometers away from Zhengzhou, was almost lost.
