The news that Zhang Kuang, Ma Lian and dozens of people were shot in front of the police station spread quickly. Gossip is the natural surname of people at any time. This kind of surname does not distinguish between men and women and does not distinguish between regions.
The morning of May 5, 1935, the twenty-fourth year of the Republic of China
The headquarters of the 38th Division in Zhangjiakou is a bit special today. Division Commander Zhang Zizhong, Commander of the 112th Brigade Huang Weigang, Commander of the 113th Brigade Tong Zeguang, and officers above the regiment are waiting for someone at the door.
After a while, a group of people came from a distance, and soon they approached the division headquarters. Zhang Zizhong hurriedly led everyone to greet them. The leader was slightly fatter and had a beard that was popular at the time. After getting off his horse, he
He smiled and said: "Brother Xin Chen, we are a group of uninvited guests. You won't welcome us, right?"
Zhang Zizhong hurriedly stood at attention and saluted. After the salute, he also smiled: "Military seat, your Majesty is here. The Thirty-eighth Division is shining brightly. How can there be no unwelcome gift? Military seat, please come in." It turned out to be the 29th Route.
Army Commander Song Zheyuan arrived with a group of major generals from the 29th Army.
"Hey," Song Zheyuan said angrily after returning the gift, "Xin Chen, you are a very polite person. Do you and I still have to be so polite between brothers?" He turned around and asked the people behind him, "Do you think so?"
Everyone laughed and echoed: "That's right, Brother Xin Chen is still so polite. I'll punish you with three cups of wine in a while." Zhang Zizhong smiled and said nothing. It's okay to just listen to such words, no one will take it seriously.
Extending his hand to make a gesture of invitation, Song Zheyuan took the lead and walked into the division headquarters. Huang Weigang, commander of the 112th Brigade, and Tong Zeguang, commander of the 113th Brigade, who were behind, looked at each other and smiled bitterly, fearing that today is the
A bunch of bad guests are here.
A group of people walked into the conference room of the division headquarters. Song Zheyuan walked to the front seat and sat down first. He unbuttoned the style button, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said with a smile: "Brother Xinchen, I'm not afraid to tell you, we are here today."
Autumn wind blower, what can you, a landowner, do to entertain us?"
Feng Zhi'an, commander of the 37th Division, also spoke up: "Brother Xin Chen, I heard that you have been living a very happy life recently."
Zhang Zizhong laughed loudly: "Don't worry, everyone, although our Thirty-eighth Division is poor, we still have wine to entertain you. I will treat you to a good Shaodaozi later."
Liu Ruming, the temporary commander of the Second Division who was on the side, saw Zhang Zizhong looking around and talking about him, and also intervened: "Brother Xin Chen, when I came in just now, I found that the sentry at the door has a very good gun."
"Weapons are the second life of a soldier. Firearms must be well maintained."
Seeing Zhang Zizhong still pretending to be dumbfounded, Liu Ruming and Feng Zhian were dumbfounded. They couldn't say, buddy, we are here just for your new batch of guns today.
Song Zheyuan saw Liu Ruming and Feng Zhian staring at each other, and winked at Chief of Staff Zhang Weifan. Zhang Weifan had no choice but to say: "Xin Chen, I heard that you got a batch of new guns made in Germany some time ago."
Seeing Zhang Weifan's question, Zhang Zizhong, who knew he couldn't hide, could only say: "Yes". He paused and then said: "It's just too few. Huang Weigang and Tong Zeguang are almost fighting over these guns."
Song Zheyuan smiled and said: "Xin Chen, I heard that this is a thousand guns."
This is called the butt deciding the head. Liu Ruming and Feng Zhi'an can ask Zhang Zizhong outright, but Song Zheyuan, as the leader of the army, cannot be too biased and can only make a subtle point. Zhang Zizhong has the ability to get weapons.
That's someone else's business, but as your boss, it's hard for you to interfere.
However, Zhang Zizhong is a kind person after all. Seeing that Song Zheyuan had lost his temper and came to his place to fight against the autumn wind, he couldn't bear it. After pondering for a while, he said: "Military seat, these guns were given by one of my sworn brothers. I have already
I sent 700 guns to the subordinates. I originally planned to set up a special agent battalion with the remaining 300 guns, but today the military commander and all my dear friends are here, and I can't bear to offend the military commander.
, I will hand over these three hundred guns to the military commander, and let the military commander handle them."
"Okay" Song Zheyuan slapped his thigh, "Xin Chen is still upright, let me just say, why is Brother Xin Chen the kind of person who doesn't know the general situation? Look...look...you must have said it to me"..."
Hahahahaha" everyone also laughed.
After a while, the orderly came to report that the banquet was ready. Everyone came to the restaurant and sat down. Liu Ruming and Feng Zhian first raised their glasses to Zhang Zizhong, thanking Zhang Zizhong for his generosity. Zhang Zizhong did not dare to say anything, saying that he was his sworn brother.
I dare not take credit for my own achievements.
After three rounds of wine and five delicious dishes, Song Zheyuan spoke: "Xin Chen, it's not easy for you to pick up a sworn brother. A few days ago, you shot the police chief on the spot in front of the police station in Duolun. You were very brave.
"
Zhang Zizhong was unhappy when he heard this: "Commander, that Zhang Kuang colluded with the horse bandits in an attempt to attack the militia station and rob the ordnance. He deserved his death." On the day Zhang Kuang was shot, Su Tong sent someone to inform Zhang Zizhong and told Ma Mian.
The confession was submitted and all the witnesses and physical evidence were present. Now Zhang Zizhong naturally wanted to support his little brother.
"Hahaha" Song Zheyuan laughed: "Zhang Xingchen, Zhang Xingchen, your outright temper has not changed. Did I say I would punish your little brother?"
"That is, Zhang Kuang is arrogant and domineering, colludes with bandits, and attempts to rob local ordnance and supplies. All of these are capital crimes." Liu Ruming said this, and all the generals beside him nodded. As the saying goes, if someone is short-handed, he will take it.
The advantage of others is that they naturally do things for them, not to mention that they are just talking.
At this time, Su Tong did not know that someone was discussing him hundreds of miles away. At this moment, he was having a heart-to-heart talk with Duolun County Magistrate Xi Hanqian. When Xi Hanqian was forcibly taken to Dabeigou by Huang Hao, he thought
He was about to die, and when he felt uneasy, Su Tong arrived in time to do Xi Hangan's ideological work. Su Tong knew that Xi Hangan was very capable and had a good reputation in Duolun, so he was a worthy candidate. So he faced Xi Hangan.
Gan talked about everything from the international situation, to the imminent threat of Japan, to the development of Toronto's economy, and he went on for a long time. He only meant one thing, buddy, I want to accept you as my younger brother, so you just have to do it. But until Su Tong said
When his mouth was dry, Xi Hanqian was still looking at himself blankly.
Who is Xi Hanqian? The county magistrate. In later generations, he will be a division-level cadre. The official who has been an official since ancient times is not a human being. He knew what Su Tiaoxiao meant early on. He was a person without backing or backing, so
Only then was he sent to Duolun, which was only a thin line away from the Japanese-occupied area, to be the unlucky county magistrate who was precarious. Su Tong had strength and a backer. Since he was handed an olive branch, he had already wanted to join Su Tong in his heart.
I mean, I was just angry that the way I came here was not comfortable, and I wanted to show off to Su Tong, so I froze there.
Su Tong talked for a long time and saw that Xi Hanqian was still stunned. He couldn't help but said angrily: "County Magistrate Xi, what are you thinking about?"
Xi Hanqian said helplessly: "You have kidnapped me, what else can I do? Tell me what you want me to do."
Su Tong breathed a long sigh of relief, "Brother, it's easy for me. Others who traveled through time always carried their bastard spirit with them, and my little brother would follow them wherever they went. I have a small county magistrate here and I'm almost done talking about it. I It's easy. I've been here for a few months and I only have two or three kittens and puppies here. I got them through deception.
