The vanguard of the Red Army arrived and surrounded the airport.
There were densely packed yellow dots. There were probably hundreds of them. I had never seen so many yellow dots before.
They are all revolutionary firebrands who have gone through hundreds of battles and survived!
Before expansion, more than half of a company of Red Army soldiers were yellow dots.
These yellow dots are the guarantee of combat effectiveness.
Later, the Eighth Route Army expanded, and the number of yellow points per company dropped to about 20. This led to a general decline in combat effectiveness.
Some local guerrillas or work teams often only have a few yellow spots and their combat effectiveness is even worse.
Facts have proved that without a strict party organization and a sufficient number of party members, even with the title of Eighth Route Army, combat effectiveness cannot be maintained.
The Jin-Sui Army did not appear.
They sit on the wall and watch the tiger fight.
Of course, it is impossible for the Red Army troops to enter Taiyuan City and can only be stationed at the airport.
A tense situation?
Doesn't exist.
The Red Army was not aggressive.
Obviously, they knew very well that it was impossible to use force at this time.
It only hurts those close to you and makes enemies happy.
It is Zhang Yong's fault that Zhang Yong acts indiscriminately. The Red Army will not act indiscriminately.
Be polite first and then fight.
Negotiators showed up.
Zhang Yong didn't recognize them all. He had never seen them before.
"please."
"please."
Zhang Yong had a straight face.
Welcome the other party to the makeshift conference room.
Both parties sat down separately.
Face to face.
Briefly introduce yourself.
The chief representative’s surname is Dong, and he is simply called Mr. Dong.
"Mr. Dong, you speak first."
"Commissioner Zhang, what exactly was our representative Zhan Zhaogang's fault..."
"He was not at fault."
"Then why did you arrest him?"
"He himself has no fault. But he is a Red Party member, which is the biggest fault."
"Excuse me, is this your personal meaning, or..."
"Mr. Dong, don't ask so many questions. Our Fruit Party and your Red Party are enemies now, in the future, and in the future. Unless one party drives the other party out of the mainland."
"So, Commissioner Zhang is destroying the cooperation between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party and the idea of uniting the Communist Party to resist Japan?"
"Yes."
Zhang Yong directly admitted it.
Mr. Dong:……
Others:…
No. This guy admitted it directly?
I thought this guy would deny it! Unexpectedly, he admitted it directly.
"That……"
"I caught him on purpose. Because you are weak, I bullied you on purpose. Do you understand?"
"you!"
Suddenly several yellow dots stood up.
angry.
That's too much!
Zhang Yong, why don’t you speak so arrogantly?
Zhang Yong tilted his head.
Haha. Angry? No need.
I am reminding you not to have any illusions. Otherwise...
If something like that happens again in the future, take action directly. The consequences will be more serious. The main force of the New Fourth Army will be almost wiped out.
"I guess Commissioner Zhang has also read the newspapers these days."
"I saw it. They were all scolding me."
"Commissioner Zhang's behavior is retrograde and infuriated by both humans and gods..."
"But I'm still alive and well."
"We demand that you release him immediately and apologize."
"It's impossible to let go. It's impossible to apologize. But you can make amends."
"What?"
"I can apologize. But I will never apologize and I will never let him go."
"you!"
Mr. Dong was very angry.
But vaguely, something seemed wrong.
What does it mean to make amends?
What kind of apology?
"Three thousand rifles, 1.5 million rounds of ammunition."
"What?"
"Would you like it?"
"Say it again."
"Three thousand rifles. One and a half million rounds of ammunition. Apology."
"Wait a minute..."
Mr. Dong felt something was wrong.
What is this guy talking about?
One and a half million rounds of ammunition? Three thousand rifles?
Is there such a good thing?
Something's wrong...
Something's wrong...
"Someone is coming!"
"arrive!"
"Move all the weapons and ammunition outside, whether they want it or not!"
"yes."
Jiao Rulin led people to take action.
Soon, boxes of weapons and boxes of ammunition were all moved out.
All have been prepared long ago.
In fact, it's not just what Zhang Yong mentioned. There are also light machine guns and mortars.
There are even thousands of rounds of 75mm mountain artillery shells.
However, none of this can be said out loud. Otherwise, the Jin-Sui Army will be upset. Chiang Kai-shek's side will definitely be furious as well.
Are you Zhang Yong crazy? Giving so many weapons and ammunition to the Red Party?
"you……"
"I said it. Do you like it or not? Anyway, I will never let him go, and I will never apologize."
"you……"
Mr. Dong suppressed his anger.
Hurry out and contact the troops outside the airport. Collect weapons and ammunition first.
The Red Army at this moment is indeed very weak. It needs a lot of weapons and ammunition to replenish. Especially ammunition. A gun really only has a few bullets. It is very scarce.
There are even fewer artillery shells. The whole army may not be able to get 300 rounds together. They are just so weak.
No matter what Zhang Yong's intentions are, these weapons and ammunition are now in the hands of his own people.
And then found out...
Wrong quantity...
It seems like he said a lot more than Zhang Yong?
Return to the negotiating table.
"Commissioner Zhang, we have counted..."
"It's just that much anyway. If you have more, you won't refund it, and if you have less, you won't make up for it. Don't leave any records."
"Why?"
"Do you want the whole world to know that I, Zhang Yong, apologize to you? Then I have fallen out!"
"you……"
Mr. Dong feels that his brain is not enough.
For a moment, I really couldn’t figure out what Zhang Yong was thinking.
We've given you all the weapons and ammunition, so what's the point of letting him go? What on earth is this guy trying to do by holding Zhan Zhaogang hostage?
"If you get weapons and ammunition, get out of here!"
"What?"
"I don't like you. Let's bring in another group of people. By the way, let's change the team!"
"ah……"
Mr. Dong suddenly understood something.
So he said goodbye immediately, went back to report, and then left with the team.
Soon, the second batch of Red Army troops arrived.
The airport was also surrounded and negotiators were sent out.
The chief representative this time is named Chen.
"It's impossible to let him go! It's impossible to apologize!" Zhang Yong insisted, "I can apologize!"
Without waiting for the other party to speak, Zhang Yong continued, "There is no gun, only 1.5 million bullets! Do you want it?"
Representative Chen was silent for a moment, then nodded, turned and left.
Outside the airport, boxes of ammunition were moved out again. Then they were quickly moved away by the Red Army team.
The main focus is a smooth flow, quick movements, and seamless connections.
There is really only ammunition left.
All weapons were given out in the first batch.
Long nights and many dreams.
The Jinsui Army is very well-informed.
If you act like this at the airport, they will definitely know.
It is expected that troops will be launched to prosecute him soon.
Sure enough, someone hurried over soon, "Reporting Specialist, I have a call for you."
"Whose phone number?" Zhang Yong was indifferent.
"He said his name was Yang Aiyuan."
"oh."
Zhang Yong nodded. No, the Jinsui Army reacted immediately.
If you get into a fight with the Red Party troops, the Jinsui Army will definitely be watching the excitement. I wish you both would suffer losses and die together.
However, you, Zhang Yong, actually gave weapons and ammunition to the Red Party troops, and the Jinsui Army could not sit still.
Come and answer the phone.
Pick up the phone.
"Hello……"
"Commissioner Zhang, what did you do at the airport?"
"I haven't done anything! I've eaten and rubbed my belly. I feel warm and lustful. By the way, Brother Yang, when are you going to send some beautiful girls over?"
"Who is your big brother?"
"Hey, Yang Aiyuan, I call you big brother to give you face. I am the inspector of the Military and Political Commission, and my rank is higher than yours. Don't be ignorant..."
"Asshole!"
Yang Aiyuan was furious.
This bastard!
How dare you say that! You sycophant! You are relying on your own interests...
"Bah! Yang Aiyuan!" Suddenly I heard Zhang Yong roaring on the phone, "I'm giving you face, don't be shameless! I tell you! When I was killing the Japanese invaders in Peking, you were still hiding in Taiyuan to nurse!"
I killed thousands of Japanese invaders! Killed a heavy artillery regiment of the Japanese invaders! Killed their regiment leader! I also captured four Japanese invaders tanks! They were put on display in front of the Hall of Supreme Harmony in the Forbidden City! You fucking company
I haven’t even seen the faces of the Japanese invaders yet!”
Yang Aiyuan:......
Suddenly stunned.
My mind went blank.
Fortunately, Mr. Chen and others were nearby.
Hearing Zhang Yong's roar, they looked at each other and then fell silent.
like……
The person in front of me...
He is indeed no ordinary Lord!
Killing the Japanese invaders is really simple and crude.
Then I heard Zhang Yong roaring, "You go ahead and kill thousands of Japanese invaders and show me!"
"If you kill more Japanese invaders than me, from now on you talk about the East and I won't talk about the West! You talk about the South and I won't talk about the North! But if you don't kill as many Japanese invaders as me, just keep your tail between your legs.
Be a human being! Don't be arrogant in front of me!"
"Are your Jinsui Army awesome? Wait! The Japanese invaders will come in from the Pingsui Railway soon. They will fight all the way down Zhangjiakou, Datong, and Xinzhou until they reach Taiyuan. Some Japanese invaders will also occupy Shimen.
, then attack Niangziguan, and attack Taiyuan together along the Zhengtai Railway!"
"The total strength of the Japanese invaders is only two divisions, less than 100,000 people. Your Shanxi-Sui Army is said to have 200,000 to 300,000 people. Including the remnants of the defeated Northwest Army, there are at least 300,000 people. They are also holding on to the city.
If you can hold on, the Jinsui Army still has some face. If the Jinsui Army can't hold on, bah, it's not me, Zhang Yong, who despises you! You are just a bunch of trash! Don't show off in front of me from now on!"
"Pooh!"
Snap!
Zhang Yong hung up the phone.
Seeing Mr. Chen and others, he roared angrily.
"Go quickly!"
"Bring in another group of people!"
“Don’t wait until the time comes!”
Mr. Chen:……
This guy.
It seems like he really went crazy?
How did Yang Aiyuan on the other end of the phone stimulate him?
Change a group of people?
OK. Replace immediately. Replace immediately.
So he quickly evacuated.
Subsequently, the third batch of Red Army troops arrived.
Even the negotiators have saved money. Anyway, they will never apologize and never let people go.
But an apology is okay.
Apologies are ammunition.
Box after box. Empty everything in your house.
It is estimated that this is his first and last direct contact with the Red Party.
In the future, I may spend most of my time on the southern battlefield. If I want to cooperate with the Eighth Route Army on a large scale, I'm afraid there will be no chance!
"Move! Move everyone!"
"Bring in another group of people!"
"Change……"
Clear all inventory.
No more. Not even a bullet.
Let him go.
Of course, it's secret.
late at night.
field.
Zhan Zhaogang and others were escorted into the grass.
Everyone else was on guard outside. Only Zhang Yong pushed them forward.
He declared to the outside world that he would kill him with his own hands.
Kill and silence.
The corpse wilderness.
Entering the messy grass with no one around, cut the ropes around them.
"Director Zhan, remember what I said."
"Understood. Stay anonymous. Don't appear in public."
"Thanks for your hard work."
"Thank you. The organization will remember you."
"We'll talk about what happens next. But right now, we are still enemies. Your public opinion will continue to target me."
"OK."
"The more you target me, the more prosperous my official career will be."
"But you have to be careful. Only the highest level knows this secret. The comrades below, including Mr. Dong and Mr. Chen who came before, don't know the truth and may target you..."
"I have a way to deal with it."
"In short, be careful. We will meet again when we win."
"good!"
Zhang Yong smiled and nodded.
Of course, we will meet again when we win.
Raise the shell gun.
Bang!
Bang!
Fire a gun into the sky.
Shoot out all the bullets.
Amidst the gunfire, Zhan Zhaogang and others quickly disappeared into the darkness.
…
Secret message.
Sent to the attendant's room.
"The Red Party has been secretly executed. Zhang Yong."
…
Secret message.
The attendant's room replied.
"I am very pleased to be appointed. I am specially awarded the 100th Army number."
…
Zhang Yong:???
No. You old Jiang En will take revenge!
You can’t reward people in this way! You can be promoted to my official position...
Oh, this official position has reached its end. It is already very high. There are only nine in the country. I am the ninth.
By the way, Yan Laoxi doesn't even have such a title.
Although the other party is a first-level general, he does not have the title of inspector.
Theoretically, well, theoretically, I have the power to supervise Yan Laoxi. As for whether others will accept it...
Ha ha!
Don't think too much.
When I turned around, my face was swollen.
Supervise local powerful factions?
Why not go to heaven?
Try to go to the Inspector Gui Department?
Try to inspect the Yunnan Army?
That is to say, a hairless phoenix is not as good as a chicken. The Northeast Army, Sichuan Army, and Northwest Army are all in trouble, so there is the possibility of inspection...
The problem is, you can’t just give the number!
You just give an empty number, and then personnel, supplies, weapons, ammunition, food and wages...
I have to solve it all!
You really think highly of me!
snort!
Do you want it?
Of course!
I want an empty number too!
You never know when it will be used.
Huh?
Why the 100th Army?
Does this number have any special meaning?
100 points?
Praise yourself for doing something right or well done?
Well, I’m overthinking it.
Shaking his head, he pushed away the messy thoughts from his mind.
Pack your luggage and prepare to leave.
It's very difficult.
The main reason is that there are so many oceans that it requires many carriages to pull them.
Fortunately, he now controls the train station and can directly mobilize the train. First load all the oceans on the train.
Then he took 500 people and escorted Dayang back to Shimen in advance.
The remaining people took the second bus.
No one from the Jinsui Army showed up.
It was as if Zhang Yong was transparent to him. There was no reaction at all.
When he made such a fuss, the senior officials of the Jinsui Army probably wanted to peel off his skin and drink his blood.
Fortunately, we don’t have to see each other again from now on.
"Bang bang..."
"Bang bang..."
The train finally returned to Shimen.
Many people came to greet him.
get off.
First I saw an acquaintance.
Li Xianzhou.
There was another person beside him, standing side by side with him.
Without asking, I knew it was Li Tianxia.
They finally came.
Seeing Zhang Yong appear, the two people came up quickly.
stand at attention.
salute.
"Your Majesty Commissioner."
"Hello."
Zhang Yong did not return the gift. He extended his hand and shook hands.
Both of them are seniors. He is a junior. The other party saluted first, and he was already flattered.
"From now on, when you see me, you don't need to salute."
"yes."
"Time is tight and the task is heavy. Let's talk here."
"yes."
"I invited you here to ask you to each establish an army. One is the 68th Army and the other is the 69th Army. At present, they are all empty. There is only one brigade."
Zhang Yong told the truth.
Li Xianzhou and Li Tianxia listened silently.
In fact, they already have some understanding of the specific situation and know that the task is arduous.
This is obvious. Otherwise, there would be no point for them!
If there is a ready-made army, where will they get their turn to serve as army commander?
There just isn't. You need to pull it yourself.
"I'll take care of the weapons, ammunition, and military pay. Everything else is up to you."
"clear."
The two looked at each other.
The high-hanging heart is relieved.
To build an army, the most important things needed are weapons, ammunition, and food and wages. Zhang Yong solved them all.
The rest is personnel recruitment, establishment, training, command, and fighting. They can do it all.
"The Japanese invaders will soon go south and attack Shimen." Zhang Yong said slowly, "They need to attack westward from Shimen and besiege Taiyuan. Therefore, Shimen is a key strategic point. The Japanese invaders will fight for it frantically."
"Commissioner, there is no danger to defend Shimen..." Li Tianxia hesitated before speaking.
"Yes." Zhang Yong nodded, "There is no danger to defend Shimen. Therefore, your task is not to defend Shimen."
After a slight pause, Zhang Yong continued: "You must give full play to the advantages of mobile warfare. Don't worry about Shimen. Find the weak points of the Japanese invaders. Attack decisively to eliminate some of the Japanese invaders. The general strategic policy is to eliminate the Japanese invaders.
of our vitality. Instead of caring about the gains and losses of a city or a place.”
"What do you mean by the commissioner, are we not going to defend the city?" Li Xianzhou was a little worried.
"If you don't defend the city," Zhang Yong replied decisively, "if you defend the city, it will be blown to ashes by the Japanese aircraft and heavy artillery. It's not cost-effective."
"But……"
"I will bear the responsibility. I ordered you to do this. You are executing my order."
"yes."
"This is a written order for you. Keep it safe."
"ah……"
The two looked at each other.
I saw Zhang Yong produce two formal orders.
The above content is very simple——
"Don't worry about the gains and losses of one city or one place. Focus on wiping out the effective forces of the Japanese invaders. Aim to eliminate one regiment of Japanese invaders every month."
There is Zhang Yong's signature, fingerprint, and date underneath.
Black text on white paper.
Take full responsibility for the past.
For both of them, the responsibility is indeed gone.
However, the pressure is there. And it's huge.
It is not unusually difficult to eliminate one regiment of Japanese invaders every month.
There are more than 3,000 Japanese invaders in one regiment!
On average, more than a hundred Japanese invaders were eliminated every day.
Although they are the commander of an army, they may have 30,000 or 40,000 people.
but……
I still feel the task is arduous.
"It is indeed very difficult to form a regiment every month. However, that is the long-term goal. We will wait until the troops are strong and strong. It is definitely not possible now. However, it cannot be neglected. You now have the strength, weapons and equipment of a brigade.
It’s better. There’s enough ammunition. So, at least one brigade of Japanese invaders should be eliminated every month. More than a thousand Japanese invaders should be eliminated every month. If you can’t even do this, the army commander must be replaced.”
Zhang Yong speaks out.
It is unrealistic to eliminate more than 100 Japanese invaders every day.
However, on average, it is still possible to eliminate more than a thousand Japanese invaders every month.
Piecemeal.
The tactics of warfare are varied.
We cannot stick to rigid positional warfare.
In short, we cannot be like other national armies, rigidly fighting, and eventually they will all die.
Some people in later generations have brain problems. When talking about the contribution of the Chinese army, they always talk about how many people died in the Chinese army and how many thousands of people died in any battle.
It seems that the more people die, the greater the credit. This is simply stupid.
The more people you kill, that's merit. The more enemies you kill, that's merit.
Otherwise, if all tens of thousands of us commit suicide by jumping into the river, wouldn’t it be a great achievement?
Judging from the expressions of the two of them, you can tell that Li Tianxia accepted it quickly. This guy has a more flexible mind and a relatively high level of command.
Relatively speaking, Li Xianzhou may be a bit rigid. All he thinks about is positional warfare.
No wonder ten years later, tens of thousands of pigs will be caught.
If he were someone else's subordinate, Zhang Yong might laugh to death.
The problem is, now, Li Xianzhou is his subordinate. Thinking of tens of thousands of pigs makes him depressed.
well……
We can only wait and see the effects.
"Are you tired?"
"What?"
"I asked you two if you are tired."
"Not tired."
"Okay, then come with me. Let's search for the Japanese invaders."
"yes."
The two looked at each other.
Zhang Yong took them to kill the Japanese invaders? What does it mean?
Do we still need to teach them how to fight?
"There are some new weapons that you need to get familiar with on the battlefield."
