Qu Tongfeng was completely desperate. The current situation helplessly reminded him of Jiang Fangzhen, the former principal of Baoding Military Academy. His suicide act at the military academy grounds was enough to reveal his thoughts. At this moment, he couldn't help but want to imitate him. The two became principals of Baoding one after another.
, it makes no sense that the former is a hero, and the latter is a bear forced by his subordinates. Thinking of this, he sighed sadly: "Come on, come on, I am incompetent. I can't lead the army to win, and I can't restrain my subordinates. I'm sorry.
Supervisor, you are ashamed of your country, why should you leave such a useless body?"
As he spoke, he suddenly drew his gun and aimed it at his chest, about to commit suicide, but was stopped by Lin Jianyue with quick eyes and hands. After all, he had the friendship between teachers and students of Baoding Military Academy. Although he did not agree with Qu Tongfeng's command, he did not miss him either.
He died like this. Forcibly taking away Qu Tongfeng's gun, Lin Jianyue said urgently: "Commander-in-chief, principal, please listen to me. The Anhui clique is gone. You and Wu Peifu have a teacher-student relationship. Why don't you preserve yourself and stay?"
Don’t be afraid of not having enough wood to burn the green hills. Besides, your youngest son is only three years old. If you lose your father, how miserable will your life be in the future.”
After hearing Lin Jianyue's last words, Qu Tongfeng's body softened, and the belief in his heart that he would sacrifice his life to make a benevolence disappeared without a trace. He had a son when he was old and regarded his youngest son as a treasure. He really couldn't bear to abandon his family like this.
The karma is dead.
Lin Jianyue understood Qu Tongfeng's intention and said: "Commander-in-Chief, please give the order quickly to avoid causing more casualties to our brothers."
Qu Tongfeng sighed and waved his hand feebly: "You can do it for me."
Lin Jianyue was overjoyed and ordered to the surrounding generals: "Raise the white flag and send people to negotiate with the enemy for surrender."
The generals all breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly issued ceasefire orders to the fighting soldiers.
…
"Company commander, the enemy has raised a white flag."
Xu Pengzu happily ran into the command post to report to Han Baihanghui.
"Qu Zhuizi finally couldn't hold on anymore." Han Baihang was overjoyed and hurriedly came to the observation point. Sure enough, he saw that the First Division at the bottom of the valley had stopped shooting. A man holding a white flag walked out of the position and was shouting while heading towards the top of the mountain.
Come.
"Stay alert and beware of deception by the Anhui army." Han Baihang said calmly: "Bring that person over to me."
"Yes!" Xu Pengzu went to execute the order. Han Baihang pondered for a moment, took off the military rank on his shoulders, and ordered to the left and right: "Send the order, you are not allowed to call me company commander, I will be called chief instead."
After a while, Xu Pengzu brought the man back, searched him and pushed him into the command post. The man got used to the darkness in the command post, looked around, and found that the people inside were not of high military rank, and the highest person was a second lieutenant.
, couldn't help but said in surprise: "May I ask who the commander of your army is?"
Xu Pengzu was about to speak, but when he saw Han Baihang give him a look, he was stunned and did not speak.
Han Baihang looked at the person who came, and saw that his military rank was major. He thought about it secretly, coughed lightly and said: "I am Han Baihang, the commander of the third division advancing to search for the enemy. Please explain your purpose of coming."
He appointed himself a commander without thinking. This was out of necessity to surrender the first division. After all, it would be too childish for a small company commander to surrender a division. He was afraid that he would not be able to convince the crowd, but the position of commander is much more subtle.
It can be big or small, and the establishment can be a regiment or a brigade. Anyway, the first division can't verify the authenticity of his words, which will be very helpful for the next action.
The visitor hurriedly turned his attention to Han Baihang and saluted: "Sir, my humble post is Han Fengying, Commander of the Third Battalion of the 1st Division, 2nd Brigade, 4th Regiment, and under the orders of Brigadier Lin, Commander-in-Chief Qu, of our division, we are discussing the surrender with your army.
"
Han Baihang looked at Han Fengying calmly, nodded and said: "I can accept the surrender of your troops, but the prerequisite is to lay down your weapons and surrender, accept the incorporation of our army, and at the same time, your officers above the camp must leave their command posts."
Han Fengying said: "I will convey Commander Han's opinions to Commander Qu."
"Then please go back quickly and give your army five minutes to think about it. If it exceeds the time limit, our army will launch a general attack." Han Baihang gave a harsh time, which was equivalent to not giving Qu Tongfeng a chance to think.
Han Fengying saluted and left in a hurry. He returned to the First Division and told Han Baihang's conditions. Qu Tongfeng was disheartened at this time and accepted them all. When Lin Jianzhang heard this harsh condition, he immediately shook his head and said:
"The recruitment is possible, but all our officers cannot be replaced. If we agree to surrender immediately, otherwise we would rather fight to the end and you can negotiate later."
Han Fengying found Han Baihang again and explained what Lin Jianzhang meant. Han Baihang heard a slight difference between the lines in his words. Lin Jianzhang was mentioned many times instead of Qu Tongfeng. This made him think a lot and said calmly: "Qu Tongfeng
Doesn’t the general have any objections?”
Han Fengying hurriedly said: "Commander Qu has given full authority over the negotiations to Brigadier Lin. He can fully represent all the officers and soldiers of the First Division."
Han Baihang thought thoughtfully, something must have happened to the First Division, otherwise the person on the stage should not be Lin Jianyue, but Qu Tongfeng. Who is this Lin Jianyue? He doesn't know in his heart, but this does not hinder him
Making a bold assumption, is it possible that this Lin Jianyue prompted the 1st Division to surrender, otherwise he would not have made the request to retain the officers of the 1st Division.
As for whether to retain the officers of the First Division, Han Baihang was wary, but he could not ignore Lin Jianyue's opinion. After thinking for a long time, he came up with a compromise plan and said: "It is impossible to retain all the officers of the First Division.
I can only promise that 30% of the officers above the battalion will stay in their posts. If I can agree, please ask Brigadier Lin to come to the battle line to negotiate in person, otherwise you don’t have to come again. Our army would rather pay a certain price of casualties than destroy the First Division."
Han Fengying went back with Han Baihang's words and told Lin Jianyue the conditions. Lin Jianyue was silent for a long time and nodded in agreement. As for going to the front to negotiate, he readily agreed. Since he wanted to surrender, he naturally had to show his sincerity.
All the soldiers of the First Division put down their weapons, and Lin Jianyue and Qu Tongfeng came to the front of the formation. Han Fengying went to shout the message. Han Baihang saw it through the telescope and led a platoon of soldiers to the front of the formation.
When the two parties met, Han Baihang, Qu Tongfeng, and Lin Jianyue looked at each other. Han Baihang looked at Qu Tongfeng and Lin Jianyue carefully, and they also looked at him, without speaking to each other.
Han Baihang did not speak. He was the victor and could hold his breath more calmly than Qu Tongfeng and Lin Jianyue. After a while of silence, Lin Jianyue was the first to speak. He slowly took a step forward and saluted Han Baihang: "Ding Guojun is here.
Lin Jianyue, commander of the second brigade of the division, surrendered to your army on behalf of the entire division."
Han Baihang responded with a military salute and said loudly: "On behalf of the Third Division, I accept the surrender of your army. According to our agreement, I ask your army to hand over the radio station, lay down their weapons, and assemble in front of the formation to surrender."
