Although the Japanese army occupied northern Jiangsu, the anti-Japanese resistance in northern Jiangsu never stopped for a day.

Xinghua, Suining, and Suqian were mostly in the hands of Han Deqin, and although the sun flag was fluttering in Yancheng and Funing, guerrilla warfare never stopped.

More importantly, with the end of the Battle of Xuzhou, the Japanese army set the next plan in Wuhan, and Han Deqin has begun to actively deploy and prepare for a major military operation in Suzhou.

When Meng Shaoyuan was picked up by a platoon of soldiers to Suqian, he did not encounter any obstacles from the Japanese along the way.

It seems that Han Deqin's life is quite comfortable.

When it comes to President Han, the War of Resistance is still unambiguous.

During the Battle of Xuzhou, Han Deqin's 24th Army was responsible for the southern front, fighting the Japanese army in the Yancheng and Funing areas of northern Jiangsu, fighting the enemy and blocking the enemy advancing from the east to the north, otherwise Xuzhou would be attacked by the Japanese army from the north and south.

Stationed in Suqian, it is the 198th Regiment of the 33rd Division.

The temporary headquarters was set up in the home of a wealthy man in Suqian. After the Japanese army entered northern Jiangsu, this rich man actively planned to surrender, and Han Deqin suppressed him, and by the way, he also requisitioned his house.

"The observer is here, welcome the observer."

As soon as I entered, I saw that there were already quite a few people.

Yishui's generals, major generals, lieutenant generals, and Meng Shaoyuan, a major who has just been promoted, are really nothing in this group.

Han Deqin, chairman of the Jiangsu Provincial Government, looked particularly enthusiastic and greeted Meng Shaoyuan in person: "Come, let me introduce you, this is General Xue Sixu Xue sent by Chief Li Zongren." ”

"Hello Chief Xue." Meng Shaoyuan hurriedly stood up and saluted.

"You are Meng Shaoyuan." Xue Sixu shook hands with him: "Some time ago, I was in Xuzhou, you were in Shanghai, remote command, you didn't need to meet, you found out the traitor, this magical scene, we are still talking about it so far." ”

"Chief Xue is polite, that's my business."

"If people don't meet, they can find out the mole? Good skills, good skills, when you are free, you must talk to me about it. Han Deqin obviously hadn't heard of this, and then pointed to a major general on the side and said:

"General Hou Yongsheng, director of the Xuzhou Strategic Materials Management Office."

"Hello Sir Hou." Meng Shaoyuan saluted again.

This guy is in the middle of the department, and he is the right one.

Hou Yongsheng didn't show anything in particular, and smiled: "I have admired the name of the observer for a long time, and I am very fortunate to see it today, very lucky." ”

Thankfully, your sister.

For you guys in the center department, you have to have a lot more eyes.

There is also a person, Li Mingyang, the administrative inspector of the ninth district, who is also a real power.

If it weren't for the name of an observer in the chairman's chamber, Meng Shaoyuan would not have had the opportunity to share a room with these people.

Han Deqin invited them to sit down, ordered tea, and told them not to disturb them if they were not instructed.

After explaining this, Han Deqin, as the master, said: "You are all pillars of the party and the state, and it is the glory of Suqian and my Han Deqin to be able to gather in Suqian City today." At present, the Japanese army is arrogant in the Arctic of the Soviet Union, but I can ensure that your safety here is enough to be guaranteed. ”

"That's nature." Hou Yongsheng said: "Suqian has Chairman Han's elite 198 regiment, Suining has the 701st and 702nd regiments, and the guerrilla column of the Sulu-Anhui border area of the fifth theater is guarded, which is naturally like an iron wall!" ”

Meng Shaoyuan also said: "In addition, there is another army that is also protecting the security of northern Jiangsu, and Chairman Han can go to Suqian at any time under the order." ”

"Oh?" Han Deqin immediately became interested: "I don't know which team the observer is talking about?" ”

"The guerrillas commanded by Shaw Fogen."

"Xiao Fugen?" Han Deqin frowned: "Although this person is from a reckless background, he can be regarded as a sincere anti-Japanese person." It's just that I even sent him a letter of appointment, but he didn't react at all, so I can't tell what he's thinking. ”

Meng Shaoyuan smiled and said, "It's the first time I've met Chairman Han, and I always think that I can't come empty-handed, so I brought a meeting gift. Chairman Han, after my persuasion, Xiao Fugen is willing to accept the appointment of the Jiangsu Provincial Government! ”

"What?"

Han Deqin was stunned at first, and then overjoyed: "What you said is true?" ”

Xiao Fugen's guns are important, but what Han Deqin values more is his influence in northern Jiangsu and the tens of thousands of disciples of the Green Gang in northern Jiangsu.

That's a lot of power.

He recruited Xiao Fugen several times, but the other party always did not respond accurately, but now that this observer came, he actually completed this matter?

Han Deqin was happy, but he was still a little skeptical: "Observer, how did you convince Xiao Fugen?" ”

Meng Shaoyuan said lightly: "I originally wanted to persuade him how Chairman Han is a hero, but when I think about it, it will be too much sycophancy." ”

As soon as these words were spoken, several people had smiles on their faces.

Meng Shaoyuan continued: "In short, it is nothing more than knowing the righteousness and making small profits. In the next few days, Xiao Fugen will personally come to thank Chairman Han in person. ”

Han Deqin no longer doubted: "A good one knows the righteousness and moves the small profit, this is really the only reaction to employing people." The Japanese are now arrogant in northern Jiangsu, and I am ready to them. With this person's help, it's a great strength. ”

"Exactly." Li Mingyang, the administrative inspector of the ninth district, said: "The situation in northern Jiangsu is very complicated, the 100,000 ** soldiers commanded by Chairman Han, the Fourth Route Army, this, various guerrillas, among which there are a large number of armed special forces of the military commander, ah, if you can unite around the government, I think there will still be a dozen with the Japanese." ”

This can be regarded as an introduction, as soon as Li Mingyang opened his mouth, Xue Sixu said in passing: "Since it is said that I am fighting with the Japanese, myself, Chairman Han, Director Hou, and Observer Meng have also arrived, so I just want to talk about business." In the Battle of Xuzhou, we achieved brilliant results, while giving a large number of casualties to the Japanese army, 600,000 ** soldiers successfully jumped out of the encirclement.

Commander Li planned for the anti-Japanese war and left a large amount of supplies in the regular army. The Sulu Theater received a part from the commander, a part from the commander of Shandong Province, and half from the commander, and half was distributed by Jiangsu. How this should be distributed, and how it can be evenly divided, still needs to be discussed. ”

Li Mingyang didn't have time to think about it and blurted out: "Of course, everything depends on Chairman Han's meaning." ”

Han Deqin is cunning: "Although I am the master and the chairman of the Jiangsu Provincial Government, it's just that this batch of materials is not mine, and I am also a beneficiary." As for me, the chairman, I can only participate in the distribution, and cannot interfere with the distribution. The specific who takes more and who takes less, everything is still up to Director Xue and Director Hou, they are the executive officers. ”

After speaking, he deliberately glanced at Meng Shaoyuan: "As for the fairness of the distribution, since the commission has sent Observer Meng, then this matter will be handed over to Observer Meng." ”

This guy is really an old fox, no wonder he was able to rise all the way.

In the distribution of materials on his territory, of course, he takes the lion's share, which is naturally beyond doubt. He was glad to get out of it, to sit back and enjoy it, and not to offend anyone.

As for yourself?

Meng Shaoyuan can be regarded as convincing him.

He was only appointed by Luo Liangjian, but in Han Deqin's mouth, he became directly appointed by the chairman of the committee, and while this power increased suddenly, what will go wrong in the future, and Observer Meng will not be able to bear a large part of the responsibility?

The problem is that Han Deqin is right.

Isn't the special observer in the chairman's chamber the representative of the chairman himself?

"So, I'll recommend myself." Xue Sixu spoke first: "This batch of materials was transferred from the Fifth War Zone, and Commander Li, as the commander-in-chief of the Fifth War Zone, has the right to decide how to distribute this batch of materials. ”

The implication of this is that he was assigned by Li Zongren, and naturally occupies a dominant position in the distribution of materials.

"Director Xue's words are inevitably a little biased." Hou Yongsheng said without yin or yang: "The materials are indeed transferred from the Fifth War Zone, but so many materials are mobilized by the national government. I am appointed by the Nationalist Government to supervise the distribution of materials, and I represent not myself, but the Nationalist Government. ”

The hat is even bigger.

"I represent both Commander Li and the Nationalist Government." Xue Sixu did not back down at all: "As the saying goes, if you are outside, you will not be affected by your order." I think Commander Li still has a say in the distribution of materials, right? ”

"Ladies and gentlemen, put the controversy on hold for now." Han Deqin hurriedly interrupted the two: "Speaking of which, getting these materials is nothing more than anti-Japanese, and it is just a matter of fighting with Little Japan to the end, and whoever gets it is the same." Director Xue, you represent the national government, Director Hou, you also represent the national government, the question is that there is only one national government, who should you listen to? ”

When he said this, he actually had a plan in his heart: "But, who can really represent the national government?" I think there's only one, Chairman! ”

As soon as these words came out, there was no more controversy.

Han Deqin smiled slightly: "Since the chairman of the committee can represent the national government, and our observer Meng was personally sent by the commissioner, then he represents the commission, that is, the national government!" ”

I'm spicy to your mother's Han Deqin!

Meng Shaoyuan was in a hurry, and the northern Jiangsu dialect he had just learned in his stomach was scolded.

What the fuck are you talking about? What do I represent? I don't represent your whole family.

What is it?

Murderous knives!

What is this position?

A big brazier!

If there is a slight problem, he will offend the local forces, the Fourth Route Army, and the Central Adjustment Department.

Maybe even the chairman of the committee will be offended!

You want your Young Master Meng to die!

"I suggest!" Han Deqin's face was straight: "From now on, a special office for material distribution will be established, with Meng Shaoyuan as the material distribution commissioner, and Director Xue and Director Waiting as deputy commissioners." ”

"I'm just a major, how can I be qualified to be the commander of the generals!"

As soon as Meng Shaoyuan heard it, he immediately protested loudly!
