Chapter 1076: Doing the Best (Asking for a Monthly Pass)
In fact, Fang didn't admire Hu Zongnan very much, of course, he just admired his luck.
Because his height was less than 1.6 meters, he was almost unable to enter the Whampoa Military Academy, but since entering the school, this person has "turned into a dragon when he encounters a storm" and started his legendary life.
He is known as the "Prince of Whampoa" and "the first protégé of heaven", etc., and there is no one of the most trusted generals of the chairman.
He was the first commander of the Whampoa students in the Kuomintang Army, the first commander-in-chief of the corps, the first commander-in-chief of the group army, and the first commander of the theater......
Luck is incomprehensible.
But when it comes to his achievements in the Anti-Japanese War, compared with Song Xilian, he is much worse.
Fang Buwei only remembered that he led his army to participate in the two major battles of the Battle of Lanfeng and the Battle of Wuhan, but he basically fought on the periphery and never fought a tough battle.
Except for these two, there is no imprint in other battles.
In fact, Hu Zongnan's glorious and legendary half of his life was either fighting a civil war or on the way to a civil war......
This is how he made these exploits, as well as the chairman's trust in him.
Comparing him with Song Xilian, the ending is also worlds apart.
Song Xilian was still fighting fiercely at the last moment, and did not hesitate to cut himself before being captured.
But before Hu Zongnan reached the last moment, he abandoned nearly 100,000 troops and fled, and ran back to Taiwan alone.
It was the only time he escaped, but it ruined his life!
Many people in later generations commented on him, saying that his military talent was not high, not to mention Wang Jingjiu, Song Xilian and these two were even inferior to Song Yuanliang.
And the four of them are all from the first phase of Huangpu, and they are all cronies among the cronies of the chairman......
Fang Buwei sighed secretly in his heart, chatted with Hu Zongnan casually, and then offered his farewell.
There are still a lot of things waiting for him, and he doesn't dare to stay longer.
When he crossed the river by boat, he saw that Bian Congjun was already receiving the first batch of refugees.
The sick and disabled with children were all arranged to make dry food in hidden fortifications, and those who could hold shovels and work were all driven to the construction site.
can't do no work at all, in case Tang Shengzhi wants to come and inspect on a whim, wouldn't it be all exposed?
The sound of artillery is still continuous, and the planes in the sky are as dense as startled sparrows, and the dense cannon sound can be heard in the east, north, and south.
Fang Buwei listened attentively, the recent artillery sound was in the east, and it was estimated that the Japanese army was storming Jiangjun Mountain and Niushou Mountain.
The Japanese army was about to attack and regain the position, and the chairman fantasized that he would rely on the outer positions and the outer city of Guocheng to hold on for two months, and it seemed that he could only hold on for two days at most.
I don't know what he will think when he is far away in Wuhan knows the latest war situation.
In fact, if the retreat plan is deployed now, it will still be too late.
The Japanese army had only surrounded the river on three sides, and had not yet crossed the river, and the west, that is, the place west of Pukou, was still safe.
But Fang Buwei also knew that his idea was purely a fantasy.
After escaping to Wuhan after nine deaths, the first thing that came to the chairman's mind was not to send troops to reinforce or contain the Japanese troops attacking Nanjing, nor to arrange for the evacuation of the troops left behind in Nanjing, which had already shown signs of defeat, but to rush for German Ambassador Todmann to hold a press conference.
In order to get out of danger, when you did not hesitate to dispatch all the planes to launch an air battle, you gritted your teeth and looked at the hatred that was about to split?
It's not been a day......
Fang Buwei's sense of battle and smell of the chairman of the committee, and his selfishness to preserve their own strength at all times in the national army, was already completely desperate.
Even if the reinforcements promised by the Soviet Union were under the guise of the Dian army sent by Long Yun, there were still nearly 20 divisions withdrawn from the Songhu battlefield, as well as reinforcements that came later, more than 30 divisions and more than 200,000 people, all of which were in Yixing, Changxing, and Guangde, which were less than 100 kilometers away from Nanjing, just behind the Japanese army attacking Nanjing.
These troops have been watching the drama for a whole month!
Fang Buwei knew better, they would continue to watch......
After the defeat of the war, these troops will naturally prevaricate with the reason that "they dare not move without military orders", but what about the chairman, do you want to keep these troops to lay eggs?
As long as these troops were slightly restrained, Nanjing would not have fought so fiercely, let alone the tragedy that followed......
Fang Buwei didn't know what to say anymore.
He only knew that even if he went to the battlefield, he wouldn't play a big role, and his role was still internal......
Do what you can!
The matter of transporting refugees is in charge of Bian Congjun, Ye Xingzhong, and Feng Jiashan, and there are also Song Xilian and Hu Zongnan's people to help him, so he doesn't need to be staring at it for the time being, so Fang Buwei wants to go to Commander Tang.
Fang Buwei first went to the Tang Mansion on Guling Road, that is, the temporary city defense headquarters, but Tan Daoping told him that the war was tight, and Commander Tang had gone to the temporary headquarters of the Ministry of Railways.
Tan Daoping was packing up with a few ginseng, as well as Tang Shengzhi's family, and it seemed that they were going to move over.
Fang Buwei sighed secretly.
Tang Shengzhi was finally reluctant to move his nest.
Prior to this, except for meetings, Tang Shengzhi generally stayed in the Tang Mansion, and even rarely inspected the position.
First, he was sick and frail, and most of the garrison positions around Nanjing were still clothed, and Tang Shengzhi couldn't climb up at all, unless he was in a wheelchair like himself and was carried up.
Isn't that just a joke?
The second is that the chairman of the committee is still there, and the most he can do is to take a look, listen to it, and ask questions.
It's not his turn to point out.
As soon as the chairman left, he, the commander-in-chief of the city defense, could be regarded as having a veritable meaning by name.
But Fang is not suspicious, Commander Tang is willing to move, not only for these two reasons, but also for more important reasons.
The garrison headquarters temporarily located in the Ministry of Railways is only a little more than a kilometer away from the Rujiang Gate, and even if you walk, you can get out of the city gate in a few minutes and reach the Xiaguan Wharf......
Afraid that after the city was broken, the Japanese army commander drove straight in, and also in order to prepare for street fighting, the closer to the road to the city gate, the more seven pits and eight depressions were dug, the original distance was less than four kilometers, the car went around 12 or 3 kilometers, and drove for more than half an hour.
Xiao Shanling really did not break his promise, and the streets near the temporary headquarters were all under martial law, except for the soldiers, there was not a single pedestrian in sight.
By the time we arrived at the Ministry of Railways, it was already dark, there were no planes in the sky, and even the sound of artillery everywhere gradually thinned out.
I can finally breathe a sigh of relief, but it's just a mouthful.
The real war is the one that starts tomorrow.
Seeing that it was Fang Buwei who got out of the car, the two guards at the door took the initiative to run over, and Fang Buwei's driver, as well as the mountain, the four of them worked together to carry Fang Buwei into the basement.
Fang Wei didn't hear the ticking of telegrams on the radio station from a distance, as well as the sound of the operational staff officer's report.
