Chapter 754: Old and Dead Don't Get Along
After returning to the headquarters, Liao Jundong still had a loveless expression, he originally thought that inviting the Eighth Route Army to Taiyuan to garrison this time was a very smooth thing, but he didn't expect it to be so disturbing.
Hu Guoshan didn't ask Liao Jundong, because he knew very well that Liao Jundong wouldn't tell him, so Hu Guoshan reported to Liao Jundong what he talked about with Chen Cheng and Yan Laoxi today.
"Chen Cheng, they agreed?" Liao Jundong didn't believe that Chen Cheng would agree to Hu Guoshan so easily, because Chen Cheng must have known that the money would be wasted in the end.
"Not yet, they're going back to discuss it!"
If the other party does not agree to the conditions, Hu Guoshan will send them back to Taihang Mountain and let them find someone who can take care of things to talk, anyway, he can't be the master. If you agree, you can make an agreement with them according to what Liao Fan has decided in advance.
"Brother Liao, the matter over there of the Eighth Route Army has been decided?" Hu Guoshan asked tentatively.
"Yes, it has been decided, we will sign an agreement with them tomorrow, and the rest of the things will wait for the two families to move into Taiyuan, and after they move into Taiyuan, we will start withdrawing troops from these two places!" Liao Jundong pointed to the map and said.
In such a big place as Shanxi, the New Thirty-third Army occupies more than one-third, and the rest depends on what happens between the Eighth Route Army and the Jin Sui Army, if they want more territory, they can only grab it from the other party's hands, if they dare to move the New Thirty-third Army, I'm afraid Liao Fan will not tolerate it anymore!
"Brother Liao, are Liu Chundao's troops going to be withdrawn?"
"Liu Chundao's troops will definitely be withdrawn, according to the strength of your division, the strength of such a large defense area will definitely be insufficient, with Liu Chundao here, your division can buy more time for development, and when your division really grows, we will still march east to fight the little devils!"
Hu Guoshan's division is the number one main force of the new 33rd Army, and if you want to fight the little devils, you will definitely be inseparable from Hu Guoshan, and Hu Guoshan's division has the only armored unit of the new 33rd Army, and the North China Plain is the world of armored troops, and there will definitely be a lot of casualties if you rely on infantry alone.
"What about the security of the station?"
"Don't worry, there are guard regiments and Huang Changsheng in the station, they must have no problem, there is also a regiment of Liu Chundao at the stone gate, and the total strength is not less than six or seven thousand, and the troops have been expanding recently, and there is not much problem in increasing the number of troops to 10,000 in a month!"
As the area controlled by the New 33rd Army became larger and larger, more and more troops were needed, especially in the area of the Great Wall and Jingcheng, where they needed to hoard a large number of soldiers to prepare for a war with the little devils, and in Shanxi they also needed tens of thousands of troops to maintain local order and prevent someone from deliberately sabotaging the New 33rd Army.
Of course, Liao Fan has not yet decided who will stay in Shanxi to be responsible for stabilizing the rear of the New 33rd Army, after all, the New 33rd Army has no bigger plans now, and the New 33rd Army has already stepped onto the national stage, before the next move, they must be fully prepared, otherwise the New 33rd Army is likely to fall into a situation of no return because of a mistake, and these brothers of the New 33rd Army are likely to have no way to retreat because of Liao Fan's mistake.
Taiyuan is not only in Shanxi, but also in the whole of China is a relatively large political and economic center, in order not to swallow this political whirlpool, only continue to grow the power, no matter what era and what conditions, a big fist is the last word.
The day after Chen Cheng and Yan Laoxi arrived in Taiyuan, Liao Jundong signed an agreement with Ding Yuan of the Eighth Route Army, and soon after, the Eighth Route Army would send troops and working groups to Taiyuan. Of course, Chen Cheng and Yan Laoxi also agreed to give Hu Guoshan military salaries and various supplies.
"The two generals are so happy, and I, Hu Guoshan, also assure you that if there is any order from Chongqing, I Hu Guoshan will not hesitate to go to the soup!" Hu Guoshan assured Chen Cheng with a look of being in charge.
"Since Commander Hu has agreed to accept the change, he will be out of the control of the New 33rd Army from now on, and he will no longer have to listen to Liao Fan's orders, so I want to talk to Commander Hu!"
Hu Guoshan is finally able to call the shots, of course Yan Laoxi has to start planning for himself, otherwise his money will really be wasted.
"Chief Yan has something to say, I, Hu Guoshan, will be your firm ally in the future!" can get money, Hu Guoshan is now in addition to his father and mother, Yan Laoxi will give him whatever he wants.
"Commander Hu is really Commander Hu, as we all know, Shanxi is the hometown of our Jin Sui Army, Taiyuan used to be my headquarters, because of the Japanese invasion, we had to withdraw, and now Shanxi is back in the embrace of the country, and the children of the Jin Sui Army also want to go home to see!"
Hearing what Yan Laoxi said, Hu Guoshan sighed vigorously: "Chief Yan, I can indeed call the shots about Shanxi's affairs, and there is indeed no problem in letting your Jin Suijun come back!" ”
Yan Laoxi looked at Hu Guoshan with an underwhelming expression, and felt a little bad in his heart: "Commander Hu is worried that after we come to Taiyuan, your military headquarters will have no place to settle?" You can rest assured about this, as long as Commander Hu is not transferred out of Shanxi, Taiyuan City will be half a person! ”
Yan Laoxi also tried his best to be generous, after all, now that the actual control is in the hands of Hu Guoshan, he is tantamount to making conditions rather than promising Hu Guoshan.
"Chief Yan, I agree with one and a half people, but there is one thing you don't know, that is, before you came to Taiyuan, the New 33rd Army had reached an agreement with the Eighth Route Army, and a third of Taiyuan City had been ceded!" Hu Guoshan said with a regretful face, and he chose to leave this matter, which has nothing to do with him.
When Yan Laoxi heard the news, his eyes widened: "You guys...... What qualifications do they have to make an agreement with the Eighth Route Army? What qualifications does the Eighth Route Army have to enter Taiyuan? ”
"Chief Yan is angry, after all, before you came to Taiyuan, we were still under the command of the New 33rd Army, and I had to carry out some orders, if you came one step earlier, I would definitely hand over half of the control of Taiyuan!" Hu Guoshan said, "But I still have good news to tell Chief Yan, except for Division Commander Liu in Zhongtiao Mountain, our troops have withdrawn from Yuncheng, Luliang and Linfen!" My troops will not arrange any troops to be stationed in these three places! If Chief Yan doesn't hurry up now, I won't be sure who will manage me in the future! ”
Hearing Hu Guoshan's words, Yan Laoxi immediately couldn't sit still: "General Chen, Commander Hu is leaving, as for the matter of military salary, I will definitely send it to you tomorrow!" ”
After saying that, Yan Laoxi left Taiyuan with his own people, and the land of Shanxi is destined to not be peaceful for a while, at least the competition in some places may be more fierce than when the little devil is there, but what the new 33rd Army can only do is to strengthen itself as soon as possible.
Two days later, Yan Laoxi really arranged for someone to transport all the things Hu Guoshan needed to Taiyuan, Hu Guoshan was crazy, these materials can not only help them expand the army, but also develop the people's livelihood.
After Chen Cheng saw that the supplies had arrived, he also left Taiyuan and went to Zhongtiao Mountain. Of course, Liu Chundao also opened his mouth to ask Chen Cheng for materials and equipment, and the routine was exactly the same as Hu Guoshan, but Chen Cheng was missing a Shanxi rich man by his side, and he didn't have a penny, so there was no way to negotiate at all.
After spending a few days in Zhongtiao Mountain to no avail, Chen Cheng had no choice but to return to Chongqing to report the situation to Chairman Chiang. Of course, the report also includes the entry of the Eighth Route Army into Taiyuan.
Chairman Jiang didn't seem to be in a good mood, first of all, he didn't get the news he wanted, whether Liao Fan was alive or not was what he was most concerned about, and secondly, he still had to spend money on Zhongtiao Mountain's affairs to be able to get it done.
Obviously, Chairman Jiang did not intend to give money: "Let He Yingqin march towards Zhongtiao Mountain, remember that without my order, no one is allowed to shoot a single shot!" ”
"Chairman, what if they shoot?" Chen Cheng didn't know why Chairman Jiang suddenly gave such an order, if Liu Chundao gave the order to shoot, no one on both sides would have any room for recovery, and they could only fight for a victory or defeat in Zhongtiao Mountain.
"They won't shoot either, let the troops of a division keep approaching Liu Chundao's position, I want to see what their bottom line is!" For the sake of the interests of Zhongtiao Mountain, Chairman Chiang could sacrifice the strength of a division.
Chen Cheng knew that Chairman Chiang had made up his mind, and he had no choice but to send a telegram to He Yingqin in Luoyang.
At this time, Shanxi has already started fighting, the most fierce is the Jin Sui Army and the Eighth Route Army, although the two sides did not invest troops on a large scale, but today to engage in some friction, tomorrow to move some guns, it has been four or five days since the two sides have not stopped.
In these four or five days, both the Jin Sui Army and the Eighth Route Army had already arranged for troops to be stationed in Taiyuan. In Taiyuan City, the two sides are tense and will fight at any time, but Hu Guoshan came forward and said to both sides that no one is allowed to fight in Taiyuan City, and they must fight out, otherwise he will also intervene, and there will be no position for both sides in Taiyuan City at that time.
The smell of Taiyuan City is very strong, and the people on both sides dare not go to the other side of the city. And Hu Guoshan, after seeing that the two sides had no intention of making a move, was just quietly lively.
And in Zhongtiao Mountain, there was a jaw-dropping situation, the Central Army and Liu Chundao's troops ate and slept on the same position, but no one spoke between the two sides.
As Chairman Chiang expected, Liu Chundao did not shoot, but he did not stop it. So the strength of a division of the Central Army walked up to Liu Chundao's position so openly.
The soldiers on both sides looked at each other, but there was not a word, Liu Chundao ordered not to have any conflict with the other party, and to be busy with whatever he wanted.
So the soldiers on both sides appeared on the position of a strange picture, obviously only one step away from each other, but they did not interact with each other, and there was no communication between each other.
ps: Tomorrow will be interrupted, two reasons: the first is that there is something wrong with the body, because I often stay up late to write books, so I want to rest for a while, about a month or so. Second, this book deals with political issues, and in order to respond to the call of the state and relevant departments, the author himself also needs to avoid the limelight, in case he gets in, it will not be good. Thank you for your continued support!
