"Warlord... Mistaken country! ”
Huang Haoran only said five words, but Li Pinxian was like being struck by lightning!
Li Pinxian was surprised by Huang Haoran's straightforwardness and boldness, although he had thought about such a thought countless times in his heart, he didn't dare to say it once. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Warlord? Who are the warlords? Chief Li, Chief Bai, Long Yun, Yan Xishan and even the highest authorities, these core leaders of China's War of Resistance at the moment, are all from warlords! Who dares to say that they are misleading the country?
Li Pinxian felt a little dizzy, his lips were dry, these words came out of the mouth of Huang Haoran, a general of the Central Army, a confidant of the highest authority, and Yang Sen's future son-in-law, it was really extraordinarily impactful!
Huang Haoran saw Li Pinxian's reaction in his eyes, and knew that he had completely broken Li Pinxian's mental defense, and next, it was time to go straight to Huanglong!
"Crane age! We, the soldiers, have really committed too many sins, and now fighting with the Japanese is a national war! It's a great opportunity for us to atone for our sins! If you don't work hard now, when will you stay? Do you want to be spurned by the people!? ”
In fact, the civil war has nothing to do with Huang Haoran, Huang Haoran's army was established relatively late, and he has no experience in the warlord melee at all, but if Huang Haoran deliberately leaves out his relationship with the civil war at this time, I am afraid that it will immediately arouse Li Pinxian's disgust and vigilance, and this conversation will not continue.....
Therefore, Huang Haoran deliberately put himself and Li Pinxian in the same "sinner" position, so that it would be easier for Li Pinxian to accept his point of view.
"Brother Youchen! You are kind to me in Huangmei, and today woke me up again, if I Li Heling doesn't tell the truth anymore, it will be too bad to be on the road......! ”
Sure enough, Li Pinxian was moved by Huang Haoran's words, and he began to pull out the words that were originally pressed in his heart: "Speak with my conscience, I really want to kill more devils, but someone just stumbled on you and didn't let you get your wish!" My 4th Corps is a hodgepodge, the troops under it are all sorted, when guarding Huangmei, they share hardships, and they can fight hard, and now... But each has his own thoughts... An order is sent down, and the following can be executed at most 30% ......"
The helpless fact that as the commander of the corps, he is weak in restraining his subordinates, which is really not a glorious thing, so Li Pinxian's voice is getting lower and lower, and the last few words are like mosquitoes humming.
"I just want to fight now, I'm afraid it's wishful thinking, not to mention the Northwest Army and the Sichuan Army, even my own 11th Army, only about one-third of the generals are willing to fight at the moment...... What Guangxi powerhouse? What is the Gui elite? Hum! It's not as good as the Qianjun! ”
After saying all the words, the expression of guilt completely occupied Li Pinxian's face. Huang Haoran knew that Li Pinxian in this state was the most vulnerable, so he decided to take another dose of fierce medicine.
"Crane age... I know you're an upright person and won't speak ill of the old elders, but you can't listen to anyone else's everything! Although it is the duty of a soldier to obey orders, he still has to have his own ideas in the face of major rights and wrongs... An army without ideas is dangerous! It's like a wild horse that can't hurt others, but it can hurt yourself! ”
Huang Haoran's words almost didn't directly mention the name of "Xiao Zhuge ", and Li Pinxian didn't even have the meaning to refute a sentence and a half, which shows that Li Pinxian has acquiesced in the "crime" that Huang Haoran added to "Xiao Zhuge ", and believes that the "Gui family" should not have the idea of preserving strength in the War of Resistance Against Japan.
Now, the conditions needed to persuade Li Pinxian to fight in Susong are finally ready.....
"Soza, you just say what should I do!? I, Li Pinxian, put down a sentence first, even if only my guard group is willing to listen to me, I will take them to the top! ”
Of course, there is an exaggeration in Li Pinxian's words, you must know that there is a Gui 11th Group Army in the 4th Corps, and many of the army and division commanders in it are Li Pinxian's old subordinates.
As the general of the miscellaneous army, he has a hand in controlling the troops, if Li Pinxian can't even transfer one or two divisions under him at a critical juncture, then he is not worthy of having his current status in the "Gui Department".
"Heling, how many divisions do you have at present?"
Before making a decision, it is a basic principle to figure out your hole cards. After hearing Huang Haoran's question, Li Pinxian thought for a moment, and then replied:
"Qin Lianfang, the commander of the 84th Army, followed me in his early years, and he had a tight control over the 3 divisions under him, so there should be no problem.... Liao Lei, the commander of the 48th Army, is an old qualification, but I am afraid that Commander Bai has already greeted him in advance, so the 3 divisions of Liao Lei's army may not be very useful......"
"So, with the 103rd division of the Guizhou Army, there are only 4 divisions that can be determined?"
The numbers Li Pinxian said were similar to what Huang Haoran had predicted in advance, but they were not enough to fight the 27th Division, and according to conventional calculations, a division with strong combat capability of the Chinese army could only draw with a wing of the Japanese army if its tactics were completely correct. Li Pinxian's troops and the Guizhou army are both divisions that have been exhausted from a long battle, and there is a serious shortage of soldiers, and the combat effectiveness of such four divisions is actually equivalent to that of normal two divisions.
And the 27th Division, however, has three infantry wings! In addition, the artillery, engineer, and baggage units directly under the division and regiment headquarters will only be more difficult to fight than a single Japanese wing!
And the 27th Division only needs to hold on to the defense, so in a vicious battle like this, the Chinese army only invests 4 divisions in the front, which is really not enough ......!
Li Pinxian knew what Huang Haoran was worried about, and seeing Huang Haoran's brows frowning slightly, Li Pinxian immediately added:
"I can't say that, as far as I know, the Sichuan Army and the Northwest Army are also willing to fight with the devils, but they are worried that the troops will not be replenished after the battle, and they are afraid that they will be swallowed up by the Central Army......"
Yes, compared with the semi-central militarized Guizhou Army and the "Gui Department" army with Commander Li and Commander Bai as backers, the generals of the Northwest Army and the Sichuan Army in the 4th Corps were in the most difficult situation. They not only had to be careful of the Japanese troops on the other side, but also had to pay attention to their own people and the Central Army that was eyeing them behind their backs.
If we want to mobilize these troops to make real money, we must first solve their worries......
As for what kind of method can be used to succeed, Huang Haoran has already made a decision on the road - he wants to tell a big lie!
"Heling, there have been some rumors about me recently, I don't know if you heard it?"
Li Pinxian obviously didn't expect Huang Haoran to suddenly change the topic, so he reacted a little slowly:
"Oh...!? Right! Right! Aware! Aware! I heard that Mrs. has adopted Yang Sen's daughter as a righteous daughter, and is choosing a good day for Brother Youchen to marry! This honor is really envious of others......"
Huang Haoran shook his head with a smile, and then said to Li Pinxian: "I'm talking about the latest personnel changes..."
"Personnel changes"? These four words passed through Li Pinxian's mind quickly, and he immediately cheered up his spirit. At this time, Li Pinxian suddenly thought of one thing, that is, his chief of staff had said such a paragraph after reading the telegram sent by "Xiao Zhuge ": "Chief Bai is dragging Huang Haoran back at this juncture, it is likely that Huang Haoran has threatened the control of our "Gui family" over the 5th theater......
Of course, there is a basis for such a judgment, and at the moment the Chinese troops on the battlefield in Wuhan mainly belong to the three major departments, the 5th Theater, the 9th Theater and the Wuhan Garrison Command.
In terms of strength, among the three, the 5th Theater under the command of Chief Bai was the most, Chen Cixiu's 9th Theater was second, and Huang Haoran's Wuhan Garrison Commander had the fewest troops.
But to talk about the results achieved, it is just reversed. Huang Haoran, who had the least number of troops among the three, had the heaviest combat exploits, not only annihilating the 6th Division of the Japanese Army, but also besieging the 27th Division in the Susong area, and almost not an inch of land was lost in the defense area.
Although Chen Cixiu's performance was not as good as Huang Haoran, and he lost Jiujiang and other important towns in the war, he also had a big victory in Wanjialing to support the face of the 9th War Zone.
Only the 5th Theater of Operations of "Xiao Zhuge " resisted from beginning to end, and not only did not have a single big victory, but the losses of the subordinate units were quite large. Although a stalemate with the Japanese army was finally fought on the northern front, if Huang Haoran hadn't reached out in time, Huangmei Guangji on the southern front would have been lost, and the 5th theater would still have to fall into a completely passive situation!
Compared with Chief Li, the big brother of the "Gui Department" who created the great victory of Taierzhuang, Xiao Zhuge is now a big step worse in the 5th War Zone!
Therefore, in the Wuhan Military Commission, the call to send someone to replace Xiao Zhuge as the commander of the 5th Theater can be said to be one after another, and in addition to the former commander of the 5th Theater Li Delin, the names of Gu Zhutong and Jiang Dingwen also appear frequently on the list of successors.
Of course, the most proposed is to let Huang Haoran pick up the two burdens of the Wuhan Garrison Command and the 5th Theater together. The senior members of the Central Military Commission believe that at present, the battle lines of the Jiang Defense Army and the 5th Theater have actually been connected, especially in the southern front, and Huang Haoran has become the de facto supreme commander.
In addition, the main force of the 5th Theater of Li Pinxian's Corps is already under the command of Huang Haoran, so it is better to merge the two large units of the 5th Theater and the Wuhan Garrison Headquarters! Maybe under the command of Huang Haoran, these hundreds of thousands of troops on the northern front can make one or two more big victories! By that time, won't even the siege of Wuhan be lifted?
Although these news have not yet been officially acknowledged, they are groundless and may not be without reason! You must know that the secrecy work of the government departments of the Republic of China has always been bad, and sometimes the accuracy of the "grapevine" is still very high!
Since Huang Haoran mentioned this matter in front of him at this moment, this personnel change can never be the appointment, dismissal and dispatch of several army commanders! Could it be that Huang Haoran will replace Xiao Zhuge as Li Pinxian's top boss?
In Li Pinxian's view, the high-ranking officials of the Military Commission are so supportive of Huang Haoran at this time, obviously not only at the military level. I'm afraid that the marriage that "Madame" prepared for Huang Haoran is the real reason why those people are ready to surprise and enhance Huang Haoran's power!
As the so-called county officials are not as good as the current management, no matter how bold the Sichuan Army and the Northwest Army are, they will never dare to offend their top bosses! With such hole cards in hand, it's no wonder that Huang Haoran is so calm!
"General seat, could it be that the Military Commission really intends to merge the troops of the Jiang Defense Army and the 5th Theater of Operations? That's great! It must be a pleasure to be able to fight devils under your command! ”
Test! Absolutely a naked temptation! Li Pinxian seems to be anxious to know Huang Haoran's hole cards, and he can speak so explicitly.
"These are all rumors without a shadow, and they can't be taken seriously...... I'm just giving you a heads up! Heling, don't think about it....."
Although Huang Haoran said negative words in his mouth, Li Pinxian noticed that Huang Haoran had a smug smile on his face.
"What Chief Huang said is that the rumors are indeed unbelievable....."
Li Pinxian's answer was very tactful, and he focused all on the title of Huang Haoran, changing from "general seat" to "chief", which was another test of Huang Haoran.
"Let's get down to business and talk about how to mobilize Wang Zanxu and Liu Ruming!"
Without the slightest resistance, Huang Haoran accepted the new name of "Chief Huang" very calmly, what does this mean? Li Pinxian felt that there was no need for him to test it anymore!
Li Pinxian now regrets very much that he can only control the 3 divisions of the Gui department, a subordinate who does not control the troops effectively, which commander will like it? Let's show your loyalty!
In order to leave a capable image in Huang Haoran's heart, Li Pinxian tried his best to straighten his waist and replied loudly: "Sir Huang, please rest assured, his subordinates will do their best to make Wang Zanxu and Liu Ruming obey orders, everyone is a soldier, and patriotism should always be there!" ”
Of course, Huang Haoran understood what Li Pinxian's "reliance" was when he said these words at the moment, seeing that his idea was completed so smoothly, Huang Haoran was very happy in his heart, and the smile on his face was also extraordinarily bright because it came from the bottom of his heart. This made Li Pinxian more sure in his heart that Huang Haoran was about to become the top boss of their 4th Corps, and his words became more and more respectful.
Huang Haoran didn't expect such a result, who would have thought that Li Pinxian would actually "take the initiative" under the guidance of this "preconceived" thought!? Huang Haoran suddenly discovered that the lies he had prepared in advance were no longer necessary to say at this moment.
In that case, it is a mistake to simply make a mistake...... Know that time is precious!
**************************************************************************
When Huang Haoran and Li Pinxian were "fighting" inside the house, Xu Xinghua and Xu Zilong, who were guarding outside the house, were not idle.
Although it was very successful in reaching Li Pinxian's corps headquarters before the 99th Division launched an attack, it also interrupted the communication between Huang Haoran and the Wuhan Garrison Headquarters for a long time.
"Seat, these two are urgent telegrams from Chief of Staff Fan, and Tianjiazhen is waiting for instructions from the general seat!"
"Seat, Wuhan Military Commission sent an urgent telegram, asking for it to be sent to the head seat immediately!"
With the development of the work of sending and receiving and translating telegrams, some of the more important telegrams were gradually screened out by the newspaper personnel and sent to Xu Xinghua one after another.
Xu Xinghua was puzzled by one of the telegrams handed over by the newspaper staff, but since he did not have the right to read them, Xu Xinghua did not check the contents of the telegram, but muttered a few words in a low voice.
"An urgent telegram from the Military Commission? Why didn't it send it to Tianjia Town, but directly to us? ”
"Sit down! There is also a telegram from you, which was sent by Deputy Commander Wang Huanzhi from Tianjia Town, using a special code, and we can't translate it......"
The "special code" is a set of special passwords jointly designed by Xu Xinghua and Wang Huanzhi for communication between "hidden" agent members. In this long-distance attack, Xu Xinghua did not arrange a "hidden" agent by Huang Haoran's side, Wang Huanzhi knew this, why did a special code telegram calling Xu Xinghua suddenly appear now?
Could it be related to the telegram from the Military Commission?
With this doubt, Xu Xinghua took the telegram sent to him and opened it, as one of the creators of the "special code", Xu Xinghua did not need to use a codebook to translate this telegram, and the strange symbols in the eyes of others were smooth words in Xu Xinghua's eyes.
"Director Xu... Vice Chairman Wang arrived at the Tianjia Town Fortress Area by plane in the early hours of this morning, and he was ordered to present medals to the generals of the Fourth Corps. Other... I sent a few things from Chongqing last night, and I have handed them over to Adjutant Zhang, who is accompanying Chairman Wang, to take them to Qingshi Town, and you must personally hand them over to the head office, if the head seat has any doubts after seeing it, you can ask him to call me......"
This telegram is even stranger! At present, the center of the Nationalist government is still Wuhan, and the government departments that have moved west to Chongqing, the capital of the country, are just empty shelves, and they do not have the power to give orders to a military general like Huang Haoran. In other words, what was sent from Chongqing should be Huang Haoran's "personal belongings".
But it is such a "private property", Wang Huanzhi actually sent someone to accompany Wang Zhaoming, and its importance can be seen from this!
A "personal belongings" equal to the weight of the vice chairman of the ruling party...! Xu Xinghua couldn't help but feel a little curious......
"Seat, it's noted above, urgent ......"
The officer who handed the telegram to Xu Xinghua saw that Xu Xinghua had not entered Li Pinxian's corps headquarters to report the situation to Huang Haoran after receiving the telegram, so he reminded him in a low voice that this was his duty. Xu Xinghua turned his head and looked at the room behind him, then turned back and shook his head gently, and said:
"The matter in the telegram is urgent... I'm afraid I'm not in a hurry, but I'm going to do things right now... Just assume that we're still on our way to Bluestone and haven't received these things, so let's wait......"
After finishing speaking, Xu Xinghua looked at the watch on his wrist, and the hands showed that it was 6 o'clock in the morning, according to Huang Haoran's battle plan implemented in advance, Qian Guoliang's 99th Division should have started!
Now, it depends on when Li Pinxian's 4th Corps will send troops......
Total seat! Hurry up! (To be continued.) (To be continued.) )
