Chapter 81: The Great Adjustment
9.81 Major Adjustments
After Huang Haoran made a move to defeat Li Yunheng's psychological defense, he didn't need to worry about the rest. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info Fan Jie, who trusted the deputy chief of staff of the Wuhan Garrison Command, was extremely efficient, fully embodying the essence of the idiom "striking while the iron is hot", and it only took half an hour for Fan Jie to help Huang Haoran collect Li Yunheng's confession and incriminating evidence.
Dereliction of duty, corruption, malpractice, passive sabotage, any crime can nail Li Yunheng to death! The senior officers of the 16th Army also suffered along with Li Yunheng, as well as the commander of the 167th Division, Xue Weiying, the chief of staff of the 53rd Division, four regiment commanders under the two divisions, seven battalion commanders, and more than 20 company platoon commanders who escaped from the battle.
Among these people, except for Xue Weiying, the chief of staff of the 53rd Division was ordered by Huang Haoran to be escorted to Wuhan, and the rest of the junior officers were directly sent to the execution ground! After becoming the commander of the Wuhan Garrison Command, Huang Haoran now has the power to cut officers below the rank of major general! After the execution was completed, Huang Haoran handed over the original positions of these soft-footed shrimp in the 16th Army to the original Whampoa officers in the 16th Army and the officers who performed well in the "exercise."
After experiencing Huang Haoran's temporarily planned "exercise", the remaining traces of the Hunan Army of the 16th Army were completely erased and turned into a complete Central Army! It's a pity that the combat effectiveness is still at the second-rate level.
Huang Haoran has his reasons for using such thunderous means against the 16th Army:
First, on the same day that Huang Haoran and his entourage arrived at Madang, Anqing was declared lost! This also means that the Japanese will soon attack the fortress! After witnessing the 16th Army's tofu scum fortifications and slackness, Huang Haoran had no time and drizzle!
And the demonstration to the river defense system and several units newly joined the 25th Group Army is another reason why Huang Haoran is so painful! If you want to lead the Jiang Defense Army and the upcoming large number of Japanese army divisions and regiments to fight to the death, military spirit and morale are indispensable! But Huang Haoran also didn't have enough time to cultivate trust with his new subordinates, so he could only choose the simplest and rude management method to make the people below afraid of him! This is relatively easy to do!
Huang Haoran has only been in office for two days, and he has put three generals in prison, and more than 30 heads have fallen to the ground! If this does not make the generals of the Jiang Defense Army feel frightened and in awe, then it can only be said that the courage of these people is boundless!
Do they have such guts? Huang Haoran had a negative attitude towards this question, although he couldn't see the performance of others, but he was at least sure that Wang Xitao, the commander of the Madao Fortress who was now standing in front of him, did not have the courage to do so.
Because from the moment the gunshots that shot the officers of the 16th Army were shot just now, Wang Xitao's body was trembling.
"Commander Wang, you are more familiar with the personnel here than me, so you might as well let you say a candidate who can temporarily take the position of commander of the 16th Army......"
Hearing Huang Haoran call himself "Commander Wang" and there was no irony in his words, Wang Xitao's souls that flew away finally flew back a little. But after rolling his eyes a few times, Wang Xitao suddenly found that it was best for him not to express his opinion.
At this time, the speech is really a flattering thing on both sides, God knows what kind of mind Huang Haoran has? If Wang Xitao said that he would pick a commander from the old department of the 16th Army, Huang Haoran might suddenly "think" about some of his Wang Xitao's mistakes! If it is suggested that the commander of the Wuhan garrison parachute a military seat to the 16th Army, then Wang Xitao will be equivalent to blocking the road to heaven for the middle-level officers of the 16th Army, and the defenders of the fortress will not want to coexist peacefully with the middle- and lower-level officers of the 16th Army in the future!
Although Huang Haoran is the top boss, it is impossible to stop at the horse yard all the time, and he is desperate with the Japanese, and the defenders of the fortress are really inseparable from the army.
"Such an important position is still appointed by the general seat, and we will implement it as ......"
Wang Xitao deliberately put his posture very low, and desperately made a posture that only Huang Haoran ordered to obey, just to get out of this personnel storm, but what Huang Haoran said next made Wang Xitao have no way out at all!
"Is that what everyone means?"
The question asked by Huang Haoran is actually tantamount to asking in vain, the officers from Huangpu in the 16th Army are still immersed in the joy of turning over and being the master, and have not come out, where will they oppose the opinion of the famous Huangpu general who rescued them from the sea of suffering.
As for Li Yunheng's old department, now these people's minds are full of the joy of escaping death, and in the face of Huang Haoran, who had just executed dozens of their colleagues, they couldn't afford to have any idea of resisting at all.
"Listen to the whole seat!"
Regardless of whether it is from the heart or not, at least this answer can be regarded as unanimous, Huang Haoran nodded, and then said: "It stands to reason that after Commander Li is removed, I should report to the Wuhan Military Commission, and then wait for Shangfeng to appoint a new commander, but at the moment the military situation is really urgent, you may not know that the Japanese have captured Anqing three hours ago!" The horse will soon become the front line! For the sake of the great cause of the Anti-Japanese War, I, Huang Haoran, had to trespass once. I order: Wang Xitao, commander of the Madao Fortress, temporarily assumes the post of commander of the 16th Army, and directs the army near the fortress to cooperate in the operation; The internal defense of the fortress was taken over by Bao Changyi, the captain of the 2nd Brigade of the 3rd Marine Corps! ”
Wang Xitao didn't expect that he would be pushed to the forefront of the conflict between the navy and the army by Huang Haoran when he hid around, but in the face of the great temptation of controlling the 16th Army, Wang Xitao was really a little tempted. And as a Hunan general, Wang Xitao is also relatively easy to integrate into this team from the Hunan army.
So when Huang Haoran's order was issued, Wang Xitao's heart was excited, and he felt that he was a blessing in disguise this time.
In the next few days, the defenders of the fortress began to work frantically, and the Japanese army in the direction of Anqing was motivated to do the 16th Army, and Huang Haoran did not worry about the officers and soldiers of the 16th Army,......
The main force of the Japanese army that captured Anqing was the Hatian detachment under the command of Lieutenant General Hatata Shigeichi, although the Hatada detachment only had three infantry and artillery wings, but all the infantry were elites who had undergone long-term rigorous training in Japan and Taiwan. The whole detachment, from the commander Major General Shigeichi Harata to the ordinary privates, almost all of them were experts in mountain and lake operations, especially in landing operations, which were unmatched in the Japanese army.
When Lieutenant General Shigeichi Harata set off for Taiwan, he proudly declared to reporters: "Although our detachment is at the level of a brigade, its strength is worthy of an elite division of the imperial army. This expedition will allow the corpses and blood of the soldiers of China to prove all this. ”
In the early morning of June 15, the 1st Infantry Wing of Taiwan, the vanguard unit of the Botian detachment, launched an attack on Anqing in a blue-gray twilight. It took only 1 hour to take the Anqing Airport and the surrounding points. The defense system of Anqing, which had been operated by the Wuhan government for more than half a year, collapsed almost instantly, and Anqing fell that day.
