Chapter Forty-Nine: The Rapid Development of the 25th Army
9.49 The rapid development of the 25th Army
At the staircase on the second floor, Huang Haoran saw Fan Jie and Xu Xinghua, and what surprised him was that Xu Xinghua, a colonel, was actually wearing a lieutenant uniform. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
"What? Did you kid commit an accident at the station and be dealt with? ā
Huang Haoran's question is obviously a joke, Chief Xu Xinghua's secret service is directly under Huang Haoran's secret department, how can anyone dare to play the trick of cutting first and then playing on Xu Xinghua's head?
"I guessed that Commander, you would definitely ask such a question when you saw me, fortunately, you made a heavy bet in front of Commander Shen when you set off, otherwise wouldn't you have missed the opportunity to make a fortune in vain?"
Xu Xinghua still looks that unserious, and I don't know if he was "brought to bad morale" by Huang Haoran, an unserious commander, the core members of the 25th Group Army basically like to talk with a smiling face, which may be one of the characteristics of Huang Haoran's small group......
"Dare to bet Lao Tzu, you and Shen Lao Er's courage seems to be good......" Although Huang Haoran said very seriously, the smile on his face betrayed his true attitude.
The days spent in Wuhan against a large number of government bureaucrats can suffocate Huang Haoran, and now he is naturally very happy to see a few of his henchmen, where would he really care about the absurdity of Xu Xinghua and Shen Yuanlong gambling with him.
Although Huang Haoran did not continue to ask, Fan Jie still took the initiative to say the reason for Xu Xinghua's dress. It turned out that since Huang Haoran came to Wuhan, his small group would spontaneously hold a small meeting every night after the telegram with Huang Haoran to analyze Huang Haoran's situation in Wuhan. After learning that Huang Haoran was dismissed from office by the highest authorities and trapped in Wuhan, Wang Huanzhi, Shen Yuanlong, Fan Jie and others all felt that Huang Haoran might be in danger this time!
So after some discussion, Fan Jie and Xu Xinghua respectively came to Wuchang with a group of "hidden" agents and two guard companies to support Huang Haoran. Wang Huanzhi, Shen Yuanlong, and Xie Wendong, who stayed at the station, took the courage to take care of the home.
This is a typical "one bright and one dark" configuration, the two guard companies that Fan Jie took were just to hide people's eyes, and what really was of great use to Huang Haoran was actually Xu Xinghua and his group of men who were hiding in the shadows!
The mobile force of these hundreds of people came too soon! Originally, because the guard company brought by Xu Zilong had to serve as Huang Haoran's guards and carry out the special tasks assigned to them by Huang Haoran, the allocation of manpower was actually a little unsustainable. This is also one of the important reasons why Xu Zilong has not been able to find out anything from Dai Mengru so far!
"The two guard companies entered the city in military uniforms?"
Huang Haoran suddenly remembered a problem, that is, the current three towns of Wuhan are actually the wartime capital, and the Military Commission strictly controls the number of garrisons in the inner city of Wuhan. With the rank of lieutenant general of the Huang Haoran Army, he can only bring a maximum of two companies of guards with him, and a major general officer can only bring one platoon of guards. If the troops brought by Fan Jie were all in the city in military uniforms, then the troops brought by Huang Haoran would have exceeded the standard!
At present, people from all walks of life are holding magnifying glasses to find Huang Haoran's fault, and I heard that even the matter of setting up a banquet in Wucheng in 1933 to receive gifts was defined as the crime of "blackmailing the squire and looting places" and put on Huang Haoran's head. "Violation of garrison control" At worst, it is said that there is no military discipline, and at worst, it is suspected of rebellion! How could those people let go of such a sensitive issue?
Although he knew in his heart that he would definitely be in danger this time, Huang Haoran didn't want to put a tight spell on his head!
Fortunately, it was Fan Jie who brought these two guards into the city, and this "cunning fox" had already prepared.
"Don't worry! Commander! There was only one company in military uniform, another company was in civilian clothes, and the guns carried by the agents under Director Xu were also brought into the city by the troops. Where can the soldiers be without guns and the common people? Our simple move of 'separating man and gun' has bypassed the ban issued by the Military Commission......"
Fan Jie's words are true, isn't an army without weapons just a group of disciplined people? "Man-gun separation"? It's a fucking good idea!
"It deserves to be my chief of staff Huang Haoran! Well done! Huang Haoran gave Fan Jie a thumbs up, and then said with a smile: "Actually, this ban issued by the Military Commission this time is quite reasonable, but it only restrained my hands and feet, so I had to violate the ......."
Fan Jie and Xu Zilong agreed very much with what Huang Haoran said, and nodded in agreement, how can there be hundreds of generals living in the three towns of Wuhan now, even according to the lowest rank of major general, there must be tens of thousands of guards around these generals! In addition, the guards of the government departments, the army of the Wuhan Garrison Headquarters, and the military police units that maintain order in the city are really overcrowded! Walking on the street, you can see soldiers carrying weapons mixed among the common people at any time, especially in several core areas of Wuchang Town, where there are many government departments, and the ratio of soldiers to civilians on the street is close to 1:1!
If you think about it carefully, if the Military Commission hadn't issued this ban before, the three towns of Wuhan would have turned into a huge barracks long ago!
"Captain Xu! I'll hand over this company brought by Chief of Staff Fan to you too! In the future, the work of the guards will be handed over to you, and you can transfer other things to Director Xu! ā
"Yes! Commander, mission completion guaranteed! ā
After arranging Xu Zilong's side, Huang Haoran began to give Xu Xinghua a task, spying on intelligence was not Xu Zilong's specialty, and investigating things like Dai Mengru and Fang Xiaoqian should still be handed over to Xu Xinghua's secret service!
"If that's the case, these two women are really interesting......" Xu Xinghua is worthy of being a professional conspirator in the 25th Group Army, after listening to Huang Haoran's introduction to Dai Mengru and Fang Xiaoqian, Xu Xinghua immediately made a judgment based on his intuition: "Commander, you just said that the female reporter and Miss Fang beside him rushed out of Nanjing, and then came to Wuhan after a large area of the occupied area. I'm afraid that these two women have something to do with the Japanese......"
The inference made by Xu Xinghua is basically consistent with the answer guessed by Huang Haoran in his heart, so it seems that he has found the right person by handing over this matter to Xu Xinghua. Huang Haoran smiled and said to Xu Xinghua: "I don't care what you want to check, give you 48 hours, and I'll ask you for the answer when the time comes!" ā
"Enough is enough......" Xu Xinghua's words are conceited enough, but it also sounds uplifting!
At present, it is still in a period of war, and then the topic between Huang Haoran and Fan Jie returns to the current situation and war. Xu Xinghua and Xu Zilong saw that the matter they were talking about was beyond their jurisdiction, and after glancing at each other, they stepped aside and began to exchange information about Dai Mengru and Fang Xiaoqian.
"Although I can see the figures and lists of Soviet aid received by the troops, I cannot see the situation of the troops' training. No matter how good a weapon is, it still has to be used by people! How is the situation of the troops now? ā
Huang Haoran is now anxious to know whether the large amount of Soviet-style equipment he got from the Soviets for the 25th Army has been effective. Before the arrival of this general battle in Wuhan, he had to seize the time to enrich the strength of the 25th Army, so that he could have the capital to create another miracle!
Although the yellow flood area formed by the release of water at the mouth of the garden blocked the Japanese offensive in central China, the fighting on other battlefields was not affected. Generally speaking, apart from the recent war between Japan and the Soviet Union, which can be regarded as a good thing, basically bad news has come from all sides that some Chinese troops have been defeated in front of the Japanese army.
If you want to be tough in front of Little Japan, you have to rely on your strength to speak!
"The Soviets' delivery is very timely, at present, Shen Yuanlong's 99th Army has been completely mechanized, Wang Shankui's 100th Army is a little slower, only about half of the reequip, but we have begun to exchange the weapons in stock with the Soviets, and the weapons obtained in the follow-up should be enough to supply the other half of the 100th Army to reequip. Only the size of the artillery regiment and the tank unit is somewhat uncontrolled, and according to Shi Cannon, he is now the commander of the artillery brigade......"
mentioned the training situation of the 25th Group Army, Fan Jie's mood immediately became high! Among the troops participating in the defense of Wuhan, the 25th Army had quite sufficient time to recuperate. Since Hubei has always been the source of high-quality soldiers, and the 25th Group Army is a "winning army" with a golden signboard, the shortage of soldiers in the army was almost filled with effort! In order to receive too many high-quality soldiers, in the end the 25th Army had to come up with a temporary number like "Supplementary Regiment".
Hearing that his capital had become strong again, Huang Haoran's face smiled even more. The 99th Army's redress will be completed earlier than the 100th Army, such a small episode is something Huang Haoran expected, because the Soviet aid materials obtained were uniformly transported to the 25th Group Army station, Wang Shankui, an honest man, of course can't rob Shen Laoer, a bandit.
The 99th Army and the 100th Army were fully equipped with 70,000 or 80,000 horses, and the Soviet aid received from the Soviet ambassador was able to arm the two armies, and Huang Haoran was already satisfied!
"Is the exchange of supplies with the Soviets still going well? Although I am no longer the director of the 'Receiving Aid Office'. But he can still talk to the Soviet ambassador, and Lao Maozi is not a good bird, if you have any trouble, just tell me!"
Huang Haoran didn't forget to give Fan Jie a reassurance, he said this to tell Fan Jie not to have any scruples when trading with the Soviets, and to take advantage of what he can take! After all, in the next few years, it will be difficult to find such a whole batch of equipment to redress the 25th Army!
"Commander, to tell you the truth, there is a thorny problem at the moment, although we exchanged the old equipment in our hands for a lot of heavy weapons of the Soviets according to your instructions, but after all, it is more for less, and now we don't have much to exchange with the Soviets, I tried to exchange with the Soviets with the Japanese tanks and artillery in my hands, but they didn't buy it......"
