Chapter 10: The Sacking of the 23rd Army

7.10 Sack of the 23rd Army

Liu Zhaomu hesitated for a few seconds, then nodded lightly......

Fan Jie patted Liu Zhaomu lightly on the shoulder, indicating that he had received Liu Zhaomu's reply. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Fan Jie's side finished the work, and Pan Wenhua in the center of the room finally ended his psychological struggle. Pan Wenhua looked at several of his subordinates, and then gritted his teeth and showed Wang Huanzhi:

"Deputy Commander Wang! It's me who is dizzy! Don't be afraid of your jokes, even if the losses of the 145th Division in Guangde are counted, the 23rd Army has only suffered 6,000 casualties! The extra 2,000 people are purely the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain! I also think that Commander Huang will bargain with us! Where would have thought... Commander Huang doesn't bother to deal with a layman like me at all!! I lost my face! No wonder no one else! Brigadier Zhou is right! , if I collect this money, I really don't have the face to be this army commander anymore! Trouble Deputy Commander Wang to tell Commander Huang! , let's just say that our 23rd Army owes him! If you have the opportunity in the future, you will definitely repay it! ”

After finishing speaking, Pan Wenhua bowed to Wang Huanzhi, and his waist was almost broken. Zhou Shaoxuan and Tian Zhongyi also walked quickly behind Pan Wenhua and accompanied their military commander to apologize to Wang Huanzhi. Among the several senior generals of the 23rd Army, only Liu Zhaomu, the commander of the 146th Division, did not act.

Seeing the actions of the senior generals of the 23rd Army, Wang Huanzhi also lost the nature of continuing to crusade against the other party, after all, Pan Wenhua went to Jiujiang on the orders of the Military Commission, and soldiers are not ordinary people, and they cannot be chosen by their own temperament.

Unconsciously, Wang Huanzhi's anger had disappeared for the most part, he reached out to help Pan Wenhua, and then handed the list to Pan Wenhua again. This time, there was no irony in Wang Huanzhi's eyes.

"Thank you, Commander Huang! But this extra part still has to be refunded! Deputy Commander Wang, the actual payment is seventy percent, which is more than enough......"

Pan Wenhua did not refuse again this time, but he insisted on refusing to accept the extra part. Wang Huanzhi was originally a shrewd housekeeper, and now he just got off the donkey and deducted thirty percent of the money.

After checking the number, Wang Huanzhi asked the 99 officers and soldiers outside to unload the money bags from their horses and move them into the house. Seeing the big bag of banknotes, Pan Wenhua was even more ashamed of what he had done before, and just when he wanted to find an excuse to leave the military headquarters, Liu Zhaomu, the commander of the 146th Division, who had been silent for a long time, opened his mouth:

"Throne! I have something to say! ”

The corners of Pan Wenhua's mouth twitched quickly, when he bowed to Wang Huanzhi and apologized just now, Zhou Shaoxuan and Tian Zhongyi were standing behind him, but Liu Zhaomu always stood with Huang Haoran's chief of staff, Fan Jie, and Pan Wenhua had a not very good feeling in his heart at that time.

Liu Zhaomu's sudden opening made Pan Wenhua's anxiety even heavier, since Rao Guohua's 145th Division was heavily damaged by the Japanese army in Guangde, the 23rd Army was left with the 146th Division, the only division-level unit that was still complete. Before Liu Zhaomu's attitude suddenly changed, the person Pan Wenhua was most worried about was actually Zhou Shaoxuan, Pan Wenhua never dreamed that Zhou Shaoxuan chose to stand with him in the end, but Liu Zhaomu was shaken!

Now Pan Wenhua only hopes that Liu Zhaomu has not made up his mind, so that he still has a chance to save the 146th Division! The 23rd Army can no longer withstand such a toss! If two main infantry divisions are lost in a short period of time, Pan Wenhua will simply be demoted to become the division commander!

Pan Wenhua's eyes were full of eagerness when he looked at Liu Zhaomu, he was like a prisoner waiting for the verdict to be announced, every word Liu Zhaomu said from now on would determine the rise and fall of the 23rd Army!

"Master Liu! You and I have worked together for many years, and now it is an eventful time, and I hope that my brother can think more about the past love! ”

Pan Wenhua's words Zhou Shaoxuan and Tian Zhongyi's eyes were red, I really didn't expect Chairman Liu's illness, the generals of the Sichuan army were all moved, and seeing that the mighty Sichuan army was about to be torn apart, Zhou Shaoxuan and Tian Zhongyi's hearts were also very sour!

Who didn't let Sichuan have such a strong figure as Huang Haoran? Once upon a time, Chairman Liu could be counted as half a character, but now, there is not even half of it.....

"Throne! Jiujiang, I'm not going back! I Liu Zhaomu can't do anything to rebel! The 146th Division will never dare to embarrass the military seat, and I hope that the military seat will not embarrass the 146th Division! I, Liu Zhaomu, want to follow Commander Huang to fight Japan! I hope that the military seat and all the brothers will raise their noble hands! The 146th division is out of the house! In addition to guns and ammunition, all baggage and supplies were left to the 23rd Army. Officers and soldiers who are unwilling to go with me Liu Zhaomu can also stay! I hope that Junzuo can treat them well......! ”

Pan Wenhua didn't want Liu Zhaomu to take the 146th Division away, if Fan Jie and Wang Huanzhi were not present, he would have to kidnap Liu Zhaomu, but in reality, there is no if, Fan Jie and Wang Huanzhi are not only in Pan Wenhua's military headquarters, but Fan Jie and Liu Zhaomu have obviously reached an agreement.

As soon as Liu Zhaomu's words fell, Fan Jie stood up to help Liu Zhaomu, and he smiled and said to Pan Wenhua: "Commander Pan! Since Master Liu has his ideas, you can let him go! There is no such thing as an unbroken feast in this world, so many years of brothers, don't hurt your peace when you are coming! Don't you say? ”

Wang Huanzhi walked to Liu Zhaomu's side and stood with Liu Zhaomu, although he didn't speak, but he showed his maintenance of Liu Zhaomu with his actions!

Zhou Shaoxuan and Tian Zhongyi felt very nervous about Liu Zhaomu's words, and the two of them subconsciously stood by Pan Wenhua's side, and a three-to-three confrontation situation was formed in the room.

The expression on Pan Wenhua's face changed, and he still didn't show his attitude for a long time, obviously, he hadn't been able to come to a conclusion about whether to let go of the 146th Division.

The departure and stay of a main division is not a trivial matter, and it is reasonable for Pan Wenhua to think about it for a long time......

"His grandmother's! What the hell is the weather! Old Fan! Third! Are you done? I'll take a look! ”

Suddenly, Shen Yuan opened the door curtain and walked in, a layer of snow fell on Shen Laoer's steel helmet, and it seemed that when Wang Huanzhi and Fan Jie were doing errands, the snow outside was falling again.

Shen Yuanlong's sudden appearance made Pan Wenhua jump! Although he hadn't dealt with Shen Lao Er much, he knew that Shen Yuanlong was the number one fierce general under Huang Haoran! The world-famous 99th Division is Shen Yuanlong as the division commander! What does Shen Yuanlong's sudden appearance mean at this juncture? Pan Wenhua suddenly felt unprecedented pressure!

"Master Shen! What is the wind that blows you? Such terrible weather, are you coming alone or ......"

Pan Wenhua is worthy of being an old Jianghu, he was stunned for a moment and immediately changed to a warm smile and greeted Shen Yuanlong, Pan Wenhua's first few words were purely polite, only the last sentence was what he really wanted to know.

"Lao Tzu's troops are just outside your military headquarters! I'm done! Third! If you're done here, let's go back and get back to your eldest brother! ”

Shen Yuanlong has always been very impulsive when he speaks! Except for his eldest brother Huang Haoran, everyone else is insignificant to him. Shen Lao Er and Pan Wenhua had only met a few times in Huang Haoran's military department before, and they couldn't talk about friendship at all. If the 23rd Army joined Huang Haoran's command, maybe Shen Lao Er could still be polite to Pan Wenhua, but now the situation is indeed that Pan Wenhua's troops are treacherously going to Jiujiang, so Shen Lao Er certainly has no good attitude towards Pan Wenhua!

The speaker has no intention, but the listener has a heart. Shen Yuanlong's evil voice and evil spirit are just habitual, but in the ears of Pan Wenhua, Zhou Shaoxuan, and Tian Zhongyi, it is not the same thing at all!

The 99th Division is just outside the headquarters of the 23rd Army!

And what does the phrase "I'm done" mean? Does it mean that the 99th Division can now attack the 23rd Army at any time?

Pan Wenhua, Zhou Shaoxuan and Tian Zhongyi knew in their hearts that if they were replaced by another Central Army unit, maybe the 23rd Army would be able to resist for a while, but now their opponent is the 99th Division, which even the Japanese feel helpless! It can be said that the 23rd Army does not even have the slightest chance of winning!

Shen Yuanlong's words are a naked threat! He has decided to eat the 23rd Army! If Pan Wenhua did not let the 146th Division leave, the consequences would be unimaginable.......

Pan Wenhua, Zhou Shaoxuan and Tian Zhongyi looked at each other! Cold sweat on my back!

Fan Jie and Wang Huanzhi shouted in their hearts at the same time! The timing of this Shen Lao Er's appearance is really wonderful! Even if you were scared, you scared the 23rd Army to death! This time, the 146th Division didn't run!

In order to prevent Shen Lao Er from saying too much, Wang Huanzhi left Fan Jie and Liu Zhaomu and dragged Shen Lao Er to stand near the door, his move further aggravated Pan Wenhua's psychological pressure! Pan Wenhua, Zhou Shaoxuan and Tian Zhongyi all felt that this was the prelude to the 99th Division!

The local troops and the central arms are combined, whether they win or lose, and those who are unlucky must be the local troops! The highest authorities in Wuhan are waiting for the Sichuan army to make a mistake! As soon as the 23rd Army makes a mistake, the Military Commission will immediately sacrifice the stick prepared in advance! In that case, the day when the 23rd Army will be abolished is not far off!

What's more, before the Military Commission took action, the 99th Army would be able to settle the 23rd Army, and in the end, there would be no scum left! The Sichuan army also had to be charged with creating friction and sabotaging the War of Resistance!

Compromise, now the only way out for the 23rd Army!

After a short discussion, Pan Wenhua made a request to Liu Zhaomu in an almost pleading tone:

"Master Liu! Brother doesn't dare to block your future! It is indeed much better to follow Commander Huang than to follow us! However, the order from the Military Commission was to let the entire 23rd Army go to Jiujiang! The 146th Division was also part of the 23rd Army! You see if it's ......"

"What do you say! Captain Pan! Are you using the Military Commission to suppress Division Commander Liu? I'm not afraid to tell you! The Military Commission also gave our 25th Group Army the power to form a new army! The transfer of the 146th Division to our 25th Army is nothing more than a matter of telegrams! Why don't I go back and let our commander explain it to the Military Commission for you?" ”

Fan Jie decisively interrupted Pan Wenhua's words, he felt that it was time for the end to end! With Shen Laoer's 99th Division pressing the battle outside, how long will it take to not "bully others" now? Liu Zhaomu's troops, the 25th Group Army is about to be decided!

"Chief of Staff Fan, you misunderstood! Misunderstanding!" Pan Wenhua saw that his words angered Fan Jie, and hurriedly waved his hand to explain, and at the same time he noticed that Wang Huanzhi, who was standing at the door, seemed to want to reach out and lift the curtain! Pan Wenhua, who was afraid that the 99th Division would attack him, hurriedly shouted!

"I want Division Commander Liu to only take his troops and leave the number of the 146th Division to the 23rd Army! You also know Chief of Staff! Wuhan has always wanted to reduce the establishment of the Sichuan army, and whether the 145th Division of the Commander Rao can keep the number after losing the battle has to be said, and now if there is no more 146th Division! Holding the 23rd Army, I'm afraid that it will be downgraded directly! The 23rd Army is Chairman Liu's family! Master Liu! Brother Zhaomu! Just for Chairman Liu! Leave the number! ”

In the end, there was already a cry in Pan Wenhua's voice, for Shen Yuanlong's sudden appearance and Fan Jie's sudden strength, Liu Zhaomu obviously wanted to be crooked, and he couldn't bear to see Pan Wenhua so miserable, so he stood up and pleaded with Fan Jie:

"Chief of Staff Fan! After all, they are all anti-Japanese teams! What was lost in this move was the anti-Japanese force! It will also hurt Commander Huang's reputation! I didn't care about being this division commander in the first place! As long as I can follow General Huang to fight devils, I don't care if I am given a regiment commander and brigade commander! Chairman Liu is kind to me! At this time, I can't pit the Sichuan army! The number of the 146th Division will remain in the 23rd Army! In this way, Chairman Liu will recruit some new soldiers in the future, and he will be able to pull up another 146th Division! This is also the last thing I, Liu Zhaomu, did for the Sichuan Army! From now on, I will be Commander Huang's man! I also hope that Chief of Staff Fan, Deputy Commander Wang, and Division Commander Shen will raise their noble hands! ”

Fan Jie glanced at Wang Huanzhi, and Wang Huanzhi nodded slightly. Wang Huanzhi and Fan Jie didn't care about not being able to get the number of the 146th Division, which time did Huang Haoran get the number and establishment from the Military Commission smoothly in the process of forming the 99th Division and the 99th Army? Take Shen Yuanlong's 99th Division as an example, a large unit of two brigades and six regiments like this, in addition to the Central Teaching Corps, there is only the 99th Division in China! The Military Commission actually gave Huang Haoran the power to form the 25th Group Army, a division-level number, is it not an easy thing to do?

But for the Sichuan army, a division-level number is a very remarkable thing! Fan Jie and Wang Huanzhi both felt that this favor could be given to the 23rd Army, after all, maybe the 25th Group Army would have to fight side by side with the Sichuan Army in the future, which was called leaving a line in everything and seeing each other in the future.

"Since General Liu said so, our 25th Group Army naturally wants to give face! Just as General Liu said! Only the officers and soldiers were taken away, and the number of the 146th Division remained! The officers and soldiers who are unwilling to leave also stay! Chairman Liu went out of Sichuan to participate in the Anti-Japanese War, and our commander also admired him! It's all an anti-Japanese team! It's supposed to help each other! Such an arrangement, I don't know if Pan Jun is full of dissatisfaction? ”

Fan Jie's mouth was relieved, and the big stone in Pan Wenhua's heart finally fell to the ground! Being able to keep the number of the 146th Division was already a surprise for him! There is no shortage of men suitable for joining the army in Sichuan! As long as there is a number and establishment, the 23rd Army can make a comeback! The easing of the situation again made Zhou Shaoxuan and Tian Zhongyi also let out a long breath!

"Satisfied, satisfied! Very satisfied! Thank you for putting Fan Chief of Staff! Thank you, Deputy Commander Wang! Thank you, Master Shen! Thank you Liu... General Liu! Since General Liu joined the 25th Army with his troops, is it necessary to reduce the amount of money given to us a little more... The medical expenses and pensions of General Liu's subordinates should be paid by Commander Huang! ”

Pan Wenhua quickly changed his name to Liu Zhaomu, and when General Liu came out of Pan Wenhua's mouth, Liu Zhaomu really felt a little unaccustomed.

Seeing that he and Fan Jie had gained a division from Liu Zhaomu on this trip, Wang Huanzhi was also rare to be generous, and he said to Pan Wenhua:

"That money should be given to the 23rd Army! Without General Liu, Commander Pan will have a place where money is needed! But ......"

Pan Wenhua was just relieved after listening to the first half of the sentence, but Wang Huanzhi's next sentence of "but ......" immediately made Pan Wenhua's heart rise to his throat!

Whether it was a few people from the 23rd Army who reacted strongly, even Fan Jie didn't expect Wang Huanzhi to pop up such words at this time! He hurriedly asked Wang Huanzhi what he planned to do with his eyes, and saw Wang Huanzhi's confident face.

"Deputy Commander Wang still has something to say?"

Pan Wenhua asked Wang Huanzhi how his expression looked like a toothache when he said this! Wang Huanzhi deliberately paused to test Pan Wenhua's nerves, and then he chose to say the next half of the words at the moment before Pan Wenhua's facial muscles were about to start twitching.

"But I hope that Commander Pan will not prevent the officers and soldiers of other units of your 23rd Army from joining General Liu's team, so that our commander's money will not be spent in vain!"

Fan Jie gave Wang Huanzhi a thumbs up very covertly! Wang Huanzhi's hand is ruthless enough! Knowing that Shen Yuanlong was ordered by Huang Haoran to pull people in the 23rd Army, now that Wang Huanzhi has added such an additional condition, Shen Yuanlong's previous small actions have suddenly become the initiative of the soldiers of the Sichuan Army! In the future, the 23rd Army just wants to say bad things about Huang Haoran, and there is no reason to do it!

Fan Jie and Shen Yuanlong grinned at the same time! And Pan Wenhua is about to cry!

Isn't it obvious that the two units of the 99th Army and the 23rd Army are more attractive to the officers and soldiers of the war? Huang Haoran now has the number of a group army in his hand, and some of them are vacant positions! No matter how many officers and soldiers of the 23rd Army there are, he can eat it! After agreeing to Wang Huanzhi's condition, I am afraid that Pan Wenhua's subordinates will have to lose thousands of people!

Wang Huanzhi saw through Pan Wenhua's hesitation, and he very thoughtfully added a suggestion that seemed more reasonable, that is, the time for the 23 officers and soldiers to take the initiative to join the 25 Group Army will end in an hour, and as long as the time comes, Liu Zhaomu's troops will start immediately! Half of the soldiers of the 23rd Army will not be pulled away again.

Pan Wenhua thought about it, even if Liu Zhaomu had influence in the 23rd Army, he wouldn't be able to pull away many people in an hour, so he agreed to Wang Huanzhi's request.

As soon as Pan Wenhua made a statement, Fan Jie and Shen Yuanlong were even happier! In fact, Shen Lao Er was able to come to Fan Jie and Wang Huanzhi, which means that he has already scavenged all the officers and soldiers in the 23rd Army! The hour that Wang Huanzhi is asking for Pan Wenhua is just helping Shen Yuanlong wash away the "stolen goods"! By the way, you can also let Liu Zhaomu take his old troops to grab it in the 23rd Army in the open!

Black! It's just dark at home! Under the influence of Huang Haoran, these old teams of his have completely learned badly!
