Chapter 561 Looking at Nanjing from afar

"The ancient capital of the Six Dynasties, the dragon and the tiger are standing on it" Meng Xiang stood on the Shiling in Pukou, looking at the Yangtze River and the city of Nanjing on the opposite bank not far away, and couldn't help but say lowly. Read the latest chapters of the book

"Commander, so interested," Fan Chong put down his binoculars and smiled. This time, Meng Xiang personally came to the scene of the battle across the river to inspect, which boosted morale and made many people worried.

Tang Yào once advised Meng Xiang not to risk his life and stay in the General Headquarters to command the overall situation.

"Back then, the vanguard army fought in the city of Nanjing, but still did not save the lives of 200,000 Nanjing people, I only hope to go to the vicinity in person, and watch our Chinese army regain the old capital, so as to comfort the souls of the unjust people who have not yet dissipated over the city of Nanjing." Meng Xiang directly suppressed all the opposing voices, and he felt a little ashamed. traveled to this era, but he still watched the scene of more than 200,000 people being mutilated by devils play out again, and he has been a thorn in his heart. Now it was time to counterattack the city of Nanjing, and he wanted to take this opportunity to untie this knot.

"It's okay, the credit for recovering the old capital this time is not easy for others to do too much." Master Tang yào didn't persuade too much, and finally when he wanted to get along with Meng Xiang alone, such a sentence came out, which made Meng Xiang a little crying and laughing.

The credit for recovering the old capital this time is more sensitive than other reconquest records, and generals from all walks of life have come to show their determination to win this honor. The relationship was so complicated that even Wei Han Cháo, the commander of the 4th Army Corps in the northeast, couldn't help but send a letter to remind him.

For this, Meng Xiang has already counted, and without waiting for the princes from all walks of life to make a noise about this, he has already decided on a joint operation of Niu Yi, Rat Yi, and Tiger Yi. For others, everyone may not be convinced, but for these old subordinates who are recognized as Meng Xiang's descendants, others can't say anything. Read the latest chapter of this bookWhen it was in the city of Nanjing, the first to play the banner of the vanguard army was the three people.

Today, the three of them reunited under the city of Nanjing to recover the old capital that they had no choice but to evacuate.

Not only these three people, but also the officers and soldiers of the vanguard army who fought at the head of Nanjing City, but all those who are alive are already in high positions at this time, and the worst ones are also at the battalion and regiment level. Those officers and soldiers who had been rescued from the captives in Nanjing, who had avoided the ghosts at the bottom of the river, and who had joined the army among the refugees, also wanted to return to this place.

"I fought for a long time to catch up with this trip" Lu Shiming was also standing on the Maoshan Mountain of Jintan that he had just occupied at this time, looking at the direction of Nanjing from a distance and sighed, although the fog there was not clear, but he could feel the heavy pressure of Nanjing City in his heart. At the beginning, the troops around him were all gone, and not many were able to escape.

When he thought of that time, he was sad in his heart, but he was also glad that he had boarded the big ship of the vanguard army early.

At the beginning, the vanguard army was just the size of a militia group, and it didn't even have the number of a regular regiment, so it's no wonder that Guo Huaiyu, who escaped from the secret passage with him, didn't want to join the vanguard army, but contacted the Central Army and pulled up the mountain himself.

But now, the vanguard army has become a behemoth that occupies most of China. And because he is considered a veteran of the vanguard army, coupled with his diligent work, after passing the post of chief of staff of the Jiangsu-Zhejiang guerrilla column, he is now the chief of staff of the 2nd Army Corps.

After the reform of the vanguard army corps, the central government also wantonly distributed the titles of the centaur regiments from all walks of life, even if a bandit leader with a few thousand people who occupied the mountain was simply recruited, he might be able to press the title of the last legion. But this is not easy to use in response to the vanguard army's tricks, and in any case, people who know a little bit about current affairs know what the vanguard army means.

Each legion was at least 100,000 jīng rui, which was more powerful than the princes of one side in the past. It was once said that pulling out a random legion of the vanguard army could overthrow the ranks of the previous local warlords to the ground. This is an exaggeration, but a regiment with aircraft and tanks, armed with artillery and mortars, at least a thousand mén, can be swept against the local miscellaneous warlords. Even against the big warlords such as the Shanggui and Jin factions, they can also be opposed.

And even in the corps, there is a distinction between A, B, C and D, the 2nd Army Corps is the second largest army organized by the Vanguard Army, not to mention the ranking that makes countless people taste, there is a mechanized division in each of the three armies under its command, and the corps also directly commands an armored division, which reflects the strength of the 2nd Army Corps.

The 2nd Army Corps has realized the motorization of the entire corps, and it is the first of these corps in the south, and the corps commander is the hardcore descendant of Commander Meng, which also highlights the difference between the 2nd Corps.

In the old belief of some of Lu Shiming's classmates, the highest is only at the level of the Central Army's Hún Division. He was already very satisfied with being the chief of staff of the 2nd Army Corps.

Thinking that Lashantou was defeated by the devils who swept dàng, and ran back to the Central Army at this time, Guo Huaiyu, the deputy brigade commander, Lu Shiming couldn't help but sigh again in his heart.

He didn't know that more than ten kilometers away from him, Hu Lian also sighed.

At this time, Hu Lian also remembered the scene when he fled in Nanjing, and he couldn't help but think of his current identity.

At this time, Hu Lian, who was already the commander of the first army, was also congratulating himself for his original choice. In the fourth phase of Whampoa, there were few people who could hold tens of thousands of heavy soldiers except for one or two in the Red Party. But now there are not too many people in the entire Red Party army, not to mention the difference in equipment. Although Hu Lian's army had not yet been integrated into the corps, the amphibious combat force under his command was much stronger in terms of mechanization and scale than ordinary armies, not to mention the Red Party's armies that could not even muster weapons.

Hu Lian has always been very vigilant about the Red Party, mainly because the Soviet Russia behind them at that time has always been the target of Huaxia's vigilance, and their greed is no worse than that of the Japanese.

But Hu Lian was a little dissatisfied that Commander Meng's policy towards the Red Party was too lenient. In addition to the restrictions on propaganda and some legal provisions, they have not been cleared of their base areas once, and if Hu Lian had not known the information that the vanguard army was going to attack the outside world next, Hu Lian would have thought that Meng Xiang, who implemented the subsistence allowance and various social security systems, was also a believer in Soviet Russoism.

However, he was also relieved in his heart that the vanguard army's subsistence allowance and the successive introduction of various social security systems had left some of the ideas of Soviet Russia without soil, which was also the reason why the vanguard army had completely opened up its contacts with the red sè region, but the forces there had not been sè.

"If you want to be a soldier, you should be a pioneer army" This is already the consensus of the people, that is, glorious, affordable and reassuring, so that a few people are willing to join other teams, and even those hot-blooded young people are also because there is no front line of the Anti-Japanese War in the red sè area to attract, and they are transferred to the vanguard army to defend the country and rejuvenate China. Even more and more people who have broken away from various other forces to join the vanguard army have become a backflow of talents, and the wind is becoming more and more turbulent.

"The three major armies will attack Nanjing together, and Nanjing will be keen," Hu Lian analyzed, and said with a little worry, "It's just that after Nanjing is recovered, I'm afraid some domestic situations will be provoked." At that time, I am afraid that there will be a showdown between the vanguard army and the central army and various forces. ”

"Brother Zuomin, after the recovery of Nanjing, I'm afraid the situation in the country will become clearer," Zhang Lingfu, who was already the commander of the First Army under the 3rd Army of Huyi, couldn't help but sigh to his old superior, Wang Yaowu.

"Some things are going to be clear," at this time, Wang Yaowu, who was the commander of Niu Yi's 1st Army, did not regret that he had taken refuge in the vanguard army. Wang Yaowu's political sense is very sensitive, and he can better understand the future prospects of the vanguard army. Although he was a little embarrassed to turn away from the Central Army, he also understood what the general trend was. Although he was only the commander of an army in the vanguard army, the army under his jurisdiction was an armored and mechanized army, and he belonged to Niu Yi's command, so he didn't feel any grievances.

"I won't participate in such a grand event." However, Wang Yaowu still smiled bitterly, "I once said that I will not participate in the civil war. After Wang Yaowu finished speaking, he suddenly remembered that he had killed in China before, and felt a little inconsistent, so he couldn't help but say again: "I can't do anything about the former Tongze of the Central Army."

"Rest assured that Commander Meng won't let us make a move, and the civil war won't break out." Zhang Lingfu affirmed.

"Huh?" Wang Yaowu looked at Zhang Lingfu in surprise.

"Brother Zuomin, for such a long time, you still can't see through the strength of the vanguard army? If there is a civil war, even according to the strength of the former German armor division of the Central Army, the vanguard army can be easily destroyed. Zhang Lingfu said with emotion, "The vanguard army has long had the ability to unify the whole country by force, but it has been hidden and not released, isn't it just to avoid fighting a civil war and retain strength for China?" ”

Zhang Lingfu has been in the vanguard army for so long, and he has long become the hardcore of the vanguard army, but Wang Yaowu also feels that what he said is very reasonable.

"Therefore, since Commander Meng wants to recover Nanjing, he must have the certainty of peaceful reunification, and even if there is some friction, there will definitely be no big move." Zhang Lingfu affirmed again.
