Chapter 576: The Wind and Cloud in the Milli State (4)
After staying in the corridor for less than thirty minutes, Shanhu opened the door and walked out, handed a stack of letter paper to Tang Qiuli's hand, Tang Qiuli took a general look, nodded, turned around and walked back to the office, followed Feng Zhi'an behind him, wondering in his heart, what did Captain Huang give to the division commander?
Entering the office, Feng Zhi'an was stunned, Li Zonghan was like a different person, his face was no longer sallow, but pale, his whole body seemed to be soaked with sweat, his tie hung crookedly around his neck, a strand of hair was wilted and glued to his forehead by sweat, his eyes were dull, his gold-rimmed glasses were drooping on his ears, and he looked like he was in a spirited posture.
Tang Qiuli walked in front of him and said in a flat tone: "Mayor Li, there is a lot of disturbance, Tang has taken his leave, by the way, there is one more thing to trouble Mayor Li, my army is in Maozhou, there is not a good day, in the name of the city government, you immediately arrange to comfort Li Zonghan and ask the labor army, so that my soldiers can also eat a good meal and good food, this is not embarrassing for you, right?" ”
Li Zonghan came back to his senses, but he didn't care about his image, he nodded again and again like a chicken pecking rice, "I must do it, I must do it, I am guilty of being lowly and guilty, please Vice Chairman Tang, you raise your noble hand" Tang Qiuli didn't speak, turned around and walked out, in the office, only the lost Li Zonghan was left in a daze, and the qiē just now was like a nightmare, which made him shudder.
Suddenly remembered the task assigned by Tang Qiuli when he left, and hurriedly grabbed the phone and issued a series of instructions, and the subordinate agencies of the city government that received the mayor's order were immediately busy, but everyone wondered in their hearts, when did Mayor Li change his mind, a few days ago he was still shouting that he was going to starve these soldiers, but today he let him send big fish and meat, and the thoughts of being officials, it is really difficult to figure out, I don't understand?
Back at the corps station, Tang Qiuli handed the confession materials written by Li Zonghan to Feng Zhi'an, he just flipped through a few pages, his face changed, and as he expected, behind Li Zonghan, there was really a big man, not someone else, it was Tang Qiuli's sworn enemy, who had been knocked off the horse, but there was still a potential force He Yingqin, who was behind the scenes, and Li Zonghan was just a pawn jumping in the foreground.
This Li Zonghan is a cousin of He Yingqin, and he can get the official position of mayor of Miaozhou, which is also the credit of his cousin He Yingqin, therefore, Li Zonghan always remembers and wants to repay his cousin's kindness.
He used his brains, for Tang Qiuli, He Yingqin hated him to the bone, the reason why he fell to the point where he is today, from a man who calls for wind and rain and controls the political situation of the Republic of China, to the present person who is sparsely deserted in front of the door and is completely marginalized, it is all due to Tang Qiuli, he has never reviewed what he has done.
Therefore, he recruited Li Zonghan to Nanjing, and he was ready to make a big fuss, attacking Tang Qiuli's prestige, and showing the evil anger in his heart.
As long as there is incitement, the people's feelings are like sparks splashed on dry firewood, and a sky-high fire will immediately ignite, He Yingqin is worthy of being a veteran of conspiracy and trickery, he knows how to use the people, his intentions, the best Tang Qiuli's troops, can't stand it, shooting at the citizens, killing people is the most ideal, the more deaths, the better, he will secretly contact some people, impeach Tang Qiuli in the national government, and let him carry a big heel.
After Li Zonghan returned to Haozhou, he acted according to the plan, first let the wind out, did everything he could to slander the Sulu garrison corps, instigated the antagonism between the citizens and the troops, and then fanned the flames to expand the situation, and then, under the pretext of the will of the people, cut off the supply of the Sulu garrison corps, in order to provoke the soldiers of the army and do irrational things, which also conformed to He Yingqin's calculations.
After reading it, Feng Zhi'an was in a cold sweat, it turned out that behind the incident, there was such a deep background, involving the central officials, although He Yingqin is not in his position now, but his relatives and friends, and the party henchmen who have supported him for many years are still there, making a fuss about this matter, the chance of winning is still very great, fortunately, the division commander expected the opportunity to restrain the troops from acting rashly, and personally rushed to deal with this matter, otherwise, he may not have made a big mess, and he himself has become a sinner who buried the troops.
Feng Zhi'an looked at the young division commander with a complicated mind, carefully handed Li Zonghan's confession materials back to Tang Qiuli, and asked, "Master, the matter is very important, and there are too many involved, how do you want to deal with this matter?" Tang Qiu diverted the topic, "Commander Feng, that Li Zonghan should also send something, right?" Had a great dinner tonight."
Feng Zhi'an didn't know the essentials, however, he saw that the division commander was confident, and knew that Tang Qiu had already made a plan, and he was very emotional in his heart, he was over half a hundred years old, and he thought he had a lot of experience, but he didn't see behind this matter, and now it seems that this young division commander is a person who is deeply hidden and has a furrow in his chest, he is not shocked, and he can see through the essence of the incident at a glance, he sighed secretly, he is old, and he has a feeling of heroic twilight.
Li Zonghan really worked hard, and he had already sent a lot of chickens, ducks, and fish, as well as dozens of slaughtered big fat pigs, and truckloads of vegetables and rice noodles.
However, the ground in Maozhou is evil, the quartermaster and the buyers, holding the ocean of white flowers, are stunned that they can't buy anything, those merchants and shops are all of the same caliber, this is for people to eat, not for the defeated soldiers who run away when they see the devil, let alone for the brutes who harm the common people, meat and vegetables are not bought, and when they hear the harsh words, they are angry.
There is no way, I can only go to the countryside to buy some coarse grains and dried vegetables, just deal with the half-starved and half-full, now, as soon as the division commander comes, immediately, the situation will change immediately, the bullshit mayor, personally send things, each company cooking class, show their skills, the smell of meat, permeate the entire camp, the soldiers happily talk and laugh, while swallowing saliva.
Tang Qiuli stood at the door, smiling at these soldiers, in fact, their requirements are very simple, as long as they can eat a full meal, they don't ask for big fish and meat, the soldiers who passed by, when they saw the division commander, they all saluted solemnly, and looked at their division commander with fiery eyes, from their gaze, Tang Qiuli felt a kind of heartfelt respect, and he also returned the salute solemnly.
At this moment, Feng Zhi'an pulled Shanhu aside and asked him quietly: "Captain Huang, I am still confused about something, how did you make that Li Zonghan tell the truth happily, he didn't dare to tell a lie, and he wrote the confession materials by himself?" I think that guy looks like a dead pig who is not afraid of boiling water? ”
Shanhu grinned, and the urn said angrily to Feng Zhi'an, in fact, it was very simple, I asked him to tie him to the table leg, take a grenade and stuff it into his arms, and tie the string with a rope, we hid in the middle and slowly pulled the rope tight, who knows, this guy is very hard, his teeth are very tight, he simply closes his eyes, and he has a love of virtue.
I motioned to a soldier, took out another grenade, pulled the string in front of him, and then stuffed it into his arms, the fuse "snorted" and smoked, this guy screamed, and fainted, and after waking up, he asked what to say, even if he didn't ask, he shook it out, he also carried his wife on his back, raised two little wives, and the public money was not less, which was explained, in fact, it was a stink bomb, and it would not explode at all.
Feng Zhi'an shook his head, sighed again and again, stretched out his thumb towards the mountain tiger, and said: "Captain Huang, absolutely, you have a way, don't beat or scold, this kind of interrogation, I have lived for most of my life, and it is the first time I have encountered it, it is really a strong general and no weak soldiers, and today I followed the division commander, it was really an eye-opener Originally, I was worried that the army would privately torture the current officials, and the lawsuit would go to the Executive Yuan, which would also be a loss to the reputation of the division commander." Shanhu smiled secretly, where is this, if it falls into the hands of Brother Qiuquan, it will be a hundred times worse than this, those people in the special operations detachment, but the veteran of interrogating prisoners, has no mouth that cannot be pried.
The night shrouded the city of Maozhou, it was already more than nine o'clock in the evening, the soldiers who had eaten a full meal went to rest satisfied, the whole camp was silent, the sentinels were vigilantly watching the movements around them, the patrols passed through the camp from time to time, and the whole camp was in a heavily guarded atmosphere.
Only Tang Qiuli was resting in the room, it was still brightly lit, Feng Zhi'an and Shanhu sat aside, Feng Zhi'an waited for the opportunity to report the situation of the troops to Tang Qiuli, the first battle of Shangqiu, the troops were greatly injured, the casualties were close to half, the existing strength was more than 21,000 people, many regiments were incomplete, and the regiment commander also killed several people.
In addition, after arriving in Maozhou, a series of incidents occurred against the troops, and the morale of the army fluctuated, and many soldiers felt that they were very unrushed, because the troops of the 29th Army, many soldiers were recruited in the Pingjin area, and the farther away they were from their hometowns, and they were treated like this but shed blood and sacrificed, and they inevitably felt injustices in their hearts.
However, now it's okay, as soon as the division commander came, he relieved the siege for the troops, and the soldiers had the backbone, and that Li Zonghan personally sent condolences, and when the meal was served just now, I went around everywhere, and the morale of the soldiers was basically restored, and the situation was also stabilized, but there was only one problem, which everyone was concerned about, the troops were reduced so much, would the division seat revoke the number of the Sulu garrison corps and integrate the troops into other corps.
From Feng Zhi'an's words, Tang Qiuli clearly grasped the inner pulse of the original 29th officers and soldiers, in their hearts, they still remembered their old troops, however, Tang Qiuli didn't feel anything strange, that army was the same, when it was first formed, this kind of temperament had been left in the army, no matter what name was used, it could not be changed, especially the old foundation of the 29th Army or the Northwest Army.
How could he not be like this, he often missed the time when the Bloody Hand Regiment was about to talk to Feng Zhi'an in detail, Qiuquan came in, nodded at Tang Qiuli, Tang Qiuli smiled, and said to Feng Zhi'an: "Commander Feng, go and watch a good show with me again"
