A quiet official residence in a mountain city!
"Wang Ni deserves to die! He will definitely become the sinner of our Chinese nation for eternity." The man in green robes angrily threw a teacup on the floor.
Facing the wrath of the middle-aged man in robe, the two middle-aged men standing in front of him remained silent and did not say a word.
Even though one of them is this person's 'think tank' and the other is this person's hands and eyes, this incident still far exceeded their expectations, especially the stocky middle-aged man in charge of the intelligence system. When he lowered his head, he secretly glanced at Chen Zhitan beside him, full of messages for help.
The Japanese instigated rebellion this time in an extremely secretive manner, completely hiding it from the eyes of him, currently China's top intelligence chief, which led to the defection incident that shocked the country. To a certain extent, he cannot escape the blame.
"What do you military commanders do for a living? There's no news about such a big event, so what's the use of you?"
Sure enough, seeing that his subordinate remained silent, the still furious middle-aged man pointed his finger at the bitter-faced middle-aged man with thick eyebrows and big eyes.
"I deserve to die, it's all my fault!" The middle-aged man with thick eyebrows and big eyes knew his boss's temper. He didn't explain, he just admitted his mistake.
"Of course you deserve to die. A dignified member of the Government Affairs Council has actually defected to the Japanese. Do you know how much of a blow this has to our morale in China? How will those Westerners who have just changed their attitudes see our jokes?" the middle-aged man said softly. The voice was a little sharp because of anger.
The veins in the hand holding the civilized stick popped out. You can imagine how hard this incident dealt a blow to this man.
"In this world, you can only be a thief for a thousand days, but there is no one who can guard against a thief for a thousand days. A thief like Wang Ni is born to obey the bandits. If he doesn't obey today, he will obey in the future. It's just a matter of time."
Speaking of which, we have to thank Wang Ni for choosing this node.
Perhaps the Japanese have their own plans, hoping to use this matter to cover up their shame of the defeat at the Battle of Zhongtiao Mountain, and also to add some trouble to China's upcoming New Year, but for us, this time is not At a time when the military and civilians across the country are inspired by the victory in the Battle of Zhongtiao Mountain, this incident will not only affect the morale of the entire country, but will also arouse hatred for the defectors.
Wang Ni and the Japanese made a wrong calculation! "The middle-aged man with an elegant look finally spoke.
The middle-aged man in robes showed thoughts in his eyes, and his tone became lower: "Can you tell me how we should handle this now?"
"First of all, in terms of publicity, all the major officials and generals of our army need to publish newspapers to draw a clear line with this traitor and denounce the behavior of several ancestors who have forgotten the scriptures; and also issue a reward notice for anyone who kills Wang Ni and his followers. The government will heavily reward those who rebel, no matter where they are.
Secondly, we are taking this opportunity to vigorously refute some existing capitulationist views and cleanse them." The elegant middle-aged man's eyes flashed with fierceness.
"Very good, Yanji, your suggestion is very popular with me, so I'll leave this matter to you two." The middle-aged man in the robe nodded, looking at the thick eyebrows that were already covered in cold sweat with a somewhat cold gaze. On middle-aged people. "I leave this matter to you. Please don't mess it up for me anymore. If you have any questions, please ask Mr. Chen for advice. Just go!"
“Yes! Yes! Students resign!” The thick-browed middle-aged man turned around and left as if he had been granted amnesty.
It wasn't until there were only two people left in the small hall that the middle-aged man in the long robe softened his expression and took a few steps back and forth: "Yanji, in two days I intend to ask you to go to the Second War Zone to award the award on my behalf. , what are your opinions and thoughts?”
"The Commander of the Second War Zone has a lot on his mind! Especially in the last battle at Zhongtiao Mountain, Tang Dao led more than 7,000 people to assist the 46th Independent Brigade at Jiulong Mountain. Without his secret instructions, I am afraid that Tang Dao would have acted rashly. It won't be so obvious." The elegant middle-aged man pondered for a moment and said bluntly.
"This person is far more clever than great. How could he not know that I can't see the little tricks he plays? But he still did it, just to remind me that he may not be as good as me in many aspects, but in his territory On the other hand, he can still influence some things.
It's just a way to show me that he is definitely not someone who can be manipulated by me, and with the blessing of great merit, it is concluded that I dare not do anything to him.
It's funny to say that he still doesn't even understand his old enemy. In such an emergency, how could I be as narrow-minded as him? "The eyes of the middle-aged man in long robes were full of ridicule.
“So he can only sit in a corner and be his grass-headed king. He is not qualified to lead the entire China to resist the invasion of foreign invaders.” The elegant middle-aged man said.
This sentence is obviously meant to belittle the stingy old man, but it is the highest level of flattery in the world. If you really praise someone, his face will visibly improve.
Because, that is the hat he most wants to wear.
"However, I am afraid that the Ministry of Military Affairs still has to guard against his attempts to win over the Four Lines Regiment. Tang Dao is indeed a rare warrior. He can withstand the Japanese attack in the two battles of Tongguan and Zhongtiao Mountain. "It has nothing to do with him." Seeing that the man's mood improved, the elegant middle-aged man finally expressed his worries.
"Tang Dao has a deep heart!" Mentioning Tang Dao's name, the middle-aged man in long robes gently put his civilized staff on the ground and cast his gaze into the distance. As gloomy as the sky, a feminine voice came: " Except for the war against Japan, his position is uncertain and no matter how strong his combat capabilities are, he cannot be reused."
“However, we must not push it to some people with ulterior motives. By the way, tell me how to deal with it?”
"I understand what you mean. This is what I think. Didn't Commander Yan blatantly sell it to Tang Dao and the Four Elements Group? He even didn't hesitate to apply for the Blue Sky Medal for him. Then we will do as the commander wants, He was awarded the Medal of the Blue Sky.
The Commander of the Fourth Group Army, the Commander of the 38th Army, the Commander of the 93rd Army, and the Commander of the 46th Independent Brigade were all awarded the Medal of Blue Sky. The other major group armies, including the armies, divisions, and brigades that participated in the Battle of Tongguan, were awarded the Medal of the Blue Sky. All general officers were awarded the Medal of Baoding. "The elegant middle-aged man talked eloquently.
"Okay! Just follow what you, the imperial envoy, say!" The middle-aged man in long robes has been in the political arena for many years. How could he not instantly understand the meaning behind his own words as a think tank?
Since the commander of the Second Theater Command blatantly wooed Tang Dao and the Fourth Army, it was just as he wanted, but he gained sesame seeds and lost watermelon.
There are five armies stationed in Zhongtiao Mountain. They tried their best in this battle. In the end, only the 4th Army and Tang Dao won the Blue Sky Medal, but they could only start with Baoding. How could they not feel resentful?
Just because of this, the commander of his second war zone would never be able to successfully mobilize the hundreds of thousands of troops, and the Fourth Army Group and the 4th Army Group would not necessarily listen to him, not to mention the 80th Army Group in the Taihang Mountains. , people have their own set of command systems.
I am afraid that after the battle of Zhongtiao Mountain, the most injured person was Commander Yan who sent a message of victory to the whole country.
“I heard that the Japanese army was defeated in the southeastern part of Shanxi this time. I'm very frustrated! The hidden strength of the Eightyth Army and the Fourth Army Regiment far exceeds the enemy's estimate!” The voice of the middle-aged man in robes became deeper.
"The 80th Group Army has been vigorously developing militia organizations since it crossed the Yellow River and entered southeastern Shanxi. Although it has a lot of manpower, it has never been able to replenish its ordnance. I heard that many troops have two or three people with one gun, and many soldiers even carry red tassel guns with them. Go out to fight." The elegant middle-aged man did not follow the man's words this time, but spoke bluntly.
"Hmph! That's what they asked for. They don't have the strength but they still want to make a fool of themselves. They are not even satisfied with staying in southeastern Shanxi. They entered northwest Shanxi, northern Hebei, southern Hebei, and Shandong under the guise of resisting Japan behind enemy lines. I think they must have a plan!" The middle-aged man in the robe poked the ground hard with his civilized sword, and his voice became a little louder.
The elegant middle-aged man obviously understood this person's thoughts very well. Although he was highly regarded by this person and was willing to use all he had learned, he did not fully agree with his mentality of preventing the Eighty-Fifth Army from defeating the Japanese invaders.
The elegant middle-aged man knew that the man in front of him was far less broad-minded than he showed, and that frontal persuasion would only be counterproductive. He turned his eyes slightly and said: "The North China battlefield is also the most important battlefield in our country. We must not let the Japanese The North China Front Army has completely established its foothold, otherwise our South China, Southwest, Northwest and other areas will be attacked by the Japanese invaders on two fronts, allowing the Eighty Group Army to fight with the Japanese invaders in the Japanese-occupied areas, just like wolves and tigers fighting, no matter who wins or loses, for On the frontal battlefield, there are only advantages and no disadvantages.”
"Yanji, your idea is in line with the ideas of many people in the government, but you all underestimate that teacher. You don't understand!" The middle-aged man in the robe sighed slightly, but took the initiative to change the topic. "But the Four Elements Group also followed their lead. This is not okay. Without rules, there will be no fangyuan!"
“Do you still remember the false title of deputy director of the Jinan Office that was promoted to Tang Dao last time?” The elegant middle-aged man asked rhetorically.
"What? There's already a candidate for the director of the Jinan Office that you're looking for?" The middle-aged man in the robe instinctively reflected what his think tank wanted to say.
"Yes, this person is the same year as me. He served as the director of the Songjiang Administrative Office and the county magistrate of Songjiang County during the Songhu Battle. He also participated in the defense of Songjiang and won the Baoding Medal. He also has a certain friendship with Tang Dao. It is the best choice for him to go to southern Hebei. It's more appropriate." The elegant middle-aged man replied.
“Okay, you can arrange a time for him to come see me, and I'll have a talk with him!” The man in the robe nodded slightly. "As for the overstaffing issue of the Fourth Army Regiment, if you asked the 22nd Army and the Fourth Army Regiment to self-examine, they would not dare to object in normal times, but this time coincides with the victory of the Battle of Zhongtiao Mountain, some people may Use this to write some articles.
Simply by Tang Dao, when he officially became the deputy director of Jinan, he separated the Si Xing Regiment from the Sichuan Army, placed it under the direct jurisdiction of the Second War Zone, and gave it a special forces regiment! "The elegant middle-aged man suggested.
"Special regiment? Is it the infantry regiment under the Tax Police Corps?" Upon hearing the completely opposite advice given by the think tank, the man in the robe was neither surprised nor angry, with thoughts in his eyes.
Nowadays, there are three types of infantry regiments under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Military Affairs. One is the type regiment, with an establishment of 3,000 people; the other is the B-type regiment, with an establishment of 2,000 to 2,500; and the third is under the jurisdiction of the Tax Police Corps. of special teams.
This special regiment is a special product of a special era. An infantry company has 252 officers and soldiers, twice as many as an ordinary infantry company. An infantry battalion has three infantry companies and one with 12 heavy machine guns and 2 82-force machine guns. company, with a strength of 1,066 men.
In addition to commanding 3 infantry battalions, the entire special forces regiment also has an artillery company equipped with 4 75mm mountain guns, 6 20mm machine guns, 6 82mm guns, as well as a special agent company, an engineer company, a baggage company, a communications company, and a medical company. There are 7 directly affiliated companies, and the total number of personnel in the regiment is 5,065.
With this knowledge of his own think tank, he certainly knew that he would not try his best to legalize the Si Xing Tuan's overstaffing even though he was dissatisfied with it. He naturally had other intentions.
Soon, he understood what the think tank meant.
Separating the Si Xing Regiment from the Sichuan Military Department and placing it under the direct control of the Second War Zone, first of all, it broke the foundation that the Si Xing Regiment originally relied on. Tang Dao got too close to several of the veteran generals of the Sichuan Military Department, and although that group of people None of them are timid when it comes to fighting, but none of them are loyal to his side. They are all troublesome old foxes. If Tang Dao, a little fox, is added to the mix, when the war situation stabilizes in the future, it is very likely that The trend is that the tail will not fall.
Separating them now will only eliminate future troubles.
And this result is not what the apparently shrewd but actually stupid commander in the second theater wants most? If he wants it, give it to him. Under today's general trend, if he wants to take back his power, isn't it just a matter of one sentence?
This move alone is already a win-win result, but the think tank's plan is more than just this.
Tang Dao has made a great contribution this time. It is absolutely unjustifiable not to receive a reward, and it cannot be solved with a Blue Sky Medal. This has been given to the special forces, but it is a huge reward. No one can use this to say that the Military and Political Department is jealous of talents. .
Of course, blocking everyone's mouths is just a trick. What's more important is that the Eightyth Army has regular troops entering northern Hebei, southern Hebei and other Japanese-occupied areas, and is vigorously developing the war of resistance behind enemy lines. Now Tang Dao is in southern Hebei. Deputy Director of the Office, the troop establishment has been expanded, so it is natural that we have to march to that area.
How could the Eightyth Army be willing to give up the territory it had spent huge amounts of manpower and material resources on? And with Tang Dao's tough style, there will definitely be disputes.
Having said that, if the two armies are in peace, it may be possible to further clarify Tang Dao's position, which will only be beneficial to future battlefield layout.
No matter how powerful the Four Lines Regiment is, it is just an infantry regiment. For the overall situation, it is just a wave in the waves of the sea.
This seemingly small staff transfer has almost perfectly solved many hidden dangers. The man in the robe looked at his director of the attendant room, how could he not be pleased?
"Okay! It's up to Yanji and you to talk to Minister He personally about this. However, the emperor is not short of hungry soldiers. When you go to the second theater this time, you should bring with you at least two months of military expenditures of each ministry to avoid being said by the frontline soldiers that the government is stingy.
The rest of the armies are calculated according to the usual military expenditures, plus a reward of 100,000 French currency for each group army. Since the establishment of the Four Lines Regiment has increased, military expenditures will be allocated according to the new increased establishment. In addition, Tang Dao was told that he was newly the deputy chief officer and deputy commander of the first place. Military Chief, I will allocate 200,000 special administrative funds for him! But he must promise me that if he leads the Four Corps to achieve new achievements, the country will never treat him poorly. "The man in the robe arranged.
“Yes, I will definitely bring you your original words.” The elegant middle-aged man nodded and bowed to leave.
On February 11, 1939, the Lunar New Year in northern China, a special plane arrived at the airport on the outskirts of Chang'an. The commander of the Second Theater Command, the stingy old man, led a group of generals to personally greet him at the airport.
Not only did the 'imperial envoy' come, but there were also millions of random legal tenders.
That was the military expenses and bonuses for hundreds of thousands of officers and soldiers on the front lines of the Second War Zone and the Tenth War Zone. It was not about the Buddha's face but also the money. The commanders of several major group armies were all present, which gave him enough face.
In the snowy night!
Tang Dao and Brigadier Cheng were sitting by the stove roasting sweet potatoes.
"Director Tang, congratulations! I heard that your Four Elements Group not only had a special group this time, but also received a special fund of 200,000 French currency for free. Gee, as soon as I heard the news, I came to fight the local tycoons. In the end, you, a rich man, use this to entertain me, your brother?" Brigadier Cheng shook the dark sweet potato in his hand at Tang Dao and asked teasingly.
"One hundred thousand!" Tang Dao said without raising his head while nibbling sweet potatoes.
“What?” Brigadier Cheng Da was stunned for a moment.
“Half of it when we meet, is this enough for brothers?” Tang Dao raised his head and grinned.
"No, no, this is not right, your child, it is too abnormal." Brigadier Cheng Da shook his head. "If you have any questions, just say it. Don't give me candy first. Let me see if I can bear it first."
This is really unreasonable.
But this is very Tang Dao!
Tang Dao's smile became brighter and brighter. He reached out and groped in his arms for a while, and took out a red invitation.
Brigadier Cheng Da opened the invitation nervously.
It would be a lie to say that I am not nervous. After all, Tang Tuanzuo said one hundred thousand before getting the invitation. So what do you think you can write in the invitation?
“I'm getting married, and my wife is Tantai Mingyue. I specially invite Brother Cheng to come to my humble residence. If you're rude, don't come!”
At first glance, there are two lines of calligraphy written by Tang Dao personally, with the characters of chicken claws scratched, and the strong smell of Tang Dao hits the face as the invitation is opened.
“Everyone else's invitations were written by Tantai, but I wrote them today for you, Commander Wang, and Commander Zhao.” Tang Dao looked like he was going to thank me.
“I! I know your child is not good-hearted. Haha, but I will give you this gift even if you sell iron.” Brigadier Cheng laughed.
This should be the best news that the brigade commander has heard in the past month or so.
With sweet potatoes and peanuts, looking at the falling snow outside the window, the two men actually drank all night.
Thousands of miles away, the two men racked their brains and calculated all morning, forming an extremely sharp contrast.
