Chapter 19 Bloody War 7
(Today is the second update, and there will be another update later in the evening. Everyone has votes for it! Thank you, little rider!)
Hearing that the previous openly disobedeance army was still occupying the Peking University camp and the fierce exchange of fire with him, Chiang Kai-shek's eyebrows frowned involuntarily, and he was silent for a long time before he said, "Han Qing! This won't work. There will be a big problem. If we still fight, it is equivalent to giving myself an excuse to expand the incident. You must do everything you can to withdraw this army for me, and you can also declare them to be rebels. In extraordinary times, you should use extraordinary means.
Chiang Kai-shek's words made Zhang Xue's conscience thump. The order of "no resistance" alone has swept away the prestige of the generals at all levels of the Office of the Commander-in-Chief of the Northeast Border Defense Army in Shenyang, and declared the soldiers who stayed in the Peking University Camp as rebels? How will I face the heroes who died in the war? How to face the fierce criticism of public opinion? Sometimes Zhang Xueliang really can't figure out what his brother is thinking in his head. How can Zhang Hanqing take on such a big blame?
Chiang Kai-shek listened to Zhang Xueliang's refusal to say anything, knowing that he must add a fire, and he must not be distracted at the critical juncture of suppressing the Communist Party.
Chiang Kai-shek thought for a moment and continued, "Han Qing! It is said that my interior is not a piece of iron, but our interior is a plate of scattered sand. China's situation is very special. The warlords have been divided for many years. Our slogan of the Northern Expedition was to defeat the warlords. As a result, the small warlords annexed each other into big warlords. They privately recruited troops and collected taxes like a country in the country, and they worshipped the central government. Yang violates, deceives the top and the bottom, and even scrapes the local people to make a living. There is only destruction and no construction. This is the reason why I advocate that we must first settle the inside. Eliminating the red danger has unified the military and political power of the country. We strive to govern. It is not a sentence for you to rejuvenate China! I shouted! Everyone shouts slogans, but action! The country has been weak for a long time. You and I are in a high position. Many times, even if we don't want to, we have to bear the humiliation for the country.
As soon as Zhang Xueliang heard that Chiang Kai-shek had said this, he could not say anything, so he had to respond, "Chairman Jiang, please rest assured that the military and civilians in the northeast should be consistent with the central political axe."
After Chiang Kai-shek appeased Zhang Xueliang with a few words, he repeatedly told him to "handle accordingly"!
After Zhang Xueliang put down the phone, he stood in front of the map and looked at Shenyang silently. Chiang Kai-shek's "corresponding treatment" made it difficult for him to grasp the essentials. Thinking of Zhang Xuewu, who was openly disobedive, Zhang Xueliang suddenly became angry. Zhang Xuecheng was bold enough. He plundered ** and did not kill himself. He is just scrupulous about family affection. When the old handsome man is there, he values family affection the most. He doesn't want others to say that he doesn't recognize his relatives!
Zhang Xueliang looked at the chaotic telegrams on the table. They were basically Rong Zhen, Wang Yizhe, Huang Xiansheng and others who sued Zhang Xuewu, as well as the reports sent by Deputy Chief Tan to the Marshal's Office, the Border Industry, the Bank of China, the Arsenal of the Three Eastern Provinces, etc. Zhang Xueliang was a little confused. What on earth did Zhang Xuewu want to do?
However, Zhang Xueliang is very gratified, that is, Zhang Xuewu's ability is not small! Under the eyes of the commander's office of the Northeast Border Defense Force, when the brigade commander Wang Yizhe, the regiment commander Wang Tiehan and other military chiefs at all levels were present, they actually incited a battalion as the chief of staff of a district regiment to control the commander's office, cut off all external contacts, and then arranged two regiments to put their own eyelids. He rushed to transport materials under him, and then led his troops to stop the enemy from in the Peking University camp. All the arrangements were arranged one by one. It seemed that they had been prepared for a long time, which was really amazing.
However, Zhang Xueliang's most annoying thing is that Zhang Xuewu's relocation of the arsenals in the three eastern provinces was an unprecedented destruction. In other words, he just blew up the Peking University camp, while Zhang Xuewu almost destroyed more than half of Shenyang City.
Zhang Xueliang has a headache about how to deal with this army that violated the military order. Now the eyes of the whole country are focused on the largest conflict between the two armies in recent years in the Peking University. In the face of the people and public opinion in the country to explain the reason for not resisting?
Zhang Xueliang knew that there were a large number of people in the national political axe ready to watch his bustle. He was even ready to be stoned. Zhang Xueliang, who was very tired, sat feebly in the south study and rubbed his swollen temples with his hands! For Zhang Xueliang, the only way is to send someone to Shenyang to withdraw Zhang Xuewu's troops as soon as possible, otherwise the longer the time is delayed, the more difficult it will be to end.
At the same time, Chiang Kai-shek, who stood in front of the window and meditated, received a file related to the incident sorted out by the headquarters of the Fuxing Society. Zhang Xuewu, a name that had made Chiang Kai-shek hate before, entered Chiang Kai-shek's sight. For Zhang Xueliang, who had such a rebellious and rebellious brother, Chiang Kai-shek Using his thinking logic that is different from ordinary people, he said to Huang Feiwen, deputy director of the secretariat who sent the file, "Tell Guofu and Lifu to send people down and think more. I want to know everything about Zhang Xuewu."
At this moment, Zhang Xuewu, who looked at the last ray of sunset, finally made a difficult decision, that is, to leave the green hills without firewood. Before that, Zhang Xuewu had been looking forward to Zhang Xueliang to make decisions and judgments that were different from the known history. When the night fell on the northeast again, all his hopes It seems to be in vain.
If the Northeast Army can rise up, what can the Kwantung Army do with only more than 10,000 people? Can it only be crushed to the point of occupying the important towns along the Manchu Railway? It's simply my wishful thinking.
Zhang Xuewu also once thought of sticking to the Peking University camp alone until the last shot, vowing to resist the invasion of the Japanese army, using blood to set an example for the whole country and awaken the sense of resistance of the nation, but now it seems that this sacrifice is almost meaningless. The vast majority of Chinese people in this era are illiterate and semi-literate. To the extent, patriotism is a very distant thing for the feudal, semi-feudal and semi-colonial people.
This is a numbness that is difficult to wake up by the blood of a few people, a few people, and even tens of thousands of people. Facing the heavy wheel of history, Zhang Xuewu felt his personal insignificance and powerlessness for the first time.
In order to transfer Shenyang's materials, he did not hesitate to lead his troops to fight to the death with the invading Japanese army in the Peking University camp, but the death battle of the Peking University battalion did not make the Japanese army, who was dizzy by fanaticism, retreat. Instead, it made the Japanese Kwantung Army desperate. The Peiping side and Nanjing side still had general hopes on the intervention of the League of Nations in history. Mediation.
The contact with the outside world of the Peking University Battalion was cut off by the Japanese army. Three groups of yellow signal bombs were raised in the direction of the arsenals in the three eastern provinces, which were the signal of the general retreat. Looking at the gradually extinguished signal bombs, Zhang Xuewu's heart suddenly thumped.
"Retreat!" Zhang Xuewu said his decision in the face of Xu Guohui, Wang Chuang and Li Mingtang, who were bathed in blood. Xu Guohui looked at Zhang Xuewu's resolute face and sighed helplessly, "Is the Chief of Staff really hopeless?"
Zhang Xuewu looked at Xu Guohui and others in surprise, shook his head and said, "There will be no reinforcements!" In fact, Zhang Xuewu thought that he had hidden it very well. In fact, the stupidest person was him. Xu Guohui, Wang Chuang, Li Mingtang and others had already guessed his intention!
Zhang Xuewu said with a wry smile, "Since you all knew the consequences at that time, why did you still participate?"
Xu Guohui smiled and looked at Wang Chuang and said, "A man, rich and noble are in danger! If the enemy runs away without farting, I'm afraid I can't forgive myself!"
"It's such a fucking defeat! I'm not willing!" Xu Guohui punched into the soil of the trench, and a piece of shrapnel cut his hand and blood flowed unconsciously.
