Chapter 70 Jiang Gong's Decision

When this heavy telegram was sent to Chiang Kai-shek's hand, Chiang Kai-shek's figure shook slightly, and even the telegram slipped from his hand without noticing it at all. As the saying goes, the greater the expectation, the greater the disappointment. China's political axe has great expectations for the fair surname of the League of Nations, and Britain, France, the United States and other countries have also made corresponding commitments. As a result, I met the extremely shameless Japanese book, and I won't play with you! It was said that he gave the League of Nations a fierce slap in the face. It can be said that this slap also woke up Chiang Kai-shek, who had a fantasy about the League of Nations at the same time. It's better to ask for himself than to ask for help!

As long as Rehe can persist for at least three months as Zhang Hanqing said, then he can mobilize the troops of ten divisions from the front line to suppress bandits, and transfer all the troops from Guangdong, Guangxi, Yunnan, Sichuan and Hunan to the front line of North China, and fight a battle to restore the land with him. The loss of land can show the determination of China's national prestige and an inch of land. At the same time, it can also solve the local forces that support soldiers and self-respect in China. If you are defeated, you can also take the opportunity to unify the military and political power of the whole country. Lie on the fire and taste the courage to sharpen a sword for ten years, and bend the bow to shoot the Sirius!

After a while, Chiang Kai-shek, who was a little pale, asked Qian Dajun beside him, "Does the League of Nations have any countermeasures? The plan of sanctions?

Qian Dajun said helplessly, "The League of Nations is still holding a meeting to study specific countermeasures, but the United States, the United Kingdom and France all have huge international trade with Japan. Their trade volume is not below China, and the current world's economy is sluggish. It may be difficult to expect the League of Nations to impose economic sanctions on Japan!"

"Mother's skin!" Chiang Kai-shek slapped the table hard and said, "I am taking our tolerance as a good bully?" Go and invite Dean Song to come here. The army will go first without food and fodder. We can't do anything without him, the God of Wealth!"

Soon, Song Ziwen, who got the news, told Chiang Kai-shek that the national political axe was really out of money. At most, he could only take out four or five million yuan to maintain the situation in Rehe. This money could barely last for two or three months, because the suppression of bandits had consumed a lot of the central government's budget! If the central army of three more divisions is transferred to Rehe to participate in the war, the deficit of the central government will increase. This is only February, and it is still early at the end of the year.

Chiang Kai-shek looked at Song Ziwen, who was frowned, and sighed, "I promised Han Qing to give him the Central Army of six divisions as a reserve. Now with Zhang Xuewu's new first division and three divisions of the 17th Army, there are still two divisions left. I can't disobey my promise in this matter. Han Qing is under more pressure than me. I still have to figure it out."

Song Ziwen spread out his hands and said, "I have no way to think about it. There is no news about the loans of the United States. Let the local government escort all the taxes they owed to the central treasury to Nanjing. Not to mention the two divisions, even 20 divisions can ensure sufficient arrivals to the front line."

After Song Ziwen left, Chiang Kai-shek, who was sad, sighed and came to the map. He was really a hero! For a moment, Chiang Kai-shek sighed. He didn't know whether the Emperor Hirohito in his country was also worried because he could not mobilize the army because he had no military expenses.

Qian Dajun hesitated for a moment when he saw this scene and said, "Chairman, why don't we start a fundraiser?" Just like the previous collection of more than one million yuan for the Northeast Volunteers in Nanjing!"

"Forpture? Is it a cocktail party again? Chiang Kai-shek, who had a plain name and did not like luxury occasions, frowned slightly and said, "In the face of national disaster, as a leader, it is not convenient for me to go in and out of luxury occasions. Let me discuss it with my wife! She is an erist in this field. I can rest assured that the effect will be better if she goes there.

The Japanese army occupied Yuguan and pushed forward step by step, preparing to lead the war to Rehe, which attracted the attention of the people of the whole country. Under the pressure of public opinion at home and abroad, Chiang Kai-shek successively sent Acting President of the Executive Yuan and Minister of Finance Song Ziwen, Minister of Military Affairs He Yingqin, Minister of Foreign Affairs Luo Wengan, and Minister of the Interior Minister Huang Shaohong to Beiping one after another.

In the battle room of the Beiping Army Branch, Zhang Xueliang frowned and stared at the map. The army's large-scale intriment was really too aggressive, which made Zhang Xuewu, who had repeatedly vowed to the outside world to defend Rehe for at least three months, feel a trace of worry, but he had no way out. The three eastern provinces If you lose Rehe now, I'm afraid there is no other place for Zhang Hanqing in China.

Can Tang Yulin and Wan Fulin resist the clamping and attack of the two armies of the Japanese army? Zhang Xueliang hurriedly sent an urgent telegram to Zhang Zuoxiang, asking Zhang Zuoxiang to lead seven brigades of the reserve team to the Rehe to supervise the division. As a result, Zhang Zuoxiang, who received the telegram, was immediately dumbfounded, because at this moment, except for his son Zhang Tingshu's twelfth brigade, the rest of the brigades have not been mobilized. Will the general reserve be used at the beginning of the battle? Zhang Zuoxiang's heart was also covered with an indelible shadow.

In a hurry, Zhang Xueliang had to ask Nanjing for instructions frequently. On the night of February 21st, there were several phone calls and seven telegrams in a row, almost in a begging tone to ask Xu Tingyao's 17th army to rush to the hot river.

Chiang Kai-shek did not know the truth of the Rehe front, but the news brought back by He Yingqin was not optimistic. As soon as I attacked, Zhang Xueliang used the general reserve team? Of course, the disparity between the enemy and our forces is the reason, but there are many hot rivers and mountains, and it is also true that our army occupies the geographical advantage. Don't have another big defeat! Otherwise, neither Zhang Hanqing nor Chiang Kai-shek could absolve himself from the blame in front of the Chinese people, so Chiang Kai-shek immediately ordered Xu Tingyao of the 17th Army to rush to Chengde to gather.

Chiang Kai-shek is very clear that in terms of the transportation capacity and transportation capacity of the railway, it will take at least half a month for the 17th Army, which has not yet been assembled, to reach Chengde. What should we do if there is an irreversible collapse in the war situation in the past half a month? More than 200,000 Northeast troops, together with nearly 50,000 Northwest armies and various departments of the Jin army, a total of more than 300,000 troops! The Central Army of its own four divisions has not been included in it. It seems that there is no need to worry too much about occupying the dangerous terrain defense?

Chiang Kai-shek breathed a long sigh of relief. Although the Feng Department had a very deep contradiction and estrangement with the Northwest Army, the previous melees of warlords were more fierce. For example, the Sichuan Army often dispatched more than 100,000 horses to fight for three months, resulting in fewer than a thousand casualties, but the Feng Army and the Northwest Army really fought. The bravery of the Northwest Army and the Northeast Army Both sides have been injured in the bones of the cannon, and it is also a question whether they can cooperate with each other.

Maybe we can work together in the face of the country's danger, right? Chiang Kai-shek didn't notice at all that he seemed to overestimate the awareness and affection of some generals in the faction warlord army.

After giving orders to the 17th Army, Chiang Kai-shek, who was sleepy, remembered his previous hand to He Jingzhi. The new first division was the only army of the Central Army in Rehe at this moment.

After repeated weighing, Chiang Kai-shek decided to send a telegram with clear instructions to Zhang Xuewu, which could be vague to others, but the new first division under the Military Commission is now a force of the Central Army. How can he sacrifice at will? Moreover, He Yingqin's report said that Zhang Xuewu's ability to train soldiers is indeed extraordinary. New The combat effectiveness of the First Division is not weaker than that of the Eighty-seventh or Eighty-eighth Division. It's a pity that such an army simply sacrifices!
