Chapter 98: Sichuan Army Oath
Nowadays, the Japanese are already a gambler who loses his eyes in the casino. As long as you can take out the house, your wife and children, you have to gamble on the gambling table to gamble on this last hand in order to make a comeback.
But such news can only deceive the ignorant people at the bottom of the island. After the officers of the slightly higher level of the army knew that the plan to land on Shandong and Jiangsu was stranded, they understood that the Navy had lost. However, due to news and public opinion control, the news of the sinking of the Mu Ao and several aircraft carriers was strictly blocked on the island. There is no Internet that can cross the wall these days. Of course, what is promoted on newspapers and radio is what it is.
Therefore, the atmosphere of invasion on the island is still very strong. Parents send their children to join the army, their wives advise their husbands to join the army, and the teacher encourages students to join the army to join the army and waves of joining the army. Under the description of militarists, the people under the Nanjing government lived a dark day of life without food and clothing (partially caught fire), waiting for the imperial army to rescue them and build a real paradise for the imperial way.
After the declaration of war, it was not only the Japanese who started to act. The day after the declaration of war, Liu Xiang, Liu Wenhui, Deng Xihou and other major generals of the Sichuan Army issued a telegram across the country, announcing that the Sichuan Army was under the control of the central government. The Sichuan Army was willing to send 300,000 troops to fight the Japanese, and 3 million strong men were sent. This number was amazing, and Sichuan, which had the largest number of warlords, dared to say this. Later, Long Yun had only more than 40,000 men under his command, and also announced that he was under the control of the central government.
The first person who tried the crab was always lucky. Nanjing gave the Sichuan Army the numbers 22 and 23rd Army, the Yunnan Army's 60th Army and the 58th Army. The two divisions that left Sichuan in Beiping in the early stage were temporarily organized into the 41st Army of the 22nd Army by Liu Xiang and Deng Xihou. Wang Mingzhang was appointed as the acting commander of the 41st Army and the commander of the 122nd Division, and Tang Ying was appointed as the deputy commander of the 41st Army and the commander of the 136th Division.
When the news came, Song Ziwen had no worries and asked someone to call Jin Batian to go to the headquarters of Wang Mingzhang, the commander of the 122nd Division of the Sichuan Army, and Tang Ying, the commander of the 136th Division, to explain his purpose.
There was news from the Sichuan Army's garrison, and the whole army lined up to welcome him. At the Sichuan Army's oath-taking ceremony in Beidaying outside the suburbs of Peking, Wang Mingzhang said to the military and political team and the Sichuan Army soldiers on the stage: "For more than 20 years, we have beaten me and I have beaten you, grabbing territory, grabbing salt wells, beaten and live in a mess. Even if we die, we are still a mess. Today, our opportunity to atone for sins has come. The Central Telegram ordered our Sichuan Army two divisions to form the 41st Army to go to the Chengde front line to block the Japanese devils. Do you dare to go?"
Countless Sichuan soldiers below raised their guns and shouted: "Dare, dare, dare."
Jin Batian whispered in the audience: "So they can speak Mandarin."
Song Ziwen clapped her hands and said, "Trump."
Then there was the matter of Jin Batian, who was a military officer. When he came, the Ministry of Military Affairs of Peking brought a long convoy. Jin Batian finished speaking and said, "This is the material allocated by the Ministry of Military Affairs of Peking to the 41st Army. There are a total of 1,000 light and heavy machine guns, 200 anti-aircraft guns, 200 mortars, 1,500 boxes of grenades, 200 bottles of Baiyao in Yunnan, 30 tons of biscuits, and 30 tons of cans of various types. Ten trucks of ammunition, please sign for the general."
In addition to Yunnan Baiyao and grenades, even cars and gasoline were produced by Jin Batian. In addition to these materials, the Ministry of Military Affairs of the Peking also gave the 41st Army the power to temporarily recruit men and recruit soldiers in Rehe. Otherwise, the two divisions of the Sichuan Army would not be able to use the guns and cannons added to them.
Hearing that there were so many supplies, Wang Mingzhang bowed to Song Ziwen: "I, Wang Mingzhang, used to be a sinner, and I am ashamed of the country and the people. We are ashamed of these things."
Song Ziwen said: "General, don't blame yourself. The war in Sichuan for many years cannot say who is right or wrong. The task of the 41st Army this time is very heavy. How many days can you block the Japanese in Chengde and how many Japanese can attract them determine the final result of our battle. To be honest, I was not sure to hand over this task to the 41st Army before coming today, but after seeing the new look of the 41st Army, I was sure."
After the Sichuan Army's oath ended, it should have called the Forty-First Army and set off with supplies and set off to Chengde with a strong and angry spirit. Because I was not sure how many of these people could come back, Jin Batian didn't want to know them too much, so as not to be sad. However, within the ability, if you can help, you still have to help. The Ministry of Military Affairs of Peking gave the Forty-First Army, Jin Batian only charged a 50% conscience price (you are still a human).
After watching the long expedition of the Forty-first Army, Jin Batian took a car home.
As soon as he got into the house, Xiaozhu came up and said, "Master, this is what Lao Zhang's son copied back from the stock market today. Also, guests are coming from home."
"Oh?" The stock market is nothing. Jin Batian knew that it was going to fight, so he bought some non-ferrous metals, precious metals, grain, steel, oil, and rubber stocks in advance. He could not sit at home to trade stocks like before, or go to the stock exchange every day. Jin Batian asked someone to copy the stock market news and the rise and fall of each stock as a reference every day. Anyway, even if it doesn't rise now, Europe will fight, and these stocks are destined to rise sharply.
But if you have no relatives or reasons, where did the guests come to visit your home? Those military commanders just want to leave a post or go directly to the Ministry of Military Affairs.
When they arrived at the main hall where they were three times, Jin Batianxin said: Wow, what a big family.
The main hall in the three-entry house originally had a few dozen square meters. It used to feel that it was not small, but now it seems that it is not enough. There are a few more stools in the main hall, but there are still squatting and standing. There are dozens of people inside, men, women, young and old, and some people holding the child, carrying the body, urinating the child, smoking, drinking water, and talking. There are also piles of packages in the corner, and there are no details, but Jin Batian saw it from the outside.
The one who sat on the first two priest chairs was actually an old man and an old lady. She was in her forties or fifties, and her face looked a little older than her actual age.
Mingxi was accompanying her for the next first time, and Xiaoju stood behind Mingxi with a professional smile on her face.
Jin Batian roared in his heart: Who will tell me what the hell is going on? There hasn't been a war yet, my family has become a refugee camp.
Fortunately, this group of people did not let Jin Batian wait for more. Seeing Jin Batian walk into the main hall, they shouted, "Son-in-law is here, and the son-in-law is here." Instead, they gave way to Jin Batian.
Jin Batian was so depressed that he had not even imported the gate of the Civil Affairs Bureau of Peking, so why did he become someone else's son-in-law? Who can explain it to me?
