When Xu Shijiu walked into the 58th Division headquarters, Feng Shengfa was sulking.

At this time, it was two days since the battle in Fengxian ended. The main force of the 58th Division also successfully retreated from Fengxian to Dangshan. The division headquarters also moved from Liukou Township to Zhaotun near Dangshan Station. Although the 174th Brigade participating in the battle suffered heavy casualties, the base of veterans was still there. Many minor wounded soldiers could return to the team quickly after taking a break. Moreover, the 58th Division was well captured in Dan County. As long as the Corps headquarters could replenish new recruits in time and train a little, the troops would soon recover their combat effectiveness.

However, the battlefield in Dangshan was tight, and the current situation was no longer allowed to retreat to the rear and rest.

However, Feng Shengfa was not angry because of this. What made him angry was a call that Yu Jishi had just called. On the phone, Yu Jishi informed him of a message saying that Gui Yongqing had sued him at Chairman Jiang, saying that he was arrogant and arrogant, greedy for merit and rash, which caused the entire Dangshan war situation to be tight, and the commander-in-chief had determined to send someone to investigate the matter.

Feng Shengfa became angry as soon as he heard this. Before he could settle the accounts with Gui Yong, Gui Yongqing complained first.

What made Feng Shengfa even more angry was that Chairman Jiang really wanted to send someone to investigate. Such a matter of confusing black and white and confusing right and wrong, he actually wanted to send someone to investigate. What is there to investigate? Is he really a arrogant and arrogant person? Are all the senior generals on the front line all fools? If Fengxian was not really empty in the garrison, these commanders, commanders of the army, and commanders in chief of the corps would believe his division commander? It was a big surprise in the world.

Seeing Feng Shengfa's face was tense and he didn't say anything, Xu Shijiu couldn't help but smile and said, "Master, you don't know who Gui Yongqing is. Like Sun Yuanliang, he is a greedy person and fears death. He escapes at the last minute. He is angry with such a person. Besides, the Military Commission will really send people to investigate. Can it be turned into black and white?

"That's not sure." Feng Shengfa sighed and said, "In the battle of Nanjing defense, Gui Yongqing, like Sun Yuanliang, left his troops and crossed the river alone. But why was Sun Yuanliang dismissed and investigated, and Gui Yongqing was promoted from division commander to army commander? To put it bluntly, there are people in the central government, and He Yingqin is in-laws with him."

Xu Shijiu said: "He Yingqin's high position and high power will not affect Chen Cheng, right? It seems that Chen Cheng is responsible for the investigation this time?"

Gui Yongqing said: "You don't know this. Although He Yingqin cannot affect Chen Cheng, the relationship between Chen Cheng and Gui Yongqing is also extraordinary. In the 19th year of the Republic of China, Gui Yongqing was almost shot dead by a commissioner because of the deputy brigade commander. At that time, Gui Yongqing was the brigade commander of the 31st Brigade of the 11th Division and was considered the number one confidant under Chen Cheng."

"I really didn't realize that Gui Yongqing is really in the central government's connections?" Xu Shijiu really didn't know this.

Feng Shengfa said contemptuously: "If it weren't for the fact that there were people in the central government, just because Gui Yongqing's qualifications and ability, he was worthy of being the commander of the Central Military Academy's teaching corps. Why did he become the commander of the 27th Army? Just because he could speak loudly, just because he ran faster than others in Nanjing and was better at saving his life?"

Xu Shijiu was also a little worried and said, "Master, what's wrong, right?"

"It's going to rain, and my mother wants to get married, so he can go." Feng Shengfa said, "Anyway, I have a clear conscience."

To be honest, Feng Shengfa is quite worried about the coming investigation. Since the founding of the National Army, the factional struggles within the National Army have not stopped. The larger factions include He Yingqin, Chen Cheng's Tue and Hu Zongnan's First Army. After Tang Enbo served as the commander-in-chief of the 31st Army, he also had his own style. Gui Yongqing was born in the Tue and He Yingqin, but he was close to He Yingqin. He was very close to the world and had a deep connection. Feng Shengfa, except for his good relationship with Yu Jishi, had almost no military bosses who appreciated him. He was alone. In order to maintain Gui Yongqing, Chen Cheng insisted on turning black and white to blame the responsibility for the defeat in Fengxian. He was also unreasonable.

What's more, it is an indisputable fact that Dangshan lost its flank protection due to the failure of Fengxian County. If Chen Cheng insisted on seizing this point and curing Feng Shengfa's crime, he would have no choice.

However, before the investigation team sent by Chen Cheng arrived in Dangshan, the battle situation in Dangshan had taken a sharp turn. After the 74th Army withdrew to Dangshan and the 8th Army and 27th Army, the main force of the Japanese 16th Division, who had just returned to Fengxian, immediately turned around and headed south again, forming a north-south attack with the Japanese 13th Division against Dangshan.

Faced with the fierce attack of the Japanese 16th Division, a brigade of the division was destroyed after only half a day. When Gui Yongqing saw that the situation was wrong, he immediately withdrew his military headquarters from Dangshan to Lanfeng in one breath, and ordered the 46th Division to retreat. This action greatly dampened the enthusiasm of the 46th Division's officers and soldiers' enthusiasm for resisting the war, and completely disappointed the division's officers and soldiers.

The next day, the division quickly defeated the 16th Division of the Japanese army. This time, it really defeated the Japanese. Everyone was facing backwards and ran to Lanfeng. Once the division collapsed, the 46th Division retreated again. The barrier on the north side of Dangshan was suddenly lost. The Huang Jie's 8th Army guarding the south side of Dangshan was completely exposed.

Xue Yue, commander-in-chief of the First Corps, was extremely furious after hearing the news. Gui Yongqing's escape in the last battle directly caused the situation in Dangshan to collapse. Once the 8th Army collapsed or destroyed under the siege of the two major Japanese divisions, once Dangshan was lost, Shangqiu, an important town in eastern Henan, would immediately lose the eastern barrier.

Although Xue Yue was angry, he was helpless to deal with Gui Yongqing. Although the army was nominally affiliated with the First Corps, Gui Yongqing did not buy Xue Yue's tent at all. Otherwise, Gui Yongqing would not dare to resist in the war two days ago, resulting in the loss of the war in Fengxian. Xue Yue could not really arrest Gui Yongqing and shot him, so he could only look for troops everywhere to plug the leak.

Just as Li Hanhun's army arrived at the front line of eastern Henan, Xue Yue ordered his army to advance to Dangshan overnight.

But as soon as the army got off from Shangqiu Station, all the officers and soldiers took the train for a long time and were exhausted. Moreover, Shangqiu is more than 100 miles away from Dangshan. Even if they march in a hurry, it will take at least one day and one night to arrive. However, the battle situation in Dangshan could not be delayed for a moment.

So Xue Yue turned his attention to the 74th Army, which was resting near Cao County, and ordered the 74th Army to immediately go east to Liutun, northwest of Dangshan, to protect the 8th Army and to back the army. At the same time, he reminded Yu Jishi that even if the entire army fought to the last one, he would have to defend Liutun for at least two days. Yu Jishi readily received the military order.

Yu Jishi actually didn't take Xue Yue seriously, but now he was fighting with Gui Yongqing. Seeing that Gui Yongqing had already taken off all his clothes, he thought of showing off in Dangshan. He wanted to let the old man understand that Yu Jishi was the real party and country in the city, not the cowardly guy Gui Yongqing.

Immediately afterwards, Xue Yue sent another telegram to Huang Jie, ordering the 8th Army to defend Dangshan to the death.

Huang Jie is actually a tough character who can fight tough battles. He participated in the first and second Eastern Expeditions of the Huangpu Student Army. He is known for his courage to fight and fight. Like most Huangpu generals, he relied on his military achievements to go from platoon leader, company commander, and battalion commander to rise. After becoming the regiment commander, he led his troops to participate in the Battle of Songkou, and was seriously injured because he led his troops to lead the army.

After the Ninghan merged, the Kuomintang army continued to fight the northern expedition. Shandong warlord Zhang Zongchang followed the example of the famous general of the Three Kingdoms Pang De and sang to carry the coffin to fight, but was beaten by Huang Jie. Later, Huang Jie also participated in the Great Wall War and fought fiercely with the Japanese army at the Nantianmen for eight days and eight nights, killing and wounding more than 5,000 Japanese soldiers at the cost of more than 3,000 casualties. Because of his outstanding military achievements, he was awarded the Blue Sky and White Sun Medal by Chiang Kai-shek.

Objectively speaking, among the Huangpu generals, even if Huang Jie is not the best, he is at least considered first-class.

However, with Huang Jie's position in the army, he was inevitably involved in factionalism. In factionalism, if you want to maintain your position, position and influence, you must firmly grasp the army in your hands. Therefore, when the 8th Army and the army were facing the dilemma of being attacked from both sides, Huang Jie also retreated.

Even though Xue Yue issued a stern military order, he failed to dispel Huang Jie's idea.

However, Huang Jie did not do too much. At least he did not run to Lanfeng in one breath like Gui Yongqing. He just ordered the troops to retreat twenty miles and rebuild the defense line near Zhaotun. Therefore, although Dangshan Station gave up, the entire Dangshan defense line was still complete. However, in this way, the position of the 74th Army changed from behind to forward, and the pressure on the entire defense line was suddenly transferred from Huang Jie's 8th Army and Li Xianzhou Army to the 74th Army.

In order to command the troops more effectively, Feng Shengfa moved his division headquarters from Caozhuang to Mazhuang, which was less than three kilometers away from the front line of Liutun. The 75mm caliber field howitzer can easily hit here. This is absolutely unimaginable for other division commanders. Even Peichang Wang Yaowu can't do this.

When he learned about Huang Jie's 8th Army, Li Xianzhou's army retreated twenty miles overnight. The position of the 74th Army suddenly changed from behind to sudden forward. The 58th Division's headquarters is now in a big quarrel.

"Second, Huang Jie is doing this too much. He is going to use our 74th Army as cannon fodder."

"The division seat is recommended to send a report to Commander Xue immediately and let Commander Xue deal with it. The 8th Army and the army must immediately return to the original defense line."

"What's the use of reporting to Commander-in-Chief Xue? Commander-in-Chief Xue can't control it at all."

"Commander General Xue can't control it, so we will report it to the Chief of the War Zone directly. If Commander General Cheng can't control it, we will report it to the Military Commission and the Commander directly.

Deputy division commander He Lingxiao, commander of the 17th Brigade Fang Jiying, commander of the 174th Brigade Zhu Qi, and commander of the 174th Brigade Zhu Qi, and four regiment commanders, were indignant. One match and the other was excited. It would be impossible not to be excited. As soon as the 8th Army retreated, Liutun, who was stationed in the 74th Army, immediately became the protruding part of the entire Dangshan defense line, and would definitely attract the full-strength attack from Japan.

What's even more terrible is that the Japanese army gathered in Dangshan were not one or two detachments, but two main divisions, and an independent heavy artillery brigade equipped with 15Umm caliber heavy artillery. Facing the two divisions of 50,000 to 60,000 Japanese troops, the more than 20,000 officers and soldiers of the 74th Army were covered in iron and how many nails could they fight? This battle could not be fought at all.

Feng Shengfa frowned and shouted: "What's the point of making a noise? What's the point of making a noise?"
