The team drove to Dulong Mountain and welcomed Wang Zhankui's team up the mountain. The two teams were together, and they inevitably got together to drink and celebrate. Although the two sides had been rivals for a while, after all, they were both from Dulong Mountain.
Wang Zhankui seemed even more excited and proposed to raise a glass and drink. He talked a lot today, and his excitement was palpable. It seemed that he was quite satisfied with the two teams being together. After all, he was nominally recruiting the Manchurian National Salvation Army.
"You don't have to mind, boss. We are brothers by nature. It's normal to be separated for a few days due to disagreements. As the saying goes, if we stay together for a long time, we will break up. If we stay apart for a long time, we will get back together. In the end, we are still brothers!"
Chief Captain Yang Furen also proposed a toast. He may have aged a bit, but Qi Yu's high energy is still the same as before. He is also very happy today, because even Yu Chenglong and others have not seen each other for a long time.
After the friendly exchanges, the banquet dispersed and everyone went back to camp to rest. The next day, the two teams officially joined together and were still called the "Manchuria National Salvation Army". This was discussed in advance and Wang Zhankui had no objection.
Xiao Dongxue served as the commander-in-chief and the commander of the middle route army, Wang Zhankui served as the commander-in-chief and also commanded the left route army, Fang Zhenzhong served as the commander of the right route army, and Yang Furen concurrently served as the chief of general staff.
In addition, the "Manchuria National Salvation Army Military and Political Committee" was established, with Yu Chenglong as the chairman, Yang Furen, Xiao Dongxue, Wang Zhankui, Zhang Daoxian, Hua Yanrong and Fang Zhenzhong as committee members, fully responsible for the work of the Manchuria National Salvation Army and the Holy Way. .
"The chief rudder and commander-in-chief Wang will go down the mountain now to contact the Manchukuo government and the Japanese about our surrender and ask them to send people to Dulong Mountain to negotiate. We will not accept low-level people coming.
General Office Zhang, General Office Hua, and Commander Fang, you select fifty brothers to go down the mountain, carry short weapons, and sneak into each branch. Be prepared and attack when necessary.
When the Japanese came to negotiate, they launched attacks on the scattered Japanese, Manchurian officers and soldiers, police, and the leading elements of the Concord Society and the Black Dragon Society to cooperate with the negotiations on the mountain.
Pay attention to seize the opportunity and protect yourself and the organization. Commander Xiao and I stepped up preparations on the mountain to prevent any unexpected events! Split up now and work together for the best outcome. "
After Jackie Chan discussed with the people of the Military and Political Committee, he gave instructions, and everyone went to act according to the plan. Of course, Commander-in-Chief Yang Furen and Commander-in-Chief Wang Zhankui took the people away first, because their tasks were the most important.
More than ten days later, Commander-in-Chief Yang and Commander-in-Chief Wang Zhankui returned to Dulong Mountain and informed the Manchukuo government and Japanese negotiators that they might arrive in a few days.
According to the decision of the Military and Political Committee, Commander-in-Chief Yang, Commander-in-Chief Xiao, and Commander-in-Chief Wang served as the plenipotentiary negotiators of the Manchuria National Salvation Army, negotiated with Japanese and Manchurian representatives, and determined the negotiation platform and specific details.
Yu Chenglong is mainly responsible for arranging negotiation matters, Dulong Mountain defense and other matters, focusing on the worst-case scenario to prevent possible accidents. Of course, this possibility may not exist, but we cannot be careless.
The atmosphere in Dulong Mountain suddenly became tense again! Yu Chenglong and others designed several defense and retreat plans, carefully studying and arranging every imaginable detail.
Everything was arranged and we were anxiously waiting for the arrival of the Japanese and Manchurian negotiators. During this period, everyone felt uneasy, especially leaders such as Yu Chenglong, who always felt a little ungrounded.
The Manchurian National Salvation Army is ready, and everyone's hearts are hanging in the air. No one can guess what will happen? What kind of outcome awaits the fate of the Manchurian National Salvation Army? All we can do is wait with anxiety, and be anxious while waiting!
After waiting vigilantly for three days, the brothers on peripheral alert came back and reported that the Matsumoto Regiment of the Japanese Kwantung Army, with the cooperation of the Manchurian Army, was moving towards Dulong Mountain. There were more than 3,000 people, and it seemed that they also wanted to cooperate with the negotiations on Dulong Mountain.
The Matsumoto regiment was stationed only half a day away from Dulong Mountain, eyeing Dulong Mountain. You must know that the Matsumoto Regiment is the vanguard of the Japanese army's attack on the anti-Japanese armed forces. Transferring them here is very intimidating.
"This team is so hateful! We need to strengthen our vigilance."
Commander-in-Chief Xiao Dongxue was very dissatisfied with the arrival of the Matsumoto unit. She felt that it was unethical for the Japanese to come first before negotiations and should be a warning to avoid a sudden attack by the Japs. However, Yu Chenglong did not care much.
"This is to scare us and gain bargaining chips. The little devils are not going well in China and the Asian battlefield. They are in urgent need of stability in Manchuria and will not easily stir up trouble. Let's be on guard.
As long as our retreat route is not cut off, there is no danger. Due to the danger of Dulong Mountain, the Japs cannot gain any advantage by attacking from the front, but they should pay attention to monitoring the retreat route. "
The Japanese and Manchurian negotiating delegations arrived at Dulong Mountain two days later. Before boarding, they had already sent someone to inform them of the specific arrival time at Dulong Mountain, and they were absolutely on time. This also showed that they attached great importance to the negotiations.
The delegation consisted of five people, including Colonel Yoshida, the adjutant of the Harbin Secret Service of the Japanese Kwantung Army, Colonel Matsumoto, the captain of the Matsumoto Regiment, Major General Li Zhongliang, the staff officer of the Manchukuo Military and Political Department, and Lieutenant General Wang Xianwu, the Minister of Military and Political Affairs of Heihe Province. They were accompanied by five staff members and three Japanese ronin. .
Yang Furen, Xiao Dongxue, and Wang Zhankui went down the mountain to greet them, and moved the Japanese and Manchu delegations to the Dulong Mountain Hall. But Yu Chenglong did not show up. Even if the representatives of Japan and Manchukuo entered the Dulong Mountain Hall, Yu Chenglong did not show up.
There was tight security outside the Dulongshan Hall. Soldiers who had recently changed into the uniforms of the Manchurian National Salvation Army were armed with live ammunition and were not squinting. They were guarding the hall majestically.
The hall was empty, with a row of square tables lined up in the middle, with seven Taishi chairs on each side. There were more than a dozen beds surrounding the hall, all of which were newly made.
On the stone steps in the northernmost center of the hall, the Taishi chair carved from a large stone is covered with tiger skin. Not far in front of it is a plan with a radio transmitter familiar to the Japanese.
"Gentlemen, please take a rest first. We will send someone to deliver meals later. Let's eat and rest first. We will officially start negotiations in the afternoon."
Chief Yang Furen, while politely letting the representatives take their seats, stated the specific arrangements for the Manchurian National Salvation Army. The Japanese and Manchurian representatives exchanged glances with each other, and their chief representative, Yoshida Yoshida, made a cold request.
"We must meet Jiang Long immediately and announce to him the order to integrate the Kwantung Army and Manchukuo!"
"Mr. Colonel, don't be impatient for now. It's not too late to talk after dinner. Besides, we haven't negotiated the terms yet. Where did the recruitment order come from? This is not in line with negotiation procedures!"
Commander Xiao Dongxue gave a lukewarm rebuttal. She wanted to follow the plan set by the Manchurian National Salvation Army and could not be overpowered by the momentum of the Japanese and Manchurian representatives. This made Colonel Matsumoto, the captain of the Matsumoto Regiment, very unhappy. .
