At the 48th Army Headquarters, Commander Liao held a message in his hand with a frown on his face.
The telegram was from Nanjing. Chief of Staff Wang asked: "Military seat, what's wrong?"
Commander Liao handed the message to Chief of Staff Wang and said, "Read it yourself!"
Chief of Staff Wang received the telegram, but saw that it read:
"Since the Marco Polo Bridge Incident, Pingjin and Tianjin have fallen, and the war has spread. In view of the endless aggression of the violent sun, the Nationalist Government has decided to resist the war and defend itself.
The people of the whole country share the same hatred against the enemy, and all the soldiers are loyal and courageous. All the invaded provinces have fought extremely fiercely and made heroic sacrifices.
In a corner of Songhu, the Anti-Japanese War started in March. Soldiers from all over the country went to danger upon hearing of their righteousness. When their fate came at night, they built trenches with their flesh and blood on the front line, and they refused to retreat even if they died. The violent sun poured out the power of the navy, land and air force in a series of attacks. Although the position was reduced to ashes, the morale of the army was still as strong as gold and stone. The bravery in battle and the fierceness of death fully demonstrated the spirit of national independence and laid the foundation for the rejuvenation of China.
Nearby, the violent sun is even more greedy and arrogant. They divide their troops and march westward, forcing me to the capital. To find out their intentions, they just want to coerce their violence and make me an ally under the city.
Little did we know that from the day our country decided to resist the war and defend itself, we knew that this was the last moment, and that there was no room for surrender for the sake of the country's life, the national character, international integrity and world peace. All flesh and blood have the determination to rather be broken into pieces than to be ruined.
In order to adapt to the war situation, coordinate the overall situation, and long-term resistance to the war, the Nationalist Government has moved to Chongqing today. From now on, we will engage in a more protracted battle on a larger scale. The Chinese people, the vastness of the land, the determination of everyone to die, and the blood of the Chinese people will become one with the land. No violence can separate them.
With the sympathy of the international community and the unity of the people internally, we will surely be able to achieve the goal of safeguarding the survival and independence of the country and the nation by continuing the war of resistance. This is hereby announced to encourage everyone. "
After looking at it, Chief of Staff Wang said: "Are you planning to move the capital?"
Commander Liao sighed: "I really didn't expect that this battle would turn out like this. It forced the Republic of China to move its capital."
Chief of Staff Wang said: "It would be a good idea for the commission to move the capital at this time. With the space, our army will have enough room for maneuver."
Commander Liao shook his head and said: "The ancient capital of the Six Dynasties is said to be moved. How can it be so easy?"
"Report, Commander Liu of the 32nd Division is back."
At this moment, a guard came to report.
Commander Liao was surprised and asked: "Didn't I ask him to guard Sanchakou? Why did he come back?"
The guard looked confused because he didn't know how to answer?
At this time, Commander Liao also reacted and ordered: "Let him come in."
"yes!"
The guards took the order, and when time was short, Liu Ying and Yan Wushuang came in from the door.
Liu Ying was dirty, as if she had crawled out of the chimney, and looked like a worker digging out the chimney.
Commander Liao was originally angry because he wanted to kill Liu Ying because of the fall of Yushan. But seeing Liu Ying's miserable look, he wanted to laugh again.
Of course, Commander Liao did not laugh out loud, but scolded with a straight face: "Liu Ying, what did you do? Less than half a day after the Yushan position was handed over to you, you lost it to me. Because of the Wu Fu line You were broken in one place, and the whole line retreated. And I asked you to set up defenses at Sanchakou, did you go?"
"Arrange defense at Sanchakou?"
Liu Ying was surprised because he did not receive this order.
Of course, this was because his radio was broken.
"What?"
Commander Liao was angry at that time. Because if Liu Ying is not at Sanchakou, what will happen to the 44th Division, 98th Division, and 13th Division?
"Go and ask how the 44th Division, 98th Division, and 13th Division are doing?"
Commander Liao quickly ordered.
At the same time, Liu Ying also realized the seriousness of the situation, because the fall of Yushan caused the entire Wufu line to collapse.
Of course, Liu Ying didn't know that the Wu-Fu Line had already exceeded its task and bought enough time for the Xicheng Line defenses. Therefore, the main reason for the complete retreat of the Wu-Fu line is that the fortifications of the Xicheng line have been completed, not just because he lost Yushan
But Liu Ying thought so. He quickly explained: "General, please listen to my explanation. The loss of Yushan is indeed not only my responsibility. You don't know how arrogant that special commissioner is. I just arrived in Yushan and I haven't done anything yet." After taking a breath, he asked me to do this and do that.
As you know, before the reinforcements, our 32nd Division encountered a tenacious blockade by two large groups of Japanese troops. Our 32nd Division suffered heavy casualties. But we rushed to Yushan non-stop after repelling the Japanese army.
We arrived at Yushan and did not get any rest. The special commissioner ordered us to take over the position and take away all the weapons and equipment from the Yushan position.
But the most egregious thing was that he ordered us to dispose of the corpses of Japanese soldiers. As a result, all the soldiers of our 32nd Division were exhausted, and the sentries did not notice that the Japanese troops had touched the position because they were napping. This led to the loss of the Yushan position.
(The main reason for the loss of the Yushan position was that Liu Ying was negligent and believed that after the Botian detachment was repulsed, he would not attack Yushan again in a short time. Moreover, the password was leaked at night, which directly caused the Japanese army to board Yushan in a grand manner. Many defenders The soldiers were all decapitated by the enemy in their sleep)
I will report to you immediately after the Yushan position was lost. And fought many times with Japanese pursuing troops. As a result, the radio broke down during the battle. (The radio was not damaged in the battle, but was damaged manually, and Liu Ying failed to detect it clearly.) As a result, I failed to receive your order.
So Military Commander, this matter really can’t be entirely blamed on me? "
At this time, Yan Wushuang also helped: "Military seat, I have been with Master Liu all the time, and I can prove what he said. It is indeed the commissioner who is arbitrary and never listens to other people's suggestions."
Commander Liao frowned. In fact, he sometimes felt that although the special commissioner was very capable, he was indeed a bit overbearing.
However, he was domineering and won the battle, but what about Liu Ying? But Yushan was lost. There is no way this matter can be justified.
But to punish Liu Ying, you have to give an order from the top. Although he is the army commander, Liu Ying is the division commander of the National Government, so this matter still has to wait for the Third Theater Command to make a decision!
"Stop, who are you? This is the headquarters of the 48th Army. ..."
"Go away, special commissioner, you dare to stop me?"
At this moment, just when Commander Liao was about to report Liu Ying's matter according to normal procedures, the guard outside the door was pushed away, and then a group of people broke in.
Everyone in the headquarters was very nervous, and some even pulled out the guns on their waists.
But at this moment, Commander Liao quickly stopped him and went up to greet him: "Commissioner, you are finally here. I have prepared the dinner."
It was Duanwu who came in. Duanwu was leaning on a Type 38 rifle. He ignored Commander Liao and looked around the entire headquarters. Finally I saw Liu Ying.
Duanwu laughed and said: "Hehehe, Mr. Liu, hahaha!"
Xie Jinyuan is not here at this time. If he were here, he would definitely notice that things are developing towards an irreversible point. Because he was smiling like this when he killed Liu Peixu in Dragon Boat Festival, and then suddenly drew his gun and killed Liu Peixu.
But Liu Ying didn't know it. He just saw Duanwu smiling and pretended that Duanwu didn't care about him anymore. And this is at the headquarters of the 48th Army.
He forced out a smile and stepped forward, preparing to make up another story to deceive the Dragon Boat Festival. Of course, this story must be in line with the previous report with Commander Liao, and it must also make Dragon Boat Festival sound less objectionable.
So Liu Ying is also a person who is very good at making up stories!
It’s just that the Dragon Boat Festival moved before he could tell his story. Duanwu raised his injured right leg.
At this moment, Zhu Shengzhong saw Duanwu's right leg moving and thought he was going to kick someone.
Zhu Shengzhong has seen this action countless times. Because in the entire independent group, I am afraid he has been kicked the most. So as soon as Duan Wu raised his leg, he rushed forward and kicked Mr. Liu in the lower abdomen, knocking Mr. Liu out.
Mr. Liu was caught off guard by the kick. He took two steps back and knocked over a table before he came to a stop.
People around were shocked because Liu Ying was a division commander after all. He was kicked in public, and by a small battalion commander. This was simply ridiculous.
Commander Liao also felt that it was inappropriate. After all, Liu Ying was his subordinate. But the Dragon Boat Festival was here at this time, and Commander Liao couldn't say anything. I just hope that Dragon Boat Festival can calm down because of this incident.
At the same time, Zhu Shengzhong didn't care about that, and nodded and bowed to Duanwu: "Tuanzuo, I am quick, right? I know what you are going to do as soon as you lift your leg."
Duanwu scolded: "I raised my leg to get closer. Who told you to kick someone?"
When Dragon Boat Festival said this, everyone present was speechless. It turned out that the special commissioner did not want to kick Mr. Liu, but his subordinates took matters into their own hands.
But at this time, Liu Ying quit, thinking that she had lost face, and said to Commander Liao: "Commander, after all, I am also the commander of a division, and I was beaten by a junior officer like this. How can I lead troops in the future?" "
Commander Liao felt the same way and didn't know how to solve this matter. But at this moment, Duanwu suddenly took out his gun, pointed it at Liu Ying and said, "You no longer need to lead troops."
"Special Commissioner, no,..."
"Special correspondent?"
boom! boom! boom! Bang bang! ...
Liu Ying exclaimed, Commander Liao stopped him, but Duan Wu had already fired, and not just one shot, but five shots at Liu Ying, breaking Liu Ying's chest.
Quiet, the entire command room was extremely silent at this time. Everyone present even forgot to breathe because of the five shots of the Dragon Boat Festival.
He killed people at the headquarters, and he was the commander of a division, and he didn't say anything. There was no interrogation, and the person was killed without even asking.
OMG! Their thoughts at this moment seemed to be tied together. Even Commander Liao was the same. He thought to himself: Is this young commissioner crazy? Killing people right in his headquarters? And there’s not even a reason?
He found it difficult to accept the battalion commander's kick to Liu Ying just now, and just when Duan Wu said that his men would have wrong intentions, he was still thinking about how to resolve the matter into a trivial matter. But he didn't want to, five shots were fired, and Liu Ying was dead.
Damn it, Commander Liao was a little confused, and he wanted to sort it out.
But at this moment, Yan Wushuang screamed: "Guards, guards, arrest them quickly, these people killed Master Liu!..."
