In front of Yanying Tower, there was a bustle of people.
To be more precise, it was full of gunpowder. The guard battalion of the 71st Army had already been assembled, and the military police force of the Luoyang Security Headquarters had also assembled a battalion.
These two armies are like tit-for-tat, facing each other across the river. They want to fight but are not ready to fight. If someone fires the first shot at this time, then the battle will definitely break out.
As for Wang Jingjiu, after he ordered the 71st Army Guard Battalion to assemble immediately, he went into Yanying to sleep. After all, as the big boss at the center of the storm, he must have a good sleep. This is a small thing. It's not enough to let him handle it. As long as these military police are disarmed, wouldn't it be over? It's a complete trivial matter.
The commotion has become so loud that the senior officials of the garrison headquarters cannot pretend to be ignorant of what is happening outside the window. No, Colonel Pang He, director of the military police department of the Luoyang garrison headquarters, has been alarmed. He is in Yan The people on the front line here at Yinglou understand the situation.
After understanding the ins and outs of the matter, Director Pang's face immediately turned as dark as the bottom of a pot - in the middle of the night, he caused such a big trouble, and he couldn't leave for a while. No one will be happy.
"Director, what should we do now?" a staff officer asked in a soft voice close to Pang He's ear.
"What to deal with? We are afraid that we can't deal with something of such a bad nature, right? Besides, the three army commanders currently stationed in Luoyang are all famous people close to Chairman Chiang Kai-shek, so we won't mess with them. It's over. Let's wait until Chief Zhu comes to deal with it!" Director Pang took a deep breath and said. After spending decades in the world, his intuition told Pang He that this matter was not something he could afford to interfere with.
The commander of the military police did not want to cause trouble, and the 71st Army Guard Battalion also did not want to cause trouble. Wang Jingzhi had a reckless personality, but this did not mean that he was a fool who knew nothing.
Seeing this battle, if it really breaks out, Wang Jingzhi knows that his head will definitely be chopped off to correct the military law. Even if he is in the military seat, he may not be able to protect himself.
On this point, Wang Jingzhi saw it very clearly - he had been serving as the guard company commander since he followed Wang Jingjiu. In order to repay the "grace" of the brigade commander at that time, he also changed his name specially. Cheng Jingzhi has been with Wang Jingjiu for such a long time, so it is impossible for him to not even have this bit of discernment.
Ever since, when the commanders of both sides did not want to make the matter bigger, the two sides quietly entered into a confrontation.
A confrontation is a confrontation, but it will never give up so easily. No matter which side surrenders first, this conflict will be lost.
If the 71st Army Guard Battalion relents, it will face the end of being disarmed. If the Military Police Battalion relents, the reputation of the Luoyang Guard Command will be completely lost.
Under the building of the Luoyang Security Command, a car was already waiting, waiting for Lieutenant General Zhu Shaozhou, the commander of the Luoyang Security Command, to come down.
Not long after, Zhu Shaozhou, who had already put on a military uniform, strode from the headquarters gate to the car with two followers.
Zhu Shaozhou is forty-five years old this year, but his figure is still so strong and not even out of shape at all. His short hair makes him look very energetic, and he still looks like he is thirty-seven or eighteen years old.
"Hurry, drive to Yanying Tower immediately! Don't let the situation get worse." After getting in the car, Zhu Shaozhou gave direct instructions to the driver.
"Yes, sir." After the driver responded, he immediately started the vehicle and started heading to Yanying Tower.
When Zhu Shaozhou arrived at Yanying Tower, it was already ten minutes later.
As he followed the car all the way in, Zhu Shaozhou's face became darker and darker. Nothing of such a bad nature had ever happened since he took office as the Luoyang Security Commander.
This is not another situation, this is a head-on conflict with the Luoyang Security Command with weapons, and such a powerful force has been assembled - what does this Wang Jingjiu want to do? Is it because the birthday boy hangs himself because he thinks his life is too long? !
Thinking of this, Zhu Shaozhou was so angry that his teeth itched.
However, he still took a deep breath, trying to stop the fire that was about to burst out of his throat!
The attendant next to him saw the expression on Zhu Shaozhou's face clearly, and immediately did not dare to speak out, for fear that Chief Zhu would be used as a punching bag.
After the car stopped, Zhu Shaozhou got out of the car and immediately snorted, then strode forward, not even bothering to respond to the greetings along the way.
"Hello, sir!"
"Hello, sir!"
"Hello, sir!"
…
As Zhu Shaozhou walked, military policemen under the Luoyang Security Command stood at attention and saluted, which shows his high prestige.
When Zhu Shaozhou walked to the front, his lungs almost exploded!
Groups of military police wearing goose-yellow military uniforms and white armbands were confronting the field troops who did not wear white armbands, and the officer opposite was a lieutenant colonel!
How could a young lieutenant colonel be so bold? It was obviously Wang Jingjiu, the commander-in-chief, who ordered this!
After meeting Zhu Shaozhou, Wang Jingzhi probably knew that the situation was not good. He was a lieutenant general, and his own military rank was also that of lieutenant general. And wasn't the only lieutenant general in the military police force, Zhu Shaozhou and Chief Zhu?
Wang Jingzhi naturally knew Commander Zhu Shao and Zhou Zhu. During the first Songhu War of Resistance, Wang Jingjiu was the commander of the 87th Division, and Wang Jingzhi was the guard battalion commander of the 87th Division. The name of Zhu Shaozhou, Chief of Staff of the Fifth Army, is naturally familiar to him.
"Quickly, wake up the military commander. Something serious has happened. Commander Zhu is here!" Wang Jingzhi directly pulled over a soldier and said very seriously
Zhu Shaozhou walked directly to the front of the confrontation between the two sides, with a gloomy face, and directly asked Wang Jingzhi: "Which army are you from?"
Faced with Zhu Shaozhou's question, Wang Jingzhi was slightly stunned, not knowing whether he should respond or not.
"What? You didn't answer the officer's question? What? Are your 71st Army trying to rebel?!" When the last sentence of the question came to the end, Zhu Shaozhou shouted directly.
Faced with Zhu Shaozhou's loud questioning, Wang Jingzhi instantly made the most correct decision. He immediately stood at attention and saluted: "Sir, we are from the 71st Army Guard Battalion!"
Wang Jingzhi knew very well that if he didn't keep an eye on the current situation, when Commander Zhu's big hat came off, he, Wang Jingzhi, would have to shed his skin even if he didn't die!
"The 71st Army Guard Battalion?" Zhu Shaozhou narrowed his eyes and sneered, "Are your 71st Army Guard Battalion going to break away from the national army's order of battle?"
Wang Jingzhi's face was dripping with cold sweat, and he said tremblingly: "Report...report to the commander, no...no..."
"Then since you have not broken away from the order of battle of the national army, why are you pointing guns at your own officers and comrades in arms?!" Zhu Shaozhou shouted directly.
After hearing this, Wang Jingzhi hesitated. After all, if he had been disarmed before the military commander came out, the military commander would not know what to do with Wang Jingzhi after he returned to the military headquarters.
Zhu Shaozhou saw the hesitation on Wang Jingzhi's face, and immediately shouted again: "I ask you to put down your weapons immediately, otherwise you will be treated as rebels immediately!"
After Zhu Shaozhou yelled at Wang Jing, the military police behind Zhu Shaozhou immediately prepared for battle, waiting for the commander's order at any time, and then launched the most violent attack on this group of officers and soldiers of the 71st Army Guard Battalion. attack.
Just when Wang Jingzhi was about to order his troops to put down their weapons, the door of Yanying Tower opened, and Wang Jingjiu, who had sobered up some wine, walked out...
