    Chapter 584: Kill without mercy (2)

    After Tang Qiuli entered the lobby of Tang Enbo's private residence, he asked Tang Enbo directly without courtesy and who ordered him to leave the established defense area and garrison in Xiangfan, Hubei Province. This sentence was no less than a bombshell.  All the officers of the Eighth Legion in the hall, including Tang Enbo, were stunned.

    Tang Enbo could not answer this question, and all the officers of the Eighth Army could not answer this question. No one ordered them to leave Henan. If there was an order, it was the sound of Japanese artillery.

    There was a suppressed silence in the hall. Tang Qiuli stared at Tang Enbo with sharp eyes. Tang Enbo avoided his gaze. He did not expect that Tang Qiuli would be so aggressive when he first came up. He left no room for change and just left the established place without authorization.  As for the defense zone, he cannot be the commander of the army.

    After a while of silence, Chief of Staff Feng of the Eighth Army came out to smooth things over. He stood up and explained to Tang Qiuli: "Vice Chairman Tang Mingjian, because the situation was urgent at that time, the Japanese army attacked fiercely, and our army suffered heavy casualties, so we had to save our lives."  Stop resisting, retreat to Xiangfan, conserve your strength, and regroup for the future counterattack in Henan. This is a last resort for the commander of the Tang Army. He assesses the situation and takes wise measures. He can't use up all his troops, right?  attack?"

    As soon as Chief of Staff Feng's words came out, they immediately won the echo of the whole room. Tang Qiuli took a closer look at Tang Enbo's senior counselor. Behind the gold-rimmed glasses, there was a pair of cunning eyes. At this time, they were full of pride. The last two  The sentence contains the meaning of a rhetorical question, and he is obviously very proud of his eloquence.

    Tang Enbo also came to his senses. Just now, Tang Qiuli hit him in the head with a stick and knocked him unconscious. The chief of staff came to his rescue and straightened his back again. "What Vice Chairman Tang and Chief of Staff Feng said was the truth at that time."  , I wonder if you are satisfied with this answer?" The last sentence is full of provocation.

    Tang Enbo didn't expect that Tang Qiuli would launch an attack on him from the very beginning. It seemed that things were going to be difficult to resolve today. According to his idea, he would give in in front of Tang Qiuli. After all, he was the vice chairman of the Military Commission, and his name was  He is his superior, and he can at most spend some money, and turn big things into trivial matters. They are all on the same boat as the National Government, holding Chairman Chiang Kai-shek's job, and they cannot force each other to a dead end.

    He thought well. He never thought that Tang Qiuli was so determined to kill him. From the moment he found him, in Tang Qiuli's eyes, Tang Enbo was already a dead man. The reason why he talked so much with him  , it¡¯s because there are still a few doubts in my mind that I haven¡¯t clarified, otherwise, I¡¯ll shoot him in the head.

    The smile on Tang Qiuli's face became even colder, "Satisfied? On the first day of the war in Henan, your Eighth Army Corps cut off all contact with the general headquarters. The subordinate divisions did not receive any instructions from the Corps Headquarters and fell into their own ways.  Due to the chaotic state of the war, our Yellow River Theater Command could not get any news about the Henan battlefield. Where was your commander, Tang Army, at that time? "How did you explain this?"

    Tang Qiuli's words were like knives, piercing Tang Enbo's heart. He couldn't explain it. He cut off the contact with the Yellow River Basin Theater Command. Aren't you afraid that you, Tang Qiuli, would force me and the Japanese to fight to the death? Then the Japanese  Is it easy to mess with?  Over there?  I was running. If I didn't run, the Japanese shells would fall on top of my head. Can I say these words? Tang Enbo stirred his lips a few times, but he didn't say a word.

    The same Chief of Staff Feng stood up and said: "Vice Chairman Tang, what happened is this. Commander Tang personally came to the front line to direct the battle, and the Corps Telecommunications Department accompanied him. On the way to the front line, he was suddenly attacked by Japanese artillery fire. Most of the personnel of the Corps Headquarters  Killed in action, even the commander of the corps himself was in danger, the radio station was destroyed, confidential personnel were also killed, and the code book was destroyed by artillery fire. Only then did we lose contact with you. After that, during the transfer process of the corps headquarters, as for what you said of deliberately cutting off  I really don¡¯t agree with the contact with the headquarters. As you know, the battlefield situation is ever-changing and anything can happen.¡±

    Tang Qiuli glanced at the chief of staff named Feng and was so angry that he wanted to laugh. This guy could tell lies about anything. He could tell lies with his eyes wide open and his face would not change. He was really a master. Tang Enbo wanted to hug him.  He kissed his chief of staff, and it was not for nothing that he was the most trusted person. He was able to step forward at the critical moment. The man named Tang solved such a difficult question so easily. What a talent.

    Tang Qiuli's smile faded and he said sternly: "That's enough, I don't want to listen to your lies anymore. Your Eighth Army headquarters is in Zhengzhou. Can Japanese artillery hit Zhengzhou from Anyang? Your Tang Enbo's headquarters is in the front  The fiercer the sound of artillery, the further away from the front line. No matter how you argue, it can't change you. Tang Enbo was afraid of the enemy like a tiger and fled before the battle. As a result, the Henan defense line was taken advantage of by the Japanese army. Anyang, Hebi, Xinxiang, and Zhengzhou fell one after another. As the saying goes, the sound was heard for eighty miles.  , the gunshot was one hundred and three, I¡¯m afraid your Tang Enbo¡¯s escape speed was more than that, right?¡±

      "As a soldier, he fled before fighting. There were 230,000 troops in the empty space, but he did not resist. Hearing the sound of Japanese artillery, he collapsed thousands of miles away, losing the city and the ground. He only focused on escaping for his life, refused to accept orders from his superiors, and returned.  Fabricating all kinds of lies in order to get through, you, Tang Enbo, are guilty of the most serious crime."

    At this point, Tang Enbo fully understood that the purpose of Tang Enbo was not to extort money, but to get Tang's head. Tang had also been on the battlefield for many years. How could someone who had been in the officialdom for decades sit back and wait for death?  You are in my territory now, and you are neither a poisonous nor a husband, so don¡¯t blame me, Mr. Tang, for being ruthless. If you insist on antagonizing me again, just kill the man named Tang secretly in Xiangfan, destroy the body and wipe out the traces, and there will be no one there anyway.  Know that he has been here before.

    It must be said that Tang Enbo was bold enough to dare to attack the second-largest figure in the government. Probably in his mind, except for Chairman Chiang Kai-shek, he dared to attack anyone who blocked his way to promotion and wealth. I don¡¯t know what got him.  Thinking of such a desperate move, Tang Enbo's fear disappeared, and the previous arrangements also made him more courageous.

    He looked at Tang Qiuli without fear and said: "Vice Chairman Tang, I, Mr. Tang, withdrew troops from Henan to preserve our strength and to implement Chairman Chiang's instructions. Besides, I am the commander of the Eighth Army Corps.  The system is directly under the jurisdiction of the Nanjing Military Commission. Although it is temporarily placed under the control of the Yellow River Basin War Zone, you are under indirect command and are not subordinate to each other. You also try your best to deal with me. Chairman Chiang can only give orders, otherwise, no one can touch it.  The Eighth Army has one soldier at a time. Don¡¯t even think about touching a single hair of my Tang Enbo. I, Mr. Tang, have an army of 120,000 and I am not a vegetarian.¡±

    This statement has made it clear that you, Tang Qiuli, are not qualified enough to do anything to me. If I am not under your command, no one except the old man can lay a finger on me. This is tantamount to publicly tearing apart the officers below.  We all cheered for Tang Enbo's words. What he said was really tough. Yes, it's not your business. Our backer is Chairman Chiang. What can you do to us?  For a moment, the atmosphere in the hall became extremely tense, and the officers below were also ready to make a move.

    Tang Qiuli watched with interest. The senior officers of the Eighth Army who were noisy below had brighter smiles on their faces, but their voices were so cold that it made people feel chilling. "Really? I, Tang Qiuli, can't kill you."  What about Tang Enbo and the Eighth Army? Just because you are part of the Central Military System? Regarding the defense of Henan, I once sent you a special message to ask you to make careful arrangements and prevent the Japanese from attacking Henan at any time. What will be the result? "

    "On the first day of the Henan War, your two trusted divisions fled to the Lin County area without firing a single shot. The Japanese occupied Anyang without bloodshed, causing the north gate of Henan to burst open. The Japanese army that attacked Anyang was only one  I have also reminded you of the strength of the brigade and the importance of Anyang, but you have put your cronies who have no combat effectiveness and only know how to take advantage of the country's difficulties and put them in such an important place. You have neglected your duties and made the important matter of the War of Resistance a trivial matter.  , This is one of your crimes, Tang Enbo."

    "In World War II in Hebi, General Liu Zhaoyu's 53rd Division had withstood the Japanese attack, but you, Tang Enbo, ordered the 53rd Division to defend their position, but secretly ordered your trusted 87th Division and 89th Division  Abandoning the position and fleeing in the face of the battle, the defenses on the left and right wings of the 53rd Division were ineffective. The Japanese army was surrounded on all sides. More than 13,000 soldiers of the 53rd Division died for their country. General Liu Zhaoyu died in the line of duty. This is the second crime of Tang Enbo. "

    "Fighting Xinxiang again, the 130th Division has successfully blocked the Japanese attack momentum. If you mobilize reserve forces to join the Xinxiang battlefield at this time, the Japanese army will never be able to take another step forward. But you secretly ordered your cronies No. 67  The 130th Division and the 61st Division abandoned their positions, and the order given to the division commander, General Cao Guangtu, was to defend where they were. As a result, the 130th Division was surrounded by the Japanese army. More than 15,000 officers and soldiers in the division fought the Japanese army for a day, and no one escaped.  , fought to the last man, all died for the country, and the division commander General Cao Guangtu was killed. This is the third crime of Tang Enbo. "

    "In the Fourth Battle of Zhengzhou, your three divisions guarding Zhengzhou received your order to abandon Zhengzhou and flee south. They lost Zhengzhou without fighting. The Japanese army committed heinous crimes in Zhengzhou. At this point, the line from Anyang, Henan to Zhengzhou has been completely occupied by the Japanese army.  The Japanese army suffered slight losses. With the troops and equipment in your hands, Tang Enbo, it is not difficult to severely damage the Japanese army. After these four battles, the Japanese army has gained all the advantages in Henan. Going north can threaten our troops in the Yellow River Theater, and going south can support the Songhu battlefield.  Our troops formed an encirclement, and they could also march straight into Wuhan, and the overall war became passive. This is the fourth crime of Tang Enbo. "

    In the hall, only Tang Qiuli's voice, like the cold wind, passed through the hearts of all the officers of the Eighth Army. Tang Enbo's face was extremely ugly. What Tang Qiuli said was the truth. No matter how they quibbled, they could not change the facts.  However, Tang Enbo had a doubt in his mind. How did Tang Qiuli know all this?
