    Chapter 734: The military situation in Beijing and Tianjin is urgent

    The Extraordinary Plenary Meeting of the Kuomintang Central Committee held in Wuhan ended and unanimously approved Tang Qiuli's proposal to move the capital to Southwest China, setting the wartime capital in Chongqing, Sichuan. At this point, a reshuffle of power within the Kuomintang began.  The grand drama of cards came to an end, and various figures appeared on stage. They all regarded it as a rare opportunity for the faction's power to rise again. However, because of the existence of Tang Qiuli, a super heavyweight, no one got the chance.  (Baidu search,)

    Unknown to the powerful Northwest Xinjiang Supervisor Sheng Shicai, Ningxia Provincial Chairman Ma Hongkui, and Qinghai Provincial Chairman Ma Bufang, they were shot first despite being shot first. As a result, they became the laughing stock of the Central Committee members. Wang Jingwei and Wang Jingwei, who thought they were sure of victory,  The Hubei faction also suffered a complete defeat. The number one general, Lu Zixiao, was removed from his military and political posts by Tang Qiuli. He lost all his dignity and face. Liang Jiaren, the successor as the main attacker, was beaten to the ground by Tang Qiuli's verbal attacks and fell unconscious on the spot. Can he  Restoring its former glory is still unknown.

    Taking this opportunity, after the meeting, Chairman Chiang made another big move and changed all the leaders of the party, government and military in Hubei Province. They were all direct descendants of the Central Committee and disciples of the principal. Chairman Chiang gave the long-coveted leaders  Hubei Province also took the opportunity to catch him. Tang Qiuli had to admire that Chairman Chiang was really a master of chaotic warfare and an expert at taking advantage of his illness to kill him.

    The next step was to determine the person responsible for moving the capital. This was another extremely important task. After being nominated by Chairman Chiang and approved by all Central Committee members, the Preparatory Committee for the Capital Relocation was formally established. Yang Yongtai, Secretary-General of the Military Commission of the National Government, and Liu Xiangzi, the King of Sichuan, were  Among them, Lieutenant General Tang Qiusheng, deputy commander of the ** Division and commander of the Sulu Mobile Corps, and Lieutenant General Liu Tiehan, deputy commander of the ** Division and commander of the Northeast Advance Command, are among the committee members who moved the capital.  , the Ministry of Finance specially allocated a large sum of funds to move the capital. Of course, the person who used this huge sum of money was Chairman Chiang's most trusted person.

    On the other hand, there is no one on the line of Wang Jingwei, Chairman of the National Government, who can't even get an errand job, let alone an important position. In the eyes of outsiders, the relationship between the No. 1 and No. 2 figures in the government has become  They are close and have a tacit understanding of cooperation. Otherwise, Chairman Chiang, who regards military power as his life, would not hand over the position of Marshal of the World's Soldiers and Horses, together with his family's Central Army, to the No. 2 man Tang Qiuli, who originally ranked  The third heavyweight Wang Jingwei is even more marginalized. What does he do as the empty-handed Chairman of the National Government?

    People who are familiar with the inside story of the national government and have complicated relationships with various factions within the Kuomintang, or experienced people who have been through the ups and downs of officialdom and have often been secretly attacked by Chairman Chiang. They have experienced many things, but they think that things are not that simple. They see that  The secret lies in just looking at the composition of the military committee of the former enemy commander's camp in Nanjing. Apart from Tang Qiuli, could that person who was not Chiang's confidant and absolutely loyal to the leader listen to Tang Qiuli?

    There must be something good going on here. Before he even exercised his authority, Chairman Chiang was thinking of shunting Tang Qiuli away, but he was so depressed that no one dared to tell the truth. It was too late to go around. No. 1 and No. 2  We, those of us with shallow morals, should not get involved in the fight between characters. If we don¡¯t get it right, we could be shattered to pieces. Vice Chairman Tang and Director Tang¡¯s job is not easy to do. There will be good shows in the future.  Got it

    Tang Qiuli didn't care, nor did he pierce the window. Although Chairman Chiang used tricks, it depends on who will be in charge of the commander's camp. The key is to obtain this important position and have the command to conduct a comprehensive war against Japan.  At that time, these four people will all be chess pieces on their own chessboard. The rules will have the final say on how to move. Those who do not play according to the routine will be kicked out.  If he gets rid of him, his only worry now is that he doesn't have so many suitable candidates to fill the power vacuum in the future.

    Tang Qiuli was very happy, smiling brightly. Being able to seize the rich land in the Songhu area in the south of the Yangtze River was his biggest gain today. He needed richer and more areas to expand his military strength in the future and lay the foundation for manpower and  With the material foundation and the money bag in Jiangsu and Zhejiang areas, Tang Qiuli once again saw the dawn of his ideal, and it became brighter.

    After the meeting, Chairman Chiang deliberately left Tang Qiuli behind and held a family banquet at the Chairman's temporary residence. Chiang's wife Soong Meiling also made an exception to attend. There were only three people. Although Chairman Chiang was unsmiling, Mrs. Chiang's Soong Meiling was a master of communication and talked and laughed happily.  , the witty words were full of flowers, and the atmosphere at the table was quite lively.

    Chairman Chiang lamented repeatedly that he was hiding in the rear to enjoy peace and quiet, but he handed over such an important burden to Tang Qiuli. How could he bear it? It was so difficult for Qiu Li. At this time of national crisis, a powerful enemy invaded.  , only a brave man like Qiu Li, who is young, strong and talented, can be worthy of such an important task. Everything in North China is enough to prove this. When he gets old, the world of the Republic of China will be like Qiu Li in the future.  young peopleof.

    As he spoke, he sighed and almost cried. He repeatedly warned that if you have any difficulties, you must always think of finding the central government. I will give my full support without reservation. We are now people in the same trench. Tang Qiu Li Mian  He was solemn and rigorous, and he nodded to Chairman Chiang's instructions, but he was muttering in his heart: Could it be that he had handed over the Central Army into his own hands, and was afraid that he would lose all his money, and was so distressed that he shed tears?

    The guests and hosts had a good time, at least on the surface, it was full of family reminiscing about the past. Chairman Chiang and his wife personally sent Tang Qiuli to the door. They watched Tang Qiuli's car drive away with complicated eyes. Tang Qiuli finally relaxed.  After finishing the meal, he was not nervous at all. He mobilized all his energy to deal with Chairman Chiang's true and false words, which were both audible and intangible. Mrs. Chiang seemed to be concerned and made insinuations. The best partner in the political arena of the Republic of China, there was something mysterious about it.  In words, it was a pity that I couldn¡¯t remember the taste of the delicious Hubei food on the table. Tang Qiuli smiled bitterly and shook his head. He didn¡¯t believe that this was just a family dinner to reminisce about the past.

    The car left the official residence of Chairman Chiang Kai-shek. The street scene in Wuhan in June. Flowers bloomed on both sides of the road. The air was filled with attractive floral fragrance, mixed with the water vapor blowing from the Yangtze River, straight into the nostrils. On the street, fashionable  The young woman was already wearing a summer dress that revealed her body curves, holding a flower umbrella, swaying through the market like a butterfly. Tang Qiuli didn't feel any of this, and was still immersed in the family banquet just now.

    Chairman Chiang gave himself the power to command the entire army, and it was definitely not because he helped him a lot on the issue of moving the capital, so that he could avoid moving the capital to Wuhan and be constrained by Wang Jingwei.  Over time, all the old man's recent arrangements are aimed at himself and weakening the potential threats to him. Whether this delegation of power is an attempt to weaken his own strength with the help of the Japanese, we can only wait until the Central Army takes the next step.  Only after action can it be confirmed.

    The car was still halfway through when it met the car of Chen Feng, the chief of communications of the Army. Chen Feng got into Tang Qiuli's car and handed him two emergency telegrams, one of which was sent by Feng Jiwu himself.  The Corps was fighting fierce battles with the Japanese army on the front line of Shanhaiguan. The Kwantung Army continued to add troops to the front line of Shanhaiguan. At present, the strength of the Kwantung Army has exceeded the strength of the *** Division, and Feng Jiwu is facing great pressure.

    On June 21, the Kwantung Army launched five brigade-sized attacks on the Shanhaiguan frontline blocking position. An unknown number of Japanese tank troops also participated in the attack. In addition, the Kwantung Army Air Force also participated in the attack on Feng.  Jiwu Corps blocked the bombing of the position, and the Japanese warships anchored in Liaodong Bay also bombarded the Suizhong forward position. The number of casualties of Feng Jiwu Corps that day reached more than 5,000 people. Currently, the battle is still fierce, and all positions are  It's still in our hands.

    The blocking front is firmly located on the more than 70-kilometer-long front line west of the Liugu River, Jianchang, Heishan, and Suizhong. Please rest assured, division commander, that our corps currently has two brigades of reserve teams that are not in use. The entire Niangziguan garrison corps  The officers and soldiers are confident and capable of completing the mission assigned by the division to block the southbound Kwantung Army's combat mission at Shanhaiguan. This was the assurance given by Feng Jiwu to Tang Qiuli at the end of the telegram.

    Tang Qiuli knew Feng Jiwu's character well. He was a man who did not talk about difficulties easily. He had a ruthless spirit in his bones. The battle situation in the Shanhaiguan area of ????Jidong was definitely not as easy as he said. The soldiers of the Niangziguan garrison were  Using his flesh and blood to block the continuous flow of troops of the Kwantung Army, Feng Jiwu jointly launched a three-dimensional offensive to attack the troops in Tianjin. In order to gain time to attack the troops in Tianjin, Feng Jiwu suffered casualties of more than 5,000 people a day, nearly half of the brigade. Such a consumption of troops, Feng Jiwu  Can the Corps afford it?

    One was a telegram jointly sent by Tang Qiusheng and Liu Tiehan from the front line of Tianjin. According to the deployment of the division commander, the ** division troops carried out a point-by-point attack on the Japanese positions outside Tianjin from the five directions of southwest, west, northwest, north and northeast.  Cleared. At present, the attacking troops of various ministries have advanced to a depth of 30 kilometers in the outer positions of the Japanese army in Tianjin. The Japanese army resisted tenaciously and refused to give up an inch of ground. The fighting in Tianjin was fierce. In addition, according to the intelligence sent by the Northeast Intelligence Station, the Kwantung Army had organized another group.  A force with a strength of about 100,000 was prepared to board ships from Dalian and cross the sea to reinforce the Japanese army in Tianjin.

    Tang Qiuli was extremely anxious. There was no need to worry about the battle in Tianjin. The ** division used the two main corps of Tang Qiusheng and Liu Tiehan, plus the two additional corps of Chang Feng and Yuan Jinghao, a total of four corps of troops and firepower, to attack Tianjin and occupy an absolute advantage. Once again  Taking over Tianjin is just a matter of time.

    He did not limit the time to capture Tianjin in order to attract the strength of the Kwantung Army and reinforce the Tianjin direction to reduce the pressure on Feng Jiwu's Corps. The key now is that Feng Jiwu's Corps is under great pressure, and the Kwantung Army continues to reinforce the Shanhaiguan Army by land.  Troops, if the battle continues for a long time, Feng Jiwu's regiment will suffer heavy casualties. If the Kwantung Army cannot be stopped, the entire Tianjin campaign, and even the plan to fight the Japanese army in North China, will be in danger.
