    Chapter 944 Fujian Layout

    After Tang Qiuli concluded the military joint defense meeting of the five southern provinces in Yunfu County, Guangdong, Youyunfu set off across the entire territory of Guangdong and rushed to Quanzhou, Fujian, to inspect the defense of Feng Jiwu Corps on the southeast coast.  (_-< Registered members of Piaotian Literature recommend this work >-)

    Yu Hanmou, Chairman of the Guangdong Provincial Government and Provincial Security Commander, seized this opportunity and sent a reinforcement division of more than 20,000 troops in the name of escorting Vice Chairman Tang to accompany him. Along the way, in the originally out-of-control Guangdong Province, Yu Hanmou  In this area, in the name of Tang Qiuli, troops were left in important towns and de facto occupations were carried out. After several attempts, they almost controlled the eastern Guangdong area where the opposition forces were concentrated, almost without a fight.

    Yu Hanmou's move to raise the banner was quite smart, and he knew how to leverage others' strength. To be honest, Tang Qiuli didn't like Yu Hanmou very much, so he betrayed the old chief, Nantian King Chen Jitang.  This proves that this person has evil intentions and is an act of a villain. In addition, the chaotic situation in Guangdong seen along the way is that all forces occupy the top of the mountain and make Guangdong, which has taken advantage of the coastal areas, a mess.  The impression is even worse.

    Tang Qiuli believed that any brigade commander randomly selected from the main regiments of the ** division would do a better job in governing Guangdong than Yu Hanmou. He actually had the idea of ??occupying Guangdong, but he had many scruples, so the man  The local powerful factions in the provinces were frightened, and the five-province joint defense agreement that was not easily reached was broken, and some losses outweighed the gains.

    After leaving the Guangdong border and arriving at Yongding, Fujian, the escorting Guangdong army still had one battalion left, but Yu Hanmou's chief of staff was always with him. When they arrived in Fujian, the mission was completed. Before leaving, the staff officer  When the president came to say goodbye, Tang Qiuli had a good impression of him and couldn't help but make fun of him.

    "Thank you Chairman Yu for your deep friendship and sending troops to escort you all the way. It seems that the situation in Guangdong is better than other places. Otherwise, only one battalion of troops would not be used to escort Tang to the Fujian border," he said.  , Tang Qiuli was smiling. No matter how thick-skinned Chief of Staff Yu Hanmou was, he couldn't help but blush.

    He could hear the teasing tone in the young Vice Chairman's words. After hurriedly saluting, he led his subordinates to leave quickly. Vice Chairman Tang already knew Chairman Yu's intentions. If he stayed longer, he might have heard something.  Speaking of which, the thirty-six strategies were the best. Tang Qiuli couldn't help but laugh, looking very proud.

    Mei Xue, who was beside him, rolled her eyes at him and said, "Qiu Li, you are bullying me again. He is very good." She seemed to blame him for being unkind. Indeed, Yu Hanmou's chief of staff was a smart man. He took care of things along the way.  His meticulous attention made Mei Xue have a great impression of him. Tang Qiuli couldn't hold back his laughter and replied: "Xue'er, Yu Hanmou took advantage of him this time. If he can bear this sentence, he should also remind him, don't  Thinking that others are fools." Mei Xue could only shake her head, her man never suffered.

    In order to welcome and protect Tang Qiuli when he arrived in Fujian, Feng Jiwu was very generous. He sent two regiments of troops to wait in Yongding, and even more than a dozen tanks. Since the danger in northeastern Guangxi, it was really  The commanders of the various corps in the * division were extremely nervous. As long as conditions were met, the level of protection for him would definitely be the highest.

    If Feng Jiwu had sent out such a large formation in the past, Tang Qiuli would definitely have severely criticized him. But he had just made a mistake, and it was extremely merciful to be allowed to continue to inspect the south by these big bosses. At this time, Mr. Tang also  If he learns to comply with public opinion and is afraid of being banned in the future, he will lose a lot of fun in life, which is not what he wants.

    Feng Jiwu's Corps headquarters is located in Quanzhou, close to the Taiwan Strait. The purpose of Feng Jiwu's Corps stationed in Fujian is to prevent the Japanese army from taking the opportunity to make a profit along the coast of Fujian when they attack Guangdong and Guangxi. On the day Tang Qiuli arrived in Quanzhou, he  A meeting of officers above the regiment level of the Niangziguan Garrison Corps was held to hear the specific conditions of the garrison areas of each unit.

    All in all, the senior officers of the Niangziguan Garrison Corps had not seen their division commander for several months. When Tang Qiuli walked into the conference room, the audience stood up and applauded like a storm, almost shaking the conference room.  Officers who have experienced hundreds of battles use this method to express their respect and love for their division commanders.

    At the meeting, Tang Qiuli did not listen to the report on military aspects, but focused on other aspects, especially on the support provided by the Fujian local government to the Niangziguan Garrison. When asked, the officers attending the meeting were somewhat emotional.  It seems that the ** division troops are not very popular in Fujian. It is estimated that these officers stationed in various places are full of grievances and anger.

    After careful questioning, it turns out that there are indeed many problems, which can be summarized in several aspects. The first is living habits and language barriers, which are the biggest problems that plague the troops. Food is not smooth, and it takes a lot of effort to communicate with local staff.  Not to mention the children, the second is the climate conditions and geographical environment, the ** division troops,I have become accustomed to fighting in the north. Wherever there is an old base, I can feel the destination with my eyes closed.

    Fortunately, in Fujian, it is difficult to even find a guide. The locals are instinctively disgusted and wary of the troops. As soon as they see the soldiers, they will stay away. The local government is even more uncooperative, and many soldiers cannot adapt.  The weather has caused many people to get sick, which has affected the combat effectiveness of the troops. They talked about a lot of difficulties, and Tang Qiuli listened attentively with a smile.

    These officers poured out all the grievances in their stomachs and felt much better. Tang Qiuli had long been mentally prepared for these situations. In history, when millions of troops from all over the country went south, it was because they could not adapt to the environment. The troops were very  The combat attrition reached more than 20%. When the ** division's regiments began to move south, Tang Qiuli strictly ordered commanders at all levels to pay attention to this problem and make various preparations in advance from the perspective of soldiers' psychological and material preparations.  item of work.

    It now seems that the non-combat attrition of the army has been kept to a minimum, and it is gradually adapting to the new environment. Regarding the issue of communication with the local people, Tang Qiuli only gave one idea: to recruit local young people to join the army. As for local governments  Regarding cooperation, before Feng Jiwu's Corps entered Fujian, Tang Qiuli had already written to the Executive Yuan of the National Government and appointed Lieutenant General Feng Jiwu, commander of the Corps, to concurrently serve as Chairman of the Fujian Provincial Government. The troops had provincial government orders and were still afraid of the bosses of the local government.  Don't they obey orders?

    This military meeting solved many problems existing in the army. The officers who participated in the meeting were energetic. Finally, Tang Qiuli said: "The people here are all commanders with thousands of troops, and they are stationed in one place.  Logically speaking, when you come to the Corps Headquarters for a meeting, you should treat everyone well. Unfortunately, I didn¡¯t bring Dayang with me, but if Commander Feng wants to entertain everyone, I have absolutely no problem with it, and I can take the opportunity to enjoy it. "

    The officers burst into laughter, Feng Jiwu grinned, and the division commander hit him on the head with a blackmail. As a result, Feng Jiwu was bleeding profusely. He hosted a banquet for all the participating officers in the most famous restaurant in Quanzhou. The authentic southern Fujian flavor originally attracted these northerners.  The soldiers who came were not very used to it. In their words, they ate so hard that there was a faint feeling in their mouths. Because the division commander was there today, it seemed to have turned into a delicious delicacy. There were bursts of laughter and Quanzhou citizens on the street listened.  Got to see.

    The evening breeze from the Taiwan Strait brought with it the smell of the sea. Tang Qiuli and Feng Jiwu walked side by side on the beach, looking very leisurely. More than a dozen special guards formed a protective net not far or near, Shan Hu  Standing a few steps away from Tang Qiuli, he tensed up all his nerves. Since the incident in Northeast Guangxi, Shanhu's protection of Tang Qiuli has been raised to the highest level.

    Tang Qiuli bent down, picked up a small shell, played with it in his hand, and asked Feng Jiwu, "Jiwu, after the troops stationed in Fujian, did the Japanese troops on the opposite island of Taiwan do anything unusual?" Feng Jiwu smiled contemptuously,  He replied: "They didn't dare to make big moves, they just stole cats and teased dogs. According to the reconnaissance, the Japanese troops on Kinmen Island have stepped up their vigilance and are extremely nervous."

    Tang Qiuli was very interested and asked: "Oh, are there all those little tricks?" "A few days ago, planes were constantly dispatched to conduct reconnaissance in the interior of Fujian. At first, the troops ignored them, but the little devils intensified their efforts. In broad daylight,  They also dared to carry out ultra-low-altitude reconnaissance. I ordered the air defense troops to teach the Japs a lesson. As a result, the 1st and 3rd Air Defense Brigades shot down twelve Japs reconnaissance planes in one day. At this time, the Japs on the opposite side,  More honest than a rabbit."

    "However, the reconnaissance planes of the Little Japs did not dare to come. However, a large number of Japanese warships were found in the coastal waters of Fujian. They should be the Third Fleet of the Japanese Navy. I am thinking about how to give a warning to the warships of the Little Japs.  There is no good way to attack, but I have an idea to capture Kinmen Island, establish a long-range artillery position on the island, and give the Japanese warships a sudden blow," Feng Jiwu said.

    Tang Qiuli shook his head and rejected Feng Jiwu's idea, and then said: "Jiwu, the Japanese warships don't need to pay attention to him. In this way, the troops will conduct large-scale training along the coast of Fujian to create momentum and make the Japanese troops on the opposite side feel nervous.  Just be afraid. The main force of your Corps will be transferred to other battlefields sooner or later. Fujian cannot involve too many of our troops. "

    On April 15, Tang Qiuli, in the name of the Director of the Military Commission's Former Enemy Command Post, gave instructions to He Yingting's Department of the Sixth Group Army of the Central Army, Liu Zhenbang's Department of the Eighth Group Army, Wang Fulin's Department of the Eleventh Army, and Wang Fulin's Department of the Eleventh Army gathered in Sichuan.  Wu Shifu's Ministry issued an order, ordering the above-mentioned troops to be divided into two groups and immediately move south. He Yingting's Ministry and Wang Fulin's Ministry were stationed in Guinan, Guangxi, and deployed defenses along Qinzhou, Fangchenggang, and Beihai to assist the 19th Army and the 36th Army of the Guangxi Army.  The army defended the southern coast of Guangxi.

    Liu Zhenbang¡¯s Department and Wu Shifu¡¯s Department were stationed in the Leizhou Peninsula of Guangdong and deployed along the lines of Xuwen, Leizhou, and Zhanjiang. At the same time, they ordered the 53rd Army of Guangdong Yu Hanmou and the 7th Guangzhou Guard Brigade to immediately go to southwestern Guangdong to fight withThe Central Army troops formed a horned force and deployed defenses along the coast of Guangdong.

    After the order was issued, the response of the Central Army and the Guangdong and Guangxi armies was beyond Tang Qiuli's expectations, which also made him resentful.
