The mansion is very lively, there are men and women, laughter is endless.
A bulletproof sedan was parked outside.
Liang Xiao got out of the car wearing a general's coat, and according to his temper, he would not participate in such a reception banquet where he would moan without illness.
But the initiator of this banquet is Chen Cheng, the commander of the Ninth War Zone, known as the small committee chairman, and the boss of the Civil Engineering Department, Chen Cheng still has to give face.
Liang Xiao came to the gate of the mansion, handed the coat to Chen Hua, and said: "This is a private banquet, you wait for me in the car."
"Yes."
Chen Hua took the coat, turned around and returned to the car.
He walked in from the lobby of the Chen mansion with healthy steps.
hall.
Chen Cheng and other senior military officers were chatting and laughing, when they heard him come in, they immediately fell silent.
"Feiyu is here, we all have been waiting for you for a long time."
Chen Cheng got up and smiled.
Liang Xiao walked over with a smile, left and right: After a scan, he found that the generals tonight are all generals with heavy troops in their hands, including Lieutenant General Lu Han of the Yunnan Army, Tang Enbo, Commander of the Group Army, Wu Qiwei of the Central Army, Wan Fulin of the Northeast Army, There are Sun Lianzhong of the Northwest Army, etc..., the lowest rank is lieutenant general.
Although he has never dealt with the warlords in these places, his intelligence department has collected information from the local army, including information from them... senior generals, some of them It was the first time for him to meet, but he could recognize them at a glance. He could even tell clearly what these people did a few months ago, including the senior generals of the Central Army Tang Enbo, Li Hanhun and so on. ...
To his surprise, there was Dai Li in this reception banquet. This guy was wearing a black Chinese tunic suit, standing in the hall very conspicuously.
"Commander, all generals, Jiu, I'm really sorry for the delay in dealing with the matter at hand..., I'm very sorry."
Liang Xiao smiled modestly.
"General Liang, you are so unreasonable. We people have been waiting for you for a long time, and you have to punish yourself for a few drinks later, otherwise, we will feel uncomfortable."
Tang Enbo said with a sinister smile.
For...Tang Enbo, he didn't have any good feelings for him. He felt like a mouse, jumping up and down all day long, as if the national army would not be able to do without him as the commander of the group army.
"Commander Tang, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I must drink a few more glasses later."
Liang Xiao smiled slightly, the so-called don't look at the monk's face to see the Buddha's face, this is Chen Cheng's mansion, of course we have to give the host some face.
Chen Cheng took the conversation and said with a smile: "Fei Yu just came to Wuhan, I'm afraid I don't know these people yet, let me introduce you."
"This is General Lu Han of the Dian Army. In the battle of Wuhan, General Lu Han led the Dian Army to fight in the outer battlefield. He heard that you... a famous general of the Anti-Japanese War came to Wuhan. He has always wanted to meet you. Today Tonight I will be the host and invite you to get to know each other."
Chen Cheng laughed.
After he finished speaking, Liang Xiao looked carefully at Lu Han. He was of medium build, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and slightly dark skin. He was wearing the uniform of a lieutenant general, and he had a refined demeanor. In comparison, he is still remarkable.
"General Liang, Lu Han of the Yunnan Army, you are lucky."
Lu Han smiled.
"General Lu, Mr. Liang has long heard that there is a tiger general in the Yunnan Army, but he has never met him. It is a great honor to see him today."
Liang Xiao said.
"I'm overwhelmed. Compared with your brilliant military exploits, I can't be called a general. I'm extremely ashamed."
Lu Han said.
"General Lu is too modest, and Liang was able to win the battle because of luck."
Liang Xiao said modestly.
Seeing that they knew each other, Chen Cheng introduced the next one: "This is General Sun Lianzhong."
"Hello, General Sun."
Liang Xiao greeted with a smile.
"General Liang, it is better to see once than to hear a hundred times. It is said that you are very young. I didn't believe it at first. After meeting the real person, I realized what it means to be a hero at a young age."
Sun Lianzhong is from the Northwest, and he speaks with the frankness of a Northwest man.
"General Sun was famous all over the world during the Great War in the Central Plains. At that time, I was still in the military academy. After so many years, I never expected to meet the hero who ruled the Northwest at Commander Chen's mansion. It was a great honor."
Liang Xiao's words were not hypocritical, he had already heard about Sun Lianzhong's deeds when he was in the Whampoa Military Academy.
"Hero, don't mention the bravery in the past, now it is the world of your Huangpu soldiers. In this battle in Wuhan, the Huangpu soldiers can be said to have raised their face. The 74th Army, the 18th Army, the 36th Army, etc., their performance on the battlefield is more impressive than others. We guys are stronger."
Sun Lianzhong also expressed his feelings.
"On behalf of the Whampoa soldiers, I would like to thank General Sun for his praise."
Liang Xiao smiled faintly.
Then, Chen Cheng introduced other generals to him.
As for the generals of the Central Army, he is basically familiar with them, so there is no need to introduce them.
When finally arrived at Dai Yunong, Chen Cheng said with a smile: "He doesn't need to be introduced, you two are old acquaintances."
"Brother Yu Nong, there is a saying that nowhere in life do we meet again."
Liang Xiao smiled meaningfully.
"Maybe it's God's will."
Dai Li also followed suit.
After a little chat.
After everyone was seated, the servants of the mansion began to serve food and wine.
When the food and wine are served, everyone raises their glasses.
Three rounds of wine, five flavors of food.
Chen Cheng said: "Fei Yu, tell everyone how to fight the next battle"
Liang Xiao hurriedly waved his hands: "You are all leaders of the army. In terms of experience, you are all my seniors, so I won't play tricks."
"Don't hide it, just say what you have to say, we all want to hear your opinion."
Liang Xiao said.
"I don't dare to take a high opinion, some superficial views, please give me some advice."
Liang Xiao said.
"General Liang is willing to express his opinion on the situation of the war, and we are all listening."
Lu Han said.
Chapter 169 Meeting the Generals
"After the outbreak of the Songhu Anti-Japanese War, the Japanese army accelerated the pace of full-scale invasion of China. In the Battle of Songhu, our 60 national army was defeated, and even the land of the country was almost lost. After the Japanese army entered the customs, it pointed directly at North China, and Shanxi fought hard for several months. Taiyuan fell, and the Japanese army drove straight in. Now they mobilize a large army to besiege Wuhan. After several battles, the combat experience of the troops has been improved, as long as we persevere, the victory in the Wuhan battle is just around the corner.”
If Liang Xiao said this, he didn't say anything. He just explained the battles he experienced from last year to this year. He didn't say a word about the future direction of the war. This made the generals very disappointed.
I thought that Liang Xiao could say some shocking opinions, but I didn't expect him to reveal a single word.
However, even so, no one dared to underestimate him. From Shanghai to Songhu, and then to Nanjing, and the great victory in Wanjialing, he has experienced no fewer battles than the generals present here, and what he has experienced... .......The battles were all victorious, and some battles were listed as classic battles by the Military and Political Council.
"According to Feiyu, whether the million-dollar national army can stop the Japanese army from attacking the Southwest?"
Chen Cheng asked.
"It's hard to say. The Japanese army is determined to win Wuhan, while our army is desperate. Both sides are trying their best to decide the outcome. If there is no third-party military force to interfere, whoever wins will lose. It’s really hard to say.”
Liang Xiao said.
"In this current situation, we... the senior generals are all in a fog, let alone... the troops below. With the pace of the Japanese attack, most of the world has become a Japanese army. If Wuhan is lost again to the colony of the bandits, Chongqing will not be safe. If the mountain city of Chongqing is lost, the national government will lose its foothold. Without a foothold, there will be no face for the national government. "
Tang Enbo said in a strange way.
"That's right. According to the latest news, the Kwantung Army has sent two divisions to Beiping to strengthen its control over North China. However, the main force of the National Army is concentrated in Anhui, Jiangxi, Sichuan, Chuankang, and Hunan. If the battle fails, the consequences will be disastrous."
Lu Han said.
"In my opinion, General Liang still has 10,000+ troops in Nanjing. With this 10,000+ troops, he can take over Shanghai in one fell swoop and regain control of the Jiangnan area. In this way, even if the Southwest is not protected, the government can move back to Nanjing. "
Sun Lianzhong said.
Liang Xiao glanced at Sun Lianzhong speechlessly, this Northwest man can stand and talk without pain in his back, if Great Shanghai was so easy to take back, he would have led his troops to capture it long ago, why delay until now.
Moreover, it will be the season of warm spring and flowers blooming soon. After the river thaws, the Japanese navy will appear in the Yangtze River Basin. Even if they can take Shanghai by then, they will not be able to stay there for a long time. At that time, the 60 national army could not stop the Japanese attack, let alone now.
"Commander Sun is elevating Liang. Sixty can't hold Shanghai. What's more, Liang has only [-] troops. He has tried his best to hold Nanjing."
Liang Xiao said.
"Commander Liang's words are a bit modest. The Xinhua News Agency radio station also spread widely, saying that General Liang led an army of [-] into Shanghai and wiped out more than [-] enemies. In order to support the battle in Wuhan, he had to give up the battle plan to continue to attack Shanghai. .”
Sun Lianzhong said in a daze.
Liang Xiao smiled slightly. Xinhua News Agency always reported good news but not bad news. Few of the news they broadcast was true. He did lead his troops to the suburbs of Shanghai and wiped out more than ten thousand people, but His strategic purpose was only to hold back the Japanese army in central China and prevent them from going south to reinforce the battle in Wuhan.
Of course, these words cannot be uttered, after all, speaking out the real combat intention will destroy the confidence of these...... senior generals in the war of resistance.
"In the battle of Shanghai, the Nanjing garrison suffered heavy losses. In this reinforcement battle in Wuhan, Liang only brought the 26th Army and the special warfare division. After the Wanjialing battle was over, I had the troops quickly return to defend Nanjing to prevent the Japanese army from central China from attacking." Take the opportunity to make trouble."
Liang Xiao said.
At this time, Chen Cheng took over the conversation and said, "Tonight is a reception banquet for Fei Yu. Let's not mention these important national events. Here, I want to announce something to everyone."
"Because the combat plan of the theater command was leaked, a group army of 10 people was divided and surrounded by the Japanese army, which brought great inconvenience to the battle in Wuhan. For this reason, I specially invited Fei Yu to Wuhan to invite him Come out and wipe out the spies hiding in Wuhan."
"These spies can be said to be pervasive. As long as there is a slight gap, they can get in immediately. Liu Cunyi, Major General Gao Shen of the theater command...was used by them, and he became a traitor planted by the Japanese in the headquarters. In addition , There are also two staff officers in the headquarters, both of whom are Japanese traitors."
"This matter makes me deeply disturbed. The dignified theater command actually hides the spies planted by the Japanese. If these... black apples are not eliminated, the theater command will never have peace day."
"Therefore, I asked General Liang to come to Wuhan to deal with espionage cases, no matter...
I hope that everyone will cooperate fully when it comes to localities or the army, after all, the danger of spies is too great."
When Chen Cheng said this, he turned his eyes to Dai Li, and said, "Yu Nong, leave this case to Fei Yu, do you have a meeting?"
"No, no, Fei Yu is recognized as the king of spies. With him, the spies in Wuhan can be easily wiped out. Dai is not talented, and he is willing to fully cooperate with Fei Yu's investigation, no matter...
If you need anything, as long as Dai can be used, I will definitely cooperate with you."
Dai Li said grandly, in fact, in his heart, he didn't want Liang Xiao to intervene in the military situation in Wuhan, after all, this is his territory.
But he couldn't refuse Chen Cheng's words. After all, Chen Cheng was the chairman of the committee, and his words represented the chairman to a certain extent.
"Thank you, brother Yu Nong. It's not necessary just to cooperate. When Liang entered the city, he brought a special warfare battalion with him. Whether it's arresting or interrogating, there are more than enough manpower."
Liang Xiao said lightly.
When he said this, Dai Li paused in his heart: Cursed, he came all the way from Chongqing to Wuhan, but in the end he didn’t get any meat, and now he’s not even given soup, how can there be such a reason.
Chapter 1 Seventy: The Judgment
After the banquet was over, Liang Xiao left Chen Mansion early. To be honest, he wanted to catch all the spies lurking in Wuhan, and then quickly return to Nanjing to handle military affairs. After all, Nanjing is his base camp. The department has been sending him secret messages recently, and there seems to be a problem with Shanghai intelligence, and I am waiting for him to go back and make a decision.
Therefore, the spy nest in Wuhan must be eradicated in the shortest possible time. Fortunately, he has already laid everything in place. As long as there is news from Miko Matsuki, he can do it at any time.
Early the next morning.
The theater command sent someone over to pass the message, asking him to participate in the public trial of Liu Cunyi early in the morning. This public trial was presided over by the military law office of the ninth theater. Almost all the participating generals were senior generals of the Sichuan army, such as Yang Sen, Wang Lingji, and Deng Xihou. etc....
Headquarters, Military Justice Building.
The generals participating in the public trial meeting have arrived.
This time the public trial meeting was very high-standard, even the commander Chen Cheng was present in person, as well as senior generals of the Yunnan, Guizhou and Hunan armies, senior generals of the Central Army, Xue Yue, Wu Qiwei, etc...
In addition to these generals, there is one more exception, he is... Dai Li, a man in a Chinese tunic suit, who is incompatible with these... Generals who wear military uniforms and carry the rank of general.
On the summit stage of the public trial conference, the chief general of the Ninth Theater Military Law Department served as the judge, and two senior military officers served as jurors.
On the left side below, a group of senior generals of the Sichuan Army sat. Their faces were very ugly. After all, Liu Cunyi was a member of the Sichuan Army. where to put your face.
On the lower right, sat Chen Cheng and the generals of the Central Army. After Liang Xiao came, he sat directly next to Chen Cheng.
"Fei Yu, Liu Cunyi won't bite back, will he?"
Chen Cheng whispered.
"Commander, don't worry, he has confessed to all the crimes he has committed, and there are all the witnesses and material evidence, he can't deny it even if he wants to."
