The two division commanders under the 66th Army were reassigned to the two new armies as chiefs of staff, and the new division commanders were officers from the Whampoa Military Academy.
The reason why Ye Zhao agreed was to put pressure on Yu Hanmou by the state government. Yu Hanmou lost Guangzhou last year, and the committee gave him a punishment of dismissal to stay in his post. On this show, Yu Hanmou clearly knew that this was a conspiracy by the Central Army to annex the local army, and he was also dumb. Coptidis, I can't tell the pain.
With Yu Hanmou's consent, even if Ye Zhao didn't like it, he had no choice but to do so.
In the name of forming the 66th Army, Liang Xiao ordered Ye Zhao to quickly take up his post in Nanjing, and the [-]th Army's military affairs were temporarily handed over to Sun Bing, the commander of the Special Warfare Division.
In this way, Ye Zhao was emptied directly. Although he was still the commander of the 66th Army in name, all the division commanders under him were replaced by generals with the background of the Whampoa Military Academy. Moreover, Liang Xiao also drew up a list of promotions to list the 66th Army. Some military officers with backgrounds in military academies and martial arts halls were promoted to the positions of chief officers, which completely disrupted the ranks of officers in the 66th Army.
Ye Zhao couldn't tell because of his hardships, as a general of the local army, he was struggling to survive in a narrow situation, he had to look at the face of Yu Hanmou, the local tyrant, and the face of the giant dragon in the government.
Fortunately, Liang Xiao just changed all the officers above the brigade level in the 66th army, and the officers below the regiment level did not change.
After finishing the chores of the 66th Army, Liang Xiao packed his bags and prepared to go to Kaifeng.
This time he went to Kaifeng, he only took eight confidential personnel and twenty guards, and took none of the rest.
Before leaving, he had a good time with the four 44 beauties in the villa, and then reluctantly left Wenrou Township, and boarded the special car bound for Nanjing Airport.
At Nanjing Military Airport, there are more than 40 planes, including fighter jets, transport planes, and passenger planes.
These........planes are the only air force formation under the Nanjing Garrison Command. After fighting so many battles, Liang Xiao has never been willing to use the air force. You know, the ones parked here More than 40 planes were purchased with donations from people all over the country tightening their belts. Losing one would be enough for him to feel distressed for a while. Besides, the pilots of the Air Force are also precious lumps. The pilots he dug from the Northeast Army, after several training , has come out of the concept of the local army, these... pilots are the key to his dominance of the blue sky in the future, so he will not dispatch the air force unless it is absolutely necessary Formation.
This time he went to Kaifeng, he transferred two fighter jets from the air force formation to escort him, he himself took the passenger plane, and the guards and confidential personnel took the transport plane.
From Nanjing to Kaifeng, if you go by land, it takes at most ten hours, and at most it takes two hours by plane.
After Liang Xiao boarded the plane, he squinted his eyes to rest.
He didn't open his eyes until the plane landed at the military site in Kaifeng.
"General, Kaifeng is here."
Chen Hua reminded.
"It's time to get off the plane."
Liang Xiao stretched his waist.
Immediately, under the service of Chen Hua, he put on the general's overcoat, and walked down the cabin with a brisk pace.
What is different from the past is that Kaifeng Airport looks very cold, there are seven or eight fighter jets parked at the airport, with the national emblem printed on it, outside the airport, it is a desolate area, not even a ghost.
Liang Xiao got off the plane and walked outside.
"General, the Fifth Theater has sent two vehicles to pick you up."
Chen Huadao.
"The Fifth War Zone......as a special agent leader, I'm very welcome."
Liang Xiao laughed at himself.
"Li Zongren, the commander of the fifth war zone, has always admired you very much, and especially admired your excellent command on the Songhu battlefield. After the victory in Wanjialing, he sent power several times to invite you to the fifth war zone to discuss the plan of the war of resistance. This time you come The meeting in Kaifeng, as the host, Commander Li, naturally has to show great enthusiasm."
Chen Huadao.
"That's not necessarily the case. He is the leader of the Guangxi faction, and I am from Huangpu, and I am deeply trusted by the committee. Isn't his enthusiasm for me just bowing to the committee?"
Liang Xiao laughed.
Chapter 1 Visiting Provincial Chairman Liu Zhi
Fifth theater, guest house.
Right now, the Battle of Xuzhou is in full swing. The National Army, with the Northwest Army and the Northeast Army as the main force, is fighting the Japanese army on the Xuzhou front.
Li Zongren, the commander of the fifth war zone, moved the theater headquarters and Henan provincial government to Kaifeng.
The city of Kaifeng has become a gathering place for the military and political officials of the fifth war zone. This time, Kaifeng is appointed to hold a military meeting. All officers above the lieutenant general of the fifth war zone must attend the meeting, including the head of Shandong Province and the deputy commander of the fifth war zone. Han Fuqu, Commander-in-Chief of the Third Group Army and Commander-in-Chief of Shandong Security.
After Liang Xiao moved into the Guest House for Senior Officers in the Fifth War Zone, he immediately sent a message to Jiang Tao, the Operations Division of the Military Command Bureau in Kaifeng, to call him to meet at the guest house.
After Jiang Tao came to the guest house, he let the left and right: back off, and then began to inform Jiang Tao of their mission for this trip.
Jiang Tao was taken aback when he heard the mission. He led people from Nanjing to Kaifeng to catch Han Fuqu, the commander of the Third Army. He is the well-deserved king of Shandong who wrote the criminal law of money and food in Shandong.
"I have a plan for the specific action. You bring the team members of the operation department into the meeting place in the name of protecting the safety of the committee. The meeting will be held at night, so it will be convenient for you to arrest."
Liang Xiao said.
"Boss, let's catch Han Fuqu this time, does the committee know?"
Jiang Tao was stunned.
"That's not what you should ask. Just lead your people to carry out the mission well. If something goes wrong, you, the director of operations, don't do it."
Liang Xiao said.
"Humble job understands."
Jiang Tao cheered himself up.
"Go down and get ready."
Liang Xiao waved his hand.
"Yes."
Jiang Tao turned around and went down to prepare.
This arrest mission must be kept secret, and Han Fuqu cannot be allowed to get wind of it and escape. If he is allowed to escape, the consequences will be disastrous.
Moreover, according to the information transferred to him by the intelligence team of the attendant room, Han Fuqu is plotting to unite with Liu Xiang, who is seriously ill in Hankou, and is preparing to launch an anti-Chiang operation.
At this juncture, any movement against the leader will be regarded as a traitor. The reason is very simple. Now is the period of the national war of resistance. All parties and individuals must obey the leader. Only in this way can there be hope for the war of resistance.
Liang Xiao didn't like Han Fuqu, if it wasn't for the commissioner's order, maybe he wouldn't have come to Kaifeng at all.
Historically, Han Fuqu gave up the natural dangers of the Yellow River, handed over half of Shandong to the Japanese, conspired against Chiang, was lured to Kaifeng by a commissioner, and was tricked into it in the name of participating in a military meeting. Han Fuqu's death sentence, in the whole process of the incident, the shadow of the military commander is indispensable.
History will repeat itself again, but this time it is not a person who executes, but he executes the capture task.
For the sake of prudence, Liang Xiao decided to meet someone, the head of Henan Province, Liu Zhi of the Northern Expedition.
This person was a well-known lucky general during the Northern Expedition. In the most glorious time, even Gu Zhutong was under his command.
This Kaifeng military meeting must be attended. He is a second-level general, the commander-in-chief of the second group army, and the backbone of He Jingzhi's department. , so it is also appropriate to visit him.
"Chen Hua, prepare some gifts, let's go visit Liu Zhi, the head of Henan Province."
Liang Xiao said.
"I've heard that Liu Zhi is greedy for money. If it's an ordinary gift, I'm afraid he won't like it."
Chen Huadao.
"I prepared gifts for him, not for his liking, but out of respect for the Huangpu instructors, I prepared some small gifts, such as biscuits, cigarettes and alcohol, and bought more."
Liang Xiao would never give money to someone like Liu Zhi.
"Yes."
Chen Hua hurriedly ordered the guards to go shopping on the street.
After preparing the gift, Liang Xiao led the guards to the Henan Provincial Government.
Arriving at the gate of the Henan Provincial Government Building, Liang Xiao got out of the car and asked the guards to report.
After the guard reported, within a few minutes, Liu Zhi, who was fat and big-eared, ran out of the building with his trusted adjutant, laughing as he ran, not to mention how enthusiastic he was, like a teacher and student who hadn't seen him for many years. In fact, Liang Xiao had no relationship with Liu Zhi before he made his fortune, including after he took office as the commander of the Nanjing Garrison, he still had no contact with Liu Zhi. The reason why he came to visit him this time is also because of the mission of arresting Han Fuqu.
"Fei Yu, long time no see, you are a distinguished guest if you can come in."
Liu Zhi was wearing the uniform of a second-level general, shouting while running.
There was a smile on the corner of Liang Xiao's mouth, no wonder the world called Liu Zhi a pig, and there was nothing wrong with him. His fat body was no different from a pig. The military uniform of a second-level general was worn on him, and there was a trace of general It doesn't have any prestige, but looks like a butcher in a vegetable market.
Of course, he would not say these words in front of Liu Zhi. After all, Liu Zhi is a second-rank general, a humerus of He Jing's lineage, and a blessed general in his seat.
"Boss Liu, Liang came here uninvited, and I hope you will forgive me."
Liang Xiao gave a military salute with a smile, and said neither salty nor bland words.
"I'm 1 happy that Fei Yu can come to see me."
Liu Zhi smiled openly, as if he had picked up a treasure.
"The committee summoned the senior generals to hold a military meeting in Kaifeng. I came early. Before the meeting, I came to visit you and ask you for some advice."
Liang Xiao behaved very modestly, although he didn't like Liu Zhi, he still had to give him the face he deserved.
"Come on, let's go in and talk."
Liu Zhi was very enthusiastic, and he also had a small calculation in his heart. Liang Xiao was an outlier among the Whampoa students. He gained the trust and appreciation of the committee during the Xi'an Incident, and rose rapidly. The speed was...they.. ...... The famous generals during the Northern Expedition were all ashamed. They thought that Hu Zongnan's promotion speed was fast enough. Who would have thought that Liang Xiao's promotion speed was faster than Hu Zongnan's, and he was promoted to the army in his 20s. General, this is really rare among high-ranking generals in the national government.
"President Liu, please."
Liang Xiao followed Liu Zhi closely and walked towards the provincial government.
When he came to Liu Zhi's office, he asked his secretary to make a cup of tea, and then chatted a little about the family.
Liu Zhi cried bitterly: "Wars are everywhere now, and Henan will soon become a battlefield. This time, I came to Kaifeng to hold a military meeting of senior generals, and it is also to deploy the next military operations in the fifth theater."
"Boss Liu, before the meeting, Mr. Liang wants to ask you something."
Liang Xiao said.
"If you have something to say, it's okay to say it. Although you and He Jingzhi have a lot of festivals, we are both generals of the central government. If there is something that can help, I am duty-bound."
Liu Zhi made it clear directly, his hidden meaning was to tell Liang Xiao, don't worry that he will help He Jingzhi.
"It's like this, is this military meeting, the venue of the meeting, and the surrounding security of the appointed seat all protected by your troops?"
Liang Xiao asked.
"It's natural, I'm appointed to hold the meeting, and I'll take care of the safety issue."
Liu Zhi said.
Chapter 191 Fudge Liu Zhi
"Boss Liu, what Liang wants to say is exactly this matter."
Liang Xiao looked serious, and said in a low voice: "Don't you find it strange that the commissioner ordered me to attend the Kaifeng military meeting?"
"What's so strange about this, you are the commander of the Nanjing garrison, and you control half of the Military Command Bureau. I heard that these days, the upper level has formed the Sixteenth Army and appointed you as the commander-in-chief. With your current status, the Kaifeng Military Conference is completely Those who are qualified to participate, besides, the committee has always valued you, and you won a great victory at Wanjialing during the Battle of Wuhan, how can this Kaifeng Military Conference miss you."
Liu Zhi laughed.
"All the generals above lieutenant generals came to the Kaifeng Military Conference. I heard that Han Fuqu, the deputy commander of the fifth war zone, is also coming."
Liang Xiao said lightly.
"Han Xiangfang is the deputy commander-in-chief of the war zone, the head of Shandong Province, and the commander-in-chief of the Third Army. He has 10,000+ troops under his command, but he lost the Yellow River natural barrier. I think he will be criticized at this meeting."
Liu Zhi said gloatingly.
"I'm afraid it's not as simple as being criticized."
Liang Xiao said.
"Oh."
Liu Zhi was taken aback for a moment, he obviously sensed something in Liang Xiao's words, and hurriedly asked, "Does Fei Yu know something?"
"If there is nothing else, will the committee allow me to come to Kaifeng to attend the military meeting?"
Liang Xiao said lightly.
When he said this, Liu Zhi immediately realized that this Kaifeng military meeting was not simple, and it might have something to do with Han Fuqu mentioned by Liang Xiao just now.
"What instructions does the appointment have?"
Liu Zhi asked hesitantly.
"There are no instructions, but the commissioner... gave me a secret order."
Liang Xiao purposely played tricks on him.
"What secret order"
Liu Zhi asked curiously.
"A secret order was issued to arrest Han Fuqu. He retreated without authorization in Shandong, disobeyed the military order, lost the natural danger of the Yellow River, and conspired against the central government. This time, the commissioner wants to make an example to others."
