    Chapter 299: The other way

    It became very quiet when they left the position. This order was beyond everyone's expectation. The Chief of Staff hesitated for a moment and saw that Tang Qiuli's expression was wrong, so he immediately went to convey the order.

    The one who was most surprised was Tian Erniu. He thought that he was lucky enough to avoid death. He never expected that in the blink of an eye, he would become the battalion commander, in charge of more than 500 brothers.  High official!

    He almost suspected that he was dreaming, so he pinched his thigh hard. The force was so strong that the pain made him grin. Then he believed that it was true and grinned.

    His brothers cheered in unison, and the surrounding soldiers clapped their palms red. Tian Erniu was a celebrity in the 258th Regiment. Everyone knew that he had good military qualities and was caring to his brothers.  The soldiers from other squads all wanted to be transferred to Tian Erniu's squad. Only today did they believe that good people are rewarded.

    But Qin Youliang and Liu Defu were slumped on the ground like a puddle of mud. They were escorted into a car by the soldiers of the special guard. Qin Youliang was a little better, his expression was relatively calm, and he seemed to have something to rely on.

    Liu Defu is dying, his face is gray. The one he relies on is Qin Youliang. Now this backer has also fallen. As for the things he usually does, once verified, he will be shot twice. If he goes away, there will be no return.  .

    Tang Qiuli appointed these two people on the spot, not on a whim or to show off his authority.

    Chen Chuan, the deputy commander of the 258th Regiment, had met him several times and was deeply impressed by him. He was a very capable young officer who didn't talk much and could always get to the point. He was able to overcome Qin Youliang's objections alone.  If you persist in sending out lurking posts, you will be qualified to serve as the leader of the 258th Regiment.

    As for Tian Erniu, although it was Tang Qiuli's first contact with him, Tang Qiuli saw a kind of sincerity in Tian Erniu's simple face at the moment when Tian Erniu's eyes met when he was saluting.  , his eyes flashed with spirituality and shrewdness, yet were as pure as a baby's. This was a man who was talented but not sinister and cunning.

    Tian Erniu's gaze instantly moved Tang Qiuli, especially when he listened to the other soldiers describing what happened, his love for their squad leader was beyond words. People who love soldiers like sons can lead an army well.  .

    Tang Qiuli firmly believes in his decision today. The 258th Regiment, under the leadership of Chen Chuan and Tian Erniu, will definitely become a fist force of the 29th Army.

    Later facts proved that Tang Qiuli's original decision was correct. The 258th Regiment really grew into a powerful force. In the 29th Army, it was famous for its bravery in combat and excellent discipline.  Compared with an ordinary team, it is not much inferior.

    Deputy regiment commander Chen Chuan hurried over, his body covered in mud and his face haggard. It was the chief of staff of the military department who conveyed the order in person. Only then did he know that the commander of the army was here and that there had been such a big personnel change in the regiment.

    Chen Chuan's life in the 258th Regiment was not smooth. Qin Youliang, the former commander of the regiment, excluded and made things difficult for him in many ways. Liu Defu did not take him seriously as the deputy commander. Chen Chuan gritted his teeth and endured it.  Do your best to consider the safety of the troops within your authority.

    The various fortifications, air defenses, and artillery holes of the 258th Regiment were only possible because of his hard work and persistence. Qin Youliang thought he was a hindrance at the regiment headquarters, so he kept him at a distance on the pretext that the third battalion needed on-site command.  sent away.

    Chen Chuan made a detailed report to the commander of the regiment in a clear and logical manner on the regiment's defense arrangements, fortification construction, troop distribution, firepower point layout, etc. Tang Qiuli admired this work style, praised him, and talked to him in detail  After some analysis, I found out the true purpose of the Japanese army¡¯s action last night.

    Chen Chuan said with certainty: "Military seat, the Japanese want to fake it and take the opportunity to seize our position and further threaten Wanping City, because our regiment's defense area happens to be the flank guarding Wanping. If the Japanese want to seize  Wanping, if we block our only access to Marco Polo Bridge, we will have to capture our position first.¡±

    Tang Qiuli fully agreed with Chen Chuan's analysis. He suddenly had an idea and decided not to rush to other units. He would just stay in the 258th Regiment for a few days and have fun with the Japanese to see whose acting skills were better.

    In the evening, the Chief of Staff hesitated to speak, as if he had something to say that was hard to say and was embarrassed. Under Tang Qiuli's questioning, the Chief of Staff told the truth.

    It turns out that Qin Youliang is the sworn brother of Song Zheyuan, the current deputy commander of the 29th Army, a veteran of the army, and the veteran commander, and the nephew of Qin Dechun. Deputy Commander Qin loves this nephew very much and treats him as his own son. Otherwise,  With Qin Youliang's ability and qualifications, the position of leader of the 258th Regiment would not be his turn even if it was flying all over the sky.

    "This is what the old army commander agreed to do in order to take care of Deputy Commander Qin's friendship. Today, military commander, you will give him hisDeputy Commander Qin will certainly not be able to cope with the dismissal of his nephew, both in his heart and on his face. He thinks that by attacking the old man's relatives as soon as you arrived at the 29th Army, you are clearing out dissidents and clearing the way for him to take charge of the 29th Army.  the way.

    After the Chief of Staff finished speaking, his face was filled with worry. He really did not want to see an internal split within the 29th Army.

    Tang Qiuli smiled calmly. He had already considered this relationship. Before he took charge of the 29th Army, he had a clear understanding of all the relationships within the army. The Chief of Staff's concerns were entirely out of concern for himself.  Director Wang is a very loyal and meticulous person. He reminds himself like this because he is afraid of intensifying conflicts.

    Tang Qiuli said with a smile: "Director Wang, don't worry, he won't run away unless the stone is moved. For the future of the 29th Army, sometimes decisive measures have to be taken. Deputy Commander Qin, I  Say it in person, I believe he will understand.¡±

    The words hidden in his heart were not said. If you, Lao Qin, overestimate your own capabilities, come out to fight indiscriminately, and stand up for your unsatisfactory nephew, I will even move you away. Don't let those with ulterior motives, take advantage of the quota, and use the troops.  Bloody guys, use you as their backbone and shield to push the enemy everywhere.

    Of course, these words can only be kept in the heart. Qin Dechun understands the situation and is still a highly respected veteran. Otherwise, he will be the first target of my purge, Tang Qiuli. Maybe Qin Youliang drinks a little wine, does not understand military affairs, and is even ridiculous.  Tang Qiuli could tolerate him for a while, after all, he had just taken charge of the 29th Army, and he had always hated the behavior of the emperor and his courtiers.

    However, when it comes to major military events that are related to the safety of the entire North China, Qin Youliang is so insensitive and treats it as child's play. This Tang Qiuli will never allow. Putting such a person in the front-line troops will miss important events. He must make up his mind.  , even if it means openly breaking with the veterans of the 29th Army, they will not hesitate.

    The next day, he sent a platoon of soldiers from the guard brigade to escort Qin Youliang and Liu Defu back to Peiping. He specifically ordered the platoon leader to escort these two items directly to the Pingjin Security Headquarters Inspection Office and hand them over to the Pingjin Police Headquarters.  Director Mei Ting personally interrogated and must obtain evidence. From this starting point, the Inspection Division will be responsible for conducting internal purges of the 29th Army.

    This was a move he considered. From this breakthrough, he would start a comprehensive purge within the 29th Army. It would also be an obvious signal to the veterans. The war was imminent. People like Qin Youliang and Liu Defu could not be allowed to stay in the army. Sooner or later, they would be  Disaster.

    The Inspection Division of the Garrison Headquarters is responsible for the purge work. It has a well-established reputation and a good reputation. He wrote a letter and gave it to the platoon leader, telling him that it must be handed over to Director Mei in person. In the letter, he gave instructions in person and started with  We should start with the two aspects of economy and life style and conduct a thorough investigation.

    This is also the experience he learned from later generations. If you want to move someone down, your political performance cannot be touched or seen. Whether you are loyal to the country and whether you are responsible for your job is even more irrelevant. There are only money and women. One check  That's right, that one can't escape.

    Putting this matter aside, what Tang Qiuli is currently thinking about is how to teach the Japanese troops on the opposite side a lesson. They can't do anything serious yet, and they can avoid misfires. Otherwise, they will always be remembered by the Japanese, and the 258th Regiment will suffer a big loss sooner or later.  , it is not Tang Qiuli's character to wait for the Japanese to come knocking on his door.

    He was very troubled. This kind of thing is a delicate job of walking a tightrope. If you don't do it right, you can slip your foot. He is not afraid of the Japanese. It is very troublesome for him to deal with the old man in Nanjing.

    After receiving Liu Tiehan's telegram, he led the Korean Iron Department of the 3rd Brigade of the ** and the Tong Batu Department of the 2nd Cavalry Brigade, with a total of more than 16,000 troops. They have arrived near Wanping and asked for instructions whether to continue to advance. Together with the 38th Army of the 29th Army  The division met and, in addition, the 1st Artillery Brigade Zheng Yong's Department arrived at the place at the same time.

    After receiving Liu Tiehan's telegram, Tang Qiuli was overjoyed. This old guy moved very fast. In one day and one night, he ran more than 300 kilometers. Tong Batu's cavalry brigade can be said to have four legs.  , Han Tie's troops are all infantry, which is enough for them, especially Zheng Yong's troops, they are all big guys. How did they arrive at the same time?

    Tang Qiuli guessed wrong this time. After receiving the telegram from the division commander to urgently reinforce the 258th Regiment near Wanping, Liu Tiehan immediately understood that the division commander had no choice, otherwise, the ** division could not be mobilized all the way.  of troops.

    Liu Tiehan drew on the map for a long time. With so many troops and the heavy equipment of Zheng Yong's artillery brigade, he could not reach the designated position within two days anyway, but he was worried.

    At this time, Zhang Quan, the logistics director, came in. He saw the deputy division commander frowning. When he asked about it, Zhang Quan was happy. It turns out that this is what happened. It was easy to handle. Didn¡¯t the logistics department import 500 trucks from abroad some time ago?  , those are all big guys, they can pretend to be young or old.

    Immediately afterwards, the Logistics Department held two driver training courses at the Huangyadong base area. The enthusiasm of the soldiers was clear.It has soared. Our ancestors have never played with this foreign gadget. If we have the chance, why not study hard? Now, every field brigade has six to seven hundred soldiers who can drive cars.

    In this way, the car was towed from the back. Artillery of various calibers from the Zheng Yong Artillery Brigade, the **3rd Brigade and the artillery all got on the car. All kinds of ammunition and baggage were loaded onto the car. Liu Tiehan reinforced 258  The regiment's troops immediately became a rapid reaction force composed of infantry, artillery, and cavalry.  Piaotian Literature registered members recommend this work
