Gui Yongqing and Huang Jie, who came back to their senses, yelled together unbelievably:

"Did you make a mistake? Why did you arrest us? What is Li Zongren? How dare you send someone to arrest us!"

"I want to see the principal! I want to see the principal! Don't mess around! I have shed blood for the party and the country!"

"No! We belong to the sixth theater! The commander-in-chief of the theater is Liu Junzuo (Liu Zhi)! Li Zongren has no right to arrest us at all! What is he!"

"What are you all still doing in a daze? Let me block these bastards with chicken feathers!"

"Are you deaf?" Luo Long shouted, "You still ask why you were arrested? You two bastards! You cowardly cowards! Brothers from other troops fought against the Japanese army, but you are fucking invincible! You simply don’t deserve to be a soldier! See the chairman? How dare you still have the face to see the chairman? To tell you the truth, it was Chief Li who gave the order to arrest you, but we belong to the second son! The second son’s words are the words of the chairman! Yes, what are you doing?" He looked fiercely at the subordinates of Guihuang and Huang who were rushing around, many of Guihuang's die-hard buddies had raised their guns faintly, "Do you want to rebel? Gui Yongqing and Huang Jie disobeyed the military order, so death is not a pity! If you want to bury them with them, just try to shoot them!"

The officers and soldiers of the Nanjing Army who came to arrest Gui Yongqing and Huang Jie loaded their bullets with wide eyes, and aimed their muzzles at Gui and Huang's hard-core buddies. Looking at Gui Huang's subordinates.

In the face of the murderous aura of the Nanjing Army and Ma's Army, even Gui and Huang's confidantes did not dare to act rashly. They could only watch Gui Yongqing and Huang Jie cursed while being tied up in a tank by the Nanjing Army and taken away.

Jiang Weiguo's method and process of arresting Liu Zhi were more dramatic. The arrest operation was carried out together with the arrest of Gui Yongqing and Huang Jie.

Since Bozhou, where Liu Zhi is at this time, is a bit far away from Xuzhou, if someone is sent to arrest them by car, it is easy to scare the snake, so Jiang Weiguo dispatched airborne troops. Of course there is no problem.

At that time, Liu Zhi was in the headquarters. Two major staff officers came to him and claimed that they had important matters to report to him. Liu Zhi believed it. As a result, the two majors drew their guns together and easily controlled Liu Zhi.

These two majors are latent agents of the Bureau of Maritime Statistics. They received orders from the headquarters of the Bureau of Maritime Statistics to carry out this arrest operation. At the same time, more than ten air force transport planes flew over Bozhou and dropped more than 200 airborne troops. , cooperated with the two majors, and easily captured Liu Zhi.

When some of Liu Zhi's cronies were about to rob people, Cheng De, the deputy head of the paratrooper regiment and commander of the first battalion, yelled sharply, "What's the matter? Are you going to be a rebel?" None of Liu Zhi's cronies dared to move. After all, it was not the enemy army that "kidnapped" Liu Zhi, but his own national army.

It took only one day for Liu Zhi, Gui Yongqing, and Huang Jie to be captured in Xuzhou by Jiang Weiguo.

Chiang Kai-shek, who received the report, was taken aback by Jiang Weiguo's "arbitrary decision-making" behavior. He quickly sent a telegram to Jiang Weiguo. The measures were not particularly severe. , Liu Zhi is the commander of the General Group Army, and the commander-in-chief of the sixth war zone. All three of them have extraordinary status, deep backgrounds, and extensive connections. Although they committed serious mistakes, they should not be treated so roughly. They should be sent to Wuhan. , to be tried by a court-martial.

Chiang Kai-shek seemed to be very persuasive and taught Jiang Weiguo that he should not be too young and vigorous in doing things, but must be far-sighted. He also ordered that the three people should not be killed or abused, and they were immediately sent to Wuhan by plane.

Jiang Weiguo replied very simply: "Liu Guihuang and the other three are not dead, so what is the military law? How is the military's morale safe? If you condone the unpardonable crimes of these three people, wouldn't it be condoning the corruption of the military discipline of the various departments of the national army? Wouldn't it be disobedience and disrespect? Is it the first of its kind to run away? If so, what victory is the Xuzhou battle?

Chiang Kai-shek sent a telegram in a meaningful tone after a long time: "I don't give orders, you have no right to kill people!"

Jiang Weiguo replied: "Even if my father doesn't allow it, I will kill these three people!" He replied in a very sincere tone, "Weiguo knows that Weiguo disobeyed his father's order and committed suicide without permission. Influence, even, the father will be unhappy and even furious because of this, but Weiguo would rather lose his father's pampering to Weiguo and make a firm decision.

If you don't kill these three people, the harm will be infinite. Military orders are like mountains, and military laws are ruthless. If everyone regards military laws as child's play, how can the army have combat power?How can we defeat the enemy?Emperor Wu of Wei once said, "Father and son are at home, and monarch and minister are responsible for affairs, so Weiguo dare not disappoint his father's high expectations, and dare not abolish the public with private interests!"

After Chiang Kai-shek received Jiang Weiguo's telegram, he did not speak for a long time and did not reply for a long time.

The day after Liu Guihuang and the others were arrested by Jiang Weiguo, a transport plane flew in from Wuhan, and Qian Dajun, director of the General Office of the Military Commission, got off the plane.

Qian Dajun came to Xuzhou to "inspect the troops on behalf of the chairman and express condolences to the labor force." The transport plane was full of oceans, medals, and letters of appointment. However, Qian Dajun's real purpose was to come to Jiang Weiguo on behalf of Chiang Kai-shek to discuss Liu Gui Yellow thing.

After a symbolic meeting and conversation with Li Zongren, Bai Chongxi and others, Qian Dajun hurriedly found Jiang Weiguo, and the two had a conversation alone.

"Second son, do you really want to kill Liu Zhi, Gui Yongqing, and Huang Jie?" Qian Dajun looked restless.

"What did Director Qian say?" Jiang Weiguo said indifferently, "Could I be joking about this kind of thing?"

"Second son..." Qian Dajun was so anxious that he almost turned around, "Is there any room for discussion on this matter? Liu Zhi, Gui Yongqing, and Huang Jie are not ordinary people! Liu Zhi was a member of the Whampoa Military Academy back then. Instructor, now he is the commander-in-chief of the group army and the commander-in-chief of the sixth war zone. How can such a person be killed at will? Although Liu Zhi made a mistake, he has made great achievements after all. Whether it is the Northern Expedition, Whether it was the pacification of the Guangxi Clan, the pacification of Tang Shengzhi, or the Great War in the Central Plains, he has made great military exploits, and he has made a lot of contributions!"

Jiang Weiguo looked at Qian Dajun coldly and said nothing.

Seeing that Jiang Weiguo didn't speak, Qian Dajun thought he was hesitating, so he hurriedly struck while the iron was hot: "As for Gui Yongqing and Huang Jie, it's the same.

Both Gui Yongqing and Huang Jie were first-year students in Whampoa. They participated in the Eastern Expedition and the Northern Expedition twice with the commissioner, and their contributions were not small. As for Huang Jie, his previous contributions were even greater than that of Gui Yongqing. During the Eastern Expedition and the Northern Expedition, he participated in the famous Battle of Longtan, defeated Zhang Zongchang in Teng County, and escorted the commissioner to leave Jinan safely during the Jinan Incident (Jinan Tragedy). It wasn’t that Huang Jie fought to the death and was almost captured by the Northwest Army. When the national army encircled and suppressed the Communists for the fourth time, Huang Jie fought desperately for days, defeated the Communist general Xu Qianqian, and won the victory of Baimasihe. By the way, Huang Jie fought against Japan It is also very meritorious. He participated in the Great Wall Anti-Japanese War five years ago, fought bloody battles with the Japanese army for five days and nights, killed a large number of Japanese troops, and won the Blue Sky and White Sun Medal.

Second son..." Qian Dajun said earnestly, "No one is perfect, who hasn't made mistakes?If you know a mistake, correct it. There is nothing good about it! "

Jiang Weiguo looked at Qian Dajun coldly: "Some mistakes are completely sins and unforgivable!"

Qian Dajun looked at Jiang Weiguo in astonishment, his heart became more and more flustered, he rubbed his hands together: "The appointment means that they can give them two ways, one is to be dismissed from their posts and investigated, put on trial and jailed, and the other is to make up for their crimes and meritorious deeds.

In fact, these two paths are very good, as long as you let them live and give them a chance, they will definitely change their minds and change their past..."

Jiang Weiguo still looked at Qian Dajun coldly: "Is military law a child's play? Director Qian, I heard that you are very knowledgeable in Chinese studies. I believe you must know the allusion of Sun Wu training female soldiers in the Spring and Autumn Period. Sun Wu was reused by King Helu of Wu. In order to test Sun Wu's ability to command troops, He Lu selected more than 100 concubines to train Sun Wu. Sun Wu divided the concubines into left and right teams, and appointed He Lu's favorite two beauties as the two captains. The military law was promulgated, but after the training began, the concubines did not listen to orders and laughed and fought. Sun Wu immediately ordered the two captains to be beheaded in public according to the military law. Even the concubines dared not ignore the military law, strictly enforced order and strict order.

Although He Lu was displeased with Sun Wu beheading his two beloved concubines to death, he also understood the importance of military law, and then reused Sun Wu, making Wu's army stronger and stronger, and Wu became one of the Five Hegemons in the Spring and Autumn Period.

Director Qian, do you really need me to repeat such a simple truth? "

Qian Dajun smiled bitterly, looked around, and lowered his voice: "Second Young Master, military law is of course not a trifling matter, but... you have to consider the ways of the world! Liu Zhi is not only an old subordinate of the committee, but also a Minister (He Yingqin)'s confidant, and Gui Yongqing, his wife is Minister He's niece..." He said, slowly took out something from his bosom, and stuffed it calmly into Jiang Wei Guo's hand, "Second Young Master, you hold your hand high, as the saying goes, 'you have to forgive others and forgive others', why bother to kill others? You must know that if you do this, you will offend many people..."

Jiang Weiguo looked at the things in his hand, he couldn't help laughing, it was a few checks, the total amounted to at least 100 million oceans.

Seeing Jiang Weiguo's smile, Qian Dajun was overjoyed, and put another small suitcase beside Jiang Weiguo in front of Jiang Weiguo. After opening it, there were at least thirty gold bars inside.

"Second son..." Qian Dajun whispered, "This is given to you by the family and friends of Liu Guihuang and the others. They also know that the three of them escaped in battle and had a great impact on the morale of the frontline troops. The money will be given to you." Second son, you use it to reward the troops and revive the morale of the troops, which can be regarded as making up for it.

Second son, you just hold your hand high! "

Jiang Weiguo put the check in his pocket unhurriedly, and moved the box of gold bars to his side, then he looked at Qian Dajun who was beaming with joy, and said indifferently: "Ocean and gold bars, I I want it, anyway, it is definitely not clean money, they take it from the people, I will use it for the people, and as for their heads, I also want it!" He said this is simply brazen, it is completely "taking money and doing nothing" .

Qian Dajun stared blankly at Jiang Weiguo, who "cannibalizes people with a soft mouth and strong hands".

Jiang Weiguo can be called "shameless" because he is a pragmatist and he is short of money. He will not refuse the money that is obviously a bribe to him, but at the same time he still wants the lives of Liu Zhi, Gui Yongqing and Huang Jie. He knew that such a big event must not be shaken.

For the execution of these three people, Jiang Weiguo was already mentally prepared to "offend many people". Gui Yongqing and Huang Jie were both first-year students in Whampoa. He, together with He Yingqin, Gu Zhutong, Qian Dajun, Jiang Dingwen, Chen Cheng, Zhang Zhizhong, and Chen Chengji, is called the "Eight King Kong" of Chiang Kai-shek, and he is also called the leader of He Yingqin's faction together with Gu Zhutong, Qian Dajun, and Jiang Dingwen. The "Four Great King Kongs" (five of Chiang Kai-shek's "Eight Great King Kongs" are He Yingqin's people, which also shows the strength and broad influence of He Yingqin's faction).

If Jiang Weiguo killed Liu Zhi, Gui Yongqing, and Huang Jie, he would certainly offend many people, but from the perspective of national interests and the overall situation of the war, he was ruthless and law-abiding, so he must be killed.

After staying for a while, Qian Dajun said with difficulty: "Second Young Master, they are not ordinary people..."

"The more this is the case, the more you have to kill!" Jiang Weiguo sullenly said, "Liu Zhi is a veteran of the national army, Gui Yongqing and Huang Jie are both disciples of Huangpu Emperor, they have such high positions and status, everyone respects them, but they But how do you repay the country? The emperor broke the law and committed the same crime as the common people! Let alone them!"

Qian Dajun sighed for a long time. He knew that he had failed as Chiang Kai-shek's intercession representative, and that he had also failed as the intercession representative of Liu Guihuang's relatives and friends.

For Liu Zhi, Gui Yongqing, and Huang Jie, Chiang Kai-shek's attitude was very complicated. First, he knew that Jiang Weiguo was doing the right thing. Second, he couldn't bear it and had to consider all aspects of influence.

Regarding Liu Zhi, Chiang Kai-shek tended to kill him, because Liu Zhi supported He Yingqin to replace Chiang Kai-shek during the Xi'an Incident, so Chiang Kai-shek had to be quite annoyed. Getting rid of Liu Zhi could also attack He Yingqin. After all, Liu Zhi was He Yingqin's right-hand man. One, but Liu Zhi did have a lot of old achievements, Chiang Kai-shek just couldn't bear it; for Gui Yongqing, Chiang Kai-shek was the same as Liu Zhi, but he just couldn't bear it. Gui Yongqing is He Yingqin's nephew and son-in-law. , also hit He Yingqin, but Chiang Kai-shek had to consider the consequences of He Yingqin's complete anger; but for Huang Jie, Chiang Kai-shek really couldn't bear it, because Huang Jie had "rescued him".

Therefore, when Chiang Kai-shek was vacillating, Jiang Weiguo cut the mess first and then cut the mess quickly. Although his move made Chiang Kai-shek unhappy, it did not make Chiang Kai-shek furious.

On July 7, Liu Zhi, Gui Yongqing, and Huang Jie were publicly executed by Jiang Weiguo in Xuzhou, and their bodies were transported to the positions of various troops for tour display.

Immediately, nearly one million national troops on the front line in Xuzhou were all shocked, and all of them were in awe of the harshness of military law.

Chapter 360 The Decisive Battle in Xuzhou (5)

Before the formal execution of Liu Zhi, Gui Yongqing, and Huang Jie, Jiang Weiguo visited them.

In the special prison of the Commander's Headquarters of the Fifth War Zone, Jiang Weiguo calmly asked the three of them one by one through the dense iron bars: "Do you have any last words to say?"

Liu Zhi smiled wryly, and his eyes were filled with an extremely unwilling resentment: "Unexpectedly, I worked for Lao Jiang for 14 years, and finally died in the hands of Xiao Jiang! Jiang Weiguo, you are so cruel!"

Jiang Weiguo replied blankly: "It's not me who kills you, but yourself.

As the commander-in-chief of the higher-level theater and the commander of the group army, you should have performed your duties and defended the country and the people, but how did you do it?You sent yourself to a dead end, and you can't blame others! "

Gui Yongqing's face was ashen and trembling, and he kept begging for mercy: "Second son, I know I was wrong! I dare not do it again! Please! Hold your hand high and let the net go! I will repay you like a cow and a horse. !You want me to go to jail, or you want me to do crime and meritorious deeds, I will definitely listen to you! Second Young Master, please! I really beg you! I don’t want to die!” He wailed loudly as he said!

Jiang Weiguo was still expressionless: "What's the use of a wine bag like yours?"

Xiao Yao, who was following Jiang Weiguo, looked at Gui Yongqing, and said mockingly, "I have already said, 'I thought you were a pig-like person, but I didn't expect you to be a human-looking pig'.

I knew why I had to do it today!It's your own fault!Self-inflicted, can't live! "

Huang Jie was also pale and his legs were weak. He said in a trembling voice, "Second Young Master, Second Young Master, do you still remember? It was I who handed over Song Ziwen's Tax Police Headquarters to you. If it wasn't for me, how could you have Where there is the Nanjing Army in our own troops, there are so many victories.

Also, I saved your father!If you don’t look at the monk’s face, you should also look at the Buddha’s face!I have contributed to the party and the country! "

Jiang Weiguo remained expressionless: "Just talking nonsense! The Tax Police Headquarters belong to the country, not yours. Why did you hand over the Tax Police Headquarters to me? As for you saved my father, yes, yes Really, but didn't my father give you a reward? Your contribution has already been rewarded.

If you are meritorious, the state will reward you; if you are guilty, the state will punish you. It is only right and proper! "

Huang Jie suddenly howled hysterically: "Jiang Weiguo! You are so unfeeling! Don't think that you can do whatever you want just because you are the principal's son! The rabbit bites people when it is in a hurry! You are so arrogant, there will be retribution sooner or later!"

Jiang Weiguo lit a cigarette, raised his legs and left, he didn't want to continue chatting with these three elm-headed sinners.

Jiang Weiguo discovered that among the generals of the national army, the loyal ones were so loyal that people wept, and the incompetent were incompetent to the point of incompetence. With such an army that has rotted to the bone, how can China be revitalized?It's really time to clean it well, if it can't be cleaned, you can only start a new stove.

An hour later, Liu Zhi, Gui Yongqing, and Huang Jie were escorted to the center of Xuzhou by the gendarmerie from the war zone.

Among the three of them, Liu Zhi looked numb and silent, Gui Yongqing almost collapsed, and Huang Jie struggled desperately and cursed endlessly.

After a random shooting, the three of Liu Guihuang fell into a pool of blood together. According to Jiang Weiguo's prior instructions, the military police who executed the execution aimed their guns at the chest and abdomen of the three of Liu Guihuang, so the three of them looked intact and were not killed. The bullet broke.

Jiang Weiguo immediately ordered that three large trucks be used to carry the bodies of Liu Guihuang and three people to the positions of various troops for "public exhibition" in order to shock the morale of the army. To be honest, Jiang Weiguo wanted all officers and soldiers in Xuzhou to see with their own eyes the fate of Liu Guihuang and the others.

Liu Zhi, born in Ji'an, Jiangxi Province, graduated from Baoding Army Officer Academy, a second-level general of the National Army, and served as an instructor at the Whampoa Military Academy. He participated in many wars such as the Northern Expedition and the Central Plains War. The commander of the Second Army was executed in Xuzhou by Jiang Weiguo because of his poor command and escape in the battle of Shangqiu;

Gui Yongqing, a native of Guixi, Jiangxi Province, graduated from the first batch of Huangpu Military Academy, a lieutenant general of the National Army, and served as the commander of the 27th Army of the National Army during the Xuzhou Battle. Xuzhou;

Huang Jie, a native of Changsha County, Hunan Province, a graduate of the first batch of Huangpu Military Academy, a lieutenant general of the National Army, served as the commander of the 8th Army of the National Army during the Xuzhou Battle, and was executed by Jiang Weiguo for disobeying orders and running away during the battle in Yongcheng County in Xuzhou.

There is no need to say much about the background, identity, seniority, and connections of the three of Liu Guihuang, but after they seriously violated the military law, Jiang Weiguo executed them all without mercy and without hesitation. The psychological shock brought by the various ministries of the National Army and even the entire National Army was no less shocking than that of Shi Potian. Even Li Zongren and Bai Chongxi were shocked by Jiang Weiguo's "cruel and merciless".

After seeing the bodies of Liu Guihuang and the other three, the officers and soldiers of the national army were in disbelief and shocked:

"My God! General Liu is the commander-in-chief of the Sixth War Zone! He is also the commander of the Second Army! He has been with the Chairman for so many years, but he never thought that the Second Young Master would kill him as well!"

"Gui Yongqing and Huang Jie are both first-year students of Whampoa! They are both the emperor's protégés and confidantes of the chairman. I thought they were fine, but I didn't expect that they would be shot dead all at once!"

"Even Commander Liu, Commander Gui, and Commander Huang of the Central Army will be executed for violating military laws, let alone us!"

"Yes, yes, the military law is ruthless! You really can't violate the military law! Disobedience, disrespect, and desertion will really kill you!"

Jiang Weiguo knew that being so "vicious" would definitely offend many people, and even bring him trouble and hidden dangers, but he had no regrets, because it was worth it.

Jiang Weiguo's prediction was absolutely correct. After Liu Guihuang and the other three were executed by him impartially, the national army on the Xuzhou battlefield was shocked and frightened. No one dared to underestimate military law. Qi is in awe of military law.

In the ensuing battle, all the units of the national army that participated in the war fought desperately. The higher-ups issued an order to retreat, but the brigade did not receive it, so none of the brigade commander, deputy brigade commander, or regiment commander dared to abandon their positions, and fought so hard that the entire brigade and the entire army were wiped out without retreating an inch.

The great increase in the fighting will of the national army caused the Japanese army to suffer a lot, and it became more and more difficult and stagnant.

On July 7, the 30th Division of the Japanese Army finally broke through Jiawang Town after paying a heavy price of nearly 10 casualties. Injured officers and soldiers of the two armies struggled and squirmed among the dead, dying.

"In Jiawang Town, where only the name is left, corpses are scattered and broken limbs are scattered. It is tragic and shocking. The Chinese army resisted fiercely and tenaciously, but was eventually destroyed by the imperial army. You can see everywhere the Chinese army abandoned when they fled in panic. The imperial army seized a lot of weapons, ammunition, supplies, etc. The 177th Division of the Chinese Army in the town should have been completely annihilated. The division headquarters was splattered with blood and corpses were strewn about. There are also cursing words such as "Tang Enbo abandoned his allies, fled in battle, cut into pieces, and died a good death" written in blood.

It can be judged from this that the 20th Corps of Tang Enbo's Division of the enemy's Central Army in Jiawang Town abandoned the 177th Division of the Li Xing Central Division of the enemy's local army that was fighting in coordination, resulting in the annihilation of Li Xing Central by the imperial army.

The internal contradictions of the Chinese army and the inferiority and ugliness of the Chinese people are pathetic and ridiculous! ..." Japanese war correspondents described in news reports.

The 10th Division that captured Jiawang Town seems to have achieved a great victory. It wiped out the 177th Division of the National Army, defeated the 20th Army and the Provisional 2nd Cavalry Division, and collected a large amount of weapons, ammunition, and supplies in the town. Including thousands of firearms and dozens of artillery pieces.

Lieutenant General Ji Gu reported in a telegram sent to the general in the temple: "After half a month of bloody battle, our division lived up to expectations and finally defeated the stubborn Chinese army in Jiawang Town. Li Xingzhong wiped out a total of more than [-] enemy soldiers. The corpses of the enemy soldiers in the town were piled up like hemp and countless, and the enemy wounded more than a thousand soldiers, all of whom were abandoned. Attack, make persistent efforts, live up to the kindness of His Majesty the Emperor and the esteem of His Excellency the General, go straight to Huanglong and break through Xuzhou!"

The general in the temple who received the report from Lieutenant General Jigu was both happy and worried. The capture of Jiawang Town meant that there was no barrier on the periphery of Xuzhou. Xuzhou City was completely exposed to the front of the 10th Division. However, the general in the temple was very worried. , the 10th Division has been exhausted after experiencing the fiasco of Taierzhuang and the bloody battle in Jiawang Town, and the division has penetrated so deeply that it has reached a dangerous point. The strength of the combat power has exceeded the expectations of the generals in the temple. Therefore, the generals in the temple do not support the 10th Division to directly attack Xuzhou. If they attack Xuzhou, the 10th Division's front line is indeed too long. The number and density of the Chinese army they are facing The rising tide will also raise all boats, so he sent a telegram to Lieutenant General Ji Gu, ordering "Although the 10th Division has won consecutive battles, the generals are exhausted. They can rest on the spot for two or three days. One is to recover their vitality and replenish ammunition and equipment. The second is to use static braking to observe the changes in the enemy's situation and prevent accidents!"
