235 The Arrogant Li Guosheng

The arrogant Li Guosheng

"For the needs of revolutionary development, after research and decision by the central government, the Ninth Army of Shandong Province was expanded to the Ninth Army of the Revolutionary Army of the Republic of China, and appointed Li Guosheng, the former commander of the Ninth Army, as the commander-in-chief of the Army.... The former chief of staff of the Ninth Army, Jiang Baili, was appointed as the chief of staff of the Ninth Army..... The former deputy commander of the Ninth Army, Li Guanghua, was appointed as the deputy commander of the Ninth Army..... Other officers at all levels under the Ninth Army, were appointed by Li Guosheng, the commander-in-chief of the Ninth Army, and submitted to the Ministry of National Defense for filing..."

"In addition, in order to ensure smooth liaison between the Ninth Army and the Ministry of Defense, Lieutenant Colonel Li Mengjie, deputy director of the Communications Department of the Ministry of Defense, was appointed as the Deputy Director of the Communications Department of the Ninth Army..... The Ministry of Defense of the Central Government ordered... Chairman of the Central Government, Chiang Kai-shek...."

After confirming that the appointment and removal documents were undoubtedly true, Li Guosheng's face showed a happy expression. He smiled and said, "Chief of the staff, Jiang Baili of the Nanjing Central Government, did not disappoint us... In less than a week, he fully fulfilled his promise and issued the army expansion and appointment and removal documents... From now on, our Ninth Army has truly become a nationally recognized army group..."

After saying that, he said to the heart-to-hearted people behind him with a firm command: "Brothers, now I order that the Ninth Army will officially start the relevant reorganization from today.-.... All reorganization matters will be carried out by the Chief of Staff. I hope everyone can obey the orders, otherwise, military law will be carried out..."

"Yes, Commander-in-Chief..."

Li Guosheng issued an order and gathered in the command center. He immediately scattered. However, Li Mengjie, deputy director of the Communications Department of the Ninth Army, was ordered to come to Li Guosheng, who had not even looked at him more from beginning to end. He looked very beautiful and could be called the "Yizhihua" of the Communications Special Services Department of the Ministry of National Defense. In his heart, he felt as if he had suffered a huge blow, and was extremely frustrated.

However, when he thought of the tasks given to him by his superiors and the younger brother who was still in the hands of the Nanjing central government, Li Mengjie had to resist the grievances in her heart. After standing upright because of her lady's military uniform, she walked directly to Li Guosheng, saluted and reported in her crisp and pleasant voice.

"Report to the commander-in-chief and deputy director of the Communications Department of the Ninth Army, Li Mengjie, came to report, please instruct..."

After leaving his subordinates, they can finally take a close look at Li Guosheng in front of him. They have to admit a fact: Li Mengjie in front of him, even if he is put in later generations, is a rare beauty. As for his beautiful wife Lan Ruoxin, one is gentle and elegant, and the other is full of energy, and the whole body exudes a hint of military spirit and vitality...

Although he knew that Li Mengjie in front of him must have been a spy sent by Jiang Jiang, Nanjing, who came to monitor him or even carried out intelligence activities. From the bottom of his heart, he felt disgusted with such people. However, when facing beautiful women, Li Guosheng, who has been living in the army and rarely comes into contact with living in wine and food, he still couldn't help but look at him twice.

Of course, after reading it, Li Guosheng's face quickly showed a faint expression because of the rationality that soldiers should have. He spoke to Li Mengjie without any expression: "Director Li, since the Ministry of National Defense has appointed you as the deputy director of the Communications Department, I have nothing to say. As for your office and residence, I will ask the Communications Department to arrange you for you as soon as possible, and I will never let you down... Adjutant Liu, arrange two people immediately. Take Director Li to the Communications Department to report..."

"Yes, Commander-in-Chief..."

Li Guosheng's performance once again hit Li Mengjie's confident heart. In Li Mengjie's eyes, with his charm and the various things that Yu Special Training learned, Li Guosheng was fascinated by not only making Li Guosheng fascinated, but at least he could let the other party look at him a few more words and say a few more words to him to attract the other party's attention and attention. However, unexpectedly, the other party actually sent him away just by looking at him.

It is obvious that from the beginning, Li Guosheng was full of vigilance about himself...

.In this case, can I still successfully complete the surveillance mission of my superiors and rescue my younger brother from the secret service... Thinking of the only relative who was still controlled by the secret service, when I saw Li Guosheng with indifferent expression in front of me, Li Mengjie, who was full of doubts about this mission, had the urge to cry.

However, her years of training and spy career have already made her develop an expression without any change. She endured the pain in her heart, followed the guards and quickly left the headquarters.

Although the constant changes in Li Mengjie's heart were not reflected on her face, the changes in her eyes still did not escape Li Guosheng's sharp eyes.

Seeing the slim figure on the opposite side disappearing quickly at the commander's office, Li Guosheng sighed directly and said to himself: "Such beautiful woman is actually engaged in intelligence work. However, looking at her expression, there should be some unscrupulous difficulties in Petroleum... However, since I have come, I can't just let her take root in my Ninth Army and become the eyeliner of Chiang Kai-shek... Adjutant Liu ordered Director Zhang of the Intelligence Department to come to my office immediately. I have something important to explain..."

Li Mengjie's affairs were just an episode in life for Li Guosheng, who held hundreds of thousands of troops and held the military and political power of a province. After giving several orders to Zhang Tianyu of the Intelligence Department, Li Mengjie, who was wronged, was directly thrown away by Li Guosheng. Because at this moment, there are more important things that need Li Guosheng to do.

The appointment documents of the Nanjing central government successfully arrived at Li Guosheng, and after the news of the establishment of the Ninth Army of Compatriots across the country through clear code power and newspapers and other related means, a clear code power was issued in less than a day, followed by the Jinan City Ninth Army General Command...

"All officers and soldiers of the Ninth Army, all military and civilians of the Shandong Provincial Government. From now on, unconditionally support the decision of the central government and support the actions of the central government. At the same time, in the near future, in accordance with the orders of the central government, heavy troops will be dispatched to attack local warlords in Henan and Hebei provinces, alleviate the frontal military pressure of the central government in Nanjing, and end the Central Plains melee as soon as possible... Commander-in-chief of the Ninth Army, Chairman of Shandong Province, and Commander of the Security Commander of Shandong Province, and the notice of military and civilians of the whole province..."

When the electricity was launched, the whole country was in an uproar... Li Guosheng, who has always been valued by major local forces because of the halo of "anti-Japanese heroes". For the first time, because of the strong strength of a group of troops and hundreds of thousands of heavy troops in his hand, he was valued by all parties.

Of course, attention should be paid to it. As of now, those who have taken action are truly in action. Without surprise, all of them are anti-Chiang troops in Henan and Hebei provinces bordering Shandong Province...

The telegram was heard, and tens of thousands of troops began to assemble to the border under the orders of Yan Xishan, Feng Yuxiang, and even Han Fuqu, to prepare to defend against Shandong Provincial troops and even take the initiative to attack Shandong Province. At the same time, a steady stream of military intelligence began to spread from all over the place to the secret intelligence department of the Ninth Army in Jinan City...

"Director, this is the latest information sent back by intelligence personnel from Henan and Hebei provinces. All of them are related to the mobilization of troops..." The head of the Intelligence Analysis Section of the Intelligence Department, holding a stack of telegrams, walked quickly to Zhang Tianyu and reported.

"The latest military mobilization situation of the anti-Chiang army in the two provinces... This is the information the commander-in-chief needs most now... Section Chief Wang, you must remember that in the future, all information in this area will be sent directly to me. I will personally identify it and then report it to the commander-in-chief..." Director Zhang Tianyu ordered with a serious face.

"Yes, Director..."

After a quick glance at the intelligence in his hand, Zhang Tianyu didn't care about it. He took the telegram and hurriedly left the intelligence department, and walked towards the headquarters of the Intelligence Department, which was only separated by a wall by the Intelligence Department in the bureau...

Li Guosheng's office is Jiang Baili, the chief of staff who is training the troops. Perhaps because of the reason why he jogged all the way, he was sitting in front of Li Guosheng, gasping slightly...

Seeing Li Guosheng with an increasingly solemn expression in front of him, Jiang Baili asked in a deep voice: "Commander-in-Chief, what's the matter?"

"You can take a look at these telegrams first. Before we could move, Feng Yuxiang and Yan Xishan, who were entrenched in the two provinces, were a little unstoppable. Regardless of Han Fuqu's dissuasion, he directly dispatched heavy troops to press on our Shandong Province. He simply didn't take my Ninth Army seriously..." Li Guosheng handed the information to Chiang Bai with anger...

"One hundred thousand elites are coming quickly towards the border, and they are also taking an offensive posture..." Chief of Staff Jiang Baili couldn't help but exclaim. After confirming that the information was accurate, Jiang Baili's brow suddenly frowned. He asked tentatively at Li Guosheng.

"Commander-in-Chief, you mean..."

"A part of the promises given to us by the Nanjing Central Government have been fulfilled. Next, it is time for us to fulfill our promises to the Nanjing Central Government... At the same time, it is also let Feng Yuxiang and Yan Xishan know that the reputation of our Ninth Army is definitely not something they can violate... It is best to tie them into the current Han Fuqu, and the first idea when we see us is to avoid it... "Li Guosheng expressed his thoughts with a murderous intent.

"Commander-in-Chief, it is necessary to take the initiative to attack these two armies... But, I want to know, what is our ultimate goal in this military operation?" Jiang Baili directly asked the most critical question.

"In terms of territory, a Shandong Province, plus the next Liaodong Peninsula, is enough for us. Therefore, I do not have much demand for the territory yet... Of course, to ensure the smooth progress of the entire annihilation war, you can secretly send a telegram to Han Fuqu before sending troops. This time, our army will not have any territory in the two provinces. During our attack, as long as his troops remain unmoved, all the territory captured by our Ninth Army will be given to him for free after the war is over..." Li Guosheng affirmed.

He worked hard to send troops, not for the territory, but also gave the captured territory to his former enemy for free. The price was only to exchange for the other party to control the troops during his own dispatch... Chief of Staff Jiang Baili immediately showed a puzzled expression on his face and asked with a suspicion.

"The Commander-in-Chief, at the cost of not sending troops, exchanged all the territory we captured from us... As expected, Han Fuqu, who knew the combat effectiveness of my Ninth Army, would definitely agree to this condition. But, are we too losing? I want to know that since this time we sent troops, we worked hard to send troops, just to train troops..."

"Standard training is one aspect... However, in addition to training, I have a more important purpose. As long as this purpose is achieved smoothly, to a certain extent, it can definitely solve a serious problem facing our Ninth Army at present..." Li Guosheng nodded without comment and spoke.

The confusion expression on Chief of Staff Jiang Baili's face became even stronger. He continued to ask Li Guosheng: "Commander-in-Chief, what's the problem you are talking about?"

"The large number of soldiers urgently needed for the expansion of the troops... It takes half a year to recruit new recruits from refugees, and only various basic training is needed. If they are to train them into a real elite team, it is absolutely impossible to do so. However, it does not take so long to have a large number of prisoners of war with combat experience on the battlefield. The training will be combined for several months, and can fully form combat power and become an elite team of hundreds of battles..." Li Guosheng said.

"Think about it... According to the information, there are 100,000 enemy troops entrenched on the border. If we can eat the 100,000 troops in one bite, it directly means that we can capture 70,000 or 80,000 prisoners on the battlefield. 70,000 and 80,000 veterans with rich combat experience will supplement my Ninth Army. Do you think my Ninth Army will still worry about the lack of qualified troops?"

Jiang Baili's face suddenly showed an expression of enlightenment.

He spoke with excitement at Li Guosheng: "Eating these 100,000 elite soldiers not only solves the problem of insufficient troops in our army, but also prevents the troops from paying too much in the melee of the Central Plains. More importantly, eating these 100,000 troops does not need to go deep into the heartland of the Central Plains to fulfill the commitment to the Nanjing Central Government: by annihilation of the enemy's vital forces, reduce the frontal military pressure of the Nanjing Central Government Army..."

After deciding on the combat ideas, the next step is to play the specific way...

According to the information content, the Adjutant General Liu Shaoqing quickly marked the specific deployment of Feng Yuxiang and Yan Xishan on the huge combat sand table. In less than five minutes, the deployment of major local forces, including their own side, was clearly visible on the mountain table.

"Feng Yuxiang sent 60,000 troops to gather Hengshui... If nothing unexpected happens, his target is our 25th Division stationed in Dezhou... As for Yan Xishan, all 40,000 troops gathered in Shangqiu area. The target of the operation was not Heze, even Jining. However, no matter which city it is, Zhou Xingguo's 27th Division is the first to bear the brunt..."

"We are absolutely necessary to take down these 100,000 troops and fight against the two cities of Shangqiu and Hengshui... Commander-in-chief, I don't know which of the two armies you plan to start first..." Chief of Staff Jiang Baili analyzed.

Speaking of the specific military use, Li Guosheng's face suddenly became serious. Looking at the map, after two minutes of contemplation, he asked back: "Chief of Staff, how do you think the combat effectiveness of our Ninth Army is compared with the two warlord troops?"

"Only strong but not weak... On the field battlefield, our army can fight against three..." Chief of Staff Jiang Baili said confidently.

"Since that's the case, in order to deal with the 100,000 troops, we will use this ratio to double the force, plus a certain number of armored troops, a total of five main divisions. I wonder if it is enough..." Li Guosheng asked with a smile.

"Of course enough... Commander-in-Chief, I understand what you mean: Are you trying to go hand in hand and eat the 100,000 troops together, regardless of order?" Jiang Baili asked back, a worry came to his mind again and followed him and asked.

"Commander-in-Chief, we send out five of the six main divisions at once... Then, in this Central Plains melee, our final target of the Liaodong Peninsula... According to intelligence, the Liaodong Peninsula not only has two divisions stationed on the Northeast Army, a total of more than 20,000 people. More importantly, there is also an infantry gang stationed by the Dalian Military Port. If the Japanese Navy officers and soldiers are added, their total strength will be more than 5,000 people..."

"More than 20,000 Northeast Army and more than 5,000 Japanese Army, and they are still defending on the spot. Apart from the five main divisions, do we have other forces to attack these troops and occupy the Liaodong Peninsula?"

A strange smile flashed quickly on Li Guosheng's face. He shook his head and said confidently: "Chief of Staff, it is absolutely impossible to fight hard against the Liaodong Peninsula... Because now is not the time for us to turn against the Northeast Army. If we can do it, we don't have to be strong, so we don't have to be strong..."

Since Li Guosheng said there was a way, Jiang Baili, who was full of confidence in Li Guosheng, had nothing to say. After a brief contemplation, he continued to speak: "Commander-in-Chief, since that's the case, you can issue an order... Although the expansion of the troops has begun, the six main divisions under him have not yet been broken up and can enter the battlefield at any time..."

Li Guosheng nodded and ordered with a majestic look on his face: "The 25th Division, the 2nd and 3rd Divisions of the Security Guards, a battalion of the Armored Brigade, I personally commanded it, and launched an attack on Feng Yuxiang's troops in Hengshui... The 27th Division, the 1st Division of the Security Guards, and a battalion of the Armored Brigade, and you are personally commanded by the Chief of Staff, and you are attacking Yan Xishan troops in Shangqiu... Lao Li stayed at the General Command and was responsible for the logistics supply of each combat force... In addition, for combat needs and for training, the Air Force formations dispatched two fighter squadrons to operate with the team, mainly responsible for air reconnaissance and strategic deterrence...."
