Chapter 561 Looking at Nanjing from afar

"The ancient capital of the Six Dynasties, dragons and tigers are standing!" Meng Xiang stood on the Shi Ridge at Pukou, looking at the Yangtze River under the misty rain not far away and Nanjing City on the other side, and couldn't help but whisper.

"The commander is so excited!" Fan Zhong put down his telescope and smiled. This time, Meng Xiang came to the scene of the Cross River Battle in person to check, which boosted morale and made many people feel worried.

Tang Yaoshi once advised Meng Xiang not to take risks and stay in the headquarters to command the overall situation.

"At that time, the Pioneer Army once fought in Nanjing, but still did not save the lives of the 200,000 Nanjing people. I just hope to go there in person and watch our Chinese army recover the old capital to comfort the undesolate souls over Nanjing. " Meng Xiang directly suppressed all the opposition voices, and he felt a little ashamed. He traveled to this era, but still watched the scene of more than 200,000 people being harmed by the Japanese again. He kept a thorn in his heart. Now it is time to counterattack Nanjing City, and he wants to take this opportunity to untie this knot.

"Okay, it's not easy for others to interfere too much in the recovery of the old capital this time." Tang Yaoshi did not persuade him too much. Finally, when he was alone with Meng Xiang, this sentence appeared, which made Meng Xiang feel a little amused.

The credit for regaining the old capital this time is more sensitive than other records of regaining lost lands. Generals from all walks of life have come to express their determination to win this honor. The relationship is complicated, and even Wei Hanchao, the commander of the 4th Legion in the Northeast, couldn't help but send a letter to remind him.

Meng Xiang had long known this. Before the princes made a fuss about it, they had already appointed a joint battle between Niu Yi, Rat Yi and Tiger Yi. Maybe everyone was not convinced by others, but no one could say anything about these old subordinates who were recognized as Meng Xiang's direct lineage. At that time, three people were the first to use the banner of the vanguard army in Nanjing.

Today, the three of them gathered at the city of Nanjing again to recover the old capital that they had no choice but to evacuate.

Not only these three people, but also those who had fought on the city of Nanjing, all the soldiers who were alive were already in high positions, and the worst was at the level of the battalion. Those who had returned from the prisoners in Nanjing, those who had avoided the injustice of the river and those who fled to join the army, also wanted to return to this place.

"I fought for a long time before I caught this trip!" Lu Shiming was also standing on the Maoshan Mountain of the Golden Temple that he had just occupied, looking at the direction of Nanjing from afar, sighing. Although there was a foggy area there and it was hard to see clearly, he could feel the heavy pressure of Nanjing City in his heart. At that time, all the troops around him were exhausted, and not many could escape.

When he thought of that time, he was sad and glad that he boarded the vanguard ship as early as possible.

At that time, the Pioneer Army was just a militia, and there was not even a regular group number. It was no wonder that Guo Huaiyu, who escaped from the secret passage with him, did not want to join the Pioneer Army, but contacted the Central Army and pulled up the mountain.

But now, the Pioneer Army has become a behemoth that occupies most of China. Because he is a veteran of the Pioneer Army and his diligent work, after passing the position of Chief of Staff of the Jiangsu and Zhejiang Guerrilla Column, he is now the Chief of Staff of the 2nd Corps.

After the reform of the Pioneer Army Corps, the central government also distributed the titles of various personnel and corpses. Even if a bandit leader with a thousand people who occupied the mountain and became king was simply recruited, he might be able to be named a legion. However, this trick of the Pioneer Army was not good. No matter what, the Chinese people who are a little smart in understanding current affairs know what the Pioneer Army's legion means.

Each legion is at least 100,000 elite, and it was stronger than the strength of one prince in the past. Someone once said that any vanguard army could knock down the teams of local warlords from all over the world to the ground. Although this is a bit exaggerated, it has the power of aircraft and tanks, equipped with at least thousands of artillery and mortars. It can completely sweep against those local miscellaneous warlords. Even if it is against the Guangxi and Jin armies, it can still fight.

Moreover, even if there are differences between A, B, C and D in the legion, the 2nd Legion is the second-ranked large legion reorganized by the vanguard army. Not to mention the ranking that countless people appreciate, the three armies under their command each have a mechanized division, and the legion directly commands an armored division, which reflects the strength of the 2nd Legion.

The 2nd Legion has achieved motorization of the entire legion and is the first of these legions in the south. The legion commander Shi Yi is also known as Commander Meng's iron-core direct lineage. All of this also highlights the difference between the 2nd Legion.

Among some of Lu Shiming's classmates, the highest was at the level of the Central Army. He was already very satisfied that he could become the chief of staff of the 2nd Legion.

Thinking that the Lashantou was defeated by the Japanese who had swept the raid and ran back to Guo Huaiyu, who had become the deputy brigade commander of the Central Army, Lu Shiming couldn't help but sigh again.

He didn't know that Hu Lian sighed even though he was more than ten kilometers away from him.

Hu Lian also remembered the scene when he fled in Nanjing, and he couldn't help but think of his current identity.

Hu Lian, who was already the leader of the army at this time, was also glad that he had made his choice. In the fourth period of Huangpu, there were only a few people except for the one or two of the Red Party who could hold tens of thousands of heavy troops. But now there are not many people in the entire Red Party army, let alone the equipment difference. Although Hu Lian's army has not been reorganized into the legion, the mechanization and scale of the amphibious combat troops he commanded are much stronger than that of ordinary troops, not to mention the troops of the Red Party that cannot even gather weapons.

Hu Lian was always very alert to the Red Party, mainly because the Soviet Union behind them had always been the target that China was vigilant, and their greed was no worse than that of the *** people.

But Hu Lian was a little dissatisfied with that Commander Meng was too relaxed about the Red Party’s policies. In addition to the restrictions on propaganda and some legal provisions, they had never cleared their bases once. If Hu Lian had not known the information that the Pioneer Army would take action against Outer Mongolia next, Hu Lian thought that Meng Xiang, who implemented the minimum living security system and various social security systems, was also a believer of Sovietism.

However, he was also relieved that the Vanguard Army's minimum living allowance and the introduction of various social security systems has left some radical ideas in the Soviet Union without any soil. This is also the reason why the Vanguard Army has completely relaxed its contacts with the red areas, but the forces there have never improved.

"If you want to join the army, be a vanguard army!" This is already the consensus among the people, that is, glorious, affordable and safe. In this way, a few people are willing to join other teams. Even those passionate young people have no frontlines to attract the red areas, and have turned to the vanguard army to defend their country and rejuvenate China. More and more people have even separated from other forces and joined the vanguard army, and the trend of talent reversal has become increasingly surging.

"The three major legions attack Nanjing together, Nanjing must win!" Hu Lian analyzed and said with a little concern, "But after Nanjing is recovered, some domestic situations are probably going to be lifted. At that time, there might be a showdown between the Pioneer Army, the Central Army and various forces."

"Brother Zuomin, after regaining Nanjing, the situation in the country is probably going to be clear!" Zhang Lingfu, who is already the leader of the first army under the 3rd Legion of Huyi, couldn't help but sigh to his former senior Wang Yaowu.

"Some things are going to be clear!" At this time, Wang Yaowu, who was the commander of Niu Yi's 1st Legion, did not regret his surrender to the Pioneer Army. Wang Yaowu's political sense is very sensitive, and he can better understand the future of the Pioneer Army. Although he was a little embarrassed about deviating from the Central Army, he also understood what the general trend was. Although he was only the commander of the Pioneer Army, the army under his jurisdiction was an armoured mechanized army, and he did not feel wronged.

"I won't participate in such a grand occasion." However, Wang Yaowu still smiled bitterly, "I once said that I would not participate in the civil war." After Wang Yaowu said that, he suddenly remembered the mass murders he had in China before, and felt a little inconsistent, and couldn't help but say again: "I can't take action against the former Tongze of the Central Army!"

"Don't worry! Commander Meng will not let us take action, and the civil war will not break out." Zhang Lingfu affirmed.

"Hmm?" Wang Yaowu looked at Zhang Lingfu in surprise.

"Brother Zuomin, you still can't see through the strength of the vanguard army for such a long time? If you fight a civil war, even if you follow the strength of the German division in the Central Army before, the vanguard army can easily be destroyed." Zhang Lingfu sighed, "The vanguard army has long had the ability to unify the whole country with force, but has never been hidden. Isn't it just to avoid fighting a civil war and retain its strength for China?"

Zhang Lingfu has long been in the Pioneer Army for so long, but Wang Yaowu also thought what he said made sense.
