After a series of experiments, the Japanese Army is obviously very satisfied with this new tank! Previously, the Japanese Army was equipped with the ** medium tank, which was developed based on the British Vickers C-type tank.

In 1927, the Osaka Army Arsenal developed the first experimental vehicle, but unfortunately it weighed 18 tons, which was beyond Japan's ability to transport. Therefore, it was ordered to keep the tank no heavier than 15 tons. In 1929, the Japanese-style tank was launched.

Because it only weighed 9.8 tons at the time, it was called a light tank. The main gun was a 37mm cannon, and the armor of the body was made of nickel-chromium steel plates fixed with rivets.

At the end of 1934, the Japanese strengthened the structure and upgraded the main gun to 57 mm. This modified type was called Type B. However, this modified type did not go to the Korean battlefield, and was completely beaten by the National Defense Forces in the Korean battlefield.

The one on the ground is an unmodified ** type A.

The rampage of the Tiger I of the National Defense Forces made the Japanese determined to fight with tanks. Therefore, the Type 97 was urgently developed. This tank continued the 57mm gun of the Japanese Type 3.

At the same time, the front is made of 25mm case-hardened steel, and the gun shield is increased to 50mm! Looking at the Type 97 tank that they feel is "majestic", the Japanese Army is confident that it will not fall behind in another battle with the National Defense Forces!

But what kind of expression would they have if they knew that the Tiger I of the National Defense Forces used a 75mm caliber gun?!

1936 was destined to be another stormy year for China. In June 1936, the Southwest Executive Department of the Kuomintang and the Southwest Political Affairs Committee of the National Government, composed of powerful local factions in Guangdong and Guangxi, sent a nationwide telegram to attack Chiang Kai-shek and the Central Committee for their inaction against Japan, claiming that Guangdong, Guangxi and Guangxi

He was willing to fight the Japanese aggressors to the death and demanded that Chiang Kai-shek immediately stop his advance on powerful local factions.

The Nationalist Government and the Central Committee of the Kuomintang immediately responded with a telegram to refute, claiming that "to fight foreign aggression, we must first stabilize the internal situation, and then unify to resist aggression", and denounced Guangdong and Guangxi as "local generals disobeying orders." At the same time, the Military Commission also sent a telegram to Guangdong and Guangxi, strictly ordering the troops of Guangdong and Guangxi not to act without authorization. The two sides were in conflict.

intensify.

The New Guangxi clique sent Li Pinxian to win over He Jian, who was in charge of Hunan. However, He Jian sat on the mountain and watched the fight between tigers, while dealing with Li Pinxian. At the same time, he reported to Chiang Kai-shek the actions of the Guangdong and Guangxi armies. In early June, the two armies of the Central Army occupied Hengyang first.

, blocking the northward road of the Guangdong and Guangxi armies.

In mid-June, Chiang Kai-shek mobilized troops to prepare for the armed settlement of Guangdong and Guangxi. The Guangdong and Guangxi armies dispatched 300,000 troops, more than 100 aircraft, and more than 20 river ships to attack Hunan first. But at that time, He Jian had already surrendered to the Central Committee.

The two armies of Guangdong and Guangxi were blocked together. The two armies of Guangdong and Guangxi stopped in southern Hunan and stopped advancing.

Jiang Zhongzheng looked at the news on the telegram and whispered to Yang Yongtai beside him: "Chang Qing, it's just as you expected! Li Delin and Chen Bonan really joined forces to take action..."

Yang Yongtai smiled when he heard this, leaned forward and said to Jiang Zhongzheng: "How can all this escape the hands of the Chairman? Several generals must be ready, so it is time for the Chairman to take action.

Got it!"

"Well!" Jiang Zhongzheng nodded, with a proud smile on the corner of his mouth! In his opinion, he had already strategized! At this time, Yang Yongtai said softly to Jiang Zhongzheng: "Chang Qing still wants to warn the chairman, this time

If things can be done without using force, do so without using force."

"Now that the Japanese ambitions have been exposed, the Red threat has not been eliminated. The party's domestic and foreign troubles really should not harm its combat effectiveness. At this time, it is just a matter of convincing the Guangdong and Guangdong. How much can be taken back is as much as possible. We should ask the party elders to deal with it more. We must not be careless.

Motivation!”

Yang Yongtai's words made Jiang Zhongzheng nod repeatedly. Now there are indeed internal and external troubles! I originally thought that the red man was being chased all the way, but it turned out that they had calmed down again when they arrived in Shaanxi!

Zhang Hanqing is also an idiot, and he lost so many troops without even hurting a single hair of Red! At this time, Jiang Zhongzheng once again thought angrily of the tiger entrenched in Mongolia, Xinjiang, Gansu and even the entire three eastern provinces!

If the tiger had attacked with all his strength, why worry about being red? But he knew better that the tiger wouldn't even urinate in his own pot! The people Dai Yunong sent before were fine, they just caught him and sent him back.

Some time ago, Dai Yunong's group of idiots actually tried to use the brains of tanks! As a result, they were robbed and killed by the secret police forces of the three northeastern provinces and sent back a dozen heads.

Dai Yunong was afraid and asked himself to adjust. He let Zhang Qun put in good words for a long time. Only then did he reveal the matter.

Of course, Jiang Zhongzheng would not think that this was the result of letting Dai Li and others steal the blueprints. In his opinion, this was just the incompetence of Dai Li's men.

"Inform Jiang Bocheng, Dai Li, Zheng Jiemin... and others that they can close the network!" Jiang Zhongzheng picked up the phone and said in a deep voice to the secretary outside. After speaking, he hung up the phone with excitement.

Later, several guests gathered at the home of Yu Hanmou, commander of the First Army of the Guangdong Army. Yu Hanmou smiled and treated the two guests to wine and food. After three rounds of wine and five dishes, Yu Hanmou said in a deep voice to the two guests.

.

"Has the Chairman of the National Council decided yet?!" The two guests looked at each other after hearing this, and then an older man took out a document and handed it to Yu Hanmou.

Yu Hanmou took it, opened it and his eyes lit up! He saw this written on it:

Yu Hanmou, Commander of the First Army, is hereby nominated as Director of Guangdong Appeasement. This is submitted to the Executive Yuan for approval.

Chiang Zhongzheng, Chairman of the Military Commission of the National Revolutionary Army

After reading this simple document, Yu Hanmou laughed! He naturally knew that this was an attitude. But he had to send Chen Jitang away before the complete nomination document would be submitted to the Executive Yuan.

"Since the government has made a decision, I, Yu, will naturally abide by it!" Yu Hanmou smiled and said softly to the two of them: "Come! Let's drink this cup to the full and prosper the party and the country!"

"Go for it! You will be promoted step by step as a general!" These two people were also very sensible and shouted to Yu Han for advice! As they laughed, the wine went into their throats.

At the same time, such a situation also occurred at the home of Air Force Commander Huang Ruiguang. But the difference was that Huang Ruiguang did not receive any recommendation documents from the Chairman. Instead, he was given a Citibank cashier's check for one million!

Holding the check, Huang Ruiguang's smile was no less than that of Yu Hanmou! He smiled and drank with the visitor in front of him, and put the check into his arms.

The next day, Yu Hanmou, commander of the First Army of the Guangdong Army, issued a telegram announcing his surrender to the Central Committee! The whole world was in an uproar, and Chen Jitang himself was stunned! He never thought that Yu Hanmou would betray him at this critical moment!

Since 1925, Yu Hanmou has followed him to conquer the north and south! Chen Jitang never thought that this man who was regarded as his confidant would betray him! For a moment, he did not react in time.

However, the blows came one after another!

On July 4, Air Force Commander Huang Ruiguang led 48 aircraft to Nanchang Airport to defect to the Nanjing National Government! Another division commander Deng Longguang also left without saying goodbye, and several warships also escaped from the bay...

The seemingly huge Cantonese clan fell apart in an instant! Before Chen Jitang could react, the Nanjing government once again struck a combination of punches!

On July 13, the Second Plenary Session of the Fifth Central Committee of the Kuomintang decided to abolish the Southwest Executive Department, and the Military Commission announced that Chen Jitang would be dismissed from his position and replaced by Yu Hanmou. At the same time, in order to divide Guangdong and Guangxi, it was announced that Li Zongren and Bai Chongxi's respective positions would remain unchanged.

Li Zongren and others were not fooled, and tried their best to support Chen Jitang. They called Chen Jitang several times a day and suggested that Chen Jitang immediately take control of money, food, weapons and reliable troops, retreat to western Guangdong, rely on the Guangxi clique, and prepare to send Guangxi troops into Guangdong to stabilize the situation.

situation in Guangdong, but the situation has taken a turn for the worse.

On July 14, Yu Hanmou issued an ultimatum to Chen Jitang, requiring Chen Jitang to leave Guangdong within 24 hours, and at the same time send troops to attack Guangzhou. Chen Jitang's Second Army retreated without a fight, preparing to welcome Yu Hanmou to replace Chen Jitang. Chen Jitang's army was morally in chaos. Bai Chongxi

He immediately telegraphed to Chen Jitang that the situation was critical and advised Chen Jitang to quickly stabilize the morale of the army at all costs.

Chen Jitang was dazzled as he watched his Cantonese ties fall apart like this. Suddenly he felt that he seemed to have fallen into a big net! This net was getting tighter and tighter! Now he was almost strangled to death!

At this time, at Shantou Pier, a tall, thin man wearing a long coat and glasses sneaked up from the edge of the pier carrying a bag of things. Seeing his strangeness, the patrolman immediately stepped forward and shouted: "Stop! What are you doing?"

!”

This man's expression changed when he saw the military police interrogating him! He quickly ran towards Shantou City! The two patrolmen quickly blew their whistles and ran all the way to try to catch up with the man!

As a result, the man suddenly fell to the ground while running and was frothing at the mouth! He twitched for a while and then stopped moving. The expressions of the two patrol officers changed greatly! They quickly stepped forward and felt his nose and pulse, but the man was already dead.

.

With a sound of "Bah~", a document fell from the man's body. The two patrol officers glanced at it subconsciously and immediately turned pale! Although they could not understand the words on it, they could tell that it was in Japanese!

This matter was reported to all levels, and soon it appeared in the hands of Li Hanhun, the current Guangdong Yuedong District Appeasement Chairman and Lieutenant General Commander of the Sixth Division!

Looking at the report handed over, Li Hanhun's face turned pale! Last year, he had detained the goods smuggled by Japanese businessmen. As a result, the arrogant Japanese army directly sent the 5th torpedo fleet to Shantou!

Li Hanhun was also very popular at that time! This man from Wuchuan boarded the Japanese ship with several guards with grenades hanging on their waists, and shouted directly at Japan: "I should arrest you if you commit trouble in my place! If you can, I will kill you."

Me! Or we die together!"

Seeing the guards covered with grenades, the Japanese army gave in. For the first time since the Republic of China, Chinese customs could seize Japanese contraband! And this time, it was this man from Wuchuan who gambled his life to get it back!

Li Hanhun sneered, I wonder how the Japanese will come this time! Come on! I, Li Hanhun, will follow!
Chapter completed!
