Chapter 540: Arrive in Hankou
"Why are there so many people on the street?"
"Master, you don't know yet. The people have long known that our Honorary First Division will enter Hankou. They came out before dawn and guarded both sides of Zhongzheng Street. Are you ready to welcome us?" Guo Weiquan said.
"How do ordinary people know that we are walking down Zhongzheng Street?"
"This must have been arranged by the Hankou Municipal Government. I heard that it has been prepared since the day before yesterday. You see, the two prohibited white lines on the roadside that were just drawn this morning." Guo Weiquan explained excitedly.
This was the first time Leng Feng had such a lively scene. Thinking that he might have to face a crazy scene next, he couldn't help but tighten his coat.
Obviously, Guo Weiquan, who was still very excited at the moment, did not realize what was going to happen next.
"If we didn't have the license plate of the Security Command, we would probably not be allowed to walk on the middle road."
"Okay, okay, drive quickly."
"yes!"
They can't go directly to the station and get a place in front and get on the train directly from the side of the railway. Everything will be for publicity needs.
The plan was formulated by Leng Feng himself, and he must cooperate with all this. Moreover, for this plan, everyone in Wuhan, except for a few senior executives, was kept in the dark.
Yudaimen Station.
Chen Cheng and a group of important members of the Wuhan National Government had already arrived at the station, which was a freight station. In order not to affect passenger traffic, the troops stationed in Hankou of the Honorary Division will get off here and then take a car or walk into the military camp.
Subsequent troop transport trains will arrive one after another.
This was also carefully planned, so that the people of Wuhan can see the most elite troops with their own eyes and honor the majesty of the First Division.
This is also an opportunity to show off its force to the outside world, so the Wuhan Command attaches great importance to it.
Although China has not declared war on Japan, the war has begun. The declaration of war is just a few words written on a piece of paper.
The Honorary First Division is now a banner of the entire Chinese War of Resistance. The myth of Honorary First Division's undefeated has completely become a support for a belief among the Chinese people.
Strengthening and promoting the belief that the war of victory will be won by the war of resistance is such a good opportunity, and Wuhan is not a fool.
"Chairman Chen, reporters from Tokyo Tokyo and Yomiuri Shimbun requested to enter the station..." Chen Cixiu's adjutant quietly came behind him and whispered in his ear.
"No, journalists from any country can enter the station today, but Japanese journalists will never allow them."
"I'm afraid they will cause trouble."
"Then drive them away. Commander Leng was offered a million reward by the Japanese. If there was a little trouble today, how many people would fall to the ground, do you understand?"
"I understand, understand."
The adjutant quickly took people to drive away Japanese journalists. If these people get into the assassin, it will be a huge disaster.
Leng Feng's car did not enter the station, but continued to drive forward. The train would slow down before entering the station. He could easily go on the train halfway and he wanted to appear with his troops.
This is a form.
“Come up!”
Leng Feng was the first to jump on the train under Liao Sen's pull, then turned around and pulled Guo Weiquan up as he was running. At this time, the train happened to have a small turn, and the speed was not fast, only less than twenty kilometers per hour.
"This train climbing is really a technical job. I was not prepared and I almost didn't catch it just now." Leng Feng smiled and joined Ju Youlin, Liao Sen and the others, so it would be much easier to do next.
"Master, wash your hands."
"Well, I'll wash my hands. It's dirty. I'll get out of the car and shake hands later. I don't respect Chairman Chen very much." Leng Feng said with a smile.
"How about the troops heading into Wuhan, how do you feel?"
"I didn't expect it, but it would be even better if the main force arrived." Ju Youlin said excitedly.
"Our army is not the main force now?" Leng Feng smiled.
"What the master means is that we are the main force now, even if we are not now, we will be the same in the future." Liao Sen suddenly understood what Leng Feng meant.
"Hahaha……"
"In a while, we will enter the station. Have the troops entered the city clearly explained the rules?" Leng Feng asked.
"Everyone knows the importance of this when talking about it every day."
"That's good. Now we are telling a huge lie. The situation in Wuhan is complicated, and the confidentiality awareness of officers and soldiers must be strengthened. We are especially good at our grassroots officers. If we don't go to big cities, we won't know who we are." Leng Feng said seriously.
"I have found a director of the Military Law Department for our Honorary Division. Who do you think he is?"
"who?"
"Sun Zhongren."
"Sun Zhongren of the Tax Police Corps, didn't he recover from his injuries in Hong Kong?" Ju Youlin exclaimed.
"He was recuperating in Hong Kong, but was recalled by Song Ziwen. However, one step late, the wounded soldiers of the 5,000 Tax Police Corps were intercepted by us. So, he has no place to go now, so I have a kidnap over." Leng Feng said with a smile, "But don't target others. Sun Zhongren's ability is no worse than you. He has drunk foreign ink seriously. You have to humbly learn from others for advice."
"What's the matter? The Xuzhou battle, aren't the teacher planning to let us participate?"
"This, there must be someone in Hankou. You are the deputy division commander and the deputy chief of staff. Isn't it good to match this way?"
Ju Youlin and Liao Sen both showed a hint of disappointment.
"You guys, don't do this. We still have some battles with Japan. If we can't get it this time, we will definitely have a chance next time. Wuhan is also very important. If there is no one who can trust me, I'm not relieved." Leng Feng said solemnly.
"Lao Ju, you have a steady personality and are impartial in your work. It is not easy to offend others. Lao Liao, you are making progress in your work and dare to think and fight. You will be able to catch the weak and the other is solid. If you cooperate like this, you will achieve twice the result with half the effort." Leng Feng said.
Everyone is a good person, and Leng Feng’s words are very clear. Ju Youlin is going to deal with the social engagements above, while Liao Sen is taking charge of the training and reorganization of the troops.
"Master, I understand. I finally have the opportunity to have a good rest." Ju Youlin agreed readily. Leng Feng could hand over all his lairs to him. What a great trust that was that. This battle would not be over in one day.
Liao Sen also understood Leng Feng's difficulties. The Honorary First Division was the only one who could command the action. Now all three main brigades on the front line were replaced by deputy brigade commanders.
These brigade commanders are here, and the Japanese believe that the main force of the Honorary First Division has been transferred to Wuhan for rest.
"I will never let down my teacher's responsibilities!"
"That's good, when will Lao Wu say?" Leng Feng asked.
"Old Wu said that he took the last train and only brought a guard battalion." Liao Sen.
"Where did he get another guard battalion?"
"This is not what you said at the division. We cannot lose any of our troops? So we temporarily changed the number of troops, so we will basically be complete, which means that the number of people is half smaller."
"It's right that half of it is right. After such a fierce battle, it's normal for us to lose some soldiers, haha..."
"By the way, how do you arrange the 5,000 wounded soldiers of the Tax Police Corps?"
"Don't separate them, set up a supplementary brigade, two regiments, and no weapons are allocated. The candidates for the regiment commander can be selected from them."
"Who will take it?"
"Don't be sure for now. Let them organize restorative training first. You can consider issuing some training weapons and ammunition. The basic living security of officers and soldiers should be consistent with us. Don't be more favorable than the other." Leng Feng thought for a while and said, the Honorary First Division still lacked senior officers, and this shortcoming cannot be cured in no time.
“This is absolutely fine.”
"I asked Zhang Fengxiang for logistics issues, but he has made a fortune recently." Leng Feng said with a smile.
"What the 72nd Army leader Sun Yuanliang?"
"It seems that good things don't go out, bad things spread thousands of miles away, you all know."
"Ha ha……"
"Report, the seat of the division, the seat of the deputy division, and the deputy chief of staff of Liao are about to enter the station." The orderly soldier ran into the carriage and saluted the three people who were talking and laughing.
"It's time for us to get off the bus."
Suddenly, a confidential staff officer rushed into the carriage and handed a telegram to Leng Feng.
"The division seat, the battle report I just received, the Japanese army in Yangzhou area moved and launched a fierce attack on the area I controlled. The commander was Iizuka Kiyogoro."
"The old Japanese devil, Toshiro Hata, has also taken action, and he still chose to be today?" Ju Youlin and Liao Sen were both a little surprised.
"This is a challenge to me. As soon as I entered Wuhan, he started to attack us. It's such a scheming!" Leng Feng said with a fierce look on his face.
"The Japanese obviously chose this opportunity on purpose."
"Don't worry about it, there is no honorary division, and the 31st Army under Chief Li is not a softie. It is probably not that easy for Hata Shunroku to restore the offensive before the New Year." Leng Feng said.
Woo woo...
The train whistle sounded, which meant that it was about to enter the station, and the speed of the train slowed down significantly.
The military band has already played outside. The triumphal music doesn't sound so funny, it may be a problem with the level of these military musicians.
"Teacher, when will our Honorary First Division also have its own military song?"
"I heard that Mr. Tian H, the composer of "The March of the Volunteers", is in Wuhan. Maybe we can ask him to write lyrics for us and find another songwriter's master's collection. What do you think?"
"Yes, but the pen fee cannot be too shabby. I heard that these people's lives are not good, and they also need to support others. In addition, soldiers are all rough, so don't have to say lyrics in classical Chinese. They are just a little catchy and catchy. Everyone can listen to Dong, and it's enough to make people excited." Leng Feng said that many classic military songs in later generations are actually very suitable for military songs, but he did not plan to be addicted to musicians, so professional things should be left to professionals.
A person's energy is limited. When plagiarism becomes dependence, it is almost the same as sucking dy.
"Agree, the lyrics cannot be too elegant. We who are not fully tuned cannot sing them." Ju Youlin laughed.
"It's right."
The train gradually stopped until it was completely stationary on the rails.
