The atmosphere in Shimen is not tense at all.

No one even believed that the Japanese invaders would come here.

Many people think that this place is so far away from Peking.

The purpose of the Japanese invaders was only to occupy Peiping. Now that they had occupied it, it would be fine.

Just do what you have to do.

Eat and drink when you need to.

Therefore, Tang Enbo's northward speed was very slow.

Walking day and night.

He was worried that irritating the Japanese invaders would only cause him to get burned.

It is impossible to recapture Peiping. It is just a show. It means that the direct troops are coming.

More importantly, it is actually to control the southern part of the North China Plain and drive nails in this vacuum.

Zhang Yong and Tang Enbo drank tea together.

Jin Haitang was waiting nearby. Zhang Yong deliberately arranged it to let her have access to some information and express his "very trust" in her.

You see, I always brought you to the meeting with Tang Enbo. How honorable you are.

"Commissioner Zhang is so lucky!"

"Commander Tang, thank you very much."

"The gift you gave me is really nice. Unfortunately, I don't have a gift to give you right now, so I have to wait until next time."

"I will come to disturb Commander Tang often in the future."

“A warm welcome.”

Tang Enbo is very enthusiastic and has almost no grudges.

Maybe they have similar odors. A straw bag matches a straw bag. I wish I could immediately chop off the chicken head, burn the yellow paper, and sworn brothers.

Of course, just think about it. You can't do this. Even if it's secret, it's because of the taboo on appointments.

The New Life Movement was actually promoted by the committee.

On the surface, it is asking people to change their living customs, but in fact, it is to change the ways of Huidao sect.

Commission himself is a master at forming cliques, but he is very taboo about his subordinates forming cliques.

To carry out the New Life Movement, we need to break up huidaomen and so on.

Therefore, there are many obstacles.

In the beginning, the Tongmenghui was in the form of a gang.

Many of the elders of the Tongmenghui are gang members. How can they be easily dismantled?

The party headquarters was actually half a gang. The leader was Wang Jingwei, not Chiang Kai-shek. Therefore, Chiang Kai-shek hated it very much.

During the Night of the Long Knife in Jinling, Zhang Yong killed seven important backbones of the party in a row.

Afterwards, there were countless complaints.

Chiang Kai-shek turned a deaf ear and ignored everything.

The attitude is very clear.

You can sue whatever you want. I pretend not to know.

Anyway, you can't come to Lushan Mountain to find me. I'm not afraid of you yelling.

If you keep yelling, I will recall Zhang Yong back to Jinling. If anyone still refuses to shut up, let Zhang Yong help him shut up.

So, after a few days, no one made any noise.

Mouth can't kill anyone.

Everyone cherishes their own lives.

What if Zhang Yong really comes back? He can’t even run away...

That evil star is so bad. When it comes, it will block stations, docks, block streets, and catch turtles in a jar.

Once discovered, they will come up with a burst of submachine guns!

There wasn't even a chance to beg for mercy.

When I came back from the northwest, I was punished a lot.

But this time, there was no punishment. Chiang Kai-shek made it clear that he would protect him to the end.

Just tell everyone clearly that if you oppose me again, I will ask Zhang Yong to find you. If you have anything to say, tell Zhang Yong.

What can you say to Zhang Yong?

I won't let you speak at all.

There were at least twenty bullet holes in his body.

"By the way, Commander Tang, has Zhu Huaibing reported to you about Li Xianzhou?"

"Told me. I'm more than happy to let you go."

"Thank you. Where is the person?"

"Still in Anyang. He is still a little worried."

"What concerns?"

"I'm worried that I won't be able to command so many Northeastern troops. After all, last year's incident..."

"If he doesn't want to come, forget it."

"Do you have a backup candidate?"

"If Li Xianzhou doesn't come, I will transfer Li Tianxia."

"Li Tianxia? Do you know him?"

"I've heard of it."

Zhang Yong did not elaborate.

He was also an afterthought as a backup candidate.

Huangpu Phase III.

Average talent.

But it's not bad. He can lead an army.

The tiger on Meng Lianggu collapsed, and the sky glowed to help him from thousands of miles away. Unless I saw death and refused to save him, the communist army had a high altitude.

This guy is ill-fated, but he is actually capable and can cause trouble.

The troops he leads are actually quite good.

At least, it's a little better than Li Xianzhou.

It's a pity that he was in the third period. He is still a colonel at the moment.

There are many big bosses in the first phase, they are senior, and all the high positions are occupied by the big bosses.

Those in the third phase can only wait in line slowly at the back.

Wang Yaowu is also the commander of the 51st Division. And the 51st Division cannot be regarded as the main division.

"Actually, the commission requires you to form two armies."

"I know. I was given the numbers of both the 68th and 69th armies."

"Shaolong, you should listen to the commission. Expand the two brigades into armies as soon as possible."

"I don't have that many people!"

"You only need to arrange for Li Xianzhou and Li Tianxia to serve as military commanders respectively. The Attendant's Office will naturally be responsible for coordinating the rest."

"But……"

"Now that the 29th Army has been defeated, there are so many defeated troops, so they can be incorporated into two of your armies. You should understand the meaning of the commission."

"Understood. Then I will comply immediately."

"That's right."

Tang Enbo expressed that he was very happy that he finally convinced Zhang Yong.

When he came this time, he actually brought a secret mission from the Attendant's Room, which was to let Zhang Yong carry out the order to expand the army.

Zhang Yong was good at everything, but he was quite taboo about expanding military power.

He was afraid that the commission would misunderstand him for supporting the army and respecting himself.

In fact, the commissioner hopes that he can support himself as soon as possible.

If you Zhang Yong supports the army and respects himself, it will only be beneficial to the envoy. The envoy will only be happy.

The soldiers you lead, Zhang Yong, are the soldiers of the envoy. Only when the envoy's strength increases can he better stabilize his power!

At the moment, the 29th Army is falling apart, just in time to absorb and digest it.

Turn its soldiers into direct descendants of the commission.

From then on, there were two armies of direct lineage in the North China Plain.

Unlike before, there are no direct troops at all. If others want to cause trouble in the North China Plain, the committee is completely powerless.

This rebellious guy from the 29th Army will definitely cancel his designation in the future.

"Okay, I'll report back to the attendant's office."

"That's right."

Tang Enbo was all smiles.

So I drank tea.

Talk about romantic things.

Farewell.

Bring Jin Haitang back.

Zhang Yong also has a private residence in Shimen. The area is quite large.

All this does not require his presence or action. Someone will naturally arrange everything.

who?

Of course it's Zhu Huaibing.

He now considers himself the Commissioner's confidant.

The house was arranged, the woman made arrangements, and several servants were hired to take care of the daily care.

But Zhang Yong is not in the mood to enjoy it for the time being.

Bring people.

Go out.

Head to Daguocun Airport.

There was no airport in Baoding at that time, but there was one in Shimen.

It's called Daguocun Airport. It was built in 1928 when Yan Laoxi entered Shimen. It's very crude.

Later, in 1933, it was expanded and the basic facilities were completed. It could take off and land airplanes. However, it was still very crude and few airplanes landed.

Arrive at the airport.

get off.

Observe your surroundings.

A desolate place.

This is the airport in the north!

Except that Nanyuan Airport can be used normally, forget about anything else.

Nominally, Daguocun Airport is also under the jurisdiction of the National Air Force. It is one of the standing airports of the National Air Force.

However, the National Air Force has never used it and probably forgot about it.

This area has never been the direct lineage range.

"Commissioner, do you want to repair the airport?" Zhu Huaibing was trying to figure out Zhang Yong's thoughts.

"No." Zhang Yong shook his head, "I just came to take a look."

Indeed. Just take a look.

Leave after reading.

Because this airport will soon fall into the hands of the Japanese invaders.

The original Shimen was just a small town with no reputation. Construction only started after the Japanese invaders occupied it.

In order to consolidate their aggressive rule, the Japanese invaders upgraded Shimen to the level of a big city and built it according to the planning of a big city.

Daguocun Airport was gradually improved during the Japanese and puppet rule.

The Japanese invaders paved the entire airport runway with asphalt and used it as a key airport. It was an important stronghold to protect the Pingjin area.

In the late period of the Anti-Japanese War, the strength of the Sino-US joint air force was already quite strong.

Both B-25 and B-29 can bomb Pingjin.

But there was no bombing.

Taiyuan and Shimen airports are under serious threat.

The Japanese invaders stationed a large number of fighter jets in these two places, which could intercept bombers coming from the southwest in advance.

After evaluation, the Sino-US Joint Air Force felt that it was not cost-effective, so they abandoned the plan.

However, Zhang Yong had his own ideas.

Not during the day. I'll come at night.

I flew a bomber at night and flew directly to Beijing and Tianjin to bomb...

wrong!

I bombed Taiyuan and Shimen.

Come to bomb the airport at night and drop the bombs all at once.

As it happens, the distance from Xi'an is only a few hundred kilometers. You can get there in two hours and leave as soon as the bombing is over.

mark.

Leave.

Return to the city.

It's said to be an urban area, but it's actually just a few streets.

It is not as good as a large rural gathering in later generations. The population is not too large.

Suddenly, the map automatically switches.

A small blue dot is moving from the south. It is moving very fast.

Determine whether it is an airplane or the National Air Force.

Strange, the National Air Force?

Who is it?

Is it passing through here or landing here?

I paid close attention silently. Finally, I found that the plane landed at Daguocun Airport, but there was no mark.

It means that the person who came is not an acquaintance. I don’t know who it is.

Decided to go back to the airport to have a look.

As a result, it was discovered that it was a Hawker-3 biplane.

It is a fighter jet, but its endurance is pretty good. It can fly more than 1,200 kilometers on a one-way trip.

The key is that because it is a biplane, it has better controllability and has very low requirements for the airport. It can take off and land smoothly on grass and mud.

As for the combat performance, I'm sorry, but it can only be said to be very average. Even a little behind.

If compared with BF109, it would probably be outclassed.

Fortunately, the Japanese Army Air Force's fighter jets didn't seem to be very good, so they were able to achieve some results.

"Bring the pilot here."

"yes."

Dushanlong led people up.

Soon, the pilot was brought over.

He was an older pilot, and Zhang Yong had an impression of him.

I don’t remember the name. But I met him many times before.

"Your name is..."

"Reporting specialist, my name is Song Yuanbin."

"Oh, I remembered. What are you doing here? Are you here to find me?"

"Yes. Commissioner, this is the telegram sent to you by Madam."

"A telegram from Madam?"

"Yes. Ocean telegram."

Song Yuanbin took out an envelope from his arms.

The envelope was sealed with fire paint. Apparently only he, Zhang Yong, could open it.

So it was taken apart.

Pull out the telegram inside.

curious.

A telegram from across the ocean?

What is the urgent matter that requires sending an ocean telegram? Are you so anxious?

Open.

“Is it okay to invest in a Gone with the Wind movie?”

Only ten words.

Ocean telegraph.

Just say this?

It feels weird. But, it seems normal.

If it were a serious national event, I probably wouldn't ask about it in the telegram.

It seems that he, Zhang Yong, is not yet qualified to sit down face to face with others and discuss national and world affairs.

It's about movies and entertainment, so you can ask about it. It doesn't hurt to make mistakes.

Gone with the Wind, movies, of course you can invest in them.

Its box office is very good.

"How do I reply?"

"Commissioner, please write your opinion on it, sign it, seal it again, and I'll take it back to Jinling."

"Can you fly to Jinling from here?"

"I'll go to Xi'an first, then refuel, and then go back to Jinling."

"come on……"

Zhang Yong suddenly felt that he could arrange some oil.

The fuel consumption of the biplane is not very high. Two barrels are enough. So we arranged delivery and sent two barrels of gasoline.

"Commissioner, there is one more thing."

"explain."

"This matter was only oral, not written."

"oh?"

"Director Lin of the Attendant's Office told me that there should be no records and that it could only be conveyed verbally."

"Say it."

"If the commissioner has time, he can go to Taiyuan."

"Going to Taiyuan? What to do?"

"Director Lin didn't say anything. You'll know when you go."

"I received it."

"Then I'll go back."

"Wait! Let me help you cheer!"

"ah?"

Song Yuanbin was surprised.

Can I refuel here?

I haven’t heard that Daguocun Airport has fuel.

When he came, he was careful to save fuel and prepared fuel for his return.

I didn’t expect that I could actually refuel here.

Very unexpected.

Zhang Yong took out a pen and wrote his opinion on the ocean telegram: It is OK to invest. Then he signed his name and the date.

Give it to the person next to you, seal it with fire paint, and then hand it to Song Yuanbin.

"Coming."

Zhang Yong waved his hand.

The system tool man arrived by car.

Send two barrels of gasoline. Put them down. Leave. Disappear.

Song Yuanbin:......

You can really work hard!

Mr. Commissioner, it is indeed amazing. You can get fuel anywhere.

come on.

Fill the fuel tank. There is still some left.

Song Yuanbin felt relieved. Then he took off with peace of mind and left.

If you have enough fuel, you don't need to worry.

"Going to Taiyuan?"

Zhang Yong was thoughtful and felt a little strange.

What is so mysterious? There cannot be any records yet. Only oral instructions?

He acted as if he was on some secret mission.

Do you want to kill Yan Laoxi yourself? It's not that exaggerated! Yan Laoxi is not the third best friend...

Should you go or not?

Of course go.

Now that I’ve said it, I’ll definitely go.

The so-called oral instructions are certainly not those of Director Lin.

It's by appointment.

Old Jiang didn't know what he was thinking about.

He didn't say anything and just let himself guess. He didn't take any responsibility on his own.

However, Taiyuan...

What will happen?

Also, would Yan Laoxi welcome him to go?

He is a very narrow-minded landlord and a wealthy man who values ​​his one-third of an acre of land very much.

He doesn’t want what belongs to others. However, he won’t give it to others if they come to snatch it from him. For this reason, the specifications of the railways in Jin Province are different from those outside.

All trains need to change trains when entering the border of Shanxi Province because the track widths are different.

Suddenly I noticed someone coming in a hurry.

"Report to the Commissioner!"

"What's up?"

"Someone is looking for you. He claims to be from Taiyuan. He says there is something very important."

"Taiyuan?"

Zhang Yong raised his eyebrows.

It seems that there is really something good going on over there!
