"What about the remaining 200 people, 1,2, [-]"

Liang Xiao asked with a frown.

"Chief of Staff Zhou said that our Second Battalion will defend the eight-kilometer coastline of Jinshanwei. If all of them are transferred away, once a war breaks out, the military situation may be delayed."

Lei Zhenggang said.

Liang Xiao nodded. What Zhou Shiji said was right. According to the order of the Military and Political Council, the three 3rds of the Special Operations Brigade were all placed on the coastline of Jinshanwei in Hangzhou, and each department had a fixed garrison area. The defense line will be empty, and although the war has not yet begun, necessary precautions must still be taken.

However, even half a battalion of troops is enough.

After all, it is only to protect the safety of the generals entering Shanghai and ensure the smooth opening of the establishment meeting of the Songhu Garrison Command. If too many troops are mobilized, it will appear that they lack courage.

"Pass my order, one will set up checkpoints along Zhuque Avenue, one will serve as a guard outside the Songhu Garrison Command, and the other will follow me to the Songhu Garrison Command."

Liang Xiao ordered.

"Yes."

Lei Zhenggang took the order and immediately arranged specific tasks. Two platoons in a row went to Zhuque Avenue to set up checkpoints, one platoon in the second company served as the perimeter guard of the Songhu Security Command, and the rest went to the Songhu Security Command.

Boom.

Two muffled thunderclaps exploded in the sky.

Liang Xiao waved his hand: "Get in the car and set off."

He took the folder and boarded the bulletproof car. Tang Menghan was dressed in a women's military uniform and got on the car in a heroic manner. This time, she was going to attend the inaugural meeting of the Songhu Security Command. As a confidential secretary, of course she had to go with her.

The Songhu Security Command is located in the primary school on the north bank of the Suzhou River.

Because factories and schools in Shanghai are being relocated on a large scale, causing panic in Shanghai, many primary and secondary schools are dismissed early, so the spare primary school is the headquarters of the Shanghai Garrison Command.

The terrain in this area is quite complicated, the roads extend in all directions, and there are great loopholes in terms of safety.

However, Liang Xiao has half a reinforced battalion in his hands, so he can fill up these......... loopholes.

Songhu Security Command.

Nine in the morning.

前来参加成立大会的将军陆续乘车抵达,有88师少将师长孙元良,87师少将师长王敬久,45师少将师长戴嗣夏,52师少将师长卢兴荣,32师少将师长王修身,19师师长李觉等等....

In addition, Hu Zongnan, Lieutenant General of the First Army, Luo Zhuoying, Lieutenant General of the No.18 Army, and Liao Lei, Lieutenant General of the Seventh Army, participated in the founding meeting.

The generals of the garrison command are shining brightly, all the senior generals of the National Revolutionary Army came here, except for Liao Lei, the commander of the Seventh Army of the Guangxi Clan, the rest of the senior generals are pure Central Army The direct descendants, such as Hu Zongnan, Sun Yuanliang, Wang Jingjiu and other generals, are all from the Whampoa lineage, and Zhang Wenbai, the commander of the Songhu Garrison, is an instructor at the Whampoa Military Academy, who can suppress the arrogant soldiers of the Whampoa lineage, and replace them with others, and so on. ....... Huangpu generals have already raised their tails to the sky.

Headquarters, conference room.

More than 20 senior generals each found a chair to sit down according to their military rank:.

Liang Xiao was among these generals. He kept walking behind, but no one paid attention to him. When he arrived at the conference room, he took the initiative to sit down in the corner behind him:, next to him was Shanghai Garrison Commander Yang Hu.

Today's inaugural meeting can be described as a gathering of stars, Yang Hu is inconspicuous among all the generals, if he is not the appointed brother, maybe he is not even qualified to sit here.

After all, those who can sit in this conference room are not the ones who fought with real knives and guns. In terms of military achievements, Yang Hu is incomparable with the generals present. As a motley army, the combat power is simply not comparable to that of the Central Army.

Therefore, he also sat in the back knowingly.

After the senior generals who came to participate in the inaugural meeting had arrived, Zhang Wenbai, commander of the Songhu Garrison, came in from the conference room.

All senior generals stood up to show respect. Although many generals have the same military rank as Zhang Wenbai, they are far behind in terms of reputation and seniority. Besides, the Songhu Garrison Command controls all the national troops in the Songhu area , in terms of position, General Zhang is their boss.

General Zhang came to the first place. First, he glanced at the generals present at the meeting, and slightly pressed his hands down, signaling the generals to sit down:.

Everyone sat down: General Zhang took the documents and read out: "According to the order of the Supreme Military Commission, the Songhu Garrison Command was formally established."

Crack...all applaud.

“淞沪警备司令部下辖第一军,第七军,No.18军,88师,87师,22军45师,5252师,十九师,3232师,上海警备司令部,苏州保安团,江阴要塞司令部,海军第一舰队,空军第一,第三飞行大队.......”

"Now I will roll the roll, First Army Hu Zongnan."

"arrive."

"Seventh Army Liao Lei."

"arrive."

"No.18 Army Luo Zhuoying."

"arrive."

"No.80 Eighth Master Sun Yuanliang."

"arrive."

"No.80 Ninth Master Wang Jingjiu."

"arrive."

Chapter 4 announces the appointment, the general reaches out

"Hangzhou Special Operations Brigade Liang Xiao."

"arrive."

Liang Xiao hurriedly stood up when he heard the teacher call his name.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he stood up, he was watched by the generals at the meeting. These generals looked like they were looking at exotic animals.

These........senior generals are in the army most of the time, but they are very well informed. Almost everything about him, the generals here know a thing or two... .,......

After all, he is a popular person in front of the committee, and a powerful figure in the Military Intelligence Department. These...... senior generals naturally pay special attention to him.

"Songhu Garrison Headquarters has been formally established. The above-mentioned ministries are under the control of the Garrison Headquarters. I hope you will put state affairs first and work harder."

"According to the previous deployment of the Military and Political Council, form a triangular defensive formation in Shanghai, Kunshan, Suzhou and other places, build defense fortification bases, and step up preparations for war."

"Yes."

The senior generals responded.

General Zhang is a man of action, he doesn't have so many exaggerated words, he just announced the establishment of the Songhu Garrison Command, without cutting the ribbon, and without stereotyped speeches.

"Next I announce the appointment of the Military and Political Council."

"Appoint Zhang Zhizhong as the commander of the Songhu garrison."

"Appoint Huang Qixiang as Deputy Commander-in-Chief of Songhu Security."

"Appoint Wang Zhongchuan as Chief of Staff of the Songhu Security Command."

"Appoint Liang Xiao as chief of the Military Law Department of the Songhu Garrison Command."

"Appoint Li Shinian as chief of the Operations Section of the Songhu Garrison Command."

...Generally speaking, the position of the chief of the military law department is held concurrently by the deputy commander-in-chief or the chief of staff, but the chief of the military law department of the Songhu Garrison Headquarters has appointed the general of the military intelligence department, which is quite surprising It was beyond the expectation of the senior generals present, but they didn't take it seriously. The so-called chief of the military law department is actually... walking around the process. If there is a real war, how could the military law department manage them.

After reading out the appointment of the military and political council, General Zhang said: "Everyone, the country is weak, foreign enemies invaded, occupied our land, and enslaved our compatriots. As soldiers, our generation should be shrouded in horse leather and die in battle. Serve the party and the country, so as to live up to the country. The grace of nurturing."

"I won't say too much. The tasks given to you by the military and political council have been clarified. You just follow the deployment of the military and political council to build defense fortifications on the spot. From the police headquarters down, all military divisions and brigades have entered a state of first-level combat readiness. will dispatch."

"Yes."

The senior generals got up and said.

"Commander Zhang, the various departments of the First Army have already entered the reserve positions, relying on the favorable terrain to build defense fortifications, as you know, the construction of defense fortifications consumes a lot of money.

The [-] French currency allocated by the political council is basically enough..."

Hu Zongnan poured out bitter water, meaning that...the funds are not enough..., he reached out and asked General Zhang.

General Zhang, the commander-in-chief of the police, is actually... the mouthpiece of the military and political council, and the real power is still in the hands of the military and political council.

Hu Zongnan knew that General Zhang couldn't make the decision, but he still opened his mouth to say it. It can be seen that he didn't ask General Zhang for money at all.

As for his purpose of doing this, Liang Xiao couldn't figure it out for a while, but there were no other than two reasons, one was to take the opportunity to complain, and the other was to strive for the maximum benefit for himself.

As soon as Hu Zongnan opened his mouth, Sun Yuanliang, who was stationed at the outskirts of Shanghai, hurriedly said: "Commander Zhang, you know the situation of our 88th Division. It has been raining non-stop these days, and the defensive positions we built before were washed away by the rain. Appropriation,,, my brothers from the 88th division don't even have cover positions...."

Wang Jingjiu of the 89th Division immediately followed up and said: "Your 88th Division's trenches were washed away by the rain, and our 89th Division's camp was washed away by the flood. The officers and soldiers didn't even have a place to sleep at night, let alone a place to eat. The meal is ready, Commander-in-Chief Zhang, I implore the Chief of Police to allocate a sum of money for us to rebuild the barracks of the 89th Division..."

All of a sudden, the entire conference room was full of cries of poverty, and the senior generals were all crying for poverty, and even some generals said that they could not eat enough.

These generals are clever, knowing that the Sino-Japanese war is inevitable, and it might break out one day, so they asked the government for a sum of money in advance to prepare for emergencies.

Snapped.

General Zhang slapped the table hard, and said angrily: "You are all valuable generals, and you are facing a crisis in this country. You all reached out and asked me for money, are you okay?"

"Commander Zhang, calm down. I can't do anything about it. Our department was transferred from Hunan to Songhu. The Military and Political Council only allocated 5 yuan for the start-up fee. Up to now, it has not paid for the construction of the fortifications. I can only ask you for the humble job, otherwise My... division has more than 1 brothers, so we have to stand in the open and fight the Japanese."

3232 Division Major General Wang Xiushen complained.

The No.30 Second Division used to be the foundation of the Northwest Army. After the Central Plains War, Feng Yuxiang went to the field, and the No.30 Second Division was annexed by the Central Army. However, within the 3232 Division, the Northwest Army still has some strength, and the division commander Wang Xiushen is from the Northwest Army. , was excluded in the Central Army, and the 3232 Division was also known as the Northwest Army in the Central Army. It was both looked down upon by the Central Army and rejected by the Northwest Army. Life was miserable.

General Zhang knew a little about the situation of the 3232 Division, and immediately said: "I will tell the Military and Political Council about this matter. The construction of defense fortifications is the top priority of the party and the country, and we must not slack off."

"Thank you Commander Zhang."

When Wang Xiushen heard this, he immediately felt relieved.

"Chief of Military Justice."

General Zhang shouted.

"The humble job is here."

Liang Xiao hurriedly stood up.

"Immediately send someone into the outskirts of Shanghai to investigate and see if what Mr. Sun of the 88th Division and Mr. Wang of the 89th Division are true."

General Zhang said.

"Yes, I will immediately send someone to investigate."

Liang Xiao snickered in his heart, the teacher is trying to give Sun Yuanliang and Wang Jingjiu a bad blow.

Immediately, Sun Yuanliang's and Wang Jingjiu's expressions turned ugly.

They deliberately exaggerated the disaster just now, just to ask for more funds. If people from the military intelligence department were to investigate, what they said just now would be lying about the military situation.

"There's no need to investigate. Now that it's raining so heavily outside, it's not convenient to investigate."

Sun Yuanliang rolled his eyes and said with a sneer.

"I think so. It's raining heavily outside now, so it's very inconvenient to investigate. It's better to wait for the weather to improve before investigating."

Wang Jingjiu followed suit.

The generals here are not fools, and they all know that the two of them are talking nonsense with their eyes open, but no one has pointed it out. The generals in the peripheral positions, no one will offend them at this time.

"Director Liang, what do you think?"

General Zhang kicked the ball to Liang Xiao.

"Beiqian believes that now is indeed not the time to investigate."

Liang Xiao was very clear about General Zhang's thoughts. He kicked the ball to himself to give him a step up. Otherwise, Sun Yuanliang and Wang Jingjiu would not have good fruit if they really broke out. The general strategic policy, after all, is now an extraordinary period, Sun Yuanliang and Wang Jingjiu are both generals in front of the battle, it is not appropriate to confuse the situation at this time.

Chapter 4: Military Discipline Is Corrupted, Severely Punishment

Sun Yuanliang and Wang Jingjiu knew each other well and did not continue to quarrel.

General Zhang did not pursue the responsibility of the two of them.

Next, the chief of staff of the police reaffirmed to a group of senior generals the garrison positions of the ministries and the combat readiness regulations issued by the police.

The original mission of Liang Xiao’s Special Operations Brigade remains unchanged. They will continue to garrison the coastline around Jinshanwei in Hangzhou to prevent the Japanese from increasing their troops from the sea. In the eyes of the generals, the Military and Political Council intends to preserve Liang Xiao’s strength. After all, once the war breaks out , the battlefield must be in places as far away as Shanghai and Hangzhou, and the Japanese are out of reach. Secondly, even if the Japanese landed from the sea, they would not choose the landing site at Jinshanwei, Hangzhou. The special warfare brigade stationed in the Jinshanwei area is purely for preservation Strength, however, this is the decision of the Military and Political Council, some generals will not speak out even if they are dissatisfied.

Finally, General Zhang announced that today's inaugural meeting has come to an end.

It was raining heavily outside, and it was unrealistic for the generals to return to the station in the rain. If something happened on the way, the loss would not be worth the loss. Therefore, the chief of the police chief of staff sent someone to book a hotel on the next street to let the generals have a good rest. , the personal safety of these generals will be entrusted to Liang Xiao, Chief of Military Jurisdiction, whoever makes Shanghai his domain, and protecting the safety of senior military generals is also his duty.

Liang Xiao is still very concerned about the safety of the senior generals. If something happens to these people in Shanghai, he, the chief of the secret service, must bear the responsibility that cannot be shirked.

Therefore, he asked Lei Zhenggang to lead [-] officers and soldiers of the Special Operations Brigade to guard the hotel layer by layer. Except for... senior generals and entourage, no one was allowed to enter the hotel. All the waiters go home on vacation, and the logistics staff of the Garrison Command serve as waiters.

Liang Xiao settled the security issues of the senior generals, politely declined the invitation of Hu Zongnan and other generals, and returned to the Songhu Garrison Headquarters.

General Zhang was sulking secretly in the office. At today's inaugural meeting, Hu Zongnan, Sun Yuanliang and others didn't give him any face as a Whampoa instructor, which made him almost unable to step down, which made him very unhappy.

"teacher."
