"Okay, let's do as Commander Lu said. Our nine divisions will stay in Henan and join the Northwest Army. Your nine divisions will be in Zhili and Rehe. Please pray for your own blessings, and the meeting will end in peace."

"I didn't expect that Yang Hucheng and Li Huchen would also join the Northwest Army." After the meeting, Zhang Zhijiang, Shi Jingting, and Li Mingzhong went to Zhang Zhijiang's office

"Although they are both deputy army commanders, Lu Zhonglin and Song Zheyuan don't trust them. After all, they are not like us who have been following the commander-in-chief, but Shi Yousan. Isn't this kid always under your command?" Shi Jingting Can understand Yang Hucheng and Li Huchen, but not Shi Yousan

"This kid, I guess Lu Zhonglin has done him some good. He is a typical example of whoever has a milk is a mother." When Li Mingzhong heard about Shi Yousan, he curled his lips and said

"That's fine. If our nine divisions are reorganized, disarmament will be easier. I just don't know how many divisions the Northwest Army will give us." This is what Zhang Zhijiang wants to know the most. Everyone wants to have more strength under his command

"The day before yesterday, I read the annual speech of the Northwest District. They wanted to expand the troops to 25 divisions. They now have [-] divisions and one armored division. What they can give us is three divisions." Can guess, Shi Jingting knows the answer without even thinking about it

"Three divisions are still acceptable. Our army was only tens of thousands of people before, and then 10,000+ suddenly expanded to 30 troops. The number of troops has increased, but our equipment is insufficient, and the quality of the troops is also uneven. How many can we have? Combat power is now given to us with the establishment of three divisions. According to the establishment of the Northwest Army, we can leave 4 troops, so the remaining ones are all elite troops. For example, [-] troops in Henan Province are relatively easy." Li Mingzhong is a little bit looking forward to disarmament what happened after that

"Are you sure you're not a teacher?" Zhang Zhijiang asked

"Tired of it, I decided to abandon the military and go into politics. If there are three divisions, you two plus Yang Hucheng, or Li Huchen are exactly three division commanders. It's just that these people who are used to being division commanders don't know if they will make mistakes if they become regimental leaders. awkward"

"Being awkward is better than losing a battle and dying"

"Look, the commander-in-chief has only been away for two days, and he can't wait to separate the family. I don't know what benefits he has given Yan Xishan to arrest him." Song Zheyuan said dissatisfied

"Hmph, forget it, regardless of them, we can't hand over the territory we have finally won. I think they are frightened, and they don't think that Guo Songling's tens of thousands of troops can beat Zhang Zuolin and almost ran to seek refuge. Our 30 troops are afraid What?" Lu Zhonglin snorted coldly, but even though he said that, he still felt a little guilty in his heart. Everyone knew that Guo Songling fell into the hands of the Japanese. The Japanese would intervene last time, but this time it is hard to guarantee that they will not intervene.

"I think we should cooperate with the Southern Nationalist Government. We declare to obey the leadership of the Nationalist Government and overthrow the current government. Anyway, now Peiping is in our hands." Liu Yufen is courageous

"It's a good idea, it's a response to the Northern Expedition they've been promoting recently." Lu Zhonglin was tempted by Liu Yufen's proposal

On January [-], Zhang Zhijiang issued a telegram stating that he and nine National Army generals would return to Henan, obey the Beijing government, and join the Northwest Army at the same time.

On the same day, Lu Zhonglin, Song Zheyuan, and Liu Yufen jointly issued a telegram, and their three armies accepted the leadership of the Nationalist Government of the Republic of China

The split of the national army before the war surprised everyone (to be continued)

Chapter 66 Words Come True

Perhaps because of the Chinese New Year, there was a scene of peace on the land of China, and there was no war from south to north.Although there was no war, one incident after another spread to everyone's ears, which was even more shocking than the war.

It has not been a week since Feng Yuxiang announced his resignation, and the national army, which was at its peak, declared a split.Acting commander-in-chief Zhang Zhijiang announced to join the Northwest Army and obey the leadership of the Beijing government.The original nine divisions were reorganized into three divisions, namely the No. 20 Division, 22 Division, and 23 Division of the Northwest Army. The division commanders were Zhang Zhijiang, Shi Jingting, and Yang Hucheng.

Li Mingzhong served as the chairman of the Henan Provincial Government, and Zhang Zhijiang served as the governor of Henan Province.

The day after the news came out, Lu Zhonglin, Song Zheyuan, and Liu Yufen issued a telegram in Beijing, announcing that the Beijing government was an illegal government, and all members of Duan Qirui's cabinet in Beijing were arrested.At the same time, it was announced that the three armies would join the National Revolutionary Army and obey the leadership of the Guangzhou Nationalist Government.

In the afternoon of the same day, Zhang Zuolin issued a presidential decree, exempting Lu Zhonglin, Song Zheyuan, and Liu Yufen from all posts, and declaring the armed forces of the three to be illegal.Ask them to immediately lay down their arms and surrender, and release the imprisoned prime minister and cabinet members.At the same time, Wu Peifu was appointed as the acting prime minister to exercise the powers of the prime minister. At the same time, he appointed himself the commander-in-chief of the Republic of China's sea, land and air, and appointed Zhang Anle as the deputy commander-in-chief.

Wu Peifu, Zhang Anle, and Sun Chuanfang issued a telegram, resolutely supporting President Zhang Zuolin, never recognizing the Guangzhou National Government, and calling on the people of the whole country to fight against the anti-revolutionary armed forces.

The Guangzhou National Government also responded quickly. Wang Jingwei appointed Song Zheyuan as the governor of Zhili, Liu Yufen as the chairman of the Zhili Provincial Government, and Lu Zhonglin as the chairman of the Rehe Provincial Government and concurrently as the governor.Lu Zhonglin's Department is the No.11 Army of the National Revolutionary Army, Liu Yufen's Department is the No.12 Army of the National Revolutionary Army, and Song Zheyuan's Department is the No.13 Army of the National Revolutionary Army.

Zhang Anle was snickering in his headquarters at this time. There was an extra province in Henan. The industry in Henan Province was not good, only a mere 5 points. What Zhang Anle valued was not Henan's industry, but its geographical location.With Henan, Zhang Anle's current territory can be connected into one piece, and Henan is also rich in mineral resources, the most famous of which is Pingdingshan.

Pingdingshan City is rich in aboveground and underground resources.57 kinds of minerals have been identified.The total reserves of raw coal are 103 billion tons, with reserves of more than 80 billion tons, accounting for 51% of the total reserves of Henan Province. One of the large iron mining areas; the predicted total reserves of sodium salt are 6064 billion tons, the recoverable reserves are 60.5 billion tons, the average product is 2300%, and the average thickness of a single layer is 10.8 meters. The development and deep processing of salt fields in Pingdingshan have become important in Henan Province. industry.Pingdingshan is rich in water resources, with a total of 89 large and medium-sized reservoirs, including 27 large reservoirs with a total capacity of 174 billion cubic meters.The total amount of aboveground and groundwater is 4 billion cubic meters, and the abundant water resources provide good conditions for industrial and agricultural production and urban water use.

Pingdingshan is a famous coal producing area as well as an iron ore producing area.This is a place suitable for establishing a heavy industry base. It has convenient transportation, is not very close to the coast compared to Shandong, and has abundant human resources.

Archie Ryan brought a loan of 8 million U.S. dollars from Belgium. It would never be necessary to repair the railway. About 1 million U.S. dollars would be enough. He decided to allocate [-] million U.S. dollars to Henan for the construction of coal mines, steel plants, Power plant use.In this way, there are three heavy industry bases in Mongolia, Baotou and Pingdingshan in the northwest, which can fully meet the development needs within ten years.

As the saying goes, people feel refreshed on happy occasions, and Zhang Anle is like this, and now he is very happy every day.All the subordinates felt very strange, what kind of happy event had happened to Chairman Zhang, and they asked each other, passed it back and forth, and later, the people below all asked whether Chairman Zhang had a child.

This was known by Yang Du, so Yang Du ran to ask Zhang Anle.Hearing Yang Du's question, Zhang Anle froze for a moment.

"Who did you hear this from?"

"Everyone is talking, Chairman Zhang must have a child, otherwise how could he be so happy." Unexpectedly, Yang Du also loves gossip, and he is honest.

"Of course not, it's all about disappearing. By the way, is there anything else?" Seeing that Yang Du didn't sit down or leave, Zhang Anle saw off the guests directly.

"No more, I'm leaving now." Yang Du said quickly when he heard that Zhang Anle had kicked him out, and he turned around while muttering, "It's been more than half a year, there should be some movement."

Hearing these words, Zhang Anle really wished he could pick up the inkstone on the desk and throw it at his head, who is this, it is disrespectful.

After Yang Du left, Zhang Anle picked up the documents on the table and wanted to take a good look at this year's financial plan.I had just read a page when someone knocked on the door again.

"Please come in." Zhang Anle put down the document in his hand, wondering who it was that came back.

The door opened, and a handsome middle-aged man in military uniform entered.The moment the man opened his mouth, he ruined his heroic image.

"Commander, I heard that you have a child. Is it a boy or a girl?" The person who came was none other than the Chief of Staff of the Northwest Army, so was Tim Xinge.

"Timu Xinge! Tell me about you, the chief of the general staff of the Northwest Army. You don't want to train and fight, and you come to care about whether I have children like a gossip. Is this something you, a chief of staff, should care about? ?”

Zhang Anle suddenly raised his voice three degrees, which made Timu Xinge confused.

"I..." He didn't know what to say for a moment.

"If you have nothing to do, go to Fu Zuoyi to have a look. I don't know how his armored division is going. On the future battlefield, the armored force will be the main force. The construction of our army's armored force is related to the future. Whether we can win the war against the enemy. This is what you, the chief of the general staff, should care about, so go find him." Zhang Anle issued the order to evict the guest again.

Timu Xinge hummed, turned and left.As I walked, I thought in my heart, why are you so fierce if you don’t say it.

Zhang Anle didn't expect that this group of people, in their forties and fifties, would still gossip like this.He threw the document on the desk angrily, and at this moment the phone rang.

"Hello, who is it?"

"Chairman Zhang, I'm Lin Changmin, I heard that your wife is pregnant with twins, congratulations..."

"You made the wrong number!" Zhang Anle hung up the phone with a snap, but Lin Changmin was also a gossip guy with twins?!

At this time the phone really rang, Zhang Anle grabbed the phone and said, "You made a mistake."

"Commander, I'm Hong Ying. Madam fainted this morning. Come back and have a look." Wang Shuyi's close maid Hong Ying's voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Did you call the doctor? Okay, I'll be right back." Zhang Anle heard that Wang Shuyi had fainted, so she hung up the phone and went out.

Wang Xiaozhu came out and Zhang Anle hurriedly followed, "Commander, where are we going?"

"go home."

After returning home, Zhang Anle went straight to Wang Shuyi's bedroom, entered the bedroom and saw Wang Shuyi lying on the bed, with Hong Ying waiting beside her.

"What's going on, why did you faint so accidentally, has the doctor been here?" Zhang Anle sat on the edge of the bed, and put her hand on Wang Shuyi's forehead, which didn't feel very hot.

"The doctor just left." Seeing Zhang Anle's questioning, Hongying replied from the side.

"I don't have a fever, why is your face so red?" Zhang Anle said to himself, and suddenly an idea popped up in his mind.

"Are you pregnant?" His voice trembled with excitement.
