Chapter 73 The Clever of the War of Resistance (I)
"Bada" Chen Xiuwen shook his hand and the chopsticks fell to the ground. The thing that was most worried finally happened.
"Is there any news about casualties? Is there any news about my elder brother?" Chen Xiuwen stood up quickly, supported his hands on the table, and asked quickly with a pale face.
He shook his head nervously with an intoxicated expression and said, "No news has been received yet. All the public organizations of the secret agencies in Xi'an have lost the news. This news was transmitted from their secret organization. Now the martial law in Xi'an is in place, and there is no news of casualties. However, from the early morning of this morning, the gunfire in Huaqingchi has not stopped. It is estimated that the Northeast Army and the Chairman's Guard have exchanged fire."
"Didn't there be any news about Peng Hui and the others?" Chen Xiuwen asked again.
Chen Zui shook his head and said bitterly: "They set out on the 5th. I don't know if they have arrived in Xi'an yet? Even if they arrive now, I'm afraid."
Chen Zui didn't say anything anymore, but just looked at Chen Xiuwen with a worried look on his face.
"Damn, what should be come, finally everything is here. If my elder brother has a few mistakes, I will even sacrifice my life to Zhang Hanqing's head." Chen Xiuwen said gritting his teeth. Chen Xiuwen had never had a good impression of the general who did not resist. In a hurry, he cursed without saying a word.
Chen Xiuwen said it was unintentional, but Chen was really shocked. He immediately thought of Chen Xiuwen asking him to pay more attention to the situation in Xi'an a month ago. He hurriedly said: "Brother, have you expected that what happened today?"
Chen Xiuwen was also shocked and immediately realized that he had lost his words because of his anxiety. Looking at the intoxicated and confused expression, his mind quickly turned: "I was just worried. You may not know some things. Last time my elder brother told me that the principal went to supervise the battle this time, mainly because Zhang Hanqing was not effective in suppressing bandits, and he also had sex with him. I began to worry about whether Zhang Hanqing would be anxious. For this reason, I also reminded my elder brother. Damn, now it seems that what I don't want to see is still happening, and I don't know how my elder brother is now." As he said that, Chen Xiuwen couldn't help but sigh deeply, with a look of worry.
Chen Zui really didn't understand these situations. After listening to Chen Xiuwen's one-sided introduction, he couldn't help but nodded, and looked at Chen Xiuwen with admiration, and then immediately said with concern: "Brother, what should we do now?"
Chen Zui's words reminded Chen Xiuwen at once, making him realize that as a time traveler, he knew that the Xi'an incident would be resolved peacefully. What he was worried about now was his elder brother's comfort. But for Chen Zui and other officers and soldiers in the army, they were more confused when they received the news. After all, the chairman was the leader of the country, and now he was detained by Zhang Yang, and he was not aware of life and death, which would inevitably cause panic in the army.
Chen Xiuwen took a deep breath, calmed down his mood as much as possible, and asked, "Does anyone else know about your telegram?"
This intoxication was not vague. He shook his head and said, "No one knows. The report was sent using the original special password of our secret service, which I translated by myself."
"Okay, now you immediately notify the Chief of Staff and battalion commanders to come to the regiment headquarters for a meeting. In addition, let your people move these days to prevent the Japanese from taking advantage of this opportunity to take advantage of the situation."
After receiving the order, Chen Xiuwen hurriedly left the arrangement. At this time, he had no interest in eating. Chairman Jiang's life and death and the situation of the country naturally had great people to worry about. What he was most worried about now was the safety of Chen Xiude and the stability of his own troops.
After a while, Deputy Commander Zheng Huaishan, Chief of Staff Qiao Zhen and First Battalion Commander Zhang Zhengjie came to the regiment headquarters first. Seeing Chen Xiuwen's serious expression and pale face, the three of them were stunned at the same time. Zheng Huaishan hurried forward and asked carefully: "What happened to the regiment throne?"
Chen Xiuwen glanced at them three times: "Zhang Xueliang and Yang Hucheng launched a mutiny in Xi'an early this morning, detaining the chairman and all the central officials in Xi'an." As he said, Chen Xiuwen's tone paused and sighed, "It also includes my elder brother."
This sentence made the three of them stunned. Zheng Huaishan sat down on the stool, while Qiao Zhen opened his mouth wide. Even Zhang Zhengjie, who was born in the 19th Route Army and had never had a good impression of Chiang Kai-shek, was stunned on the spot.
"Is this news accurate?" After a while, Qiao Zhen came back to his senses and asked.
Chen Xiuwen handed the telegram in his hand to Qiao Zhen. After reading the telegram quickly, Qiao Zhen sat down powerlessly.
"It's over, I'll have to beat my own people again." Zheng Huaishan was an old corpse and couldn't help but murmur.
Qiao Zhen had just reacted and quickly stood up and said, "Captain, the most important thing for us to stabilize the troops immediately to prevent commotion."
Chen Xiuwen nodded in praise. Qiao Zhen was indeed a competent chief of staff. Faced with such a big change, the response measures proposed were still very appropriate.
"I convened everyone for a meeting this time to stabilize the troops and prevent the Japanese from taking the opportunity to catch fish." Chen Xiuwen said calmly.
After Qiao Zhen nodded, he asked again: "Captain, is there no news about Chief Chen yet?"
Although the spy company is directed by Chen Xiuwen, Qiao Zhen had already noticed that the spy company commander Peng Hui and Shen Xiuwen's personal guard Chen Yi and a squad of the spy company disappeared a week ago. He vaguely felt that their disappearance had some connection with what happened today.
Chen Xiuwen looked at Qiao Zhen. When he saw Qiao Zhen showing more concern, he sighed slightly and said, "There is no news yet. Do your best, let me leave my destiny."
Qiao Zhen nodded silently. Only then did he understand why Chen Xiuwen showed anxiety and his temper became very irritable during this period. Although he didn't understand how Chen Xiuwen could find clues in advance.
After a while, Chen Zui brought Zhou Suping and Cheng Dean, who were stationed at Longhua Airport, who were picked up by himself, arrived. He was also shocked when he heard the news.
As the meeting began, the group's confidential agent rushed to report with a telegram. After reading the telegram, Chen Xiuwen said to everyone watching him: "Beijing-Shanghai Security Command, Commander-in-Chief Zhang called: The Xi'an mutiny is in chaos, your troops should be in chaos, wait for the battle, and pay close attention to the movements of the Shanghai Neon Army."
Chen Xiuwen also felt relieved at this time. It seemed that General Zhang, his backer, was still clear-headed. After reading the telegram, Chen Xiuwen glanced at everyone and shouted: "Now I order the whole regiment to enter a state of combat readiness, pay close attention to the every move of the Japanese Marine Corps."
While the Third Shanghai Security Regiment was taking action nervously, in the afternoon, with Zhang Xueliang and Yang Hucheng sending out nationwide electricity to eight proposals for saving the country, news of the Xi'an Incident spread all over the country.
"Reorganize the Nanjing government, accommodate all parties and factions, and jointly be responsible for saving the country. Stop all civil wars. Immediately release the patriotic leaders arrested in Shanghai. Release all political prisoners in the country. Open up the patriotic movement of the people. All political freedoms of people's assembly and association. Immediately follow Premier Sun's will. The national salvation meeting was held immediately. The above are the eight proposals for saving the country put forward by the two generals Zhang Xueliang and Yang Hucheng. According to the news that our station just received, early this morning, Zhang Xueliang and Yang Hucheng decided to implement military rebellion, and gunfire sounded everywhere in Xi'an City."
Listening to the special news broadcast of the female announcer on the radio, Chen Xiuwen was worried about his elder brother's safety, and he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. It was precisely because of the outbreak of the Xi'an Incident that the two parties of the Kuomintang ended the ten-year civil war, which led to the second cooperation between the Kuomintang and the United Front and established an anti-Japanese united front. He didn't have to worry about being sent to fight the civil war. However, after already familiarizing himself with the real history of this era, Chen Xiuwen also admired GCD very much. First, he wiped out three divisions of the Northeast Army, and then took the initiative to negotiate with Zhang Hanqing, using both soft and hard skills, which prompted the young and reckless young marshal to launch the Xi'an Incident, winning a chance to breathe. Such superb political means and follow the trend, it is no wonder that Chiang Kai-shek is not an opponent.
"Report." A report from the adjutant Ma Congping outside the door interrupted Chen Xiuwen's thoughts.
"Reporting group, my wife called me just now and asked you to go home quickly." Ma Congping was in the meeting minutes when he was in the meeting. He knew that Chen Xiuwen's elder brother, Chief Chen, now he was not aware of life and death. He obviously knew the meaning of letting Chen Xiuwen go home, and his expression seemed very painful.
As soon as the news spread, the family must have known it. Chen Xiuwen shook his head and ordered in a low mood: "Prepare the car."
When Chen Xiuwen returned home, the Shen family courtyard had already been in chaos. Sister-in-law He Zhenru sat on the sofa with her child in tears. Chen Xiuping and Yu Wenwan also sat beside her wiping tears. Tang Wenbin stood there and seemed at a loss. Seeing Chen Xiuwen coming in, Tang Wenbin hurriedly came up and said, "Luanfu, Zhang Xueliang and Yang Hucheng launched a mutiny in Xi'an, the chairman was detained, and the eldest brother was not sure of his life or death."
"Brother-in-law, I know everything." Chen Xiuwen nodded and said softly.
"Brother, have you heard from your elder brother? Are you okay?" He Zhenru quickly stood up, grabbed Chen Xiuwen and asked anxiously.
Chen Xiuwen tried to make his expression lighter as much as possible, and reluctantly showed a smile and comforted in a low voice: "Sister-in-law, don't worry, brother will be fine."
"Even the chairman was detained, your elder brother and the others would not know what would happen? The radio said that guns were fired everywhere in Xi'an City from the early morning of this morning. If your elder brother had a few things, how could we live?" He Zhenru cried with a hug.
"Sister-in-law, didn't you tell you just now? Brother will not be in trouble. I have received news from Xi'an that the gun was fired because the Northeast Army and the Chairman's Guard had exchanged fire. Besides, Zhang Xueliang and Yang Hucheng have detained the Chairman. They are going to negotiate terms with the government. This is like kidnapping. They want a ransom. They will not hurt the hostages before the ransom is received. Brother and the central officials are bargaining chips for them to bargain, and there will be no trouble." Chen Xiuwen had to think of a law to persuade him.
"But, will the National Government agree to their request?" He Zhenru looked at Chen Xiuwen with a gaze.
"Don't worry, the government has started to discuss meetings now. If you want the chairman to be in their hands, can they not agree? Sister-in-law, please relax. My elder brother will come back in less than half a month." Chen Xiuwen said with a smile.
"real?"
"Of course it's true."
As he said that, Chen Xiuwen winked at Yu Wenwan beside him. Yu Wenwan hurriedly supported He Zhenru and comforted him in a low voice, and accompanied him upstairs with Shen Xiuping.
"Liangfu, what you said to your sister-in-law just now is true?" After the three women went upstairs, Tang Wenbin hurriedly stepped forward and asked.
Chen Xiuwen nodded and said, "Most of them are true. The chairman is the national leader. Zhang Xueliang and Yang Hucheng cannot detain the chairman for long, unless they are willing to bear the eternal infamy."
Tang Wenbin nodded with deep understanding, then pointed to the closed study door, sighed and said, "Dad is still in the study room alone. After hearing this news in the afternoon, Dad has not come out."
Chen Xiuwen walked to the study door silently and knocked on the door, but there was no response inside. He gently pushed open the door and saw the old man sitting on the chair with his eyes slightly closed, without saying a word.
Chen Xiuwen walked over and called out softly: "Dad."
The old man then opened his eyes and said, "You are back."
Chen Xiuwen nodded, sat down opposite the old man, and comforted softly: "Dad, don't worry, brother won't be in trouble?"
The old man looked at Chen Xiuwen and suddenly sighed: "Your elder brother is a soldier, and life, death, good fortune and fortune will be destined. If there is anything unexpected happening this time, he will be loyal to the country. I can only hate those traitors who use great justice as a pretext, but do despicable things."
Chen Xiuwen felt sad and couldn't help but say, "Dad, don't worry, the child had sent someone to Xi'an a few days ago, and find a way to rescue his elder brother. If there is anything wrong with the elder brother, the child will definitely kill his enemy and avenge his elder brother."
The old man suddenly turned apart and scolded Chen Xiuwen: "National hatred and family hatred, you must remember that national hatred will always override personal grudges. You are a soldier. When you put on this military uniform, I once said that you would serve the country in the future, expel foreign humiliation, and restore my northeastern rivers and mountains. This is also the reason why I took the word liberation for you. I hope you can remember it firmly."
