Ge Sanmin smiled and said to Lao Ye: "Don't worry, Stationmaster Ye, the brigade originally wanted to come to the rescue with men and horses in person, but later considered that if the New Fourth Army team came in, it would be unfavorable to you Stationmaster Ye, so I brought about 20 brothers to support the south, and the brigade also ordered Liu Tu Zining of our independent brigade to personally lead a group of brothers to Nanjing City in the starry night. was repelled by us, and now I don't think the commander of our independent brigade will need to rush here. ” "Yes, now we don't have to trouble Commander Liu to come with a large army, Commander Ge, you better go inside and rest for a while, let's discuss something."
Lao Ye said to Ge Sanmin.
Ge Sanmin and his entourage entered the building of the Nanjing Military Command Station, this is the first time in the world, the Communist Party-led Jiangbei New Fourth Army team actually entered the building of the Kuomintang Military Command Nanjing Station, this is absolutely impossible if it was changed ten years ago, Ge Sanmin's brothers were curious about the situation in the building, Lao Ye said to Ge Sanmin slightly apologetically: "Commander Ge, I won't tell you, I originally had the idea of washing my hands and retiring to Nanyang, after this infighting, I was completely discouraged, and decided not to do this military command from now on, Lao Chang and Xiao Liu They are my confidants, trustworthy, those brothers of the Nanjing Military Command Station, I will wait to explain to them clearly, if you are willing to follow your New Fourth Army, Commander Ge, you will accept them on behalf of the Zhou Wu Brigade and give them a way to go, if you are not willing to follow the New Fourth Army, then I will be responsible for arranging their back road, anyway, I myself am determined to go to Nanyang to do business, and I will not dare to mix in the disputes here. ” Listening to Lao Ye's meaning, he was going to quit the rivers and lakes and go to Nanyang to do business, and these military commanders at Nanjing Station were led by Lao Chang and Xiao Liu to follow Ge Sanmin and them who were willing to throw themselves into the New Fourth Army, and those who were unwilling to follow the New Fourth Army did it, Lao Ye planned to give them some resettlement money, so that they could fend for themselves, fly away, and avoid the rights and wrongs here.
When Ge Sanmin heard this, he couldn't be the master of this matter, so he hurriedly said to Lao Ye: "Stationmaster Ye, this is a big time, I have to ask our brigade seat clearly." “ Lao Ye hurriedly nodded: "Yes, what do you mean?"
Ge Sanmin immediately contacted Zhou Wu by radio, Zhou Wu heard that Lao Ye had this intention to go to Nanyang, so he hurriedly instructed Ge Sanmin: "I hope to persuade Lao Ye to come over, if it really can't be done, then respect Lao Ye's wishes, after you receive the military command team, you must not stay in Nanjing City for a long time, you should withdraw immediately, according to intelligence, there are already a large number of Kuomintang troops are moving in the direction of Nanjing City, it is estimated that Lao Jiang received the news of the internal struggle between the military commander and the Central Union, and decided to do it." ” After Ge Sanmin received Zhou Wu's instructions, he hurriedly said to Lao Ye: "The brigade has received information that a large number of Kuomintang troops are heading in the direction of Nanjing, and they want us to withdraw from here immediately and rush to the Jiangbei base area.
As soon as Lao Ye heard that it made sense, he hurriedly said to Lao Chang and Director Xiao Liu: "Call all the brothers at home, and I will say a few words to everyone."
More than 200 military commanders immediately rushed to the open space in front of the building, the ground is now a mess, but people don't seem to care about the mess on the ground, they know that this time the stationmaster must have something important to announce, this decision is related to their own future and life, so they stretched their necks and listened carefully to Lao Ye and said to them: "Brothers of Nanjing Station, now we have been forced to this point by the Central Union, and we are almost killed by their Central Commanders and teams.
Fortunately, the head of the Jiangbei New Fourth Army came to rescue us in time, otherwise we would have to lie here now, so to speak, our lives are saved by the brothers of the Jiangbei New Fourth Army, I plan to wash my hands and not do the military command, if you are willing to follow Captain Chang and Director Xiao Liu to defect to the New Fourth Army, please stand on the left, if you don't want to defect, you are not reluctant, for the sake of life and death together under the iron hooves of the Japanese devils, I am responsible for issuing severance pay, In the future, you will each go away and fend for yourself, let's be brothers for this reason, I hope there will be a period in the future."
As soon as Ge Sanmin heard that Lao Ye was going to make a decision here, he hurriedly whispered to Lao Ye and said to him: "Stationmaster Ye, what the brigade means is that you can think about it and take your subordinate military commanders to our independent brigade, and the brigade is eagerly looking forward to your past."
Lao Ye heard this, his heart was very moved, only felt a warm current into his heart, but he had his thoughts, he felt that he had been in the Kuomintang for so long to deal with the Communist Party, if it wasn't for the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, maybe now he would be a big butcher in the eyes of the Communist Party, before the Anti-Japanese War, Lao Ye and the military commanders really arrested a lot of underground Communist Party members, and now if he throws himself over, I'm afraid that he is not easy to adapt to over there, or go away, away from this place of right and wrong.
In the future, if you have the opportunity, it's not too late to make plans.
Lao Ye smiled and said to Ge Sanmin: "I understand the kindness of your brigade, but I have made up my mind, forgive me for not being able to work with your brigade, if there is a chance in the future, we will still meet again with your brother, Ye has worked hard for the Kuomintang for most of his life, but in the end he ended up like this, it is a bit ridiculous to say, today I can get the help of your New Fourth Army and pick up a life, I am very content, and I don't dare to think about other things anymore."
Lao Ye's meaning is very clear, he doesn't want to toss anymore, he is too tired, and he needs to find a quiet place to rest.
Ge Sanmin heard this statement of the stationmaster of Lao Ye, and knew that he had made up his mind, and it would be useless to say more, so he immediately nodded and said to him: "Okay, we respect your opinion, do everything according to your hospital, and never interfere or obstruct it."
"Thank you for your understanding, I said a long time ago that the Communist Party will definitely be able to achieve great things in the future, and this is estimated to be clear in the near future."
Lao Ye said.
At this time, the military commanders under Lao Ye had already stood in line, Ge Sanmin hurriedly took a look, there were almost about the same number of people on the left and right, half to half, Lao Ye looked at those brothers and said: "Brothers, this is your own choice, now I will issue the travel fee, each of whom has a copy, although it is not much, but it is enough for you to fend for yourself, and I will also pay the travel expenses to those brothers who defected to the New Fourth Army, after all, they are all subordinates who live and die with me, and I will never be disadvantaged."
Lao Ye waved his hand, and several military commander brothers immediately brought out two large baskets of the ocean, as well as some gold, silver, jewelry and banknotes, Lao Ye said to Director Xiao Liu: "Give all these things to the brothers."
Director Xiao Liu stepped forward and looked at those things carefully, and suddenly he turned around and said to the brothers of the military commander: "Brothers, our stationmaster has taken out all his savings, we can't share the stationmaster's private property, we have to stay and let the stationmaster live." ” As soon as the brothers below heard this, they shouted: "Stationmaster, we can't divide your private property, even if we take it, we won't be at ease." ” Lao Ye was very moved when he heard this: "Thank you brothers, I have left the fare to go to Nanyang, even if I personally help you, you also have a small family, in this troubled world, I can't help you much, even if this money is my compensation for the brothers who have been born and died with me in the past few years, it's not much, but it's just meaningful, you don't have to be polite." ” The brothers of the military commanders who were standing on the right side of the queue who were unwilling to follow Lao Chang and them to defect to the New Fourth Army immediately churned in their hearts when they heard Lao Ye's words: "Our stationmaster even took out his own private property and distributed it to us, and we are still thinking about our own little abacus, which is too unusual, people have to talk about conscience." ” So, a military commander brother on the right shouted: "The stationmaster treats us like this, we are still here with our own little calculations, it is too unacceptable, let's go to the New Fourth Army, there are those who are willing to go with me to stand on the left side with me, and we will not be reluctant if we are really in difficulty, and we will follow our own wishes."
We'll be brothers in the future."
In this way, a large number of military commander brothers who stood on the right side stood on the left again, and there were less than twenty or thirty brothers left on the right, Lao Ye said to them: "You choose the path that suits you, don't look back, quickly take these belongings and go."
The brothers came to collect their belongings in an orderly manner, and Ge Sanmin sent scouts to reconnoiter the surrounding situation, and after a while, the scouts rushed over and reported: "The regiment commander is not good, a large number of Kuomintang troops are coming from the southeast, it looks like they are coming towards us, what should we do now?"
As soon as Ge Sanmin heard that the Kuomintang army was coming, Lao Ye here they had to hurry, otherwise they couldn't run away, it was not good to be blocked by the Kuomintang army in Nanjing, he hurriedly said to Lao Ye: "Stationmaster Ye, I think we have to speed up, a large number of Kuomintang troops have rushed here, and it is estimated that they will be able to arrive here soon." ” As soon as Lao Ye heard that the Kuomintang army was coming, he immediately asked Xiao Liu to distribute the money to the brothers who stayed behind, and the rest of the military commanders who defected to the New Fourth Army followed Ge Sanmin and returned to the Tianchang Independent Brigade Brigade Headquarters to distribute it not too late.
Ge Sanmin immediately divided the more than 100 military commander brothers into two teams, plus the more than 20 brothers he brought, hurriedly divided the vehicles where the military commander was standing, and ran towards the outside of Nanjing, and at the same time radioed Zhou Wu, asking him to quickly order the fat man who was rushing here with a group to speed up the march to meet Lao Ye and them t1706231537:
