"If there is no Northwest Army, as long as Zhang Xueliang is in hand and the righteous cause of the War of Resistance is used, there will be no need to worry about the Northeast Army not being used by the commission.
But at present, the main force of the Northeast Army is in Shaanxi, and a few parts are still in Hebei.
In the 17th Route Army Under the joint suppression with the Northwest Army, and the Northeast Army's eagerness to resist the war, most generals quite agreed with Jiang Li's active resistance, but a few People who were in contact with the central government before are now afraid of Jiang Li's power and may not dare to take any action."
Kong Xiangxi analyzed, "Taking Zhang Xueliang now will not only fail to break up the Northeastern Army, but will also cause trouble among the Northeastern Army.
But given the current situation, Nanjing can’t do anything to Zhang Xueliang, so it’s better to exchange him for some chips with Northwest.”
Chairman Jiang frowned.
He knew that many people, including Kong Xiangxi, were very interested in the terms of weapons exchange between the two divisions proposed by Northwest.
Moreover, the weapons provided by the Northwest are not bad.
According to the reactions of some officers and soldiers, in addition to the artillery being slightly inferior to the German ones, the rifles as the main force are even better than Mauser, and the performance of mortars and machine guns It's pretty good.
"Zhang Hanqing's net worth is not only two divisions, but at least five divisions."
Chairman Jiang felt a little resentful when he thought of his situation in Xi'an.
"Commissioned, Northwest may not accept the price offered for the equipment of the five divisions."
Kong Xiangxi said with a wry smile.
"The price is high, and the money is paid back.
Not only the equipment of the five divisions, but also the northwest has to make concessions in Sichuan.
The army in northern Sichuan has asked him to transfer out of Sichuan, but Nanjing also has to fight, and Sichuan should obey the central government's dispatch.
There should be no disputes in the northwest.
"Chairman Jiang waved his hand and said, "It is your responsibility to discuss this matter with the people in the northwest."
"Okay.
Let's talk to the people in the northwest first."
Kong Xiangxi nodded.
While making his own plans in Nanjing.
At this time, Northwest China had quickly made arrangements and assigned Liu Zhanxiong's 3rd Army to take charge of Liu Zhendong's 7th Division and Li Chunrun's 16th Division.
Sun Youru of the 3rd Shaanxi Guard Brigade.
Wu Keren of the 67th Army was transferred to take charge of Jin Kuibi's 107th Division, Zhang Wenqing's 108th Division, and Tan Zixin's 10th Cavalry Division.
The two armies formed the Pinglu Group Army, with Zhao Tieshu serving as the commander of the 2nd Group Army.
Sun Liren's 2nd Mechanized Brigade was directly assigned to the group army headquarters, and 6 aviation squadrons were selected.
Several air defense battalions.
"Although the young marshal is responsible for the loss of the Northeast, this time in order to promote the unity of all forces to resist Japan, he did not hesitate to take risks alone, regardless of personal safety.
Now the northwest is negotiating with Nanjing to recover the young marshal.
However, although the young marshal has not yet Back then, the cause of the War of Resistance was urgent.
This time in the Northeast, we hope that all departments will work together to fight this national war.
Whether it is the 15th Route Army in the past or the 17th Route Army in the future, Northeast China will fight for it.
Army.
If the army commander flees and the division commander flees, he will be killed according to military law.
If he wants to be a deserter, even if he runs to the south, the south won't be able to protect him."
Jiang Li stood up and pressed his hands on the table, and said murderously to the senior generals on both sides of the conference table.
"Commander, don't worry.
It's a national war right now.
If the country doesn't exist, how can our soldiers have any dignity in the world?
Even if all the 17th Route Army is wiped out, they will still have to fight the Japanese army to the end."
Yang Hucheng responded first.
"The Northeastern Army will never retreat this time.
If there is a deserter, there is no need for the commander to take action.
I will personally lead the troops to skin him."

Liu Duoquan, He Zhuguo, Yu Xuezhong and others expressed their stance.
"This is a multi-party joint operation.
The Japanese army is strong and our side is weak.
If we still hold on to the previous sectarian view to deal with the Japanese, we will have lost three points before fighting.
I believe that there is a mountain of military orders.
I don't need to say more.
So don’t command the Northeast Army with the support of the generals of the Northeast Army.
If the idea of commanding the Northwest Army delays the war, I will punish those who cause serious consequences and send them to a military court."
Yang Hucheng continued what he said.
His Shaanxi army was originally the weakest.
However, this time he left Shaanxi in the east and went north to fight the war.
As the commander of the 3rd Army, he had under his command, in addition to the original direct troops, two divisions belonging to the 15th Route Army, two divisions of the Northeast Army, and an artillery brigade.
A cavalry division.
Compared with Zhao Tieshu's 2nd Army, it has one more army.
Large-scale mobilization is taking place in the northwest.
The 29th Army originally had high fighting spirit, but Song Zheyuan, who had been quite firm in the Great Wall War of Resistance, wavered to a certain extent at this time.
At this time, Nanjing also realized that the Japanese army wanted to launch a war in North China.
Chairman Chiang Kai-shek personally sent a message to Song Zheyuan and asked Song Zheyuan to rush back to Peiping or Baoding as soon as possible.
However, Song Zheyuan did not obey the order.
He sent a call back to Chairman Chiang on the same day, saying that the war here would cease this morning.
The North China troops have the responsibility to defend their territory and should work hard to cope with the current situation.
Song Zheyuan did not obey the order to arrange the front line as soon as possible and actively resist the war.
Instead, he ordered Zhang Zizhong to negotiate with the Japanese army.
Song Zheyuan himself also stayed in Tianjin and did not rush directly to Peiping or Baoding to take charge of the overall situation.
Instead, they stayed in Tianjin to contact the Japanese, trying to exchange certain concessions for the Japanese to stop fighting.
However, Japan's actions at this time have become more and more obvious.
Nanjing and Northwest China have simultaneously obtained 5 divisions of Japanese troops that have been mobilized and dispatched in the country.
The movement of troops and generals has not slowed down at all.
The Kwantung Army has successively sent 20 trains of troops to the Tiandangzhen area.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Nanjing negotiated with the Japanese envoy in China on many occasions regarding the Marco Polo Bridge Incident.
Chairman Chiang Kai-shek also delivered a speech in Lushan declaring his determination to resist the war.
At the same time, he personally met with the envoys of Britain, the United States, Germany and France in China, trying to prevent Japan from invading China through diplomatic activities, but unfortunately to no avail.
Although the Northwest Army took advantage of the situation to rise at this time, Jiang thought over and over again and did not give up his plan to intervene in the situation in the north.
After consultations with his generals, it was decided to designate the north as the First North China Theater.
Jiang himself served as the commander of the theater, and Jiang Li served as deputy commander.
Yan Xishan was appointed commander of Shanxi Second War Zone.
The Central Second Group Army led by Liu Zhi, Chiang's confidant in Henan, and Wei Lihuang's 14th Group Army also held considerable weight in North China.
While the Japanese army was negotiating peace, it sent troops to press forward step by step.
Song Zheyuan also woke up and hurriedly deployed his defenses, but it was a pity that it was too late.
Precious time slips quietly from your fingers.
The Japanese army arrived at the planned attack location on July 20.
Si Yue Xiangqing decided to first eliminate the squadrons stationed at important stations on the Beining Railway from Tianjin to Peiping.
A few days later, the Japanese army launched an attack on the Chinese garrison in Langfang under the pretext of repairing electric wires.
Since Marco Polo Bridge, the Japanese army has made initial preparations, and the war has completely broken out at this time
