C55 Alone at the meeting

"Secret Service?" Jiang Jieshi's interest was piqued, and he muttered: "What do you mean?"

Li Boyang's eyes flashed, he got up and said: "Principal, Huizhou is currently a lonely city, I can imagine that the people in the city are panicking, I heard that Yang Kunru had occupied Huizhou for three years and had extorted from the people's property, had collected a lot of exorbitant taxes, and had given such low treatment to soldiers, there were already complaints from the army. If the Principal trusts me, I will be the messenger and can take down the Huizhou without any bloodshed. "

The more Jiang Jieshi thought about it, the more he felt that this idea was very good. As long as you give me your position and money, then don't worry about Yang Kunru's subordinates who aren't tempted, but when he heard that Li Boyang had volunteered himself, Jiang Jieshi's expression tensed up and rejected him flatly: "No, I would rather exchange a group for a Huizhou than to let you take the risk. Moreover, I don't need you to go, changing someone else is fine."

Li Boyang could hear the concern in Jiang Jieshi's voice, but he knew clearly in his heart, if he took Huizhou, the casualties in the army would definitely not be small. Comparing the two, he was willing to take the risk, and furthermore, he believed in his own judgement.

He expressed determination: "Principal, for the greater picture, the plans the students have should not be taken by others. I am your student, and naturally I have to help you solve your problem. Taking a step back, even if the student was caught by Yang Kunru, he would not dare to do anything to me.

Jiang Jieshi hesitated in his heart, he knew that persuading him to surrender was the best way, but Li Boyang was his proud student, and also the Party's leader, no matter what, he could not bear to let Li Boyang take the risk. In his heart, he was deeply moved by Li Boyang's willingness to take risks for him. Exactly, he couldn't allow his good student to take risks.

Jiang Jieshi shook his head and said, "No, I definitely won't agree to it. To respect you, go and plan your attack on Huizhou. You must have both Freshwater and Xing Ning, not a single Huizhou missing. "

He Yingqin nodded his head, but after that he said hesitantly: "Commander, what Bo Yang said is not without reason, compared to attacking the city head-on, we should be able to take down the Huizhou without any bloodshed."

Jiang Jieshi impatiently waved his hand to interrupt He Yingqin, and his gaze turned cold: "Respected one, Boyang is your student. You should know that the Huizhou is a tiger's den, so no matter who you send out, you cannot avoid danger. I have decided to attack the Huizhou forcefully. "

He Yingqin's lips moved slightly, and did not continue speaking. It was just as Jiang Jieshi had said, Li Boyang was not only his student, but also his beloved general.

Jiang Jieshi asked the troops to adjust before battle and to mobilize before the battle. He ordered the chiefs and their subordinate soldiers to make suggestions on changes in the composition, liaison regulations, improvement in the logistics, replenishment of materials, division of duties, regulation of duties, supplementary recruitment, disposal of prisoners and spoils of war, deployment promotion, rewards and penalties for vacations, in order to better strengthen the building of the force. In addition, to Lao Xun outstanding, honorable reward, and escape from the army of severe punishment, with the army in the heart.

This meeting had been held for two hours. After Jiang Jieshi had settled down the military affairs, he went to look for the Military Advisor, while Li Boyang and the rest of the military officers walked together after the meeting.

"Bo Yang, can Huizhou really be as you said?" He Yingqin and Li Boyang walked side by side, and suddenly asked: "If we send people over, how confident are we?"

Li Boyang looked at the old Company Leader, thought for a moment, and said truthfully: "Brigadier, if I were to go, I have the confidence of reaching the seventh floor."

He Yingqin sighed and said: "Bo Yang, since you joined the army late, I wonder how difficult it is to fight against Huizhou."

Li Boyang indeed did not know much about Huizhou City, so he listened attentively to He Yingqin's explanation on the victory of Huizhou. He Yingqin said: "Actually, before we attacked Huizhou, our army had not fought against Huizhou Yang Kunru twice, the first time was during the twelfth year of the Republic of China, when the Grand Marshal had sent Liu Zhenhuan, Liu Yushan and Hu Shun to besiege Huizhou, and after holding them for more than five months, we were unable to take down Huizhou. The second time was last year.

He Yingqin looked at Li Boyang and sincerely said: "Boyang, you are my student and my old subordinate. I won't hide this from you; A strong city like this, coupled with Yang Kunru's three years of operations, with the current strength of the army, it is unrealistic for them to try to take over the city by force. First, there are many casualties which are unfavorable for Yang Liu, and secondly, if it is a defeated army, I am afraid that the restless Chen Liangming will soon make a comeback, compared to the persuasive method you mentioned, it is the most advantageous strategy for our army. "

He Yingqin looked deeply at Li Boyang, and said: "Bo Yang, precisely because you are my student and my favorite general, I will even send you to dangerous places. This will not only be a responsibility, but also a pressure, I hope you won't blame me."

I am a student of Huangpu, the principal and your students. The students of Huangpu are rushing into the most dangerous and difficult place, and I did not cower under the Freshwater City, but I did not retreat from the battle of cotton lake, and now that I have become the Guild Leader, I cannot say that my life is worth more, so I am afraid of dying. "

He Yingqin took a step forward, heavily held onto Li Boyang's arm, and emotionally said: "I am very pleased that you can think like this."

Li Boyang pursed his lips and looked into He Yingqin's eyes.

Yang Kunru did not have a high starting point, he was born in Green Forest and after the Revolution of 1911, he was recruited by an old Guiyi Warlord, and in these ten years, he had replaced many superiors. After Chen Ming rebelled against the revolution, he was appointed as Sixth Army by Chen Liangming.

The Sixth Army of Yang Kunru controlled four brigades, each brigade had two regiments, each company had two machine guns, each company had six machine guns (heavy and light). In the Chen Army, the number, equipment, composition are relatively good, the total number of officers and soldiers is about 5000.

Although there were dark clouds surrounding the war, the Huizhou was still bustling. Yang Kunru was afraid that the Revolutionary Army would sneak into the city, but he could not close his doors and forbid the business travel to enter and leave the city. With the tax he had brought from the greedy trading, he could not help but send his soldiers to and fro to investigate.

It was early in the morning when a long caravan arrived from the east of Huizhou. Due to the chaotic situation, there were experts and soldiers on the path of robbery everywhere, hence, all the caravans from various places had formed groups to protect themselves. This caravan came from the Plum Lake grains team, and was also a frequent visitor of the Huizhou.

"What are you doing?"

This long caravan was stopped by a group of soldiers. Gatekeeper Commander, who was carrying a boxed cannon, tilted his head and shouted.

"Boss, boss, we are the food team sent by Mei County."

The leader of the caravan was a shopkeeper who was in his forties. He walked out of the caravan with a smile, and bowed as he handed over a toll to Gatekeeper Commander.

Gatekeeper Commander lowered his head to look at the silver in the merchant's hand. He did not hide anything as his expression became slightly better. He looked at the long caravan and asked: "What are these?"

"Food, boss." The shopkeeper patted the burlap sack of the mule beside him, which was tied with a camel's back, and said, "Rice, soybeans."

"Understood!" Gatekeeper Commander impatiently waved his hand and interrupted them, then looked at the people in the convoy. He tilted his head and asked: "Who are these people?"

The shopkeeper smiled and said, "Boss, all of them are shopkeepers and shop assistants."

Gatekeeper Commander was quiet for a bit, then looked around, and said: "Our military commander has said that the enemy is in Guangzhou, and will be entering the Huizhou soon. Men, come here, I will search, anything suspicious will be caught by me."

As soon as he said that, the shopkeeper became anxious. The shopkeeper hurriedly went up and took out a piece of paper from his pocket, begging, "Boss, our caravan is full of businessmen, and you told the bosses to go and capture them. In the future, no one from our caravan will enter, and we will honor you for that."

Just as the shopkeeper was relieved, Gatekeeper Commander's face changed and he shouted, "Search this for me."

The soldiers rushed into the caravan like wolves and tigers, catching all the suspicious people. For a moment, the entire caravan was in chaos, but under the deterrence of the soldiers' guns, no one dared to resist.

"Captain, what should we do?" In the middle of the carriage, a lean man leaned on the window and peeked outside. A few soldiers walked towards the carriage, he reached out to touch the floral organ beneath the seat, he looked nervous and said to the tall youth who was calm: "There are enemies coming."

Li Boyang looked at him and calmly said, "What are you afraid of? Don't panic."

The lean man wiped the sweat off his forehead. He wasn't afraid of what would happen to himself, but the Guild Leader's words of consolation were unavoidable. If he caught this enemy, it would be unimaginable.

Two tall and short search soldiers arrived in front of the carriage that Li Boyang was sitting in. One of the soldiers raised his gun and pointed it at the carriage while the other opened the curtain with his rifle and cursed, "Don't f * cking hide inside, get your father out!"

Just as the soldier was cursing, the curtains of the carriage was opened, and a valiant Young people stuck his head out. The soldier and Young people looked at each other, and Young people's calm eyes were shining with a threatening light.

"Call your officer."

The one who came out was precisely Li Boyang. He knew that he might not be able to avoid this kind of investigation. Rather than letting the enemy soldiers find him out, it would be better to go the other way and come out in the proper way.

The two soldiers looked at each other, and being looked at by Young people, they could not help but stand at attention. When Li Boyang was talking, the soldier who was looking at him could not help but raise his hand freely.

Although they were just the lowest level of soldiers, they were still discerning people. They knew that this Young people in front of them was not a simple person, they both looked at each other, leaving behind one person to guard here while the other ran over to report.

Very quickly, a burst of clamor sounded out, and enemy soldiers carrying rifles rushed over from all directions. Hearing the report from the soldiers, Gatekeeper Commander did not dare delay and rushed over.

"May I ask who you are?" When Gatekeeper Commander came over to take a look, he knew that this majestic Young people in front of him was out of the ordinary. Not to mention the aura he was emitting, just by seeing himself, a group of vicious soldiers, not changing his expression or calmness, Gatekeeper Commander did not dare to be disrespectful, so he used the word "please".

Li Boyang smiled and asked Gatekeeper Commander: "Which brigade are you from?"

However, he thought that it was not a secret which part of the clan he belonged to, so he said: "Sixth Army First Brigade two groups two groups two groups Head, who are you?"

Li Boyang understood in his heart, he looked at Gatekeeper Commander and said: "Luo Fengxiang and I are old friends, your status is low, it would be better if he personally came to see me."

Gatekeeper Commander was shocked. This young man's tone was not small, he probed: "This humble one's status is low, but you didn't tell me who you were. How can I report to Brigadier?"

Li Boyang muttered to himself, his brain working extremely quickly, the enemy was the Brigadier's Luo Fengxiang, it was fine, but Luo Fengxiang was the Chief of Staff, he would have long thought of an escape, and now that he was here, he did not believe that he would not be able to see him, so he said: "Tell him, I am the third leader of the Huang Po Army, under the orders of Chief of Staff Luo."

Guild Leader? garrison commander knew about the Huang Po Army, and for the past three years, he had been beaten up by Huang Po's student army, causing him to lose his head, he was a shrewd man, and understood the severity of the matter, he did not dare be careless, and waved for the caravan to enter the city, then reported back to the city.

Returning to the city to report was naturally not to report to Yang Kunru, the matter of checking up on the Huizhou was extremely important, if not for Luo Fengxiang's trusted aides, why would it be his turn to guard the door?

Luo Fengxiang had not had a good time, after knowing that the Whampoa Academy Army had defeated Lin Hu in cotton lake, he had been thinking of a way out. The East Expeditionary Force had fought in a beautiful roundabout way, avoiding the Huizhou straight to the center of the ocean, avoiding real attacks and false attacks, and when the news of Xing Ning being captured by the East Expeditionary Force reached him, he knew that the Huizhou was in a precarious situation.

Different from the loyal Chen Ming, Yang Kunru, who was clear about the situation in Guangdong, he knew that Chen Lianming was no longer in a good situation. It was unwise to fight to the death against the Huizhou, and considering his future life, surrendering to the Guangzhou government was a wise decision, but unfortunately, there was no contact from the Revolutionary Army side, which made him extremely anxious.

That morning, while he was still sleeping, he heard his aide-de-camp knock on the door.

"Chief of Staff, please wake up."

Luo Fengxiang was woken up early in the morning, he scolded angrily: "Scram, scram."

The aide-de-camp was scared out of his wits by the scolding, but he still forced himself to knock on the door and called out, "Chief of staff, something big has happened."

Originally, Luo Fengxiang wanted to go back to sleep, but when he heard the aide claim that something important had happened, he immediately became clear-headed. Adjutant Liu had followed him for many years and knew of his temperament, so he would definitely not bother him with something insignificant early in the morning.

The assistant looked around and spoke to Luo Fengxiang in a low voice: "Chief of staff, someone from Revolutionary Army has arrived."

Hearing that, Luo Fengxiang lost all sleepiness, his eyes lit up, but his heart was filled with suspicions, afraid that Yang Kunru was trying to probe him out.
