Chapter 23 Heroes Club

Chen Zikun laughed heartily: "I brought Shuangxi an adjutant. I had a box when I dropped it, but it was a pity that I fell into the river."

Gai Longquan was disappointed: "I'm going to do it alone."

Chen Zikun said: "So what? I'll have everything when I come."

Gai Longquan was stunned for a moment, and his brain, which was anesthetized by alcohol, finally woke up. Who is Chen Zikun? The dignified general of the National Palace and the commander who has a word, can he make his brothers suffer grievances? It seems that the hard days in the mountains have really ended.

"Brothers, the general is back, we should open it again, drink!" Gai Longquan raised the wine bowl, and the minions below followed and screamed, inexplicably excited.

Chen Zikun left Jiangbei for a year and was very unaware of the current situation. Gai Longquan opened up and said that since the guerrillas were disbanded, the Japanese and the traitors and the two devils became kings and dominances. Everyone was chased and wandered around like a betrayal dog. It was not until half a year ago that they gradually gained a foothold in the mountains. Now there are many armed forces in Jiangbei. In addition to the guerrillas system, there are also the 8th Route Army's armed forces, and bandits are everywhere.

"** is here too?" Chen Zikun frowned.

"Yes, what's the name of Daqingshan Detachment? At first, there were only a few dozen people, but now they are getting bigger and bigger. There are hundreds of people entrenched in the Niumazhuang area. It is very lively to recruit soldiers and horses. The leader is Wu Changqing. I heard that he is a tough character, and your nephew Zhao Ziming is also doing well. He has a team of people to be the commander." Gai Longquan talked happily.

"Where is Chen Shou and Zeng Jiao?"

"This kid regards himself as a regular army, with hundreds of people under him, and is active in the Kushuijing area. He is the most powerful. Zeng Jiao works in the Huaijiang River and is doing his best."

After Gai Longquan's introduction, Chen Zikun finally understood a little. The situation in Jiangbei is complicated, with many armed forces, and they are not subordinate to each other, and no one is convinced by each other. No wonder he can't start the situation. However, with his own arrival, these situations will be effectively improved.

He first ordered Chen Shou and Zeng Jiao to be found, and his old subordinates gathered together for a meeting to discuss how to integrate the anti-Japanese armed forces in Jiangbei.

"If you want me to say, you will beat anyone who is disobedient and clean up the ** first. The remaining small fish are no problem." Chen Shou said. His troops had had a conflict with the Eighth Route Army and formed a gang.

Gai Longquan echoed: "What Chen Shou said this time is reasonable. ** That is a mouse. He can't catch up quickly. He can't go anywhere. He has to kill him and the others before he can fight Japan with peace of mind."

Zeng Jiao is a water bandit in the Huai River and is not very concerned about land affairs. He just said that I will do whatever the commander-in-chief arranges.

Chen Zikun said: "I ordered in the name of the commander-in-chief of the Jiangbei Guerrilla Zone that in three days, all the leaders of the anti-Japanese armed forces in Jiangbei will gather at Kushuijing. If the deadline is exceeded, they will be engaged in military law."

Everyone was ready to do a big fight.

...

Niumazhuang, the base of the Eighth Route Army Daqingshan Detachment, Political Commissar Ye hurried into the office of the detachment leader Wu Changqing with a letter. The detachment leader was squatting on the ground to feed chickens. When he saw the political commissar coming in, he stood up and greeted: "Xuefeng, you are here, hurry up and go into the house to drink water."

Ye Xuefeng said, "I won't drink anymore, the matter is urgent." As he said, he patted a letter on the table and said angrily: "The stubborn army is about to stir up friction again. They actually ordered us to go to a meeting. I think this is clearly the Hongmen Banquet!"

Wu Changqing picked up the letter and browsed it, and finally his eyes fixed on the seal of the signature.

"Yin, Commander-in-Chief of Jiangbei Guerrilla Zone, Haha, it's a big deal. By the way, Xuefeng, I heard that you have some connection with this Commander Chen?" Wu Changqing gently put down the letter and poured a bowl of water for Ye Xuefeng.

Ye Xuefeng said: "Yes, I know this General Chen Zikun. It was during the Great Revolution that I was engaged in underground labor movement in Shanghai. One of my superiors was unfortunately arrested by the enemy. He came back from rescue. Later, I saw it once or twice, but it was not very familiar."

Wu Changqing said: "If you are not familiar with it, you can talk about your opinions."

Ye Xuefeng fell into deep thought and reached out to touch his body. The cigarette box was shrunken.

Wu Changqing took out his cigarette pipe and Ye Xuefeng was not polite, so he lit up and said, "Chen Zikun is a warlord from Beiyang. It is logical that he should be a representative of corrupt and reactionary behavior, but he is a member of the Kuomintang and a student studying in the United States. His life is completely Westernized. He is a speculative politician. He will surrender to whoever gets the power. Wu Peifu, the Fengtian department, Zhang Xueliang, and the patriotic general Feng Yuxiang have all served as his backers. Of course, he is now surrendering to Chiang Kai-shek."

"So," Wu Changqing listened very seriously, took out a pen and licked it on his tongue, and made records on his notebook.

"He is good at making money, but he is sympathetic to the people. He once implemented limited people-friendly policies in the ruling areas. However, due to his incomplete revolution, he failed in the end. He was boycotted by our party, but he had a close relationship with our party because of his personal relationship. It is worth mentioning that this person's determination to fight against Japan was still very firm. He invested a large number of troops on the battlefield of Songhu. During the Battle of Defense of Beitai, he even made all his capital. Now he is alone."

Wu Changqing said: "According to what you said, this person is a contradictory complex. Why did he choose this opportunity to come to Jiangbei?"

Ye Xuefeng said: "Some time ago, a scandal broke out about the private peace between Chongqing and Japanese invaders, which was said to be related to Chen. I think he came to Jiangbei and was sent to Chiang Kai-shek for exile."

Wu Changqing stopped writing and said, "Let's analyze it. Chen Zikun's background is complicated and cannot be considered a direct general of the Kuomintang. Chiang Kai-shek has squeezed out his value and now treats him as an abandoned son. Judging from his political wisdom, it should be clear. In this case, we should pull him and bring him to the people's side."

Ye Xuefeng said: "Captain, are you going to the meeting so?"

Wu Changqing nodded: "If you want to go, you must go. On the broad side, Chen Zikun is the commander of the Jiangbei Guerrilla Zone appointed by Chongqing. Although our Eighth Route Army Daqingshan Detachment is not under his direct jurisdiction, it belongs to the same district and always needs to have some contact. From a small perspective, if we don't go, wouldn't we give them a tribute? The stubborn army led by Chen Shou has always wanted to engage in friction and cannot create opportunities for them."

Ye Xuefeng said: "Captain of the Detachment, it's too dangerous. You can't go there. Otherwise, I'll go for you."

Wu Changqing smiled indifferently: "No matter how dangerous it is, it can be dangerous to climb snow-capped mountains and cross the grasslands. Many strong winds and waves have come. I believe Marx would not be so anxious to summon me."

Ye Xuefeng still insisted, Wu Changqing said earnestly: "Xuefeng, I am a military cadre, and there are still people who will take over after sacrifice. You are a political cadre. Without you, the direction of the army will not be accurate. I'll go, this is an order."

But Zhao Ziming opened his mouth and called him uncle.
