Chapter 31 Disobeying Military Orders

After being stunned for a long time, Dongfang Zhenhua regained his composure and asked cautiously: "Military Commander, do you really want to do this?"

"Do we have a way out?" Liu Tianchu asked again.

Dongfang Zhenhua nodded silently, said nothing, walked out firmly, walked to the door and replied, "Don't worry, the Navy will never let you down."

Liu Tianchu smiled and waved to him, and Dongfang Zhenhua also smiled back. As soon as he turned around, he bumped into the oncoming Lin Babao. Dongfang Zhenhua smiled apologetically and said hello as he walked: "Let's go first!"

Dongfang Zhenhua burned Japanese warships, which was known to the whole army. Lin Babao still wanted to ask for some details, but Dongfang Zhenhua had already walked out. He was too impatient. A dilapidated patrol ship and four torpedo boats were more difficult to survive than the army.

He needs to prepare early.

Seeing Lin Babao come in, Liu Tianchu got straight to the point: "How are the tanks prepared? Can they enter the battlefield?"

"No problem." Lin Babao answered affirmatively.

"Go directly to China Gate." Liu Tianchu ordered briefly.

"What does the military seat mean?" Lin Babao asked puzzledly.

"Japanese troops 33, 9, and 45 attacked Zhonghua Gate, Zhongshan Gate, Guanghua Gate, and Taiping Gate respectively. Our army has been retreating to defend. Now it's time to decide the outcome."

At the beginning of the Nanjing battle, Lin Babao was closely guarded by Xi Zai as a technical talent. He was already exhausted. "Military seat, I will prepare immediately."

"Go!" Liu Tianchu waved his hand with a smile, and he was pleased with the fighting spirit of his subordinates.

After Lin Babao left, Liu Tianchu told Xi Zai to deliver the rocket launcher to Ma Liangjun, dismantle the military factory machinery and transport military supplies to Xiaguan Wharf to cross the river. Then he took Rong Hua to the Nanjing Garrison Headquarters. Liu Xiang recuperated in Hankou.

The military affairs of the Thirteenth Group Army were co-chaired by Tang Shizun and Pan Guohua.

At this time, there was endless debate in the garrison headquarters about whether to defend or withdraw from Nanjing. The Sichuan Army was divided into two factions. The two division commanders of the 21st Army, led by Tang Shizun, advocated a stubborn defense, while the division commanders headed by Pan Guohua and Liu Tianchu advocated retreat.

Tang Shizun had a good relationship with Chiang Kai-shek, he obeyed the Chairman's orders, and he was the deputy commander of the 23rd Army. Of course he resolutely followed the Chairman's orders, but most of the Sichuan army generals were firmly opposed, so they signed a letter

The Ministry of Military and Political Affairs explained the situation in Nanjing, but what is the use of this? The Ministry of Military and Political Affairs did not have an order from the Chairman, but still insisted on Chiang Kai-shek's decision. In order to prevent the Sichuan Army from disobeying orders, it established a political training office in the 23rd Army Group and appointed a special agent office.

Major General Tao Xianglai serves as the director.

Liu Tianchu hated the government's actions, but he could do nothing about it. After coming out of the garrison headquarters, Liu Tianchu informed Liu Xiang of the establishment of the political training office. Liu Xiang said nothing, but told Liu Tianchu not to act recklessly.

Liu Tianchu understood what his uncle meant, but if he followed the Chairman's order, the Sichuan army would be suicidal. Liu Tianchu now regretted it. Was it right or wrong to defend Nanjing? He had protected the people of Nanjing, but now he was riding a tiger.

At the headquarters of the 20th Army, Liu Tianchu called together the generals of each division, explained the current situation in detail, and then glanced at everyone. "What do you think? Should we defend or withdraw?"

Ma Liangjun, Chen Jiaqi and Liu Ling were silent. Feng Huaizhu and Jiang Hui'an said in unison: "We are Weijun's followers, what do you think we should do?"

Liu Tianchu nodded and looked at Ma Liangjun, Chen Jiaqi and Liu Ling. "Where are you?"

The three people hesitated: "Military seat..."

As soon as Chen Jiaqi opened her mouth, she was interrupted by Liu Tianchu. "How many times have I emphasized that please don't call me "Military Commander"? Call me "Tianchu". Everyone here is older than me. Also, let me inform you that junior officers will always call their superiors "sir" and are not allowed to directly address them.

Call out the position." After speaking, Liu Tianchu waved his hand for him to continue.

The reason why Liu Tianchu stressed that army officers were not allowed to use military ranks when going to the front line, and subordinates were not allowed to address their superiors by military rank, was because not long ago a major general staff officer of Pan Wenhua's 144th Division was assassinated by a Japanese spy who had sneaked into the city, and a regiment commander under Liu Ling was sniped by the Japanese on the front line.

A direct hit with the hand….

Ronghua went down to deliver the message, and Chen Jiaqi continued: "Tianchu! We understand what you mean. There is no point in guarding, but after all, we belong to the national army series. If you disobey orders, you will be blamed..."

Ma Liangjun also said: "Han Fuqu is an example. The provincial chairman was sent to a military court by the chairman of the committee, not to mention..."

Ma Liangjun swallowed the next words. Liu Tianchu understood what he wanted to say. Ma Liangjun must have wanted to say it, not to mention Liu Tianchu, who had nothing to do with the committee.

Ma Liangjun and others didn't know that he didn't take the chairman seriously at all. Liu Tianchu wanted to laugh, but the current situation was inappropriate, so he held it back. His eyes scanned everyone's face. "Don't worry, if the committee member blames you,

I am responsible for it alone and it has nothing to do with you. My question is: I have decided to retreat. Do you dare to do so?"

Liu Ling said dissatisfiedly: "You don't believe us? Why ask? We are worried about you!"

"There is nothing to worry about. The general will not accept your orders. Yang Sen has just retreated without authorization in Anhui. There are many people who disobey orders and disobey the national army. What can Bald Jiang do to me? Tens of thousands of Sichuan troops are nothing compared to me!

"

At this moment, Ronghua came in and reported: "Tao Xiang from the Political Training Department, please see me?"

What was he doing here at this time? Everyone looked at Liu Tianchu.

Liu Tianchu didn't even raise his eyes: "The military department is holding a military meeting. Let him wait outside."

"Is this okay? Tao Xiang is a close confidant of the committee and brought Chairman Shang Fang Baojian here. Although it is called the Political Training Department and does not involve military affairs, Deputy Commander Tang listens to him." Jiang Hui'an said worriedly.

"I'm not Tang Shizun? No matter what sword he carries, the 20th Army should not take them seriously from now on. If I'm angry, I'll smash the political training office first."

Everyone looked at each other.

Liu Tianchu ignored the surprised expressions of his subordinates and continued: "Everyone, please listen to the retreat deployment. Two days later at midnight, Liu Ling and Chen Jiaqi's divisions will withdraw from the center line and join Ma Liangjun's division."

Liu Ling and Chen Jiaqi looked at each other in surprise. After a while, Chen Jiaqi said: "Tianchu! Is this okay? The 145th Division is stationed with us on the center line. If we withdraw, the 145th Division will be in danger and we must abandon our colleagues..."

"I know what to do, you do your own thing!" Liu Tianchu continued to say to Ma Liangjun: "Brother Liangjun, the rocket launcher will be sent to your position in two days. After the rocket launcher arrives, Liu Ling and Chen Jiaqi will cooperate with you to attack the 9th Division

36th, 61st and 19th Regiments, if they withdraw towards Jurong, do not pursue them and go to Xiaguan Ferry to cross the river immediately."

"Yes!" The two stood up and replied. Chen Jiaqi hesitated and asked: "The ship was basically destroyed by Tang Shengzhi and you, how do you cross the river?"

"Don't worry, Xiao Zai will prepare a boat to meet you at the riverside."

Liu Tianchu said to Feng Huaizhu again: "Brother Huaizhu! Your division will be the first to cross the river tonight, bringing supplies and ammunition along the way, and occupy the positions along the north bank of the river to assist. Brother Jiang, you and I will retreat in the end. Before the last moment, Wulongshan and the shogunate will

The mountain must not fall into enemy hands."

Jiang Hui'an understood that if the Japanese army went up the river, it would cause heavy casualties to the troops crossing the river. "Don't worry, I will never retreat until the troops completely cross the river."

Ma Liangjun had some questions about Liu Tianchu's deployment. "Tianchu, there are only your brigade and the commander-in-chief's brigade in Nanjing, but there are three Japanese regiments in Nanjing. Will the troops be able to come out during the retreat? How about we turn around to respond?"

Liu Tianchu shook his head resolutely: "Don't look back. It will take a long time for tens of thousands of people to cross the river. We have few ships. If you come back to meet us, it will be delayed. If the Japanese army notices, all our plans will fail. I have the Japanese army in Nanjing."

Method."

At this time, Tao Xiang's shouts and Rong Hua's scoldings came from outside the military department. The arrogant and domineering Tao Xiang was really anxious. Even at the headquarters, no one dared to stop him. Liu Xiang also wanted to give him face. Unexpectedly, he was

It's outside the small military headquarters.

Tao Xiang's shouting became louder and louder. Liu Tianchu became impatient and said to Chu Tianbang: "Go out and tie him up, gagged him and send him back to the Political Training Department."

"No!" Chen Jiaqi stopped him quickly. "Tianchu, you must never do this."

Chu Tianbang looked at Liu Tianchu, wondering what to do?

At this time, Ronghua came in again and reported that Pan Wenhua, Commander Pan, was here and was anxious to see you in the reception room. Liu Tianchu immediately ordered Ronghua to bring Pan Wenhua to the military headquarters.

Soon, Pan Wenhua came in, and Liu Tianchu greeted him and got straight to the point. "The army has arrived just in time. I'm already making arrangements to retreat."

"Ah!" Pan Wenhua stopped and looked at him in surprise.

Liu Tianchu smiled: "Commander Pan is surprised? My body is exchanged for the lives of tens of thousands of Sichuan troops. This is a very cost-effective deal."

Pan Wenhua was also happy. "Brother Liu, Pan admires your courage, but this matter needs to be considered in the long run."
