Chapter 186: Down the river

Chapter 186 Questioning the River
In late November 1932, a war broke out between the Southwest United Autonomous Government and the Nanjing National Government. {Devouring Novel Net}
Unlike previous civil wars, in the face of this war, almost all the newspapers remained silent, and even some literati literati who usually criticized Jiangshan for commenting on current events stopped their pens.
Few people see this war as a new round of civil war, but many people see this war as a war of Chinese transition.
After years of secession by the North and the South, neither the Nanjing National Government, which had a lot of political maladies and warlord divisions, or the Southwest United Government, which has long dominated the Southwest and assumed a strong country as its own responsibility, are not comparable to previous warlords.
It can be said that this war, no matter who wins or loses, will take the Chinese nation to another path, a path of vigorous development.
Many enlightened people have seen that only a unified China is in the interests of the entire nation. It is best for the southwest to unify the country. Reform is a radical change. Advancing absolute national innovation with absolute scientific and technological strength will bring the Chinese nation in the shortest time. Push to a new height. If it is the Nanjing Kuomintang victory, then the Kuomintang, which is half rich in the southwest, will go one step further and go further on the road to building China.
Incidentally, both the Kuomintang and the southwest government announced in unison that the war will do their best to avoid mass killings of civilians, and at the same time, the army has also been given an iron order that strictly prohibits disciplinary violations. These have little impact on the Southwest People's Army, but they have a great impact on the middle and lower ranks of the Kuomintang, which used to be a tragedy. At least, war will not affect hundreds of millions of innocent people.
The Southwest People's Army first launched a military offensive.
The southeast group army was jointly commanded by Tao Qian and Zhu Gesheng, and formed an offensive cluster with the 75th Division. It launched a fierce attack on the Kuomintang Gu Zhu's part from the direction of Fujian, Zhejiang and Guangxi, and the front line pointed directly at Fuzhou and Nanchang.
Gu Zhu fought fiercely with the 300,000-strong army that led Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Fujian, and Tao Qian's Southeast Army. After graduating from the sixth period of Baoding Military Academy, he used to be an instructor and battalion commander of the Huangpu Military Academy, a commander of the First Army of the National Army, and a famous general known as the "master of talents". His opponent this time is an unknown Tao. Qian, Zhuge Sheng. Compared with him, Tao Qian and others are low-key and less prominent, but they are the rare and stable intellectuals in the southwest.
The commander of the Central China Army is a little special. It is not the southwestern generals, but Cai Xuan, the principal of the Huaxia Military Academy, is the commander in chief of the Central China Army. Although doomed for many years, Cai Yan has already stated that he will no longer participate in the warlord melee, but after Zhang Shusheng personally came to the door to invite him, he finally let go of all considerations and was willing to contribute to this battle of national transition. This famous Chen Xia's 耆 耆 old man finally struck the horse once again and boarded the 峥嵘 Army Brigade.
Even though Cai Yan has held the post of headmaster of the Huaxia Military Academy for many years, his cultivation and cultivation has already reached the extreme, but when he returned to the battlefield, he was just like the veterans who had just been restored to active service. The pharaoh veteran is right in his prime, and at this time it is his ambition to take back the years he had missed from the war, one by one in the future.
The Central China Army consists of Cai Huan as its commander, and the 78th Division constitutes the Central China Military Cluster (Southwest Army's new designation: the establishment of the seventh division. The remaining divisions are based on 11 and are numbered between 11-80. Among them In addition to the seven most elite divisions, the double-numbered number is the old standing garrison division and the more elite division in the new army.), Launched a military offensive against Chen Tuanyuan. Chen Tiaoyuan's military cluster mainly gathers military forces in places like Hunan and Jiangxi, and the entire large military cluster is about 250,000 people.
Almost at the same time as the Southeast Army Group launched its attack, the Central China Army Group also set off from Guiguang to attack the two lakes, marching toward Changsha and Wuhan.
The Southwest Group Army was commanded by Wu Tiejun as the group army, and formed a military cluster with the 71st Division. The army set off from the north of Sichuan and advanced to Shaanxi via Hanzhong. The targets were directed at Shaanxi and Shanxi provinces. As in the other two directions, the Southwest Army will encounter the Kuomintang Northwest Corps, consisting of Yang Hucheng and Northwest Markov, in Shaanxi.
The Tianjin-Langfang-Daxing Airport garrison in the Tianjin-Beijing battlefield formed the Tianjin-Beijing cluster. After maritime resupply, they formed a military confrontation with the Kuomintang Chen Cheng group army. Although the fighting was not delayed, the four Southwest Divisions faced more than ten The battle of 10,000 seems to start sooner or later.
According to the Northwest Expedition Plan formulated by the Supreme Staff of the Southwest People's Army for many years, at the same time as the North Expeditionary military offensive, the Southwest will also have military actions to defend the Southwestern mainland.
Among them, the First Guards Division was assisted by other new divisions mainly composed of veterans and elite reserve forces. As these new divisions are basically the most loyal veterans, officers are transferred directly from the original main forces to loyalty. The military deputy without any problems served as the chief of the new editor. In this way, under the huge intelligence monitoring in the southwest, there was no worries.
For example, the original deputy head of the Weiyang division was reassigned to the new editor, and the former head and deputy head of the main division may be reassigned directly to the new editor. After a large-scale job transfer, more than 20 newly-organized divisions in Southwest China did not have the problem of no officers available and decreased loyalty. Instead, they placed a large number of long-term deputies in the main force and had deep military command capabilities. Outstanding officer. After all, a large number of outstanding military officers graduate from major military academies in the southwest each year. According to the previous establishment of the Southwest Army, a large number of outstanding military graduates from the Huaxia military academy can only serve as a deputy. The advent of military expansion has solved such a large army of officers. The issue of promotion has entwined the army.
During the military expedition to the Northern Expedition, Zhang Shusheng did not lighten his defense against the surrounding military forces. For example, in the area of ​​Hainan, Hong Kong, and Guangdong, the southwestern elderly He Zhiguang and the former Guangdong warlord Chen Shaokuan served as commanders and deputy commanders and were responsible for the security in the southeast during the war. Cheng and Chongqing are in charge of Zheng Zhinan (the first phase of the Chinese Army Military Academy for the Elderly League) and Ye Long (a student of Jiang Baili and a graduate of Baoding Army Officer School). The security of the two provinces of Yunnan and Guangxi is under the leadership of Chu Shiwen.
As the focus of defense, Chu Shiwen commanded troops of up to several divisions stationed on the China-Vietnam border and the China-Myanmar border, alerting the British and French armies to guarding against surprise attacks that the two armies might launch from behind during the Northern Expedition.
In order for the entire Northern Expedition to proceed smoothly, in addition to military actions, logistics is also a major concern. After the Southwest People's Army General Logistics Department mobilized nearly 200,000 civilians to participate, it was only in three directions that it could conditionally complete the supply of three offensive clusters. It can be said that this northern expedition can proceed smoothly, and these migrant workers who actively sign up for the logistics detachment are inseparable. This is still good transportation conditions in the southwest, with considerable scale of railway and highway coverage, and a high degree of motorization. Materials can be pulled directly to the war zone, and then by the civilians and logistics officers and men (from The new editor is selected and adjusted) to send materials to the front line. If it is pushed by shoulders or tricycles, this mobilization number is estimated to reach hundreds of thousands to ensure daily combat supplies in three directions.
At the beginning of the war, the eyes of almost all Chinese in the world were attracted to the Northern Expedition. Everyone was thinking about the same question: who wins and who loses, and how long the war will last.
However, the progress of the war made everyone stunned, and even the group of people who had expected it had stunned their chins.
At the beginning of the war, the Southwest Army took full force.
The clusters in all three directions were supported by the powerful southwest air forces, and the southeast and central China directions were supported by the unique armored forces of the southwest.
At the beginning of the war, the Kuomintang's air forces in all three directions were blown up on the run-down airports, not to mention the front-line airports, and even the defensive airfields in Nanjing were visited by carrier-based planes. Was easily plowed again. In three directions, the southwest has concentrated more than 500 first, second and third generation aircraft including J-1 fighters and H-1 bombers. After the devastating attack on the Kuomintang Air Force, it began to focus on bombing and removal. Artillery positions.
Although the Southwest did not launch an indiscriminate bombing of any city or the use of incendiary weapons of mass destruction, according to the established plan, it also did not arbitrarily abandon air strikes. Large-scale air strikes in cooperation with the offensive forces are being carried out in three directions.
With the help of terrain, the performance of armored troops in this Northern Expedition was simply shocking.
The Southeast Group Army is responsible for attacking the Kuomintang's most important ruling area and facing the most elite corps. The light frog-type amphibious armored vehicles and the tiger-type 2 light tanks equipped by the first and fifth divisions constitute the armor. The brigade carried out lightning assault operations of armored units. In the face of not even even flat artillery, but only a small number of old iron armored combat vehicles, the armored brigade broke through the two Kuomintang defense lines on the same day, and cooperated with aircraft and armored forces. Gu Zhutong opened a line of defense that claimed to be able to defend the Southwest Army for three to five months. Gu Zhutong's two front-line divisions were not even able to withdraw in the trenches, and were surrounded by the division of the Southeast Group with the cooperation of aircraft and armored brigades.
Chiang Kai-shek was shocked and urgently called Gu Zhutong to organize a second stronger line of defense in front of the Fuzhou-Nanchang city line.
However, this failure is only the beginning.
Then, the defeated telegram flew to Nanjing like a snowflake. Chairman Jiang was furious from the beginning of the day. When he saw the telegram, he thought subconsciously, where was this time broken by the Southwest Army?
On December 5, 1932, the Northern Expedition just started for two weeks. Following the fall of Xiamen and Putian, Fuzhou became the first big city to be won by the Southwest Army. It was taken by the Southwest Army in just two weeks and shocked all of them. ' Party-members'. In the face of the siege army and the southwest army landing from the sea behind the defense line, nearly 100,000 Fuzhou battlefields, including three central divisions, chose to surrender, and it was this time that the surrender set an example for the Kuomintang troops in other directions. The incident of surrender one after another.
On December 10, 1932, after the loss of Yongzhou Hengyang, Changsha finally did not reach the end. After half a month of fighting, it lost at the end of December. Chen Tiaoyuan was unfavorable in the First World War. After retreating to the lower part of Wuhan City, he still could not resist the strong offensive of the Southwest Army. Due to the lack of combat determination, the defensive forces of the garrison were emerging endlessly. During the multi-point attack, there was almost no resistance. Often, it was a point that was breached, and then it was detoured, breaking down another section of defense. Finally retreated to the north side of the Yangtze River, but still could not stop the Central China Army from crossing the river sooner or later.
On December 15, 1932, the Southwest Army fought fiercely on the 'Xibao Defense Line', 50 kilometers away from Xi'an. Facing this line of defense aimed at arching both Xi'an and Baoji, the Southwest Army used the superior air force to support it. , Launched an offensive against the coalition forces of Yang Hucheng and the Majia of the Northwest. Before the battle began, Ma Bufang from the northwest ordered three cavalry divisions to impact the Southwest Army. At the high rate of fire of hundreds of ripper heavy machine guns, a shocking thing happened.
This cavalry is not an ordinary cavalry. They are mainly composed of the Anthony. Although this nation is good as a whole, under the deliberate conspiracy of the Ma family who ruled the northwest for decades, this cavalry unit is mainly composed of some ideological will and politics. The non-mainstream line of officers and soldiers, whose consciousness is not quite the same as that of the Huaxia nation, holds a natural hostility towards the Hans, and on the northwestern land, it has imposed brutal rule and repression against people of all ethnic groups for a long time.
However, in this battle of the "Saibao Line", the cavalry was severely wounded and wounded. The cavalry of the three divisions were wiped out, and none of them could rush to the forward position simply constructed by the Southwest Army. The corpse mountains and blood sea are shocking.
Yang Hucheng led the department into defensive state. However, less than a week later, Jiang Jieshi, who had just received the Northwest Critical Electricity, actually received an incredible telegram.
"Yang Hucheng surrendered and Ma Bufang was captured by his intelligence.
This battle was the smoothest battle conducted by the Three Route Army. In addition to the Northwest Majia Army that had just started to lose, the loss of Yang Hucheng was minimal. Through some political means, after controlling several other divisions who intended to resist, the Southwest Army Was put on the line of defense, and launched a final annihilation battle against other Northwest troops who did not surrender. By late December, the entire Shaanxi had no resistance. Although the Southwest Army did not attack the northwest, it turned its muzzle and launched a military operation against Yan Xishan in Shanxi.
Unlike half of China, where gunfire and gunfire sounded loud, the Tianjin-Beijing battlefield has always been confrontational.
Different from other aspects, on the battlefield of Tianjin and Beijing, the chairman of the Chen Cheng military group was ordered to attack. However, it was these troops who had just participated in the Anti-Japanese War that were slow in their movements, and two of the radical division commanders were ‘house arrested’ on the grounds that Chen Cheng discussed the war.
On the one hand, the order of Nanjing is false, and on the other hand, Chen Cheng is also considering how to deal with it. In contradiction, he was not willing to surrender directly to the Southwest like Yang Hucheng and Yu Xuezhong on the Fuzhou battlefield, but he was even more reluctant to take offensive actions against the Southwest Army on the Tianjin battlefield.
Chen Cheng's heart is very complicated. It can be said that as a deeply involved in the Tianjin-Beijing battlefield, besides Zhang Xueliang, the entire China knows the Southwest Army best and has the most contacts.
However, his contradiction will inevitably lead to Nanjing dissatisfaction. Sure enough, in mid-December, a telegram notified Jinjing ’s troops. Chen Cheng was promoted to deputy director of the military. Commander, led troops in the Tianjin-Beijing battlefield to take military action against the Southwest Army. To appease Chen Cheng, accompanied by Tang Enbo was a senior general, Fu Zuoyi.
"Resignation, this time you have done a little too much. As a senior general, it is already a big crime to disobey. But you should not have too much psychological burden. The chairperson will take care of you after all."
Looking at this Chen Chengshi who is the same age as himself, but is already a well-known anti-Japanese general, Fu Zuoyi feels a little complicated, his failures, and the event of surrender to himself. For his senior general at this level, the pressure is stressful. Great.
He was not even sure if Chen Cheng, who had had a lot of contact with the Southwest Army, was also planning to surrender.
Chen Cheng shook his head with a bitter smile and reached out and pointed the direction of Tianjin at will. "Does General Fu also think that Chen Cheng is disloyal to the party and state and is ready to surrender at any time?"
"Where does this come from? I don't know how to resign. I think Tianjin ’s excellent performance in the battlefield is actually a party leader. Naturally, it is loyal to the party state." Fu Zuoyi smiled, but it was negative, although he did There is such a speculation. Imagine that the important people in Nanjing probably did the same.
"General Fu, this situation is a bit chaotic." Chen Cheng shook his head with a bitter smile, which party leader and confidant, these are all passing away. He was very clear in his heart.
In order to prevent his mutiny, Tang Enbo didn't come to Peiping alone. Behind him, there were two main divisions and five divisions. The chairman was determined to put the Southwest Army in the Tianjin-Beijing theater to death. Of course, the disobedient self will also be 'promoted away'.
"The situation is a bit chaotic. You have to resign. You also understand people. The news of defeat in various places keeps coming. The chairman is just trying to concentrate the troops to resolve the Southwest Army in Tianjin as soon as possible. This 100,000 army can go south. I have different levels of combat effectiveness, not to mention that compared with their main force in the Southwest, it is not necessarily a victory over their new editor. Besides, the Southwest has an absolutely superior air force, Armored forces, artillery, the main attacking forces in three directions, and even the individual equipment were sufficient to suppress us. "Fu Zuoyi took out a cigarette, handed it to Chen Cheng, continued," " If the surpassing iron blood troops can go south, the battle will be smoother. "
Chen Cheng nodded. Of course, as a high-ranking general, he certainly knew the combat effectiveness. These anti-Japanese troops were okay. After the blood war against Japan, the combat effectiveness and will to fight were far stronger than other troops. The Southwest Army is far superior in terms of equipment, soldier quality, and even the will to fight. In this way, how can the chairman not be in a hurry.
"I don't know what mission General Fu is shouldering this time?"
"Oh, in addition to condolences and resigns you, which is responsible for the fighting of several divisions, after the Yang Hucheng incident, the chairman is not assured that he is the only one to let him assist Tang Enlai." Fu Zuoyi smiled. The chairman is not allowed Undoubtedly, the Shaanxi Mutiny and Fuzhou surrender incidents have caused more surrender incidents of large and small troops, making him have to strengthen control of the troops.
Chen Cheng stopped suddenly, looked at Fu Zuoyi, and said seriously, "Actually, I am against this war. These anti-Japanese troops are very valuable. I ca n’t see them killing each other. General Fu also wants Think twice. "
He didn't say much. Based on his knowledge of Southwest China, he believes that there will soon be political workers to persuade and rebel against the two. The reason why he has not wavered, he neither accepts the promise of money, nor is he moved by the national justice. But to serve the party state, the cultivation of the chairman of the service.
But he firmly believes that, among the important members of the party-state, it is difficult to find a person who can see the situation clearly like himself, of course, maybe the Shaoshuai Zhang in the Northeast is the same.
In today's China, compared with the Southwest United Government, the Nanjing National Government has shown a huge backwardness in all aspects. In terms of military, science and technology, politics, economy, education, etc., they are almost backward in all aspects. Judging from the officers and soldiers of the Southwest Army he has contacted, whether it is a grass-roots general like Chen Jun or a small soldier, it can give people and officers and men a complete feeling.
Their mental outlook, their political consciousness, and their thinking are not comparable to those of officers and soldiers.
To give the simplest example, Chen Cheng once asked an injured soldier of the Southwest Army and asked him why he was fighting. As a result, this soldier with a head like a mule was struggling and took out a photo, pointing at the one above. The young woman holding her child said, "To protect her, let the little ones live a good life in the future."
He also clearly remembered that he was only condolences to the battlefield hospital as an ordinary KMT officer, and the other party did not know that he was Chen Cheng.
Seeing that he shook his head, the soldier thought he didn't believe him, and then added, "Sir, don't laugh at me, I have no culture, but I'm telling the truth. I can't speak, but the political commissar taught us that what we give is Wife and children are living a good life, and they are also trying to make tens of millions of Chinese people have a good life. "
"Aren't you afraid of sacrifice?"
"It's not false to say, but the squad leader said, why are you afraid of dying to come to the army? It's better to hold the children at home. Now that you are here, you should go up."
"If this is a leader's idea, how amazing it should be, but it has been instilled in the soldiers." Chen Cheng remembers his emotions at the time.
Fu Zuoyi reached out and shook hands with Chen Cheng. The military vehicle in the distance has been waiting for a long time. A special plane will take Chen Cheng to Nanjing. As to whether he will be under house arrest or put on the shelf after arriving in Nanjing, it depends on how he talks with the chairman. Already.
However, from the deepest part of his heart, Fu Zuoyi is very pessimistic about Chen Cheng's future, especially in such a comprehensive failure, perhaps, it is good to not be excused into prison.
In late December 1932, Tang Enbo and Fu Zuoyi formally took over the Tianjin-Beijing theater. After a short training session, after replacing several 'problematic' divisions, Tang Enbo ordered an attack on the squadrons in Tianjin-Beijing.
The Southwest Army relied on Tianjin, Langfang, and Daxing Airports to fight fiercely against hundreds of thousands of troops.
At the same time, the Southwest aircraft carrier task force escorted a large number of supplies and landed in Tianjin. On the same day, carrier-based aircraft attacked and cooperated with fighters at Daxing Airport to launch a violent air attack on the Daxing defense circle.
The two anti-Japanese forces finally inevitably collided together. At this time, there was no right or wrong. The Southwest and Nanjing National Governments must determine the victory through a comprehensive war. The Tianjin-Beijing battlefield was one of the key battlefields. It is bound to become an important target for competition. Fortunately, neither side has carried out large-scale destruction of the city, and more is engaged in large-scale field operations.
On January 1, 1933, Chiang Kai-shek's electricity ordered Zhang Xueliang, ordered Zhang Xueliang to leave a ‘defensive line of defense’ with sufficient strength, and then returned to Jinjing to inject a support army into the glued battlefield.
However, Chiang Kai-shek's electric order was actually rejected by Zhang Xueliang himself, and changed the flag for the second time in January 1932, leaving the Kuomintang, resolutely playing the banner of the Southwest Army's Golden Dragon Banner, and telegraphing Southwest to send troops to reorganize the Northeast Army at an early date.
On that day, Ning Jin's defense line spreading over several places was in jubilation, and it was full of cheers for the Northeast Army, which had long been full of longing in the southwest. You know, the Northeast Army did not yield to the Kuomintang for a long time, and most generals at all levels were still loyal. Zhang Xueliang had a lot of feelings for the Southwest Army who strongly supported the Northeast Army ’s anti-Japanese war, but lacked loyalty to Nanjing. Although the change of flag was very sudden, it was supported by the Northeast officers and men.
Zhang Xueliang said in the notice of changing flags: "... To build a strong China with equality, freedom, prosperity, integrity, and justice, not to succumb to the rule of the decaying regime, to change flags and obey southwest orders. Wang Zhu public……"
As soon as the electricity was released, the world was shocked. Before the Nanjing National Government had time to respond, Zhang Shusheng, the highest leader of the Southwest, personally followed the world and ordered Zhang Xueliang to be the commander-in-chief of the Northwest Anti-Japanese War of the Southwest Army and appointed Huo Weiguo as the deputy commander of the Northeast Anti-Japanese War. He also expressed his willingness to treat the 200,000 Northeast Army in good faith and take care of issues such as pensions and supplies for the Northeast Army.
At the same time, Southwest announced that it would increase its supply of troops to the Northeast Army. For Zhang Xueliang's request for reorganization, it reverted to ‘wartime special, and can be reorganized later.’
This can also be regarded as an explanation for the Northeast Army. It did not hit the snake along the stick and was anxious to point the finger at the Northeast Army. Instead, it gave Zhang Xueliang full command privileges, but assisted Huo Weiguo in coordinating the anti-Japanese war.
The northeast mutiny, the blow to the Nanjing National Government was like knocking down a mountain and then collapsing several other mountains. The severe chain reaction forced Jiang Jieshi to issue a repellent in person.
In the message, Chairman Jiang reprimanded Zhang Xueliang for not complying with the Central Committee, and for a long time with Southwest China, he would be severely punished for retrograde rebellion.
The second Northeast China flag change event was extremely extensive and it seemed to have set a banner for other troops.
On January 15th, 1933, nearly half a month after the Southwest Army siege, the treacherous Yan Xishan finally became the second obedient predator after the Northeast changed its name. Yan Xishan announced the arrest of two loyalists loyal to Nanjing in Taiyuan, while accepting the reorganization of the Southwest Army.
Correspondingly, the Southwest announced the appointment of Yan Xishan as the governor of Shanxi Province. At the same time, after the Southwest Army completed the screening of the Shanxi army and cleared out a group of people and enemies, the Shanxi army was temporarily placed in the queue and waiting for the battle. After unified reorganization.
After Shanxi, after Chen Tiaoyuan's Ministry completely defeated Hubei, Hunan province announced its joining the Southwest United Government.
On February 1, 1933, Fujian and Jiangxi provinces announced their departure from the Nanjing National Government, and at the same time announced that they would join the government of the Southwest United Government on the grounds that ‘the opinion of the public must not be violated and should conform to the people ’s hearts’.
Southwest also issued an announcement at the same time, welcoming these devoted provinces, and stated that in the future government reorganization, the former KMT officials at all levels will be given the same treatment assessment opportunities. As long as the strict assessment is passed, the Southwest will not exclude KMT officials from joining the new government. .
February 1933 was a very lively month. On the entire Northern Expedition battlefield, a total of 15 division commanders took their troops to the southwest, including Xu Yongchang, deputy commander of the Central China Theater, and Xue Yue, commander of the 15th Army in the Southeast Zhejiang Theater. Another Hubei Province announced its entry into the Southwest United Autonomous Government.
In March 1933, Han Fuqu and Song Zheyuan jointly led the army against Chiang Kai-shek, and suddenly turned their guns at Tang Enbo. The two men had a total of eight divisions and became the Southwest Army. Zhang Zizhong, who has a straightforward personality and righteousness, even scolded Tang Enbo, announcing that the Kuomintang has gone, let him see the situation, and end the civil war as soon as possible.
After Han Fuqu ’s two were anti-KMT, the situation in the Tianjin-Beijing battlefield began to turn sharply, and even Zhang Xueliang in the northeast sent four divisions to send troops south to support the Beijing-Beijing battlefield.
On March 15, 1933, Fu Zuoyi, who had been in communication with the Southwest for a long time, was finally moved by the national righteousness. He led the army to surrender, and surprisingly captured the captive Tang Enbo and nearly 100 people who hated the party state in the Southwest. After the command center was terminated, The battlefield situation reversed greatly, and more than 100,000 people eventually surrendered.
After the battle between Tianjin and Beijing, Fu Zuoyi stayed in Tianjin, Song Zheyuan led his ministry to Hebei, and Han Fuqu returned to Shandong to announce the change of Shandong. After completing the preparations and relieving the worries, Chen Jun led four divisions with nearly 60,000 elite troops to leave Tianjin and began to attack south along the Jinpu line.
At the same time, under the command of Tao Qian, the Southwest Army became the fastest progressing party. As early as March, it won Hangzhou and the soldiers approached the beach.
In the face of the Southwest Army, which is close at hand, the Kuomintang has gathered nearly 300,000 troops and built the Shanghai-Shanghai defense line known as an iron barrel.
On March 20, 1933, a Southwest Army landed in Shanghai by boat, landed from the Yangtze River estuary, and launched a fierce assault on the flanks of the Japanese Shanghai-Shanghai defense line along Baoshan. At the same time, the main force of the Southwest Army launched an onslaught from the front. With the cooperation of aircraft and tanks, the front line was broken up in a southeastern cluster of eight divisions, which took a week to completely resolve the battle. As a result of the fighting, most of them surrendered, and most of the others fled back to their hometowns. Not many were actually killed or injured.
At the same time, the southwestern cluster in charge of Wu Tiejun set off from Shanxi and took Henan for half a month, and it was almost parallel with Chen Jun ’s Tianjin-Jingjing Corps. After passing Anhui, they went straight to Nanjing.
Compared with the Southeastern Army, the Southwest Army, and the Tianjin-Beijing Army, although the Central China Army is not large in number and has only six divisions, the Southwest Army is elite and well-equipped. It also breaks through quickly in the face of 200,000 siege. In the case of heavy prisoners, many divisions were defeated. When the other three-way army entered Nanjing, the Central China cluster also moved in the direction of Hefei toward Nanjing.
The four-way army supplemented a huge offensive force composed of more than 30 Southwest Divisions. After joining some units led by the devoted enlightened division, the entire offensive force reached forty divisions. Forty-six divisions of the Southwest Armed Forces finally encountered the Kuomintang's last and most stubborn resistance near Nanjing.
After integrating the troops that had retreated to Nanjing, the Kuomintang concentrated its troops of more than 50 divisions. Chiang Kai-shek himself served as the commander of the theater to defend the southwestern offensive. Although there are many people in the same group, the southwest has taken the elite route, and its combat power is extraordinary, especially the air support provided by the aircraft carrier fleet.
On March 30, 1933, five months after the Northern Expedition, the Southwest and Nanjing finally launched a decisive battle near Nanjing. Southwest powers the Nanjing government to advise the other party that the situation is over, and surrendering arms is the only way out. Nanjing said it would fight to the end.
This will be a battle. Unlike the previous battles, most of them were settled by the Southwest Army ’s powerful breakthrough, and the battle was likely to be severely fatal. Just when Zhang Shusheng was about to put up with a total offensive order, Nanjing suddenly heard news of mutiny.
The 29th Army Captain General Lin Linge led the army to surround the Presidential Palace and the dignitaries' residences overnight. In an unexpected way, he wiped out almost the entire KMT military and political ranks.
Under the "right counsel" of General Lunge, Chiang Kai-shek issued a report to the National Telecommunications Corporation, saying that the civil war must end as soon as possible, and ordered that weapons near Nanjing be surrendered and surrender to the southwest.
Seeing the bad situation, Chiang Kai-shek chose to accept the soldiers at the last moment, and announced that he would go down. After all, as long as he is not a crazy person, he can see that the trend of the 'party state' is now gone.
On April 1, 1933, the Southwest People's Army entered Nanjing and dropped the Kuomintang Qingtianbairi flag flying above the presidential palace. This move officially declared the end of the Nanjing National Government's rule on the Chinese land.
On the same day, Zhang Shusheng published the "Report to All Nationals" in the southwest, and delivered an important message to both home and abroad through a radio speech.
"... In the 5,000 years of civilization, countless historical facts have proved that the Chinese nation is an extraordinary, indomitable, singable and great nation that has created many miracles. However, for hundreds of years, Division, civil strife are all obstacles to the rise and rejuvenation of the nation ... From today on, the Chinese nation will embark on a fast, sustainable and healthy development path. I assure all the people, I assure the forty million people, and I Hundreds of millions of compatriots at home and abroad have pledged that Southwest China will adhere to its usual style, resolve the pain of war as soon as possible, and form a new national people's government to lay a solid foundation for the rapid development of the economy and the improvement of people's livelihood.
Southwest China will adhere to the policy of establishing a country based on science and technology, strengthening the country by economy, building the country by the rule of law, rejuvenating the country by education, and spreading the country by etiquette.

When I saw a brother saying that he only subscribed to the book of a certain god, Xiaoyu would just look at piracy. At that time, the smile was inexplicable. Although the great had a good book, Xiaoyu was also writing it seriously. Not much to say, Xiaoyu Tears begged everyone to subscribe for support. At my update rate, less than 3 yuan a month, it is really very small. The income of Xiaoyu is not much better than that of migrant workers. Make money with bricks. For three yuan, the price of a few cigarettes for brothers, the price of one or two cucumbers, and the price of two ice cream bars, the little fish has to stay up all night to update it for a month. If the results are very good, if the little fish is a great god, he will not ask for these subscriptions, but the actual situation is that the subscription is bleak, and the soup is not drinkable.
Tears begged everyone to subscribe for support, especially the first chapter. Brothers who did not subscribe remember to support it. At that time, Xiaoyu will still rely on the subscription to get the tweet.
