Bourne: Command and Conquer

Chapter 1269, the situation is not optimistic

The dock is a mess.

Military, civilian, a mess.

There is a formal dock. There are also irregular ones. The entire Xiaguan Pier is completely managed like a sheep.

There is an inspection team at Shanghai Wusongkou Terminal. There is also one at Xiaguan Pier. But it doesn't work at all.

Because many of them are small boats. Very few big ships.

A small boat means you can dock at any time. The requirements for the dock are very low.

Even if there is no dock, you can dock directly. That's what those light fishing boats are like.

Boats can be parked ten kilometers up and ten kilometers down along the river bank.

"Commissioner, the inspection team leader is here."

"good."

Zhang Yong nodded.

He looked the inspection captain up and down.

This inspection captain is a bit interesting, with a lonely look on his face.

It's not like he's pretending.

Maybe it's just too difficult to get things done.

Jinling is at the foot of the emperor, with many dignitaries and troops.

In the final analysis, there are many big bosses.

Military boss. Party boss. Business giant. Local power...

There are also those who take advantage of others...

There are also Japanese, British, French, Americans...

No matter how powerful a big boss is, he, a little inspection captain, cannot afford to offend him.

If you accidentally detain the wrong boat, you will be scolded lightly. If not, you may be retaliated against.

In the eyes of ordinary people, the inspection captain is of course a very terrifying existence. But in the eyes of the big guys, he is just an ant.

Maybe even worse than an ant! It can be crushed to death casually.

"name."

"Jia Nenggan."

"Which side are you in charge of?"

"Legal Department."

"Legal Department?"

Zhang Yong tilted his head and looked at each other. A bit unexpected.

real. He thought it belonged to the Military Police Headquarters or the Garrison Headquarters!

Unexpectedly, it was the Legal Department.

By the way, what power does the Ministry of Justice have? You have no right at all. Because there is no gun in hand.

It's purely a useless part. Talking is useless.

Does the Republic of China have laws? have.

But they are all aimed at ordinary people. Not valid for the privileged.

Zhang Lingfu shot his wife to death. Such a serious crime was just a show in the end. You can continue to be a teacher later!

"Why is it that the Legal Department is in charge of you?"

"We were originally under the jurisdiction of the Military Police Command. But later, the Military Police Command felt that we often caused trouble for them, so they didn't want us. They pushed us to the Garrison Command. The Garrison Command didn't want us either. So we were eventually pushed over. To the Legal Department.”

"oh…"

Zhang Yong understood. It turned out that there was no oil or water.

In other words, the risks outweigh the benefits. As a result, both the Gendarmerie Headquarters and the Garrison Headquarters declined.

Mainly because the situation in Jinling is too special. You can offend someone accidentally.

Then the other party won't make trouble with you. Instead, he complained quietly behind his back. Or use other means to retaliate.

There are so many big bosses in Jinling, you never know when you will offend someone. I haven't figured it out yet after being stabbed in the back.

Even the military police commander Gu Zhenglun was worried about being sued in front of Chiang Kai-shek!

It’s not worth it for a Xiaguan Pier.

So I decided not to.

Chen Cheng is also in charge of the security headquarters, and he is not stupid. Of course not.

In the end, this hot potato was passed to the Legal Department.

It just so happens that the names are similar. But I don’t have the ability to refuse. You have to want it even if you don’t want it.

So, the legal department had no choice but to hold its nose and take it over.

Then, it's all about fending for itself.

The Minister of Justice is not stupid either. Understand that this is a thankless job. Of course it is impossible to intervene directly.

It is estimated that the inspection team is just a name.

Interesting.

Just in time, Zhang Yong took over.

Others can't handle those big guys, but he, Zhang Yong, can handle them.

Even the President of the Executive Yuan didn't dare to show his teeth to him, but I wanted to see who dared to get in trouble with me at the dock.

In the past, why did the inspection team offend so many big bosses just for a dock?

Now, why bother, the bosses, offending him, Commissioner Zhang, just for a dock?

Everyone in Jinling doesn't know that Zhang Yong is a mad dog. It bites people it sees. If bitten by him, the skin will be peeled off even if you don't die.

If you don’t believe me, please read Dean Wang. I don’t dare to speak out after the Night of Long Knives!

"Is there a phone?"

"Yes, yes."

"take me."

"Yes. Yes,"

Jia Nenggan hurriedly led the way.

When I came to the inspection team's office area, I found it looked like a pigsty. The kennels are better.

These guys are really messed up!

Now that I, Zhang Yong, am taking over the dock, you cannot do this.

I, Zhang Yong, can mess it up myself. But you absolutely can't. I'm such a double standard.

"Clean up, get clean."

"Yes. Yes."

Jia Nenggan hurriedly agreed.

Recruiting personnel to take action. Start a big hygiene campaign.

Zhang Yong picked up the phone. Call the Legal Department directly. Find Yang Lichu’s father.

Yes, what's his name?

Forgot.

never mind. Just call him Vice Chief Yang.

Undersecretary of the Ministry of Justice. Deputy position. The Legal Department has several deputy chiefs.

State your identity.

Soon, the call was connected.

Yang Lichu's father's voice came, "Hello..."

"Secretary Yang, this is Zhang Yong. I have something to discuss with you now." Zhang Yong got straight to the point.

"Say it!"

"Shimonoseki Pier, I'm ready to take over. From now on, the inspection team is directly subordinate to me."

"Wait a minute. What did you say?"

"Shimonoseki Pier. Inspection team."

"What does it have to do with us?"

"The inspection team is under your control. I am taking over now, and of course I want to say hello to you."

"Are we still in charge of Xiaguan Pier? I don't know!"

"Anyway, from now on, I, Zhang Yong, will take over. Please inform your minister."

"OK…"

"that's all."

Zhang Yong hung up the phone.

Legal Department. He doesn't care at all.

If the other party was not Yang Lichu's father, he wouldn't even bother to inform him.

He doesn't care about all the departments that don't have guns. Including the Executive Yuan.

Also includes the Military Senate.

The Military and Administrative Department has guns. But Zhang Yong is no different.

Put down the mic.

Look outside.

The inspection team only has more than thirty people. Just shabby.

How can we manage such a big dock and so many ships? It's good if you can support yourself.

There are so many boats outside...

Collect money?

No. Registered.

Look how many ships there are. Be aware of this.

Silently pondering how to carry out the work. Suddenly, a yellow dot appeared. There are a lot of white spots around. Fully armed.

It appears from the west. Just on the river. Go down the river.

Judgment is a troop transport.

The white spots are densely packed. It was obviously packed with people.

curious…

Who is coming?

And with a heavily armed team?

There must have been notifications. Otherwise, wouldn't Jinling be very dangerous?

Walk out of the inspection station. Come to the **** of the shore. Raise the telescope.

At this time, the night was vast, but the night had not yet completely fallen. You can vaguely see it. But can't see clearly.

"Jia Nenggan!"

"arrive."

"Are you aware that a troopship is arriving today?"

"I know!"

"Where did the team come from?"

"It's the 66th Division of the Sichuan Army. It came from Chongqing the day before yesterday."

"The 66th Division of the Sichuan Army?"

Zhang Yong nodded thoughtfully.

No wonder there is a yellow dot. It was probably the division commander Wang Kuiyuan.

It seems that the situation on the Songhu front line is relatively bad. Not only did Wang Yaowu and others' troops go up, but the 66th Division of the Sichuan Army also came.

etc…

It seems that in Suzhou, there are three divisions of its own.

Well, strictly speaking, they are the three divisions that I "supervise". The 67th Army was formed.

But until now, no one has informed me about the 67th Army. Did he deliberately forget to notify, or was he not planning to use the 67th Army?

Because the 67th Army was "supervised" by Zhang Yong, it can be regarded as a direct descendant. Not ready to use it yet? Put local miscellaneous troops in first?

Suddenly it occurred to me that Jia Nenggan seemed to know a lot of news.

If the Japanese invaders wanted to obtain information, they didn't seem to need to go to anyone else, just Jia Nenggan.

Take back your messy thoughts.

On the national military side, if you want to maintain high confidentiality, forget it.

It's just a big sieve. If it doesn’t leak here, it will leak there.

Even if you are the Thousand-Armed Guanyin, you cannot block all the loopholes. Therefore, the main force wins! The conspiracy wins!

Even if you know all the secrets, you still can't crack them.

Wait silently.

Waiting for the troop transport to arrive at the dock.

After more than half an hour, the troop transport finally slowly docked.

This is a transport ship with a displacement of 1,200 tons. It was originally used to load cargo. Now it's full of people.

In the telescope, Zhang Yong did see Wang Kuiyuan.

The yellow dot is indeed him.

The troops around him are also very well equipped. All flower organs. It should be a guard company, or guard battalion.

Other main forces may still be behind. He's here to hit the front line. Put away the telescope. Come up and greet.

"Mr. Wang."

"Commissioner Zhang."

Wang Kuiyuan was also surprised.

I didn't expect to meet Zhang Yong here.

Wasn't Zhang Yong always in Peiping before? Back?

"please."

"please."

The two found a place to sit down.

Wang Kuiyuan was indeed tired. Also a bit seasick.

After resting for a while, I felt much better.

"When did you come back to Jinling?"

"This afternoon."

"Did the commission ask you to come back?"

"Actually, I called you many days ago. I was delayed on the way and only returned today."

"How's the war going in the north?"

"Not optimistic."

Zhang Yong shook his head. Tell the truth.

Although, at the south entrance, the national army once blocked the Japanese attack.

However, it is just a temporary resistance. Can't resist for long. Eventually, the Japanese invaders would break through the Nankou defense line and continue westward.

This is a question of comprehensive national strength.

The comprehensive national strength of China and the Japanese invaders are really very different.

At the beginning of the war, the Japanese invaders were very strong. There are plenty of soldiers and weapons.

More divisions can be created at any time. And they all have good combat effectiveness.

All this has been prepared by the Japanese invaders for a long time.

Before the war started, the Japanese invaders had already charged 500% of their power. This is very powerful.

We must wait until the Japanese invaders release their accumulated strength before they have a chance to fight back.

This turning point was the Battle of Wuhan.

After the Japanese invaders occupied Wuhan and Guangzhou, their accumulated strength was basically used up.

If the fighting continues, the Japanese invaders themselves will begin to struggle.

The punches he punched reached the limit. Must be recycled.

Only China has the possibility to fight back.

"Songhu..."

"I don't know either. No one told me the truth. My judgment is not optimistic either."

"Why?"

"If we were optimistic, we wouldn't let you go ashore in Aurous Hill."

"That's right..."

Wang Kuiyuan was silent.

They are the Sichuan Army. It's a motley crew.

If there was no urgent need, they would not be able to get close to Jinling.

Jinling is the capital of the country. It was Chiang Kai-shek's bed.

"How many divisions have you come?"

"According to the order of the Ministry of Military Affairs, all four armies and eight divisions will leave Sichuan."

"How many people came to the Songhu battlefield?"

"The first batch, Rao Guohua and I."

"Rao Guohua..."

Zhang Yong looked silent.

He has never met Rao Guohua. But I know the name.

Like Wang Mingzhang, he will die heroically for his country. The weapons and equipment of the Sichuan Army are indeed too poor, resulting in a very weak overall combat capability.

This is an objective fact.

Spirit alone cannot defeat the Japanese invaders.

In the end, it still depends on weapons and equipment.

Decades from now, the PLA will be armed to the teeth. The phobia of insufficient firepower penetrates deep into the bone marrow. In the advanced stage, the disease is terminal and there is no cure...

Back then, there was only one gun per squad in the Red Army. Decades later, there will also be one gun per class.

Everything else is a big round tube...

"When will the troops arrive?"

"It might take five days."

"Then you are going to report to the Military and Political Department now?"

"No. Report directly to the Songhu Security Headquarters."

"Yeah?"

Zhang Yong pondered slightly.

It seems that the front line really needs additional troops!

It proves more and more that the situation there is terrible. It may be that the Japanese aggressors' warship support firepower was too fierce.

In front of the 203mm naval gun, the infantry is really vulnerable.

No matter how much you go up, it won't be enough to kill you.

"Be careful about gunfire."

"Know."

"I'm talking about the Japanese warship's artillery, large caliber, 203 mm. One shell can blow up a platoon."

"this…"

"There is not much difference in light weapons between us and the Japanese invaders. But there is a huge difference in heavy weapons. The Japanese invaders have a lot of heavy weapons, including planes, tanks, and heavy artillery. We must find ways to avoid them. We must use our strengths and avoid our weaknesses, and pay attention to preserving our effective forces. Otherwise, no matter how many people go up there, they won’t die.”

"But the order from the Military and Political Ministry..."

"While executing orders, we must pay attention to methods and methods. We must not act recklessly. We must pay attention to night fighting. Ambush fighting. Sneak attacks. Ambushes. Don't just know position fighting."

Zhang Yong spoke sincerely.

Very depressed.

Very sad too.

In fact, the Battle of Songhu could have been fought better.

Although, in the end, Huninghang could not hold on. But, at least, it can cause the Japanese invaders to suffer greater casualties. Self-inflicted casualties are smaller.

The generals at all levels of the national army have rigid tactics and do not know how to use tactics flexibly, which is a big drawback.

Most commanders only know positional warfare. Lying in the trench passively waiting for the Japanese invaders to attack.

As a result, they were severely damaged by aircraft and heavy artillery.

Some troops had already suffered more than half their casualties before they saw the Japanese invaders. The vitality is severely damaged.

Relatively speaking, the Japanese invaders' squad tactics were much more flexible.

Various twists and turns, various divisions and encirclements, all done very smoothly. Often forcing the national army's defense lines to collapse.

On the battlefield, the Japanese invaders also had many advantages that must be learned.

After chatting for a while, Wang Kuiyuan left.

He also wanted to rush to the Songhu Security Headquarters immediately.

There are no trains. It's impossible to take a train. There are no cars either.

Must ride a horse.

He rode his horse from Jinling to the battlefield of Songhu.

well…

Zhang Yong still feels pain in his **** when he thinks about riding a horse for a long distance...

"Commissioner!"

"Commissioner!"

Someone hurried over from the side.

Found to be a military police officer. Sweating all over. Came on a three-wheeled motorcycle.

"What's up?"

"Reporting Commissioner, people from the Yunnan Army Office are looking for you everywhere."

"Dian Army?"

Zhang Yong was a little surprised.

how? The Yunnan Army is also looking for you?

I seem to have had no contact with the Yunnan Army before...

"Ask him to come over!"

"yes."

The gendarmerie officer left on a three-wheel motorcycle.

Zhang Yong continued to observe the river.

Lots of boats.

Very much.

It shows that there is no shortage of ships.

As long as everything is organized, the transportation capacity is still very large.

The key is organization.

It's execution. To enforce prohibitions.

Otherwise, with so many ships jamming each other, it would be a waste.

At the same time, all ships must be in place. Can't run away. Even if there is danger, you must persist.

The last one is more difficult to do.

Militarized management must be implemented.

Otherwise, if the situation becomes chaotic, many people may simply sail away.

Disaster.

Completely inexperienced.

I have never been exposed to such a job before.

Suddenly I thought of someone.

Boat gang?

right. Boat gang.

I have encountered this before in Hankou.

perhaps…

At this time, the military police officer came back on a three-wheeled motorcycle.

Inside the sidecar of a motorcycle. An acquaintance sat. I vaguely remember that he seemed to be the representative of the Yunnan Army in Shanghai. There is a beautiful little girl next to him.

Take out your little notebook. Turned over. Finally found it. It turned out to be Shan Xiufu!

So he was marked as well.

"Your Majesty Commissioner."

"Mr. Shan, please."

Zhang Yong looked indifferent. Lukewarm.

Shan Xiufu sat down. He hesitated to speak.

"Mr. Shan, you have something to say. These are extraordinary times and time is precious. Don't say any polite words."

"I wonder if the Commissioner is interested in supervising our Yunnan Army?"

"Inspector?"

Zhang Yong was suspicious.

Supervise the Yunnan Army?

Or did you ask for it?

What number?
