Chapter 94: Both Sides Play Tai Chi

Furthermore, even within the city of Chang'an!

Some students even spontaneously organized themselves to specifically hold parades, explaining the unfair treatment of the Sichuan Army to the citizens within the city.

Several groups of students had already arrived at the entrance of the Changan Field Headquarters.

These students were all shouting, demanding that the Sichuan Army be re-equipped and treated fairly and justly.

And that the Sichuan Army be allowed to set off for the front lines of the War of Resistance as soon as possible.

Jiang Mingsan saw the students at the entrance of the Changan Field Headquarters, and his head began to ache.

He had received a report from his subordinates that men from the Sichuan Army 22nd Group Army had arrived in Chang'an.

The railway tracks were even a size smaller, just so that trains from other provinces could not reach Jin Province directly.

This was simply embarrassing for him!

"In the direction of Niangziguan, the little devils of the 1st War Zone are also moving toward the 2nd War Zone; the defending troops have already engaged in fire with the devils."

"Since the command system of the Sichuan Army has changed, the 22nd Group Army now belongs to the 2nd War Zone."

"Director Jiang!" Deng Xihou did not stand on ceremony either, "I have come here this time under the orders of Marshal Liu."

"This railway station concerns the transport of military weaponry to the rear."

Jiang Mingsan then hurriedly said: "Jinkang!"

"Just talk about the matter of our Sichuan Army needing to be re-equipped!"

Now the ball was kicked to the 2nd War Zone.

"With equipment like this, how can we go to Jin Province to fight the devils?"

The two of them would act separately; as long as one side succeeded, that would be very good.

Here, he saw the Chang'an citizens' love for the Sichuan Army, as well as their cursing of the Changan Field Headquarters.

The railway station was now under the control of the Sichuan Army.

Sun Zhen let out a cold snort: "That's right!?"

"For us, the Sichuan Army, to want to get weapons from the hands of Yan Laoxi, we are probably dreaming."

"Commander, Deputy Commander... Greetings!"

The re-equipping of the Sichuan Army was originally just a delaying tactic of Principal Chang.

The military and political bigwigs of the Nanjing Command would have to find a way to appease the dissatisfaction of the masses.

Seeing the Group Army Commander arrive, the Sichuan Army soldiers immediately saluted Deng Xihou and Sun Zhen.

Saying this, Deng Xihou and Sun Zhen, along with the main generals of the Sichuan Army, were about to leave.

This idea that Yu Hua came up with was not bad.

"He definitely won't be willing to part with the equipment for our tens of thousands of Sichuan Army troops."

After everyone sat down!

Yu Hua had Wei Dayong pour water for the several generals of the Sichuan Army!

"Our Sichuan Army's weapons are inferior, and most of the soldiers are still in single-layered clothes and trousers, with bare feet and straw sandals."

Seeing the enthusiasm of the masses so high, Deng Xihou felt all the more that this kid Yu Hua had a sharp mind.

"Director Jiang, please wait a moment!"

After leaving the Changan Field Headquarters, Deng Xihou and Sun Zhen got into a jeep and headed toward the railway station.

"Our Sichuan Army 22nd Group Army is heading north to resist the war, and we must be re-equipped now."

Seeing the firm tone of Deng Xihou and Sun Zhen, Jiang Mingsan also said coldly: "Fine!"

"If Yan Laoxi agrees, Commander Sun, you will assemble our Sichuan Army's vanguard troops in Jin Province."

Yu Hua turned his gaze to Deng Xihou: "Commander Deng, you stay in Chang'an."

"As for the Sichuan Army's weaponry, since it has been allocated to the 2nd War Zone, it should be replenished by Yan Laoxi of the 2nd War Zone."

And just when Jiang Mingsan was having a headache.

"Yu Hua, Jiang Mingsan wants our Sichuan Army to head north immediately to the 2nd War Zone to change equipment."

Saying this, Jiang Mingsan walked out of the conference room with a grim expression.

Yan Laoxi had governed Jin Province for so many years and was extremely stingy.

Yu Hua saluted the two!

Deng Xihou looked at Yu Hua, "You kid, you did well!"

After a while, he returned, looked at Deng Xihou and Sun Zhen, and said: "The Principal's latest order."

Hearing this, Deng Xihou grinned and said: "I'm going to the railway station right now!"

Deng Xihou and Sun Zhen looked at each other!

Both of them were also startled in their hearts; this really had been predicted by Yu Hua.

"Keep a close watch on the armory; we will re-equip immediately once our troops arrive."

Met with Jiang Mingsan inside the conference room.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Mingsan immediately had someone arrange a conference room.

"Principal Chang ordering the marching Sichuan Army directly does not follow procedure."

Sun Zhen said: "Yu Hua, now the Nanjing Command has dumped the matter of weaponry onto the 2nd War Zone."

"Simple!" Yu Hua grinned: "Commander Sun, you go to the airport now and fly directly to Jin Province to find Yan Laoxi."

"By the way, publish newspapers to explain our Sichuan Army's situation to the people of the whole country—it's not that we aren't heading north."

"Moreover, given Yan Laoxi's stingy personality."

Holding his water cup, Yu Hua took a sip of water after seeing Deng Xihou say this.

"I will make a phone call now to ask Principal Chang for instructions."

"What is your take on this matter!"

"Right now, one Japanese division and three brigades are launching a fierce assault on Xinkou."

Making the Sichuan Army suffer so much, arriving in Chang'an hungry and freezing.

Deng Xihou and other Sichuan Army generals saw the citizens of Chang'an spontaneously giving gifts to the Sichuan Army.

Upon hearing this, Deng Xihou and Sun Zhen felt that what Yu Hua said made a lot of sense.

Seeing that Deng Xihou's tone was poor, Jiang Mingsan grinned and said ingratiatingly: "Jinkang!"

"If things don't work out on Commander Sun's side, our Sichuan Army must re-equip first."

Only knowing how to incessantly urge the Sichuan Army to hurry north.

Deng Xihou, Sun Zhen, and several other Sichuan Army generals.

"This matter, Principal Chiang ordered me personally!"

"It is that the Nanjing Command will not re-equip our Sichuan Army!"

"The current Jin Province is just like Songhu, the fighting is very intense."

"You all wait here!"

"The vanguard unit of the 122nd Division is currently occupying the Chang'an Railway station."

"Don't be in such a hurry to leave!"

"Good!" Deng Xihou and Sun Zhen both clapped and cheered.

Deng Xihou remained at the railway station.

"The ball is in our court now, how should this be resolved!"

The two men were also deeply moved inside!

"Commander, let's look at the map!"

The Changan Field Headquarters had no intention of re-equipping the Sichuan Army at all.

"Marshal Liu cannot command in person!"

"I am not wrong either!"

"If there is no re-equipping, we will just keep staying in Chang'an."

"You all hurry up and have this unit move north, and hand the railway station over to my Central Army to manage!"

He was now very angry at Li Wu for handling things poorly, and at the same time, at Yu Hua of the Sichuan Army.

Arranging this matter clearly and distinctly; once the people of the whole country knew the Sichuan Army was being treated unfairly.

If the Sichuan Army were truly re-equipped.

"After all, the railways in this Jin Province are different from other provinces."

"This is clearly asking our tens of thousands of Sichuan Army troops to go north and die!"

Putting down the water cup in his hand, he took out a map.

Jiang Mingsan also remembered him.

Speaking to this point, Yu Hua paused for a moment, and he looked at the generals present.

"Welcome... welcome..."

"Once our troops enter the war zone, there will be no time to rest and re-equip; we will have to be thrown directly into the battlefield."

At the entrance of the railway station!

Jiang Mingsan himself would certainly have to face punishment as well.

As for Jiang Mingsan asking the Sichuan Army to return the railway station, Deng Xihou also played tai chi with the Changan Field Headquarters.

Deng Xihou looked at Jiang Mingsan: "Director Jiang!"

"Since the Sichuan Army is now going to the 2nd War Zone to re-equip."

"Plus the military situation is urgent, Yan Laoxi will certainly have us engage the Japanese as soon as possible to slow down the little Japanese's advance."

Deng Xihou and Sun Zhen saw Yu Hua at the station.

"We will report this matter to Marshal Liu."

"We must re-equip; only when the troops are assembled will we cross the river!"

Very quickly!

Without delay, Sun Zhen went to the airport and took a plane to Jin Province.

"I shall take my leave first!"

Ten minutes later.

Seeing the Sichuan Army people arrive, Jiang Mingsan stepped forward to shake hands with Deng Xihou and Sun Zhen.

In any case, the Sichuan Army was stationed at the railway station, and they hadn't stopped the railway station from operating.

Deng Xihou would not hand it over; everything would have to wait until the equipment was in hand.
