"Captain of Jiangsu? Humph..." Fang Zida smiled coldly, without even looking at him. He raised his left hand and Zhang Huchen, who was behind him, stepped forward quickly, took out an order and began to read it out. This order has two meanings, one is that
It was Fang Zida who, as the general manager of the Central Bank, was appointed as the special commissioner to assist the Ministry of National Defense in reorganizing the Eighth Division. Secondly, due to the serious negligence of Jiangsu Governor Cheng Dequan during the revolutionary rebellion, he was dismissed from his post as Jiangsu Governor and was escorted to Beijing for review on the same day. During Cheng Dequan's review
, Jiangsu's military and political affairs were temporarily represented by Fang Zida. After the eighth division was transferred to the National Defense Force and reorganized, Jiangsu implemented the separation of military and political affairs, and the central government appointed important officials to take over Jiangsu's civil affairs.
"ah!"
"How can this be!"
"Okay! Great!"
For a moment, everyone was stunned by the news, and then their reactions were very different. Cheng Dequan and Zhao Hengti were ashen on the spot, with sweat dripping from their foreheads. Tao Deyao, Liu Jianfan and others were shocked, looking at each other with panic in their hearts, Huang Kaiyuan, Li Shimao
, Li Jun, He Sui and the others were overjoyed, and even Wang Xiaozhen, who had been sitting firmly on Mount Tai, also smiled.
"Captain Cheng, please..." After the order was read out, Zhang Huchen walked expressionlessly in front of Cheng Dequan, who was slumped on the chair. At this time, Cheng Dequan's eyes were empty, his face was pale, and his trembling lips were trembling.
He didn't know what he was talking about. He was like a deflated rubber ball. He was picked up by two military policemen and carried away without any resistance.
After taking Cheng Dequan away, Fang Zida went straight to where he was just now. He sat down with his big sword and golden horse, and glanced around with cold eyes. No one even dared to breathe a sigh of relief.
"Mr. Zhangming, actually I..." Cheng Dequan's sudden resignation made Zhao Hengti lose his confidence like a deadbeat dog whose bones were taken out. When he thought of what he had just done, waves of cold sweat soaked his back.
, forcing a smile, Zhao Hengti stepped forward and spoke uneasily, trying to explain a few words for himself.
"By the way, Mr. Zhao, I happen to have something to discuss with you." Before Zhao Hengti could finish speaking, Fang Zida interrupted him.
"I don't dare to discuss it, but Mr. Zhang Ming has given orders, and Zhao dare not disobey..." Zhao Hengti said in panic, wiping the cold sweat from his forehead.
"Haha, Commander Zhao, we still need to discuss it. In fact, it is a good thing for you to say it." Fang Zida smiled and said: "Commander Zhao has served in the Eighth Division for a long time, from the first brigade commander to the division commander.
His contribution to the Eighth Division is really not small. In the battles of Nanjing and Shanghai, Commander Zhao, as the commander-in-chief of the Eighth Division, has made great contributions as everyone knows. The Central Committee and the Army Ministry have not been able to commend Commander Zhao. It’s not that they are dissatisfied with you.
It’s about considering the overall situation.”
"I don't deserve it. This is what Zhao should do. I don't deserve commendations and so on." Zhao Hengti had more sweat on his forehead and couldn't wipe it off no matter how hard he wiped it off.
Smiling slightly, Fang Zida took out a cigar and lit it, and continued: "There is nothing you shouldn't do. If you have merit, you will be rewarded. If you make mistakes, you will be punished. Reward and punishment are clear. This is the rule in the military. Otherwise, no one will bravely sacrifice for the country in the future."
What? People’s hearts are broken, and it will be difficult to lead the troops below. Commander Zhao has made great contributions to suppressing the rebellion, and he should be rewarded. Haha, this is a commendation order and promotion letter from the Ministry of the Army. Congratulations, Commander Zhao!"
After taking the document handed over by Fang Zida, Zhao Hengti's expression turned gloomy after taking a look at it. His legs went weak and he almost fell to the ground. Yes, what Fang Zida gave him was indeed a promotion order. Due to his meritorious service in countering the rebellion, the Ministry of War will start from now on.
Zhao Hengti was promoted to the rank of Army Lieutenant General, and there was also a central transfer order, which clearly stated that Zhao Hengti, the former commander of the Eighth Army Division, was hereby transferred to the newly established Central Army University.
"Congratulations to General Zhao, congratulations to General Zhao." Fang Zida stood up with a smile, cupped his hands and congratulated him repeatedly. The muscles on Zhao Hengti's face twitched slightly, and his expression was full of unwillingness and anger.
"Oh my, isn't General Zhao overjoyed?" Fang Zida said with a smile: "General Zhao's admission to the Central Army University this time is really important to the country! The construction of the National Defense Force requires a large number of basic talents, and the Central Army University is responsible for national defense construction.
The most important thing is that General Zhao will have a bright future after taking on this important task. Hey! Why are you guys still standing there and not congratulating General Zhao?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Huang Kaiyuan was the first to react. He came up to congratulate Zhao Hengti with a smile, and praised Zhao Hengti's entry into Beijing as a great joy. General Zhao will have a bright future and a bright future in the future. He also showed a look of extreme envy in his words.
If outsiders didn't understand, they would really think that Zhao Hengti had been promoted.
Li Shimao also had a smile on his face and "sincerely congratulated" Zhao Hengti on his promotion, but he was actually very happy in his heart: "Zhao Hengti, Zhao Hengti, you danced so happily just now, you didn't expect that you would be here today, right?"
Wang Xiaozhen, Li Jun, He Sui and others also came forward to congratulate one by one. Even Tao Deyao and Liu Jianfan endured the nausea like eating flies and congratulated Zhao Hengti on his promotion with a smile. Zhao Hengti was so angry that he gritted his teeth, but the situation
He had no choice but to pretend to be happy, but the smile on his face was even uglier than crying.
"General Zhao, the Central Army University is busy with affairs. When Zida came, the commander repeatedly asked General Zhao to leave for his post as soon as possible to avoid delaying important matters at the military academy. I think so, there is a train going north in exactly two hours, General Zhao seizes the time
If you can still catch up, Zhang Huchen, please immediately send a few people to help General Zhao sort it out and set off as soon as possible!"
Afterwards, Fang Zida looked at Tao Deyao and Liu Jianfan again, patted his forehead and seemed to suddenly remember something: "Haha, I almost forgot. General Zhao is going to take on an important task. It's okay if he doesn't have capable people around him. Since the central government asked me
I will call the shots in coordinating the reorganization of the Eighth Division and the National Defense Force. Commander Tao and Commander Liu, please go with General Zhao. You can also take good care of General Zhao along the way. When you get to the Army University, you can become an instructor.
Our National Defense Force will cultivate more talents."
Tao Deyao and Liu Jianfan were stunned for a moment, knowing in their hearts that they were completely finished. Who would have thought that a good plan suddenly changed, and they, who had the upper hand and were almost sure of it, were instantly defeated. Not only was Cheng Dequan arrested, but Zhao Hengti was given the opportunity to be promoted.
After surrendering, even Tao Deyao and Liu Jianfan instantly lost their rights and were kicked out of the Eighth Division.
All this was done by this damn Fang Zida. How could this happen if he hadn't suddenly appeared? Tao Deyao was so angry that his teeth were almost broken. His eyes were filled with anger, and his heart was filled with rage, and he put his right hand on the pistol.
.
"No! Never!" Liu Jianfan was also very disappointed, but he was a little calmer than Tao Deyao. When he saw that Tao Deyao seemed to be about to draw a gun and fight, he quickly held his hand and shook his head to stop him.
"Hahaha!" Zhao Hengti was silent for a while, his face changing with gloom and light, and suddenly he laughed up to the sky: "It is indeed a good job to go to the Central Army University. Since the higher ups require Zhao to take office as soon as possible, there is nothing to deal with.
Anyway, I am a warrior with nothing to offer, and I have nothing to deal with in the military camp. Bai Qing, Kun Tao, let’s set off now.” After saying that, Zhao Hengti left on his own initiative, and before leaving, he winked at Tao Deyao and Liu Jianfan,
He motioned for them to follow him.
As he walked out, Tao Deyao finally couldn't hold back his anger: "Teacher, are we just leaving like this?"
"Don't leave? What do you want to do if you don't leave?" Zhao Hengti asked coldly.
"Fight! This Eighth Division doesn't belong to him alone. Even if everything goes to death, I won't let Fang Zida have an easy time!"
"Fight? What are you going to fight for?" Zhao Hengti shook his head and sighed: "I'm afraid in the end the fish is dead and the net is dead and nothing happens. Let's go. We have completely lost this game. Fang Zida is indeed a character! But... hum!
Thirty years to Hedong and thirty years to Hexi. We still have to wait and see what the future will bring!"
Until he left the division headquarters, Tao Deyao, who was still furious just now, was suddenly frightened into a cold sweat by what he saw. He saw that the entire Eighth Division had been controlled by Fang Zida at some point. Just outside the division headquarters, two people stood quietly.
The soldiers with loaded guns and live ammunition were led by Liu Zhi, Fang Zida's confidant. He was full of murderous intent and covered with armor. It seemed that with just one order from Fang Zida, these wolves and tigers could kill them all.
"You see, those who know the current affairs are heroes. They keep the green hills and don't worry about running out of firewood." Among the three of them, only Zhao Hengti was not too surprised. It was as if he had expected this result before he came out. He smiled faintly, straightened his military uniform, and said
He nodded to Liu Zhi who greeted him, then took Tao Deyao and Liu Jianfan into a prepared car and went directly to the train station.
