The third chapter is clever (seven)
The Baihuazhou, the East Lake in Nanchang, is facing a lake on three sides. The continent is covered with green trees and flowers, and the environment is beautiful. There is a five-story western-style building in the center of the continent. It was originally the Jiangxi Provincial Library. It was requisitioned as the commander-in-chief of the Army, Navy and Air Force in 1930. From then on, it has been here for three steps, five steps and one sentry, with strict security and tourists disappearing.
The south of November is not yet cold, and the frog croaking on the summer night has long disappeared, leaving a silence; the bright moon swings in the breeze, and a few gentle laughs come from the depths of the shade, and a few figures are drinking tea and chatting.
"The chairman's high football team is indeed extraordinary. He took down Chongqing and its surrounding sixteen counties in less than half a year." The person who spoke was a national face, and the soldier sat opposite Chiang Kai-shek in a state-shaped manner.
Since the Hubei, Henan and Anhui Red Army broke through the siege and marched westward, Chiang Kai-shek mobilized a large number of troops, including Hu Zongnan, who claimed to be the first division in the world, to encircle and block the enemy along the way. Several times of encirclement and encirclement, all of which made the Red Army escape, making Chiang Kai-shek angry. The war in Jiangxi was not going smoothly, and the failure of the third encirclement and suppression made Chiang Kai-shek furious. After he succeeded in Hubei, Henan and Anhui, he immediately went to Nanchang to serve as the commander-in-chief of the encirclement and suppression army. He served as the commander-in-chief of the Central Army with his close and beloved general Chen Cheng, and was preparing to launch the fourth encirclement and suppression again in January.
During this period, Chiang Kai-shek was in a good mood. In addition to Zhuang Jihua's successful capture of Chongqing, the fourth encirclement and suppression of Zhu Mao Communist bandits was also very smooth. So he was interested in moving the venue for the deliberation to the open air today.
"It would be even more perfect if the central government could send troops into Sichuan." Before Chiang Kai-shek could speak, Chen Cheng said softly: "The Cultural Revolution is still ruthless."
"Ci Xiu, this is not a ruthless person. Zhuang Wenge is smart." said the old man in his fifties who was sitting opposite Chen Cheng, wearing a long gown and pair of glasses.
"Chang Qing is right. Everything is too much, but too little," Chiang Kai-shek spoke. He looked at Chen Cheng and explained the lesson three points to the tone of three points: "This time the Cultural Revolution was a dangerous move. You can't force Liu Xiang to anger. This move not only made Liu Xiang feel at ease, but also made Deng Xihou, Tian Songyao, Yang Sen and others feel at ease. Besides, even if you agree to the Central Committee send troops to Sichuan, the Central Committee cannot send troops now."
"But... the chairman, more than a thousand people, can't control the situation in Sichuan. How can they deal with it if something happens?" Chen Cheng said worriedly: "And why should he agree to hand over the taxes to him?"
"It's not surprising. I did this in Chaoshan back then. This is called exchanging tax rights for governance. If you don't have enough strength, you can't force the other party to get angry," Chiang Kai-shek took the tea cup in front of him leisurely, took a sip of tea and then said: "Ci Xiu, you have been in Huangpu for many years and have not had much interaction with the Cultural Revolution, so you don't understand him. He has always been a backup plan for doing things. I think Liu Xiang may not be able to protect the tax rights in the future."
As he said that, Chiang Kai-shek glanced at the people around him with a flash of eyes: "As for the troops, I was a little puzzled when I got the telegram. Can more than a thousand people control Chongqing? Later, when I thought of him asking me for people, he specifically pointed out that he wanted Huangpu graduates and soldiers with combat experience. I read the telegram again. The whole article was that the central government did not transfer one soldiers from other provinces to Sichuan. Now I understand that the Cultural Revolution played a word game with them, and if they did not transfer troops to Sichuan, he would recruit soldiers in Sichuan. At that time, there were only 645 people in the first phase of Huangpu, but we built two regiments. With the ability of Zhuang Cultural Revolution, with these thousand people, how many people could he become? You can think about it yourself."
"Text game," Xiong Shihui shook his head: "This... is a bit of a play."
Chiang Kai-shek laughed. He stood up while laughing, and Chen Cheng was about to stand up. Chiang Kai-shek patted his shoulder and signaled that he would not be despised: "Zhuang Wenge has a famous saying that he used despicable means to achieve noble goals. In Guangzhou, he used a trick to destroy the customs controlled by the British. As a result, Guangzhou's fiscal revenue doubled, which made Minister Song very happy."
"I don't think it's anything." Chen Cheng looked up at Chiang Kai-shek in the night: "Do not care about minor matters when accomplishing big things."
"Don't mention this matter. Tell me about the candidate for Chongqing mayor." Chiang Kai-shek stood under the shade of the tree and pinched the willow branches with his hands. This is the topic he wants to hear today.
The day after the power was issued, Zhuang Jihua led his troops into the city and took over various important departments in Chongqing. He then recommended Li Zhilong as the mayor of Chongqing to Chiang Kai-shek, and requested the appointment of Du Yuming as the commander of the police, Tang Zong as the chief of the police, Teng Jie as the director of the party department, and Hong Junqi replaced Li Zhilong as the deputy captain of the development team.
"Li Zhilong is absolutely not possible," Chen Cheng immediately expressed his objection: "Although he left the Communist Party, his experiences over the years have not been explained clearly, and more importantly, he has no experience in government affairs at all."
"Ci Xiu is right. Chongqing is an important town in the southwest and a transportation hub in Sichuan Province. There are more than 100,000 people in the city alone. There must be a mature and polite person to manage such a city." Yang Yongtai also said calmly that he has always opposed Chiang Kai-shek's rapid promotion of Huangpu students and is worried about the development of the Blue-Yi Society. Although Zhuang Jihua did not participate in the Blue-Yi Society, Du Yuming, Hong Junqi, and Tang Zong were all from the Blue-Yi Society, and Teng Jie was the founder of the Blue-Yi Society, so he always tried every means to control the expansion of the power of Huangpu students.
"I want to come here alone," Xiong Shihui said, "But how about Nu Gang? He is from Sichuan and knows the situation in Sichuan very well."
"No, but Nugang is a member of the First Army. He has a deep friendship with Liu Xiang and others. It is not suitable for him to go. How about He Guoguang?" Chiang Kai-shek proposed his candidate: "He and Liu Xiang and Yang Sen are both classmates in the Quick School, so it is easy to communicate with them. The current situation in Sichuan is just a hole, and it is also inseparable from the support of Liu Xiang and others. And..."
Chiang Kai-shek paused, thought about it and changed his words, "Let He Guoguang come to Nanchang to see me as soon as possible." Then he turned to Chen Cheng and said, "Ci Xiu, we have mobilized 500,000 troops this time to suppress the bandits. Among them, the middle route you command is our Central Army as the main force. You must learn from the lessons of the past, show the prestige of our Central Army, and do your best to completely wipe out the Zhu and Mao Communist bandits."
"Yes, the humble position will never let the Chairman down." Chen Cheng stood up and replied.
By the time He Guoguang arrived in Nanchang, the situation in Sichuan had changed drastically. When Liu Wenhui arrived at Longquan Post, Xiang Chuanyi had already lost to Chengdu. However, Xiang Chuanyi held on to Chengdu for three days and bought some time for Liu Wenhui. After Deng Xihou Tian Songyao conquered Chengdu, he immediately led his troops north and fought fiercely with Liu Wenhui at Longquan Post.
On the southern line, Guo Xunqi left Leng Yindong and marched 160 miles in two days. He sneaked into Zhang Qingping in Xingfu Town, Jiangjin, and forced Zhang Qingping to retreat to Luzhou. At this moment, if Liu Xiang continued to rush his troops north, he would be able to attack Liu Wenhui at Longquan Post with Deng Xihou and Tian Songyao. However, Liu Xiang ordered to turn to southern Sichuan and surrounded Luzhou, an important town in southern Sichuan.
Liu Wenhui's command headquarters and Deng Tian fought fiercely in Longquanyi for three days. Deng Xihou and Tian Songyao suffered heavy losses. At this moment, Leng Yindong led his troops to arrive. Deng Xihou and Tian Songyao saw that Liu Wenhui had to reinforce again. He immediately left the battlefield and led his troops to retreat to Chengdu. Liu Wenhui followed and pursued. Deng Tian was not strong enough in Chengdu and retreated to Guan County again, relying on Guanjiang to defend.
Liu Wenhui, who recaptured Chengdu, had to continue the attack. At this time, it was heard that Xia Shouxun was defeated by Pan Wenhua and Yang Sen's troops in Tongnan. Xia Shouxun threw the remaining troops and retreated to An Yue.
Liu Wenhui turned around and saw that although he had taken back Chengdu, Zhang Qingping was surrounded in Luzhou and was eager to rescue the soldiers. Xia Shouxun also asked for help after retreating to Anyue. Liu Wenhui felt that he could not continue to fight anymore. If he continued to fight, he would probably not be able to save his current place. So he invited his elder brother Liu Wenyuan as a lobbyist and demanded a truce. Liu Xiang also humorously told his uncle that he would not make things difficult for his father. As long as his father handed over Chengdu and retreated to Xikang and did not make trouble with him. Liu Wenyuan was angry and shook his hands back to his hometown in Dayi, and no longer cared about their uncle and nephew's affairs.
Zhang Qingping was desperate to rescue the troops, and announced his surrender a month later. His troops were incorporated by Liu Xiang, who appointed Guo Xunqi as the commander of the newly established Fifth Division. Liu Xiang then ordered Tang Shizun to lead his troops to sweep south of Sichuan and captured more than 20 counties in southern Sichuan in one fell swoop. Guo Xunqi led his troops north and met with Pan Wenhua in Longchang.
Liu Wenhui failed to seek peace, so he had to fight. However, he still fought against Liu Xiang. He had a dispute with his subordinates. Liu Wenhui deeply hated Deng Xihou's betrayal and decided to fight Deng Xihou and Tian Songyao first. However, Liu Wenhui's important generals Leng Yindong, Xia Shouxun and others were all students in Baoding and had a classmate relationship with the generals of Deng Xihou and Tian Songyao's subordinates. He was unwilling to fight with Deng Tian. What's more important is that they believed that the defeat was decided now and there was no benefit to continue fighting. The only way to peace is to defeat Liu Xiang. As long as Liu Xiang defeated Liu Xiang again, Liu Xiang would withdraw from the battlefield. Once Liu Xiang retreated, Deng Xihou and Tian Songyao naturally could not fight.
But Liu Wenhui insisted on his own opinion. He abandoned Leng Yindong, Xia Shouxun and other veterans, and instead launched young generals Liu Yuantang, Shi Zhaowu and others to launch an attack on the Dengtian division of Guan County. Although he suffered repeated failures, Liu Wenhui still had more than 80,000 troops at this moment, Deng Xihou and Tian Songyao divisions had more than 60,000 troops. Since Liu Wenhui had to distribute some troops to defend the prosperous Liu Xiang, the battle on the front line of Guanjiang was originally a even-match battle, but at this moment, the Hongsi side crossed Daba Mountain and appeared at the mouth of Lianghekou at the northern end of Tongjiang County, defeating a battalion of the defenders.
Tian Songyao originally had Luo Naiqiong Division and three detachments in northern Sichuan. Due to the tense war in Chengdu, he transferred Luo Naiqiong Division, Li Weiru Detachment, and Liu Hanxiong Detachment to Chengdu. Unexpectedly, as soon as he arrived here, the Red Army descended from the sky before he fired a shot. North Sichuan was Tian Songyao's home, and he had to save him, so he hurriedly ordered Li Weiru on the way to assist Bazhong; Liu Hanxiong rushed to Nanjiang and ordered Luo Naiqiong Division to follow up, recapture Tongjiang, and drive the Red Army out of his defense area.
However, when Tian Songyao left, the spirit of the army on the Guanjiang defense line was shaken. Deng Xihou led his troops to retreat to Xindu and rely on Kunhe to implement defense. At the same time, the telegram prompted Liu Xiang to go north quickly.
Liu Wenhui led his troops to pursue and conquered the two counties in Pi County and Chongning, but Deng Xihou suffered little loss, and these two counties can be said to have intentionally given up. Then the Liu and Deng armies fought fiercely on the front line of Kunhe, and the Kunhe River water changed color.
During the fierce battle in Kunhe, Liu Xiang held a Sichuan political conference in Longchang. Central representatives Zeng Kuoqing, Deng Xihou Tian Songyao's representatives Huang Yin, Yang Sen, Li Jiayu, Luo Zezhou, and Liu Cunhou all attended the meeting. At the meeting, Yang Sen and others announced that they supported Liu Xiang as the commander-in-chief of the Sichuan Army and supported Liu Xiang's unification of Sichuan politics.
After the meeting, Liu Xiang issued an order for advancement. This advance was very smooth. Before the shooting of Xia Shouxun's subordinate Wang Yuanhu and Deng He issued a telegram, announcing that they would accept the central government's order and leave the 24th Army from now on and are willing to accept the command of Commander Deng of the 28th Army.
Then Liu Wenhui's Longchang front collapsed quickly. Liu Xiang's troops divided into three groups to forcing Chengdu. He defeated Xiang Chuanyi's blockade at Longquanyi. Xiang Chuanyi withdrew from Chengdu. Liu Wenhui heard that Chengdu was lost and saw darkness in front of him. He immediately fainted. When he woke up, he shouted that the sky wanted to destroy me.
After Liu Wenhui woke up, he ordered the entire army to retreat to Xikang. At this point, Liu Wenhui was defeated and his subordinates all tried to find a way out. Xia Shouxun and Leng Yindong accepted the adaptation of Deng Xihou, Peng Chengfu and others accepted the adaptation of Liu Xiang. Li Jiayu chased him and captured Shi Zhaowu. Liu Xiang ordered a gun execution with great public anger. This was a great sigh that he was the first senior prisoner of war in the Sichuan Army's civil war.
However, Liu Xiang still kept his promise to his uncle. After the army pursued Xikang, Liu Wenhui was still in shock and wanted to flee to the Tibetan border. However, Liu Xiang ordered the withdrawal of troops and the truce of war and left Xikang to Liu Wenhui intact. At this point, the last civil war in Sichuan ended.
The war is over, but how to distribute dividends requires discussion. Liu Xiang held a aftermath work meeting in Chengdu. He became more cautious and invited Zhuang Jihua and Zeng Kuoqing to attend the meeting. Climbing ^ Piao Astronomy, this chapter was first published by ""
