Section 4 Drums of War (6)
Liu Wenhui was also anxious after receiving the telegram. He recruited aides to discuss and accuses Chiang Kai-shek of Long Yun of attempting to expand the incident and turn the disputes among the original Yi people into wars between the two provinces, and demand that the central government stop and severely punish Long Yun's behavior.
After Chiang Kai-shek received the telegram, he had not sent Long Yun a telegram, and Long Yun's telegram also arrived. In the telegram, he accused the killing of Yi people in northern Yunnan by Zisaichu. He committed a great crime and must be severely punished and warned for future generations.
At first, Chiang Kai-shek wanted to hand over the self-study to Long Yun to calm the incident and exchange Long Yun's dispatch of troops to Guangxi, but Lin Wei reminded him that the real purpose of Long Yun's use of troops to Xikang was probably to avoid the order to send troops to Guangxi. Whether to severely punish Self-study should listen to Zhuang Jihua's opinions, after all, he is still familiar with Panzhihua.
Chiang Kai-shek's telegram caught up in Ya'an, and Zhuang Jihua immediately replied without hesitation that he did not agree to punish the punishment of self-study. He believed that Liu Wenhui wanted to intervene in northern Yunnan through the Yi people, but Long Yun also wanted to intervene in the Daliangshan area through the Yi people. Long Yun's direct descendants were mostly Yi people, and they were mostly related to the Yi people in northern Yunnan. If the Yi people in Daliangshan were too severe and returned to the Yi people in Daliangshan, the Yi people in northern Yunnan would take the opportunity to enter the Daliangshan area. When the Yi people in Daliangshan failed to succeed, they would only surrender to the Yi people in northern Yunnan. In this way, Long Yun's power would enter Xikang with the Yi people.
Then Zhuang Jihua introduced himself to the beginning of self-study, pointing out that this person has received a Chinese education and is very influential in the local area. If he is kind to him this time, he will definitely be grateful, which will be of great benefit to the stability of the Daliangshan area.
After receiving the telegram from Zhuang Jihua, Chiang Kai-shek sent a telegram to Long Yun. He demanded that the military operations in the Jinsha River area be stopped immediately, the troops be transferred to the Yunnan-Guangxi border, and the preparations for combat in Guangxi. Long Yun indeed refused to send troops on the pretext of tense situation on the Sichuan-Yunnan border.
After Zhuang Jihua met Liu Wenhui in Ya'an, he asked him what he wanted to deal with this matter. What else could Liu Wenhui say at this moment? He left a brigade next to him. The other troops were all heading to Huili area, but the total number was only 13,000. The difference was too big compared to the 50,000 troops in Longyundi.
Liu Wenhui was in a hurry and completely lost his opinion, making Zhuang Jihua sneer in his heart. If Liu Ziqian is a person with no opinion, he dares to extend his hand to northern Yunnan, since you drag me into the water, you must pay the price. The highest command of the Huili region and local army must be held in his hands.
The broom is not there. The dust will not run by itself. Zhuang Jihua first established himself in the war. The guard team now has more than 8,000 people to attend Huili. This is the largest gathering of the guard team outside Chongqing. In this way, the guard team plus the 24th Army has a total of more than 20,000 people, which is quite enough to fight and defend.
Liu Wenhui was reluctant to give this command, but he had to give it to him. After receiving Liu Wenhui's warrant, Zhuang Jihua said to him with a smile: "General Liu, I have something wrong with me. If I am in command, I can only obey my orders. Even the chairman can only give me orders."
Liu Wenhui cursed in his heart, but laughed on his face: "Cultural Revolution. Don't worry, I will go over to command them. If there is anything, just order it directly. If anyone doesn't obey the order, you will shoot him, and I will never say anything."
Zhuang Jihua smiled faintly: "Okay, this is what you said, I've said goodbye."
"Don't worry, Cultural Revolution, how do you want to solve this problem? Can you tell me a little bit?" Liu Wenhui saw that Zhuang Jihua was leaving, so he quickly called him.
"Isn't this obvious?" Zhuang Jihua said leisurely: "Two, both sides will stop the army. If you pay them some money, it will be considered a loss to Lu Guandi."
Liu Wenhui didn't say anything when he heard this. Zhuang Jihua couldn't help but want to scold him. He wanted to keep a dime when he caused trouble. You actually picked up the shares of the Sichuan Development Company. Xikang's development hasn't done much yet. Don't you feel nervous if you hold so much money in your hands?
"We are all wise men, and this condition is already very relaxed for you."
Liu Wenhui smiled bitterly, knowing that his thoughts had been seen through again, he nodded, as if he had accepted the plan. However, Zhuang Jihua made him feel nervous: "However, if Long Yun disagrees, the conditions may change, and I will send you a telegram at that time."
Zhuang Jihua walked to Dechang and did not move forward any further. He sent a telegram to Long Yun in Dechang, suggesting that they meet and talk to each other by the Jinsha River, or that he would go to Kunming to meet him. Of course, all premises are to stop the military operation.
Long Yun was quite proud at this time. Chiang Kai-shek didn't care about him now. His army forced his crossing of the Jinsha River and defeated Chen Guangzao. Liu Yuantang retreated from Jiaopingdu to Huili to defend himself, while Chen Guangzao fled all the way to Dechang.
Zhuang Jihua did not receive a call from Long Yun, but received a message that Huili was surrounded, which shocked him. He called Li Anding and asked about the status of the work team. Li Anding's call back made him extremely angry.
In his call, Li Anding said that five members of the second team of the Geology Team of the Working Team were killed and seven were injured. The hydropower station team had no time to withdraw and hid in their own territory. They were attacked by Yi people in northern Yunnan and the Yunnan military and local governments. Twenty-six people were killed in the guard team, and fifteen members of the working team were abducted by Yi people in northern Yunnan, including water and electricity expert Cao Ruizhi; other experts and professors did not die, and four were injured, including civil engineering expert Li Shutian.
This telegram angered Zhuang Jihua. You Yi people killed you and actually killed us in the work team. Zhuang Jihua was furious and sent a call to Long Yun again and proposed four items. One was immediately released the fifteen abducted team members; the other was immediately retreated and restored the social order in Huili area; the third was compensation for the work team's lives and property losses of 8 million; the fourth was severely punished the Yi leaders and the generals of the Yunnan Army who led the team to attack.
After sending the telegram to Long Yun, Zhuang Jihua calmed down for a moment, feeling that things might not be as simple as he imagined. Long Yun was afraid that he would do something here. So he used the telegram to Chongqing, and ordered Du Yuming to lead another 20,000 people to rush to the meeting immediately, and at the same time, he ordered Song Yunfei to lead the special forces to arrive at Dechang as quickly as possible.
After making this arrangement, Zhuang Jihua drove the group that had been transferred to Xichang some time ago to Dechang overnight.
Then Li Anding called again and asked if he would join the war. Zhuang Jihua called back and sarcastically said, "You don't resist." See if the Yunnan Army will let you go after entering the city."
After receiving the telegram, Li Anding discussed with Fan Hanjie. Fan Hanjie was a military commander, but in the Panzhihua power system designed by Zhuang Jihua, he should be under the command of Li Anding.
Li Anding was arrested and almost killed. Although Fan Hanjie, who was in Fujian at that time, did not bear the main responsibility, he also had to bear some responsibility, but Li Anding was not clear about it.
But Li Anding knew that the development team suffered unprecedented losses and he was responsible. Although Zhuang Jihua did not mention it now, he still didn't know what to do after the war. Now he had to sacrifice his merits.
"Brother Fan. Look at how we fight?" After quelling Liu Yang's rebellion, Li Anding was sent to the intelligence department by Chiang Kai-shek. Since then, he has basically never went directly to the battlefield. Fan Hanjie participated in the Northern Expedition and was trained in Germany. His military experience has far exceeded that of Li Anding, so he is naturally the one who commands the battle.
"I went to Liu Yuantang to ask. He now has five regiments. Lu Quan lost about one thousand people in the battle between Jinsha River. We have a whole brigade, more than 5,000 people. The two troops have more than 10,000 people in total. The Yunnan Army in the chase is six brigades commanded by Sun Du, with a total strength of 50,000. We are more than enough to defend this Huili." There are not so many people." Li Anding shook his head and said, "The number of people in the Yunnan Army and the local area is more than 7,000 people. Long Yun has a total of eight brigades, two of which were newly formed last year and this year. There are more than 20 security groups. The combat effectiveness of these security groups is relatively low. Long Yun cannot not want Kunming, so there are only six brigades at most. After deducting the casualties of Lu Quan and the battles on the riverside, the regular army will not exceed 40,000."
Fan Hanjie looked at him in surprise, and then understood: "It's worthy of being an agent, and all these intelligences have been investigated."
"When I came to the local area, the Cultural Revolution asked me to pay attention to collecting information from Xikang and Yunnan. He was afraid that something would happen at that time, but it was a pity." Li Anding sighed: "If it weren't for the trouble of Guangdong and Guangxi, the Central Army that had already arrived in Dali would not have left Yunnan. If they were there, he wouldn't have dared to cause trouble for Long Yun."
After Li Anding arrived at Huili, he worked hard to deploy an intelligence network in Xichang and Kunming, but he failed to enter the top level in Yunnan. Long Yun trusted the most was his Yi brothers, but even so he obtained a lot of information from Yunnan.
Seeing that Li Anding was in a low mood, Fan Hanjie knew that he was resentful of the losses of the development team. In addition, he felt guilty about him and advised: "It's already like this. We will try our best to fight this battle. Where is the Cultural Revolution? I will talk about it at that time." Speaking of this, he paused: "Actually, you have tried your best. Our shrinking movements are already very fast, but Chen Guangzao was defeated faster, this bastard. The development team has such a large distribution range, and it is impossible to return to the city in time."
Li Anding shook his head and said, "Brother Fan, thank you. I still have the responsibility. I shouldn't let them go to my own house. I should have thought that this time the matter was caused by my own house, and they would definitely not let them go. I was negligent."
Li Anding was very sad when he said this. He remembered his experience in the past two years. He finally escaped from the death row and was sent to this remote place, but he was eventually found.
"You have been working in this remote place for almost two years. The Panzhihua project is progressing smoothly, and you have made great contributions,"
Before Fan Hanjie finished speaking, Li Anding interrupted him: "It turned out that I thought it was a suffrage, but only after I came here I realized that the Cultural Revolution was my important task. I invested millions a year and allocated nearly 100,000 manpower. This is a brilliant project, but now... Brother Fan, I really have no face to see him."
Fan Hanjie really didn't know what to say now. He patted Li Anding on the shoulder: "Ask someone who is not an unreasonable person, fight this battle first, the essence of the development team is here. If you can't defend the knowledge, the development team will be destroyed. At that time, we can only cut our heads by ourselves."
"No," Lee Anding's eyes turned red: "My head must have been cut off by those black bones at that time."
