403 Re-entering Sichuan 2
"It's not your turn to question the matter between the Central Committee and our Sichuan Army." As soon as Jiang Wenhao spoke, Pan Wenhua, who was Liu Xiang's right-hand man, immediately stood up with a slap in the table.
"It's not the turn of Jiang's question. Can you get your turn? If you really think your wings are hard, we can do it with real swords and guns, so that some people can recognize their weight!" Jiang Wenhao is famous for his high vision in the Northwest Army, and there are not many people who can see the many generals of the Northwest Army, not to mention Pan Wenhua, a person who can only rank among the Sichuan Army.
"What kind of style is it to sit back and make noise?" Jiang Li scolded Jiang Wenhao.
"What do you think of me going east to fight against the war?" Liu Xiang's face darkened slightly at this time. Although he knew the power of the Northwest Army, he was overwhelmed by Jiang Li's men, and his face could not be reduced for a while. Although Jiang Li had stopped Jiang Wenhao just now, without Jiang Li's instructions, could Jiang Wenhao have the courage?
"Brother Liu wants to lead the Sichuan army to go east, in principle, I naturally support it. However, the War of Resistance is nationwide, with rivers in East China, which is not suitable for the rapid interspersion of the Japanese mechanized troops. It is relatively easier to delay the speed of the Japanese army. As Wen Hao said just now, once Pingjin is lost, the Japanese mechanized troops can roll south. Therefore, the war in the north also needs support. Now is not a half-time time, but the problem must be solved. As long as the central government and Sichuan can solve my problem, let alone agree to the Sichuan army to go east, it is not difficult to provide some weapons and ammunition." Jiang Li gently buckled his finger on the table, not to mention not being able to pay attention to Liu Xiang's stern face. Generally, this unhappy look can only be achieved by the weak when he looks at the strong. If the Sichuan army can have the combat power and scale of the Northwest Army, Jiang Li will only be humiliated when he comes to Sichuan.
"Is that right? I don't know what kind of support Brother Jiang needs from Sichuan? If Brother can do it, he will naturally not refuse." Seeing Jiang Li give him a step, Liu Xiang naturally took the opportunity. After all, Sichuan and Northwest are not suitable at this time. What's more important is that the equipment of the Sichuan Army is indeed too poor at this time. Liu Xiang has been coveting the weapons of the Northwest Army for a long time.
"It's not just Brother Liu, but also the agreement from Nanjing." Jiang Li looked at Kong Xiangxi again.
"Commander Jiang, please tell me that there will be concerns about the country and the seeds being destroyed every now and then. The whole country should naturally solve the difficulties of each other and unite to fight against the war." Kong Xiangxi also expressed his opinion at this time.
"First, Nanjing has released Zhang Xueliang, and I have promised the Northeast Army. If it cannot be done, it is difficult to make an agreement with the Northeast Army. Besides, Zhang Xueliang was detained in Nanjing, and the Northeast Army's morale was unstable. It is also very unfavorable to the current situation of the War of Resistance."
"Second, you know that the northwest is vast and the population is sparse. Sichuan just happens to be densely populated, and the total population of the entire northwest is not as good as that of Sichuan. Now the northwest is in severe shortage of people. Sichuan also needs some help in replenishing troops. Secondly, the northwest has the only strength in the development of mineral deposits in Sichuan at present. And it can make the best use of the goods. I hope Sichuan can provide comprehensive assistance. Of course, I, Jiang Li, are not a person who only enters and does not leave. As long as Brother Liu nods this head, we will talk about the supplies provided by the northwest to Sichuan later."
"Okay." Liu Xiang nodded without thinking too much.
"Commander, the Central Army fought so hard in Nanjing, I don't believe they can withstand the pressure and let go of Zhang Xueliang. We are a waste of so much military equipment for Liu Xiang." On the way back, Jiang Wenhao complained to Jiang Li, "Liu Xiang really thought his Sichuan Army was a bit capable. As long as our troops took Chengdu, he knew how ridiculous the Sichuan Army he relied on was."
After some dispatch, the direct Northwest Army in northern Sichuan had as many as five divisions, and formed a group of troops. Although there were no tanks, there were still two squadrons of aircraft. Although they were all old-fashioned aircraft, they were considered an extraordinary weapon compared to the Sichuan Army. This is also the reason why Jiang Wenhao didn't like the Sichuan Army very much.
"The central government cannot defeat too badly in Shanghai, at least it cannot allow the Japanese army to attack Nanjing in one breath. I hope the Sichuan army can play a part of the role."
Jiang Li didn't take Jiang Wenhao's complaints too seriously. Although the situation in North China was tense at this time, after the northwest moved the Fengtian Arsenal, after several strengthenings, the planned settlements in the past two years were accumulated, which was not too nervous for a while. Supporting Liu Xiang, if he could hold on in Shanghai for a longer period of time, he gave Liu Xiang 30,000 rifles, more than 20,000 bullets of various types, more than 400 light and heavy machine guns, more than 260 types of mortars, and war defense artillery mountain cannons. It would be worth it to hold back the Japanese army for a while, so that Nanjing would not reappear in history. Such a huge amount of arms provided naturally allowed Liu Xiang to make considerable concessions on the issue of Sichuan. As for Chairman Jiang's eye drop, it would be inevitable.
After all, even if Liu Xiang leaves Sichuan, he is not completely at ease with Jiang. He can strengthen his team. For Liu Xiang, who has always lacked weapons, the temptation provided by Jiang Li is almost irresistible. He just thought that when Liu Xiang put pressure on Nanjing to release Zhang Xueliang because of this batch of arms, Chairman Jiang would have a wonderful expression. But this is not something Jiang Li was considering. If Jiang Li refused to let go, Liu Xiang could not get these arms. Even if Liu Xiang was still willing to accept Nanjing, it would be difficult to guarantee that his subordinates would not have any ideas.
"Seeing a telegram to the commissioner, Sichuan may have some changes." Kong Xiangxi did not expect Jiang Li to do this. The equipment originally promised to give Nanjing was actually given to Liu Xiang because of Nanjing's delay. Liu Xiang asked Liu Xiang to put pressure on Nanjing. The Sichuan Army was originally a huge faction, and the military funded by the northwest made its power even more inflamed. After a brief discussion, Jiang Li left Nanjing and discussed it privately with Liu Xiang. Although Kong Xiangxi learned about it, he had no choice.
"This Jiang Li is really disrespectful to the Central Committee. He wants to break up completely with the Central Committee!" Another young man said indignantly.
