Chapter 611 The Snowy Plateau

Piao Tianwen       A large army advances north along the left bank of the river valley. The vast army of marches makes this valley, which has been uninhabited for thousands of years, full of vitality. Both sides of the valley are peaks with an altitude of nearly 3,000 meters, dense primitive deep forests, and the places where the army passes are full of laughter and joy.

In order to the needs of the troops entering Tibet, the Ministry of National Defense quickly formed a field hospital with about 200 people. They were airlifted from Chongqing to Mandalay to meet with the army. The director of the field hospital was Chen Yi's wife Zhang Qian, and most of the military doctors in the field hospital were composed of unmarried women, and the medical staff were all unmarried girls. The actions of the Ministry of National Defense were self-evident.[]

When Chen Yi went abroad, he asked the army not to have women, so Zhang Qian and other ladies were placed in Chongqing to work. This time, not only Zhang Qian went to the trip, but also the wife of the officers of the Third Division were also looking for concentration, and they would be sent to southern Tibet in the future. This kind of human relations was obviously done by Mu Yaping.

Chen Yi's troops replaced all vehicles in Mandalay. The troops were difficult to march on the mountain road, so motor vehicles could not be transported. Therefore, all the troops were replaced with mules and horses. The officers of the troops were equipped with a large number of war horses. Considering the British, in order to reduce trouble, it was to avoid the British's sight.

The headquarters ordered the troops entering Tibet not to follow the Impal route in India, but went north along the river valley to reach the grapes, and then enter the southern Tibet region, and the route was closest. The headquarters had no way to do this, to prevent British troops from entering Myanmar, and the British would also prevent the Chinese team from entering India. If you want to enter southern Tibet by road, you must pass through Impal, which is now the territory of India.

Therefore, it is indeed very difficult to enter southern Tibet smoothly, control southern Tibet, and to enter Lhasa to suppress the rebellion, and prevent the British from discovering it. However, the British would not have thought that the Chinese government would send an expeditionary force to enter southern Tibet. The British used the ** as bargaining chips, but in fact the intention was to Myanmar. The British used ** as conditions to try to exchange for Myanmar's interests.

In the Chongqing Ministry of National Defense, Chiang Kai-shek and Mu Yaping were discussing the issue. Chiang Kai-shek said: "The British are making trouble, and they are asking us to urge them to quell the rebellion. Isn't this place without silver? " Mu Yaping smiled and said: "The British made a mistake in their plan. They thought that the route to Tibet was very difficult to go, and now it is rainy season, so the troops may take three months to reach Lhasa."

Lao Jiang smiled and said, "But we don't play according to common sense, the British are just playing in vain." Mu Yaping echoed: "More than 20 days have passed in riots in Lhasa, and we have no movement at all. I think the British will definitely not be able to sit still." As expected, as soon as Mu Yaping finished speaking, a combat adviser reported that the British ambassador urgently asked for a meeting!"

Mu Yaping looked at Lao Jiang meaningfully and said, "I'll meet this British gentleman!" After a while, Mu Yaping's figure appeared in the living room. Both sides shook hands politely, and then Mu Yaping took the initiative to talk about the landing battle in Nanyang. As for the ** thing, it was not mentioned at all, as if nothing had happened.

The "friendly" conversation lasted for half an hour, and the British ambassador couldn't help but say, "General Mu, I want to talk about the ** problem!" "Isn't it just a riot in the Tibetans? What's the fuss?" Mu Yaping seemed to be indifferent. "Isn't the problem simple? The aristocratic class demanded the establishment of the West, which would stump your government to let it go?"

Mu Yaping still said indifferently: "**The troubles of the nobles have happened in all ages, and this is not surprising. Perhaps these nobles think that the emperor is far away. It is difficult for the government to intervene. But now it is during the war. We don't want to intervene, but we just don't have the energy." The British ambassador took the opportunity to say: "If your government has no time to take care of it, our British government can send troops to quell the rebellion, but......."

Mu Yaping interrupted the other party and said, "I appreciate your government's favor. I won't bother your government with this little thing. We can solve it completely. I believe you will see that we all want to see satisfactory results soon, and that is a stable **." The British ambassador didn't know what to sell in Mu Yaping's gourd, so he forced out a few smiles, and his expression was so ugly and ugly.

Walking through the river valley, the river water like blue brocade squirted down from the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau to form a vast momentum. The turbulent river water rolled up the waves, and the clear riverbed could see the bottom of the river at a glance, and the fish in the water were very realistic. Many soldiers stood happily on the river bank, filled the river with kettles, and then went to chase the team.

The female soldiers following the field hospital in the division headquarters were even more excited. Some of them leaned over to wash their faces by the river, while others sang happily. In their consciousness, it seemed that it was not a military operation, but a long-distance trip. At this time, Chen Yi and his wife rode their horses side by side. The wife said: "The temperature is very high now and the humidity is very high. The troops mainly avoid mosquito bites. In addition, there is no sign of other diseases. It seems that they have sufficient preparations in advance and the effect is significant."

Chen Yi smiled and said: "The army itself has been trained in love with the jungle, and the soldiers have developed a habit of prevention. In addition, you join the army and the non-combat reduction in the troops has dropped significantly. Deputy Commander-in-Chief Mu is really heartbroken, and he thought of many details." "That is, before leaving Chongqing, Deputy Commander Mu told me about many common and frequent diseases in plateau areas, especially altitude sickness, how to take measures, etc., and they all explained them in great detail. I even suspected that Deputy Commander Mu had almost lived in **."

Chen Yi was deeply touched and said: "Deputy Commander Mu is really far-sighted and has an unparalleled vision of everything. The letter he asked you to bring to me basically covers the situation of the next few years. How to use military and political means, he made suggestions on building tiles at high houses, especially how to act in a low-key manner, how to deal with the British and puppets. He also provided guidance on experience. In this regard, I am more confident in the journey and future stability!"

Zhang Qian recalled: "Deputy Commander-in-Chief Mu is indeed extraordinary. He gives people the impression that he is a knowledgeable scholar. He can't see the treacherousness of a businessman and the might of a soldier. What kind of person is he? Why does he have many advantages? This is the conclusion I came to after contacting him." Zhang Qian said, and her face appeared blurred.

Chen Yi joked: "Madam, don't forget that you already have a master of famous flowers. Have you fallen in love with Deputy Commander Mu?" "Look at what you said, I admire and admire!" Zhang Qian's face turned red. "Beauties love heroes, Deputy Commander Mu has surpassed the scope of heroes. They can be described as unprecedented and no one after another."

The couple was sighing, and a fast horse ran towards him: "Report to the commander, the front troops called, and they arrived at the grapes successfully. According to the requirements of the headquarters, the vanguard troops received air supplies in the grapes, and then quickly advanced into southern Tibet." Chen Yi said without thinking: "Order the vanguard troops to receive air supplies and set off immediately. The most urgent task is to quickly control southern Tibet and complete military operations before the British noticed it!"

According to the China-US military aid plan, the US government has successively assisted 50 Chinese transport aircraft. While the Chinese Air Force bomber fleet appeared in the blue sky, the transport aircraft fleet also began to travel through the blue sky. The Ministry of National Defense allocated 20 transport aircraft to Ruili Airport to provide air supplies specifically for Chen Yi's army.

Chen Yi led the division headquarters to cross the Naga hills and reach Dawang in southern Tibet. Dawang is a small town in southern Tibet. After the front troops arrived, Dawang's chieftain fled after hearing the news. The Indian troops stationed here also slipped away like rabbits. The vanguard troops left some forces to control southern Tibet, and then led troops to advance north along the Yarlung Zangbo River Valley. They passed through Linzhi, and then advanced towards Lhasa.

The geographical location of Dawang, Lhasa and Linzhi in southern Tibet is exactly the right triangle. Lhasa is at 30 degrees of a right triangle, Dawang is at 60 degrees, while Linzhi is at a right angle. If you go straight from Dawang to Lhasa directly, the distance displayed on the map is the shortest, but the distance of this oblique is not only high altitude, but also has a complex and difficult terrain. Even Tibetans rarely choose this path.

Follow the Yarlung Zangbo River to Linzhi and then advance towards Lhasa. Although the two right angles are far away, the altitude of this route is mostly about 2,000 meters, and it is a traditional Tibetan route, and the time consumed is much faster than walking on the oblique side. After Chen Yi arrived in Dawang, the forward brigade had already arrived in Linzhi.

Chen Yi ordered the vanguard brigade to continue advancing towards Lhasa. It goes without saying that the news of the march might have spread all over the place, and the deterrence effect began to appear. Frankly speaking, the entry of the march into the march means that the riots disappeared, and the aristocrats' army was not enough to be stuck in the gap. The key was the aftermath work.

Therefore, Chen Yi decided to stay in southern Tibet for a while and handle the matters in southern Tibet first. Currently, there are other ethnic minorities such as Tibetans in southern Tibet, and there are also a small number of Indians. First, Chen Yi issued a notice to announce that the southern Tibet region was officially subject to the jurisdiction of the Chinese government. There is no dispute about this. The Chinese government and the British government have reached an agreement on the southern Tibet region, and there will be no legal problems in China.

Then, Chen Yi followed the headquarters orders and ordered the troops to quickly build a reinforced concrete airport near Dawang, at least to meet the take-off and landing of large transport aircraft. At the same time, he had to consult with the Indian government to discuss the border issues between the two sides. These are what Chen Yi must do. In addition, the Northwest Agricultural Company must reclaim land in Dawang and immigrate in the future. The future supply of the Tibetan troops needs to play a role in the southern Tibet.

A sharp rain drifted, and the clouds quickly cleared and the mist dissipated. The air was particularly clear. Chen Yi led the headquarters to set off again. Half a month passed quickly, and the process of entering Lhasa was very easy. The Tibetan army tried to stop it, but it could not resist it at all. Our army was so fierce that it entered Lhasa. The aristocratic class originally expected the British to support it, but the British chose to remain silent.

Officials in the Republic of China who were under house arrest were released and the riots stopped. Then Lhasa temporarily implemented military control. Chen Yi decided to leave a brigade of troops in southern Tibet to serve as defense in southern Tibet, and all the remaining troops entered Tibet.

At this time, Chen Yi and his wife stepped on the war horse and prepared to set off. The wife sighed and said, "I really didn't expect that southern Tibet is so beautiful and rich, and I really can't bear to leave here." Chen Yi said, "We will be stationed in ** in the future. If you like this place, you can travel to southern Tibet at any time."

Chen Yi looked up at the northeast and said affectionately: "In the letter, Deputy Commander Mu said that after defeating Japan, we must vigorously develop southern Tibet. In the future, we must build a railway from Yunnan to southern Tibet, and turn southern Tibet into the pearl of the southern country. I believe that the beautiful scenery depicted by Deputy Commander Mu will definitely be realized!" Chen Yi was energetic and ran forward with confidence with shaking the reins.
