Chapter 957: News Spreads
Xue Boling didn't know what to say about Chairman Jiang, after all, he was his own leader, and no matter what decision he made, he had to obey orders! The local armies are different, especially Li Zongren's Gui army, which fought with Chairman Chiang on the battlefield back then, and later on the battlefield of resistance against Japan, Li Zongren also led his troops to achieve several victories.
"I wonder what General Lee will choose?" Xue Boling asked.
"What choice? What other choice can be made, Chairman Chiang doesn't treat us as his own at all now! As for Liao Fan, I have a good impression of him, although he is young, he still has abilities in all aspects! ”
Li Zongren has been to Taihang Mountain more than once, and he also admires what Liao Fan has done, especially on the issue of resisting Japan, Liao Fan has never been ambiguous! Fight what you should fight, and never compromise with the enemy!
Now Chairman Jiang has made a choice, whether it is forced or active, these people under them, of course, can only find their own way! As for what kind of choice Li Zongren makes, I'm afraid no one can stop him!
"Chairman Jiang also told me that in the next few days, the eldest prince will be sent to Taihang Mountain!" Xue Boling said.
"Oh! It seems that Chairman Chiang has made up his mind! In this case, I have nothing to hesitate, it's time to run to Taihang Mountain again, Liao Fan doesn't know if he can still look at my old bones! ”
"General Li is a blessed general! Everywhere is a lucky general, if he Liao Fan has eyes and does not know Mount Tai, it is his Liao Fan's loss! ”
"I'm also older, no better than before, Chairman Jiang has let go, and I have nothing I can't let go! I also want to find a way out for my brothers! ”
The armed forces will inevitably move toward unified management, regardless of whether they are local units or subordinate units. Although the army is to be unified, there are some officers who must still be used, and their Gui army cannot let their brothers drink the northwest at the last moment.
"Aren't you going to Taihang Mountain? At least bye bye to the pier, and it will not be embarrassing to Liao Fan in the future. Li Zongren asked Xue Boling curiously.
"Me? Worship the pier? Haha" Xue Boling was amused by Li Zongren, "I will naturally go when I should go, now is not the time for me to go, and he Liao Fan is not such a calculating person!" ”
"He's not a calculating person, but I, if I don't go, wait for the eldest prince to go, with all kinds of relationships, the chairman's descendants have a lot of good conditions! No, I'm leaving, and now that I have time, I'll go to Taihang Mountain quickly. ”
Li Zongren said that action is action, he is worried that after the eldest prince goes to Taihang Mountain, things will change, after all, it is not easy to find a master for himself now!
In fact, Liao Fan didn't pay attention to what Chairman Jiang told him! Just when Liao Fan was planning the development of Taihang Mountain, he also got news from Chongqing, which made Liao Fan a little confused.
"He's serious! Even if it's serious, there's no need to be so high-profile! ”
In fact, this matter was not spread by Chairman Chiang, but after the operational meeting was held, some people were already planning for the future, and naturally the news slowly leaked out!
Liao Fan couldn't find someone to discuss what to do about this matter, and Liao Jundong and the others were not in Taihang Mountain. The only person around Liao Fan who can discuss things is Huang Changsheng. But Huang Changsheng has a very good control over the military, but he is a child in politics, which makes Liao Fan very distressed!
"The troops have not yet been controlled, they have already been shelved, the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment!"
It's not a good thing for things to spread suddenly, it's like a thing that hasn't been done yet, and even without a plan, it has been known to people all over the world, which makes Liao Fan very passive!
"Brother Fan, General Li Zongren is here!"
Just when Liao Fan was distressed about this matter, Li Zongren came to Taihang Mountain with his guards.
"General Li is busy with official business, and he has time to come to my Taihang Mountain, which is really brilliant!" Liao Fan hurriedly came out to greet Li Zongren.
"Minister Liao, don't be modest, now the news is spreading faster than you think, I'm so idle, it's also thanks to you!" Li Zongren is also polite to Liao Fan now, after all, Liao Fan may be his boss in the future.
Liao Fan smiled awkwardly, it seems that after the news spread, he was the last person to get the news! It's like you're getting married, your relatives and friends know about it, but you're the last person to know, this situation is really worse than being dumb and eating yellow lotus.
"General Li, don't tease me, I'm worried about this matter, let's go to my headquarters and say!"
Originally, Liao Fan was still worried that no one would discuss this matter, but now that Li Zongren is here, although he is not the best person to discuss, he can also give him some advice, after all, Li Zongren has spent more time in officialdom than Liao Fan.
After arriving at the headquarters, Liao Fan told Li Zongren all his troubles!
"I thought Chairman Jiang was joking on the phone, and such an important matter, how to say it back then, and then the two of them discussed, but I didn't expect Chairman Jiang to do other things inefficiently, this matter is very efficient, I am like being roasted on a fire now!"
Liao Fan was really distressed, he also told Chairman Jiang on the phone that he was not capable of controlling so many troops! However, Chairman Chiang did not listen to it at all, and instead announced the matter as soon as possible.
Li Zongren can be regarded as smoothing out the matter, and the two people only have a verbal agreement on this matter, and no specific agreement has been reached at all, and it seems that the news has been disseminated, which is not Chairman Chiang's original intention.
Regardless of whether the news was spread intentionally or unintentionally, this matter is now directed at Liao Fan, but Li Zongren has also determined that Liao Fan has more than ninety percent chance of being their boss in the future.
"Do you know where I'm from Taihang Mountain?" Li Zongren said.
"Where? Isn't it the old estuary? ”
"I went to Wuhan before I came to you, and I talked to General Xue about something, and when I went to find General Xue, he was called to Chongqing to hold a military meeting, and the people who attended the meeting were all the descendants of Chairman Jiang, do you know what the meeting was about?" Li Zongren decided to tell Liao Fan about the matter.
"Isn't that all there is to it about?" Liao Fan also guessed the content of this meeting.
"Yes, Chairman Jiang was able to tell his descendants about this matter, and as for the spread of this matter, I am afraid that their descendants did it on purpose! No matter what they do, you've been put in this position! Now the local troops and the Eighth Route Army are staring at you closely, and when you make a mistake, someone will jump out, pick a bone in the egg, and then make you stink. ”
Some people hope that Liao Fan will do that position, of course, there are also people who don't want Liao Fan to do that position, for them, before Liao Fan has completely mastered the military power, they still have a chance, the best opportunity is to make Liao Fan stink, even if Chairman Jiang promised to hand over the power to Liao Fan, but those officers of the Central Army would not agree to let themselves accept a person with a bad reputation to command.
"Makes sense!" Liao Fan felt that Li Zongren's analysis was very reasonable.
"In any case, although you do not have military power, but now that you have reached this position, what are you going to do next, but you have to think clearly, China's current situation is very complicated, and every step must be like walking on thin ice." As a person who has come over, Li Zongren knows the current rules better than Liao Fan.
"Don't talk about that, to be honest, I'm here to find you through the back door today!" Li Zongren changed his words and pulled the matter back to his purpose of coming to Taihang Mountain.
"Ahh Pull strings? Liao Fan was confused by Li Zongren.
"You are the future Minister of Defense and the chairman of the Military Council, and the entire country's troops are under your control, and I can't escape from the palm of your hand, so come to the dock in advance, walk through the back door, and at least find a bowl of rice to eat here with you, otherwise I will be so old in the army, and when I am old, I will have to go to the street to ask for food, which is really embarrassing!"
"Don't! General Li, you are really joking, this matter has not been skimmed yet, if you bring me such a high hat now, I am afraid that someone will be beaten to death! ”
Through Li Zongren's analysis, he also understood that after all, some people will have hot eyes. If it is too high-profile at this time, it will inevitably be easy for people to grasp the handle, and some of the things that the Taihang Mountain army did are not very upright.
"What I said is true, Chairman Jiang only held a meeting with his descendants this time, which shows that this matter has marginalized us, if I don't find a better backer at this time, I'm afraid we won't have a foothold in the future!"
This matter was spread, Li Zongren really lost the last hope for Chairman Chiang, originally he still supported Chairman Chiang, but Chairman Chiang is now only seeking the welfare of his descendants, and Li Zongren is also cold.
Liao Fan looked at Li Zongren seriously, Li Zongren didn't look like he was joking.
"General Li, can we wait until this matter is settled?" Liao Fan really doesn't want to ask about this matter and add too much trouble, the current purpose of Taihang Mountain is clear, if he manages so many things, the development of Taihang Mountain will inevitably be delayed.
"Okay, then let's make a verbal agreement, if you Liao Fan really come to that position in the future, can I find a bowl of rice for you to eat?"
"Of course it's no problem, don't talk about a bowl of rice, it's no problem for me to raise you!"
Li Zongren's military ability and political ability are undeniable, and with such people supporting him, Liao Fan naturally avoided a lot of trouble in some matters, and now it is also a good opportunity to win the hearts of the people.
