Chapter 23 What Conditions Do You Want?
"Actually, it's very simple, replace me to guard the goal......"
In just ten words, it moved Long Rope Wu. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Huang Haoran: What does this mean? Do you want to change the door and join Long Yun's command?
This thought flashed through Long Rope Wu's mind, but it was quickly abandoned. Because when you think about it, even he thinks it's ridiculous.
How stupid would it be to leave the supreme authority and join Yunnan, which has always been eyed by the central government?
Is Huang Haoran a fool? Definitely not! So, it can only be said otherwise.
"If the environment in Yunnan wants to improve, Chairman Long can only make concessions and abandon Yunnan's retreat policy. After all, it is the period of the Anti-Japanese War, and the system of national discipline and government and warlord melee is completely unworkable now...... However, since I was able to meet Master Long in Yanjin County today, I think the possibility of your Yunnan giving in to the government is very small. Because putting you, a top student of the French military academy, at the forefront, already shows Chairman Long's determination......"
Long Shenwu must admit that Huang Haoran's analysis is accurate. Although the current situation is very unfavorable for Yunnan. Due to the disparity in strength between the two sides, Yunnan could only retreat to the defense in the face of the offensive of the highest authorities. But this still did not shake Long Yun's purported ambition.
The Yunnan-Burma Highway is the main artery of the Wuhan government, so why not be his new blood vessel?
Britain and France have always wanted to get their hands on the minerals and resources in Yunnan, but they have no transportation channels. Now that the road was open to traffic, the British and French garrisons in Vietnam and Burma immediately reached a series of agreements with Long Yun in private. Foreign military instructors joined the Yunnan army with a large number of weapons and equipment.
Because of the Yunnan-Burma Highway, the strength of the Yunnan army has skyrocketed in recent months. And the Central Army, the supreme authority, was constantly depleted on the anti-Japanese front. A new possibility could arise for Long Yun: the supreme government in Wuhan was likely to fall under strong pressure from the Japanese army, and the government in Yunnan could take over power in China under the protection of Britain and France.
Although it now seems that the possibility of such a situation is very small. But for Long Yun, there is still a fatal temptation.
It is absolutely impossible to make concessions, but Yunnan does not have the strength to fight back now, so the current choice is to delay......
"The National War of Resistance is the mainstream. It won't change for a long time...... Although the war in Wuhan was at a disadvantage, we should see that the military strength of the Japanese had been seriously weakened. Even if Wuhan eventually falls, the War of Resistance will enter a phase of stalemate, which is destined to become a protracted war......"
Huang Haoran continued to gush. Long Rope Wu felt that he couldn't be controlled by the other party all the time. You should look for opportunities to show some quality and earn respect for yourself. As a top student of the French military academy, he could not bear to be like a schoolboy who could only listen to lectures.
It just so happened that the word "protracted war" gave Long Shenwu a chance: "General Huang is worthy of being Mr. Jiang Baili's sworn brother, and the theoretical basis of protracted war should come from Mr. Baili's writings, right?" ”
Huang Haoran didn't mind that his speech was interrupted. For the understanding of protracted war, no one in the entire Republic of China will definitely be able to surpass him. It's good to put this credit on Jiang Baili's head. If you are always in the limelight, you will be hated.
"The jade of other mountains is just borrowed and used. If you are lucky enough to bring forth the new, it is a fluke. ”
After a few modest sentences, the topic resumed:
"Let's go ahead and talk about the protracted war... As the name suggests, this kind of combat is a competition with each other for the consumption of national strength. Japan is strong, but the country is small, and China, although weak, is a big country. As long as the rear is stable, although it will be difficult to defeat Japan, it is completely possible to fight a relatively stable situation. Therefore, as long as the pressure on the government is slightly lighter, it will definitely free up its hands to clean up the rear and lay the foundation for a protracted war. Sichuan, has already begun to do ... Yunnan will be the next ......"
Unable to compare with Huang Haoran in terms of knowledge, Long Chengwu decided to show his courage. Speaking of which, he still refuses to admit defeat. It's like his father, Long Yun, the supreme authority that is full of dentures. Long Shenwu couldn't accept that Huang Haoran, who was not a few years older than him, was too far ahead of him in all aspects.
"If we swear to the death and refuse to cooperate, even if the central government wins in the end, I am afraid that it may not be better...... General Huang just said that Japan is China's biggest enemy, and if the supreme authorities really use force against Yunnan, they are not afraid that the Japanese Huang Que will be behind. ”
Facing Long Shenwu's somewhat angry words, Huang Haoran responded with a smile. He reminded Long Shenwu that the Long family seemed to have forgotten one thing, that is, what the people wanted...
Sabotage the War of Resistance is a great sin. This big hat is buttoned down, and the people of Yunnan are still willing to support your Long family, but I am afraid that it will be difficult to say......
"In addition, I also ask Master Long to think about it, why did the highest authorities classify the five counties of Yibin under my name? If my 25th Group Army is completely withdrawn from Changsha to Yibin, which force is the Dian Army ready to send to wrestle with me Huang Haoran? ”
Knowing that he shouldn't be silent at this time, Long Shenwu was still speechless. The destruction of several Japanese army divisions and regiments has given a good explanation of how strong Huang Haoran's troops were. Counting the battles that several members of the Dian army can handle back and forth, I really can't find a suitable role to put opposite Huang Haoran.
In the face of absolute strength, any trick is ineffective.
Long Shenwu's face was full of unwillingness, but there was nothing he could do.
"Fortunately, I am a flexible person and do not want to see any anti-Japanese force being consumed internally, so today, I will come to Yanjin County to propose a mutually acceptable plan to you......
When the time came, Huang Haoran decided to take the last medicine:
"Among the generals of the Central Army, I am the least ambitious. I don't care about the management of Shiojin County...... You can even ask for a batch of letters of appointment from the Wuhan government on your behalf. The official is still the original official, and the person is still the same person. On the surface, they need to follow the orders of the Wuhan government. As for the rice in the pot that I ate in private, I didn't want to ask, and I didn't bother to ask...... But it can be guaranteed that as long as I, Huang Haoran, am in Yibin for a day, no one in the Central Army will dare to meddle in Yanjin County. In this way, the gate of Yunnan Province is not firmly in the hands of your Long family?
This plan is so beautiful that Long Shenwu can't believe it. He had to confirm it again.
"That's what you mean by guarding the gate for my house just now......?"
"Isn't my analogy apt enough......?" The medicine has been given enough dose, and now it is necessary to give the other party some time to digest.
Long Shenwu did not disappoint Huang Haoran, his eyes blinked quickly a few times, and he immediately understood that if Huang Haoran was willing to do this, it would definitely not be free.
"What conditions do you have? Go ahead...... If the asking price is too high, I can't be the master, and I will send a telegram to Kunming ......" (to be continued.) )
