Chapter 440: Chiang Kai-shek's Countermeasures

Just when the Reading Division was promoted to a strategic force directly under the Central Military Commission of [***], which was far away in Yan'an. Chiang Kai-shek, China's supreme ruler in Chongqing, also sat in his seat. Frowning, looking at the few telegrams in his hand over and over again... At the same time, several of Chiang Kai-shek's henchmen, Bai Chongxi, Dai Li, He Yingqin, and Chen Cheng, sat in Chiang Kai-shek's office, with their heads down, motionless..."Niang Xipi, Yu Nong, is the telegram sent by Liu Hua, the commander of the reading division, true, are they really surnamed the two main divisions of the Quanannihilation Army at one time, and the captured one will eventually be the regiment commander and the two major general brigade commanders?" "Although this question has been asked no less than three times. However, at this moment, Chiang Kai-shek, who was shocked and helpless, still asked again...

"Yes, principal, after verification, the content of the telegram sent by Liu Hua, the teacher of the reading teacher, is all true. The 14th Division and the 109th Division of the Army were completely annihilated by the Eighth Route Army in less than a week..."Dai Li quickly stood up and said respectfully..."What does your intelligence department do to eat, why did such a big thing happen in Shanxi Province, your intelligence department only found out afterwards... Also, the two assistant divisions of the Annihilation Army must need to carry out large-scale military movements, why didn't you notice it at all... What's the use of the state spending so much money to keep you waste..."Finally, after a few minutes of silence in the entire office. Chiang Kai-shek, the chairman of the committee, who was sitting in front of a few people, finally began to scold... Facing the dean who was sitting in front of him and constantly spitting at himself, the head of the extremely party-state sat there motionless. I was afraid that a small action of my own would arouse the dissatisfaction of Chiang Kai-shek, who was in anger in front of him..."cough..."Finally, after a burst of scolding, a coughing sound reached the ears of several people, and Chiang Kai-shek, who had been scolding for two minutes, had to stop because of coughing, picked up the glass in front of him, and gently drank a sip of boiled water... As Chiang Kai-shek's most trusted student, Chen Cheng hurriedly seized this favorable opportunity to stand up.

"Arrogant, you must pay attention to your body. You must know that your body is related to the uncle of the party-state, and to the life and death of the Chinese nation..."Chen Cheng said with a flattering face.

Maybe it was because of Chen Cheng's words, after drinking the water, Chiang Kai-shek's face looked a lot better. However, a pair of eyes were still like a needle, piercing the body of Dai Lisa in front of him: "Yu Nong, corresponding to the intelligence problem of the [***] reading power master, I remember, you are not the first to have a problem... If you don't have confidence in yourself, I believe that there are people who have been talented... It's been so long, hasn't your intelligence department detected a single bit of information about the reader? ”

"Report to the commission, the humble position has failed your high expectations, please appoint the commission to punish... This is a piece of information that has been compiled by our intelligence agents lurking in Shanxi Province after almost a month of investigation, and I would like to ask you to take a look at it..."Looking at Chiang Kai-shek's eyes that were almost capable of killing, Dai Li quickly stood up and replied. At the same time, he took out a document from a folder he carried with him and handed it to Chiang Kai-shek..."I don't want to see these things now, so you can read them to all of us, so that everyone can listen to them, how long has it been for this reader to liberate the whole of Shanxi Province from his own hands." Listen to this reader, after half a year of development, to what extent has it grown..."Chiang Kai-shek waved his hand and said.

"Yes, Chairman... After statistics, at present, the Reading Division has completely controlled the entire Shanxi Province, and after the victory of the two assistant divisions of the Annihilation Army, the prestige of the Reading Division among the people of Shanxi Province has far exceeded the morale of Yan Xishan's rule at the beginning, and the most important thing is that after the Eighth Route Army occupied Shanxi Province, it began to carry out large-scale land reform, and divided the land equally among the ordinary people, which was absolutely supported by the local people... Now it is safe to say that the Eighth Route Army has now become the new king of Shanxi..."Looking at Chiang Kai-shek, whose face was getting more and more ugly in front of him, Dai Li whispered..."Niang Xipi, [***] people can really stir people's hearts, it has only been less than half a year, and the prestige in the hearts of the common people has surpassed Yan Xishan's Jin Sui Army... If this is the case, sooner or later [***] will become our mortal enemy... Yu Nong, keep reading, what I want to know most now is the current military strength of the Reading Force... As long as they don't have strong enough military strength, even if they have prestige in the hearts of the common people, they can't stop the million-strong army of [***]...."While shocked, Chiang Kai-shek continued to ask.

"Yes, commission... According to preliminary statistics, at present, all the regular troops under the jurisdiction of the Reading Division have been erected, and the scale has reached as many as 150,000 people, including infantry, artillery, cavalry, air defense, armored troops, engineers... Among them, there are four heavy artillery regiments, three artillery regiments, one armored brigade, one cavalry brigade, one air defense brigade... In terms of overall strength, it has far surpassed one of our [***] most elite group armies..."Dai Lian replied in a low voice..."Smack... Bang..."Hearing Dai Li's answer, Hao I slapped the table in front of him suddenly, and in an instant, a glass placed on the edge of the table fell without warning and turned into a pile of debris... And the four people sitting in front of Chiang Kai-shek looked at Chiang Kai-shek with angry faces. Almost at the same time, stood up from the seat ....

"Mother Xipi....who gave them the right to expand their army... [***] people, no matter when, are the most unreliable....I really didn't expect that a frustration at that time gave [***] such a good opportunity. A whole group army is twice as much as the total strength of the Red Army in the Soviet zone at the beginning...."Chiang Kai-shek ignored the glass that had fallen to the ground and had broken to pieces, and began to curse at the three in front of him..."Although you can tell me, how many [***] troops there are now. I think that at the beginning, the Reading Division only had an infantry brigade with a strength of less than 6,000 people, and now it has become a well-equipped army of 150,000, so what about the other Eighth Route Army troops? How many people have they developed to now, and if they continue to develop like this, they will not drive out the little devils, and [***] will become the biggest enemy they have ever been..."Looking at the few people in front of them who didn't say a word. Chiang Kai-shek glanced at the three convincing people in front of him fiercely, and asked with a serious face..."Report to the principal..."Perhaps seeing Chairman Chiang in front of him, who was about to kill at any time, Dai Lian immediately made a small change in his title. Because as long as the officers of the national government know that Chiang Kai-shek is also the principal of the Whampoa Military Academy, and one of his favorite things is to listen to his students and call himself the principal in front of everyone. Because of this, it will make him feel very gratified... Sure enough, just as the word principal came out of Dai Li's mouth, Chiang Kai-shek, whose face was full of anger, moved the corners of his mouth obviously..."Yunong, if there is any situation, report it immediately." As a Whampoa soldier, you must have the appearance of an officer..."Chiang Kai-shek slowly eased down in anticipation, and said to Dai Li, who wanted to speak in front of him..."Report to the principal, what I want to repay is that our military commanders have expanded the Eighth Route Army troops scattered throughout North China in the past few years... According to the information sent back by intelligence officers from various places. At present, after several years of development, the regular forces of the three main divisions of the Eighth Route Army have been expanded by at least five times in size, reaching an astonishing strength of more than 200,000 troops. However, compared with reading history, they have a very obvious weakness, that is, the troops have hardly experienced any large army battles, lack of heavy weapons in the eyes of the troops, and have no experience in attacking tough battles... Therefore, Bian Yu only thinks that in the entire Eighth Route Army, the other three main divisions do not have a particularly great impact on me [***]. However, the reader has a very great influence, and we must prepare for this in advance..."Dai Li looked at Chiang Kai-shek's face in front of him, and analyzed in a low voice..."Well, Yunong, you sit down first, resign, what do you think of the current combat effectiveness of the Eighth Route Army..."Chiang Kai-shek nodded very gratifying at Dai Li's answer and analysis. Then, he shifted his gaze to his confidant Chen Cheng, hoping that Chen Cheng would also be able to say a reason.

"Report to the principal, I very much agree with Brother Yu Nong's analysis. I also think that in addition to putting the army in the first place, I also need to put [***] in an important position, especially the reader of the [***] leadership... This unit has a large number of engineering artillery, even armored units and a large number of anti-aircraft weapons, and has experienced many large army battles. If nothing else, in the future, it must be the only unit of the Eighth Route Army that can compete head-on with our army..."

"Well, that's good... Respectfully, you are the patriarch of our party-state, tell me what you think in your heart..."Chiang Kai-shek nodded and looked at He Yingqin at the end..."I very much agree with what the chairman said, Ci Xiu and Yu Nong. However, what I want to say is that we [***], for the time being, we are in the Eighth Route Army, and we [***] cannot turn our faces with the Eighth Route Army for the time being. I think everyone knows that after a series of battles such as the Battle of Wuhan and the Battle of Xuzhou, the [***] army of more than one million can be said to have suffered heavy losses. However, the army of several divisions and regiments showed a scorching posture and could launch a new round of attacks at any time... However, I [***] have an army of more than a million people, and I urgently need a lot of time to rest... And at this time, we need to be provided to us by the Eighth Route Army, which is far away in North China. The old and spicy He Yingqin analyzed at Chiang Kai-shek, whose brows had just stretched in front of him..."Niang Xipi, [***] is desperately expanding the army, and the little devil is scorching more than people, this is simply forcing our party-state to die... Jingzhi, you go on..."Hearing He Yingqin's words, Chiang Kai-shek couldn't help frowning again, clenched his fists, and said fiercely..."Yes, chairman... The revolutionary plot report department investigated and learned that in order to open up the passage to the south and eliminate the reading division of the Eighth Route Army that occupied Taiyuan, the revolutionary plot department learned that in order to open up the passage to the south and eliminate the reading division of the Eighth Route Army that occupied Taiyuan, it had transferred two field divisions from the southern Zhutun Army to merge into the Zhutun Army. More importantly, this time, the Yue Army once again lost two field divisions, and there was another shortage of troops in the North China Garrison Army....In order for the North China Garrison Army to have sufficient strength to confront the Eighth Route Army, it was necessary to increase its troops in the country. If this is the case, there will also be one or two more divisions and regiments on their backs. If this is the case, then the army will not be able to launch a new round of offensive for the time being, and our army can also carry out a long period of rectification and replenishment to restore its combat effectiveness..." However, the Eighth Route Army continued to develop in the rear of the army, and sooner or later, their strength would become stronger, especially the Eighth Route Army's reading division. So, no matter what, we must find a way to curb their development..."Chiang Kai-shek nodded approvingly, and then continued to ask to the henchmen in front of him..."The president and chairman of the committee are wise, we must find a way to curb the development of the Eighth Route Army..."The three replied in unison.

"Well, then, what do you think we can do at present to curb the development of the Eighth Route Army, especially the Reading Division of the Eighth Route Army?" Chiang Kai-shek nodded and asked helplessly..."The chairman of the report committee believes that in the current situation, it is absolutely impossible to use military oppression to oppress it. After all, the Eighth Route Army's Reading Force Division has strong military strength and very strong combat effectiveness. Before the army is defeated, military force must not be used, otherwise, the ultimate benefit must be the little devil who is eyeing the tiger..."He Yingqin also looked helpless..."Now that the Eighth Route Army has such a strong military strength, in this situation of internal and external difficulties, if the military is used, then we [***], will become the sinners of the entire nation, this I absolutely agree with the words of respect... Since we can't use the military, we have to use other methods. Think about it again, is there any other way? In a word, we must not let the Eighth Route Army's reading division continue to develop unscrupulously..."Chiang Kai-shek said with certainty..."Principal, the student has an idea, I don't know whether to say it or not..."As soon as Chiang Kai-shek's words were finished, Chen Cheng immediately stood up and said to Chiang Kai-shek in front of him..."Cixiu, don't be so restrained, there are no outsiders here now, even if you say it wrong, it's nothing." I know that you are all for the future of the party-state, and if you have any ideas, say them..."Looking at Chen Cheng, the restrained love general in front of him, Chiang Kai-shek nodded with satisfaction and comforted..."Yes, principal. I don't think we can use force to solve the problem of the reader... However, this time, the Reading Division completely annihilated the two main divisions of the Yue Army, and captured a lieutenant general division commander, at this moment, the Reading Force Division must have become the number one strong enemy of the Yue Army. And we can take advantage of this trend to promote the senior year, especially internationally. Let the book not be able to raise its head in the international arena, and all the targets in the military and domestic countries will be aimed at the reading force who is in the limelight at this time. I think that under the international situation and the oppression of all walks of life, the army will also turn its guns, concentrate its forces first, and clean up the reading force division in Shanxi Province..."Chen Cheng replied with an affirmative face..."Okay, you are worthy of being the best soldier of my Whampoa Military Academy, quit, your political literacy is getting higher and higher, and you actually know how to use the pressure of international public opinion. Yes, very much improved. I couldn't agree more with you. In this way, I will leave it all to you to handle this matter. After the meeting is dismissed, you will hold a press conference, invite all the reporters who can be invited, and carry out a large-scale publicity, so that this reader can make a good show..."Chiang Kai-shek nodded with satisfaction and said.

"Yes, Headmaster, the students will definitely live up to your expectations and complete this task..."Chen Cheng saluted and replied loudly.

"Yunong, you are in charge of intelligence, do you have any ideas?" Chen Cheng nodded with satisfaction with a confident face. Chiang Kai-shek shifted his gaze to Dai Li, who was beside him..."Report to the principal, I am thinking about a problem. The regular armed forces of the Reading Force Division have an army of 150,000 troops, so their usual supplies must be a very huge amount, especially the cotton that Shanxi Province does not plant....My one thing is to adopt an economic blockade against Shanxi Province to prevent a pound of cotton from being produced in the national control area, especially those strategic materials that Shanxi Province does not produce, to flow into Shanxi Province. I think, without these strategic materials, no matter how strong the combat effectiveness of the Reading Division is, and no matter how many troops there are, there is not much threat to [***]..."In Chiang Kai-shek's expectant eyes, Dai Lian said what he thought in his heart..."Very good, as the so-called three stinkers are worth one Zhuge Liang, you see, just now it was still a very complicated world, and the four of us got along with so many ways to get along with it just like this....Now I order." With a solution, Chiang Kai-shek at this moment can be said to have a relaxed face, and said loudly to the three henchmen in front of him.

"Ci Xiu, you are responsible for publicizing a large number of fighters of the Eighth Route Army's Reading Divisions at home and even internationally, striving for the Reading Divisions to become a model of domestic resistance and pushing them to the peak of the Anti-Japanese War... Jingzhi, you are in charge of the economic blockade that Yu Nong just proposed, from now on, not a single grain of strategic materials in the national control area can enter the control of the Eighth Route Army... Yunong, your intelligence department must pay close attention to the infiltration of various departments of the Eighth Route Army, especially the infiltration of the Reading Division of the Eighth Route Army. I don't want the next time the Eighth Route Army reports the results of the battle to me, our intelligence department has not received any news. Chiang Kai-shek ordered.

"Yes, Headmaster, Chairman," the three of them replied loudly.
