The most cattle cottage in the Anti-Japanese War

Chapter 997

On this day, Gao Jiu and the others did not fly directly to Taohua Mountain after refueling in Chongqing, but came to Yichang City and met with Commander Yang.

Gao Jiu came to Commander Yang this time and had an important matter to discuss with him.The war of resistance will be over in a few months.

Gao Jiu suggested that Commander Yang retreat bravely. Commander Yang has been in the ups and downs of his career for decades, and he is unwilling to be used as a gun by others. He has long thought of self-protection.He trusted Gao Jiu very much and promised to seriously consider Gao Jiu's suggestion.

After Gao Jiu met with Commander Yang, he stayed in Yichang for one night, and the next day everyone continued to fly to Taohuashan.

When they arrived in Zhengzhou City, Gao Jiu also had an in-depth meeting with Wang Jindong, asking him to consider the way out for the future.

The 41st Corps has been hanging alone behind the enemy, and their development and growth have been suspected by the above.The main force of the 41st Corps was transferred away, which was a warning signal.Wang Jindong also had the idea of ​​finding a way out for a long time. After the two talked, they reached a secret agreement.

Finally, Gao Jiu and the others came to Peach Blossom Mountain.

Zhang Quan, Du Shengxi and others have now left Taohua Mountain and are fighting against the Japanese army outside the pass. Feng Xiucai, Geng Hua and others who stayed at home grandly welcomed Gao Jiu and others.

Looking at the welcoming crowd in front of him, Gao Jiu suddenly remembered the expectant eyes of everyone when he left the cottage with a small team and came back.

At that time, the conditions in the cottage were very poor, but the emotions between people were so sincere.

Nowadays, there are many welcome crowds and the scene is very grand, but some of them have lost the charm of the past.

The next day, everyone climbed to the top of the mountain to watch the peach blossoms.Peach Blossom Mountain originally had a large number of peach trees, and later the guerrillas planted many more. The entire Peach Blossom Mountain slopes are all covered with peach trees.

At this moment, it is in the flowering period, and the beautiful peach blossoms are competing to bloom, forming a sea of ​​flowers.

It was the first time for Mary to see such a spectacular scene, and she exclaimed excitedly: "Oh, my god. Mr. Gao, it is so romantic that you are fighting in such a poetic place."

Here, too, only a newcomer like Mary would think so.

Everyone has experienced the bloody years of Taohua Mountain. How much effort has been concentrated in this piece of peach blossom, and how many guerrillas have paid the price of their lives for this?

At this moment, Gao Jiu suddenly had the feeling that he wanted to stay in Peach Blossom Mountain forever.But it was only at this moment that he knew that Taohuashan would be abandoned sooner or later, and because of this, he couldn't help but feel a little melancholy.

Gao Jiu's visit this time was not just for admiring the sea of ​​flowers, he had already made up his mind to get the guerrillas here ready to abandon Peach Blossom Mountain and retreat to the Golden Triangle.Now is the period of the Anti-Japanese War. Gao Jiu, Guofu and the underground party all have common interests, but once the Japanese army surrenders, the contradictions between them will be revealed.By that time, the existence of Peach Blossom Mountain would be difficult for them to accept.

Gao Jiu didn't want to go to that step.He hoped that all personnel would be completely relocated to the Golden Triangle before the victory of the Anti-Japanese War.

That night, Gao Jiu came to Feng Xiucai's home alone.

He said: "Uncle Feng, Sanniang, your children are almost five years old now, it's time to send them to the Golden Triangle to go to kindergarten. The conditions here are too bad, we can't delay the children."

Although Gao Jiu has already invested quite a lot of money in Taohuashan, the population here is too small, and the conditions in all aspects are still difficult to improve, especially in terms of education.Due to the lack of scale, the conditions are relatively backward.

In the Golden Triangle, children go to kindergarten from an early age, then to preschool, and then to elementary school.A large number of educational resources are gathered here, and it can be said that the teaching conditions are quite superior.

When Feng Xiucai and Wang Sanniang heard what Gao Jiu said, they knew what he meant, and they still wanted to mobilize them to go to the Golden Triangle.They all know that Gao Jiu is sincere, but too much of their hard work has been condensed here.

Feng Xiucai said: "Master Jiu, I am old and I don't have any extravagant hopes. I just want to retire here. Can I not go to the Golden Triangle? When the children reach the age of school, I can send them there. I want to bury the old bones under the peach tree on the mountain in the future, and I will be satisfied for a lifetime."

Gao Jiu came back this time and listened to Geng Hua's report, knowing that many people here had the same idea as Feng Xiucai.

Zhang Quan and Du Shengxi also thought the same way, Gao Jiu felt very headache about this.

Seeing Feng Xiucai's attitude, he knew that it might be difficult to convince him for a while, so he left.

The next day, Gao Jiu, Wang Zhankui, Guo Hengming, Tian Chuan and others discussed how to persuade these people.

Wang Zhankui and others said that they would also talk to the brothers who stayed in Taohuashan, and try to persuade them as much as possible. If it is not possible, they will hold a meeting after all the leaders of Taohua have gathered to make a final decision .If someone is really unwilling to leave Peach Blossom Mountain, that is their own choice.

As long as the guerrillas do their utmost to benevolent and righteous, they can be regarded as worthy of these brothers.

Since he failed to achieve his goal of persuading the brothers to leave Peach Blossom Mountain, Gao Jiu felt a little sad.He stayed in Peach Blossom Mountain for two days before planning to leave.

The head of the underground party, Gao Hong and others heard that Gao Jiu had returned to Peach Blossom Mountain and flew to meet him.Gao Jiu told them about the situation in Taohuashan and asked them to make a guarantee that they would not embarrass the brothers who stayed in Taohuashan in the future.

The person in charge of the underground party and Gao Hong and others made a pledge.Gao Jiu knew that they were sincere, but they didn't know the future development after all.In the future, it is impossible to accommodate the existence of a paradise like Peach Blossom Mountain.

The brothers of the Peach Blossom Mountain guerrillas were used to staying in this mountain, and it was impossible for them to integrate into the society outside the mountain, and fierce conflicts would definitely occur later.Thinking of this, Gao Jiu was still in a bad mood.But he has done his best, and he can only take one step at a time.

Mary is a straightforward woman, but she cares very much about Gao Jiu and pays close attention to him, so she can feel Gao Jiu's mood is a bit depressed.Even though she couldn't figure out why Gao Jiu was unhappy, she also tried her best to accompany Gao Jiu and try to make him happy.

Seeing the enthusiastic and unrestrained Mary's careful look, Gao Jiu couldn't help being moved.

He knew that Mary was sincere to him. Over the years, in order to get his love, he had suffered so much, and he couldn't help but feel a little guilty.Originally, he had already decided not to accept other women, but at this moment his heart was a little shaken.

However, Gao Jiu still maintained his rationality, and he had to think about this matter carefully.

Gao Jiu was very concerned about the safety of Zhang Quan, Du Shengxi and others, so he sent them a telegram asking them about the situation there.

Zhang Quan, Du Shengxi and others fought against the Japanese army there. They often went to sneak attack the Japanese army, but the Japanese army just pretended to be deaf and dumb. No matter how provocative they were, the Japanese army just repelled them and did not attack the base area.

The Kwantung Army has already made up its mind to strictly guard the current line of defense between the enemy and us, and will neither take the initiative to attack the guerrillas nor allow the guerrillas to continue to expand their base areas.

Zhang Quan and others felt very bored, and they also had the idea of ​​​​wanting to withdraw to Taohuashan.

But it is not so easy for them to come back, because their helicopters have problems.

These helicopters were produced in the United States, and the materials they used were more suitable for the local climate. When the helicopters arrived in the extremely cold environment outside the customs, many failures would occur during use.

Not to mention anything else, it is very difficult just to start the engine.During this period of time, helicopters broke down one after another, and now basically none of them can be used.

Gao Jiu originally wanted to wait for Zhang Quan, Du Shengxi and others to come back, so that everyone could meet and hold a meeting to discuss it.Seeing this situation, I had to give up and wait until the future.

He sent a telegram to Zhang Quan and others, telling them to take care of themselves, not to take risks, and withdraw to Taohuashan as soon as possible.In the end, they left Taohua Mountain with everyone and returned to the Golden Triangle.

Not long after returning to the Golden Triangle, Gao Jiu heard bad news.

This time the trouble came not from the Japanese, but from the British.No permanent friends, only permanent interests.The Allied forces have gained an absolute advantage on the battlefield, Germany, Italy, and Japan are about to perish, and all parties participating in the war have begun to consider their post-war interests.

The first thing the British thought of was how to restore their pre-war colonies.South Asia is one of the most important colonies of the United Kingdom. They have started to lay out their plans now, so it is inevitable that there will be conflicts of interest with the Golden Triangle.

Gao Jiu's family members are very smart, they know that they must have an independent career.So after giving birth, she will soon return to work, and the same is true for Long Guobi.

She is mainly responsible for dealing with the British.Not long after Gao Jiu had just returned to the Golden Triangle, she reported to Gao Jiu something about the British people making trouble for the Golden Triangle.

The person who came to see Long Guobi was the Director of Transportation of the Kokang Self-Government Committee.He said that the British suddenly charged 10% more tolls on the railway from Yangon to Lao Cai.This move will increase the transportation cost of goods entering and leaving the Kokang area, and they will have to increase the transportation cost of goods entering and leaving the Golden Triangle as a last resort.

Long Guobi was very serious about things, she didn't report the matter to Gao Jiu immediately, but found out the ins and outs of the matter through various relationships.It turned out that a new tax supervisor was sent from the British mainland. The British side has always been very dissatisfied with the fact that the Kokang Self-Government Committee has broken away from the rule of the British Governor's Palace.In the past, they were beaten by the Japanese army, and it was difficult to protect themselves, and they were powerless to prevent Kokang from leaving the Self-Government Committee from their rule.

Seeing that the war is coming to an end now, they have regained their strength, and they have regained the idea of ​​regaining control of the Kokang area.

The new Financial Inspector is going to start with the economic sanctions on the Kokang Autonomous Region and strengthen the control of the Kokang Region, paving the way for it to be reintroduced into the rule of the British Governor-General in the future.

Long Guobi was very angry after hearing this.

You must know that over the years, without the support of the Golden Triangle, they would have been completely driven out of Myanmar by the Japanese army. Even the railway connecting Yangon, the Kokang Self-Government Committee, and the Golden Triangle was mainly built by the Golden Triangle.

Now that the British have recovered their breath, they dare to attack the Kokang area. In fact, they are targeting the Golden Triangle in a disguised form.

It's no wonder that most of the area of ​​the Golden Triangle was originally ruled by the British in name. At that time, it was a barren land, and the British were unable to rule there. Now that it is so prosperous here, of course they want to conquer it. Golden triangle idea.The British side has already formulated a corresponding plan, and is ready to wait until the Japanese surrender, and put the main target on the Golden Triangle, hoping to finally control the Golden Triangle in the hands of the British.

The British military has already formulated a plan to deploy troops from Europe to Southeast Asia. They plan to use the economic blockade as a forerunner, and then carry out political persuasion. If it is not possible, they will seize the Golden Triangle by force.

The British Governor in Burma knew about this matter.Over the years, he has a certain friendship with Gao Jiu, but if he doesn't follow the instructions of the above, he will not be able to be the governor.

Besides, he is also an arrogant British guy. In the face of interests, the so-called friendship is worthless at all.Therefore, he pretended not to know the methods adopted by the new financial and taxation supervisor, and also wanted to test the reaction of the Kokang area and the Golden Triangle.

They want to adopt the method of cutting sausages. If the Golden Triangle and the Kokang area hold back, they will push forward and erode the interests of the Golden Triangle and the Kokang area step by step.

After Long Guobi found out about this matter, she was about to report to Gao Jiu when Long Yingyuan also came to the Golden Triangle.

He found his sister first, reflecting the same thing.

He said: "The Burma Highway leading to Yunnan was also exploited by the British to increase tolls, which not only directly affected the interests of the transportation company controlled by Long Yingyuan, but also the interests of Yunnan as a whole."

After talking for a while, the siblings came to find Gao Jiu.

Gao Jiu was not surprised by this.Whether it's them or the Yankees, they're all the same.These guys are not very good. When you are useful to them, you will give you a smile, but it will not affect their secret calculations. Once they are sure that they can bully you, he will never be soft.
