Age of Rebirth

The first thousand and 170 chapters of this matter, let the Japanese know

Compared with Generalissimo Jiang's indifferent and uninterested attitude towards this military conference initiated by the Americans, Tang Qiuli appeared extremely enthusiastic.

On September [-]th, a grand press conference was held at the Spring City Hotel by the Kunming Lake. Long Yun, Chairman of the Yunnan Provincial Government, and Huang Zhixiang, the new Chairman of the Guizhou Provincial Government, attracted the attention of the reporters. Of course, today's protagonist Tang Qiu Li, what attracted the reporters' curiosity even more, were the two giants of the Guangxi Clique, Li Zongren, Chairman of the Guangxi Provincial Government, and Bai Chongxi, Superintendent of Military Affairs of Guangxi Province, who were impressively accompanying Tang Qiuli.

Those who knew the inside story of the Guiyang Battle that ended not long ago couldn't help whispering, "I really can't guess what happened in the world. More than ten days ago, the Guizhou Clique raised tens of thousands of troops and approached Nanning. , the war in Guangxi was about to break out. Although there was no fight, it was reasonable to have a relationship with each other. Who knew that what caught people's attention was that Li Zongren and Bai Chongxi appeared at the press conference, chatting and laughing with Tang Qiuli look, is there a bit of grudge there?"

As the chairman of Yunnan Province, Long Yun's appearance is inevitable. This provincial chairman who was born in the Yi nationality was on the right team at the critical moment. He has a good personal relationship with Tang Qiuli. The new chairman of Guizhou Provincial Government, Huang Zhixiang, is Tang Qiuli. One of Li's generals came to join him naturally, but the appearance of the two giants of the Guangxi family, Li Zongren and Bai Chongxi, has a lot of room for speculation. [

This is the shrewdness of Li Zongren and Bai Chongxi. More than 2000 central troops were outside Guiyang City. In less than a day, they were beaten by Tang Qiuli's troops. Commander-in-chief Liao Huaizheng surrendered, and [-] to [-] soldiers were escorted In Guangzhou, Xu Liejun and his more than [-] men were shot dead on the spot. This shocking news scared Li Zongren and Bai Chongxi into a cold sweat.

Amitabha, the choice at the beginning, now it seems that the decision to order the troops to return the same way is so wise and correct. If Tang Qiuli used the method of dealing with the Central Army and Xu Liejun on the Gui Army, I am afraid we For the two of them, there is only one way to go in exile overseas, and Guangxi has absolutely no way to gain a foothold.

While the two of Li Bai were rejoicing, they were also very grateful to Tang Qiuli for his mercy. Now, on behalf of the government of the Republic of China, he went to Manila to meet with his allies. Before leaving, he held a press conference in Kunming. It's a good opportunity to come to join us, one is to show goodwill, and the other is to take the opportunity to express the position of the Guangxi faction, and it is also a disguised apology for the stupid trick of sending troops to Nanning.

Li Zongren and Bai Chongxi are both veterans who have fought against Chairman Jiang and the old Guangxi faction for decades. They are very shrewd, and their grasp of the situation and opportunities is as good as anyone else. , Simply, go to Kunming to join in the show. If there is no such thing as Nanning, going to one person will be enough.

But at this moment, two people must come together to show sincerity. Besides, isn't Tang Qiuli still the vice chairman of the Military Commission of the Nationalist Government?Theoretically speaking, Li Bai and Li Bai are both his subordinates. The boss is about to go abroad. As a subordinate, it is only natural that he comes to see him off.

Sure enough, Li Bai and Li Bai came hand in hand, and Tang Qiuli gave him a very high standard of reception. He hosted a banquet at the Kunhu Hotel facing the vast blue waves of Kunming Lake for the two giants of the Guangxi family and the chairman of the Yunnan provincial government. Long Yun was accompanied by Huang Zhixiang, the new chairman of the Guizhou provincial government. What reassured Li Bai and Li Bai was that Tang Qiuli didn't mention anything about Nanning during the feast.

This made Li Zongren and Bai Chongxi's uneasy hearts completely settled down, and also avoided embarrassing scenes. Li Zongren had to explain a few words, but Tang Qiuli interrupted with a smile, "Chairman Li, Supervisor Bai, you two have come from afar. , today we only talk about Fengyue, regardless of state affairs, in the future, the war in Burma will rely on the strong support of the two, the war is fought in Burma, and the logistics are in the country!"

At the end of the banquet, Tang Qiuli seemed satisfied and said: "With the development of the war, the center of gravity of the battlefield will gradually move south, and the designated domestic rear base on the Burmese battlefield will complete his historical mission. At that time, Qiuli will return Give a few of you a complete Yunnan and Guangxi," Li Zongren, Bai Chongxi and Long Yun all had bright eyes.

Tang Qiuli's words sent an obvious signal. As the war gradually moved to the South Pacific region, the independent division's center of gravity would also shift overseas. Yunnan and Guangxi, he is not ready to operate, this is too big Good thing, just because of the large amount of money that this independent division invested here during the operation of the three provinces of Yunnan, Guangxi and Guizhou, the industry and commerce in the three southwestern provinces are no longer what they used to be.

For example, what Tang Qiuli took over was a lean horse fed with fine grass and fine materials. The son is as fat as fat, and he is so beautiful in his heart. When dealing with Vice Chairman Tang, he is at ease and will not suffer any disadvantages. He is not like that Jiang who lives in Chongqing. cut meat.

Therefore, the dinner on September [-] was the happiest and most wonderful meal that Long Yun, Li Zongren, and Bai Chongxi ate. Surrounded by several officials from the frontier, Tang Qiuli walked slowly into the press conference At the scene, the reporters present had not seen Tang Qiuli many times, but there were not a few who had never seen him.

Those reporters who saw Tang Qiuli for the first time picked up their cameras and snapped shots, but they murmured in their hearts, "Look at this Vice Chairman Tang, he is handsome, heroic, neat in military uniform, and looks like a soldier. That kind of butcher looks, and there is no trace of violence on his body, there is a special charm in this person, which makes people unable to resist looking for it."

The press conference was personally presided over by Long Yun, Chairman of Yunnan Province. Long Yun felt very honored, his face was flushed, and his voice was loud, announcing loudly: "Mentor reporters, Vice Chairman Tang of the Military Committee of the National Government, is going to Manila to join the Allied Forces The press conference of the Supreme Military Council is officially starting now, and the reporters are invited to ask questions freely."

As soon as Long Yun finished speaking, a young female reporter stood up from below. She was just young, dressed fashionable, and exuded a charming aura. She was beautiful and had a nice voice. Going to Manila to attend the Supreme Allied Military Conference, what is the specific content of the discussion? Can you disclose some in advance?"

Tang Qiuli nodded with a smile, and said: "I am very willing to answer the reporter's question. As we all know, the most unstable and dangerous factor in Southeast Asia and the South Pacific region is the Japanese invaders. There are hundreds of thousands of soldiers in Burma. , will attack northern Myanmar and the Indochina Peninsula at any time, thus threatening the security of our southern border."

"Since the Japanese army can attack our country's borders in the north, they will also go south to attack any place, because this is the aggressive nature of the Japanese. Therefore, the core topic of this meeting is not to prevent problems before they happen, and to cooperate with the Allied forces. The generals on the other side will discuss the specific strategy to completely eliminate the unstable and dangerous factors in the region. As for the details, please forgive me, this is a military secret and it is not convenient to disclose it.”

Chief of Staff Yang Ketian, who was taking care of the situation in the audience, couldn't help laughing secretly, "Master, you can joke too much. What you said just now is equivalent to saying how to beat the Japanese together with the Americans. Specifically, how did you beat that old Ito?" The devil’s question, what other details should not be disclosed, this sentence was disclosed by the reporters, not only the Americans shouted wronged, but the Japanese were also very angry, they must scold the Yankees for double-decker, it’s not a thing, and the Japanese are making money here They conspired with the Chinese over there to get their hands behind their backs.”

Sure enough, Tang Qiuli's words aroused the great curiosity of the reporters. Some reporters asked: "Vice Chairman Tang, in your heart, is it beneficial to the overall deployment of the Burma campaign? Meeting with the allied generals in Manila After that, military action will be taken against the Japanese army?"

Tang Qiuli used military secrets as an excuse and never talked about the details. He just said, "My friends from the press, when the time comes, you are welcome to go to the front line of Burma for interviews. Our North China Independent Division will give you the most extensive press freedom. You can go wherever you want," the more this is the case, the more it evokes the limited imagination of the reporters. [

During this period, there were also discordant voices. A reporter from the Central News Agency asked: "May I ask Vice Chairman Tang, whether the shooting of Xu Liejun, the former chairman of the Guizhou Provincial Government, that happened in Guiyang a few days ago has not been tried by a military court. ? Did your subordinates massacre more than [-] of his subordinates?"

Tang Qiuli's smiling face, which was originally blown by the spring breeze, suddenly turned cold. His knife-like eyes glanced at the reporter from the Central News Agency. Murderous, enough to infiltrate people, no wonder it is rumored that this young vice chairman is kind on the surface, but he is a bloodthirsty person in his heart."

However, since the question was asked, the reporter bit the bullet and stared at Tang Qiuli to see how he answered his question. Tang Qiuli said: "The only topic of today's press conference is that Tang is about to go to Manila. Allied generals met, since this reporter friend mentioned this issue, everyone here must be very curious, right?"

"Okay, I'll just say a few more words. I think everyone has read my telegram. No need to explain. Xu Liejun, who was in our independent division and was in a bloody battle with the Japanese army in Burma, brazenly attacked my rear base. Killing nearly [-] defenders of our independent division in Guiyang, we fought against the Japanese invaders in the front, and Xu Liejun killed our soldiers in the rear and attacked our base.

"Our army dispatched troops to suppress the rebellion, captured the chief villain, Xu Liejun, and shot him immediately. This is my usual practice against traitors. It is also implemented in accordance with the provisions listed in the Wartime Punishment of Traitors promulgated by the Military Commission of the Nationalist Government in 1. Xu Liejun's behavior , the world knows, is there still a need for a trial? This kind of treacherous and evil person, living in the world for one minute, is a danger to the country, and it is a happy move to get rid of it as soon as possible. This reporter friend, why is there such a thing? This question?"
