Chapter 115 Differences (Central)

Two days later, there were many military policemen wearing white steel helmets and red epaulettes in Chongqing.

The number of long-nosed box-type military vehicles converted from a one-and-a-half-ton Dodge truck in the United States has suddenly increased. Almost all the special license plates for the army with white characters on the blue background are "Chuan a", "Chuan b", "Chuan c" and "Chuan d". The English letters are all three single numbers such as 0 and 1, 2, and 3, which are very different from the civilian vehicle license plates on the white background. This aroused the interest and heated discussion of a large number of Chongqing people. The news that "Commander-in-Chief Xiao has arrived in our Chongqing" soon spread all over the streets.

A smart person who understands the sequence of military license plates can tell at a glance that a represents the Sichuan Army General Command, b represents the Chongqing Garrison Command, c represents the East Sichuan Military Sub-district, and d represents the South Sichuan Military Sub-district. Now the only license plate number with the Xikang Military Sub-district has not appeared.

On the morning of the third day, the newly built military camp located on the east side of Qixinggang in Yuzhong gathered stars.

Inside and outside the broad and grand military camp, one post at three steps and one whistle at five steps. More than 60 generals wearing brown and green tweed coats followed behind Commander-in-Chief Xiao Yimin, and visited the neat and beautiful military camp with great interest.

Liu Bingxian, commander of Chongqing's garrison and commander of the Second Division, accompanied Xiao Yimin, walked steadily, and kept introducing the situation of the military camp.

Liu Bingxian was much darker and thinner than before. His agile eyes showed a faint melancholy. His beard, which had just been raised on his upper lip, was thick and dense. Although it was very neatly trimmed, it still couldn't hide the sorrow and loss in his heart.

This general who returned angrily after a big fight with Chen Qimei in Japan has not recovered from the huge mental blow.

At 10 o'clock in the morning, the wide conference room under the European arc dome was shrouded in smoke. Xu Xiaogang, the Minister of Military Affairs of the Sichuan Army, who was in charge of the meeting, introduced the current political situation and the situation in the surrounding provinces. Xiao Yimin ordered everyone to discuss at will and speak freely.

Wang Lingji, who was sitting at the lower left of Xiao Yimin, frowned and said nothing. Sun Zhaoluan, the commander of the Southern Sichuan Military Sub-district, who was sitting opposite Wang Lingji, whispered with his deputy Wang Jian. Others such as Liu Dingxun, Deng Xihou, Wei Yi, Yang Sen, and Liu Xiang were also whispering and discussing enthusiastically.

Liu Bingxian, who was sitting on Xiao Yimin's right hand, leaned over and asked in a low voice: "Has Cai Songpo really arrived in Kunming?"

Xiao Yimin nodded: "The news sent from Beijing said that he took the opportunity of an outing and snow-taking approaching the first day of this month. Under the cover of his confidante Xiao Fengxian, he changed into a Japanese kimono, boarded the train and ran to Tianjin, and then took the Japanese "Shandong Maru" to Japan the next day. When he arrived in Japan, he did not forget to send a telegram to Marshal Yuan to ask for leave, and then took a boat to leave Japan. Today is already the 25th. I have estimated the time. He should have arrived in Kunming at this time, and maybe news about him will be heard from Yunnan soon."

Liu Bingxian's eyes suddenly lit up: "This guy must rebel!"

"Yes, I think so too... He did it once a few years ago, and he is very familiar with it." Xiao Yimin said with a smile.

Liu Bingxian suddenly sighed in a low voice:

"I wonder if the Xiao Fengxian, who is praised as having a beautiful appearance, is with General Songpo? If he still stays in Beijing, he will have to suffer."

Xiao Yimin didn't expect that Liu Bingxian was so sentimental and comforted him:

"Don't worry, the little girl who just turned fifteen this year is still in Beijing. I heard that Mr. Yuan had spoken, so no one could make things difficult for Xiao Fengxian."

"That's good!"

Liu Bingxian breathed a sigh of relief: "General Songpo is someone I admire very much, but I have never had the chance to meet him... But if you do as you wish, maybe we will soon become enemies with General Songpo... It's a pity!"

Xiao Yimin was very surprised: "How did you know?"

"Hmph! You can guess it with your butt!"

Liu Bingxian curled his lips and shook his head and said, "You and most generals will never let any army enter our Sichuan, but once General Songpo raises the banner of anti-Yuan, he has to go through our Sichuan Northern Expedition. This happened as early as the anti-Qing war four years ago... Unless the Yunnan Army changes to Guizhou this time, enters Hunan east, and then goes from Hunan north to Wuhan, advances into Henan, and Zhili, they will eventually become enemies with our Sichuan Army."

Xiao Yimin smiled bitterly, and just wanted to say a few words of his opinion, Lu Yixuan, deputy chief of the General Command, walked in with a telegram. Before he could reach Xiao Yimin, he shouted: "Report to Commander, Yunnan has issued a telegram nationwide!"

The whole hall suddenly became silent, and his eyes were all turned to Commander-in-Chief Xiao Yimin.

Because he had expected it, Xiao Yimin was not surprised. He simply read out the telegram of Yunnan's announcement of ** and decided to raise an army to attack Yuan Shikai in public. Then he raised his head and turned to dozens of generals and schoolmen on the left and right and in front. His gaze of consultation slowly flew across everyone's face.

After waiting for a long time, seeing no one speak, Xiao Yimin, who was slightly disappointed, had to lift the telegram in his hand and smiled slightly: "Everyone, judging from this passionate power supply, it is an unstoppable trend for Yunnan to rise up north, and I can conclude that the Yunnan army will definitely enter Sichuan in the name of the northern expedition to protect the country."

When the generals and school nodded frequently when they heard this, they all agreed with Xiao Yimin's analysis.

If the Yunnan Army wants to make an expedition in the north, in addition to Guizhou and Hunan, going north to Sichuan is almost their instinctive choice, and it is also the fastest route. As long as you enter Sichuan, the Yunnan Army will be able to make a decision in peace, whether it is going east to Wuhan or Xi'an, it will be much more comfortable than entering Hunan, which is a tough and has many resistances.

Xiao Yimin put down the telegram and continued:

"Thankfully, today's Sichuan is no longer the Sichuan army of yesterday, and today's Sichuan army is not the Sichuan army of yesterday, and today's Yunnan army is no longer the same as the same-minded and virtuous army four years ago...

"Although the Yunnan Army claims to have 100,000 troops, and with the hard work of Tang Jiyao and the strong support of France and Japan in the past two years, the equipment and training have been greatly improved, half of the troops in the Yunnan Army are distributed in southeastern Yunnan, which are rich in tin and copper and silver mines, as well as the turbulent Chuxiong, Dali, Baoshan and other western Yunnan regions. I believe that only about 30,000 officers and soldiers can go out to the northern Yunnan expedition this time.

"So, I think the Yunnan Army is unlikely to force the entry into Sichuan without any scruples like four years ago, but the so-called 'revolutionary situation' forces them to enter Sichuan, which is a huge contradiction in itself..."

Speaking of this, An Yi coughed lightly, his eyes flashed across the faces of his subordinates, and he said expectantly: "How to deal with the national war that has arrived is a priority for us at present. Please tell us your opinions below... Whether it is right or wrong, as long as it is your true thoughts, you can say it!"

Deng Xihou looked around and stood up first, and made a loud statement:

"I think that Sichuan should announce ** immediately. As long as we announce **, the Yunnan Army will immediately lose the excuse to enter Sichuan. We can also take advantage of the chaos in the two lakes to take down Yichang, the key Yangtze River throat road, to ensure the safety of Sichuan and the steady development of industry and commerce!"

"I agree with General Jin Kang's opinion!"

Liu Dingxun, deputy commander of the Second Division, immediately stood up and strongly supported Deng Xihou.

"I agree!"

Five brigade commanders including Yang Sen and Liu Xiang also stood up one after another.

Wang Lingji, commander of the Eastern Sichuan Military Sub-district, lowered his head and silently turned the Parker golden pen in his hand, unable to see the expression on his face.

When other generals and schools saw that the generals and schools in the East Sichuan Military Sub-district all advocated taking advantage of the chaos to occupy Yichang and expand outward, they couldn't help but look at Wang Lingji, who was highly valued by Xiao Yimin. However, seeing that Wang Lingji did not mean to express his opinion immediately, they tactfully closed their mouths and watched the changes.
