Chapter 870 If you dare to set a fire, I will light a lamp (3)

In the early hours of the morning, everything was silent. The study room on the second floor of the Generalissimo's official residence located in the Nanchang Camp was still lighted. After swearing, Chiang Kai-shek sat on a wicker chair, his anger still lingering, his gloomy face tightened.

The pale lips were still tightly closed in pain.

The two assistant secretaries, whose faces were pale and their hearts were pounding, at Wang Shihe's signal, bit the bullet and quickly picked up the emergency telegram from Peking and the urgent inquiry letters from diplomatic officials from Europe and the United States that had been thrown all over the floor by Chiang Kai-shek. They woke up from bed more than half an hour ago.

Soong Meiling was wearing a coat and stood beside Chiang Kai-shek's desk with a worried look on her face, speaking comfortingly.

Seeing the attendants clearing the ground and quietly retreating, Song Meiling asked Wang Shihe to get a glass of water, took two steps lightly, moved to Chiang Kai-shek, and advised worriedly:

"Darling, since this has happened, the right way is to find a way to remedy it as soon as possible. You can't lose your temper anymore. Recently, your total sleep time is less than five hours a day, and the number of tantrums is also obvious.

If it increases, if you don’t balance your mood, your body will be unable to withstand it.”

"Forget it if you die! Niang Xipi... this An Yi is becoming more and more lawless! We just fought a beautiful counterattack and won the great victory of Luanhe River that shocked China and the world. It makes me feel extremely comforted, and so does the whole country.

ecstatic for

He praised his virtues, and even Brother Yingbai in Peiping and Jing Lao in Shanghai also called me quietly, saying that this way, the negotiations would be more confident. But who knew that this stupid thing would suddenly do this to everyone?

One hand, actually

Without the consent of the Peiping Communist Party Branch and General Jingzhi, he arbitrarily issued orders to escort 2,100 Japanese prisoners to the forward positions to be used as cannon fodder and to threaten the Japanese. Such a despicable method had such a bad negative impact.

!You wait, you wait...see what all the newspapers across the country will say tomorrow, see how many European and American envoys will cross my threshold tomorrow, see how the *** will jump up and down tomorrow, pointing at my nose and scolding me.

!”

Chiang Kai-shek roared angrily on the phone and didn't even look at the hot water that Wang Shihe slowly brought. He kept staring at Soong Meiling's worried face with a pair of burning eyes.

Upon seeing this, Wang Shihe retreated quietly. Who knew that as soon as he stepped out of the door, he was startled by Chiang Kai-shek's roar.

"Come back! Go and call Deng Wenyi and He Zhonghan to a meeting. You must also participate."

"yes!"

Wang Shihe responded and left quickly. After going downstairs, he realized that his forehead and back were covered with sweat.

Less than twenty minutes later, He Zhonghan and Deng Wenyi arrived quickly after receiving the call. They met Wang Shihe waiting at the gate and asked in a low voice what was going on?

Wang Shihe shook his head and quickly briefly stated An Yi's evil deeds. After a few words, he asked the two of them to follow him into the living room on the first floor, saying that the principal had just come downstairs and was waiting in the living room and was very angry.

He Zhonghan and Deng Wenyi looked at each other and were so frightened that they gave up their opinions. They followed Wang Shihe uneasily into the living room on the first floor. They stood at the door and took off their military caps to report softly. Only when they saw Chiang Kai-shek nodding did they dare to step in and arrive.

Standing upright in front of Chiang Kai-shek.

Chiang Kai-shek took a swig of water, put down the cup and asked in a deep voice: "Do you know why I asked you to come?"

Deng Wenyi, who was shorter, lowered his head and did not dare to say a word. He Zhonghan, who was taller, saw Chiang Kai-shek's eyes falling on him, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet and answer honestly:

"Students know that I just heard Brother Shihe briefly explain at the door that Junior Brother An's matter... is a bit unexpected..."

Chiang Kai-shek raised his head angrily, pointed at He Zhonghan and said: "What do you want to do? At this time, do you still want to absolve An Yi of responsibility? 'It's a bit unexpected', hum! This is an understatement, I

I can tell what's going on in your head!"

"Principal, calm down."

He Zhonghan quickly lowered his head: "Principal, please forgive the students. In the past seven years of war, Junior Brother An has never acted so radically. The students are wondering whether the Japanese invaders did some despicable deeds to drive Junior Brother An into panic.

He had no choice but to take revenge like this regardless of the consequences?"

Chiang Kai-shek's face looked better: "When did the Japanese invaders stop being despicable? You know clearly that the Japanese are despicable, why can't you calm down? It seems that what you said is the same as what An Yi thought, it's all an excuse! In the past few days,*

**Diplomats secretly negotiated with our representatives in Shanghai and have achieved preliminary results. According to their requirements

, I sent the Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs Liu Chongjie to Peiping secretly, and together with General Jingzhi, we fully assisted Mr. Ying Bai, who went to Peiping in a private capacity, to make preparations for armistice negotiations between the two sides in advance. The *** people also passed the British, American and Italian

The consuls of the five French countries intervened and expressed their sincerity for peace talks, believing that the time had come for peace talks.

"At such a critical moment, An Yi actually caused such huge trouble. Think about it, how violent the *** people will react? If the fight continues, what will we use to fight? The government is heavily in debt.

, the army was extremely short of food, grass and ammunition. The *** army, which had been tightly surrounded by our army, took the opportunity to launch a rapid attack.

It is developing rapidly and has the potential to surge forward. Even An Yi’s hometown in southern Sichuan is now disturbed by that Huangpu scum Huang Han. Our hundreds of thousands of troops are suppressing it every day and every night. So far, we have not only suppressed him

If we don't stop, we will exhaust our opponents. Do you think we still have the capital to start a war with Japan?

"Also, in order to achieve their selfish desire for power, those internal party dictators and opportunists who are striving for power have taken advantage of the national crisis to stir up the political arena and force me to make concessions step by step for the sake of the overall situation.

One by one, they took this opportunity to reoccupy important government positions and continue to engage in the despicable deeds of the Communist Party regime! You think, under such internal and external difficulties, An Yi once again did such a bad thing, how should I respond?

How to deal with the aftermath?"

He Zhonghan only felt his scalp numb, and he mustered up the courage to ask An Yi if he had submitted a report. On second thought, he was afraid of angering Chiang Kai-shek again, so he could only swallow the words he was about to say.

Deng Wenyi, who usually obeyed Chiang Kai-shek respectfully, slowly raised his head and whispered with rare courage: "Principal, the students feel that although Junior Brother An did this recklessly, the Japanese army maintained the status quo through a verbal truce reached by the negotiators from both sides.

machine, and brazenly launched a sudden attack on our defenders on the eastern front in North China. Only then did Junior Brother An take advantage of the Japanese

The army was careless and arrogant, and worked together with other armies to quickly counterattack and recapture a large area of ​​lost land in Luandong in one fell swoop. This was unanimously recognized and praised by all walks of life at home and abroad in the newspapers yesterday, and the *** army also

It has been unanimously condemned by all countries. Therefore, it can be said that the Japanese army has done wrong first and has few helpers.

"As for Junior Brother An's amazing move yesterday evening, I'm afraid it was a choice made out of desperation. Yesterday afternoon, the students received a battle report. Junior Brother An's 39th Division and 44th Division were lost in the Japanese retaliatory large-scale aerial bombing.

The attack was disastrous. Two of the newly configured air defense battalions were almost completely wiped out, and almost all the tank brigade was also reported.

General Shang Zhen's Jinsui Army, General Song Zheyuan's Northwest Army, and General He Zhuguo's Northeast Army did not send battle reports, but a little analysis can tell that the other armies are probably worse than Junior Brother An's two divisions, plus

The day before yesterday, we were suddenly attacked by a large-scale and untrustworthy ****, and the overall losses were huge.

"Under such circumstances, in order to protect the strategically important Luandong front line that he had just recaptured and prevent the Japanese powerful air force from being unscrupulous, Junior Brother An once again carried out air strikes against various armies. In desperation, he took prisoners to the front line regardless of the consequences and forced the Japanese army to surrender...

Generally speaking, it is still much more civilized than when the Japanese army massacred my unarmed compatriots on a large scale again and again in the Northeast."

He Zhonghan quickly echoed: "That's right, Principal, it's the Japanese military who broke their trust first, and Junior Brother An's revenge. As long as we publicize it properly, we can save a lot of reputation, and at the same time arouse the anger of the people and inspire the whole country.

The Chinese people share the same hatred of the enemy and are united in dealing with the outside world."

Chiang Kai-shek fell silent. In order to create a good atmosphere for peace talks in the past few days, newspapers affiliated with the central government and pro-Chiang newspapers have consciously reduced their criticism of Japan. Now that such a change has suddenly occurred, if we continue to keep a low profile, it is very likely that tomorrow's Chinese and foreign riots will

Chiang Kai-shek was very aware of the bad habit of the Communists falling into passivity in politics and of the Japanese being aggressive and domineering.

Seeing that Chiang Kai-shek had hesitated, Deng Wenyi looked at He Zhonghan in tacit understanding, took a half-step forward, and added angrily: "If the principal agrees, the students would like to call Junior Brother An immediately and ask him to urgently contact the military reporters from major newspapers across the country.

Communicate, and publicize the Japanese invaders' treachery, barbaric acts, and all the evil deeds since the 128th War in Shanghai in tomorrow's newspapers. With the good relationship between Junior Brother An and the reporters of various newspapers, it is estimated that

It is not difficult to get to this point, not to mention that Junior Brother An's Southwest Radio Station is becoming more and more influential, and has opened a new English radio channel and a Japanese radio channel. They are definitely the anti-Japanese vanguard with a tough stance, making their broadcasts day and night.

By constantly clamoring, vigorously exposing the crimes of the Japanese army, and making propaganda comments that are beneficial to our side on the just-concluded Battle of Luanhe, I believe it will be easy to drown out the pitiful communist voices of the Japanese and pro-Japanese factions.

"

Chiang Kai-shek asked: "So what is the position of European and American countries? I wonder if you have thought of this key issue?"

Deng Wenyi was stunned. He really hadn't thought of this, and even if he had, he couldn't think clearly about it.

He Zhonghan's quick wit and erudition were well reflected at this time: "Principal, please rest assured that students believe that at least tomorrow, European and American countries will only express strong concern about this, and will not pay attention to it before the matter has been further confirmed.

Jumping to conclusions; secondly, the reason why European and American countries are keen to preside over the Sino-Japanese ceasefire

The main reason for the war negotiations was that they did not want to see the Japanese occupy North China, otherwise their huge interests in northern China would be completely occupied by the ***. From then on, the *** were so anxious that they spoke at the League of Nations meeting.

It seems that the pressure exerted by European and American countries on Japan is much greater than we imagined.

"Another one, the financial groups controlled by Junior Brother An, Mr. Zhou Chongan, Mr. Yongzhi, Mr. Ou Yaoting, Mr. Du from Shanghai, Mr. Feng Lao and his son, etc. have increasingly close economic interests with Europe and the United States, and these conglomerates are all related to Junior Brother An's

The Jiangnan Group is inextricably linked, as long as the principal quietly gives Junior Brother An a direction

, I believe that tomorrow morning these plutocrats, who are stomping their feet to make the country's prices fluctuate a few times, will stand up to support Junior Brother An. In this way, the adverse effects can be reduced to the minimum. European and American governments, which are making every effort to restore the economy,

Nor will we risk offending our Chinese business community by making a fuss over Junior Brother An's recklessness.

"The principal must still remember that one month ago, the day after Junior An's Jiangnan Group announced it would stop importing grain from the United States, didn't the U.S. Consul General in Ning anxiously come to visit, hoping that the principal would convince Junior An to continue fulfilling the intended contract?"

Chiang Kai-shek deeply agreed, and his gloomy face looked much better: "Okay, I will send a telegram to An Yi right now. I hope he can seize the opportunity and not miss this opportunity to get himself out of trouble."

"Report……"

The confidential attendant reported in a low voice at the door.

Chiang Kai-shek raised his head: "Come in...what's the emergency? Has the bandit suppression in the south been frustrated?"

The confidential attendant quickly walked up to Chiang Kai-shek, concealing the excitement in his heart, and presented a message with both hands: "General Huang Jikuan, the Chief of Staff, and General Yang Gengguang, Commander of the Central Army Corps, jointly sent a successful message: At eleven o'clock last night, the special agent directly under the Anyi Department

The troops disguised themselves, successfully sneaked deep into the Japanese right-wing position, launched a violent attack on the headquarters of the Japanese Sixth Division, and killed more than 400 Japanese soldiers.

More than a thousand people were seriously injured, many buildings including the Japanese headquarters were blown up, more than 30 Japanese vehicles were burned, and a large number of communications equipment of the Japanese Sixth Division were destroyed. The total number of officers and soldiers involved in the raid was less than 120, and all went smoothly.

Returned without any casualties. The specific number of Japanese officers killed, their ranks, and the extent of the impact need to be verified. Once confirmed, they will be reported immediately."

Everyone exclaimed in unison. Wang Shihe clenched his fists tightly and almost said through gritted teeth, "I knew Junior Brother An would never give up like this." Chiang Kai-shek stood up excitedly, took the folder and looked at it carefully.

Twice, he suddenly closed the folder, took a few steps and suddenly stopped. When he turned around, the excitement on his face had been replaced by a calm look:

"Nang Xipi! I knew An Yi would do this. He was using actions to force me to make up my mind. If my estimate is correct, General Ji Kuan and General Geng Guang must have been convinced by him... This An Yi

Ah, as the principal, I can no longer grasp his thoughts as calmly as before..."
