Because Baiyunshan Airport is a military-controlled area, it is sparsely populated and cannot be said to be prosperous. But even so, compared with the dilapidated Chongqing under the indiscriminate bombing of Japanese planes, it is still a world of difference. These have a great impact on him.
The impact was not very big, but what left a deep impression on him were the farming machines emitting black smoke in the fields, and the buildings connected in the middle of the fields. The closer to the airport, the more those parked in rows.
When the figures of the Baiji Dolphin and other types of fighter planes came into his sight, he was completely stunned.
One, two, three... more than a hundred fighter planes were lined up quietly on the apron, and when he saw the hangars on both sides of the apron, once he thought that they were also full of fighter planes, he
The mind can no longer maintain balance.
And when he took a Great Wall brand light armored vehicle from Baiyunshan Airport into Guangzhou city, he saw a prosperous scene along the way. He couldn't help shouting in his heart: "Who is the central army, who is the central government, and where is the central government?"
It’s the rear area.”
Compared with the Guangzhou city in Song Ziwen's old impression, Guangzhou, which has been governed by the Xuebing Army for four years, can be described as completely transformed, with wide Paiyou Avenue, cement roads one after another every day, towering buildings, clean streets, and so on.
Cars coming one after another, people with smiling faces and clean clothes... Song Ziwen came from a financial background. Realizing the hidden meaning behind these superficial phenomena, he lowered his posture and lowered his posture again and again, and actually produced a huge impact.
inferiority complex,
Because of this subtle psychological change, Song Ziwen became quite sensitive, so when he heard Ouyang Yun's above words, he had such complicated emotional changes after chewing slowly.
Giving Guangxi to the Xuebing Army was a plan that he and Dai Li came up with after secret discussions to kill three birds with one stone. They originally thought that for the Xuebing Army, this was a charity from the central government. However, now,
However, he had to change his tone and statement, so he came up with the idea of "I hope the student army can assume greater responsibility in the anti-Japanese cause and take the initiative to take over the Guangxi defense zone."
No matter what ideas Song Ziwen and the forces behind him had, for the ambitious Ouyang Yun, obtaining jurisdiction over Guangxi was a good thing. He touched his nose and gave Song Ziwen a meaningful look, and said calmly
: "Okay, but have you communicated with Chief Li and Deputy Chief of Staff Bai? Guangxi is their traditional sphere of influence."
Song Ziwen's eyelids twitched and he forced a smile and said: "Not yet. Aren't the Commander-in-Chief and Chief Li good friends? He and Deputy Chief of Staff Bai currently hold important positions in the Central Army and will definitely not have time to take care of Guangxi. The Japanese army is also aggressive. Are you willing to help them?
I think they will welcome it with both hands."
"You can't say that." Ouyang Yun smiled mysteriously, took out a cigarette and handed him one first, then lit another one himself, took a puff and said, "There are no trivial matters in military affairs. Just because Chief Li and I have personal affairs,
We have a close friendship with each other, so I must take his feelings into consideration. Without his approval, I will not do such a bastard thing that makes my relatives hate and my enemies happy. Of course, as long as it has something to do with the Anti-Japanese War, our Xuebingjun will never shirk the blame.
Therefore, for the sake of the overall situation, I would like to ask the central government to communicate with Chief Li and Deputy Chief of Staff Bai about this matter..."
Regardless of whether Ouyang Yun's words are sincere or not, at least they are watertight on the surface. If Song Ziwen really agrees to let them do the work of Li and Bai, then the three birds with one stone will suddenly lose one. Moreover, it is bound to cause Li and Bai to alienate themselves from the central government. What troubles Song Ziwen is that the real purpose of his trip to Guangzhou is to facilitate his second sister's trip to the United States, and now Ouyang Yun has not given any permission at all. He seemed to have no choice but to accept it,
Thinking about it, he had a fierce ideological struggle in his mind, and finally decided to compromise with Ouyang Yun for his second sister's trip to the United States, so he tentatively said: "The work of Chief Li and Deputy Chief of Staff Bai is up to us. I want to do it, but I don’t know if Miss Gu can help me with my wife’s visit to the United States.”
Ouyang Yun stopped as soon as he saw that it was okay, his tone immediately changed, and he said: "It should be no problem."
"That's great. I don't know when we will have accurate information."
"The day the central government issued the document." Ouyang Yun replied with a smile,
"The central government issued a document." Song Ziwen hesitated, then gritted his teeth and said: "Okay, then it's decided."
On the 21st, when the Japanese Combined Fleet began to return home with an aircraft carrier and four battleships of the captured US Pacific Fleet and 31 other warships of various types, the Chongqing government issued a telegram to notify all defense zones that Guangxi Administrative It was officially incorporated into the Special Administrative Region of the Chinese People's Liberation Army. Three of the original garrison divisions, four garrison divisions, a guerrilla column and the new 206th Division were also merged into the Chinese People's Liberation Army.
Kunming, when the adjutant sent this telegram to Yunnan Provincial Chairman Yun Long, Yunlong sneered and shook his head and said to Huang Banxian on the side: "Strange, when did Chiang Kai-shek become so generous? Ouyang Yun this time I'm just afraid that there will be a lot of bloodletting."
In Shiyan, Hubei Province, after Li Zongren and Yang Sen saw this telegram, the former turned his attention to the wall chart behind him without saying a word, while Yang Sen slapped his hand on the table and shouted: "Ouyang Yun! This is so unjust. Even if he wants to annex Guangxi, he should send you a telegram first."
In the office of the deputy chief of staff of the Supreme Military Commission in Chaotianmen, Chongqing, Bai Chongxi angrily threw the teacup in his hand to the ground and cursed angrily: "It's too much to bully someone. It's really unreasonable for you not to say hello to me for such a big matter."
In Larong, Myanmar, at the headquarters of the Northeast Expeditionary Force, a group of generals surrounded Marshal Zhang. The crowd was furious and criticized the central government. They believed that the Northeast Army was the one who most needed a foothold in the country. Someone suggested that Marshal Zhang call Ouyang. Yun asked the Xuebing Army to cede Guangxi to the Northeastern Army; several of the young generals even rolled up their sleeves and shouted, "Fight back and occupy Guangxi directly."
...Compared with the hustle and bustle in other defense zones, the General Headquarters of the Military Academy was relatively low-key. Ouyang Yun first found Song Ziwen and informed him that within three days, Chongqing would receive an invitation from Eleanor, wife of President Roosevelt of the United States. After receiving an invitation letter from my wife to visit the United States, and then a series of orders, He Zhengjiang's military unit, which was dormant on the border between Guangxi and Guangdong, immediately moved. They marched directly west from Hezhou, spread out like fishing nets, and began to receive security guards from various places along the way. The troops were organized; then, a group of political workers with a size of about 3,000 people, escorted by 5,000 self-defense team members, set off from Guangzhou to Guangxi; then, a huge convoy was organized, carrying about 500 people. Medical workers and about 200 tons of food, medicine and other living supplies entered Guangxi following the 3,000 political workers...
