Chapter 978: Pursuing advantages and avoiding disadvantages
Chapter 978 Seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages
Yu Jishi came in a hurry and didn't disturb anyone except An Yi and Dai Li. The three of them had lunch together at An Yi's home in Houzai Lane. Dai Li had to leave temporarily because he had something to do. Only Yu Jishi and An Yi were left in the study on the second floor.
The two senior brothers exchanged their views on the current situation, asked about their respective jobs with concern, and then got down to business.
An Yi took Chiang Kai-shek's letter from Yu Jishi and opened it immediately. After reading it, there was no surprise or displeasure on his face. He nodded sincerely to Yu Jishi as before, and immediately issued a national industrial and commercial certificate worth four million yuan.
The bank cash check was delivered to Yu Jishi.
Yu Jishi was very moved by An Yi's generosity, and was also secretly surprised by An Yi's intelligence and acumen.
After following Chiang Kai-shek for so many years, Yu Jishi had seen countless industrial and commercial tycoons, high-ranking officials and wealthy people, but none of them had An Yi's outstanding magnanimity. Four million yuan is not a small sum, and no matter how rich people are, they will be very cautious.
He even had to ask some questions. But An Yi didn't ask about the reason, let alone complain. Instead, he happily gave away four million, as if he had made an appointment with him in advance.
Yu Jishi pushed back the check and suggested that An Yi should only issue two million yuan. The remaining two million yuan had already been approved by the principal to purchase weapons, equipment and other materials from An Yi's arsenal, so as to avoid having to pay again.
An Yi smiled and asked senior brother if you already have a detailed purchase list? If you deduct it directly from the four million, how will senior brother prepare the accounts? How to report the source of funds and expenditures? In just a few words, Yu Jishi will understand.
, embarrassedly accepted the check.
Before leaving, An Yi specially asked Shen Fengdao to go to the arsenal office next door to get several equipment lists, which were provided to Zhang Chengzhu Division and Yang Jiuxiao Division for Yu Jishi to take back for reference, because each general has his own actual needs.
Depending on the command style and preference, there will be differences in the configuration of weapons and equipment. It is not too late to weigh the pros and cons before placing an order.
Yu Jishi was not the kind of person to show off, nor did he say any nonsense words of gratitude to An Yi. He patted An Yi heavily on the shoulder and turned to leave.
However, the brothers under An Yi were not so cool. They were all filled with resentment. Even Zhao Rui, who had the best temper and the most steady behavior, lamented and shook his head.
Seeing everyone like this, An Yi had to call everyone to sit together and let everyone express their opinions. After everyone finished complaining, An Yi asked with a smile: "Senior Brother Zhao, have you ever thought about the principal?
Why was the anti-rape operation in Hangzhou secretly approved?”
Zhao Rui replied: "First of all, it is a political need. Since the signing of the Ho-Mei Agreement on the armistice in North China, the traitor forces and rhetoric have risen again. It is very necessary to kill others at this critical moment; secondly, it is the Japanese economic penetration and aggression against us.
It is getting worse and worse, seriously destroying the foundation of our country's national industry and commerce, disrupting the financial market, and monopolizing many fields of our country's industry and commerce. It is very detrimental to our country's economic development. If we don't make a gesture, it will not only be difficult for the country and the people, but also shake the country's foundation.
.
"Furthermore, without the use of extraordinary means, it is impossible to have much effect. Over the past few years, the central government and the domestic business community have negotiated, appealed to the League of Nations for a ruling, and even launched a nationwide boycott of Japanese goods, but they have not achieved the results they deserve.
As a result, the Japanese have intensified their economic aggression, commodity dumping and resource plundering, so I am afraid that the committee can only use this trick of ours, but..."
The brothers very much agreed with Zhao Rui's analysis and admired his knowledge and level. When they heard Zhao Rui's last hesitant "just", they couldn't help but look at him and wait for the next step.
"Everyone here is my brother, senior brother, don't have any worries." An Yi hit the point with one sentence.
Zhao Rui nodded: "Yes! Please forgive me for speaking frankly. The committee member himself is from Zhejiang, and senior brother Yu Jishi is also from Zhejiang. If they take action to get rid of Deng Yiliang, one mistake may cause many negative effects, and this
At that time, Dai Yunong's operations department couldn't spare any manpower, so he agreed to our fourth department's action plan. Even if we made mistakes in the action, the committee would be able to push it away.
"Secondly, in the past few years when Lu Diping has been in power in Zhejiang, it has been difficult to open up the situation. After Liangzhen (named by Yu Jishi) was transferred to the security commander of Zhejiang Province, it was also difficult to use his hands and feet in Zhejiang where various forces are entangled. How can we endure this? From now on?
Judging from the above two points, the committee has already planned to use thunderbolt means to clean up all aspects of Zhejiang. It happened that our fourth department proposed this application plan, so it was successfully approved by the committee."
"Yes! It's true when you think about it carefully!" Chen Yu sighed loudly, and Zhan, Zhang Yang, Liu Hao and others also suddenly realized it.
"Is there any more?" An Yi asked.
Zhao Rui shook his head: "My subordinates racked their brains and could only think of these few points."
An Yi asked seriously: "Brother, didn't you think of the money factor when formulating the action plan?"
Zhao Rui was stunned for a moment, then laughed: "I guess I thought of it, but I didn't think so much. I didn't expect the committee to divide one-third of our income so unreasonably."
The brothers shook their heads and smiled helplessly.
An Yi glanced around seriously: "All the circumstances show that the commission not only thought about our possible seizure amount, but also turned a blind eye, pretended to be confused and let the matter go. It is impossible for the commission to
I wonder how much wealth Deng Yiliang, who is also from Zhejiang and has been rich for many years, has.
"So, do you understand why I am so generous today? Fighting and engaging in politics are essentially for profit. To put it bluntly, it is business. To do business, everyone must be profitable, not to mention that we have made a profit.
Big head? Although a business like this in Hangzhou may not happen once in ten years, we should not ruin our reputation by being too greedy."
The brothers thought deeply and gradually became relieved.
An Yi stood up and paced back and forth slowly: "One more thing, our territory is in the southwest. Beyond the southwest, it is not as easy to do anything as we think. The legitimacy of the central government must be recognized, right? Now there is only the committee
Can you not see the fact that one person can suppress all the major forces in the country? Furthermore, the anti-bandit force has 600,000 to 700,000 troops, and these 600,000 to 700,000 troops all rely on the chairman of the committee for payment.
Regardless of whether they are willing or not, and regardless of how loyal they are to the party and state in their hearts, they have to fight wherever Chairman Chiang points.
"For example, the Fujian Incident may have given you a lot of inspiration. With the strength and influence of Li Jishen, Chen Shuming, Jiang Guangding, Cai Tingkai and other famous generals and a large group of party and state elders, they have now ended up like a rat crossing the street and everyone shouted for beatings.
, what does our emerging force count?
"In the past, many brothers encountered grievances and shouted rebellion in anger. Let alone the most important point, can we surpass dozens of seniors in Fujian in terms of political reputation? Are we strong enough to fight against the central government?
An attack by an army of 700,000 to 800,000 people? From ancient times to the present, everything must be done with a good reputation. Can we start a war for our own selfishness and still hope to win the support of the people across the country? Can't we?"
An Yi paused for a moment, and was very satisfied with the brothers' thoughtful and fearful reactions: "Actually, it's good to understand this matter. In the past two years, Uncle Dao often warned us: modesty will benefit, fullness will lead to loss! This sentence I
I asked the Political Department to make a large banner and hang it in the headquarters conference room in southern Sichuan. I wonder if everyone will go there often to see it and reflect on it?
"Based on our current situation, strength, ideals and beliefs, we must use the most humble attitude to unite the majority of the country's armed forces as much as possible. At critical moments, we must help if we can, such as the Songhu War of Resistance and the North China War of Resistance.
Our army has fought side by side with friendly forces from all sides, and we should have this awareness. One of the reasons why I am so generous to Senior Brother Yu today is exactly this. I believe everyone also knows Senior Brother Yu’s performance when he served as the commander of the 88th Division.
, he will never be ambiguous in fighting the Japanese invaders. Now that he has reorganized one of his own divisions, can we not give our full support? Putting aside personal feelings, Senior Brother Yu’s character and his potential role are worthy of our respect and
Make friends.
"Emotions cannot be measured by money. Just like the relationship between our brothers, it can never be spent with money. Give me An Yi tens of billions, and I, An Yi, will not leave one of my brothers behind. I believe you will too."
Same as me. So, everyone should be more open-minded about money matters, and don’t be so petty. Money is earned by people. For example, this time, without the consent of the committee, we would not have gained more than 10 million.
Sharing it with everyone is nothing, this is called spending money to eliminate disasters, seeking benefits and avoiding harms!"
All the brothers nodded frequently. Today's lesson made everyone deeply educated and impressed.
The meeting dispersed, and An Yi, who had put aside a lot of worries, was very relaxed. But when he picked up the military intelligence briefings sent by the Military Command Bureau and the Party Affairs Investigation Bureau, as well as the secret reports sent by the stations in the Fourth Hall, An Yi could no longer relax. He saw that
With the split within the 19th Route Army, it can even be speculated that the 19th Route Army will be defeated imminently.
Liu Qing came to An Yi's desk again, handed over a report, and said in a low voice: "The Sichuan Army's Yang Sen Department and Wang Jiling Department have won two battles in a row. The situation in northern Sichuan has basically stabilized. Zhang Guotao and Xu Xiang have reduced their forces in the front.
If there are no major changes, the Sichuan-Shaanxi Red Army may slowly withdraw its defense line to the north and engage in tough battles. Positional warfare is not the Red Army's strength. Seeking victory in mobile warfare is the correct strategy for them to maximize their strengths and avoid their weaknesses."
An Yi took the report and read it carefully. Not only was the situation in northern Sichuan changing, but the Red Army in southern Henan was also defeated in the eastern part of Xu Hai. An Yi sighed and was about to close the report, and saw with a dazzling eye the code name "Professor" in it.
I immediately took out the letter header and checked it carefully. After reading for a while, I looked up to the sky and sighed:
"As expected, the Russians do not agree with the alliance between the Red Army and the 19th Route Army at all. Look here... At nine o'clock this morning, Moscow Radio actually said, 'The Fujian government has nothing to do with the real revolutionary movement.
The Fujian Incident will trigger a struggle between Japan, Britain and the United States in China. It is obvious that they do not recognize the alliance between the Chinese Workers' and Peasants' Red Army and the Fujian side. It seems that the Central Red Army has been controlled by the so-called Communist International and may not be able to withstand the pressure and abandon its alliance with the 19th Route.
With the joint operation of the army, the defeat of the 19th Route Army is imminent!"
"Yes! My subordinates are also deeply touched. Commander, would you like to remind General Li Jishen or General Cai Tingkai?" Liu Qing asked carefully.
An Yi shook his head: "It's useless. They can't listen at this time. They might blame me for alienating them. It's better not to mention it. By the way, what happened to Xia Jian? He went to Fengdu.
?”
"Mr.
We boarded our cargo ship 'Chuanxing', successfully avoided the Yichang water checkpoint, and fled downstream. Chief Xia must have been angry and went to Fengdu himself." Liu Qing said helplessly.
An Yi then thought: "No, if this matter is not taken seriously, it is likely to become the laughing stock of our Anjiajun in the future. Immediately send a telegram to Liu Xiang in my name, be polite and ask him to verify this matter. I believe he will receive
The telegram will be taken seriously."
"Understood! So, do you want to let Commander Xia give up for the time being? Let the intelligence departments and the Fourth Department of our army fully investigate the whereabouts of Scar Five?" Liu Qing asked.
"Well, I'll just follow your opinion, and you'll be responsible for handling it yourself."
