At this point in the meeting, there are no longer any obstacles or objections. It has become the consensus of everyone to enter Sichuan decisively. All that is left is to formulate a specific action plan. This aspect is extremely simple. Those present are all military and political experts who have been immersed in officialdom for many years.
, knowing how to do it is the simplest and most effective.
Chiang Kai-shek happily withdrew his appointment. An Yi did not need to work with the generals of the Sichuan Army who were scattered and had their own agendas. He did not have to worry about commanding the army and fighting with his senior brother Xu Xiangqian and the Red Army to the death.
As a result, Chiang Kai-shek showed that he still had high hopes for Liu Xiang, the commander-in-chief of the Sichuan Suppression Campaign. He sent continuous calls to comfort him and generously promised to send three more main divisions of the Central Army to Sichuan to participate in the suppression of bandits in northern Sichuan under Liu Xiang's "full command".
During the war, he showed "incomparable trust and importance" to Liu Xiang.
The people specifically responsible for implementing the plan were Xu Yongchang and He Guoguang. In order to paralyze Liu Xiang, the entire Central Military Commission and the Chongqing camp were extremely cooperative and provided convenience to Liu Xiang in every aspect, because only in this way, the Central Military Army's entry into Sichuan would not encounter more resistance.
, can they successfully and quickly get involved in Bashu with a grand reason. Suppressing the Communists is the prerequisite for the Central Army to enter Sichuan, so these three teachers and students were temporarily handed over to Liu Xiang's command and put into the battlefield in northern Sichuan. They could not only drive out Xu Xiang, who occupied the important town in northern Sichuan, but also
It can also unknowingly expand the influence and territory of the Central Army.
Another strategy launched at the same time as the high-profile entry of the above three divisions into Sichuan was that in order to minimize the defensiveness of the Sichuan army generals, the three elite Anjia Army divisions no longer went north to the battlefield in northern Sichuan, but Chiang Kai-shek directly used them to suppress the bandits.
In the name of the headquarters, they were ordered to assemble again on the Qijiang, Nanchuan and Wulong lines. Among them, the 16th Division moved into Qijiang on the pretext of "assisting Liu Xiang's troops to encircle and suppress the Yellow and Han Red Army and strive to completely eliminate the Red Army base areas in eastern Sichuan and western Hubei".
The purpose is to coordinate the Chongqing Garrison Division of the Central Army at any time. Once the three divisions of the Anjia Army are in place, they will blockade and press the southern line of the Red Army in eastern Sichuan. Two of the three divisions of He Chengjun, who are encircling and suppressing the Red Army in eastern Sichuan, will
We can free our hands, quickly enter Sichuan, and use the excuse of supporting the Western Front of Suppression of Bandits to march into Chengdu and surrounding areas, thus completing the preliminary deployment of troops in the central government's plan to enter Sichuan.
At the same time, Yang Yongtai was appointed as the special commissioner of the Central Committee and rushed to Chongqing and Chengdu. In cooperation with He Guoguang, he expanded his intelligence to bribe and induce various lords in central Sichuan, including going to Chengdu to gain the support and trust of Liu Wenhui, Chairman of Sichuan Province. This time Chiang Kai-shek
No matter whether they were granted official posts, made wishes, or spent a lot of money, as long as they could win over the various gangsters in Sichuan, or successfully drive a wedge between them, and defeat them one after another, Liu Xiang and Liu Wenhui, who had a great say in Sichuan, would not have to worry about it, and their plan to enter Sichuan would be considered complete.
Most of it.
In the central and southern Sichuan areas, the powerful Anjia Army once again gained unprecedented trust and importance from Chiang Kai-shek. Chiang Kai-shek not only formally appointed Cheng Guang as the "Commander-in-Chief of River Defense in the Upper Shangjiang Area" and was promoted to lieutenant general, but also gave Cheng Cheng two direct subordinates.
The central government's temporary division designation recognized the status of Cheng Guang's Jiang Defense Force, confirmed the establishment and scale of the Jiang Defense Force, and its jurisdiction suddenly extended from Xufu and Luzhou to Yichang, the choke point of Chuchuan. Cheng Guang's power and status,
Improved dramatically overnight.
What Lu Guang has to do is to command the increasingly powerful inland river fleets and four marine brigades to complete the control of the upper reaches of the Yangtze River. He is fully responsible for the safety of waterway transportation in the upper reaches and ensures the smooth mobilization and transfer of various materials and soldiers. This laid a solid foundation for the Central Army's entry into Sichuan.
The next morning, An Yi left Lushan and rushed to Nanchang to attend the National Disaster Relief Committee summary report meeting chaired by Kong Xiangxi.
Before leaving, Chiang Kai-shek personally saw An Yi off and sent him to the dock at the foot of the mountain. He still held An Yi's hand tightly and earnestly warned:
"The disaster relief work has basically come to an end. Let the officials of the central government worry about the rest. After the meeting, you must return to southern Sichuan as soon as possible, meet with General Liu Ziqian as soon as possible, and tell him my letter and trust in him. One more thing , the central government has agreed in principle to establish a province in Xikang, and the chairman of this province will be nominated by General Zigan himself. If he is willing to let him serve concurrently, that is fine, but it is best not to tell him the inside story before we take Sichuan. "
"Students understand." An Yi replied in a low voice.
Chiang Kai-shek patted An Yi on the shoulder: "One more thing. According to relevant laws, you can only choose one of the Central Executive Committee and the Supervisory Committee, and cannot serve concurrently. My suggestion is that you'd better take up the position of Central Executive Committee at the end of the year. At the National Political Conference, a vote will be taken on this. You have made great contributions to the party and the country, have both political integrity and talent, and are of high integrity. It is the consensus and desire of both the military and the political circles to be promoted to the Central Executive Committee to take on more important positions. The Central Executive Committee The committee has more power than the supervisory committee and can better utilize your talents. Moreover, as the Central Executive Committee, you also hold the authority of the top military and political leaders in southern Sichuan and southern Yunnan. This will have a great impact on the realization of your ambitious industrial revitalization plan. Greater help.”
"Thank you principal! The students will live up to the cultivation of the principal and the expectations of the party and the country." An Yi said in a low voice.
"Okay! Go ahead, there's a long way to go!"
The gunboat slowly left the shore in the light rain. Under the umbrella held by the guards, Chiang Kai-shek waved frequently to the gradually blurred figure of An Yi. At this moment, he felt very fulfilled and relieved. His student An Yi showed him the most surprising way , showing his selfless dedication to the country and the nation, and at the same time showing an open mind without political ambitions.
Chiang Kai-shek suddenly thought, if An Yi did not express his feelings at an important meeting attended by core military and political officials, but confessed to him in private, would he let go of the strong suspicion in his heart and accept An Yi? After thinking about it, Chiang Kai-shek revealed With a smile of satisfaction, An Yi didn't have time to think more at an urgent meeting like last night. If he hadn't been completely loyal, there would have been no impassioned speeches and selfless dedication at the meeting, and he wouldn't have spoken to all the participants. It revealed the long-buried pain and silently endured suffering. Because of this, An Yi won the understanding and admiration of everyone, including political opponents such as He Yingqin and Yang Yongtai, and at the same time regained his trust and promotion from Chiang Kai-shek.
Chiang Kai-shek was not worried at all that An Yi would build a closed and independent kingdom. From old Nanchang to Yichang, and then from Yichang to the current Ziliujing area in southern Sichuan, An Yi went all out to manage every place he conquered. Once the party and state needed it, , he will give up the fruits of his hard work without hesitation, intelligently find another deserted land, and develop it with hard work. Such a person who cares about the country and the nation can be regarded as a "great" person in every aspect. Words, if China had more people like An Yi, its national rejuvenation and national prosperity would be greatly accelerated.
Therefore, Chiang Kai-shek, who was deeply moved, did not care at all about the means used by An Yi in the process of realizing each ideal, because the final result is the best test of all means and purposes, not to mention the talented and intelligent An Yi, no matter what methods he used,
Each method has its own good reasons. Facts have proved that he can do better than anyone imagined. If it were used by ordinary people and ordinary people, the effect would be greatly reduced.
All in all, Chiang Kai-shek is now very satisfied and relieved with An Yi. The next step is to give more trust and respect to An Yi and give An Yi more convenience and support in all aspects.
Chiang Kai-shek even thought about the future of Sichuan, a rear area that was far more advantageous than Luoyang and Xi'an. In order to ensure the complete recovery of Sichuan and the stability, prosperity and development of this rear area, An Yi's strong control over the southern Sichuan region must be preserved.
Control, now the entire southern Sichuan region has a decisive influence on the entire province of Sichuan. Only the driving and stimulating role of southern Sichuan, and only the strategic barrier role of southern Sichuan and western Hunan can enable Sichuan to achieve stability and rapid development in the new era in the near future.
The development of Sichuan is a fact that no one can ignore. It is also the basis for the central government to rule Sichuan. At least in the next few years, the central government cannot do without the strong support of southern Sichuan. Otherwise, it is likely to become the second old Nanchang.
, after Anyi Group withdrew, old Nanchang was unable to maintain even its superficial prosperity. The huge tax drop caused resentment among the people, and the gains outweighed the losses!
On the gunboat that was rising and falling in the waves and heading south quickly, An Yi, who was standing on the bow, put on the raincoat given by the captain and still stood silently, looking at the misty and rainy front in the distance.
Deputy Chief Shen Fengdao and Confidential Secretary Zhao Bohan stood quietly behind An Yi, staring ahead with him in the raindrops hitting his face.
Due to sudden changes in the weather, the plane was unable to take off to ensure safety. An Yi, who had to rush to the camp in Nanchang to attend an important meeting, had no choice but to take a naval gunboat urgently transferred by Chiang Kai-shek.
At this time, An Yi's heart was surging, and his thoughts were surging like the vast and undulating lake water. The difficult choice he made last night still made him unable to forget it for a while, but it seemed that while he was sad and painful, he also felt a sense of sadness.
A sense of relief.
Now that I'm going to Nanchang, An Yi will officially step down as the executive deputy director of the National Disaster Relief Committee. It is estimated that he will still retain his title in name for the follow-up matters of disaster relief, but it is expected that his position will become a virtual one and will no longer be as important as before. Here he goes
There is another important matter in Nanchang, which is to go to the last base of old Nanchang and hold an important meeting with like-minded elder brothers such as Lao Dao, Zhou Chongan, Sun Xiaowang and Xu Yichen. After that, Lao Dao will completely evacuate this carrying place together with nearly 20,000 brothers in the garrison.
With years of hard work and countless emotions in the city, he headed to southern Yunnan to continue to create his own glory and prosperity.
Zhou Chongan and the company's management will continue to stay, and gradually transfer the mining areas that resumed mining after the Red Army was driven away, and the smelting companies that accelerated production. These mineral deposits worth nearly 200 million and many advanced and efficient smelting companies have attracted people from Jiangsu, Zhejiang and even
The Shanxi plutocrats attracted a lot of attention. Many people learned that the Anjiajun wanted to completely abandon the old Nanchang industry in order to gather funds to develop southern Sichuan and northern Yunnan. Like locusts smelling blood, they swarmed in, waiting for the garrison to evacuate and Zhou Chongan
The price has been made.
An Yi, like all his senior brothers, believes that the increasingly important southern Yunnan cannot be without a highly respected helmsman. This important task is the experienced and prestigious Lao Shou Dao Mo, who is regarded by An Yi and the entire army as his own father and brother.
Genus.
But An Yi really didn't know how to say this when he met Lao Shoudao, Zhou Chong'an and others. Although everyone knew that this day would come sooner or later, and it was also the established strategic policy to completely withdraw from Old Nanchang, but once they evacuated, the reluctance and peace in their hearts
