Chapters of 173rd to turn the enemy as a friend (2)
An Yi followed Song Ziwen and Zhang Xueliang, and came to Chiang Kai -shek's office on the second floor of the camp. Chen Blei, who had just raised from the position of the Director of the Education Department of Zhejiang Province, laughed and welcomed him.
Stop Song Ziwen and Zhang Xueliang to drink tea outside, apologize to talk about the important military need to talk with Ang Chang, and then meet you.
Song Ziwen didn't think there was anything wrong. In addition to the post -long position of the staff, An Yi also also served as commander -in -chief of Chuanxiang, Yunnan, Yunnan and Guizhou, and commander -in -chief of Sichuan Sichuan.
In the southern region of the Symbisan Camp jurisdiction, Chiang Kai -shek did have many priority needs to discuss with An Yi.
Zhang Xue's conscience was a bit lost. He and Chiang Kai -shek were brothers. At this time, he called An Yi alone and made him feel a little unhappy.
It's almost relieved, turn around, and thank Song Ziwen in a low voice:
"If my brother told me today to pick up my brother, I am afraid that the younger brother An would not be so frank and enthusiastic.
Song Ziwen stuffed the tea cup into Zhang Xueliang's hands, waved his servant official, and said in a low voice: "Don't look at An Yi like others like others. You should have something to do with him.
It is often hidden in the conspiracy and tricks, but I can see that he is sincere to you today. I personally think that An Yi is very good at getting along, not what the central government and the military are jealous.
I am very old, and as long as it is involved in the interests of the country and nationality, he will do it at any cost.
"Brother Xian, don't influence the discussion of some people, and don't be blinded by Anyi's apparent words. This guy is simple and simple. It is complicated and complicated.
In the bones, he was very proud, not the person he recognized, he would not talk to you for a while, let alone a joke like this today, you can rest assured, haha! "
Song Ziwen knew Anyi's character very well, but he still didn't know enough about Chiang Kai -shek, and the complex and intimate teacher -student relationship between Chiang Kai -shek and Anyi.
In the office of the members of the members, Chen Blei signaled the servant of the officer who was serving An Yi, and then nodded at Chiang Kai -shek and An Yi. He also turned around and walked out.
Then, then
Chiang Kai -shek waved his hand and let An Yi sit on the chair opposite him. He didn't say anything polite at all, but An Yi felt a little embarrassed. This year, it is not important, the dignity of the teacher and the superiors and the superior level
The rules are sloppy, especially when the new life movement is launched.
"Sit, don't stand up stupidly."
Chiang Kai -shek looked at An Yi and leaned slowly on the back of the chair. He went straight to the theme in a word. There was no ambiguity at all: "The reason why you call you today is to let you let you let go of the hundreds of British captives.
You know the current domestic and international situation. I believe that the fourth hall of your leadership headquarters and Hu Jialin and others in North China have complained to you.
"I mean, why are you in such a hurry, haha!"
An Yi said with a rogue smile: "In fact, when I received the urgent call from the principal, the students had already guessed that it was about this matter. In hindsight, even if the principal did not summon the students, the students would still be busy after these days.
If there are urgent matters here, he will also make a special trip to see the principal to ask for instructions.
How to solve this problem? Those 537 British prisoners were too difficult to serve. Their food, housing, and even work methods were different from ours. If the International Red Cross hadn’t paid them in full
As for the food expenses, students don’t know how to support them.”
Chiang Kai-shek couldn't help but be happy. Being with An Yi always made him feel a sense of relaxation that he couldn't hide, and his mood couldn't help but become happy:
"The British and the Red Cross people complained to the central government and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs every day, saying that your guards were taking prisoners, and if anyone was unwilling to work, you would not feed them, and you also said that thousands of
The family members of the captives traveled thousands of miles across the ocean just to see their relatives. It is better for you. The stipulation is that they can only meet once a month, and each visit only lasts for fifteen minutes, which makes every visit in the meeting hall difficult.
They are all crying, and only you, An Yi, can do this kind of thing."
"Principal, students, this is based on the way the British treat our erring overseas Chinese and students studying in the UK. We treat them equally. After hearing about this, the British side is now much more polite to our erring overseas Chinese. At least they don't dare to be like before.
Then you can hit me if you want, and scold me if you want to." An Yi explained with a smile.
"Oh? There is also this matter..."
Chiang Kai-shek was a little surprised, and then nodded, obviously acquiescing to An Yi's approach. In fact, he had never been angry about it. An's army treated British prisoners of war in a very civilized manner. In addition to being more disciplined, they never made things difficult for prisoners of war.
and their relatives, so they didn't want to get too entangled in this issue: "Stop talking about anything else. Did you understand what I just said?"
"The students understand, but they still want to refuse the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to participate in the negotiations on this matter. On the North China issue, I am very disappointed with those boneless guys. They can hardly win any benefits for the country and the nation, and all they can do is compromise and
Comparing to Foreign Minister Gu before, they are far behind in giving in." An Yi said in a low voice.
Chiang Kai-shek was not angry either. After thinking about it, he felt that Gu Weijun’s group of diplomats who were gradually fading away had done a better job. He couldn’t help but sigh:
"Yes, yes! What you said is... However, things at this stage are different from the past, and the domestic and international situation is also different from the past. We cannot treat it with an unchanging strategy. So, I agree to your request and tell you later.
Mr. Wen and Yongzhi gave the British side a message and asked them to
Negotiate directly with you. Remember, you are not only representing you personally, nor are you just a few allies in the southwest. You are representing the government of the Republic of China and the entire Chinese army. Everything must be based on the overall situation. Everything must be based on the overall situation.
They all put national interests and the future of the nation first, do you understand?"
"Understood! Principal, please rest assured. People and students will definitely be released. The 26th Army will also withdraw from the disputed area currently occupied. After all, the Japanese invaders are aggressive. We now need the support of Britain and the United States and other countries. This point, student
I still understand. However, I will not give in on issues of principle. If the British still want to get the land that belongs to us, I am afraid that this negotiation will not end."
An Yi expressed his position neither softly nor hardly.
Chiang Kai-shek pondered for a while and finally nodded: "I know that what you care about most is the Lufang Silver Mine. Let me tell you first. The British intend to negotiate based on the boundary determined with the Qing government and will not be entangled in it anymore.
The demarcation issues in several disputed areas, that is to say, the British already know
I can't compete with you, An Yi, and I plan to take a step back to reach a settlement, first to resolve the prisoner of war crisis that has been criticized domestically. On this point, I hope you can cooperate with the British and save some face for the Empire on which the sun never sets, and don't get any benefits.
If you want to use newspapers and radio stations to publicize it, it will be counterproductive.
"As for some of the disputed territories in western Yunnan, the British want to put it aside for the time being and wait for the two countries to form a formal survey team and form a written agreement before discussing. I have held several meetings with various central ministries about this, and I think the British can
It is really rare to achieve this step, which makes our officials very gratified. I have to praise this
You, if your 26th Army had not occupied a large area of northern Burma and detained more than 500 British prisoners of war, the British would not be so easy to talk to, and it would not be so easy to reach consensus on this matter. It can be seen from this that,
Your handling was correct at the time, and now no one in the Central Committee or the Military Commission dares to say that you, An Yi, are arrogant and domineering."
An Yi felt excited. It was undoubtedly a very rare thing for his hard work to be recognized and understood. More importantly, after this incident, his colleagues in the central government and the Military Commission no longer dared to make false claims against him.
Well, my hard work and persistence finally paid off, it was hard-won!
Chiang Kai-shek took in An Yi's reaction, nodded with satisfaction, and asked with a smile: "How is the current situation on the Sichuan-Guizhou border?"
"Oh... the student presumed on the principal's intention and deployed all the 24th Army and the five brigades of the garrison to the Sichuan-Guizhou border to strictly guard against blockage. In addition, in accordance with the advice of the General Suppressor, just in case, I also
Mobilized two divisions of the Jiang Defense Force under Cheng Guang to move south to assist in the defense and control the
Control all strategic locations in the upper reaches of the Yangtze River, and then request Xiangxi General Zhang Hongluan to send two divisions to the Songtao and Youyang lines. The entire defense line is thick and tight and connected into one. According to the words of the former enemy commander Gu Changfeng, that is
It's as solid as gold." An Yi answered truthfully.
Chiang Kai-shek glanced at An Yi with a half-smile, and then nodded and praised: "Okay, you did a good job, better than I expected! From now on, you only need to cut off the Zhu Mao Red Army's northward path, and the rest will be done
Let Xue Yue and the others solve it as much as possible. After all, the industrial and agricultural bases in southern Sichuan and western Hunan are extremely important, and they are also an extremely important part of our future strategic plan. There cannot be any mistakes.
"At present, the problem in Guizhou has basically been successfully solved. Your main task is to assist the soon-to-be-established Sichuan camp. The Sichuan camp will be upgraded from the Chongqing camp. Its jurisdiction will not only cover Chongqing, but also the entire Sichuan except southern Sichuan.
All are under their jurisdiction. You must help the officials in the camp to handle political and military affairs at all levels.
The handover work. Originally, I planned to let He Yuanzhang be the director, but he offended Liu Xiang and the others when he took charge of the Chongqing camp, and the generals in Sichuan also unanimously opposed it, so I finally decided to transfer Gu Mosan.
The third is your old commander, and he has a very good personal relationship with you, so you have to support his work more."
An Yi was deeply surprised, but still agreed very happily: "Principal, please rest assured that the students will give their full support."
Chiang Kai-shek stood up to pour water. Upon seeing this, An Yi immediately said goodbye.
Chiang Kai-shek turned around and signaled An Yi to wait for a while, drank half a glass of water and poured another half glass, and then Shi Shiran returned to his seat: "What did you and Yun'er's little guy name?"
"Mr. Feng and his relatives and friends proposed more than a dozen names. The students were confused and asked Yun'er to make up his own mind. It seems that as of yesterday, Yun'er still hadn't decided." An Yi answered helplessly.
Chiang Kai-shek was happy when he heard this and waved his hand to An Yi to leave. After An Yi left, he remembered that there was something important that he had not said and hurriedly ordered Chen Buili who came in:
"Call An Yi and let him come in with Ziwen and Han Qing... Niang Xipi, we haven't discussed the matter of the army changing uniforms in batches. Without him, nothing can be discussed."
"yes!"
Chen Brai turned around and went out, and soon he led An Yi, Song Ziwen, and Zhang Xueliang into the office, who were chatting in a low voice.
After talking for a long time, An Yi, who was thoughtful, realized that what Song Ziwen was talking about was how to solve the problem of currency issuance by Southwest Bank as soon as possible, which meant ending the self-contained system of Southwest Bank's various business outlets across the country as soon as possible.
Financial and monetary policy brings the power of currency issuance back to the central government.
An Yi thought for a while and didn't have many opinions. After all, Song Ziwen's huge plan was beneficial to the entire country. Although An Yi Group would be slightly affected by it, compared to the 40 million people in the entire country, it was a small
The loss is necessary and unconditional. But then again, the circulation of currency issued by Southwest Bank outlets all over the country is as high as more than 2 billion. This does not include the figures on the books. If the central government really wants to
Once the exchange is completed
, I don’t know how many years it will take to do it. In a few years, when China and Japan go to war, the legal currency will face severe devaluation. The benefits that An Yi and his group will earn from it are simply unimaginable. Another point is that the research institute of Xufu has successfully
He has cracked the technology and processes of currencies such as Japanese yen, US dollars, and British pounds, and created counterfeit currencies that even banks in various countries cannot identify. Now the annual money laundering income reaches hundreds of millions. This money also increases An Yi's confidence, so he
I agreed so readily.
However, An Yi resolutely rejected Song Ziwen's attempt to interfere with the tariffs and trade policies between southern Yunnan and French Indochina (Vietnam). Song Ziwen's reasons were very sufficient: the central government had direct jurisdiction to collect customs duties, and the entire country had a unified currency and unified finance.
Policies are what a sovereign sovereign country should do. How can a unified country achieve substantive unity if it implements two different tariff systems?
An Yi sneered a few times and counted with his fingers his huge investment in southern Yunnan, from railways to highways, from resettling victims to winning over local ethnic minorities, from fighting against the British and Burmese invaders to reclaiming land to provide seeds and fertilizers, and all the investment.
Didn’t mention the line that is about to be fully opened to traffic?
Including the Sichuan-Guizhou-Yunnan Railway, it was already a huge investment of more than 370 million yuan. After that, An Yi asked Song Ziwen politely, in the past few years, the central government owed me nearly 150 million yuan in disaster relief funds, public debt loans, equipment
When will the arrears and war advances be paid back to me?
Chiang Kai-shek and Zhang Xueliang were dumbfounded. Song Ziwen was so angry that he stammered and simply sat down and stopped talking. Thinking about it carefully, he really owed An Yi too much. The atmosphere in the office became extremely solemn for a while!
