After a little combing of the wording, Liu Yun said to Liu Xiang seriously, "Chairman Liu, this matter is not easy, arms are a trivial matter, if they want it, give it to them, only Gannan is a place, but it is very tricky, I am afraid that we will not eat the mutton, but we will cause a commotion."

Immediately sighed, Liu Yun said with some melancholy behind his back, "It's a pity that the time is not ripe now, if the time can be a little later, or when our railway is built to Guangyuan, hundreds of thousands of Sichuan troops will arrive in an instant, so why not take this opportunity to occupy Gannan."

Xiong Yuhui, who was serving tea and water, stopped talking on the side, Liu Xiang also smiled faintly, and then let this guy also speak, and Adjutant Xiong was not polite, he was blunt about Gannan, he thought that this was a godsend, the Red Army was a defeated general under our Sichuan army, whether it was the Three Horse Coalition Army, Zhang Yang's Shaanxi Coalition Army, even the Red Army could not be defeated, even if it occupied Gannan.

Liu Yun and Liu Xiang only laughed silently, but Adjutant Xiong was able to say "our Sichuan Army", which was also a good thing, which showed his identification with the Sichuan Army, so Chairman Liu smiled very gently, and casually found an excuse to let him do other things, leaving only Liu Daguan to talk secretly.

Liu Daguan's words were reasonable, but in Liu Xiang's heart, he was still a little unwilling, so he didn't express his position for a long time, Liu Yun smiled bitterly, and he had to help people do things with people's bowls, so he had to come up with a bad idea, "Chief Liu, I have an idea of being lowly and lowly, that is, I don't know whether to talk about it or not."

Since the Red Army all went out of Sichuan, the situation in Chuankang and other places is very good, Liu Xiang is now very modest, and he has a great tolerance for any person and thing, so he smiled indifferently and let someone say it bluntly, if there is really something, he will naturally carry it.

Pointing to the map of China on the wall of the study, Liu Yun said very cautiously, "I think that it is good that this matter can be successful, and even if it fails, we must do our best, but Adjutant Xiong is right about one thing, this time and place are indeed a God-given opportunity, and if God does not grant it, we will suffer from it."

"The meaning of the humble post is to take a three-pronged approach, one is to hand over these two telegrams directly to the hands of Lao Chiang to see whether he wants Gannan or Shaanxi, and the second is to send another document to the humble post, clearly stating that he wants to extend the Sichuan Railway to Lanzhou and Xi'an, and the third is to increase the trade with the Red Army."

Liu Xiang was also taken aback when he heard this, and then frowned and thought for a long time, and then slowly asked, "Yicheng, you are doing this, but you are playing with fire, Lao Jiang really wants Shaanxi and Gansu, there are several forces entrenched, someone Jiang really has such a big appetite?" ”

Liu Yun didn't say anything, but walked to the side of the map, and pointed with his hand, Shanxi, Shaanxi, Gansu, Ningxia and Qinghai, as well as Sichuan and Xikang, and asked confidently, "Chairman Liu, look at these places, if they are connected together, what kind of situation does it look like?"

Liu Xiang couldn't help but be stunned, he didn't react for a while, with the shaking of Liu Yun's hand, he seemed to remember something, but he couldn't say it, just wanted to ask what was going on, but Liu Daguan said with a look of surprise, "It's still Chief Liu who is smart, and he can see through the clue at a glance."

Liu Xiang was depressed, so he had to pretend to be natural, and let Liu Yun talk about it himself, Liu Daguan was not polite, and directly said Lao Jiang's true intentions, "In ancient times, these places were Yongzhou and Liangzhou in China, which were the foundation of Qin Shihuang and Tang Taizong to unify the world."

Liu Xiang is not illiterate, he has been familiar with the Four Books and Five Classics since he was a child, and he knows the history of China well.

In other words, it is really more reliable to say that Lao Jiang wants to plot these places, Liu Xiang closed his eyes and secretly thought about what benefits he could get from hundreds of thousands of Sichuan troops, Liu Yun's implicit meaning He also understood, and the reason for giving the Red Army weapons was also very simple, that is, to let the Red Army defeat the Three Horse Coalition Army and the Zhangyang Coalition Army, so that the opportunity for the Central Army and the Sichuan Army would come.

As Liu Yun said, for the Sichuan army, it is indeed not ripe, the Red Army has just left Sichuan, and there are all kinds of waste in Sichuan, if the sword soldiers are used at this time, it will do all kinds of harm to the Sichuan army, but the more they do, the more wrong they will be, and in the end I am afraid that it will only be good for the old Chiang's Central Army.

Liu Xiang also knew that it was his own unwillingness that caused Liu Yun to have to make suggestions, but his plan could only help the Sichuan army, occupy Gannan first, and establish a bridgehead for the Sichuan army to occupy other parts of Gansu in the future, provided that he pulled Lao Jiang to start together.

Why are you pulling Lao Jiang? There are two reasons, one is that Lao Jiang did have the intention of annexing Shaanxi, as well as Gansu, Qinghai and Ningxia. The second is that Lao Jiang represents the central government, and nominally these places are under his control, just like the ancient Zhou Tianzi, who was born with the name of righteousness.

Liu Xiang quickly thought about it, and sighed secretly in his heart, Gannan Gannan, it is really a piece of chicken ribs, it is a pity to abandon it, the food is tasteless, and then his heart moved, why not take this opportunity of Gannan to eliminate the internal threat of the Sichuan army, the princes of the Sichuan army have fought a civil war for decades since the Xinhai Revolution.

So on the surface, the Sichuan army is speaking with one voice, but in fact, there are several factions inside, fighting with each other, which is really annoying, Liu Xiang just doesn't say it, it seems to be very generous, but in the Sichuan army, there are also a few people who make him suspicious.

Among them, the greatest threat is Liu Cunhou, Deng Xihou, Yang Sen and Pan Wenhua, etc., only three or five people, among which General Deng Xihou is the most prominent, not only has the crystal monkey Ya, but also the soldiers of the department are brave and good at fighting, such as Li Jiayu, such a rising star, actually came from his disciples.

In addition, Deng Xihou is an old enemy of the Red Army, since Zhang Guotao started an incident on the border of Sichuan, the two have been fighting for a long time, and if this guy is stationed in Gannan, he wants to fight against the water, and no one dares to really accommodate him, so the Red Army will not say it, the Three Horse Alliance is a family business, and it will not end well even if it is thrown into the past, and Zhang Yang and the two have become mud bodhisattvas to cross the river, and they are mostly cannon fodder.

Therefore, in Liu Xiang's view, as long as Deng Xihou is not forced into a desperate situation, he will definitely not switch to others, even if he wants to defect to the Central Army, because as long as Lao Jiang still wants the stability of the rear of Sichuan, he will never dare to take in the traitors in the Sichuan army, so he quickly set the general direction.

Liu Xiang paused for the crutches in his hand, and said with a smile, "Yicheng Xian, nephew, although you are young, you are the rising star of my Sichuan army, I am already old, and my energy is not as good as before, you see if you will book a family affair in the future, start a family in the city, stay here and help me."

Looking at the smiling Liu Xiang, Liu Yun was like thunder, covered in a cold sweat, he was not stupid, he didn't know Chairman Liu's calculations, he was ready to put him under house arrest in the city from now on, and he couldn't help but secretly complain for a while, these days he has been a little carried away, forgetting that this guy is also a big tiger.

Although Liu Yun was already anxious to burn down the house in his heart, he didn't dare to let Liu Xiang see the abnormality on the surface, and he smirked happily, and said a little cowardly, "Don't dare to bother with my uncle's concern, my father has already set a family affair for my little nephew, and it is Yin Qinlan, the granddaughter of General Yin Changheng."

"Yin Changheng", Liu Xiang is not very surprised, this guy is still the old-timer of the Sichuan Army, Liu Yun and these juniors don't know, the officers above the division commander of the Sichuan Army are basically known to everyone, Chairman Liu seems to be very satisfied, "This family business is good, Yin's old generation is a scholar, well, the character is valuable."

Liu Yun's eyes rolled a little, but there was some slander in his heart, what is this, Yin Changheng has withdrawn from the rivers and lakes since he was framed by Yuan Shikai, although he is in the city, he never asks about the world, and never causes any trouble to Liu Xiang, the king of Sichuan, of course, Yin Lao's character is good.

Liu Yun weighed it again and again in his heart, and finally decided to tell some truths, so he said with some sneer, "Uncle, in fact, you also know, the little nephew went to the United States to study a few years ago, and I didn't know about Yin Qinlan, so the little nephew met some friends when he was abroad."

"Knowing friends, well, it's a good thing", Liu Xiang didn't react for a while, no, as soon as the words came out, he noticed that Liu Yun's words were a little wrong, and immediately asked with a stiff face, "What friend, is it a foreigner or a Chinese, don't tell me, you already have a family abroad."

Liu Yun is no longer a rookie, Liu Xiang is not afraid of Yin Changheng, but Yin's protégés and former officials are all over the entire Sichuan army, unless it is a last resort, who wants to offend this person, no wonder Liu Xiang has allergies, so he had to lower his head and whisper, "It's Kong Xiangxi's daughter, Kong Yuling."

"Kong Yuling", Liu Xiang is no stranger, these days like thunder, just by the exclusive production of two life-saving miracle drugs, it has long been famous at home and abroad, the Sichuan army has been fighting all year round, all kinds of wounded not 100,000 but also 80,000, the demand for penicillin and sulfonamides has been high.

Liu Xiang's anger suddenly subsided, and he couldn't help but take a sip of tea slowly, and then said expressionlessly, "Since ancient times, there are clouds, the order of your parents, and the words of the matchmaker, your marriage contract with Yin Qinlan is the right reason, as for the matter of the eldest lady of the Kong family, forget it, your future future, after all, is still in Sichuan."

Liu Yun understood this, but he was a little bitter in his heart, Liu Xiang meant that no matter how good Miss Kong is, she is also an outsider, unless he plans to go to the Central Army to develop, he will have to marry Yin Qinlan, which is conducive to the unity within the Sichuan Army, and it is extremely beneficial to the branches and leaves of the old Liu family.

The eldest husband has something to do and nothing to do, Liu Yun is also a person who would rather bend than bend, how can he give up Kong Yuling, just like when he was unwilling to give up Yin Qinlan in front of Kong Xiangxi, of course, he also knew that he couldn't have a hard top with Liu Xiang, so he only drank tea and stopped talking, engaging in non-violence and non-cooperation.

In Liu Xiang's study, it was quiet for a while, and it seemed that even the sound of breathing was much lighter, and after a long time, Chairman Liu sighed, he couldn't be more clear about Liu Yun's meaning, but he didn't know what to do, kill or put him under house arrest, for a marriage.

Liu Yun also knows the truth of "when the princes are angry, the corpses are million", he has already made the worst plan, if Liu Xiang really wants to kill him, he has to break through, once he arrives next to the plane, he can return to West Sichuan County, close the door and be the overlord of West Sichuan, and no longer afraid of anyone.

Maybe Liu Xiang is really old, or maybe he is soft-hearted for a while, and he no longer asks about this guy's marriage, but directly changes the topic, talks about the weapons and equipment of the Sichuan army, and mentions that Lao Jiang means that he should contact Liu Yun and get German weapons from Sichuan County in the future.
