Chapter 729 Don't want to be alone

“…… Because I have a deep love for the country and the nation in my heart! I have a sense of crisis and mission for the country and nation that is full of disasters and disasters, and since I An Yi has come to this world for a trip, I can't help but seek happiness for my fathers and fellow villagers......" Chiang Kai-shek put down the newspaper after reading it, and said with emotion: "An Yi said it very well, no wonder the national newspapers are reprinting the content of his speeches at the Yunnan Provincial Assembly and Donglu University. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ”

Yang Yongtai smiled slightly: "The evaluation of the commission is appropriate, it's just ...... In his speeches on different occasions during his week in Kunming, General An did not mention the central government's concern for Yunnan, nor did he mention the painstaking efforts devoted by the committee to Yunnan's development, giving people the feeling of taking the opportunity to establish personal prestige and overriding the organization.

His visit to Kunming was a complete reversal of the Yunnan people's unsightly but hidden regional concept, and the stubborn Yunnan Provincial Government began to change its concept and tried to gradually establish cooperative relations with southern Sichuan, Xiangxi, and Qianxi, which fully demonstrated that General An once again successfully exerted his unique influence in Yunnan.

"Of course, my subordinates admired General An's wisdom very much, his method of persuading Yunnan political circles seemed to be straightforward, without giving face at all, but after savoring it, he found that it was very ingenious and effective, which is very similar to General An's style of fighting.

Chiang Kai-shek naturally knew what Yang Yongtai wanted to express, so he couldn't help shaking his head and smiling, and turned to Chen Bui, deputy minister of education and staff member who did not speak:

"Yan Ji, what do you think of the hype of public opinion on the southwest in the past few days?"

Chen Bui's half-moon-shaped eyes left the newspaper in his hand: "Bench, I don't think there's anything wrong with General An's approach." Since he became vice minister of education at the beginning of last year, he has visited Jiangnan Polytechnic University and Jiangnan Medical College six times, and in mid-March he also inspected the South Sichuan Institute of Technology in Syria and participated in the groundbreaking ceremony of the scientific research building of the university's Mechanical Research Institute.

"For a long time, there has been such a convention in our country: In order to win the hearts and minds of the people, we must first win public opinion, and in order to win public opinion, we must win the hearts of the intellectuals who control public opinion, and if we want to win the hearts of intellectuals, we must attach importance to education, give scholars and doctors tangible benefits, do what they like, and give them hope.

"General An is obviously good at this, from Nanchang to Yichang, from Xiangxi to southern Sichuan, and then to Yunnan today, General An has done a very good job in controlling and guiding public opinion, and he is like a light weight, calmly, more and more comfortable, it is indeed not simple!

"It's just that with General An's great talent, especially his amazing talent in the military field, it is still too much of a pity to put it in local construction and handling local and trivial civil affairs, especially in this extraordinary period of suppressing banditry and chaos, and the party-state urgently needs him to preside over the war!"

When Chiang Kai-shek heard Chen Bui say the same, he nodded thoughtfully, thought for a moment, and turned to Yang Yongtai: "Changqing, you also know that less than two months have passed since the Battle of Songhu, An Yi's department has been fully engaged in this battle, and the three main divisions of the 24th Army have lost more than half of the battle, and the independent division of the ace division of our Central Army is still recovering from its wounds and breathing, and its combat strength has not yet recovered, so in this large-scale suppression of banditry and rebellion, I can't and can't bear to use these heroic and warlike main forces, they are in great need of rest and replenishment, Therefore, I also agreed to An Yi's request, and after discussion by the central authorities, the Sichuan-Yunnan Border Region Appeasement Office was set up, so as to better build and stabilize the southwest region and build a stable rear area for the future Sino-Japanese war.

"Judging from the current situation, An Yi has been in office for less than two months, and he has broken the deadlock of division and division, and has cleared the disheartened Yunnan Province, basically achieving the goal we initially set.

"According to the original plan, An Yi will stay in southern Sichuan for at least half a year, that is, until the end of this year. Will it cause the gains that have just been made to be lost again? ”

Yang Yongtai understood what Chiang Kai-shek was worried about, rolled his eyes, and replied calmly: "I'm too worried!" The committee should believe in the ability of Brother Yi, since Brother Yi took charge of Yunnan, he has gradually won the hearts of the military and the people in a gradual and gentle way, and the resistance from the splitting forces of various parts is decreasing day by day, this time to invite An Yi over, it is very likely to be a strategy of Brother Yi, using An Yi's high prestige and influence in the intellectual and academic circles, to suddenly exert force, break through the last barrier in one fell swoop, and form a natural trend, and then Brother Yi is much better. ”

Chiang Kai-shek pondered for a while and nodded: "Well, that makes sense!" It seems that you still know a lot about Brother Yizhi. ”

Yang Yongtai struck while the iron was hot: "From the analysis of General An, through two years of foundation laying and uninterrupted huge investment, it can be said that southern Sichuan has been on the right track, and it is about to start rapid development, at this time, General An will stay in southern Sichuan, it seems a bit overkill, if the committee feels that it is not at ease, you can revoke the southern Sichuan appeasement office, or merge it into the Sichuan-Yunnan border area appeasement office, and the committee and General An are extremely trusted, and the steady and down-to-earth, capable General Yang Bin, as the deputy director of the Sichuan-Yunnan border area appeasement office, At a time when General An has other important tasks, the temporary appointment of acting director will not only fully guarantee that the current achievements will be carried forward, but will also be exchanged for General An's understanding and reassurance, so that General An can apply his full strategy and commanding talent to the current great cause of suppressing bandits and chaos. ”

Chiang Kai-shek closed his eyes and thought for a long time, then opened his eyes and looked at Chen Bui: "Yanji, what is your opinion?" ”

Chen Bui knows very well what Yang Yongtai is thinking, and he also knows that there have been rumors in the Department of Political Science that An Yi secretly sympathizes with ** and is unwilling to fight with his colleagues in the Whampoa Department in **, almost all of which come from Yang Yongtai, a heavyweight in the Department of Political Science in front of him, and he has a little disdain for the Department of Political Science that is always competing for favor with intrigue, but considering the increasingly acute contradictions between the Department of Political Science and the CC Department, and considering the needs and balance of Chiang Kai-shek's control of hegemony, Chen Bui did not let his mind be revealed, but replied very modestly and decently:

"Did the commission first solicit the opinions of General Jingzhi (He Yingqin), General Ren Chao (Li Jishen) and General Xuezhou (He Chengjun)? After all, these three generals are all independent generals, and their opinions are the ones that best reflect the requirements of the current army. ”

Chiang Kai-shek nodded slowly, Yang Yongtai glanced at Chen Bui with a smile, and secretly scolded the old fox in his heart, but he supported Chen Bui's opinion:

"Brother Yan's suggestion is very reasonable, if General An is summoned back, which position is more suitable to place and can give full play to General An's talent, but it is a headache that cannot be ignored, and it needs to be given an accurate opinion by General Sanlu."

"What about Chang Qing's opinion?" Chiang Kai-shek asked quietly.

Yang Yongtai was taken aback in his heart, but he said calmly: "Judging from the current distribution of my three-way army, my subordinates feel that it is better to set up a former enemy headquarters under the suppression of the old practice, first, to gather the best advisers in Europe and the United States to provide advice and suggestions for the suppression, and secondly, to go to a certain route army at any time under the special order of the commission to assist the commanders of each route to command the various departments to fight, with General An's outstanding military exploits over the years, as well as a good friendship with most of the main generals in the army, not only will not cause the resistance of the generals with troops from all walks of life, On the contrary, it can be more conducive and compensatory.

"The committee has also said more than once that General An is open-minded and has clear grievances, and what is even more commendable is that he has always taken into account the overall situation, has no official addiction, and his subordinates also deeply agree, I believe that as long as General An can successfully handle the relationship and make new contributions in the great cause of suppressing bandits, those rumors that criticize General An for sympathizing with the Communist Party and being good will naturally be self-defeating."

"Makes sense, makes sense! That's it...... I hope that you can reorganize and rectify the education system in Zhejiang Province and set an example for other provinces in the current chaotic situation of continuous and turbulent student tides. Chiang Kai-shek looked with hope at Chen Bui, who was going to Zhejiang again to serve as the director of the Zhejiang Provincial Department of Education.

Chen Bui hurriedly stood up: "Bray will definitely not live up to the expectations of the commission...... In fact, at present, Jiangxi is doing very well, as well as Xiangxi and southern Sichuan, there is no student tide and turmoil, and the investment in education has increased year after year, so that the education system and intellectual circles of all provinces in the country are extremely envious, and I am ashamed of myself, they are more representative, I really can't do better! ”

Chiang Kai-shek smiled slightly, knowing that Chen Bui was complaining about his grievances from the side, so he said a rare funny word: "Otherwise, when An Yi comes back, I will inform you that you can come to Hankou and discuss with him the cooperation between Zhejiang Province and southern Sichuan in culture, education and health.

Last month, Finance Minister Song just borrowed 20 million yuan from the National Industrial and Commercial Bank under the supervision of Mr. Zhou Chong'an, and it is for a one-year term.

"Thank you! There is a commission, and the subordinates are much more stable. Chen Bui said with a smile.

After sending Chen Bui and Yang Yongtai away, Chiang Kai-shek finally gave an order after repeated deliberations: appoint An Yi as the commander of the former enemy command of the General Headquarters, and lead the staff team to report to Hankou within three days!

Kunming, Yunnan, Yunnan Jiangwutang Zhu Peide's official residence.

An Yi handed Chiang Kai-shek's urgent telegram to Zhu Peide, Zhu Peide was taken aback after reading it, thought about it and told An Yi to go to the backyard with him.

Coming to the entrance of the garden, Zhu Peide asked in a low voice, "What do you think is the reason for the commission?" ”

An Yi sighed: "I was originally promised to give me half a year to consolidate southern Sichuan and unite the entire southwest, but now it is less than two months, and my marriage leave has not ended, and the urging telegram has come again. ”

"I also have this idea, your reputation is too great and your achievements are too obvious, and it is inevitable to attract envy, especially now that the struggle between the central factions has intensified, the Department of Political Science led by Yang Changqing and Xiong Tianyi (Xiong Shihui) and the CC Department headed by Mr. Guofu's brother have openly torn their faces, plus the reorganization faction of Sun Ke and others has been making trouble outside, Wang Zhaoming's party's ardent hope for you has not been reciprocated, you just want to be clean and self-conscious.

"Originally, I also hoped that you would leave the place of right and wrong in Nanjing and go down to the place to do some practical things, but now it seems that it is difficult to do so, this officialdom has been full of hardships from ancient times to the present! Fortunately, I returned to Yunnan and returned to my homeland, and I didn't have so many worries, but it was you, it was really difficult for you. Zhu Peide sighed very much.

An Yi thought about it and smiled: "Whatever, there must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, and the living will not let the urine suffocate to death, haha!" It's that you always promised the little nephew that the matter must be done as soon as possible, otherwise the little nephew will not be at ease! ”

"Wait! I really don't understand, why do you fall in love with the four towns in southern Yunnan? Is there a gold mine or a silver mine that makes you invest so hard? Zhu Peide still didn't understand An Yi's decision.

An Yi smiled: "Uncle, if there is really gold and silver ore there, the little nephew will not be so anxious, southern Yunnan and the western Yunnan region where the little nephew has repeatedly begged your old man to repair the road as soon as possible, it is likely to become an important lifeline, think about it, if there is another fight between China and Japan, can the few broken ships of our navy be able to hold the coastal area?" If we can't hold it, what will we use to build guns, guns, and planes? Even if it can be built all, without the import of gasoline and diesel, let's use water to start the plane? If there is really such a day, the only way to solve the problem of energy and raw material supply is through the Yunnan-Burma region, so the highway must be repaired, and it must be repaired as soon as possible, even if there will not be the scene I predicted, it will be beneficial to Yunnan's political rule and economic development. ”

"Is it really as mysterious as you kid said?"

"You have known your little nephew for so many years, when did your little nephew lie to you?"

"That's really ...... No, I'll send a telegram to your Uncle Dao when I go back, and ask him what his fortune is in the next ten years......"

An Yi rolled his eyes, shook his head and sighed discouragedly.
