An Zhongxin's route to the Sichuan-Tibet Highway was designated by Chiang Kai-shek, and the German army was frustrated, and the rapid victory prompted Chiang Kai-shek to seriously consider Zhuang Jihua's judgment.

Part of Zhuang Jihua's judgment about the European war had been confirmed, so Chiang Kai-shek had to seriously think about his judgment that France would quickly lose. Chiang Kai-shek initially disagreed with this conclusion, and in the last war, the French held out four in the midst of difficulties, and how could they quickly lose this time. However, the strong attack power displayed by the Germans in the Polish campaign forced him to deal with it carefully.

Ligao's intelligence that the Japanese army would move south reminded Chiang Kai-shek of another judgment about Zhuang Jihua, that the Yunnan-Burma Highway was not necessarily insured, and that the Sichuan-Tibet Highway was a supplement to the Yunnan-Burma Highway.

After the construction of the Sichuan-Tibet Highway. The repeated intervention of the British confirmed the British ambition for Tibet from one side, and also proved the necessity of building "the Tibet Highway, which can strengthen the connection between Tibet and the hinterland." In the event of an incident, the army can quickly march into Lhasa to control the situation.

However, Wu Zhongxin's itinerary was detected by the British, and the pro-British elements in the Tibetan army decided to prevent him from entering Tibet. Daiben was equivalent to two regiments were sent. The Tibetan army has a sense of superiority over the Sichuan army, and twenty years ago the Tibetan army once attacked Xikang on a large scale, occupying two-thirds of it, Xikang, and more than ten years ago, attacked Xikang again and fought a draw with Liu Wenhui.

But this time they made a mistake in judgment, although Liu Wenhui now has fewer troops, but the equipment is far beyond the beginning, the Lhasa government continues to create disputes, Liu Wenhui is worried that something will happen, so the troops sent are also the best equipped in the 24th Army. The tactics of the Tibetan army still followed the tactics of the European war, charging in a dense formation, and under the fierce fire of the road escort team, it was naturally miserable, and the casualties were exhausted within an hour. "Tell Chengdu and Wuhan." Yu Peixiang ordered softly, this battle was not what he wanted, he had been avoiding direct armed conflict, but things eventually went to the opposite side of what he wanted.

"Order the troops to strengthen their vigilance, and the work will be temporarily stopped." Yu Peixiang raised his voice and pointed to the battlefield and shouted: "Send someone to bury the corpse and pack up the lost weapons." ”

When Zhuang Jihua received the telegram, Lixuan called Liu Wenhui and asked him to come to the provincial government, although the military headquarters of the 24th Army was in Ya'an. But Liu Wenhui likes to stay in Chengdu. Liu Wenhui received the news a little later than Zhuang Jihua, and the report of the road protection team was transferred to Chengdu through Ya'an, which added an extra layer of turnover.

When he arrived at the provincial government, He Guoguang, Deng Hanxiang and Zhang Sike were already waiting in the conference room, and as soon as Liu Wenhui sat down, Zhuang Jihua asked him if he had received the report from the road protection team, and Liu Wenhui nodded that he had received it.

"Now that it's happened, let's talk about what to do." Zhuang Jihua asked expressionlessly.

There was a brief silence in the conference room, and He Guoguang spoke first: "Cultural Revolution, I think it is better to report to the chairman of the committee, wait for his decision, now the War of Resistance is the main thing, and the affairs of Tibet should wait for the superiors to take the concubine." ”

Deng Hanxiang was playing with a pen in his hand, his eyes were hesitant: "Special Envoy Wu is going to Lhasa to preside over the enthronement ceremony, if the matter develops into a full-scale conflict, he may not be able to go to Lhasa, and this enthronement ceremony may be delayed, and the consequences are unpredictable." ”

Zhang Sike also sighed: "This incident is unfortunate, the defense of Wuhan is about to begin, all materials are gathering in Wuhan, we are temporarily unable to send a large number of troops into Tibet, and the handling of this matter needs to be handled carefully." ”

He Guoguang, Zhang Sike, and Deng Hanxiang all saw that Zhuang Jihua wanted to take tough measures, but in their hearts, they opposed such measures, and they were not unaware of the trend of Tibet's independence, but the current situation was to concentrate all their efforts on dealing with Japan, and mobilizing a large army into Tibet was very likely to force the Tibetans to oppose it, which was extremely undesirable.

He Guoguang was originally scheduled to step out to serve as chairman of Sichuan Province, but after being rejected by the Sichuan generals, Chiang Kai-shek appointed him chief of staff of the Southwest Battalion. He Guoguang and Zhang Qun were two important weights for Chiang Kai-shek to control the southwest camp.

Zhuang Jihua looked at the three of them, slowly stood up, turned to look at the map of Tibet, the map clearly marked the highway route with a red pen, and there was a map of Yunnan next to it.

Liu Wenhui was silent, he was quickly calculating in his heart, from his original intention was that he was willing to obey the Wuhan Nationalist Government, but he also saw that Zhuang Jihua wanted to send troops and wanted to take the opportunity to deal with the Tibet issue, especially the British presence in Tibet.

Zhuang Jihua's mood was very depressed, he thought more, the Chinese ship was really full of holes, the Japanese attack in the east was still continuing, but there were still people peeping in the west; He was particularly indignant that Tibet, Xinjiang, the British, and the Russians, despite their own problems, were still plotting against China's ideas.

Connect past and present lives. Zhuang Jihua felt sincerely sorry for Chiang Kai-shek. His talent was evident in dealing with such a difficult situation, and it was almost certain that he would back down in exchange for the support of the British, but it was almost certain that such concessions would not have the slightest effect, and that the British would close the Burma Highway anyway.

Zhuang Jihua pointed his finger in

"Five." Two tapping. He Guoguang interjected: "Cultural Revolution, we can endure it first." The "bandits" themselves will solve the Tibet issue later, and besides, the regent of Rezhen is still very supportive of the central government, and if we take an overreaction, I am afraid that the contradiction will be exacerbated and Rezhen will be pushed to the side of the British. ”

"I'm not watching. I think now is the best time to solve the Tibet issueZhuang Jihua shook his head lightly, his tone was slow and solemn, and his steps moved slowly: "The complexity of the Tibet issue is not in the Kashag government, not in the **. Nor in the Tibetan aristocracy, the key is in the British. The British have been peeping into Tibet for decades, meddling in local affairs in Tibet, and promoting the establishment of the West. If left unchecked, it will one day become a big problem for us in the future, so we must resolutely increase the pressure, and the key to this lies in the British

"If we use tough measures to put pressure on the British and show our determination, we will certainly boost the pro-China people in the Kashag government and deal a heavy blow to the arrogance of those pro-British people, and we will be able to maintain peace in Tibet for at least 20 years

"So it's impossible for us to suppress the British?" Zhuang Jihua asked himself: "It's completely okay, the British are too self-conscious, the war in Europe is raging, but they are stirring up trouble here, they have chosen the wrong time, even if we take tough measures, the British government has no choice." ”

"The biggest threat of the British government is the closure of the Yunnan-Burma Highway, but unfortunately this is not a threat, and its strategy to curry favor with Japan will ultimately fail, Japan's southward advance is doomed, and a conflict between them is inevitable, so in the end he will come back and ask for relief with us, and there is no great danger.

Zhuang Jihua's conclusion was like the last stone falling to the ground, everyone sighed, He Guoguang and Zhang Sike exchanged glances, and they both saw the helplessness in each other's eyes.

In Sichuan for so many years. These people all know Zhuang Jihua, as long as he sees it, he will dare to do it, and he will be unswerving, unless you can refute him, but if you want to refute Zhuang Jihua, no one has been able to do it for so many years, and even such a complex project as the Sichuan-Tibet Highway has been forcibly launched by him, and the progress is not bad.

"Cultural Revolution, cautious, cautious, He Guoguang had no choice but to repeat the old saying.

"Don't miss the opportunity. Lost will never come again". Zhuang Jihua grabbed the map: "Brother Zi, the time has come to make contributions for all generations." The 24th Army marched into Tibet with the main force, the strength of the Tibetan army is only more than 10,000 people, your 24th Army has 20,000 people, you personally lead 20,000 people into Tibet, I will telegraph to Wu Zhongxin, ask him to wait for you in Qamdo, and go to Lhasa with you. When you arrived in Lhasa, you found a reason to close up the representative office of the British, and you had to act quickly, ruthlessly, and resolutely; Don't take into account the reaction of the Kashag government

He Guoguang gasped and seized the British representative office, which is too big a move and will definitely cause diplomatic disputes between the two countries. He hurriedly persuaded: "Cultural Revolution, this matter must be cautious, listen to the chairman, and not intensify the contradictions."

"The Nationalist Government has never agreed to the British Government setting up a representative office in Lhasa," Zhuang Jihua said quietly, but his tone was as cold as the ice and snow of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau: "Since we have not agreed, their representative office is not a government agency and is not protected by the handover."

Liu Wenhui calculated in his heart that there must be a sword and blood shadow when he went to Lhasa. But if the 24th Army is completely pulled away, what will happen to this logistics? Where does the supplement come from? And what about the all-important Xecan?

"During the Cultural Revolution, it is not impossible for the whole army to enter Tibet, but what about the logistics? And what if the troops are pulled away, what will happen to the Yi people in Xikang to make trouble? Liu Wenhui asked with Zhuang Jihua around his neck.

Zhuang Jihua smiled faintly: "General Ziqian, don't worry about this, the military salary, weapons and ammunition are wrapped in me, leaving 10,000 troops to expand to the general, and Xikang is still yours." In addition, the main force of the 24th Army must enter Lhasa. To form a deterrent to Lhasa, you can be as tough as possible against the British, but if you can, don't kill them; If you want to fight and pull the Kashag government and listen to Wu Zhongxin more politically, what you have to do is to target the British and expel the British within three days after entering the city

Zhuang Jihua walked up to Liu Wenhui and looked at him eagerly: "General Ziqian." Tell the officers and men of the 24th Army to bring down **. It is comparable to the significance of the elimination of Little Japan, and the history books will write down a heavy stroke, and thousands of years later, it will still be the glory of your General Liu Ziqian, the officers and men of the 24th Army."

Liu Wenhui's heart was agitated, and all the departments out of Sichuan came with good news, and they were regarded as national heroes by the Sichuan people, and they were all arrogant, and the 24th Army felt invisible pressure, and there were many young officers who asked Liu Wenhui to fight, and now they finally had a chance.

As soon as He Guoguang saw Liu Wenhui's expression, he understood that the matter was irreparable, and sending troops to Tibet had become a foregone conclusion, and it was only to see if Chiang Kai-shek could stop Zhuang Jihua's madness.
