"You're such a nerd," Liu Wenhui waited for Wu Zhongxin to finish, then he was angry and funny, and said to him helplessly: "I really didn't expect you to intercede for those Britons." ”

Wu Zhongxin's face was slightly hot, but he still raised his head and argued: "General Liu, I am not for the British, but for the Tibetans, the central government's policy towards Tibetan Province is unity, unite the upper echelons, and stabilize Tibetan Province. ”

"Old master," Liu Wenhui shook his head slightly and pulled him aside, pointing to the majestic Potala Palace, the Potala Palace on the top of the Red Mountain, built against the mountain, dozens of meters high granite rocks, copper bells between the palaces, huge murals, it seems to be faintly visible. In the sun, this mysterious palace is solemn and exudes a holy glow.

"This temple is called a temple by Tibetans, and it is sacred and inviolable in the hearts of Tibetans," Liu Wenhui said in a calm tone: "But I think there is only one reason why he became a temple, which is the precipitation of the years, and it is repeated indoctrination. ”

Wu Zhongxin didn't understand that looking at the Potala Palace from here is more shocking than watching it up close, watching in front of the Potala Palace is more of a deterrent, but what you see here is mystery and holiness.

"What do you mean?" Wu Zhongxin frowned, he didn't understand what Liu Wenhui was saying.

"In the past few decades, the central government's support for Tibetan provinces has been too little, Tibetan provinces are poor and weak, closed, and difficult to resist the military, economic and cultural aggression of the British.

Wu Zhong was shocked in confidence, and hurriedly asked: "No, no, I will never agree to suppress in Lhasa, once it causes an armed conflict, it will inevitably cause turmoil." Don't think that 30,000 people can shock these Tibetans, during the Qianlong period, the Battle of Jinchuan, the Qianlong Emperor mobilized several provincial troops and spent tens of millions of silver to suppress the resistance of the Tibetans in Jinchuan. ”

Looking at Wu Zhongxin, who was a little anxious, Liu Wenhui smiled, turned his head and said to him: "I'm not so stupid, old master, let the Tibetans solve the affairs of the Tibetans themselves, and I won't interfere." ”

Wu Zhongxin looked at Liu Wenhui thoughtfully, and his heart moved: "Do you have a comprehensive plan?" ”

Liu Wenhui nodded: "There is a plan, but how to implement it has not yet been determined." ”

Wu Zhongxin's eyes showed hope, Liu Wenhui thought about it for a while, and decided to tell him the truth.

"Before entering Tibet, the Cultural Revolution and I made a plan, oh no, it should be said that it was a strategy, we lacked it at that time; The situation in Lhasa depends on the situation. Liu Wenhui said calmly that it was for this reason that he decided to have a showdown with Wu Zhongxin in order to get his help.

"After the British are eliminated, the next step is to rectify the Tibetan army, eliminate the pro-British elements in the Tibetan army, reduce the size of the Tibetan army, and in the future the Tibetan army will be merged into our army and undertake auxiliary tasks. After the rectification of the Tibetan army, it is necessary to rectify the Kashag political axe, and those pro-British elements in the political axe must be eliminated, and even physically exterminated, but this kind of thing cannot be done by us, only by those who are close to us among the Tibetans, and these actions must be completed within one to one and a half years. ”

Liu Wenhui told Wu Zhongxin about the overall plan, but he did not tell Wu Zhongxin about the deployment after completing these things, Zhuang Jihua's plan was even farther, after Lhasa was cleaned up, the 24th Army should be divided into three parts, and one part would stay in Lhasa to ensure the stability of Lhasa; the other went south to southern Tibet to completely eliminate the British power in southern Tibet; The third part, which should be the main force, should go north to the border of Xinjiang Province to prepare for entering Xinjiang.

Wu Zhongxin pondered for a moment before he spoke: "Do you know Longxia. Dorjee Tseje? ”

Liu Wenhui shook his head and looked at him with some doubts: "Who is this?" I have seen most of the officials in the Kashag political axe, and it seems that there is no such person. ”

"Of course there is no such person," Wu Zhongxin smiled, his eyes looked at the Potala Palace reflecting the golden light: "This person is now locked up in a prison in Lhasa." ”

"Oh, what's going on?" Liu Wenhui became interested, and he smelled a hint of blood.

Wu Zhongxin began to introduce this Longxia to Liu Wenhui in detail. Dorjee Tseje. LONG Xia. Dorjee Ci is the oldest family in Tibetan Province, the Longxia family, this family has produced two [***], and is the richest family in Tibetan Province. LONG Xia. When he was young, Dorjee Tseje was appointed by the 13th [***] to study in the West, and after returning from his studies, he served as the commander-in-chief of the Tibetan army, and was deeply respected by the 13th [***] Lama.

During his study in the West, Long Xia was influenced by Western ideas and felt the isolation and backwardness of Tibetan Province, and believed that this situation must be changed. After returning to Tibetan Province, he and a group of like-minded people formed the "League of Happiness Seekers", which called for the reform of the political system in Tibetan Province, the abolition of the Kashag system of life in the Kashag government, and the abolition of the privilege of taxation of the nobles. These measures were resolutely opposed by the nobility and the great monasteries, and after the death of the XIII [***], these nobles hatched a conspiracy to accuse Longxia of attempting rebellion, arrested Longxia, gouged out his eyes after the trial, and imprisoned him in the dungeon forever, implicated by him, his two younger brothers were sentenced to have one of their arms cut off and forbidden to enter politics, and later the Longxia family paid the price to let the family's other adopted son, Lalu. Ciwang Dorjee changed his identity and married Long Xia in the form of a wealthy man. Dorjee Cijie's mother, Yangzong Tsering, returned to politics. This incident was the Longxia Incident that shook Tibetan Province.

"Now the mint and power plant in Lhasa were built by Longxia at the beginning, but except for the Potala Palace and all the electric lights in my residence, there are no electric lights anywhere else, not because the electricity is not enough, but because they are unwilling to use it." Wu Zhongxin's tone was slightly mocking.

Liu Wenhui looked at the gray city wall of Lhasa, his frown did not relax in the slightest, he had already heard what Wu Zhongxin meant, but he still felt troubled, because he did not know anything about the upper echelons of Lhasa.

"Mr. Wu," Liu Wenhui said as if he had finally made up his mind, "I would like to ask you to stay for a while and assist me in completing this plan." ”

Liu Wenhui's tone was unequivocally sure that he was the main one, and let Wu Zhongxin, an official appointed by the central government, assist, but Wu Zhongxin did not feel that there was anything wrong, during the Republic of China, wars were frequent, and the soldiers were arrogant too much.

"I'd love to stay, but I'm afraid it's too long." Wu Zhongxin told the truth that as the chairman of the Mongolian and Tibetan Committee, he came to attend the [***] enthronement ceremony, and after the ceremony, he would stay for three or five months at most.

"It's not a problem," Liu Wenhui said nonchalantly, "The Cultural Revolution can solve this problem." Mr. Wu, apart from observing the ceremony, the chairman of the committee has not assigned you any other tasks? ”

Liu Wenhui's tone now is obviously much more respectful than at the beginning, this is his real surname, Wu Zhong sighed slightly in confidence, the Cultural Revolution in Liu Wenhui's mouth, of course he knows who it is, but this plan will definitely not come from the somewhat rude soldier in front of him, it must be the director of the Southwest Battalion who has not yet met, and he is the only one who has such great courage.

"Of course there is a task," Wu Zhongxin showed a faint smile on the corner of his mouth: "But compared to yours, it is too far behind." ”

"Oh." Liu Wenhui was not surprised, Zhuang Jihua's plan was originally very bold, Chiang Kai-shek's plan must not be surpassed, and his plan was to set up a liaison office in Lhasa at most.

"Still, I'm worried about whether the chairman will be able to withstand the pressure from the British, if he backs down.... Wu Zhongxin was very worried, now the whole country is fighting against himself with the strength of the whole country, Chiang Kai-shek is already seeking help from the West, the British are exerting pressure at this time, Chiang Kai-shek is likely to be unable to withstand it.

"This is also left to the Cultural Revolution," Liu Wenhui is still very confident.

"You just believe in him like that?" Wu Zhongxin was a little surprised, which was completely unexpected.

"You haven't dealt with this person in the Cultural Revolution, so you don't know him, I have been dealing with him for seven years, and he is very bold in doing things in the eyes of outsiders, but in fact, he only does it when he sees it. Let's just say that the British are cleared now, it seems that it will anger the British, but in fact the British will not and cannot react, at most diplomatically. Liu Wenhui said.

It was the first time Wu Zhongxin had heard of it, and he looked at Liu Wenhui in disbelief, wanting to see his true thoughts from his face. Liu Wenhui laughed and pointed heroically in the direction of Lhasa and further south: "Many people only see our difficulties, but the Cultural Revolution is more clever than us, he can see our advantages, can see the enemy's disadvantages, and at the same time make full use of our advantages to obtain the greatest benefits." ”

"Yes, we have the enemy of ourselves, but the British also have the enemy of Germany, the British and us, they face greater difficulties, in India, there is the Congress Party to find trouble for them, in the Middle East they also face the resistance of the Arabs, Germany [***] strength is several times more than the capital, although the situation we are facing is not good, but from the perspective of comprehensive strength, we are about the same as the original, we need time, time for development. Judging from all factors, now is the best time to solve the problem of the British in Tibetan Province, and even if we expel them by force, the British political axe will not have the strength to fight back. ”

"Besides, will our action against the British prompt the British to unite with themselves? No, Ben signed a mutual agreement with Germany and Italy, which was not only against Soviet Russia, but also against Britain and the United States. Therefore, it is impossible for Britain to join forces with Sayben, on the contrary, once Germany gains an advantage in Europe, Justin will peek into the British colonies in the South Seas, and then the British will have to join forces with us. ”
