With the liberation of Yunnan, the battle of Yunnan-Qianchuan launched by the Wehrmacht was basically over, and only a small force of stubborn enemies and huge bandits entrenched in the mountainous areas of Yunnan-Qianchuan had not been exterminated.
Wang Huaizhong walked into Zhang Yuanzheng's office and "snapped" a standing salute: "Report, Wang Huaizhong was ordered to report." Looking at Wang Huaizhong: "Come on, sit." Wang Huaizhong sat down.
Zhang Yuanzheng said to Wang Huaizhong: "Huaizhong, you also know that the troops have just taken the Yunnan-Qianchuan region, and now the situation in Yunnan-Qianchuan is still unstable, you immediately arrange for a large number of armed forces to enter and take over the security of various places, there are many bandits in the southwest region, and the main force will be called back soon to participate in the next battle, and I authorize you to be fully responsible for the suppression of bandits in the entire southwest region." ā
With the order in hand, Wang Huaizhong hurried back to the headquarters of the armed police to make arrangements, and the next day he transferred armed police units from various localities to the southwest region, and the field troops began to encircle and suppress the bandits in addition to resting on the spot.
The field troops began to take over the defense of the armed police force that came to take over, and the national defense forces left some troops on the border, and the rest of the troops began to return to Guangdong and Jiangxi to participate in the encirclement and suppression of the Taiping army, which would be the last battle in the south.
The relevant personnel of the government have also begun to take over in an all-round way, the administrative work and various policies in the southwest are also being gradually implemented, and the main forces of the First and Second Group Armies will basically be transferred back in May, and the war in the southwest is over, and it is time to turn back and deal with the remaining remnants of the army in the south.
At the meeting held by the Ministry of National Defense of the Southern Autonomous Government to sum up the battle of Yunnan, Guizhou, and Sichuan, all the middle and high-ranking generals of the National Defense Forces attended the meeting, at which all the generals expressed their views and summed up the problems exposed by the Chinese Defense Forces in this campaign.
Zhang Yuanzheng said: "Comrades, we must learn to sum up the war in the war, and not always eat the old book. After finishing speaking, he motioned to the generals below to summarize the problems of this battle.
Xu Zhi stood up and said: "The weapons that our army is now equipped with have very large requirements for logistics, our ammunition is consumed very quickly, our logistics are under great pressure, and our country's roads are greatly restricted. ā
Wang Yong, commander of the First Group Army, also said: "In this regard, our First Group Army also has deep feelings, and there is also the improper use of weapons and tactics by our troops, which has led to a sharp increase in the consumption of ammunition, in fact, we can avoid a lot of unnecessary consumption, as our army occupies more and more places, the battle line is also getting longer and longer, our troops have been slightly insufficient, although we have been increasing our strength in recent years, but with the further development of our army's front, more and more troops are needed." ā
Nie Shicheng said: "Although our unit did not participate in this battle, but I still have to say a few words, now we not only have to face the enemy at home, but also face the dynamics of foreigners at any time, seeing that we are getting stronger and stronger, foreigners cannot make us so comfortable and strong, they never want to see a strong China appear, this is not in their interests." ā
Zhang Yuanzheng listened to what Nie Shicheng said, and thought in his heart: "Yes, now is not the time to be happy. Shi Dakai was invited to participate in this meeting, only to see Shi Dakai raised his hand to signal: "Indeed, the combat effectiveness of the national defense force can be said to be the strongest, I witnessed all this with my own eyes in Sichuan, as Commander Nie said just now, I said, the intention of foreign powers to invade our China is clearly exposed, as far as we succeeded, occupied Nanjing, and established the Kingdom of Heaven, the British sent people to persuade the king of heaven, Hong Xiuquan, to support Hong Xiuquan as their spokesman in China, from this point can be seen the wolf ambition of foreign powers. ā
The audience fell silent, everyone was bowing their heads and pondering, looking at all this, Zhang Yuanzheng's heart was very pleased, and he stood up and said to everyone: "Now you know, we can't cheer for joy yet, now we can be said to be enemies on all sides, the navy has increased its investment in the research of warships, the navy must form combat effectiveness as soon as possible to resist the maritime dangers of the future powers, and we must also complete the reunification of China as soon as possible, so that we can better face the invasion of foreign enemies." ā
"The First and Second Group Armies will take a short rest and prepare for the next battle, and the Third Army will move closer to Fujian, and at the same time, it will also pay attention to preventing foreign fleets hovering on the coast of Fujian from interfering in it.
After the meeting, Zhang Yuanzheng thought that the naval school had been established for a long time, but there were no outstanding naval talents, and it seemed that he should send people out to find some naval talents who would be widely sung in later generations.
Wang Huaizhong sent a telegram from the southwest, saying that the bandits in the southwest had been basically wiped out, but due to the destruction of the war, the people in the southwest were living in a very difficult situation, and the people were hungry for food, so he requested support from the headquarters.
After receiving the telegram, Zhang Yuanzheng immediately came to Yang Huaifang to discuss the matter: "Huaifang, take a look, this is a telegram sent back by Wang Huaizhong asking for help, how much grain is there in our reserve warehouse now, support them as soon as possible." ā
Yang Huaifang said: "There is still a lot of surplus grain in the warehouse, the people in the southwest are now unstable, this problem is very serious, we must solve it as soon as possible, I will convene a meeting of the civil affairs department as soon as possible to discuss this matter." ā
After dealing with government affairs, Zhang Yuanzheng returned home tired, lying on the chair, his wife Lin Jinluan came over to massage Zhang Yuanzheng's head, looking at his wife, Zhang Yuanzheng felt particularly indebted to his wife, he was busy with various affairs all day long, and he did not accompany his wife more.
said to Lin Jinluan: "Madam, it's really hard for you to follow me, I haven't been with you much over the years, I'm really a derelict husband,"
Lin Jinluan said: "Husband, why do you say that, husband and wife are one, why do you say these things that are out of sight." ā
A night of lovesickness, hugging and sleeping,......
Everything was ready, and the final attack on the Taiping army should begin, and the curtain of the final battle in the south was opened.
