Long Yun's temper came up, he knocked on the table and said sharply: "I don't care who he is in the Cultural Revolution, but I must not agree to his request, this is simply bullying me No one in Yunnan, I just want to show him the reason." ”

"Chairman Long," Zhou Zhongyue also interjected: "I heard that among the people who were taken away was Professor Cao Ruizhi, Professor Cao is a well-known water conservancy expert in China and is very famous in the world. ”

Long Yunluo was stunned, Zhuang Jihua mentioned Cao Ruizhi in the telegram, but he didn't know who this was, so he didn't care, and after Zhou Zhongyue said this, he felt a little troublesome. He is a Yi person, so he naturally understands the affairs of the Yi people, and there are many Yi family branches, and no one can say whether it was the family branch that took this professor away; What's even more worrying is that the Yi people's vendetta is very cruel, this group of people is hiding in their own territory, if the Yi people treat him as their own people, I am afraid they are no longer alive now.

"I'll let Sun Du check it." Long Yun finally relented, but Zhou Zhongyue still reminded him with peace of mind: "Tell him to ensure his safety and send people to Kunming first." ”

However, the main purpose of their visit this time was to persuade Long Yun to cease fighting, and Hu Yingyou continued: "Zhizhou, Sun Du is the main force of our Yunnan army, if there is a loss, what will Kunming do?" ”

"Liu Wenhui doesn't have any strength, Zhuang Wenge has a guard of thousands of people under him, and he is still far away in Yucheng, what can he do with me?" Long Yun sneered and asked, "By the time they arrived at Huili, the rice noodles would have already been cold." ”

This rice noodle is a famous snack in Yunnan across the bridge rice noodle, a bowl of rice noodle looks calm, in fact, there is a thick layer of oil soup on it, do not know the inside of the provincial diners, if they are in a hurry to drink the soup, they will definitely suffer; So before eating this kind of rice noodles, you should first add the side dishes, cover them for a few minutes, wait for a few minutes, and when the dishes are cooked, the rice noodles will cool down.

It didn't seem to have any flaws, Hu Ying was speechless, and Zhou Zhongyue interjected: "What if Chiang Kai-shek asks you to stop?" ”

"Unless he agrees to my request." Long Yun is now very confident that the Liangguang Incident is about to break out, and Chiang Kai-shek needs him to outperform Liu Wenhui.

"If he agrees to your request, will you send troops?" Hu Ying looked at him and shook his head.

"No," Long Yun immediately replied: "Now Chiang Kai-shek's power is getting stronger and stronger, and the local forces can only confront him by uniting, and if he destroys both Guangzhou, I'm afraid it will be our turn in Yunnan next." So I can't be involved in this, neither side of the world. ”

"Isn't this the end, the result of your statement has no effect on Chiang Kai-shek, so you are also useless to Chiang Kai-shek, why does he still punish Liu Wenhui, why can't he deal with you?" Hu Ying was so anxious that she stomped her feet.

Long Yun didn't understand what Hu Ying meant, Hu Ying's real meaning was that Chiang Kai-shek had actually seen through his purpose, and compared to Liu Wenhui, he was a greater threat to Chiang Kai-shek, so Chiang Kai-shek could deal with him, he didn't show his attitude now, just because he didn't know if Zhuang Jihua could deal with him Long Yun.

Lu Han didn't understand either, but his intuition told him that it was dangerous for this war to continue, and what Hu Ying just said about Zhuang Jihua was not easy to mess with was very reasonable.

"Cousin, I think it's better to stop, Hu Lao and Zhou Lao have far-reaching knowledge,...。"

Before Lu Han's words were finished, Long Yun interrupted him: "Yongheng, I didn't want to fight, you all think I have lost my mind, in fact, I don't even want to go to Dechang." Long Yun stood up, walked back and forth in the room for two steps, and then stopped and said heavily: "Have you ever thought about it, if Chiang Kai-shek can successfully clean up Liangguang, who will he target next?" ”

Hu Ying, Lu Han, and Zhou Zhongyue were stunned.

"It can only be us, look at the map, by then south of the Yangtze River, there will be me and He Jian left, Zhuang Jihua successfully entered Sichuan, Guizhou has been solved by him, we don't show some strength, I'm afraid we will go to Nanjing next year."

Long Yun's words were very heavy, but they were not unreasonable, Hu Ying and Zhou Zhongyue were speechless, Lu Han thought for a while and said: "Since this is the case, then we won't say anything anymore, but, cousin, in order to prevent accidents, I will go to southern Yunnan and organize the security regiment there into troops." ”

Long Yun stared at him, thinking about his purpose, don't look at them as cousins, the two also had a lot of conflicts, the most dangerous one was to abolish the division and change the brigade, Lu Han and several other division commanders even came to the point of breaking with Long Yun, fortunately Hu Ying came forward to persuade them, the break did not happen in the end, and Long Yun finally controlled Yunnan.

Lu Han looked at Long Yun very calmly, this time he really didn't have any other thoughts, Long Yun turned a lot of circles in his mind, and suddenly he smiled, now his rule in Yunnan is relatively consolidated, Lu Han's foundation is the same as him, they are all Yi people with more sinicization, but..."It's okay, the army should also be expanded." Long Yun nodded.

Internal reunification has been achieved temporarily, but the external war is not going well, and it should be very unsmooth.

Sun Du's attack on Huili was very unsuccessful, and at first they were able to get close to the city wall, and even rushed to the city wall for a time, but then they were counterattacked by the escorts, and their counterattack was extremely fierce, and the troops who rushed into the city were quickly driven out. Then the troops in the city adjusted their defensive deployment, and Sun Du was never able to get close to the city wall again.

An Enpu, who had returned halfway from Dechang, attacked Baolin Mountain even more severely, so that the officers and men of the Model Brigade, who had always been tenacious, were a little daunted by Baolin Mountain, and they felt that they were not attacking, but defending. The artillery fire on the mountains was fiercer than theirs, the machine guns were more numerous than theirs, and the fighting ** they were stronger. The process of each of their attacks was the same, the first half was very smooth, and when they saw hope halfway up the mountain, the rain of bullets coming down the mountain drove them down, and then they began to counterattack and pursue.

No matter how Long Yun scolded in Kunming, Sun Du couldn't help it, and An Enpu couldn't help it, and the extremely high casualties made them not want to fight.

The requirements of the generals in front did not work here in Long Yun, Long Yun insisted that they lay down Huili, Long Yun is now difficult to ride a tiger, Chiang Kai-shek has been ignoring him, and the strength of the Dian army was exposed in the battle of Huili, if it is withdrawn like this, Long Yun can fully imagine who Chiang Kai-shek will deal with next.

But Sun Du and An Enpu and other generals jointly asked for reinforcements, Long Yun couldn't, as long as a brigade was drawn from the Kunming garrison and several security regiments in the Zhaotong area rushed to Huili, these security regiments were trained by An Enpu in Zhaotong, although they were not as good as the regular army, but they were still stronger than the ordinary militia groups, and these troops added up to six or seven thousand people, during this period, the battlefield of Huili was deadlocked.

As soon as the garrison left, Zhuang Jihua's ultimatum arrived, in which Zhuang Jihua reiterated his first four conditions, but reduced the compensation claim to 6 million, and the rest remained unchanged, and this matter was limited to 24 hours to reply.

Long Yun felt a deep crisis after getting the ultimatum, he thought for a while, and sent a telegram to Liu Xiang, he had no contact with Liu Xiang before, and now he had no choice but to take one step at a time.

In the telegram, Long Yun accused Liu Wenhui of deceiving people too much and inciting conflicts between Sichuan and Yunnan, and he suggested that Sichuan and Yunnan join forces to expel Liu Wenhui, and then the Yunnan army withdrew to Yunnan and never wanted an inch of land in Xikang.

Of course, Liu Xiang knew who Long Yun was going to join forces with him against, and he said lightly to Zhang Sike: "This dragon barbarian, before Zhuang Wenge really started, he panicked, and this battle would have been lost if he didn't fight." ”

Zhang Sike nodded yes, even Fu Chang, who had always looked at Zhuang Jihua unpleasantly, thought that Long Yun might not be able to support it this time, but Qiao Yifu said: "Fu Gong, I think I can remind Long Zhizhou and let him withdraw the army now and admit defeat." Otherwise.... ”

"Otherwise, Zhuang Wenge will turn around against us after he cleans up Long Zhizhou." Zhang Sike continued his words, and Qiao Yifu nodded.

"But we can't deal with Zhuang Wenge," Zhang Sike said: "Zhuang Wenge has 50,000 horses in his hands, this time he mobilized a maximum of 30,000, and the remaining 20,000 are in Yucheng. Even if we attack Yucheng, what will Yang Sen, Deng Xihou, and Li Jiayu do, the arsenal in Yucheng can produce 30,000 rifles every month, whether it is Chiang Kai-shek or Yang Sen, Deng Xihou, and Li Jiayu, they will definitely not allow this arsenal base to fall into our hands, and I am afraid that we will rescue Long Zhizhou ashore, but we ourselves will fall into the water. ”

"That just shows that we must have a good relationship with Long Yun, and we can deal with each other in the future." Qiao Yifu said while thinking about it, they all understood the meaning of Zhang Sike's words to save Long Yun ashore, once they made a move, Zhuang Wenge would inevitably return to save Yucheng, so that Long Yun might reach an agreement with Chiang Kai-shek, and Zhuang Wenge would unite with Yang Sen and them to kill Liu Xiang first, but Qiao Yifu still thought that saving Long Yun was a short-term threat, and not saving Long Yun was a long-term threat, and he should pull Long Yun for the long-term.

"You can remind Long Zhizhou and tell him that we can't deal with Zhuang Wenge, and it is better for him to accept Zhuang Wenge's conditions, and stay in Qingshan without worrying about running out of firewood." Zhang Sike finally said as if he had come to a conclusion.

Liu Xiang's kind reminder was quickly sent to Long Yun, but Long Yun was stunned, they can't help Zhuang Wenge, what does this mean, Zhuang Wenge's military strength surpasses them? It's impossible, Liu Xiang is still the commander-in-chief of the Sichuan Army and the chairman of the Sichuan Provincial Political Axe, if Zhuang Wenge was stronger than him, Chiang Kai-shek would have ousted him from power long ago.

Long Yun was not sure what Liu Xiang meant, he invited Hu Ying to discuss, Hu Ying read Liu Xiang's telegram, and immediately said to him: "Order Sun Du to withdraw his troops immediately, and you can send a representative to Dechang to negotiate with Zhuang Cultural Revolution." ”

After Hu Ying finished speaking, Long Yun was still hesitating, and he couldn't help but say in a hurry: "Long Zhizhou, what are you hesitating about, Liu Fucheng's telegram said very clearly, he has more than 100,000 troops but can't deal with Zhuang Wenge, that means that Zhuang Wenge's comprehensive strength has surpassed Liu Fucheng's strength, is it just fighting the army?" ”

Long Yun was a little awake at this time, and he immediately telegraphed Sun Du to withdraw his troops, and at the same time telegraphed Zhuang Jihua of Dechang that he agreed to negotiate on his four mention. But at this time, twenty-four hours had passed, and Sun Du wanted to leave but found that it was difficult for him to get out of the way.

On 1 June, Chen Jitang, Li Zongren, Bai Chongxi, Deng Yanda, Li Jishen, and others announced in Guangzhou the establishment of a military committee and the establishment of a military committee to resist and save the people, with Chen Jitang as chairman and commander-in-chief, Li Zongren as deputy commander-in-chief, Bai Chongxi as chief of staff, and Deng Yanda and Li Jishen as members of the Military Commission.
