The heads of various departments of the headquarters were waiting in the headquarters, and Zhuang Jihuazai saw the figure of Li Zhilong in the waiting crowd, his face was full of smiles, and the two exchanged eyes silently. Most of the commanders of the qВ5 and c0M headquarters have been replaced, and Li Zongren introduced them to Zhuang Jihua one by one, and Zhuang Jihua paid the most attention to Zhu Ruoyu, the head of the Hubei Station of the Military Command, and Yan Fu, the head of the Hubei Station of the Central Command, as well as Guo Kaiming, the director of the Intelligence Department of the Theater, all of whom were stationed in the Fifth Theater by the Central Committee, and it was also Chiang Kai-shek's eyes that stared at the Fifth Theater.

The atmosphere at the scene was very harmonious, Zhuang Jihua chatted for a few decades, and then went in with Li Zongren, everyone looked at each other, and they also dispersed in a hurry, Zhu Ruoyu walked to Li Zhilong seemingly very casually.

"Li Gaoshen, I didn't expect you to be gone, didn't you go to western Henan?"

"There, rumors, pure rumors." Li Zhilong smiled, but he was secretly vigilant in his heart, the military commander has a lot of influence in the Fifth War Zone, and all the smuggling stations in the Fifth War Zone belong to the military commander, in addition to reaching out to logistics and popular mobilization: "Isn't Station Chief Zhu in Yichang?" When did you get to the old estuary? "Yesterday, Commander Zhuang is one of the most respected people in Director Zai, and I have to come to greet him when he takes office." Zhu Ruo smiled foolishly.

Although the military commander's influence in the Fifth Theater is great, it is also suppressed by Li Zongren, and the military commander cannot openly operate in the Fifth Theater, so it can only take the form of an anti-smuggling station, so the military commander welcomes Zhuang Jihua's arrival, and more importantly, the relationship between Zhuang Jihua and Chen Lifu has broken down, and he will definitely support the military commander in the Fifth Theater.

However, Zhu Ruoyu is not only for these, Dai Li's instructions clearly want to monitor Zhuang Jihua's activities, especially the relationship with Deng Yanda. After Deng Yan arrived in the Fifth Theater, Zheng Zheng and Chen Mingshu also came to the Fifth Theater one after another, where they held guerrilla training classes and cadre training classes in western Henan and northern Hubei and carried out social reform and reserve building in the First Fifth Theater.

However, Zhu Ruoyu also knew that it was very difficult and dangerous to monitor Zhuang Jihua. Zhuang Jihua is different from Li Zongren, he was born in Huangpu, and he has a high prestige in the Kuomintang army dominated by the Huangpu system, and Lian Lisa is very jealous of him.

Li Zhilong said calmly with a smile on his face: "Commander Zhuang attaches great importance to the direction of military reunification, and he is also an old friend of the director of the interception bureau, and I believe that he will support the work of military unification." ”

Of course, Zhu Ruoyu will not fully believe it, but it is obvious that with the arrival of Zhuang Jihua, Li Zhilong, a hardcore Zhuang family, will definitely rise and rise, and he is likely to serve in the Fifth War Zone.

The two had a casual chat, Li Zongren's adjutant came over and asked Li Niolong to go in, Li Zhilong apologized to Zhu Ruoyu and went in with the adjutant, Zhu Ruoyu looked at his back in the sun.

After Li Zhilong entered, Zhuang Jihua, Li Zongren, and Xu Zuyi were sitting around a steaming casserole, Li Zhilong sniffed hard, and couldn't help but shout: "Dog meat, good things."

"Come, sit here." Zhuang Jihua stood up and moved the stool next to him to the casserole, and Li Zhilong was not polite, so he walked to the table and sat down.

Li Zongren knew in his heart that Li Zhilong's appearance here today must have a purpose, he is a core member of the Zhuang family, and to some extent he can be said to be the second person in the Zhuang family.

A few people talked and laughed, a pot of dog meat was almost wiped out, Zhuang Jihua wiped his mouth and put down his chopsticks: "Duke De just said that the Jiangbei Command is a place for the elderly, I don't agree with this." In my opinion, the Jiangbei command still has a lot to do. ”

Li Zongren and Xu Zuyi exchanged glances, and they knew that business had begun. Zhuang Jihua continued: "From the current war situation, the whole situation has been settled, after the Battle of Midway and the Battle of Northern Burma, the Japanese offensive in the Pacific has been contained; In the European battlefield, the victory of the Soviet army in the Battle of Stalingrad was a foregone conclusion, and the victory in this battle not only reversed the situation on the Soviet-German battlefield, but also reversed the situation in the whole of Europe. This judgment is not surprising, Li Zongren and Xu Zuyi were not moved in the slightest, they just listened.

"When it comes to the Chinese battlefield, we must carry out a counteroffensive, and before I came, I exchanged views with the chairman of the committee, and I believed that the counteroffensive should start from the five theaters, first eliminate the main force of the Japanese 11th Army entrenched in Wuhan, and then advance eastward, and the 15th theater should cooperate to recover Xuzhou. In this process, the Second War Zone and the Eighth War Zone were responsible for holding back the Japanese troops in Suiyuan, Shanxi, and Inner Mongolia. Degong, Jiangbei's commander Gao's role is here. "Once our army launches an offensive, the Japanese army can only draw troops from North China, how to prompt our army to dispatch the main force in Xishan and the northwest, Degong, this important task can only be completed by you."

Zhuang Jihua's concerns were justified, Yan Xishan and the local forces in the northwest would not listen to Chiang Kai-shek, and under the guiding ideology of preserving strength, they would probably let the Japanese army withdraw, and then take over the territory by the way. There are more than 100,000 Japanese troops in Shanxi, but if you want Yan Xishan to send troops, I can't either. Li Zongren frowned. Yes, if Yan Xishan does not send troops, the territory will be occupied by the Eighth Route Army. Zhuang Jihua reminded.

Li Zongren smiled bitterly and sighed: "During the Cultural Revolution, Yan Xishan had contact with the Japanese, he would negotiate with Japan, let the Japanese go, and he would take over the territory." If you want to hold back the Japanese army, you might as well go and find the Eighth Route Army. ”

Zhuang Jihua couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, Yan Xishan actually had contact with the Japanese, which was a bit unexpected to him, he frowned and thought about it: "Duke De, once our army captures Shandong, the Japanese army is bound to abandon Shanxi and fully retreat from Shanxi, so that the strength of the Japanese army in North China is bound to skyrocket, increasing the difficulty of our army's counteroffensive."

"Cultural Revolution, if the various theaters can cooperate with each other, of course it is the best, but the actual situation is not like this" Xu Zuyi said with some bitterness: "Just like this Japanese raid on Suixian, let alone the Ninth Theater, the Western Hubei Group that is close at hand will sit idly by, let alone the Ninth Theater, if they move earlier, General Zhang Zizhong may not be sacrificed." ”

During the Suizao Campaign, the 28th Army near Yichang in western Hubei Province and other three central armies, but no matter how Li Zongren gave orders, these three armies just did not move, and Li Zongren had no choice.

"One lock, only one key, my key can't open the Second War Zone and the Eighth War Zone, but Degong can." Zhuang Jihua looked at Li Zongren sincerely: "Know it with affection, move it with reason, and lure it with profit; Fu Zuoyi in the Eighth War Zone should be able to obey orders, and the key is the Second War Zone. Yan Xishan's abacus played well, but I am afraid that it will not be as he intended, the Eighth Route Army will adopt the same method, and he will lose more than he gains. "Except for the World War II Zone, the Duke of De can ask the chairman for the administrative power of Hanzhong and promote social reform in Hanzhong. And push this reform north of the Yellow River. "Degong, you can't just focus on the current war situation, look far, and see the aftermath." Zhuang Jihua accentuated his tone on the two words after the war.

Li Zongren and Xu Zuyi became solemn at the same time, they understood what Zhuang Jihua meant, which was to remind them to pay attention to the layout after the war. Li Zongren thought about it for a while, but he still didn't understand, Yan Xishan regarded Shanxi as his own independent kingdom, and no one would be allowed to interfere, let alone the northwest, and the Gui family had no foundation at all.

Xu Yueyi heard something, after the war, after the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, the domestic political situation evolved into a confrontation between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party, in the Guoliang Party, after the baptism of the Anti-Japanese War, the development of the southwest, the strength must have jumped to an unprecedented height, Chiang Kai-shek led the Anti-Japanese War, and the prestige will also rise to an unprecedented height.

Judging from the situation of the current swallowing, after the War of Resistance Against Japan, the small local forces will be eliminated, and the only ones left are the Gui faction and the Jin army, and the rest may be the local forces in the southwest, and the others can only rely on the major factions.

"If Yan Xishan is unwilling to move, he can let Hu Xiannan send troops into Shanxi, and the Fourteenth Group Army of Zhongtiao Mountain, Duke De, skillfully use these forces to force Yan Xishan to send troops." Zhuang Jihua didn't wait for them to ask, and then put forward his own suggestions.

Li Zongren's eyes lit up, but then they dimmed again, Zhuang Jihua understood his concerns, so he smiled: "Duke De, it depends on how you negotiate with the chairman." I think the chairman of the NPC National Committee is very willing to see the Central Army appear in Shanxi. ”

Li Zongren smiled, this is a real smile, this meaning is too obvious, and it is definitely effective, he stood up: "Cultural Revolution, I want to take some people from the Fifth War Zone, what do you think?"

Zhuang Jihua smiled slightly, Li Zhilong stood up and took out a piece of paper from his pocket and handed it to Li Zongren, Li Zongren took it and looked at it, it said that there were seven or eight department chiefs including the deputy chief of staff and the director of the political department, and there were also more than a dozen departments of Che Zhan 0 These officers are distributed in operations, logistics, intelligence, and popular mobilization, and even the commander of the brigade directly under the theater, the head of the guard regiment, and the chief of the Laohekou police are among them. "Cultural Revolution, you're going to have a big blood change." Li Zongren smiled and handed the slip to Xu Zuyi. "What should be changed must be changed" Zhuang Jihua blinked, and said nonchalantly: "The responsibility for the Suizao Battle cannot only be borne by Degong, they are also responsible." ”

After finishing speaking, he looked at Li Zongren with anticipation, and Li Zongren sank: "Okay, I accept it, but during the Cultural Revolution, the 21st Group Army was in Dabie Mountain, and there was a shortage of all kinds of materials. ”

In the past few years, Liao Lei first, and Li Pinxian after his death, the 21st Group Army vigorously opened up the Dabie Mountain base area and firmly occupied the Dabie Mountain base area. But the difficulties they face are also very great, especially the extreme shortage of weapons and ammunition, even if Li Zongren serves as the commander of the theater, there is no guarantee, but Li Zongren feels that after Zhuang Jihua comes, there must be a way.

"Of course," Zhuang Jihua understood in his heart that Li Zongren had sold him a good job in personnel, and he had to make corresponding returns, and the 21 st Group Army was one of them: "I talked to the chairman of the committee that the Air Force has three brigades to be assigned to the Fifth Theater of Operations, and they can be airdropped and replenished to the base areas behind enemy lines.
