Chapter 284: Yan Xishan was a little anxious
Regarding Lao Jiang's calculations, Feng Tian seemed to have a mirror in his heart, he didn't want to call back to reason with him or tell the other party his strategy, Chairman Jiang was willing to calculate, he could only pinch his nose and admit it, what can you do with him?
Chairman Chiang is in a position to do things that are ostensibly high-sounding, although everyone understands the calculations in their hearts, so what, they are speculations that cannot be put on the table. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Feng Tian didn't want to have too many entanglements in domestic affairs, let alone conflict with Chairman Jiang, so he could only bear it silently.
Compared with other leaders, Chairman Chiang was a little less bold and a little more calculating, which was one of the reasons why he succeeded and one of the reasons why he could not succeed in the end.
When there was no invasion of the country and the warlords were fighting, Chairman Chiang was just calculating, and he was still calculating at this time, ignoring the interests of the nation, and his mind was really small.
Fengtian doesn't care, but someone cares.
The senior officials of the Northland Volunteer Army called one phone after another, all for this matter.
Feng Yong said angrily: "Commander Feng, what is this old Jiang going to do?" Didn't he understand that the current situation would try his best to promote the situation of King De and the Kwantung Army attacking the Northern Volunteers in the north and south, and what good would it do him for the Kwantung Army to defeat the Northern Volunteers? ”
Feng Tian had no choice but to explain: "Don't ignore him, we have this battle plan anyway." ”
"That's the thing, but the taste is different, there's no such thing."
Just dissuaded Feng Yong, Huang Xiansheng's phone call came in, and he didn't speak angrily: "What kind of heart does this guy have, if he doesn't support it, he will add fuel to the fire, and the position of the national government is not correct." In my opinion, this Chairman Chiang is clearly uneasy and kind, for fear that the Northland Volunteers will win this battle, which side is his position on? ”
Yes, no one is a fool, and they can see that Chairman Jiang is not well-intentioned.
What can Feng Tian say, he can only persuade him with good words and appease his subordinates.
It is normal for the Northland Volunteers to be unhappy internally, and even Yan Xishan is unhappy.
It is natural for Yan Xishan to be unhappy, because he has a stake in Fengtian, and now the relationship between the north and the west of the mountains is back-to-back.
The sealing of the northern land is over, and there is no one at the north gate of the west of the mountain to shelter him from the wind and rain, and he Yan Xishan will not have a good time, this is obvious.
If the Kwantung Army had invaded the depths of the northern land this time, the northern gate to the west of the mountain would have been opened.
Therefore, the safety of the north is closely related to the west of the mountain.
You say, can Yan Xishan not be in a hurry?
Otherwise, Yan Laoxi vigorously gave Feng Tian a word, saying that he would send troops to support the Beidi Volunteers, but he was really worried that Feng Tian would not be able to withstand the attack of the Kwantung Army.
Yan Xishan is a big warlord, and he is also one of the few major warlords who have survived so far, so he naturally has two brushes to get to this point.
On the surface, he is concerned about the safety of the Northland, but in fact, he is most concerned about the interests of the west of the mountain.
Throughout Yan Xishan's life, he is really cunning and cunning, and he will never care about the safety of the north for no reason.
In a sentence of Yan Xishan: "Wear a leather jacket in winter and an undershirt in summer, and you can come whatever you need." He tried his best to start from the purpose of preserving himself, chose to maximize his interests, and once staged "dancing on three eggs", making Yan Xishan a chameleon in the political arena and a tumbler in the officialdom of the Republic of China.
Yan Xishan's philosophy throughout his life has always run through the word "Zhong", which in the final analysis is the word survival. "Stick to both ends and knock on it", and act at the "just right" time, try to make the contradictions not contradictory, so as to facilitate their own existence.
Yan Xishan wrote a couplet in his diary in 1937: "Only in the middle is good, and when there is nowhere to be good, it is good." Step on the right track. ”
At this time, Yan Xishan and his right-hand men gathered together to discuss the situation in the north. Present at the meeting were Yang Aiyuan, Xu Yongchang, Sun Chu, Fu Zuoyi, Zhao Chengshou, Zhou Jue, Yang Xiaoou, Li Shengda, Wang Jingguo, Yang Yaofang, and so on.
Yan Xishan, who was sitting in the first place, looked around and said indignantly: "Now the north has become the north gate that blocks the Japanese army from approaching the west of the mountain. This time, the Kwantung Army invaded the Northland on a large scale, and the situation was so critical, but Chairman Chiang issued such an order, didn't he hope that the Northland would perish sooner? Yan Xishan blew his beard and glared, holding the newspaper in his hand and shaking vigorously.
Fu Zuoyi, commander of the 35th Army, said: "Chief Yan's worries are not unreasonable, the Kwantung Army's attack on the Beidi Volunteer Army this time is different from the past, and the strength is quite strong. As far as the current strength of the Northland Volunteer Army is concerned, it is difficult to say whether it can stand it. Now, with the sudden factor of King De in the north, the situation of the Northland Volunteers is quite dangerous. People who have no long-term concerns must have near-term worries, and the west of the mountain must plan early. ”
Fu Zuoyi did not make an evaluation of the order of the Nationalist Government, and Yan Xishan could say that Fu Zuoyi, as a subordinate, was not good at making too many evaluations on this issue.
"Chief Yan, the situation in the Northland is so bad, we must pay attention to it and not sit idly by. According to Fengtian's statement, sooner or later the Japanese will occupy the north of the river, and by that time, the west of the mountain will become the front line, and it will be difficult to deal with the enemy on several sides. Xu Yongchang also couldn't sit still, and said to Yan Xishan.
Yan Xishan's subordinates gossiped and suggested one after another, asking Yan Xishan to find a way.
"Hey, I talked to Feng Tian on the phone many times, and proposed that Shanxi send two divisions of troops to support the north, but this guy actually refused, what do you think I can do? I don't know what this little guy thinks, this time the Kwantung Army is really here, but it is not the strength of a division and regiment before, there are more than 200,000 troops, you say, can you still withstand the closure of the sky this time? Yan Xishan hated iron a little, and thought to himself, I have never been so generous, old man, and I ended up eating a closed door.
Fu Zuoyi frowned and said: "Is it that the previous war was too smooth, it can be said that Fengtian has not been defeated so far, perhaps because of this, he is arrogant and commits the mistake of underestimating the enemy." If that's the case, the Northlands will be in danger. ”
When Fu Zuoyi said this, Yan Xishan was a little nervous, which is a common problem among young people.
Ah, maybe Feng Tian is really proud of his consecutive victories.
"The safety of the west of the mountain is related to that of the east and the north, and if only the east is enemy, the west of the mountain is enough to resist the attack of the Japanese army. However, it is a bit dangerous to be attacked on both sides. Therefore, the Northland Volunteers cannot be defeated, and the west of the mountain must prepare in advance. For now, let's observe, in case of an accident, the west of the mountain must send troops to support the northern land to prevent the northwest gate of the mountain from opening. General Fu, the 35th Army must be ready to send troops at any time. ”
"Yes, Junzuo, the 35th Army is ready to send troops at any time." Fu Zuoyi stood up and took the order. (To be continued.) )
