The Spring Festival is approaching, the princes who attended various meetings have left Nanjing and returned to their respective nests, Yan Xishan saw that the wind was not in the right direction, and had already quietly returned to Taiyuan to be bored, Feng Yuxiang, who was most disarmed and unhappy, simply rushed to Henan Baiquan to recuperate, Li Zongren returned to Wuhan to convene a meeting of the generals under his command, Li Jishen returned to Guangzhou, and immediately went to Wuzhou to discuss with Huang Shaohong, chairman of Guangxi Province.

Zhu Peide was entrusted with the title of commander-in-chief, and reluctantly returned to Nanchang to command all units to launch an attack on the Red Army of Zhumao in Jinggangshan. After a series of hard battles until Chinese New Year's Eve, Zhang Xingren Brigade of Wang Jun's 12th Division and Wang Jiejun Brigade of Zhang Huizan's 18th Division, which attacked the Jinggangshan area, attacked east and west, and it took a lot of effort to occupy the Huangyang Boundary, the Red Fifth Army led by Peng Dehuai and Huang Gongliu left Ninggang, Li Can led more than 2,000 Red Army troops to the north and disappeared into the mountains, and then news came that Zhu De and ** of the Red Fourth Army had arrived at Ruijin Huangbai Market in Jiangxi, Yiqian and occupied Ruijin County, and the main force of the Zhu Mao Red Army entered the defense area of Liu Shiyi's independent seventh division, Only then did Zhu Peide put his mind at ease and take a breath, sent a long-distance phone call to An Yi in Nanjing to greet him, and then rushed to Lao Nanchang with his family to celebrate the New Year together.

On Chinese New Year's Eve, An Yi asked Chen Yu to bring two boats of tobacco, alcohol, and duck sausages, and together with Hu Jialin, Gu Changfeng, and dozens of brothers under his command who were studying at the military academy, he went to the ** camp to visit the officers and men of the independent division and have a good Spring Festival with the brothers, while he followed Chen Cheng, former commander of the garrison command and now deputy commander of the 11th Division, to the garrison unit, and together with more than a dozen teachers and friends, including Cai Zhonghu, commander of the 7th Brigade of the 3rd Division, and Yu Jishi, commander of the Guard Brigade, who were on vacation, to comfort the soldiers and have a Chinese New Year's Eve dinner together.

At the wine table, An Yi smiled in a low voice and asked Chen Cheng how was he doing in the Eleventh Division? Chen Cheng shook his head and said helplessly that the division commander Cao Wanshun would not let go of the military power at all, and he was angry every day like an ornament, if it wasn't for the principal's thousands of instructions to let him master this Zhejiang army, I am afraid that he would have returned to the military academy to teach with An Yi a long time ago.

An Yi knew that Chen Cheng was very dissatisfied with the transfer of the garrison commander from the capital lieutenant general to the 11th Division as the deputy division commander, and he had left Shanghai in a fit of anger, but Chiang Kai-shek personally sent someone to recall him and teach him that it was difficult for him to take office in the 11th Division, and now it seems that it is not going well, but An Yi believes that with Chen Cheng's ability, it is not a problem to finally override Cao Wanshun to gain control of the 11th Division.

After eating the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, An Yi immediately rushed back to Gong Qian's house, and he was so busy for a few days later.

During the Spring Festival, An Yi spent almost every day in and around Nanjing, but on the afternoon of the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, he went to the ** camp and played a football match with the brothers of the independent division.

Due to the fact that Wu's mother returned to her hometown in Shaoxing for the New Year and did not come back during this time, Ye Qing also returned to her home in Hangzhou for the holiday, and the attentive An Yi would take time out every day to accompany the lonely Gong Qian to spend time together, as long as he was free, An Yi would accompany Gong Qian to cook together, drink a cup together, clean up and tidy up the tableware together, and then put on the tea set to drink tea and chat together, and occasionally play the accordion and sing songs, and the days were very fulfilling.

These days, Gong Qian is very comfortable and comfortable, often amused by An Yi can't help but smile, unconsciously each other's emotions are getting deeper and deeper, as if they have lost something if they don't see each other for a day, until the end of the holiday, Wu's mother came back with a full of New Year's goods, An Yi moved back to the small building of the military academy and began to get busy.

On the afternoon of 20 February, An Yi, who was giving a trench construction theory class to more than 500 infantry students of the military academy, saw Chen Yu standing at the door of the auditorium, looking restless and sweating profusely, as if there was something urgent.

The Yueyang Intelligence Station sent an urgent telegram, and the 15th Division of Xia Wei, which was stationed in Yueyang, quickly assembled at the railway station at noon and urgently mobilized a special train to the direction of Changsha, and Ye Qi's 52nd Division in Linxiang also took a special train southward and appeared at the Yueyang Railway Station. His subordinates felt that something was wrong, and immediately contacted Changsha Station, and learned that He Jian's 19th Division had closed the camp for rectification in the past two days, and it was strictly forbidden to go out, and the three supplementary regiments outside the city also had abnormal movements. Based on the above, I estimate that the news of General Lu Diping's acceptance of our batch of arms was leaked, which finally triggered a fierce reaction from the various armies of the Gui family, and the Second Army that was being deployed would be in big trouble. ”

"What's the news at Wuhan Station?" An Yi hurriedly asked.

"Except for the secret telegram sent the day before yesterday to report that He Jian had left Wuhan and Li Zongren and his wife had rushed to Nanjing by boat, there was still no further news. Chen Yu replied.

An Yi thought for a while and ordered in a low voice: "Send a telegram to Jinan immediately, ask him to inform Lao Yang and Huanqi, prepare in advance, and the garrison division will quietly go to the weapons test site of the research institute in the south of Gao'an in the name of training; ordered Lao Ding's special brigade to immediately send a reconnaissance detachment to closely reconnoiter between the four counties of eastern Hunan and Changsha. Ordered Xia Jian's two motorized brigades to quietly enter combat readiness. At the same time, he called the Wuhan intelligence station again, and ordered Lao Xu to send people to the railway station and dock to take a look, if the Gui department really wanted to take action against Lu Diping, he would definitely strictly control the station and dock, just in case of emergency. ”

"Understood!" Chen Yu saluted and strode away.

An Yi returned to the podium, continued the class quietly, and hurried to the education director's office after class, and pulled Zhang Zhizhong, who was communicating with several foreign instructors, into the inner room.

Zhang Zhizhong frowned and looked at An Yi inexplicably: "What is such a gaffe?" ”

"Oh no, General Lu Diping's Second Army may be in trouble, the 15th Division of Xia Wei stationed in Yueyang and the 52nd Division of Ye Qi in Linxiang all left for Changsha at noon, and the 18th Division of Zhang Huizan, which had just returned to Changsha from the Jinggangshan area to rest, was probably also kept in the dark. Teacher, the matter is urgent, you can use the school radio to send an urgent telegram to the principal who returned to Xikou Province, although others can't come back in Fenghua for the time being, you can deal with it early! An Yi reported in a low voice.

Zhang Zhizhong was taken aback: "This is a big deal!" Without an order from the central government during the dispatch period, who would dare to transfer troops without authorization? Didn't Li Delin just arrive in Nanjing yesterday? This...... Is the message accurate? ”

"It's true! Don't ask the teacher how the news came from, it's a long story, I'll tell you slowly when I go back, if you are worried that the news is unreliable, send it in the name of the student, keep it strictly confidential, and this matter must not be leaked. An Yi said anxiously.

"Good! I'll go now, don't go home later, if the principal calls back, I won't be able to find you. Zhang Zhizhong wiped away the cold sweat oozing from his forehead, and hurriedly went out to the confidential room.

Half an hour later, Zhang Zhizhong returned and handed a telegram to An Yi: "The principal ordered you to rush to the general headquarters immediately for a meeting, and it is estimated that the people from the Political Department and the General Staff Department have also received a secret telegram from the principal, alas...... This matter is so troublesome, if you can't get it, you really have to fight, and finally it has only been a truce for half a year, and the war is going to burn again, and the spring ploughing is about to make a living! ”

"What's the solution? It's going to rain, and the mother is going to get married, so we can only go with the flow. However, I think that it is better to fight early than late, and the mentor of the Gui family is also very clear, and if they let them conquer and extort in the Lianghu area, it will be the biggest disaster. You have also seen that in the past few days of the Spring Festival, the gate of the central government has been full of civilians from the two lakes who have come to redress their grievances, and the students have to vacate a warehouse at the company's wharf for these hundreds of displaced people to live. ”

An Yi shook his head helplessly, said goodbye and left in a hurry, Zhang Zhizhong sighed and suddenly remembered something, hurriedly called An Yi, and sent his own driver to send An Yi to the general headquarters.

In the small conference room of the General Headquarters, Zhang Qun, political secretary of the Ministry of Military Affairs, Cao Haosen, director of the Army Administration, Lin Wei, chief of staff, Ge Dingyuan, director of the Judge Advocate General's Department, Chen Shaokuan, director of the Navy Administration, He Yingqin, director of training and deputy chief of staff, Ge Jingen, deputy chief of staff, Liu Guang, director of the first hall, Ruan Zhaochang, director of the second hall, and others had all arrived.

Wang Lun reached out and took An Yi's cigarette, took out a cigarette, and whispered in An Yi's ear, "Do you know who got the news first?" ”

"Who?" An Yi asked in some surprise.

"I know, why do I ask you? General Jing Zhi just scolded the director of the Second Department, saying that the espionage work of the Second Department was seriously derelict in his duties, which embarrassed Brother Shao Wen (Ruan Zhaochang), and we were embarrassed to say anything. Wang Lun shook his head and continued to smoke.

An Yi pursed his lips and said disdainfully: "Director Ruan's intelligence team has just been established, and he hasn't even allocated funds to others, so why blame others?" Director Ruan is also a general who came out of the first phase of Baoding and the third phase of Lu University, and he became the director of education of the Army University nine years ago. Nonsense! ”

"Tuk Tuk ......"

He Yingqin knocked on the table twice in displeasure, glared at An Yi hatefully and shouted silence, raised his head and glanced at more than 20 generals who loudly reported the movements of the Gui army, severely condemned the Gui army for seriously violating military discipline and the regulations jointly made by the Dispatch Committee, and then said very authoritatively:

"The information on the unauthorized movement of the 15th Division of Xia Wei, the 52nd Division of Ye Qi, and the 16th Division of the Hunan Army, which is in the process of being reorganized and has not yet been completed, has been confirmed, and the commander-in-chief has ordered to immediately discuss this sudden incident, and call the Wuhan Political Branch to seriously inquire about it, prohibiting the Gui army from killing friendly troops and acting perversely. Ladies and gentlemen, I would like to invite Vice Minister Ge to discuss the response plan, and we must come up with a complete plan tonight, just in case! ”

Ge Jingen smiled at An Yi, who was sitting diagonally opposite, and when he saw An Yi shaking his head slightly, he stood up willingly, and put forward the long-existing response plan, and the audience listened quietly, with a very grim expression, only An Yi knew the content of the plan and didn't care, thinking in his heart Who would send a telegram of inquiry to Wuhan at this critical time? The Lianghu region is solid under the management of the Gui system, and has been outside the rule of the central government for a long time, and Commander-in-Chief Jiang has long wanted to meddle in this land of fish and rice, and I wish that the Gui army would now surround and disarm Lu Diping's Hunan army, and the bigger and worse the matter, the more beneficial it will be to the central government.

The meeting was held in a tense discussion, and An Yi did not say a word from beginning to end. You must know that one of the two plans being discussed at the moment is from An Yi's hand, and there is still a more confidential plan formulated by An Yi and revised by Chiang Kai-shek that has not been announced, and I am afraid that only He Yingqin and Ge Jingen know the inside story among the generals present, so no matter how it is discussed, An Yi is just listening.

At the same time, Chiang Kai-shek, who was far away in his hometown of Xikou, also held an emergency meeting in Xuedou Temple, Chen Lifu, Yang Yongtai and other more than ten think tanks and henchmen gathered around, Chen Lifu introduced the information and confirmed the situation again, Chiang Kai-shek said quite excitedly:

"Ladies and gentlemen, the fuse has finally been successfully lit, and it is time for the Gui family's misdeeds to be liquidated! Yesterday, Wang Zhaoming sent me a telegram from Shanghai, asking me to have a good talk with him, and it is estimated that his eyes and ears in Wuhan have already grasped this important information, and the situation is extremely favorable to us!

We must seize this rare opportunity, conform to the will of the people, and bring the Lianghu region back under the direct rule of the central authorities. Ladies and gentlemen, please speak freely and discuss the plan, Zu Yan, you speak first. ”

Chen Lifu stood up and sat down again at the signal of Chiang Kai-shek: "We are paying close attention to the development of the situation, and at noon tomorrow at the latest, the Changsha intelligence group will telegraph the specific situation to the Investigation Section of the Party Department, and if the Second Army is really surrounded or disarmed by the Gui faction, we will immediately launch a plan to denounce the arrogant actions and past evil deeds of the Gui faction with all our might, and let them become the target of the spurning of the whole army, the whole party, and the people of the whole country!" ”

"Excellent! What is Changqing's opinion? Chiang Kai-shek turned to his military advisor Yang Yongtai.

Yang Yongtai cupped his glasses and smiled unhurriedly: "Commander-in-chief, my subordinates think that it is not good for Wang Zhaoming and other people in the party to go it alone at this time, we should unite the majority and strike at a minority, so that we can take the absolute initiative morally." At present, Zhang Fakui and Huang Qixiang are both in Hong Kong, these two people are ambitious, and they are by no means willing to be mediocre, and they are very close to Wang Zhaoming, and if these two people are used well, Li Renchao's Guangdong army will be unstable, if possible, Li Renchao will be transferred to Nanjing, in the name of holding a meeting or in the name of dealing with the emergency of the Gui family, as long as Li Renchao leaves Guangdong and goes to Nanjing, the Gui family will be equivalent to breaking one of its wings, and it will be much easier to solve. ”

"Good! Changqing Gao Jian! What a clever plan...... Chiang Kai-shek burst out laughing.
