Zhu Shaoliang's official reputation in Gansu is very poor, and his wife sells officials, that is, the number one cigarette dealer in Gansu; The few cadres used by Zhu Jieliang are all masters of accumulating money, but all of this wealth is collected for Zhu Shaoliang, and the officialdom in Gansu is full of smoke and miasma, and corruption is rampant. //、qВ5、CｏМ//

Lin Wei hesitated, but finally nodded, he knew some things about Zhu Shaoliang in Gansu, but he also knew that Chiang Kai-shek still trusted Zhu Shaoliang very much, but Zhu Shaoliang's biggest problem was that he failed to bring Gansu under the command of the central government.

"In addition, I estimate that there will be an accident in Xinjiang" Zhuang Jihua continued: "Although Soviet Russia withdrew from Xinjiang, their influence is still there, Sheng Shicai will not be willing to be captured, in addition, if the Soviet-German war changes in the direction favorable to the Soviet Union, Soviet Russia may return to Xinjiang again, so the primary goal of the northwest is not to counterattack the Japanese army but to eliminate the local forces in the northwest and return power to the central government." ”

There is a gap between this judgment and Chiang Kai-shek's understanding, Chiang Kai-shek believes that the biggest problem in the northwest is the Xinjiang issue and the CCP, Lin Wei asked in a deep voice: "Wen Cui, Xinjiang is vast, and the southern part of Hu Zong's army cannot be fully invested in Xinjiang, and part of Liu Wenhui's troops must remain in Tibet, and the number of troops will definitely be insufficient, how to solve this problem?" ”

"There is no way" Zhuang Jihua obviously thought about it: "A few days ago, we can only mobilize so many troops, and after recovering Xinjiang, I suggest that we build a few more airports in Dihua, which can take off and land large transport planes, and transfer the tank brigade that Hu Zongnan is training to Dihua. "Therefore, after recovering Xinjiang, the first thing is to reorganize the troops, and the Chengshan team is quickly mechanized, and there are some ← trucks in Gansu and Xinjiang, which have been turned into armored trucks."

Lin Yin is probably very interesting to serve as the eighth war zone, and he asked in detail about the situation in the northwest, but Zhuang Jihua did not really want to rectify the northwest when he went to the northwest, but to take a vacation to avoid trouble, and there was only so much to Yu in the northwest, and he couldn't answer some of Lin Wei's questions.

"Brother Weiwen, the key to controlling the northwest is to transfer the Erma forces, stabilize Shaanxi, control Xinjiang, and do all that can be done before the Japanese are driven away." Zhuang Jihua can only say this in the end.

The car stopped at the Huangshan Mansion, the two got out of the car, Lin Xi did not lead Zhuang Jihua to the living room, but took him to the back garden, Zhuang Jihua was a little surprised, but as soon as he entered the back garden, he understood.

"Daddy." Yaya and Momo threw themselves into his arms one after another, Song Meiling and Liu Yinshu sat side by side, heard the cries of Yaya and Momo, and looked back to see him and Lin Wei, both of them stood up almost at the same time.

"Wen Cui, look at you, it's been a few months since you went to the northwest, and all the things at home were left to Yin Shu, and your father did a very unqualified job." Song Meiling looked at the two children who were pestering Zhuang Jihua with pity, Yaya is now in elementary school, she is very tall, almost to Zhuang Jihua's waist, the little girl inherited her mother's beauty, she is a beauty embryo at a young age, and her big eyes are flashing at Zhuang Jihua.

In recent years, Zhuang Jihua and Liu Yinshu have returned to the previous situation, the husband and wife get together less and leave more, Zhuang Jihua lived in Guiyang for a long time even when he was the director of the southwest camp, Liu Yinshu stayed in Chongqing with his children, and did not stay in Chongqing for a few days after returning from Myanmar, first in Hunan and then in the northwest, and the husband and wife did not see each other for several months.

Liu Yinshu suppressed her mood and stood next to Song Meiling, both of them were wearing long-sleeved cheongsam, Song Meiling was like a blooming peony, graceful and luxurious, rich and dignified; Liu Yinshu is like a hollow valley orchid, clear and glamorous, gentle and lovely. "Madame" Zhuang Jihua rubbed his hands, didn't know what to say, and scolded Liu Yinshu with a somewhat uneasy expression: "Why did you bring the children too, isn't it too disturbing Madame." "What are these words" Without waiting for Liu Yinshu to speak, Song Meiling waved her hand magnificently: "I asked Ah Shu to bring the children, Yaya and Momo are very cute, I like it very much." ”

In the end, Song Meiling showed a trace of tenderness on her face, carrying Chiang Kai-shek for so many years of marriage, her biggest regret is that she has no children, Chiang Kai-shek's biological son actually has only one Chiang Ching-kuo, and the second son Jiang Weiguo is not his biological son, but the illegitimate son of Zai Jitao.

People who don't have children actually like children the most, and Song Meiling is the same, not only do she put this love on the children of her subordinates, but also set up many orphan schools across the country to help those children who lost their relatives in the war to go to school, all from the charity foundation she established. "Thank you, madam" Zhuang Jihua could only properly express his gratitude, he reached out to pick up Momo, but Song Meiling reached out to hold Yaya's hand, and Liu Yinshu hesitated and walked beside Zhuang Jihua.

Yaya was a little dissatisfied with Zhuang Jihua for picking up her younger brother and not pulling her, but the little girl quickly put this matter behind, let go of Song Meiling's hand, and ran around in the small garden. "Yaya is more naughty than a boy." Zhuang Jihua was a little surprised, Yaya was playing crazy in the garden, and this serious mansion was full of her laughter. "Children just want to be a little bit" Song Meiling was full of smiles, and looked at Yaya and Momo lovingly: "Naughty children are smart, and uneven children are not promising." "Oh" Zhuang Jihua rolled his eyes and said with a smile: "It seems that Mrs. was very naughty when she was a child" It must have given the old gentleman a headache." Liu Yinshu didn't expect Zhuang Jihua to say this, and looked at Song Meiling a little nervously, but she didn't expect Song Meiling to be stunned. Immediately laughed, laughing so much that Liu Yinshu pushed Zhuang Jihua: "What nonsense." ”

Song Meiling waved her hand: "It's nothing, it's nothing, Ah Shu, this is the difference between the Cultural Revolution and others, who dares to make such a joke about me." "What is so happy?" Chiang Kai-shek's voice came from behind, and the three of them quickly stood up, and Chiang Kai-shek was standing at the door, looking at them with interest. "Great Order" Song Meiling restrained her smile slightly, pulled out a chair, and smiled and told Jiang Jietian the topic just now.

Chiang Kai-shek couldn't help but be happy: "Cultural Revolution, children follow their fathers, I think you must have been very naughty when you were a child, Madame is not wrong." ”

Zhuang Jihua deliberately lowered his voice with a sad face and muttered: "If you want to talk about it, who is better than the principal here." ”

"Hehe" Song Meiling and Chiang Kai-shek laughed almost at the same time, Chiang Kai-shek stroked his bright head and sighed: "If you want to say that when I was a child, there were a few boys who were not naughty, I was very naughty when I was a child, and I was often scolded by my mother.

The atmosphere became heavier all of a sudden, and Zhuang Jihua also sighed slightly: "The principal is sacrificing small filial piety to achieve great filial piety, the country is in a lot of tribulations, the principal chooses to serve the country, and the old woman should be able to understand."

Chiang Kai-shek's maid was extremely filial, and every time he went home, he had to live in front of his mother's tomb for two days, which was considered to be guarding his mother's tomb, which even affected his employment. "Wen Cui, you have been running around for a few years, and it is rare to stay at home for a few days, today I have a beryllium banquet to comfort you." Song Meiling said with a smile: "I also comfort Lao Shu." ”

Liu Yinshu hurriedly stood up: "Madam, you are serious, and I don't understand the major military affairs" I understand the big truth, the country is in danger, and it is reasonable to obey the leadership of the chairman, actively resist Japan, and drive the Japanese out of China.

"Ah Shu said this well" Song Meiling said: "The most important thing at the moment is to drive the Japanese away, Wencao, Roosevelt plans to meet with Churchill to discuss the strategy against Japan, and even the global strategy, and may invite the chairman to participate, what do you think about this matter?" ”

This is a new situation, Zhuang Jihua has no memory of several world conferences in World War II, but there are traces of things.

After a moment of contemplation, he said: "If the president is to participate, it will definitely talk about the Japanese question, how to conduct the war against Japan, and the situation in the Far East after the war. ”

"There are three routes for the counteroffensive of time, the first is through the Pacific Ocean to Tokyo; the second is to fight back in Chinese mainland; the third is Soviet Russia, passing through Northeast Korea in China; For Southeast Asia, neither Roosevelt nor Churchill thought that a counterattack should be fought back from this direction. There is no doubt that the Pacific should be dominated by the U.S. military, and Roosevelt and Churchill would not have disputed this. Now the key is land. ”

"From Soviet Russia or from China, but what about that line?" Zhuang Jihua's thinking became clearer and clearer, and the speed of his speech became faster and faster: "It depends on the war, if Soviet Russia is the main force, once Stalin enters the Northeast, he will never withdraw easily, and we are likely to face betrayal at the Paris Peace Conference after the last war." ”

"To avoid this, we must show that we have the ability to defeat the Japanese army, so we must hold on to the northwest of Burma in Burma, speed up industrial construction, and get rid of dependence on American aid as soon as possible; Secondly, the counteroffensive should be carried out in the country, and the route of the counteroffensive I think should start from the five theaters, go westward, recover Xuzhou, and then not go south to recover Nanjing, leave the Beijing-Shanghai-Hangzhou Delta to the Japanese, and the main force will advance north, attack Hebei, seize Pingjin, and occupy Shanhaiguan. ”

If the president can attend this meeting, he must discuss the post-war issue with Roosevelt: "Taiwan and the Penghu Islands must be recovered, and there is also the Korean issue, if we can, we will strive to take the Ryukyu Islands into our pockets, and on the issue of Japanese garrisons, we must strive for garrisons, and on the issue of garrisons, if Soviet Russia can occupy Hokkaido, that would be the ideal."

When Zhuang Jihua was talking about his strategic concept, Chiang Kai-shek never interrupted him, he had been thinking silently, and the base camp had also put forward the idea of counteroffensive, which was studied by Chen Cheng, and Zhuang Jihua's proposal was completely different from his.

According to Chen Cheng's meaning, the counteroffensive was first aimed at Wuhan, concentrating the main forces of the Ninth Theater and the Fifth Theater, encircling and annihilating the Japanese 11th Army in the Wuhan area, recovering Wuhan, and then going straight down the river to recover the Beijing-Shanghai-Hangzhou area, eliminating the Japanese army south of the Yangtze River, and then following the route of the Second Northern Expedition, going north to regain the lost territory.

However, Chiang Kai-shek sensed from Zhuang Jihua's discourse that this line represented some kind of concern about his post-war domestic situation, and he was somewhat relieved. "Cultural Revolution, don't you recover Nanjing first? Why? Song Meiling was a little puzzled, and Liu Yinshu also asked: "Isn't the recovery of Nanjing more impactful?" ”

"This is mainly from an economic point of view, and the Beijing-Shanghai-Hangzhou region is our richest region" If this area is destroyed by war, it will be very difficult to recover and rebuild after the war, especially Shanghai, once it is destroyed by war, the country will have to bear a heavy economic burden." Zhuang Jihua explained. Chiang Kai-shek pondered and asked, "What if our counteroffensive fails to achieve its goal?" ”

Zhuang Jihua sank, he was about to answer the impossible, but suddenly understood what Chiang Kai-shek meant, he said solemnly: "If our counteroffensive fails, Master Luo will make a deal with Stalin in exchange for the interests of Northeast China and North Korea Stalin will transfer troops from Europe, of course, this is under the condition that the war against Germany has been won." Stalin knew very well that even if Soviet Russia did not make a contribution, as long as the American army won in the Pacific, Japan would surrender, and he would be able to recover the Far East smoothly, so Roosevelt had to come up with attractive bargaining chips, and some bargaining chips to avoid could only be Northeast China and Korea, and even Japan. ”

Liu Yinshu still didn't quite understand, but Soong Meiling and Chiang Kai-shek had already understood, and Chiang Kai-shek then asked: "If the Ryukyu Islands are returned to our country, our relations with Japan will be greatly affected after the war. ”

"We and Japan are bound to be competitors in the future, and, in the long run, once we become strong, the Ryukyus will be the gateway to blocking our navy's access to the Pacific." Zhuang Jihua said: "As for the reason, let those literati find it, history and culture, anything is good." ”

After hearing this, Chiang Kai-shek didn't say anything, Song Meiling saw that the time was almost up, so she proposed: "Daling, it's time to eat, let's eat first, and then talk, the children are hungry." ”

This meal is the most sumptuous and uncomfortable meal that Zhuang Jihua ate in the Huangshan Mansion, the two children, Yaya also eats in a regular manner, Momo is like at home, eating and playing, Chiang Kai-shek seems to be very happy, stopping from time to time to tease Momo, adding food to Yaya. Chiang Kai-shek is also a grandfather, Chiang Ching-kuo has several children, but before that, their family rarely came to the Huangshan Mansion, Song Meiling knew very well why this was.

But last year, Japanese planes bombed Xikou, Chiang Ching-kuo's biological mother Mao Fumei was blown up and killed, Chiang Ching-kuo went home to mourn, in front of his mother's grave - four big characters in the blood book "Wash blood with blood!" ”

After this incident, Jiang Jingguo also asked Jiang Fangfu to take the children to Huangshan, and the relationship between father and son became very close.

Momo waited for the rice to spill a table, Liu Yinshu hurriedly sorted it out for him, Zhuang Jihua was helpless, Momo was everyone's favorite at home, from Zhuang Lai Shun Zhuang Li's family, to the in-law Liu Lao Zhuang "Everyone loves him, he is purely the little emperor of the family, every time he eats, Zhuang Li takes the bowl and runs with him" Liu Yinshu just can't intervene if she wants to." The kid was by his grandparents. Zhuang Jihua also knew the situation at home, and he had no choice but to explain to Chiang Kai-shek.

Chiang Kai-shek didn't care, he simply put down his chopsticks and picked up Momo, but Momo was unwilling, struggling to get off the ground, waving his little hands in the air, and his mouth was still squeaking and complaining.

Chiang Kai-shek put him down helplessly, this one put down, Momo was like a wild horse off the reins, running around the house, Song Meiling looked at Liu Yinshu's appearance, and shook her head slightly: "Mother Wu, come and help." ”

Wu's mother is still very experienced, and soon let Momo sit down to eat quietly, Wu's mother muttered to Liu Yinshu while feeding, the three daughters of the Song family, only the eldest Song Ailing has children, and the second Qingling and the third Meiling have no children, which has also become a heart disease in Wu's mother's heart, and when she looks at Momo today, she can't help but nag.

Liu Yinshu didn't want to listen to it, but she had to listen to it, so uncomfortable, she was in a hurry, she took Momo outside the dining room, so that Song Meiling couldn't hear it.

There was no trick-or-treating, and the meal was eaten quickly. Zhuang Jihua asked Yaya to find her mother, and he went to the office with Chiang Kai-shek, Song Meiling did not follow this time, but went to Liu Yinshu with Yaya. "Cultural Revolution, you don't want to accept the task of the mechanized army" Chiang Kai-shek asked thoughtfully: "You don't want to do it deputy chief of staff, what do you want to do next?" ”

"I want to go back to the front line" Zhuang Jihua said directly: "It's not that I don't want to reorganize the mechanized army, but I don't want to take over in this situation." Headmaster, if Stilwell is allowed to do it this time, and next time, he will make even more excessive demands, what will you do then? ”

Chiang Kai-shek was silent, and Zhuang Jihua said resolutely: "So this time we must block him back, let him understand that he is not the emperor of China, he is only your chief of staff, and you are the commander-in-chief." There are some things he can meddle in, and some things he can't. "Jing Zhi is worried that it will affect the US aid supplies."

"There are some things that have to be trade-offs." Zhuang Jihua's tone was still very resolute: "Director Xu has already trained the Fifth Group Army and has experience in organizing and training mechanized troops, besides, the Americans don't know how to organize and train mechanized troops, and before the war, they also did not have mechanized troops, so we can't blindly follow this." ”

"The Military Commission has a plan to adjust the nationwide index system, and intends to set up the Jiangbei Command Department and the Jiangnan Command Department to unify the command of the troops north and south of the Yangtze River." Chiang Kai-shek pushed open the office door, and Zhuang Jihua followed him.

Zhuang Jihua quickly thought about Chiang Kai-shek's words, what does it mean to set up such two commands? There is no need for this at all, is it to let him be appointed as this command, no, according to Chiang Kai-shek's intentions, the Jiangbei Command is responsible for commanding the Eighth War Zone, the Second War Zone, the First War Zone, the Fifth War Zone, and the Sulu War Zone, the Jicha War Zone, Yan Xishan, Zhu Shaoliang, Wei Lihuang, and Li Zongren are all under his command, with his qualifications...-, can it be done?

No, no, from entering the door to sitting down, in just a few steps, Zhuang Jihua thought clearly, this position is not for him, so who is it for? It's either Yan Xishan or Li Zongren. Zhuang Jihua quickly made this judgment.
