Chapter 597 Talent is rare
The night rain outside the building is drizzling, the building is full of wine, and the atmosphere is relaxed. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Ishikawa is obviously a good drinker, and has a certain understanding of Chinese wine culture and tea ceremony, half a bottle of Jinxian mellow wine in the stomach, Ishikawa gradually let go, although the polite and extremely blunt surface etiquette on weekdays is still there, but the tone is unconsciously much more relaxed.
At Ishikawa's request, An Yi gave a brief account of the general course of the war in the southwest, deleted all the details of the "Southwest Plan" and the specific combat methods, and only gave a general introduction in chronological order.
Ishikawa was deeply grateful, and said with great emotion that he never imagined that one day he would be able to sit with the famous general An Yi and discuss the war that had just ended so openly.
Perhaps it was a reward, or perhaps it was to deepen An Yi's understanding of himself and change his attitude towards himself, Ishikawa took the initiative and naturally turned the topic to the situation in today's China, starting from the northeast, and continuing to talk about the power vacuum in the northwest and southwest and the dilemma beyond the reach of the Nanjing government, talking about the potential chaotic factors and geographical limitations of the three southwestern provinces, and even mentioning the Tibetan rebellion that the British were supporting, and finally turning his attention to Liangguang, where the situation has taken a sharp turn recently:
“…… An Jun and General Chen Jitang quietly withdrew from Wuzhou, an important town in Guangxi, and established contact with Mr. Wang Jingwei, another government leader in semi-exile, so that the troubled General Li Zongren calmly took over Wuzhou without firing a single shot, and it is likely that because of this major change, the financial problems of General Li Zongren's army were greatly improved.
According to the analysis of the information obtained so far, it seems that there are signs of reuniting between the two countries, and the person behind the matchmaking is likely to be Mr. Wang Jingwei, one of the senior party leaders. Since Mr. Hu Hanmin was imprisoned by Mr. Chiang Chung-cheng because of the dispute over the law, Gu Yingfen and other Kuomintang veterans have left the Nanjing government and gathered in Guangzhou to try to set up a new government.
It is speculated from this that Liangguang is likely to become the next hot spot for the outbreak of war in China, and at that time, I am afraid that An Jun will come out of the mountain again, haha! ”
Li Jun has never heard such an open analysis of the situation, nor has he ever had the opportunity to come into contact with so much comprehensive knowledge in addition to his own major, he only feels that Instructor Ishikawa is so knowledgeable and far-reaching, Instructor An Yi is so calm and unhurried, and he has a bamboo in his chest, and the doors of knowledge that need to be opened in Li Jun's mind seem to be silently opened in the casual conversation between An Yi and Ishikawa, a pair of small bright eyes with single eyelids, shining, flashing with a hungry and thirsty light for knowledge.
An Yi gave Ishikawa a glass, gave him a spring roll with chopsticks, and shook his head slightly to Ishikawa, who thanked him again and again: "Ishikawa-kun's intelligence sources are quite rich, the analysis is objective, the vision is unique, and it is quite exciting, if I didn't know that Ishikawa-kun has only been in China for more than two years, I really think that Ishikawa-kun has been living in China for ten years." ”
Ishikawa smiled humbly: "An Jun has passed the award, I joined the army in Manchuria at the age of seventeen, retired and was admitted to the Army University at the age of twenty-two, and the two years of graduation and service were in North Korea, that is, the Dandong region connecting Manchuria, so I learned Chinese and had a certain understanding of China, otherwise, I would not have been sent here as an instructor."
The ancient Chinese culture is vast and profound, and the more you understand it, the more you feel that its subtlety is incomparably profound and far-reaching, and if a Japanese person wants to truly understand Chinese culture, I am afraid that it will be difficult to achieve something with all his life's efforts! ”
"I deeply admire Ishikawa-kun's perseverance and perseverance!"
An Yi was worried in his heart, and speculated that Ishikawa would not have a second unit in addition to the Kwantung Army, but An Yi did not delve into it, the Japanese have not stopped preparing for full-scale aggression against China for a day since the beginning of the First Sino-Japanese War, and Ishikawa is just one of the thousands of Japanese with ill intentions. Even if you have great ambitions, you can only work hard to prepare early, where is the power to return to heaven!
Ishikawa saw the loneliness and coldness in An Yi's eyes, thinking that An Yi had mistakenly guessed his true identity, thought about picking up the wine bottle in front of Li Jun, respectfully poured wine for An Yi, put down the wine bottle and said sincerely:
"An Jun, I am fortunate to have worked with An Jun for many days, and I can have a long talk with An Jun today, which really touches Ishikawa! I would like to take this opportunity to be open and honest with An Jun, and talk about Ishikawa's true situation and identity with the personal dignity of an emperor, the reason why Ishikawa retired before he was promoted at the age of twenty-two was completely due to his dissatisfaction with the army's support in Manchuria, and he returned to Japan to ponder for half a year and made a hard choice before deciding to apply for the Army University, because in addition to joining the army, Ishikawa didn't know what he could do.
Because I have good grades and have some understanding of China, I was ordered to leave the Korean service place and come to Nanjing after the signing of the friendly exchange agreement between the empire and the Nanjing government, but I have never accepted any special mission, and no intelligence agency of the imperial army has had contact with me, and the reason why I have some understanding of the situation in China is entirely due to the fact that I went to the Imperial Japanese Consulate in Nanjing once a week to report on my work, and I also benefited from talking with many colleagues in the military academy. Ishikawa has never attempted or acted to spy on the military and political secrets of the squadron, but has only made some private analysis and summary based on existing intelligence sources.
Here, Ishikawa can also tell An Jun an internal report that he had just seen at the military attache of the embassy to show his gratitude: The day before yesterday, General Yan Xishan, who was living in Dalian, transferred a huge sum of 2 million to Hong Kong, and then from Hong Kong to Guangzhou, and An Jun should be able to speculate who the beneficiary was, and I believe that An Jun can also see the mood of General Yan Xishan in Shimono, as well as the upcoming changes in Liangguang. ”
An Yi greeted Ishikawa slightly: "Thank you, Ishikawa-kun!" It's a pity that such important information no longer means anything to An, who is now just a military academy instructor like you. Please, An toasts Ishikawa-kun with a cup and expresses a little gratitude! ”
"Please!"
Ishikawa drank it all, nodded slightly to Li Jun, who was pouring wine diligently, turned to An Yi, and showed a frank smile: "Does An Jun know that General Li Zongren has purchased a batch of weapons manufacturing equipment and steel through the French in Annam, and built an arsenal in Longzhou, a border city in southwest Guangxi?"
As far as Ishikawa knows, General Shi Zhen, the commander of the 43rd Army of Qianxi Province, who is like a brother to An Jun, has carried out an economic blockade of Guangxi for a year, and the main source of wealth of the Gui army has been cut off. ”
An Yi was slightly surprised, sat up straight, and saluted Ishikawa respectfully: "Please also ask Ishikawa-kun to teach!" ”
Ishikawa hurriedly and politely replied: "An Jun doesn't need to be polite, An Jun is the only person that Ishikawa admires in the squadron, no matter how An Jun treats Ishikawa, Ishikawa will respect the general as always, cherish the feeling of familiarity at first sight in his heart, and communicate with each other from the heart."
An Jun, General Li Zongren received a large amount of aid from General Li Jishen, who lived in seclusion in Hong Kong, and a month and a half ago, he received 1.8 million yuan of secret funding from General Chen Jitang, and at that time, the newspapers of the central government in Nanjing were still reporting the news of the fierce fighting between the two armies of Guangdong and Guangxi, which was moving! Anjun, do you know how Ishikawa felt when he got this news? ”
"Please!" An Yi politely stretched out his hand.
Ishikawa remembered the Three Kingdoms period in Chinese history, and only felt that the situation in China over the past few years had been more chaotic than the Three Kingdoms period thousands of years ago! Perhaps it is precisely because of this that there is the inheritance and development of the broad and profound Chinese art of war, and there are so many practical summaries and theoretical enrichments, among which the true meaning is inexhaustible! ”
Ishikawa let out a long sigh and took a drink from his glass, and after putting down the glass, he looked up at the sky and sighed.
An Yi was very sad in his heart, he did not hide his sadness, poured a glass of wine for Ishikawa, touched him lightly and drank it all, put down the cup and picked up a broad bean and chewed it slowly, without feeling the taste at all.
"An Jun, if the Nanjing government crusades against Liangguang, Ishikawa thinks that only a general can be competent for the important task of leading the army to fight, not to mention the excellent combat effectiveness of An Jun's old army and the advanced training results of mountain warfare, only to say that the command talent and the ability to govern the army, non-An Jun is not enough to be competent! Replaced by the command of other generals, I am afraid that in the two battlefields with long mountains and complex regions, I am afraid that it will be another protracted war of attrition. ”
Ishikawa's eyes were red, his straight nose was reddish, his thin lips were slightly open, and a relaxed smile hung on the corners of his mouth, obviously alcohol had allowed him to let go of all his worries and sharpen his mind.
An Yi knew that Ishikawa wanted to let him say the strategic vision of the two Guangzhous, so he thought about it for a while, smiled slightly, and asked calmly: "Ishikawa-kun, if you are asked to command the Liangguang crusade war, how will Ishikawa-kun deal with it?" ”
Ishikawa was stunned for a moment, then stroked his palms and laughed, laughed for a long time before saying that An Yi was cunning, put away his smile and replied solemnly: "Ishikawa had an idea but it was very immature, and he did not conduct special research on it. Of course, in land warfare, we can divide our troops into multiple routes, cut off and divide them, and divide the entire large battlefield into a number of small battlefields to deal with them by virtue of our superiority in strength. ”
An Yi laughed when he heard it, Ishikawa also laughed happily and loudly, the two of them raised their glasses and drank together after laughing, An Yi put down the cup, and without waiting for Ishikawa to ask, he took the initiative to say his combat ideas:
"If you change An to command this big war, the use of the navy is a must, although China's navy is so weak, it is better than nothing. Using the navy to transport troops and gather in the Chaoshan area of eastern Guangdong can somewhat contain the Guangdong army and make it dare not act rashly. The focus will be on Guangxi, first send four divisions out of Yunnan to take Baise, take the old road when General Long Yun conquered Guangxi, but after taking Baise and Tiandong, the army is no longer east and south, directly take Longzhou and Pingxiang Town Nanguan, immediately build a blocking line, block all the retreats of the Gui army, and at the same time send six divisions out of Hunan and Guizhou, the troops are divided into two roads, attack Guilin and Qingyuan (Yizhou), and finally join Liuzhou, no matter which way to make progress, only 50,000 troops of the Gui army can only retreat to the Guidong line, so that The war was almost over. ”
Ishikawa pondered for a long time, suddenly stood up, stroked his palms and sighed excitedly, and then bowed deeply and said goodbye: "Wen Jun's words are better than ten years of reading!" Thank you for An Jun's teaching, and Ishikawa will remember it today! Thank you Anjun! The night is deep Ishikawa is overwhelmed with alcohol, and if you don't leave, you will lose your temper, please An Jun Haihan! ”
An Yi sent Ishikawa out of the door, said goodbye politely, returned to the wine table and sat down, silently poured himself a drink, drank two glasses and looked up at Li Jun who was thinking deeply:
"Li Jun, how are you feeling now?"
"I ...... I was so scared, thinking of the ambitions of the Japanese army mentioned by the instructor, I felt sad in my heart, why is the General Headquarters and the central government still so weak? The Japanese are everywhere, even our military academy, but we are not prepared at all, what if there is a fight? ”
Li Jun looked at An Yi excitedly.
An Yi nodded: "It's good to have a sense of crisis, I'm afraid that you will be numb." As for why the military academy still allows the existence of Japanese instructors, it is not something that can be clearly explained in one or two sentences, just like Ishikawa and I drank and sparred, and it is not a sentence or two that can explain the reason. Li Jun, you are very promising, study hard, I have high expectations for you! ”
"Yes! Instructor, Li Jun also went back, starting tomorrow, Li Jun will come to ask for advice as long as he has time. Li Jun stood up.
An Yi motioned for him to sit down: "Come with me for a drink, next time you come, I'll ask Xiao Jiu to give you a key, I'll say hello to the Education Department and the captain of your artillery team, and ask them to allow you to have more free time after studying and training." If I'm not at home, you can come in and study, and you can also eat with a few guards left behind, the school food is too poor, you study day and night, nutrition has to keep up, and the two guard brothers who stayed behind are good brothers who have followed me for many years, they are from the Taoist sect, not only have good knowledge, but also have a body of martial arts, if you are willing, you can worship them as a teacher to learn some martial arts, maybe you can use it in the future. ”
"I ...... Student ......"
Li Jun was so excited that he didn't know how to speak.
An Yi shook his head: "Don't be so polite, if you want, call me Brother Sheng, you are also alone, when you have time, I will take you to Lao Nanchang, there is a senior who may have a little relationship with you." ”
Li Jun excitedly grabbed the wine bottle and poured wine for An Yi, poured a glass himself, respectfully held it with both hands, shouted in a low voice, and then drank it all.
An Yi smiled dumbly, pointed at Li Jun and said, "Look, it's improved, isn't it?" There are one or two in this big cup, and you don't cough anymore, haha! ”
Li Jun grinned, sat down quickly, and asked in a low voice while pouring wine for An Yi: "Big brother, if you are really asked to lead your troops to attack Liangguang, will you fight according to the method you just told Instructor Ishikawa......
An Yi smiled but did not speak, and Li Jun nodded thoughtfully.
