Chapter 253: Go to Chongqing again
Li Tie's letter touched Wang Yaqiao's heart. After years of running around and working hard, he sacrificed his life to save China, but what did he get in the end?
Except for the scars all over his body and the fewer and fewer old brothers who share life and death with him, and China has not changed anything because of him.
So Li Tie's letter completely moved him, Li Tie has money, his own people, and now he has Hainan Island, a place outside the national government, give him three or two years to be afraid that he will not be able to develop?
Just like my brother-in-law said, there will be a war between China and Japan in the future, and I think about how many years Premier Sun worked tirelessly back then, and he did not change the situation of the separation of the Chinese and the first valve.
Relying only on his current self, he has no enthusiasm, and he can only empty China's own national strength if he blindly coaxes hundreds or thousands of old brothers in China, so it is really better to listen to his brother-in-law's words and develop in a muffled voice on Hainan Island for a few years.
Wang Yaqiao, who finally figured out this section, couldn't help but be happy for Li Tie's vision, and also happy that his own old brother who was like a & no & wrong & novel {} finally had a place to stay, and he felt for the first time that he was not lonely on the road of resisting Japan and saving the country.
At that time, Li Tie at the wharf was also happy in his heart, and finally deceived Wang Yaqiao away, according to the original development trajectory, in a few months, his brother's subordinates would be arrested by the Shanghai police because of their carelessness in Shanghai.
And because of this, he stabbed Jiang in Lushan and Song in Shanghai North Station, and in fact, Commander Jiang ordered a reward of one million yuan for Wang Yaqiao's head. It is ten times the amount of the prize received by the leader of the red bandits, which shows how much Commander Jiang fears and hates Wang Yaqiao.
And the two fought for several years in the days that followed, and finally ended with Dai Li's successful assassination of Wang Yaqiao, ending Wang Yaqiao's admirable and lamentable.
Now that he has become Wang Yaqiao's brother-in-law, he knows Wang Yaqiao's final process and results, so Li Tie finally decided to save his eldest brother.
Taking advantage of the fact that the assassination of Shirakawa Yoshinori has just ended, there is chaos at home and abroad, and his base on Hainan Island really lacks a decent leader.
And in the future, Hainan Island also needs a leader who can be shown in front of people. This person must not only have courage and knowledge, but also have a certain reputation in the Republic of China, otherwise many people will fight the idea of Hainan Island.
And looking at today's Republic of China, is there a more suitable candidate than Wang Yaqiao, who is patriotic and can be civil and martial, and is his only relative, his own brother-in-law?
Li Tie once again secretly rejoiced that he had changed the course of history.
Time flew by, and another month passed. Since the signing of the Sino-Japanese Songhu Armistice Agreement, Wang Yaqiao was successfully deceived by Li Tie to go to Hainan Island, and Li Tie's life was on the right track again. He began his life as his big boss again.
However, because the Anti-Japanese War in Shanghai has just ended, the reconstruction work in Shanghai is also very busy, Li Tie not only checks the performance of his own companies on time every month, but also helps prepare for a lot of construction work in Shanghai, so Li Tie is really busy.
So much so that in June, Commander Chiang once again called on the Nationalist Government to start the work of suppressing bandits, and Li Tie did not think about it when the whole party established the national policy of first securing the outside world.
When Li Tie remembered this national policy, the Nationalist Government had once again intensified its efforts to blockade the Soviet area, and this time even the convoy of the Huaxing Company could not enter and leave the surrounding areas of the Soviet area at will.
Therefore, the living standards of the military and civilians in the Soviet area have become even more difficult, especially because of the long-term shortage of salt and food, the people in the Soviet area are miserable, and as a result, all kinds of diseases have not been effectively treated.
The current Soviet area is not only short of salt and grain, but also in urgent need of all kinds of medicines, and who else in China can get enough medicines except Li Tie.
So just when Li Tie was still busy building Shanghai and preparing to expand his business empire again, an uninvited guest came to the headquarters of Huaxing Company again.
As soon as this person came in, he took out the jade pendant that Li Tie gave to Li Kenong, hoping that Li Tie could send a batch of medicines to the people in the Soviet area.
At that time, Li Kenong and his family had already thought of various ways to purchase medicines from the Kuomintang region, but the bulk of medicines could not be transported to the Soviet area at all, and neither the waterway or the dry road to the Soviet area could be passed.
There is only one reason, because the communist army took the opportunity to expand its territory in the Shanghai War of Resistance, which not only offended Lao Chiang, but also offended many national soldiers who sympathized with the communist army in the past.
Therefore, when the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression ended, and after the vigorous propaganda of Commander Chiang's official media, many national soldiers in the past did not do their best to blockade the Soviet area, but now it is different, and there is no love to talk about.
Not a single contraband was allowed to flow into the Soviet areas, and the number of soldiers and civilians dying every day due to lack of medicine and salt in the Soviet areas skyrocketed, which had a serious impact on the rule of the Communist army over the Soviet areas.
As a last resort, Zhou Weiren had no choice but to find Li Kenong again, originally the high-level of the Communist Army wanted to take advantage of the favor of stopping the attack a while ago to ask Li Tie for some medicine and salt.
However, Zhou Weiren and Li Kenong resolutely disagreed, saying that their communist army could not carry people with kindness, not to mention that the cessation of the attack on the Nationalist government army was also for the anti-Japanese needs of China as a whole.
In the end, Li Kenong reported to Zhou Weiren that the longevity lock that Li Tie had given him could ask Li Tie three times unconditionally.
This time it can be used once, so this person is sent here. Li Tie took the longevity lock and drew a mark on the back of the lock, indicating that it had been used once.
After this longevity lock was marked with three traces, it would be ineffective, Li Tie did this because he was not necessarily in Shanghai every time, so he had to leave a mark, and go back and explain to the thousand-tailed scorpion so that she could also know this longevity lock.
Then Li Tie asked the visitor to go to the guest room to rest, and gave him a letter within three days.
Sending away the people sent by Li Kenong, Li Tie also has a headache, the current situation of the Kuomintang and the Communist Party is very tense, if it is like before, using the fleet of Huaxing Company to deliver goods, this time it will definitely not be successful. And it will be hated by Commander Chiang, which is really not cost-effective.
But without Huaxing's convoy, other people did not have the ability to deliver the goods to the Soviet area, and when Li Tie was worried, he suddenly received a letter from Liu Xiang in Sichuan.
Chongqing University has been completed for a few years, Li Tie has not come to Chongqing to visit him, now it is the third anniversary of the completion of Chongqing Huaxing Industrial City, and it is also the day of the completion of Chongqing Huaxing Pharmaceutical Factory, it is better to invite Li Tie to Chongqing, or to share brotherhood with Liu Xiang.
Seeing Liu Xiang's telegram, Li Tie took it to heart. He immediately called Liu Xiang back and said that he was about to fly to Chongqing in the near future, and at the same time he arranged for someone to call Li Kenong's representative.
Let him tell Li Kenong to prepare the warehouse, prepare another battalion of troops, when and where to receive the goods, and then he will naturally inform him that the medicine and salt will be sent to the Soviet area in a week at the earliest, or half a month at the slow.
When the visitor asked in a tone of disbelief, how did Li Tie send these items over? Li Tie shoved the longevity lock into his hand and told him, where did all this nonsense come from? He, Li Tie, said that if it can be delivered, it can be delivered.
The people who came were also frightened by Li Tie's courage, and even more frightened by Li Tie's reputation, yes, he is the richest man in the world, no matter what method he uses, anyway, his task is completed, just go back and report.
After three days like this, Li Tie arranged everything in Shanghai, said goodbye to the thousand-tailed scorpion, and took Wang Qi and others to take the special plane of Huaxing Airlines again and flew directly to Chongqing.
Chongqing is nearly 2,000 kilometers away from Shanghai, and even if Li Tie took his Huaxing special plane, it took more than five hours to reach Chongqing.
As soon as he stepped off the plane, Li Tie was once again warmly welcomed by Liu Xiang, because the establishment of Huaxing Industrial City has driven many related industries near Chongqing, making Chongqing's tax revenue several times higher than before.
And Liu Xiang has gained a lot of benefits because of his close relationship with Li Tie, whether it is cheap arms or various strategic materials, Liu Xiang has received Li Tie's strong support, so in just a few years, Liu Xiang has become the strongest warlord in Sichuan, in addition to his own uncle Liu Wenhui has the strength to compete with himself, there is no other warlord in Sichuan who dares not to listen to Liu Xiang's orders.
And this time, Liu Xiang's main purpose in inviting Li Tie to Chongqing was to borrow money, guns, and planes.
When Li Tie heard Liu Xiang open his mouth like a lion in Liu Xiang's mansion in Chongqing, he didn't know what to say about him.
Liu Xiang saw that Li Tie didn't seem to be enthusiastic, and immediately expressed his worries: "In recent months, his clan uncle Liu Wenhui has been very quiet, according to his eyeliner, Liu Wenhui has the intention of competing with him for the king of Sichuan.
And now there is not much difference in the strength of the two sides, and the strength of the small warlords that everyone can contact is about the same, and there are only so many people in the whole of Sichuan.
With the same number of troops, all we can fight now is nothing more than equipment, and in recent years, thanks to the help of Brother Li, the equipment in our army has always been the best among the Sichuan warlords.
But I don't want to start the war lightly, my uncle is a man with great ambition and talent, and he doesn't pay attention to the people's livelihood, under my leadership, I can still ensure that he doesn't do anything too out of line, but if Sichuan is in power by him, I'm afraid it won't take long for the people to be miserable, and the people will not be able to make a living.
And I'm different, I'm not at the forefront of the country for people's livelihood and education, but if you can cite a person who is more suitable than me Liu Xiang to be the king of Sichuan, I will abdicate and make way for Xian.
But is there one? No. So no matter what, you have to support my brother to win this battle, I don't have money anyway, I have people and land, you can say what you want. ”
Li Tie let Liu Xiang deliberately act like a scoundrel and defeated him, but he also knew that what Liu Xiang said was the truth:
"I guessed that it would be a good thing for you to take the initiative to invite me to Chongqing, brother. Do you really think I have a crush on you in this poor place in Sichuan? I was afraid that there would be a war with Japan in the future, and the coastal areas would not be able to hold on, so I left you with a back hand in advance.
Let me make it clear, I don't want a penny from you this time, let alone your people and your land, but if China goes to war with Japan in the future, you can't be a bear, and then you have to be the first to lead troops to rush forward. Li Tie deliberately teased Liu Xiang.
"Look at what you said, you see my brother and I as a bear baby, don't say that I will lead my troops to rush forward in the future war with the Japanese, even if Commander Jiang allows me to go out of Sichuan, I dare to go to the northeast with a big sword and spear now.
We don't have anything else in Sichuan, but there are many people with eggs. "Liu Xiang is not bragging, the original history of the Zhongchuan army with the worst equipment, sent more than 3 million strong soldiers.
In the eight-year War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression in China, a total of only 14 million soldiers were produced, and Sichuan accounted for more than one-fifth of the soldiers mobilized in the whole country as a province, which shows that the blood of the Sichuan people is really the first in the country.
Therefore, Li Tie absolutely believes in Liu Xiang's guarantee, and he has more reason to help Liu Xiang unify Sichuan as soon as possible. Li Tie calculated for a moment and said preciously:
"That's it, brother, I'll send you ten of the latest American bombers, and ten more fighters, and I'll be the pilot. I'm paid for my salary. I'll send you another hundred mountain guns, and I'll be the artillery instructor, and I'll help you train a few battalions of artillery.
In addition, I know that you have a lot of people now, and I will support you with 20,000 rifles, 500 machine guns, and all kinds of ammunition to cover you, but if you can't do it, I will send you another 500 boxes of grenades, all of which are the latest products in the United States, so that you can always defeat your uncle, right? ”
Hearing Li Tie's generosity, Liu Xiang excitedly patted his thigh a few times, and shouted happily: "Hello brother." It's not in vain that I've been helping you watch your little daughter-in-law every day for several years. Don't say anything, dry this glass of wine, brother, I didn't misunderstand you. ”
Li Tie watched Liu Xiang slap his thigh fiercely, as if the meat was not his, and Li Tie felt pain when he saw the ruthlessness.
However, when he heard Liu Xiang say that he would look after his daughter-in-law for him, he was still a little confused, but after a little thought, he knew that Liu Xiang was referring to Xu Meiqi, and it seemed that Liu Xiang didn't know that he and Xu Meiqi were actually in a pure relationship between men and women. Li Tie didn't explain, and toasted to Liu Xiang again and again.
But where is Li Tie's alcohol consumption Liu Xiang's opponent, a few glasses of spirits in the stomach, Li Tie is a little high, fortunately, Li Tie's consciousness is still quite sober, only listen to Li Tie's inarticulate words repeatedly tell Liu Xiang:
"Brother, I have only one purpose for helping you, so that you can quickly defeat your uncle with an absolute advantage and unify Sichuan as soon as possible, I told you before, don't kill more people, they are all descendants of Yan and Huang, you have to leave some male roots for Sichuan.
When a full-scale war with Japan starts in a few years, I can count on you to make a big effort. Li Tie drank a little too much, and unconsciously told some secrets, Liu Xiang listened: "Brother, when will we fight a full-scale war with the Japanese, are we going to war with the Japanese?" Liu Xiang is also strange that this Brother Li has always been able to pinch and calculate, can he see through something that can't be done.
It's a pity that at this time, Li Tie had already found that he had revealed his mouth, and resolutely stopped drinking, and wanted to return to Huaxing Company to live, and resolutely did not live in Liu Xiang's mansion, Liu Xiang had no choice but to arrange guards to escort Li Tie all the way to live in the mansion he arranged.
Seeing Li Tie leave the Liu Mansion, Liu Xiang couldn't help but praise: "This little brother is really a dragon and phoenix among people, and Xu Meiqi and the two of them are also a natural pair."
However, Li Tie's big house seems to be the deputy leader of the Axe Gang, the thousand-tailed scorpion, I heard that the woman is a decisive master, and it is estimated that she is also a vinegar jar, otherwise he would not be able to force Brother Li to throw Xu Meiqi, a big beauty, to Chongqing for a few years and ignore it. Alas, I hope that Brother Li Tie's backyard will not catch fire. ”
