When the First Front Army came to Kunming, the Dian Army, which was supposed to be building a defensive position, put down half of the position it had built and ran away without a single one. When the army advanced to Kunming, a group of Dian troops who had been lined up were waiting for them at the gate of Kunming.

The front of each Yunnan military team was full of weapons and ammunition, and it seemed that they were not ready to resist, and it did not look like there was any conspiracy.

The fighters of the vanguard stopped advancing and immediately reported it. A few hundred meters away, and the Dian army looked at the small eyes.

Hu Zongnan, who received the notice from the vanguard troops, immediately rushed over and looked at the Dian army, which had already lined up in a square formation. Just when Hu Zongnan arrived, a senior general of the Yunnan system walked towards Hu Zongnan.

Hu Zongnan looked at the Yunnan generals who walked towards him with a puzzled expression, not knowing what kind of medicine was being sold in the other party's gourd.

"Hello, I am the Dian army guarding Longyun, and I surrender to you on behalf of the Dian army in Kunming." Long Yun took off his saber and handed it to Hu Zongnan, at this time he didn't care what rank the other party was, whether it was equal to himself, because he didn't care about these now, he was eager to know what happened to the overseer.

Hu Zongnan was confused, but still took his saber.

"Why are you so happy?"

"I'll find out later, I'll ask Chief Cai to go to the Overseer's Mansion." Long Yun said helplessly.

Hu Zongnan didn't say anything more, and directly called someone to inform Cai Ye of them, and began to accept the disarming of the Dian army.

It didn't take long for Cai Ye and Chen Fuqin to arrive, and after listening to Hu Zongnan's report, the two did not stop, and rushed directly to the Overseer's Mansion with a company of guards. As for the fear of some conspiracy or something, it is not valid at all, the soldiers are beginning to surrender, the weapons are confiscated, what else can there be. Even if there was a conspiracy, a company of guards was enough to protect them until the main forces arrived.

Along the way, Long Yun also introduced the beginning and end of the matter. Early in the morning, Tang Jiyao didn't know where to come back, and as soon as he came back, he called a meeting of all the generals, and there was only a short sentence at the meeting: "Surrender to the Gui army, you are responsible for the surrender of Long Yun, after Cai Yi arrived, ask him to come directly to my office to find me, and no one will bother me before that." After that, he didn't say anything more and walked out of the conference room.

At this time, the Overseer's Mansion had been taken over by Cai Ye's guards, standing at the door of the Overseer's office, looking at the closed door. Cai Ye walked over, pushed open the door, and walked in, Chen Fuqin and Long Yun also followed, and after seeing the situation inside, Chen Fuqin stopped the guards who wanted to come in, turned around and closed the door.

At this time, Tang Jiyao was sitting on the office chair, his head resting on the chair, there was a bloody streak at the corner of his mouth, and he was holding a small bottle in his hand.

Cai Ye couldn't believe everything in front of him, Tang Jiyao actually committed suicide, this is definitely the biggest joke of this century, with his understanding of Tang Jiyao, anyone can commit suicide, but Tang Jiyao is impossible. But the facts are in front of him, and he has to believe that he didn't expect that the farewell would become a farewell back then, and when they meet again, they will be separated forever.

Long Yun couldn't help but speak, and he didn't quite believe that the Overseer would kill himself.

Chen Fuqin didn't have much emotion, after all, he and Tang Jiyao were not familiar with each other. At this time, he saw that there was still a letter on the table, and went over to pick it up. The envelope reads: Brother Songpa opened it personally. After seeing these words, he directly handed the letter to Cai Yi.

After taking the letter, I saw the large letters on it and tore open the envelope:

Brother Songpa, I originally wanted to have another glass of wine with you to be relieved, but I have no shame to see Brother Songpa again, I am ashamed of the soldiers who died and lived for me. I wanted to fight you today, and see how powerful the co-ordinator of the year is today. I never forget the days when I was a pipe under you, and now that I think about it, I think that I was the real person at that time. There is no deceit, no ambition for power. (In the year of Xinhai (1911), Tang Jiyao served as the first battalion of the 74th standard of the 19th Town of the Army (that is, the position of today's battalion commander), and the commander of the Seventh Association was Cai Yi at that time)

Furthermore, I hope that the co-ordinator will treat our Yunnan soldiers well, and I also know a little bit about your policies, so I can do what I need to do.

After writing this letter, I feel much better. I'm going to see my former brothers soon, and I'm going to say sorry to them personally.

Tang Jiyao's masterpiece.

After reading the letter, Cai Ye had an indescribable feeling in his heart, looked at the old subordinate on the chair, although he knew that he would never hear it again, but he still said it: "Bei Geng (Tang Jiyao), you don't have to be like this, life is the most important thing, although I don't know what happened to you, but no matter what, there is no need to be so extreme." ”

Long Yun opened his mouth and said, "Chief Cai, what happened to us. How could an Overseer kill himself? ”

"You Overseers came back from outside this morning?" Cai Ye could only see from the letter that Tang Jiyao must have encountered something, but what was it, there was no half sentence written in the letter.

"Yes, but we don't know where the Overseers went, and he didn't take the guards out."

"Forget it, the deceased is gone, and he probably doesn't want us to know, so there's no need to investigate what happened."

"Ugh." Long Yun didn't say anything more.

"Collect the body first, inform his family, and then I will apply to the chief for a generous burial of him." Cai Ye said with some sadness.

Far away in Nanning, Chen Shao, who was having breakfast, looked at the telegram sent by Cai Yi. Tang Jiyao actually committed suicide, how could this be possible, if it weren't for the repeated affirmation of Cai Yi and Chen Fuqin in this telegram, he would have to believe it.

The end of a generation of heroes, Chen Shao doesn't have too many opinions on those people, and he is now one of them. In another hundred years, he will be a name in the history books, and like all of them, they are all warlords.

Chen Shao never admitted that he was a qualified leader, and at the beginning he relied on his enthusiasm to develop and struggle. As his stature slowly improved, he gradually matured. As he changed history, history changed him.

Chen Shao repeatedly refused to allow other warlords and celebrities to invite him to participate in the so-called Ming lord election, and what he needed was not the old China, but the new China that was bound to carry out reforms. Judging from the work style of many warlords in various localities, from the top to the grassroots level, the problems of dereliction of duty, conservatism, and lack of quality are becoming more and more serious. If it is taken back by force, Chen Shao will of course push it down and reform it drastically.

In fact, Chen Shao is not opposed to the residence of capable people, even if they are other warlord officials, as long as they have real ability and hard work, and have not committed bad deeds such as committing adultery and criminals, they can also take up posts at all levels of the new government through the unified and harsh administrative personnel assessment.

As for the land policy, since the two Guangxi provinces have implemented a brand-new land policy, land reform is inevitable in order to solve the problem of feeding the peasants in this era and to solve the most urgent problem of food and clothing for the common people at present......

And the choice of the president and the parliament is not something that Chen Shao can accept.

If in a few decades, let China enter the parliamentary system and carry out comprehensive democratic political reform, maybe he will try to do it, but now, if he wants China to do this, it is simply watching monkeys sing.

Since the Xinhai Revolution, the so-called parliamentary system has been carried out year after year, and all kinds of scandals during this period have simply been left behind for a hundred years. What coercion and bribery of voters, what thugs blocked the venue, while making people laugh and be generous, they can't help but reflect on whether China has the conditions to practice parliamentary democracy in this period?

Even if there were, Chen Shao would not waste his precious time on parliamentary democracy. In a special period, only the most special political system is suitable, and a comprehensive and efficient political system can promote a nation to become stronger and stronger like a snowball.

The Chinese nation wants to survive, and it must seize this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for re-emergence, and it must not be disturbed by any parliamentary national system. Chen Shao doesn't have so much energy to cheat and quarrel with bullshit politicians, what he needs to do is to concentrate the strength of the whole nation in the face of Japan's 918 incident and the next World War II.

It is also the autumn of 1923, although the industrial construction of the two Guangxi provinces has entered a period of full development, and many basic industries and infrastructure facilities have reached quite high achievements, but it is still far from enough, and China has been poor for too long.

Chen Shao will not play those political tricks that are deceitful and deceitful, but will continue to implement his personal will with actions to clear the way for the rejuvenation of the entire nation. Now he is also committed to cultivating his own team, relying on spies to supervise local officials, and if any malfeasance is discovered, they will be greeted with punishment and at worst jail time. Fortunately, the officials in various localities are now patriotic personnel and their own students, and no major dereliction of duty has been discovered for the time being, and minor phenomena can be corrected.

Thinking a little far, Chen Shao, who only reflected when he heard his daughter's cry, teased his daughter with a shy face: "Yun'er, talk to your mother first, and your father will come back in a while." ”

After Chen Shao finished speaking, he glanced at Xie Yuxin, who smiled, nodded, and motioned for him to go about his own business.

The telegram also asked what to do with the nearly 200,000 Dian troops? Chen Shao thought about it for a while, and instructed: The old way, if the soldiers who have performed well are selected to go home, they will pay the travel expenses uniformly, and all the remaining ones will be charged to the reserve corps and the armed police force, and we will not be afraid of too many numbers, and we will collect 500,000 yuan.

Now that the economy is developing rapidly, he is not afraid to raise so many people, and next, Chen Shao also plans to establish his own financial system, which has saved a lot of gold over the years, which is enough to build a national bank. The financial plan will be implemented after all the territories in the four provinces have been secured and stabilized. At present, the financial institutions of Liangguang and Guangzhou are under the control of Longteng Group, and the implementation will be much simpler at that time.
