When Huang Yuanyong first saw Qiao Yu, he was entrusted with a heavy responsibility, and he was naturally very excited, and his special experience also made Huang Yuanyong different from the hot-blooded young people of this era, which is also where Qiao Yu valued him, at least this one would not be fooled by Sun Dacang, and with him in charge, most of the young people in the southwest would not be pulled over by Sun Wen, and they must not make the mistakes of the Qing Dynasty.

"Since Dashuai values it, I will now draft a press and publication regulation to regulate the cultural market!"

"Well, it has to be fast, and it has to be quality!"

"Don't worry, I will do my best!"

Huang Yuanyong hurriedly said goodbye and went to prepare, Qiao Yu looked at Zhang Lan, Huang Xing and others again.

"Ladies and gentlemen, in addition to dealing with rogue literati like Lang Zhongshu today, I have to reflect on myself, how many students are now being used by these people with ulterior motives, if they are not changed, these young people will be ruined, I think it is necessary to set up a propaganda department, we are not trying to cover up the problem, to fool the people of the world, but also to avoid other forces turning around to fool the people, this is the duty of the political axe, it is necessary to let everyone know the objective facts!"

Zhang Lan nodded again and again: "Dashuai is right, China is now in a special historical period of drastic changes, and it is necessary to give correct ideological guidance, and a country with confused ideas will not have any combat effectiveness!" ”

Originally, Zhang Lan and the others were all old-style scholars, if this was not the case, they would definitely not want to let the political axe interfere in the affairs of the academic world, after all, maintaining the reading power of the academic world is also an important concept for them, but the cruel reality has educated them, what so-called academic reading power, freedom of speech are nonsense, they must be guided and managed, even if Qiao Yu does not use it, he will be used by others, and he is even more ill-intentioned.

"Marshal, students, young people are the future of the country, Liang Qichao said that the country is strong when the youth is strong, and the wisdom of the youth is actually very reasonable, if these young people who are not deeply involved in the world are pulled over by foreign forces, China will really face the difficulty of destroying the country and exterminating the species, and we people should really wipe our eyes bright!" Zhang Taiyan was also extremely emotional.

"Brother Keqiang, I don't know if you are interested in serving as the Minister of Culture and Propaganda to check the propaganda in the southwest?"

"Thank you Qiao Shuai for your kindness, but I really don't hide it, my health is getting worse and worse, I often cough up blood, I'm afraid my life will not be long, and I don't have the energy anymore, I can see that the southwest is so prosperous under Qiao Shuai's governance, and there is hope for China's future, and I am willing to die!"

Huang Xing's health is indeed very bad, Qiao Yu also knows that he will not live long, originally Qiao Yu was also ready to use his fame to fight against Sun Wen, just imagine that the most important friends in the past have parted ways with Sun Wen, and even directly confronted, how huge the impact on the Kuomintang should be, but since Huang Xing is not in good health, he has to give up.

"Brother Keqiang, the development of medicine in Sichuan in recent years has not been slow, both traditional Chinese and Western medicine are emphasized, and there are many good doctors, you might as well recuperate in Sichuan, there are still too many things waiting for you!"

Huang Xing nodded in agreement, the matter is almost dealt with, Lang Zhongshu's matter will continue to be investigated, Qiao Yu must figure out how many people he has bought and how many chess pieces he has planted in the southwest, in the past, he thought that it would be enough to severely crack down on Yu Ben's intelligence system, but now it seems that it is far from enough.

Qiao Yu's explanation in Sichuan University still has a great impact, the faction that originally supported the war was overjoyed, and the opponents also died down, Duan Qirui, who was anxious, suddenly felt a lot better, without those annoying literati shouting in his ears all day long, and his work efficiency was much faster, but Duan Qirui also felt heavy pressure, Qiao Yu had already said that he would take back the tariff power, but Duan Qirui was really not sure that he would get it back from the powers, and he could get some money, and it would be good to be able to solve one or two of the Shandong issue, But now that Qiao Yu has given him such a big problem, how can he not give Duan Qirui a headache.

Duan Qirui of Yanjing had a headache, and so did Cai Yi in Kunming, Qiao Yu forced him to agree to the southwest joint development plan a while ago, Cai Yi finally delayed it, but before he arrived in Kunming, Qiao Yu's telegram was sent, asking the Yunnan army to prepare to accept the reading, and at the same time form a volunteer army to enter Europe to fight!

If the previous economic cooperation was still a little considered, this time it is directly aimed at Cai Yi's military power, which is even more naked, and does not hide it at all, Cai Yi's current situation is unprecedented embarrassment.

"Teacher, give me an idea, how to deal with Qiao Yu?"

Liang Qichao also had a headache, Qiao Yu is different from other Turkish warlords in this era, he understands foreign situations better than those so-called scholars, and he also knows how to use new political means to fight, and the most important thing is that there is a huge Sichuan power group standing behind him, whether it is fighting wits or fighting power, it is not Qiao Yu's opponent, it is really difficult for him to give Cai Yi an idea.

"Songpo, in fact, it still depends on how you want to be, if you are willing to condescend to others, then you might as well obey Qiao Yu's arrangement, such as Zhang Bailin and others, if you still have great ambitions in your heart, and you are not willing to give Sichuan away, you might as well fight it, it's a big deal!"

Cai Ye is naturally reluctant to give in, but the problem is that the Sichuan system is too large now, and the strength of the Sichuan system is not only in the military, but in the terrifying economic strength, countless heavy artillery, all kinds of cutting-edge weapons, and the air force in the sky, it is really dangerous for the Yunnan army to collide with such a strong opponent.

"Songpo, do you think the Dian army has the strength to fight?"

Cai Yi stared at the map of Yunnan in front of him and thought carefully for a long time, "Teacher, although the Sichuan army is strong, it relies too much on the advantages of weapons, the terrain of Yunnan is rugged, and the Sichuan army will have to bear huge logistical pressure if it wants to enter Yunnan, but the Yunnan army has a very light burden and can fight flexibly, as long as it can resist the first wave of attack of the Sichuan army, I am sure to fight peace!" ”

Liang Qichao showed a hint of joy on his face, Cai Ye is not a big talker, since he said so, that is, he has enough certainty, as long as he can fight peace, he will be able to keep the power of Yunnan.

"Songpo, since you are sure, I think you might as well fight it, and then I will help you contact Lu Rongting and Duan Qirui, Feng Guozhang and others in Liangguang, I believe they are not stupid, as long as Qiao Yu completely solves the internal problems in the southwest, then the next step must be external expansion, just take advantage of this time to contain Qiao Yu!"

Cai Yi nodded, it can only be like this for now, but he is not hopeful for the solidarity of other forces, after all, the Protectorate War has just passed, and no one wants to offend the Sichuan system such as Zhongtian, now it depends on his ability.

Cai Yi immediately ordered the Yunnan army to strengthen mountain training, and at the same time suspend the use of all the weapons originally aided by the Sichuan system, or replace them with weapons left over from the original Manchu Qing Dynasty.

However, although Cai Yi thought well, the fact is not the case, since the new equipment of the Sichuan army, many officers of the Yunnan army have secretly sold all the old-fashioned weapons to the local leaders, the original Tusi everyone, now want to change back how difficult it is, and many soldiers have been used to the sophisticated weapons of the Sichuan army, and then use those old-fashioned rifles, how can you stand it alone.

When the Yunnan army was preparing for war, Qiao Yu directly issued an order to the Yunnan Provincial Assembly, asking them to vote on the cooperation plan as soon as possible, and at the same time pass the bill on the reduction of the Yunnan army as soon as possible.

Now Yunnan Province is lively, the contradictions between the patrol envoy and Cai Dudu are open, the first thing to move is the wall-riding faction, and it's time to bet on the treasure, whether to support Cai Dudu, or support Qiao Junzuo, this is the most test of political wisdom, the Sichuan system is a strong dragon, Cai Yi is the head snake, this is really a problem.

Originally, Cai Yi wanted to delay it, but Qiao Yu crossed him and directly informed the parliament in Yunnan, obviously impatient, Yunnan must show an attitude, in other words, it is time for a showdown.

On this day, Cai Ye was dressed in military uniform, armed with knives and guns, accompanied by countless guard attachés, and came to the Yunnan Provincial Assembly.

"Ladies and gentlemen, Qiao Yu sent a telegram from the southwest tour, asking everyone to vote on the cooperation plan and disarmament matters as soon as possible, here I will first express a position, this matter must be cautious, Yunnan and Sichuan have clashed several times in a row, it is difficult to ensure that Sichuan does not hold grudges, if once this plan is accepted, Yunnan's wealth will definitely fall into the hands of Sichuan, I am afraid that it will be unfavorable to Yunnan's tens of millions of fathers and elders, everyone must act cautiously!"

After Cai Ye finished speaking, all the parliamentarians in the audience knew that Cai Ye was ready to compete with Qiao Yu, and he didn't want to give up the power in his hand, and the parliamentarians who were inclined to Cai Ye nodded in agreement, and it was true that the fate of Yunnan could not be handed over to the Sichuan people.

"The fate of Yunnan can only be controlled by tens of millions of Yunnan people, resolutely support Cai Dudu's decision, and must not let the ill-intentioned Sichuan enter Yunnan, we must fight to the death!"

The shouts from the audience were endless, obviously supporting Cai Yi, which made him very satisfied, but at this time there was also a discordant voice.

"Fart, it's all fart!" A tall middle-aged man stood up suddenly, pointed at the people present with his hand, and said in a loud voice: "It's all a bunch of bastards, Yunnan is a province in China, our fate and the fate of the country are linked, when can we solve it on our own, you are playing with reading power, you are looking for death!" The crowd was stunned, not knowing what to say.

I saw that this person turned to Cai Ye again, and asked sharply: "Cai Dudu, you have been in charge of Yunnan twice, has the well-being of the people increased a little?" Now that all industries in Yunnan are withering, only opium is selling well, ask yourself if you are worthy of the people, how dare you drag the Yunnan fathers and elders into the war again, you say that Sichuan is plotting for Yunnan's wealth, then let me ask you, what else can Yunnan plot to the point of being so poor? ”
