Chapter Twenty-Nine: Adjusting the Tiger

The moment Chiang Kai-shek ordered the seizure of Sichuan equipment, it was a sign that the war had begun.

Liu Yuan personally led two armies, a total of six divisions and 60,000 people, using Panzhihua as a springboard, suddenly attacked Yunnan, and caught Long Yun by surprise.

At this stage, Long Yun has not completely unified Yunnan, and his control over Yunnan is still very weak.

Long Yun looked at the tens of thousands of troops under the city, his forehead was sweaty, he didn't know how he offended Liu Yuan, the hero, so that Liu Yuan personally led troops to attack him, and in just five days, he arrived at the city of Kunming.

And the Yunnan Army, under the hands of the Sichuan Army, is like a group of children who have never seen a war.

What is the coordination of infantry and artillery, what is the coordination of artillery, in just five days, Liu Yuan defeated twelve ancient cities in a row. However, Liu Yuan's army was very strict, and he did not destroy local production at all, and the trade was fair, which made the common people have a weak sense of resistance to them, which also caused Yunnan to lose a quarter of its land in an instant.

Under the city of Kunming, Li Erniu took the microphone and talked to Long Yun.

"Brothers in Sichuan, we in Yunnan have no grievances with you in the past, and we have no enmity in the near future, why did you suddenly attack us, we also belong to the National Revolutionary Army series, we are the 38th Army." Long Yun personally held the microphone, not because he didn't want to go, but because he lost Kunming, Yunnan was almost gone.

"I'm sorry, Chairman Long, Chairman Jiang doesn't mean what he said, and if we seize our equipment, we can only be angry with you." Li Erniu said with a big grin.

"I said Sichuan brothers, you can think about it, we in Yunnan are also very poor, there is no money for you at all, even if you rob it, you can't grab anything." Long Yun said anxiously.

"Rob, what do you want to rob, we are here to occupy Yunnan, and Yunnan will be under the jurisdiction of our Sichuan in the future, Chairman Yunlong, I advise you to open the city gate." Li Erniu said with a glaring bull's eye.

At this time, Long Yun had no choice but to order the city gate to be opened, and Liu Yuan also occupied Yunnan in six days.

At this time, in the Nanjing Command, Chiang Kai-shek's official residence, Chiang Kai-shek was scolding the street with an official document.

"Niang Xipi, what is Liu Yuan going to do, take the initiative to provoke a civil war?"

Chen Cheng was beside Chiang Kai-shek and shook his head, this Chairman Chiang is really a headache.

"Chairman, Liu Yuan's invasion of Yunnan is nothing more than to get back the hundreds of thousands of tons of equipment, can't we give them all and give them a part? At this time, it is really not possible to fight, and many soldiers are very tired. And if we go on an expedition, it will be very passive for the Central Army. ”

Chen Cheng was promoted quickly in the Chiang Kai-shek system, and now he is the deputy minister of the military department, and he is the number one person in the military system second to He Yingqin.

"No, Liu Yuan has no central government, you see that because of the equipment, he dared to openly invade Yunnan, if he was given the equipment, it would be to fuel his arrogance, he had the equipment, and if he developed, who would be able to subdue him at that time." Yang Yongtai insisted.

Chen Lifu frowned on the side, why is this Yang Yongtai like this? You must know that the Song family, the Chen family, and the Zhang family all pay attention to celebration, hoping that Jiang Gongzi can develop achievements, and when the time comes, they will also reap, if this fights, what will they gain.

"Senator Yang, since you don't want to give him the equipment, then you go and lead the troops to fight, if you have the confidence to defeat Liu Yuan on the expedition, you can go." Chen Lifu said.

"I am a literati, a matter of fighting generals, and now the Central Army is invincible and victorious, and a Sichuan is not a matter of being captured. I don't believe that with the strength of the whole country, I can't take Sichuan. Yang Yongtai said.

"But you have to know that the national policy we have formulated is to develop the southwest and prepare for the imminent Japanese invasion, and you are going to destroy the southwest." He Yingqin frowned and said, he didn't know that there was so much stubbornness from this Yang Yongtai.

"I know that it is very important to build the southwest of the road, but the southwest built by Liu Yuan is the southwest of Liu Yuan, not the southwest of our national government, and when the time comes, the gun in his hand can be given to us, or it can be given to the Red Party, who can subdue him at that time." Yang Yongtai frowned, these people have their own careful thoughts, what should the national government do.

Chiang Kai-shek is also an understanding person, he heard what Yang Yongtai meant, and immediately said, "Senator Yang said yes, since we have solved Bai Chongxi and Li Zongren, then we will eliminate the Sichuan warlords next, so how about He Yingqin personally lead the troops." ”

He Yingqin is a person-like person, shook his head and said, "I'm sorry, principal, I was born in Yunnan, if I lead the troops, I will probably do it with my brother back then, I can't bear it." ”

"Isn't it okay for the sake of state affairs?" Chiang Kai-shek did not force it, he knew that this time it was a big event, and if it was not done well, the central million-strong army would probably be lost in the southwest, so he did not force it.

"I don't think it's right to do something to the southwest at this time, the Red Party is still in our hinterland, they seriously threaten us, Dai Li once gave information, the Japanese will have a large-scale invasion of China in 100,000 years at most, we have a lot to do in the past 15 years, exterminate the Red Party, exterminate Yan Xishan, pacify the northwest, and the last are Liu Yuan and Zhang Zuolin." He Yingqin insisted.

"Okay, I don't embarrass you, what do you think of Gu Zhutong." Chiang Kai-shek looked at Gu Zhutong, at this time Gu Zhutong had no choice, he knew that Chiang Kai-shek was preparing to let him go.

"I can go, but I ask Xue Yue to be the commander-in-chief of the former enemy, and I don't want the troops led by the first phase of Huangpu." Gu Zhutong said.

"Good!" Chiang Kai-shek knew that many people in the first phase of Huangpu recognized Liu Yuan, and it was almost impossible for them to beat Liu Yuan, so he agreed to Gu Zhutong.

Gu Zhutong led an army of 500,000 to the southwest, and at the same time, a large number of troops began to pour into the southwest from Guangxi, Qinghai, and Hunan, and for a time Chongqing became the front line of the war.

Gu Zhutong walked for more than a month, and in the process, Liu Yuan occupied almost half of Yunnan, and Liu Yuan did not embarrass Long Yun let him continue to serve as the chairman of Yunnan, and brought a lot of funds, but Long Yun's soldiers were disarmed, and they had a new term, that is, the Yunnan Construction Corps.

On this day, Liu Yuan was chatting with Yunlong, and Long Yun kept complaining, "If you had told me earlier, you really came to build Yunnan, I would have let you come directly, why did you bother to use swords and soldiers to hurt so many hard-working people in Yunnan." ”

Liu Yuan was also helpless, and said, "This is also a helpless choice, if I don't move the sword soldiers, the central army will not move, and if the central army does not move, I won't be able to win this battle, so I have to make this decision, and Yunnan has not suffered much damage, and the combat effectiveness of your Yunnan soldiers is not ignorant of the way, and there is no difference between us and the soldiers of our Sichuan Construction Corps." ”

"I can't say anything about you, but there is one thing you have to get right, that is the **** problem, I am a minority myself, and I know the hearts of a few **, so you have to be careful."

"It's your business to appease the people, and I'm going to implement a new policy in Yunnan, you don't think it's okay." Liu Yuan asked.

"There's nothing wrong with that, after all, your approach isn't as strong as the Red Party, but it's developing business and benefiting us locals."

"This is natural."

"Report." The correspondent shouted outside.

"Come in." Long Yun wanted to avoid it, but was stopped by Liu Yuan.

"Commander-in-chief, the tiger is out of the mountain, and the 500,000 army has arrived in Hunan and Hubei."
