"With so much money, the Americans won't watch us take it, right?"

Lao Jiang had long known that it was difficult for him to refuse Qin Wei's suggestion, because although Qin Wei's suggestion sometimes seemed dangerous, most of the time it could bring huge benefits, and these benefits were not much different from what Qin Wei described, so he developed this kid's excellent reputation. And this time, since Qin Wei dared to boast that he could get 180 tons of gold from Southeast Asian countries, he would be able to account for at least 50 tons. Fifty tons of gold, how much does it cost? He already had considerable confidence in Qin Wei, but he still couldn't help but feel worried in his heart.

"Aren't they helpless? Besides, let's take the money and take the money, is it difficult to tell them? Qin Wei scoffed at Lao Jiang's question. How many people in China who have led troops to rob money have not done this kind of thing? Do you still need to ask him?

"Since Southeast Asia can get so much gold, then Britain and the United States are facing great pressure, why not just take it yourself?" Yu Jishi couldn't see Qin Wei's arrogance, and asked. But as soon as he finished speaking, he knew that he was wrong...... Because even Lao Jiang glared at him dissatisfied.

"There are a lot of problems, but one thing is ...... Britain and the United States want long-term interests, and they are too familiar with Southeast Asian countries to start. Qin Wei shook his head, but he didn't laugh at Yu Jishi. In fact, he also wanted to know if Britain and the United States, especially Britain, would be so "polite" if they learned that they would soon lose control of Southeast Asia and eventually lose these colonies after this world war. Perhaps, these guys will really take away everything that can be taken from the whole of Southeast Asia, as Yu Jishi said. may even go to the point of turning this place upside down and spilling blood.

"The Americans haven't moved much so far. I said that I would counterattack Japan, but now I won't speak...... I don't know what they want to do. He Yingqin suddenly sighed again. The reaction from the Yankees was very bad. Although according to Qin Wei. As well as the plans of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and those senior aides of Lao Chiang, the "cooperation" with the Americans not only has prospects, but also has money, but before the Americans relented and agreed, he always felt a little weak.

"Westerners are practical. What's more, the Americans are not having a good time now, and it is difficult for even a ship to sail to the Pacific Ocean. Chen Cheng, like He Yingqin, is a little lacking in confidence in the United States, the world's largest industrial country: "Do you want us to fight another battle and let them see our strength?" ”

"Fighting?" Qin Wei narrowed his eyes, "Now from south to north." The few have just experienced a big war. In another battle, not to mention the consumption of arms, which troops can we use? ”

"The weapons received from the Soviets are marching to Shanxi under the protection of Fu Zuoyi's department. I always feel that the Japanese will not watch idly, and instead of guarding against thieves, it is better to take the initiative to attack......" Chen Cheng took a deep breath. "Regain Shanxi!"

"Recovering Shanxi?" Qin Wei and the others were stunned. They really didn't expect Chen Cheng to come up with such a plan.

"The Japanese army in North China was led by Tada Jun to fight with the National Army, and then fought with the Eighth Route Army in the 'Battle of the Hundred Regiments'. The soldiers are tired. Morale is low, that's one thing. …… Second, Yoshio Shinozuka, who had been guarding Shanxi, was transferred to serve as the commander of the North China Front, and the newly appointed Japanese commander was not necessarily familiar with the situation in Shanxi. Chen Cheng said eloquently, "Third, although the armored corps has not yet begun to be formed. The combat effectiveness has not yet been achieved, but the soldiers started from Kulen and drove these tanks and armored vehicles all the way to Inner Mongolia, and they must have mastered certain skills. In cooperation with the Land Forces and the Air Force. Dealing with the Japanese in the field should not be a big problem. Fourth, Hu Shoushan is the elite of the national army, and after the defeat some time ago, there is a mourning trend in the whole army, and the military heart is available. It is also supported by a large number of heavy weapons, and its combat capability will certainly be greatly enhanced; Fifth, once Shanxi is recovered, almost all the troops of our army stationed in Shaanxi, Linfen, and Zhongtiao Mountain can be liberated, relying on Taihang Mountain, and flattening Tianjin Hebei! At the same time, the Communist Party's base areas in Shanxi were greatly restricted, and even directly banned ......"

"What do you think?"

Chen Cheng is Lao Jiang's confidant, and these words naturally went directly to Lao Jiang's heart, especially the statement about the Communist Party's anti-Japanese base area, which is extremely in line with Lao Jiang's wishes. Look at those base areas of the Communist Party, what are the Jin-Cha-Ji, Jin-Hebei-Lu-Henan...... These are the main base areas of the Communist Party, and none of these base areas can run to Shanxi. If Shanxi can be recovered, it will be tantamount to breaking a hand of the Communist Party.

"It mainly depends on Hu Shoushan." He Yingqin didn't have a stubble. If this battle really starts, Hu Zongnan will definitely be the main force. And Hu Zongnan has already lost once before, and this time he must win, otherwise it will not look good in front of Lao Jiang. But what if you win? Chen Cheng is the initiator and designer of the entire campaign, and no matter how great Hu Zongnan's credit is, he must give Chen Cheng a large piece of peace. Not only that, if Hu Zongnan wins, the 34th Group Army under his command will inevitably swallow Shanxi...... That's not a good place to go. First of all, we have to face Yan Laoxi! As a veteran of the Kuomintang and one of the powerful figures, although Yan Xishan's strength is not as good as before, he is not easy to deal with; There was also the Communists, and the retaliation of the Japanese army...... And to get rid of these, the most important thing is the armored corps! The 34th Group Army, which swallowed Shanxi, may be difficult to get involved in the armored corps again. Of course, these are all troubles after the victory, but if Hu Zongnan does not fight this battle, then the trouble will be even greater.

"They're all capable people." Qin Wei didn't think as deeply as He Yingqin, but he could also see that Chen Cheng was calculating Hu Zongnan. He didn't have much to say about this, so he could only shake his head secretly.

*******************************************************

"We should suggest to the central government that the tension of the moment should not be too eager to win over those who are already sympathetic and close to us, so that they will face a more difficult choice. This is especially true for someone like Qin Wei who has a huge amount of energy. This should be a long-term task. And I think that it is actually more beneficial for us for someone like Qin Wei to stay in the national government. ”

The meeting of Kannon-an was also completed. In fact, the issues discussed in this meeting are not only such as winning over Qin Wei, but also many affairs of the Southern Bureau itself. However, Zhou Enlai was obviously most concerned about the attitude of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China towards Qin Wei...... People at their level know what Qin Wei's attitude is towards his party. Optimistic and would rather take a big risk to give them great help. However, that person was not close to them, and even a little distant, and was very reluctant to contact them...... At this time, you must not be in a hurry, because the more you are eager to pull people into your camp, the more it will hurt the relationship between the two parties.

"Actually, the Central Committee also means this, and I personally think that the entry point for the Southern Bureau to arrange a 'chance meeting' between Comrade Zheng Zhenhua and Qin Wei is very good." Wang Ruofei followed Zhou Enlai and paced slowly, "According to the central government's research on this person, this is a relatively nostalgic person. It's a pity that I didn't expect that the plan was actually destroyed by the Chongqing Police Department......"

"Accidents are always going to happen." Zhou Enlai sighed, "Qin Wei's status in the National Government is special, and Lao Jiang's gang looks down on him very strictly...... Sending Comrade Zheng Zhenhua forward was originally with the idea of giving it a try. If successful, be prepared for long-term incubation; If it doesn't work, with the brand of 'Qin Wei's old subordinates' to protect him, it is estimated that no one on the Nationalist Government will dare to do anything to him, and his life safety can be guaranteed. ”

"But I didn't expect Qin Wei to send people to Yunnan by himself, I don't know what he means by this? Is it a rejection? Wang Ruofei asked.

"Not necessarily." Zhou Enlai shook his head, "Qin Wei's vision and mind are different from ordinary people. Just like the 'military welfare fund' he set up before, ostensibly to earn benefits for those soldiers who take money to invest, but in fact, who would have thought that he was ambushing the Chinese army into the Indochina Peninsula? At that time, he was thinking about swallowing Indochina. ”

"That's true." Wang Ruofei looked admiring, "Many of our comrades were indeed surprised when they heard that the Kuomintang army had taken North Vietnam. But at that time, we still couldn't believe that Chiang Kai-shek had the courage to do this, and only thought that he wanted to protect his international lines of communication. But they then extended their hands to the whole of French Indochina...... I heard that even the British are now being wary of it? ”

"What's more, I heard that the British almost closed the Yunnan-Burma Highway, but as a result, Lu Han, chairman of Yunnan Province, transferred a division of the Yunnan army to the Yunnan-Burma border according to Qin Wei's instructions, and the British never mentioned it again." Zhou Enlai smiled, and there was still a little bit of exhalation and raising his eyebrows in his words.

"In these years, after all, it's still a big fist that has the final say." Wang Ruofei sighed, "If the British weren't trapped in the European battlefield and couldn't get out, how could Burma be stopped by Lao Jiang?" According to our own words, time is also, life is also! ”

"It will be the courage of a soldier, but in my opinion, this plan is the courage of a general! Qin Wei was bold and reckless, but with his help and assistance, Lao Jiang's strength was getting stronger and stronger. Otherwise, even if he knew that the British were helpless against him, he would certainly not dare to put his hand into Burma, not even French Indochina. Zhou Enlai said in a deep voice, "Now, he has obtained the mechanized equipment of the Soviets, and I don't know what Lu Dao will do." ”

"This can be assured," Wang Ruofei suddenly laughed, "The central government sent me over this time, one of the tasks is to reassure everyone: Lao Jiang thought that it would be great to get the mechanized equipment of the Soviets, but he didn't know that this was actually a big pit!" The more he invests, the greater the loss will only be. (To be continued......)
