"I can't guarantee that, but we all know it's not impossible." Qin Wei knew that Kong Xiangxi actually wanted to take Qinghai, and everyone here also wanted to clean up Ma Jiajun. The key question is whether the effort is proportional to the gain. And he can be sure that as long as the pay and the gain can be equal, Chiang Kai-shek will do it, and it doesn't matter if he pays a little more. Lao Chiang really wanted to collect all the power of China in his own hands.

"If you are careful and put in a little more effort, there are indeed some possibilities." Chen Guofu looked at Qin Wei, "But the most important point among them is the Air Force. If our paratroopers cannot take Xining and Ma Bufang in the raid, the people in Sichuan, Gansu, and Ningxia will definitely not obey the orders of the central government. But if the paratroopers succeeded, we were at least halfway there. With these people on the side, the probability of success should be 80%. ”

"It's 10% higher than I predicted." Qin Wei smiled, "This is already a very favorable situation in military operations. ”

"Before the operation, I can first send someone to Qinghai Labor Army in the name of the central government, and I will say that I am grateful to Ma Bufang for sending two cavalry divisions to help the central government in the war of resistance...... When the time comes, you can prepare a banquet in Xining. Ma Bufang should arrive. In that case, the paratroopers would be able to move on the same day. Chiang Kai-shek was silent for a while, and then suddenly said.

"That's a good idea." Chen Lifu clapped his hands, "And I think that Ma Bufang can be commended not only alone, but also Ma Buqing and the main officers of Ma Jiajun." In this way, the paratroopers can get rid of one pot, and Ma Jiajun will be even more scattered at that time. ”

"Can you buy some people first? Responsible for reining Ma Jiajun after the operation? Kong Xiangxi asked again, "After all, if the main leaders of the Ma Jiajun are arrested, once this army is in chaos." Wouldn't it be more troublesome? What we want is a complete Qinghai, not a Qinghai where bandits run wild. ”

"Ma Jiajun has always appointed officers in the way that father dies and son succeeds, brother ends brother, and the soldiers are all Muslims, once someone is taken under him, it won't be long before he will definitely be another Ma Bufang." Song Ziwen said.

"Makes sense." Qin Wei nodded, "This is the most terrifying thing about Ma Jiajun. That is, it is cohesive, and it is difficult for outsiders to interfere. ”

"Then what does Chief Qin mean?" Chen Guofu asked.

"By my point, this force cannot continue to exist. For such an army, which is entirely under the command of clan and religion, is a source of great danger and turmoil. The Northwest is again the stronghold of Islam, once they find an opportunity. Maybe it could wreak havoc on the entire Northwest. After all, we are now in the war of resistance, and the vast majority of our troops are confronting the Japanese army...... Therefore, even if the Ma Jiajun is dispersed, it is difficult to guarantee that it will not be re-absorbed by some people, and a new general force will be formed in the northwest. Qin Wei sighed.

"The 'Northwest Gunma' is not just the 'Green Horse'. If we still use Ma Hongkui this time. He is the one most likely to replace Ma Bufang, of course. and Ma Hongbin. There is also this possibility. Kong Xiangxi said.

"Then send the Ma family army to the battlefield." Chiang Kai-shek tapped lightly on the table, "Let them consume each other with the Japanese army." ”

"Who's going to command this force?" Song Ziwen asked rhetorically: "The Ma family army is all Muslims, from low to high, and almost all the officers are surnamed Ma!" Even if they are forced to go to the battlefield, who can command them? ”

"I know a lot!" A flash of inspiration flashed in Qin Wei's mind, "What do you think of Ma Jiyuan?" ”

"Who is Ma Jiyuan?" Song Ziwen tilted his head and looked left and right. Asked.

"Ma Bufang's son." Chiang Kai-shek said on the side: "I have seen that child, and it is not bad. At a young age, he became a major general and brigade commander, and his academic performance at Lu University is said to be good. ”

"Let's take Ma Bufang, and let Ma Bufang's son lead the Ma family's army?" Song Ziwen was surprised. "Aren't you afraid of his rebellion?"

"How?" Qin Wei said with a smile: "It is difficult for such an army as the Ma Jiajun to accommodate any army in the world. Because they were actually religious forces, this kind of force had largely disappeared after the Middle Ages. Moreover, although they are not good at military discipline and are on a par with the Japanese in many cases, they must be more uncomfortable in the face of the Japanese than staying in the national army...... Moreover, under the leadership of Ma Jiyuan, Ma Jiajun can at least form a whole and hand it over to the Japanese, can the Japanese still let them get away with it like this? That's a whole army of cavalry! ”

According to this statement, Ma Jiajun cannot be sent to the south, and even North China cannot be easily sent over. They are too capable of evil. Chen Guofu said in a deep voice.

"Mongolia!" Qin Wei had a sinister smile on his face: "When necessary, you can also insert your hands and feet into the outer Mongolia!" ”

“…… Good idea. Kong Xiangxi glanced at Qin Wei several times in a daze, and finally couldn't help but extend his thumb. The Ma family army is a cavalry, and it can only play the greatest role when it is placed on the plain. But Ma Jiajun is a cavalry of three divisions, and if you add the two temporary cavalry divisions that Ma Bufang and Ma Buqing organized and sent Qinghai to participate in the Anti-Japanese War, it is a full strength of five divisions. Tens of thousands of cavalry, the destructive power can be imagined. And there is also a lot of pressure on logistical supplies. If you put it in North China, no matter where you are, I am afraid that you will not be able to support it. But Mongolia is different, it is originally a place for grazing. Ma Jiajun can not only get a certain amount of supplies there, but also give Fu Zuoyi and others a powerful boost. In addition, if Ma Jiajun extends his power into Outer Mongolia, it means that the Nationalist Government has also extended its hand...... This will be very helpful to the general position of the national government. And the Ma army will still be strongly restricted in Mongolia, because it is the territory of the lamas, what can you and a group of Muslims do there?

"What will the central government do if it causes a religious dispute?" Chen Lifu hesitated. Although Mongolia was able to maximize the strength of the Ma Jiajun while strongly restricting the development of the Ma Jiajun, it was difficult not to attack the Mongols who believed in lamas because the Ma Jiajun had always been rampant and domineering in Qinghai. The Mongols could endure the oppression of the Central Army, the Jin Sui Army, and the Japanese Army, but they certainly could not endure the oppression of another army that practiced other religions.

"The more chaotic, the better." Qin Wei just sneered, "The more chaotic Mongolia is, the more opportunities the central government will have to make a move." It is better to spread this chaos to Outer Mongolia...... The Soviets had already left, and that Choibalsan was struggling to hold on under the pressure of the Japanese army, just in time to let Ma Jiajun sprinkle a handful of salt on his wounds. ”

"How long will the Soviets and the Japanese fight last?" Chiang Kai-shek suddenly asked Qin Wei again.

"As long as we want them to keep fighting, they have to keep fighting. Unless...... Stalin was willing to suffer this big loss. Qin Wei said.

"Then do you think Stalin will admit it?" Chiang Kai-shek asked again.

"It's hard. But...... It's not impossible. Qin Wei's answer was very unconfident. Because he knows very well that Stalin seems to be crazy, and he would rather die than suffer, but when it is really necessary, this guy will not blink an eye, let alone cut two pieces of meat and cut off two thighs. Just looking at the fact that he would rather let Timoshenko fight desperately in the Far East than send reinforcements over in order to prevent Germany. Seishiro Sakagaki has already beaten Ulan-Ude, and the strikers of the army have already drunk Lake Mabaikal. And the Japanese Air Force, which had the upper hand, even bombed Irkutsk, where Timoshenko was located, from time to time...... This means that almost a third of the territory covered by the Trans-Siberian Railway has fallen into Japanese hands. But Stalin hadn't sent reinforcements yet. Qin Wei speculated that Stalin sensed that there was no hope of counterattacking in a short time, and might have even sent someone to negotiate with the Japanese.

"There has been no recent major war between the Soviet Union and Japan in the Far East." With intelligence, he secretly pointed out that the armies of the Soviet Union and Japan were fighting, and the plan to reduce the strength of the two countries has always been Qin Wei, He Yingqin, and Bai Zhengxi are responsible. Other than that, it was only Chiang Kai-shek who knew. But there is nothing big secret about the Nationalist Government. After such a long time, some people at the top of the national government have actually heard some rumors to some extent. Therefore, Kong Xiangxi and others were not surprised by the dialogue between Qin Wei and Chiang Kai-shek. Song Ziwen has always been very concerned about international facts, and when he heard Chiang Kai-shek and Qin Wei talk about the war between Japan and the Soviet Union, he immediately interjected: "The Soviets have been defeated one after another, but there is no sign of increasing their troops, and the Japanese are also vigorously proclaiming that these territories originally belonged to 'Manchukuo', and they also dragged out the words that Lenin promised to return all the occupied Chinese territories." Therefore, it is speculated that the Soviet Union may give up this part of the territory. ”

"If that's the case, Seishiro Sakagaki will definitely divide his troops to plunder Outer Mongolia at that time." Kong Xiangxi also said in a deep voice.

"In that case, Ma Jiajun should be sent there even more." Qin Weidao.

"Having said that, who can guarantee that Ma Jiajun will really not make trouble after arriving in Mongolia? What if they did defect to the Japanese? Chen Lifu was still a little hesitant and worried.

"Then let the Communist Party deal with them. The 'Western Expeditionary Army' they engaged in at the beginning was completely annihilated by the Ma family's army, and they had a great grudge against the Ma family, so they were not afraid that they would not do it. Chiang Kai-shek snorted coldly, "What's more, aren't Zhu De and Mao Zedong very powerful?" They also talk outside all day long about the Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningbo border area where we oppress them...... Then I will not oppress them. Give them a bigger territory. That's all right, right? ”

"In this case, wouldn't the Communist Party and the Soviet Union become more closely connected?" Chen Guofu said.

"It's so close. The closer they were to the Soviets, the easier we were to talk. And it would be better to go to war with the Japanese with the USSR...... That's what works best for us. Kong Xiangxi said with a smile.

"Borrow the hands of the Japanese to eliminate the main force of the Communist Party, Dean Kong, you have this idea, right?" Qin Wei asked with a wry smile.

"Since the Soviet Union distributed two divisions of weapons to the Communists, and since we have fought the Japanese in the south...... The Communist Party took advantage of the opportunity to develop rapidly. This is very bad for the party-state. Chiang Kai-shek sighed: "It's time to find an opportunity to spend their strength."
