Chapter 1172 This matter has to be known to the Japanese

Compared with Chairman Chiang's attitude of not being salty, indifferent, and uninterested in this military conference initiated by the Americans, Tang Qiuli was extremely enthusiastic.

On 10 September, a grand press conference was held at the Chuncheng Hotel on the shore of Kunming Lake, where Long Yun, chairman of the Yunnan Provincial Government, and Huang Zhixiang, the new chairman of the Guizhou Provincial Government, attracted the attention of reporters, of course, Tang Qiuli, the protagonist of today, and what attracted the curiosity of reporters was the two giants of the Guangxi Provincial Government, Li Zongren, chairman of the Guangxi Provincial Government, and Bai Chongxi, the military affairs supervisor of Guangxi Province, who were impressively accompanying Tang Qiuli.

People who know the inside story of the Guiyang Battle that ended not long ago couldn't help but whisper one after another, "The things in the world, I really can't guess it, more than ten days ago, the Gui Department raised tens of thousands of troops, approaching Nanning, and the war in Guangxi was about to break out. ”

Long Yun, as the chairman of Yunnan Province, is inevitable, the provincial chairman of the Yi nationality, at a critical time, stood on the right team, and Tang Qiuli's personal relationship is good, the new chairman of the Guizhou Provincial Government Huang Zhixiang is a member of Tang Qiuli's generals, since he came to cheer, but the two giants of the Gui family, Li Zongren and Bai Chongxi, appeared here, and the mystery of it cannot but make people have a lot of room for speculation.

This is the shrewdness of Li Zongren and Bai Chongxi, more than 100,000 central troops, outside the city of Guiyang, in less than a day, were beaten by Tang Qiuli's troops, the commander-in-chief Liao Huaizheng surrendered, 780,000 soldiers were escorted to Guangzhou, Xu Liejun and his more than 2,000 men were shot on the spot, this amazing news, Li Zongren and Bai Chongxi, frightened into a cold sweat.

Amitabha, the original choice, in the current view, how wise and correct is the decision to order the troops to return the same way, if Tang Qiuli dealt with the Central Army and Xu Liejun in the Gui Army, as concocted, I am afraid that the two of us have only one way to go in exile overseas, and Guangxi will never be able to gain a foothold.

Li Bai and the two were very happy, but also very grateful to Tang Qiuli for his mercy, now, on behalf of the Republic of China, he went to Manila to meet with his allies, before leaving, held a press conference in Kunming, this is an excellent opportunity to repair the relationship between the two sides, go to the scene, one is to show goodwill, the other is to take the opportunity to show the position of the Gui family, but also to apologize in disguise for the stupid move of his army to Nanning.

Li Zongren and Bai Chongxi, who are veterans who have worked hard for decades in the decades of fighting with Chairman Jiang and the old Gui family, are very shrewd, and they are not inferior to anyone in their grasp of the current situation and opportunities.

But at this moment, the two of them must be together to show their sincerity, and besides, isn't Tang Qiu still the vice chairman of the National People's Political Affairs and Military Commission? Theoretically speaking, Li Bai and the others are his subordinates, and the boss is about to go abroad, and as a subordinate, it is natural for him to come to see him off, and others will not make irresponsible remarks.

Sure enough, Li Bai and the two came together, Tang Qiuli gave a very high-standard reception, and at the Kunhu Hotel on the shore of Kunming Lake, facing the vast blue waves, a banquet was held to entertain the two giants of the Guizhou family, Long Yun, chairman of the Yunnan Provincial Government, and Huang Zhixiang, the new chairman of the Guizhou Provincial Government.

This made Li Zongren and Bai Chongxi's uneasy hearts completely fall back into their stomachs, and also avoided embarrassing scenes, Li Zongren had to explain a few words, Tang Qiuli interrupted with a smile, "Chairman Li, Bai Supervisor, the two of you came from afar, today only talk about Fengyue, regardless of state affairs, in the future, the war in Myanmar will still rely on the strong support of the two, the war is in Myanmar, and the logistics are in the country!" ”

At the end of the banquet, Tang Qiuli seemed to say unintentionally: "With the development of the war, the center of gravity of the battlefield will gradually move south, and the demarcated domestic rear base of the Burma battlefield will complete his historical mission.

Tang Qiuli's words released an obvious signal, as the war gradually goes to the South Pacific region, the center of gravity of the independent division will also be tilted overseas, Yunnan and Guangxi, he is not ready to operate, this is a great good thing, just with this independent division during the operation of the three provinces of Yunnan, Guizhou and Guizhou, a large amount of money invested here, the current three southwestern provinces, industry and commerce are not what they used to be.

For example, what Tang Qiuli took over was a thin horse, fed with fine grass, this thin horse was already fat and strong, the dragon was fierce and fierce, these three people were like seeing a large piece of fat flowing oil, this beauty in their hearts, dealing with Vice Chairman Tang, is to rest assured, not to suffer, how to be like Jiang who is sitting in Chongqing, just thinking about eradicating dissidents and cutting meat from others.

Therefore, the dinner on September 8 was the happiest and most wonderful meal that Long Yun, Li Zongren, and Bai Chongxi had eaten, and Tang Qiuli slowly walked into the scene of the press conference surrounded by several feudal officials.

Those reporters who saw Tang Qiuli for the first time picked up their cameras and took a burst of shots, but muttered in their hearts, "Look at this Vice Chairman Tang, with a personable demeanor, heroic posture, neat military uniform, and a military demeanor, he is not like the kind of butcher who talks about it on the street, and there is no violent atmosphere on his body. ”

The press conference was personally presided over by Yunnan Provincial Chairman Long Yun, who felt very embarrassed, his face was full of red light, his voice was loud, and he announced loudly: "Ladies and gentlemen, Vice Chairman Tang of the Military Committee of the National People's Political Affairs and Military Affairs has gone to Manila to attend the press conference of the Supreme Military Conference of the Allied Forces. ”

As soon as Long Yun finished speaking, a young female reporter stood up at the bottom, just at the right age, dressed fashionably, exuding a charming atmosphere, she was beautiful and had a good voice, "May I ask Vice Chairman Tang, what is the specific content of the discussion when I go to Manila this time to participate in the highest military meeting of the Allied Forces?" Is it convenient to reveal some in advance? ”

Tang Qiuli smiled and nodded, and said: "I am very willing to answer this reporter's question, as we all know, in front of Southeast Asia and the South Pacific region, the most unstable and dangerous factor is the Japanese invaders, who have hundreds of thousands of soldiers in Burma, and will attack northern Myanmar and the Indochina Peninsula at any time, thus threatening the security of China's southern border." ”

"Since the Japanese army can attack our border in the north, then they will also go south and attack any place, because this is the aggressive nature of the Japanese, therefore, the core topic of this meeting is nothing more than to take precautions before they happen, and discuss with the generals of the allied forces the specific strategy of completely eliminating regional instability and dangerous factors, as for the details, please forgive me, this is a military secret, it is inconvenient to disclose."

Chief of Staff Yang Ketian, who was taking care of the scene in the audience, couldn't help but laugh secretly, "The division commander is too good at joking, what he said just now is equivalent to saying clearly, with the Americans, how to fight the Japanese, specifically, how to beat Ito's old devil, and what details cannot be revealed, this sentence was disclosed by reporters, not only the Americans shouted that they were wronged, but the Japanese were also angry enough, and they must have scolded the Yankees for being two-faced, not things, here they are making money from the Japanese, and there are conspiring with the Chinese to start behind their backs." ”

Sure enough, Tang Qiuli's words aroused great curiosity among reporters, and some reporters asked: "May I ask Vice Chairman Tang, in your heart, is it conducive to the overall deployment of the Burma campaign?" After a meeting with the Allied generals Manila, military action would be taken against the Japanese army? ”

Tang Qiuli used military secrecy as an excuse and never talked about the details, but said, "Fellow journalists, when the time comes, welcome everyone to the front line in Burma for interviews, and our troops of the North China Independent Division will give you the most extensive freedom of the press, and you can go wherever you want."

During this period, there were also discordant voices, and a reporter from the Central News Agency asked: "May I ask Vice Chairman Tang, is the incident that happened in Guiyang a few days ago about the shooting of Xu Liejun, former chairman of the Guizhou Provincial Government, not tried by a military court?" Were more than 2,000 of his men slaughtered by your men? ”

Tang Qiuli's originally smiling face in the spring breeze suddenly became cold, and his knife-like gaze glanced at the reporter of the Central News Agency, and the reporter felt a burst of coldness on his body, and secretly communicated, "My God, the murderous aura in this gaze is infiltrating enough, no wonder it is rumored by the outside world that this young vice chairman is kind on the surface, but he is a murderous person on the inside,"

However, since the question was asked, the reporter also took the plunge and stared at Tang Qiuli to see how he answered his question, Tang Qiuli said: "The only theme of today's press conference is that Tang is about to go to Manila to meet with the Allied generals. ”

"Okay, I'll just say a few more words, I think you have all read my Ming telegram, no need to explain, Xu Liejun in our independent division troops, in Burma and the Japanese army bloody battle, brazenly waved troops to attack our rear base, killing nearly 10,000 defenders of our independent division Guiyang, we are fighting the Japanese in the front, Xu Liejun killed my soldiers in the rear, attacking my base, this kind of behavior, people and gods are angry, and traitors are no different."

"This army waved its troops to quell the rebellion, captured the chief evil Xu Liejun, and immediately shot him, this is my consistent practice of traitors, and it is also in accordance with the provisions listed in the regulations on the punishment of traitors in wartime promulgated by the National Civil Affairs and Military Commission in 37 years. This kind of traitorous and evil person, living in the world for a minute longer, is a danger to the country, as soon as possible, it should be a very happy move, this reporter friend, why do you have this question? ”
