Chapter 1173 A Chance to Talk

At the press conference held in Kunming, a reporter from the Central News Agency asked a question with ulterior motives, and Tang Qiuli replied in a cold tone, and finally asked, "Why do you have such a question?" ”

The reporter was stunned for a moment, and said forcefully: "The truth of the incident, we reporters and the people, have the right to know, it is rumored from the outside world that Vice Chairman Tang is using violent means to eradicate dissidents and achieve his goal of monopolizing Guizhou, as the leader of the national government, you should listen to the voice of the people," Tang Qiuli smiled coldly, "Finally jumped out." ”

Glancing at the audience, the atmosphere at the reception was a little tense, everyone heard it, this reporter's question was a deliberate provocation, no matter what, Xu Lie was self-defeating, and his attack on Guiyang, one of the rear bases of the Independent Division, was a fact that could not be erased, right? Tang Qiuli's face made everyone feel that they were already on the verge of anger.

The most anxious thing is the host of the press conference, Long Yun, looking at the reporter of the Central News Agency who is thin and wearing a pair of gold-wire glasses, foaming at the mouth and arguing with strong words, he is angry and anxious, "It's really a donkey jumping out of the flock, these words, even Lao Jiang's dare not say in front of this young vice chairman, have you taken the wrong medicine?" ”

Long Yun was just about to call the guards and blast out this guy who was destroying the atmosphere, Tang Qiuli waved his hand, raised his voice a few degrees, and said, "Eradicate dissidents?" It's a shame for you to say it, the traitor is not a dissident, a national thief, a scum, everyone gets it and is punished, the voice of the people? Can you represent the people at large? Go back and tell the people behind you, don't come to this set, take out a little-known little person, do mad dogs barking, fighting horses, completely ignoring the facts, and don't believe it, the real identity of this reporter should be an agent of the Central Bureau of Statistics, right? ”

The room is full of shock, this guy is from the Central Bureau? This reporter's face is sallow, he can't figure it out, his identity is extremely hidden, why did Tang Qiu reveal it as soon as he opened his mouth? As soon as he lowered his head, he was about to slip away, Tang Qiuli shouted, "Stop, I haven't finished my words yet, don't worry, you won't have any danger to your life, and it's not worth the value of a bullet." ”

As if he had been immobilized, this agent of the Central Bureau of Statistics, disguised as a reporter, turned around tremblingly, because there was no order from the mountain tiger to the soldiers of the special guards, and he didn't do anything to take this guy, but the people around him, as if they saw a flood beast, they were afraid to avoid it, so they all dodged and hid to the side, leaving this guy, alone to bear Tang Qiuli's sharp gaze.

Tang Qiuli smiled contemptuously, and then said: "Shoot at a guy like you, it is not a martial victory, it is suitable for the laughing stock of the world, you should go to the villages around Guiyang, look at the qiē that happened there, look at the bloodstains everywhere, look at the villages that have become scorched earth and are in ruins, look at the villages that have been killed, look at the people who escaped by luck, crying dry tears, you won't say some nonsense here, this answers your second question, I also want to sue you, anyone who slaughters our ordinary people, Tang Qiuli will kill all of them! Get lost! ”

This guy hugged his head and ran out, at the reception scene, a burst of thunderous applause rang out, these reporters already have a new interview target, before Tang Qiuli said these words, they were also half-convinced, after all, more than 2,000 prisoners were shot, this is an unchangeable fact.

However, they don't know the details and specific reasons, and some reporters, behind their backs, call Tang Qiuli "Tang Butcher", thinking that he is a murderous person, and they have an attitude of opposition in their hearts.

The reporters got what they wanted, and they learned the inside story of more than 2,000 soldiers of the former Guizhou Provincial Security Force being shot dead en masse, which can be said to be quite fruitful; entrusted by Vice Chairman Tang, Long Yun, chairman of the Yunnan Provincial Government, as the host, held a banquet at the Kunhu Hotel and warmly entertained reporters from all over the world.

The reporters all had the curiosity to catch the news, and when they didn't see Tang Qiuli at the banquet, the reporters surrounded Long Yun and kept asking questions, and the questions were concentrated at the reception site, and the large map of Burma's enemy and our enemies that was hung did it mean that after Vice Chairman Tang met with the Allied generals from Manila, he would take an offensive against the Japanese army in Burma?

Long Yun knows the details, he only knows that the main forces of the independent division are concentrated in Burma, how to deploy and when to carry out the operation, this is the top military secret of the independent division, don't say he doesn't know, even if Tang Qiuli wants to sue him, Long Yun may not be able to listen, a big man, that is a simple character, sometimes, the less you know, the safer, Long Yun knows this.

It is also thanks to Long Yun that he is a person who has experienced a lot of big scenes, for some questions, all on the grounds of involving military secrets, do not answer, just on the shore of Kunming Lake, in a small shop, Tang Qiuli and Shanhu two people, eating Yunnan local snacks with relish, Shanhu swallowed a mouthful of chicken thigh meat of green pepper boy chicken, and said with a smile: "Xiaoqiu, you still have enough brains, if you accompany those reporters, just answering questions, you will be annoyed, then there is still time to eat!" ”

Tang Qiuli also smiled and said: "Huzi, sometimes, you should hide, let others do the things on the scene, and you will be at ease, at this time, Long Yun must be in high spirits, in a comfortable mood, and talk eloquently!" The two laughed, and then, busily dealing with a table of delicacies.

These reporters acted fast enough, and the next day, newspapers across the country used front-page headlines to report on Tang Qiuli's imminent trip to Manila to meet with Allied generals.

The large headline of the article in the newspaper was quite skillful: "Vice Chairman Tang went to Manila for a long time to discuss with high-ranking generals of Britain and the United States and other countries ways to stabilize the situation in Southeast Asia," and "Vice Chairman Tang shoulders the mission, and the day of Luzon's return will be the time when the death knell of the Japanese army on the Indochina Peninsula rings!" "Bear the danger of the country, the general goes overseas, discusses strategies, and decides Central and South in the first war!"

Hey, the newspapers are full of articles, and there is only one core meaning expressed, China, Britain and the United States and other countries have joined hands to deal with the Japanese, and the little devil is a grasshopper after the autumn, and he can't jump for a few days.

General MacArthur, commander-in-chief of the US forces in Southeast Asia and the South Pacific, slapped him on the large desk made of Nanmu, and yelled angrily at the chief of staff, General Stilwell, "Your Excellency, General, what's going on?" That Chinese Tang Qiuli held a press conference in Kunming, and all his words were to draw the eyes of the Japanese to us! It's so cunning! ”

On the desk, there were a few newspapers published today, Stilwell smiled bitterly, and said: "Your Excellency, Commander, we have no way and no right to prevent Tang Qiuli from holding a press conference. ”

MacArthur suddenly relaxed and said: "However, it doesn't matter, in terms of our current relationship with the Japanese, just relying on Tang Qiu's departure from this seat will not cause too much negative impact, but it is absolutely necessary to send a secret envoy to Tokyo to explain the situation to the Japanese, explaining that our American **** team has no intention of fighting with the Japanese army, of course, the Chinese should fight with the Japanese, as for this Tang Qiuli, as long as he arrives in Manila, I will have a way to deal with him." ”

When MacArthur said these words, his face was somewhat hideous, with the demeanor of a cat scratching a mouse, Stilwell frowned lightly, and sighed in his heart, "The upcoming Allied military conference in Manila, before it has started, it will smell of gunpowder, I don't know how much storm it will set off, how many incidents will be made, with the tough character of Tang Qiuli and MacArthur, both sides will not make concessions and compromises, and when the time comes, there will be a lot of fun!" ”

"Bang" This time it was the commander-in-chief of Japan's Southeast Asian dispatch army, General Ito Yanzaburo, who also slapped the table in anger, but Commander Ito's desk was far worse than MacArthur's, but this did not prevent His Excellency the Commander-in-Chief from scolding the Americans, "Baga! Despicable and shameless Americans, born to be greedy vampires, we, the Great Japanese Empire, have not touched your interests, which is already the greatest tolerance. ”

"The Americans, however, regard this tolerance as weakness and deception, and on the one hand engage in lucrative trade with the Empire, and on the other hand collude with the Chinese people, intent on stabbing me in the back, vile, shameless, big bastard, and immediately send someone to take the plane to deliver these newspapers to the base camp and the General Staff."

Ito finished his stomach full of anger, sat on the chair, panting, he was not so much angry, but scared and worried, the current position of the dispatch army happened to be in the middle of Tang Qiuli's independent division and the US army on Luzon, Ito desperately replenished his troops and equipment, but the dispatch army was far from recovering the state of the total victory period, and at this moment, the chances of winning against the independent division were very small.

What he was most afraid of was Tang Qiuli's troops, who immediately launched an attack on the Libao defensive line, and when he was inseparable from the Chinese people, the Americans stabbed him in the back, and he shuddered when he thought about it, this was the worst situation, and the independent division troops that were slowly advancing from the east of Mandalay also involved most of Ito's energy and troops.

How can we prevent this meeting between Tang Qiuli and the Americans at the lowest cost? Ito pondered for a long time, and suddenly, his spirit was shocked, and a cold light appeared in his eyes, and he ordered: "Immediately summon the commander of the air force, the head of the intelligence headquarters, the chief of operations, and other officers to the general headquarters to attend a military meeting." ”
