Looking at Yang Junran arriving in front of him, Li Zongren had a smile on his face.
But if you look carefully, Li Zongren's behavior is obviously a little nervous. Although he tried his best to hide it, if you look carefully, you can still find it.
But Yang Junran did not check these, but sat directly on the sofa.
"President Yang, I have been in poor health these days and have not been in charge of the work of the Ministry of National Defense. I feel very guilty. The country is in a difficult time, but as the Minister of Defense, I fell ill at this time. I really owe President Yang Expectations." Li Zongren looked at Yang Junran and said with a guilty look on his face.
Yang Junran smiled and motioned for Li Zongren to sit down.
When Li Zongren sat on the sofa nearby, Yang Junran said slowly, "Minister Li, don't have any psychological pressure. Getting sick is something that everyone will have, and we can't stop it. But as long as the illness is cured, You can still serve the country, but I want to remind Minister Li that when people are sick, they are always prone to do some stupid things, so Minister Li should be more careful."
Li Zongren felt a little suspicious after listening to Yang Junran's words. The main purpose of inviting Yang Junran here this time was to attack Yang Junran. The Soviet Union had provided him with a slow-acting poison. Li Zongren planned to let Yang Junran take it, but Yang Junran's words surprised Li Zongren.
Did Yang Junran discover his actions? Li Zongren began to think about it, but no one knew about the whole thing except himself and Gavrisha. What was Yang Junran hinting to him?
Looking at Li Zongren who was meditating on the side, Yang Junran didn't say anything, but just took the fruit on the table and started eating.
The only person who came with Yang Junran was Zhao Jiaxiang, director of the Second Division.
Zhao Jiaxiang stood behind Yang Junran and said nothing about the conversation between the two.
"Minister Li, what do you think about the war in foreign countries?" Yang Junran noticed Li Zongren's change and asked with a smile.
After Li Zongren heard Yang Junran¡¯s question, he immediately took out a map.
"President Yang, the main purpose of inviting you today is to talk about my views on foreign war. The Soviet Union is now at a disadvantage, but the coordination group from the United Nations arrived at this time. This undoubtedly helped the Soviets I think our troops should immediately encircle and annihilate the Soviet assault group. After eating the assault group, we should use the main force of the armored corps to cooperate with Chu Xi General Chun's Central Corps launched an attack on the Soviet Novosibirsk Front. As long as we get rid of the Novosibirsk Front, the entire initiative of the battle will be in our hands." Li Zongren laid out the map on the table and pointed He held his position outside and spoke in a decent manner.
Yang Junran had a smile on his face, looked at Li Zongren and said, "I'm very happy that Minister Li is still able to study foreign operations despite being ill. Is there any wine here, Minister Li? Let's drink some today. By the way." Let¡¯s talk about the war abroad.¡±
Yang Junran¡¯s words made Li Zongren very surprised. Yang Junran took the initiative to drink, but he played into Li Zongren¡¯s hands. However, thinking of what Yang Junran said earlier, Li Zongren hesitated again.
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? Coincidence? Li Zongren thought in his heart that he did not dare to observe Yang Junran's expression for fear that Yang Junran would see his guilty conscience.
After a moment of silence, Li Zongren still asked someone to bring out the drinks.
Li Zongren personally poured a glass of wine for Yang Junran, and poured another glass of wine for himself, with a smile on his face.
"President Yang, having wine but no food is a bit unsightly. Why don't I go to the back to prepare some delicacies so that President Yang can taste some of our Guangxi delicacies." Li Zongren looked at Yang Junran and said with a smile.
Yang Junran nodded, but didn't say anything.
Li Zongren stood up slowly, looked at Yang Junran, then at Zhao Jiaxiang, and walked inside.
"Minister Li, I went to see He Yingqin today." Yang Junran said softly.
Li Zongren looked back and saw that Yang Junran was still drinking and looking at the map.
Li Zongren did not poison the wine because he wanted to drink with Yang Junran, so he would not poison the wine. But the delicacy he wanted to prepare was a deadly poison.
Listening to Yang Junran¡¯s somewhat unusual words, Li Zongren fell silent and stared blankly.?Stay in place.
"Do you know what He Yingqin and I talked about?" Yang Junran put down his wine glass and looked at Li Zongren and said.
Li Zongren shook his head dully and stared at Yang Junran.
"He Yingqin said that I don't have any scheming. If it weren't for people like Cui Zhengming, I would have died many times. He said that although China seems to be peaceful now, in fact it is turbulent. Although I have eliminated the warlords from all over the country, Although they had gained military power, they would not easily withdraw from the stage of history. They wanted to perform on this stage and perform the most glorious scene. But I told He Yingqin that if he had not launched the rebellion in Chongqing, he would have Maybe he will stay in the government, and I will give him the status of a famous anti-war general, but he is nothing now. If it weren't for my kindness, he would have died long ago." Yang Junran said coldly.
Having said this, Yang Junran stood up and walked to Li Zongren's side.
"People will inevitably make mistakes, but for some mistakes, there will be opportunities to change. But for some mistakes, once you make them, you will be held responsible, and there will be no chance for changes. Minister Li, you have to make a clear choice. Once certain mistakes are made, there is no chance to change them." Yang Junran said helplessly.
After finishing speaking, Yang Junran sat on the sofa again, poured himself a glass of wine, and drank it alone.
Li Zongren stood there blankly. If what happened before was a complete coincidence, then what Yang Junran said now was completely a warning. Li Zongren can be sure of one thing, that is his plan, and Yang Junran already knows it.
¡°But Li Zongren couldn¡¯t understand that neither he nor Gavriusa could tell this matter.
"Yang Junran, since you are" Li Zongren pointed at Yang Junran and said coldly.
But he was stopped by Yang Junran just as he was halfway through his words.
"Now is not the time to fight to the death. I know you are unconvinced, but the facts are already before your eyes. It's not that I dare not touch you, but I consider the morale of the officers and soldiers on the front line, and even more considerate of your officers and soldiers of the Gui Army. They How should they treat you, and how should they treat this matter. I don't want you to affect the morale of the frontline officers and soldiers. I'm giving you a chance, and this is the last chance." Yang Junran said coldly.
After finishing speaking, Yang Junran walked out.
When he arrived at the entrance, Yang Junran looked at Li Zongren and said, "Gavriusa is at Director Cui's place. If you have time, you can go and have a look."
Li Zongren slumped on the sofa, his face very pale.
But facing such a result, he had no choice.
On September 5, 1945, the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs issued a notice that the Intelligence Bureau had uncovered the assassination of President Yang Junran by the Soviet Union. On this basis, China refused to negotiate with the Soviet Union. Soviet personnel represented by Molotov were driven away.
On September 10, 1945, Minister of National Defense Li Zongren resigned from the post of Minister of National Defense and was replaced by Fang Hanqin as Acting Minister. Huang Shaohong served as Deputy Minister of National Defense, and Liu Fei succeeded him as Chief of Staff of the Foreign War Zone.
At the same time, Fang Hanqin, in the name of the Acting Minister of Defense, issued a war mobilization order, requiring the country's seven theaters to begin forming reserve corps to serve as regional defense, and all active-duty corps in the theaters to be on standby to prepare to support foreign operations.
On September 15th, the Ministry of National Defense re-formulated the order of battle for the foreign war zone. Bai Chongxi is the commander-in-chief of the theater, Liu Zhi is the deputy commander-in-chief of the theater, and Liu Fei is the chief of staff of the theater. The three corps affiliated to the theater will not be changed, but the armored corps will be transferred from the reserve corps to the central corps and will be commanded by Chu Xichun, commander of the central corps.
The Japanese troops led by Okamura Neiji were assigned to the reserve corps and were responsible for the defense of the Kobdo area.
The second combat group in the northeastern region has been supplemented by the newly formed three heavy tank regiments, two aviation teams, and a large number of auxiliary arms.
On September 20, the Chinese government officially informed the Soviet Union that the Soviet troops must unconditionally withdraw from the foreign areas within ten days, otherwise the Chinese troops would launch a full-scale attack. This full-scale attack, It is not just a war against foreign enemies, but a war against the Soviet Union itself. If possible, Chinese troops will cancel all treaties signed by the Qing Dynasty and Russia and seize territory controlled by the Soviet Union.
The atmosphere of war has begun to rise, and China's two million active troops have begun to prepare for battle. Two million reserve troops have also begun to be formed. V-2 rockets, used as deterrent weapons, have also been deployed separately under the leadership of Artillery Commander-in-Chief Long Yan.As long as the Soviet army does not retreat within the prescribed range in the three regions of Outer Mongolia, Northeast China, and North Korea, these rockets will quickly launch into Soviet territory.
Soviet Union, Moscow.
Stalin frowned tightly as he looked at the announcement issued by the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
Threat, the threat of Chiluoluo. Since Stalin took control of the Soviet Union, he has never seen any country dare to threaten the Soviet Union like this. If Europe had not contained too many Soviet troops, Stalin would have mobilized two to three million troops to fight in foreign countries and teach the Chinese government a lesson.
But now, he doesn¡¯t have too many chips in his hand.
"According to the announcement of the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the encircled assault group must choose to unconditionally lay down their weapons on the 25th, otherwise the Chinese troops will attack them. This time the Chinese government's attitude is very tough. What we are facing The pressure is also great. At present, according to your instructions, we have reinforced two synthetic groups, with a total of four infantry corps, two tank corps, two mechanized corps, and four rocket artillery divisions, as well as related air forces. "Zhukov took a telegram, walked to Stalin's side and said.
Stalin looked at the message and frowned tightly. If the Chinese troops in the northeast region want to launch an attack, I am afraid that some of the two combined groups will have to be deployed for local defense. Thinking of this, Stalin's face became a little unhappy.
