Apparently someone had already reported it to Liu Xiangxian.
Hearing Liu Lang's footsteps walking in as quietly as possible, Liu Xiang did not look back, still looking out the window, pointing to another bamboo chair next to the small table, "Sit!"
The dim sunlight in the evening shone on Liu Xiang's withered and pale hands, making them look a little desolate.
This may be the so-called hero's end! Liu Lang sighed in his heart and felt inexplicably sad.
This powerful man who rebuked Fang Qiu and defeated many powerful men in the Sichuan War must be feeling helpless at this moment because he was unable to lead his army to Songhu to fight against the foreign invaders due to illness!
"Uncle Yao!"
When Liu Lang called him respectfully and gently sat next to him, Liu Xiang turned his face sideways, smiled slightly on his face that looked a little pale due to anemia, and said: "If you want to smoke, take it yourself. I know you have been here these days.
It will arrive soon and has been prepared for you!"
In the past few years, Liu Lang had often dealt with this clan uncle who had a tough personality and even some willpower. Although the two of them were closely related by blood and could be considered close relatives, they usually discussed official matters. A warm opening like this was still the first time.
once.
Liu Lang's heart trembled slightly, and he became even more worried about the Sichuan giant's health. Sometimes, people actually know their own physical condition better than doctors.
"Just smoke if you want! I just ordered that anyone who comes closer than 30 meters to the door, other than you, will be killed!" Liu Xiang smiled faintly and continued.
"Uncle Yao!" Liu Lang frowned.
"Hehe! Don't think so much, I just don't want my uncle and nephew to be disturbed while they are talking. Don't worry, even if your uncle and I are going to die, I will die on the battlefield against the enemy invaders, not in a hospital bed. You get off
I'm very happy that you can come to the hospital to see me after getting off the plane." Liu Xiang waved his hand slightly to stop Liu Lang from asking questions and said with a faint smile.
"Let's not talk about anything else. You are here just in time. First, tell me in detail how your independent regiment achieved such a great victory in eastern Shanxi. You fought very well in this battle and showed the majesty of our Sichuan Army soldiers, which made the whole country proud.
The people know that our Sichuan Army is not only a gangster in the den, but also a hero in fighting the little devils." When Liu Xiang talked about Liu Lang and the independent regiment's battle in Shanxi, there was a trace of blush on some pale faces, and he stood up a little.
Said excitedly.
There are two huge war zone maps hanging in Liu Xiang's ward, including the Songhu battlefield and the northern battlefields in Shanxi and Hebei. Presumably, these are the two battlefields he cares about most.
The Sichuan Army soldiers who swore to leave Sichuan were divided into two groups, the 22nd Group Army headed for the Shanxi battlefield, and the 23rd Group Army headed for Songhu. As the de facto commander-in-chief of the Sichuan Army, it would be weird if he didn't care.
In front of the King of Sichuan, who was an elder both in terms of command and seniority, Liu Lang would naturally not hide his secrets and would communicate with him about how he would coordinate the vertical and horizontal lines on the eastern Shanxi frontline before the main force of the 22nd Army arrived.
The 129th Division, the 17th Division, and the friendly forces of the 3rd Army reported to Liu Xiang in detail the strategies and tactics of luring the Japanese troops into two groups and finally dividing them and annihilating them.
Liu Xiang didn't say a word during the whole process. He followed Liu Lang's story with his hands behind his back and his eyes moved on the map until Liu Lang mentioned that after the Battle of the River Valley, the entire army raided Jingxing and divided his troops into two groups, making a surprise attack on Shimen all the way.
The surprise attack on the 26th Artillery Regiment roared: "Okay!"
Liu Xiang is indeed a veteran soldier. When he heard this, he knew that the destruction of the 20th Division was doomed. Without the logistics support base and fire support, the combat power of the two infantry regiments would be reversed.
God, there is no way to escape from the Taihang Mountains. Especially when Liu Lang personally led more than 2,000 people to attack Shimen, it was even more heart-wrenching for Black Tiger. It was a ruthless move that prevented even one soldier of the 20th Division from escaping.
However, after Liu Xiang shouted "Okay!", he did not praise Liu Lang for his use of troops. Instead, he said suddenly: "Through this cooperation, you have greatly improved the combat effectiveness of the 18th Group Army and Liu Bojian and his subordinates."
What do you think of the general’s commanding ability?”
"This..." Liu Lang was slightly startled.
"Don't worry, we are just you and my uncle and nephew here. You know, before the two parties issued a joint anti-Japanese statement, people from Yan'an came into contact with me. I, Liu Xiang, did not do anything to them, although I did not have any contact with them.
What kind of agreement was reached, but they were allowed to stay in Chengdu. The so-called previous hatred was just a feud between brothers. When the little devil came, he wanted to rob all the bottles and cans left by my Chinese ancestors. Then
Why are we Chinese still fighting among ourselves?" Liu Xiang seemed to have guessed Liu Lang's scruples and said to himself. He glanced at Liu Lang sideways and said: "Besides, you kid, don't pretend to be for me.
Those little tricks you did in the past, if I hadn't covered them up for you, I'm afraid the Liu family's ancestral graves would have been dug up by those from Nanjing."
"Ahem! Commander Liu calls me Zhao Zilong in Sichuan. Of course, he doesn't mention his commanding ability. His commander, Brigadier Chen, is one of the Three Elites of Huangpu, and his ability is even better. The composition of the entire infantry division's officers and soldiers is basically a one-to-one ratio of veterans and recruits.
After this war, the new recruits also became veterans. Although there were more than 3,000 casualties, their muscles and bones were basically untouched. That is to say, the equipment of the 18th Group Army was slightly worse, but it captured a huge amount from the enemy this time and basically changed its equipment.
After being equipped with all-Japanese equipment, if you face a division of the enemy Japanese invaders, I'm afraid you will still be defeated, but if you face an infantry brigade, you should be able to win." Liu Lang told the truth with some embarrassment.
Through previous meetings with Liu Wenhui and Liu Xiang, Liu Lang had already noticed the way of survival of these traditional Chinese big families who habitually invest on both sides. This has almost been the survival rule inherited by the super big families in China for thousands of years.
In troubled times, after analyzing the forces that are likely to dominate the situation, outstanding members of the family will be sent to join these forces. In the end, no matter which force gains the right to rule, the family's bloodline will always be continued and will not be wiped out in these troubled times.
Although the Liu family is not a traditional family that has lasted for thousands of years, after the birth of two outstanding children, Liu Wenhui and Liu Xiang, the Liu family in Sichuan has become one of the largest families in Sichuan. It is natural that how to continue the family
Bloodline is also one of the issues that the two of them have to think about while taking control of their own power.
Being able to notice the red forces when they are still weak and are called "bandits" by the government that has apparently unified China and list them as investment targets shows that they are beyond the control of the vast majority of people.
Vision. At least in this aspect, Liu Lang feels inferior. If he hadn't come from time to time, he would probably look down on that group of idealistic people who only have ideals but lack sufficient financial support.
This is actually a question that is difficult for countless future generations to figure out. Why is it that ideals alone can bring a group of people who can be called the most elite of that era to gather together to form a small but tenacious little flame, and finally form a small flame?
A prairie fire, burning the whole of China, leading the entire nation to Nirvana and rebirth, heading towards another great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation in hundreds of years?
Many people said that they were lucky enough. The Soviet area was gone, and they moved thousands of miles to northern Shaanxi. They were severely suppressed and struggled to support themselves. The arrival of Little Japan gave them a breath of relief. Finally, they survived the cruel Wei Dynasty.
In the war between the two countries, he strengthened himself and defeated opponents that were much stronger than himself.
Luck is actually one of the many factors of success. It cannot be seen or touched, but it is very important. In Liu Lang's view, it is actually the "general trend" mentioned by Buddhism. The Chinese nation is a nation that advocates moderation to its core. As the most important nation,
One of the ancient civilizations, it entered the feudal society from slave society very early and continued the tradition for thousands of years.
However, there will be a change of dynasties every few hundred years, and the turmoil caused by this will regress the social economy and civilization until China's century of humiliation in modern times has proved that feudalism in China is no longer suitable for this era. The future of Bay Province
It is extremely difficult to govern Xiaoxiaowan Province by pulling each other's back and trying to imitate the Three People's Principles of Western democracy. If it were placed in China, which has dozens of times the population, it would be a disaster.
China and the Chinese nation need this "idealized" new type of democratic regime to govern the country. Future facts have proven that they can make the people live a very good life. Although they also have disadvantages of one kind or another. But, they can
Keeping 1.4 billion people fed is an extremely remarkable achievement.
Based on this judgment, Liu Lang's previous flirting with the red troops in Sichuan did not hide his intentions at all. He just wanted to send a signal that he was a member of the Liu family and he wanted to take them on a different journey.
The Liu family of the road.
To be honest, it was also a kind of temptation.
However, the two of them had a tacit understanding of each other and never mentioned it publicly. I do what I do, and you do what you do. It was very embarrassing to suddenly say it openly!
"Haha! With the ability of Commander Liu, if he is willing to come to our Sichuan Army, I can hand over the position of commander-in-chief of the 23rd Army to him. But such a great talent has already joined the Red Army more than ten years ago.
Under the army, can you tell me, they have no money, no guns, and no stable territory, why would he choose them?" After listening to Liu Lang's evaluation, Liu Xiang asked again.
"Maybe it's because of their own ideals! Their army recruits all poor peasants who don't have enough to eat and don't have warm clothes." Liu Lang gave a somewhat vague answer.
"You want to say that the class they represent is different from ours! That's why they are scary! After all, that is the foundation of China!" Liu Xiang was extremely smart, shaking his head slightly and sighing: "But,
We can’t say that all rich people are bad guys! Your father is also a well-known good man in Sichuan, and it is common for him to build bridges and roads for the elders in his hometown to help the people!"
Liu Lang remained silent.
This was probably the deadlock between the peasant class and the elite class of that era, and no one could break it. Even the elites who occupied the leadership of the peasant class were helpless. The first thing they wanted to revolutionize was the fate of their own families.
.
Nothing is ever achieved overnight. It always needs to be slowly reflected upon and gradually corrected during development!
"Whatever, these cannot be explained clearly in a few words." Liu Xiang shook his head and did not ask any further questions about the matter, "However, if I were to evaluate the world's heroes, the one from Yan'an is firmly in the top three."
This sentence can be regarded as the final conclusion to the conversation between the uncle and nephew about the color red.
For smart people, there are some things that don’t need to be said too clearly.
There are some things that don’t need to be said to idiots.
