"What's next?"
Long Yun looked at Tang Jie with his burning eyes, hoping to get more shocking news from him.
Now, just by managing the governors of the three southwestern provinces and establishing the Southwestern Bank, this old man, who had been in the political and military world for many years, saw the hope of breaking free from the control of the national team and rejuvenating the southwest.
Bald Man was far worse than Long Yun when it came to governing the place.
Long Yun had been in charge of Dian Province for eighteen years. Apart from building the 220,000 elite Dian Army, which wasn't weaker than the national army, he had also made outstanding contributions to the local government.
Politically, Yunnan's politics were clear, society was stable, and the atmosphere of democratism was strong.
In terms of public security, the various military forces were cleaned up and the bandits were eliminated. The bandits gradually subsided and the people were able to live in peace.
In terms of economy, they were working hard to rectify finance and taxation, consolidate finance, stabilize the currency, and set up industries.
In agriculture, they expanded the cultivated land, reduced taxes, and stored grain. They went from imported grain to self-sufficient grain. Even during the Anti-Japanese War, a large number of troops and people poured into Dian Province, but Dian Province never lacked food.
The most important thing was the transportation construction. There were as many as six roads leading out of the province. The Yunnan-Guizhou Road, the Yunnan-Kang Road, the West Sichuan-Yunnan Road, the East Sichuan-Yunnan Road, the Yunnan-Guangxi Road, the Yunnan-Kang Road, and the Yunnan-Myanmar Road were all built by Long Yun.
"After the southwest finances are consolidated, we will wait for the right time.”
"The current international situation is very clear. The war in Myanmar will break out at the end of the year at the latest.”
"At that time, it would be appropriate for the three southwestern provinces to propose the establishment of the Southwest Joint Defense Command.”
"Moreover, my advance party will enter Myanmar as soon as possible to control a piece of land and build an arsenal.”
"The people of Sun Never Sets have built many military warehouses in Myanmar, with hundreds of thousands of weapons.”
Tang Jie added with a burning gaze.
At this moment.
Long Yun understood. They had to enter Myanmar. This was their chance.
Once the expeditionary force entered Myanmar, the Southwest would be empty. The bald man would not dare to stop the Southwest from establishing a joint defense command. With Tang Jie's support, a large number of British weapons would be transported from Myanmar. The Southwest Armed Police would be successfully established and transformed into an elite force that was not inferior to the national army.
As long as Long Yun, Liu Xiang, and Liu Wenhui had thirty thousand soldiers, they could defend Spring City, Shu City, and Liang City.
Even if Baldy wanted to attack the southwest, he would have to consider whether he had enough power.
After he figured it out, Long Yun made a decision."I will contact the officials of Dian Province immediately and send Liu Wenhui to the position of governor of Qian Province.”
Hearing this.
Tang Jie's face immediately showed a trace of joy. As long as Long Yun agreed, this matter would be half successful. The other half would depend on Liu Xiang and Liu Wenhui.
Tang Jie had some confidence in these two warlords who had been running the Sichuan Province for decades.
"Oh right, Uncle Yun."
"I need your help with something else.”
"Oh? What is it?"
Long Yun raised his eyebrows.
"It's like this."
"I heard that the national team has sent a small military observation team," explained Tang Jie immediately.”
"My advance party hasn't entered Myanmar yet. If we rashly enter Myanmar, we'll definitely suffer a huge loss.”
"So, I want you to add me to the military visiting observation group. The advance party will send a company to protect the military visiting observation group.”
Currently, the Japanese had yet to invade Myanmar, and the Sun Never Sets Empire would not allow the Yan Huang army to enter.
Moreover, the most convenient route to enter the country from Dian Province was at the front line of Tengchong and Longling. Although the advance party was not large, who could not see eight thousand fully armed soldiers crossing the Nu River?
Even though a small portion of the expeditionary force had only entered the eastern region of Myanmar in mid-February 1942, the rest of the troops were still gathered on the Yunnan-Myanmar highway.
Therefore, Tang Jie wanted to let the reconnaissance company enter Myanmar in advance to find out the location of the British army's garrison and warehouses, and to map out the entire Myanmar terrain.
This way, once the advance party entered Myanmar, they would be able to smoothly complete their goal.
"Kid, you have ulterior motives!”
Long Yun looked at Tang Jie with a faint smile."Alright, I'll immediately arrange for someone to handle this matter.”
"Today, the national team will file a report. You can cross the Nu River directly and enter Myanmar.”
"Oh right, Fan Tianxi is a talented general. Don't waste him.”
Long Yun knew that the Tang Family wouldn't stay so well-behaved.
After all, the Tang family's wealth had already reached the point where everyone coveted it.
At this time, unless they had a powerful army, it would be very difficult to protect the Tang family.
During this period of time, the Tang family's factory had been sending materials to Chan Da. There were as many as 100,000 sets of military uniforms, construction machinery, cement, and steel bars.
It would be suspicious if Tang Jie had no other plans!
"That won't do."
While Long Yun was talking, Tang Jie had already left the office. He raised his right hand and waved it.
"This brat."
Seeing that, Long Yun smiled helplessly. He quickly called his adjutant to deal with those important matters.
Compared to what Tang Jie had done in Chan Da, he was more concerned about how the three southwestern provinces would unite again.
"Guild Leader."
"Brigadier Fan is already waiting for you at home.”
As soon as they left Long Yun's residence, Tang Jie saw Tang Zhenzhong, the captain of the reconnaissance team, walking up to them.
" Yes," he said, nodding." Get in the car. We're going to Uncle Fan's house."”
It was getting late. He had to finish the matters in Spring City as soon as possible and return to Chan Da with Fan Tianxi. Only then would he be free to lead the army into Myanmar.
......
Half an hour later.
The reconnaissance company escorted Tang Jie to a courtyard by the lake.
"Whoosh!"
Jie Tang got out of the car and strode into the courtyard.
The Fan manor was a spacious courtyard with three entrances. There was a screen wall, a gatehouse, and then a hall.
There were all kinds of flowers and saplings around, giving off a quiet feeling of a bustling city.
"Major."
"You're finally here."
When Fan Tianxi saw Tang Jie come in, his serious expression finally relaxed a little.
There were not only a few men in the courtyard, but there was also a delicate girl. Wang Nujiang's sister, Wang Yan, looked cold, but in fact, her words were piercing. Fan Tianxi's old face could not take it, not to mention that it was Fan Tianxi who was not kind.
"Uncle Fan."
Tang Jie nodded at Fan Tianxi, then looked at the righteous man standing in the main hall and said,"You must be Wang Nujiang. There was a reason for this, and I had no choice but to let Uncle Fan do this.”
"Who are you?"
"Kidnapping us in broad daylight, is there any law?”
Before Wang Nujiang could speak, Wang Yan, who was at the side, directly went forward and questioned him.
She was wearing a plain, gingko patterned cheongsam. She had an oval-shaped face and furrowed eyebrows. Her short hair that reached her neck looked extremely neat.
Standing in the hall, she was like a wintersweet that bloomed in the cold winter, proud and unyielding.
" Wang Yan, 21 years old. She graduated from Southwest United University with a major in radio. She's proficient in Japanese, English, and French. Other than her physical shortcomings, she's an excellent university graduate."”
"You investigated me?"
When Wang Yan heard this, her eyebrows stood up, and her beautiful eyes were filled with anger.
Fan Tianxi looked at Tang Jie and Wang Yan with a strange expression. At first, he thought that Tang Jie's target was Wang Nujiang, but now he felt that Tang Jie's target was more likely to be Wang Nujiang's girl. Otherwise, how could he know so well?
Moreover, Tang Jie was also 22 years old, only one year away from Wang Nujiang's sister. They were a good match.
Thinking of this, Fan Tianxi could not help but look at the two of them.
However, at this moment, Wang Nujiang, who was beside him, became anxious. He stood up and said loudly,"Officer, if I, Wang Nujiang, have offended you, I'll admit that I want to kill you. But if you dare to touch a hair on my sister's head, I'll fight you to the death even if I have to give up my life.”
