At the end of 1935, two events that had a profound impact on the general trend of the world occurred.

The first thing is that on November 3, 1935, the Ministry of Finance of the ** Government issued an announcement on the implementation of the fiat currency, announcing the unified currency issuance rights, the implementation of state-owned silver, and the abandonment of the silver standard and the adoption of the foreign exchange standard.

This means that the ** government has become a truly modern country, at least in the monetary system, that's what it is.

As for this second thing, on November 12, 1935, the fifth National Congress of the ** Party opened, and Jiang Ruiyuan delivered his public speech: "Peace has not reached a time of despair, and never give up peace."

In the quiet suburbs, Zhong Yang's manor merges with the surrounding mountains and forests, and a pure and beautiful atmosphere of nature permeates it. The sparse fields, vast pastures, and scattered sheep and cows outline a peaceful rural picture.

Zhong Yang held Zhang Yinyin's hand and walked leisurely in the grassland. It had been eight years since the two got married, but they had not given birth to any children. The Zhang family complained about this, and Zhong Yang himself noticed it, but he couldn't say anything about this.

The key to the problem is that Zhong Yang's physiological circulation mechanism has changed. Although he can still have a room with his wife, it seems that he cannot get Zhang Yinyin pregnant.

Zhang Yinyin didn't say anything about this, but Zhong Yang still saw his wife's thoughts. For the sake of the present, he could only spend more time with his wife. Perhaps adopting a child would be good.

Looking at the corners of his former sweetheart's eyes, Zhong Yang was also sighing that time flies, and many people around him are gradually getting older, but he is still young as before. It is not obvious yet, but one day, he will witness death with his own eyes, which is the loneliness of the immortal.

A tiger roar came from behind. It turned out to be two huge adult South China tigers. In their bloody mouths, they had extremely sharp fangs, and their strong bites were enough to tear the muscles and even bones of the prey. But Zhong Yang and Zhang Yinyin were not afraid at all, but instead showed a knowing smile on their faces.

"Two naughty little guys are starting to hungry again. OK, and my mother will prepare a sumptuous dinner for you when she returns." The sweet voice, with the unique nobility of a man, is as mellow and fragrant as a rose.

Because she has no children, Zhang Yinyin also devoted all her maternal love and attachment to the two South China tigers she adopted. It can be seen that she likes children very much. Zhong Yang's heart is transparent about this, but she can only speak silently.

The transformation of the biological body is irreversible, and the restraint of the spiritual operation mechanism has led to Zhong Yang's inability to inject a small soul fire when he is having sex with his wife, so he naturally cannot give birth to a new life.

This is the price of eternal life. At the beginning of Zhong Yang's choice to embark on this path, he had already paid "death" and "continuation of life". The immortals are lonely, but this is not necessarily sadness, it is just a small choice.

The magnificent Sky Hall is quietly located in a remote suburb, surrounded by mountains, birds singing and flowers, pavilions and towers, and bamboo shadows. Even in the severe winter, the weather here in Guangzhou is only a little colder.

There is no heavy snow on goose feathers, and the green vegetation has never withered and yellowed. Everything is almost like late autumn, with only a little more cold wind blowing the horn of the cold wind.

The stone sculptures, exquisite and detailed murals, and many treasures from various dynasties are decorated for visitors to enjoy. Zhong Yang, who excavated the ancestral tomb of Jiannu, has no shortage of these cultural relics and antiques at all.

And because of the nourishment of the spiritual energy of the earth veins, the growth progress of the subspace has also become higher. Although the area has not continued to expand, the energy cycle of the entire space is more stable than before, which is the most gratifying thing.

Subspace and smart factories are everything about Zhong Yang. He has no nostalgia for the wealth and status of the main world. However, he cares very much about his biggest trump card.

"The negotiations with the ** government were not satisfactory. Jiang Ruiyuan still hoped to preserve his strength at this stage and frequently contacted the political and friendly associations of the Japanese peacemakers, and placed hope for the future of the party and the country in peace talks."

"This is of course. The war is very unfavorable for the ** Army. Moreover, our army has occupied the entire Fujian Province and the power line has advanced to the lower reaches of the Yangtze River. In order to consolidate the regime, did Jiang Ruiyuan arrange his general Xue Yue to comprehensively attack Sichuan, Yunnan and Guizhou provinces."

"According to the information collected by the underground palace from Baoding, it seems that Zhang Hanqing is not at ease and frequently discusses secretly with the leftists of the Red Gate. I'm afraid he has some plans."

"Japan is not restless, and the secret infiltration of Peking and Tianjin has continued, and our support for anti-Japanese armed forces seems to have angered those crazy soldiers. A large-scale anti-Chinese incident has broken out in Japan, and the Kwantung Army has begun to implement the large immigration plan."

At the core meeting, the light was dim and everyone's face was blocked by shadows, and their expressions and eyes could not be recognized.

Just on April 16, 1935, the Japanese Kwantung Army Command had decided to use 10 million yuan as immigration fees to transplant three million Japanese people in the Northeast within five years. Now that the plan has officially begun, Japanese expatriates and Taiwanese expatriates have successively entered the puppet Manchukuo.

In order to alleviate the employment pressure and the dilemma of domestic economic decline, the Kanto Army launched a war and gained countless benefits. Because of this, many civilians in Japan have fallen into a hysterical and fanatical state and are clamoring to continue launching a war of aggression.

The three major chaebols also focused on China's rich natural resources and spared no effort to support the war. But in addition to these two people, there was also a group of conspirators hiding behind the world, secretly inciting these crazy wills, and they were Jews.

With the Jewish financial chaebols all over the world as the core, a huge black gold empire, on the contrary of justice, uses its own unique means to introduce the whole world to the demon's paradise.

Zhong Yang convened everyone to attend the meeting, mainly to discuss Hualian's subsequent development strategy. Funding for the ** Army must be implemented. No matter how Jiang Ruiyuan avoided it, the war between China and Japan is unavoidable.

Another point is to continue to encircle and kill the leftists of Hongmo. These cancerous diseases in China can only be eliminated, and there is no hesitation or compromise.

Li Zongren has led his troops to attack Guizhou Province and competed with Xue Yue's troops for hegemony on the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau.

As soon as the Red Army entered Guizhou, Wang Jialie, chairman of Guizhou Province and commander of the 25th Army, was so panicked that he didn't know what to do, as if the sky was about to fall. He called for help everywhere, hoping that the Central Army, Hunan Army, and Chinese Army would all fly over, but unexpectedly this was completely "inducing the wolf into the house."

This place in Guizhou is high and the emperor is far away.

Since Tang Jiyao entered Guizhou and supervised Guizhou in 1912, warlords have been separatist and unified. Since then, although the internal struggles of the warlords in Guizhou have been fierce and factions have been in conflict, they can always maintain their own integrity. In April 1932, after conquering his former warlord Mao Guangxiang with force, he became the "Guizhou Batian".

Wang Jialie's troops were relatively weak among the warlords in the four southwestern provinces. Their troops were called five divisions, including Yu Guocai, Jiang Zaizhen and Hou Zhidan, all of which were divided into one side and nominally belonged to the 25th Army. In fact, Wang could not command it. All the king could control He Zhizhong and Bai Huizhang's two divisions.

At that time, the strategic situation of the Red Army and the Guizhou Army was: the intention of the Red Army was to go straight to northwest Guizhou from southeast Guizhou, cross the Wujiang River, occupy Zunyi, and establish a Sichuan-Guizhou border base. Wang Jialie's plan was to avoid the Red Army's military fronts, reduce the consumption of troops, and defend Guiyang.

Wujiang, also known as Qianjiang, is the largest river in Guizhou. It has a rapid flow and high waves, and it is much more steeper than the Xiangjiang River. Hou Zhidang, deputy commander of the 25th Army of the Guizhou Army who was responsible for guarding Wujiang, said: "Wujiang is always called a natural danger. The Red Army has been expeditioned and has a long journey. It will be difficult for the tired army to fly over. The Red Army may not take the risk to attack Wujiang, but may take another route."

In the southwest area, Guizhou is the weakest one, and everyone wants to reach in, so there is no need for Wang Jialie to ask for help. Chen Jitang, Guangdong, who was not very active in fighting the Red Army at his doorstep, and Li Zongren from Guangxi suddenly became "active" and sent telegrams to the central government, asking to lead his troops into Guizhou.

** Commander Jiang Ruiyuan, naturally, was not stupid. He had already fallen in love with this piece of fat meat in Guizhou. He told his secretary Chen Bulei: "Chuan, Yunnan and Guizhou are all in charge. We can follow up when the Communist army enters Guizhou. It is better than using troops specifically for the purpose of Guizhou. Sichuan and Yunnan cannot help us to save themselves, and there is no excuse to stop us from going. This is the best political excuse. In the future, as long as we are properly allocated to politics, military, personnel and economically, we can also create a unified situation."

However, it is not the only one who is interested in the three provinces of Yun, Guizhou and Sichuan. The Chinese army is also drooling in these provinces that produce important strategic resources such as tungsten, antimony and rare earths.

Jiang Ruiyuan tactfully declined Chen Jitang's "good intention" to intervene, and for the troops of Li Zongren, who was close to the close, he only agreed to his subordinate Liao Lei to lead two divisions in.

The only thing he believed in now was Xue Yue's Central Army, and ordered them not to just pursue the Red Army, and to control the provincial capital Guiyang first.

Xue Yue knew this very well and quickly ordered the troops to rush to Guiyang.

At this time, Hunan Provincial Chairman He Jian also had his own "little nine" in his heart. In order to support the Central Red Army, the Chi Er and Chi Liu Le Army occupied the Changde area and threatened Yueyang and Changsha.

Most of He Jian's main forces of the Hunan Army were intercepting the Central Red Army in southern Hunan, and urgently needed to mobilize troops to deal with the Chi Er and Chi Liu Army. On the other hand, he was also worried that once the main forces of the Hunan Army left Hunan and entered Guizhou, they would accept the leadership of the Central Army and lose control of it.

Even though the Hunan Army had already died in name only and had no foundation at all, He Jian still did not give up and was unwilling to give up the military power he held easily.

Therefore, he discussed with Xue Yue and divided the pursuit and suppression army into two, with him and Xue Yue each serving as the commander of the second route of the pursuit and suppression army; he was responsible for dealing with Chi Er and Chi Sixth Corps to prevent him from merging with the Central Red Army, and Xue Yue was responsible for pursuing the Central Red Army to enter Guizhou.

Xue Yue had long since wanted to accept He Jian's leadership, so he just pretended to hesitate and agreed to this suggestion.

Therefore, on December 22, 1934, Xue Yuecai led his eight divisions of the Central Army and four divisions of Liu Jianxu's troops to follow the Red Army into Guizhou, passing through Huangxian, Yuping, Shibing, Huangping, Zhenyuan and other places to pursue. The Red Army went to Yuqing, Wengjiang, Xifeng, and crossed Wujiang to Zunyi and Tongzi.

It was the twelfth lunar month, and the ground was filled with ice.

Although I had long heard that Guizhou was "no land was three feet flat and no one was three cents silver", the rugged roads and poverty here still surprised Xue Yue.

There are stone mountains everywhere with only stones but no plants and trees. The mountain roads are rugged and roads are rarely seen. Most of the houses of mountain people are mud sheds or thatched huts.

The locals rarely grow rice, and most of them are corn and opium. Especially in ethnic minority areas, the people are not covered in clothes, and many women hide in the room because they have no clothes to wear.

Xue Yue's troops chased each other from Jiangxi and did not have a head-on confrontation with the Red Army. The vanguard troops were in Zhenyuan area and occasionally had a few contacts with the Red Fifth Army behind the palace, and the rest were all sent to Guizhou.

In the words of the officers and soldiers of Xue Yue, it is: "Sending off to Guiyang, picking up horse shit, picking up rotten straw sandals, picking up Wujiang, chasing, chasing, chasing, chasing, chasing, chasing, chasing, chasing, chasing, chasing, chasing, chasing, chasing, chasing, chasing, chasing,

The chief general of the Red Army was also naughty and wrote many slogans along the way, such as "I'll send you away if I have time to do it", "Catch Wang Jialie alive and drag the Central Army to death", etc., which really severely hit the morale of the officers and soldiers of Xue Yue's troops.

During the long pursuit, although Xue Yue's troops had not fought with the Red Army, their strength of the troops had been reduced by half due to their escape along the way and their illness. Now, after passing through this poor place that is hard to find in the world, their morale is even lower.

Pessimism and war-weariness spread throughout the army. Low-level officers and soldiers generally believed that if they pursued this way, they would not be killed on the battlefield, but would be dragged to death on the road. Therefore, there were also many soldiers who fled. In the Fourth Army, the number of people in the company was 70 or 80, and the number of people was only 40 or 50.

You know, when we first set out from Jiangxi, there were about 120 people in each company.

The situation of Zhou Hunyuan Column is roughly similar to that of Wu Qiwei Column.

Because of the loss of Ruijin, the remaining main remnants of the Red Army had been evacuated from the three provinces of Hunan, Jiangxi and Fujian. During the major retreat, politicians within the Hongmen also had fierce quarrels. Some people advocated going to places such as Sichuan and Guizhou, which had natural dangers since ancient times, while Ma Ziren believed that going to the northwest was more appropriate.

After all, the Northwest used to be Feng Huanzhang's territory, and now it is often accepted by Zhang Hanqing, and its attitude towards the Hongmen is even more ambiguous. Unlike Jiang Ruiyuan who just beat him to death, he will not give the Chi Jun a chance to breathe.

At this time, the Red Army faced the most serious problem, which was how to break through the siege of the ** Party troops, turn passive into initiative, and open up a new situation.

Around January 20, the Red Army advanced westward from Zunyi and Tongzi areas, defeating the three regiments of the Guizhou warlord Hou Zhidan in Tucheng. On the 29th, they crossed the Chishui River and entered southern Sichuan. They were preparing to cross the Yangtze River north between Luzhou and Yibin in the upper reaches of Chongqing, hoping to meet with the Red Fourth Front Army in northeastern Sichuan.

Jiang Ruiyuan and Xue Yue's intelligence on the Red Army mainly came from aircraft reconnaissance. This operation of the Red Army immediately attracted the attention of senior officials of the ** Army.

Jiang Ruiyuan believed that the Red Army had threatened the southwest and might cross the Yangtze River north. He urgently sent Xue Yue to concentrate the main force Zhou Hunyuan Column crossed the Wujiangkou to pursue the Red Army, and included Wang Jialie's 25th Army in the six-root army.

In addition, a telegram was He Guoguang, a staff team stationed in Sichuan, and Liu Xiang, a warlord in Sichuan, organized the "South Sichuan Suppression General Office" and told He Jian that the divisions of the Hunan Army led by Liu Jianxu would be led by Zhenyuan to occupy Shiqian, and the Yin River continued to advance northward, contacting the E River in Pengshui, forming a blocking line in northeast Guizhou to prevent the Central Red Army from crossing the Yangtze River to join the Red Army in western Hunan.

In terms of military strength, except for Hunan, the troops that arranged a strategic blockade line on the Sichuan-Guizhou border and Xue Yue directly controlled the mobile reserve troops in Guizhou, with about ten divisions. The troops directly participated in the pursuit of the Red Army in northern Guizhou were about 150,000. In addition to Wang Jialie's two elite divisions, there were also Long Yun's Dian Army and Liu Xiang's Sichuan Army.

These groups of people are strong and powerful, waiting for their labor, and their strength is five times that of the Red Army. Unfortunately, each unit actually has its own plans and is unwilling to work hard for the Central Army. Because of the precedent of the 19th Route Army, everyone has a passive and slackening attitude towards encirclement and suppressing the Red Army.

In terms of terrain, Guizhou, Yunnan, Sichuan border, Wujiang River in the south, Yangtze River in the north, Hengjiang River in the west, Jinsha River in the west, and there are many barriers, which is more dangerous than Xiangjiang River.

In Tucheng, the Sichuan Army first occupied favorable terrain and trapped part of the Red Third Army in a pass. Zhu Daizhen, the commander of the Red Army, was even forced to order a breakout, and under the cover of a platoon, rushed out of Tucheng to death.

Xue Yue spent the Spring Festival this year in Guiyang, and Zhou Hunyuan sent Xue Yue a "unexpected" gift. They captured Tian Feng, the political commissar of the 14th Regiment of the Fifth Division of the Chi Third Army, during the battle. After Tian Feng rebelled, he wrote down an explanation of the Chi Army.

He was worried about the erratic recklessness of the Red Army, and when he got this material, he felt like he was treasured. Because he learned from it the situation of the Zunyi Conference: "The local faction of the Jinggangshan faction and the Soviet-Russian airborne faction were very strong at the Zunyi Conference. The local faction of the Jinggangshan faction only talked about taking the initiative and working hard and resolutely resisting the ** party army. The Soviet-Russian airborne faction talked about theory and avoiding the important points. As a result of the struggle, Ma Ziren won the Jinggangshan faction, but internal discord, and the morale of the army was unstable."

While Xue Yue quickly ordered Zhou Hunyuan to escort Tian Feng, a traitor from the Red Army, to Guiyang, to meet him personally and learn about the details of the Red Army. While immediately, Tian Feng's materials were quickly reported to Jiang Ruiyuan and sent them to the commanders of various troops so that they could know themselves and their enemies.

Jiang Ruiyuan knew from the information sent by Xue Yue that there was a Zunyi Conference, and from then on, Ma Ziren was fully in charge of the Red Army's operations, which attracted his attention.

Jiang Ruiyuan's strategic intention was to oppress the Red Army to the south of the Yangtze River, east of the Hengjiang River, north of the Wujiang River and west of the Wujiang River to annihilate it, so he immediately adjusted his strategic deployment.

He Jian was appointed as the commander-in-chief of the First Route Army, Liu Jianxu was appointed as the commander-in-chief of the front enemy, responsible for dealing with He Long and Xiao Ke's Chi Er and Sixth Corps. Long Yun was appointed as the commander-in-chief of the Second Route Army, and Xue Yue was appointed as the commander-in-chief of the Second Route Army, responsible for dealing with the Central Red Army. Zhu Shaoliang was appointed as the commander-in-chief of the Third Route Army, and Yang Hucheng was appointed as the commander-in-chief of the Front Enemy, responsible for dealing with Xu Xiangqian's Fourth Front Army and Xu Haidong's Chi 25th Army.

Originally, the abacus was very loud, but in fact, it failed to successfully wipe out the Red Army. Instead, it just drove these bandits to the wild mountains and ridges in the northwest. Just like the Ming Dynasty hundreds of years ago, it was impossible to destroy Li Zicheng's bandits like weeds.
