Section 2 Set sail (5)
"Haha, the General of the Cultural Revolution was too anxious." Xiang Chuanyi, deputy commander of the 24th Army, laughed and broke the deadlock. Xiang Chuanyi had a beard that was very popular in the Beiyang period. When he smiled, his beards shook and shook.
Zhuang Jihua seemed to wake up. He smiled embarrassedly and said a little embarrassedly: "I'm sorry, sorry, I'm too anxious." He paused and defended Liu Wenhui: "It's not that I'm too anxious, but I can't do it. Experts from Peking, Shanghai and Nanjing are professionally first-class, but developing Sichuan resources is a systematic project. Professional knowledge alone is not enough. People familiar with the local situation must coordinate all aspects. Mr. Ren is the best candidate in this regard."
System engineering is a very novel term. People here have never heard of it. Liu Wenhui asked with a smile: "The Cultural Revolution is really worthy of being a person who has seen the world. There are sets of new terms. What does this system engineering mean?"
"Oh, how do you say it?" Zhuang Jihua said after a brief thought: "Taking Sichuan as an example, it requires exploration resources, transportation, refining, etc. Each link involves many issues, such as transportation, road traffic, and building roads, involves exploration routes and recruiting residents. Once recruiting residents, they have to have relationships with local people, so all these things are combined into a system, which foreign academic circles call this a system engineering."
Zhuang Jihua picked up the wine glass and drank it all, then put it down and continued: "The development of Sichuan resources is very complicated. There are many ethnic groups in Xikang, such as Tibetan, Yi, Miao, and various ethnic customs and religious beliefs. If there is no one who knows them, at least Xikang's development will be very unsuccessful."
Liu Wenhui understood now, and nodded and said, "Thinking about the Cultural Revolution is the most troublesome thing about Xikang is these ethnic minorities. They have conflicts with us. They often have enemies within themselves, so be very careful when they go to their territory."
Zhuang Jihua couldn't help but feel nervous, and Liu Wenhui immediately smiled and said, "But Cultural Revolution, don't worry, I'll say hello to the lower level. The exploration team is going to enter the Tibet, Yi, and Miao areas, I'll send someone to contact us."
"Thank you so much for Chairman Liu." Zhuang Jihua said gratefully, then picked up the wine glass: "Toast Chairman Liu a glass."
"You're welcome, you're welcome, it's just a little effort." After putting down the wine glass, Liu Wenhui waved his hand disregardly: "However, Mr. Ren cannot go to your place for the time being. I still need him to help me stabilize the Kangzang border."
Zhuang Jihua looked at Liu Wenhui unexpectedly. Liu Wenhui sighed and said, "That **lama really knows how to make trouble. Mr. Ren's father-in-law is the chieftain in Xikang area and is the best candidate to coordinate this matter. Test the text watermark 6."
"That matter has not been resolved yet?" ** Lama has provoked trouble at the Kangzang border, and this matter has been going on for two years.
"Yes, I have to divide all Tibetan areas into **, and the British have also started to intervene." Liu Wenhui sighed. If all Tibetan areas are included in **, there will be no more places left in Xikang.
"It seems that I can only sigh." Zhuang Jihua smiled mockingly, and then said to Ren Naiqiang: "Mr. Ren, the gate of the resource committee is open for you at any time. As soon as the Xikang matter is over, please consider us here."
"General Zhuang is very grateful. I will definitely consider it after the Xikang incident is over." Ren Naiqiang said movedly that the purpose of visiting Xikang was to develop Xikang. Now Zhuang Jihua is coming to develop Xikang. Of course, it is in line with his wishes. What makes him even more grateful is that Zhuang Jihua values him so much.
"By the way. I have something to ask for advice," Zhuang Jihua turned to Liu Wenhui and said: "I heard that the Sichuan government has explored the Chengdu-Chongqing Railway routes over the past decade, and I don't know if this information is still there."
"I don't know what, why do you plan to build this road?" Liu Wenhui looked at him in surprise.
"Yes," Zhuang Jihua nodded: "To be honest, the traffic in Sichuan is really bad. Let's talk about the Chengdu-Chongqing Highway, which seems to be open to traffic, but look at the road, which is bumpy, with a road of more than 300 kilometers, I walked for three days. I passed hundreds of tax cards along the way. God, I want to transport a truck of goods from Chengdu to Chongqing. Not only has the time delayed, but the tax paid exceeds the total value of the goods, so I just want to have a railway. The train will not stop and pay taxes to you, but it will be fast, and it will arrive overnight."
"General Zhuang," before Liu Wenhui and the others could speak, Ren Naiqiang spoke first: "I must give you a cup," he said excitedly: "We Sichuan people have been waiting for this road for decades. In the past, Qing Dynasty has hoped to this day, if you can really repair this road, the Sichuan people will definitely erect a monument for you."
"Cultural Revolution, how do you plan to build this road?" Leng Yindong asked puzzledly.
"I haven't figured out how to repair it," Zhuang Jihua said calmly, "However, this road must be repaired," Zhuang Jihua looked up at them, and saw a sudden appearance on their faces. He understood. They thought they were just talking casually, and then smiled: "Building a large number of railway tracks requires a lot of railway tracks, but Sichuan does not have a steel mill, so there is a problem, whether to build a steel mill first or buy rails from outside, a major problem, and there are also locomotives, locomotive repair shops, drivers, mechanics, etc. These are issues that must be considered. Railway experts can tell me the railway lines and how to build a railway, and steel experts can tell me how to build a steel mill, but I rely on me to evaluate the steel mills between the steel mills and the railways."
"So that's how it is." Liu Wenhui suddenly realized: "Is this also a system project?"
"Yes, what Chairman Liu said is," Zhuang Jihua said in admiration: "In fact, building a railway is not just as simple as a road. It also requires considering the economic value of other places. One road can drive the economic development of local areas along the line. Therefore, how to build and which line to take should be considered in all aspects, and strive to obtain the maximum value with the minimum investment." I was convinced, I was convinced," Liu Wenhui laughed and said: "Cultural Revolution, it seems that you are not only good at leading troops to fight, but also superior in construction. Don't worry, as long as you build the road, I support it unconditionally. Sichuan people have been waiting for this road for too long."
"Chairman Liu is right," Zeng Kuoqing didn't interrupt, but just whispered to Liu Wenhui's chief of staff Peng Can. At this time, he spoke: "The Cultural Revolution was famous for having many ideas and many solutions in the school. Before entering Sichuan, he was muttering about building a railway. In addition to the Chengdu-Chongqing Railway, he also wanted to build the Kunqu Railway, and also the railway to Xi'an, Wuhan and Guizhou. God, I felt very upset when I heard it."
"Haha, that's great. If so many roads need to be repaired, the Shu Road will not be difficult." Xiang Chuanyi said with a smile.
Zhuang Jihua shook his head and smiled: "Brother Chao always likes to joke. How much does it cost to build so many roads? Does the government have so much money? No, let alone repair it all, even if it is one, the principal has to criticize me like a pig's head."
Everyone burst into laughter. They didn't take Zeng Kuoqing's words seriously. Before this road was settled, those roads were even more impossible.
"Well. But I remembered that the original information should be placed in the Civil Affairs Hall, and Tian Songyao is the director." Liu Wenhui said seriously with a restrained smile.
Zhuang Jihua nodded in understanding: "Okay, I'll go find him tomorrow. But you can help you find it too."
After a meal, Liu Wenhui bid farewell to Zhuang Jihua and Zeng Kuoqing and returned to the office, he wrapped his arms around him and held his chin in his hand, pondered in the room. At this moment, only Xiang Chuanyi, Leng Yindong, and Peng Can remain in the room.
"Captain, I think Zhuang Jihua came to Sichuan to develop Sichuan." Peng Can said.
"What do you think?" Liu Wenhui looked up at Xiang Chuanyi and Leng Yindong.
"I think it's almost the same. You can understand his attitude towards Ren Naiqiang. If he didn't really come to develop, he would never have performed that way." Leng Yindong said.
"I also see this way. It doesn't look like pretending. Moreover, the report sent back from Chongqing said that most of the people who came with him were students and experts. Although some soldiers were some, some of them set out with the exploration team and some of them set out with the surveying team. This attitude did not seem to be plotting against Sichuan at all." Xiang Chuanyi also said.
Liu Wenhui used his fingers to combed the beard on his lips, and after pondering for a moment, he said: "You can't make such a judgment. This is the Cultural Revolution, both civil and military, but there is another possibility. Chiang Kai-shek asked him to contact my nephew, Deng Houzi, and Tian Donggua, so we still cannot take it lightly. We must closely monitor his actions in Chengdu, and pay special attention to Deng Houzi and Tian Donggua's reactions."
Zeng Kuoqing and Zhuang Jihua returned to the provincial party committee. As soon as they entered the office, Zeng Kuoqing asked: "What did you think about the Cultural Revolution? Can you give me a clear idea?"
Zhuang Jihua took off his coat and said, "Brother Expand, don't worry. I'm still in the fire reconnaissance stage. I don't have a complete plan yet, I only have a vague idea."
"Don't let me guess the riddle, otherwise I don't know how to cooperate with you. Just like today, I don't know what to do with Liu Wenhui." Zeng Kuoqing was a little anxious.
Zhuang Jihua stopped his actions. He thought about Zeng Kuoqing's words, but it was not unreasonable. He should tell him his thoughts. After he left a few days, he would be responsible for the work in Chengdu.
Zhuang Jihua turned around and closed the door, and then said to Zeng Kuoqing: "I don't have a detailed plan yet, I only have a vague idea." Zhuang Jihua walked to Zeng Kuoqing and whispered: "My idea is to let Liu Xiang lose first and then win, and let Liu Xiang hand over Chongqing to me by himself."
Zeng Kuoqing thought for a while and said, "Cultural Revolution, I want to remind you that these warlords in Sichuan are different from those during our Northern Expedition. They usually do not kill them all. Once they are defeated, they will announce their termination, or ask someone to make peace, and it will be over. This is the case in the previous wars. Liu Xiang wants to do this..."
"I'm not worried about this," Zhuang Jihua shook his head and said, "Liu Wenhui is determined to unify Sichuan this time. Look at the tone of his speech, but I'm worried that he can't win. He has too many enemies and Liu Xiang is extremely cunning. He is at a disadvantage in terms of strength. Therefore, to deal with Liu Wenhui, we must contact other forces. Deng Xihou and Tian Songyao must contact; what we want to solve is to let Deng Xihou and Tian Songyao participate in the battle when we need it, let them follow us to command the baton. In addition, we have to control some of Liu Wenhui's internal forces. Simply put, it is to buy his local generals, let them play a role at critical moments, and create conditions for Liu Xiang's victory."
