It’s simple to say, but it’s very complicated to do it.” Zhuang Jihua didn’t have the compliment of Li Anding… According to his own ideas, “First of all, we must have a clear ethnic policy, which happens to be the weakness of our party. For a long time, we have pursued the use of barbarians to control barbarians and even create disputes among ethnic groups to achieve the purpose of differentiation and disintegration. This has planted the seeds of distrust among ethnic minorities. In addition, local warlords have a lot of levies and taxes. Not only are we Han people disliked, but other ethnic groups are also disgusted. Therefore, to rebuild the trust of ethnic minorities in the government, you have not continued to use the rotating system. This is good, but it is not enough. A clear ethnic policy must be formulated.”

"This is not what I am good at, so you should do it." Li Anding said lightly: "You are better at theoretical things, so I'll do some practical work."

Zhuang Jihua smiled and knew in his heart that Li Anding didn't want to be involved in trouble. Once this policy was proposed, the central government would definitely respond. His current status was somewhat subtle and he had a criminal record. Chiang Kai-shek did not trust him at all and would probably take this opportunity to take him down. Western Yunnan is an important part of Zhuang Jihua's plan.

After returning from the power plant, Zhuang Jihua did not go to the special guesthouse but went to Li Anding's home. Li Anding was the family's relative, and his wife was a traditional Guangdong woman. Over the past ten years, they have raised three children. The oldest was eleven years old and the youngest was seven years old.

Li Anding's wife Fang Minyi was very happy about Zhuang Jihua's arrival and quickly asked the servant to go out to buy vegetables. She brought out two plates of pears herself. The snow-white pear petals were crystal clear, emitting a fragrance, which made people's appetite soar.

"Cultural Revolution, come and try it." Fang Minyi smiled and greeted her, picked up a piece with a toothpick and handed it to Zhuang Jihua. Zhuang Jihua was not humble and reached out to take it. Before she could enter her mouth, a faint fragrance came. After the mouth was in, the mouth was full of sweet fragrance, and it was a little cool.

Unfortunately, not bad; not bad." Zhuang Jihua was energetic for a while. This was the first time he had eaten this dessert. He had never tasted it in his previous life: "It's a pear, how did it be made?"

Zhuang Jihuabian said that he quickly picked up one piece and tasted it slowly. Fang Minyi smiled: "It's a pear, but the method is very complicated. You need to peel and core the pears, soak them in honey water, seal them, and soak them in the well for half a month to a month."

"It's so complicated, no wonder my brother and sister are really good at craftsmanship. The simple pears actually give such taste." Zhuang Jihua praised, and then sighed: "I can't make Yin Shu in my family. Well, embroidery paintings. You can try them too, it's really good."

As he said that, he handed the plate to Gong Xiuhua who had just come in, Li Anding stood up and held a chair for Gong Xiuhua: "There is no such thing in Guangdong. Liu Yinshu doesn't know it is Muchang. This is a specialty of Baoshan. Minyi learned it when she went to Baoshan. If you let her stay in Baoshan for two months, she also learned it."

Gong Xiuhua forced a smile and took out a telegram and handed it to Zhuang Jihua. Seeing that she looked wrong, Zhuang Jihua quickly took the telegram. After reading it, he immediately asked Li Anding: "Yu Yi, do you have a map of Anhui, Hubei here?"

Li Anding nodded quickly and shouted to the outside: "Yes, Adjutant Zhang.

One year, a young and capable officer appeared at the door: "Go to the Border Police Corps immediately and bring all the pictures from Hubei, Anhui and Henan, and move quickly."

The adjutant agreed and turned around and was about to leave, but Zhuang Jihua had already stood up: "Let's go now, brother and sister. I'm sorry."

Fang Minyi knew something was wrong, so she didn't try to keep her. She just asked: "Let's come back to have a meal later, no matter what. She always needs to eat."

"You and the children eat first, don't worry about us." Li Anding ordered impatiently, and Fang Minyi stopped speaking immediately. Zhuang Jihua smiled slightly in his heart. I'm afraid that among Huangpu classmates, only Li Anding is the absolute authority of the family, and his wife will obey any decision.

Zhuang Jihua was anxious. Fortunately, the Border Police Corps was not far from Li Anding's home. Li Anding barely came from the Southwest Development Team and retained the habit of working in the front yard of the Southwest Development Team in the back yard. However, it was difficult to find such a large yard in Baoshan, so he rented a small yard not far from the Special Office. The Border Police Corps was only one street from the Special Office, and Li Anding's home was between them.

After five minutes, he arrived at the corps. When Li Anding entered the door, he asked the commander Shi Guandi to take out the map. Shi Guandi was from the third phase of Huangpu, but was not from the Southwest Development Team, but Li Anding's fellow villager. During the Northern Expedition, he followed He Yingqin to attack Fujian with He Yingqin. Later, he joined the Inspirational Society organized by Li Anding. After being arrested, Li Anding fled to Hong Kong. Later, he was recruited by Li Anding to Panzhihua and then followed him to western Yunnan. He was Li Anding's confidant.

At this time, Li Anding saw the telegram brought by Gong Xiuhua. The telegram was sent by Fu Chang, the chief of staff of the 49th Army. It informed the current evolution of the war situation in Henan. The telegram was very long. But the conclusion was very bad. The war situation in Henan was a mess and was likely to collapse in all respects.

After the Japanese army discovered that the squadron had made adjustments, they immediately stopped resting and turned to the offensive. They seized the chaos in the squadron's adjustment. They broke through the Wohe defense line southwest of Tongxu. Twenty-three and four were together. They were not in the year and had to fight and retreat to Fugu. Li Zongren heard Chiang's urgent request for help from Lianduo, and Chiang Kai-shek ordered the Deng Xihou troops of the 22nd Army transferred to Taikang to counterattack and prevented the Japanese attack.

Deng Xihou had no choice but to send the main force of the group army to attack north, but he also kept his mind. He left the main force of the forty-five army in Taikang to ensure the safety of the troops behind.

The counterattack from the flanks posed a great threat to the Japanese army crossing the river of disaster. The Japanese army was forced to draw two divisions to deal with Di Xihou. The two sides launched fierce battles in the northwest of Taikang. Just as the 22nd Army gradually gained the upper hand, the Japanese reinforcements arrived. The Japanese army of the two divisions forced the Wohe River on the front line of Sesamewa; at the same time, the third division of the Japanese Second Army forced the Wohe River at Machang south of Taikang, which caused the entire defense line to collapse.

In order to ensure the retreat of the entire army, the fallen army fought bloody battles in Taikang and blocked the Japanese attack at a huge cost. Jiang Dingwen was in a panic and telegrammed Deng Xihou to stop the counterattack. Li Fu led his troops back to Taikang to drive the Japanese troops crossing the river back to the east bank. Deng Xihou received the telegram and cursed, refused to obey, and led his troops to retreat westward.

After the 22nd Army retreated westward, a huge vacuum of more than ten kilometers appeared on the Wohe defense line. Xiou Shouzao immediately seized this gap. Fifty thousand Japanese troops turned around through Taikang and headed southward to Xiangcheng, Zhoukou, attempting to annihilate the three armies on the Luyi line in one fell swoop.

The squadron, which had not been fully adjusted, was in chaos and retreated westward automatically. Only some of the troops of the Second Army, the Fifty-Sixth Army and the Thirty-Sixth Army arrived at the defense zone. Among them, the Second Army and the Fifty-Sixth Army were still entangled with the pursuit of Japanese troops. Sun Lianzhong and Du Xingming ordered the vanguard to cross the defense zone and continue to retreat westward.

The chaos that occurred in the fifth war zone shocked the Wuhan base camp. The base camp directly intervened in the command of the fifth war zone. On behalf of Chiang Kai-shek, Bai Chongxi ordered the 38th Division, which had just arrived in Anping, to immediately arrive at Laozhong to block the Japanese army from the south. At the same time, he ordered the southern part of Tianzhen, the 30th year of the Second Army, to quickly rush to Laozhong to reinforce.

Then he ordered the Fifty Army to retreat quickly and retreat to Xiangcheng. The Thirty Sixth Army must stick to the front line. In addition, the newly investigated 101 Army concubine went north to reinforce.

The adjustment was very timely, but the commander of the theater commander had lost control of the troops, and the armies in various groups were rewarded and could not reach the designated position on time. The rear guard was fighting fiercely with the Japanese army. Only Zhang Zizhong, the 33rd Army, called back and ordered the 38th Division to seize the old tomb and cover the entire theater of transfer.

At this time, in Henan, war burned from the ground to the sky. In order to resolve the ground crisis, the Air Force only left a few aircraft to protect Wuhan, and all the main aircraft groups headed north. They frequently attacked and bombed the Japanese army pursuing. The Japanese Air Force was not willing to be outdone, and a large number of Japanese planes flocked to it. The battlefields of both sides moved from Wuhan to Henan.

The army was crisscrossing on the ground: the 18th Division defended Laozhong to death, and the Japanese army continued to attack, and artillery fire destroyed the entire city. Chinese soldiers stood firm among the broken tiles and walls. Tian Zhennan led thirty years to rush to Laozhong. Further east, hundreds of thousands of troops hurriedly crossed the land of Henan and retreated westward, but behind them was the sound of artillery, and the troops with broken rears were blocking hard.

In addition to the chaos in the northern line, the situation on the southern line was also very bad. Nakajima Kangjian, who occupied Huainan, continued to advance westward. Nakajima attacked the 31st Army of Huoqiu with two divisions, and led the Fifth Division to smuggle the city of Donghu, conquering Songdian and cut off the connection between the 31st Army and Lu'an. At the same time, it caused a situation to encircle the 31st Army. The 31st Army was forced to abandon Huoqiu, and the northern wing of Lu'an, the gateway to Dabie Mountains, was exposed to the attack of the Japanese army. The theater command ordered the Seventh Army to return to rescue Gushi. In order to fill the void of Lu'an, Jiang Dingwen ordered the 102nd Army to go north to Lu'an, and the 47th Army and the 2nd Division were responsible for guarding Huoshan.

After reading the telegram, Li Anding sighed deeply. Although he had been away from the army for a long time, he also understood that the situation of the war was very unoptimistic. Then he asked Gong Xiuhua with some confusion: "What's going on with them? They are in a hurry to seek medical treatment. The Cultural Revolution is far away in Yunnan. How can they manage Henan?"

Gong Xiuhua explained softly: "This was an appointment when we left." Then he explained to Li Anding in detail the situation when Zhuang Jihua left the fifth war zone, and then looked at Zhuang Jihua and shook his head gently: "He is just not able to let go. But the situation in Henan is indeed very bad."

Zhuang Jihua was still staring at the Henan map and thinking hard, then turned to the Anhui map. Li Anding and Gong Xiuhua didn't speak, and they didn't know how to help.

Shi Guantao also stood aside cautiously. He had been away from the army for a long time and was OK in training the army. As for commanding and fighting, he was a little self-aware.

"The situation in Henan may be irreversible." The first sentence Zhuang Jihua said made Gong Xiuhua feel cold.

Last night, there were thunder outside the window. I was worried about the computer safety and it was not completed. I made up for it today.
