Chapter 93 first quarter

In the evening of autumn in 1945, Wuhua Mountain, the seat of the Yunnan Provincial Government, is located on the shore of Kunming Green Lake.The 61-year-old Chairman of the Yunnan Provincial Government and Director of the Yunnan Military Commission of the Republic of China Long Yun stood on the corridor outside his office, admiring the gorgeous and beautiful sunset over the Yunnan-Guizhou Shangyuan with full of heart. This Yi nationality who has ruled Yunnan for 18 years wears the uniform of the Second General of the Army of the Republic of China and a pair of oval glasses. He is mighty yet elegant.People would not have imagined that this "King of Yunnan" was in the exams for entering the Yunnan Army Lecture Hall in the early years. When the exam results were released, others looked at the rankings from the front to the back, but he and his cousin Lu Han looked from the back to the front. ——Because they estimated that their ranking would be discontinued.

The autumn of 1945 was a season for the Chinese to feel elated and enjoy the joy of the victors: since the "September 18th" Incident in 1931, the fifteen-year Sino-Japanese War finally ended with Japan's unconditional surrender.Long Yun was even more complacent: After the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, his Yunnan was the country's rear area and one of the main sources of troops, and he made great sacrifices and contributions to the Anti-Japanese War.As the "King of Yunnan", he dispatched strategic planning, served the overall situation, and concentrated Yunnan's human, material and financial resources to join the war of resistance, which can be said to have made great achievements.

Of course, the joy of victory also brought hidden worries: the Anti-Japanese War broke out, and many institutions across the country moved to the south of Caiyun. In particular, the central army stationed in large numbers, breaking the closed structure of Yunnan that had been basically self-contained for 34 years since 1912. , Chiang Kai-shek's central forces inserted into the Long Family Kingdom that he had run for eighteen years.In Yunnan after the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, seeing the various garrisons of the central government, a large number of secret agents operating secretly, and the democratic forces with frequent activities mainly composed of teachers and students of the Southwest Alliance, he felt that his feet were obviously not as monolithic as before.

Now that Chiang Kai-shek is out of the way, he must transfer his guns to Annei. In the mid-1930s, the Central Army pursued the "Western Expedition" Red Army all the way, thus controlling the western provinces; now, will Chiang Kai-shek, who has extended his tentacles to Yunnan through the resistance against Japan, tie himself up?Whether he can continue to be the boss of this land of 380,000 square kilometers and 12 million people of various ethnic groups is a question that Long Yun dare not take lightly. He was very right to be concerned.Although using democratic forces to counter Chiang Kai-shek's countermeasures, Chiang Kai-shek's actions were swift and fierce beyond his expectations: only two months and one day after the Japanese surrender ceremony, an unexpected military operation took place in Kunming, and his The era of "King of Yunnan" has come to an end.
