super god warlord

Cai Songpo and Long Yun often drank together, so he didn't feel any surprise about it.Seeing that Cai Songpo had arrived, Tang Jisheng and Long Yun warmly invited him to sit down, and then the three of them had a meal while chatting with each other.

After drinking a few glasses of wine, Long Yun suddenly said: "I have nothing to do today, I wonder if brother Cai is interested in chatting with the younger brother about the domestic situation?"

"Oh? Brother Longyun actually has such an elegant spirit, so Cai will naturally accompany him." Cai Songpo has always been very interested in the domestic situation, and when he heard that someone was willing to discuss with him, he was naturally quite cooperative.

Long Yun frowned slightly and said: "Now Hualan country is in chaos, and warlords from all over the country are constantly attacking each other. It can be said that there will be an end when you sing and I will appear on the stage. I don't know what Brother Cai thinks. , Is there a chance to unify the whole country and return the common people to a bright future."

Chapter 971 Gossiping During the Dinner

"This..." Cai Songpo was taken aback, he really wanted to say yes, but he was very clear about the power of the cochin system.Although the economic situation of the Cochin Department has been greatly improved with the comprehensive economic cooperation with the Western Special Zone in recent years, it is still not as good as other wealthy regions in China.

Cai Songpo would not be so stupid as to think that by virtue of his commanding skills, he could turn things around and let the Jiaozhi Army, which was at an absolute disadvantage in all aspects, defeat the powerful enemy and seize the national power in one fell swoop.After all, the war is fought over the economy and money. The rich side can make mistakes at will, because they have the opportunity to make up for their mistakes, but making mistakes by the disadvantaged side means that there is no redemption.Everyone makes mistakes, and he is no exception. With such an almost slim chance of winning, he has no chance of winning against the powerful forces of all parties in the country.

After thinking for a long time, Cai Songpo shook his head and said: "No, we have no chance of winning in the Cochin Department."

"The world will be divided for a long time, and it will be divided for a long time. Nowadays, people's minds are determined, and the voice for unification is louder and louder. I don't know which power in the country thinks that Brother Cai is enough to unify the whole country?" Long Yun asked.

Cai Songpo said: "Recently, Sun Wenhai has been aggressive, and with the support of the Red Alliance and the Communist Party, his power has greatly increased. He has the idea of ​​sending troops to the Northern Expedition to defeat the Zhili, but it is a pity that with a corner of eastern Guangdong, it is difficult to resist Zhilian warlords. Even if they can find allies from the north, it will be difficult to achieve full success. According to my calculations, Sun Wenhai’s Northern Expedition will not only fail to succeed, but will easily plunge the country into even more chaotic situations.”

Cai Songpo's analysis was clear and logical, and Tang Jisheng and Long Yun also nodded their heads repeatedly.After talking about Sun Wenhai's revolutionary army, Cai Songpo turned the topic to the north again: "The remnants of the Anhui faction are at most lingering. Although Zhang Zuolin, the Fengtian warlord of Fengtian, has the support of the Japanese, he can only be partial. Surrounded on both sides by the Western Special Zone, his military pressure is extremely high, even if he wants to fight against the Zhili warlords, it will be difficult to achieve his wish, let alone unify the whole country."

"As for the warlords of the Zhili lineage, it was hopeful that they would do something big. It's a pity that Cao Kun was so greedy for profit that he blatantly bribed the election. This kind of thing made the Zhili lineage notorious, and the momentum is not as good as before. If I guessed correctly, once the grandson Wen Hai launched the Northern Expedition, and I am afraid that other warlords will come to the wall and push everyone back." Cai Songpo's analysis of the direct lineage hit the nail on the head, listing out its weaknesses.

"Speaking of which, only the Guangxi Clan and the Western Special Zone are left. Why don't Brother Cai talk about the Guangxi Clan first?" Tang Jisheng said with a smile.

Cai Songpo laughed loudly when he heard the words: "Brother Tang, is it possible that he is planning to deceive me? The reason why I didn't mention the Guangxi faction is actually because I have already determined that the Guangxi faction has already belonged to the Western Special Zone."

"Oh? Brother Cai, how did you see it?" Tang Jisheng asked.

"A few days ago, the revolutionary army secretly gathered on the border of Western Guangdong Province, clearly planning to attack the Guangxi faction. At this time, the West Special Army suddenly dispatched troops from Huainan Island and entered Haiphong Port. The purpose is self-evident." Cai Songpo laughed: " This kind of deployment can be seen by anyone with a discerning eye, if it wasn't for the Guangxi faction reaching some agreement with the Western Special Zone, or it had secretly joined the Western Special Zone long ago."

Cai Songpo's words were extremely sharp, which greatly impressed the two people who knew in advance.If it is said that because they had learned advanced technical and tactical knowledge at the Zhongchuan Armed Forces Academy, the two were slightly stronger than Cai Songpo in terms of tactical application.So from a strategic point of view, they can't catch up even if they flatter their horses.According to Tang Jisheng privately, in order to surpass Cai Songpo in terms of strategic vision, there are only two people in the country who can do it, and that is Zhao Shouhong and Jiang Fangzhen.

"The only thing left seems to be the Western Special Zone." Tang Jisheng still asked with a smile.

Cai Songpo nodded: "The reason why I left the Western Special Zone to the end is because of my sense of the strength of the region and Zhao Shouhong himself. It's not because I have some friendship with Zhao Shouhong that I'm partial to him. This person is real No."

Speaking of this, Cai Songpo took a sip of wine and shook his head: "A person who can start to plan for his own future since he became an official. Every method seems useless but has deep meaning. Until now, he has given Hualan power, but I still have it." There are many places that cannot be seen through, and the strength of the Western Special Administrative Region is by no means a fluke."

"Back then, I dared to pull out my teeth in the world war, and almost completely abolished the powerful enemy from the north, the Raksha Empire. Later, I defeated the Wa Kingdom twice and three times, and then shined brilliantly on the battlefield of the Western Continent, which shocked all countries. This kind of courage The methods and means are definitely not something that ordinary people can do." Cai E's voice trembled slightly, and it was obvious that he was a little excited when he said this.

Long Yun gave Tang Jisheng a wink and said: "Brother Cai is right. It is really scary to think about the many backers in the Western Special Zone. Now they are vigorously promoting various products produced in the Special Zone abroad, and at the same time they use movies and animations to land in the New World. I still don't understand the meaning of it."

"You didn't ask the right person about this, because I don't quite understand." Cai Songpo laughed.

Tang Jisheng asked without losing the opportunity: "Brother Cai has always observed the sufferings of the people, and he also talked about the trend of the people's hearts. Why don't our Cochin Department transfer to the Western Special Zone to help Hualan unify?"

Cai Songpo waved his hand and said: "This matter is not acceptable. I asked Zhao Shouhong, but he was unwilling to intervene in the Hualan civil war. If he allows the civil war to continue and just concentrates on managing his own territory, when will the country be unified?"

"But does Brother Cai know why the Western Special Zone is unwilling to intervene in the civil war?" Tang Jisheng asked.

"I have heard a little bit. I heard from Zhao Shouhong that it is to prevent the great powers from intervening in Hualan's civil war. I hope it can be used as the magic needle in Hualan's crisis." Cai Songpo replied.

Tang Jisheng nodded and shook his head again: "Brother Cai's words are only partly correct. Do you know how much external pressure the Western Special Zone has endured over the years. Hualan Kingdom has achieved considerable results in foreign wars and diplomacy. Since the demise of Houjin, not only did they not cede land for compensation, but instead occupied a large amount of new land. At the same time, they expelled the powers of the Western Continent from the country, so that the entire country remained relatively complete and stable, and allowed those domestic warlords to fight civil wars. Worried about direct interference by foreign powers, why is this all?"

Cai Songpo never thought in this direction, but now that Tang Jisheng brought it up, he understood the key point after a little thought. "You mean that the Western Special Zone bears all the external pressure of the Hualan Kingdom, fighting wits and bravery with the powers of the Western Continent, so it is unable to escape and unify the country?"

Chapter 972

Tang Jisheng nodded and said, "You're right. Even though there has been a great war, the powers of the Western Continent are still much stronger than the Hualan Kingdom. Although the Western Special Zone is not struggling to support the outside world, it does not dare to act rashly. At least now it is barely possible. In the case of maintaining a balance of power, the Western Special Administrative Region dare not intervene in the domestic battlefield. Once the West Special Army is caught in a civil war, the great powers are likely to pounce on us again and give us a slap in the face."

"That's right. The country is still in a difficult time. Those warlords only want to fight for power and profit for themselves. They are really Hualan people." Cai Songpo also said a little excitedly.

"Actually, I've said so much because someone wants to see you today, and he's an acquaintance." Tang Jisheng said.

"Oh? An acquaintance, why don't you come out and meet me?" Cai Songpo raised his eyebrows and said, he heard that Tang Jisheng's words seemed to mean protecting the Western Special Zone, and he wanted to know what the other party's purpose was.Now that the other party said that an acquaintance wanted to see him, it was obviously showing this purpose, and Cai Songpo was naturally willing.

When the curtain of the inner hall was lifted, an unusually handsome middle-aged man dressed in Hanfu stepped in and saluted Cai Songpo, "Brother Songpo, you are safe here."

"Why is it you?" Cai Songpo cried out in surprise, "Zhao Shouhong."

The person who came was none other than the most prestigious No.1 in Hualan Kingdom and the most powerful head of the Western Special Zone, Zhao Shouhong, the leader.Seeing Cai Songpo's surprised look, Zhao Shouhong said with a smile: "Brother Songpo still looks good after a few years away, which makes me very happy. Please don't mind my rash visit this time."

"How did you get connected? Could it be that brother Tang has made up his mind to join the Western Special Zone?" Cai Songpo looked at Tang Jisheng and asked.

Tang Jisheng and Long Yun looked at each other with a smile, and Long Yun said, "Brother Cai, do you know the origins of Brother Tang and me?"

"You are natives of Cochin. You used to serve in the New Army of Zhongchuan. Later, Lord Xiliang, who came to Cochin, asked you to join the Cochin Lecture Hall." Cai Songpo said.

Tang Jisheng said with a smile: "Actually, the two of us are not serving in the new army, but have been studying in the Zhongchuan Armed Forces Academy. Commander Zhao is the principal who has been kind to us."

"What?" Cai Songpo finally cried out in surprise: "So, you have been undercover in the Cochin Department in the Western Special Zone?" He finally understood why the guards in the Tang Mansion are so tight today, and Zhao Shouhong's safety is here. So important, Tang Jisheng had to be cautious.

"Brother Cai said it was too serious. In fact, the two of them were sent here because I had a premonition that in the future, Brother Songpo would be in power. But Brother Songpo, who is the most powerful in battle, doesn't know the darkness in the officialdom. I'm afraid You will suffer in the future, so let the two of them come to help you." Zhao Shouhong smiled and said: "Over the years, they have tried their best to support you, and they have never done anything to harm your interests."

"In any case, the two of them joined the Cochin Department for a purpose, and they are always from the Western Special Zone." Cai Songpo's face was already a little angry, obviously he thought he was being played.

Zhao Shouhong suddenly said seriously: "Brother Songpo has been going smoothly in the past few years, but I know that without my arrangement, your fate would be much more difficult."

Cai Songpo sank, and Zhao Shouhong did take good care of him, and there were many deeds of willingness to take risks, which he will never forget.

Zhao Shouhong continued: "At the beginning, I fought against the Japanese army with the Cochin Army, and I would rather buy weapons for your subordinates out of my own pocket. Later, we were trapped in Beihua City for the sake of national righteousness. These Songpo brothers will not forget."

"Of course, I'm always grateful for that." Cai Songpo nodded.

Zhao Shouhong said again: "Brother Cai has been cured by my subordinates for many years, but it took several years. Do you know what disease you have?"

"This..." Cai Songpo always thought he had a sore throat, but it didn't look like it after Zhao Shouhong said so.

Zhao Shouhong sneered and said, "You should know the pros and cons of doctors in my special zone. Generally, it only takes ten days and a half months to cure a disease. The doctor I accompanied once treated Brother Songpo for more than half a year in Beihua City. Later, you have been taking my medicine for more than half a year. The medicine that was sent was cured after staying in the special zone hospital for half a year after the law protection war, do you think this disease is mild?"

"I don't understand medical principles, so I ask Shou Hong to enlighten me." Cai Songpo looked rather embarrassed.

Zhao Shouhong said: "Brother Cai coughed at the beginning, it might be just pharyngitis. But due to long-term treatment, the symptoms have gradually worsened, and later pharyngitis turned into tuberculosis. I noticed this when we first met. But I didn’t have any specific medicine at that time, so I couldn’t help it. When I got the specific medicine for tuberculosis and was about to treat you, I found that brother Songpo’s disease was already in the middle stage of laryngeal cancer, and there was almost no cure for it. "

"What?" Cai Songpo knew for the first time that his illness was terminally ill, and he felt a sudden shock in his heart.

"That's right, even with today's medicines, it is difficult to cure such a difficult disease. So I asked the doctor to prescribe medicine for you alone, slowly take care of your body, and at the same time inhibit the further development of the disease." Zhao Shouhong said: "After several years of medicine After recuperation, you finally met the requirements for treatment. After you went to the Western Special Zone, I stayed with you and completely cured your illness. If my subordinates didn't treat you carefully, I'm afraid Brother Songpo's bones would be cold early. "

Cai Songpo was moved when he heard this. This was a real life-saving grace. Zhao Shouhong did not expect to reciprocate his kindness. He didn't mention it until the two sides almost had a falling out. Obviously, he had the idea of ​​saving himself.

Seeing that Cai Songpo was silent, Zhao Shouhong continued: "I made arrangements in advance, let Tang Jisheng and Long Yun come to Jiaozhi, and spare no effort to support you as a leader. In fact, I respect your character and ability, and have nothing to do with undercover agents. Originally I also hope to coexist peacefully with Brother Songpo, at least until the domestic situation is clear. But in order to eliminate a war and prevent Sun Wenhai’s revolutionary army from suffering too much, I came here to communicate with you.”

"You mean that the Guangdong army has been mobilized frequently recently, and it seems to be dealing with the affairs of the Guangxi faction?" Cai Songpo was obviously not mediocre, he had already noticed Sun Wenhai's intentions.

Zhao Shouhong nodded: "Indeed."

Cai Songpo frowned slightly: "So, the Guangxi faction plans to invest in the Western Special Zone?" Although Cai Songpo didn't want to believe it, he knew that this was Zhao Shouhong's only answer.Once the Guangxi system was incorporated into the Western Special Zone, the Jiaozhi system would be surrounded by the Western Special Zone on three sides.Although the relationship between the two parties has always been good, they are not a family after all, so precautions are still needed.Zhao Shouhong was able to personally take risks and come to Kunming City to discuss with himself, obviously he did not want any misunderstandings.
