Through contact with Gao Jiu, Liu Zhanying admired Gao Jiu very much and regarded him as a good friend. He sincerely hoped to help Gao Jiu.

He said sincerely: "Mr. Gao, I will definitely respond to your superiors for your request. But I am a little confused. How should I tell you?"

Gao Jiu thought about it and said, "This matter is very simple, I think you will say that..." After all, Liu Zhanying is in the key department of the army and is quite familiar with the situation of Shangfeng. He thought Gao Jiu made a point, so he drafted a telegram and sent it to Shangfeng.

He said in the telegram: "I have no objection to withdraw all the expeditionary forces from China and firmly obey the orders of the upspring."

However, as originally agreed, two divisions of troops were left to help Mr. Gao handle the affairs of the South District of the Golden Triangle, but now he left like this. Mr. Gao was a little dissatisfied and believed that we were suspected of destroying the bridge across the river.

In order to rescue the Yuanzheng Army, Mr. Gao personally ventured into the Wild Man Mountain, saving the lives of countless Yuanzheng soldiers and providing a large amount of material supplies to the Yuanzheng Army. If all Yuanzheng Army were withdrawn in this way, it seemed a bit unreasonable.

Around the Golden Triangle, anti-Japanese armed forces from various countries are active. They hope that the far-reaching army can stay in this area to fight against Japan. The British Governor to Myanmar has clearly put forward such a request.

The withdrawal of all Chinese troops from China seems to have some hindered the reputation of the troops and had some adverse political impacts.

Therefore, I suggest leaving behind the 38th Division and the 30th Division, and continue to be stationed on the Thailand-Myanmar border in the name of the Yuanzheng Army. This proves that the Yuanzheng Army is still active in Southeast Asia, which is of great significance in political propaganda. At the same time, it also eliminates Mr. Gao's dissatisfaction with the evacuation of the Yuanzheng Army.

The above are just suggestions from humble officials. Whether to adopt them depends entirely on the decision to top the top.

Liu Zhanying, the temporary commander of the Yuanzheng Army.

In this telegram, Liu Zhanying focused on expounding foreigners' requirements for the long-distance army to stay in Southeast Asia.

The government is very concerned about the attitude of foreigners, especially the attitude of a powerful country like Ying, which also cares about its own political influence. Shangfeng believes that Liu Zhanying’s statement makes sense.

Of course, Liu Zhanying also expressed Gao Jiu's attitude. Gao Jiu made countless significant contributions to the government, and the government would also give Gao Jiu a face. So they decided to seriously discuss Liu Zhanying's opinions.

Shortly after Liu Zhanying's telegram was sent, the British Governor-General in Myanmar also sent a telegram. They asked the Yuanzheng Army to leave a part of it and cooperate with the British army in fighting in Myanmar. At the same time, Gao Jiu also sent a telegram saying that the supply of materials in the northern part of the Golden Triangle is now difficult, and from now on, he will no longer bear the material supply and medical services of the Yuanzheng Army. If the Yuanzheng Army evacuated, he will no longer provide help.

The telegram sent by the British Governor to Myanmar was instructed by Gao Jiu. He used the British to put pressure on the government. Gao Jiu's telegram sent by himself to the government was a naked threat. Because he understood that when dealing with the government, he could not just be a good person, but must seek unity in the struggle. Recently, the government has taken advantage of him and has taken too much. Gao Jiu must give them some color to see so that they can pay attention to Gao Jiu's opinions. The pressure from the British and Gao Jiu prompted the government to make up their minds.

They agreed with Liu Zhanying's opinion and decided to leave the 38th Division and the 30th Division on the Thai-Myanmar border and continue to operate in the name of the far-reaching army.

They sent a telegram to Liu Zhanying, asking Liu Zhanying to negotiate with Gao Jiu on matters related to the two divisions' troops stationed on the Thai-Myanmar border.

After discussing with Gao Jiu, Liu Zhanying sent a telegram to Shangfeng, which said that the 38th Division and the 30th Division formed a new long-term army, with weapons and ammunition and military pay being responsible for the military, and other supplies being supplied by Gao Jiu.

In order to facilitate contact with the troops of these two divisions, Liu Zhanying bravely stayed in the Yuanzheng Army, responsible for communication and coordination with Gao Jiu.

After discussion, Shangfeng agreed to Liu Zhanying's opinion. They decided to form a new Yuanzheng Army with the 38th Division and the 30th Division, Liao Tong, commander of the 38th Division, as commander of the Expeditionary Force, Zhao Qingshan, commander of the 30th Division, as deputy commander of the Yuanzheng Army, Liu Zhanying was appointed chief of staff of the Yuanzheng Army, and Yuanzheng Army continued to stay in the Thailand-Myanmar border area.

In addition to accepting the leadership of the upper-level army, the Yuanzheng Army received guidance from Gao Jiu in local activities.

After the order was issued, Liao Tong, the commander of the 38th Division, and others were very happy. After all, the Yuanzheng Army had failed before. They did not want to return to the country just like this, and hoped to continue to stay in Southeast Asia to make achievements. The new Expeditionary Force was established and their official positions were also promoted, so they were even more satisfied with this.

The reason why Liu Zhanying was willing to stay in the Expeditionary Force was that although he was still a major general and his position was not promoted, he was just a small staff officer with no power in the General Staff Headquarters, but now he has become the Chief of Staff of the Yuanzheng Army with authority. He believes that with the help of Gao Jiu, the Yuanzheng Army will definitely make achievements. If he stays in the Expeditionary Force, he will have a brilliant resume, which will be of great benefit to his future promotion.

Gao Jiu was also very satisfied. The stay of the two divisions of the Yuanzheng Army was of great benefit to the Golden Triangle region.

Gao Jiu was in a good mood, and his enthusiasm for the evacuation of the Yuanzheng Army was even higher.

The evacuation of tens of thousands of far-reaching troops is not an easy task. They have a large number of wounded soldiers and a considerable amount of heavy equipment. It is difficult to travel through the Golden Triangle, especially the complex terrain in the southern part of the Golden Triangle, and return to the country.

Gao Jiu suggested that the Yuanzheng Army build a temporary airport in Chiang Mai City and organize troops to build a simple highway to the North District of the Golden Triangle to facilitate the evacuation of the main force of the Yuanzheng Army. This will benefit both sides, which not only facilitate the evacuation of the Yuanzheng Army, but also provide convenience for the future activities of the remaining 38th Division of the Yuanzheng Army and other troops. At the same time, it laid the foundation for Gao Jiu's next step in building a high-level highway.

In order to take care of the large number of wounded soldiers from the Yuanzheng Army, Gao Jiu mobilized a large number of medical staff to establish a temporary field hospital in Chiang Mai City.

Shangfeng was very satisfied with Gao Jiu's actions, and the two sides cooperated very well.

Gao Jiu was very enthusiastic and stayed in Chiang Mai City for more than a month, and finally helped the main force of the Yuanzheng Army retreat to the country.

It was already mid-January 1943. Gao Jiu left Guo Hengming to assist the Yuanzheng Army in sweeping various local armed forces in the southern part of the Golden Triangle, and left Liang Baoguo, the Minister of the Construction Department of the Golden Triangle Administrative Committee, to guide the Expeditionary Force's troops to carry out road construction. He and Wang Zhankui and others left Chiang Mai City and returned to Mawan Town, which is now called Mawan City.

After returning to Mawan City, Gao Jiu listened to the report of the Administrative Committee of the North District of the Golden Triangle, and visited the arsenal.

Now the arsenal in the North District of the Golden Triangle is the largest arsenal in the entire Southeast Asia region. It produces ordinary guns, cannons and bullets, and it is more than enough to supply the anti-Japanese armed forces in the entire Southeast Asia region. The surplus part can also be sold to the King of Yunnan and other forces who come to buy weapons and ammunition.

The arsenal also produces a large amount of advanced equipment, and even the US and British military have placed a lot of orders. During the time when Gao Jiu left, many of the arms companies in the US military industry delegation that had signed an agreement with Gao Jiu had already arrived in the Golden Triangle area and began to survey the site and handle relevant procedures.

In order to strengthen unified management, a liaison team was sent in the name of the Ministry of Military Industry of Mi. Gao Jiu felt a little troubled when he saw this liaison team, because the American Oceanian girl Mary was a member of this liaison team. It seemed that she would take root in the Golden Triangle region for a long time.

American female girls are very enthusiastic. When they see Gao Jiu, their beautiful blue eyes cast a scorching gaze at Gao Jiu. The enthusiasm and unrestrainedness of foreign girls really made Gao Jiu unable to stand it. Gao Jiu still felt that it would be better for girls to be gentle and quiet in his heart.

Now around Gao Jiu, there is a perseverance in Long Guobi. In addition to this American female girl, Gao Jiu feels that she can't resist it. Gao Jiu and the women in the past have reached this point because of their special and common experiences.

He has now started to feel a headache and doesn't want to involve more energy in this regard. He is now staying in the administrative committee and seeing Long Guobi and American Oceanian Mali every day, feeling a little annoyed. He is thinking about seeing if there is something he needs to leave here temporarily and go out to avoid getting entangled with them.

It's strange to say that in recent times, the Japanese devils have not come to ask for trouble, and the anti-Japanese troops have no major issues that Gao Jiu needs to help with, so Gao Jiu spends most of his time in the arsenal.

Long Guobi and Mary always find reasons to follow Gao Jiu. Gao Jiu was having a headache, and Jiang Xiaomei suddenly sent a telegram.

In the telegram, Jiang Xiaomei said that she no longer serves as the brigade commander of the Independent Brigade of the Southwest Shandong Military Sub-district, and her superiors appointed her as the Minister of the Military Industry Department of the Shandong Underground Party, and she would form an arsenal in Shandong.

It turned out that the Southwest Shandong Military Sub-district was one of the iron triangles founded by Gaojiu Institute, and the Japanese did not dare to cause trouble at all. Therefore, the independent brigade basically had no combat tasks, and Jiang Xiaomei had basically nothing to do. With the continuous advancement of the Anti-Japanese War, the troops of the underground party in Shandong expanded a lot. They urgently needed a large number of weapons and ammunition. So many troops could not meet their needs completely by seizing them. Therefore, they hoped to build their own arsenal.

When establishing an arsenal, the Shandong Underground Party had no foundation, so they thought of Gao Jiu and hoped that Gao Jiu could provide help. When contacting Gao Jiu, the best candidate was Jiang Xiaomei. So, after research and decision, after soliciting Jiang Xiaomei's opinions, the Shandong Underground Party appointed her as the Minister of the Military Industry Department of the Shandong Military Region.

Jiang Xiaomei was originally a brigade-level cadre, but now she has been promoted to a master-level cadre. Although there are many young cadres in the underground party, it is still very special for lesbians like Jiang Xiaomei to become master-level cadres.

Jiang Xiaomei knew that she would have close contact with Gao Jiu in the future, and she was overjoyed about this appointment. On the day she accepted the appointment, she immediately sent a telegram to Gao Jiu.

In recent times, Gao Jiu has been in contact with the government for a lot of contact. In comparison, he has less help to the underground party. Gao Jiu is very happy to help the underground party establish a military-industrial enterprise. Now it is a time when the underground party is in trouble, so he should try his best to find a way to lend a helping hand so as to pave the way for the future recognition of the underground party.

Gao Jiu immediately replied to Jiang Xiaomei, saying that he had no choice but to help the underground party establish an arsenal.

Jiang Xiaomei reported Gao Jiu's words to her superiors, and she was very happy. They believed that Gao Jiu was a true friend of the underground party. Over the years, Gao Jiu's help to the underground party is obvious to all. They said that they would always cherish this friendship with Gao Jiu.

Gao Jiu found an excuse to leave the administrative committee, and he decided to go to Shandong in person to meet Jiang Xiaomei and guide them to build an arsenal.

As the process of the Anti-Japanese War gradually came to an end, the conflict between the two sides gradually began to emerge. Gao Jiu helped the underground party to establish an arsenal, which was not convenient for public operation.

So he decided to go to Shandong secretly. Before leaving, Gao Jiu found an excuse to go to Chiang Mai City, where the 38th Division of the Guo Army was located. Then he secretly mobilized a group of military technical talents and some military equipment to airlift it to the temporary airport of Chiang Mai City, and then secretly flew to Kunming from there, and then to Shandong. When passing through Chongqing, Gao Jiu did not get off the plane, but just told the airport that they were going to Taohua Mountain to transport supplies, so they did not attract the attention of the Guogong government.

At present, the safest and most stable part of the Shandong Underground Party is the area controlled by the Southwest Shandong Military Sub-district. Therefore, the Shandong Underground Party decided to establish the arsenal in the area of ​​Zhiyuan County. There is another huge advantage in this area, that is, it can rely on the Nanyang area and the areas controlled by the Southwest Shandong Military Sub-district, and have a relatively good industrial foundation to facilitate the construction of the arsenal and the supply of various raw materials.

Gao Jiu first came to Nanyang. He disguised himself as a secret person and secretly met Wang Jindong and others. Because he wanted to build an arsenal in southwestern Shandong, it required strong support from Nanyang, so he had to communicate with the senior generals of the 41st Army in advance.

Wang Jindong and others were very happy to see Gao Jiu and entertained Gao Jiu in a small range. At the banquet, Gao Jiu explained his purpose. Commander Wang and Wang Jindong and others expressed their understanding and agreed to provide assistance to the arsenal built in the Southwest Shandong Military Sub-district, while keeping it confidential for him. Zhou Mingshan also attended the welcoming banquet. This matter was a major information for the Military Commission. Zhou Mingshan decided not to report it to the Military Commission headquarters to keep it confidential for Gao Jiu.

After working with senior generals of the 41st Army and Zhou Mingshan, Gao Jiu continued to fly to southwestern Shandong.
