Wu Shaoting also transferred several teachers from the Whampoa Military Academy, including the Education Chief Liang Hongkai and the Coach Chief Cai Tingkai, and asked them to join the preparatory committee to be responsible for related matters. As for the Whampoa Military Academy, other instructors were arranged to be temporarily represented.

Tang Jiyao felt that this was profitable. Now he is the principal of the Yunnan Martial Arts Hall, and he understands how important the officers trained by a military academy are. These officers will be influenced by ideas in the military academy and create a loyal and loyal mental outlook, which will be very cheap for expanding their power and entering the military and political departments of the government in the future. Therefore, in the Preparatory Committee of the National Defense University, he also arranged many of his confidants to come in. Except for Luo Peijin, most of them are instructors in the Yunnan Martial Arts Hall.

In addition to utilizing the resources of the South, Wu Shaoting also hired more German-departed talents to Wuzhou to teach through the alliance signed with Germany, including Ludendolf, the founder of the future "total war" theory of the German army. At this time, Ludendolf had just been promoted to the brigade commander of the German army and was still in an unknown state in the German-departed world. Wu Shaoting named and asked Ludendolf, a talented student from the Berlin Military Academy, to come to China with the assistance of Sir Andre.

At first, Ludendolf did not petition. After repeated discussions, Wu Shaoting agreed to set up a strategic research laboratory for Ludendolf at the National Defense University. With the condition of ensuring 30,000 yuan of research funds for the Empire Mark every month, he finally invited this famous military expert in World War II.

The campus site of the National Defense University is located in Cangwu County near the riverside, and is scheduled to start construction on March 20. The construction budget of the entire school building is 300,000 yuan, and it is expected to be completed in two months. Part of this funding is the preparatory committee responsible for raising funds from the public, while the other part is planned to be in charge of the government's Ministry of Finance. Before the Ministry of Finance officially obtains income, it will still be evenly distributed on the accounts of military governments in various provinces in the south.

In addition to the construction of the main campus, there is also the plan for the Zhanjiang Campus, which is specially used to cultivate naval talents. In particular, the steps of naval education are relatively late, so the construction of the Zhanjiang Campus has not yet been determined.

The school building process is just the first step in preparation for the entire National Defense University, and the education model and system of the National Defense University still need a long time to discuss. Wu Shaoting's instructions to the preparatory committee were to extract the essence of the three major military academies of the Whampoa Military Academy, Yunnan Military Academy and Mawei Shipbuilding School, and combine it into the teaching of the National Defense University.

Wu Shaoting had high hopes for the Whampoa Military Academy, because the establishment of the Whampoa Military Academy closed all military academies in Guangdong and invested all faculty in the Whampoa Military Academy at one time. He had reason to believe in the strong strength of the Whampoa Military Academy.

On March 7, Sichuan ushered in a war again after a brief calm.

Tang Jiyao sent Gu Pinzhen to lead the forces of eight newly formed troops of a military regiment, and finally arrived in Ganzi across the borders of the two provinces. There were three regiments of the vanguard. Gu Pinzhen set up a military headquarters in Lijiang and also set up an office in Leshan. His strategic deployment was very clear, and he decided to deploy heavy troops in Ganzi, directly attack Chengdu from the west along the avenue, and also sent a regiment of troops to Leshan to meet with the Mixed Brigade and assist the Mixed Brigade to take Shuangliu County from the south.

It has to be said that Yu Enyang put in a lot of effort to attack Shuangliu County. Unfortunately, the 18th Division was heavily pressed here, and was equipped with more advanced cannons. He did not make any progress in the offensive for several days. He also hoped that the 14th Cavalry Regiment of Guangdong could join forces from Ziyang, at least share part of the offensive intensity. However, until Gu Pinzhen's army arrived in Ganzi, there was no news about the Cavalry Regiment. He sent a telegram to inquire and found out that the Cavalry Regiment had already set off on March 1, and the regiment headquarters followed the troops and disappeared, and no one knew where they were going!

In desperation, Yu Enyang had no choice but to stop thinking about reinforcements from the southwest, and only hoped that Gu Pinzhen could send troops to Chengdu as soon as possible and attack Chengdu together. In this way, all the achievements of winning Chengdu will be in the hands of the Yunnan Army.

However, on the morning of the 8th, two armies of Liu Xianyu and Wang Wenhua appeared in Zigong quietly. Together with Zigong local warlord Tian Songyao announced that he would attack Neijiang and go to Ziyang to meet with Daikan's third division, coveting the southwest direction of Chengdu. Tian Songyao has been hesitating and worried for a while. Sun Zhen has surrendered to the south, and the Central Third Division has been completely wiped out. He is located in Zigong, which is a key place where the north and south intersects. The situation forces him to make a decision as soon as possible.

Originally, Tian Songyao planned to continue to delay, and how long it could last, until the north and south were clear and then make plans. Unexpectedly, the Guizhou Army increased its troops to Sichuan with such a big fanfare, and occupied Zigong as a logistics base at once. He only had more than 1,200 people in his hand, and of course he had no room for resistance. He had to send a telegram to announce his support for the Southern Government.

The Guizhou Army's troops of about 8,000 people rushed to Zigong all at once, and then continued to mobilize north according to the number.

The emergence of this army has helped the momentum of the entire south to increase a great deal, and the situation in Sichuan has once again turned to the south.

However, it also brings more tense competitive relationships. The Yunnan army hopes to swallow Chengdu in one breath and control the overall situation of Chengdu with Yunnan. Now that the Guizhou army has stepped forward, it is a huge disaster.

As the situation in Chengdu became severe, Chongqing gradually shrouded a layer of dark clouds.

At the governor's residence located by the Yangtze River, Chen Huan was frowning every day, on the one hand, because the Central Third Division was wiped out, and on the other hand, because of the latest order issued by Beijing.

"I want He Zonglian and Wang Zhanyuan to come to Chongqing? This is not just a matter of asking them to help. It's simply a mess! One mountain cannot accommodate two tigers. Can one mountain accommodate three tigers? The president is really angry and anxious." Chen Huan said such things almost every day, but even if he talks, he can only talk about it and vent.

When the news of Gu Pinzhen, Liu Xianyu and Wang Wenhua's reinforcements reached the Chongqing Governor's Office, Chen Huan could no longer sit still. He personally ran to the division camp of the Third Central Division, and ordered him to immediately send troops to attack the headquarters of the 7th Division of Hejiang in front of Ma Longbiao.

"General Ma, look at what Chengdu is like now. To the north are Xiong Kewu's two divisions, to the east are Gu Pinzhen's army, to the south are one brigade of the Yunnan Army and three brigades of the Guizhou Army. What's even more terrifying is Ziyang, which is the new third division that has been eyeing it. Chengdu is about to be surrounded! Luzhou is only Luzhou. Once Luzhou is cut off, Chengdu will completely lose contact with our Chongqing. The situation is hopeless!" Chen Huan patted the table in front of Ma Longbiao, and Lei Liefeng shouted, his face extremely anxious.

Ma Longbiao is already a veteran in his seventies. His hair is sparse and pale, but his blue eyes look bright and energetic. He is a *** man, but he has not returned to his hometown for decades, and most of it is due to political reasons. But as a soldier, he has never been concerned about his children's love, and devotes himself to loyalty to his duties and serving the country.
