Section 1 Capture the Army (15)

The director did not answer. After arriving at the Whampoa Military Academy, Director Zhou observed Zhuang Ji until now, but he still didn't understand. He would say that he opposed **, but many of Zhuang Jihua's practices were the same as the party's propositions, such as the plan's in-depth worker and peasants, and if he agreed with **'s propositions, his words revealed distrust of the Soviet Union and certain policies of opposing the party.

"I think it's difficult. Zhuang Jihua has a deep understanding of ** theory, even deeper than the vast majority of our party members. Jiang Xianyun once had a good relationship with him. In private, Jiang Xianyun had tried to test it, but he refused. According to Jiang Xianyun's report, his reason was that he did not want to cross the party. But I don't think so. I think he refused because he did not agree with some of our party's policies, and these policies are likely to involve many fundamental strategies of our party."

"Is this what Jiang Xianyun said?" Chen Yannian asked in surprise.

"No, it's my judgment." Director Zhou said.

"Can you be more specific?" Chen Yannian asked after thinking about it.

"For example, he was very vigilant about the Soviet Union. He once said that China should be separated from the Third International as soon as possible; Marxism-Leninism should be combined with China's specific practices, and that taking the Soviet Union's path cannot succeed in China. Also, he believed that our party should strengthen its military work and would be better able to master the army. There are also two parties who should adopt non-party cooperation rather than intra-party cooperation. These propositions are inconsistent with the current policies of our party."

"So that's how it is, can't his thoughts change?" Chen Yannian understood.

"It is possible to change on other people, but it is probably difficult for Zhuang Jihua to do so. Because his worldview and methodology have taken shape. I don't have hope." Director Zhou said with great regret.

Chen Yannian thought for a moment and nodded. Ideological education is effective for people whose worldview is not formed, and the effect on people who are formed is extremely small. Since Zhuang Jihua has a set of theoretically, empty agitation will have no effect on him. Moreover, the general plan or method you propose does not match his theory, and he will not be approved by him. Doing such a person's ideological work is almost a gull to play the piano.

"The central government decided that our party would not participate in this National Government." Chen Yannian let go of this topic and began to talk about the main issues of finding Director Zhou today.

Director Zhou couldn't help but frown when he heard this and asked in confusion: "Why?"

"The central government believes that our foundation is too thin. We should not be in a hurry to join the government now, but should focus more on mobilizing workers and peasants." Chen Yannian said as he took out a document from the drawer and handed it to Director Zhou. Director Zhou took it and read it quickly. The document lists all things that have happened in various places since the past five years, pointing out that the movement has been out of the control of the party, and the party is now pushed forward by the people. The reason is that our party is too weak. Therefore, at this stage of work, we should still develop organizations, rather than rush to participate in the government...

"The central government only sees one side. Can't joining the government better develop the organization?" Director Zhou was a little confused about the central government's decision.

"I think so too, the old man is a little confused." Chen Yannian sighed. It's really funny that he doesn't join the government because he has little power.

"Peng Fentian told me that the people now have a strong orthodox concept, and it is very difficult for people who are not governments to carry out their work. We set up farmers' associations in various parts of Guangdong, saying that the people do not understand at all. They say that they are the base camp, the Kuomintang. People can understand immediately. What does this mean? It is not right, and the people recognize this." Chen Yannian was angry when he thought about it. The central government is far away in Shanghai, but the focus of the revolution has moved south to Guangzhou. This practice of leaving the center has caused many problems. He mentioned this issue when he reported to the above, but the central government refused to move to Guangzhou. It is really not what they thought.

"Comrade Yannian, we must implement the decision of the central government." Director Zhou reminded him.

"I know, I'm just angry and don't understand why we have to give in like this." Chen Yannian said angrily. Director Zhou didn't know what to say. After a while, he said again: "Come on, come here today because I have an idea. I think you people in the government should play a greater role."

"Of course it's good, but how to do it?" Director Zhou asked.

"You are now the political commissar of the First Division of the Party Army. You must make full use of this identity and organize more party officers and soldiers to participate in political activities. In the military, our party comrades should let go and support the workers' and peasants' movements, and at the same time try to expand the influence of our party in the army." Chen Yannian said.

"Okay, that's fine." Director Zhou agreed without thinking. Then he thought of the wooden stick that Zhuang Jihua said, and took the opportunity to propose: "Comrade Yannian, I think our party should also control an army."

"Tell me what you think." Chen Yannian hesitated and asked. At that time, Sun Yat-sen was unwilling to control the armed forces. The central government agreed not to control the armed forces. Chen Yannian also agreed to the central government's suggestions at first. However, Zhou Enlai had been inciting to form an armed force completely controlled by our party and officially reported to the central government, but the central government had never replied. Comrade Huang Mingcheng, who was newly transferred, also agreed to establish such a force. Under their influence, Chen Yannian's attitude was a little loosened.

Seeing Chen Yannian's attitude relaxed, Director Zhou said excitedly: "There are many members of our party among Huangpu students now, so

With grassroots officers, I heard that Comrade Ye Ting was about to return to China. He once served as the battalion commander of the guard battalion and he served as the commander. I think the Kuomintang would not object, so our party has an army completely controlled by our party."

"If it works, let's try it." Chen Yannian thought about it and felt that Director Zhou was right, and this matter was likely to be accomplished.

"After talking about so much about the National Government, when will this National Government be established?" Director Zhou asked Chen Yannian agreed, and looked a little excited, feeling that it would be fine if he didn't join the government.

"It should be soon. Last time I went to meet Consultant Bao, he revealed that the personnel problems have been solved. As long as the personnel problems are solved, everything else will be easier to deal with." Chen Yannian said.

"The chairman is Wang Jingwei," asked Director Zhou.

"It's probably so. Mr. Liao refused to be the only one." Chen Yannian said regretfully that only Wang Jingwei, Hu Hanmin and Liao Zhongkai were qualified to be the chairman. However, Liao Zhongkai and Hu Hanmin have many opponents. Those who opposed Liao Zhongkai were Wu Chaoshu and Sun Ke's group; those who opposed Hu Hanmin were Bo Luoting, Tan Pingshan and others. Therefore, in order to avoid the worst result, both sides may elect Wang Jingwei. In Wu Chaoshu, Sun Ke's view, Wang Jingwei followed Sun Yat-sen for a long time and was a veteran of the Kuomintang and could not follow him. In the eyes of Bo Luoding and others, Wang Jingwei is a leftist in the Kuomintang. Although he did not support the ** as well as Liao Zhongkai, he was a completely acceptable candidate. Therefore, Wang Jingwei's election was almost a decisive decision.

"Your commander may be promoted," Chen Yannian said with a smile.

"Where did you get promoted?" Director Zhou asked.

"The Military Commission is also the commander of the Guangzhou Garrison Command." Chen Yannian replied.

"Well, I think it's very good. Principal Jiang is a revolutionary leftist and should give him more important work." Director Zhou nodded and said yes.

"This plan will be left with me. In two days, I will go to Consultant Bao and show it to him." Chen Yannian pointed to the plan on the table and said.

"Okay. Let him say what he said."

Zhuang Jihua felt that his luck was not very good these days. The Sichuan generals went to the garrison headquarters one after another, and more importantly, they came alone. So he exchanged ideas with almost every general. Although these people tried their best to hide their true thoughts, he still discovered something.

In addition to Yu Peidi, Zhang Chong, Long Guang, and Yu Jitang all expressed more or less support for the adaptation, but at the same time implicitly expressed their hope that their environment would change after the adaptation. At the beginning, Zhuang Jihua was a little happy, although he was just a subtle statement out of caution, and he just heard the rumors that he had to wait for the decision to make a decision on whether there was such a matter. He was just a small lieutenant colonel in the garrison headquarters.

But after having more contact, Zhuang Jihua began to be alert. Within two days, everyone except Xiong Kewu had the opportunity to talk to him alone. All of these things happened after talking to Yu Peidi. This sentence was not accidental. Zhuang Jihua concluded that it must be the result of Yu Peidi's discussion with Xiong Kewu after returning. The purpose was not yet certain, but what these people said was definitely not the truth. Thinking of this, he complained that he was too anxious and said too much to Yu Peidi, which made them alert.

There was no choice but to report his mistake to Chiang Kai-shek.

"Now you know that there is something outside the sky. When the little fox meets the old fox, he is confused by the old fox." Chiang Kai-shek smiled. He was in a good mood recently. Xu Chongzhi and Liao Zhongkai told him that after the establishment of the National Government, he entered the Military Commission, ranking behind Wang Jingwei, Hu Hanmin, and Liao Zhongkai, and before Xu Chongzhi. Considering that the top three are actually literati, he is already ranked first among Guangdong's military generals.

"Principal, I'm sorry, I didn't do it well." Zhuang Jihua felt a little ashamed.

"It's nothing. You learn from your mistakes. You mainly underestimate the enemy. When these people are in the political and military circles, you are still studying in school. But it's nothing. The worst thing is that they rebel with flags and rebels. It's impossible for their little men to rebel. So, the worst thing is to leave Guangdong." Chiang Kai-shek comforted him lightly. Chiang Kai-shek's attitude towards the adaptation of the Sichuan Army was to eliminate hidden dangers, so as long as the hidden dangers are eliminated, it's okay to reorganize by force or peaceful, otherwise it's okay to expel by force.

Zhuang Jihua thought about what he said to them over the past few days, and he felt that these people had not obtained anything other than Yu Peidi. On the contrary, Zhang Chong and Long Guang were taken out by him.

"Principal, students think that it is better to adapt peacefully. The students' idea is that with the development of the revolution, more and more warlord troops will surrender in the future. If we can create an example of peaceful adaptation, or accumulate some experience for the peaceful adaptation of those warlord troops in the future, then we should try this time."

When Chiang Kai-shek heard Zhuang Jihua's words, he was a little moved. He did not expect that the reason why Zhuang Jihua insisted on peaceful adaptation was actually this.
