This is an undeniable fact. The Kuomintang is now at its peak since its establishment, and there is no sign of decline. With the development of the Southwest and borrowing from the United States, the Kuomintang has established an industrial system that is enough to support the war, and no longer needs to import ammunition and drug resources from overseas.

Social reform and victory made the Kuomintang receive more support from the people, and the prestige of the central government became stronger and stronger. In terms of military strength, the United States provided dozens of divisions, plus the weapons and equipment produced by China, all the Central Army were reorganized and replaced, and some local troops affiliated to the Central Army were also reorganized and replaced. A total of more than three million troops were reorganized and replaced.

In addition to the army, the Kuomintang army also established a powerful air force. The Air Force Command has eight commands, Jiangnan, Jianghuai, Xi'an, Northeast China, North China, Myanmar and Strategic Air Force Command, equipped with a total of 1,600 aircraft of various types, which is not counting the 600 bombers and fighters of the Sino-US Joint Air Force.

Such a powerful military and industrial power was unprecedented in the Kuomintang, and this incident originated from the southwest development and all came from the person in front of him.

"One person will prosper the country, and the ancients will never deceive me." Xiong Shihui looked at Zhuang Jihua and sighed in his heart. No wonder when Chiang Kai-shek returned to China, he ignored the important tasks he had given.

But just such a person is going further and further away from the Chairman. If he can restrain himself a little, this combination of teachers and students will be the strongest combination within the Kuomintang.

Feng Gui looked at the two of them silently. In his opinion, Xiong Shihui actually got the wrong object. Zhuang Jihua is now in a position to retreat. Chiang Kai-shek did not want to deal with Zhuang Jihua because of political differences. There were many political differences with Chiang Kai-shek within the Kuomintang, and there were many similar views to Zhuang Jihua, such as Zhang Zhizhong, Shao Lizi, Zhang Chong; but Chiang Kai-shek had no idea to deal with them.

The real reason is that with the successful implementation of social reforms in recent years and the continuous victory on the battlefield, Zhuang Jihua's prestige among the party and the army has risen unprecedentedly. Let's not talk about it among the people, Chiang Kai-shek can tolerate it, but within the party and the army, especially the latter, this will shake Chiang Kai-shek's ruling foundation. This is the fundamental reason why Chiang Kai-shek decided to take Zhuang Jihua, and political differences are not unacceptable.

On Zhuang Jihua's side, there are more political ideas. Zhuang Jihua believes that after experiencing a long war, the country should be peaceful. Various domestic issues can be resolved through political consultation and firmly oppose the use of force. However, Chiang Kai-shek was unwilling to do so, especially for GCD. With the unprecedented rise in strength of the Kuomintang, Chiang Kai-shek's possibility of using force to solve domestic problems is getting bigger and bigger.

All this is destined to make a break. Both of them are strong-willed people and will not make concessions on fundamental issues.

"Is our situation good?" Zhuang Jihua asked back, and without waiting for Xiong Shihui to answer, he continued: "Mr. Xiong is wrong. From a military perspective, our army's combat effectiveness has improved rapidly, but it is not only military that determines the victory or defeat of the war. It is more political and economic.

In politics, the domestic people's demand for political reform is becoming increasingly strong. What about the internal party of our Kuomintang? It may be too much to say it in terms of splitting, but there are many factions. The Guangxi clan, Yan Xishan, the Ma family army in the northwest, Guangdong Guangdong army, etc. Even within our Central Army, it is divided into several factions, civil engineering, Teacher He, perhaps, I am also considered one faction; the military is divided, the party is divided. Things are not based on right or wrong, but only the faction. My faction is wrong, and other factions are wrong, and the right is wrong."

Zhuang Jihua spread his hands and made a helpless gesture: "Let's talk about the economy. After seven years of war of resistance, it is no exaggeration to describe it as a weak country and weak people. I once told the principal that the reason why our economy did not collapse was because the United States provided strong support. Our several fiscal crises were survived with the support of the United States. But once the war ended, will the United States still provide supplies and funds free of charge?"

"The Battle of North China produced millions of refugees, and the entire Tianjin was destroyed; millions of people in the rear were going to return to their hometowns, and tens of thousands of government agencies, schools, factories and enterprises were going to relocate. Where did this fund come from?

Material control is actually causing losses to the people. In order to support the War of Resistance, the people are always patient, but how long can this patience last? It's like a string, if the words are broken, the reaction will be extremely powerful.

Mr. Xiong, the War of Resistance Against Japan is about to be won, but many problems covered by the War of Resistance Against Japan will also emerge. Our Kuomintang looks very powerful, but once these contradictions explode in a concentrated manner, it can burn the entire building we have worked hard to build."

Xiong Shihui was speechless. He had to admit the facts that Zhuang Jihua said, which covered up many of the weaknesses of the Kuomintang under the premise of the War of Resistance. Once the war ended, these contradictions would gradually emerge.

"Cultural Revolution, what do you think will trigger these contradictions?" Xiong Shihui asked unwillingly.

"For example, civil war." Zhuang Jihua's answer was very simple and yes.

The three of them fell into silence again. Feng Gui drank tea very relaxedly, but in his heart he was trying to polish Xiong Shihui's purpose, whether he meant himself or Chiang Kai-shek's intention. If he could pull this person over, it would be ideal. If not, how should he move him down? Are the methods to prepare sufficient?

Xiong Shihui was immersed in the shock brought by Zhuang Jihua. He finally realized the fundamental differences between Chiang Kai-shek and Zhuang Jihua. Now no one doubts victory, and all political groups have also looked at where China should go after the war. Almost all groups have noticed where China should go, and it is up to the Kuomintang and the Communist Party to decide. Therefore, some political groups in Chongqing called on the two parties to negotiate as soon as possible, resolve the border government and military issues, and achieve domestic peace.

The two parties also conform to the will of the people and started a new round of negotiations in Chongqing. Chiang Kai-shek's conditions were very simple. GCD handed over the army and regime, the Kuomintang recognized GCD as a legal party, and MZD Zhou EN came to wait for GCD leaders to serve in the government.

This condition was naturally rejected by Zhou EN. Yan'an proposed to first establish a coalition government, gather representatives of people from all walks of life across the country, formulate a constitution that truly represents public opinion, and then implement general elections in accordance with the constitution. After the establishment of the new government, both parties of the State G handed over the army to the government to achieve nationalization of the military.

The two parties did not concessions and negotiations were interrupted several times; judging from the information obtained by the Military Control Commission, the GCD is stepping up preparations, and the Eighth Route Army New Fourth Army, which occupied northern Shanxi and most of Suiyuan Chahar area, is actively reorganizing and expanding its troops. The GCD has secretly sent a delegation to the Soviet Union.

"Cultural Revolution, what do you think about the Northeast?" Xiong Shihui decided to give up, no longer persuaded, and instead started his real purpose today. He learned in Qinhuangdao that Zhuang Jihua had signed dozens of letters of appointment and appointed dozens of county magistrates.

Zhuang Jihua nodded and thought for a little thought: "We agreed that Heilongjiang was divided into three provinces, Heilongjiang, Sanjiang, Binjiang Province, northern Jilin and northern Liaoning, and a part of Rehe, forming a new province and Xing'an Province; in this way, the original three northeastern provinces became six provinces;"

Speaking of this, Zhuang Jihua paused and showed a helpless expression: "But things are not going according to our ideas. Given the current situation, in order to avoid future conflicts, I think the areas controlled by GCD can be classified separately and Heihe Province can be established. In addition, the Jixi area can be established.

As for the provincial chairman, Heihe Province can make Yan'an nomination, and I would like to give a comment. The principal unifies military orders and government orders. Some local generals must arrange a way out for them to get their support. There are many local generals in the Northeast War Zone, such as Yang Sen, Wang Lingji, Sun Zhen, Pan Wenhua, and Gao Shuxun, Ma Fawu, Zhou Fucheng, alas, "

Zhuang Jihua scratched the back of his head in a little embarrassed manner and said distressedly: "God, there are so many places."

Xiong Shihui was a little stupid. According to this list, not only the provincial chairman, but also the major cities, he was afraid that he would have nothing to do with him, so he didn't have to take out the list in his pocket.

But if we want to oppose it, Xiong Shihui didn't know where to start. Removing the military power of local generals was Chiang Kai-shek's established policy. Yang Sen, Wang Lingji, Sun Zhen, Pan Wenhua and others wanted to remove the military power, but these people all had outstanding military achievements. Their ranks were all generals. Yang Sen, Sun Zhen had to pass several medals in the Blue Sky and White Sun. Even Yu Hanmou was given to the provincial chairman. They should give them to the provincial chairman at all.

"Do they have no specific ideas for the chairman team?" Xiong Shihui asked tentatively: "For example, the Military Senate."

Zhuang Jihua smiled bitterly: "I asked, what they said, these hundreds of thousands of Sichuan soldiers belong to them. After the war, they will take them back to Sichuan and then release their troops and return to the fields. They are not interested in the Military Senate at all."

Xiong Shihui knew with his toes that Chiang Kai-shek would never allow such a thing to happen. Sichuan is now the country's heavy industrial base. Letting hundreds of thousands of Sichuan troops return to Sichuan undoubtedly let the wolves guard beside a pile of compost meat.

"If this is the case, Yang Sen and Sun Zhen can be the provincial chairman." Xiong Shihui felt a vague headache and had to give in.

"Mr. Xiong, you don't know much about these Sichuan generals. If this is the case, it will be even more troublesome," Feng Gui put down his teacup and smiled: "The Sichuan army is dominated by Liu Xiang's 21st Army. After Liu Xiang's death, the original 21st Army was led by Tang Shizun Pan Wenhua and Wang Lingji. If you give Yang Sen to the Chairman of the Provincial Committee of Sun Zhen and Sun Zhen, then the 21st Army must be the 21st generals who cause trouble, and their troops have more than Sun Zhen and Yang Sen combined."

Xiong Shihui was stunned when he heard this. He had been in charge of Jiangxi for a long time and had very little time in Sichuan. However, he also knew that there were many factions in the Sichuan Army, but he did not expect that it would be so complicated.

"If this is the case, then give Pan Wenhua another provincial chairman?" Xiong Shihui was very unwilling to give up. He vaguely felt that he had fallen into a trap.

Zhuang Jihua sighed and rubbed the sun: "It's so troublesome, it's a headache. Mr. Xiong, you don't know that in addition to the Sichuan generals, Cai Tingkai and Xiao Zhenying, these people are all about to leave the army. How can they be installed?"

Xiong Shihui almost jumped up. Zhuang Jihua had a big appetite and wanted to swallow the entire Northeast. He took away most of the counties and now he had to swallow five provincial presidents in one bite. He, the director of the Northeast headquarters, became an empty scepter.!
