Chapter 14 Cold Reception

The method is very simple. The reopening of customs and the Shaki incident and the suspension of customs compensation are unwilling to make concessions on these issues, so the negotiations continue endlessly.

"So many?" Zhu Peide was surprised. The financial situation of the National Government has always been poor, and there are very few cases where he can afford two million at a time.

"This is still a lot. I guess in a few months, we will probably have tens of millions." Song Ziwen said with a smile: "The main reason is that the income of import and export companies is high. Moreover, due to the strike in Hong Kong, the re-export trade of the former Hong Kong was transferred to Guangzhou. As the transaction volume increased, the commercial tax increased accordingly. Now some of the United States and Japan have moved companies from Hong Kong to Guangzhou. If the strike continues, the trade volume will continue to grow, and the commercial tax will further increase."

"Oh, I didn't expect that the strike would have such benefits. How could it be?" Tan Yankai was surprised. He had never liked the workers' and peasants' movement. Every time the merchants at the strike station complained to him, and the tax revenue also decreased. I never heard that strike could make money.

"The strategy is against the enemy," Song Ziwen explained briefly, and then asked with a smile: "Who came up with this import and export company? It's enough to lose weight. Look, Minister Chen's face is so high that his eyes are about to reach the top of his head when he sees the British."

Wang Jingwei burst into laughter, Zhu Peide laughed, Chiang Kai-shek's serious face couldn't help but laugh, and everyone laughed in a lot.

Chen Youren smiled and said, "I didn't expect that in the beginning, this matter was not only economic benefits, but also political benefits. Now they are anxious. I am not in a hurry. Let's talk slowly, for seven or eight years, and when we have the strength, we won't talk."

Everyone burst into laughter again, and Wang Jingwei said with a smile: "Minister Chen, you didn't agree to be a gentleman at the beginning. I didn't expect that this is a strange move."

"Yes, yes, it's a strange trick. I'm Duke Xiang of Song fighting a dignified battle. I said Jieshi. You are such a powerful student. How can you lend me something to use."

"Lend it to you? Let's talk about it when he finishes the reorganization of the 2 Sichuan Army." Of course Chiang Kai-shek knew that the idea was made by Zhuang Jihua, but the others only knew that the idea was made by Zhuang Jihua. Xiong Kewu couldn't help but shake his head. Chiang Kai-shek was lucky. Why did his subordinates produce such a genius? He also knew that Zhuang Jihua's mind and demeanor were impressed. At least he knew that if he wanted to change him, he would never let the assassination go.

There was no financial problem, and Chiang Kai-shek naturally had a great confidence. The current National Government was different from the first Eastern Expedition. The guns of the Soviet aid sites had been shipped, and five million military expenses were also received. The morale of each department was high. But when he was about to draw up a combat plan, an accident occurred in the military academy.

In fact, this accident is not a big deal. The main reason is that Sun Yat-sen University in Moscow is too charming. It not only robs the students of the Whampoa Military Academy, but also makes the graduates and ungraded students also have the idea of ​​changing jobs.

Some were preparing to apply for the exam, and a considerable number of students turned to the CUHK. The revolutionary atmosphere in Guangzhou is very strong now, and the prestige of the Soviet Union in Guangzhou is unprecedentedly high. The young people looked at the West with devout eyes, all dreaming of going to Hongdu, a world-famous place to seek the true scriptures. As soon as the news of the admissions of Sun Yat-sen University in Moscow came out, the registration points at the Central Party Department were immediately overcrowded. The reputation accumulated by Huangpu's two bloody battles was easily destroyed. A large number of young people preparing to apply for the CUHK-4th class turned to the CUHK-4th class. What is even more surprising is that the CUHK-sen University has become the most fashionable thing among young people in Guangzhou.

Not only are there young people outside, but there are more than 300 Huangpu students who have signed up, a considerable number of them are graduates of the first and second phases, which makes Chiang Kai-shek very popular.

"Niangxipi, what are they going to do?" Chiang Kai-shek scolded in the political department. Director Zhou smiled bitterly. He didn't expect this situation to happen: "All have left, will the troops still want? The seventeen commanders cannot find them, and they are exposed. I will take the troops alone, Niangxipi," Chiang Kai-shek slapped heavily on the table: "No one is allowed to go, Niangxipi."

After a while of silence, Director Zhou persuaded: "It may not be good if no one is allowed to go. Anyway, the third-term students have not graduated. You can agree to them. The first-term and second-term areas are not allowed to go. Do you think so?"

"No, you don't know that there are so many cadres now that the troops are getting bigger and bigger in the future, and everyone is useful." Chiang Kai-shek's anger was still unrealized. He never expected that Moscow would disrupt the center of the military academy students. For the first time, he felt that ** was developing too fast.

After a long silence, Chiang Kai-shek's anger gradually faded. He looked at Director Zhou and understood his difficulties: "Enlai, in the third period... Forget it, just do as you said. Students in the third period can take the exam, but they are not allowed to go to the first and second periods. The Eastern Expedition is about to be immigrated. It is time to hire people, so how can you escape at the last minute?" He wanted to say that you can go to the party membership, but the words changed.

After Chiang Kai-shek finished speaking, he cursed and left in anger. Director Zhou was very depressed. It would be fine, and he had an explanation for both the superiors and the subordinates, both the internal and external. When he came to his senses, Director Zhou hurriedly chased him out and handed over the personnel plan of the new team to Chiang Kai-shek and asked him to approve it.

Chiang Kai-shek returned to the office and looked at the appointments planned by Director Zhou, and felt something was wrong. Ji Fang was all the members of the Jinfozhuang, so he went to the First Gate. Liu Yaochen and Yan Fengyi were also in the Third Gate. Chiang Kai-shek asked for a change, but then put it down and took out the list of Zhuang Jihua News Agency. He looked at the list of cadres of the First Gate and Third Gate. It was nothing strange. Most of them were members of the Kuomintang. So he wrote to modify the writing, and the leader of the Second Gate was changed to Liu Yaochen, and the leader of the Fourth Gate was changed to Jinfozhuang.

The army was reorganized by itself, and of course it was very fast. In less than a week, the numbers were completely changed. The party army was changed to the First Army of the National Revolutionary Army. Chiang Kai-shek was appointed as the commander, Wang Jingwei was appointed as the party representative, and Director Zhou was still the director of the political department; the Hunan Army of Jianguo was reorganized into the Second Army of the National Revolution, Tan Yankai was appointed as the commander of the army Lu Diping was appointed as the deputy commander, and Yue Sen was appointed as the chief of staff. The party representative was temporarily short of the party representative, and Li Fuchun, a man from **, served as the director of the political department (represented to the party representative in 26 years); Jian was reorganized into the third commander of the National Revolutionary Army, and Chief of Staff Huang

In fact, the party representative is Zhu Kejing, the member of the Communist Party of China; the First Army of the Guangdong Army was reorganized into the Fourth Army of the National Revolution, with Li Jishen, deputy commander Chen Keyu, and chief of staff Deng Yancun. The party representative is temporarily short of, Mai Chaoshu, director of the Political Department; the number of the Fifth Army was left to the Fujun Li Fulin's headquarters. The Fujun was originally composed of members of the Guangzhou Gang. The army was not strong in combat and the organization was even more scattered, but the closedness was very strong, and the reorganization progress was slow. At this point, most of the troops in Guangdong were reorganized, and the remaining ones were the Hunan Army of Cheng Qian's headquarters and Gu Zheng.

Army. Some of the troops under Xu Chongzhi's former subordinates, such as Zhang He Brigade and Yu Yingyang, were reorganized.

Then Chiang Kai-shek reorganized the First Army alone, mainly to replace officers and sequences, the former commander of the First Division of the Party Army, He Yingqin. The party representative was still Zhou Enlai and the director of the Political Department, and he was under two brigades: Qian Dajun, the commander of the First Brigade (the commander of the third regiment, and the commander of Qian Dajun, Liu Yaochen and Hu Zongnan), and Jiang Dingwen, the commander of the Second Brigade (the commander of the three regiments, Jiang Dingwen, Chen Jicheng, and Jinfozhuang); Wang Maogong, the commander of the Second Division, was under two brigades, the commander of the Third Brigade.

The commander Liu Zhi (in charge of the third regiment Zhu Tang, Sun Yuanliang, Hui Dongsheng), the commander of the 4th Brigade Gu Zhutong (in charge of the three regiments Gu Zhu Tong, Luo Weixiong, and Xiao Yisu (in charge of the original Sichuan Army)); the commander of the third division, Tan Shuqing, the commander of the Fifth Brigade Wei Lihuang (in charge of the third regiment Wei Lihuang, Tu Sizong, Zhan Shunhu (in charge of the Sichuan Army). The commander of the 6th Brigade Xu Tingyao (in charge of the Sichuan Army)), the commander of the 6th Brigade Xu Tingyao (in charge of the Sichuan Army)), the commander of the 6th Brigade is temporarily two regiments.

After the reorganization, the second phase of Huangpu students officially graduated. Most of them served as company-level cadres. First-phase graduates such as Guan Linzheng, Huang Wei, and Song Xilian who made contributions in the first Eastern Expedition were promoted to battalion-level cadres. Hu Zongnan and Sun Yuanliang were the first to be promoted to regiment commanders, Jiang Xianyun also served as party representatives of Liu Chen's regiment, and Chen served as company commander of the military guard battalion.

What makes Chiang Kai-shek trouble now is where Zhuang Jihua goes. Zhuang Jihua is the greatest in terms of credit. As for his talents..., do you still need to prove it? According to Chiang Kai-shek's original idea was to let Zhuang Jihua go to the third division to serve as brigade commander. He was not at ease with the combat effectiveness of the third division. Zhuang Jihua was good at training troops. Hu Zongnan and Song Xilian all absorbed his training mode and trained soldiers like wolves. Tan Shuqing was an old-style officer and didn't know much about new-style training. It would be difficult to rely on him.

But Wang Boling's words changed Chiang Kai-shek's mind. He didn't want Zhuang Jihua to lead the troops now. He asked him to lead the troops. This Eastern Expedition would definitely make contributions. At least Chiang Kai-shek believed that it would be difficult to fail because of the strong military force this time.

The fresh tree fell and the money scattered, and everyone else had a chance. Before Zhuang Jihua's appointment came, Jiang Xianyun and others were surprised, but they didn't know why. Jiang Xianyun was very nervous. I don't know if it was Chiang Kai-shek who saw his secret trick, but he couldn't ask, so he had to keep it in his heart.

The troops were getting fewer people, and in the end, only Zhuang Jihua, Yu Peidi and a few low-level officers watched the remaining thousands of eliminated soldiers, and these soldiers would form an engineering force. Zhuang Jihua also released the officers in the detention area. Now he no longer worried that they would disturb them. He set up a few tables of wine to treat them to dinner.

"I know you have resentment in your heart, I understand this. After all, I have been locking you up for so long, but you also know why I locked you up. Since that's the case, we will be even if we drink this bowl of wine."

After Zhuang Jihua said that, he raised his neck and drank the wine in the bowl in one sip. Yu Peidi had received the appointment and he would serve as the chief officer of the reorganized engineering force. If he had been transferred to the reorganization, he would definitely be unwilling to do so, but now he feels that this may be a good arrangement. Now that he sees Zhuang Jihua doing this, he feels that it is necessary to say a few words.

"You know what you have done, and the result is the best. The Cultural Revolution will no longer be investigated. He is because he is broad-minded and generous to others. I am not as good as him, at least I can't do this. Put your heart in it, who can do it?" Yu Peidi glanced at the audience with his eyes. When the officers who were still a little angry collided with him, they couldn't help but dodge.

Yu Peidi also drank the wine, then smashed the bowl on the ground, and said loudly: "I have drunk this bowl of wine, everything has passed. Whoever dares to cause trouble in the future will definitely not forgive him and kill him with my own hands."

An officer with a scar on his face walked out of the crowd, and he also held a bowl of wine: "Captain Zhuang, I thought I had lived to the end, but I didn't expect that I could still survive. I didn't have any gossip, I just said this kind of kindness will be repayed." After that, I drank the wine in the bowl, threw it away, and said with a fist: "Good." He turned around and left.

"Come back," Zhuang Jihua chuckled lightly, and the man turned around and looked at Zhuang Jihua. Zhuang Jihua slowly walked up to him and asked, "Where are you going? Go back to Sichuan?" The officer nodded.

"The mountains are high and the road is long, how can you go back?" Zhuang Jihua asked again.

"The people in the martial arts world have friends there." The officer replied straight. Yu Pei knew that this man was a subordinate of Tang Zimo. He was originally from the Pao Ge family and was very loyal. At the age of sixteen, he participated in the road protection movement under the leadership of his father and brother. His father was killed in the Second Revolution. He and his brother returned to Pao Ge. After the war to protect the country broke out, the two brothers joined Tang Zimo's troops with the intention of revenge. Since then, they have been fighting in Tang Zimo's troops. The war to fight against the thieves failed and his brother was killed. He followed the troops to Guangzhou.

Zhuang Jihua took out thirty oceans and stuffed them into his hand: "Hold it, this is not what I gave, it is the severance payment given by the National Government."

"I don't force myself to stay if I want to leave. The National Government stipulates that the severance fee is 30 yuan; but I hope you can stay and earn at least enough travel expenses before leaving. There will be no way back to Sichuan for 30 yuan." Zhuang Jihua turned around and said to the officers who were still considering it.

"If the officials in the National Government are like the chief of the Zhuang, I will definitely not leave." Someone said coldly.

"Hehe, I'm not a good person." Zhuang Jihua laughed and said, "There are many people in the National Government better than me. I am just an ordinary person, a small person who only wants to save his life in this troubled world."

This was a bit heavy, and everyone was silent. Although Zhuang Jihua repeatedly advised him, most of them still took the severance fee and left. Zhuang Jihua sighed in his heart. Most of these people were actually bloody men, and it would be a pity to leave like this.
