chapter thirteen troubles
Run, jump, roll, climb, bring courage to the highest level, make the body feel pain and concentrate the spirit. Zhuang Jihua vented his fears in the drill field. Since accepting the order, he has been trapped in the vicious circle that he has woven, which has changed history. His poor historical knowledge did not tell him that Sun Yat-sen organized two Northern Expeditions. The first Northern Expedition failed because of Chen Jiongming's rebellion, and the second Northern Expedition ended without success after returning to suppress the rebellion of the Shang regiment.
He always thought that it was because of his reason, so he made some deductions, which made him deeply frightened. If the Northern Expedition was successful, Chiang Kai-shek would definitely not come to power and become a dictator, and China's history would be completely out of track in the future. What consequences would this cause make him unable to predict. An inexplicable fear always enveloped him, and he vented desperately on the drill field, trying to squeeze out this fear.
Sun Yat-sen was very satisfied after watching the performance and personally met Zhuang Jihua and Song Xilian who performed outstandingly (Zhuang Jihua was not normal for this period, so Song Xiaodi was naturally with him). In front of Sun Yat-sen, Zhuang Jihua performed well, saluted neatly, answered questions with a loud voice and clear order. However, those who knew him, such as Jiang Xianyun and Song Xilian, knew that he had something in his heart, and it was a big event. Among them, only Jiang Xianyun guessed that it might be related to the Northern Expedition, but no matter how they asked Zhuang Jihua, they would not speak silently.
The Grand Marshal's temporary camp was selected in a manor outside Shaoguan City. The scale of the manor was not large. More than 100 people from the Huangpu Student Guards were stationed outside the manor and divided into four teams. Two teams entered the village to guard the camp. The other two teams guarded the camp from the front and back directions, and rotated daily.
Before going north, Zhuang Jihua and Jiang Xianyun were promoted to the deputy captain of the guards and also served as the team leader. Wen Susong himself was responsible for the vigilance in the village and asked them to be responsible for the vigilance in the surrounding area.
I have watched too many movies and dramas and know a lot about infiltration methods. During the day, I mainly checked people entering and leaving the manor, especially unfamiliar faces, so there are three night attacks on the manor, so there are many open and secret whistles inside and outside the manor. Especially at night, Zhuang Jihua believes that the best choice for the enemy is to sneak in late at night, so he often arranges the defense at night, and the location of the secret whistle is changed at any time.
The depression of mood made Zhuang Jihua's working method slightly rough. The students around him clearly felt this change. Zhuang Jihua, who used to speak humorously and philosophically, disappeared, and became a sarcastic and ruthless person. If he made a mistake, he would be severely scolded. It was entirely up to Jiang Xianyun or Song Xilian to persuade him, so that nothing happened.
Zhuang Jihua was bothered outside the village, while another man, Sun Yat-sen, was bothered inside the village. The original intention of publishing the "Letter to the Guangdong People" was to alleviate internal and external pressure and win the support of the people to support the Northern Expedition. However, this move not only failed to achieve this goal, but instead intensified the conflicts inside and outside the party. The ** man Cai Hesen publicly criticized him for giving up Guangdong as a regression, retreating to the bourgeoisie, and giving Guangdong to British imperialism. Even Borotin, who supported him, was strongly criticized by the ** Central Committee, and even reported this attitude to the Far East Bureau of the Communist International.
In addition, the party also opposed the Northern Expedition. In addition to Liao Zhongkai, even Chiang Kai-shek, who supported the suppression of the Shang regiment, opposed the Northern Expedition. The army used various excuses to either stay in Guangzhou or delay the attack. They had already agreed to send firearms and were detained, but the Shang regiment had too big a gap in the number of bullets (parts have been sent to various units of the Northern Expedition Army), and was planning a market strike. He couldn't figure out how he had been working all his life and devoted himself to the country, but why these people only saw their own interests and completely ignored the interests of the country and nation, and why no one understood his own efforts.
During dinner, he took a few bites and put down the bowl. His wife Soong Ching Ling gently advised him to eat more. He shook his head and gently added a bowl of soup to her. He looked at the woman gently. Since marrying herself, she has not had a peaceful life. With her family background, she can live a peaceful and noble life, but she stayed with her and lived a life of displaced life. Her only child was lost in Chen Jiongming's rebellion and became an eternal pain in the couple's heart.
Soong Ching Ling quickly put down the bowl and said gentlely to Sun Yat-sen: "Go out for a walk with me."
Sun Yat-sen nodded. He knew that this was actually Soong Ching-ling for him, and she was always so understanding.
Seeing that the Prime Minister was about to go out, Wen Susong quietly signaled the guards to follow. Then he went out first and ran to arrange the guards along the way, but he ran wrongly.
Sun Yat-sen and his wife did not go through the main entrance, but quietly came out from the back door. When they went out, they were a small glutinous yard. There were several piles of wheat hay stacks on the field. After checking in, they were moved away. The glutinous yard was paddy fields. However, the autumn harvest has passed and the fields are empty.
Walking along the path at will, the two seemed to be in high spirits and slowly approached the woods. The head guard immediately stepped forward to remind that this place was already an outer area of the warning area and could not move forward any further. Sun Yat-sen had to smile apologetically at Soong Ching-ling. Soong Ching-ling didn't mind at all. This kind of thing had happened many times, and she just wanted Sun Yat-sen to relax.
But Sun Yat-sen asked, "This is also a warning area for Huangpu students?"
"Yes, sir." The Chief Guard replied.
"Where are they? Let's go and have a look."
Sun Yat-sen meant to see these flesh, but the Chief Guard misunderstood. He thought Sun Yat-sen wanted to see the sentinels. The Chief Guard felt a little strange after leaving for a long time. He didn't see a sentinel for such a long distance. If the guards were slackened, they would probably not escape the responsibility of the guards. He couldn't help but complain in his heart that Captain Wen said that it was impossible to sneak in unless he attacked for a strong attack. Now, let alone sneak in, even if he walked in openly, no one knew that it was still some babies and he couldn't do anything.
He looked up and looked around but still didn't find the sentinel, and said, "I'm afraid they are at the front door."
Sun Yat-sen said, "Oh, then let's go to the front door to see them."
At this moment, the guard in front said, "Captain Wen and the others are here." After noticing that there were no sentries, the guard in front signaled the two guards to walk in front. The guard in front happened to see. The guard looked back and Wen Susong took Jiang Xianyun Zhuang Jihua to walk quickly. The guard hurriedly came forward and asked in a low voice: "Captain Wen, why are there no whistles here? This is too relaxed."
Wen Susong didn't reply, but just smiled, stepped forward and saluted Sun Yat-sen, and said, "Prime Minister, this is the periphery of the warning range. If you walk further out of the woods, it is not our warning area. For safety reasons, Prime Minister should please go back."
Sun Yat-sen smiled and said, "You also remind me, the head guard has already reminded me just now." After saying that, he walked back and passed by Zhuang Jihua and said, "I remember you, your name is Zhuang Wenge, and your performance in the last drill was excellent."
Zhuang Jihua was still a little excited when facing this great man for the second time: "Yes, the Prime Minister will never forget the teaching of students." Sun Yat-sen was the Prime Minister of the Whampoa Military Academy, so when Huangpu classmates mentioned Sun Yat-sen, they all claimed that the Prime Minister called himself a student.
Sun Yat-sen nodded and said, "Your name is Jiang Wushan. I heard Zhongkai mention you, and he praised you very much."
"Yes, that's because of the care of the political commissar, and the students are ashamed of it." This was the first time Jiang Xianyun faced Sun Yat-sen, and his mood was even better than Zhuang Jihua.
Sun Yat-sen was very satisfied with the performance of the two, and signaled them to follow behind and chat while walking. Zhuang Jihua and Jiang Xianyun asked and answered questions and answered them, and soon came to peace.
The Chief Guard and Wen Susong walked behind, and the Chief Guard quietly complained: "Captain Wen, have you not sent a whistle? There are whistles on the defensive map you gave me."
Wen Susong smiled and said, "There are not only those here, but also in the woods in front of you, but you didn't see it."
"Brother, this is not a joke. If something happens, our heads may not be enough." The head guard said worriedly.
"What are you muttering behind? Let's listen." Sun Yat-sen heard the two of them talking behind.
Wen Susong smiled and said, "The Chief Guard did not see the sentry and thought we had not sent a sentry, so I was telling him."
"Oh, I didn't see it either, where are you sent?" Sun Yat-sen looked around. There were indeed no sentinels, but he believed that Wen Susong would not deceive him.
Wen Susong turned around and whistled, and stood up from different distances behind the left and right, three people dressed inexplicably, looking like three piles of grass from a distance. The three stood up and stood at attention. Wen Susong waved their hands to let them come over. The three came in front of them. Only then did the guard see clearly that the three were wearing a strange cloak, covered with grass, straw and leaves, and a strange hat on their heads, which was covered with straw and leaves. They couldn't help but ask, "What are you wearing?"
"This is a disguised costume. I didn't think anything was wrong when I first opened it, but as soon as I put it on and lie down into the ground, you can't tell it if you don't pass by. If they didn't stand up just now, it would be difficult for you to find out even if you were willing, right?"
Wen Susong was a little proud and continued, "We have also arranged a whistle in this place. This whistle is for the enemy to discover and avoid."
The Captain Guard was a little surprised: "Captain Wen, for the enemy to discover and avoid? What does this mean?"
Wen Susong's complacent heart became stronger, and there were few opportunities to show his face in front of the Prime Minister: "This is a psychological problem. For example, if the enemy wants to sneak in, if there are no sentinels here, it will definitely feel strange and they will not take action. Since that is the case, then arrange a swimming whistle to let them discover it, and then judge that the alert here is relaxed and boldly sneak in, which will fall into our trap. We have calculated that as long as this land is set up at those three positions, you can see it from that direction."
The head guard stepped forward to touch the strange costume. It was actually a net-like thing. Remove the grass and leaves, and it was a net. This kind of website is very common, both in Shaoguan and Guangzhou, but after this treatment, it became a wonderful disguised costume and couldn't help but praise it.
Sun Yat-sen also circled around the sentry and asked with concern: "How long will it take for your squad to work?"
"Report to the Prime Minister, four hours."
"Just lying on your feet for four hours?"
"Yes, Prime Minister."
"Thank you for your hard work."
"Reporting to the Prime Minister, it is our responsibility and our wish to defend the Prime Minister."
Sun Yat-sen smiled with satisfaction. At this time, he felt that all his efforts to the military academy were worth it and his efforts were not in vain.
