On the eastern foot of Yunshan, the sound of killing on the mountain is shaking the sky. Gray figures are on the hillside, fighting fiercely in the bushes. From time to time, officers with red armbands are shuttled through them. When they get there, the fighting stops, and then some people are left behind, and the rest continue to move forward.

Chiang Kai-shek put down the telescope in his hand, soft and a little sore eyes. Since the first phase of the school students shined in the graduation exercise, the graduation exercises of each phase of the military academy were imitated by the first phase mode, and the subjects were set and then the students played their own. The commanders of both parties were still the instructors, and they still did not plan. Chiang Kai-shek was in a meeting and could not participate in such exercises, but he felt guilty about the students of the second and third phases. After the second and third phases entered the school, the Liao case was still slapped in the middle of the two consecutive Eastern Expeditions. He could not experience it every day like the first phase of the school. Now that they are about to graduate, Chiang Kai-shek firmly wants to participate in their graduation exercises. Not only that, he also invited the general counsel Ji Jiashan and military adviser Luo Jiajuefu to come to observe the scene. He vaguely felt that Ji Jiashan was not as concerned about the Northern Expedition as Borotin. Every time he talked about the Northern Expedition, he always talked about him.

"I, the principal, are not competent and care too little about them. Maoru, you are so worried." Chiang Kai-shek was quite satisfied with the exercise. The students were very brave in the exercise field, so Chiang Kai-shek was quite satisfied with Wang Boling.

"The principal is responsible for the country's heavy responsibility, so he can't do everything himself like in the first session. Our subordinates should do more." Wang Bailing's humility contained a hint of complacency, which made Zhang Zhizhong and he seriously despise him. Wang Bailing's escape in the Battle of Tamsui had long been spread throughout the school, and had no prestige among the students. He had long wanted to leave the military academy and had little care about the affairs of the military academy.

But Chiang Kai-shek seemed to be unclear and forced his credit to Wang Boling: "Where is this, you have to do something when you take up his position. I, as the principal, should be criticized if I fail to do my best. I have too many positions, so I should remove a few more time and spend more time running the school."

Wang Bailing didn't dare to respond now. He knew Chiang Kai-shek and removed several positions. He removed that, the principal of the Whampoa Military Academy, the member of the Military Committee, the commander of the First Army, the commander of the garrison, and the commander of the garrison. These are key positions and those who hold real power. In Wang Bailing's opinion, they cannot be removed.

"The principal said this to the point. The principal has too many positions and it is difficult to take into account both." Zhang Zhizhong deeply felt that he had worked part-time for more than a dozen, so he resigned one after another. Only three positions were the Chief of Staff of the Garrison Command, the Chief of Staff of the Second Division and the Head of the Whampoa Military Academy Student Corps.

"It seems you are deeply hurt by it." Chiang Kai-shek was very excited. Zhuang Jihua's proposal was passed, and the following is the formulation of the bill. Since Zhuang Jihua submitted three drafts at the same time and the conference also elected an eleven legislative committee, Chiang Kai-shek believed that these three bills should be decided soon, so that the political and economic strategies before the Northern Expedition were determined, the hidden dangers between the two parties were eliminated, and troops could be sent at the latest in July this year.

"Oh, it's so hot. I don't land all day long, either a motorboat or a car. But if I really ask what I do, it's really hard to say. Later, I thought about it, it's better to quit and concentrate on one or two things, and maybe I get more." Zhang Zhizhong laughed and introduced his experience.

"Well, you're right." Chiang Kai-shek praised it very much. He could see that Zhang Zhizhong was saying the truth: "I plan to resign from the positions of commander of the first army and commander of the Guangzhou garrison, Wen Bai. What do you think?"

"In the future, the army will be stationed in Dongjiang. It will be difficult for the principal to take into account both the position of the commander. You can resign. There is no need to be a commander of the garrison." Zhang Zhizhong replied after thinking a little. Wang Bailing was sweating coldly. The commander of the army is real power and control the army. Is Zhang Zhizhong too brave?

Unexpectedly, Chiang Kai-shek shook his head and said, "There is no need. Wang Dongcheng wants to be the commander of the garrison, so I will give it to him. I must resign from these two positions."

Zhang Zhizhong restrained his smile and said with a serious expression: "Wang Dongcheng is not talented and has unstable character, and cannot shoulder heavy responsibilities. Even if the principal wants to resign from his position as the commander of the garrison, he cannot hand it over to Wang Dongcheng."

Chiang Kai-shek's expression was quiet and his eyes turned a little first-rate on Zhang Zhizhong's face: "Wu, Wang Dongcheng still has talent. You are his chief of staff, don't just evaluate the chief."

Only then did Zhang Zhizhong remember that he was also serving as the Chief of Staff of the Second Division. Unexpectedly, he became a villain. He couldn't help but smile bitterly: "What do you think about the principal? If it were the Chief of Staff of the Second Division alone, I wouldn't have appeared here. I am now speaking as the head of the Whampoa Military Academy."

Chiang Kai-shek smiled and said, "I thought Wen Bai was an honest and honest person, and it turned out that he had an organically changed power and power." After saying that, he laughed.

Zhang Zhizhong smiled bitterly and said: "The environment is forced by helplessness, and there is no question of being able to change one's power."

Everyone looked at each other and laughed. At this time, Ji Jiashan put down his telescope and spoke Russian. Chiang Kai-shek and others turned around and looked at it. The translator told Chiang Kai-shek that Chiang Kai-shek said that at this time, a wonderful mountain offensive and defensive exercise was very brave and comparable to Soviet soldiers. However, their tactical abilities were still lacking.

The translator said that his expression changed slightly at the end. Chiang Kai-shek knew that this was the translator to give him a face. In fact, he had just seen that three points of military and seven points of politics are the characteristics of the Whampoa Military Academy. It was decided by Sun Yat-sen. Moreover, as far as the current faculty is concerned, the education of the Whampoa Military Academy is only a secondary education at most. Moreover, students have to complete the learning tasks of others in three years in a year, and no one can be perfect.

"You are right," Chiang Kai-shek nodded and said: "They have only completed the courses of Army Primary School. However, the revolution now requires a large number of cadres and cannot be fully trained step by step. In the future, they can only learn from the war. In fact, their studies have been long enough, and the students in one period have only been six months."

Chiang Kai-shek's implication was that students in the first phase only studied for six months, and still completed the Eastern Expedition to suppress the rebellion and unify Guangdong. Students in the third phase studied for one year, which could fully meet the needs of the Northern Expedition.

Ji Jiashan didn't understand. He shook his head and said, "It is difficult for such an army of students to defeat the powerful Northern Army."

Chiang Kai-shek's heart skipped a beat. How could Ji Jiashan speak like this? He looked around and Zhang Zhizhong stared at Ji Jiashan with a little thoughtful look, but his expression was a little excited.

Leng looked at the exercises on the opposite hill carelessly, and seemed to have not heard it.

"Consultant Ji, the first class students only studied for six months, and the combat effectiveness of the first army is obvious to all."

Ji Jiashan shook his head and said, "No, no, General Jiang, it's not that I despise your school. Chen Jiongming is just this compared to your army," he said, raising his little finger: "But compared to your army in the north, you become this."

He was so furious that he snorted and turned away. Chiang Kai-shek's face was burning. He suppressed the anger in his heart and said coldly: "Guest Ji, the Huangpu Party Army is currently the latest Chinese army. The officers and soldiers all have high political awareness and courage to sacrifice, so we can defeat all enemies."

"No, general. Although your army is brave, courage cannot represent everything. Brave can win a battle, but cannot win a war." Ji Jiashan still insisted stubbornly.

"Isn't political work an experience of your country's army building?" Chiang Kai-shek was very surprised. His implication was that this experience was passed down to us by you, why did you deny it?

"Military political work is to ensure the loyalty of the army and improve the fighting will of soldiers. For senior officers, it cannot be used as a factor in measuring the victory or defeat of the war." Ji Jiashan explained to Chiang Kai-shek.

This statement made Chiang Kai-shek unacceptable. He has always regarded the introduction of political work into the army as a proud move. During his visit to the Soviet Union, the Soviet leaders repeatedly talked about the importance of political work to him, so why did it change its influence when he arrived at Ji Jiashan?

"Mr. Consultant, when I visited your country, your leader Trotsky once regarded the political work of the military as the source of the powerful power of the Soviet Red Army. The Whampoa Military Academy was also established under the guidance of Consultant Bao and General Galen." Chiang Kai-shek changed his name coldly. However, Ji Jiashan, who was not a Chinese, did not know the meaning of it at all.

Faced with Chiang Kai-shek's questioning, Ji Jiashan still made a statement: "Trotsky is a political leader. He is not a professional military general. You can ask General Luo Ghajueff. When planning a war plan, he will definitely not take political work into consideration as a condition."

The strong argument was sneered and suppressed the anger in his heart. He felt that Ji Jiashan must have other purposes for slandering the Whampoa Military Academy like this: "But even so, our strength is not weak compared to the northern army. There are currently five armies in Guangdong, and General Cheng Qian is forming the Sixth Army. After a period of time, General Li Zongren of Guangxi can also form an army, so that by July, Guangdong and Guangxi can mobilize 100,000 troops to fight."

"Most of your army can only be considered mercenaries. Such an army has very weak combat power. Before I came to China, I talked with General Gerker. He said that General Wu Peifu's army was disciplined and brave and good at fighting, and was China's most powerful army." The Communist International once regarded Wu Peifu as their first choice. When he flew to China, the first one was not Sun Yat-sen but Wu Peifu. It was only after Wu Pei refused the Soviet Union and suppressed the 27th National Congress strike that the Soviet Union turned its target to the Kuomintang; therefore, the Soviet Union had all the intelligence information about the forces coming from China. Ji Jiashan had read these materials before coming to China. He was deeply impressed by the introduction of Wu Peifu in the materials.

"General Gekel?" Chiang Kai-shek had never heard of it and asked Ji Jiashan suspiciously.

"Oh, he is the dean of our country's staff college and has worked as a military officer in China before." Ji Jiashan felt that he had a silence and hurriedly concealed it. However, under Chiang Kai-shek's gaze, he looked a little panicked.

Despite his doubts, Chiang Kai-shek reluctantly accepted Ji Jiashan's explanation of Gekel. He still held back and said: "It seems that he has a bad vision, and Wu Peifu still failed."

When he said this, he remembered Zhuang Jihua's statement at Yunqiao. This Gerker seemed to be inferior to Zhuang Jihua, but he was just a fool.

"No, General Wu is just a temporary setback. Now he is leading the army of fourteen provinces to attack Zhang Zuolin, the lackey of Japanese imperialism." Ji Jiashan defended Wu Peifu.

"Then you really should be consulting for him." Chiang Kai-shek finished speaking coldly and left angrily. The translator did not dare to translate the original words. Ji Jiashan's expression told everyone that he didn't care.

Although Borotin had not left yet, Ji Jiashan had begun to inherit his position in Guangzhou. Ji Jiashan had his own plan. In his opinion, Chiang Kai-shek strongly advocated the confidence of the Northern Expedition to establish the bravery and good combat of the party army. If Chiang Kai-shek could realize that the northern military was strong, then he would not mention the Northern Expedition again.

The defenders on the opposite hill finally drove the attacking side down the hill, but while they were taking advantage of the victory to pursue, a team of soldiers rushed out of their flanks, and immediately turned back to attack on the front. Under the attack of both directions, the defense fell into chaos.

Chiang Kai-shek no longer had the intention to watch the exercise. He stood there with a depressed expression and stared at the opposite side, with nothing in his eyes, allowing the cold mountain wind to blow on the Buddha.

Zhang Zhizhong quietly approached Chiang Kai-shek and whispered: "It seems that Ji Jiashan does not agree with the Northern Expedition."

Chiang Kai-shek nodded and shook his head. Zhang Zhizhong didn't know what Chiang Kai-shek meant. He looked up at him in surprise.

Chiang Kai-shek didn't say anything, but he was thinking about what Ji Jiashan said repeatedly in his heart.

After the exercise, the students participating in the exercise dragged their tired bodies, carrying mud and dust, neatly arranged on the exercise field. Chiang Kai-shek looked at hundreds of strong gazes in front of him, and felt mixed feelings: "There is a deputy couplet in front of the Whampoa Military Academy. Please go elsewhere if you get promoted and get rich. Don't enter this door if you are afraid of death; are you afraid of death?"

Nine hundred throats shouted in unison: "Die for the revolution, die as the only one!"

"Well said! We joined Huangpu to die for the revolution. We don't know whether our personal lives will die today or tomorrow.

Many students in the first, second and third periods have died, including the Battle of Dongjiang, the Battle of Shaji, and the Battle of Yang and Liu. If we do not understand the meaning of life, we will feel wronged even if we die for the struggle. I believe that all the students who have died understand what I said and are very happy, because our lives are not fragments, but continue."

Chiang Kai-shek paused for a moment, his anger was still burning. He remembered the fallen soldiers from Huizhou city: "I

The slogans of "destroy imperialism" and "destroy warlords" are all for the Prime Minister. We must do the Northern Expedition, which is the Prime Minister's legacy and our mission. Our revolutionary army is all heroes, capable of hard work, hardship, hardship, and fearlessness. We are not afraid of difficulties, and fearlessness. We defeat our enemies and achieve our final success."

………….

After venting, Chiang Kai-shek calmed down slightly, and then he slowed down and continued to preach:

"Although you graduate now, your actual level is not as good as that of Army Middle School. Not only are you far inferior to that of academic subjects, but you don't have a thorough understanding of political thought and party members' responsibilities... The biggest point of education is to hope that the educated will make progress by studying and managing by themselves. It is not necessary to rely on educators to supervise, otherwise the result will be bad... Don't think that reforming politics or arming war places is considered a revolution. It must be noted that the scope of the revolution is very wide, and food, daily life, words and deeds are within the scope of the revolution.

……………,

We have been revolutionizing for more than ten years and cannot succeed. It is not that our prime minister is inferior to Lenin. In fact, our Chinese society and environment are too bad. People with blood have become lazy. People with ambition have become dull. They only know how to be selfish and unable to be self-reliant. They have become half-dead people, and they are oppressed and bullied by others. They do not think they are shameful. They have no blood and no ambition. How can such a revolution be successful?

…….”

Zhang Zhizhong, the two of them were full of worries when they watched Chiang Kai-shek's speech. Ji Jiashan's change in attitude surprised them. Chiang Kai-shek had told them before that Borotin supported the Northern Expedition, and Zhang Zhizhong also participated in the formulation of the Northern Expedition plan, but now......, why did it suddenly change?

However, Chiang Kai-shek did not give up his plan. On the next day, he proposed to the Military Commission to resign from his position as commander and commander of the garrison, and suggested abolishing the commander system, conducting training in divisions in daily life, and then appointing temporary in wartime.

Wang Jingwei felt something was strange when he received Chiang Kai-shek's resignation letter. It was understandable that Chiang Kai-shek resigned as the commander of the army, but why did he resign as the commander of the garrison?

"What do you care about so much?" Just as Wang Jingwei was pondering, Chen Bijun said indifferently: "If you want him to stay, stay as long as you want him to leave; at worst, let Wang Dongcheng do it."

"It's probably not that simple. Chiang Kai-shek once proposed to abolish the army commander, but Zhu Yizhi (i.e. Zhu Peide) and Li Renchao (i.e. Li Jishen) and others did not agree. This time he wanted to take the lead, but why did he resign as the commander of the garrison?" Wang Jingwei didn't understand this.

"What did he say in the book?" Chen Bijun asked while flipping through the meeting notice.

"He said he wanted to concentrate on running the school." Wang Jingwei shook his head, obviously he thought the reason was a bit far-fetched.

"Do you think you can push Wang Dongcheng (i.e. Wang Maogong) to the Central Committee?" Chen Bijun suddenly asked, and Wang Jingwei's thoughts didn't follow for a while. Seeing him staring blankly, Chen Bijun smiled softly: "I mean, if Wang Dongcheng is allowed to become a Central Committee member, is it qualified to replace the garrison commander?"

Wang Jingwei then understood Chen Bijun’s intention. He thought for a moment and said, “I have to ask Chiang Kai-shek. After all, Wang Dongcheng is his subordinate. If he agrees, we will push him up.”

"Why do you have to agree? You are the chairman of the Kuomintang?" Wang Jingwei's weakness made Chen Bijun very dissatisfied.

"My wife, don't be too impatient for everything. Make soup with low heat. You have to take it slowly; let alone Chiang Kai-shek's support for me now." Wang Jingwei's implication is that there is no need to replace people now.

Chen Bijun sighed and said, "You really want to drink soup, but the soup is gone. At least Wang Dongcheng must be more obedient."

Wang Jingwei was slightly stunned, and after thinking about it, he said, "I will ask him when the meeting tomorrow and see what he thinks."

But the next day, Wang Jingwei did not meet Chiang Kai-shek at the venue. It turned out that Chiang Kai-shek had asked for leave on the grounds that his feet were sick.

Wang Jingwei was inexplicably sick when his feet were sick, but he was about to be elected as a member of the Central Committee after two days. Wang Jingwei couldn't afford to wait, so he hurried to Chiang Kai-shek's villa to visit him in the afternoon.

"Foot disease?" Many people were surprised by Chiang Kai-shek's illness and not attending the Second Congress. Wu Chaoshu, who had been following Chiang Kai-shek, frowned and thought for a long time after getting the news. Suddenly, he burst into laughter. Jiyuan and Li Yanguo looked at him in confusion, wondering what was ridiculous.

"Two, you have a door, and they have started to fight intra-fight." Wu Chaoshu said seriously after retracting his smile.

"Why did Mr. Yun say this?" Ji Yuan asked in confusion: "Wang Jingwei, Wang, supported Zhuang Wenge's proposal, what's the problem between them."

"Jiyuan, you don't know this. Chiang Kai-shek was playing Yuan Shikai's trick. In the 1911th, the Qing court wanted to cut Yuan Shikai's military power. Didn't he mean that he had foot disease? Later, Wuchang's reign, and the Qing court wanted to use him again. Yuan Shikai also asked the Qing court for foot disease. What kind of foot disease did Chiang Kai-shek have? He went to the military academy exercise yesterday, and today he had foot disease. His disease was really strange." It was not unaware of the two people watching the exercise yesterday, so they didn't believe that Chiang Kai-shek was really foot disease. He just didn't know what Chiang Kai-shek meant. Wu Chaoshu's words immediately blew away the fog in front of the two people, which made the two very excited.

"Yun Gong, then what do you think Chiang Kai-shek means?" Li Yanguo asked.

"I don't know either, but there is one thing that is certain. There is a conflict between them. This is a good thing, and it will be clear." Wu Chaoshu stood up excitedly.

"Okay, but Yun Gong, what should we do next?" Ji Yuan asked with a smile.

"Do nothing, wait." Wu Chaoshu said affirmatively: "We should not do anything. If we move, they will join forces again, and then we will have no chance. When the conflict between them accumulates and reaches a certain level, we will take action."
