Chang Ruiqing quickly walked into his mansion at the foot of Guanyin Mountain. It turned out to be the house of Chen Bingkun, the Guangdong Governor of the Gui Army. It covers a large area and is equipped with a special conference room and a war room. It is inside and outside the room and outside. It is very safe. It is Chang Ruiqing's base camp in Guangzhou, and the Central G Central also often borrows the venue here to hold meetings.

Today in the conference room of Changgongguan, Chen Duxiu, Li Dazhao, Shao Piaoping, Wang Yaqiao, Mao ZD who came back from a business trip from Jiangxi at the end of last month, and the Soviet envoy Yue Fei were all financially prosperous and waiting for a while. These are all people who are on par with Chang Ruiqing, so they are not waiting respectfully in the room, but gather together while smoking and drinking tea while talking loudly.

When he saw Chang Ruiqing walking in, he just nodded slightly. Chang Ruiqing rushed back to Guangzhou from the Western Expedition Command in Guilin, and then met guests for meetings. His expression was inevitably a little haggard. Everyone here knew in their hearts that as the National Revolution was about to win, the honeymoon period between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party, or Sun Chang, was about to pass. Every decision in the present may be related to the political structure of China in the future! Of course, this Vice Chairman Chang had to take up a 120,000-strong spirit to deal with it.

Of course, among the people here, who is not staring at the revolutionary fruits that are about to mature and land?

Seeing that everyone had arrived, Chang Ruiqing sighed slightly. To be honest, it was more troublesome to fight with his own people than to fight against the enemy! But in a blink of an eye, he constrained his mind and sat on his seat - today's meeting was not a meeting of the Military Commission. It was not his turn as the vice chairman to preside over it.

The meeting was presided over by Chen Duxiu, Chairman of the Central G Central Committee. He also looked tired. The Prime Minister of the National Government is not easy to be a good person! Now he has just seized Guangxi and is about to promote military and political affairs there. I don’t know how many troubles are coming! Moreover, the Kuomintang bureaucrats in the government are not as cooperative as before. For the appointment of local officials in Guangxi Province, the two parties have to argue almost a few times every day! And Chang Ruiqing, the vice chairman, only cared about his military affairs and did not come out to support himself. I am afraid he is dissatisfied with the restriction of his power by the Party Central Committee? It seems that the party’s military work cannot rely on him alone...

Thinking of this, he looked at Chang Ruiqing and said slowly: "Comrade Yaoru, what do you think of Jiang JShi, the deputy commander of the National Government and commander-in-chief of the Anti-Russian Army?"

When Chang Ruiqing heard Chen Duxiu's question, he seemed to be stunned for a moment, and was silent for a long time before shook his head slightly: "He is a loyal follower of Mr. Sun, a firm member of the Kuomintang..."

Before he could finish his words, Mao ZD's Hunan accent suddenly rang out: "But this firm Kuomintang member has just applied to join China GCD! Comrade Yaoru, do you think we can absorb him into the party?"

This news seemed to be far beyond Chang Ruiqing's expectations. He almost stayed on the spot, slowly turned his gaze to Mao ZD, paused for a while, and murmured: "Comrade Runzhi, you are the organization minister of our party. It is your job to recruit people into the organization. Do you think he is suitable to become a glorious GCD member?"

Mao sneered: "His joining is not unconditional... He wants our party and the Soviet envoy Comrade Yue Fei to support him in leading the anti-Russia struggle in the Northeast!"

A strange smile flashed across Chang Ruiqing's face, and then he changed into a dilemma: "Comrade Wu Shi is the one who leads the Northeast's anti-Russia struggle now. What if Jiang JShi is asked to go to the Northeast, what should Comrade Wu Shi do?"

Mao zd shrugged his shoulders: "Can you let Wu Shi and Jiang JShi cooperate!"

He waved his right hand vigorously and strengthened his tone: "The Northeast is the key to the success or failure of the National Revolution. If you have the Northeast, you will win the world... We must master the territory of the three northeastern provinces! Moreover, the army that captured Beijing and overthrew the Beiyang government in the future may be from the Northeast. Our party would better control this force. In the future, we will also master the capital Beijing!"

Chen Duxiu said lightly: "Comrade Yaoru, what do you think of Comrade Mao ZD's suggestions?"

Although his tone was faint, Chang Ruiqing heard it with a bit of enthusiasm. Master the Northeast and the capital Beijing... Then we should master the National Government and kick the Kuomintang away from the proletarian revolution! Chen Duxiu couldn't think of this idea. It seemed that it was not a trick given by Mao ZD. It was the work of the Soviet Russian adviser Yue Fei... By the way, how could this guy appear at the Central Bureau of the Central G?

Chang Ruiqing glanced at Yuefei coldly: "Comrade Yuefei, what do you think?"

Yue Fei focused heavily: "I also agree with Comrade Mao ZD's view... The experience of the Russian Revolution tells us that mastering the capital and important cities is the key to the victory of the revolution!" At this point, he suddenly looked at Mao ZD again, calmly speaking, and said word by word: "People can never become the main force of the revolution! So we don't have to spend too much energy in the countryside. Your approach in Anyuan, Jiangxi is completely unnecessary! And it has also caused unnecessary losses to the party, which is a serious mistake!"

Mao Zd's face was as if water was about to come out of it, and he snorted disdainfully: "The Chinese revolution must conform to China's national conditions, and Russia's style may not work in China!" He said that, and looked at Chang Ruiqing: "On this issue, I have the same view as Comrade Chang Yaoru!"

However, Chang Ruiqing did not speak up to support Mao Zd at this time. He was having a "small meeting" with Wang Yaqiao beside him and asked what happened in Anyuan, Jiangxi. Wang Yaqiao told him that while Mao Zd developed trade union organizations and party organizations among the Anyuan coal mine workers, he also extended his hands to Pingxiang County and the rural areas under the jurisdiction of nearby Shangsu County to develop peasant associations and fight against landlords... As a result, of course, it was fought by the landlords and reactionaries! Uh, failure is the mother of success. Even Mao Zd was not born to cause revolution, and it is normal for a small setback.

The leader of the local tyrants and evil gentry in Pingxiang, Zhang Pengxiao, who had served as governor in Xiangshan County, Zhejiang Province, came forward to gather the local landlord armed forces and fought several battles with the farmers' association and trade union armed forces led by Mao ZD. As a result, the landlord armed forces of Zhang Da Landlord were defeated. The bureaucratic landlord ran to the provincial capital Nanchang to "recruit troops". It was probably mid-last month that the first battalion of the 12th Division of the Beiyang Army brought back from Nanchang to bloody suppress all the farmers' armed forces near Pingxiang! However, these Beiyang soldiers did not ban the trade union organization of the Anyuan Coal Mine (Zhang Da Landlord Zhang was short-sighted and too stingy, only gave money to suppress the farmers' association, and did not give money to suppress the trade union), but only ordered the wanted Mao ZD himself.

Fortunately, Beiyang has always been very careless in doing business. Those who have been wanted warrants. If they are not particularly unlucky, they can usually get away with it. Of course, our Comrade Mao ZD is not the kind of unlucky comrade.

This matter was not a big deal. However, the Soviet envoy and interim adviser Yue Fei seized this matter and would criticize Mao Zd a few words whenever he had the opportunity, as if he wanted to establish his authority by fighting Mao Zd! Mao Zd was also a fighting master. He didn't buy Yue Fei's account at all. The two had quarreled several times at the meeting of the Central Bureau of the Central Gate. However, Mao Zd probably knew that relying on his own strength, he could not beat the Soviet envoy, so he wanted to help Chang Ruiqing become an ally...

After understanding the whole story, Chang Ruiqing decided to stand on Mao's side at the first time, not because he agreed with the other party's excessive rural policies, but because he could not allow Soviet Russian advisers to successfully establish prestige in China! Now that the Chinese revolution is in sight, all-round thoughts naturally become active. But it's okay for the Chinese to fight for power and profit, but we can no longer let the Russians intervene in and spread right and wrong! The Kuomintang split in history and the later rebellion of the Kuomintang and the Communist Party, these Soviet advisers have put a lot of effort into it!

Thinking of this, Chang Ruiqing spoke heavily: "Comrade Mao ZD is right! The Chinese revolution is based on China's national conditions, and a small setback is not a mistake... Isn't the Anyuan Coal Mine Union still intact? Even Pingxiang, Shangsu and other places the farmers' associations have not been completely destroyed! These forces can still play a role in future armed uprisings." After saying this, he changed the subject and talked about Jiang JShi's joining the party: "As for Jiang JShi's question of joining China GCD, it seems to me that it is not sincere, but that he wants to use the power of our party to seize the military and political power in the Northeast! After he controls the Northeast, he will never help our party! So I do not agree with accepting him to join China GCD!"

Chen Duxiu's face suddenly sank: "Will you hand over the plates from the Northeast? It is Mr. Sun's intention to let Jiang JShi go to the Northeast to preside over the situation! If we insist too much on this issue, it may cause a break between the two parties!" Speaking of this, he muttered in an inauspicious voice: "This is not a conflict between the two parties."

The meaning of this sentence is very clear. It is not the Kuomintang and the Communist Party that are fighting around the Northeast, but Chang Ruiqing and Sun Yat-sen, who are fighting for the No. 1 and No. 2 of the National Government!

Now Jiang JShi wanted to join the Chinese G as a condition in exchange for support from China G and the Soviet Union to dig Chang Ruiqing's corner! Chen Duxiu's idea was to recruit Jiang JShi to join the party to restrict Chang Ruiqing. Soviet advisers Yue Fei and Mao Zd also thought of using Jiang JShi to control the revolutionary army in the Northeast, and then put the capital Beijing into his palm.

In short, all the abacus beads in all aspects were extremely smart. However, they seemed to have forgotten that what caused the current struggle was really the "Northeast Military Plan" submitted by Chang Ruiqing to Sun Yat-sen!

Chang Ruiqing's brows were already tightly twisted at this time, and his face was also heavy. I don't know if he was thinking or angry. After a long time, he heard him sigh: "Please leave the plates of Northeast to Jiang JShi... After all, he is also a revolutionary comrade, and it is always good for the revolution to control the Northeast!"

"What!" Mao Zd and Yue Fei exclaimed in unison, and then the two glared at each other again. Chang Ruiqing explained calmly: "But the plates in the Northeast cannot be given to Jiang JShi unconditionally! His deputy army chief must be given to Wu Yuxun, and his commander-in-chief of the anti-Russian army was given to me. He was changed to the commander-in-chief of the Northeast anti-Russian army."

"This transaction is a loss!" Mao Zd looked at Chang Ruiqing with regret: "It's not worth it to exchange a short sub-master and a short commander-in-chief for a Northeast plate!"

Chen Duxiu asked in a deep voice: "The underground organizations of the Zhongdong Road Protection Division and the Red Brigade in the Northeast have also handed over?"

Chang Ruiqing said lightly: "The road protection master is completely handed over, and the underground organization of the Red Brigade can cooperate with Jiang JShi's activities, mainly with him. In addition, our relationship with Wu Peifu was also transferred to Jiang JShi. In short, the revolutionary work in the Northeast will be handed over to Jiang JShi after it."

Chen Duxiu gritted his teeth: "Then let's vote! I object!"

Li Dazhao and Shao Piaoping looked at each other and shouted loudly: "I object!"

"I agree!" "I agree too!" Chang Ruiqing and Wang Yaqiao are in the same group, and of course they both voted in favor. At present, there are seven members in the Central G Central Bureau, but Zhou Elai is still in the Northeast, so there are only six members in Guangzhou. Now Chen Duxiu, Li Dazhao and Shao Piaoping have voted against each other, and Chang Ruiqing and Wang Yaqiao voted in favor. Only Mao Zd has not expressed his opinion yet!

All eyes were on Mao ZD, waiting for his decision. The atmosphere in the room became more and more depressing, almost making people breathless. But Mao ZD frowned and said nothing. He also took out a cigarette from his pocket, wiping his anger, and started smoking in big mouthfuls. When the cigarette was finished, a hint of enlightenment suddenly flashed across the face of the young Central G Central Bureau member, and he laughed loudly: "I support Comrade Chang Yaoru's suggestions!"

It's three to three now!

Chang Ruiqing let out a sigh of relief, gave Mao Zd a thankful smile, and looked at Chen Duxiu and said, "Chairman Chen, do you want to hold a plenary session of the Central Committee?"

"No need, this matter doesn't need to be so big." Chen Duxiu sighed: "Let's give it to Jiang JShi in the Northeast... I hope he can be loyal to Sun Yat-sen's revolutionary line."

Chang Ruiqing looked at each other with Mao Zd sitting opposite him, and Chang Ruiqing smiled and said, "The situation in the Northeast is extremely complicated. If you do it well, it is certainly a good foundation, but it is more likely to mess it up! I think Wu Yuxun can't handle it, but now it depends on Jiang JShi's ability."

...

"Sir. Chang Yaoru has agreed to give up the Northeast plate to his subordinates!" Jiang JShi got the final reply from Chang Ruiqing on October 10, 1918. As soon as the Military Committee of the National Government in Guanyin Mountain came out, he went straight to Chairman Sun Yat-sen's Mansion in Shimin Tuchang to report the good news.

Sun Yat-sen met Jiang JShi in the back garden of Shimin Earth Factory, accompanied by Sun Yat-sen to meet Jiang JShi, as well as Xu Chongzhi and Soong Ching-ling. However, Mrs. Sun's dignified and beautiful face was gloomy, and her eyes looked at Jiang JShi were also cold. I wonder where Jiang Jiang offended this person?

Sun Yat-sen said lightly: "Are there any conditions?"

"The Army Chief gives to Wu Yuxun, and the Commander-in-Chief of the Anti-Russian Army to Chang Yaoru."

Sun Yat-sen was stunned for a moment and looked at Jiang JShi: "Is that all?"

"That's all." Jiang JShi said to Sun Yat-sen proudly: "After applying some subtle plans, Chang Yaoru had conflicts with several other members of the GCD Central Bureau. In order to stabilize his position, he had to give up the Northeast plate to his subordinates!"

"What happened?" Sun Yat-sen raised his eyebrows, but did not ask what subtle trick Jiang JShi used. He nodded to Jiang JShi: "Chang Yaoru's layout in the Northeast is very good. Now I'm giving it to you... You must do it with your heart and not mess up the matter." As he said that, he pointed to Xu Chongzhi, the chief of staff of the National Revolutionary Army, who was standing beside him: "JShi, you can't go to the Northeast empty-handed. Just tell me what you want."

Jiang JShi nodded gratefully: "Thank you, Mr. for your cultivation!"

Sun Yat-sen shook his head and said lightly: "There is no question of cultivation. You should go to the Northeast to conquer the country for me! But the situation in the Northeast is very complicated. The Japanese, Russians, local warlords in the Northeast, and people from the Beiyang have all entered.jstone, how do you plan to open up the situation?"

Jiang JShi has been thinking about this question for a long time. Now when he heard Sun Yat-sen's question, he replied loudly: "I think that the key to the Northeast problem is the Japanese! Originally, the Northeast was a balance of power between Japan and Russia, but now the Russians are in a civil war and their power is in decline. The Northeast has actually become a situation where the Japanese dominate the country! This time the anti-Russian battle... I think it seems that the Japanese are directing and acting!"

Sun Yat-sen smiled slightly and did not comment. Jiang JShi carefully considered the words and continued to talk: "Originally, we had no chance in the Northeast, and the Japanese would never allow revolutionary forces to be involved in the three northeastern provinces. But now they have signed a contract with the Soviet Union and are about to seize a large area of ​​territory from Russia! The text of the "Japan-Russia Secret Agreement" has also been read by subordinates. Not only did Russia cede more than 300,000 square kilometers to Japan, but also a half-time Far Eastern Republic, with millions of square kilometers! The Japanese still have various privileges there, just like they are in China. With the Japanese's temperament, they will definitely further covet the Far Eastern Republic... so that we have a chance!"

"Oh?" Sun Yat-sen's eyes flashed a gleam, and he looked at Jiang jshi. Jiang jshi stepped forward and came to Sun Yat-sen and shouted: "Sir, Japan's small country has swallowed 300,000 square kilometers of Russian territory, which has been swallowed by snakes. If we covet the Far East, it is simply overestimated. The only hope for success is to bring China into the gang... In this case, they will definitely slow down their invasion of the Northeast, and there may also be two factions within them, Lianhua and invasion of China. We must try our best to find supporters in the Japanese government and opposition!

So before going to Northeast China, I want to go to Japan first.”

"Okay! OK! OK!" After listening to Jiang JShi's analysis, Sun Yat-sen said three good words in a row, and then said to Jiang JShi with a smile: "Brother jShi, you can stay here for dinner today. I will introduce someone to you." As he said that, he glanced at the frosty Soong Ching Ling. (To be continued...)
