"The whole army?"

"As for the whole army," Zhuang Jihua said, "the whole army is necessary, first, it cannot support so many troops, and second, the army must be revolutionized." The Prime Minister once concluded that the reason why the revolution has suffered setbacks at every turn over the past decade or so is that there is no revolutionary army. This is a lesson summed up with blood, and the prime minister once pinned his hopes on Lu Rongting and Chen Jiongming, but the result. Fighting warlords with warlords is undoubtedly a matter of seeking fish. So I think all the armies in Guangdong should be reorganized. ”

"Does the party army also need to be rectified?" Yu Peidi asked with some surprise, the reorganization of the army in this era is a very dangerous action, and the cause of Xiong Kewu's decline was also the reorganization of the army, which led to the rebellion of Deng Xihou, Tian Songyao and others, and finally made the already defeated Liu Xiang rise again. Now the political axe in Guangzhou also needs to reorganize the army, and if it is not done well, it will be a chaotic melee.

"I'm afraid the party army is an exception. The reason is very simple: The establishment of the party army itself was built in the same way as the Soviet Russian army, and the whole army was to reorganize the army in accordance with the Soviet Russian way, establish the party representative system, and appoint party representatives from the company level, and the party representatives have the final say. At this time, Zhuang Jihua felt a kind of awkwardness in his heart, he came to touch the bottom of Yu Peidi, but now he felt that Yu Peidi was using him to spy on the news. Old fox, Zhuang Jihua scolded in his heart.

"Senior Commander Yu, I don't know what you think of the whole army?" Zhuang Jihua decided to take the initiative and forced Yu Peidi to express his position.

"If that's the case, it's a good thing to have the whole army as a whole. It's also a lot of work, and you have to plan it out in advance. If the conditions are not ripe, it is best to put it first. Yu Peidi thought about it.

"Well, please give me more advice." Zhuang Jihua said very sincerely.

"How about the Cultural Revolution..." Yu Peidi asked with some surprise. A small lieutenant colonel can still be involved in such a big thing as the whole army. He is not only more interested in Zhuang Jihua.

"Such a big matter can be interjected by my little lieutenant colonel, but I guess the principal will probably participate, and if the principal consults me, I can also borrow flowers to offer Buddha."

Yu Peidi didn't think so, borrowing flowers to offer Buddha, there are so many important people in Guangzhou, and there are not many knowledgeable people, how can there be no one around Chiang Kai-shek, Wang Jingwei, and Liao Zhongkai to consult the strategy, and it will be your turn Zhuang Jihua, unless you Zhuang Jihua participated in it from the beginning, but he is a small lieutenant colonel, can participate in such a big event, Yu Peidi can't help but doubt it.

But then Yu Peidi thought again, if Zhuang Jihua was secretly holding a more important job, then it might be a good thing for him, after all, judging from his interactions with him, this young man was still a hot-blooded young man, and he was not so insidious.

So Yu Peidi said: "The biggest problem of the whole army is the problem of the soldiers' way out, if this problem is not solved well, the soldiers who are rectified will become bandits, leaving hidden dangers; In fact, this is not the worst, the worst thing is that the soldiers know that there is no way out, and they will rise up and make trouble under the provocation of those who have a heart. ”

"It is estimated that there will be no rebellion, and Master Yu may not know that due to the influence of the development of the revolutionary situation, the revolutionary consciousness of the Guangdong army is generally higher than that of the army of other provinces. In particular, the anti-imperialist protest movement has recently been on the rise, and both military and civilian people in Guangdong have enthusiastically participated in it and received an ideological education. ”

Yu Peidi nodded, he agreed with this statement, there were various identities among the people who participated in the march in Guangzhou, but he did not agree that ideological consciousness can stop the turmoil.

"Can ideological consciousness still have this effect?" Yu Peidi asked suspiciously.

"Of course, you see," Zhuang Jihua pointed to the tombstone standing: "At the beginning, hundreds of you free people dared to attack the Qing Zheng axe, and everyone charged forward, not afraid of sacrifice, causing heavy damage to the enemy, from a military point of view, it can be said that the combat effectiveness is amazing, but where does your combat effectiveness come from?" Are your weapons better than the enemy, or are you outnumbered? Neither, but your thinking is stronger than theirs, and if the Guangdong army can now have the consciousness of the martyrs, this army can sweep the world. ”

Yu Peidi quietly looked at the tombstone, the tomb of the seventy-two martyrs, not only with thoughts. The young, enthusiastic, smiling voices and smiles of those years appeared in front of me again. Twenty years of bloody rain and bloody wind have brought about broken mountains and rivers, and the people are struggling to make a living. Why is this happening, looking back at midnight, I am full of sorrow. Perhaps this young man is right, more public and less self-interest, and the country may not be like this.

Zhuang Jihua pretended not to pay attention to Yu Peidi's demeanor, and looked intently at the Statue of Liberty on the memory workshop, the goddess held a book in her left hand, raised a mallet in her right hand, and her skirt fluttered. Zhuang Jihua was a little puzzled, the French goddess of liberty is holding a steel gun in her hand and guiding the people; The goddess of the United States is holding a torch, how to hold a mallet in this way. Zhuang Jihua was a little funny, but he didn't have time to think about it.

"Just now I said that your army is unlucky, in fact, this is on the one hand, and on the other hand, the new establishment of the political axe will inevitably involve many personnel changes, with Xiong Jingong's qualifications and ability, I am afraid that the political axe will not let him only serve as the commander of the Sichuan army."

When Yu Peidi heard Zhuang Jihua's words, he couldn't help but feel a little strange in his heart, this more than a year of displacement has dealt a very big blow to the Sichuan army, not only among low-level officers, but also among high-ranking officers, and the members of the nine-member regiment that Xiong Kewu relied on are now only him, but Mao Xin, Zhang Chong, Yu Jitang, one of the pillars of the Sichuan army, and Li Weiru, the former chief of staff, all left the army out of despair.

Maybe this is also a road, as long as more than 20,000 Sichuan soldiers can find a way out, it is not impossible to reorganize.

"If this is the case, it is also a good thing that the Sichuan army is reorganized." After Yu Peidi thought it through, he decided to send a letter to the high-level leaders of the base camp through Zhuang Jihua, expressing his support for the reorganization, and he thought that Xiong Kewu would also agree.

"What if? Master Yu, what does this mean? Zhuang Jihua did not accept Yu Peidi's statement immediately when he heard it, but keenly felt the peculiar smell in Yu Peidi's words.

"From Sichuan to Guangdong, we have suffered a lot along the way, the purpose is to continue the revolution, the Cultural Revolution, even according to your conditions, the consciousness of our Sichuan army officers and soldiers is not low, those who are willing to continue the revolution will stay here, and those who are unwilling will leave early." Yu Peidi said in silence.

Zhuang Jihua finally grasped Yu Peidi's mind now, Yu Peidi is now in a dilemma, continue to work, the future is not visible, let's go, the tens of thousands of Sichuan troops were brought out of Sichuan by them, followed them for many years, threw them down and fled by themselves, I am afraid I will not dare to return to Sichuan in the future. The deeper factor is probably Yu Peilun lying here, the most famous of the seventy-two martyrs are him and Lin Juemin. Facing Yu Peilun's reputation, Yu Peidi has to hold on even if he doesn't want to do it. It seems that the relatives of celebrities are not easy to do, Zhuang Jihua looked at Yu Peidi, and there was a trace of pity hidden in his eyes.

Back at the headquarters, before Zhuang Jihua could catch his breath, He Jinhan rushed into his office.

"Cultural Revolution, you can be counted as back." He Jinhan handed the information in his hand to Zhuang Jihua: "There are two things that need to be decided immediately; First, whether Fan Hanjie stayed in the Guangdong Army or returned to the Party Army; Second, the charter for the development of youth should be finalized and handed over to the principal. ”

The Yunnan Gui army was destroyed, even if Fan Hanjie's mission was over, he himself had proposed to return to the party army several times, but Zhuang Jihua just didn't reply, making Fan Hanjie uncomfortable. Now Chen Mingshu found Fan Hanjie and expressed the hope that he could go to his army, and as soon as he went, he would be given the position of regiment commander, Fan Hanjie immediately reported, but said that he did not want to go, but wanted to come back. But because he didn't know Zhuang Jihua's thoughts, he didn't refuse Chen Mingshu, but Chen Mingshu hoped that he could make a decision as soon as possible.

"Heh, there's such a good thing, it's pie in the sky." Zhuang Jihua smiled, he has been hesitating about Fan Hanjie, the expansion of the party army needs talents, and it is also a way to transfer him back, but he is transferred back like this, Zhuang Jihua is a little unwilling, he thinks that Fan Hanjie can have a greater role, and now that Chen Mingshu has given him an opportunity, Zhuang Jihua immediately decided to let Fan Hanjie continue to lurk in the Guangdong army.

"Tell Fan Hanjie to accept Chen Mingshu's invitation and continue to stay in the Guangdong army." Zhuang Jihua said to He Jinhan. He Jinhan nodded in agreement, in fact, he also meant this.

"Did you know that Chen Mingshu would want Fan Hanjie?" He asked coldly. Before Chen Mingshu invited, he thought that Fan Hanjie's task had been completed and suggested that he be transferred back, he didn't understand why Zhuang Jihua hesitated, but now it seems that Zhuang Jihua's hesitation is justified.

"I don't know." Zhuang Jihua shook his head and said, "However, Brother Fan's experience is special, and he has good connections in other armies. It should be possible to play a bigger role, and once you tune it back, all the changes are gone. That's why I'm hesitant. ”

"Why does Chen Mingshu still want Lao Fan?" I don't understand Chen Mingshu's actions, you must know that Fan Hanjie led the students of the Guijun School to support the base camp with a clear banner when the Guijun rebelled, and the Huangpu color was very strong.

"I'm going to ask Chen Mingshu here." Zhuang Jihua said with a smile: "I think that after such a long time, Brother Fan is still in the military academy and has not returned to the party army, which shows that Brother Fan is just acting spontaneously based on consciousness." Think about it, this is also reasonable, if you have been trained at the Whampoa Military Academy for so long, as soon as Liu Zhenhuan rebels, Brother Fan will participate, then it is not normal. ”

"Tell Brother Fan, let him be prepared for a long period of lurking, his chess piece, I'm afraid it will take many years before it can work." Zhuang Jihua thought about it and added.

"Okay, that's the matter of Lao Fan, how to develop the charter of youth?" He asked coldly.

Speaking of this, Zhuang Jihua was very annoyed, it was his suggestion to develop young people to join the party, but he never expected that he would let Sun Society preside, and let him, who is not a member of Sun Society, preside.

"The principal doesn't know what to think, I'm not a member of the society," Zhuang Jihua said this, paused again, looked at He Jinhan, and had an idea in his heart.

"Junshan, is this good, let's divide the labor, the principal's order also says that the two of us are responsible, you know how much I have to do now, I don't have so much energy, can you help me." Zhuang Jihua saw that He Jinhan was about to excuse himself, so he hurriedly blocked his mouth.

He Jinhan actually couldn't ask for it in his heart, but he didn't dare to bring it up first, and Zhuang Jihua proposed that he would postpone it. The Sun Society was developed in his hands, and now there are tens of thousands of members in Guangzhou alone, not only cadets of the Whampoa Military Academy, but also members inside and outside the military, such as the Navy and the Guangdong Military Lecture Hall, Sun Yat-sen University, and the Normal School, and the speed of development far exceeds that of the Young Servicemen's Federation.

Of course, He Jinhan organized the Sun Society to hope that he could rely on this organization to make his career smoother, and now that the organization has developed, it will play a role, but he didn't expect Chiang Kai-shek to stuff Zhuang Jihua into a place, and let Zhuang Jihua be responsible, which made him a little unwilling, but he didn't dare to express it at all. Zhuang Jihua's vision and methods, he has also seen, and he thinks that he is far from enough.

Now Zhuang Jihua took the initiative to propose the division of labor and let him be in charge, which is in his hands, but he still has to express it on face.

"I don't have a problem with the division of labor, but where is the principal?"

"I'll go and say to the principal," Zhuang Jihua said indifferently: "Junshan, with your talents, this matter can be completely left to you, the principal asked me to participate, I think he probably meant to let me remind you on the side, not to let me meddle in the specific work." ”

Hearing this, He Jinhan felt even more uncomfortable, Zhuang Jihua also felt that this was too plain, and it hurt He Jinhan's self-esteem, so he added: "Junshan, in fact, I provoked this incident..." As he spoke, he told He Jinhan part of the contents of his report.

"But what I don't know is that the principal will actually let Sun Xuexue do the work of developing young people to join the party, which may be a miracle." He Jinhan did not have the slightest doubt about Zhuang Jihua's words, a few days ago Zhuang Jihua was writing documents all night long, he didn't expect Zhuang Jihua to be designing such a big move, but this couldn't surprise him anymore, Zhuang Jihua surprised him too much. However, he finally understood Chiang Kai-shek's purpose of letting Zhuang Jihua participate, that is, to let Zhuang Jihua ensure that the direction of work did not deviate.

"Okay, in that case, Cultural Revolution, let's talk about how to divide labor." He Jinhan, who understood it, was no longer modest.

"You are in charge of the specific work, and I am only in charge of the policy direction, what do you think?" Zhuang Jihua said.

"Okay, I'm okay."

"Okay, let me tell you what I think." Zhuang Jihua said: "First of all, you can't join the party for the sake of joining the party, so you should first select the activists in the Sun Society to join the party; Second, it is necessary to solve the work after joining the party, and not let them have the feeling that they have everything when they join the party; Do you remember the issues we talked about when we were in Meixian? ”

He Zhenhan carefully recalled in his mind that when Zhuang Jihua talked to them in Meixian County, he remembered that that night Zhuang Jihua walked into his and Zeng Kuoqing's office with an article, and later told them about the factory and the countryside.

"Factories and villages, workers and peasants, some people say that [***] organize trade unions and bring workers online; Organized peasant associations and brought the peasants online. This is nonsense, you don't organize, people organize, of course people run away with others. Therefore, trade unions and peasant unions are a gap in our party's work, and we must fill in it. ”
