Gong Xiuhua looked at Zhuang Jihua in contemplation, he never rested well at the beginning of the battle, yesterday was an all-nighter, she regretted that she shouldn't have come out as soon as Qiu Qingquan left, she should have let him sleep, silently, she opened a small suitcase, took out a glass bottle from it, and scooped out two spoonfuls of coffee, this coffee was ground in advance, but she was worried that it would be too late when she needed it. //.qb5、COｍ\

A strong fragrance spread in the room, Zhuang Jihua took the coffee, and sniffed the strong fragrance emitted from it, and the fragrance dispelled the exhaustion in the spirit.

"The real trouble is Liu Xiang," Zhuang Jihua finally spoke: "Liu Xiang is the focus of balancing the forces of all parties in Sichuan, and it is also the best shield to deal with the above, with him, we can not come forward, if he is really ill, who can replace him, this must be another battle, alas." ”

Gong Xiuhua thought she was discussing with her, but she raised her head and found that Zhuang Jihua was talking to herself, and after a while, she finally couldn't help but ask, "What about the prince?" Sichuan Development Company doesn't care? ”

"Chiang Ching-kuo is too anxious, we are not the United States, there is no antitrust law, with the current status of the development company, as long as the shareholders unite to oppose it, the chairman of the committee will not dare to move it easily. As for the prohibition of drugs, gambling and prostitution, it is just to cut off the financial resources of local forces, especially the prohibition of drugs, except for our army in Sichuan, which does not rely on opium to raise the army, I dare not easily cut off this road, and this prince hurriedly cut the knife. Zhuang Jihua shook his head when he said this, he judged that Chiang Ching-kuo was probably going to touch the nail this time, and Chiang Kai-shek might transfer him back if he didn't get it, but Zhuang Jihua didn't want him to go back like this.

"Why didn't Zaita remind him?" Zhuang Jihua was a little irritable, Deng Wenyi banned drugs and gambling in Wuhan, and Teng Jie also had the idea of banning drugs and gambling, but was persuaded by Zhuang Jihua, and Li Zhilong was present at the time.

Of course, opium is not a good thing, but opium is an important source of wealth for the armies in Sichuan, and if they cut off their financial route, they will be counterattacked by their joint efforts, and it will add variables to the development of the southwest.

"I'm afraid Zaitian reminded me that this prince is afraid that he will hold his identity and won't listen to it." Gong embroidery painting for Li Zhilong to distinguish, she is a little incomprehensible to Zhuang Jihua so easy to give up several important positions, since she knows that Chiang Ching-kuo is a hand stretched out by Chiang Kai-shek, it is better to simply cut off this hand: "Cultural Revolution, I think I can use this matter to send this prince away." ”

Zhuang Jihua shook his head and refused without thinking about it: "No, get rid of him, the chairman will send someone else, in fact, Jiang Jingguo is a good choice, this person has the ability, and he also has the status of the prince, we can do something through him that we can't do before, he can't go." ”

"Can't do it?" Gong Xiuhua is a little confused, the southwest has been developed for a few years, and such a big thing as rent reduction and interest reduction has been done, what else has not been done?

"Of course, for example, such as purging the Kuomintang, reforming the party organization, eliminating corruption in the army, breaking the entrenchment of local clan forces in the locality, especially the twilight of the central government, I didn't dare to interfere with these before, and now I can let Chiang Ching-kuo do it, so not only will I not drive him away, but I will also help him get on the throne and let him enter the Central Committee as soon as possible, especially the Central Party Department." Zhuang Jihua sighed, the difficulty of this action is probably no worse than the defense of Nanjing, but it must be done.

"Then give him the Sichuan Development Company, this is a great credit, with this credit, your principal is afraid that he will let him enter the central government." Gong Xiuhua said angrily.

"That's so easy," Zhuang Jihua rolled his eyes: "This matter has to be planned slowly, give him the Three Youth League first, alas, who will replace Liu Xiang?" That's the urgency of the moment. ”

"Let's look for it in the 21st Army system." Gong Xiuhua put forward her suggestion, which was also the first thought in Zhuang Jihua's mind, but he quickly vetoed this idea, he sat there and thought for a long time but couldn't find a suitable person from the 21st Army system, Pan Wenhua, Tang Shizun, Wang Zanxu, Deng Hanxiang, none of them could make the rest of the 21st Army unanimously agree, as for Fu Chang, Qiao Yifu and others, these are all staff, and it is impossible to let those Wufu obey.

In addition to the 21st Army, other forces in Sichuan also went through his mind, but whether it was Deng Xihou or Tian Songyao, would the generals of the 21st Army agree? Zhuang Jihua has no bottom in his heart.

"It's difficult," Zhuang Jihua stood up, very frustrated: "** has a bad habit and never cultivates a second-in-command, because the second-in-command will threaten his status." Liu Xiang is like this, Feng Yuxiang is like this, and the principal is also like this. I really don't know who to choose. ”

"I'm afraid Stalin is the same." Gong Xiuhua suddenly came out with such a sentence, Zhuang Jihua didn't know why she mentioned this, didn't wait for the next sentence, turned his head to look at her, but found that there was a hint of mockery on her face.

Zhuang Jihua smiled bitterly, he didn't know how to resolve the scar on Gong Xiuhua's heart, the two fell silent, and after a long time, Gong Xiuhua sighed faintly: "If you can't think of it, don't think about it, you are exhausted, I'm afraid that your principal is also waiting for Liu Xiang's death, and it is useless to think about it no matter how much you think about it." ”

"If we can't come up with a candidate, then we have to accept the principal." Zhuang Jihua sat on the chair, a little distressed, and his head was a little swollen.

Gong Xiuhua walked behind him, gently pressed his delicate fingers on his temples, and carefully massaged his head: "Aren't you unelected, even if you reluctantly put forward a personal choice, they will oppose it en masse, and then it will be embarrassing, it's better to wait for them to play their cards, and then we will try to push our people up." ”

Zhuang Jihua was in his heart, the more he thought about it, the more he felt that this was a good idea, as soon as Liu Xiang died, the position of provincial chairman left behind would inevitably be the focus of all forces, and the sooner he would be exposed if he entered the competition too early, it was better to let them fight first, stand on the shore and watch, and decide according to the situation.

"Good idea, just do as you say, send electricity to Zaitian, if Liu Xiang dies, don't express your position on the matter of the provincial chairman, just say that please ask the heroes of Kawauchi to decide for themselves, we support. In addition, regarding the crown prince, we must try our best to mediate the contradictions between him and the powerful faction in Sichuan, and the Sichuan Development Company cannot be dismantled, this is the bottom line. ”

"Okay." Gong Xiuhua agreed, but the movements in his hands did not stop, and he moved Zhuang Jihua's head back, leaning on the middle of the two soft, and the two sides were faintly rubbed, and the tension of the days gradually relaxed, and a burst of sleepiness hit.

Xu Zuyi served as a commander overnight, and the enemy situation did not change much, but Tang Enbo and Pang Bingxun sent two more telegrams asking for help, and Deng Xihou called to report that Gu Shoufu's attack was even more fierce. The adjustment of all fronts is being carried out intensively, and so far there have been no major problems.

Despite this, neither he nor Gong Chu left the war room, this habit was passed on by Zhuang Jihua, when the battle of Xuzhou was tense, Zhuang Jihua stayed in the war room for ten days without going out.

"Brother Yan Mou, what do you think of Commander Zhuang?" Early in the morning, when Gong Chu and Xu Zuyi were walking in the small garden in the backyard, Gong Chu asked softly.

The Wang family is the surname in the Zhuangzi, the ancestral hall occupies a relatively large area, the front yard is full of pines and cypresses, the backyard is full of pines and cypresses, like a small Confucian temple, in the early morning haunts between the pines and cypresses, a fragrance of pine leaves lingers around, makes people feel refreshed.

"Commander Zhuang, the chairman of the committee, is talented, excellent in both military and political affairs, and is a rare handsome talent." Xu Zuyi said lightly.

The woods are very quiet, the birds and insects are extinct in winter, and there is no such excitement as in spring and summer, Gong Chu took a greedy breath, as if he wanted to inhale all the fragrance into his stomach and wash away the knots in his lungs.

"I'm from the GCD," Gong Chu's tone was a little lonely: "Whether in the Guangdong Army or the Central Army, there has never been a commander like Commander Zhuang who will let us go, we mean those of us who came from the GCD, including me, including Yang Yuchun." ”

Gong Chu stopped when he said this, Xu Zuyi also stopped, Gong Chu looked at Xu Zuyi and said solemnly: "These days, I am in the headquarters, I know that Commander Zhuang is under a lot of pressure, the development of the war situation is not going well, he is holding his breath in his heart, he can't get out, there are some impulsive places, we should be considerate." ”

Xu Zuyi understood what Gong Chu meant, and he smiled: "I heard that every unit on the GCD side has a political commissar, who is responsible for ideological work, and Director Gong shouldn't be a political commissar over there." ”

"The work I did there was quite miscellaneous, I did everything, editor, reporter, political commissar, military chief, and I also worked as a peasant movement during the Revolution." Gong Chu smiled bitterly, he heard the ridicule in Xu Zuyi's words, he didn't intend to ridicule him: "During this time, I have observed Commander Zhuang, he is still relatively fair, there are few factions, you see that around him, there are Huangpu factions, volunteer army, Sichuan army, Yunnan army, and former GCD people like me, he dares to use it, and he dares to use it." ”

Xu Zuyi was shortlisted, he understood that Gong Chu was reminding him that he was not from the Huangpu family, strictly speaking, he was from the Northeast Army, and he was one of the negotiators with the central government when Zhang Xueliang changed his banner.

In the past, the Northeast Army and Zhang Xueliang were his backers, but now this backer has fallen, and he has taken the line of He Yingqin during his tenure in Beiping over the years.

Xu Zuyi added some bitter lips, he knew that his mind was seen through by Gong Chu, which was a tactful persuasion to persuade him to stay.

"Commander Zhuang, he is young and vigorous, and this battle was not what he envisioned, he tried his best to cooperate, but in the end, he ended up with such a result, which is uncomfortable for anyone, and it may be normal to have a point."

Xu Zuyi slowly faced Gong Chu: "Director Gong, I didn't have the slightest grievance against Commander Zhuang, when the news came, I was also angry, I was just worried that he would make an irrational decision in a fit of rage." Don't worry, I know it. ”

Gong Chu looked at him and nodded slightly, he did everything he could. The reason why he talked so much with Xu Zuyi was that in his opinion, Xu Zuyi and Zhuang Jihua were both relatively good officials, Xu Zuyi was calm, and Zhuang Jihua was sharp; Zhuang Jihua has no factional views, Xu Zuyi is experienced in the rivers and lakes, and he keeps people on the front line in everything, under these two people, he can rest assured that he can do things boldly, and his future is guaranteed.

The two went around twice more before returning to the war room, and when they arrived at the door, they saw Hua Chun standing there, chatting with the two officers a little bored. Seeing Xu Zuyi and Gong Chu coming over, the three of them hurriedly saluted.

"Director Flowers, what are you doing? What happened to the front team and recruit recruitment? Xu Zuyi asked.

The actual work of the propaganda department is not only propaganda, but also responsible for organizing the front team and recruiting new recruits, it was originally Deng Wenyi who was in charge, and later Deng Wenyi went to Wuhan, and now Hua Chun is temporarily in charge.

Hua Chun sighed and said with a sad face: "Senza, you don't know, there are a lot of Diao people here, the Red Gun Society, the Miaodao Society, the housekeeping team, the self-defense group, everywhere, every village is armed, the little devils are not allowed to enter, ** is not allowed to enter, the city is better, Shangqiu and Yucheng have formed several front teams, the countryside has not opened up the situation, and only 3,000 recruits have been recruited." ”

Hua Chun didn't expect the situation in eastern Henan to be so complicated, almost every family here has guns, villages are armed, all villages are jointly defended, gongs sound, people from more than a dozen villages around them poured out, and here and its xenophobia, it should be said that they are wearing military uniforms, and they are not allowed to enter the village at all.

"In this area, there are soldiers and bandits everywhere, and the common people have long had enough." Xu Zuyi shook his head and said, "It seems that your task is not light." ”

"Or the sensitors are considerate of us," Hua Chun immediately climbed up the pole and gave Xu Zuyi and Gong Chu a few kind words for me: "I will say a few kind words for me in front of the commander of the meeting." ”

Xu Zuyi and Gong Chu couldn't help but be happy, there are really some kind of people around Zhuang Jihua, Lu Ruishan has a straight temper, Wu Ziniu is straightforward and sleek, Song Yunfei is serious and cold, Zhao Hanjie is sincere, the palace embroidery and painting are exquisite, and they actually reject people thousands of miles away.

"You Huachun, why, the task handed over by the commander has not been completed?" Xu Zuyi smiled and said: "I can't help this, you just wait to be trained." ”

"Counselor, my good counselor," Hua Chun made a bitter face and begged repeatedly: "Let me organize at least 30,000 people to support the front team and recruit 20,000 recruits, it will be a piece of cake in Chongqing, but in the case of Yudong, I went to a village yesterday, let me talk about it, and didn't even let me enter the village." If you don't let me arrest Ding, how can this task be completed? This commander is like a little daughter-in-law, afraid of everything, and wants to do everything. ”

"Little daughter-in-law? Hua Chun, are you talking about me behind your back? Zhuang Jihua's voice came from behind, Hua Chun's heart was cold, but his body turned around quickly, facing Zhuang Jihua, he immediately changed his words: "Who dares to say that the chief is a little daughter-in-law, our commander is a great man, who dares to talk nonsense, I will clean him up." ”

Zhuang Jihua slept for a while, and was in much better spirits at the moment, standing behind Hua Chun, Gong Xiuhua looked at Hua Chun, and his eyes were full of smiles.
