"You have done a good job, there are not many Whampoa classmates who can maintain the revolutionary fighting spirit like you, they are confused by power and wealth," Chiang Kai-shek said slowly and calmly, with the pleased eyes of the elders: "However, I want to make some adjustments to the personnel of the Southwest Development Team and Yucheng," he sighed and said, "I know that you have tight personnel there, but there is no way." The experience of Yucheng should not only stay in Sichuan, but should be extended to the whole country. You also have to transfer a group of cadres and middle-level cadres to Hubei and Jiangxi. Teng Jie, Tang Zong, and Yang Changqing all have to be transferred out. Teng Zhuo was appointed mayor of Wuhan and director of the Wuhan Provincial Party Department, Tang Zong came to my side, and Yang Changqing was appointed mayor of Nanjing Special City. ”

Zhuang Jihua understood in his heart that Chiang Kai-shek was going to use his strength to prepare to liquidate the Blue Coat Society. Yang Yongtai and Tang Zong are not his core personnel, and it is nothing to leave, but Teng Jie is very reluctant, this is a talent, good at handling party affairs and government affairs.

He hadn't figured out how to reply to Chiang Kai-shek, but he heard Chiang Kai-shek say again: "After several years of practice, the Sanming Cooking Volunteer Youth League has become relatively mature, and it can also be promoted to the whole country, you see if Kang Ze can shoulder this burden." ”

Zhuang Jihua hesitated and said: "Principal, Kang Ze has never dealt with the affairs of the Three Youth League, the Three Youth League is mainly in charge of Teng Jie, I suggest Teng Jie, he is more familiar." ”

When he was still in Xi'an, Chiang Kai-shek decided to adjust the political scene in Nanjing, and Yang Yongtai's warning became a reality, thanks to the withdrawal of the leading officer from the Blue Coat Society, otherwise I really don't know what would have happened.

Zhuang Jihua saw Chiang Kai-shek slightly closed his eyes and pondered, he was not sure of Chiang Kai-shek's true thoughts for a while, so he tentatively asked: "Does the principal want to make adjustments to the career of the people in Nanjing?" ”

Chiang Kai-shek nodded slightly, and Zhuang Jihua hesitated and decided to speak for He Jinhan and Deng Wenyi: "Principal, the students don't know whether to say something or not. ”

"You say, you say." Chiang Kai-shek opened his eyes and stared at him and said, "How did you become stumbling, this is not you." ”

Zhuang Jihua sighed, he felt that tonight's conversation was very difficult, just now Chiang Kai-shek wanted to transfer his people, he instinctively wanted to refuse, but the words changed when they came to his mouth, he could not give Chiang Kai-shek the impression of being proud of his achievements, nor could he leave the impression that Yucheng was his territory and the southwest development team was his development team.

"I know that the principal is very dissatisfied with Junshan, and I also think that what they did this time is inappropriate," Zhuang Jihua pondered: "But the principal had a lot of people who were in the main battle in Nanjing, including Dai Jitao, Chief Instructor He, and Chen Lifu, they were all in the main battle; If the principal treats Junshan too badly, will it cause them doubts; Secondly, students think that the main battle does not mean that they are separated from the principal, and the Blue Coat Club has penetrated into all corners of the society, forming a strong social influence, once the scope of disposal is too large, it will seriously affect the operation of the Blue Coat Club, and then affect the stability of the political axe. ”

Chiang Kai-shek looked at Zhuang Jihua and frowned and asked, "Are you going around in circles to intercede for He Jinhan and Deng Wenyi?" They are not defective. ”

Zhuang Jihua did not answer directly but changed his approach: "No, I want to say that although the principal is back now, the hearts of the people in Nanjing and Xi'an are unstable, and they are all staring at the principal, so the principal's every move now will affect the political situation." ”

Chiang Kai-shek nodded, with a look of appreciation on his face: "Cultural Revolution, it seems that you are fully mature, after Yang Changqing and them are transferred out of Yucheng, the candidate to replace them, you should think about it and report it to me." In addition, I would like to set up a Southwest Pacification Office to govern the party, government, and military in Sichuan, Yunnan, and Guizhou, and you will serve as the director. ”

Chiang Kai-shek's words shocked Zhuang Jihua, he didn't expect Chiang Kai-shek to be so generous, not only to hand over all the power of Yucheng to him, but also to give him the entire southwest.

"Gao Ming, the principal is clever in this move," of course this big gift, but Zhuang Jihua didn't want to accept it completely, together with the War of Resistance, he was going to unify the army on the battlefield, this director can't be the director, but this director is very important, and it must be controlled in the hands of his people or people he can influence: "Integrate the resources of the southwest, speed up the development of the southwest, and build a stable base for the War of Resistance, wonderful." For the sake of the country, it is incumbent on the students to do so, but once the Anti-Japanese War begins, the students have to go to the front line, so this director is originally best Mr. Yang Changqing, but since he is leaving, the students recommend Mr. Yan or Zaitian. ”

Zhuang Jihua had been observing Chiang Kai-shek's expression when he reported these two names, and sure enough, Chiang Kai-shek frowned slightly, and after a while, he shook his head: "Their prestige is not enough, you can suppress Liu Xiang and them, neither of them can suppress them." Chiang Kai-shek thought for a moment and said: "The mission of the General Staff Committee has ended, He Guoguang is the director of the Southwest Pacification Office, you and Zheng are the deputy directors, and the policy guidelines are formulated by you." The Staff Corps and the Einsatzgruppen were merged into the Southwest Development Team, and the mayor of Yucheng was Li Zhilong. ”

"Then I will change the candidate for the director of the Sichuan Provincial Party Department." The image of Lu Shanming appeared in Zhuang Jihua's mind, and Chiang Kai-shek nodded for permission but asked, "Who are you going to use?" ”

"Fang Jin, former secretary general of the Sichuan Provincial Party Department." Zhuang Jihua immediately replied: "Lu Shanming is to be an official, everything floats on the top, he doesn't know anything about the below, and he doesn't want to understand, the cadre standard of the Southwest Development Team is to do practical things, not to be vain, Sichuan's reform is far from complete, such a person will not only delay the reform, but also affect the officialdom atmosphere that is gradually improving." ”

Zhuang Jihua's reasons are more sufficient, and Chiang Kai-shek doesn't say anything anymore, Zhuang Jihua wants to get Lu Shanming down, he already knows, Tang Zong and Kang Ze have reported to him.

"Send Ren Juewu back." Chiang Kai-shek suddenly added another sentence in the end, Zhuang Jihua was stunned for a moment, and then thought that this might be reported by Dai Li.

"Principal, the two of them didn't do anything, as soon as they entered Yucheng, they were sent to Geyue Mountain by me." Zhuang Jihua said with some concern, strictly speaking, there was nothing wrong with the two of them, he didn't give them a chance to perform at all.

"I know, He Jiwu, you send it back to He Jingzhi, he naturally knows what it means." Chiang Kai-shek said lightly: "Ren Juewu is different, he is a bold person, and he is also a person with backbones in the back of his head; Defeat one, two, three, contact four, five, six, rely on seven, eight, nine; It doesn't count if your bones have grown stiff, you have killed people in Nanjing, if you hadn't detained him, hum. ”

Chiang Kai-shek let out two contemptuous sounds from his nostrils, Zhuang Jihua's heart trembled, it seemed that Chiang Kai-shek was extremely resentful of the Blue Coat Society, and He Jinhan and Deng Wenyi were also extremely angry.

After being silent for a while, Chiang Kai-shek noticed that Zhuang Jihua was both surprised and puzzled, so he said angrily: "You are in Sichuan, no matter what happens in Nanjing, how do you know their ghost eyes, this Ren Juewu and others have a private plan, and they have to rely on the students of the 789th phase of Huangpu to hold the 456th period, and hit the 123rd period." Hmph, I want to fly if my wings are not hard, it's ridiculous! When He Jinhan and them planned the Blue Coat Society, I warned them not to form small groups and not to make splits, but as a result, in less than four years, they split, you fight me, I fight you, everything is as I expected. ”

Zhuang Jihua sighed in his heart, you yourself are engaged in small groups, not only in the party and the army, but also among the Huangpu classmates, they are just learning from each other. Zhuang Jihua hesitated but still persuaded: "Junshan is very prestigious among the Huangpu students, if the handling is too heavy, it is not conducive to the unity of the Huangpu students, please think twice." ”

Before the Xi'an Incident, He Jinhan had a very close relationship with Chiang Kai-shek, and Chiang Kai-shek appreciated him very much, allowing him to occupy the high position of the director of political training of the Ministry of Military Affairs, and He Jinhan also spared no effort to support Chiang Kai-shek; Zhuang Jihua didn't think that He Jinhan wanted to put Chiang Kai-shek to death this time, he wanted to speculate, but he didn't grasp the degree, so he went too far, and finally he couldn't step down. With He Xinhan's talent, when Zhuang Jihua expressed his position, He Yingqin withdrew, Yu Jishi Hu Zongnan expressed his position one after another, and finally even Song Xilian supported the peace talks, he would not know that the war was no longer possible, but he couldn't turn back.

"Hmm." Chiang Kai-shek's nostrils snorted heavily, and Zhuang Jihua felt that he couldn't talk about it anymore today, and it wouldn't be of much use to talk about it any longer, so he got up and said goodbye to Chiang Kai-shek.

The next day, Chiang Kai-shek ordered the Lanyi Society's organ newspaper "China Yuebao" to cease publication, arrest the editor-in-chief Gu Xiping, and put Dai Li in charge of censoring them.

Chaotian Palace was confused, to say that these two people did not play much role in the war and peace issue, Gu Xiping could still reluctantly put on the main battle remarks, but Ren Juewu did not play any role, as soon as he entered Sichuan, he was controlled by Zhuang Jihua, and he did not play a role at all, but he did not expect that he would be arrested first.

Nanjing officialdom nervously waited for Chiang Kai-shek's further actions, but they did not expect that Chiang Kai-shek would return to his hometown in Xikou with Duanna Zhuang Jihua and others after the New Year, and announced that he was going home to recuperate.

In Xikou, Zhuang Jihua accompanied Chiang Kai-shek to visit the tomb of Chiang's mother, when Zhuang Jihua saluted Chiang's mother in a proper manner, Chiang Kai-shek accompanied him according to traditional Chinese etiquette, and thanked him after the ceremony.

The mountains and rivers at the mouth of the river seem to make Chiang Kai-shek feel a lot better, and the injury on his back seems to be a lot easier, walking in the mountains every day, and then reading in the study, Zhuang Jihua accompanies him every day, the two chat a wide range, Zhuang Jihua found that Chiang Kai-shek has read a lot of books of the ancient Chinese, whenever he talks about this thing, he always can't pick it up.

"During the Cultural Revolution, you should read more traditional Chinese books, such as Zizhi Tongjian, Shiji, Zeng Wenzheng's official book, after all, Western things are Western, not necessarily suitable for China." Chiang Kai-shek apparently also discovered Zhuang Jihua's shortcomings in this regard.

"Headmaster, it's not that students don't read them, students also know that these books are good things, but on the one hand, there are too many things to calm down at all, on the other hand, you also know that I can't do ancient Chinese, and those who see it will have a headache, if only someone translated it into vernacular." Zhuang Jihua showed a painful look, which made Chiang Kai-shek feel a little funny.

"And what books do you usually read?" Chiang Kai-shek asked casually with a cane and along the stone road in the mountains.

"Western economics, Hegel's philosophical foundations, Marx's capital, Sun Tzu's Art of War, the theory of war, Zeng Hu Zhibing's quotations, and the rest of the books at home are probably Yin Shu's." In the past few years, Zhuang Jihua has only read these books, and he is too busy, and he has a lot of things to do every day.

"Do you still read Marx's Capital?" Chiang Kai-shek turned his head to look at him, and dared to admit in front of Chiang Kai-shek, I am afraid that among the Whampoa classmates, there is probably only Zhuang Jihua.

"Well, Capital is Marx's philosophical masterpiece, covering all of Marx's theories, that is, covering all the theories of the Communist Party," Zhuang Jihua said very seriously: "Although I argued with Wushan back then, I didn't actually know the GCD people, their theories, their thoughts, and why they killed Wushan." ”

Speaking of Jiang Xianyun, Zhuang Jihua was a little sad, if he was here, now he could hand over everything in the southwest to him, and he would only be in charge of training.

Speaking of Jiang Xianyun, Chiang Kai-shek also regretted that this outstanding student had fallen like this, if he was under his command, the position of the Political Training Office would definitely be his.

"What did you learn from watching it?" Chiang Kai-shek returned to moving forward, he was not at all worried that Zhuang Jihua would be "poisoned" after seeing it, if he was "poisoned", he would have been hit in Guangzhou as early as possible.

"I feel that some of his things are wrong, but some things are also right, but they are also contradictory." Zhuang Jihua said: "For example, the primitive accumulation of capital is bloody, which is correct, but this cannot explain the righteous surname of capital accumulation in Soviet Russia; Marx cleverly analyzed the process of profit generation and distribution, which helped me to understand the process of social production and to make policies. ”

"Aren't there any other books?" Chiang Kai-shek said: "In fact, governing the country is still the work of our ancestors, let me tell you, as long as the general knowledge of governing the country is clear, there is no problem in governing the country." ”

"Oh, then I'll go find a vernacular text and read it." Zhuang Jihua didn't want to argue on this issue, so he said with a smile.

Chiang Kai-shek laughed twice: "Isn't your wife a teacher, let her teach." ”

"That's still forget it, since my girl came into the world, she has been in charge of the girl more than me, it turns out that some people say that the child shares half of the wife's love, I still don't believe it, now I have to believe it." Zhuang Jihua is a little unconscionable, in Liu Yinshu's heart, he is always the first, followed by the girl.

Speaking of the child, Chiang Kai-shek's mood darkened, his shoulders trembled, his figure paused, and Zhuang Jihua keenly felt it.

"Headmaster, is there no news from Jingguo yet?" Zhuang Jihua asked cautiously.

Chiang Kai-shek shook his head, Zhuang Jihua thought for a while and said: "Judging from the Xi'an incident, Soviet Russia intends to recognize the president's position as the leader of the country and is willing to improve relations with us, so it is better to let Jiang Tinghuang inquire with them." The principal wants to let Jingguo come back as soon as possible, in fact, the Three Youth League handed it over to him, I'm afraid it is more appropriate. ”

"Oh, why?" Chiang Kai-shek was a little curious at this time, he stopped and turned to look at Zhuang Jihua.

"I have always been very envious of the Communist Party of China, their organization is very strong, and our organization is much worse, Jingguo has been in Soviet Russia for many years, and is very familiar with the Communist Party of C, if he can bring in the good part of the Communist Party and eliminate the bad part, this is not a good thing for our party to start with, and the Three Youth League is the best platform for him to practice." Zhuang Jihua said with a straight face.

After listening to this, Chiang Kai-shek stared at the distance and nodded for a long time: "You are right, let Jiang Tinghuang inquire about Soviet Russia." ”
