Chapter 299: Jiang Zhongzheng, Director of the Operations Section
When the German army launched the spring offensive, Wang Hengyue also launched his own "spring offensive"!
After Wu Tingfang, Tang Shaoyi, and Cheng Biguang, the three commanders of the Guangzhou military and political axe, returned from the "negotiations" in Nanning, their original dissatisfaction with Sun Yat-sen was even more obvious.
Subsequently, the three commanders proposed to reorganize the military and political axes.
Not too many people were surprised, as if it was a matter of course.
And Wang Hengyue was not idle, and constantly won over the members of the Department of Political Science and Yiyou Society of the Extraordinary Congress, as well as the Speaker of the House of Representatives Wu Jinglian and Vice Speaker Chu Fucheng, wanting to legally overthrow Sun through parliamentary means!
In the "Amendment to the Outline of the Political Axe Organization of the Republic of China," which was soon passed, it was stipulated that the system of one chief marshal should be changed to a collegial system of seven presidents, and the presidents of government affairs would have equal status and responsibilities. This deprived Sun Yat-sen of the power to lead the political axe in the name of the former generalissimo.
Half of the parliamentarians have been bought by Wang Hengyue, and the rest of the parliamentarians are also on the sidelines, Sun Yat-sen has no way at all!
Wang Hengyue did not want to give Sun Yat-sen any respite, and immediately proposed to immediately convene a special session of the Extraordinary National Assembly to discuss the amendment of the bill on the organization of military and political axes.
If the extraordinary congress can meet its own requirements, then he will swear allegiance to the revolutionary army and political axe in Guangzhou, sacrifice for the Northern Expedition, and fight to the death!
This is the first time Wang Hengyue has made the clearest statement on the Northern Expedition!
At this time, the Gui army had been absorbed by Wang Hengyue, the Cantonese army was unstable, and in the southwest, only Wang Hengyue's power was the strongest! Once Wang Hengyue's full support is obtained, the Guangzhou Revolutionary Army and Political Axe is bound to be powerful!
After Wang Hengyue issued a statement, Mo Rongxin, the overseer of Guangdong, who saw the wind and steered the rudder, immediately sent a telegram to welcome him, and tried his best to express that the Guangdong army would support Wang Hengyue's command!
Mo Rongxin has already expressed his position, and those parliamentarians dare not show weakness. The Extraordinary National Assembly passed a resolution as quickly as possible, inviting Wang Hengyue to enter Guangzhou to discuss the bill on the organization of the military and political axes. And Wang Hengyue quickly accepted the invitation!
On March 16, the southwest tour made Wang Hengyue arrive in Guangzhou!
As soon as Wang Hengyue stepped into Guangzhou, the atmosphere in the entire Guangdong became tense.
Yang Sen's 5th Division and Wang Zhanxu's 6th Division, which were transferred back from Tibetan Province, put on a posture of attacking Guangdong. Once Heng Shuai makes any mistakes in Guangzhou, war will inevitably come!
And what followed Wang Hengyue into Guangzhou was an elite brigade of Wang Hengyue's personal guard Hu Ben Division.
Originally, according to the suggestion of the Ding[***] generals, all the tiger divisions were to be dragged to Guangzhou with Heng Shuai, but Sun Yat-sen made a solemn protest!
"Sun Wen is afraid of me, what am I afraid of? I'll take only one brigade with me! Wang Hengyue laughed after knowing this protest: "I have a brigade of Tiger Benshi guards inside, the three commanders and those congressmen to take care of me, and Mo Rongxin wants to protect me, who can hurt me?" Even if you really want to hurt me, how can you hurt me! ”
Yang Sen immediately said: "Although Heng Shuai can rest assured, once a situation occurs, the guard brigade is enough to hold out for two days, and within two days, my fifth division will inevitably enter Guangzhou and wash the whole city in blood!" ”
Under the negotiation and mediation of each party, Sun Wen finally agreed to Wang Hengyue to bring a brigade of armed forces into Guangzhou!
Countless Ding[***] soldiers stood on both sides of the streets of Guangzhou, vigilantly watching everything around them, and the Cantonese army specially sent by Mo Rongxin to protect Wang Hengyue took on the task of guarding the periphery.
The three chiefs, the congressmen, and Sun Yat-sen, who was standing at the front, were waiting for Wang Hengyue there.
Wang Hengyue walked up steadily, saw Sun Yat-sen, and saluted: "Hello generalissimo!" ”
Sun Yat-sen didn't expect Wang Hengyue to give himself such a set, and hurriedly stretched out his hand: "Wang Xunyue, the first meritorious service of the revolution, I was like thunder to your name overseas back then, and now I finally see it, what an honor!" ”
This is the first meeting between Wang Hengyue and Sun Yat-sen, and in the seemingly warm welcome, God knows how many murderous intentions are hidden
As soon as the simple welcome was over, Sun Yat-sen left under the pretext of leaving in advance, and Wang Hengyue was led to a temporary residence by the three chiefs.
While the guards were there to check the residence, Wang Hengyue said to Mo Rongxin, who had been accompanying him: "Mo Dujun, thank you for your hard work, it seems that I am going to disturb me here for a while!" ”
"Where, where." Mo Rongxin, who was bent on scolding Wang Hengyue, said in a loud voice.
"Mo Dujun, there's one more thing to get rid of you." Wang Hengyue said suddenly.
"The patrol envoy commands."
Wang Hengyue thought for a moment: "In your Guangdong army, is there a person named Jiang Zhongzheng?" ”
"Jiang Zhongzheng?" Mo Rongxin was stunned and shook his head: "I really can't think of it." ”
Wang Hengyue groaned: "This person's name was Jiang Zhiqing before, this person graduated from Zhenwu School in Tokyo, and later changed his name to Zhongzheng, because he used a pen name called 'Kai-shek' when he was in the book, and later used it to make his own words." Well, he should now be the director or deputy director of the Operations Section of your Guangdong Army Operations Command. Well, I'm about 30 years old. ”
Mo Rongxin listened very carefully: "I have not been in the position of overseer of Guangdong for a long time, and the operational command of the Guangdong Army is not under my control, so I will definitely check when I go back, and if I find it, I will send it to the patrol envoy." ”
As he spoke, he cautiously asked, "Has this person offended the patrol envoy?" ”
"No, no." Wang Hengyue said with a smile
Mo Rongxin was bent on currying favor with Wang Hengyue, and before it was night, he really found the one named Jiang Zhongzheng.
Jiang Zhongzheng stood straight in front of the southwest patrol envoy, motionless, to be honest, he really didn't know why the famous southwest patrol envoy Wang Hengyue wanted to summon such a small combat director as himself.
Looking at the familiar face in front of him, Wang Hengyue sighed in his heart. Jiang Zhongzheng, Chiang Kai-shek, Jiang Gong, brother is sorry for you, robbing you of the position that should have been you in the future.
Since then, China has one less future chairman and one more Wang Hengshuai!
"Kai-shek, sit." Wang Hengyue's tone was cordial and authentic.
"The patrol envoy is here, and Zhongzheng does not dare to sit down." Jiang Zhongzheng said loudly.
"Sit, sit, you're welcome here." Wang Hengyue looked very polite.
Jiang Zhongzheng sat down cautiously, but only half of his butt was on the stool.
Wang Hengyue thought for a moment: "Kai-shek, do you know why I came to you?" ”
"I don't know, Ranger!" Jiang Zhongzheng stood up again, and his body was still standing straight: "What mistake did Zhongzheng make, please patrol and punish him!" ”
"Sit and talk, don't get up." Wang Hengyue smiled, and waited for Jiang Zhongzheng to sit down again, and then said, "Kai-shek, I heard that you have done a good job in the Guangdong army?" ”
Jiang Zhongzheng was stunned.
Although he has the title of director of the Operations Section of the Guangdong Army Operations Command, to be honest, because he is not a local, he joined the League back then, so he has been excluded everywhere, depressed and unwilling, where is the meaning of doing a good job?
But since the patrol envoy asked so, there must be a purpose, and Jiang Zhongzheng sat there and did not answer for a while.
Wang Hengyue smiled slightly: "I heard that when you were at the Baoding Military Academy, you once scolded an instructor angrily?" ”
The patrol made his situation so clear, Jiang Zhongzheng was a little embarrassed.
In 1906, Jiang Zhongzheng passed the competitive examination and was admitted to the Baoding Military Academy. There were more than 1,000 applicants in Zhejiang, and only 60 of them were admitted, and he was one of these 60 people.
But two things were not in his favor: he was Han Chinese, not Manchu; In addition, he had short hair, in pre-revolutionary China; This could be seen as a contempt for imperial traditions, a suspicion of rebellion, and a dangerous figure.
Most of the teachers in the school are said to be themselves. Since their country had just defeated the tsarist army, achieved a brilliant victory, and earlier also defeated the Chinese [***] team, they all appeared arrogant and did not hide their contempt for the Chinese.
Once, in a hygiene class, the teacher took out a clod of soil and compared it to China, and when he saw the bewildered looks on the students' faces, the teacher explained: "There are 400 million people in China, and the clod in his hand has exactly 400 million microorganisms. ”
Seeing this, a wave of anger suddenly rose in Chiang Kai-shek's chest, he walked forward regardless of military discipline, broke the clod of soil into eight pieces of about the same size, and looked at the instructor with angry eyes and asked: "There are 50 million people, are they also like 50 million microorganisms, parasitic in one-eighth of this clod?" ”
The instructor was dumbfounded by the questioning, but after a while, he pointed his finger at Chiang Kai-shek's braided head and threatened him: "You are a revolutionary!" ”
Chiang Kai-shek immediately said loudly: "First answer whether what I said is right or not, please don't divert the question!" ”
In military schools, cadets are not allowed to do this. For Chiang Kai-shek, he took a big risk. He may have been kicked out of the military school for this; There is also the possibility of secret arrest.
He was summoned to the principal's office, and as luck would have it, the principal felt that he had his own reasons for doing so, so he only reprimanded him harshly, and did not dig into it, and the matter was over.
This can be regarded as one thing that Jiang Zhongzheng is more proud of.
Wang Hengyue said with a smile: "Okay, okay, it is said that there are 50 million people, and they are like 50 million microorganisms, parasitic in one-eighth of this clod, which sounds relieving." Jiang Zhongzheng, I am short of people at hand now, are you interested in coming to me to help me do things? ”
Jiang Zhongzheng froze for a moment.
Did you hear it wrong? The patrol envoy wants to go over and help him do things? Who doesn't know that Wang Hengyue, who has a heavy army in his hands and looks at the world, is the most powerful faction in the southwest? Now he actually wants to go over and help him do things himself?
At this moment, Jiang Zhongzheng almost suspected that he was in a dream.
"How, willing or unwilling to do that?" Wang Hengyue's voice sounded again.
Jiang Zhongzheng stood up with a "hoof": "Patrol envoy, Jiang Zhongzheng is willing to serve the patrol envoy!" ”
