Section 6 The Root Cause (2)

Hearing Zhuang Jihua's list of positions, Li Zhilong was a little dumbfounded, before he didn't think of the need to use Chiang Kai-shek's place, he always thought that he was a navy, and had nothing to do with the army, and it was enough to have Wang Jingwei's support, but now he thought that he still had something to do with Chiang Kai-shek, at least the post of commander of the Guangzhou garrison could be managed to Humen Fortress and other forts.

"Well, you're right, I'll find time to see the headmaster." Li Zhilong nodded in agreement. Zhuang Jihua saw his reluctance, and wanted to slap him twice, and then screamed at him by his ear.

"What are you waiting for, go now, the principal was assassinated yesterday, shouldn't you, as the principal's student, go and see" Zhuang Jihua said impatiently.

Li Zhilong exhaled a cigarette and said reluctantly: "I still have something." ”

"Nothing matters, let's go together, and I'll say goodbye to the headmaster by the way." Zhuang Jihua stood up resolutely, pulled Li Zhilong and walked out the door.

"Cultural Revolution, Cultural Revolution, I really have something to do in the afternoon." Li Zhilong begged for mercy and begged Zhuang Jihua, Pan Huiqin clamored to go on the warship to visit, and made an appointment to pick her up this afternoon.

"Zaitian, if you don't go today, there will be no friend of me Zhuang Jihua in the future." Zhuang Jihua said to Li Zhilong very seriously that he was determined to pull Li Zhilong away today, and the effect of going there today would be a hundred times better than going back to Li Zhilong if he had something to do.

Seeing that Zhuang Jihua did not hesitate to threaten to break off relations, Li Zhilong was really a little scared, and he now cared about Zhuang Jihua's friend: "Okay, good, just go." Don't worry. ”

Chiang Kai-shek was very happy to see Li Zhilong and Zhuang Jihua coming back in a row, especially when Li Zhilong came back, he had not come back since he left the party army, but he did not expect that he was assassinated yesterday, and Li Zhilong came back today, which shows that he still has his own in his heart.

He personally poured tea for Li Zhilong with a smile on his face, and asked for warmth, and especially mentioned Pan Huiqin, asked Li Zhilong when he would get married, but asked Li Zhilong a big red face, and finally joked Zhuang Jihua, asking him to learn from Li Zhilong, and finally he asked Zhuang Jihua what Chairman Wang's opinion on the reorganization today, Zhuang Jihua truthfully reported Wang Jingwei's reaction to Chiang Kai-shek, and explained his idea of closing the customs to Chiang Kai-shek, Chiang Kai-shek couldn't help laughing after hearing it, and said yes in a loud voice.

Seeing Chiang Kai-shek's appearance, Zhuang Jihua knew that it was the right thing to bring Li Zhilong here today, and Chiang Kai-shek had never laughed like this in front of his students. Li Zhilong was very happy to see Chiang Kai-shek, and he also put forward some ideas for rectifying the navy and prohibiting smuggling.

"Meet, Cultural Revolution, tell me what you think, what is Zaitian's idea." Chiang Kai-shek asked Zhuang Jihua with a smile.

"The students thought the idea was very good, but they had to be careful in their implementation. The various forces in the navy are intertwined, and they move the whole body when they touch it, and they enter the navy alone, like a lone tiger entering a pack of wolves, and they will be devoured by a pack of wolves if they are not careful. Zhuang Jihua said solemnly.

"I am in the light, banning smuggling, rightly, what is there to fear." Li Zhilong argued.

Chiang Kai-shek secretly said in his heart that Li Zhilong was still young and vigorous, far less stable than Zhuang Jihua.

"There are many reasons for smuggling in the navy, some of which are filled with personal pockets, and some of which are insufficient to supplement military spending. Chiang Kai-shek said to Li Zhilong in an enlightened tone: "At present, many generals in the navy have protected the prime minister when Chen Jiongming betrayed, and they are people who have made meritorious contributions, and we lack naval talents, so we must both rectify and protect." ”

Zhuang Jihua was greatly impressed when he heard this, Chiang Kai-shek's words were fair and reasonable, he was not partial, and he was quite far-sighted. Unexpectedly, Li Zhilong got into the tip of the horns.

"Principal, the students believe that in troubled times, naval smuggling has become a rampant trend, according to the student survey, most of them are smuggled by four generals, how to supplement military spending, and Chairman Wang also believes that it should be rectified."

Zhuang Jihua knew that it was bad, and secretly said bitterly in his heart, Li Zhilong, if you have a different opinion, just say your opinion, why do you want to involve Wang Jingwei, isn't this using Wang Jingwei to suppress Chiang Kai-shek.

Sure enough, Chiang Kai-shek's face changed slightly, but he quickly returned to normal, and he smiled and said: "That's good, that's good, you let it go, I support you." ”

"Thank you, Headmaster." Li Zhilong said neither humbly nor arrogantly.

"Principal, the students will be fresh later, I don't know what the principal has to say." Zhuang Jihua reluctantly said goodbye to Chiang Kai-shek, he really regretted not leaving earlier.

"It's nothing, I've already said what I should say, Cultural Revolution, you did a good job, be careful on the road." Chiang Kai-shek said lightly, but did not mention Li Zhilong at all.

The two saluted Chiang Kai-shek and turned to leave the office, Chiang Kai-shek stared at Li Zhilong's back, lost in thought, Wang Jingwei's hand stretched out so quickly.

After going downstairs, Zhuang Jihua stared at Li Zhilong in a daze, and looked at Li Zhilong with hair. The second monk Li Zhilong was puzzled and asked stupidly, "What's wrong?" What are you looking at? ”

"I really shouldn't have brought you here today." Zhuang Jihua sighed, seeing that Li Zhilong still didn't understand, he couldn't break it: "Zaitian, listen to me, you'd better come here to see the principal once a month, no, half a month, every half a month, okay?" ”

Li Zhilong saw that Zhuang Jihua didn't look like joking with him, but he didn't know what was wrong, he felt that he had a good conversation with Chiang Kai-shek today, Zhuang Jihua was talking and laughing just now, but he didn't expect that after going out, Zhuang Jihua would judge the two.

"Isn't that right?" Li Zhilong asked in confusion.

Zhuang Jihua didn't know what to say, he knew the historical result, but he couldn't save it, that kind of taste was really painful. Zhuang Jihua opened his mouth, and finally sighed: "Zaitian, remember my words, so that you can do it yourself." ”

After speaking, Zhuang Jihua turned around and went to the intelligence department, Li Zhilong stood there depressedly for a while, only to look at his watch, and seeing that the time had passed four o'clock, he hurriedly took two guards and went straight to the School of Law and Politics.

Zhao Hanjie saw Zhuang Jihua enter the door, and happily called "section chief", Hua Chunzheng buried himself in sorting out documents, heard Zhao Hanjie's call, first thought it was He Jinhan, but when he raised his eyes, it was Zhuang Jihua, and he wanted to say hello, but saw Zhuang Jihua's face gloomy, and quickly lowered his head to do things in a muffled voice, as Zhuang Jihua's old subordinate, he already knew Zhuang Jihua's surname Xi, and it was best not to provoke him at this time.

"Junshan," Zhuang Jihua walked into He Jinhan's office: "I have an idea. ”

"You really scared me, you can't be quieter in the future." He Zhenhan said dissatisfiedly, he was spreading out a dossier, thinking about a piece of paper full of words inside, when Zhuang Jihua's voice interrupted his train of thought.

"Oh, I'm sorry." Only then did Zhuang Jihua notice that he had interfered with He Jinhan's work, and he was busy apologizing, but his tone did not have the sincerity to apologize at all: "The assassination of the principal shows that the work of the Intelligence Division has major flaws and must be improved. ”

He Jinhan put down the file in his hand, stood up and said: "Yes, this is our mistake, how to improve, I am also thinking about this problem, you can tell me what you think." ”

"On the one hand, self-protection; On the other hand, go out. Zhuang Jihua said resolutely: "Self-protection is to strengthen the protection of the principal and party representatives, which goes without saying; To go out is to vigorously develop intelligence work, expand personnel, and send our people around certain targets to listen to their movements. ”

He Jinhan asked puzzledly: "What does it mean to send our people around some targets during the Cultural Revolution?" ”

"It's around those on the right." Zhuang Jihua gritted his teeth and said: "The assassination of the principal must be related to them, but who is their target next?" Principal or party representative? So we have to keep them on the lookout. ”

He Jinhan's face turned pale suddenly, and he hurriedly closed the door: "You are crazy, who are those people, either members of the Central Committee or army commanders and division commanders, who we can monitor at will?" No, no. ”

"Junshan, do you know? The principal and the party representatives are the two pillars that hold up the Huangpu building, and if any of them has an accident, will the building still stand? Zhuang Jihua said solemnly: "Actually, what I'm most worried about is not the principal, after all, the principal is a soldier, and the place he often goes in and out is either a military school or a military camp; The party representatives are different, there are three religions and nine streams in the places that are often frequented, and there are all kinds of characters, and if something happens, you and I will regret it. ”

In the past two days, Zhuang Jihua has been recalling history, in addition to the Zhongshan ship, that is, the Northern Expedition, and 4.12, there is no information about Liao Zhongkai at all, but it is deduced from the Zhongshan ship incident that Liao Zhongkai should have died at that time, in this case, Liao Zhongkai will die within half a year, but Liao Zhongkai is not sick, then his death should be an unnatural death, combined with the assassination of Chiang Kai-shek, he has six points of certainty that Liao Zhongkai died in the assassination.

He Jinhan thought about it and said: "Cultural Revolution, you are right, but you know how many people there are in the intelligence department, and we don't have enough manpower at all." ”

"I've thought about it, we have been looking for candidates in the Whampoa Military Academy before, although this method is safe, but it also hinders the rapid growth of the intelligence department, so I think we can expand the scope of selection to Sun Society, as long as it is Sun Society, anyone who is Sun Academy can accept the selection, regardless of whether he is a soldier or not."

As he spoke, Zhuang Jihua took out a list from his pocket, which he had drawn up last night.

"You look at the list, I think we should keep them all under control."

He Jinhan took the list and looked at it, his pale face turned snow-white, and he muttered, "Crazy, you are completely crazy." ”
