Chapter 10 Aftermath

“…… The present Nationalist Government of Nanking will be organized by the Chinese Kuomintang Party, which will unite with the established political power and political parties, together with the wise people of the whole country. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 Externally, we will strive to sort out the good relations between China and Japan, and we will also make friendly relations with our friendly countries, and internally, we will strive to build after the war, improve politics, and relieve the suffering of the people. ”

When she got up and was dressing up, Song Meiling heard a speech on the radio, this person spoke Cantonese Mandarin, and the Cantonese accent was particularly obvious when she said 'to the inside', saying 'to Rui' instead of 'to the inside'. At first, Song Meiling thought that the Central Radio Station had invited Cantonese people to give speeches, but when she heard 'sorting out the good relations between China and Japan', she instantly understood: This was an enemy station, and the speaker was probably Wang Zhaoming.

"Darlene," the room was playing on the enemy station, and her husband was not on the second floor, but in the glass window attic on the third floor, where he was holding his steps until Song Meiling appeared.

"Hmm. You're up. Chang Kaishen glanced at his wife and stopped, asked and started to walk again, but he stopped again after taking two steps. Just now, Lifu came to report that Wang Zhaoming was dead. ”

"Wang Zhaoming?!" Song Meiling was taken aback, no wonder her husband didn't handle official business and kept listening to the enemy station.

"Yes." Chang Kaishen nodded, wanting to continue to explain but feeling powerless, he sat on the rattan chair on the side, and said for a long time: "I didn't expect him to die like this......"

"Then we," her husband said with some regret, but Song Meiling thought about political interests, she said: "If the news is accurate, then we should immediately publicize it to the outside world to boost the morale of the army and the people." Even if it's just an injury, it's a good thing. ”

"It was impossible to be wounded, and if he had not been rescued by the Japanese, he would have drowned." Chang Kaishen said, and the last sentence was a little difficult for him to say: "It wasn't Lifu who did it, it was Lifu who provided intelligence to the navy, and the navy sank the cruise ship he was on." ”

"Is it the Navy?" Song Meiling was stunned, she didn't quite understand why the navy wanted to snipe Wang Jingwei, until she saw the telegram that Chang Kaishen had brought over: "Our boat has sunk the cruise ship Fengtian Pill on which Wang was traveling at 7:58 this morning, and after a cursory inspection, Wang was not found among the survivors on the sea. This fang has been executed. U-38 Acting Captain Major Lin Xiangguang. Raise. ’

The telegram was very short, but the four words had been punished, but it was very powerful, and Song Meiling also sat on the rattan chair, thinking about what political consequences this matter would bring. Regardless of the occupied areas, the navy will certainly adhere to the principle of independence and self-determination even more if it has made such a meritorious achievement, and if the government continues to suppress it, it will be no more effective at home, and it will certainly be criticized by overseas Chinese abroad, and the most important thing is that once the navy issues bonds to the outside world, all the donations that originally flowed to the government will flow to the navy......

"Darlene, since this matter was planned by Liv and the navy together, then this news should be announced by the government and the navy together. This matter is related to the prestige of the national government at home and abroad, and it must not be sloppy. Song Meiling said. In order to express their condolences, the government should immediately search the list of passengers of the Fengtian Pill and provide relief to the victims. ”

Song Meiling said that her response was not enough, and she corrected: "This matter should still be announced by us, so ......"

Since ten o'clock in the morning to get Chen Lifu's secret protection, Chang Kaishen's spirit has been a little trance, Wang Jingwei he had thought that he was dead, but now that Wang is dead, he has some inexplicable sighs. At this time, his wife talked about public opinion, and he suddenly found that after this, the navy was afraid that it would not be able to suppress it, but it would also be suppressed if it could not be suppressed, and as long as the navy remained unique and still did not recognize the orthodoxy of the national government, the government would continue to identify the navy as a rebel.

Chang Kaishen, who came to his senses, began to instruct the National Propaganda Office to immediately hold a press conference to seize control of public opinion, but the New York Volunteer Navy General Headquarters was gloomy, especially Lin Guogeng, who had advised Li Kongrong not to return to China at the beginning, was even more remorseful. Now it's okay, Wang Jingwei is dead, but Li Kongrong is also injured. It is difficult to operate in the submarine, and it will take several days to get to Manila, and in case of accidents, the navy will be left without a commander.

"Any other news?" Lin Guogeng looked at Yan Shouhua in the General Staff Office, and communications were now under his jurisdiction.

"It should be the radio silence, no news for the time being." Yan Shouhua looked a little heavy. According to the U-38's call, the shell hit the upper part of the shell, and although the shell did not penetrate the shell due to the angle and type of shell, the steel plate that cracked on the inside of the shell hit Li Kongrong's right cheek. He immediately fell into a coma, there were no X-rays on the boat, and the military doctor was very worried that the steel piece would penetrate into the skull and did not dare to remove it. Because there were Japanese ships nearby, the call was not long, but the situation that could be described was terrifying, the fleet without a commander could be reappointed, and there was no one in the Chinese volunteer navy without Li Kongrong to take his place.

"Hey, okay, what kind of people to save." Lin Guogeng finally held back this sentence from his heart.

"Report, Chongqing has held a press conference to announce that Wang Jingwei was killed in an attack." Coming in was Major Chen Pan, chief of the Navy's communications section, who received news from Chongqing.

"It's shameless." Yan Shouhua scolded very angrily. The ship was sunk by the navy, what does it have to do with Chongqing?

"We delayed it." Lin Guogeng has always been worried about Li Kongrong's injury, and only after hearing the report did he remember that this credit was quite important. He handed over the telegram from the U-38 submarine to Chen Pan: "The existing staff office will polish it, and then send him out immediately." Hansheng's injuries were also reported, and it is important to emphasize that he was wounded by enemy artillery fire in order to save those who had fallen into the water, regardless of the danger. ”

"It's not good. Brother Xiang Xin ......, "Yan Shouhua is worried about Lin Xianxi, since he participated in the inaugural meeting of the Navy, his health has deteriorated. The Western doctor didn't say anything, but the old Chinese medicine doctor in Chinatown said that it shouldn't be spring, and if it was announced that Li Kongrong was injured, Lin Xianxin would definitely aggravate his condition if he saw the news from the newspaper.

"Then don't say you're hurt, just save people." Lin Guogeng said, "Anyway, we have to be more detailed than what Chongqing said, and the content should be more detailed, and readers will know the truth of the news on both sides as soon as they compare it." ”

"Yes, sir." Chen Pan saluted and went out. The current method is that the Fuqing is roaming outside the territorial waters of the United States, and the radio station for external communication is placed on the Fuqing, and the communication between the Fuqing and New York can be solved by plain language radio or shortwave.

"Extra! Extra! The sea god spear Li Fengtian pill sank in the Yellow Sea, and Wang Jingwei was buried in the belly of the fish for the country. Extra! Extra! The sea god spear Fengtian Pill sank in the Yellow Sea, and Wang Jingwei was buried in the belly of the fish for the country......"

In the whole of China, the Shanghai Concession is the most well-informed place, as soon as Chongqing held a press conference, the major newspapers in Shanghai got the news, but Chongqing released very little, only stating that Wang Jingwei was buried in the sea, and at the same time announcing that the state government would give compensation to the passengers who sank with the ship, and there was no other news after that. Even if the newspaper added Wang Jingwei's past deeds on the outside of the number, there was very little content. Fortunately, at this time, the intelligence of the Navy also came, which not only contained the latitude and longitude of the sinking of the Mukden Pill, but also the planning outline of U-38 for this operation, and the code name given by the Volunteer Navy Command for this operation: Spear of the Sea God.

"Dean, please see, this is today's newspaper." At the Japanese Naval Hospital in Hongkou, Shanghai, Luo Junqiang, who licked his face, sent the issue of the Damei Evening News to Liang Hongzhi's ship. He was also one of the lucky survivors of the Bontenmaru, and it is said that he was lucky enough to hold a garbage can, otherwise he would have died. After Wang Jingwei died and the Qingdao Conference was postponed, Liang Hongzhi was still the number one leader of the Restoration Government, and he immediately made a 180-degree turn and frequently made a plea of goodwill to Liang Hongzhi on a Japanese destroyer.

"Ahem......" Liang Hongzhi lost his soul since the morning, and the Japanese rescued him and quickly sent him to the nearest Hongkou Naval Hospital, but he is still reluctant to speak. Chen Qun next to him coughed lightly a few times and said, "Brother Junqiang, the dean is not young, and he was frightened in the morning, so you should put this newspaper here first." ”

Unlike Liang Hongzhi, Chen Qun was very excited on this day, Wang Jingwei died, and in the future, the Nanjing government would have the final say with Liang Hongzhi, even if the Japanese wanted to get rid of their own people, they were helpless, and they could no longer find qualified people to replace them.

"Yes, yes. The little brother will ...... first" Luo Junqiang was talking, and suddenly there was a cry outside, this voice was familiar to everyone, it was Chen Bijun's. At noon, when she heard the news of Wang Jingwei's death, she fainted and fell to the ground, so she was also sent to the naval hospital, and after waking up, she was in pain, scolding Chang Kaishen for being ruthless, and scolding the navy and Li Hansheng for recognizing the dog as his father, and finally scolding Zhou Fohai for harming others and himself, and the whole hospital was messed up by her.

"Luo Junqiang, Luo Junqiang! Don't run! Didn't you say that it was foolproof, exchange me Zhaoming, and return me Zhaoming! Chen Bijun appeared in the corridor like a ghost with her hair scattered and bare feet, and she finally saw an acquaintance, so she ran over regardless of it. Luo Junqiang saw her coming and had to flee quickly, for fear of being entangled by her.

Luo Junqiang ran away, Chen Bijun chased after him, Chen Qun smiled when he saw this, he closed the door tightly, picked up the issue of the beautiful evening newspaper and shook it, and said: "If the other brothers don't cheer up, this executive dean is Wen Zongyao's." ”

The Executive Yuan is the chairman of the government, the first important position of the new government, Liang Hongzhi, who lost his soul, finally had some spirit when he heard this, and he said: "Let him go, my brother is already afraid after this." ”

"Are you really willing to do it?" Chen Qun stared at him and smiled, and when he saw his intentions, he said: "Wang Zhaoming's vote is just a bet on the two ends of the Kuomintang. The leak of Fengtian Pill's whereabouts this time must have been leaked by one of us, otherwise how coincidental would Li Hansheng know about Fengtian Pill as soon as he went to sea? You see, this newspaper said that it was the information provided by the Central Committee to Li Hansheng. ”

In order to snatch the credit of the assassination, the navy and Chongqing said all the things that should not be said. Chen Qun said: "Aren't you just worried about the navy, don't forget that you are from Changle, and the villagers will beg Li Hansheng to let you go." ”

Liang Hongzhi was indeed frightened by Li Hansheng's submarine, and he finally stopped lying down when he heard Chen Qun say this, and said: "In order to kill Wang Jingwei, the entire ship was sunk, and hundreds of people died." Why did he, Li Hansheng, spare me alone? ”

"You're from Fujian, aren't Wang Jingwei, why did he want to kill you?" Chen Qun asked rhetorically. "The Guoli Party is also merciful to its own people, you see that he treated those people in the old Beiyang, Tang Shaochuan was killed just by seeing the Japanese. What about Wu Ziyu? Dead is inexplicable. For the sake of today's plan, the Japanese will really be defeated in the future, and we will have no other way out but to join the navy. ”

Chen Qun asked rhetorically and said this passage close to Liang Hongzhi's ear, using Fujian dialect, the voice was very small, and Liang Hongzhi couldn't hear it if he wasn't careful. After hearing what he said, Liang Hongzhi looked at Chen Qun and was puzzled, and said, "But who of us... Meet Lee Han-sung? ”

"Isn't Heng Zeng able to know each other?" Chen Qun said: "The navy not only fell out with the Guoli Party, but also turned his face with Chen Shaokuan, and those old Beiyang generals in Fuzhou all said that Li Hansheng was good." ”

'Bang bang ......' was about to be at the right point, when the door was suddenly pushed a few times, and when he saw that he couldn't push it open, a voice shouted outside the door: "Is Dean Liang awake?" Contemptible shadows. ”

It was the voice of Major General Ying Zuo Zhenzhao, who was shrewd when he actually found two lifebuoys, and did not save Wang Jingwei but saved Wen Zongyao. He had only come once in the afternoon, but Liang Hongzhi pretended to fall asleep when he heard his voice.

"Open the door." Liang Hongzhi was surprised and had to let Chen Qun open the door, and the Japanese could not avoid it.

"Oh, it turns out that Chen Jun is also here." In the morning, Kagesazhen narrowly escaped the disaster, but he was not happy to be alive. A few hours ago, the base camp called to reprimand him, and if it weren't for the army's all-out fight, he would probably have been ordered to cut his stomach. There is no seppuku but the reprimand is still heavy, and the base camp believes that the central government must be established, and the sooner the better.

"Yes. After this catastrophe, I am deliberating with my brothers on how the government should deal with the aftermath. "Chen Qun is an old man, he doesn't blink his eyes when he lies, and he turns how to cooperate with the enemy into how to deal with the aftermath with one mouth.

"yes. How the government deals with the aftermath is the most important thing for the government to deal with, we ......," Liang Hongzhi also added, but his words were very redundant.

"This incident is a long-planned act by the Chongqing Changkaishen government and the China Navy." Kagezo Zhenzhao apparently also read the issue of the Damei Evening News, "They tried in vain to assassinate Mr. Wang to prevent the establishment of a new government, and now the establishment of a new government is imperative." ”

The government of the Restoration was originally propped up by the Japanese, and the Japanese were whatever they said. Liang Hongzhi heard this: "Then the seat of the new government is chosen in Nanjing or Beiping?" ”

Liang Hongzhi's words contain deep meaning, asking about the seat of the new government, in fact, he wants to know who is more important than himself, Wang Kemin. Kagezo Zhenzhao knew what he meant, and he was silent for a while before saying, "Nanjing is the capital of the Republic of China, and of course the new government is in Nanjing. ”

"It's good to be in Nanjing. It's good to be in Nanjing. Liang Hongzhi breathed a sigh of relief, and it seemed that he, the acting chairman of the new government, was seated. He asked again, "Then when are we going to Qingdao?" ”

"Although the meeting has been postponed, if Dean Liang is well, we can take a plane to Qingdao early tomorrow morning." Ying Zuo Zhenzhao saw Liang Hongzhi's joy. To be honest, he doesn't like Liang Hongzhi, but he is the only one who can use it at the moment, and if Wang Kemin is the chairman of the new government, the representatives of the southern provinces will definitely not be happy.
