Chapter 340: General Jiang Commander
These consuls were guarded by Chen Jinghui's people, and they blew their beards angrily and stared at each other, but they just couldn't help it. In Shanghai, Chen Jinghui is now the boss, and if they dare to cause trouble, someone will definitely visit at night. In fact, they all knew in their hearts that these people were Chen Jinghui's subordinates, but they were suffering from no evidence, otherwise they would not have watched those consuls die without saying a word.
"Commander, good news, good news, the political commissar has taken Hangzhou."
The next morning, as soon as Chen Jinghui and the others arrived at the headquarters, Chief of Staff Chen went to Chen Jinghui with Chen Hu's good news and reported the situation to him.
"Hehe, okay, order Secretary Deng to immediately send political cadres to Zhejiang according to the previous plan. The political commissar was ordered to leave two divisions of troops to defend Zhejiang, and the others immediately marched towards Nanjing. ”
Chen Jinghui was also very happy to hear the news of the end of the Battle of Hangzhou, and immediately made arrangements for Zhejiang, which had already been occupied.
At this moment, however, the residence of Commander-in-Chief Chiang was extraordinary, and the US ambassador protested to Commander-in-Chief Chiang on behalf of the United States and Britain against Chen Jinghui's illegal occupation of their concession in Shanghai. Germany also telegraphed its dissatisfaction with Chen Jinghui's forcible occupation of the German concession.
"Commander Jiang, how can your General Chen do this, forcibly send troops into the concession without our consent, that is our territory." The U.S. ambassador, General Maher, questioned Commander-in-Chief Chiang.
"General Maher, I don't know what you're talking about, I need to ask." Commander Jiang said.
"Commander Jiang, this is an indisputable fact, does it still need to be investigated!" Maher exclaimed.
"General Maher is angry, we are now fighting with the devils in Fujian, as for the matter in Shanghai, we really don't know, please give us a little time to figure out this matter." Li Zongren, who was standing on the side, interjected.
"General Li, do you think it's still necessary to investigate! You see, this is a telegram from our consul in Shanghai, whose residences are now under the watchful eye of General Chen. We strongly protest against such behavior. ”
Maher took out a telegram, pushed it to Commander Chiang, and said in a loud voice.
Commander Chiang took the telegram and looked like his facial expression had not changed at all. However, in his heart, he praised Chen Jinghui for doing a good job, and the United States and other powers forcibly occupied the territory of China, and they dared to come to ask for the guilt. But he could only say these things in his heart, but he didn't dare to say them on the surface. Because he needs the support of the United States now, both economically and militarily, he needs the United States.
"Niang Xipi, you dare to do this. Someone came and sent a report to Chen Jinghui and asked him to explain this matter clearly. Commander Jiang shouted.
"Commander, Commander Jiang is here to ask for guilt."
After receiving the telegram from Commander Chiang, Chief of Staff Chen frowned, not knowing what to do.
"So fast, I thought I'd have to wait a few days!" Chen Jinghui said indifferently.
"Commander, this matter can be big or small, you better be cautious." Chief of Staff Chen reminded.
"Hehe, so what. They reported the killing of our people in the concession, saying that we were investigating the murderers and that we were also concerned about protecting the safety of the consuls of various countries. Again, it is to ask Commander Jiang if he wants Nanjing. If you want it, send troops; If not, I'll take it. ”
Chen Jinghui had already thought of a countermeasure, and he would not admit it. He caught himself in order to track down the murderer and protect the safety of the consuls, so he sent the army in. When the matter is clarified and the person is caught, he will naturally retreat. There is also the matter of Nanjing, he doesn't want to have a fight with Commander Jiang later.
"Niang Xipi"
The telegram soon arrived at Commander Jiang, and after reading the telegram, Commander Jiang was very angry, knowing that Chen Jinghui was helpless. But even if he is helpless, he still agrees. But for the matter of Nanjing, that is a different matter.
"Commander Jiang, how is it, what does General Chen say." Maher asked.
"General Maher, things are clear. General Chen is also to catch the murderer, and then to protect the safety of the consuls. Aren't there a few consuls who have been assassinated by devils! This is also a stopgap measure. Waiting for the murderer to be caught, he will withdraw his troops. Commander Jiang said.
"What? If he can't catch the murderer in a few years, wouldn't he have to be stationed in the concession for a few years. Maher waited for his eyes to question.
"General Maher, I will urge General Chen to resolve this matter as soon as possible, and I will definitely give you a satisfactory answer." Commander Jiang said.
"Hmph, I hope so. I'm going to give you three more days and hope you can get things sorted out. ”
Maher stood up and said a word of displeasure, turned and left.
"Commander, General Chen did the right thing in this matter. What is the difference between those great powers occupying our land in China and the devils, and they still have the face to question us. After Maher left, Li Zongren said.
"Well, you have a point. But we need the support of the United States now, and we can't offend them yet, so let's drag it out like this! Let's discuss something else! Commander Jiang said.
"Something else, something." Li Zongren asked.
"Someone, call Chen Cheng and He Yingqin over." Commander Jiang did not answer, but asked people to go to Chen Cheng and them.
"Commander, you're looking for us." Soon, Chen Cheng and the others came.
"Look at this, tell me what you think."
Commander-in-Chief Chiang handed them Chen Jinghui's telegram on Nanking and asked them to express their views.
"Nanjing, commander-in-chief, what do you mean by General Chen?" After reading it, several people asked suspiciously.
"Niang Xipi, this Chen Jinghui knows that he is angry with me and causes trouble for me. Don't you understand what he means, that is, to let us automatically give up control of Nanning. Commander Jiang said unhappily.
"Commander, hasn't Nanjing been taken yet?" Chen Cheng asked.
"It's a matter of time, now let's talk about whether we want to enter Nanjing." Commander Jiang asked.
"Commander, I don't think so. If you look at the location of Nanjing, it is completely in the area controlled by the Flying Fox. We have a lot of people in line, and if there is any conflict at that time, it is not the same as falling into the mouth of the tiger. Li Zongren said.
"I don't agree with General Li's opinion, I think it is necessary to send troops into Nanjing. Nanjing is the capital of our GMD, and we can't let them occupy it. He Yingqin said.
"What Chief He said makes sense. But the current situation is that it is not we who took Nanjing, but the Flying Fox. You have to think clearly, the troops stationed are surrounded by flying foxes. Chen Cheng said.
"Niang Xipi, this Chen Jinghui knows that there is a problem for me."
Seeing that several staff members have their own opinions, there is no unified approach. Commander Jiang scolded Chen Jinghui unhappily.
"Commander, look at the area that the flying fox now controls. Most of Jiangxi, Zhejiang, Jiangsu, Anhui and other places have been controlled by Flying Fox. Nanjing is right in the middle of these places. If we send troops into the station, it will be equivalent to saying that we have recovered Nanjing. In that case, if we don't surrender to the government and move back to Nanjing, we won't be able to explain to the people. But if you move back to Nanjing, wouldn't it be completely under the control of others, and what secrets will there be when things are done in the future? Li Zongren attacked and analyzed.
"Headmaster, what General Li said makes sense, if we really enter Nanjing, it will be equivalent to handing over the control of the national government to others, which is a very dangerous thing." Chen Cheng said.
"Then you can't just cheapen Chen Jinghui's kid for nothing." He Yingqin said.
"Well, Ying Qin has a point. Even if we don't send troops to Nanjing, Nanjing will have to have a place for us. Commander Jiang said.
"Commander, that's not the case. Nanjing is still controlled by the Flying Fox, we just symbolically send some unimportant departments to Nanjing, and indicate that our GMD is the leading party of the country, in fact, we don't want to earn it. And in this way, we can also put some of our own people in and monitor the movements of the flying fox at all times. Li Zongren suggested.
"Hmm??? General Lee's suggestion is good and suited to the current situation, and I agree with him. Chen Cheng is also an old fox, so he naturally knows the truth and immediately agrees. In fact, he knew that Commander Chiang cared about Nanjing very much, but now it was not like he actually controlled Nanjing, and he came to them just to find a step, so that he would not be so embarrassed.
"Alas...... Since everyone has said so, I also agree with Commander Lee's suggestion. He Yingqin said helplessly.
"Niang Xipi, it's really infuriating to let a hairy boy force this on. Niang Xipi, call him back, just follow Zongren's method. ”
Although Commander Chiang's inner thoughts are similar to Li Zongren's, he is the commander of the country, and Nanjing is also his previous national capital, so he can't show it. On the surface, it is still pretentious to show the people of the whole country.
"Commander, look at Commander Chiang's telegram, what do they mean by this."
Chief of Staff Chen took Commander Jiang's reply and asked Chen Jinghui very incomprehensibly.
"Call back to Commander Chiang and agree with them."
Chen Jinghui did not explain, and directly agreed. At present, Nanjing is a place of right and wrong, and if it is not handled well, it will cause trouble. Now that Commander Jiang has proposed such a method, it is also very suitable for Chen Jinghui's situation. So he didn't think about it at all and just agreed. As for Jiang commanding their little Jiujiu, Chen Jinghui didn't pay attention to it at all.
"Ordered the troops besieging Nanking to capture it at once, and told them that all those armed with weapons would be exterminated themselves. All those who did not resist were arrested and agreed to take custody. ”
Now that the entanglement in Nanjing has been negotiated, Chen Jinghui no longer waited, and directly ordered the siege of the city. At the same time, he also has instructions for those devil diaspora.
