With such a big backer as "Mr. Min", Ruan Gaoqi survived the catastrophe without danger and was transferred to the bomber brigade as a major captain.

At the meeting, Ngo Dinh Diem strongly condemned the mutiny, passed a bill to punish coup officers and arrest anti-government figures from all walks of life, and passed a bill to co-elect 12 additional members of the National Assembly.

Famous Chinese industrialists and philanthropists such as Ngo Tranh Chen, Ma An Yi, Ngo Chang Minh, and Hoang Tsz Heng became members of the National Assembly of the Republic of South Vietnam. Including Li Weimin, Liu Jiachang, Zhang Yinggui and Ho Tianming, there are already 14 Chinese among the 86 members of Congress.

What is ironic is that Liu Jiachang, Jiang Chao and others resigned from their positions in the industrial investment company and officially became ministers and vice ministers of various government departments and vice presidents of the State Bank. Not only do they have a good reputation, but they are not members of the People's Workers' Party or Catholics, and they have embodied "pluralism" and "democratization" to the fullest, and they almost proudly claim that the current government is a coalition government.

They are not appointed to important positions such as interior ministers and defense ministers, and their power after becoming senior government officials is relatively small compared with their previous positions.

For several years, the media controlled by the Department of Industry and Investment repeatedly claimed that they were recognized as "patriotic Chinese" in South Vietnam and one of the few "people who do the right thing" in South Vietnam.

Since the appointment was officially announced, almost no opposition has been heard, almost no one has made a fuss about their Chinese status, and the public just feels that the "democratization" reform is not strong enough, and that some more opposition parties should be recruited into the government, and at the same time high hopes are placed on these new officials who are "doing the right thing". I hope they can create another miracle like they did in the industrial investment company.

The reception and resettlement in the Parrot Point area is largely complete. Now it is mainly against the North Vietnamese People's Army and the Viet Minh's local forces in the south.

On the front line, Wang Jingui organized the security teams of various industrial villages and the militia self-defense forces of the villages in the southern part of the country to fight in turns. Qian Xinlin returned to Saigon as early as June last year.

Li Weimin finally returned to the embankment, so he naturally had to meet with Qian Xinlin, Zhang Yinggui, Gu Changgeng, Gui Qingshan, He Tianming, Han Shuo and other core members of the "Yuehua Literature and Art Research Association" to study the situation and determine the direction of the next work.

Although the Chinese power had developed to the point where they could make demands on the government, the struggle for political status was the limit of the Wu brothers' ambitions, so the society was still a secret organization and could not operate openly.

The meeting was held in a large warehouse in Pingdong Industrial Village. The outside is heavily guarded, and everyone can speak freely.

"A three-year blank check for 10 parliamentary seats, a cabinet minister and five deputy ministers is such a good deal that we are the big winners of the Singles' Day coup."

Zhang Yinggui has never been so happy as he is today, and he has been smiling since he sat down.

It is indeed gratifying to think that the number of Chinese has increased by nearly one million in the past few years, and they have contributed so much to the economy of South Vietnam, and have so many military forces through the Industrial Investment Company, the Southern Resettlement Village, and the Fifth Infantry Division, but their political status has not kept up. Congressmen though in name only. Although the ministers and deputy ministers also had little real power, they could show that the Chinese were also South Vietnamese citizens. The same has the right to participate in national politics.

When everyone is accustomed to it, and when everyone agrees that the Chinese are an indispensable part of the country, it is completely possible to justifiably produce a prime minister or even a president in the future.

It is of great significance, if it were last year, Qian Xinlin would definitely propose to celebrate.

However, before the situation was pressing, in addition to Wu Tingyan, there was more important to pay attention to, he took a deep breath and said sideways: "Lao Gui, you can tell you about the information you just received. ”

"Okay."

Gui Qingshan snuffed out his cigarette and said with a worried face: "Ladies and gentlemen, according to the latest information received by us and the Korean Bureau, North Vietnam intends to create a united front in South Vietnam, using the same struggle tactics as during the anti-French period, and calling on schools, leftist cultural and religious groups in the south to unite under their leadership to overthrow the Ngo Dinh Diem government and drive the Americans away. Strive for national reunification and national independence.

In other words, an underground struggle across the south is about to unfold in full swing. They will infiltrate schools, factories, and villages, and the situation on the embankments will become more and more severe, and the industrial villages will no longer be paradises, and we will face unprecedented challenges in the future. ”

National unity, national independence, this slogan is too inspiring, almost occupies the general righteousness.

North Vietnam was engaged in a general mobilization on the united front in the south, and it is conceivable that wherever there were Americans, they would become the target of attack by their underground organizations. There are not only U.S.-funded companies, U.S. experts, but also U.S. employees and U.S. consultants in the industrial villages, and the security situation is really not optimistic.

Li Weimin frowned slightly, and Gui Qingshan continued: "In the eyes of North Vietnam, the recently aborted coup d'état means that the time is ripe for an all-out armed struggle against the south. In order to avoid interference by the international community, they are preparing to make a superficial distance from the South and name the united front they lead the 'Southern National Liberation Front', which is to be chaired by a lawyer named Nguyen Huu Tho.

In order to cooperate with the Liberation Front, the Central Committee of the Workers' Party of North Vietnam, through the Southern Bureau, has ordered the sleepers in the Mekong Delta to take up arms again, destroy roads and bridges, assassinate government cadres in the villages, and launch a people's war.

The 'Hua-Yun' organization on the embankment has just received an order to join the 'Southern National Liberation Front' when its establishment is officially announced, and it has even organized more than a dozen so-called 'hoe squads', with dozens of pages on the assassination list, with Mr. Li, President Liu, General Zhang, Tianming, Wen Shui, Director Han, and Director Zhang all on the list, and they are all in the top positions. ”

This is born from the same root, so why not be in a hurry to fry each other.

In the camp of Soviet Russia, there was no good end to underground work. You think that after the reunification of the north and the south, those white-eyed wolves will be good to you, not to mention the "Hua-Yun" under the dual leadership of Beijing and Hanoi, and even Nguyen Huu Tho has been treated unfairly in history, and it was not until his death that he was recognized as a member of the Workers' Party.

Li Weimin sighed secretly and said solemnly: "It's not so easy to assassinate us, the real danger is those who support us, especially influential entrepreneurs." ”

This information has been received, and it is impossible for the intelligence chief to be unprepared.

Han Shuo took over the conversation and proposed in a low voice: "Mr. Li, on the issue of the security of Chinese businessmen, it is far from enough to rely on the embankment police station, the industrial village security team, and the audit and inspection department. If conditions permit, entrepreneurs who invest in the construction of factories in various industrial villages will finally form their own security teams.

Each company or factory has a security department, recruits and trains several security personnel, and we authorize them to possess weapons. At the same time, the establishment of commercial security companies is encouraged to provide security services for those Chinese businessmen who are not qualified to set up security departments. ”

Gui Qingshan said expressionlessly: "They are mobilized, and we must mobilize the same." It is necessary to organize forces to conduct a strict background check on the teachers of the Chinese schools and the schools in the industrial villages on the embankment. Strengthen the monitoring of Phu Quoc University of Technology and community colleges in industrial villages, strengthen the strength of trade unions in industrial villages, and prevent the infiltration of 'labor-movement' organizations into industrial villages.

In a surprise operation to collect illegal weapons from the Chinese areas and industrial villages on the embankment, the permit system was strictly implemented, and checks were set up on the roads and waterways leading to the embankment and the industrial villages. Set up a training base for police dogs and military dogs, and help the embankment police station and the security teams of various industrial villages train explosive search dogs and police dog ......"

It's a big deal, but it's not enough.

"We can't afford to lose propaganda and support the reunification of the North and the South, national independence, and at the same time let everyone know about the atrocities committed by North Vietnam," Lee. Just as North Vietnamese Prime Minister Pham Van Dong has repeatedly stressed that they will not change their way of life in the South, we should step up propaganda and repeatedly emphasize that we should not only listen to what North Vietnam says, but also know what they have done.

In addition, in terms of safety, some modern technology and equipment can be introduced. For example, large X-ray equipment is placed at the entrance of each industrial village, and people and vehicles can pass through it to see at a glance whether they are carrying weapons or explosives. ”

Zhang Yinggui inferred: "They can't enter the industrial village, they may use mortars or fire rockets from a distance. The security team of the industrial village should go out and expand the patrol area. The management committees of various industrial villages should establish good relations with the surrounding villages and help them form militia self-defense units. ”

……

You say a word, I say a word, and a set of security plans is formed.

If it is handed over to the Reserve Officer Training Team of Phu Quoc University of Technology and the Security Department of the Industrial Investment Company, it will be immediately organized and implemented.

Li Weimin looked at Sang Pingxiang, who was taking notes, and said solemnly: "The embankment and the industrial villages are basically like this, even if there is a problem, there will be no major problems, the key is the six provinces." In the large defense areas, the national army and local police are not very effective, and the problem cannot be solved by relying on the provincial anti-smuggling units and more than a dozen mobile force bases. ”

Zhang Yinggui is a soldier who has fought with the Vietminh in the North Vietnamese Nong area for nearly eight years, and his experience is not rich in one or two points.

He got up and walked to the map that had just been unfolded, and said as he gestured: "After more than three years of purging, except for the ones we deliberately left, there will be no more than 200 latent Viet Minh underground elements on the entire Jinou Peninsula. The key is to keep out the Viet Minh elements who are trying to infiltrate the south.

Luckily, we had a bit of an advantage in the terrain.

The border troops must be strengthened as soon as possible, and it is best to mobilize a reserve division to guard the Ha Zhu road to the west to ensure that they cannot penetrate from the Vietnamese-Cambodian border to the six lower provinces; Strengthen the security teams of Soc Trang Industrial Village and Can Tho Industrial Village, and set up four to five river patrol boat brigades as soon as possible to block the waterway from Trang Binh to Can Tho to Long Trat.

In this way, if they wanted to transport troops and equipment to the south, they could only pass through the line from Zhu Du to Longchuan. It is less than 100 kilometers from east to west, and the highway is in such good condition that the Fourth Tactical Zone should be able to defend it even if it is incompetent, so it is really impossible to form a temporary patrol team, and personnel will be drawn from the reserves of various industrial villages and patrol in turn in the form of rotational battles.
