Section 2 Surrender to the Enemy IX

At this moment, Zhang Fakui is the most embarrassing, among all the people present, he has the closest relationship with Wang Jingwei, Ning Han is opposed, he is the main force that Wang Jingwei relies on, protecting the party and saving the country, he is the only general with heavy troops under Wang Jingwei's account, the four armies of the department are known as the Iron Army, and the Gui Department of the Seventh Army, the Huangpu Department of the First Division are the three main forces of the Northern Expeditionary Army, and he is the general in Wang Jingwei's camp in several civil wars since then.

Now what should he do? Zhang Fakui felt as if everyone was looking at him with suspicion, but he didn't know what to say, he was almost certain in his heart that Wang Jingwei had left in response to Mine's statement, and Chen Bijun had gone to Guangdong to find him last year, and he tried to say that if Wang Jingwei was determined to take the road of peace, he hoped that he would respond in Guangdong.

At that time, he did not agree, let Chen Bijun disappointed and left, after the defeat of the Central Plains War, his descendants only left two regiments, after 918, he advocated the War of Resistance, was rejected by Chiang Kai-shek, disheartened, he resigned to go abroad for investigation, until three or five years did not return to China, Chiang Kai-shek appointed him as the commander-in-chief of the border areas of Anhui, Jiangxi, Zhejiang, Fujian and the director of appeasement of the Jiangsu-Zhejiang border region, specializing in supervising the anti-Japanese fortifications, after the Lugou Bridge Incident, Songhu served as the commander-in-chief of the Eighth Army during the Anti-Japanese War, and has been fighting on the front line of the Anti-Japanese War.

"Chairman of the committee, Wang Jingwei's move is likely to be related to Minei's statement, if he really makes a move to lose his power and humiliate the country, he is extremely traitor to the country, and he is willing to lead the telegram and punish him together." Zhang Fakui's tone was a little painful, but his expression was firm and unwavering.

Zhang Fakui's words made Chiang Kai-shek and Bai Chongxi feel shocked, Zhang Fakui has always followed Wang Jingwei politically, and in the camp of the reorganization faction, there has always been Chen Gongbo, and Zhang Fakui has been martial; Kelian is such a heavy general, after Wang Jingwei took the first step to seek peace, that is, he declared that he would sever relations with him.

Thinking of Zhuang Jihua's attitude yesterday, Chiang Kai-shek once again felt that the current general trend and the people's aspirations were aspiring. But he still didn't make a decision immediately, and Bai Chongxi also said at this time: "Chairman, Brother Xiang Hua understands the righteousness, I think it's okay." ”

Chiang Kai-shek's heart fluctuated, and he didn't want to make an immediate decision to expel Wang Jingwei from the party and completely eliminate this trouble, but after thinking about it carefully, he felt that it was inappropriate, Zhang Fakui's actions could only represent Zhang Fakui personally, and Wang Jingwei, as one of the important leaders of the party, had long held important positions in the party and in the political axe, and had a large number of followers in the party and the army, and these people were distributed in the party and the army, and held positions in institutions at all levels.

Chiang Kai-shek shook his head lightly: "Wang Zhaoming is the vice president of the party, the chairman of the National Council for Political Participation, and has a glorious revolutionary history, as long as he does not take clear action for a day, we should." After finishing speaking, he turned to Bai Chongxi and Zhang Fakui and said: "Jiansheng, Xianghua, the war in Guangxi will be handed over to you, if such a big thing happens, Yucheng will definitely be in chaos, I want to go back immediately to stabilize people's hearts." ”

"Please rest assured, we will do our best to succeed in the counterattack and drive the little devils out of Guangxi." Bai Chongxi didn't want Chiang Kai-shek to stay here for a long time, and wished he had left early.

Chiang Kai-shek said to Zhang Fakui again: "Brother Xianghua, don't worry about the war, don't care about the rest, I trust you." ”

"Please rest assured, Chairman." Zhang Fakui knew in his heart that Chiang Kai-shek was giving him a reassurance, as long as he didn't follow Wang Jingwei, he would be fine in the future.

Chiang Kai-shek nodded and turned to leave, Zhuang Jihua saw that Chiang Kai-shek was gone, what was he still doing here, so he followed Chiang Kai-shek out, and when Chiang Kai-shek got into the car, he asked first: "Principal, are the students still staying here?" ”

"You, go back to Kunming immediately, don't leave a step." Chiang Kai-shek said solemnly, Zhuang Jihua nodded, Chiang Kai-shek reacted quickly enough, and at present, the only channels of communication between China and the outside world are the Yunnan-Vietnam Railway and the Yunnan-Burma Highway.

Chiang Kai-shek flew back to Yucheng by plane on the same day, and as soon as the plane landed, he issued several orders, first asking Chen Gongbo and Bai Sitong to come from Chengdu to Yucheng immediately, and second, inviting Kuomintang veterans Dai Jitao, Wu Zhihui, Yu Youren, Ju Zheng, Zou Lu, and Kong Xiangxi to immediately go to the residence of Lin Sen, chairman of the National Political Axe of Geyue Mountain, to hold a meeting, and third, to order Dai Li to immediately go to the Huangshan official residence to stand by.

Chen Bui was just about to make a phone call, but Chiang Kai-shek stopped him again, was silent for a while, and ordered: "Plus Sun Ke and Zhang Jingjiang." Chen Bui didn't ask anything else, Sun Ke must have gone to Lin Sen, Sun Ke himself has nothing, but his special identity determines that his attitude is very critical, and the relationship between Sun Ke and Wang Jingwei is still relatively good, Wang Jingwei's departure has caused a lot of chaos, and Sun Ke can't go anymore.

Chiang Kai-shek did not return to the Huangshan Residence, but immediately drove to Lin Yuan, and when he arrived at Lin Yuan, it was already full of lights. Lin Yuan villa is built on the mountain, surrounded by fragrant creek in front, leaning on the green mountains and green mountains, the mountains and rocks are handsome, and the forest is verdant; The strange flowers and trees in the garden are mixed, and there are 10,000 tea trees, when the spring tea is about to ripen, and the garden is full of tea fragrance.

This forest garden was originally built for Chiang Kai-shek, Lin Sen came to see it and praised it, Chiang Kai-shek immediately gave him the house, and since then it has become Lin Sen's official residence.

Chiang Kai-shek's footsteps were in a hurry, and he had no intention of appreciating the scenery in the garden, unlike other residences, only Lin Sen's secretary Wang Yihan greeted him at the door, which was also Lin Sen's rule, and he never greeted anyone who came to visit in the political axe, whether it was Chiang Kai-shek or Wang Jingwei, on the contrary, if it was a considerable literati visit, he had to greet him at the door.

Sun Ke, Yu Youren, Wu Zhihui, and Kong Xiangxi's residences are relatively close, and they have all arrived, Dai Jitao is sick and cannot attend the meeting, and Zhang Jingjiang and Juzheng Zou Lu live farther away and are on the road.

"Chairman, today's matter is urgent, and I can't help it." Chiang Kai-shek first greeted Yang Sen, which is also a habit between the two, Yang Sen became the chairman of the national political axe, but he never cared about things, the military attache came, he sent to see Chiang Kai-shek, the civil official came, first sent to see Wang Jingwei, and then sent to see Kong Xiangxi, if anyone gave him the document, he would approve it, and if it was handled by that department, it would be approved to that department.

Yang Sen still sat motionless, just nodded at him calmly, and sighed heavily: "Alas, Chairman, you have also worked hard, Wang Zhaoming, alas! ”

Everyone here knew that Chiang Kai-shek's return from Liuzhou in such a hurry, and the fact that he had summoned everyone to a meeting as soon as he got off the plane must have been for Wang Zhaoming's sake.

The atmosphere sank down suddenly, and the people attending the meeting today were all veterans of the Kuomintang, and these people had deep contacts with Wang Jingwei in the former Qing Dynasty, so they felt emotionally unacceptable to Wang Jingwei's move. In the past, Wang Jingwei was against Chiang, and it could be said that he had different political views, but this time, once he took that step, it was treason, and it was difficult to export his words of intercession.

Yu Youren stroked his long beard under his chin, his brows furrowed into a heavy Sichuan character, he wanted to open his mouth several times, closed it several times, and finally let out a long sigh.

"If Wang Zhaoming really does something degrading to the country, then there is nothing to say, expelled from the party, and the whole party will punish him." Sun Ke said loudly without any scruples, he has always been flying and jumping, relying on being Sun Yat-sen's son, and he has always thought of doing things and doing things.

"Wang Zhaoming hasn't done anything after all, is it inappropriate to expel him from the party now." Kong Xiangxi frowned and replied, although he knew that he would step down after the Fourth Plenary Session of the Fifth Central Committee, he didn't seem to be the slightest bit disappointed. Kong Xiangxi wanted to dispose of Wang Jingwei from the bottom of his heart, but his long-term political career told him that things were not so simple.

"And what is he going to do?" Sun Ke asked: "He is the vice president of the party, the chairman of the National Senate, and he went to Hanoi without asking for leave or explanation, what is he going to do?" ”

"It is precisely because he is the vice president of the party and the chairman of the National Council for Political Participation that he must be cautious." Kong Xiangxi said calmly: "If we don't handle it properly, he will have an excuse, and he will say that we forced him to his side." ”

Sun Ke sneered: "He still uses us to force him, he Wang Jingwei has always advocated peace talks, but the chairman of the committee has not listened to him, this time he wants to take risks to split the party and the country." ”

"Aren't you also advocating peace talks?" Lin Sen asked abruptly.

Sun Ke was actually a member of a low-key club and advocated peace talks, and at this moment Lin Sen unveiled his scars in front of him, which made Sun Ke slightly embarrassed, but he quickly calmed down.

"I advocate that the peace talks are peace talks for the unified action of the country, not peace talks like him, he is betraying the party and treasoning against the country."

Chiang Kai-shek has not spoken, and the continuous rush has made him a little tired, so he leans on the sofa and pretends to sleep, but his ears are pricked up, Sun Ke and Yang Sen's words made him frightened, and Kong Xiangxi said that he was forced to surrender to the enemy, which reminded him that there are many people who advocate peace talks, and if they are not handled well, these people will be in danger for everyone, and then there will be more people following Wang Jingwei.

Sun Ke wanted to severely punish Wang Jingwei, Kong Xiangxi advocated prudence, and the two started an argument about this, Yang Sen saw Chiang Kai-shek who was pretending to be asleep, and softly instructed the secretary: "The chairman of the committee has just gotten off the plane and hasn't eaten yet, you let them get some food quickly, it will be difficult to do it when everyone arrives." ”

Wang Yihan was just about to leave, but Chiang Kai-shek opened his eyes: "Thank you, Chairman Lin, but I see that they are also almost there, if there is any dim sum, I can just eat some of them." ”

"That's it, Secretary Wang, go get some peach blossom cake and peach slices from last time, and make another pot of hot tea." Yu Youren said that Yu Youren was probably a high-ranking political axe official to Lin Yuan, and Lin Sen was the only person who would greet him at the door, for no other reason, Lin Sen never thought he was a political axe official, but regarded him as a book friend, a friend and confidant in calligraphy, and Yu Youren never regarded himself as a guest when he went to Lin Yuan.

As soon as Chiang Kai-shek picked up the pastry, as soon as Chiang Kai-shek picked up the pastry, there was a sound of stopping in the courtyard, followed by the sound of two cars entering, Chiang Kai-shek hurriedly swallowed the peach blossom cake in a few bites, but a plate of peach slices did not move.

It was Wu Zhihui who pushed the door in, the gray robe on his body had been washed a little white, and he looked very down, Wu Zhihui did not close the door after entering the door, but held the door, and only let go after Juzheng pushed Zhang Jingjiang in.
