Chapter 30: Unexpected Assessment (4)
Song Zhewu took a sip of water and continued: "The central government has realized this problem, so it must be disarmed. Zhewu thought that the main targets were the Gui family, the Jin Sui Army, and the Northwest Army. After speaking, he looked at Wen Qing. Seeing that Wen Qing was just smiling and listening, he relaxed his tone and continued lightly: "All parties will definitely not willingly carry out disarmament, to put it bluntly, they are afraid that the central government will only cut other people's armies, and will not cut or reduce their own armies, and in the end, the central army will be significantly stronger than all factions. Therefore, although the various factions on the issue of disarmament do not speak out and oppose it, they will not do it at all, and in the end this issue can only be resolved by force. ”
"Resolved by force? The armies of the various factions have a total of more than 2 million troops, and the Gui faction, the Jin Sui Army, and the Northwest Army alone have more than 800,000 troops. ”
Song Zhewu didn't know how much Chiang Kai-shek had prepared for the Gui faction, but Song Zhewu still decided to shake Wen Qing, or the chairman of the committee in Nanjing, so as to increase his weight in Chairman Chiang's heart. You continued: "Although the armies of the various factions are numerous, and they are very consistent in their approach to the question of disarmament, they are like a compound that is not tightly bound to each other, and is very unstable, and when the external conditions change, they can easily be divided into monoliths. If the central government copes with the law, it is easy to break through each one. ”
Song Zhewu's words made Wen Qing a little moved, and he really felt that Song Zhewu's insight was extraordinary now. At present, all circles of Nanjing's political axe have misgivings about confronting various factions, and the overwhelming majority of people in the armed forces are not optimistic about the prospects of the central government settling the problem by force. In his feeling, only Chairman Jiang himself is very determined, and this Song Zhewu has the momentum of Chairman Jiang. "What does Commander Song think the central government should do in order to be considered lawful?" Wen Qing asked Song Zhewu seriously.
Song Zhewu continued to say calmly: "Any one of these three parties alone against the central government will undoubtedly lose, even if the three parties join forces, as long as the central government is not defeated and defeated in the early stage, then the final victory must belong to the central government." ”
Seeing that the three of them were a little puzzled, Song Zhewu continued: "The central government has a righteous reputation and the support of the Jiangsu and Zhejiang consortiums, as long as the war situation is stabilized, it will continue to receive financial and material support, which other parties do not have. In terms of political vision and strategy, Li Zongren and Bai Chongxi of the Gui lineage, Yan Xishan of the Jin Sui Army, and Feng Yuxiang of the Northwest Army were by no means the opponents of Chairman Chiang. Therefore, the central government should not be afraid of a solution by force. ”
Wen Qing thought about Song Zhewu's words carefully, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that it made sense, not to say that Chairman Chiang occupied the righteous position of the Central Committee, nor did he say that he had strong financial resources to rely on, but in terms of Chairman Chiang's political skills, there was indeed no one to compare. Not only Li Zongren, Bai Chongxi, Yan Xishan, and Feng Yuxiang are not his opponents, but also looking at China, he also thinks that few people can stand out. This time the method of dealing with the Gui family surprised him greatly and admired him greatly. Wen Qing's heart moved, and he wanted to see how many catties and taels this unusual young man had, and asked: "Wen Ge, the central government and the three parties will do it at the same time, even if they win, it will hurt their vitality, of course the central government doesn't want this, and if they want to do it, they will also break it." If it were you, who would you choose to move first? ”
"Katsura." Song Zhewu replied without thinking.
Seeing that Song Zhewu answered so simply, Wen Qing couldn't help but ask, "Why?" ”
"To solve the problem of disarmament, the key is to solve the three families of the Gui family, the Jin Sui Army, and the Northwest Army, and the key to these three is the Gui family. Li Zongren and Bai Chongxi of the Gui faction are both smart people with high wisdom, and if the central government uses force against the Jin Sui Army and the Northwest Army, the Gui faction will never sit idly by. And if you make a move on the Gui family first, the other two are likely to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, and they all want to wait for the two sides to lose and lose, so that they can get cheap without effort. As long as the central government quickly succeeds in the battle with the Gui faction and settles the Gui faction before they come to their senses, they will have no chance to take advantage of it. Therefore, we must solve the Gui system first. Moreover, among these three families, although the Jin Suijun army occupied the land of Suiyuan, Shanxi, Hebei, and Chahar provinces, the four provinces were geographically connected, and Yan Xishan had operated in Shanxi for more than ten years, and his power was stable. If he first made a move against the Jin Sui army, Yan Xishan would definitely abandon Hebei and Chahar and retreat back to Shanxi and Suiyuan. Shanxi faces the mountains on three sides, one side is by the river, the terrain is dangerous, easy to defend and difficult to attack, since ancient times, it has the name of the river and the mountain in the surface. The war will by no means end in a short period of time, and others will actively prepare for the war and look for opportunities and excuses to confront the central authorities, and then the situation will inevitably be chaotic. The Northwest Army is also the same problem, once the battle situation is unfavorable, the Northwest Army will inevitably retreat to Guanzhong. As long as the Jin Sui Army and the Gui Department are still there, the Northwest Army will feel that as long as they hold on, there will be a turnaround, and they will resist desperately, and with the combat effectiveness of the Northwest Army, even if the Central Army wins in the end, it will be a miserable victory. In that case, Jin Suijun and the Gui family will really have a chance. On the other hand, the Gui system is not the case, the Gui system is strong on the surface, and the power extends for several provinces, just like the snake of Changshan, hitting the head and tail, and hitting the abdomen is both the head and the tail. In fact, the Gui system is divided into Hebei, the two lakes in central China and Guangxi, among which the forces in Hebei are isolated and separated, and the central army and the northwest army of Henan are separated from the two lakes, and the head and body are not functioning well. Especially in the Bai Chongxi Department in Hebei, which is the head of the snake, although there are more than 100,000 people, the two departments under its jurisdiction, Li Pinxian and Liao Lei, are both Tang Shengzhi's old departments, and most of them are Sanxiang children, and they have long been unwilling to be stationed in Hebei for a long time. As long as Tang Shengzhi ascends to the heights, Li and Liao will never obey. Now all that is left is to see which side the central government supports? The central government supports the Gui faction, and the Li and Liao departments will never dare to mess up, otherwise they will face the joint encirclement and suppression of the Central Army, the Jin Sui Army, and the Gui faction, and the entire army will inevitably be annihilated. If the central government supported Tang Shengzhi, the Jin Sui army would never dare to help Bai Chongxi, otherwise it would face a joint attack by the central army and Tang Shengzhi, and Yan Xishan's surname would never do such a decisive move. Therefore, as long as the central government supports Tang Shengzhi to go out of the mountains, Bai Chongxi will be expelled immediately, and the Gui faction's power in North China will immediately disappear, and then Tang Shengzhi, who is eager to return to Hunan, will lead his troops to cooperate with the central army to attack the two lakes, and the Gui faction's power in central China will soon disappear. The remaining province of Guangxi, if the central government wants to solve it, it will be as easy as a finger. ”
Wen Qing's face was as usual on the surface, and he looked at Song Zhewu who was talking eloquently with a smile, but in fact, he was extremely shocked in his heart. Chiang Kai-shek's method of dealing with the Gui family actually came out of the mouth of this twenty-six or seventeen-year-old young man, which could not but surprise him! Chiang Kai-shek's method of dealing with the Gui family, he admired and admired it very much, Chiang Kai-shek's accurate judgment of the situation, and the courage to release Tang Shengzhi, a hungry wolf, to expel Bai Chongxi's tiger, was really extraordinary. However, after all, Chiang Kai-shek has been up and down in the sea for decades, and it is not surprising that he is politically skillful. But such a young man had no less understanding and judgment of the situation than Chiang Kai-shek, which really surprised him.
These days, he has traveled to almost all the barracks of the security brigade and has a real understanding of the high morale, well-trained, and sophisticated equipment of the security brigade. Every day, he sent a telegram to Chiang Kai-shek, who was far away in Nanjing, in which he told Chiang Kai-shek: "With his many years of military experience, this unit can be compared with the units of the Central Army in all aspects, and even stronger than the Central Army in many aspects, except for the slight lack of actual combat experience." Don't say that this force is no longer within the scope of reduction, even if it is, it should not be reduced in such a strong army. While Yan Xishan didn't have the idea of fighting this army, he should immediately take him back into the Central Army. Chiang Kai-shek still has a lot of trust in this henchman who has been following him for a long time, and he has sent a telegram last night, promising to promote Song Zhewu to lieutenant general, Xiao Guodong and Wang Xu to major generals, and expand the security brigade to three infantry divisions, one cavalry division, plus three brigades. The officers of each ministry were appointed by Song Zhewu and reported to the Ministry of Military Affairs for the record. In order to tie the record with Shang Zhen, the Security Command was still subject to Shang Zhen's control, but the military salary was allocated by the central government, and the Security Command was included in the unified sequence of the Ministry of Military Affairs. Although Shang Zhen continued to control it, he had actually taken over the command.
Wen Qing felt that he needed to show his identity now, he took out a document and handed it to Song Zhewu, Song Zhewu looked at Wen Qing and said with a smile: "This should be the true identity of Instructor Wen, right?" Wen Qing knew that Song Zhewu should know that his identity as an instructor was fake, so he just smiled and didn't answer. Song Zhewu opened the document and saw that it was written on it, "Chief of Education of the Army Military Academy of the Republic of China: Lieutenant General Zhang Zhi." ”
Now it was Song Zhewu's turn to be shocked, Zhang Zhizhong is very famous, and he is a big celebrity he respects more in [***]. Song Zhewu immediately stood up and gave Zhang Zhizhong a standard military salute. "I don't know if the education grows up, and Zhewu is negligent, please forgive me."
At this time, Xiao Guodong and Chu Feng also came back to their senses from Song Zhewu's shocking words, and the two who reacted also got up and saluted Zhang Zhizhong.
Zhang Zhizhong said with a smile: "I didn't slack off, I don't blame you, if you had known my identity, I would have discounted everything I saw, only in this way did I see the real security brigade and the real Song Wenge." ”
"The chief of education is aware of the situation, and Tetsumu is grateful, and Tetsumu wants to know the evaluation of the chief of education about the security brigade." Song Zhewu thought that the security brigade had become an army, and it was a good and strong army. However, he was afraid that because it was a unit established by a confidant, he would have the illusion that he cherished himself, so he very much wanted to hear Zhang Zhizhong, an expert who had been in the army for many years and had also engaged in military training for many years, make a pertinent evaluation of this unit.
"Well-armed, well-trained, morale-high, mighty and benevolent. That's what I say about the Security Brigade. I can also tell you that this is also the exact words I said in my telegram to Chairman Chiang in Nanjing. Brother Wenge, you have led the troops well, Chairman Jiang is very pleased! After a pause, Zhang Zhizhong's face turned pale, and he said uprightly: "The chairman of the committee will speak; Since the formation of the army, Song Zhewu, the commander of the security forces in Hebei Province, has made remarkable achievements in suppressing bandits and pacifying the people and appeasing the localities. Today, the division was expanded into 4 divisions and 3 brigades, and security commander Song Zhewu was promoted to lieutenant general to encourage him. "The lieutenant general said that the division was expanded to 4 divisions and 3 brigades, which was a prince, and it was a prince recognized by Chairman Jiang, Song Zhewu was a little excited for a while.
Zhang Zhizhong smiled understandingly and patted Song Zhewu on the shoulder: "Brother Wenge, candidates for division and brigade commanders, you have to give me a list immediately, and I will report to the chairman." I see this, you give it to me in an hour. In addition, the party you made in your Chinese New Year's Eve very interesting, and the chairman of the NPC Committee attached great importance to it, and has instructed the Central Propaganda Department to arrange for the Central Yue Pao and several other major newspapers in Nanjing to come to Laiyuan, and you must make good arrangements if you can arrive in the 30th Chinese New Year's Eve at the latest. In addition, I won't leave, just spend the New Year in Laiyuan, and then go back to Nanjing. ”
