The county magistrates of the counties in southern Jinnan were all promoted by Shang Zhen when he was in office, and now that Shang Zhen is gone, the new provincial chairman Xu Yongchang is a generous person, and he probably won't be too difficult for them. However, if Yan Xishan returned to power, then their future would not be bright. Therefore, not only did they not stop the peasants' actions, but even encouraged the peasants to go to Linfen to find the provincial political axe to make trouble.

As a result, peasants from all counties in southern Jinnan sent a petition group to Linfen to petition the provincial government, demanding that land reform in the style of the Taiyuan Administration be carried out in southern Jinnan.

When the hopeful peasants from all counties rushed to Linfen Provincial Government, the secretary general of the Provincial Government, who came forward to receive them, told the peasants, "He is very supportive of land reform, but he, the secretary-general, cannot make a decision on this matter, and must be decided by the provincial chairman." However, now that Chairman Xu is not there, after Chairman Xu went from Datong to Beiping, he has now gone to Nanjing to find Chairman Jiang of the Central Political Axe. Therefore, I also asked the farmers to go back first, and wait for Chairman Xu to come back, and then solve the problem. ”

Although this reply is very reasonable and to the point, it will have to wait until Xu Yongchang returns, which will inevitably disappoint the farmers who are full of expectations. Led by some agitated "peasants," they staged a petition in Linfen to demand land reform in southern Jinnan. Led by some people, the peasants, who were gradually excited, shouted the slogan "If we do not carry out land reform, we will support Song Zhewu as chairman of Shanxi Province......

In a word, the whole territory of Shanxi is full of voices supporting Song Zhewu and opposing Yan Xishan's stay in Shanxi.

However, what is strange is that Chairman Jiang and Zhang Xueliang, who first strongly demanded that Yan Xishan leave Shanxi and go to sea, did not move at this time, but just watched Song Zhewu make trouble alone in Shanxi, as if they had never asked for this matter.

Regarding Song Zhewu's doubts, Jia Jingde explained: "Wen Ge, at this time and that time, when Baigong just returned to Datong, Chairman Jiang was afraid that Baigong and Feng Yuxiang would join forces and make trouble in the north, so that he would be distracted and unable to suppress the CCP with peace of mind. ”

"But now that Feng Yuxiang has gone to Shandong, Baigong is already lonely, no matter how much trouble he makes, he can't make big waves, and the chairman of the committee has no eyes on Baigong, a toothless tiger, so naturally there is no reason to persecute Baigong anymore. On the contrary, Chairman Chiang is very worried that everyone in Shanxi supports you......"

"He's afraid that it won't be good to come out in Shanxi with another Yan Xishan."

Seeing that Song Zhewu and the others were a little surprised, Jia Jingde continued to explain.

"Wen Ge, you have hundreds of thousands of soldiers and strong financial resources, which is more than 100 dukes back then. Especially now that everyone in Shanxi is supporting you, this makes Chairman Jiang even more worried. How can you not surprise the chairman of the NPC Standing Committee that you have won over the hearts of the people in Shanxi in just one year! You have violated the taboo of the chairman. ”

"At this time, the chairman of the committee is afraid that he will prefer Baigong to stay in Shanxi, and even hope that Baigong will be in charge of the Jin Sui army to balance you. Even Zhang Xueliang probably has such thoughts. ”

Jia Jingde sighed and said helplessly: "This is too much, and it backfires." ”

Song Zhewu thought for a while, and soon understood that what Jia Jingde said was right, and couldn't help but be very depressed, silently took out a cigarette, and smoked it with a lonely expression.

He originally wanted to take this opportunity to drive Yan Xishan away, and then squeeze out Xu Yongchang with public opinion, so that he could take the entire territory of Shanxi into his hands. Unexpectedly, after making trouble for a long time, it helped Yan Xishan! This is really stealing chickens and not being able to counter the rice.

He Qigong on the side glanced at Jia Jingde and didn't say anything, but his expression had already expressed his dissatisfaction with Jia Jingde's lack of explaining this powerful relationship to Song Zhewu earlier. It's just that because he didn't think about the consequences of this incident in advance, he didn't blame Jia Jingde.

Zhao Pilian didn't pay so much attention to it, his face sank, and he said unhappily: "Yuru, this is your fault!" Wen Ge treats you sincerely, take this anti-Yan incident as an example, Wen Ge was afraid that you would be embarrassed, so he didn't let you participate, and even asked me and Qu Yongshan to persuade the students. Since you can see it, why didn't you say it earlier! ”

Regarding Zhao Pilian's accusation, Jia Jingde could only smile wordlessly.

Song Zhewu waved his hand and said, "Mr. Zhiqing, don't blame, Yu Ru was indeed inconvenient to say at that time." If he said that at that time, it is difficult to say whether I can believe it, and it is even possible to suspect that Yuru and Yan Xishan still have an old relationship, he has concerns. ”

Song Zhewu's words moved Jia Jingde very much, but he was a person with a city government, and he would not show his emotions easily, but he took a deep breath, which can be regarded as agreeing with Song Zhewu's statement.

When Song Zhewu began to plan this matter, only Xiao Guodong, Zhao Pilian, He Qigong, Fang Zhen and Wang Xinggang participated, because it was aimed at Yan Xishan, and he was afraid that Jia Jingde would be embarrassed, so he did not consult with him.

The people involved in the planning are all practical talents, and they are not very good at deep-seated political tactics and methods, so it is not surprising that they did not think of the current consequences in advance. Song Zhewu not only thought in his heart, "In the future, I will seriously envelop Jia Jingde, there are too few talents like him now!" ”

However, since he already knew that he had accidentally committed Chairman Chiang's taboo again, if he continued to do it, he would not know the severity.

Everyone was a little unwilling to quietly stop the vigorous and very successful campaign to drive away Yan that they had planned, and to sound the gong and withdraw the troops. However, there is no way to do this, except for Jia Jingde and Fang Zhen, who has rarely spoken, several others have reluctantly suggested that it is better to stop.

Song Zhewu glanced at Jia Jingde inquiringly, Jia Jingde knew that if he didn't suggest anything at this time, it would really be with Song Zhewu from the outside, which would make Song Zhewu really estranged himself from now on.

"I don't agree to just wave my hand."

Jia Jingde's words surprised everyone!

Now that you already know that doing so will cause trouble for Song Zhewu, and even benefit Yan Xishan, why don't you stop?

Jia Jingde analyzed: "Now that the people's opposition to Yan Xishan has been thoroughly stirred, such a hasty end will hurt public opinion." ”

Song Zhewu, who was listening nervously and thinking, didn't notice that Jia Jingde had inadvertently stopped calling Yan Xishan a hundred dukes, but called him by his first name.

Jia Jingde continued: "Although Chairman Jiang and Zhang Xueliang can sit and watch the development of the situation without expressing their position, the person concerned, Yan Xishan, cannot but say that he attaches great importance to the people's will. If Yan Xishan loses the hearts of the people in Shanxi, even if he stays in Shanxi, he will not do anything again, even if the Jin Suijun can keep it, it is a question. ”

"Therefore, we have to hold on a little longer, and we must wait for Yan Xishan to express his position before withdrawing our troops, otherwise it will be too abrupt. Now that there is a lot of trouble in Shanxi, I guess, Yan Xishan will not be able to stand it anymore......"

Sure enough, two days later, Yan Xishan, who had been silent, finally came forward, and he invited reporters from all over Datong to hold a press conference in Yang Aiyuan's headquarters in Datong.

At the meeting, Yan Xishan defended the accusations he had made over the past few days.

First of all, Yan Xishan said that he, a person wanted by the national political axe, would never have any thoughts about returning to Shanxi this time, let alone let his fathers and villagers in Shanxi suffer from the flames of war. He just couldn't bear to leave his father thousands of miles away because his father was seriously ill.

Song Zheyuan said that he Yan Xishan instructed the Jin Sui Army in southern Jin to attack the 29th Army, which was completely vexatious and confusing the public. Don't say that he, Yan Xishan, is just a civilian now, and he can't command the Jin Sui army at all, even if he can command the Jin Sui army, he won't do such a thing.

Yan Xishan also reminded reporters, "Changzhi City was originally garrisoned by the Jin Sui Army, if it was the Jin Sui Army attacking the 29th Army, why is the 29th Army in the city now, but the Jin Sui Army is outside the city." This is all an excuse and quibble by Song Zheyuan to seize the opportunity to encroach on Shanxi's interests and vainly attempt to separate the Changzhi region from Shanxi and take it for his own selfish purposes. ”

Second, he did fly back to Datong on this plane. However, this plane was not provided to him by himself, and he did not have any collusion with the military. The plane was a small civilian cargo plane hired by Yan Xishan for $40,000.

Again, when he arrived in Dalian, he did take 6 million oceans with him, but it was not the money from the provincial bank, but the military expenses that he had already deposited in the provincial bank.

In addition, he actually used 2.9 million in Dalian during the year, and the remaining 3.1 million. When he returned, he did take out 7.4 million ocean promissory notes from Dalian Fuji Bank.

However, the extra 4.3 million yuan was definitely not given to him by Yue himself or anyone else, let alone by him Yan Xishan in exchange for selling Shanxi's interests, but by taking advantage of the opportunity of Yue Yuan's underestimation and sharp fluctuations to speculate and sell Yue Yuan to earn it. If anyone doesn't believe it, they can go to Dalian Fuji Bank to inquire, where he has the root of foreign exchange speculation.

Regarding the fact that the plane he was flying on violated the territorial airspace of the Republic of China, Yan Xishan said with great sincerity, "He was just worried about his father's illness and had no choice but to do it." For this, he is willing to apologize to the Chinese people. ’

Yan Xishan also swore that once his father was over, he would immediately go abroad and leave Shanxi, and would never stay.

As for why he refused to leave Shanxi now, Yan Xishan further said: "Our country is a country of etiquette that has been passed down for thousands of years, and only filial piety is supreme. During his tenure as the principal of Whampoa, Chairman Jiang also personally inscribed the school motto of "Dear and Sincere". The word "dear" means that revolutionary comrades are required to love each other as relatives. Since the chairman of the committee demanded that revolutionary comrades should love each other as relatives, why was he not allowed to be allowed to love his father......

Speaking of emotion, Yan Xishan, who is nearly half a hundred years old, couldn't help but burst into tears and cried bitterly.

This kind of scene, its feelings are sad, its scene makes people can't bear to force each other, the Shanxi reporters at the scene collectively lost their voices, and they couldn't bear to ask questions, and several Shanxi female reporters were even more tearful, unable to control themselves......
