Chapter 433: Principal Jiang and Xue Yue
Seeing Xue Yue running all the way back to Chongqing from Changsha to sue Li Tie for his misdeeds, Commander Jiang had a feeling of hating iron and not steel:
"When has this been, seeing that most of China has been occupied by the Japanese, and now the Japanese are organizing preparations to attack Hunan, if Hunan is occupied by the Japanese again, it will be Sichuan's turn. If Sichuan is occupied again, where will you let me evacuate, and if I withdraw to Tibet? ”
Commander Jiang rarely used the lion's roar skill on Xue Yue, and Xue Yue, who was shocked, was careful and his liver fluttered and fluttered. Xue Yue, who thought that he was dedicated to the great cause of the party and the state, immediately called out for the collision with the sky.
"Headmaster, it's not that his subordinates slander Li Tie, it's that he Li Tie is too arrogant, and I sent people to Hainan just to ask him for more arms, which is also for the great cause of the party-state to resist Japan. But what did he do to my people?
He almost shot my envoy and yelled that if I asked him for arms again, he would bring men to kill me. Is this what a state leader should say? This is what a ruffian can only say!
As you know, almost all of our domestic and foreign outlets to the sea have been blocked by the Japanese army, and the original major arsenals in China have all been occupied or blown up by the Japanese army.
Nowadays, who does not know that there is a huge arsenal in the Huaxing Industrial City in Chongqing, which is the only one in China, and at the time of this national crisis, he Li Tie did not want to serve the country, and took the initiative to donate the arsenal to the country.
Not to mention anything else, Zhang Xueliang and Yang Hucheng were rescued, who didn't know that he Li Tie was the most suspicious, a few months ago, Li Zongren and Bai Chongxi secretly went to Vietnam, saying what it was to go abroad for treatment.
The Vietnamese can't even get enough to eat, where are their doctors, I have already sent someone to inquire clearly, and now there are tens of thousands of troops on the Vietnamese border undergoing military training, and the leaders are Yang Hucheng and Bai Fengxiang, who were rescued.
Principal, Li Tie hid such a big thing from you, which shows that his ambition is not small, you can guard against him, now the whole of China, he has money, people, and territory.
He also has good relations with the great powers of various countries, and we have to guard against him from seeking power. "This Xue Yue may also really care about Commander Jiang, and what he said from the bottom of his heart is extremely touching.
It's a pity that Commander Jiang didn't seem to appreciate it, Commander Jiang squinted his eyes, stared at Xue Yue tightly and said, "You said that Li Tie has different ambitions? Do you know how much money Li Tie has donated to our national government in recent years?
Do you know how much ammunition their Huaxing Company donated to the government in order to maintain the necessary ammunition consumption of our army?
Do you know that if it weren't for his guards guarding the Chongqing Industrial City and not letting our bigwigs interfere, our last arsenal in China would have been annexed by these bigwigs.
Do you think you reported the number of 500,000 troops to Li Tie, but Li Tie doesn't know the specific number of your army if he is not in Changsha? You use migrant workers to pretend to be regular soldiers, don't say I know, even the Japanese know, you say you can hide it from Li Tie?
Now that you know that Li Tieneng rescued Zhang Xueliang and Yang Hucheng unconsciously, do you guess what you do every day?
You still have the face to sue him here, you hooked up with the wife of a professor at Chongqing University on the third day you arrived in Chongqing, and you also enlarged someone's belly, and it was Li Tie who sent someone to help you suppress this ugly matter.
How much military salary have you embezzled in the past few months in Changsha, and how much project money has been deducted, do you think no one else knows? I see that you are a generation of generals, and you have followed me for more than ten years, and I only turned a blind eye to your repeated military exploits for me and countless meritorious contributions to the national army's southern and northern wars.
I have always allowed you in the view that people can do big things without being informal, and big things can have small flaws.
But you're good, you're getting more and more excessive, in order to retaliate for Li Tie for not accepting your blackmail, you even came to me to complain. ”
As soon as Xue Yue heard that the principal even knew about his deduction of food and salary and embezzlement of project funds, he was so frightened that he didn't dare to come out with one, and shouted again and again that his humble position should be damned, and his humble position failed the principal's cultivation.
Commander Jiang ignored Xue Yue's begging for mercy, grasping the handle of his subordinates and strictly controlling it was his usual means of governing the army and employing people. He is not afraid that there is something wrong with his subordinates, as long as this problem is under the nose of Commander Jiang, he will not care, because he can use these problems at any time to drive disobedient generals into the bottomless abyss.
Whether it is Xue Yue, Wei Lihuang, or Zhang Lingfu in front of him, these generals who can fight well all have all kinds of handles in the hands of Commander Jiang. Therefore, these generals are all die-hard loyalists of Commander Chiang, and Commander Chiang told them to go east, and they would never dare to go west.
Seeing that Xue Yue in front of him was almost beaten, Commander Jiang threw a few telegrams in front of Xue Yue: "Here is a letter of apology written to me by Yang Hucheng.
There is also a letter of repentance that Yang Hucheng is ready to publicly apologize to the people in newspapers across the country, and there is also a letter of repentance signed by Li Tie and Yang Hucheng.
They trained 20,000 Guangxi soldiers in Vietnam, and now they are ready to send them to Changsha to help you defend the city, and these 20,000 Guangxi soldiers were bought by them from Li Zongren and Bai Chongxi.
Not only that, in the past few years, Li Tie has not officially established an army in other places in China except Hainan, and he is afraid that I will be suspicious of him, and as for him spending money from various bigwigs, whether it is renting or buying, all the soldiers are not his.
Just like the 20,000 Guangxi soldiers, he will use them within ten years, and he will return them to Li Zongren and Bai Chongxi ten years later, including in Sichuan, he also rented 100,000 Sichuan troops from Liu Wenhui, he reported these things to me in advance, and his purpose was to resist the war. None of these soldiers really belonged to him.
As for the 50,000 elite soldiers on Hainan Island, do you think it is possible to rely on 50,000 elite soldiers if you want to dominate China? ”
"Of course, it is impossible to rely on 50,000 elite soldiers, but is Li Tie so great? He has done so many things that he has paid for and contributed to his own efforts, which really does not benefit him at all, does he really have no conspiracy at all? Xue Yue still doubted Li Tie's character.
Although it is impossible to overthrow the rule of Commander Chiang, but after striving to become Commander Chiang, there is still a great possibility for the people of all China to speak.
"Li Tie's foundation in China is too shallow, he just has experienced harm, and it is already his limit to be the head of a province, but you are different. You are all Whampoa elites who have followed me for many years, as long as you support each other, the future of China will be yours. Commander Jiang said earnestly.
"Principal, you can't say that, the students will always support you." Xue Yue was secretly happy in his heart, and he didn't dare to show any joy on his face, but on the surface, he was anxious and loyal to Commander Jiang.
"Okay, don't be modest anymore, looking at the Whampoa family, there are only those two or three people who can compete with you, and now is the time to compete with the Japanese army, and it is also the time for you to become famous in the world.
If you can defeat the Japanese army in Changsha, it will not only enhance the confidence of the people in resisting Japan, but also enhance the national prestige of our country, and add to your brilliant resume. Who will be your opponent in the future? Commander Jiang encouraged Xue Yue.
Hearing Commander Jiang say this, Xue Yue's eyes lit up, "Yes!" Since the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, the Nationalist Army has not won any battle, even if there have been several major victories in some parts, but they have not reached a situation that affects the victory or defeat of the whole country.
Now it is different, seeing that the Japanese army has gathered three divisions and two brigades around Changsha, with a total strength of more than 100,000 troops, and the national army that can be directly mobilized by itself is as much as 300,000.
In addition, 200,000 migrant workers, after half a year of construction of fortifications, and Li Tie's assistance of 300,000 rifles, and hundreds of planes in Chongqing to help in the war. If this can't defeat the Japanese army again, it seems too much to say.
And once he withstood the Japanese attack in Changsha, and even defeated the Japanese army, he became the first national hero to defeat the Japanese army.
He will become the first general of the national government, and he has been in charge of politics for many years, and he is a meritorious person of the national government. A few years later, he was not the most suitable successor to Commander Chiang.
The more I thought about it, the more I felt that the opportunity could not be lost, and Xue Yue, who was no longer in the future, finally began to officially take the position of commander-in-chief of Changsha's defense.
He immediately resigned to Commander Chiang and vowed to live and die with Changsha. And Commander Jiang saw that Xue Yue had finally opened his mind, and knew that as long as the Battle of Changsha was fought, his future would be limitless. I can be regarded as a successful general.
However, just as Xue Yue was about to walk out of Commander Jiang's office and return to Changsha, Commander Jiang stopped Xue Yue again, and he came to Xue Yue's side. Quietly called Xue Yue to his side: "Yang Hucheng is going to Changsha to help defend the city, and we can't stop him, but his military rank is equivalent to yours, and his qualifications are indeed older than yours, I am afraid that having him in Changsha is not conducive to your leadership of all troops."
I will arrange for Dai Li to come forward, he will find an opportunity to arrange an accident, as long as Yang Hucheng dies, I will issue a warrant for you to take care of Li Tie, a Guangxi soldier.
At that time, whether you can completely subdue these Guangxi wolf soldiers depends on your ability. ”
Xue Yue heard that Commander Jiang was still praising Li Tie and Yang Hucheng in front of him on the front foot, and he designed to kill Yang Hucheng on the back foot, and he could easily swallow Li Tie's Guangxi soldiers who had spent a lot of money. Xue Yue felt his scalp tingle and was dripping with cold sweat.
"This principal's methods are too painful, I must be very careful in the future, and always ensure that I am highly consistent with Commander Jiang, otherwise I am afraid that I will die and I don't know.
It seems that the gap between himself and the principal is still too big, and when he returns to Changsha, he must fight this battle with his heart, leave a good impression on the principal, and also add some political chips to his future.
As soon as he got off the plane, he received an urgent telegram from Li Tie in Hainan, saying that Yang Hucheng's unit of the Third Army of the Hainan Escort Army had set off from Vietnam a few days ago and was expected to arrive in Changsha in seven days.
However, because Yang Hucheng was old and had just been ill, it was Bai Fengxiang, the deputy army commander, who led the Third Army of Hainan to support the Battle of Changsha this time.
Seeing the telegram in his hand, Xue Yue was a little distressed, "What can I do?" If Yang Hucheng doesn't come, there will be no way to kill him, and if he can't kill him, there will be no way to eat the Third Army of Hainan. It seems that the task arranged by the principal to take the opportunity to annex the Third Army in Hainan cannot be completed.
This is how man is not as good as heaven. ”
