At the same time that the Kuomintang delegation went north to Tianjin and stayed at the Six Nations Hotel. A train from Yanjing was dragging billowing black smoke on the Tianjin-Beijing railway, and the Kuomintang leftist leaders Liao Zhongkai and Deng Yanda were on this train at this time, accompanied by two leaders of GCD, Zhou Elai and Li Dazhao, who were also on their way to Tianjin.

The four leaders, along with a dozen guards and attachés, chartered a carriage. Liao Zhongkai sat in the window seat, drinking tea while looking at the white expanse outside the window. It has just snowed in the Beijing-Tianjin area, and the silver-white snowflakes have covered the entire land, it seems that the coming year will be a good year, maybe the supply situation of Feng Yuxiang's army will be much better by then, right? Although the Soviets generously provided Feng Yuxiang with weapons and ammunition, they did not have much spare power in terms of funds, after all, the Soviet Union had just ended the civil war and was still in extreme difficulty. Since there is not enough money to maintain expenses, Feng Yuxiang's 100,000 troops are now almost on the verge of running out of food, and as for military salaries, nothing can be issued this month except those waste paper-like banknotes.

Thinking of this, Liao Zhongkai let out a long sigh. His trip to Tianjin, in addition to welcoming the northbound delegation, was to raise a little military expenses for Feng Yuxiang. Now I am afraid that the only person who can provide funds to Feng Yuxiang is the national political axe that occupies the plastered land in the south. However, this money bag is now in the hands of the rightists of the Kuomintang, will Hu Hanmin and the villain Wang Jingwei promise to give money? Besides, how are you going to open this mouth?

"Liao Gong, what do you want?"

When Liao Zhongkai heard the voice, he found that Zhou Elai and Deng Yanda didn't know when they sat opposite him. He owed a slight debt to the two of them, and his face showed a little smile.

"Come on, you're just in time, I have something to discuss with you." Liao Zhongkai put down the teacup in his hand, and his tone was a little dignified. "Now General Feng Huanzhang's army is very difficult, it is not a way to go on like this, can your party take more help?" This month, the GCD squeezed out 50,000 oceans from their very difficult funds and gave Feng Yuxiang to maintain the army.

Without waiting for Zhou E to speak, Deng Yanda answered first, he said: "Liao Gong, GCD is already very difficult for them, how can they make them pay again?" This money should be paid by those rightists, and now they occupy half of China, and they have engaged in the reading power customs area, and they are not rich enough to stay in oil? Speaking of these Kuomintang rightists, Deng Yanda was also eager to bite off a few pieces of meat from them, and this group of misers never gave a dime to his National Revolutionary Army's northern general headquarters, not even his own salary, on the grounds that he refused to go to work at the Engineer Headquarters.

Zhou Elai didn't know how to answer. If the Kuomintang is now the central power, Feng Yuxiang's difficulty will of course have to be paid for by them. But now that the Kuomintang is not the Central Committee, and Feng Yuxiang is not affiliated with the Kuomintang, how can you let Zhou Elai open this mouth? Moreover, the Kuomintang delegation has now brought 10 million to help Feng Yuxiang in the election, which is already a good friend.

Seeing that Zhou Elai was silent, Liao Zhongkai's heart sank, Feng Yuxiang is not GCD now, and GCD has no obligation to solve financial difficulties for him. Besides, the senior officers under Feng Yuxiang all live a luxurious life, and there are a lot of wives and maids in the family, and they either play mahjong or listen to big dramas every day. Thinking of this, Liao Zhongkai shook his head and said, "It would be nice if Feng Yuxiang's officers could be like your party." ”

The GCD is now supplied by officers and soldiers in one piece, and officers and soldiers are all five yuan a month, and 50,000 Red Army soldiers can spend as much as 250,000 yuan a month. These funds can be sustained for a long time by the forfeiture of the Chahar land reform, and the peasants who are allocated to the land are also very motivated to pay public grain.

"Humph! I saw that the way forward was to carry out the agrarian revolution in Yanjing and Zhili, and at the same time to reorganize Feng Yuxiang's army and turn them into a revolutionary army like the Red Army. Deng Yanda was a little excited, he had been with the Red Army for a long time, and he was deeply moved that the Red Army's system was definitely stronger than the mercenaries of the Kuomintang and the Beiyang warlords.

After listening to Deng Yanda's words, Zhou Elai nodded appreciatively. "It would be nice if General Feng Huanzhang had the consciousness of choosing a life. However, what needs to be solved now is the joint political axe, and as long as the joint political axe is formed, we can recover the benefits that the imperialists have seized from China, and then we will be able to solve Feng Huanzhang's economic difficulties. ”

Liao Zhongkai shook his head with a wry smile and said, "How much benefit can imperialism grab from General Huanzhang's little bit of territory?" Even if they spit out, it is not enough for his army of 100,000 to sustain it. ”

"When the time comes, the United Political Axe will be able to take the customs duties and salt taxes in various places in your hands with a single order, are you still afraid that there will be no money?" Li Dazhao's loud voice suddenly sounded, and it turned out that he had also been listening to it for a while.

"A piece of paper?" Liao Zhongkai really doesn't know what to say, he has been dealing with the warlords at the end of the Kuomintang in the past, those lawless guys, your orders are beneficial to them, they can still listen to them, your orders are not good for them, hehe, it's strange not to meet you in arms.

"Yes, as long as the United Axe is formed, everything will be solved." Deng Yanda quite agreed with Li Dazhao's proposal, he said with a smile: "Customs duties and salt taxes have always been collected by the central government, and as soon as the joint political axe is established, it will be the central political axe on behalf of all the people, and it is only natural to take back the two taxes on customs and salt, and whoever dares to disobey us will raise troops to fight against it." "By Deng Yanda, we mean the GCD, the Kuomintang, and Feng Yuxiang's Nationalist Army.

"Well, let's think about how we're going to live." Liao Zhongkai's expression was serious, and his psychology was very clear, it was unrealistic to turn Feng Yuxiang's troops into a real revolutionary army, because Feng Yuxiang was also a big warlord coaxing a small warlord, and his division commanders, brigade commanders, and even regiment commanders could pull their troops away. So Feng Yuxiang also has to coax them, can't be too demanding, in fact, now Feng treats his subordinates harshly enough, and after a little while, I am afraid that someone will pull the troops to join Zhang Zuolin.

"Right now, Duke Liao, can you send a telegram to Premier Sun in Guangzhou?" Zhou Elai looked at Liao Zhongkai with some expectation. "Now there is only trouble for Premier Sun, and the National Army is also responding to his call to implement the national revolution! If General Feng's Nationalist Army fails, and the reactionary warlords supported by imperialism can return to Yanjing and then unite to attack the Nationalists in the south, will the Kuomintang be able to guarantee victory over the combined offensive of the reactionary forces at home and abroad? ”

Liao Zhongkai was stunned when he heard this, thought about it carefully, and found that what Zhou E said made sense. Now the Kuomintang now appears to have taken advantage of the richest territory in China, and has also won back a lot of benefits from the foreign powers. But can the great powers give up? Can the Beiyang warlords watch the Kuomintang eat alone? As long as they were free to join forces to attack, the KMT's rule in the south was likely to be wiped out.

"Okay, when I arrive in Tianjin, I will send a telegram to the prime minister, asking him to give an equal part of the revenue from the national government to Feng Huanzhang's national army." Liao Zhongkai thought clearly about the stakes and immediately decided to advise Sun Yat-sen.

"Great, with Liao Gong's advice, Premier Sun will definitely understand that Feng Huanzhang's national army is a vital link in the national revolution. As long as we have Premier Sun's support, we will definitely be able to defeat the Beiyang warlords and realize the national revolution. However, what if the prime minister is surrounded by rightists, and Liao Gong's advice does not reach his old man's house? Not long ago, the rightists of the Kuomintang took advantage of the critical illness of Mr. Zhongshan to reach the "Secret Treaty of Guangzhou" with the imperialists to humiliate the country.

"It doesn't matter." Liao Zhongkai waved his hand confidently. "When I arrived in Tianjin, I sent a telegram to the prime minister in the name of the Kuomintang delegation to the north, so that they would not dare to stop it. Moreover, this time the delegation to the north also brought 10 million fiat currency, and I can first embezzle it to support General Huanzhang's army. ”

"Okay, let's do it." Zhou Elai breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, Feng Yuxiang's army of 100,000 was finally adopted. It is unrealistic to rely on GCD to carry this big burden, and the Soviet Union is unwilling to help Feng Yuxiang solve the difficulty of military salary. Because this expense is simply a bottomless pit, Feng Yuxiang only had more than 20,000 people before entering Yanjing, and in just over two months, he developed an army of 100,000, if someone is willing to help pay the army, maybe it won't take long to become a million army.
