On the afternoon of the end of July of the 21st year of the Republic of China, Wuhan, the capital of the Republic of China.

It had just rained, and the car drove slowly through the wet streets of Hankow, bustling with people along the way. The people of Hankow wore thin and cool summer clothes, and some of them were holding ice cream, and they were surging through the streets. The people in the car watched the prosperous night scene of Hankou for a while, and then slowly closed the curtains.

"As long as the people of China live their own small lives, who will really care about this country?" Hu Yisheng said with some emotion: "What massacre, what kind of judicial, legislative, who really cares?" Fortunately, this Luo Fuwen gave in and softened, otherwise there would really be no way to take him.

"This Luo Fuwen is still a little soft." Xu Chongzhi, who was resting with his eyes closed, smiled lightly: "In the end, it is not as good as Chiang Kai-shek, if Chiang Kai-shek has his strength, maybe he will send troops to fight us!" But that's okay, Luo Fuwen gave a step, and the world is stable. ”

"Hmph, that's his knowledge of current affairs!" Hu Yisheng shook his head disdainfully: "It's not the twelfth year of the Republic of China, it's a peaceful and prosperous era, do they dare to learn from Chen Jiongming?" ”

"Luo Fuwen doesn't need to learn, Chiang Kai-shek doesn't dare to learn." Xu Chongzhi still squinted his eyes, looking like he didn't care about anything, and slowly explained: "How old is Luo Fuwen?" He is twenty years younger than Zhan Gong, and he can become a big president by boiling his qualifications, so what is it to make a step now? "This kid is young and ambitious, and it is not easy to have this Qingming, no wonder the general manager will value him so much." Hu Yisheng couldn't help but praise a few words: "It's just that your brother-in-law Chiang Kai-shek is going to be deflated now, and people would rather give the Executive Yuan to Zhan Gong than give him the Military Intelligence Bureau." "Hehe, that's natural, the Executive Yuan is just a big housekeeper, and the Military Intelligence Bureau is a killer!" How could he, Luo Fuwen, be willing to hand over the killer to Chiang Kai-shek? Isn't this looking for death? Xu Chongzhi opened his eyes and said happily. Then he opened the curtains again and looked at the flow of people walking outside, several white girls in sleeveless skirts happened to pass in front of the car, and the waist of Jiāonèn and the plump Xiong part made him look at him.

The corners of Hu Yisheng's mouth showed a hint of mockery, he knew that this Xu Chongzhi's hobby, big smoke and beauty, and recently, like Luo Yaoguo, he fell in love with plump and white foreign girls...... But it's also strange to say, when did there become so many foreign girls on the streets of Hankou? Uh, it's really beautiful.

"These are Jews, Degu Jews. Xu Chongzhi finally retracted his gaze: "More than three months ago, Hitler became the president of Germany and began to exclude Jews. And those Jews in German companies, schools, and hospitals have been sent to branches, branches, and branches in China to avoid the limelight, and I heard that many of them have been kicked out of the Royal German Wilhelm Academy! It seems that he is also planning to set up a Zhongshan Research Institute in China. "Zhongshan Research Institute!" Hu Yisheng scratched his head, and hurriedly turned sideways to Xu Chongzhi and asked, "What's going on?" What is this research institute researching? And who is the dean? Who pays for it? ”

"Hehe, Hu Suizhai! You haven't officially taken over as the Executive Yuan and you're so concerned? ”

Xu Chongzhi smiled faintly and introduced: "I don't know what the Sun Yat-sen Research Institute researches, but it must be a very good thing...... As for the dean, I heard that it was an old Austrian lady named Lizzem Meitner, who was originally a researcher at the Royal Wilhelm Institute and a professor at the University of Berlin, and was very knowledgeable.

Of course, the funding is provided by the Ministry of Education, but this is a good thing, and it is very good to be able to invite so many world-class scientists to set up research institutes in China. Luo Fuwen did this beautifully! ”

Hu Yisheng also nodded, he also stayed in Japan for a few years to study, and he also heard about Western science and technology. The Royal Wilhelmsman Institute in Germany is now the world's number one scientific research institution, and the fact that it can send talents to China to run schools proves that China under the leadership of the national "government" has not only been recognized internationally, but also by international university scholars!

For the people of China, who are a little bit admiring the West and attach more importance to intellectuals, it is a sign of the peace and prosperity of the country. In the end, this research institute can't even study anything, and it's good to just use it to whitewash the peace.

"This nose is still hard-won." Hu Yisheng said with a solemn sigh: "If you can finalize it with Luo Yichen and Luo Fuwen today, this peaceful and prosperous era will last for at least ten years, right?" Chongzhi replied softly, he knew what Hu Yisheng's ten-year period meant? From the bottom of his heart, he said that he didn't want to fight any world war, but the mainstream of the military had such thoughts. Those people have climbed up from repeated internal and external wars by relying on military merits. Moreover, the Battle of Shandong and the 9.18 War ended in great victories, and the casualties paid by the National Revolution Army were not large.

Of course, those young Zhuang officers did not see the cruelty of the war, and only wanted to make meritorious contributions. If the political leaders are going to block them...... I'm afraid that these people won't mind putting the country under the dictatorship of Luo Yaoguo or Chiang Kai-shek, right?

Hu Yisheng glanced at Xu Chongzhi lightly, although Xu Chongzhi was also a soldier, he did not approve of the road of aggression and expansion advocated by Luo Yaoguo, and Hu Hanmin did not approve of such a rich one. They all want to regain control of the military, which has always been on its own, under the control of the national "government", and turn the national army into an army owned by the national "government", rather than allowing the national army to own the national "government". This time, Luo Yaoguo's uncle and nephew gave up the Executive Yuan, which can be said to have partially satisfied their purpose, and then Hu Hanmin and Xu Chongzhi hoped that through cooperation with Luo Yaoguo, the National Revolutionary Army could be completely controlled, lest this army become the same as the Japanese Army.

At this time, the car drove through two more streets, and then drove into a small courtyard, which was the residence of Lu Ming, vice minister of armaments, in Wuhan. The four of them stood in the courtyard and exchanged a few words before entering the house together.

The furnishings in the house are relatively simple, and Lu Ming's German wife and children are all in Lushan to escape the summer. Lu Ming was also in Lushan some time ago, and he just returned to Wuhan with Sun Ke in the past two days.

Lu Ming took out a bottle of Heinkel champagne from the wine cabinet, carried four goblets in his left hand, and put the glasses on the coffee table: "This is Fuwen brought back from Germany, he used to live in the villa of the son-in-law of the owner of this Heinkel winery when he was in Berlin, Germany. Luo Yaoguo was the first to pick up the glass, shook it gently, then took a big sip and said with a smile: "The German champagne is actually very good, and the taste is no worse than that of the French." ”

"Wine is not the way you drink it." Xu Chongzhi shook his head with a wry smile, picked up the wine glass and sniffed it first, then took a small sip lightly, and tasted his fragrance between his teeth before swallowing: "Well, it is indeed a boutique!" Better than all the French wines I've ever drunk. Brother Fuwen, do you still have anything at home? Can you send a few boxes to my brother? ”

Luo Yaoguo laughed and said, "No problem, I'll ask someone to send you two boxes when I go back." As he spoke, he took another glass and drank it down: "German wine may be inferior to France, but those French people don't bring out the really good things." Therefore, you will not be able to taste the real French wine. "German things are good, but the price we have to pay is not low." Hu Yisheng took a small sip of it, then put the cup on the coffee table and smoked his cigar. He is Hu Hanmin's confidant and the secretary general of the Kuomintang, so he naturally knows all the inside stories of Sino-German cooperation, and also knows all the secret clauses of the "Anti-GC International Treaty".

"Don't talk about that." Xu Chongzhi waved his hand at Hu Yisheng, and said: "Fuwen, Hu Zhangong has promised to come forward to settle the "Northwest Youth Army incident." In the past two days, the newspapers on our territory have stopped mentioning this matter. Moreover, the four ministers of foreign affairs, construction, justice, and energy also did not move, and Ju Juesheng served as the chairman of Hubei Province. ”

Luo Yaoguo smiled slightly when he heard this, and was about to speak, when there was a sound of cars outside the door, several people knew that Luo Yiqun had arrived, and they hurriedly got up and went out to greet them, and a BMW car produced in China stopped at the door, and a middle-aged man wearing a gray Sè short-sleeved shirt came down from the car, and a pair of gold-rimmed glasses were framed on his nose, which was Luo Yiqun, the executive premier.

"Brother Yichen, I'm waiting for you." Xu Chongzhi stepped forward and hugged Luo Yiqun.

"You are the brother, the brother of Suizhai, the auxiliary text, the Ziyan." Luo Yiqun happily said hello to a few.

"Yichen, Lord Hu has already agreed to your request." Hu Yisheng stepped forward and grabbed Luo Yiqun's hand, looking a little excited: "From now on, we will be our own people." The affairs of the Northwest will also be undertaken by President Hu. ”

"Hehe, General He Jingzhi said the same thing just now." Luo Yiqun had a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, and his eyes flickered behind the lenses.

"How do you say that?" Xu Chongzhi asked in the same place.

Luo Yiqun was about to answer, Luo Yaoguo said repeatedly: "Say in the house, say in the house, let's talk while drinking."

A few people talked and laughed and entered the house, Lu Ming took out another cup and poured a glass of wine for Luo Yiqun, Luo Yiqun picked up the wine glass with a smile and took a sip. wine, smiled and explained: "He Jingzhi came here again just now, he brought Lao Jiang's latest price code, he wants the deputy director of the Military Intelligence Bureau, but we want us to hand over the Central Investigation Bureau of the Ministry of Police and the Ministry of Police to him." It seems that Chairman Chiang has no intelligence agency, so it is still inconvenient to get things done. ”

"Then it seems that Brother Yichen did not agree to Chiang Kai-shek's conditions?" Xu Chongzhi said lightly: "This condition is much more preferential than the one offered by Hu Zhangong. ”

"Alas, concessions are concessions, but we and Chiang Kai-shek have no way to cooperate. His foundation is the army, and our foundation is also in the military. Our cooperation with Zhangong is a military-political alliance, which is enough to grasp the overall situation. If we cooperate with Jiegong, it is still a situation of discord between the military and the government.

It is not good for the country or the party. Luo Yiqun explained with a smile.

"Military-political cooperation, hehe, well said, well said." Xu Chongzhi regained his happy appearance and sipped again. wine, and then asked Luo Yiqun: "Then speaking of which, do you agree to cooperate with us and take charge of the overall situation together?" ”

After Luo Yiqun glanced at his nephew Luo Yaoguo, he lowered his head emphatically: "That's right, the [China] country behind the wing is the leader of Zhangong to maintain you and me together." ”

As a matter of fact, everyone knows that China is still in the era of power with the barrel of a gun, and the people-oriented constitutional government has not yet been truly established. What Hu Hanmin and Xu Chongzhi's alliance lacks is the support of the gun, although Xu Chongzhi still has a certain influence in the military. However, his followers have now gradually been squeezed out of the core of the army by those elites who came out of the Huangpu Lu University. There is no longer the strength to continue to escort Hu Hanmin's regime. these years. Hu Hanmin was able to maintain the situation by relying on the confrontation between Chiang Kai-shek and Luo Yaoguo. And this time, it took advantage of the struggle between the two major factions of Chiang and Luo to take back the key department of the Executive Yuan, which cannot but be said to be a major victory.

The night was already very deep. A cup of tea has lost its heat. Chiang Kai-shek was still hunched over his desk, looking at the mountains of reports. There was a sudden knock on the office door, and Chiang Kai-shek thought it was Chiang Xiaoxian who had sent a new batch of official documents. Raising his head and rubbing his shoulders: "Come in!" It was Yang Yongtai who pushed the door in, but his face was very worried, and he seemed to know that he hadn't slept yet. The robe on his body was still neatly dressed, and his brows were deeply locked, showing that this Yang Dajun's late night visit was very unusual. Chiang Kai-shek also stood up in surprise: "Changqing, why are you here?" Could it be that something has happened in Wuhan? He keenly felt that there must be some agreement between Luo Yaoguo in Wuhan and Hu Hanmin, who was still in Lushan! That's what worries him most right now.

Yang Yongtai nodded silently and said in a low voice: "Commission, it is true that some changes have taken place in Wuhan, I just received the news that Luo Yiqun has submitted his resignation to Hu Hanmin to resign as the premier, and at the same time, Xu Chongzhi has also submitted his resignation to resign as the deputy chairman of the national 'government', and it seems that he is going to make room for Luo Yiqun." And Lin Sen also resigned from the errand of the Legislative Council......"

Chiang Kai-shek took a deep breath and looked incredulous: "Changqing, you mean that Luo Yaoguo and Luo Yiqun really gave up the Executive Yuan to compromise with Hu Hanmin!" Why is that? Yang Yongtai smiled bitterly: "This Luo Fuwen always does things unexpectedly, but after a few years, you will find that his decisions are sometimes very forward-looking, and I have a hunch that this time will be like that." ”

"I don't understand, I don't understand" Chiang Kai-shek's face suddenly changed: "Changqing, do you think Luo Yaoguo will join forces with Hu Hanmin to deal with me?" If you overthrow me, the military power will all belong to him alone, and then overthrow Hu Hanmin and usurp power? For this analysis, Yang Yongtai disagreed, he shook his head solemnly: "Probably not, Hu Hanmin is not so stupid, handing over military power to one person, and Luo Yaoguo will not do this, he has always paid attention to the unity of the party, and rarely takes progressive means but likes to use a gradual way to slowly achieve the goal." This is true of the reunification of China and social reforms, which have been carried out slowly and steadily step by step. ”

"It makes sense, Luo Yaoguo is not the kind of gambler who likes to gamble, and Hu Zhantang is not a fool, so what should we do now?" Chiang Kai-shek breathed a sigh of relief. If Luo Yaoguo and Hu Hanmin joined forces to deal with him at this time, he would probably want to oust people. At present, the infantry divisions of the Kuomintang are indeed not as effective as the Intelligence Bureau in the internal struggle.

"Jiegong, the ministry thought that Luo Yaoguo did this to suppress you." Yang Yongtai's eyebrows and hairs were tightly twisted, obviously after hard thinking: "Hu Zhantang and Xu Ruwei are already dry bones in the grave, even if they get the Executive Yuan, they can't recover the decline, and you are the only one who can compete with him for the big position in the future, so he wants to unite Hu and Xu...... But what means he wants to suppress you and how to grab the supreme power in his hands, I can't see it now......" Listening to Yang Yongtai's analysis, Chiang Kai-shek's face became heavier and heavier, and he slapped the table: "The soldiers will block, and the water will cover the earth, I don't believe that I will lose to him as a junior!" Pass my order and let Luo Fuwen come to Lushan to see me! Yang Yongtai lowered his head and wrote it down, and Chiang Kai-shek knocked on the table with his fingers hurriedly: "Just tell Luo Yaoguo that I want to discuss the Northwest incident and the Central G with him."

Resist the solution of these two things to the central government! ”

Yang Yongtai glanced at Chiang Kai-shek and thought for a while: "Jiegong, the northwest incident can only be handled in a low-key manner, since Hu Hanmin has already compromised with Luo Yaoguo, we can't bite anymore, and we can't bite anymore...... The power of press control is in their hands, and as long as the newspapers are not published, the common people will soon forget about the affairs in the northwest. As for what happened to Zhong G, he could give the topic to Luo Yaoguo. ”

"Lou Si is ......," Chiang Kai-shek asked.

Yang Yongtai smiled deeply: "The affairs of Zhong G have always been very striking, such as this time,

Legislative Power Struggle...... The central government no longer has much room for concessions, and it is impossible to recognize the judicial and legislative independence of the localities in the six northern provinces. Therefore, as long as China G does not give in, it is inevitable that there will always be a battle in the end, if Luo Yaoguo is fully responsible for handling this matter, then he will naturally be the one who will take command of the expedition. At that time, the war in the north will inevitably drag on for a long time, and Jiegong will be able to take the opportunity to stabilize our position in Wuhan. Repair relations with Hu Hanmin. Chiang Kai-shek's eyes rolled slightly, and it seemed that in an instant, countless thoughts were born and died in his mind, not stopping to weigh the current situation. Finally, he looked at Yang Yongtai: "Changqing, let's go back to Wuhan in person and assign tasks to him in person...... Moreover, I also want to talk to him about the "Anti-GC International Agreement", as far as I know, Hu Hanmin is not very supportive of this war! (To be continued...)
