Chapter 34: An Audience at the Residence
Chiang Kai-shek's sudden departure from the field was expected by many people, and at the same time, it was also unexpected by many people, that is, this step of this Jiang Gong to retreat is too clever, at least for the responsibility of the three northeastern provinces, he has become an outsider, but this outsider is in charge of the affairs of the insiders? Perhaps things in China are so wonderful in the eyes of foreigners.
Just like Georg Verzell, the general adviser of the German Affairs Advisory Group, the unpredictable political form of China gave him a headache, and George Verzell was the first senior German general of the Wehrmacht to leave his post after the German World War to serve as the general adviser of the Chinese side, for which Chiang Kai-shek paid great attention, and what Chiang Kai-shek appreciated most was Georg Verzell's personal loyalty to him.
Zhang Xuewu, who arrived in Nanjing and had not yet gone to Lu University to report, prepared two bottles of red wine at this moment, and prepared to meet Jiang Gong, who was not concerned about the world in Nanjing, and then went to Lu University to report, because Zhang Xuewu remembered that Sun Ke's short-lived political axe cabinet only lasted 25 days in history, and the most important thing was the famous Shanghai in history. The 28th "incident is about to break out.
Zhang Xuewu's visit coincided with the visit of General Counsel George Futzel, who glanced meaningfully at an army colonel who was wearing a straight military uniform and standing in an extremely standard posture without squinting.
Before this, George Futzel had seen a lot of Chinese [***] people, including the Whampoa officers who were self-proclaimed as elite by his chairman, George Futzel once told Chiang Kai-shek with great regret that the teaching level of the Whampoa Military Academy and the Army University was only equivalent to the ordinary non-commissioned officer schools in Germany, and it may be possible to count on these schools to cultivate outstanding tactical talents, and if you want to cultivate excellent strategic talents, it can only depend on the talent of the cadets and God bless, so under his suggestion, the Ministry of Military Affairs began to prepare for the establishment of a staff university.
What the [***] people gave to Georg Verzell the most was tactfulness and lacked the backbone of a soldier, and they seemed to prefer a kind of communication with their superiors that the Germans did not understand?
And Georg Verzell felt a hint of the smell of virtue from the body of the army colonel standing in the living room of the villa! Georg Verzell knew that some officers in the Central Army had attended relevant military academies in Ben, the United States, and Germany, and such a young colonel immediately aroused Georg Fotzel's interest.
At this moment, in the small living room, Chiang Kai-shek was having a secret conversation with Zhang Qun, so it was a secret conversation, and it was also some inconsequential matter, Zhang Qun reported to Chiang Kai-shek Zhang Xuewu's attitude and reaction, and before that, Chiang Kai-shek had received Kang Ze's report and suggestions on this matter.
Chiang Kai-shek also knew that he could not be called a good use of people, and the purpose of co-opting Zhang Xuewu was to drive a nail into the Northeast Army, and at the same time, it was also to show an attitude, which was to form a unified Wehrmacht in accordance with the plan of the German advisory group without discrimination, and secretly to divide and win over the more than 200,000 Northeast Army entrenched in Rehe and Pingjin.
The Fengjun group is the largest feudal town in the country, and the ultimate goal of establishing a unified national defense force is to unify the armed forces in the hands of the central government, but George Futzel's reorganization plan was previously resisted by Zhang Xueliang, Feng Yuxiang, Yan Xishan, Bai Chongxi, Li Zongren, Chen Jitang, Liu Xiang, etc., and among these factions, except for the Sichuan army busy with internal strife, the rest of the factions all look at Zhang Xueliang's wind situation, which is also the ultimate reason why Chiang Kai-shek is eager to cut the feudal domain.
The fall of Sun Ke's cabinet may be in the near future, and his cooperation with Wang Zhaoming is also going smoothly, Wang Zhaoming is the president of the Executive Yuan of the National Political Axe, and the post of foreign minister is also handed over to Wang Zhaoming, and he is the chairman of the Military Committee of the National Political Axe, and the powerless Kuomintang veteran Yang Sen is the chairman of the National Political Axe!
In this way, not only did the party and the outside party reach a unanimous balance, but even Wang Zhaoming's gang Chen Gongbo, Zhou Fohai and others were all happy.
Georg Verzell's visit unexpectedly met Zhang Xuewu, this person who had his own heart to be simple, actually had the heart to come to meet him during his time in the wilderness? Is it to see the general trend, or is it an ulterior motive? After all, Zhang Xuewu is Zhang Xueliang's cousin, and Zhang Xueliang is Chiang Kai-shek's biggest confidant.
Chiang Kai-shek hesitated for a while, and decided to summon George Futzel and Zhang Xuewu at the same time, he decided to take the school Zhang Xuewu, if Zhang Xuewu is just a son who is more affectionate than reasonable, then Chiang Kai-shek can also give Zhang Xuewu a position, if Zhang Xuewu is really as Zhang Qun and Kang Ze said, then for the talents who are willing to be loyal to themselves and serve the political axe of the Republic of China, Chiang Kai-shek will also give an eclectic promotion, so everything depends on Zhang Xuewu's performance, with George Futzel present, Chiang Kai-shek believed that the general adviser of the German Affairs Advisory Group, who was absolutely loyal to him, would definitely give him a very good advice.
In the small living room on the second floor of Chiang Kai-shek, several pots of autumn chrysanthemums are still competing to open, and the mahogany table and Taishi chair of the Ming Dynasty with a red look look so incompatible with the popular Italian upholstered thick leather sofa on the side? Obviously, the desk and the Taishi chair were Chiang Kai-shek's favorites, and the pair of long milky white sofas were Madame Chiang's proud works, just like China in this era, full of imported products and even imported spirits!
After George Futzel and Zhang Xuewu entered the small living room, George Futzel naturally sat on the sofa he liked very much, but Zhang Xuewu stood upright, George Futzel's Chinese was not very good, so wherever he went, he always took the translator Miss Mary.
With blonde hair and blue eyes, Mary, who is typical of Earman blood, looked at the young man who was standing and waiting, and was slightly stunned, and came in and the newspaper published too many photos of Zhang Xuewu, this person who started a resistance in Shenyang and said that he was the first to add a lot of trouble to the German advisory group, but it is understandable that as a soldier, although he violated the military order, he at least fulfilled the duty of a soldier, that is, to defend the country.
Chiang Kai-shek's first intuitive impression of Zhang Xuewu was with a modest smile, this smile made people feel very comfortable, thinking that Chiang Kai-shek was a very easy person to get along with, Chiang Kai-shek nodded lightly, put his cane next to the Taishi chair, and sat down in a very casual posture.
Zhang Xuewu didn't think how comfortable the hard Taishi chair was, but looking at Chiang Kai-shek's relaxed face, he even had the idea of wanting to sit down?
Stand upright and salute! Zhang Xuewu's smooth movements made Chiang Kai-shek particularly satisfied, and in Chiang Kai-shek's eyes, Zhang Xuewu was a person who knew how to be polite and sensible, and from the beginning of entering the villa, Zhang Xuewu maintained a rigorous military style, which Chiang Kai-shek appreciated the most.
Chiang Kai-shek picked up a file on his desk and put it down casually, and said very casually: "Chengwen, you are a junior, Han Qing and I are friends of the year, you are considered your own family, so don't be so polite!" ”
Zhang Xuewu sat on the sofa with his waist straight, Zhang Xuewu has been hesitating what to call Chiang Kai-shek? It is definitely not okay to call Chairman Chiang, because Chiang Kai-shek has already gone into the wilderness, which is undoubtedly equivalent to revealing a scar, and calling him chairman seems a bit ahead of his time? In desperation, he stood up and said: "Today, the younger generation has the opportunity to enter the Army University for further study, and as the president's protégé, the younger generation will abide by the spirit of my Whampoa, follow the teachings of the president, and be loyal to the leader wholeheartedly and be loyal to the country." ”
It can be said that Zhang Xuewu's left principal and right principal just scratched Chiang Kai-shek's itch! Moreover, Zhang Xuewu came up and regarded himself as a student, which made Chiang Kai-shek very happy.
Mary whispered in Georg Furzell to introduce Zhang Xuewu's origin to George Furzeil! As a translator and secretary, especially for Marie, a graduate of the Berlin State Higher Education School, she is undoubtedly extremely competent.
(The second is to recommend votes and collections!) Although it only rose a few dozen collections yesterday, Xiaoqi still decided to add one more to return to everyone, and there is one more at 17 o'clock, please look forward to it! )
