It's up to this point. Force can no longer solve the problem, Yang Hu has someone in the center, he Chen Zikun does not have it, and the relationship is more than a little harder than Yang Hu.

Chen Zikun immediately flew to Nanjing to meet Chairman Chiang in person, and the atmosphere of this meeting was very different from the previous one; in the past, they were all talking with each other in the villa of Xiaohongshan, but this time it was in the large office of the General Headquarters of the Army, Navy, and Air Force, and Chairman Chiang was dressed in military uniform, and behind him was a huge portrait of Sun Yat-sen and the party flag and state flag, and the atmosphere was quite solemn.

Before meeting Chiang Kai-shek, Chen Zikun had already met with Song Ziwen, Yang Hu sued himself for his black state, Chen Lifu said bad things about himself behind his back, and who the real owner of the batch of opium was, he was clear, like a mirror in his heart, and had already thought of countermeasures.

Before talking, Chen Zikun first presented two things, one was the packing list of eight tons of opium, 500 catties of heroin, and 2,000 catties of red pills, and the other was the organizational chart and roster of the Three Guns Society.

"Chairman Jiang, Yang Hu sold drugs privately, was seized by me, burned a batch in public, and the rest were all sent to Nanjing and handed over to the central government, and also, this is the roster of the Jiangdong Fellow Association, you also know that people from all provinces have to join forces in Shanghai, Yanfu people are mixed with Gu Zhuxuan, Anhui people are mixed with Wang Yaqiao, our Jiangdong villagers are afraid of being bullied, so they set up a gang, called the Three Guns Club, with only one purpose, to support Chairman Jiang! I heard that someone said bad things about me, I feel very wronged, could it be that our three guns will be against Wang Yaqiao, and it is wrong! ”

Chen Zikun's words made Chiang Kai-shek turn 180 degrees, and his mood also improved, turned out from behind the desk, and patted Chen Zikun on the shoulder: "Zikun, who dares to say that yours is not, I will be the first to disagree with him." ”

"Chairman Chiang, I plan to resign from the post of chairman of the National Defense Construction Supervision Commission and return to my hometown to work as a farmer, so that no one will gossip." Chen Zikun continued to say with a bitter face.

Chiang Kai-shek laughed: "What did Zikun say, I was about to entrust you with a heavy responsibility, how can you retreat at this juncture." ”

Chen Zikun said curiously: "Chairman Jiang, what do you mean? ”

"You are still young, and you are a top student of the West Point Military Academy, and you are engaged in construction, I am ready to appoint you as the commander of the former enemy in Jiangxi to suppress bandits, and shoulder the heavy task of exterminating the communists and bandits, you don't shirk, go back and prepare, and go to Nanchang next month to take up your post."

Chiang Kai-shek's move caught Chen Zikun a little off guard, he originally just wanted to be an idle prince, but he didn't expect that Lao Chiang trusted him, and actually entrusted him with a heavy task to be the commander of a former enemy, but he really had no enthusiasm for fighting, but the other party had blocked the road, so he had to make a false accusation, and retreat first and then find a way.

Walking in the courtyard, suddenly a young officer came across from him, very tall, almost the same as Chen Zikun, dressed in a yellow-green uniform with straight ironing, armed belts and leather shoes shiny, and his waist was as straight as a javelin.

When Chen Zikun returned the salute, he glanced at the other party's badge, the rank of infantry colonel, and his name was Sun Liren.

……

Chen Zikun once presided over the overall situation of the Ministry of Military Affairs for a period of time, he was humble and kind, and those civilians in the ministry who sat in the office had friendships with him, and some people secretly came to break the news that in the recent battle plan of the Ministry of Military Affairs, there was the number of the anti-smoking law enforcement corps.

This is a very bad signal, this elite team that has spent countless efforts and funds, and has worked hard to operate, will still be transferred to the front line of the civil war as cannon fodder, Chen Zikun is extremely unhappy, but there is nothing to be done. A soldier's duty is to obey orders, and when the order of the Ministry of Military Affairs comes down, can it not be disobeyed?

Suddenly, a thought flashed, something is wrong, why did the Ministry of Military Affairs mobilize the anti-smoking law enforcement corps, this is not a regular army, but a paramilitary force, and it should not be under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Military Affairs.

Chen Zikun's first thought was to transfer this unit back to Jiangdong, but if he had been operating in Shanghai for many years, if he suddenly adjusted his defense, what would happen to the brothers who took root in Shanghai after being discharged from the army, they had no support, and they were not pinched to death by Yang Hu.

After thinking about it, I thought of Song Ziwen, if the anti-smoking law enforcement corps was attached to the Ministry of Finance as a tax policeman, the Ministry of Military Affairs would have no tricks at all, and Chiang Kai-shek would be embarrassed to dig into the corner of his uncle.

Just do it, Chen Zikun immediately found Song Ziwen to discuss the matter, of course, first talked about Tang Ying's funeral and Tang Ying's attitude, the two sighed, Song Ziwen said: "My fate with Tang Ying is over, this is God's will, the husband can't indulge in love affairs, from now on, I don't think about her anymore." ”

Chen Zikun praised him as a true hero in a timely manner, and he was relieved by the pure masters who could afford to let go.

"Okay, Zikun, let's be serious, what is Chairman Jiang's attitude towards you?" Song Ziwen has been an official for many years, how can he not see the true purpose of Chen Zikun's trip.

Chen Zikun told Chiang Kai-shek's plan again, and said: "If you just send me to the front line, it's nothing, what I'm afraid of is that the Ministry of Military Affairs will take this opportunity to wipe out my family, then I will really become a loner, and I will not have the ability to fight back when I am bullied by Yang Hu. ”

Song Ziwen's eyes lit up: "I understand what you mean, recently I have an idea to build a regularized tax police corps, but there are no basic troops and professionals, you help me build a team, I will give you a number, to ensure that your anti-smoking corps is still stationed in the same place, and all officers are not adjusted, what do you think." ”

Song Ziwen meant that if he wanted to do it, he would make it bigger, and first set up a shelf of five regiments, officers were selected from among the cadets, international students and college students were preferred, and the soldiers also required at least a high and small education, the weapons and equipment should be in the German style, and the military training method should be in the American style.

"The Ministry of Finance holds the remaining amount of the salt tax that is amortized every year to repay the loans of the eight bank groups, and this fund is enough to maintain the expenses of three divisions, and I am ready to build the strongest army in China, the army unit under the command of the Ministry of Finance!" Song Ziwen was full of confidence, and his eyes flashed with an almost fanatical light.

"Rifles and light machine guns are made in the Czech Republic, heavy machine guns must be made of Makqin water-cooled, tanks must be available, buy a few Vickers to practice first......" What surprised Chen Zikun was that Song Ziwen, who was born as a financial official, talked about weapons and equipment in all aspects, such as a number of treasures, and it seemed that he had worked hard.

"Brother Ziwen, if you can trust me, I'll recommend a few people for you." Chan said.

"That's great, but let's say it first, I don't want to be from the Whampoa Military Academy." Song Ziwen said.

The two tacitly laughed.

……

In the office of the Party Affairs Investigation Section of the Organization Department of the Central Committee, Xu Enzeng stood in front of a man in a light-colored tunic, thirty years old, of medium stature, with an ordinary appearance, without any brilliance, and he couldn't find it if he threw it into the pile. But the more ordinary people are, the more suitable they are to be agents.

Xu Enzeng looked at his resume and raised his eyebrows: "You graduated from Peking University?" ”

"Yes." The man replied in a proper manner.

"Peking University is a hotbed of radicals, depending on your age, you should have been on the streets during the May Fourth period, right?" Xu Enzeng glanced at him and became interested in this interviewee.

The Party Affairs Investigation Section is very short of manpower, of course, there is no shortage of manpower at the level of ruffians and hooligans who are good at stalking and searching for fights and brawls, and what is in short demand are high-quality personnel who have both theoretical knowledge and are loyal to the party-state.

"During the May Fourth period, I was recuperating at home and did not participate." That's humane.

"Then what is your attitude towards the May Fourth Movement?" Xu Eun had no intention of letting him go.

The man smiled faintly: "Who hasn't been young." ”

Xu Enzeng nodded, continued to look at his resume, and suddenly gasped: "You are Xu Shuzheng's nephew?" ”

"Yes, uncle Xu Shuzheng, died at the hands of Feng Yuxiang." The man was neither humble nor arrogant.

Xu En was very satisfied, this person's basic conditions were very suitable for this job, and he would be an excellent agent after training.

He stood up and stretched out his right hand to the interviewer: "Welcome to the Party Affairs Investigation Section, Comrade Xu Tingge." ”

……

Su Qingyan was still detained in the Nanjing Army Prison, and Chen Zikun personally went to visit the prison and saw that he had not been tortured to extract a confession, so he was relieved, and it seemed that the people in the Party Affairs Investigation Department were quite civilized.

The case involving *** is the most troublesome, it can't be screened without a few months, Su Qingyan has to live in prison for a while, Chen Zikun's mood is also very bad, he originally planned to play the protagonist in "Merry Overseer" in person, because this matter is also in vain, but the movie still has to be made, but the male protagonist is replaced by Yan Qingyu, who is in the limelight, and the heroine borrowed the famous Hu Die.

Yan Qingyu and Hu Die flew to Beiping to shoot exterior scenes, Chen Zikun still stayed in Nanjing to handle military affairs, and while the Minister of Military Affairs He Yingqin was far away in Nanchang, he and Song Ziwen quietly assigned the establishment of the anti-smoking law enforcement corps to the Ministry of Finance, and transferred 100 graduates from the Jiangdong Army Military Academy to serve as grassroots officers.

The head of the tax police corps was naturally appointed by Song Ziwen, this person's name is Wen Yingxing, it is said that he is a West Point graduate who is older than Chen Zikun and Wang Geng, Minister Song himself is a Harvard graduate, and it is natural for him to have a preference for graduates of the US military academy, Chen Zikun can't help but think of the young colonel he saw at the headquarters.

He retrieved Sun Liren's file and looked at it, and couldn't help but be surprised, this person was about the same age as himself, and was admitted to Tsinghua University's preparatory department for studying in the United States with the first place in Anhui Province, and then studied civil engineering in the United States, and entered the Virginia Military Academy in the United States to study military affairs in the fifteenth year of the Republic of China.

The U.S. Army has two powers, the North is the West Point Military Academy, and the South is the Virginia Military Academy.

But when he called Sun Liren and proposed to transfer him to the tax police corps in person, he was refused.
