Chapter 36 Remembered
On the way back to the adviser's residence, George Futzel closed his glasses and said nothing, the fascism prevailing in China has obviously not reached the point of being alarmist as Zhang Xuewu said, but it also made George Futzel have a trace of vigilance, but soon this distant and boundless vigilance was thrown out of the sky by Georg Futzel, after all, he is a soldier and not a politician.
When he got out of the car, Georg Verzell frowned slightly and said, "Miss Mary, I hope to see a detailed information about Zhang Xuewu, a young officer, on my desk tomorrow, and I even want to know what brand of wine he likes to drink, where he learned German, his true attitude towards Germany, and so on." β
Mary was a little embarrassed: "You know, Zhang Xuewu is not a person in the Central Military system, and it is difficult for our intelligence network to be effectively deployed in the East, which may take some time. β
Georg Verzell smiled and said, "Actually, there is no need to overcomplicate simple questions, you are a young and beautiful single lady, and he is a single gentleman, a chance encounter is nothing, is it?" β
Mary's face flushed slightly and said, "I understand, sir, but I also have to remind you that Orientals often marry very early. β
Mary's words made George Verzell stunned slightly, and then looked at the figure of Mary leaving, and George Verzell smiled helplessly.
And Zhang Xuewu in the north study is suffering at the moment, the reason is very simple, that is, two bold embezzlement of money to buy military supplies to lend guys, originally this matter should have been reported to the Military Judge Advocate General's Office of the Ministry of Military Affairs, but the two people involved in the case have a lot of backgrounds, one of them is Chiang Kai-shek's protΓ©gΓ© Huang Zhongyi of the Whampoa III Cavalry Section, and the other is Lieutenant Colonel Li Guofan, who graduated from the Baoding Infantry School and entered the Logistics Deployment Department of the Ministry of Military Affairs, and the two hooked up with a series of embezzlements amounting to more than 200,000 oceans.
As a result, Minister of Military Affairs He Yingqin took it upon himself to send the case file to Chiang Kai-shek, first, to ask for instructions, and second, to show respect.
Zhang Xuewu never thought that he would be able to bump into the famous "Huang Li Case"! Zhang Xuewu has only heard of this case, but he does not know the outcome of the case, but according to Zhang Xuewu's analysis, that Li Guofan must be dead and has no place to be buried, and Huang Zhongyi is from Huangpu and may be able to leave a glimmer of life.
Soon, the furious Chiang Kai-shek wrote down the instructions, because he was the outgoing chairman of the National Political Axe, so he used the private seal of Zhongzheng, and the front of the envelope was written with the words "Respectful Kiss", and Deputy Director Huang on the side browsed the letter slightly and quickly sealed it.
Chiang Kai-shek came to his senses and found that Zhang Xuewu was still waiting on the side, so he sighed helplessly: "Shuo rat and cool official have now become synonymous with the political axe of the Republic of China, how many of the local county level and the regimental level of the army are appointed by the Central Political Axe and the Ministry of Military Affairs?" Niang Xipi! The central power does not come out of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, what is this called the central government? They scraped their hands up and down below, and in the end, it was the political axe of the Republic of China that was scolded! How can the military and political power not be unified? β
Chiang Kai-shek seemed to be a little tired after venting, so he beckoned to Zhang Xuewu and said, "I heard that Hanqing gave you a brigade, and the troops are stationed in Tianjin?" I don't think you should lead the troops, today Chengwen what you said, I carefully and repeatedly, you are a talent, it is a pity to lead the troops below, and your brigade is a mixed brigade, the National Revolutionary Army has canceled the establishment of mixed brigades since the Republic of China 18 years later, I think it is better to go to the staff after this study! Major General Gao Shen I am waiting for a waiting, okay? β
Chiang Kai-shek's arrangement made Zhang Xuewu break out in a cold sweat, could it be that what his previous words touched which nerve of Chiang Kai-shek? What kind of senior staff do you not bring soldiers to? Recalling his terrifying dream after the destruction of the city in Nanjing, Zhang Xuewu took a deep breath and said boldly: "Principal Mingjian, my mixed brigade is stationed in the strategic point of Jinghai in Tianjin, and the troops are all the elite soldiers of the original Seventh Brigade, and the officers are all promoted after the Shenyang Incident. The director of the Political Department is replenishing a group of Huangpu graduated lieutenants, and this unit will certainly be able to shoulder heavy responsibilities. β
"Oh?" Chiang Kai-shek looked at Zhang Xuewu with incredible eyes in surprise, what Zhang Xuewu said was too unbelievable, Chiang Kai-shek said tentatively: "Chengwen, is this your idea or Han Qing's idea?" β
Zhang Xuewu said a straight way: "My brother has a saying, the army is the country's armament, and it should obey the political axe, and the more than 200,000 troops of the Northeast Army are said to be very consumed, and sooner or later they will have to be unified and reorganized, so it is better to take our department as a precedent." β
Chiang Kai-shek nodded thoughtfully and said: "Since Han Qing agreed, it is best to arrange it like this, don't worry about the number of your department, let me think about it, Chengwen, your loyalty to the party and patriotism are exemplary, I am very optimistic about you!" β
Leaving the villa Zhang Xuewu was a little depressed and tangled, an active colonel and brigade commander went to the home of Chairman Shimono, who did not have any official position, to ask for instructions, and got the corresponding reorganization promise? How incredible is that? Perhaps this is the characteristic of this era?
Looking at the car in and out of Chiang Kai-shek's villa, Zhang Xuewu can imagine how idle Chiang Kai-shek's so-called leisure after going into the wilderness should be?
I am afraid that at this moment, under the stage, Jiang Wang has already secretly contacted each other, and finally put aside Sun Ke, forced Hu Hanmin and Li Zongren away, and promoted a two-way alliance, each taking what he needs, and Chiang Kai-shek was able to take up the post of chairman of the Military Commission after the power was sent to Ye Yue, and get rid of all the unfavorable public opinion pressure before, which can be described as a deep calculation!
Wang Jingwei, who cooperated with Chiang Kai-shek, also became the premier as he wished, and the cooperation between the two would also form a pattern of Chiang Kai-shek's army and Wang's government.
Leaving Chiang Kai-shek's place, Zhang Xuewu returned to the hotel to take out his luggage and went to the Central Army Military Academy in Nanjing, which was founded in 1928 by Chiang Kai-shek in 1927. The considerations and concerns after the first or second incident were built in order to better grasp the cradle of this officer.
As the ancient capital of the Six Dynasties of the legendary Nanjing, Zhang Xuewu did not see the Qinhuai River that makes people forget to return to the wind and moon, nor did he see the bustling traffic of Shanghai, it can be said that the ancient capital of the Six Dynasties Nanjing, the history of the city is a history of war stained with blood and tears, this is a city that has risen again in the ruins, and in some inconspicuous places can even find traces of the Hunan army breaking the city, and the corpses of Jinling are millions.
The small camp is located at the west gate of Nanjing, the gate of the Central Army Military Academy stands next to two towering ancient trees, Zhang Xuewu stands in front of the main gate and looks up, the main gate is a high gate made of cement and concrete bricks, there is a red brick sentry box on both sides of the door, and there are two armed soldiers on duty on both sides.
The main building of the office building facing the gate is a three-storey square building with typical oriental characteristics, and the two-story building extending from both sides is the faculty office.
Zhang Xuewu took a deep breath, took out his report and military ID card in front of the gate and handed it to a sentry.
This is the Nanjing Army Military Academy? The inheritance of the Whampoa Military Academy? Zhang Xuewu still remembers a piece of information he once read in later generations, in January 1937, the statistics of the National Political Axe had more than 127,500 officers (second lieutenant to colonel) who graduated from regular military academies, and the bloody battle with Yue Kou until February 1939, after the statistics of the National Political Axe Military Committee, there were only less than 4,000 survivors! At this moment, the heroic wall soaked in blood has not yet been built!
It can be said that Zhang Xuewu entered here today with a rather depressed and heavy heart and a sense of reverence! Maybe in the near future he will also become a name on the martyr's wall, but he firmly believes that he will have no regrets!
