Although Jia Jingde was a little puzzled by Song Zhewu's fuss question, since Song Zhewu asked, he still replied: "Chairman Jiang ordered non-resistance last night, and I listened to Zhang Xueliang's confidential director, Hong Yu, when I was discussing with Ge Guangting about the surrender of weapons and ammunition and the restoration of Northeastern University in Taiyuan. ”

"You mean...... Did Zhang Xueliang's confidential director, Hong Fang, say it personally? Song Zhewu asked thoughtfully.

"Yes, Hong Fu personally said to me, 'After the incident last night, Zhang Xueliang asked Chairman Jiang for instructions on how to deal with it, and Chairman Zhang Xueliang secretly telegraphed Zhang Xueliang to instruct him not to resist the Japanese provocation. Everything was resolved by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to the League of Nations. Hong Fang also said, "At this moment, the telegram is on Zhang Xueliang's body, but Zhang Xueliang cares about the prestige of the leader, and he will not take it out." ’”

Jia Jingde's words couldn't help but surprise Song Zhewu, up to now, all the information he had had proved that the "Nine. In the course of the "18 Incident", the order of non-resistance carried out by the Northeast Army was definitely issued by Zhang Xueliang himself, and had nothing to do with Chiang Kai-shek. Why did the cipher come out again?

In his previous life, Chiang Kai-shek had lost the black cauldron of the Northeast for more than 80 years, is it still necessary for Chiang Kai-shek to carry this "black cauldron" of non-resistance, and it is just because of rumors?

Thinking of this, Song Zhewu couldn't help but smile bitterly.

Song Zhewu said to himself: "It's really 'accumulating feathers and sinking boats, the group of light folding shafts, all mouths are gold, and accumulating and destroying pin bones. 'Ahh

"Accumulating feathers and sinking boats, the group of light folding shafts. The crowd is full of gold, and the bones are destroyed. This sentence, Jia Jingde, a Jinshi in the late Qing Dynasty, naturally knows, this sentence is from "Historical Records? Volume Seventy? Zhang Yi's biography? Tenth", which means that the metaphor of public opinion plays a great role, and the word "public opinion" accumulates non-success; Rumors are terrifying, can reverse right and wrong, and put people to death.

Song Zhewu suddenly came up with such a sentence, which made Jia Jingde also taken aback, and couldn't help asking: "What, Wenge, is Hong Fang lying?" ”

Song Zhewu said with a wry smile: "I received a telegram from Lin Wei last night, in which Lin Wei mainly conveyed to me the chairman's instructions on the war in Northern Mongolia, saying that the situation in the northeast is very tense, and he wants me to report my determination to fight the Soviet army to the death, and we must work hard to stabilize the war situation in Northern Mongolia, and the Fourth Route Army must not withdraw from Northern Mongolia, otherwise public opinion will make more accusations against the government, which will not only damage the prestige of the chairman of the committee, but also make Guangzhou more rampant." Lin Wei also said that the chairman of the NPC National Committee would take the Yongsui ship to Nanchang early this morning to supervise the suppression of the communists and make plans to solve the Guangzhou issue nearby. Since the chairman of the committee was afraid that the loss of Northern Mongolia would damage his prestige, which would not be conducive to his handling of the Guangzhou issue, how could he order Zhang Xueliang not to resist the Japanese invasion in the northeast? This is one of them. ”

"Second, Zhang Xueliang just showed me a telegram sent to him by the chairman of the committee."

"I remember the content of the telegram very clearly: Deputy Commander Zhang of Beiping: Good Secret. Arrived in Nanchang. After receiving the telegram from Shanghai, the Japanese soldiers attacked Shenyang last night. According to information from Tokyo, the Japanese and Israeli armies have plans to demolish the railway, and this excuse is the excuse. I am looking forward to the moment of telegram. This telegram not only corroborated Lin Wei's news, but also proved that the chairman of the committee did not know the news of the incident in the northeast last night. It was only on a warship on the Yangtze River today that he got the news about the September 18 incident from Shanghai. Therefore, Hong Fang's words are definitely a lie. ”

In fact, in the memory of Song Zhewu's previous life, there is also a diary about Chiang Kai-shek that day as evidence.

According to Chiang Kai-shek's diary, which was disclosed in his previous life, Chiang Kai-shek wrote in his diary on September 19: "At a time when the rebellion and internal division of Guangdong were rebellious, the Japanese invaded our eastern (three) provinces!" Alack! What a pain! Yu Wei did his best, and after he died, he worked hard to report to my prime minister! Repay me martyrs! Repay my nation!". …,

Song Zhewu believed that Chiang Kai-shek's diary was absolutely credible, and what was contained in the diary was Chiang Kai-shek's true feelings at that time. It is absolutely impossible for Chiang Kai-shek to start falsifying in his diary more than 80 years ago for the sake of his posthumous death a hundred years later. You must know that Chiang Kai-shek died only in 75 years, and if Chiang Kai-shek really started to falsify his diary in 31 years, wouldn't it be to make a fake Chiang Kai-shek's diary for more than 40 years, but he never stopped a day.

In addition, there is also Chen Bui, who is known as the first pen of the Kuomintang, as evidenced by the diary of the "leader Wen Courage" and "president think tank" on the 20th of the same month.

Chen Bui wrote in his diary: "Chairman Chiang endured humiliation and burdened the burden, and on the one hand, he decided to appeal to international justice in accordance with the League of Nations Pact, the Non-War Pact, and the Nine-Power Pact, and on the other hand, he strictly ordered the authorities in the northeast to resist step by step. However, the Northeast Army was arrogant and could not follow orders. The sorrow of the chairman of the committee is the sorrow of the Republic of China. ”

Although Chen Bui was still the deputy minister of the Kuomintang Education Department in Nanjing at this time, he was deeply respected by Chiang Kai-shek, and Chiang Kai-shek even personally became Chen Bui's witness to joining the party.

When he was still in the Northern Expedition, Chen Bui's talent was deeply appreciated by Chiang Kai-shek, and Chen Bui once waved the "Letter to Whampoa Classmates" on Chiang Kai-shek's desk in front of Chiang Kai-shek, which made Chiang Kai-shek admire it, and mentioned it many times many years later. This man is upright, impartial, and his account will never be falsified.

What's more, Song Zhewu also knew that many years after Chiang Kai-shek's death, Zhang Xueliang was released from house arrest and when he went to live in the United States, he personally confirmed several times that the order of non-resistance on September 18 was personally issued by him and had absolutely nothing to do with Chiang Kai-shek.

However, Song Zhewu couldn't and didn't dare to tell Jia Jingde about these things in his previous life.

Song Zhewu's words shocked Jia Jingde for a moment before asking, "What?" Such a big thing happened last night, Zhang Xueliang didn't report it to the chairman immediately? Didn't government officials in the Pingjin area report it either? ”

Such a big incident happened in the Northeast, and Zhang Xueliang, as the governor of the Northeast, not only did not report it to any department of the Nanjing government, but also did not report it to Chiang Kai-shek. Moreover, these government officials in Beiping and Tianjin did not even report to Nanjing, which made Jia Jingde feel very incredible.

Song Zhewu said in a slightly mocking tone: "Zhang Xueliang did not deny to me that he did not report to the chairman last night. The facts of the 18th incident also prove that what Hong Fang said is a lie. As for why Zhang Xueliang and the officials in the Pingjin area did not report to the Nanjing government and Chairman Chiang, the reason for this is very simple. Although the government officials in the Pingjin area were all appointed by the Nationalist Government, these candidates were all from the Northeast Military System, and they were all recommended by Zhang Xueliang; in the hearts of these people, they only knew that there was Zhang Xueliang, the king of the Northeast, and where there would be the Nationalist Government and Chairman Chiang, naturally no one would take the initiative to think of reporting to the Nationalist Government and Chairman of the National Committee. ”

As for why Zhang Xueliang didn't report it, to put it bluntly, he Zhang Xueliang has always thought in his heart that the Northeast is completely the Northeast of his Zhang Xueliang, and he does not think that the Northeast is the Northeast of the Republic of China. He still has illusions, thinking that this time he can still be like his Lao Tzu, and finally give the Japanese a little sweetness, and he can continue to be his king of the Northeast. ”

"If it is reported to the central government, if the central government orders no resistance, it is fine to be in line with his ideas, if he wants to resist, you say he will fight or not. I dare to guarantee that if the Japanese put forward some conditions, no matter how harsh they are, to lose power and humiliate the country, as long as they can return Northeast China, even if the Nationalist Government does not agree, he, Zhang Xueliang, will insist on going his own way and resolutely agree, and the authority of the Nationalist Government will not bind him at all. ”

"According to the chairman's telegram, it should be that the well-informed Shanghai news media first learned the news of the September 18 incident from the Pingjin media, and then the Shanghai officials learned about the situation from the news media, and then reported it to the chairman." …,

Song Zhewu sighed and said: "This matter is ridiculous, the dignified leader of the Republic of China, when there was an invasion by foreign enemies, he didn't know the situation through the first report of his generals, but through the news media, and he didn't know about it almost a day late."

Song Zhewu paused for a moment and said with emotion: "It's easy to change your flag, but it's easy to be difficult."

Jia Jingde thought for a moment, patted the coffee table and said: "I understand, as Wen Ge said, the order of the Northeast Army not to resist last night was given by Zhang Xueliang himself. The reason why Hong Fang said this should be that the staff under Zhang Xueliang knew that this matter was important and would make Zhang Xueliang be accused and scolded by the countrymen, so they fabricated this lie to blame the chairman. ”

"It's just that these people make up a good lie, it's really well-intentioned."

For Jia Jingde to quickly figure out the key, Song Zhewu admired Jia Jingde's quick wit. You know, it wasn't until more than 80 years later that historians gradually began to unravel the veil of this unsolved case.

However, Song Zhewu was also very strange at this time, could it be that just with these lies of Zhang Xueliang's staff, Chiang Kai-shek could be burdened with a black cauldron for nearly a hundred years?

Regarding Song Zhewu's question, Jia Jingde explained with a smile: "Don't say whether anyone will dare to tell Chairman Jiang for a while and a half, even if Chairman Jiang knows about this rumor that damages his image, he will not take the initiative to clarify." Not only is the chairman arrogant and disdainful of this, but he is also a veteran in this area, and he knows that doing so will only get darker and darker. Moreover, when Zhang Xueliang knows what happened, I am afraid that he will also be willing to pretend to be confused, as long as Zhang Xueliang does not come forward to clarify the matter, everyone will follow, and the rumors will become more and more true. ”

"Wen Ge must have watched "Dream of Red Mansions", right? Quite a few words"

Seeing Song Zhewu nodding, Jia Jingde said: "There is one thing in there that I will remember for Lenovo Biwenge, that is, a couplet that Jia Baoyu saw when he was sleepwalking in the fantasy realm in the fifth time, 'When the fake is true, the truth is also false, and there is nowhere to do nothing.'" In my opinion, the chairman of the committee will probably have to carry this black cauldron for the rest of his life. ”

Jia Jingde's analysis made Song Zhewu nod frequently. According to the memory of his previous life, Zhang Xueliang really did not take the initiative to clarify this matter for a long time after that, at least he had not seen relevant reports. It wasn't until Zhang Xueliang was nearly 100 years old that the truth was officially revealed.

There is a saying in the Analects that when a person is about to die, his words are also good. Song Zhewu believes that Zhang Xueliang's statements in his later years are true.

However, Song Zhewu, who has been a man in two lifetimes, does not think that Zhang Xueliang's quality is problematic, it should be said that Zhang Xueliang is still a good person who is above board, but at this time, Zhang Xueliang is still very young. Even Song Zhewu believes that Zhang Xueliang's psychological age is far lower than his biological age, and it is normal for Zhang Xueliang, a young man, not to have the courage to stand up and take responsibility in the face of domestic public opinion. If Zhang Xueliang really stands up, I am afraid that not only will his political career come to an end, but it will be difficult for him to be the commander of the Northeast Army in the future.

Song Zhewu believes that Chiang Kai-shek probably also saw this, and he didn't worry too much about this matter with Zhang Xueliang......
