Chapter 1197 Test

The mountains are covered in snow, and the greenery of the branches of the ten thousand trees has long been replaced by white ice and snow, and only the ancient cypress and pine trees stand proudly in the snowflakes. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Song Meiling and others, accompanied by Yu Jishi, first went to the cemetery with the Jiang family, Chiang Kai-shek and An Yi walked side by side, climbing the stairs, and the two talked in a low voice while walking, which made Chen Cheng, Qian Dajun and other dozens of civil and military officials who followed closely behind envious.

The pebble-paved steps were swept very cleanly, and the cleared snow was piled up under the roots of the trees on both sides of the steps, and Chiang Kai-shek's cane always landed steadily on the previous step first.

On the wide altar of Chiang's mother's cemetery, more than 20 people gathered, and An Yi looked at it, all of them were deeply trusted and valued by Chiang Kai-shek.

Song Meiling and Zhang Qun got together and talked cordially, Song Ziwen and Kong Xiangxi, who went up the mountain to enjoy the scenery in advance, paced side by side, both of them were wearing precious and delicate wool collar tweed coats, and when they saw Chiang Kai-shek and An Yi coming side by side, everyone immediately stopped talking and greeted them with a smile.

After the mutual salute, Chiang Kai-shek walked to the tombstone with the support of his two nephews, An Yi saw that the sacrificial ceremony was still being prepared in an orderly manner, so he and Song Ziwen and Kong Xiangxi came to the pine on the left side of the altar to talk in a low voice, and the Chiang family and more than ten principals in the center of the altar were neatly arranged.

A few minutes later, the sacrifice officially began, dozens of civil and military officers lined up in turn, Chiang Kai-shek and his wife took the lead in burning incense and praying, extraordinarily pious, followed by Chiang's relatives to worship, and then it was the turn of the foreign ministers Zhang Qun and Song Ziwen, who were bound by the negotiation conditions of the Xi'an Incident, and the military generals An Yi, Chen Cheng, and Qian Dajun were the last, and the not luxurious sacrifice was completed in only half an hour, although it was only a short process, but it was enough to make all the approved participants feel deeply honored.

After the sacrifice, everyone saw that Chiang Kai-shek and his wife did not leave immediately, stayed for a while, and went down the mountain first, and An Yi, who was told to stay, whispered a few words in Shen Fengdao's ear, Shen Fengdao nodded and silently walked to Wang Shihe, the chief of the guard on the other side of the altar, and the two walked along the edge of the altar, walking and communicating in a low voice, seemingly admiring the snow scene, but it was actually a strict vigilance.

Song Meiling gave An Yi a few words, and left accompanied by Yu Jishi and Jiang Xiaozhen. An Yi sent Soong Meiling to the entrance of the stairs to see him respectfully, and finally came to Chiang Kai-shek, who was standing in front of the tomb and was still in infinite remembrance.

After a long time, Chiang Kai-shek exhaled a long breath of hot mist, slowly turned to An Yi, and motioned to walk casually: "Do you remember the scene of the first time you came to worship?" ”

"I remember, five years have passed in the blink of an eye, and the students have remembered the principal's earnest teachings after that sacrifice from time to time, and they are engraved in their hearts." An Yi remembered the scene back then and was quite emotional.

Chiang Kai-shek nodded with satisfaction: "It's rare that you still remember my teachings, not bad!" In the past five years, you have also done a good job, especially in the handling of the crisis caused by the Xi'an incident, you reacted quickly, took extraordinary actions, and resolutely and decisively deterred the delusional people in the central government...... I am very pleased that you are mature, sharp-eyed, take into account the overall situation, know how to use your power and strength, and do a good job! ”

An Yi hurriedly apologized: "I'm sorry, principal, the student went into Beijing in vain, violated military law and should be punished, and the student asked the principal to punish him." ”

Chiang Kai-shek waved his hand: "This matter is over, let it pass, no one's face is good when entangled, everyone tacitly, just turn a blind eye and forget it, there is no need to mention it again, but I have a few questions I want to ask you." ”

"Principal, please tell me that the students know everything."

An Yi's heart sank, knowing that the test was coming.

Chiang Kai-shek stopped and stared quietly into An Yi's eyes: "What would you do if I were assassinated in Xi'an this time...... Don't frown, be honest! ”

An Yi gritted his teeth and replied in a low voice: "If that's the case, there will definitely be a civil war breaking out all over the place, and all the princes will definitely fight each other for their own interests and ambitions." The first to suffer will be the people of Shaanxi, the rebellious Northeast Army and Yang Hucheng's Northwest Army, will be under the angry crusade of our Huangpu comrades, the blood will flow like a river, our Central Army will also end up with a great loss of vitality and inability to fight again, at that time, the Japanese will invade on a large scale, North China will fall, Shanxi will be shaken, Shanghai will be occupied, and the country will not be a country!

"If that's the case, the overall collapse is not something that the students can stop. The students did not have any undesirable thoughts, but they would never be at the mercy of others, and they would definitely order the 80,000 soldiers of the 17th Army to quickly withdraw from North China, go south to Wuhan, echo with the 49th Army of Xiangxi in the north and south, seize the two lakes, unite the Yunnan Army and the Guizhou Army to form an alliance to defend themselves, stabilize the southwest, and then divide the Sichuan Army, eliminate dissidents, and first establish themselves in an invincible position.

"As for resisting the Japanese invasion, whoever has the ability to let whoever go, when they are all gone, the students will go up and work hard, what the future holds, no one can see, but as long as the students are still alive, they will never be traitors, whoever is a traitor student will clean up whoever they can't beat, until they are separated from life and death, and the students don't care about any reputation."

Chiang Kai-shek looked at An Yi in shock, and only sighed for a while: "Very good...... You didn't disappoint me, you didn't lie to me, it's good! The crisis response plan is very decent, and it is ruthless enough, and it deserves to be a good student for me. ”

"Principal Xie trusts cultivation! Students don't dare to lie in front of the principal, and there's no need. Taking this crisis as an example, it is not that the students do not know how heavy the responsibility is for the unauthorized mobilization of the army, but if the conspiracy of those pro-Japanese factions with ill intentions is allowed to succeed, the results that the principal has worked hard for more than ten years will be in vain, and the million-dollar army of my colleagues in Whampoa will be devastated. For the sake of the country and the nation, for the sake of the principal, and for the sake of the interests of the students themselves, the students can't care so much. An Yi said what was in his heart sincerely.

Chiang Kai-shek nodded frequently: "Facts have proved that you are right, and you are generous enough, and you understand very well that I did not punish the sufferings of certain people, and did not openly express dissatisfaction as I feared, and contributed to stabilizing the central power and uniting the majority." You are becoming more and more proficient, and you have the demeanor of everyone, which makes me and your wife very happy and proud of you. In the past few days, the small basket of hairy lychees in my mind from time to time, as well as the young colonel of the Northeast Army who sent this gift and secret letter, I don't know how you did it? ”

An Yi said with a smile: "That person's name is Li Hansong, the colonel and deputy chief of the Confidential Section of the Northeast Army Headquarters, he was already a member of our fourth hall during the Great Wall Anti-Japanese War, and he has been hiding by Zhang Hanqing's side, so the students have a better understanding of the major movements of the Northeast Army, and the news that Zhang Hanqing and Yang Hucheng plotted to mutiny was also secretly reported by him in advance, but it is a pity that ...... The principal believed in Zhang Hanqing too much. ”

Chiang Kai-shek sighed bitterly: "Yes! Oh, yes! No wonder you repeatedly stopped me from going to Xi'an...... That's right, I believe in Han Qing too much, he has betrayed my trust and failed me! But that's okay, through this suffering, I have seen the ugly faces of many people clearly, which is probably also an important gain, which is in line with the wise saying that Saion loses his horse and knows whether he is blessed or not! ”

"Principal, please be relieved, most of them follow the principal loyally, but it is a pity that those who detained the principal and Brother Ci of the Northeast Army savagely took away the top-secret plan that Brother Ci carried with him, and read it indiscriminately despite Brother Ci's warnings, although Zhang Hanqing collected it in time and strictly forbade leaking secrets, but it was still learned by the spies of the Japanese army at the top of the Northeast Army, from the rapid large-scale troop mobilization of the Kwantung Army in the past week, the students can clearly judge the purpose of our decisive battle with the Japanese army outside the Guan, I'm afraid it won't happen. ”

When An Yi said this, he was heartbroken, and he couldn't forgive Zhang Xueliang in his heart. For the sake of this confidential battle plan formulated by Chen Cheng and the advisory group, An Yi worked hard to guard North China, secretly recruited more than 30,000 soldiers, and took out heavy funds to equip the system with weapons and equipment, which were personally supervised and trained by the generals Lu Yixuan and Yang Jiuxiao under his command every day. But now, everything is ruined!

Chiang Kai-shek was also very sad in his heart, nodded and continued to move forward: "Let him pass in the past, don't linger, things are man-made, there will be opportunities." The second thing I want to ask you is, what do you think? What is the future for them? ”

At this time, An Yi hesitated, lowered his head and walked silently for a long time without making a sound, Chiang Kai-shek thought that An Yi was thinking, and did not bother him, the two of them just said nothing, and slowly paced around the edge of the altar.

After walking dozens of steps, An Yi stopped: "Principal, the students know that the principal verbally agreed to the eight-point conditions, and also know that the principal has to keep his promise, in the past few days, our Central Army has withdrawn the encirclement of the northern Shaanxi region, and the students understand that this is an order that the principal has to give as a last resort."

"Judging from the current situation, the **armed forces are only more than 30,000 people, and they are divided into several parts, and there are also sharp contradictions within the party, and the secret report sent back by the Party Investigation Bureau from the Xi'an station, saying that ** and Zhang Guotao have been openly deadlocked, is a good proof, so the students judge that at least within a year, the **army will not achieve great development. However, if the internal hidden dangers are quickly eliminated, and its strong belief is used to mobilize all propaganda forces to call on the whole people to unanimously resist Japan, the situation will be very different.

"To be honest, in many ways, the Kuomintang is not as smart and practical as the first, and it lacks firm conviction and enterprising spirit. Look at the current Central Party Department, people are overwhelmed, factions are numerous, corruption ** selfishness, and even life is debauched and indulged in wind and snow, where is the spiritual outlook of the former prime minister and the Northern Expedition? It's hard to go on for a long time! ”

Chiang Kai-shek heard that An Yi had the intention of avoiding the important and trivial, but An Yi said the current crisis of the Kuomintang very well, and it was also a problem that Chiang Kai-shek was extremely worried about and eager to solve, especially An Yi's last sentence "one eliminates the other", which just hit the key that Chiang Kai-shek was most worried about and most painful and unwilling to see, therefore, Chiang Kai-shek did not care about An Yi's "vague understanding" and "confused position" in the first aspect, but deeply agreed with An Yi's criticism of the current situation of the Kuomintang.

"Yes! Oh, yes! It seems that it is imperative to sort out the party affairs and clean up the interior......"

Chiang Kai-shek looked at the white mountains and sighed.

An Yi was awe-inspiring in his heart, knowing that a huge political storm was coming, and he didn't know how many people would withstand the test in this storm, and how many people would be ruthlessly purged.
