Chapter 325 Hu Zongnan's Uprising and Chairman Chiang's End
The first target plane, Yanhuang Continent, Pingwu County, Sichuan Province, the general headquarters of Hu Zongnan's corps.
There is no impermeable wall in the world, not to mention that the campaign of the Japanese invasion of India can be publicized by the media of various countries in the world, and even though Chairman Chiang of Chongqing repeatedly asked for a blockade of the news, the bald army and high-level government officials from all walks of life in Sichuan basically learned of the news within a week.
"Throne, you call me." Hu Zongnan's chief of staff, Sheng Wencheng, asked in a low voice in Hu Zongnan's private lounge.
"Wen Cheng, how is the discussion on the Red Party?" Hu Zongnan, dressed in military uniform, stood by the window and looked at the scenery outside the window. At this time, it is a hot summer, and the surrounding green mountains and rivers are full of vitality. However, in the eyes of Hu Zongnan, who was worried, all these beauties lost their color.
"They sent back the message, and it was the same as before. Our personal safety and necessary personal property must be guaranteed, but property in excess of what is reasonable must be handed over, and the army must be integrated and managed in a unified manner. Chief Sheng Wencheng whispered.
"You've toughened your attitude."
"They should have known about the Japanese attack on India, so"
"Humph! It's just a landing attack, 300,000 British Army, plus nearly a million Indian servants, I don't think the little devil has such a good mouth. Who wins and who loses is a matter of two questions. Hu Zongnan, who was not convinced, said loudly.
"Military Seat"
"Huh?"
"Let me show you the bottom, according to our private investigation, it is estimated that more than half of the officers and high-level officers in the party ** team who have secret contact with the Red Party have been made, and many of them are high-ranking and powerful people in the army, and our importance is declining; In addition, the Red Party representatives received news that 'the Sichuan issue needs to be resolved, and there will be half a month at most.' ”
"Half a month? What do they mean? ”
"It is estimated that in half a month, the Red Party is likely to use force to solve the Sichuan problem."
After listening to the words of Chief of Staff Sheng Wencheng, Hu Zongnan fell silent. About three minutes later, Sheng Wencheng continued: "The commission asked Chen Cheng to go to India to command the expeditionary force, and began to transfer his henchmen and property to India and abroad in a planned way, everything shows that the chairman of the committee is ready to withdraw at any time, the military seat, time will not wait for me~~"
"But"
"And you look at Fu Zuoyi and Dong Qiwu who voted in earlier, all of them held important positions in the army, and they were not liquidated and attacked, the military seat, there is really no time."
"Well, let me think again, give me another day."
That night, Hu Zongnan called his confidential secretary Xiong Xianghui (the largest underground party planted by the Red Party next to Hu Zongnan) and asked, "How is the situation?" ”
"Junzuo, I have found out clearly, I am afraid that 4 of the 7 division commanders under your command have reached an agreement with the Red Party. Lately, every time we have a meeting, they excuse their absence for various reasons, I'm afraid"
"The trees are falling apart. Forget it, I know, you go down first. ”
"Yes!"
That night, Hu Zongnan sat in the office all night, looking at the starry sky outside in a daze, perhaps reminiscing about his eventful years.
July 15, 1944.
Hu Zongnan's army, the main force of the bald army, which had been guarding the border between Sichuan and Qinghai, suddenly declared an uprising, and all the soldiers declared that they would unite from the bald party and join the newly established Yanhuang Democratic Republic. This terrifying news, like a magnitude 9 earthquake, shook the entire Sichuan Bald Party Government in an instant, and the military and government courts were dizzy.
Chongqing, Zengjiaya's official residence.
"Damn! Hu Zongnan misunderstood me! Hu Zongnan damn it! Chairman Jiang, who was dressed in a coat, was already flushed at this time, and walked around the room angrily. The ground was full of broken glass slag and broken porcelain, and after hearing the collective uprising of Hu Zongnan's nearly 300,000 troops in the morning, the old man only felt that his eyes were black, and he fainted.
"Take a seat, please take care of yourself." Dai Li pleaded guilty on the side: "The students did not find the signs of Hu Zongnan's defection to the enemy in time, and asked the chairman to punish him." ”
"Okay, Yunong, what's the point of saying this at this point. The party-state is over, this is the time and fortune! Suddenly, Chiang Kai-shek, who was several years old, waved his hand with a lonely face. He looked around, carefully looked at the layout and furnishings in the room, and laughed at himself: "I miss someone Jiang, follow Mr. Zhongshan's revolution, pay for my own life, and fight all my life, but who would have thought that I would end up betraying my relatives and being homeless." ”
"Commission"
"Knock knock!" Dai Li was just about to persuade again, the office door suddenly rang, and before Chiang Kai-shek could speak, Song Ziwen walked in with a solemn face.
"What's wrong?" Seeing Song Ziwen, who held the real power of the bald party's finances, walk in, and his face was unhappy, Chiang Kai-shek felt bad.
"Jiang Gong, we are in trouble, I just received a report that the gold and treasures of the Forbidden City that we hid in the cave are all suddenly gone!"
"What!?"
A hidden natural cave in a high mountain in Sichuan, where the bald party hides the essence of the Forbidden City's national treasure.
As the actual owner and head of the Yanhuang Continent before the Anti-Japanese War, the Bald Party began to prepare for the transfer of cultural relics early in order to protect the national treasures and cultural relics from falling into the hands of the enemy. It's just that because of the large number of cultural relics, they can only transfer the best of the best, the best of the best, the best of the best. Like porcelain alone, the quality of the transferred porcelain is amazing. In the cave here, there are more than 3,700 pieces of ancient porcelain in the original Jingyang Palace porcelain showroom of the Forbidden City, mainly Song and Yuan porcelain, including Song Jun kiln, Guan kiln, Ru kiln, Ge kiln, Longquan kiln, Lishui kiln, Jinping Ding kiln, Suzhou kiln, Yuanjun kiln, Linchuan kiln and other famous kilns. In addition, there are more than 3,400 pieces of Jingqi Palace porcelain, most of which are Ming Dynasty porcelain. It can be said unceremoniously that the two palaces alone add up to more than 7,000 porcelain treasures, which are worth a fortune.
"I didn't expect the bald party to have so many treasures in the Forbidden City." Wang Fan glanced at the bald soldiers on the screen, who were crazy and blind inside and outside the cave, looking for clues to thieves, and then turned his attention to the newly arrived treasures of the Forbidden City.
"I have to say that when the bald people were at their poorest, they didn't make a big deal out of cultural relics to raise military funds." Yadi continued: "The information I have collected shows that there was a proposal to auction off cultural relics for the purchase of 500 aircraft, but it was shelved because of the opposition too much. ”
"In this era of the Republic of China, we Yanhuang people still have some backbone and persistence in our bones." Wang Fan spoke with a little pride. After he finished speaking, he put on his gloves and carefully looked through the genuine porcelain that he had just gotten his hands on, some of them were as thin as paper, some were as big as a jar, and they were very beautiful. Of course, Wang Fan doesn't know much about cultural relics, like some porcelain, he finds it ugly, but since it can be in the list of transshipments, I think there should be some allusions or historical value.
"The protection at the time of shipment is really good." Looking at the cultural relics protected with new wooden boxes and new cotton packaging, Wang Fan nodded and praised.
According to the packing diagram of Yadea's restoration, when these cultural relics are boxed, a layer of straw should be placed on the bottom of the box, then covered with a layer of cotton, then stuffed with cotton near the box board, and finally covered with a layer of thick cotton and a layer of porcelain. After two or three layers are packed, the cotton straw is covered, and the wooden box is covered and nailed firmly, so that the box becomes a whole, and there are no loose gaps in between. This is the key to the national treasure of the Yanhuang Forbidden City after several transfers and thousands of miles, and finally be safe and sound.
"You Yanhuang ancient people are solemn, and once disclosed the four-character mantra of cultural relics packing in the "Shantang Qinghua": 'stability, accuracy, separation, and tightness'. 'Steady' means 'cautious attitude', and 'quasi' means 'right approach'. He believed that when packing, each bundle of porcelain should be tied tightly, and between the bundles, it should be separated by straw husks. Like the porcelain in Jingdezhen in ancient times, under the conditions of inconvenient transportation at that time, the porcelain they imported was shipped in wooden barrels. For example, they treated the ten bowls as a whole, tied the bowls tightly with straw, placed them in buckets, and separated them with chaff between each bunch, and then used chaff to separate them, tighten, and not loosen them, so that although the porcelain that was finally transported to Beijing traveled thousands of miles, none of them were broken. Yadi saw that Wang Fan was interested, so he casually introduced, "However, don't be dazzled by these things, what do you want to do with the bald party?" After Hu Zongnan's uprising, it became obvious that in a week at most, the whole of Sichuan would change hands. The bald party top brass will definitely evacuate by plane when the time comes, stop it or not? ”
"It's the same Yan Huang people, why is it too anxious to fry each other! Let's stay, when the time comes, wouldn't it be better for them to see a new Yanhuang where the people are living a prosperous life and the country is strong~~" Wang Fan didn't know why, and replied with a sigh.
Chongqing City, Sichuan.
With the news of Hu Zongnan's uprising, all parts of Chongqing entered a sense of turmoil. Most of the middle and lower officials of the bald party were anxious and panicked, and from time to time there were all kinds of news and rumors in the streets: some general so-and-so had also revolted, so-and-so was actually a lurking member of the Red Party, and the Red Party was about to be killed.
Zengjiaya official residence.
At this time, it was already the second day of Hu Zongnan's uprising, and Chairman Jiang and his wife Song Meiling and others were already dressed and waiting for the arrival of the convoy, and they were about to go to the airport and fly away from the Yanhuang Continent by plane.
"Darling, are we never going back?" Song Meiling said with red eyes.
"I don't know, maybe." Chiang Kai-shek, who had lost control of the army outside Chongqing due to the chaos of the army, looked old at this time, much like a bad old man who had been drained of his spirit.
"Father, the convoy is coming, let's go." Jiang Jingguo walked in with a frosty face, in the past two days, he hardly slept much, and has been pacifying and coordinating Chongqing's military and political affairs.
"Well, let's go!"
One hour later, as two dark green Stars and Stripes DC-3 transport planes slowly took off, Chiang Kai-shek's family, together with Song Ziwen and others, left Chongqing, the capital where they had lived for several years, and went to India, where they did not know what the future would be.
However, only twenty minutes later, the pilot reported with a panicked face: "The whole plane is out of control, it changes course on its own and flies towards Qinghai Province, which is ruled by the Red Party!" ”
