470 The biggest crisis of the Kuomintang is to ask for subscriptions and votes

The night is deep and the spring breeze is floating.

In the building of the Military Commission of the National Government, Luo Yaoguo's office door rang, and it was Deng Yanda who was wearing a general's uniform who came out. Luo Yaoguo took a step and just shook his hand.

Deng Yanda said with a smile: "Brother Fuwen, stay and stay." I've been delaying you too much today. It was getting dark, and we talked all afternoon. What I'm talking about, if you think about it again, I think G is quite sincere. And if we don't agree, we will be politically passive. ”

Luo Yaoguo just smiled: "Brother Choice, this matter has to be considered in the long run, and it can't be too hasty." After all, it involves the future and destiny of our big stall people. Zhong G will trouble Brother Zhisheng to explain, after all, we have a big family, it's not just the five of us who nod our heads, we have to think about it all over the top. But...... There's no rush to do this, don't be tired, I see that you have lost a lot of money during this time, so you still have to take care of your body. ”

Deng Yanda still maintained an impeccable smile. Today, he and Luo Yaoguo fooled me, I fooled you, and after talking about it in the afternoon, it seemed that everything had eyebrows, but he didn't nod at the end. I really don't understand what kind of medicine is sold in Luo Yaoguo's gourd?

didn't say much at the moment, just gave a routine military salute to Luo Yaoguo, and then hurriedly went downstairs. Although it was already dark, General Deng still couldn't go home to sleep with his wife in his arms, and the most important thing at the moment was to go to Liao Zhongkai and ask Wang Jingwei how his tone was?

When Deng Yanda went downstairs, Luo Yaoguo looked at the back that looked upright, frowned, and his smiling face suddenly became gloomy. With a slight snort, he walked towards Chiang Kai-shek's office. Chairman Jiang also designated to stay in the office at this time and did not go home, and now it is an extraordinary period, and the affairs of his wife and children can only be put aside for the first time.

As soon as I walked to the door of the chairman's office, I saw Chen Lifu already standing there waiting. The director of the "National General Mobilization Committee" did not go to his own place for two days to sit on duty, and spent the whole day in Chiang Kai-shek's office...... What must be plotting? I don't know if he is inciting Lao Jiang to usurp the party and seize power?

Luo Yaoguo said hello to Chen Lifu and followed him into Chiang Kai-shek's office. In the office, Yang Yongtai, Zhu Peide, He Yingqin, Kong Xiangxi, Shanghai Mayor Zhang Jingjiang and Jiangsu Provincial Chairman Chen Guofu were also sitting inside. The people in the room were all pale-faced, and their brows were tightly knit.

The first choice to greet Luo Yaoguo was the fierce look emanating from Lao Jiang's eagle eyes, and then he spoke Ningbo official dialect, and was slightly angry: "Brother Fuwen, Deng Zesheng is also looking for you to talk about peaceful reunification, right?" At noon today, Liao Zhongkai had already looked for Wang Jingwei. This is a GCD conspiracy, don't you see it? "The starters.

Luo Yaoguo found a chair, sat down, took the tea cup from Jiang Xiaozhen's hand, took a shallow sip, and then smiled slightly: "Jiegong, you also think so, so you can rest assured." What the ministry means is that we should stay away from GCD. ”

"Stay away? What do you mean? Doesn't China want reunification? Will the North-South confrontation continue forever? "The starters. Chiang Kai-shek's anger had subdued slightly, but he still appeared aggressive.

Luo Yaoguo raised his head and met Chiang Kai-shek's eyes, and immediately avoided Chiang Kai-shek's gaze. This old Jiang is too fierce...... It seems that it really won't work without Hu Hanmin and Xu Chongzhi to contain them.

"Jiegong, please be calm and don't be impatient, and let me finish my words." Luo Yaoguo shook his head slightly, lowered his posture again, and simply called "lowly duty": "At present, we are almost evenly matched with the north, and they have the Soviet Union and Japan behind them, and the temptation of the multi-level people in GCD is not trivial. If we really tear our faces and fight, we will not be sure of victory, and the economy that has finally improved will suffer a heavy blow as a result. When the time comes, I am afraid that the more I fight, the poorer I will become...... The more you want the proletariat."

Chiang Kai-shek gritted his teeth and glanced at Luo Yaoguo: "In that case, why do you oppose the method of peaceful reunification between China and G?" Wouldn't it be great for peaceful reunification and for everyone to come to the election? "The starters.

Luo Yaoguo waved his hand and said with a smile: "Humble position is not a way to oppose the peaceful reunification of China and G forever, but the time is not ripe at the moment." However, it is better to talk slowly about the negotiations between the north and the south, for ten or eight years, and then talk about it after we have managed our own territory. ”

Chiang Kai-shek looked at Luo Yaoguo with complicated eyes. At present, the national ** army can no longer be commanded by relying on personal prestige and the feelings of superiors and subordinates. If Luo Yaoguo conspired with him, maybe there would be a way to provoke a war, otherwise he would really be powerless to rely on him alone.

"You mean to negotiate slowly with Zhong G and drag things out? You're not afraid of dragging it out for ten or eight years...... They have also established heavy industry, and it will be difficult to protect our advantage at that time. ”

Luo Yaoguo met Chiang Kai-shek's gaze, smiled slightly, and said word by word: "It is beneficial for us to drag it out, don't try to catch up with their heavy industry, the gap between the two sides will only get bigger and bigger." Because...... They didn't have a few years of peace. ”

Everyone's eyes were focused on Luo Yaoguo, slightly curious, I don't know what he meant when he said that there was no better life in peace?

Could it be that there is something going to happen in the north? Or is it the final explosion of Japan's ambitions for Manchuria? The people in the room were all puzzled, only Chiang Kai-shek quietly picked up the teacup and took a sip gently. He said lightly: "Then let's talk slowly...... I'm going to see, what trouble they're going to have? ”

……

At the same time, in the official residence of Sun Yat-sen in Moshan, another lobbying was also carried out to a climax.

Now living here is Mrs. Sun's son, Song Qingling. The attitude of the top level of the Kuomintang towards this Mrs. Sun is also respectful, everyone is respectful to her, and the treatment that should be given is the same as the treatment that should not be given. The Moshan Mansion was still given to her to live in, and the service staff and monthly expenses of the official residence were all provided according to the standards of Sun Yat-sen's lifetime. It's just that the arrangement of Soong Qingling's status in the party has not been followed up for a long time. Not to mention a high-powered vice chairman, I didn't even hear the news of the Central Standing Committee and the Central Executive Committee. However, there are rumors of co-opting Sun Ke as vice chairman of the Kuomintang......

However, while the KMT's top leaders were lukewarm, the friends of Zhong G respected Mrs. Sun very much. Zhou Elai, who came to Wuhan to attend Sun Yat-sen's funeral, often came to his door to offer condolences, and today he also put forward a proposal to ask her to serve as the chairman of the future National Assembly or the Political Consultative Association.

Song Qingling was wearing a plain cheongsam at this time, wearing a white flower on her head, her dignified and beautiful face was full of tears, her apricot eyes were even more red and swollen, and tears rolled down from her eyes from time to time. Sitting next to her and shedding tears with her was Zhou Elai's wife Deng Ychao. The two women were crying and crying, which was really sad to watch.

Zhou Elai, who was sitting opposite the two of them, also looked sad, his eyes were also red, and he was definitely heartbroken: "Mrs. Sun, although Mr. Sun has left us, we should continue to follow his doctrine and his ideals." The 'peaceful reunification' and the convening of the 'National Assembly' proposed by our party are the two major events that Mr. Sun never forgot during his lifetime. ”

Song Qingling reluctantly showed a smile, nodded, and said in a low voice: "Thank you for your party's kindness, these two major events are indeed often mentioned by the prime minister during his lifetime. It's just that there are different opinions within the party about this...... That's why I didn't make a decision for a long time, but I didn't expect it to ......" Speaking of this, Mrs. Sun whimpered softly again.

Zhou Elai raised his eyebrows and exhaled softly. Today, after he broke up with Liao Zhongkai and Deng Yanda, he went straight to the Moshan Mansion with Deng Ychao, and lobbied for an afternoon, when it was dark, this lady was finally relieved. With the support of Mrs. Sun, the great cause of peaceful reunification ...... Maybe there's more hope. Even if it is finally destroyed by the right wing of the Kuomintang, it should be able to win a certain number of supporters within the Kuomintang.

……

East Lake, inside Hu Hanmin Mansion.

"Cousin Zhan, the North is willing to give you the position of vice president. In addition, the convening of the National Assembly is also the case where each faction speaks on the basis of votes, and our party is sure of victory in this regard. Compared with the military forces after the reunification by force, which are strong and difficult to control, peaceful reunification and democratic elections are the safest...... And you and I participated in the alliance back then and devoted ourselves to **, wasn't it just for this day? Now that such an ideal is about to be realized, should we give up this opportunity for the selfish interests of one party and one faction? "The starters.

After Liao Zhongkai persuaded Wang Jingwei, he immediately came to Hu Hanmin's mansion. These two rivals in the Kuomintang are happily setting up a banquet in the flower hall at this time, chatting while drinking, as if they have been close friends for many years.

Hu Hanmin just remained silent, gently turning the wine glass in his hand, as if he was pondering something. Liao's suggestion is indeed very attractive. But Hu Hanmin didn't believe a word. If Zhong G and Zhang Zuolin really have the sincerity of peaceful reunification, why didn't Sun Yat-sen mention it when he was alive? Sun Yat-sen had just passed away, and it was the time when the KMT's power structure was at its most unstable. If peaceful reunification is achieved at this time...... Naturally, there will be no system for the five bigwigs to discuss politics, and if the Nationalist Government and the central government merge, there will be no military commissions subordinate to the Nationalist Government. In this way, the Kuomintang's control of the Kuomintang can only rely on the political consciousness of those division commanders and brigade commanders

To put it mildly, under the current system, those people are nothing more than dogs raised by the military council that tell them to bite whomever they want. However, there would be no Central Military Commission, no War Department, no General Staff, and no multi-level and all-round control by the headquarters of all arms of the armed forces. These guys have become warlords, and when the time comes, they will have to be the same as before, and they will have to be coaxed with sweet words, gold and silver.

Of course, the Nationalist Government could also hand over the entire system of controlling the armed forces of the Military Commission, the War Department, and the General Staff to the central government in Beijing. However, in this way, the Kuomintang ** Army is not the Kuomintang, and if each family and faction does not have private soldiers, it will be forgotten, but is this the case?

Hu Hanmin smiled coldly: "Zhong Kai, the first prime minister has just passed away, and we are all in chaos, where can we take care of 'peaceful reunification'?" The top priority at the moment is the funeral of the former prime minister. Other things will be discussed slowly after the funeral, do you think this will work? ”

Liao Zhongkai took a deep breath and looked at Hu Hanmin with extremely regretful eyes: "Cousin Zhan, Prime Minister is gone, and you, as the chairman of our party, should take responsibility." How can you excuse yourself on the grounds that everything is out of order? Besides...... This time, the GCD and the Feng Department will soon send a telegram to the whole country to propose a method of peaceful reunification and democratic elections. If our Kuomintang does not follow up in time, but drags its feet, and the people of the whole country will oppose us at that time, will our party become the same ** rule as the Beiyang government? "The starters.

As soon as he heard this, Hu Hanmin's thin and long old face suddenly pulled down: "Comrade Zhongkai, please pay attention to your words, the current discipline and administration practiced by the Nationalist Government was proposed by the former prime minister and led us to implement it. As for democratic elections...... There are also clear provisions in the law during the period of political training, and once the 16-year period of political training is reached, it is natural that the government must be returned to the people. Guangdong Province began to train the government in the 13th year of the Republic of China, and in the 29th year of the Republic of China, it will naturally realize the election of the provincial chairman and the legislative council. ”

……

Although they were unable to convince the KMT's top brass, Zhou Elai, Liao Zhongkai, Deng Yanda and others did not give up their efforts. Over the next few days, they began to move around the three towns of Wuhan frequently. He visited various factions of the Kuomintang, democrats in the Kuomintang region, members of the press, and national capitalists. Briefing them on the political proposition of "peaceful reunification and democratic elections" was introduced, and the support of the "opposition forces" in these Kuomintang areas was sought, and through them, pressure was exerted on the ruling Kuomintang authorities.

At the same time, the trade unions and student organizations led by the Southern Bureau of the Central Government also received instructions and began to organize peaceful petitions in major cities in the Kuomintang region in support of the idea of "peaceful reunification and democratic elections." The major newspapers in the Kuomintang region also began to publicize the idea of China G at length. For a time, there was an uproar in all parts of the Kuomintang region, and the five bigwigs at the top of the Kuomintang power pyramid also began to feel the seriousness of the problem.

There was a snap. In the conference room of the Central Party Headquarters of the Kuomintang, the sound of slapping the table was heard again. Then there was a roar with a bit of Fenghua accent: "Niang Xipi, these GCDs, the first prime minister's bones are not cold, they are actually doing nonsense under our noses, inciting student workers and those fools to oppose us How can we get it if we go on like this, I propose to immediately ban the GCD in the training area and arrest these reactionaries who disturb society"

Looking at the thunderous Chiang Kai-shek, Luo Yaoguo shook his head lightly, and said in his heart: "This old Chiang keeps saying that he wants to arrest people, but what will he do after he is arrested?" It's not good to eat and drink to take care of, and it is symbolically closed for a few days or it is still to be released. And as far as the 'party feelings' of the elders in the Kuomintang are everywhere, when the time comes, the intercession will be dredged, and the threshold of a few bigwigs' families will not be broken? ”

Hu Hanmin glanced at Chiang Kai-shek with a pale face, and calmly taught a few words: "Comrade Kai-shek, don't be impatient, our training district has its own relevant laws to punish lawbreakers who disturb society. But...... Now they are not breaking the law, they are just peaceful petitions, how can we, as politicians, not have this elegance? ”

Although he said so, in his heart, Hu Hanmin also knew that Zhong G had seized a God-given opportunity. Taking advantage of the death of Sun Yat-sen, the Kuomintang lost the opportunity of political support, and used "peaceful reunification and democratic elections" as the pretext, which was actually a political offensive against the Kuomintang. Thinking of the current difficult situation, I can't help but start to miss Sun Yat-sen, if he is still an old man, with just one sentence, he can easily resolve the offensive of Zhong G. But now ...... There is no such god in the Kuomintang anymore.

The bigwigs who participated in the presidium meeting also fell silent, and after a long time, Luo Yiqun sighed and broke the silence, his eyes flickered: "Zhan Gong (Hu Hanmin), should we start peace talks with the north, delay it for a while, and stabilize our situation, maybe there will be a turnaround at that time." ”

Chiang Kai-shek couldn't help but shake his head when he heard this, and the negotiations with China and G could only delay for a period of time, and could not fundamentally solve the problem. And once the negotiations begin, the political initiative will fall into the hands of the Central G. When the time comes, if you can't talk about it, you will start fighting again...... is no different from Yuan Shikai back then, even if he has the upper hand militarily, this popular will will be irretrievable.

"We should express our attitude towards this and whether we are in favor of 'peaceful reunification' and 'electing the National Assembly' or not. I guess it's still very helpful for us to win back the political initiative, right? Luo Yao's Chinese tone was gentle, and there was no expression on his white face: "Now the country's economy has just improved, and the people's lives have some hope." Fighting a civil war in such a situation is the most unpopular. Therefore, we should first hold high the banner of 'peaceful reunification'...... In a unified way, we should not accept the proposition of China G, but should put forward our own methods. Luo Yaoguo's tone aggravated: "We must not give up the Nationalist Government, let alone merge the National ** Army and the so-called Central Army, which complement each other, and are an important tool to realize our party's propositions and fulfill the wishes of the former prime minister." Our methods of 'peaceful reunification' and 'election of the National Assembly' should be implemented within the framework of the National Government and the Legislative Yuan after the southern provinces have completed their training and administration...... For now, our concessions to the northern factions should be limited to the recognition of the Beijing government as the central government. ”
