Chapter 560: Youyan is not a native country (18)
The secretary didn't guess wrong, Wang Zhaoming's blood boiled again at that moment, what did he do for from the beginning of participating in the revolution, just to promote himself and put himself at the peak of power, he asked himself this question many times, but he didn't know how to answer, and now he has reached the peak of power as he wished, but he was suddenly extremely disappointed, and the scorching breath of the female student burned him, and he suddenly realized that the original ideals and blood were discarded by him like a shoe.
Now that the obstacle in front of him has been removed, let's do a big job, and the car was rerouted halfway, and instead of going to the Executive Yuan, he went to his daily office place, because he had a big business to do.
That night, several telegrams flew from Nanjing to the north and south of the river.
In Jinan, Shandong, Yang Xiaoou held a telegram in his hand, and smiled at Wu Xiaoliang with a playful expression:
"Junzuo, did Wang Zhaoming take the wrong medicine?"
Wu Xiaoliang didn't know why, took the telegram, read it up and down, put the telegram on the table, clapped his hands and smiled: "Wang Zhaoming is actually enlightened." ”
Yang Xiaoou was puzzled.
"How to enlighten you."
"Brother Yi Ru came to see, Jiang Zhongzheng was by no means willing to go into the wilderness, he just wanted to repeat the old tricks, the key departments and military power are still firmly grasped in his hands, he just gave up the positions of the national government and the military committee, but one thing to note is that these positions themselves do not have a strong power base, and their size varies from person to person, Jiang Zhongzheng's military power in this position is like a tiger with wings, and Wang Zhaoming has no military power, sitting in these two positions is to put himself on the fire and roast."
Yang Xiaoou still doesn't understand, he understands this, Wang Zhaoming is just a stamping machine like Feng Guozhang back then, and even worse, Feng Guozhang still has some troops to support him, and he has also been a local real power supervisor, no matter the military and political circles, there are his protégés and former officials, Wang Zhaoming is different, purely engaged in party affairs, has always had no soldiers and no power in his hands, even if he is allowed to do this position, how can he command the arrogant soldiers of the Central Army, and how can the local warlords listen to him as a bare-bones commander.
"This telegram is not just a telegram of inquiry seeking the opinions of the state."
Wu Xiaoliang stood up with his hands on the table, pacing back and forth in the room, in fact, he was ready to make a deal with the local warlords, Yang Xiaoou nodded, he seemed to understand Wang Zhaoming's intentions a little, could it be that he had always looked down on him.
"Junzuo means that Wang Zhaoming did this in the end to deal with Jiang Zhongzheng."
"It's completely correct, even if it is not for the purpose of dealing with Wang Zhaoming, but objectively it does command Jiang Zhongzheng's army."
Originally, this was a telegram soliciting opinions, specifically addressed to the major warlords in China, which roughly meant that in view of the Japanese invaders' large-scale occupation of Chinese territory and the slaughter of the common people, he decided on behalf of the Nationalist Government to divide the whole country into five major theaters, and these five theaters were not just theaters that controlled military units, but fully delegated local administrative power, and handed over most of the administrative power under the control of the Nationalist Government to the supreme commander of the theater.
Wang Zhaoming is taking a risk, if he does this, it is equivalent to encouraging local warlords to become independent of the central government, and over time they will have the qualifications to argue with the central government, but there is another advantage of doing so, that is, the powerful theater commanders who have obtained legal status will inevitably fight to the death for their own turf, and objectively the domestic will to resist has become stronger.
Of course, this is not the most outrageous; at the end of the telegram, Wang Zhaoming once again inquired that he was preparing to start a war against Japan, and that the Japanese had already started a war against China in fact, and that he was unwilling and unable to deceive himself on behalf of the Nationalist Government, allowing the Japanese to wreak havoc on the land of China, and in the end his tone actually tended to be tough, in short, the declaration of war against Japan was a policy that must be formulated, but it was only a question sooner or later.
"Jiang Zhongzheng made a shrinking turtle when the national crisis was at hand, of course, he did not necessarily mean to avoid the war, he did this to retreat as advance, because he knew that Wang Zhaoming had no soldiers and no power in his hands, and he could still maintain the operation of the government in peacetime, but it was a fatal blow to Wang Zhaoming under the pressure of foreign enemy troops, as long as the Japanese army put a little pressure, the central army sat back and ignored it, and in the end, the national government fell into a crisis, and the pressure on all parties suddenly rose, and Wang Zhaoming was forced by pressure to ask Jiang Zhongzheng to come back and clean up the mess."
Yang Xiaoou sneered.
"Jiang Zhongzheng played a good hand and made his own bet on the survival of the country and the nation."
Wu Xiaoliang came to sit down in front of the sand, but sighed softly.
"After Beiyang, the military and political brain generation is not as good as the generation, and now for the power in their hands, they can sell anything, including their own souls, no matter how good the excuse is."
Isn't Wang Zhaoming in his previous life such a person, Wu Xiaoliang never doubted the purity of this person's original ideals, otherwise it would be impossible to sacrifice himself to assassinate the regent, a person is not even afraid of death, and there is nothing that he can't let go, yes, that is power, it is such a person who regards death as home, sells his soul for power, and achieves his own infamy through the ages.
And today, is Wang Zhaoming still the same Wang Zhaoming, Wu Xiaoliang doesn't know where the deviation is, but he clearly remembers that Wang Zhaoming has not diminished in the days after Jiang Zhongzheng went into the wilderness, and all he can do is to watch Jiang Zhongzheng's comeback, what happened to Nanjing, or that there are masters around Wang Zhaoming who are guiding him.
In any case, the centralization of power has been weakened, the authority of the central government has declined, and the strength of the local warlords has been guaranteed to be maximized in law, and he has nothing to lose from Wang Zhaoming, who has nothing, but Jiang Zhongzheng is different, so that his central army will be reduced to the same position as the local warlord army, and it will be difficult for him to use local taxes to support his central army.
At the same time, the declaration of war against Japan will win him the support of the whole people at the greatest stage, and his name Wang Zhaoming will be deeply rooted among the broad masses of Chinese people, and his patriotic image will be fixed, and if anyone dares to hinder his patriotism, then he will be a sinner of the country and the nation, and the spittle of the whole country can drown him.
This person has no him, it is Jiang Zhongzheng, who is waiting for a comeback after going into the wilderness, but this time Jiang Zhongzheng's hopes are disappointed, and Wang Zhaoming will slap him with a backhand to the eyes full of gold stars.
Yang Xiaoou finally suddenly realized that Wang Zhaoming's actions seemed absurd, but in fact he killed many birds with one stone, and in politics he was very likely to win over Jiang Zhongzheng's political enemies, and gave all Jiang Zhongzheng's political enemies enough benefits and sweetness, and at the same time the declaration of war against Japan pushed Jiang Zhongzheng, who had always pursued the policy of appeasement, to the blind corner of moral righteousness, and after Wang Zhaoming distributed the telegram to mobilize the whole country to resist Japan on behalf of the Nationalist Government, how much courage and cheekiness did Jiang Zhongzheng have to openly oppose the anti-Japanese telegram.
"It's a tricky blow, but Wang Zhaoming did this, and the side effects were also very obvious, he never thought that doing this would tear China apart in reality."
Wu Xiaoliang said with a smile: "Isn't it broken up now, what he did was just give us those disputed power spaces that Jiang Zhongzheng controlled." ”
"Jun Za means."
Yang Xiaoou took a breath of cold air.
"The whole country is electrified, Shandong and Henan fully support and resolutely implement the resolution of the national government, and send a telegram to Han Qing to let him support it together."
Yang Xiaoou didn't expect that Wu Xiaoliang would stand on Wang Zhaoming's side so happily.
Early the next morning, the major cities of the country were boiling, Wang Zhaoming, on behalf of the Nationalist Government and the Military Commission, sent a telegram to the whole country to declare war on Japan, calling on everyone to arm themselves to resist Japan and save the country, and try to survive in danger.
Immediately afterwards, Zhang Xueliang also expressed his telegram after Wu Xiaoliang, expressing his firm support for Wang Zhaoming's decision, and at the same time donated all his personal property to the Nationalist Government as anti-Japanese funds.
This move is of great practical significance, and invisibly Zhang Xueliang set off a non-governmental fund-raising activity to resist Japanese patriotism and save the country, and in just a few days, tens of millions of materials and money were transported to the anti-Japanese front.
On this day, North China completely fell, and Zhang Xueliang was the last to cross the Yellow River to the south, so Shandong completely became the forefront of the anti-Japanese resistance.
The next day, Yan Xishan sent a telegram to the whole country expressing his support for the decision of the Nationalist Government and the Military Commission, and at the same time assuring that he, as the supreme commander of the theater, would definitely live and die with Shanxi, and that he would not withdraw from Shanxi until he died until the Japanese invaders were defeated and retreated.
In the past few days, the warlords of Sichuan, Yunnan, Guizhou, and Guangdong have responded under the leadership of several bigwigs, and the leader Jiang Zhongzheng, who has retreated to the second line for a while, seems to be forgotten by the world.
Feng Yuxiang's telegram came a little late, but his telegram came out of Hankou, no one knows how he got to Hankou, but one thing can be confirmed, Lao Jiang's army left behind in Huguang retreated, Feng Yuxiang miraculously came back from the dead, and was appointed by Wang Zhaoming as the highest military and political commander of the Huguang Theater.
A little later, news came that Zhang Xueliang arrived in Xi'an and officially assumed the post of military and political chief of the Shaanxi-Gansu Theater, while Wu Xiaoliang was appointed as the supreme military and political chief of Luyu without any suspense, and at the same time, a large number of military and political chiefs were born in the southwest and southeast.
Of these military and political commanders, Wu Xiaoliang faced the greatest threat, and he was responsible for almost all of the most elite Japanese troops.
Almost overnight, the anti-Japanese enthusiasm of the whole country has been mobilized, and in addition to setting off a fund-raising craze, the people have also added a craze for joining the army.
Eventually, however, the shape deteriorated inexorably.
