Volume 3 Step by Step Chapter 205 Turning the Tiger Away from the Mountain (Part II)
Fang Zhibin was obviously also very satisfied with Wu Ming's reception.
At present, the status of the secret service in both military and political circles is not as high as Wu Ming imagined, after all, the banner of "military unification" has not yet been erected, because the nature of the work of supervising the army is not at all welcomed by the generals in the army, and there are many cases in which the divisions are treated coldly, and it is all because Chiang Kai-shek forcibly asked for the support of his Whampoa students that they reluctantly carried it out.
However, in the new Second Division, Fang Zhibin did not feel discrimination, which made him look forward to the next step of the work, and yesterday's trip made him unsatisfied, and he was planning to go deep into the regiments and battalions of the New Second Division from today to get a good understanding of this well-known unit in the army, see where to start the work, and set up a political training organization as soon as possible.
Invited to come today, Fang Zhibin originally thought that Wu Ming wanted to discuss with him on the work arrangement, but he didn't expect to hear this unexpected request.
"It's because Shanghai is so important to China that it's coveted by jackals...... Brother Fang won't forget the Songhu War of Resistance five years ago, right? ”
When Wu Ming said this, his face was full of anger, Huo Ran pushed away the chair and stood up, walked to the pavilion with his hands behind his back, admired the beautiful scenery of the early sunshine after the rain, smelled the fragrance of flowers wafting from the direction of the garden, and said in an extremely sad tone:
"Little Japan will not die, if it were not for the great changes that occurred in Xi'an a year ago, perhaps the war would have been delayed for a year or two, but as the Kuomintang and the Communist Party once again move towards cooperation, the Japanese army, which is worried that the Chinese people will wake up and unite, will inevitably strike first."
"I expect that the war will begin in the north in August and September of this year at the latest, and once the Japanese offensive suffers a setback, it will inevitably attack the idea of Shanghai, and strive for the cooperation of land and water, and drive directly from the mouth of the Yangtze River to Nanjing, so as to force our national government to surrender. At that time, Shanghai will become the focus of contention between China and Japan, and our new Second Division, as the second batch of integrated divisions, is very likely to be on the front line...... How can you not really understand the topography of the Songhu area and the deployment of Japanese troops in Hongkou, Yangshupu and other places? ”
Fang Zhibin was stunned and didn't speak for a few minutes.
Wu Ming returned to the coffee table and sat down, his eyes blazing at the overcast military supervisor: "Also, Brother Fang, you don't know that salt and rice are expensive, although the reorganization plan of the Central Military Affairs Committee has come down, but the weapons and equipment and military salaries that should be added have not even seen a shadow, and we must find a way to raise funds ourselves......
"It just so happened that our people found natural high-quality fluorite ore in the mountains west of Maoliangwu, and I suspect that it is a high-quality mineral deposit that has never been found before, so I want to go to Shanghai by the way to hire excellent geological experts from Europe and the United States to go back and have a look...... If the situation can be confirmed, it will be beneficial to the country, to the nation, and to our new second division."
Although Fang Zhibin wanted to oppose going to Shanghai, he couldn't say anything, who didn't know Wu Ming's notoriety? At the beginning, there was an uproar on Lushan, and even Chief Qian Dajun couldn't get off the stage, but he didn't go back to western Zhejiang to bring troops
Fang Zhibin was very worried that Wu Ming would casually find an opportunity to kill himself and his assistant after turning his face, who would he reason with at that time? So he hesitated for a long time before asking:
"And what about my job? According to the plan of the Central Military Commission and the Ministry of Military Affairs, all integrated divisions of the Central Army must establish political training institutions at all levels within half a year.
"With my full help, I won't be able to get things wrong"
Wu Ming said with a smile: "Everyone will eat in the same pot in the future, what is ten days and a half months?" The most important thing at present is to raise funds for the troops, so that you don't panic when you have food in your hands...... In addition, when we go to Shanghai, we can also observe the defense of various parts of eastern Zhejiang by the way, find potential safety hazards in time, and then sort them out and report to the upper part of the city."
"Internal inspection is originally a matter for Brother Fang, once the war between China and Japan starts as I expected, if Brother Fang can find the problem in advance, he will definitely be favored by the chairman because of his meritorious report."
"It's-"
Fang Zhibin hesitated: "Let me think about it...... If you leave the station without permission, if you don't have a perfect reason, your boss will probably blame you."
Seeing that Fang Zhibin hadn't made up his mind yet, Wu Mingyu made a sharp note: "I think so, today and tomorrow, I will make some reasonable deductions about some changes that may occur between China and Japan, write an analysis report and hand it to you, and you will forward it to Director Dai Yunong to see what he will say."
"Okay"
Fang Zhibin saw that Wu Ming's words had come to this point, and Zhilu Dao did not say that it would be difficult to gain a foothold in the new second division in the future, so he had to smile and nod
"After I arrived in Changshan, I had a lot of impressions and saw the vigorous demeanor and tenacious and hard-working training spirit of the officers and men of the New Second Division...... When the time comes, turn it in. ”
"But I would like to emphasize here that I must faithfully carry out my duty as long as the above day does not accede to our request...... Shizao, I want to take a look at the regiments and camps as soon as possible, especially the Phoenix Mountain base, I heard that the training facilities there are even better than the Changshan camp
"No problem"
Wu Ming was unequivocal, smiled and said: "In the afternoon, I will accompany you to the directly subordinate engineer battalion and baggage battalion to take a walk, I think you will like our troops."
Fang Zhibin said goodbye and left, Sun Chengyuan turned out from behind the flower platform opposite the pavilion, walked into the pavilion in Wu Ming's white eyes, and asked:
"Big brother, when it comes to friendship with all the bigwigs in Shanghai, we are not weaker than this guy sent to monitor us from above...... Previously, Zhu Wenhua had already hooked up with Huang Jinrong, and Li San's family had already cooperated with Du Yuesheng's company to make money, even if it was my senior brother, he also had a relationship with some old people in the Qing Gang, why bother to ask for this person's name? ”
"What do you know?"
Wu Ming snorted: "It's peacetime, these dark lines can not be used without moving, let alone let others connect them with us, and they will play a big role at a critical time in the future, besides, this guy is sent from above to monitor us, if we really establish a political training organization, our every move will be watched, who can stand it?" ”
"Therefore, the best way is to transfer the tiger away from the mountain, let this grandson go to Shanghai with me, and when we come back from Shanghai, we will find a way to drag him back, and wait until the war starts in July and August, what should this grandson do, who is in the mood to take care of him? How about it, do you want to go to Shanghai?
Sun Chengyuan suddenly smiled: "Okay, okay, big brother, I have long wanted to go to Shanghai to see, I heard that Shanghai is known as 'Oriental Paris, known as the largest city in the Far East, this time I must open my eyes"
"You, you really didn't pursue it, didn't you just go to Shanghai, even if it was ten times more prosperous than this, what ......?"
Wu Ming shook his head, returned to the room and talked to his wife and daughter for a while, making his daughter giggle, listening to Fang Zhichun talk about the preparations made for moving to Maoliangwu, and gently admonished a few words, then he came to the stables in the backyard and took out his own zebra, patted the ugly horse's head that came up and rubbed it affectionately, turned over on the horse, and went back to the Changshan camp to write a report.
