In the eighteenth year of the Republic of China, the Nanjing National Government, the Office of the Chairman of the National Government.

Chiang Kai-shek met with Ma Bufang, the king of the Northwest, on his sofa, who was originally a small person in the Northwest Army, and at most a brigade commander.

Ma Bufang, born in 1903, was a high-ranking Kuomintang general and former ambassador of Taiwan's Zhu Saudi Arabia.

With the fall of Feng Yuxiang, because of his ethnic and religious advantages, he quickly ascended to the throne and became the new king of the northwest, which shows that this person still has some strength.

Chiang Kai-shek held a teacup in his hand, and did not let the young man do it, but squinted his eyes and looked at the young man in front of him carefully.

The rain and smoke curled in the teacup, and Chiang Kai-shek had no intention of speaking. He was inspecting the young man in front of him.

The information that Dai Li gave himself, this young man is ridiculous and unreasonable, and he is also very cruel, and I don't know how many good women in the northwest have been played by him.

This kind of person happened to fall into the arms of Chiang Kai-shek, and Chiang Kai-shek seemed to have no selfish intentions, and even after he passed that impulsive age, he gradually coveted that position, let alone others.

The more people who do great things, the stronger their desires, and not all of them are Zeng Guofan. Liu Yuan is very capable, but he has no needs, and he is very serious in everything, and he is also very prestigious among the people, which proves that he needs something higher, and he has to guard against him no matter what.

And the young man in front of him has good ability, but there are many shortcomings, he should be able to control him, what he has to do now is to test him and see if there is awe.

And Ma Bufang is indeed very good, honestly standing aside with his head down, looking at Chiang Kai-shek without saying a word, like a child waiting to be admonished.

With a cup of tea, Ma Bufang was motionless. Chiang Kai-shek felt almost over, nodded and said, "Bufang, I heard that you are doing a bit of nonsense in the northwest." ”

"Chairman, Ma Bufang is young and ignorant, please punish him." Ma Bufang didn't raise his head, and continued, he knew that his current strength and strength were not farts compared to the central government, and he didn't have the same strength as Liu Yuan, so he dared to argue with the central government.

"Well, it's not a problem to make mistakes at a young age, the important thing is to know that mistakes can be corrected, in this way, the seventh phase of the Whampoa Military Academy is enrolling, you should go to the military academy for further study for a period of time." Chiang Kai-shek said.

"Headmaster, the subordinates of the lowly position are all a bunch of rough people, and the lowly is afraid that the lowly position is not there, and they are making some trouble, but it is not good." If Ma Bufang hadn't come to Chiang Kai-shek.

"If you stay in the northwest all the time, you will never be able to see their good or bad, Xianyong, you only give them the opportunity to perform, you can find talents, find mediocre talents, as for the people you said, don't worry, Xue Yue's army is in the northwest, as long as anyone causes trouble, the central army can march into the northwest in an instant and help you teach them a lesson." Chiang Kai-shek was able to settle the fate of a warlord with a smile and a laugh, and he liked it.

"Headmaster, although the lowly subordinates are not very honest, they will not do anything to rebel against the central government, you can rest assured. He also felt that his ability was limited and was willing to enter the Whampoa Military Academy for further study. Thanks to the principal for training. Now that the wolf is in the tiger's den, his young wolf is not Chiang Kai-shek's opponent, so he can only obey Chiang Kai-shek's arrangement.

"Father, this little guy said that his father was called away by the villain, I don't know who his father is?" Chiang Ching-kuo was holding a little guy in his arms.

The little guy's tears were all tears, and he was shaking a drum in his hand, pouting his mouth, looking aggrieved.

"This!" Chiang Kai-shek looked embarrassed. However, Chiang Kai-shek reacted quite quickly, "Zixiang (Ma Bufang, the word Zixiang), let me introduce you, this is the dog Jingguo." ”

"It turned out to be a noble son, and the son's arms were the dog-ri's horse followers."

"Zixiang, it turns out that you are also a second person, a second person. Jingguo came over and got to know Zixiang, people are not like you, lieutenant general, but not like you who have achieved nothing. Seeing Chiang Ching-kuo with a big mouth and an embarrassed face holding the child, although Chiang Kai-shek wanted to laugh in his heart, he still eased the embarrassing atmosphere while talking and laughing.

This Ma Bufang really has no ink, such a person sitting in the northwest can't be a big deal.

It's just that Chiang Kai-shek didn't know what to say, all this was pretended by this young man, he was not only a hero, but even the little guy in his arms was also an amazing character.

"The principal doesn't want to laugh at Bu Fang, Bu Fang grew up in the northwest and has no culture, since the principal calls his son a dog, I can only call my son a donkey."

"Okay, okay, this matter is over, since Bu Fang intends to enter the military academy to re-study, let's start from the grassroots level, General Zhang Zhizhong is very good at fighting, and he can definitely learn a lot of skills from him, even Admiral Liu Yuan also learned skills from him!" Chiang Kai-shek patted Ma Bufang on the shoulder to show encouragement.

Ma Bufang didn't expect that he would pass Chiang Kai-shek's test so easily, and thought that he would become a member of the Central Committee in the future, so he wanted to take the opportunity to ask for benefits.

"Headmaster, now the northwest can be regarded as entering the arms of the central government, but this northwest is a poor place, and the lowly position is not good at governance, I hope the central government can give the northwest army a number." gave the number, it is the army recognized by the Central Army, and even if it is a type B unit, the salary will not be too small.

"It's also called the chairman, now that you are also a military cadet, just call me the principal, you don't have to worry about the number, give you an army establishment, and it will be organized into the new Second Army of the National Revolutionary Army, but the Central Committee will send party representatives and other political workers, and at the same time, it will also be dispatched to the northwest with a task force, I don't know if you have any objections." Chiang Kai-shek smiled kindly, but as he finished speaking, the room was as cold as winter.

Ma Bufang himself never thought that he would fall into such a field, he was already respectful enough to Chiang Kai-shek, but he didn't expect that Chiang Kai-shek did not give himself a reward, but let himself enter the military academy to restudy.

What is even more odious is the dispatch of party representatives and task forces to the Northwest, isn't this a clear annexation of the Northwest? For the first time, Ma Bufang thought of rebellion.

But this idea didn't even dare to show it on his face, Liu Yuan had just entered Sichuan, and he had ideas about the northwest, and the central government also had ideas about the northwest, and he couldn't beat anyone, so he could only choose one of the two strong ones.

Liu Yuan is definitely not good, and there are many warlords who surrender to him, but as long as they have done bad things, they are basically killed, and they have harmed so many women, there will definitely be no good end, and they can only take refuge in Chiang Kai-shek at this time.

Although Chiang Kai-shek can send party representatives into the northwest, but the northwest is his own territory, and the clan power is still very strong, and he does not have to worry about the northwest becoming Chiang Kai-shek's world completely no matter what.

Chiang Ching-kuo looked at his father with his own eyes, solved the fate of a warlord while talking and laughing, admired it very much, and sighed in his heart that this was the real man, and it was really wrong for him to criticize his father in the Soviet Union.

"Father, you are much stronger than the prime minister, although the prime minister has great ambitions, but no warlord has bowed his head in front of the prime minister like this, it seems that your ambition is about to be realized." Chiang Ching-kuo said adoringly.

"Hehe, you also look up to your father too much, this is all your senior brother's help, if it weren't for him sweeping away the newly rising warlords of the national government, I wouldn't be able to control half of the country, and we are not as good as we imagined now, the Gui family has been on the move recently, and the Red Party is also very active, we must quickly stabilize the rule of the southern country, so that we can do bigger things."

"Father, Liu Yuan has betrayed you, why are you still treating him like this, he is not worthy of being my senior brother at all." Chiang Ching-kuo's remark was somewhat flattering to Chiang Kai-shek.

Chiang Kai-shek shook his head and said, "You don't have to be like this, I know that you admire Liu Yuan very much, Liu Yuan used to be a real national soldier, a national soldier, but he made too fast progress." His power is like a spark in the prairie fire, he is not fighting alone, you look at who is around him, Jiang Xianyun, Du Yuming, Zuo Quan, and even the older generation of Song Ziwen have fallen to him, it can be seen that he has really gone to another level, from a soldier to a politician, he now represents another force, and their power is very popular within our Kuomintang. ”

"You mean the reformists."

"It can also be called the New Deal faction, haven't you been studying in Jiangxi recently? How it feels. Chiang Kai-shek asked rhetorically.

"Senior brother is really not an ordinary person, the Jiangxi model he left behind, although it is a bit similar to the Soviet Union, but it can concentrate Jiangxi's strength to do great things, you don't know that although the Jiangxi Ammunition Factory and Jiangxi Iron and Steel Plant are only temporary factories, but his production capacity can meet the needs of a 100,000-strong army."

"No, no, you exaggerated the production capacity of those two factories, Liu Yuan's one division has about three times the firepower and weapons and ammunition of ordinary troops, that is to say, the weapons produced by those two factories are only enough for 30,000 people, and I am ready to put that steel plant into civilian use."

"If you follow the Jiangxi model, the communist industry can also be expanded, and the weapons and ammunition produced can be continuously equipped to the army, and it is a pity to put them into civilian use."

"Little child, I'm starting to worry about national affairs, don't worry so much, hurry back and prepare, fly with me to Chengdu tomorrow, your senior brother is going to become an army, and I, a teacher, will go anyway."
