Chapter Seventy-Two: The Friendship of Great Men
More than 6,000 people were admitted to the 100,000 Examines, and most of the rest joined the 10th Army, the 4th Army, and the 1st Army and became a part of the Whampoa Army. At the same time, due to Liu Yuan's management of the school, the Whampoa Military Academy specially sent more than 1,200 students from the fifth phase of the general school to join the Wuhan branch and receive education from the Wuhan branch.
At the beginning of January 1927, the Wuhan branch was formally established, as a member of the Central Executive Committee, Liu Yuan naturally invited a large number of executive members to attend the opening ceremony, Mrs. Song Qingling was the first to attend, and others included Wang Jingwei, Chiang Kai-shek, Sun Ke, Zhang Jingjiang and so on.
At the same time, CP party members, such as Dong Biwu, Director Zhou, and Mr. Mao also attended the opening ceremony, and they all had a pre-exam position just above the front desk.
Now Liu Yuan's status in the national government is really getting higher and higher, when there was a meeting in the past, if there was a meeting, Liu Yuan always sat in the most marginal corner with his comrades.
Now that he has become a member of the Central Executive Committee, not only does he sit in the front row, but even his wife lets himself be by his side, I don't know how jealous Wang Jingwei is.
In fact, to be honest, Mrs. Song doesn't like Wang Jingwei's side very much, but in the eyes of Mrs. Song, Wang Jingwei, who inherited the mantle of Mr. Zhongshan, is too weak to fight Chiang Kai-shek at all. Liu Yuan is really good, daring, capable, liked by many government elders, and also has his own strength, he has always been young before, he can't do anything, and Mrs. Song has not been too much contact with Liu Yuan.
Now that Liu Yuan has become the principal of the military academy, and at the same time as a member of the Central Committee, and concurrently serves as the Minister of Education, in the eyes of Mrs. Song, Liu Yuan is likely to be ready to transform into politics, and all Mrs. Song specially expressed her closeness to Liu Yuan.
Sitting in the front row, talking intimately with Liu Yuan all the time, I don't know how many people Lu Dao envied, but Liu Yuan himself didn't notice it, just respect from the heart.
Mrs. Song is the mother of the country, his appeal is still very good, he is on the rostrum, although his voice is not very loud, but the students listen very seriously.
Although they had just entered the military academy, and many people didn't even know how to stand in a military posture, they still persevered and didn't miss a word.
The opening ceremony lasted for a whole morning, and Chiang Kai-shek, Wang Ching-wei, and even Liu Yuan himself gave speeches, and for the students who had just joined the Wuhan branch, they were already numb, and they never imagined that one day they would meet so many big figures of the Nationalist government.
Liu Yuan also gave a 15-minute speech on "What to Read in Military Academy" on the podium, and in just 15 minutes, he was interrupted more than 30 times by the excited young people with applause, so that the entire national government once again saw Liu Yuan's appeal.
Director Zhou also wanted to say a few words on stage, but he was forced by Mr. Mao, and many students didn't like this middle-aged man with a mouth full of Hunan flavor, but Mao was not angry.
Instead, he gave a passionate speech, perhaps some people didn't listen carefully at first, because in their hearts, they were here to join the army, not to listen to him talk about peasant relations, but when Mao's "Report on the Investigation of Hunan Peasants" finished speaking, it had a huge impact on the students of the whole school.
Even Mrs. Song had a deep impression of this CP party from Hunan for the first time.
After the opening ceremony, Liu Yuan's life as a principal officially began, and Liu Yuan officially became a real teacher in everyone's field of vision.
Many of Liu Yuan's old subordinates expressed their incomprehension, with Liu Yuan's identity today, why would he be demoted to a military academy for killing a fugitive.
And Liu Yuan can only tell them in his leisure time that now the two factions of the Nationalist Government are fighting over the issue of moving the capital, and with the participation of CP party members, it is likely that our soldiers will need to stand in line at that time, and I, Liu Yuan, am a soldier of the country, not a tool of someone, and I am not willing to participate in this kind of thing.
Liu Yuan's words attracted the attention of many people, and Song Xilian directly resigned as the division commander and became the second general to join the Wuhan branch.
And Xiang Zhang Lingfu, Ning Bo and other descendants around Liu Yuan, they don't even need to think about it, even if they stay in the army, they were transferred to the military academy by Liu Yuan's order.
Of course, just because of this reason, it is not enough to let Liu Yuan become the principal of the military academy, but Liu Yuan did not expect that he would be able to complete an amazing leap forward as a soldier and become a member of the Central Executive Committee. But this also makes Liu Yuan very vigilant, that is, his current foundation is very unstable, he came out of the army, and there are not many people in the political circles to support him at all, and his ability to take the position this time is already the political legacy left by Mr. Zhongshan and Mr. Liao Zhongkai, and then play a role, they can play once or twice, but they can't play a role three times, if they want to get their full support, then they must form a complete alliance with them, but is this really good? However, this member of the Central Executive Committee is real, for example, if nothing else, even if it is a seniority, with Liu Yuan's age, he can become the boss of the Central Committee sooner or later.
Once when Liu Yuan and Mao discussed agricultural affairs together, Mao both lamented that Liu Yuan became an executive member of the Kuomintang at such a young age, and he would definitely have a lot to do in the future, and he would have a lot of time to show his talents, but he had nothing.
Of course, Liu Yuan knew what the depressed Mao in front of him could do in China in the future, for the purpose of respect, perhaps for the purpose of speculation, Liu Yuan also persuaded him several times, Tianxingjian, a gentleman to self-improvement, Liu Yuan even invited Mao to the military academy many times to help students with political education, just in Mao's depressed days, Liu Yuan also disappeared from everyone's sight of the days, the two took over a deep friendship, and even to the point that after Liu Yuan saw Mao, he went to Mao's pocket to dig out chili peppers to eat, Even Mao himself didn't know when he started to substitute two chili peppers.
Mao even once drank alcohol, domineering, very forked around Liu Yuan's shoulder, "Boy, you are very good, there are many young talents in the two parties, but there are no people who can be the same as you, they are all blind, they can't see the form, they can't understand how to advance and retreat, and they don't have the ability to know people, you have become a good friend today when I am unwilling, and when Lao Tzu is developed, you don't need to ask Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu will definitely agree to your help." ”
Liu Yuan looked at Mao with the wine bottle in his hand, and knew that he must have been drunk, Jiang Xianyun was still by his side at that time, he really couldn't imagine that Mr. Mao, who had always been extremely serious in the past, would have such a comic side.
One will be against Liu Yuan, a guy, who will be against poetry, what a little world, there are a few flies in a mess, and a while they will brag about it, Liu Yuan, this guy will stand on the table and yell, holding a wine glass and telling Mr. Mao, who helps who is not necessarily? When you have a difficulty, Lao Tzu will fight to the death and give you a way to live, don't say that the new generation of our Kuomintang is a fool, and you cp are also fools, let you be a real dragon, and you still want to develop, hehe.
"Hey, hey!" The two of them didn't care about the big light bulb Jiang Xianyun at all, but Jiang Xianyun had no choice but to pour wine, and the last thing left was to rest in the dormitory near the two people.
