With the progress of the purge of the party in Guangzhou, similar acts were carried out in other regions. Under the forcible orders of the Guangzhou government, the Qing Party Group was stationed in many local governments to preside over the work, but after the Guangzhou incident, the Northern Expeditionary Army, as the main military force of the new government, never expressed its position.

Without the support of the military, it means that the Qing Party will not be able to effectively carry out the work on a national scale, and the new government has also hung up the phone to the headquarters of the Northern Expeditionary Army many times, and even some veterans of the League have gone to Huang Ke to persuade him to express his position immediately and not hesitate anymore.

However, no matter who called, they all got a unified answer: Commander Huang Ke was busy with military affairs and didn't know where he was now?

If the other side asks for a phone call from the military front, they will refuse on the grounds that they do not know or do not have a phone. If the person who came continued to ask again, the personnel of the military affairs department who answered the phone would unceremoniously hang up the phone directly, and if they called again, they would not answer.

For a while, many people began to look at Wuhan: this is the location of the headquarters of the Northern Expeditionary Army, which means that this is the highest power center of the Northern Expeditionary Army, and every move here represents the attitude of such a brave and warlike army on Chinese land.

After demonstrations in various places, some people wanted to go to the headquarters of the Northern Expeditionary Army in Wuhan and ask Huang Ke to come forward with Huang Ke, so that Huang Ke could immediately raise troops to overthrow the dictatorship and restore the last wish of the former premier to build the country.

However, the command received an order that no one should enter the headquarters in times of war.

More and more of those who petitioned gathered in front of the headquarters, and finally several thousand people gathered and surrounded the headquarters. At this time, someone in the crowd shouted and rushed in, and then some people shouted, and the originally orderly crowd began to mess up, and everyone began to move forward spontaneously.

Thousands of people gathered into a large stream of people and began to rush towards the gate of the headquarters, and the hundreds of soldiers who lined up in a wall at the gate of the headquarters couldn't help but show frightened expressions on their faces.

These people are battle-hardened warriors, they are not afraid of death, but for such a crowd, they don't know what to do?

"The headquarters is a military powerhouse! Those who cross the cordon will be killed! Seeing this situation, Chen Miaoshui, the commander of the headquarters guard battalion, stood and waved his big hand, and shouted at the thousands of people in front of him.

The attacking crowd stopped, and most of the people in the crowd were like that, when they faced a weak person, as long as one person took the lead, everyone would rush to the top, but when they faced the strong one, they all stopped.

The riots were thus stopped! Chen Miao, the commander of the guard battalion, was already sweating in his hands, and his back was already soaked with sweat.

When they couldn't see Huang Ke, these people gathered in front of the headquarters of the Northern Expeditionary Army and didn't leave. Some of these people asked Huang Ke to uphold justice, and some asked Huang Ke to clear the party in the Northern Expeditionary Army.

In order to show their determination, the two factions wrote their demands in blood, and many of the letters were written in real blood. According to an officer of the Northern Expeditionary Army Headquarters, he roughly calculated that all the blood books added up to more than 6,000cc, which is completely a normal amount of blood in a person's body.

More and more people gathered in front of the headquarters of the Northern Expeditionary Army in Wuhan, and Huang Ke knew that it was impossible to hide all the time, and there must be a conclusion to this matter.

Important party journals of the Kuomintang also published editorials one after another, suggesting that Huang Ke should resolutely and resolutely lead the Northern Expeditionary Army to take the lead in carrying out the action of purging the party and ensure the purity of the revolutionary army. Left-wing newspapers and publications also published articles at this time, suggesting that Huang Ke show his determination to break his wrist and completely purge some authoritarian people in the government. Below this article, the former premier's Three People's Principles and last wishes are also prominently marked.

The two factions are facing each other in terms of public opinion and action, and neither side has stopped. At this time, the warlords such as Zhang Zongchang and Zhang Zuolin who are most happy to see this situation are the ones who are most happy to see this situation.

At this time, Huang Ke was in a kind of torment, from the bottom of his heart, he did not want the Red Party's power to be too large, such consequences have appeared in history, but he must stop the current purge of the party, otherwise it will have an extremely adverse impact on the situation in China.

The military power was in his own hands, but at this time he was restrained by the Guangzhou government.

Conflict, anxiety, confusion...... These bad emotions filled Huang Ke, he knew that he had to go out and have to make a statement, but how to express his position? How to express one's stance are all questions.

After Huang Ke read the newspapers that appeared in the party newspapers and periodicals, he crumpled them up and still found them in the paper basket. He didn't intend to be on either side, nor was he going to be a gunman for any faction. He had to prevent the Red Party from having too much power, and also from preventing the Kuomintang from being a one-party monopoly, and Huang Ke had his own plans for these.

However, he could not blindly take measures, the art of balancing required him to adopt extremely clever means, with a stick in one hand and a carrot in the other, and at the slightest sign of adaptation, otherwise a bad situation would occur.

A few days later, the Central Committee of the Nationalist Government in Guangzhou issued an order to the Northern Expeditionary Army Headquarters: Huang Ke himself must rush back to Guangzhou for a meeting.

Within ten minutes, Huang Ke received a phone call, which was personally from Wang Jingwei, asking him to return to Guangzhou for a meeting to report on the advance of the Northern Expeditionary Army.

On the phone, the tone between the two people did not have the usual greetings when they met, and became cold and unfamiliar. Huang Ke did not emphasize any difficulties, nor did he say any "no", not even his tone changed, he just repeated "yes!" as a soldier! "Understood!" , Wang Jingwei wanted to say something to him after he finished the order, but Huang Ke hung up the phone without hesitation.

Huang Ke hung up the phone and sat there for a full few hours, he maintained a posture almost motionless, like a statue, and the fourteen boys standing at the door wanted to step forward and say something, but he was afraid of interrupting Huang Ke's thinking.

To tell the truth, following Huang Ke for so many years, he has never seen Huang Ke like this, even before being searched by Mo Rongxin with troops, the Japanese arresting him and the Northern Expedition, he has never been so cautious and worried, it can be seen that he is very concerned about this matter, and it is difficult for people to choose.

After a few hours of thinking, Huang Ke suddenly bounced up from his chair, his hand clasping the wind buckle on the collar of his khaki military uniform, and the other side shouted out the door.

"Fourteen boys, go and notify all the executive officers of the headquarters to hold an emergency meeting" Huang Ke finished speaking, and Fourteen boys snapped on his heels, and then ran out numbly.

Huang Ke picked up the phone again, and after shaking the line, he hung up the phone again, and after a while, he called the personnel in the confidential room and printed out the order he had drawn up.

The "Order" now conveys the order of the Northern Expeditionary Army Command: In all non-front-line combat units of the Northern Expeditionary Army, immediately dispatch troops to stabilize the order on the streets and arrest any illegal and criminal elements who disrupt social order! ”

In the conference room, Huang Ke handed out the order that had just been drafted to all the officers present. These officers included both members of the Kuomintang and the Red Party, and many more were non-partisan, and after the purging movement, there was also some commotion in the Northern Expeditionary Army, and the Kuomintang and the Red Party in the ranks sometimes argued, and even had group clashes.

After noticing this, Huang Ke was like a fish in his throat, and the war was imminent, and this situation would never be allowed to happen.

In the conference room, a number of senior officers sat down, and they began by whispering and discussing the agenda of the upcoming meeting.

With Huang Ke's vigorous footsteps, the conference room returned to silence, and a group of officers all stood up in unison.

"You may all be seated!" When he arrived at the front seat, Huang Ke sat on it without hesitation, he took off the big-brimmed hat on his head and put it on the table in front of him. Huang Ke reached out to pick it up, then smiled and said, "It seems that the people outside really want to see me, and even you don't want to leave me?" ”

As soon as this sentence came out, all the officers present laughed, and the originally tense atmosphere suddenly became lively. Huang Ke saw that the goal had been achieved, so he waved his hand and signaled to send the document he had just drawn up to everyone.

"I've already drawn up the order, now I'll show you, if there are any different opinions that can be put forward" Holding the white ceramic cup in front of him, Huang Ke gently took a sip of the boiled water inside.

The meaning of the order is very clear, it is necessary to "dispatch the army to maintain order in the city where it is located, and arrest all criminals according to law", why send the army? Who are the criminals? Everyone understands, but they don't seem to understand, the chaos is because of the party purging movement, but who are the criminals? Is it the pistol-wearing Qing faction who searched for Red Party personnel everywhere? Or the masses of workers who strike with sticks? Obviously, this doubt was on everyone's face.

"Is there anything else you don't understand? It doesn't matter, this is an internal meeting, if there is anything you don't understand, you can bring it up" As soon as Huang Ke's voice fell, the officers sitting on both sides looked at each other again, and after a while, they whispered.

"If you have an opinion, just say it!" Huang Ke put the teacup in his hand heavily on the table, making a dull sound. Bai Chongxi, Li Zongren and others all set their sights on Huang Ke.

"Report to the commander, there is something that my subordinates don't understand," a young officer stood up.

"What don't you understand?"

"Who are the criminals in the order? Who are the disorderly ones? The young officer was bold, and he asked the questions that everyone else expected.

"Whoever disturbs the social order is whoever is who, there is no specific target, whether it is the yellow jacket sent from Guangzhou, or those workers with axes, as long as they disturb the social order, they will be arrested, do you understand now?" After Huang Ke finished speaking, he picked up the teacup in front of him and drank tea slowly, completely ignoring the surprised expressions around him.

Although the theme is clear, everyone can see that Huang Ke is against the Qing Party, because it is they who are now disrupting the social order.

"Now I want to make it clear to you that our army is China's army, not the private property of a group, so it doesn't matter what your identity is? It doesn't matter what your political views are? Please remember who you are, all right, that's all for today's meeting, and you all carry out the orders! ”
