404. Who's lonely night is under the shadow of the lamp

Qiu Liang pretended to be surprised: "Shanghai branch? Why not the Beijing branch? It is now early March, and Mr. Keqiang and Chairman Dunchu will soon go north to discuss the formation of a cabinet. As soon as they leave, who else in Shanghai can preside over such a big event, Wang Yiting (Wang Zhen), the minister of the Shanghai branch? Although he is quite prestigious in Shanghai, he is inevitably unknown to everyone in the country! ”

Yuan Huaxuan picked up his wine glass and said: "Who is presiding over this matter, I believe that Mr. Zhongshan has his own considerations." This kind of problem is sought by meat eaters, and our brothers are all from the army, so what's the point? Come on, come on, our brother still continues to drink and catch up. ”

Qiu Liang also picked up his wine glass, and still asked persistently: "Senior brother, you know that the younger brother eats the bowl of rice of the news newspaper, and now the newspapers in Beijing, Shanghai and other places are like carp across the river, and there are broadcasts, magazines, etc. to seize the share, if there is no exclusive news, how can the newspaper survive?" Therefore, the younger brother implored the senior brother to leak some news, which can be regarded as a bowl of rice! ”

Yuan Huaxuan hesitated for a moment before replying: "Not long ago, didn't Mr. Zhongshan set up the Kuomintang Shanghai Transportation Department in Shanghai and elected Ju Meichuan (Ju Zheng) as the minister? The Ministry of Communications was originally responsible for communications and liaison work, and it was within the scope of its responsibilities to preside over the establishment of the Sino-Japanese Alliance. ”

Qiu Liang shook his head: "Impossible! No way! With such a major event as the establishment of the Sino-Japanese Alliance, which is co-chaired by Mr. Katsura Taro and Mr. Nakayama, is it only Jumegawa on the Chinese side who has come forward to handle it? Senior brother, don't laugh! ”

Yuan Huaxuan asked rhetorically: "If there is a relationship between the brothers, who should preside over it?" ”

Qiu Liang said: "Naturally, Mr. Keqiang and Chairman Dunchu are the most suitable!" ”

Yuan Huaxuan said with a smile: "Mr. Keqiang is in Shanghai now. It is not necessary that there will be no attendance at that time. As for Song Dunchu, he is now busy with his cabinet formation plan, even if the inaugural meeting is held in Beijing. I'm afraid he may not be available to participate. What's more, Ju Meichuan's qualifications may not be inferior to Song Dunchu? ”

Qiu Liang's eyes widened: "If the younger brother is not mistaken, when Ju Meichuan joined the Alliance, he was introduced by Song Dunchu. Now Song Dunchu is the chairman of our party, Ju Meichuan is not even a senator, the difference between the two is so great, but the senior brother said, 'Ju Meichuan's qualifications are not necessarily inferior to Song Dunchu', I don't know why the senior brother said this? ”

"Although Jumeichuan joined the party late. But he soon caught up. You see," Yuan Huaxuan said, folding his fingers: "Before and after Song Dunchu served as the chief writer of Shanghai's "Minli Daily", Ju Meichuan also served as the chief writer of Singapore's "Zhongxing Daily" and Yangon's "Guanghua Daily"; When the Xinhai Revolution broke out. Song Dunchu planned the revolution with Chen Yingshi and others in Shanghai, and Ju Meichuan was also engaged in revolutionary work in Hankou, and actively participated in the Wuchang Shouyi, assisting Li Huangpi in organizing the government. At a meeting of the Federation of Representatives of the Provincial Governors. Song Dunchu was a representative of Hunan Province. Ju Meichuan is the representative of Hubei Province; At the beginning of the first year of the Republic of China, when the League was reorganized, Song Dunchu and Ju Meichuan were both officers. It shows that the two have about the same qualifications.

Brother Ren emphasized that Song Dunchu is the current chairman, but he is only one of the nine directors, and he is only entrusted by Mr. Zhongshan to act as the temporary chairman; Although Jumeichuan is not even a senator, he follows Mr. Nakayama every day and helps with various affairs. In the end, there is little difference between the two, and there is not much difference. If Brother Ren deliberately emphasizes the difference in positions. At that time, during the Provisional Nationalist Government in Nanjing, Soong Jiaoren's nomination of Minister of Internal Affairs was not approved by the Senate. And Ju Meichuan is also the deputy minister of internal affairs and the acting chief of internal affairs! ”

Qiu Liang couldn't help but be dumbfounded.

Yuan Huaxuan also said: "At the beginning of January this year, Mr. Zhongshan delivered a speech on the topics of "The Rise and Fall of the Party's Strength Depends on the Intelligence and Morality of Party Members" and "The Party Should Emphasize the Party Program and Party Morality" at the Kuomintang Shanghai Communications Department's Cordial Conference, emphasizing that Party members should attach importance to moral cultivation. What is Party Member Morality? It is morality to respect the superiors and keep points, and it is morality to obey the rules and orders. Whether it is Song Dunchu, Ju Meichuan, or you and my brothers, they should all understand that Mr. Nakayama is the real chairman of the Kuomintang, and he has the indisputable right to make decisions on all affairs within the party, including who will preside over the establishment of the Sino-Japanese Alliance this time, as well as the appointment and dismissal of personnel within the party. ”

After eating a few more chopsticks, Yuan Huaxuan said goodbye and left on the grounds that he was busy with affairs, leaving Qiu Liang alone drinking residual wine. Qiu Liang naturally understood what Yuan Hua said in and out of his words, but he didn't dare to think about it, because the more he thought about it, the more he felt chills, as if he had fallen into the ice cellar of the cold winter moon.

Let's say that Yuan Huaxuan returned to the hotel, and when he entered the door, he saw Junzaburo Yamada, Dai Jitao, He Tianjiong, Song Yaoru and others discussing secretly under the lamp. When Yamada saw him coming back, he bowed deeply on the tatami mat before he asked with a smile, "Yuan Jun, how is the situation?" ”

Yuan Huaxuan rubbed his hands: "Qiu Yuncun is here to inquire about the news, it is estimated that he smelled a trace of abnormality from somewhere, so he came to probe the mouth, but fortunately, I have been perfunctory." However, our plan should also be implemented as soon as possible, since Qiu Yuncun is aware of it, then Song Dunchu will definitely receive the information. In case Song Dunchu is strictly vigilant, or completely falls to Yuan Weiting or Sun Baixi, it will be troublesome! ”

Song Yaoru pouted: "What Song Dunchu is best at is to deceive ordinary people with a three-inch tongue, in addition to asking for money or not, asking for soldiers without soldiers, what other tricks can there be?" It is a life-saving move to completely fall to Yuan Weiting or Sun Baixi, but as the acting chairman of the largest party in the Congress, even if he can wipe his face and surrender, Yuan Weiting and Sun Baixi must dare to accept it! ”

He Tianjiong also said: "It is true that as Mr. Jiashu said, Yuan Weiting still wants to continue to be the president, so naturally he does not dare to offend our Kuomintang; Sun Baixi is a good gentleman, he only cares about his own one-third of an acre, and he will not directly conflict with us. Which of them dared to take in Song Dunchu? However, Song Dunchu dared to disobey the yang and the yin, and reorganized the alliance made by the blood of the martyrs, in an attempt to empty Mr. Zhongshan, and colluded with Huang Keqiang, Yuan Weiting and others to privately discuss cooperation inside and outside the party, and he had his own way to die! ”

Junzaburo Yamada said at this time: "A few days ago, when Mr. Nakayama met with His Excellency Katsura Taro, His Excellency Katsura Taro clearly pointed out that Yuan Weiting, Song Jiaoren and others were not loyal politicians of the Republic of China, and would eventually become enemies of the Republic of China, Mr. Nakayama, and the Great Japanese Empire; If Mr. Nakayama were to rise to power again, the Empire of Japan would surely give him full support. Therefore, please rest assured that this punishment will receive the full support of the Empire of Japan. ”

Yuan Huaxuan asked, "Then what is your preliminary plan?" ”

Song Yaoru straightened up and replied: "Hasn't Song Dunchu been vigorously attacking Yuan Weiting and Zhao Zhi'an's government recently, trying to make enemies and self-respect? Then we will plan and use the names of Yuan Weiting and Zhao Zhi'an to kill this traitor. After the incident, the people would only think that it was Yuan Weiting who was annoyed and angry, and Zhao Zhi'an was in power to send someone to assassinate Song Dunchu, and they would never have thought that we did it. ”

Yuan Huaxuan stroked his palm and praised: "Mr. Jiashu's plan is wonderful, not only can get rid of Song Dunchu, but also push Yuan Weiting and Zhao Zhi'an to the cusp, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone." So how do you do that? ”

Song Yaoru smiled slightly: "How to operate this matter, please also ask Mr. Yamada to explain." ”

Junzaburo Yamada bowed to everyone before he said respectfully: "The next idea is to contact Yuan Weiting and Zhao Zhi'an's cronies as a Japanese national, to see if he can buy one of them with national righteousness or money and beauty, and then let him contact Shanghai in the name of Yuan Weiting and Zhao Zhi'an." In the future, once the incident happens, the matter can be justifiably pushed onto Yuan and Zhao.

After selection, the target was preliminarily circled as Zhao Zhi'an's secretary Hong Yinzhi (Hong Shuzu). This person has a bad character, has always been mercenary, and has colluded with British, French and other foreigners for money several times before, betrayed his teachers and friends, but fortunately was rescued by relatives and friends to be lightly dismissed, and escaped the catastrophe by luck. Although Hong Yin's character is not enough to worry about, he is the best candidate for us, as long as he takes advantage of it, he can easily get it. ”

Everyone had heard of Hong Shuzu's "glorious deeds", and they immediately nodded in unison when they heard the words.

Junzaburo Yamada continued: "As for Shanghai, we should consider two approaches. On the bright side, we invited a well-known figure in Shanghai to come forward and recruit frustrated soldiers and market hooligans to participate in the assassination as killers. This person must be outwardly neutral or biased towards the northern government, but on the inside he is a loyal member of our party, in case Mr. Zhongshan is implicated in the investigation of the case. I know that the alliance will operate in Shanghai for a long time, with Chen Yingshi (Chen Qimei) in front and Huang Zhaofu (Huang Ying) in the back, it should not be difficult to find the right candidate! ”

Dai Jitao's eyes lit up: "If you want to say the most suitable person, there is no one more than Ying Kuicheng (Ying Guixin)!" Although Ying Guixin was born into a wealthy family, she was extremely supportive of the revolution and had a good relationship with Chen Yingshi and Mr. Zhongshan. When Chen Yingshi was appointed as the governor of the Shanghai Military Governor's Office, he was appointed as the head of the Espionage Section of the Governor's Office, and he had a grasp of the secrets. When Mr. Nakayama returned from overseas, he was in charge of reception and security; After Mr. Sun Yat-sen was inaugurated as the Provisional President of the Republic of China, he successively served as Commander of the Presidential Guard and Chief of the General Affairs Section of the Presidential Office. It can be said that he is a loyal person of our party.

"Ying Kuicheng is not only a veteran of the Alliance, but also a master of the 'big' character of the Green Gang. After the government of the Republic of China moved north, he recruited the Qing, Hong, and Gongkou gangs in the lower reaches of the Yangtze River to organize the Gongjin Association, and served as the president, and through Hong Yinzhi, he got in touch with Zhao Zhi'an, and was appointed as the chief inspector of Jiangsu. On the surface, he can indeed be regarded as the leading figure in Shanghai who is biased towards the northern government, and it is reasonable for Zhao Zhi'an and Hong Yinzhi to contact him about the assassination. ”

Everyone nodded in unison again.

Junzaburo Yamada also said: "I know a little about the corresponding gentleman below, and it is best for him to preside over the assassination on the surface." As for secretly, we should also place assassins around Song Dunchu, and be responsible for responding to the assassination operation on the surface when it is carried out to ensure that nothing goes wrong. I think Mr. Zhongshan's close entourage in Song Dunchu also has a secret pile, right? (To be continued.) )
