Section 8 Nine Changes (5)
Zhuang Jihua was so surprised that he asked Yang Yongtai to be the director of the Yucheng camp? Chiang Kai-shek: What does this mean? Zhuang Jihua's mind was spinning rapidly, and it was easy to say if he refused, but before he understood Chiang Kai-shek's intentions, he didn't want to say anything for the time being, but Yang Yongtai couldn't help it.
"Chairman, I won't leave you, you still need me here, and when you don't need it, I'll go home and study for fun." Having said that, Yang Yongtai's expression was a little sad, which was in line with his mood, although he knew that Chiang Kai-shek had already had the intention of removing him, but he didn't expect this day to come so quickly.
Lin Wei sighed secretly in his heart, he didn't expect Chiang Kai-shek to decide to send Yang Yongtai away so soon, Yang Yongtai has no surprise today, don't look at Yang Yongtai's high position, punching the CC system, kicking the Blue Coat Society, so imposing, but he forgot, these people are Chiang Kai-shek's cronies, they are all from Whampoa, and they are Chiang Kai-shek's power base. If these people are forced to be anxious, they will fight back, and Chiang Kai-shek will not be able to consider it.
"As soon as the Sichuan army was defeated, I was thinking about the candidate for the camp in Chongqing, Mr. Changqing, the situation in Sichuan is complicated, and ordinary people cannot bear such a heavy responsibility." Chiang Kai-shek comforted him and sent him out, to be honest, Chiang Kai-shek was also a little reluctant, but Chen Guofu, Wu Zhihui, and Dai Jitao jointly opposed Yang; The resentment of the Blue Coat Society is also getting bigger and bigger, He Jinhan and Kang Ze both complained to him in person, especially Kang Ze, the special team he formed was vigorously suppressed by Yang Yongtai, and Kang Ze asked him face to face whether he wanted the special team to play a role or just make a decoration. If he can suppress all this for Yang Yongtai, then the reaction of Song Zheyuan and others in the north will become the last straw that crushes the camel.
Although the leak of the reorganization of the German armament made Chiang Kai-shek rectify the chamber, the secret had been leaked, and Song Zheyuan already knew about it, so someone had to take responsibility, and Yang Yongtai was the only one suitable.
"Actually, Mayor He is not bad," Zhuang Jihua said abruptly: "Mayor He is familiar with Sichuan, and he has a classmate friendship with Liu Xiang, so I think he is a very suitable candidate." Mr. Chang Qing is still in control of the center. ”
Everyone understood that Zhuang Jihua did not want Yang Yongtai to go to Yucheng, and even preferred to let him stay with Chiang Kai-shek. Lin Wei was a little uneasy, because this was a decision to oppose Chiang Kai-shek in person. Sure enough, Chiang Kai-shek's face became a little gloomy, and he said coldly: "He Guoguang wants to preside over the staff committee and the mayor of Yucheng, and it is difficult to take care of the affairs of the camp. ”
Zhuang Jihua thought about it and said: "The mayor of Yucheng can be appointed separately, the staff group and the camp are one and the same, and one more person will have more entanglements, so it is better to have one person to coordinate them." ”
Chiang Kai-shek was a little unhappy, he stood up and said coldly to Zhuang Jihua: "The situation in Sichuan is complicated, He Guoguang has military talent, but only Changqing can really coordinate the overall situation and take into account national interests." ”
But Zhuang Jihua still doesn't want Yang Yongtai to go to Yucheng, this person is different from Li Haoyi, Li Haoyi is just a trivial problem, Yang Yongtai is different, Yang Yongtai can go directly to Chiang Kai-shek, he is going to go, Zhuang Jihua is afraid that he will not have to do anything in the future, so he will accompany him to fight.
Seeing that Zhuang Jihua still refused to accept it, Lin Wei hurriedly interjected and said: "The person chosen by the chairman is naturally right, Mr. Changqing is proficient in government affairs, and it will be of great help to the development of the southwest." ”
Zhuang Jihua couldn't accept the practice of the southwest development being owned by the camp, and he didn't have time to accompany Yang Yongtai. But seeing Chiang Kai-shek's attitude, he was a little hesitant whether to continue to persevere.
"Since the principal said it, Mr. Changqing is naturally good, but the development of the southwest cannot belong to the camp." Zhuang Jihua said to Chiang Kai-shek very seriously.
"No, chairman, if I am to be the director of the camp in Yucheng, the development of the southwest must be under the jurisdiction of the camp, otherwise I will achieve nothing in Yucheng." Without waiting for Zhuang Jihua to finish speaking, Yang Yongtai interrupted Zhuang Jihua's words and hurriedly expressed his position. If the development of the southwest is not classified as a camp, what will he Yang Yongtai do?
Zhuang Jihua said lightly: "Southwest development is an important part of the Resources Committee, if it belongs to the industry, how can the Resources Committee explain it?" Moreover, the main work of the development of the southwest is to open mines and run factories, which has nothing to do with the suppression of bandits. ”
"Road construction is related to the suppression of bandits, and the implementation of the armor chief system is also a matter of camping." Yang Yongtai unhurriedly listed what Zhuang Jihua did some time ago.
"That's the matter of the political axe of Yucheng, not the development of the southwest, and besides, the principal" Zhuang Jihua turned to Chiang Kai-shek and said: "When the development of the southwest was agreed, I only mentioned the development of resources, but now it seems that the content of social development must be added, and the reason has been reported to the president, and Mr. Changqing will not know it." ”
Now Chiang Kai-shek is a little embarrassed, Zhuang Jihua is right, the development of the southwest is an important part of the subordinate of the Resources Committee, if the development of the southwest is to be included in the camp, it is strange that the people of the Resources Committee do not make trouble with him, and more importantly, Zhuang Jihua has already spent a lot of money on it, and it is impossible to take it back now.
"Suppressing bandits is three parts military and seven parts politics, and politics is social transformation, which should fall under the jurisdiction of the camp." Yang Yongtai did not budge and continued to appeal his reasoning.
"Cultural Revolution, how about you come to the camp to be a deputy director?" Chiang Kai-shek asked in a consultative tone, Yang Yongtai and Lin Wei suddenly showed a look of surprise, Yang Yongtai felt a little funny, he fought for these powers in order to control these powers in his own hands, if Zhuang Jihua was allowed to serve as deputy director, or in his hands, then what was there to fight for.
Unexpectedly, Zhuang Jihua shook his head firmly: "Principal, we had an agreement at the beginning, I was only responsible for external affairs, I will not participate in the civil war, and after the fight, I will leave, and I will never be attached to the official position." ”
Chiang Kai-shek couldn't laugh or cry, Zhuang Jihua just didn't get in on this issue, but Zhuang Jihua was not finished, he continued: "Mr. Changqing said that dealing with the Communist Party is three parts military and seven points political, in fact, it has been explained that the Communist Party is a political problem, not a military problem, and now that the external trouble is serious, the country needs to be united, and I still advocate the resumption of cooperation between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party. ”
Since April 12, Zhuang Jihua is probably the first to dare to clearly put forward the cooperation between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party in front of Chiang Kai-shek, but Chiang Kai-shek was not angry, he just shook his head: "Now is not the time." ”
But Chiang Kai-shek did not continue to ask Zhuang Jihua to be the deputy director, but turned to Yang Yongtai and said: "The development of the southwest requires social cooperation and social resources, and what the Cultural Revolution did in Yucheng was actually to suppress bandits. ”
Zhuang Jihua finally breathed a sigh of relief, but Yang Yongtai was even more disappointed, even desperate, and he protested: "Chairman, the social reform in Yucheng is different from the method formulated by the central government, and it remains to be tested to prevent bandits from others. ”
Zhuang Jihua reminded lightly at this time: "Mr. Changqing, even if Yucheng is handed over to you, you can't do it well," Yang Yongtai looked at Zhuang Jihua with a little surprise, but the latter's face was very serious: "Really, Mr. Changqing, you know, Yucheng is exempt from agricultural taxes, and the annual tax revenue is only more than three million, this money can only barely maintain the administrative operation of the municipal axe and the surrounding sixteen counties, what do you do with it?"
Yang Yongtai was a little stupid, he completely forgot about this matter, but he immediately thought that since the tax was only three million, what about the funds of the Southwest Development Team, but as long as he could not get the jurisdiction of the Southwest Development Team, the funds could not be transferred at all. In fact, he didn't understand that even if he got the jurisdiction of the Southwest Development Team, he would still not be able to get the funds.
"By the way, I heard about the free compulsory education in Yucheng in Zhejiang, and I thought it could be implemented in Zhejiang, but Zhejiang's finances can't afford it at all. The chairman of the committee? Although Chen Bui left the position of director of the Zhejiang Department of Education, he was still very concerned about education, and he relied on the fact that he had just arrived at the Central Committee and was not clear about certain taboos, and Chiang Kai-shek would not blame him, so he asked. When he asked, not only Yang Yongtai, but also Lin Wei showed a focused look.
Zhuang Jihua glanced at Chiang Kai-shek and was about to answer, but Chiang Kai-shek spoke: "Many people are curious and inquiring, today I will uncover this mystery." The money was his own, and he earned it for six years in Europe and the United States. The funds for the development of the southwest, the military expenses for the Great Wall some time ago, the flood relief funds last year, and the military expenses of the German armor division are actually his family property. ”
Lin Wei was shocked, Chen Bui was dumbfounded, Yang Yongtai was stupid, it was really unimaginable, no wonder no matter what he said, no matter what Kong Xiangxi said, Chiang Kai-shek just refused to remove Zhuang Jihua, and every time he asked for money, he still proposed it in a negotiated tone. Only then did Lin Wei understand why He Jinhan said that the development of the southwest could only be Zhuang Jihua's, and no one could do it without him.
"You just know about this matter, and it is absolutely not allowed to leak it." Chiang Kai-shek said solemnly.
The three of them just woke up from a dream, and Chen Bui said with emotion: "I always thought that I had done a lot for the country, but compared with the Cultural Revolution, I was ashamed, ashamed." ”
Lin Wei knew that he had made the right bet, and it was not unreasonable for Chiang Kai-shek to trust Zhuang Jihua, and he also said with emotion: "Cultural Revolution, what should I say?" I can only admire, the five-body admiration. ”
Lin Wei is very clear, last year's disaster relief funds, Chiang Kai-shek received 100 million, the German armor division is another 100 million, the southwest development cost a lot of money, it is not clear now, but it is definitely not 100 million, how much money was spent to buy the Sichuan warlords, and how much was spent on the Great Wall War of Resistance....
Zhuang Jihua sighed in his heart, he didn't know what Chiang Kai-shek's purpose was for opening this matter at this time, he could completely cover up the past: "It's hypocritical if I want to say anything more, but I still have to say that if this money can buy national security, no matter how much it is worth." It's just that Mr. Changqing, I am arguing with you because we have different methods on how to reform society, and I have already done a part of my ideas in Yucheng, and if we change it now, the rapid change of policy will inevitably affect the people's trust in the political axe, and it will be harmful to the development of the southwest and the suppression of bandits. ”
Yang Yongtai has nothing to say now, he smiled bitterly: "To be honest, I was shocked, I never thought that the huge amount of money for the development of Greece was actually ..., but you are right, there is a difference in our understanding of social transformation, and your method cannot be replicated elsewhere, just say Sichuan, can you wrap it up?" No, but in the implementation of social transformation in these places, they will inevitably have to compare with Yucheng, so that the transformation of these places cannot be carried out. If you do this in Yucheng, it will be difficult for other places in Sichuan in the future. ”
Yang Yongtai is worthy of being a master of government affairs, and he immediately pointed out the biggest drawback of Zhuang Jihua's method -- it cannot be promoted. Zhuang Jihua nodded and admitted: "You are right, some of the ways in Yucheng really cannot be copied, the reason why these strategies were adopted at the beginning was to buy time, and now in retrospect, the aftermath is indeed not small, and only sixteen counties are not enough." ”
The conversation has unconsciously shifted into a method of discussing social transformation. In the conversation, Zhuang Jihua vetoed the social transformation method of the Blue Coat Society, but in order to save Chiang Kai-shek's face, he did not say about the leadership problem, but pointed out that their way is somewhat extreme, in the case of the people without benefiting, first let their interests suffer, which will inevitably cause their resistance, and finally can only be forcibly implemented by force, which in turn causes social unrest, and this turmoil will eventually destroy their policies. It is the general principle that a reformed society must first take care of the interests of the majority of the people at the bottom in order to gain their support.
Yang Yongtai agreed with Zhuang Jihua's strategic analysis of the Blue Coat Society, but he believed that it was impossible to completely ignore the policy of force promotion, and it was possible to implement it forcefully and forcefully. Social transformation that can be piled up with money is equally undesirable, and social transformation should be gradual. For example, education in Yucheng should not be completely free immediately, but should first reduce tuition fees.
…….
…….
Chiang Kai-shek finally breathed a sigh of relief, and Yang Yongtai's matter was finally resolved, and the tension caused by him in all quarters could finally be relaxed. Moreover, through this conversation, he has a deeper understanding of Zhuang Jihua, who only showed strong talent in the military field before, but he did not expect him to have such a deep understanding of civil affairs.
When Lin Wei sent Zhuang Jihua out, Zhuang Jihua thanked him, but he still couldn't help but say the question in his heart: "Brother Weiwen, why does the principal have to put Mr. Changqing in Yucheng?" Isn't it possible to do it elsewhere? ”
Lin Wei looked around and saw that there was no one left and right, so he whispered: "Chang Qing's departure is part of the chairman's adjustment chamber, but it is difficult to find where to go after he leaves, he has offended the CC department, I am afraid it will be difficult to leave here, and Yucheng is restricted because of you, and the strength of the CC department is also very weak, he doesn't go there to go there." ”
Zhuang Jihua was dumbfounded, he didn't say anything, there was a rush of footsteps behind him, the two turned around and saw that it was Xiao Zanyu who came over in a hurry, and when he saw Zhuang Jihua, he asked him to hurry to Chiang Kai-shek's office. Zhuang Jihua looked wrong with him and immediately asked what happened.
Xiao Zanyu said: "When something happened to the Southwest Development Team, Li Zhilong sent an urgent telegram to the president, saying that the professors and team members had pulled up banners in the base to protest against the authorities' indiscriminate arrest of innocent people, and a small number of people were preparing to leave the base. ”
Zhuang Jihua's mind was a little blind at that time, who went to arrest people? Haven't you already explained it? Why didn't Zhilong Lee hold it down?
