6.75 Visitors from Wang's house
In the early morning of December 16, an uninvited guest came to the temporary residence of Wang Zhaoming, chairman of the Central Political Conference, in Wuhan, and Chairman Wang, who had already slept, did not feel the slightest displeasure, and he asked his henchmen to lead the man in a black suit to his study, make good tea and wait, while Chairman Wang himself was busy dressing in the bedroom, and he did not know how this person would come to meet him at this time. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
The guest drinking tea in Chairman Wang's study was the special envoy of the head of the 8th Section of the Japanese General Staff Headquarters, Akira Kagesa, who was a powerful subordinate of Seishiro Itagaki, a general of the Japanese Kwantung Army; for a long time, Chairman Wang had always maintained private contact with the Japanese, and he was definitely not the only senior official like Chairman Wang in the Nanjing government, and even the highest authorities of the high-profile War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression actually had an inexplicable relationship with the Japanese in private.
This pool of water between Chinese and Japanese government officials is very deep!
Chairman Wang's movements were fast, and he walked out of the bedroom in a short time, and when the night breeze blew, Chairman Wang couldn't help but shiver, since the "assassination incident", his health has been much worse than before, and his political status has also begun to decline.
The three elders of the ruling party of the Nanjing government are now left with the highest authority and Chairman Wang, and now Wang Zhaoming only has the title of chairman of the Central Political Conference, which sounds like this position is still very transcendent, but Chairman Wang himself knows that there is no place for him to speak in the ruling party now, and that Jiang Guangtou has turned the ruling party into his one-person organization!
Thinking of this, Chairman Wang's teeth clenched, he seemed to have been unable to play his old rival, someone told him that in fact, the "assassination incident" was planned by the highest authorities, at first Chairman Wang did not believe it, but later heard more, and he began to gradually get up. In his eyes, this "incident" was simply an excellent opportunity for him to take the position, so Chairman Wang could not wait to stand at the forefront of China's political arena again, continue to adhere to his "flattering Japan" position, and restart his efforts to "save the country peacefully" as a collaborator with the enemy and betray the country, and his traitorous government team was basically formed during this period. Ying Zuo, Zhen Zhao, and Dazuo also began to become enthusiastic about Chairman Wang during this period.
However, what President Wang did not expect was that the "Xi'an Incident" was finally resolved peacefully, and when the supreme authorities returned to Nanjing amid the cheers of the mountains and tsunamis, Chairman Wang's small group had to start holding their tails again, and then it didn't take long for the war between China and Japan to break out. also pretended to be in a tone in the speech of "Last Minute", and said it very boldly. In fact, his heart is very timid, Chairman Wang kept hinting in private that the War of Resistance would be defeated, describing the War of Resistance as "jumping into a fire pit", and the subtext was that he Wang "had no hope of saving the country, so he had to jump into the fire pit".
The time when Chairman Wang's forces were dormant in Nanjing was very difficult, and Zhou Fohai had a basement in his villa at No. 8 Xiliuwan in Nanjing. After the Japanese army began to bomb Nanjing, some important officials of the Nanjing government often came here to avoid air raids, and those who had the same idea as Chairman Wang included Xiong Shihui, Mei Siping, Tao Xisheng, Gao Zongwu and others. They denounced the people's anti-war cries as "singing high tunes" and frantically preached that "it is an accident that we can win the war, and it is inevitable that we can defeat the war." They believed that it was necessary to stop confrontation with the Japanese army, "hug each other and cry, thoroughly repent and become conscious" with the Japanese, and realize "peace" and "cooperation" between China and Japan.
So soon someone named the small group "low-key club" in a mocking tone. Zhou Fohai said shamelessly: "When the tune of "resisting the war to the end" is sung into the clouds, no one dares to sing the low-key of peace, so our small group that advocates peace is called the "low-key club."
Zhou Fohai and Chairman Wang had been at odds for a long time, and had scolded each other for being "not a thing", and both had vowed not to work with them again, but their common political ideas pushed them together. Although Chairman Wang does not directly participate in the activities of the "low-key club", he is the soul of this organization, and Zhou Fohai has also become Chairman Wang's confidant.
The idea of a "low-key club" coincides with Wang Zhaoming. He believes that Japan's annual steel output is nearly 10 million tons, while China's is only a little more than 100,000 tons, and that the gap in national strength between China and Japan has reached an irreparable point.
However, this so-called "low-key club" and "low-key" time did not last long, and with the series of military victories of the Japanese army in North China and Songhu, Wang Zhaoming's desire for "peace" began to become stronger and stronger. In October 37, Chief Li of Guangxi visited Wang Zhaoming, and Chairman Wang repeatedly asked Chief Li, "Do you think this battle can be fought?" As he spoke, Chairman Wang kept shaking his head and sighing, and his attitude towards the war was very negative. Chairman Wang also continued to exert pressure on the supreme authorities, and he wrote more than a dozen letters to the supreme authorities one after another, talking about the "peaceful" idea of handling relations with Japan, but the result was naturally dismissed by the supreme authorities in a few words, and Chairman Wang began to become very dissatisfied with the supreme authorities, and his contacts with the Japanese began to become more and more frequent.
Chairman Wang quickly walked to the door of the study, and meeting the Japanese envoy in his own place actually made Chairman Wang feel a little nervous, and he had already vaguely guessed that the envoy must have come to ask him to do something, and this was a good opportunity to show goodwill to the Japanese!
If your highest authority doesn't go on the road, it's no wonder that I, Wang Zhaoming, made the first move, with the Japanese as a backer, should I look at other people's faces!?
"Mr. Special Envoy has worked hard! There must be something important about visiting so late, right? ”
Chairman Wang's smile was very kind, he wanted to give Kage Zuo Zhenzhao's envoy a comfortable feeling, don't look at Kage Satsuaki Zhenzhao is just a big Zuo, behind him is indeed standing Itagaki Seishiro! I heard that there has been a frenzy in Japan to overthrow Sugiyama Moto, and Seishiro Itagaki is officially the most promising person to take over Sugiyama Moto's position as a land minister!
Therefore, Chairman Wang was very polite to the envoy of Ying Zuo Zhen Zhao Dazuo, which is called not looking at the face of the monk but looking at the face of the Buddha......
"Mr. Wang! We in the Great Japanese Empire really need Mr. Wang to do something for us! Of course, we will never treat Mr. Wang badly! ”
The Chinese language of the "special envoy" is very good, but he can still hear some northeast flavors, and Chairman Wang immediately thought that the "special envoy" should come from the Kwantung Army in the northeast! Or rather, the Kwantung Army from Manchukuo!
Chen Bijun was not satisfied with the fact that Chairman Wang had been sulking under the supreme authority for a long time, and he vigorously encouraged Chairman Wang's desire to "seize power." In order to curry favor with Japan, Chen Bijun even said that "the three northeastern provinces are not China's place at all" and that "Fengtian was originally a dowry brought by the Manchus, but now they are just bringing back their own dowry." Tian shamelessly renounced territorial sovereignty in Northeast China. As soon as these words came out, the whole country was naturally in an uproar! Only Chairman Wang thinks that what his wife said is deeply in line with him, and it can be regarded as a couple with the same smell.
"Wang is willing to hear his auspicious ......." In order to avoid being held up by the Japanese and unable to step down, Chairman Wang's remarks were very subtle, leaving plenty of room for turns.
The "special envoy's" face suddenly turned cold, he was very dissatisfied with Chairman Wang's attitude, and the "special envoy" simply changed his threatening tone and began to speak, for such soft-boned Chinese, sometimes you have to be ruthless!
"Mr. Wang! Don't forget that it is the Japanese Empire that is supporting you, otherwise you would have been squeezed out by your highest authorities! If we in the Japanese Empire can lift you up, we can also throw you down! Don't forget that! Nanjing, it won't take long to be conquered, our Air Force has already begun to bomb Lanzhou! China is about to be finished! Mr. Wang! Do you think you have any other options right now? ”
In Wang Jingwei's mind, it was by no means a day or two days, but caused by his cowardly and inferior personality, freezing three feet, not a day's cold, and now being so frightened by the "special envoy" that Chairman Wang's soul almost flew away, and he did not dare to continue to go around in circles, and quickly expressed his willingness to cooperate.
The content of the conversation that followed became that the "special envoy" said that Chairman Wang nodded his head, and no matter what the "special envoy" said, Chairman Wang accepted it all, and the fear of the Japanese had penetrated into Chairman Wang's bones.
"Anything else? Mr. Special Envoy? When Chairman Wang asked this, he looked like a pug, and the "special envoy" almost forgot the special task assigned to him by General Seishiro Itagaki comfortably.
"Mr. Wang, General Itagaki still has an important matter to ask Your Excellency, the commander of the garrison in Nanjing must be replaced immediately, the progress of the imperial army has been affected considerably, General Itagaki thinks that Mr. Wang will definitely have a solution to help the empire solve this problem!"
Replace the commander of the Nanjing garrison? Chairman Wang almost jumped up from his chair, Huang Haoran is now fighting very well in Nanjing, and the highest authorities are full of praise for Huang Haoran's command, how easy it is to replace the candidate for the commander of the Nanjing garrison at this time!
"This ...... I'm afraid to disappoint General Itagaki that the removal of Huang Haoran is not a trivial matter, and there must be evidence of Huang Haoran's guilt, but unfortunately, Huang Haoran has an excellent reputation, and even corrupt behavior is rarely involved with him, and the Nanjing battlefield is now the top priority of the government, even if there are some small mistakes, it can't bring down his ......"
"Mr. Wang, please rest assured, General Itagaki has already thought of what you need, this is all evidence of Huang Haoran's crimes, Mr. Wang only needs to open his mouth to easily bring down Huang Haoran!"
Saying that, the "special envoy" took out a thick document bag from his briefcase and handed it to Chairman Wang, Chairman Wang took it and opened it and hurriedly glanced at it, and it was indeed some incriminating evidence woven by the Japanese for Huang Haoran.
"Alright! Tell General Itagaki that I'll do my best, but I can't guarantee the result! Chairman Wang gritted his teeth and agreed, although he was afraid that his small group would arouse the alarm of the highest authorities, but the Japanese pressed so hard, Chairman Wang really had no other way.
"Thank you! Mr. Wang! You are a good friend of the Empire! General Itagaki will remember your contributions! ”
One night, the "special envoy" finally said a word of praise for President Wang, and this sentence immediately changed Chairman Wang's mood from gloomy to sunny, and he personally sent the "special envoy" out of the secluded small door to get into the car and leave, and then Chairman Wang ordered his guards and entourage to be vigilant, especially to be careful of strangers who appeared near his residence.
Those who sell the country are weak-hearted......
Chairman Wang would not have known that there were countless pairs of eyes lurking near his residence, and this meeting that took place in the darkness of the night quickly turned into a pile of cold lead letters and sent to the desk of the highest authority!
The highest authorities have been paying attention to Chairman Wang's "low-key club"!
****************************************************
Japan has always harbored the ambition of annexing China, so almost all political forces in China have been manipulated by the Japanese.
At that time, China's political forces were mainly as follows: the ruling party, the remnants of the Manchu Qing dynasty, the local powerful factions, and the remnants of the Beiyang government. The leaders of the ruling party are the highest authorities and Chairman Wang; The leader of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, the old and the young, is naturally the current puppet Manchu emperor; The remnants of the Beiyang government refer to Wu Peifu and Tang Shaoyi, but in the end, one of them died inexplicably, and the other was assassinated by patriotic youths after agreeing to cooperate with Japan. The local powerful faction refers to Yan Xishan, Long Yun, Zhang Fakui, Chen Jitang and others. Although the Japanese have done a lot of work on these powerful factions, they have not achieved much in the end.
As a result, Chairman Wang has become the most important target in the minds of the Japanese, and although Wang Kemin of the puppet regime in North China is also a remnant of Beiyang, he is a "small character" compared to Chairman Wang.
At present, the "Mei work" carried out by the Japanese intelligence agencies is in full swing, that is, it is luring Chairman Wang to surrender.
At the same time, the Japanese also launched the "Tong work" to lure the "Tianzi No. 1" figure to the highest authorities.
Itagaki Seishiro's subordinates have two generals, one is Kagesa Zhenzhao; The other one is Takeo Imai. The two men differed greatly in their claims to the lure of Chinese politicians. Ying Zuo Zhenzhao took the line of supporting Chairman Wang; Takeo Imai, on the other hand, wanted to negotiate peace directly with the highest authorities. Imai Takeo believes that since the Qing Dynasty, the final solution to all wars between China and Japan has been China's "compromise and seeking perfection", and now Japan has dealt the greatest blow to China in history, and China is also facing the greatest crisis. Moreover, Japan already has President Wang, and if the leader and the highest authorities of China's All-People War of Resistance also turn things around, then Japan will get incomparably huge benefits!
Therefore, when Chairman Wang and the Japanese were "discussing the state of the country" and the "Tong work" was also in progress, the highest authorities immediately realized that the Japanese could not win over him alone, so important personnel of the Nanjing government were sent to spy on him.
Chairman Wang's small actions have already been clearly displayed under the noses of the highest authorities!
He believed that it was necessary to take advantage of the Japanese mentality, and as long as they did not talk about key issues, they might as well act with the Japanese, so as to deal a blow to Wang Zhaoming's "peace" movement in Nanjing, and second, to gain an understanding of the strategy of the Japanese military headquarters.
To understand the intentions of the Japanese military is to understand the intentions of the Japanese government. After the "226" incident in Japan, the government's cabinet and land ministers must be on active duty of the Japanese army. No matter who will form a cabinet, as long as your policy is not in line with the military's wishes, then you will not be recommended to a candidate for land minister, and if there is a shortage of five ministers in the cabinet, how can you form a cabinet? Therefore, the influence of the Japanese military on the political arena is very important.
The highest authorities took great pains to get in touch with the Japanese. The highest authorities were worried that it would not be clear if it got out, so they decided to send some people who were not government officials and had access to high-level government officials to contact the Japanese. The identities of these people are all true, but they are not themselves, most of them are spies of some "military commanders".
Among them, the most famous is the "fake Song Ziliang", Song Ziliang was originally Song Ziwen's younger brother, and he is related to the highest authorities. His photo has never been published in the newspapers, and people don't like to be lively, so many people have never seen it. Japan is very satisfied with the selection of such a person, and the Nanjing government of Jue has sent such a figure, at least there is "sincerity." The devil doesn't know that this Song Ziliang's real name is actually Zeng Guang. Every time I go to Japan, we talk about substantive issues. This false representative prevaricated with words such as "I want to ask for instructions" and "this needs to be studied." I asked for instructions to study it, and the Japanese side was annoyed, so I began to doubt the authenticity of this representation. But the Japanese spent a lot of effort unable to investigate the true identity of the "fake Song Ziliang".
The negotiations continued, and the highest authorities reaped the benefits of this, as he was at least able to learn about the intentions of the Japanese at any time, and also discovered a number of officials and dignitaries who were close to the Japanese.
Wang Zhaoming is the biggest fish among these "pro-Japanese factions"; looking at the report on Wang Zhaoming's mysterious meeting tonight, the supreme authorities have already guessed who Wang Zhaoming is, and what the supreme authorities are more interested in is what kind of deal Wang Zhaoming has made with the Japanese.
The bones of this old opponent are still a little too soft, and now is the time when the people of the whole country hate the Japanese the most, and now they are rushing to get involved with the Japanese, isn't it asking for their own death?
Still hasn't made the climate......
