Director Zhou didn't answer, after arriving at the Whampoa Military Academy, Director Zhou was observing Zhuang Jihua, but he didn't understand it until now. If you want to say that he is against [***], Zhuang Jihua has many of the same practices as the party's ideas, such as the plan to go deep into the workers and peasants, and to say that he is in favor of [***], but his words reveal his distrust of Soviet Russia and some of the policies of the opposition party.

"I think it's very difficult, Zhuang Jihua has a deep understanding of [***] theory, even deeper than the vast majority of party members of our party, Jiang Xianyun used to have a good relationship with him, Jiang Xianyun once tried in private, but he refused, according to Jiang Xianyun's report, his reason was that he didn't want to cross the party. But I don't see it that way, I think he rejected it because he didn't agree with some of our Party's policies, which are likely to involve many of our Party's fundamental strategies. ”

"Is this what Jiang Xianyun said?" Chen Yannian asked in surprise.

"No, it's my judgment." Director Zhou said.

"Can you be specific?" Chen Yannian asked after thinking about it.

"For example, he was very wary of Soviet Russia, and once said that China [***] should read as soon as possible and leave the Third International; In addition, Marxism-Leninism should be integrated with China's specific practice, and it will not succeed in China by following the path of Soviet Russia. In addition, he believes that our party should strengthen its military work, preferably to be able to read and master the army, and that cooperation between the two parties should be outside the party rather than within the party. These propositions are contradictory to the current policy of our party. ”

"So, can't his mind be changed?" Chen Yannian understood.

"It is possible to change in other people, but Zhuang Jihua is afraid that it will be difficult. Because his worldview and methodology have taken shape, transformed..., I don't have hope. Director Zhou said very regretfully.

Chen Yannian thought for a moment and nodded yes. Since Zhuang Jihua has a set of theories, then empty agitation will have no effect on him, and if the general plan or method you put forward does not coincide with his theory, it will not be approved by him.

"The Central Committee has decided that our party will not participate in this session of the National People's Political Axe." Chen Yannian let go of this topic and began to talk about the main issue of looking for Director Zhou today.

Director Zhou couldn't help frowning when he heard this, and asked puzzledly, "Why?" ”

"The Central Committee believes that our foundation is too weak, and we should not rush to join the political axe now, but should put more energy into mobilizing the workers and peasants." Chen Yannian said as he took out a document from the drawer and handed it to Director Zhou, who took it and quickly flipped through it. The document enumerated all kinds of events that had taken place in various localities since the May Revolution, and pointed out that the movement has now been out of the control of the Party, and the Party is now being pushed forward by the people, and the reason for this is that our Party is too weak, so the work at the present stage should still be to develop the organization, not to rush to participate in the political axe....

"The central government only sees one side, isn't it better to develop the organization by participating in the political axe?" Director Zhou did not understand the decision of the Central Committee.

"I think so, too, the old man is a little confused." Chen Yannian said with a sigh. It's ridiculous not to participate in the political axe because of the small power.

"Peng Fentian told me that now the orthodoxy of the common people is very strong, and it is very difficult for people who are not political axes to carry out their work; We set up peasant associations in various parts of Guangdong, saying that the common people did not understand it at all, and that they were the base camp and the Kuomintang, and they would immediately understand. What does this mean, the name is not right, and the common people recognize this. Chen Yannian felt angry when he thought about it, the central government was far away in Shanghai, but the center of gravity of the revolution had moved south to Guangzhou, and this kind of detachment from the center had caused a lot of problems, and he mentioned this problem when he reported to the above, but the central government just refused to move to Guangzhou, and it was really not what they thought.

"Comrade Yannian, we must implement the decision of the Central Committee." Director Zhou reminded him.

"I know, I'm just angry and don't understand why we're making such concessions." Chen Yannian said angrily, Director Zhou didn't know what to say, and after a while, he said again: "En, I came to you today because I have an idea, I want you people in the political axe to play a greater role." ”

"That's great, of course, but how?" Director Zhou asked.

"You are now the political commissar of the First Division of the Party Army, and you must make full use of this status to organize more party officers and men to participate in political activities, and our Party comrades in the army must give free rein to the workers' and peasants' movement, and at the same time, you must also expand the influence of our Party in the army as much as possible." Chen Yannian said.

"Okay, that's fine." Director Zhou agreed without thinking. Immediately, he thought of the wooden stick that Zhuang Jihua had said, so he took the opportunity to propose: "Comrade Yannian, I think our party should also control an army. ”

"Tell me what you think." Chen Yannian hesitated and asked, Sun Yat-sen was unwilling to [***] master the armament, the central government agreed not to master the armament, Chen Yannian also agreed with the central government's suggestion at first, but Zhou Enlai has been agitating for the formation of an armed force completely controlled by our party, and officially reported to the central government, but the central government has not replied. Comrade Huang Mingcheng, who was newly transferred, also agreed to the establishment of such a unit, and under their influence, Chen Yannian's attitude was somewhat relaxed.

Seeing that Chen Yannian's attitude was relaxed, Director Zhou said with some excitement: "Now there are many members of our party among the students of Huangpu, so that the army has grassroots officers, I heard that Comrade Ye Ting is going to return to China, he once served as the commander of Sun Yat-sen's guard battalion, and he will be the commander, and he will not oppose it if he wants to come to the Kuomintang, so that our party has an army completely controlled by our party." ”

"If it works, let's try." Chen Yannian thought about it and felt that Director Zhou was right, and this thing was likely to come true.

"After talking so much about the national political axe, when will this national political axe be established?" Director Zhou asked Chen Yannian to agree, his expression was a little excited, and he felt that it was nothing if he didn't participate in the political axe.

"It should be soon, the last time I went to see Consultant Bao, he revealed that the personnel problem has been solved, as long as the personnel problem is solved, everything else will be easy to do." Chen Yannian said.

"The chairman is Wang Jingwei." Director Zhou asked.

"I guess so. Mr. Liao refuses to be the only one. Chen Yannian said regretfully that only Wang Jingwei, Hu Hanmin, and Liao Zhongkai are qualified to be the chairman. However, Liao Zhongkai and Hu Hanmin have more opponents, and it is Wu Chaoshu and Sun Ke who oppose Liao Zhongkai; Against Hu Hanmin were Borodin, Tan Pingshan and others. Therefore, in order to avoid the worst outcome, both sides may nominate Wang Jingwei, in the eyes of Wu Chaoshu and Sun Ke, Wang Jingwei has been following Sun Yat-sen for a long time, is a veteran of the Kuomintang, and it is impossible to follow [***], in the eyes of Borodin and others, Wang Jingwei is a leftist of the Kuomintang, although he is not as supportive as Liao Zhongkai, but he is a completely acceptable candidate. Therefore, Wang Jingwei's election is almost a certainty.

"Your commander may be promoted," Chen Yannian said with a smile.

"Up there?" Director Zhou asked.

"Military Council, concurrently serving as commander of the Guangzhou Garrison Command." Chen Yannian replied.

"Well, I think it's very good, President Chiang is a revolutionary leftist, and he should be given more important work." Director Zhou nodded yes.

"I'll leave this plan here, and I'll go to Advisor Bao in two days and show it to him." Chen Yannian pointed to the plan on the table and said.

"Good. Listen to what he has to say. ”

Zhuang Jihua felt that his luck was not ordinarily good in the past few days, and the generals of the Sichuan army went to the garrison headquarters one after another, and more importantly, they all came alone, so he exchanged ideas with almost every general individually, although these people tried their best to hide their true thoughts, but he still found something.

In addition to Yu Peidi, Zhang Chong, Long Guang, and Yu Ji Tang all more or less expressed their intention to approve of the adaptation, but at the same time implicitly expressed their hope that their environment would change after the adaptation. At first, Zhuang Jihua was still a little happy, although he only said implicitly out of caution, he just heard rumors, whether there was such a thing or not, he had to wait for the decision to be made, and he was only a small lieutenant colonel of the garrison headquarters.

can be contacted more, Zhuang Jihua began to be vigilant, within two days except Xiong Kewu everyone else had the opportunity to talk to him alone, and these things all happened after talking to Yu Peidi, this sentence is not accidental, Zhuang Jihua concluded that it must be the result of Yu Peidi's discussion with Xiong Kewu after he went back, and the purpose is not certain for the time being, but what these people said is definitely not the truth. Thinking of this, he complained in his heart that he was too anxious, and talked too much to Yu Peidi, which made them vigilant.

There was no way, Zhuang Jihua had to report his mistake to Chiang Kai-shek.

"Now you know that there is a sky outside the sky, the little fox meets the old fox, and in the end he is blinded by the old fox." Chiang Kai-shek said with a smile, he has been in a good mood recently, Xu Chongzhi and Liao Zhongkai both told him that after the establishment of the national political axe, he entered the military committee, ranking after Wang Jingwei, Hu Hanmin, Liao Zhongkai, and before Xu Chongzhi.

"Headmaster, I'm sorry I didn't get things right." Zhuang Jihua was a little ashamed.

"It's nothing, eat a trench and grow wise, you are mainly too light on the enemy, when these people are calling for wind and rain in the political and military circles, you are still studying in school. But it's nothing, the worst thing about this is that they pull the flag to rebel, and it's impossible for their little people to pull the flag and rebel, so the worst is to leave Guangdong. Chiang Kai-shek comforted him lightly. Chiang Kai-shek's attitude towards the reorganization of the Sichuan Army has always been to eliminate hidden dangers, so as long as the hidden dangers are eliminated, it is okay to reorganize by force or peacefully, or to expel them by force.

Zhuang Jihua thought about what he had said to them in the past few days, and he felt that these people had not gotten more than Yu Peidi, on the contrary, Zhang Chong and Long Guang were taken out by him.

"Principal, the students think that it is better to peacefully reorganize, and the students' idea is that with the development of the revolution, there will be more and more warlord troops who will come to take refuge in this way in the future, and if we can create an example of peaceful reorganization, or accumulate some experience for the peaceful reorganization of those warlord troops in the future, then we should try it this time."

When Chiang Kai-shek heard Zhuang Jihua's words, he was a little moved, he didn't expect that the reason why Zhuang Jihua insisted on peaceful reorganization was actually for this purpose.

"Well, it's worthy of being a good student of mine, you think far ahead, and it's right, do what you think, no matter what happens, I'll make decisions for you, you work boldly, don't have any scruples."

"Thank you, Headmaster." Zhuang Jihua saluted Chiang Kai-shek and turned to leave.
