8.4 Suspicion

Although Lin Wei had well concealed his intentions and positional tendencies, the sensitive supreme authorities still heard something from Lin Wei's words.

The bribery of Cheng Qian and others to Lin Wei is not a secret to the highest authorities. There are countless bad habits in the officialdom of the Republic of China, and some of them are even old customs left over from the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and the highest authorities have never expected to eliminate the officialdom at once by replacing a head of the chamberlain.

In fact, if it weren't for Qian Dajun's arrogance in the later stage of his tenure as the director of the chamberlain, he was too arrogant and domineering, and he had no scruples about looting money, and the highest authorities would not have attacked Qian Dajun. The highest authorities knew very well that the reason why these people under their command were willing to follow him to life and death was nothing more than power and money. "Loyal to the leader"? That's just a slogan!

It is obviously unrealistic to let government officials and generals live with slogans! The court doesn't let hungry soldiers, and wants your subordinates to die for you, at least you have to feed your subordinates first.

Therefore, Lin Wei helped Cheng Qian and Xue Yue talk, and the highest authorities were not surprised at all.

What the top authorities are really worried about is what kind of relationship Lin Wei and Huang Haoran really have. Just now, Lin Wei had already revealed his appreciation for Huang Haoran between his words, and the highest authorities even had a feeling that in Lin Wei's mind, Huang Haoran's status was much higher than that of Cheng Qian and Xue Yue!

Cheng Qian is a veteran of the government, and it took a lot of money to get a few good words from Lin Wei. What about Huang Haoran? What kind of benefits did he give Lin Wei? In exchange for Lin Wei's help so attentively?

And also! Why didn't Dai Li find out about the relationship between Huang Haoran and Lin Wei!? In the past two months, Dai Li's "military commander" has sent a report on Huang Haoran to the desks of the highest authorities every day. The highest authorities have never seen Lin Wei's name appear in it!

How did Huang Haoran and Lin Wei get in touch? Have they already formed an alliance? If these two people hadn't made a friendship in the past two months, could it be that before Lin Wei took office, Huang Haoran had already started to work Lin Wei?

Then that's terrible! If Huang Haoran knew how to invest in Lin Wei in advance, then he would no longer be a "pure" soldier!

Countless questions lingered in the minds of the highest authorities, and the highest authorities felt a little upset! He is now worried that a new little faction will emerge in the government! After the Battle of Nanjing, the rising young generals in the Central Army all admired Huang Haoran very much and set Huang Haoran as their role model! If it weren't for the original small faction leaders such as Chen Cixiu, Hu Zongnan, and Gu Mosan to stir up trouble in the middle, Huang Haoran would really be able to gather a group of young people and form a family of their own, and compete with Chen Cixiu, Hu Zongnan, Gu Mosan and others!

Against this background, the highest authorities made the decision to transfer Huang Haoran's 25th Army to the 5th Theater of Operations. In fact, the supreme authorities have a threefold purpose in doing this: the first purpose is naturally to be able to keep Xuzhou longer; The second purpose is to see Huang Haoran's attitude towards the miscellaneous army; The third purpose is actually to prevent the split within the Central Army!

After the 25th Group Army withdrew from Nanjing, relations within the Military Commission became very tense over the issue of commending Huang Haoran. Chen Cixiu and Hu Zongnan mobilized the men and horses of their respective factions to jump up and down in Wuhan, and they were very active, but they didn't want Huang Haoran to climb on top of them. The local forces in the government are waiting to watch the show.

In view of the fact that the generals who made trouble were all the backbone of the Central Army and were students who had followed the supreme authorities for many years, the supreme authorities could not take thunderous measures. In the end, Huang Haoran could only be transferred to Xuzhou to serve as the deputy commander of the 5th Theater. In this way, Huang Haoran's official position was not only promoted, the anger of the young generals was calmed, but also Chen Cixiu, Hu Zongnan and others were appeased. Compared with Wuhan, the seat of the government, the 5th War Zone is clearly a pot of boiling water, and sending Huang Haoran to Xuzhou has a somewhat flavorful taste of the frontier.

The development of events was as expected by the highest authorities, and after learning that Huang Haoran would not serve in Wuhan and would not interfere in the several core theaters controlled by the Central Army, Chen Cixiu and Hu Zongnan immediately stopped tossing.

The smell of "party strife" in the army has become stronger and stronger! What's even worse is that these generals involved are all heavily armed without exception! The slightest carelessness in the guidance of the highest authorities between them is likely to upset the balance! That's going to be a terrible situation!

The internal affairs of the Central Army have not yet been understood, and Huang Haoran's trip to Xuzhou has brought new "troubles" to the highest authorities! Under the command of Huang Haoran, the Chinese troops in the 5th theater completely annihilated the 10th Division of Ryosuke Isoya in Taierzhuang, and inflicted heavy losses on the Sakamoto detachment of the 5th Division. An unprecedented victory! During the battle, Huang Haoran cooperated closely with local powerful factions such as Chief Li, Xu Zuyi, Zhang Zizhong, and Sun Lianzhong, which made the highest authorities feel a little uncomfortable.

Although Huang Haoran had called many times to indicate that he had befriended local faction leaders only to fight the Battle of Xuzhou, Jiang Baili also went to the highest authorities many times to exonerate Huang Haoran. But the highest authorities are always skeptical!

Later, Huang Haoran took the initiative to ask for help in the retreat of Xuzhou and asked to break off with Zhang Zizhong and lead the army, which made Huang Haoran suddenly gain the hearts of the miscellaneous army generals! And the highest authorities have become vigilant because of this!

Although Chen Cixiu, Hu Zongnan and others are a little disregarded of the overall situation, they have a clear position and are easy to control. Not to mention anything else, just talk about the relationship with the local generals, Chen Cixiu and Hu Zongnan have almost had trouble with the local generals to the point of incompatibility! This reassures the highest authorities!

On the other hand, Huang Haoran, these young people are a little calm and composing that does not match his age, from the government to the locality, from the central army to miscellaneous cards, there are his friends everywhere, and there is his help everywhere!

What is Huang Haoran so exquisite, and neither side is offended? Waiting for the price to sell?

This is a manifestation of "not taking a firm stand"!

Thinking of this, the highest authority stood up from the chair with a "suddenly" sound, and walked back and forth in the room with some anxiety, his face was quite ugly!

A few days earlier, the highest authorities had received a telegram from Minister He saying that the Japanese army in Xuzhou had begun to advance westward, and that the Japanese troops in the Anqing area were also showing signs of attacking Wuhan along the Jiangxi River. At that time, the highest authorities gritted their dentures and did not move, hoping that the 1st Theater would first produce the original results. But now it's good. Xue Yue not only failed to eliminate the Tufeiyuan Division, but also lost the key points of Lanfeng.

Could it be that this "Battle of Lanfeng" still has to rely on Huang Haoran? Commander Li has repeatedly asked the supreme authorities to commend Huang Haoran, hoping that the supreme authorities will hand over a few more troops to Huang Haoran. And those Soviets in Wuhan are also shouting that their aid should be given priority to Huang Haoran's troops, or stop handing over aid to the Wuhan government!

Why do all people like Huang Haoran so much? Is he "Huang Zhong" or "Wei Yan"? (To be continued, if you want to know what will happen next, please log in to the www.qidian.com, more chapters, support the author, support genuine reading!) (To be continued.) )
