Feng Yuxiang is going to be the leader of the United Political Axe! Lao Jiang didn't know how jealous Feng was when he heard the news.

On the last day of 1924, Qu Ming, the commissioner of the GCD, and Borodin, the adviser of the Soviet Union, finally brought the GCD demand to the Nationalist Military Committee: the Kuomintang should support General Feng Yuxiang as chairman of the Yanjing Joint Political Axe, and Chen Duxiu and Liao Zhongkai as vice chairmen.

"Supporting General Feng Yuxiang does not violate the secret agreement you have reached with the powers of the Four Kingdoms." Qu Ming paused and then accentuated his tone: "This is the last chance to maintain cooperation between the two parties and maintain friendly relations between the Kuomintang and the Soviet Union, and I hope you will not make wrong choices again." ”

Chiang Kai-shek glanced at Qu Ming and Borodin with some annoyance. "The stakes are very high, and the CCP does not dare to make decisions on its own, how about our reply to your party and the Soviet Union tomorrow?" Deciding who the Chinese "emperor" should do is indeed a big matter, and it is not something that the current old Chiang can decide.

After sending Qu Ming and Borodin away, Chiang Kai-shek immediately convened a special meeting of the Military Commission and the Presidium to discuss the matter. Originally, the bigwigs of the Military Commission thought that the GCD and the Soviet Union might want to let the GCD people become the commander of Suiyuan in order to expand their territory, and this condition could be achieved by the Kuomintang through the activities of Duan Qirui. I didn't expect that GCD and the Soviet Union were still unwilling to give up the central power, but think about it, as long as Feng Yuxiang is appointed chairman of the joint political axe, it is not an order to take out Ma Fuxiang's capital?

"I think we can agree to the demands of the GCD and the Soviet and Russian sides." Luo Yaoguo was the first to speak in favor, he said: "Duan Zhi has always been a pro-Japanese faction, and the Soviet Union and the GCD will definitely not agree to the pro-Japanese faction as the head of the joint political axe." Moreover, Yanjing is now controlled by the leftists, even if we reluctantly support Duan Zhilao, I am afraid that he will not be able to enter Beijing to govern. Instead of this, we should agree to GCD and the Soviet Union, at least to maintain bipartisan cooperation, to maintain relations with the Soviet Union, as for whether Feng Yuxiang can sit firmly, it depends on their ability on the battlefield. ”

Wang Jingwei frowned and sighed: "Alas, we central Chinese in China can't be the master ourselves, so why do we always have to look at the faces of outsiders to act?" Comrade Zhongzheng, who do you think we will help if we really want to fight? "That's the kind of question you ask! This Wang Jingwei is really good enough.

Lao Jiang was asked by Wang Jingwei that he didn't know how to answer, who to help? It's not good to help anyone. Chiang Kai-shek looked at Luo Yaoguo and said: "The question of who to help will be talked about when the time comes, and the problem now is that they can't fight immediately, so that they can stabilize for a while." Fuwen, your task is to maneuver between the various factions, delay as much time as possible, and avoid the premature outbreak of war. By the way, do you want to send Wang Maoru with you? Wang Boling is now satisfied, he escaped from the battle without being shot, and followed He Chengjun to handle a "internal communication", and after coming back, he officially took over He Chengjun's class and served as the head of the Kuomintang's "internal communication".

"That's very good." Luo Yaoguo nodded and agreed: "General Maoru and Zhang Hanqing should be able to speak." There shouldn't be any problem for Duan Qirui to rely on our military salaries, but Wu Ziyu has to put some effort into it. At that time, Zhang Zuolin and Feng Yuxiang were still allies, and they should not turn their faces so quickly, Duan Qirui always had to give some face when he took the Kuomintang's sponsorship of 10 million a year, and in the end, there was a stinky and hard Wu Peifu left, as long as he could convince him that Feng Yuxiang's "emperor" could do it.

Lao Jiang asked Wang Jingwei again: "Brother Zhaoming, can our finances squeeze out another sum of money?" They can't be allowed to go north empty-handed, they won't be able to accomplish anything. "In this regard, Chiang Kai-shek is still thoughtful, and now the northern warlords are all bitter, even Feng Zhang has no money, if Luo Yaoguo carries the ocean into Beijing to do things, it will indeed be a lot easier.

Speaking of money, Wang Jingwei's face looked much better, and after the Kuomintang betrayed the country to seek glory and signed the "Secret Treaty of Guangzhou" during this period, the financial situation immediately improved a lot. Although the so-called "National Axe Customs Area" has not officially opened its doors to collect money, the syndicate of foreign powers that smelled the smell chased Song Ziwen to lend him money, and the fiat currency issued by the Central Bank of the National Axe was also much stronger.

"Of course there is money." What a cow Wang Jingwei said! He smiled and held out a finger. "Is 10 million fiat money enough? Cao Kun bought a president at about the same price, so let's pay for Feng Yuxiang to buy one too, right? So the USSR and GCD should be satisfied, right? ”

"Ten million is enough." Lao Jiang had a good idea of how much money he would spend to buy, so he began to settle accounts for Luo Yaoguo. "Of the 10 million, 2 million will be used as activity funds, and how will Wang Maoru handle it. The remaining eight million, the Zhang family will give at least five million, they are the key, as long as Zhang Yuting is willing to support us temporarily, this level can be passed, and the affairs of Yanjing will not have much to do with us in the future. "Zhang Zuolin is the most powerful of the three parties, if he can take a step back temporarily, the Kuomintang can arrange for Feng Yuxiang to take the position, so that there is an explanation in the Soviet Union and GCD.

"Ah~uhh The listless Xu Chongzhi yawned again and said, "Zhangong, I think this matter should be done." Why don't we go to Baiyun Mountain to meet the prime minister? ”

Hu Hanmin did not express his opinion at today's meeting, mainly because he did not approve of Feng Yuxiang being the central committee, but there was no better solution, so he had to reluctantly nod and agree. "That's it, we're still too weak to withstand the powers! By the way, Yichen, how is the construction of the steel plant and arsenal of your armament department? ”

"The steel plant can be fully put into operation in the sixteenth year of the Republic of China, the first phase of the expansion project of the Shijing Arsenal has been completed, and the second phase of the expansion is being planned. In addition, we also took over the Hanyang Arsenal, Shanghai Arsenal, Jiangnan Shipyard, and Jinling Arsenal. We are negotiating with the Sheng family to buy it for 5 million, and then the Hanyang Iron Works and the Arsenal will be merged and expanded into a large arsenal. Daye will build another million-ton steel plant. However, this is what we plan to include in the five-year armament plan that began in the 15th year of the Republic of China. "The Five-Year Armaments Plan is an ambitious armaments and heavy industry development plan that the Ministry of Armaments has begun to prepare, preparing to build a large number of heavy industry and military industrial enterprises in five years starting from the 15th year of the Republic of China (1926), thereby greatly increasing China's national defense capability.

"Alright then, you have to hurry up. Feng Yuxiang's matter will be reported to the prime minister by me, and listen to his old man's decision. "Hu Hanmin doesn't know how much is one million tons of steel, but if you think about it, there are only one million tons of steel for 40,000 people, how can it be enough? It seems that he has to continue to pretend to be a grandson. Thinking of this, Hu Hanmin glanced at Luo Yaoguo with some envy, he is young, when this kid becomes the leader, how can there be 10,000 tons of steel, right? At that time, I will probably not be afraid of myself.

The unanimous decision of the meeting was that the Kuomintang supported Feng Yuxiang as the leader of the joint political axe, well, and spent 10 million to help the election! This decision was quickly approved by Sun Yat-sen. In order to defend the proposition of the United Russia and the United Communist Party, Mr. Zhongshan knew where to make some concessions. The next day, Chiang Kai-shek and Luo Yaoguo went to the GCD Guangdong Provincial Committee to inform them of the Kuomintang's decision, and at the same time arranged a journey to the north.

On January 10, 1925, the Kuomintang delegation to the north officially set off, this time headed by Liao Zhongkai, who had returned from the Soviet Union to Yanjing, China, where he would meet the delegation. The deputy head of the regiment is Zou Lu, who is a member of the Central Executive Committee, a member of the Standing Committee, and a youth minister of the Kuomintang. There is also Dai Jitao, a member of the Central Executive Committee of the Kuomintang, a party representative of the Central Military Academy, and director of the Political Department, who mixes much better than another time and space. Sun Yat-sen's son, Sun Ke, who is now a member of the Central Executive Committee of the Kuomintang and mayor of Wuhan, also went north this time to take up his post in Wuhan, the new "capital" of the Kuomintang. In addition, there are three representatives, Luo Yaoguo, Wang Bailing, and Deng Yanda, of which Deng Yanda is already in Yanjing. Luo Yaoguo's new wife Lu Xiaobei is the German secretary of the delegation, and Wu Chong, a graduate of the first phase of Whampoa, is responsible for managing the accounts of the delegation, and Cen Biqing is the Chinese secretary and is responsible for copying and writing.

There are also two intelligence officers in the group who are also graduates of the first phase of Huangpu, one is named Wan Yanhao, he is a gangster in Shanghai, and he is recommended by Du Yuesheng to Huangpu, and he knows everything about the gang. The other person is the young master of the Maggie family, a great nobleman in Tibetan Province, who was recommended by the Dimu Living Buddha to Whampoa, and this time he followed the north to take charge of religious affairs, uh, most of the soldiers in Beiyang are Buddhists! In addition, representatives of Tibetan provinces and Outer Mongolia were also invited to participate in the National Political Consultative Conference, but I wonder if they will come. If the representative of the Tibetan Province came to participate, this young master Maggie could come in handy.

On the GCD side, Qu Ming, Qu Ying, and Soviet adviser Borodin accompanied the delegation to the north, and Borodin, whose mission in Guangzhou had been largely completed, and who would later serve as Feng Yuxiang's chief political adviser to help Feng organize and lead the coalition.
