readx; Time into August 10th, the war on the Chaohu front line into incandescent incandescent so that the already hot land in southern Anhui is full of a bit of hot feeling, everywhere is full of bullets across the sky to make a hissing sound, everywhere is full of deafening explosions when shells land, in this noise, countless people lost their lives!

With Chaohu and Hefei as the center, a large number of people abandoned their homes and businesses and fled from the spread of the war in all directions with the roar of artillery, and in July, the Nationalist Army made great efforts to keep the plan of crossing the river secret, and the days after crossing the river were also kept strictly secret, so as not to let the Beiyang Army find out the dynamics of the Nationalist Army. However www.biquge.info since the Nationalist Army launched the river-crossing operation on August 4, it has been nearly 10 days, and it is no secret that the Nationalist Army has launched a large-scale attack on Anhui and has taken the Wuhu direction as the main direction of attack.

The people in the area of the day before yesterday in China can naturally eat melon seeds, drink tea while reading the newspaper while laughing about the domestic situation, talking about whether Chen Jingyun, a rising star, is powerful, or Yuan Shikai, a deep-rooted Beiyang bigwig, is more powerful, but those people in Hefei and Chaohu and even Anhui and other parts of Jiangbei are worried about it, afraid that the confrontation between the two armies will affect their doorstep.

Neither the Beiyang Army nor the Nationalist Army are good birds, and they will not care about the so-called safety of ordinary people's lives and financial rights when they fight. At that time, during the war in southern Jiangsu, the Nationalist Army attacked Nanjing on a large scale, and when Cao Kun resisted stubbornly in Nanjing, the Nationalist Army carried out a large-scale artillery bombardment of Nanjing, causing countless casualties among the soldiers and civilians. Later, after the Nationalist Army captured Nanjing, Feng Guozhang of Jiangbei also carried out a large-scale artillery bombardment of Nanjing across the river with heavy artillery, causing certain losses to the Nationalist Army and also causing many casualties among the people.

Therefore, after the war in southern Jiangsu, a large number of people in Nanjing and Jiangbei fled their homes and went to Shanghai, Hangzhou and other people or went north, but these fleeers were mainly concentrated in the middle and upper classes, and there were not many ordinary people at the lower end of society.

After the Nationalist Army launched a large-scale river-crossing campaign this month, the refugee tide broke out again, especially as the main area of the war, Chaohu and the future Hefei area, some well-informed people in Chaohu had fled from Chaohu before the Nationalist Army officially attacked Chaohu, and later when the two divisions of the Nationalist Army officially attacked Chaohu, the ordinary people of Chaohu also fled, but this did not last long, and soon the side of Chaohu Lake was occupied by the Fifth Mixed Brigade of the National Army, and blocked the northern part of Chaohu Lake, Neither the Beiyang Army nor the general public could pass. \\\\

At this time, the Second Army strictly ordered the Ninth Division and the Eighth Division to accelerate the attack on Chaohu, and the generals of the troops on the front line did not care about the death and injury of ordinary people, and the artillery force of the two divisions carried out large-scale artillery bombardment on Chaohu, and when it was pushed to the Chaohu urban area, because Wang Chengbin withdrew the elite troops of the troops into the city, trying to carry out street battles and holding on, this way did cause certain losses to the National Army, but it also allowed the National Army to carry out large-scale artillery bombardment of the residential areas where the Beiyang Army was stationed in the city, and the military and civilians suffered countless casualties for a time.

Wang Chengbin's troops guarding Chaohu had only five or six thousand casualties by the 14th, but the number of ordinary people killed and wounded in the city under the exchange of fire between the two armies had already exceeded the number of casualties of the defenders.

The tragic situation in Chaohu Lake naturally made the ordinary people in other areas panic, and a large number of people began to flee their homes, and there were not a few examples of abandoning their wives and children along the way, and the few people who failed to leave or were reluctant to leave their homes could only tremble and hide, praying that the confrontation between the armies would not spread to their doorsteps.

Chen Jingyun looked at the report on refugees reported by the Ministry of Civil Affairs, frowned slightly and put it down! It is inevitable that the war will produce a large number of refugees, and it is inevitable that a large number of people will be killed and injured under artillery fire during the war.

Of course, what is more important is to publicize it well, and it is necessary to carry out news supervision, and those who should not report must not be reported, and the few who report must also point all these contradictions to the Beiyang Army, and never let the National Army take it upon itself!

Chen Jingyun gave a few simple comments on the report of the Ministry of Civil Affairs: "I have read it, and I will transfer it to the Ministry of Civil Affairs and the Ministry of Finance to deal with the aftermath of refugees!" ”

After putting down this matter, he was still a little uneasy, this kind of thing is not done well, it is easy to make the national army a public enemy of the whole people, this public opinion guidance work must not be relaxed, immediately he pondered the meeting and then said to the outside world: "Come on! ”

Immediately, an accompanying secretary walked into the outer room, this person is about forty years old, and he is a strange face in Chen Jingyun's eyes, but he was promoted from the second secretary of the first secretary Yan Jing Kuang yesterday, Yan Jing Kuang took over Cai Dan's position, after Cai Dan personally recommended his sister Cai Ning to Chen Jingyun a few days ago, although Cai Ning successfully entered the secretariat as a third secretary, but the next day Chen Jingyun found a reason to transfer Cai Dan away, and was directly transferred to Guangzhou to deal with the Guangzhou Economic Development Zone, but only gave the position of deputy head of development, which is degrading compared with Cai Dan's predecessor who directly served as the head of the development zone.

After Yan Jing Kuang walked in, he walked in front of Chen Jingyun with some restraint: "Handsome! ”

Chen Jingyun looked up, saw that he was a little restrained, and immediately said, "It's the first day to serve as my accompanying secretary, right?" Don't be too inhibited in front of me, just do your part! Don't say what you shouldn't say, don't ask what you shouldn't ask! ”

In view of Cai Dan's precedent, Chen Jingyun felt that it was necessary to knock on these accompanying secretaries, don't make any other messy things, Yan Jing Kuang immediately said after hearing this: "Don't worry, the boss will do his best to serve the marshal, and don't care about other things!" ”

Chen Jingyun nodded and said, "Well, go find Chen Cai, I have something to find him!" ”

When he said this, Chen Jingyun was silent for a while and then continued: "By the way, let him bring the person in charge of the propaganda department here too!" ”

In the national army system, the department responsible for news censorship and propaganda did not belong to the Government Affairs Yuan, but to the Propaganda Department under the Military Investigation Bureau, and the reason why it was divided into intelligence departments such as the Investigation Bureau was also a coincidence and the imperfect system of the National Army at that time.

At the beginning of last year, due to the need for public opinion control, Chen Jingyun ordered the Investigation Bureau to carry out public opinion control, including normal and abnormal means, the normal means were to buy newspapers, take the initiative to publicize news favorable to the Nationalist Army, and integrate the newspaper industry. Irregular means include the secret arrest of editors and reporters who oppose the Nationalist Army, and even assassinations and newspaper closures. After all kinds of means were put in place, the Investigation Bureau finally controlled the trend of public opinion in Fujian and Zhejiang, and held the public opinion guide in the two provinces, but it was beyond its power in the core areas ruled by the Nationalist Army, such as Shanghai and Guangzhou, and could only control it unilaterally, relying more on expanding the influence of newspapers in the Nationalist Army system to squeeze out the many newspapers in the concessions. In order to better carry out the work of guiding public opinion, the Investigation Bureau has set up a propaganda department, which is at the same level as several other departments of the Investigation Bureau, such as the one in charge of the defection of civilian officials of the National Army to the enemy and the first issue, such as the second department in charge of the defection of officers of the National Army to the enemy and the first issue, and the three departments that are specifically responsible for the hostile latent forces, and the rest are the four places responsible for public opinion guidance, that is, the propaganda office.

Chen Jingyun has always wanted to change but could not find the right time, and he also did not want to hand over such an important work of public opinion guidance to the ministries under the Government Council, and it was difficult for those officials to do a good job in the extremely challenging work of public opinion guidance. It is said that it is difficult not because of how difficult it is to do this work, but because ordinary people cannot do these things with a clear conscience, so the guidance of public opinion is not as simple as running a newspaper and scolding others with a pen.

But it is not suitable to keep it in the Investigation Bureau, the current power of the Investigation Bureau is big enough, whether it is the officials or those officers who see Chen Cai like seeing a vicious dog, and then let the power of the Investigation Bureau swell, maybe it will really make the Investigation Bureau the first power department in the national army system.

It didn't take long for Chen Cai to bring a person about thirty years old to Chen Jingyun, the director of the Propaganda Department Chen Jingyun had seen it twice, but he couldn't remember the name at once, what kind of role Chen Cai was, when he saw Chen Jingyun with such a look, he knew that the young master, who was busy with big things every day, had forgotten the name of his subordinate, and immediately said: "This is Zhao Biqiu, the director of the Investigation Bureau!" ”

Chen Jingyun said with a smile on his face at this time: "Oh, sit down!" ”

Chen Jingyun said so, Chen Cai and Zhao Biqiu naturally didn't want to violate anything, they did it after dipping a little on the sofa, and after the three of them sat down, the tea was also brought up, Chen Jingyun took a sip and moistened his throat before saying: "I called you here today, mainly to talk about the matter of this propaganda office!" ”
