Spy War 1929

Chapter 319 He Is Worthy of Your Friendship

(I just came home from outside, and it was a bit late when I got home, which caused the update to be a little late. This is a rush work, forgive me)
Whampoa Military Academy, anyone who has studied for a few years, understands some principles, and has some knowledge, should not know the name.

Of course, here we are talking about future generations.

In that age of the internet and the information explosion, most of the Chinese, except the older generation who have never studied and the younger generation who have not yet grown up, should know the name Whampoa Military Academy. .

Chen Ledao is no exception.

In that era of information explosion, what people saw and heard in a month may exceed what people saw and heard in a lifetime in this era.

But there is one thing that cannot be avoided.

Knowing more does not mean knowing deeply.

Many things, most people have only heard about it, and probably know that there is such a thing.

For example, for the Whampoa Military Academy, many people know the name, but it may be difficult for most people to really let them say something about the Whampoa Military Academy.

Even the most superficial ones may just know such a name and know that this thing exists, and they may not even be able to tell whether it is a military academy of the Republic of China or a contemporary military academy.

Of course, such people should be relatively rare.

After all, the title of Principal Chang is still deeply rooted in the hearts of the people through the Internet and various film and television works in later generations.

But if you know a little bit more, you will know that Principal Chang is the principal of the Whampoa Military Academy.

Those who are a little bit more interested in history may also know that the people's most beloved prime minister was once the director of the political department of the Whampoa Military Academy.

The director of the political department, perhaps equivalent to the director of the academic affairs office in an ordinary university, is very important.

People who don't know much may label the Whampoa Military Academy as the National Party and label it as a villain.But of course this is not true.

Needless to say more specifics, this simple truth, if you say too much, you will be scolded for mixing it up.

Chen Ledao didn't know much about the Whampoa Military Academy, nor did he know anything about it. Anyway, he knew more or less.

Although he has been urging Xu Wenqiang to go to the military academy, he is only a half-assed person. For details, he has to ask Zhou Wen's father, Mr. Zhou.

In broad daylight, after confirming that Zhou Jixian was at home today, Chen Ledao, Xu Wenqiang, Zhou Wen and Liu Zhihui arrived at Zhou Jixian.
Mansion.

Looking at this kind and imposing old man in front of him - let's call it an old man, in fact, Chen Ledao didn't even see a few white hairs on his head - Chen Ledao felt that Mr. Zhou should be better than he imagined.

Both Chen Ledao and Xu Wenqiang came to Zhou's house for the first time, Chen Ledao seemed more casual, while Xu Wenqiang was more serious.

Zhou Jixian was a person who worked with Mr. Zhongshan in the early years. Although he is not working in the national government now, he still has a lot of connections in the national party.

Xu Wenqiang is a person who is determined to do something practical and make his own contribution to this country and this society. The old man Zhou in front of him is exactly the kind of person he wants to be.

Therefore, since Xu Wenqiang stepped into Zhou's house, he has become quite solemn, whether he walks or speaks, he strives to be decent.

His appearance in Zhou's house is quite different from Qing's appearance in Feng's house.

To Mr. Zhou, Xu Wenqiang respected him from the bottom of his heart. As for Mr. Feng, Xu Wenqiang's mentality was more like a person under the eaves, who had to bow his head.

Zhou Jixian sat in the main seat, Chen Ledao and Xu Wenqiang sat in the guest seats, as for Zhou Wen and Liu Zhihui, one was lying on the back of the sofa, and the other was standing obediently.

"Mr. Zhou, Ah Wen should have already mentioned to you the purpose of our visit today." Chen Ledao tried to be polite.

Zhou Jixian was still sizing up the two of them, especially Chen Ledao, who observed them carefully, and even seemed to have a little surprise in his eyes.

He had long heard that Chief Inspector Chen was very young, but seeing him today, the young man was beyond his imagination.

Just looking at his appearance, this man is about the same age as his own son Zhou Wen, but he has a more calm temperament, not as frizzy as Zhou Wen.

Mr. Zhou's eyes paused on Xu Wenqiang for a while, and he nodded slightly.

He knew about Chen Ledao, but it was the first time he had heard of the protagonist next to Chen Ledao who came to the door today.

It looks like a young talent.

"Mr. Chen and Mr. Xu's intentions, Ah Wen has already told me. Don't worry, you two, the letter of recommendation is just a matter of raising your hands. Recommending talents for the country is exactly what we should do, and there is absolutely no reason to shirk it." Zhou The old man said with a light smile.

To Chen Ledao and Xu Wenqiang, Mr. Zhou is not as serious as he is to his three sons, but gives people a sense of spring breeze.

Although Mr. Zhou was also a revolutionary in his early years, he contributed more to the economy. In the final analysis, he was more a businessman than a politician.

Otherwise, the Zhou family's huge property came a little bit wrong.

As expected of a senior!

Listening to Mr. Zhou's words, Chen Ledao sighed in his heart.

Chen Ledao felt that he was absolutely inferior to Mr. Zhou's awareness.

Chen Ledao felt that he, a latecomer, might not be able to learn the consciousness of these elders for the country and the people, even if he studied for a lifetime.

Moreover, Mr. Zhou's gentle attitude made Chen Ledao feel a little relieved.

The old man Zhou he learned from Zhou Wen before was a serious and serious image.

Under the preconceived situation, he imagined Mr. Zhou as a stubborn old man.And what he is most afraid of is dealing with such people.

Now it seems that he is thinking too much.

It's true to think about it. People who can say "When the Japanese pirates are gone, when my son returns home" may be serious, but how can they be stubborn and old-fashioned.

"Mr. Xu wants to go to the military academy, I will help him. There is just one thing that needs to be informed first.

"Regarding the identity of Mr. Xu, we have to make some changes.

"One is because Mr. Xu has been in prison, which does not comply with the military academy admissions regulations, and the other is that Mr. Xu's age has exceeded the stipulated age for military academies to enroll students.

"But these problems are not big. Some people in the military academy are my old friends, and they will still help with this."

Chen Ledao didn't know that the Whampoa Military Academy still had these restrictions on recruiting students, but after thinking about it carefully, he felt that this was the right thing to do.After all, this is the highest military academy in the country. Once you graduate, you will go directly to the army as an officer.

If there are no rules and it looks like a grass-roots team, then something is wrong.

Xu Wenqiang repeatedly expressed his gratitude to Mr. Zhou. It was Chen Ledao who persuaded him to go to the military academy. He also had no eyes for the specific conditions for recruiting students to the military academy.

Thanks to the two, Zhou Jixian waved his hand to say no.

To him, this was really not a big deal.That's all he can do, that's all.

Now he has no official position. Although he is a veteran of the Kuomintang party, in fact, if it is really a big deal, he can't get involved.

Fist and patriotism can only be reflected in these small things now.

Xu Wenqiang looked good, sent him to the military academy to hone his skills, and taught him talents, which can be regarded as his contribution to the country.

During the conversation with Zhou Jixian, Chen Ledao also learned more about the military academy.

To be precise, the place Xu Wenqiang was going to was called the Central Army Military Academy, but it was still called the Whampoa Military Academy by habit, and it was also called the Nanjing Main School.

This military academy was established in 1927. It used to have a two-year schooling system, but just this year, it has been announced that it will be changed to a three-year schooling system, and it adopts German-style education.

This is the reason why Zhou Wen will be able to study in Germany in the future and receive early special military education.

The military academy's enrollment for this year has already started. Xu Wenqiang wants to go now, but it's actually a little late. But since Zhou Jixian agreed to help, it's nothing.

After discussing Xu Wenqiang's going to the military academy, Zhou Jixian discussed many things with Chen Ledao.

During the chat, Chen Ledao faintly felt that Mr. Zhou seemed to be quite interested in him.

At first, Chen Ledao was a little strange, thinking that Mr. Zhou had some thoughts about him, or that the National Party had some thoughts about him, and he only contacted him through Mr. Zhou.

It wasn't enough that when he talked about "Chinese Heart" and his views on Japan later, Chen Ledao realized that he was a bit self-indulgent.

This week, the old man appreciates himself purely because of the song he made and the reputation he has gained over the past year.

What he did in the French Concession, especially what he did to the Japanese, although it was full of evil to the Japanese, but in the eyes of an old man like Zhou Jixian, it was a happy thing.

Although Zhou Jixian is a veteran of the Kuomintang, he has to be careful when dealing with foreigners.

He is also unhappy when he sees foreigners.

Those European and American foreigners, although they are also not good, but they are somewhat concealed when they do things, while the Japanese are really shameless through and through.

People like Zhou Jixian have long been dissatisfied with it, but they can't do something boldly. They need to take the overall situation into consideration.

However, Chen Ledao is a different kind.

He beat and scolded those Japanese at every turn, and even shot blood, and he didn't get used to those people at all.

After doing these things, he didn't have any trouble at all.

The things that Zhou Jixian knew were of course not comparable to those ordinary people outside. Although he was not very clear about some things, he had heard about them.

I heard from some people that this young guy, Chen Ledao, is a ruthless person, far more than what is rumored outside.

Those newspapers reported that Chen Ledao was not afraid of the Japanese, and dared to stand up for ordinary people. The Japanese in the French Concession, that is, under Chen Ledao's subordinates, must be punished for breaking the law.

But what he heard was that many Japanese had already died at the hands of Chen Ledao.

There is reliable news that the Japanese have long regarded Chen Ledao as a thorn in their side, wishing to kill him quickly.

The Japanese consulate has repeatedly protested to the consulates in the French Concession, demanding that they hand over Chen Ledao and punish him severely.

It's just that those French people didn't know why, they changed their usual attitude towards anything involving Chen Ledao, and they didn't give the Japanese any face at all, and defended Chen Ledao to death.

And those Japanese couldn't produce conclusive evidence that Chen Ledao killed the Japanese. The only conclusive evidence for Murata Makoto's death was also because Murata Makoto blatantly attacked the police in the police building. Chen Ledao shot and killed Murata Makoto first. It is a reasonable and legal behavior, and the Japanese do not take it for granted and cannot be held accountable.

Although those Japanese are not reasonable things at all, they still dare not turn their faces openly in the face of Western powers, especially old powers like France.

So much so that the Japanese obviously wanted to poke Chen Ledao into ashes, but they had nothing to do with Chen Ledao.

Even Zhou Jixian heard that at the earliest time, the Japanese had protested to the national government.

As a result, it was later learned that Chen Ledao was not Chinese at all, and that he was not under the control of the national government, which caused a big oolong.Then the French didn't give them face. In the end, the Japanese really couldn't make a fuss, so the matter was left alone.

And since then, Chen Ledao has gained a huge notoriety among the Japanese, and I even heard that the Japanese consulate secretly warned those Japanese not to wander around in the French Concession if there is nothing to do, and to walk around Chen Ledao.

No way, the Japanese are not afraid of the French, it's all because the Japanese have bigger plans, and they shouldn't offend the French in a short time.

Under such a big background, to Chen Ledao, they can only treat him as a clown, bear with it for a while, and wait until they don't have to bear it anymore, they are liquidating with him.

But these are beyond what Zhou Jixian can know.

Zhou Jixian didn't care about anything else, he just admired Chen Ledao's cruelty to the Japanese and his protection of the Chinese.

This shows that the song "Chinese Heart" sung by Chen Ledao was not a show, but his real thoughts.

This is really rare for someone who grew up overseas.

In addition, Chen Ledao's performance over the past year has indeed proved that he is a talent, and Chen Ledao has a very good relationship with his two sons, which makes Zhou Jixian have a better impression of Chen Ledao.

A young man who is destined to become a big boss in Shanghai, and he is also the kind of young man he admires, it is really hard for Zhou Jixian not to have a good impression of Chen Ledao.

Chen Ledao and Xu Wenqiang stayed at Zhou's house for a long time. They didn't leave the Zhou mansion until Liu Yuan came back at night and had a family dinner with Zhou's family.

Zhou Wen and Liu Zhihui sent them out of the villa, Zhou Jixian and Liu Yuan sat in the living room, and there was a red invitation card on the table in front of Zhou Jixian.

Liu Yuan was sitting upright, not paying attention to the invitation. When he was thinking about asking his father about Chen Ledao, Zhou Jixian looked at the invitation and said suddenly:

"Ayuan, you work in the police station, and Chen Ledao works in the police station. Although the names of the two are different, they are both the same in nature.

"Your job in the police station is not as good as Chen Ledao's. I think you can talk to him and get along with him like Ah Wen and Zhihui.

"Chen Ledao is now in perfect harmony with the French, and he is about to marry Feng Jingyao's daughter. In time, I'm afraid that in Shanghai, there will be someone who is more powerful than Feng Jingyao. Getting to know him will be beneficial to you in the future !"

When Liu Yuan heard this all of a sudden, he was a little stunned.

Liu Yuan knew that his father didn't like Feng Jingyao very much.

Chen Ledao is going to marry Feng Jingyao's daughter, shouldn't his father hate Wu and Wucai?

Why do you think so highly of him?
Of course Zhou Jixian didn't like Feng Jingyao.

Although Feng Jingyao is whitewashing himself now, for people like Zhou Jixian, a gangster is a gangster, and he will never be whitewashed.

People like Feng Jingyao and Zhou Jixian are totally different.

It's just that although Zhou Jixian doesn't like Feng Jingyao, he also has an objective understanding of the forces under Feng Jingyao.

Feng Jingyao is a character, and Zhou Jixian has to admit this.

Thinking of Chen Ledao's invitation just now and the invitation card on the table, Zhou Jixian couldn't help but shook his head and heaved a sigh of relief.

If someone like Chen Ledao can take over Feng Jingyao's power, it may be a good thing for Shanghai Tang.

At least one can believe that Chen Ledao will not do all kinds of bad things like Feng Jingyao, and even hook up with the Japanese.
