mixed in the war

Chapter 240 Plotting against Sun Liren

Zheng Jiemin has always wanted to lead troops.

Dream about it.

In fact, he is not very interested in the position of chief secretary of the military command bureau. The reason why he has been working hard to maintain the position of secretary general of the military command bureau is mainly because he has a "good wife" at home.His wife Ke Shufang was reluctant.The military command has a lot of money and things, so it can be supplied in a steady stream; not only the car and gasoline that Zheng Jiemin takes are supplied by the military command bureau, but also the adjutants, male and female servants, cooks, etc. used by the military command bureau are paid by the military command bureau, and many expenses and entertainments at home are also paid by the military command bureau. All other expenses are covered by the military commander.The public agencies controlled by the military reunification, such as the anti-smuggling agency, freight bureau, traffic inspection office, etc., always have Zheng Jiemin's share when they "tribute" to the military reunification secret agents.For these reasons, Ke Shufang went to the headquarters of the Military Command in Hunan Guild Hall more times than Zheng Jiemin himself.Because of this, Mao Renfeng once caught the "handle", so the two had a famous conflict. The final result was that Zheng Jiemin suppressed Mao Renfeng while Mao Renfeng was recovering from his injuries. group

But Zheng Jiemin, who was suppressed and returned, was mainly out of resentment that Mao Renfeng counted him behind his back, and he still wanted to lead the army.

Not long after the start of the War of Resistance, Chiang Kai-shek asked Britain for help in setting up a shock force.When Zheng Jiemin got the news at that time, he immediately made a request to Chiang Kai-shek, hoping to send him to take on this task.It's a pity that Lao Jiang thought that he had no experience in leading troops in war and was not suitable for this kind of work, so he sent Li Mo'an to prepare for the establishment of an assault force equipped with British equipment, which disappointed Zheng Jiemin. [

Later, the General Staff Headquarters was reorganized into the Military Command Department, and Zheng Jiemin was accidentally promoted by Chiang Kai-shek to be the Deputy Director of the Second Department of the Ministry.Although this made him feel at ease, he still did not forget his work of leading troops.When the Army University set up a training class for senior officers to train middle and senior officers of the Kuomintang, Zheng Jiemin asked to take his post for training.At that time someone asked him, you are now a major general.Why do you want to go?He said happily: "The current military agencies and the chief of staff of the army require graduates from the University of Mainland China. If they are not, not only will they not have the opportunity to lead troops, they will not understand business and cannot work. The relationship between classmates is not easy to control, so we have to go."

After that, Zheng Jiemin actually entered the mainland.This is also the reason why he rarely met Qin Wei during this time... The Army University is located in Zunyi, Guizhou.He can't run at both ends.And Qin Wei stayed in the Bai mansion all the time, so he entrusted Ke Erli with his business affairs, especially the business in Myanmar.This is a kind of trust, but it is also a kind of self-confidence of Zheng Jiemin... He believes that he can control Ke Erli.But think of Curley as a little consul.Moreover, he was dismissed. For a director of the military command, it is really not difficult to deal with, even if the other party is British.

Zheng Jiemin studied very hard at the mainland.The senior military officers who were trained at the same time as him were on-the-job learning, and even the drawing of maps had to be done by the staff. I often went to Chongqing and Guiyang to have fun.Even in Zunyi, these people are enjoying their lives and drinking.Sometimes gambling all night long, listening to lectures in class is just perfunctory, anyway, to mix up a degree.Zheng Jiemin is completely different from these people, he studies very seriously.I also write in my free time.He occasionally went back to Chongqing for a few days, and he also went to the Military Command Bureau and the Second Office to ask for some materials for his writing reference.For this matter, Ke Shufang brought Yu Lingling to find Qin Wei.Ask Qin Wei to help her persuade Zheng Jiemin to go home often... Qin Wei naturally knew what Ke Shufang was up to, so he agreed on the surface.Actually didn't speak.Later, after inquiring carefully, I found out that Ke Shufang often wrote to Zheng Jiemin, scolding Zheng Jiemin for not wanting to miss home, while others often came back, but he didn't want his wife.She even suspected what kind of tricks Zheng Jiemin was playing in Zunyi. For this reason, the woman secretly went to Zunyi twice to check the post.In the end, seeing that Zheng Jiemin was indeed immersed in his study and writing, he was relieved.

From this, Qin Wei could see that Zheng Jiemin really wanted to lead the army.He even saw that this guy regretted that he had never led troops to fight, and that his "wu" smell was not good enough, but at the same time he was obsessed with wanting to be a "Confucian general", and he had a kind of thinking that "warriors are afraid that they can't write".And Zheng Jiemin collected materials from the archives of the Military Command and the Second Department from time to time, and put on an appearance of intending to write military books, which let Qin Wei know that this guy has great ambitions in using troops.

……

"Can you let me lead the army?"

Sure enough, Qin Wei's words touched Zheng Jiemin's itching spot... He has become a general, but he hasn't even led half a company's troops.It's a joke to say it.

"You know the Tax Police Headquarters?" Qin Wei asked again.

"Of course I know." Zheng Jiemin lifted his spirits.He thought that when Qin Wei asked him to lead the army, he would just intercede with Lao Jiang and give him an ordinary number at most, but he never thought that what Qin Wei was talking about was the Tax Police Corps... that was a team A terrific elite teacher.It was a private armed force established by Song Ziwen in 1932 when he was Minister of Finance.As the name suggests, it should be an irregular force for anti-smuggling and tax collection.Originally, other people, including Lao Jiang, didn't pay attention to such a force. How much combat power can it have?But they all forgot who the backstage boss of this army was.

Song Ziwen didn't intend to make the armed forces in his hands unnecessary. He not only wanted to use this army to guarantee the collection of salt taxes, but also to fight for military capital.Therefore, they are extremely generous in spending money, and they are also very selective in employing people.Among them, all the senior military officers were recruited and selected by him personally.Wen Yingxing, the first and fourth head of the regiment, and Wang Geng, the second head of the regiment, are both graduates of the United States Military Academy at West Point.Mo Xiong, the third head of the regiment, was a brave general in Zhang Fakui's Fourth Army during the Northern Expedition.Sun Liren and Zhao Junmai were also recruited as team leaders.Song Ziwen's brother-in-law Zhang Yuannan, who graduated from the Japanese Non-commissioned Officer Academy, also went to his brother-in-law Moxia to serve as the head of the regiment.Most of the officers above the platoon are served by students studying in the United States.There is also an advisory group composed of eight Nazi German officials.

The Tax Police Headquarters is supported by the remaining salt tax that is amortized every year for loans from the Group of Eight Banks.All the establishment, equipment, and personnel are based on Song Ziwen's wishes, and others have the right to intervene.Chiang Kai-shek thought it was just a small and important army, so he didn't care.Although Jiang's secret service agencies were powerful, neither Chen Lifu, Chen Guofu, nor Dai Li dared to break ground on Tai Sui, because if they did not do so, they would burn themselves.after all.Everyone knows that Chiang Kai-shek's marriage was a political marriage, and the Chiang family wanted to use the Song family to connect with the United States.However, Song Ziwen has never bought Lao Jiang's account, and when the two disagree, Song Ziwen can do nothing but flip the table in front of Lao Jiang.In this way, Song Ziwen took the opportunity to turn the insignificant Tax Police Corps into a powerful armed force.

The Tax Police Headquarters is an armed force that does not belong to the official order of the country. Its weapons and equipment are all purchased by Song Ziwen's Ministry of Finance. The level of sophistication is not comparable to that of ordinary troops.Learn from the strengths of European and American military powers.It began to mainly purchase American weapons, equipped with Orligen anti-aircraft cannons and Vickers amphibious vehicles. The rifles were mainly German-made 1924 standard "Mauser" series guns or Belgian fn192430 rifles.Water-cooled heavy machine gun.The pistol is naturally the well-known 763mm Mauser m1932, and it is even equipped with the "Carden Lloyd" ultralight tank.

It can be said that through the determined rectification of Song Ziwen and his generals, the Tax Police Headquarters has become an absolute "irregular army" elite force, a rare force.

And it turns out.The Tax Police Headquarters is not just good looking. On the eve of the "January [-]th" Incident, most of the tax police headquarters were stationed in Shanghai and Pudong. He issued a combat order and inflicted great damage on the Japanese army.

Afterwards, the "January 30th" incident was resolved with concessions from the Chinese side.But at this time Song Ziwen had already deeply realized the serious threat from Japan.He disregarded Chiang Kai-shek's "to fight against the outside world, we must first settle down at home".Demanding resistance to Japan and saving the nation, he flew to Beiping several times for talks with Zhang Xueliang and Tang Yulin, and vigorously publicized Japan's crimes of aggression internationally.In order to deal with unexpected events in North China, he even secretly negotiated with Qian Zongze, director of the Longhai Railway Bureau.More than 1934 trains were prepared, concentrated in Haizhou, and all the Tax Police Headquarters were transported to Zhengzhou at once, ready to go to Peiping.As a result, this matter was discovered by Liu Zhi, the "chairman" of Henan Province.Call Chiang Kai-shek.Chiang Kai-shek was furious and said that he asked the Tax Police Headquarters to return to the original defense area.Otherwise disarm.Wen Yingxing, who was then head of the tax police, did not dare to disobey and led his troops back.Song Ziwen's series of activities and attitudes, coupled with his refusal to increase military spending for Chiang Kai-shek's suppression of the Communist Party, affected Chiang Kai-shek's strategic deployment.Jiang was very annoyed and "forced" Song to resign as Minister of Finance and "go abroad for inspection".In the same way, Lao Jiang has always been unable to tolerate the existence of a powerful army that is not directly related, so in [-], he ordered Huang Jie, the commander of the Second Division stationed in Xuzhou at that time, to take over as the head of the Tax Police Headquarters.The army that Song Ziwen worked so hard for was easily annexed by Chiang Kai-shek.

Later, the Tax Police Headquarters and another unit were combined into the Eighth Army. Huang Jie served as the commander of the army and participated in the Battle of Songhu. He fought fiercely with the enemy for 66 days and suffered heavy casualties.But after the war, Huang Jie was recruited by Gu Zhutong, the commander-in-chief of the third war zone, and organized the rest of the post-war Tax Police Headquarters into the [-]th Division, but ignored the other [-] wounded.As a result, Sun Liren, the former head of the Tax Police Headquarters, reorganized the "Anti-smuggling Corps" on the basis of these [-] wounded soldiers, recruited the old and soon led his troops to participate in the Battle of Wuhan... After the national government moved its capital to Chongqing, the Ministry of Finance The Tax Police Headquarters was reorganized, and Sun Liren was promoted to Major General Head of the Headquarters, and his troops moved to Duyun, Guizhou for military training.

"Song Ziwen is not yet the chief executive officer, but he has regained control of the financial power. Most importantly, he attaches great importance to this tax police headquarters... So, I plan to suggest to Chairman Jiang that we should expand this army. And incorporate it into the system of the National Revolutionary Army." Looking at the eager Zheng Jiemin, Qin Wei said slowly again.

"That Song..."

"Anti-Japanese War, he can't say anything." Qin Wei smiled, "Besides, the expansion of the Tax Police Headquarters is also good for him... That Sun Liren is his man. Being a head of the head, how can you be an army commander? Cozy?" [

"You want to expand the Tax Police Headquarters into an army?" Zheng Jiemin couldn't help shouting.

"The Tax Police Headquarters initially had more than [-] troops, which is almost an army." Qin Weidao: "Song Ziwen's money is not easy to get, and he must have people he trusts. Therefore, once an army is formed, Sun Liren This army commander can't escape. But with Generalissimo Jiang's "disposition", at least a few people should be arranged to be division commanders... I miss you!"

"I do!"

Zheng Jiemin jumped up directly.

"You happen to be attending class in Guizhou, so you should find opportunities to run around more evenly, get in touch with Sun Liren, and exchange ideas at the same time... After all, you have never led a soldier before."

"Yes!"

"Very good... get ready to be a teacher."
