mixed in the war

"Tuk, tuk, tuk..."

Jiang Jieshi tapped lightly on the coffee table with his fingers consciously. Beside him, Kong Xiangxi, Chen Guofu, Chen Lifu, and Qin Wei each occupied a seat. (Baidu&degree search 文#字头%发) In addition to the five of them, Song Ziwen, who came to attend the engagement banquet of his niece and daughter, was also present.On the contrary, Qin Wei thought that none of the generals in the army, such as He Yingqin and Bai Chongxi, whom Yu Youren said he could meet, appeared.Only after asking Kong Xiangxi did he know that He Yingqin and others were busy dealing with the end of the Battle of Changsha, so they did not arrive at the ceremony.However, even for the future generals in the army, these few people in the room are enough to judge the life and death of the Ma family in Qinghai.

"Ma's army is not so easy to move." After pondering for a long time, Chiang Kai-shek finally spoke, but the chairman obviously hesitated: "At that time, the central government sent Sun Dianying to Qinghai for reclamation. As a result, Sun Dianying led his troops to Ningxia. Ma Hongkui, Ma Hongbin, Ma Bufang, and Ma Buqing joined forces and refused, and the two sides fought a battle, and both sides suffered losses. But Sun Dianying was defeated in the end and was forced to withdraw from the Northwest. ... The Ma family is very strict with Qinghai, Gansu, and Ningxia."

"Moreover, when the Anti-Japanese War broke out the year before last, Ma Bufang and Ma Buqing sent troops to participate in the Anti-Japanese War. A total of more than 3 militiamen from the three counties of Datong, Huzhu, and Huangyuan were recruited to form a cavalry division and went to the battlefield. After that, the two sent another division. , and attacked again in the name of the second temporarily organized cavalry division. The Ma family army fought bravely on the battlefield and was good at cavalry. The feat of committing suicide by throwing himself into a river..." Chen Lifu also followed Chiang Kai-shek's words: "The Ma family army shed blood and sweat for the war of resistance, but at this time the central government attacked them. It is easy to be scolded as 'the relatives are hurt, the enemies are quick'."

"But Qinghai can't be controlled by Ma Bufang all the time?" Song Ziwen has been getting angry recently.Although he and Kong Xiangxi are relatives of Uncle Lang, the relationship between the two families has always been tense.In particular, the struggle between the two for the financial power of the national government began almost after Soong Meiling married Chiang Kai-shek.Originally, Song Ziwen took advantage of it.He became the Minister of Finance first, but within a few years, because he was disobedient, he was dismissed by Chiang Kai-shek and replaced by Kong Xiangxi.For the next ten years, although Song Ziwen has been the chairman of the central bank and has a lot of power to speak, his actual power is far inferior to that of Kong Xiangxi, especially after Kong Xiangxi became the chief executive.Even more so.Although Song Ziwen often asked people to help him make noises, it was still difficult to achieve any results.I thought that I might not have many chances to stand up again, but I didn't expect Qin Wei to suddenly join forces with many celebrities in the cultural world to open fire on Kong Xiangxi...for a while, Kong Xiangxi almost became a street rat.As for Chiang Kai-shek, after the initial breakthrough.He became a little hesitant, and finally he was extremely dissatisfied with Kong Xiangxi's corrupt behavior... Song Ziwen immediately seized the opportunity and made a lot of effort behind the scenes. As expected, Chiang Kai-shek finally made up his mind and did not want to use Kong Xiangxi. , and even asked Chen Bulei to publish an article in the newspaper.He planned to force Kong Xiangxi to resign.At the same time, Chiang Kai-shek appointed him as the vice chairman of the council of the "Four Union Headquarters". [

What is the "Quadruple Headquarters"?It is the joint headquarters of the four most important banks in China, the Central Bank, the Bank of China, the Bank of Communications, and the Farmer's Bank of China. It is responsible for handling various special businesses related to financial and economic policies during the Zheng Fu war.Chiang Kai-shek served as the chairman of the council and took charge of all affairs.Kong Xiangxi, Song Ziwen and Qian Yongming are the executive directors.The composition of the council includes the chairman of the military committee, the chief executive, the minister of finance, the minister of economy and the leaders of the four lines.In other words, the Silian Headquarters is the central financial decision-making body in wartime, overriding the four major banks, and can command and manipulate the four banks at will.In fact, it holds the financial power of the whole of China.

Song Ziwen was very happy at that time.In his opinion, as long as Kong Xiangxi resigns.It is a matter of course for me to become the executive dean.He also believes that with his ability, China's current economy that is riddled with holes will definitely be improved.Unexpectedly, day after day, and an unknown amount of time passed, Kong Xiangxi still refused to resign with a stubborn face.Not only that, but the relationship between his eldest brother-in-law and Chiang Kai-shek seemed to be recovering gradually, Lao Jiang didn't persecute Kong Xiangxi much, and Kong Xiangxi's precarious position seemed to be stable again.So, Uncle Guo, who had been waiting to take over as the executive dean, was dumbfounded, and almost ran to Chiang Kai-shek to question this brother-in-law, asking him why he was so inconsistent in doing things... But no matter how unhappy he was, Song Ziwen also had to accept the fact that Lao Jiang was wary of his habitual disobedience. He probably had no way to become the executive dean.

Therefore, Song Ziwen had no choice but to depress his thoughts and concentrate on running his Silian headquarters.Unexpectedly, he calmed down, and Kong Xiangxi began to churn again.Kong Xiangxi blocked almost all of the financial policies he and a group of experts worked out on the board of directors... As a result, the feud between the two became more and more serious, and they almost never saw each other , and as long as they meet, they will almost quarrel.If the eldest sister Song Ailing hadn't called to invite her personally, he might not have come to Kong Lingyi's engagement banquet this time.On the contrary, dissatisfied with Kong Xiangxi, he was also dissatisfied with Chiang Kai-shek who started to support the Kong family again.Especially dissatisfied with Chiang Kai-shek's hypocrisy of being a whore and wanting to build a memorial archway... He clearly wanted to swallow Qinghai, but he insisted on pretending that he couldn't bear to do it.Is it disgusting?If you really miss the past so much, Liu Xiang led his troops out of Sichuan and died in Hankou, why do you still want to bully his younger brother, and you don't even want to leave him a place to live?

"Mr. Song is right. Qinghai is China's territory, there is no reason why it has been controlled by one family..." Qin Wei was very satisfied with Song Ziwen's strength, "Besides, Ma Bufang didn't do many good things in Qinghai. He was in Qinghai Even if what he did did not reach the level of the wrath of man and god, it is about the same. This person is shameless, cruel and heartless, it can be said... he deserved to die a long time ago!"

"Officer Qin is a bit over the top." Chen Guofu is not only in charge of the KMT's Organization Department, but also the director of the third office of Lao Jiang's attendant, and the chairman of the Agricultural Bank of China. He glanced at Qin Wei, "Although Ma Bufang is evil He has done a lot, but he is an official of the Republic of China after all, especially the chairman of Qinghai Province. Even if we want to take him down, it shouldn't hurt his life."

"That is to say. Director Chen supports the removal of the 'Qingma' warlord's armed forces?" Qin Wei asked rhetorically.

"En." Chen Guofu didn't say much, but nodded seriously.

"Then it's three to two now!" Qin Wei pointed to Song Ziwen, Chen Guofu, and himself, then pointed to Chiang Kai-shek and Kong Xiangxi, and took a last look at Chen Lifu: "Minister Chen, what do you think?"

"I also think that the 'green horse' should not exist for a long time." Chen Lifu gave Qin Wei a white look.This guy will mess around.Did Chiang Kai-shek and Kong Xiangxi not want to cut down the feudal clan?With Lao Jiang's temperament, let alone a "green horse" that cannot be penetrated by water or pierced by needles, which province in the country does he not want to take back to the central government?It's just that he is a big boss, and his own position and considerations are different from theirs.

"Four to two!" Qin Wei was too lazy to care about Chen Lifu's thoughts.I don't even want to care what Chiang Kai-shek is thinking. Seeing that Chen Lifu has expressed his position, he immediately reported the "voting result": "Most people think that the green horse should be cut off. ... Chairman Chiang, it's up to you now It's gone."

"The Ma family has been operating in Qinghai for more than 40 years, with the four standards of 'Gan, He, Hui, and Ma' (Gansu, Hezhou, Hui, and Ma surname) as the employment standards. The father dies and the son succeeds, and the brother ends up with the younger brother. After decades of development, the inheritance of official positions and powers has already been deeply rooted in Qinghai. Even in normal times, it is not easy to drive them out of Qinghai, not to mention that now we have to face the threat of r himself..." Qin Wei His behavior was a little bit "force the palace", but Chiang Kai-shek didn't mind that much... Everyone knew that since he became the leader of the government, he wanted to cut down the feudal clan, not only the government.They also want to cut down the Kuomintang in various places... Although the Ma family in Qinghai is not as threatening as Feng Yuxiang, Li Zongren, Yan Xishan and others before, but so far, Chiang Kai-shek has cut almost everything that Chiang Kai-shek can cut. Only the few "horses" in the northwest are the most powerful. If you don't cut them, who will you cut? But the problem is that Ma Bufang is in Qinghai!

"If it was so easy to deal with, Qingzang would not have been separated from the Central Plains regime for thousands of years." Kong Xiangxi sighed, "Chief Qin, it's easy for you to say that, and everyone is willing to take down this 'green horse' .But have you thought about the difficulties involved?"

"The Battle of Changsha has basically ended, and R himself still has to 'serve' the Soviets. It is unlikely that he will launch any military operations in the short term... Everyone should agree with this?" Qin Wei looked at the crowd and asked.

"Agreed." Chen Guofu nodded.This is something everyone knows. In fact, Japan is not rich. Several wars have been fought in succession, and the Far East has to deal with the Soviet Union, which must have cost a lot.What's more, after the battles in Nanchang, Guangnan, and Changsha, R himself directly lost five to six divisions, about 10 troops, and all of them were the main force in the field and veterans.This kind of loss can be described as traumatic. If it weren't for the cover-up of the series of victories of the Soviet Union in the Far East, there might be another turmoil in R's country.But even so, r himself was having a hard time.Therefore, the Military Commission estimates that it will take at least half a year to a year for R himself to recover from this.

"But the problem is, even if R himself can't attack us, we probably won't be able to counterattack R himself... Our loss is also huge. At this moment, what can we do to deal with the 'green horse'?" Chen Lifu suddenly asked again road.

"My envisioned plan is...paratroopers!" Qin Wei said.

"Paratroopers?" Lao Jiang was taken aback, "Haven't they not finished their training yet?"

"If you really want to use Ma Bufang, the preparation work will take at least a few months, and with the early training, it should be able to use so-so." Qin Wei smacked his lips: "My plan is to use the parachute army as the assault force. Set off from qng, pass through Xi'an and Lanzhou, and raid Xining, first take down Ma Bufang himself."

"And then?" Everyone's eyes lit up.Everyone here knows how powerful the paratroopers are.Most of Ma Bufang's troops are defending at the junction with Gansu and other provinces, and there are not many troops left in Xining. If the paratroopers make a surprise attack, it is very likely that they will succeed in one blow.And as long as Ma Bufang is captured, the leader of the Ma family army, the chances of winning will be great. [

"Then? No then!" Qin Wei said: "We should have encouraged those people in Sichuan to take action before. Aren't Pan Wenhua, Liu Wenhui, and Deng Xihou always dissatisfied with Zhong yng's involvement in Sichuan? If you are dissatisfied, then don't Sichuan is stuck, let them go to Qinghai...they will be sent there in the name of 'changing defense'. At the same time, we must mobilize Zhu Shaoliang from Gansu and Ma Hongkui from Ningxia to put pressure on Qinghai...In this way, even if our paratroopers win Without Ma Bufang, the Ma family's army might not dare to return to Xining easily to 'rescue him'."

"Good idea." Song Ziwen thought for a while, "Exchanging Qinghai for Sichuan, and using the name of Zhong Yng's 'righteousness'... not only the reputation is much better, but it can also appease Pan Wenhua's gang, which is very important for Zhong Yng to take over Sichuan. favorable."

"That's good, but the problem is that this is taken for granted. What if Pan Wenhua and the others disagree? Can Qinghai and Sichuan be compared?" Kong Xiangxi said: "Although the 'Northwest Qunma' has occasional internal struggles, it still encounters foreign enemies. Just like in the battle of "Four Horses Rejecting Grandchildren", Ningma, Ganma, and Qingma united together... Who can guarantee that when we move Ma Bufang this time, the other "horses" 'Will you watch the show safely, and even stand on our side?"
