Blood-quenched mountains and rivers

Preparations for the Third National Congress of the Kuomintang were in full swing, but at this moment, an important person was absent, and this person was Li Jishen.

Li Jishen originally planned to attend this important meeting and brought many representatives from Guangzhou, but the problem was that Li Jishen went to Shanghai on his way to Nanjing to visit Li Zongren who was living here.

The previous friendship between Li Zongren and Li Jishen cannot be described in one or two sentences, but sometimes it can be accurately summarized in one or two sentences, for example, the first sentence Li Zongren said to Li Jishen when they met in Shanghai.

"Never go to Nanjing."

When he said this, Li Zongren's expression was very solemn, and a touch of sadness and a little bit of grief and anger could be seen in his eyebrows and eyes.Blood quenching mountains and rivers 218

Nanjing is where the National Government is located, and as the commander of the Fourth Army of the National Revolutionary Army, Li Jishen was a little hard to understand Li Zongren's advice for a while, but he saw that Li Zongren said earnestly: "When you go to Nanjing, you will I can't come back."

Li Ji looked at Li Zongren in amazement, and asked suspiciously, "Why?"

It was early spring, and Li Zongren, who lived in the south for a long time, was still not used to the bitterly cold weather in Shanghai. He said solemnly with a gloomy face: "In the eyes of many people in the party, you have an inseparable relationship with the Guangxi faction, and you have long been trying to seize If you are the leader of the Cantonese army, if you go to Nanjing at this time, I am afraid you will never return!"

Li Jishen gasped suddenly. Although he had a close relationship with the Guangxi faction, after Li Zongren fell, there would inevitably be gossip about him in the party. As Li Zongren said it was so serious, cold sweat suddenly broke out, and he nodded hurriedly without saying a word: "Exactly, exactly, thank you for reminding me!"

Li Zongren waved his hands with a wry smile, and said disapprovingly: "Nowadays, the situation in the party is complicated, and Chiang Kai-shek has begun to play cards unreasonably."

Speaking of this, Li Jishen couldn't help but confide in his recent doubts: "Indeed, Principal Jiang seems to be acting differently than usual. Could it be that someone is behind the scenes to give advice?"

"Advice?" Li Zongren cursed angrily. As soon as Chiang Kai-shek's recent schemes were mentioned, Li Zongren felt angry. If it wasn't for Chiang Kai-shek's recent dangerous moves, he would not have fallen to such a situation. He was angry at the moment regardless of his image. Then he cursed loudly: "Is this a point? It's basically a trick behind the scenes to hurt the idea! I don't know what kind of wicked thing it is. It's not enough to calm the anger in my heart!"

Looking at Li Zongren's indignant appearance, Li Ji squinted his eyes and pondered for a long time, then whispered cautiously: "If I remember correctly, it seems that after Chief of Staff Yang Yongtai Yang entered the headquarters, these changes occurred. It should be this person who made trouble."

He cursed, but Li Zongren still thought for a moment very calmly before shaking his head and said: "I don't think so, Yang Yongtai is just a penman who clings to power and has a long sleeve and is good at dancing. If he really talked about tricks, he still can't think of such a trick." So many dirty tricks!"

In short, no matter who this person is, it is certain that someone must be planning behind Chiang Kai-shek. After carefully studying Chiang Kai-shek's tactics against Li Zongren and Bai Chongxi, Li Jishen always felt that danger was coming. It is not much better than Li Zongren and Bai Chongxi.

After receiving Li Zongren's advice, the cautious Li Jishen found an excuse and declined the meeting without saying a word.

At the beginning, although Chiang Kai-shek was worried about the relationship between Li Jishen and Li Zongren, he was not in a hurry to deal with it because Li Jishen did not express his opinion. However, he did not expect that the matter was exactly as Yang Wei predicted. The meeting, which made Chiang Kai-shek's mind clouded with doubts, it is not difficult to assert that there is definitely something tricky in the matter.

Li Jishen refused to attend the meeting because he was worried that Chiang Kai-shek would harbor evil intentions, but Chiang Kai-shek really decided to attack Li Jishen because Li Jishen returned home suddenly, and any outsider could see that Li Jishen had other plans. At this time, Chiang Kai-shek could no longer sit still , immediately decided to send people to Shanghai.

Yang Wei, who had succeeded several times before, became the first choice for Chiang Kai-shek's deployment. Chiang Kai-shek specially summoned Yang Wei, patted him on the shoulder very seriously and said: "If Li Jishen is left to his own devices now, it is tantamount to letting the tiger go back to the mountain, and he is in The sudden pause in Shanghai was most likely instigated by Li Zongren, and the cohesion of forces in Huguang would not be a good thing for the party-state."

Yang Wei naturally understood what Chiang Kai-shek meant, and what Chiang Kai-shek meant was that no matter what strategy he used, conspiracy and conspiracy were not the point, as long as he could bring Li Jishen to Nanjing.

It's just that the more Chiang Kai-shek attaches importance to this matter, the more thorny this matter will be. Yang Wei rarely showed embarrassment and said: "I understand what the principal means, but this matter, I'm afraid I can't do it under my position." finished."

In Chiang Kai-shek's eyes, Yang Wei is omnipotent on his own. At the beginning, many tasks that he never thought he could complete independently were successfully completed, but he didn't expect that there would be things that this person could not do.

Looking at Chiang Kai-shek's incomprehensible eyes, Yang Wei explained the reason: "Principal, just imagine that Commander Li is also a veteran figure in the army. It may seem disingenuous to invite Commander Li to come out of the mountain with his seniority."

Chiang Kai-shek slapped his forehead, and then suddenly realized that what Yang Wei said was true, but he seemed to have not thought carefully. Now Li Jishen has already become suspicious. If he does not show enough sincerity, I am afraid it will be difficult to invite Li Jishen to Nanjing. Come.Blood quenching mountains and rivers 218

For the current Chiang Kai-shek, as long as he can invite Li Jishen to Nanjing, he will not hesitate to pay any price. As for the matter after inviting him to Nanjing, it will be a later story.

Yang Wei naturally had his own reasons for his refusal to come forward. Even if others did not know the reason why Chiang Kai-shek insisted on inviting Li Jishen to Nanjing, Yang Wei knew it very well. It can be said that this is definitely not a good thing for Li Jishen, but for Li Jishen For Yang Wei, it was something to offend others. He would have to deal with Li Jishen one day in the future, so he couldn't make enemies for himself too hastily.

It's just that since he is working for Chiang Kai-shek, the leader's needs should come first. Yang Wei cleared his throat and continued: "But, principal, don't worry, Yang Wei has already thought of a suitable candidate for the principal to go to Shanghai."

"Oh?" Chiang Kai-shek looked at Yang Wei with great interest, raised his chin and said, "According to what you see, the right candidate?"

As early as when he learned that Li Jishen was unwilling to go to Nanjing, Yang Wei had already thought of the best candidate to invite Li Jishen to Nanjing. He frowned and said: "Since we are inviting veterans to come, we naturally need to match our status and status." I don’t know if the headmaster thinks Zhang Cai Wu Li, whether such an arrangement is appropriate?”
