Special Forces of Crossing: Cloud's Anti-Japanese

Chapter 110

After changing trains in Xuzhou, Ouyang Yun and his party came to Guangzhou in a few days.

When people chatted on the road, Guangzhou was mentioned more than once.Guangzhou can be said to be the cradle of the revolution of the Republic of China. Due to special geographical factors, the people here are most influenced by Western democratic thoughts. The famous Whampoa Military Academy is located here.Guangzhou has a unique position in the political system of the Republic of China government. Many veterans of the Kuomintang are from Cantonese or have settled here.Now Chen Jitang, the actual controller of Guangdong, is known as the King of the South, not to mention Chen Jitang's character, whether he has the ambition to compete in the Central Plains, what Jiang Shuren and Ouyang Yun talked about most was about his governance of Guangdong.

Under the governance of Chen Jitang, the achievements of Guangdong are obvious to all.In terms of administration, he proposed to "reform bad habits, refresh politics, and create a model new Guangdong." He criticized the central government for saying that "no matter what province, it did not follow the policies set by the Prime Minister, so it became disorganized and chaotic, and lacked a specific plan." , those in charge of politics lack the consistent spirit of revolution; the referees in China are looking for life and a bowl of food for them, so the public officials in various agencies lack the sense of responsibility for the nation; they follow bad habits and do not aim at creation", He pointed out that "the situation in the Southwest is special. It is located on the front line of national defense, adjacent to Hong Kong and Macau, and there are many overseas Chinese. The decisions and decrees promulgated by Nanjing are not quite suitable for reality, and there should be gains and losses." This may be his excuse for leaving the central government. , but it is true.He believes that "the quality of politics depends on the quality of officials", so he set up a "Public Servant Performance Evaluation Committee" to train and evaluate officials, and select public servants through examinations.

In terms of military affairs, he changed the militia groups that had previously harassed the local area into a guard force for unified management and unified organization. This move raised nearly one million military and police teams for Guangdong at once, and maintained social order well.

When Chen Jitang first took over Guangdong's military administration, in order to change the financial embarrassment facing bankruptcy, he proposed firstly to increase revenue and reduce expenditure, and secondly to clear up accumulated malpractices, and drew up specific regulations for punishing corrupt officials.At the same time, in order to protect local agriculture, import duties were levied on imported rice and sugar—this may be the first "anti-dumping duty" imposed by China in modern times to protect its own industry.In addition, he set up a large-scale industry, and successively expanded and built a batch of profitable paper mills, textile mills, sack factories, sulfuric acid factories, beverage factories, cement factories, glass factories and power plants, thus obtaining huge profits. Thereby solving the huge military expenditure.

What Chen Jitang deserves to praise is his emphasis on education and cultural undertakings. First, he implemented compulsory education in the countryside, and expanded civilian schools and adult cram schools for men and women (when Ouyang Yun heard this, he couldn't help but think of his own society. The literacy class that no longer exists, the interest in Chen Jitang can not help but increase).Chen Jitang has made many achievements in education and cultural undertakings, such as building vocational schools, proposing that schools should be farmed and urban education should be professionalized and students should be laborized.The new schools raised by him include Sun Yat-sen University, Engineering College, Teachers College and Business College of Bergen University, Guangdong Army Medical School and Army General Hospital, Provincial No. [-], No. [-], No. [-] Agricultural School and No. [-] vocational school.

Of course, his motivation for attaching so much importance to education is not pure, it is actually to strengthen his own rule. It is not difficult to see in "The Doctrine of the Mean" and the promotion of the four dimensions and eight virtues.But no matter what his starting point is, the development of education is a great thing that will benefit future generations, and it can indeed be recorded as one of his merits in the annals of history.

Jiang Shuren knew both Guangdong and Chen Jitang very well, but Ouyang Yun was a noob in this respect—the original impression of Chen Jitang in his mind was that of a warlord.After listening to Jiang Shuren's narration, his perception of Chen Jitang completely changed. He thought that if this guy could get my computer knowledge, what would Guangdong look like now? The little devil fights back to the island!When he thought of this, his heart moved—it should be next year that the Cantonese faction will withdraw from the stage of history. Chen Jitang united with the Guangxi faction to overthrow Chiang Kai-shek, but in the end, Lao Jiang used the strategy of drawing salary from the bottom to win over all the important generals under his command, so he had no choice but to retreat to Hong Kong. Guangdong, which has been painstakingly managed for many years, is lost like this.According to historical records, Chen Jitang is superstitious, so Huang Banxian may play a certain role!He decided to take up the matter as soon as he returned from America.

Maybe it's a matter of background. Although Ouyang Yun is a special soldier who is only half-level, as a soldier, he is always used to thinking about issues from a military perspective. Apart from the need to consider economic construction, Ouyang Yun has never really paid attention to education and culture. kind of thing.Jiang Shuren’s narration about Guangdong and Chen Jitang made him realize the importance of education and culture, and also made him aware of his own shortcomings—speaking of which he was still too young to consider everything. From this point of view, he could only Give full play to the plagiarism expertise of the traversers, make a name for yourself economically, and then lead an army to contribute as much as possible to the anti-Japanese cause.

After resetting himself, he felt a sense of relief, and he was not so concerned about the loss of the computer.

On June 6, Ouyang Yun and his party set foot on the land of Hong Kong.They came all the way from Guangzhou by car and saw the prosperity and order of Guangdong. The businessmen all praised them, saying that the Southern Heavenly King lived up to his reputation and managed Guangdong really well.Among them, the enlightened people looked at Ouyang Yun in a different way, obviously hoping that he could also build Hebei into a "model province" like Guangdong!

Compared with Guangdong, the prosperity of Hong Kong is another scene, which is not difficult to see from the clothes people wear.Although long gowns and cheongsams are available, they are no longer common, but suits and skirts abound. Coupled with the occasional appearance of Westerners with high noses and blue eyes in the crowd, Hong Kong's status as an international metropolis in the East is fully demonstrated.

Everyone got out of the car at the gate, shook hands with the guard platoon soldiers and said goodbye. After entering Hong Kong on foot, they walked out of the military area until they saw Jiang Shuren's classmate Fang Dawei who came to greet him.

Fang Da lived up to his name, and he really looked "Fang Da", with a height of about 1.8 meters [-], a waist circumference of nearly [-] feet [-], a square face that was a bit round, and sharp eyes.In the telegram, Jiang Shuren hoped that he could create some momentum for the inspection team. Fang Dawei lived up to his trust and organized a large-scale welcome team by using his connections and work convenience.Along with him, there were many famous people in Hong Kong and a large number of reporters.

Ouyang Yun and Jiang Shuren walked at the front of the inspection team. The latter saw his old classmate and was about to greet him when the spotlights flashed one after another.

Ouyang Yun had already noticed that something was wrong with the formation, but he didn't pay much attention to it, thinking that they had another purpose.After several reporters rushed up and surrounded me to ask questions, I realized that they were targeting the investigation group and myself.He was stunned at first, and then he realized that this was Jiang Shuren's "hard work", so he answered various questions with admiration.

The reporters asked a variety of questions, some were concerned about how many people died in the "April 29 Massacre"; some asked about "Shang Lian'er's suicide for love"; some asked about the purpose of the mission to the United States; Whether they really want to stand on their own in North China; more about penicillin.

When Fang Dawei saw Jiang Shuren, he immediately led people up to meet him. At this time, the reporters blocked his way, so he could only wave his hand and smile to his old classmate behind them.

The reporters' interviews lasted about fifteen minutes, and Ouyang Yun patiently answered almost all the questions, except for personal matters of course.As a modern person, I have seen a lot of interviews on TV, and I have experienced many times in Beiping. He is not stage fright at all, and he has a very "star temperament", which left a good impression on the reporters in Hong Kong.

After the reporters dispersed, the protagonists had a chance to appear on stage.Jiang Shuren and Fang Dawei made introductions to the two parties respectively, and the two sides exchanged greetings, and then Fang Dawei led them to the place of accommodation - a villa owned by his friend and businessman Huang Jiayu.

Fang Dawei and Jiang Shuren are both old classmates and good friends. It can be said that they have given Jiang Shuren enough face. They not only solved the problem of temporary accommodation for the delegation, but also borrowed more than a dozen cars to serve them.

Huang Jiayu's villa is located in Tsim Sha Tsui, Kowloon Island, not far from Victoria Harbour. Considering safety issues, Fang Dawei also set up the dust-cleaning banquet for the delegation here.

The reason why celebrities in Hong Kong were willing to welcome the inspection team was that the "anti-Japanese heroes" and penicillin were selling points. After some gossip during the meeting, a professor of medical university named Lu Dingguang brought up this topic and asked Ouyang Yun: "Penicillin is really legendary. magical effect?Can wound infections be treated?
Ouyang Yun had been prepared for a long time and produced an experiment report plagiarized from a computer.

Lu Dingguang looked it over carefully, then exchanged glances with a giant businessman named Li Zhejiang, and asked him if he could take it back with him, saying that if it was possible, he wanted to do an experiment himself.

Ouyang Yun observed the words and expressions, and understood that there must be some kind of tacit understanding between these two people. It seemed that they wanted to learn from those "cottage" owners of later generations and make a copycat version of penicillin.Feeling funny in my heart, I said solemnly on my face: Of course there is no problem, but the penicillin I used for the experiment has been purified, and the purity has reached 99.99%. If the purity is not enough, accidents are easy to happen.What he said was complete nonsense, but Lu Dingguang believed it. After thinking about it in his heart, it was really impossible to purify penicillin of this concentration. He shook his head and said, "That's it, then my experiment seems to be impossible."

Penicillin whetted the appetite of Hong Kong businessmen, and then the issue of agency rights in Hong Kong, Macau and even Southeast Asia was brought up by sensitive people.Taking advantage of the situation, Ouyang Yun and Jiang Shuren put forward the investment promotion plan of Renqiu County Government.When the news of Renqiu's oil was revealed, the enthusiasm of the businessmen was fully mobilized, and a dust-cleaning feast turned into a meeting for attracting investment.
