Special Forces of Crossing: Cloud's Anti-Japanese

Chapter 2055 Tan Kah Kee

At the beginning of the Japanese army’s all-out war of aggression against China, the reason why Prime Minister Moto Sugiyama dared to yell out the crazy words of China’s destruction in three months was because he was aware of the huge gap in national power between China and Japan, and because he was sure of capturing Jiangsu and Zhejiang, two opposing forces. The government of the Republic of China is equivalent to the key provinces of the money bag.War is about national strength.This is understandable, but there is another crucial factor that he has ignored, that is, the strong cohesion and dedication that the descendants of the Yellow Emperor erupted at the critical moment of the survival of the nation.The Japanese thought that taking Nanjing, the capital of China, would crush the determination of the Chinese people to resist. What happened?The descendants of Yan and Huang told the Japanese with their sacrifices, that you can occupy our land, but you want us to give up resistance and be subjugated slaves, dreaming!

Without Ouyang Yun, it is no exaggeration to say that the patriotic overseas Chinese led by Tan Kah Kee would be the mainstay of China's maintenance of the anti-Japanese front.After all, war is inseparable from money, and if the national government that lost Jiangsu and Zhejiang has no external financial blood injection, then bankruptcy will only happen overnight.Three years before the Anti-Japanese War, overseas Chinese and overseas Chinese donated 20 billion yuan.If the numbers still can’t explain the problem, then to be more specific, the reason why the national government was able to survive after it moved to Chongqing is because more than 70.00% of the expenses were borne by overseas Chinese. What does this mean?Overseas Chinese and overseas Chinese, they used their blood and sweat to support the government of the Republic of China and maintained the anti-Japanese situation.

Most of the Chinese in that era did not know what role overseas Chinese played in the cause of the Anti-Japanese War in the motherland. However, as a traveler, Ouyang Yun was very clear about the distribution of donations later.It is precisely because he knows these things that he has special feelings for the Chinese and overseas Chinese, and he will insist on carrying out the Singapore rescue. He just does not want the Chinese and overseas Chinese in Nanyang to shed blood and sacrifice after sweating and crying-the Chinese and overseas Chinese have already done it for them. The country has done too much. When they faced the iron heels of the Japanese army, it was time for the country and the army to do something for them.

The Xuebingjun insisted on keeping the account books of donations private. On the one hand, it was because Min Yueqiong did not make a fuss as some people hoped, so the senior officials of the Xuebingjun didn't take it seriously at all. On the other hand, it was because some funds It's not easy to make public.Of course, it is only for the Chongqing government that this is not easy to disclose. For the representatives of Chinese and overseas Chinese, the attitude of the Xuebing Army is to welcome them to check and supervise.Ouyang Yun initiated the Singapore Rescue with the pure purpose of saving people.But after he was rescued, everyone in the Xuebing Army system was stunned by the feedback from the overseas Chinese in Nanyang.The first is funding.Overseas Chinese in Nanyang were able to donate more than 300 million national currency per month during the most difficult period of the domestic war of resistance, thanks to the middle and upper business class who owned some industries in Nanyang.The Japanese occupation of the Dutch East Indies, British Singapore and Malaysia wiped out their local businesses.But as a big family that has struggled for several generations in the local area, their background is far more than those industries.So, soon, many factories and mines were added in Guangzhou and its surrounding areas. At the same time, a bank named Nanyang Bank opened to provide loan business for the rescued overseas Chinese in Nanyang.The influx of a large number of idle funds immediately brought the already prosperous business in Guangzhou to a higher level.As for the financial power within the jurisdiction of the Xuebing Army, there is another branch of Nanyang in addition to the officials of the Xuebing Army, northern industrialists, Jews, and locals in Guangzhou.Next is talent.The education level of overseas Chinese in Nanyang is much higher than that of Guangzhou and other regions, and because most of them worked in factories run by Chinese when they were in Nanyang, there are many skilled workers, which just filled the gap under the rule of Xuebingjun. Weakness to the Artisan Power Rifle.The last is pointing.Although the current Xuebing military government still has various deficiencies, compared with other places in the country, even compared with Nanjing before the Japanese occupation, both the political environment and the social environment are much better.This allowed overseas Chinese to recognize them from the bottom of their hearts. Under their propaganda, more Chinese and overseas Chinese rushed to Guangzhou from all over the world. Gradually, a consensus was formed in the circle of overseas Chinese and overseas Chinese: to return to China to save the nation, go to Guangzhou!
Before he was rescued to Guangzhou last year, Tan Kah Kee traveled to many places to support the Anti-Japanese War. After coming to Guangzhou, he was impressed by the clean government and good anti-Japanese atmosphere in Guangzhou. He set up the Nanyang Overseas Chinese Relief Association in the Guangzhou, since then, I have been in Guangzhou to dispatch relief work, ending the previous state of running around behind the front lines of the Anti-Japanese War all over the country.Chen Kah Kee's reputation is so great that the four major families and the military commanders had his idea in mind when they made plans to force Ouyang Yun to go to the wild with the help of civilian forces. In addition, the Nanyang Association for Relief of the Motherland had an office in Chongqing, so Chongqing began to mobilize Regarding Ouyang Yun's demonstration, Chen Jiageng got the news.Tan Kah Kee has an upright temper and can't rub the sand in his eyes. After receiving the notification from the Chongqing office, he immediately became angry and said in front of his staff: "If Commander-in-Chief Ouyang is a national traitor, then who are those people in the Chongqing government? I think China The reason why the anti-Japanese war situation can not be opened is because of these people." He also said: "This kind of thing that relatives hate enemies can be done quickly, I think that the career of the former Prime Minister will be ruined by them sooner or later. !” After the massive demonstrations in Chongqing began, Kong Xiangxi immediately contacted him, hoping that he would bravely stand up and criticize the warlord Ouyang Yun in consideration of the overall situation, and urge him to step down so as to give the people of Fujian, Guangdong and Qiong a bright and sunny day.Tan Kah Kee completely ignored this, and was forced into a hurry. He called back and said that if Kong continued to entangle in this matter, he would not even be a friend in the future.Kong understood his temper and dared not send any further persecution, but signaled to the petitioners to continue to put pressure on him.

Tan Kah Kee joined the Tongmenghui as early as 1910, and once contributed to Sun Yat-sen's revolutionary activities in Nanyang, so he had an intersection with several veterans of the democratic revolution in the petition group.When Ji Xingwen came to the door, it happened that Chen Jiageng happened to meet them in the living room. Chen Jiageng was amazing, so he pretended to be open and said to those people after hearing the news: "I don't agree with your proposal. No one agrees, Mr. Ji, the general political director of the Xuebing Army, just came, you can convince him first, if he agrees, I will think about it later."

When those people petitioned the commander-in-chief of the Xuebing Army, they were received by Ji Xingwen. Although Ji Xingwen didn't speak ill of each other at the time, he made them encounter a big or small setback.The reason why the four major families and the military command dared to do this was not only because they were greedy for profit and felt that "the people's hearts are available", but also because they thought that there must be someone in the senior ranks of the Xuebing Army who would be willing to take over Ouyang Yun's power.Among this person, Ji Xingwen is also among them.The reason why the petition group dared to write a letter was also aimed at this point, so after encountering a snag at Ji Xingwen, they were already frightened. Now that they heard that Ji Xingwen had come, how could they dare to persuade him? See you again.

Chen Jiageng was already very impatient with them, how could he promise them to come back another day? He grabbed the leader and asked Ji Xingwen to come in quickly, saying: "Mr. Ji is very reasonable, such a good opportunity Don't miss it, sit down, Mr. Ji will be here soon."

After Ji Xingwen came in, he was taken aback when he saw the petitioners, and then he couldn't help smiling secretly when he saw them sitting on pins and needles, knowing that they must have failed to convince Tan Kah Kee, and he became more confident in achieving his goal.

Chen Jiageng also somewhat guessed the intention of Ji Xingwen's visit. After a brief exchange of pleasantries, he took the initiative to provoke the topic and said to Ji Xingwen: "Mr. , You don’t know the truth if you don’t know the truth, what do you think?”

Chen Jiageng got straight to the point, and Ji Xingwen no longer concealed it, and said, "I'm here for this." He took out the "Petition" from his body and handed it to Chen Jiageng, saying: "This is their petition, you Look at the completely plagiarized theories of the Chongqing gang. How many of the Chongqing gang have been to Guangzhou, and how many of them know the contribution made by our army to the War of Resistance? Which of these reasons is tenable? ? Don’t say anything else, let’s talk about the second one. They said that everything Commander-in-Chief Ouyang did in Guangzhou was an act of a warlord, and the ultimate goal was to realize his personal ambition? I would like to ask, what kind of ambition does Commander-in-Chief Ouyang have? ?Anti-Japanese killing devils is also an ambition? Then all of our cadets have this ambition, so should we all go to the field? Let’s talk about the third point, yes, the commander-in-chief is a bit romantic, but what does the harem group say? Why did they slander our anti-Japanese fighters as the commander-in-chief's slaves? Where were they when they killed the devils in Yingya Mountain? A group of guys who are not even as good as women dare to point fingers in matters of the Anti-Japanese War..." "Central Daily" Fortunately, although the things reported above were unfair, there were no vicious personal attacks after all, and some tabloids did everything they could.Among the high-ranking members of the Xuebing Army, Ji Xingwen was considered to have a good temper, but he was also very angry by those tabloids. The more he talked, the more angry he became, and gradually became more and more serious.

After Chen Jiageng arrived in Guangzhou, Ji Xingwen had the most dealings with senior officials of the Xuebing Army. This was the first time he had seen such a big anger, and he didn't pay attention to the occasion at all, which made him a little worried about how this matter would affect Ouyang Yun. The strength of the attack has become more and more afraid to stay out of it.After reading the "Petition", he was also angry at some of the slanderous clauses above. Ji Xingwen finally got angry, and he stated: "Although I have not been in Guangzhou for a long time, I can also see that Commander-in-Chief Ouyang and The Xuebing Army really takes the anti-Japanese war as its own mission, and the above things are too outrageous. Everyone, you are all revolutionary veterans in the prime minister's era. You can't be deceived by villains and damage the good anti-Japanese situation in Guangzhou! No, we No one is allowed to slander the heroes of the War of Resistance in this way, well, this first article about donations for the War of Resistance has a lot to do with us Chinese and overseas Chinese, so I must clarify it in the newspaper!"
