Ji Shaoshan was unable to meet Zhong Yang in the end, and it was difficult to get together with his ideas. Zhou Hua did not make things difficult for him, just to send his gifts out of the country. Zhong Yang once told Zhou Hua that if Ji Shaoshan was willing to abandon the Hongmen and submit, he would take him to Tianhai Pavilion.

If it is still a good thing, then forget it.

In the following days, the situation in China followed the original trajectory and advanced to the designated place. Zhong Yang stood with his hands behind his back, sneering and watching the ugly performances indifferently.

On January 26, 1925, Sun Yixian was admitted to Union Hospital. At this time, he could no longer eat. In the afternoon of the same day, Liu Ruiheng, a surgical expert and acting director of Union Hospital, performed a laparotomy on his surgery and was diagnosed with advanced cancer. He issued a critical illness notice on February 17, and finally returned to heaven on March 12.

The death of this man profoundly affected the history of China after that. First of all, the ** Party and the Huangpu New Army finally had a reliable military leader and began to continuously achieve military victories.

Sun Yixian, who does not talk about moral matters, can be called a hero based on his achievements. Even Chen Jiongming sent an elegiac couplet: "Only a hero can kill people and live people, and the culprits will be born in history; he has fought with his old friends again and again, and his public hatred and personal friendship are all based on his own knowledge."

The second point is that it happened in Guangzhou. The ** Party's internal strife once again. The one who sacrificed this time will be Liao Zhongkai. I can't remember clearly that this is the first time the ** Party has internal political struggle in history. The red-shaped parties seem to be very keen on this kind of power struggle.

Feng Huanzhang, a capricious nine-sentence slave, was unable to complete a strategic alliance with Sun Yixian and implement the Soviet Union's plan to divide China. And within the Party, he also fell into a new round of "competition for power" activities for power and profit because he lost a strong leader.

The most interesting thing is that the dog bites the dog of the Yunnan-Guangdong coalition and the Huangpu Army. Sun Yixian was braided in March, Yang Ximin and Liu Zhenhuan actually held a meeting in Hong Kong in mid-May, inviting representatives of Tang Jiyao, Duan Qirui, Chen Jiongming and Chen Lianbo to participate to discuss the "rebellion" plan. In an attempt to jointly attack the Guangzhou government and establish a "reactionary" regime.

Yang claimed to be the commander-in-chief of the Yunnan-Guangdong coalition. After the meeting, he expanded his troops to the suburbs, stepped up his deployment, openly "rebellion" and embarked on the road of "anti-**". The leftists and Hongmen, led by Liao Zhongkai, advocated a resolute attack. Hu Hanmin immediately removed Yang Ximin from all positions in the name of acting Grand Marshal and ordered a siege.

Under the fierce offensive of the troops under the Guangzhou ** government, especially the new Huangpu student army, the rebels of Yunnan and Guangxi were all defeated, and Yang Ximin fled to Hong Kong through the British Concession via Shamian.

The leftist who just judged this "rebellion" and supported the Red Gate, Liao Zhongkai, was assassinated by a thug at the Central Party Committee of the ** Party located in the Huizhou Guild Hall on August 20, 1925. After investigation, it was believed that the assassination was done by the ** Party right, and Hu Hanmin was considered to be a major suspect.

However, in terms of interests, Zhou Hua and Zhong Yang both believed that this matter should have the greatest relationship with Jiang Ruiyuan. He was the only successor who could truly inherit Sun Yixian's mantra. Hu Hanmin, a civil servant, was not as cruel as such. With his IQ, there was no need to kill Liao Zhongkai.

As for Wang Zhaoming, he would not do such a thing.

However, Liao's death was indeed a matter of great joy among the party. Although Wang Zhaoming shouted loudly as soon as he came to power and said that he would investigate and punish him severely, in fact, it was left unresolved in the end. Jiang Ruiyuan held the power of military power and was not afraid of others' suspicion. Not to mention Wang, Hu had no evidence, so what if there was evidence?

In September 1925, the remaining troops of Chen Jiongming's army had a total of about 35,000 people. Taking advantage of the ** Party Student Army and the Guangdong Army returning from Chaoshan to Guangzhou to pacify Yunnan. The Guangxi warlords Yang Ximin and Liu Zhenhuan rebelled, they regained the Dongjiang area and joined forces with the Sichuan Army to station the Xiong Kewu Army in Lianshan and Deng Benyin's troops in Gaozhou and other eight-member coalition forces in the south to occupy Guangzhou.

At this time, Wang Zhaoming, who served as the new leader, decided to completely eliminate Chen Jiongming's army in the name of the ** government, so he decided to use the 1st and 4th Army of the ** Army as the base, and a total of about 23,000 troops to form the Eastern Expedition Army, with three columns. He appointed Jiang Ruiyuan as the commander-in-chief, Wang Zhaoming as the party representative, Hu Qian as the chief of staff, Ji Shaoshan as the director of the General Political Department, and led the second Eastern Expedition.

As early as shortly after Sun Yixian's death, Ji Shaoshan returned to Guangzhou.

On October 1, the Eastern Expedition Army set out from Guangzhou and advanced rapidly towards Huizhou along the banks of the East River. On the 13th, the two cities of Huizhou launched an attack on Huiyang and Huizhou. The next evening, conquering the two places, annihilated more than 3,000 Chen troops in the defending city, and won the first battle, creating favorable conditions for the complete elimination of the Chen army.

On the 17th, the Eastern Expedition Army advanced eastward in three directions: the 1st Column was the right-road army, which attacked Haifeng and Hepo through Renshan; the 2nd Column was the middle-road army, which attacked Longwo and Lantang through Pingshan Xin'anwei; the 3rd Column was the left-road army, which attacked Heyuan through Shigong Shenwei. On the 22nd, the right-road army captured Haifeng; the central army encountered more than 10,000 main forces of the Chen army in Retang, south of Lantang, and defeated him the next day. On the same day, the left-road army conquered Heyuan.

On the 28th, the Right Route Army and the Central Route Army surrounded more than 5,000 Chen troops in Tanghu, southeast of Huayang, and after fierce battles, they were wiped out. At this point, the Chen army was unable to resist. The Eastern Expedition Army marched straight into the frontier, conquering Xingning within a few days, recovering Chao'an, Shantou and Raoping. Then, they divided into three routes to chase and annihilate the remnants of Chen's army who fled into the Fujian-Jiangxi border area. By the end of November, except for seven or eight thousand people who defected to the Shandong Zhilu coalition, the rest were all wiped out, and the second Eastern Expedition ended.

The two Eastern Expeditions achieved victory in completely annihilated Chen Jiongming's army, laying the foundation for the Party to unify Guangdong and create a consolidated base.

At this point, the grudges and grudges between Sun Yixian and Chen Jiongming were finally settled. From making friends and comrades to mortal enemies of life and death, it is really sad. The curtain of the great era was officially opened because of the consequences of these two people.

If Sun Yixian is a successful person who uses any means, then Chen Jiongming is a loser who adheres to principles. Perhaps, those who adhere to principles are always easy to lose to those who use any means, moralists are always easy to lose to utilitarians, and idealists are always easy to lose to opportunists.

As early as 1920, when Chen Jiongming was stationed in southern Fujian, Lenin's secret envoy Potpov visited him and said that the Soviet Union could use the ordnance stored in Vladivostok for the Guangdong Army. Chen thought that ** should not rely on external forces, so he politely refused. At that time, the Soviet Union's more willing partner was Chen Jiongming, and Sun Yixian, who was in the back.

The ** Party later relied on Soviet military aid to defeat Chen Jiongming's troops and successfully marched to the Northern Expedition. From the end of 1922 to the beginning of 1923, Sun Yixian contacted the warlords in the southwest and attacked Guangzhou, where Chen Jiongming was in charge. At that time, Guangzhou's wealth was exhausted and the army was shaken. Most of the generals in the front demanded a ban on gambling to maintain the economy with gambling taxes.

Regarding this matter, Chen Pingran said: "The Guangdong army can be defeated, but the bet cannot be opened."

Seeing this, I have to sigh at the difference between Sun Yixian and Chen Jiongming. If Chen did not insist on adhering to his usual gambling ban policy, why would his subordinates have mutiny and become a foreign enemy? Unfortunately, there is no if in history. No matter how noble the ideal is, they have to face the lonely reality.

The success and the defeat of the enemy have always been the same since ancient times. There has never been history in the past? The most difficult thing in the world is peace.

Changzhou Fortress is located in Huangpu, about 15 kilometers east of Guangzhou. The fort is distributed on the tops of the Changzhou and Yuzhu areas. Changzhou Island is about 6 square kilometers, with undulating mountains, lush forests and surrounded by water on all sides. It is connected to Yuzhu Fort in the north and Shalu Fort in the east, three mountains stand side by side, squaring the river surface, and crossing the Humen along the Pearl River into Guangzhou's throat. It has always been a must-fight place for military strategists.

During the Guangxu period of the Qing Dynasty, the Qing government built forts in Changzhou, Yuzhu, Shalu and other places, making them a horn and becoming the last barrier to defend the east gate of Guangzhou. In the late Qing Dynasty and early Republic of China, the Changzhou Fortress Command was established to manage various forts.

The fort is built on seven hills southeast of Changzhou Island. It consists of Baitugang Fortress, Baihegang Fortress, Dasloping Fortress, Four-slit Fortress, Old Xigang Fortress, New Xigang Fortress, and Butterfly Gang Fortress. The total length is nearly two kilometers, and the fortresses are arranged in order from north to south, forming a fan shape.

Since Sun Yixian occupied Guangdong, he has strengthened the defense construction here. The distances between the various forts vary, the size of the artillery position and the number of artillery equipped, vary by terrain. Each fort has military dormitories, ammunition depots, tunnels and other auxiliary facilities. The fort is equipped with foreign cannons made by the German Krupp Factory. The cannon body is quite long, the shells are about 1 meter long and weigh 240 kilograms. The fish bead turret is located in Huangpu Yuzhu, which is built on three hills, Lion's waist and Crab Mountain, forming a three-legged tripod formation.

Jiang Ruiyuan, the second-ranked figure in the party now, is the biggest of him except Wang Zhaoming. But even so, he had to move out of the Dongshan Villa, and his wife Chen Jieru stayed in Changzhou Fortress. The reason was that he had experienced three thrilling assassinations, which made him feel sad.

This fine tradition of the ** Party is really sad. Jiang Ruiyuan escaped by chance when his character exploded three times in the first half of the year. But he didn't think his life could be harder than a bullet. In the end, he still felt that Huangpu could make him feel more at ease. This is his base.

Today's ** Party has intensified political struggles due to the struggle for power and profit, and assassination activities have occurred one after another. What's more, Sun Yixian offended so many people back then, but now he is dead, and the rest of them are retaliated against.

In the simple furnished office, Jiang Ruiyuan looked sad. Sun Yixian's death was a big blow to him. Whether it was emotional or interest demands, he felt sad for Sun's death. The new Huangpu army was just beginning to be established, but it was not full of strength, and Jiang Ruiyuan did not have enough prestige and qualifications to suppress the other competitors.

So he had to rely on Wang Zhaoming's command and pretend to be bowing his head. The reason why he chose to surrender to Wang Zhaoming was mainly because he was not easy to persuade and was easy to fool him. As for excluding Hu Hanmin, it was not out of personal feelings, but actually needed.

In 1925, Jiang Ruiyuan was the principal of the Whampoa Military Academy and the chief of staff of the Guangdong Army, and the commander of the Guangzhou garrison. He held the Guangdong military government with great importance to power. Because he occupied a critical position and indeed became a career for many people, he did offend many people. In order to show his loyalty to Sun Yixian and gain more rights, he always prided himself on the surface as the left side of the Kuomintang and strongly supported the alliance with Russia and the Red League.

The right-wing figures of the ** Party hated him to the core, and he established himself in the Huangpu New Army and excluded the local Guangdong Army, which made the Guangdong generals very dissatisfied. In addition, he had attacked the Guangzhou Merchant Group earlier and ordered the investigation of all the belongings of Chen Lianbo, the leader of the Merchant Group, in Guangdong. These matters aroused hatred from many people.

His name has long been at the forefront of the assassination list of these people. Especially since Sun Dapao just died, all the forces of various factions want to take the opportunity to gain more benefits, so in this extremely chaotic situation, he was assassinated three times this year.

What is amazing is his magical luck. As for whether it is artificial, it is unknown. But it is undeniable that with these incidents, he quickly divided the party power and military power in the party system with Wang Zhaoming, and became an important key figure in the party.

Especially in the case of Liao Zhongkai's murder, Wang Zhaoming, Xu Chongzhi and Jiang Ruiyuan immediately sent people to lift Liang Hongkai's military power, put Hu Hanmin under house arrest, and wanted Hu Yisheng and others. At this point, the right-wing Kuomintang quickly fell.

Wang Zhaoming and Jiang Ruiyuan quickly took over the power of the ** government. But at this time, a large part of the military power was in the hands of Xu Chongzhi. Jiang Ruiyuan also had the means to trick Xu Chongzhi out of Guangdong, trick him into becoming an apartment official, and cleaned up Xu Chongzhi's power in Guangdong, and instructed people to list Xu Chongzhi's "Ten Major Crimes".

Xu Chongzhi was the leader of the Guangdong Army and was the Minister of Military Affairs of the National Government and Chairman of the Guangdong Provincial Government. But this person could be regarded as Jiang Ruiyuan's benefactor. Because of this, Jiang Ruiyuan's behavior was hated by the former subordinates of the Xu Guangdong Army, which led to the third assassination.

In order to avoid the limelight for the time being, he could only take his family and live in the Changzhou Fortress. The safety of entering and leaving was relied on the officers and soldiers of Huangpu.

"Cangbai, what do you say about the Soviet Union?" Even if he is dissatisfied with the Soviet Union's concept of redification, Jiang Ruiyuan will not be unable to get along with military aid. On the surface, he seems very humble. He doesn't say anything about Ye Yiwei changing his family and joining the Red Gate, and he shows enough trust in him as usual.

Borotin's real name is Mikhail Markovic Grucenberg, and Mima Borotin is the one who uses the most among his pseudonyms. He was born on July 9, 1884 in a Jewish family in Tsarist Oyanovic. He worked as a boatman and started his career at the age of 16 and participated in the General League of Jewish Social Democracy.

It was such a Jew who came to China from a huge amount of funds and arms reserves to promote the concept of redemption. Looking at the entire world history, there were many Jews in World War I and World War II. They did not like redemption, but were keen to spread this ** system within other ethnic systems.

For the Guangzhou ** government, Borotin really had a great influence. People in later generations always believed that power was born from the gun, which was actually a nonsense.

Today, Jiang Ruiyuan has encountered the same problem. None of the military supplies, food and logistics supplies can be solved by himself. Without a stable and powerful economic system, no gun can be used. This is the fate of the industrial age. Relying on robbery? You will be a bandit all your life and it will be difficult to become a great weapon.

Either just like Sun Yixian or Ma Ziren, they will be puppets of the Soviet Union and hold their godfather's thighs. Only in order to seek military material assistance will there be a glimmer of hope.

Ye Yiwei had no expression on his face and just shook his head: "A large-scale aid plan is absolutely impossible, and the Russian side is also dissatisfied with our suspension of the Northern Expedition." Although he said this, both of them understood that the Soviet Union's aid was not endless, and the limit had reached.

The pressure from Britain and France cannot be completely ignored by the Soviet Union. The ** Party disrupted the situation in Guangdong, which has made other powerful people in China dissatisfied with the situation. Moreover, the situation in the Soviet Union and Russia is also very bad. The situation in the Great Famine that began in 1921 has not improved much.

After hearing Ye Yiwei's answer, Jiang Ruiyuan was also in deep thought. He was considering an agreement with Chen Ze. The transfer of Guangdong Province and even the entire south was insignificant to him. Anyway, this is not his territory. Compared with Guangdong and Guangxi, which are unfamiliar with people and land, he is more interested in the generation of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, especially the two metropolitan cities of Shanghai and Nanjing.

In history, Jiang Ruiyuan's direct lineage of the Whampoa Army in the ** Party has never gained a firm foothold in Guangdong and Guangxi. Guangdong was the territory of Hu Hanmin and Chen Jitang, and even had a confrontation with Jiang Ruiyuan, who controlled the power of the central government at that time. As for Guangxi, let alone President Li Zongren's name is well-known.

Jiang Ruiyuan had no pressure on others' things to exchange for benefits, and he had never had any hesitation. What he was thinking about now was thinking about how to sell it at a good price. For him, the Soviet Union had lost its final value.

Ye Yiwei had not yet realized that the chess piece that the Red Gate valued, Sun Yixian, who was relied on by the Soviet Union, had already thoughts that rejected the concept of redification in his heart.

The two chatted for a while, and seeing that there was nothing important, Ye Yiwei said goodbye and left. Jiang Ruiyuan, who was sitting at the desk, had a cold look in his eyes after Ye Yiwei left, and ordered the guards on duty to summon Liu Haoran. It was time for the cooperation between the two sides to carry out.

Although Jiang Ruiyuan was wary of the Tianyu Group and the coalition government, he also understood that the current situation was subtle. It was not a long time for the party to be attached to Wang Zhaoming. He urgently needed to return to the Jiangsu and Zhejiang areas, especially his hometown in Shanghai. He still had a lot of connections there, and was able to establish a high-level financial system to support the operation of the army.

It is much better than dying from sleep in Guangzhou. After the incident of excluding Hu Hanmin and Xu Chongzhi, he also realized that this place is not suitable for his foundation.

Liu Haoran's identity also made him worry. The inside story of Tianyu Group and the low-key actions of Xinghua News Agency have made him feel suspicious. As a superior, he doesn't even need evidence, and just suspicion is enough. The unclear relationship between Liu Haoran and Chen Ze is really hard to rest assured.

Other businessmen, even like Chen Lianbo, would not let him pay so much attention. But Liu Haoran is different. Xinghua Club has its own arms production enterprise and is located in Panyu, which makes him wonder if there is any secret here.

Or he couldn't understand Chen Ze's layout. But no matter what, the curtain of the Northern Expedition had to be opened, and he couldn't wait, and he lost the ** Party Huangpu New Army funded by the Soviet Union...
