Chapter 524 Alliance (Part 2)

(…The politics is always full of traps and coffins, and sometimes you have to focus on putting your opponent to death; on the battlefield, people can win the respect of their opponents or respect their opponents, but this is not the case in politics, so everyone's actions are the most despicable; I've also despicable... Excerpted from "My Memories of the War of Resistance - Cao Xiaomin")

"The Japanese troops are gathering to board the ship and heading south. The war is about to begin. The Air Force is ordered to implement the No. 1 Plan!" In the "Tiger's Nest" in Guangzhou, Cao Xiaomin once again promoted the tent to order the troops. The "Tiger's Nest" and his momentum once again shocked the three armies, and at the same time, it also made the commanders participating in the war feel a new look and can definitely win!

As soon as the order was issued, Zhou Zhirou and Chennard were busy on the podium where he was located. The bomber group that had already transferred to Chaoshan area in advance adopted the tactic of breaking up the whole and gathering near the bombing target. Without much alarming, the residents nearby had already gone to the battlefield. Waiting for the enemy to attack him was definitely not Cao Xiaomin's style. Cao Xiaomin knew how much damage the large bombing could cause on the landing ground; Cao Xiaomin also bombed the gathering troops at the dock, and would never make the enemy feel better!

After the Air Force fired the first shot at the Japanese, Cao Xiaomin actually left the commander-in-chief and brought Chen Guofu to visit the front line in person! Because many senior generals liked to use this move, the other generals in the "tiger's den" didn't feel anything suddenly, and Cao Xiaomin pulled Chen Guofu away...

"Brother Liehou wants to measure me? To be honest, I'm the first time I went to the front line to inspect the troops overnight..." Chen Guofu waited for the huge roar of the train to calm down before he said slowly: "By the way, I heard that the road has been dug in sections. Where can we change our train?..."

"If you don't change the car, change the horse when you go to the place..." Cao Xiaomin smiled softly. However, Chen Guofu couldn't help frowning. Chen Guofu was 19 years older than Cao Xiaomin. If you want to say that you can ride a horse on the flat ground and exercise. But you can ride a horse to rush to the night...

"There is a long way to go..." Cao Xiaomin suddenly sighed and said, "Before I went south, I visited Ren Gong (Yu Youren). Did Minister Chen hear about it?"

Chen Guofu nodded slightly: "I know you want to fight corruption in Chongqing. You go to Ren Gong, but you are afraid..."

At that time, Yu Youren was responsible for the presidency of the Supervisory Office under the National Government. In order to adapt to the needs of wartime, the Supervisory Office strengthened its functions under the proposal of Youren. On the one hand, it implemented the theater inspection system and collective inspection system, and organized the supervision committee to go to the theater to inspect the wounded soldiers and refugees, and to express condolences to the people in the theater to organize the theater inspection team and the theater military discipline inspection team, the wartime administrative work assessment team, the Central Military Service Supervision Committee, the rescue and wounded soldiers hospital, etc. His supervision office also made suggestions, supervision tests, supervision relief, etc.

The work was fully launched; many impeachments, suggestions, supervision tests, supervision relief, etc. On the other hand, the Supervision Bureau took it as its responsibility to crack down on ** and remedy corrupt officials. Yu Youren hated corruption within the Kuomintang. Under his leadership, the Supervision Bureau launched a severe blow to corrupt officials and illegal dereliction of duty and punished a group of perpetrators. However, due to the complex relationship within the Kuomintang, the impeachment proposed by the people with deep roots often lost the following text, which made the resolute and upright Yu Youren deeply regretted.

"Mr. Ren is really helpless in many situations. After all, he has no soldiers..." Cao Xiaomin's words made Chen Guofu feel moved: Is Cao Xiaomin saying that he wants to join forces with Yu Youren to fight against those who were unable to take action in the past? Cao Xiaomin has many soldiers in his hands! It seems that his murder is not a quick word for a moment... Slow down. Why did he say this to me? Want to pull me together?

Chen Guofu thought about it and looked at Cao Xiaomin seriously and said, "Aren't you afraid of poking a big miscarriage in the sky? Some people are not easy to move..."

"I want to move like this..." Cao Xiaomin expressed his determination when he took over the first sentence of the topic: he must move with determination!

"The Central Party Department and the Supervision Bureau jointly set up an "Independent Commission Against Corruption Office" to assess officials in Chongqing. This Independent Commission Against Corruption Office has its own direct troops, which can directly arrest the suspects; administrative officials and governors below, and military personnel below lieutenant generals can do it directly without reporting..." Cao Xiaomin's suggestion made Chen Guofu feel moved: the Central Commission for Discipline has always been at a disadvantage in the competition with the Military Commission, which is why he is so concerned about the military propaganda team - the military propaganda team can not only say it, but also fight! ... Now Cao Xiaomin's suggestion is to let him have at least half of the army! Of course, this must be approved by Chiang Kai-shek...

"You said, I want to know the overall plan..." Chen Guofu's face became more and more serious. He had to know that the overall plan was to show his attitude. He was indeed considering Cao Xiaomin's suggestions. At least he would not hinder Cao Xiaomin's actions - Cao Xiaomin's plan gave him exactly what he wanted most, the army!

"To be honest, we will meet with two people halfway through the way. They just came from Hong Kong..." Cao Xiaomin directly opened the answer: "One is Mr. Du Yuesheng, a friend of the commissioner, and the other is Mr. Cai Yuanpei, who is currently living in Hong Kong..."

"Boss Du..." Chen Guofu was shocked. He didn't expect Cao Xiaomin to be able to get in touch with Du Yuesheng so quickly!

"Mr. Du is still undecided as Minister Chen..." Cao Xiaomin said calmly: "He is also watching, mainly looking at Minister Chen's choice... But I think there is at least one thing he can be sure of, he will not join my enemy."

This is of course. In addition to entering Chongqing's economy, Du Yuesheng will never give up on his large-scale smuggling business. Maintaining friendly relations with Cao Xiaomin was his natural choice.

Chen Guofu asked, "So, what's going on with Mr. Jimin?" He really couldn't understand why Cao Xiaomin came to Cai Yuanpei.

"Minister Chen, please listen to me and say it slowly..." Cao Xiaomin sorted out his thoughts before slowly explaining his full plan to Chen Guofu...

"We plan to do this. First, Ren Gong impeach some people, and then Minister Chen cooperates with the newspapers in his hands and publishes some people's articles... They include Mr. Jingjiang, Mr. Zhihui, Mr. Jiemin, and Mr. Shi Zeng; then they will jointly denounce corruption and directly accuse him by name..." Before Cao Xiaomin finished speaking, he was startled Chen Guofu: When will Cao Xiaomin bring all the four oldest senior veterans of the Kuomintang?

"After Mr. Ren discussed with me how to deal with those corrupt forces, he wrote a handwritten letter with some of the corrupt forces we have to bring me to Mr. Jimin. I asked Boss Du to bring him to Hong Kong. In addition, the Ren Guild brought Mr. Zhihui in Chongqing, and Mr. Jingjiang in Switzerland and Mr. Shi Zeng in France were also contacted by Mr. Ren..." Cao Xiaomin said: "I think with the four old people's minds, they will definitely help..."

Awesome! Chen Guofu couldn't help but admire Cao Xiaomin's plan: impress the four people with righteousness, especially to make Cai Yuanpei and Li Shizeng, a pair of education giants who are both friends and enemies, donate their past grudges and take action together. Cao Xiaomin was really using them: if someone else took action, it is very likely that he would be hit by various blows before he could finish his work; but these four moves made Chiang Kai-shek dare not act rashly!

Zhang Jingjiang disagrees with Chiang Kai-shek in his development direction after the founding of the People's Republic of China. In addition, the rise of the Confucius and Song families replaced his position as the "God of Wealth" beside Chiang Kai-shek, so he had long faded out of politics and was currently living in Switzerland. However, his position in Chiang Kai-shek's heart is still extremely noble. He was once Chiang Kai-shek's sworn brother, but he has always been the only person in Chiang Kai-shek's mouth who is comparable to Sun Yat-sen!

Cai Yuanpei is currently living in Hong Kong. He is just a nationally renowned educator, but the students who devoted the most enthusiasm to march and join the army during the War of Resistance Against Japan were the students! Imagine a former Peking University president who was morally noble and knowledgeable in the minds of students across the country also came out to condemn some people. How many literati students would follow and shout!?

Wu Zhihui has a strange temper and is willing to become an official, an old scholar who would rather sell his characters in Chongqing to make a living. Even if a person like him comes out to deny anyone, he must have an unbearable crime, and it will never be because of political purposes. And because he has never participated in politics at all, Chiang Kai-shek had a very good impression of him. Almost every time he needed to find a puppet! (In history, Chiang Kai-shek thought that he was the chairman of the National Government, but he actually pushed him too!)

Like Wu Zhihui, Li Shizeng never refused to be an official, and he devoted himself to education, promoting new culture, and introducing Western culture. However, in this historical stage, Li Shizeng had a diplomatic role that no one could replace! Li Shizeng's influence on French politicians is incredible. At present, Vietnam's transportation line is almost the smooth operation of his transportation lines. Gu Weijun, Chinese Ambassador to France, had a far worse influence on the French government than him! (In history, it was Li Shizeng's efforts that made the French government, which had originally planned to recognize the Wang puppet regime, change its original intention at the last moment and refused to recognize the Wang puppet regime.)

Good guy, Yu Youren, who is famous for being upright, came forward to impeach. Among the four senior Kuomintang members, the oldest, who usually do not participate in politics, and have been in the name of moral integrity and integrity for a long time at home and abroad, come out to criticize whom? Can that person still have something to say?

"...This is just the first step. As soon as things are shaken out, Mr. Du can use his power to cause greater responses in society; this response will become louder and louder..." Cao Xiaomin's voice became colder and colder: "At this time, it would be fine if the opponent fell; otherwise I would arrange for some witnesses to publicly correct those corruption incidents, and the matter would spread across the country, and in the end it would cause hundreds of thousands of officers and soldiers in multiple war zones to sign and write blood letters to punish the corruption that drinks blood..."

Chen Guofu gasped: If Cao Xiaomin's plan was implemented smoothly, even ten Kong Xiangxi would fall - not only the fall, but the political life would be completely over. If Kong Xiangxi could still become an official in such a big storm, then Chiang Kai-shek would be a fool!

"How much do you think Du Yuesheng has the opportunity to participate?" Chen Guofu still didn't express his opinion but was asking others.

"He is willing to hand over the letter to Cai Jiemin for me...what do you think?" Cao Xiaomin looked at Chen Guofu and said, "He should have had plans for a long time, but he has always been cautious and wants Minister Chen to make his statement first... But he also understands that no matter how he expresses his opinion, I will attack those borers; and if he wants to choose the Allies, it is only me, because I can make his smuggling business ten times larger and make him unable to move forward!"

"At that time, Boss Du will take over the original military supplies business?" Chen Guofu asked, "Do you have an allocation plan?"

"Of course there is..." Cao Xiaomin said: "On the surface, it is mainly done by Boss Du. In fact, not only the relevant forces participating in this plan can get a share, but also the people of the entire Chongqing and the entire country can get a share!"

"Oh? I'd like to hear the details..." Cao Xiaomin's answer surprised Chen Guofu again. How could he let the people get a share!?

"I know that the current domestic private enterprises are unable to sustain their business mainly because of taxes, such as mining; the production of state-owned mines that are exempt from various taxes will add 30% to the price that is sufficient to generate profits to reach the cost of private mines with heavy tax burdens. If we cancel the special taxes for these private mines, then these private mines will definitely grow in a geometric manner!" Cao Xiaomin said with certainty: "As long as we limit the scale of the mine and the output scale, we must reach above this value before entering the state procurement. We can allow those small private mine owners to join forces to form large companies. I estimate that our various mineral output may reach as much as five times the current one!"

"Do you think our government has room for tax cuts at present?" Chen Guofu was very surprised: Cao Xiaomin can even affect the national taxation?!

"I can't affect taxes, but the state's tax collection is now almost all used to fight against Japan. Minerals are directly supporting the arms, and they can also exchange materials for materials with the Soviet Union. If the minerals are several times more than those taxes, it is not more important than those taxes? The committee calculated..." Cao Xiaomin continued: "In the past, when we chatted with the committee, the committee always missed Mr. Jingjiang. This time, Mr. Jingjiang returned to me and I think the committee may reuse it... Mr. Jingjiang has always been an advocate of industrial saving, and the committee has long been interested in the agriculture and forestry matter. Chen Bonan, I think the industry and commerce are likely to be Mr. Jingjiang..."

Maybe yes. Maybe this is the purpose of power distribution that Cao Xiaomin wants to influence; is this still the Cao Xiaomin who can only fight? Chen Guofu seems to know Cao Xiaomin: there is no one in the world. Cao Xiaomin wants to give himself an army, Du Yuesheng has a market, and Zhang Jingjiang has the dominance of the economic field... He will probably give Cai Yuanpei a prominent position related to education!? Cao Xiaomin actually figured out what everyone wants most, and in addition to gathering everyone under the banner of justice, he also prepared what they hope for the most!

If you only know how to leverage your strength and you can do what you like, it would be fine, but Cao Xiaomin seems to have fully analyzed the subsequent distribution of power and probably has seen it! Has Cao Xiaomin's military sharpness turned to politics?... I suddenly found that Cao Xiaomin was still looking at him, his eyes full of expectations; Chen Guofu finally showed a glimmer of unstoppable smile and stretched out his right hand: "We are allies!"

I don’t know which station the train arrived, but it seemed that it was about to add water or coal to stop at the station. At this time, the door of the private room was knocked. After Cao Xiaomin said "come in", the "little white-faced" led two people in military uniforms in.

That's... Chen Guofu was so surprised that night: the two officers who came in were actually Du Yuesheng and Cai Yuanpei!

Du Yuesheng has already expressed his opinion! Chen Guofu is glad that he is wise. He has formed an alliance with Cao Xiaomin one step earlier. It is obvious that the attitude of wearing military uniforms and coming in to meet without anyone noticing has shown that Du Yuesheng and Cai Yuanpei have both chosen to form an alliance with Cao Xiaomin!

"The country is so difficult and there are people so greedy. How can we sit back and watch!" Cai Yuanpei's pale face was flushed with an unhealthy blush. He had been tortured by illness recently, but he actually put on military uniforms to meet with Du Yuesheng in secret: "General Cao, although we have no power to catch chickens, we also know that every man is responsible for the rise and fall of the country! As long as General Cao needs Jimin to do this matter, there will be no refusal! I will go to Chongqing tomorrow!"

"As an important member of the country, but he is so greedy and powerful at the critical moment of the national survival and demise, wouldn't it be cold to the point of being so greedy and power? I think any Chinese person has only one choice to eliminate evil and punish evil!" Du Yuesheng stretched out his right hand to the four of them...

The meeting between the four was very short, and without knowing that the alliance was completed and further work arrangements were completed in the process of adding coal and water to the train. Next, Cao Xiaomin will go to the line of fire alone to inspect and Chen Guofu will go home...

When Du Yuesheng and Cai Yuanpei disappeared in the aisle, Chen Guofu couldn't help but fight a cold war: Kong Xiangxi died this time, but he didn't know who he died at: Yu Youren, who impeached him, and the four elders who accused him, the newspaper was in the hands of him, Chen Guofu, Yu Youren and others, and the witnesses came from the military supplies unit under the Ministry of Military Affairs. Du Yuesheng was the biggest driving force for inciting the people and became the biggest winner on the surface... Cao Xiaomin fought against the Japanese in Guangdong!

Who would have thought that everything was done by Cao Xiaomin? With Du Yuesheng's arrangement, even Dai Li would not know about the meeting tonight... Oh my God! Cao Xiaomin grew up too fast. He has learned how to kill people without blood in such a short time!

(Training classes during the day and writing at night is all the time until the early morning. I am really tired... looking forward to the weekend!)
