Yannian's words were like dropping a bomb at a calm level, and he was stunned at the meeting, and then excited to directly attack imperialism. Nothing was more attractive than this. A discussion suddenly sounded in the room. Chen Yannian did not stop him, but let everyone talk freely. After being excited, everyone felt the difficulties.

"Secretary Chen, what is the scale of the strike?" Yang Yin asked first.

"It is best to let all workers in Hong Kong participate." Deng Zhongxia said. When everyone was talking just now, he did not participate, but exchanged glances with Chen Yannian. It was obvious that Chen Yannian had discussed with him in advance.

Deng Zhongxia's words made everyone gasp. The number of workers in Hong Kong will undoubtedly reach hundreds of thousands of workers, which has never been seen in the history of Hong Kong, and has never been seen in the history of the world's workers' movement.

The room fell silent for a moment. Chen Yannian smiled and said, "What's wrong? If you have any ideas, just say it out? Today's meeting is to let everyone gather ideas and boldly raise them if you have any opinions."

After a while, Feng Jupo said: "Secretary Chen, I agree with the strike in Hong Kong. However, according to past experience, all workers who participated in the strike will have to return to the mainland. How do these hundreds of thousands of workers arrange their lives? And how much can we control in the Hong Kong trade union? Will other trade unions participate? These issues must be clarified before they start."

"Yes, this is not a question of tens of thousands of people. Among them, there are probably their families, and the number is likely to be as high as 300,000 to 400,000. How much does it cost to have so many people's food and clothing?" Yang Yin also felt that this problem was very difficult. At this time, the Soviet Union's aid was mainly aimed at the Guangdong government, that is, the Kuomintang, and the money was not much, and it was only a few million in total. The funds for China's top land were not worth mentioning at all.

Chen Yannian nodded. He also had a headache about this problem. He talked about this issue when he discussed launching a strike in Hong Kong with Deng Zhongxia, but no solution could be found at that time.

"This is a very important question, let's not talk about this issue for now. What other comrades have? " Chen Yannian decided to put it aside first. Solve the other problems first and then say: "Comrade Huang Mingcheng. What do you think?"

Huang Mingcheng's performance during the Eastern Expedition attracted the attention of the district party committee, especially Comrade Zhou Enlai, who served as the Secretary of the Military Commission. Zhou Enlai highly praised Huang Mingcheng's work in Zhangmutou. In the subsequent investigation, the Guangdong District Committee found that even under Chen Jiongming's rule, the Zhangmutou area workers' movement developed very rapidly, 90% of the workers participated in the trade union, and the party was high among the workers. More importantly, Huang Mingcheng not only developed the trade union, but also developed the farmers' association. He successfully formed the farmers' association in four townships around Zhangmutou. It was precisely this.

Basically, Huang Mingcheng could organize a team of workers to participate in the battle in the Battle of Zhangmutou. The team of workers to participate was highly praised by the Eastern Expedition Command after the war, which to a certain extent affected Chiang Kai-shek and Xu Chongzhi's attitude towards the development of the workers and peasants' movement in the regaining area. Chen Yannian therefore admired Huang Mingcheng very much. He insisted on transferring Huang Mingcheng to the Guangdong District Committee, and then sent him to assist Deng Zhongxia's work at the All-China Federation of Trade Unions. He also prepared to let him go to the Beijiang area to be responsible for the farming movement there soon. Today's meeting was also what he proposed to let Huang Mingcheng participate.

Chen Yannian named Huang Mingcheng and asked Huang Mingcheng to speak, but he posed a problem for Huang Mingcheng. Huang Mingcheng agreed to launch a strike in Hong Kong from the bottom of his heart, and he did not think that the issue of funding was very important. What was important was whether such a large-scale strike could be launched.

"Secretary Chen, I think the funding can be solved. The key is to launch the strike. But I don't know the situation of the Hong Kong trade union, and how many party members my party has among the workers? How many trade unions can it control? I don't know these situations."

Chen Yannian felt that he was negligent. In fact, not only Huang Mingcheng did not understand the situation of the Hong Kong trade union, except for Su Zhaozheng of the Hong Kong Staff Union, the other people here are probably Deng Zhongxia, but Deng Zhongxia only learned a little during the meeting some time ago. The real situation is probably not very detailed.

"I was negligent. Let me do this, Comrade Su Zhaozheng, please introduce the situation of the Hong Kong Trade Union to you."

Su Zhaozheng is a new party member and has not had a party membership for half a year, but he has a deep qualification. He participated in the Tongmenghui and later joined the Kuomintang and led the Hong Kong Seaman Strike. He is the head of the Hong Kong Seaman Union. He has a dark face and speaks powerfully.

"Okay, let me introduce to you the situation of the Hong Kong trade union. There are many Hong Kong trade unions, with more than a hundred, mainly industry trade unions, divided into three major factions; the largest is the Federation of Trade Unions, including more than seventy trade unions, mostly handicrafts, and the Sea Employees Union is a major industrial trade union; the second is the Federation of Chinese Trade Unions, including thirty trade unions, which are also handicrafts, and the important one is only tram trade unions; the remaining are about twenty trade unions, and they do not form factions, but they are mostly large trade unions, such as machines, cargo, coal, Westernization, etc.."

"There are not many party members among Hong Kong workers, less than ten, most of them are dock workers. Except for the Seaside Union, there is no leadership. In fact, even the Seaside Union, his president is not a member of our party, but our party has a strong influence."

After Su Zhaozheng's introduction, the originally optimistic mood completely disappeared

The strikes in the mainland in the past two years were launched in areas with relatively strong party strength, with less party organizations... Everyone felt completely unsure whether workers could be encouraged to strike.

Seeing that everyone was feeling a little depressed, Chen Yannian asked Su Zhaozheng: "Do you think you can organize a strike in Hong Kong?"

"Of course," Su Zhaozheng said loudly without hesitation: "When the seafarers strike, we organized a general alliance strike, with as many as 100,000 workers participating in the strike. After the seafarers strike, the workers realized that only by uniting can the living conditions of workers be improved. Although our party has a small number, our party has a high prestige, especially the current wave of opposition to imperialism that swept across the country, which is conducive to our work. I am confident to launch the strike."

"Well, comrades, we cannot only see difficulties, not the current political climate." Deng Zhongxia stood up excitedly and said: "Since the Five Events, the surging protests in various places have shown that the revolution is coming. We must seize the opportunity. We cannot view the Hong Kong general strike in isolation. We should regard it as part of the national anti-imperialist movement. Our party should bravely stand up and lead this revolution. The Hong Kong general strike can strengthen the leadership of our party."

Deng Zhongxia waved his hand down excitedly: "Comrades, I know that our party is very weak in Hong Kong, but Hong Kong workers have the tradition of bravery in fighting. I believe that the general strike can be launched and will surely win in the end."

"Yes, we can ask the provincial government to provide part of the funding, and we can also organize the support part of the mainland workers, and we can try to solve the part ourselves." Huang Mingcheng stood up and said when he was infected.

Huang Mingcheng's proposal made Chen Yannian's eyes lit up. Shi Bu also said that some workers could be organized to work in the Guangzhou factory. Yang Yin proposed to establish a strike command center in Guangzhou to be responsible for coordinating the actions of various trade unions.

After solving several major issues, the meeting quickly moved into consultation on details.

The sound of Shao Lizi entering the house interrupted Zhuang Jihua's "speech". Shao Lizi is the newly appointed secretary-general of the military academy and is not very familiar with Zhuang Jihua. After entering the door, he saw Zhuang Jihua standing there with his back facing Chiang Kai-shek, and Chiang Kai-shek was not angry at all, and he couldn't help but be a little stunned.

Zhuang Jihua nodded to Shao Lizi first to say hello, then turned around and said to Chiang Kai-shek: "Principal, I have roughly figured it out."

"Okay, give me a report as soon as possible." Chiang Kai-shek paused and said, "You go to the Political Department first, there is a copy of your appointment there."

Zhuang Jihua was a little surprised. Why don’t I be an adjutant when he was newly appointed? What should I do?

With a lot of questions, Zhuang Jihua came to the Political Department. Before he could enter the door, he heard a noise inside. When he pushed the door, he saw that there were many people. Zeng Kuoxiang, Hu Zongnan, Jiang Xianyun, Chen, Huang Cai, Li Mo'an and others were all there. Seeing Hu Zongnan made him a little surprised.

These people were all surprised when they saw that Zhuang Jihua came in. Chen first jumped over, grabbed his hand and said, "Cultural Revolution, thank you for your hard work, come in and sit in." As he said that, he pulled Zhuang Jihua into the office, then pressed him on the chair, and then smiled and said to everyone: "Students, let's first congratulate Zhuang Wenge on his promotion;" He stopped deliberately, and then dragged his accent and said, "Become the first major spy in the school."

As soon as Chen finished speaking, Zhuang Jihua almost jumped up. Big spy? The intelligence work was under the charge of himself. How did Chen know? Boom, Jiang Xianyun, Hu Zongnan and others immediately laughed. It seemed that there was no malice. Zhuang Jihua looked at them inexplicably. He had a ghost in his heart, and his face was a little angry: "Chen, what were you talking about? I am a big spy, I think you are the big spy. He has a scathing eyebrows and no makeup is needed, he is completely a villain."

Chen Haha laughed and said, "A person like me who is so handsome and elegant, when walking on the street, others will know that this person is knowledgeable. Why? He is handsome and gentle. Even if he is a spy, he is definitely a cultural spy. He doesn't look like the Cultural Revolution. He looks honest, but he is actually full of bad water."

Zhuang Jihua was a little overwhelmed. Why did Chen say this to his secrets all the time? Jiang Xianyun smiled and said to Zhuang Jihua: "Are you looking for Director Zhou?" Zhuang Jihua nodded, and Jiang Xianyun smiled and said: "Director Zhou is opposite. Are you looking for Director Zhou to ask for someone?"

Zhuang Jihua was a little confused. If he wanted someone, who he wanted? Seeing that Zhuang Jihua didn't look like he pretended to be fake, Jiang Xianyun asked, "Don't you know yet?"

"What do you know?"

"You have been appointed as the head of the headquarters' intelligence section, responsible for forming the intelligence section."

Zhuang Jihua suddenly realized, and then he didn't understand what Chiang Kai-shek meant? Wasn't the intelligence department very good at the beginning? Why did he show his signature? His activities are in trouble.

Zhuang Jihua calmed down his emotions, looked at Chen, and said seriously: "Well, I want to make a report and transfer Chen into the intelligence department." After that, he twisted and walked towards the door, clamped his throat and said, "Dear officials, I will invite you great gods."

After saying that, Zhuang Jihua opened the door and left quickly, quiet for a moment, and then burst into laughter.
