Chapter two hundred and forty-ninth the government shows favor
When he learned that the Xinsi Army had successfully broken through the blockade line and arrived at Gushi, where the junction of the South River in Huizhou, Chairman Jiang, who was far away in the mountain city, said that he wanted to engage in military law with Gu Zhutong, who had let the Xinsi Army go. However, when he heard that Gu Zhutong was already on the way to the mountain city and said that there was an important military aircraft to report, Chairman Jiang was a little relieved. He also wanted to hear what reason was there to explain the reason for letting the Xinsi Army go this time.
All forces that have been paying attention to the confrontation between the two parties, and learned that this matter was so thunderous and rainy, it was because Gu Zhutong took into account the overall situation and did not order the National Party troops to block the attack. This made Gu Zhutong's reputation in China improve a lot. So when he arrived at the government, Chairman Jiang, who had been angry before, almost disappeared.
Of course, the reason why Chairman Jiang's anger was completely eliminated was that many people gave Gu Zhu and the overall situation to the overall situation, and they also divided some Kuomintangs that gave the public support to the public, which also benefited a lot. Of course, Chairman Jiang also gained a lot of benefits. Secondly, it was useless to be angry, because the Xinsi Army, which entered the Dabie Mountains near Gushi, had successfully joined the troops supported by the Eighth Route Army. This means that in the territory of Nanhe, the Kuomintang has already done nothing to do with this force. Since this is the case, what's the use of Chairman Jiang's anger?
Until Gu Zhutong arrived at the Presidential Palace and told Chairman Jiang about the situation at that time. When he learned that the Militia Corps had intervened in the operation to release the Xinsi Army, Chairman Jiang was about to scold the Militia Corps, but Gu Zhutong's words forced him to swallow the anger in his heart again.
When he heard Gu Zhutong personally dealing with the flying eagle that was becoming more and more powerful, and bluntly speaking, the National Government Protective Team responsible for protecting him safety, when he met these flying eagles, he was afraid that he would lose more and win less, Chairman Jiang couldn't help but sigh: "This man named Deng jumped out of there? Not only did he pull up such a powerful army in just a few years, he could also train such a powerful army. It's really hard to understand!"
Facing Chairman Jiang's sigh, Gu Zhutong continued: "Sir. Shu Beizhi said bluntly that it is necessary for us to improve our relationship with this militia force. Although the situation of the domestic war of resistance is still slightly superior, the Japanese are willing to assert. Once the Japanese are driven out of the country, with the current development speed of this militia force, it is still unclear who will be in charge of China in the future.
Before we can't stop the other party from developing, it's best not to make the relationship between the two sides too rigid. He can deal with the Gui army, Jin army, and the People's Army in business. Can't we do business with them? Anyway, our troops are also in urgent need of weapons and ammunition. It would be better to hand over these orders to the Militia Corps if they give the money to purchase arms to foreigners.
At least as far as I know, the weapons produced by the militia arsenal are no worse than those produced by foreign factories. Compared with their warlord troops, we have nominal advantages, and our funds are stronger than them. I don’t believe that this militia arbitrage will turn a blind eye to our show of kindness.
As long as we have a good relationship with them, we will not face the joint efforts of the militia corps and the People's Party after the war of resistance ends in the future. Of course, this is just a simple point of view of the humble position, and it depends on how the commissioner considers it."
Although this is a bit like killing oneself and making others more ambitious, Chairman Jiang also admitted that the strength of the militia corps now can be said to have surpassed the Kuomintang. Although the provinces liberated by the militia corps are all provinces with a small population, there have been a wave of immigration in some provinces near North China. It can be imagined that if we continue like this, the north of China will inevitably become the center of China in the future. Faced with the Japanese army with a significantly stronger strength than them, Chairman Jiang is indeed a little powerless to kill the thief!
The leader of a country actually wanted to please a local warlord. This feeling made Chairman Jiang really frustrated. When Chairman Jiang began to think about whether Gu Zhutong's words made sense, Mrs. Jiang, who brought him tea, learned about his confusion, he said calmly: "Darling, I think Zhutong's words are not unreasonable. From my visit to the US Lijian this time, those US government officials no longer supported us as much as before when we went there to raise funds.
You may not know that my friend in the US Senate revealed a secret to me. The US Lijian government has already had the idea of stopping military aid to us in view of our failure on the battlefield of the Anti-Japanese War. Many people even suggested that even if we continue to aid our war of resistance, the targets of aid will likely become that militia unit.
Because Deng Chenggong had a high prestige in Meijian, the reputation of the civilian general in China was known to anyone who found Meijian there. Moreover, the Shenlong potion they developed helped countless Meijian people get rid of the torture of illness, so that his prestige has surpassed me, the first lady of China.
If you don’t make any moves, Zhu Tong’s future concerns may become a reality. What’s more, for us, it can express the goodwill of the government and reduce the expenses for purchasing arms. Why are you reluctant to make up your mind because of a face issue?"
This first lady of the Republic of China, who also enjoyed a reputation in later generations, was also very famous in the eyes of American Lijian politicians. As the first Chinese to deliver a Chinese-English speech on the White House, she still has a certain relationship with the political circles of American Lijian , so that every time she raises funds, she is the representative sent by the government.
However, as Deng Chenggong, the reputation of the militia corps gradually began to be established in Meimeilijian, and Deng Chenggong also cooperated with Meilijian for hundreds of millions of dollars. For Meilijian, there was undoubtedly a latecomer. So when Song Meiling arrived in Meilijian this time and raised war funds again, local Chinese businessmen and American Lijian members did not support her initiatives as before.
If Gu Zhutong's words only made Chairman Jiang feel embarrassed, then what this wife said made Chairman Jiang completely disappointed. Once the government, which needs foreign financial assistance, loses external financial assistance, relying solely on some of the current income controlled by the government, the government cannot maintain the expenses of its subordinates. Compared with the prosperous business of the militia corps, their government will also be willing to lose money in making money.
It was precisely because of what he said today that Chairman Jiang gradually let go of his anger towards the militia corps and took as much as possible to guard against the militia corps. Although he now admits that the strength of the national government is worse than that of the militia corps, in Chairman Jiang's view, as long as he can recover the lost land in the southeast, the wealth of the southeast provinces may not be able to compete with the militia corps in the north. But when his strength is slightly worse, he feels that it is no big deal to tolerate one or two for the time being.
Chairman Jiang, who was mentally prepared for temporary tolerance, soon sent Gu Zhutong to the National Government to go to the Militia Corps to express his expectations for improving relations with the National Government.
Although Deng Chenggong did not understand the other party's purpose, he met with him at the Wolf Base. When he learned that the Kuomintang had also paid money to ask him for purchasing guns and ammunition, Deng Chenggong was a little shocked, and he also saw that the government seemed to want to express kindness.
Youdao is to stretch out your hands and not hit people with a smile. Deng Chenggong is naturally treated with such people who give money to the militia corps, saying that Gu Zhutong would prepare the guns and ammunition purchased on behalf of the government government as soon as possible. Deng Chenggong thought that the mountain city has often been visited by Japanese planes recently. It was rare to be generous. For the first time, in the name of the militia commander-in-chief, the government asked the government to donate anti-aircraft guns and anti-aircraft machine guns from an air defense battalion.
Seeing that Deng Chenggong was so easy to talk to, Gu Zhutong was very glad that he had come to the right place. The purchase list of infantry weapons of the main division they received this time was only a few million. But Deng Chenggong gave them such a free aid.
You should know that the State Administration of Air Defense Weapons is really in urgent need. But not only the funds purchased and consumed from abroad, even if it is transported into the mountain city, it is a problem. Now, with the air defense weapons from an air defense battalion given by the Militia Corps, it can still play a significant role in the air defense of the mountain city.
Buy one and get one free. This meeting undoubtedly improved the relationship between the two sides quickly. The Kuomintang troops who were active in Nanhe and Sandong, and it was soon obvious that the grassroots militia troops who had never been good to them before seemed to have become easier to talk to. Sometimes they were even willing to do some business with them in private. When fighting Japanese devils, once the Kuomintang troops progressed poorly, the militia troops would even help to help. This was impossible to change to the two sides without this meeting.
When the air defense weapons of a battalion of the Militia Corps were transferred to the mountain city, Chairman Jiang, who had received a telegram from several commanders on the North China border, finally admitted that he was really too cautious. He thought that the militia Corps was wearing a pair of pants with the People's Party, but now it seems that the other party is really non-partisan. For the domestic anti-Japanese forces, they really follow their words: Whoever is good to the Militia Corps will be good to the Militia Corps. Aren't these free air defense weapons in front of him verified this sentence?
The People's Party has no big objection to the National Party and the Militia Corps. After all, the Militia Corps is dealing with them, and its attitude towards implementation is better than that of the National Party. As long as everyone is dedicated to fighting against Japan, the People's Party will naturally be willing to abandon its original prejudices. It is the most important thing that everyone works together to fight the Japanese away.
For a time, the entire Chinese anti-Japanese war forces seemed to have really begun to become united and joined forces to deal with the Japanese who invaded China. The Japanese who invaded China could not bear this change.
The war they expected would be incredible, and as they extended the war in China, there was a serious shortage of troops. In order to stabilize their occupation in China, the Japanese had to start to relax the age of recruitment. Even some middle-aged Japanese people in their thirties and forties were recruited into the army. If this continues, Japan will eventually enter the moment of destruction.
When they realized that all this was caused by the militia corps that started in North China, the Japanese Army Headquarters began to concentrate most of China's troops to liberate this abominable militia corps first. But when they convened the generals stationed in China for a meeting and discussion, the commander of the Kwantung Army and the commander of the North China Front Army felt that unless they gave up their occupied areas in the southeastern provinces of China, the North China Front Army and the Kwantung Army would join forces, they would be afraid that they would not be able to take down the militia corps in one fell swoop.
Moreover, once a war breaks out, with the temper of the militia corps, they will really send troops to the Northeast. By then, they will build the rear of the three northeastern provinces, and there will be a bad situation of economic regression. For the invaders of China, who are in short supply of resources and need support from the three northeastern provinces, they are afraid that if they are not careful, they will face a situation of losing everything.
Seeing that this tactic did not work, finally considering that the Kuomintang in the southeastern provinces of China seemed easy to bully, and the government that hidden the mountain city was nominal capital of China. Perhaps only by eliminating all the resistance forces in the southeastern provinces could they safely transfer the troops from the south to the north, cooperate with the North China Front Army and the Kwantung Army to siege the militia corps. Only by solving the militia corps at one time will China really become their rear garden since it was.
It was this strategic decision made by the Japanese army that gave the militia corps the most valuable time to develop, so that before the Japanese army could eliminate the resistance of China in the southeast, the militia corps began to sweep the Japanese troops in northern China, causing the Japanese army to gradually enter the abyss of death.
