Back to the Republic of China as a commander

List of nine members of the Standing Committee of the National Socialist Party Central Committee: Sun Wen, Wang Longzhong, Wang Zhenyu, Zhang Taiyan, Hu Hanmin, Xu Chongzhi, Zhou Zhiyun, Liao Zhongkai, Chen Jiongming.

List of members of the Central Committee: Wang Jingwei, Chen Gongbo, Zhou Lan, Li Buwei, Zeng Qi, Zhou Lan, Xie Chi, Zou Lu, Li Liejun and other 117 people.

Central departments: Li Buwei, head of the Organization Department, Wang Chunling, head of the Propaganda Department, Zeng Qi, head of the Youth Department, Zhou Lan, head of the Disciplinary Investigation Department, known as the Four Departments.In addition, there are small ministries such as the Ministry of Women, the Ministry of Agriculture and Industry.

The publication of these three lists of personnel basically announced the establishment of the Nationalist Government, and also announced that the National Socialist Party had since entered the stage of Chinese history and politics as the ruling party.

Chapter 279 National Government ([-])

The publication of the three lists directly affects the future political direction of the entire China. Only the parties involved know that these three lists are the result of games between each other.

By this time, Sun Yat-sen no longer pretended to be magnanimous, and almost all positions were contested.In his words to comrades in the party, the revolution has almost won now, and it is time for us to reap the fruits of the revolution.

For this reason, negotiators from both sides were arguing almost every day until Wang Zhenyu came to talk in person.The way of talking was also very unique. The first one was to talk about the list of the government. After a general look, he didn’t make any changes, so he directly told Hu Hanmin that it was all right, and he would follow this list.As a result, Yang Yongtai and the others looked at Wang Zhenyu dumbfounded, unable to say a word.Next came the party affairs. Sun Yat-sen didn't want much, and naturally there were many things that could be given up under the number one position.So Wang Zhenyu was unambiguous and agreed.The last one is about the army. Wang Zhenyu said very bachelorly: "The previous ones are all according to your orders, and the army has to be under my orders, otherwise all the previous discussions will be invalidated."

At this time, the weakness of the bourgeoisie of Sun Yat-sen, Hu Hanmin and others came out. How much benefit they have gained from the government, how willing to tear it all down and start over.So despite all reluctance, Wang Zhenyu finally passed the list of military committees by means.If Sun Wen, who has gained a lot, is still dissatisfied, it is that the power of the chairman of the military committee is astonishing. This organization has money, soldiers, and an independent personnel system. I am afraid it will be difficult to control in the future!

And Zhang Taiyan pointed out sharply when drinking tea with Zhu Rui, Cai Yuanpei and other veterans of the Restoration Society in private that Wang Zhenyu, who will control the army in the future, will be the most detached existence in the national government. No matter which faction wants to be in power, it must have him Support, although this is not ** but it is better than **.

On April 4th, at Xuanwu Lake in Nanjing, Huang Xing was sworn in as the chairman of the National Government. Li Yuanhong, who was in charge of appointing and supervising the oath, half-jokingly said to Huang Xing: "It was the same scene in Wuhan five years ago. Can do it again."

Huang Xing coughed a few times and said, "President, this is probably what the Buddhists said."

Li Yuanhong smiled and said: "Fate is natural, but brother Keqiang, you and I will be separated from each other in the future, we still need to support each other a lot!"

"That's natural. The more stable your position is, President, the more peaceful our country will be."

To say that the most miraculous thing today is Wang Jingwei. Under Sun Wen's efforts, this kid became the mayor of Nanjing City. In addition, Lu Gongwang, the commander of the Nanjing Garrison District, also belongs to Sun Wen's camp.Although Yu Zuobai, the fifth division of Wang Zhenyu's direct line, was also stationed outside Nanjing, but relying on the garrison area and the city government, basically Sun Wen's family in Nanjing had a guarantee of safety.And this time, Wang Jingwei, who was appointed as the mayor of Nanjing just after returning to China, naturally became full of ambition in this fairly good political environment. In his own words, he wanted to make some contributions to the country's construction.

People from all walks of life, from all walks of life, from all walks of life, attended the inauguration ceremony, and Huang Xing, the protagonist, was undoubtedly the busiest one. After delivering his inaugural speech, he had to move to his office.There are more than 80 personnel orders that need to be signed by him one by one.

At this moment, no matter which faction you belong to, no matter whether there was a festival or not in the past, everyone's faces are filled with happy smiles.The Nanjing Air Force Flight Training Brigade just formed by Wang Zhenyu also flew to Xuanwu Lake for an air show, and there will be a grand fireworks show here at night.In short, Wang Zhenyu allocated 1 million Chinese yuan for the national government in one go, and everyone can spend the money with pride.

In Beijing, the news of the establishment of the Nationalist Government was transmitted here early in the morning. Although Duan Qirui, the current acting prime minister and soon to be the chief of the army, knew that such a day would come and prepared psychologically, but when he arrived When this happened, his nose was immediately crooked.

In Dongjiaomin Lane, British Minister Zhu Erdian invited French Minister Kant to have morning tea.

"Mr. Kant, the national government has really been established. Do you think we really want to hand over the customs of the nine southern provinces to this damned local government according to the agreement? And they don't need to pay compensation! If the hateful The Japanese know about it, and they probably will protest again," Zhu Erdian said lazily.

Kant took a sip of the milk tea and frowned subconsciously. To be honest, the British milk tea is a bit bitter because the tea is more than milk, but the French milk tea tastes better: "What should we do? If we break the appointment now, the 300 million tons Steel that is [-] percent cheaper than the Yankees is out of reach. If I do this, the country will soon send a new ambassador to replace me. Dear Mr. Zhu Erdian, I think you are the same."

Hearing this, Zhu Erdian showed a helpless wry smile: "It's all caused by the damn Germans. The war ruined everything. I really can't imagine when it started. These barbaric orientals are actually qualified to sit Come down and negotiate terms with our British Empire."

Kant smacked his lips in a very ungentlemanly way: "Let's stop complaining about this, and try to find a way to contribute to that damn war in Europe as soon as possible, you know? My wife's nephew was in Vanguard last month. My wife was crying all night. Damn, that lad, I remember, was a very good winemaker, and he made Bordeaux wines I'm sure you'll love too, Mister Jurdin, but he's dead now Oh, those damned Germans, God will never forgive them."

Zhu Erdian shook the milk tea that had bottomed out in his hand and said: "The contract still needs to be fulfilled, I have a preliminary idea, maybe we can send the Chinese to the battlefield to win this damn war for us, and we All that is required is a little money. I have reported to Whitehall, what do you think, my dear Kant."

Kant snapped his fingers: "Haha, I also don't think we should just send some Chinese laborers. In fact, I have received reports from several officers of the observation regiment. They said that the tactical quality of the troops of the warlord named Wang Zhenyu can even bear the burden." The war in Europe, the premise is that there is enough equipment."

Zhu Erdian nodded: "The next step is to see what the domestic side has to say, but I am still very worried. If these barbaric orientals have strong military power, will they become the second Japan? It will eventually affect us Europeans in the world. interests here."

Kant said with a smile: "Then let the Japanese keep an eye on them. Isn't it good that they are our watchdogs? We no longer have to transport troops from far away Europe to fight an indigenous war."

Zhu Erdian put down the milk tea. Isn't this French guy talking about the traditional continental check-and-balance policy of the British Empire?Recently, because of the European War, the Japanese have become more and more disobedient.Although they were still following the British Empire like a dog, they were no longer the pugs before, but a wolfhound, and would bite back at their masters whenever they were not in order.Therefore, from the perspective of safeguarding the interests of the British Empire, it is also in the interests of the British Empire to moderately support China so that it can check with Japan. The premise is to grasp a degree.

Thinking of this, Zhu Erdian made up his mind and said: "The customs in the south should be returned to the Nationalist Government from May [-]st, as a congratulatory gift from us. In addition, we still need to talk to General Wang Zhenyu, who is actually in charge of the Nationalist Government, as soon as possible. , we should cooperate in more areas, including against the Germans."

In order to avoid provoking the Japanese, the national government has always been in contact with the French, so this plan is no exception.

Kant nodded and said, "No problem, but I have a question, my friend, how many Chinese soldiers do you plan to arm?"

Zhu Erdian shook his head and said: "It's still too early to say this question, I don't know the answer, but if I were the chief of Whitehall, I would hope that the number would be as high as possible, preferably enough to bury all the Germans , anyway, the last thing this barbaric country lacks is population.”

After the inauguration ceremony, Wang Zhenyu plans to return to Wuhan, where he will personally preside over the awarding and honoring ceremonies for the officers.For example, Wang Kewen, Zhang Zizhong, Zhao Yong and others who performed outstandingly in this war of protecting the country will all be awarded the Medal of Light.But Huang Xing and Sun Wen stopped him: "Wen Zheng, this government has also been established, and all work will start soon. If you go to Wuhan, wouldn't it be very troublesome for us to ask you for something?"

As soon as Wang Zhenyu heard it, he knew that it was a polite remark. These bosses were eager to get out of their own shadows, so there was no way they would be reluctant to go by themselves.As for blocking myself now, it is estimated that the matter of customs is still taken back.

Wang Zhenyu shook his head sincerely and said: "We had an agreement at the beginning of the merger. I only care about the military. Our country is so big and has so many talents. Is it possible that Wang Zhenyu can't do it without me? As long as you let go of power, you can deal with many things. If you work together, you can do it well.”

Huang Xing nodded and asked again: "What about the goal? Revolutionary work must have a goal, right? The goal is to make the country rich and the people strong, but it's too big. We must unify the short-term goal."

Sun Wen quickly added: "There must be an explanation for a series of things including customs!"

Wang Zhenyu smiled: "Okay, okay, I'll stay for a few more days and solve all these problems before leaving. But I have a condition, the two of you will also be honored to participate in the awarding ceremony in Wuhan. How about it?"

Huang Xing looked at Wang Zhenyu and smiled at Sun Wen: Sun Wen, look at this kid who is already the commander of hundreds of thousands of troops and is negotiating terms with us. . . "

Chapter 280 National Government ([-])

"What? Joining the war?" Hu Hanmin exclaimed. . .

Today is April 4, and President Li Yuanhong will leave Nanjing early tomorrow morning, and take a boat to Pukou across the river to take a car.Hu Hanmin has already arranged a float to send the President to Beijing.On the eve of farewell, of course there was going to be a big banquet. Li Yuanhong was full of ambition. This time he went to Beijing was different from the last time. Last time he was visited by Lao Yuan and Duan Qirui. This time he brought 28 yuan. The confidant Hubei Army and the national government promised to go to Beijing with a special presidential fee of 400 million yuan per year.He was determined to do something, so at the banquet, he slaughtered all directions, and anyone who came to toast him was always welcome.

The banquet lasted until after nine o'clock in the evening. President Li Yuanhong returned to the station to rest in satisfaction amidst the sound of congratulations from everyone.However, Wang Zhenyu kept Huang Xing, Sun Wen, Hu Hanmin, Zhang Taiyan, and Wang Longzhong in a small house, because he had just received a telegram from the British and French consulates in Shanghai that the British and French governments agreed to follow the original agreement on May [-]. Handed over to the customs of the nine southern provinces to the national government.

This is a great thing. The national government has only been established for a few days, and it has achieved such a major victory in diplomacy.Huang Xing, who was already a bit drunk, immediately shouted excitedly to his son Huang Yiou to bring wine, so scared that Wang Zhenyu quickly dissuaded him: "Mr. Ke Qiang, your liver is not good, and drunkenness hurts your liver. If you can't drink, don't drink it." And I have something more important to tell you later, so Yiou, go down and guard the door."

Huang Yiou is more than one year younger than Wang Zhenyu, and he is quite capable in handling affairs. His current position is the captain of the chairman's guard.He nodded and went out, guarding the door together with the guards of several other big brothers, preventing strangers from approaching.

Wang Zhenyu tried his best to keep himself calm, because what he was going to state next was related to national policy and was very important, so he had to state it clearly and get the support of the few big figures in the party in front of him.

"The national government is established, and the customs will take it back on the first day of May. I mean, the Minister of Foreign Affairs Wang Zhengting will go to Shanghai to sign it. We big guys don't have to go. Because there are two big things that need our attention. .”

Sun Wen asked curiously: "Wenzheng, what is the big deal, you have said it twice, we are all very curious."

Zhang Taiyan also thought for a while and said, "I really can't think of anything more important than us taking back the customs right now?"

Wang Longzhong smiled to defuse the embarrassing atmosphere and said, "My eldest nephew likes to keep things secret. Tell me, our brothers are waiting impatiently." Wang Longzhong is probably the most inexplicable one among them. Completely withdrew from the stage of history, but was pushed to the position of full-time vice chairman of the National Government by his nephew.What made him very depressed was that this transferred vice-chairman was very characteristic. He knew all the secrets, but he basically had no decision-making power.

Wang Zhenyu sat up straight and said: "It's actually like this. When we were negotiating with the French, they proposed two cooperation projects. These two projects are very beneficial to us. Hmm..."

Seeing that Wang Zhenyu was hesitant, Huang Xing leaned back on the sofa and said, "Go on, we are all our own people here."

Wang Zhenyu plucked up his courage and said: "That's right, the French suggested that we send labor to France. Everyone knows that the French lost a lot of labor because of the European War. Just kidding, French women need men very much now. So The French plan to import a large number of cheap laborers from us, on the condition that each worker pays us fifty dollars, and the dollar has been relatively strong recently, and this worker is also paid in France.”

"Then our Chairman Wang, how many workers do we need to send there?" Hu Hanmin was the first to jump out and question.

"50 to 100 million" Wang Zhenyu plans to get 500 million to 5000 million US dollars back at once.

Hu Hanmin asked in amazement: "But where can we find so many laborers who are willing to leave their homes? And what is the difference between this and selling piglets?"

Wang Zhenyu nodded and said: "Let me explain first, this is not selling piglets, but the export of international labor services. Finding so many laborers is another matter. Don't worry, Bray will come in."

After hearing the sound, Chen Bulei opened the door and came in, and handed several documents to the big guys.

Hu Hanmin took a closer look: "Outline of the Land Reform Law".

"We plan to carry out land reform in the countryside. All the land will be nationalized in the form of land debt, and then distributed to farmers who need to cultivate for life through the fisherman's associations in various places. At the same time, we are in the Jianghan Plain, Dongting Lake Plain and Poyang Lake Plain. It is planned to build three large-scale military reclamation farm areas, and the grain output in these three places will be used as national grain reserves. But the result of this is that a large number of rural laborers will lose their land and easily become refugees, becoming an important factor of social instability." Wang Zhenyu said seriously: "So we have to provide employment opportunities for these more than 200 million farmers. On the one hand, we will carry out industrial construction in central cities, such as Wuhan, Nanjing, Shanghai, etc., to absorb these labor forces. But I Please note that the construction of industry needs at least two to three years, and mature skilled workers are needed. So my opinion is to send the laborers out. I plan that the European War will take about two years. In time, they become skilled workers, and when they come back, they can become urban industrial workers.”
