After the commissioner sat down, he ordered his staff to pour Liang Xiao a cup of tea, and said, "Sit down and talk."
"Yes."
Liang Xiao sat down according to his words.
"You just came back from Jiangnan, what's the situation there now?"
asked the commissioner.
Liang Xiao thought for a while, and said: "A thousand wastes are waiting to be revived. Due to the war, the Songhu area generally suffered a lot of losses. Thousands of acres of fertile land were turned into scorched earth, and the houses of the people were seriously damaged. Take Nanjing as an example. The streets are everywhere. There are ruins and houses that are about to collapse. The streets that used to be crowded with people now have few pedestrians and less than ten people, and there are refugees fleeing other places with their families..."
The head of the committee sighed, and said: "It's all the misfortune of the party and the country. It has suffered this catastrophe, and the people of the world have suffered."
Chapter 237 The Teacher's Talk
"Principal, the Songhu area is now in a state of waste, and the students implore the Executive Yuan to send more officials to various places as soon as possible to improve the local agricultural production. After all, we have to station troops in the Songhu area without the support of the local people. Just one item of military rations is... a big problem."
Liang Xiao said.
"I have urged the Executive Yuan on this matter, and they have sent officials to various places to take office. You, the acting head of Jiangsu Province, must do a good job in the civil affairs of the Songhu area, and at the same time, do a good job in the garrison work in the Songhu area."
The commissioner smiled kindly.
Liang Xiao's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly stood up and said, "Principal, the students have neither political talent nor experience, so they really can't bear the burden of acting as the head of Jiangsu Province. I implore the principal to choose another talented person. The students only want to lead troops to fight against the Japanese invaders." , Recover the lost land, defend the country.”
If the committee member glanced at him meaningfully, he said, "You have won so many victories in the Songhu area, and the people of Songhu respect you very much. It is beneficial for the political development of the Songhu area to have you as the head of Jiangsu Province. Don't give up."
How could Liang Xiao, I don't know, what the commissioner said was only for occasion, and he most tabooed generals who also lead the local military and political power.
"Principal, there are three reasons why the students did not take office. First, the students do not understand political affairs. They serve as the head of Jiangsu Province, which may delay local development. Second, the students have served as the deputy commander-in-chief of the third war zone, the commander-in-chief of the Beijing-Shanghai-Hangzhou garrison, and the No. 2 Sixth Army The commander-in-chief, who is entrusted by the party and the state and the principal, really has no energy to manage local government affairs. Third, the qualifications of the students are shallow, and the 20 army in hand has already caused the principal to be discussed. The principal's not."
Liang Xiao said loudly.
After hearing this, the commissioner nodded slowly and said: "You can think of this, which means you are not confused. Let me ask you, why didn't you report the purchase of fighter planes from Germany, why didn't you report the private mining, and why didn't you report the private military expansion? Open an arsenal, why don't you report it?"
The commissioner asked four consecutive questions, his voice was very severe, full of anger, if Liang Xiao could not give a satisfactory explanation, he would throw a tantrum at any time.
“第一,学生没有私自扩军,军政会授我淞沪募兵处之职,便于学生从当地招募兵员,这次淞沪决战,学生的No.20六集团军损失重大,20万部队,牺牲约4万多人,轻重伤兵约两万3000多人,部队减员近7万人7000,如果不在短时间内补充兵员,充实部队战斗力,下次日军进攻的时候,学生还能保得住淞沪地区吗”
"Secondly, buying fighter planes from Germany was a student's sudden idea. At that time, I didn't think of buying so many fighter jets at once. I thought about buying more than a dozen fighter jets to form an aviation bombing formation to raid the Japanese airport and make the Japanese army lose their air dominance. Once this happens, the students can let go of their hands and feet and have a big fight with the Japanese army.
"Thirdly, the students have never opened mines without permission, and all mines have been passed through reasonable procedures. If the principal does not believe it, the students will immediately order someone to send the procedures to Chongqing, please."
"Fourth, the student's brother is an ordnance engineer. He once studied abroad and opened a weapon workshop in his hometown Suzhou. The student passed by by chance. Seeing his knowledge and research on weapons, he recommended him to the army as a gun repairman. Later, the army expanded. More and more firearms were worn out in the battle, so he became a firearms repair department as a weapon repairman. At the end of the Songhu Battle last year, he left the army and went to Dayu Mountain to build an arsenal. In my heart, I never thought that he managed this arsenal so well that now he can produce a platoon of firearms and [-] rounds of ammunition every month, and he can also simply repair firearms and artillery. Of course, the firearms and ammunition he produces there , all need students to buy with real money.”
Liang Xiao explained so much in one breath, true and false, false and true, and the commissioner didn't follow behind his ass to watch, how could it be possible to distinguish so clearly.
Moreover, he also knew that the reason why the committee member asked this question was because the Central Command had whispered a lot of gossip in his ears, and the old man was dubious, so he blamed him.
After listening to his explanation, the committee member was silent for a while, and said: "Some people say that you acted arrogantly and domineeringly in the Songhu area.
"It's nonsense, it's pure slander, it's a deliberate spread of rumors to make trouble, the student has ever neglected human life, if the principal doesn't believe it, he can send someone to the Songhu area to investigate, if the student has neglected a human life, but let the principal dispose of it, there is nothing wrong with it."
Liang Xiao said rightly.
The committee member saw that what he said was so serious, so he knew that this matter was purely fabricated. He knew Liang Feiyu well. This point is still clear.
"I know about this matter, and I also understand that you are not the kind of person who cares about human life, but there are some things that you need to pay attention to. There are many rumors about you now. Some people say that you are secretly developing power and intending to seek evil. Some say that you intend to establish your own family, and others say that you colluded with the Japanese and acted for us... In short, the rumors are not good for you."
"I know in my heart that this is someone who deliberately provokes our relationship and the trust between me and you. When I was trapped in Xi'an, you sacrificed your life to save me. I still don't forget those days. Over the past two years, You have risen step by step from a colonel officer to the deputy commander of the theater, with the title of lieutenant general and general. ... jealousy, there is nothing I can do about you."
"I trust you Liang Feiyu [-]%. If you want money, I will give it. If you want soldiers, I will give it. If you want power, I will give it back. I treat you so well. Why do you want to be self-reliant? Moreover, with your qualifications and Prestige is not enough to stand on your own. Besides, the Songhu area was the site of the Fourth World War. The Japanese army wanted to open up the north-south passage. The Beijing-Shanghai-Hangzhou area must be taken... As long as you Liang Feiyu is not dizzy , you won’t stand on your own, and I have already nominated you as a candidate for the Central Supervisory Committee, and you will enter the decision-making ranks of the national government in the future.”
The committee member has said so much, there are two purposes, one is to tell Liang Xiao cryptically that he is promoting Liang Xiao to the decision-making level, so that he will not mistake himself, and the other is to tell him that he has [-]% trust in him and let him Don't worry about it.
Liang Xiao's expression was very natural, he understood every word the committee said, and he didn't have the will to stand on his own, let alone abandon the committee.
Chapter 238
Liang Xiao still believed in the words of the... Commissioner, but he was too disappointed by this decadent regime. From the Battle of Songhu to the decisive battle of Songhu a few days ago, the arrangements made by the top officials of the government for the people were really disappointing. When they got up, the officials left the people to run away, and the people fled without organization, without order, without subsidy and rescue, starving and dying everywhere, and the wailing was endless.
Therefore, he no longer has any hope for this decadent regime. Take the decisive battle in Shanghai a few days ago as an example. The government did not give him a single soldier, but gave him some weapons symbolically. From top to bottom, Everyone thought it was impossible for him to defend Nanjing, but no one thought that he not only defended the Songhu area, but also used offense as defense, regained all the towns in the Songhu area, annihilated the main force of the Japanese army in Central China, and wiped out the main force of the Central China Japanese army. The front army headquarters was blown into ruins, and Yan Junliu was buried under the ruins together with his staff and subordinates.
Now that Shanghai has been restored, some people in the national government are jealous, so they put eye drops on him in front of the committee, slander and frame him, and spread rumors to make trouble. Facing such a regime, he is really helpless.
"The principal loves me so much, and the students are very grateful."
Liang Xiao said rightly.
"I don't want your gratitude. Right now, the party and country are torn apart. I need you to conquer all directions and return the party and country to a stable and peaceful world."
Appointment Road.
"Yes, students must go all out."
Liang Xiao said loudly.
The commissioner signaled him to sit down: "You proposed to form two new armies. The military and political council discussed it, but it was not approved. There are three reasons. First, the Songhu area was ravaged by war, and the people were poor and weak Large-scale recruitment, moreover, if you recruit young people to serve as soldiers, who will plant thousands of miles of fertile land? 2. In this decisive battle in Songhu, the Japanese army suffered heavy losses. They will not attack the Songhu area in a short time. Three, Songhu There are already 20 troops in the region. If two more armies are formed, the strength will reach 30. For such a large army, the military expenditure alone is... a huge expenditure. For the current government, military expenditures are in short supply. , has almost reached the brink of collapse, and without foreign aid, our Central Army troops may run out of food."
"However, after careful consideration, I decided to give you a privilege. You are allowed to recruit [-] security guards in the Songhu area, and the military expenses will be allocated directly by the Military and Political Council, without the help of the third war zone."
Liang Xiao thought to himself that he had already recruited a new army in the Songhu area. If these 30 security guards were added, the force would be as high as [-].
For such a huge army, military expenditure is indeed a big problem, but he is not worried about military expenditure at all. There is a pharmaceutical factory, and a lot of gold is recorded in the account every day.
"Thank you principal, the students will immediately set up twenty security guards after they go back."
Liang Xiao said.
The committee member glanced at him and said: "Report to me as soon as possible in the future, don't wait for others to send your materials to me before you are willing to tell the truth."
After finishing speaking, he waved his hand, and Staff Officer Sun handed over a stack of materials to Liang Xiao.
Liang Xiao took the materials and looked at them, his face turned livid immediately. Three points and 3 points on the materials were true, and seven points were pure fabrications. He said that he disregarded human life, was domineering, colluded with the Japanese, and said that he was corrupt and raised in the house. Dozens of beautiful women, singing and singing every night... "Principal, the students really want to ask Director Chen face to face, what was going on in their minds when they came to these materials, saying that Mr. colluded with the Japanese and said that the students were corrupt Corruption, luxury, night.
These tricks to fool a three-year-old kid are used to fool you, and you will be a high-ranking official of the party and state in vain."
Liang Xiao is very.
"I don't believe a single word of the above. I only believe what I see. However, there is one thing that makes me very confused. Someone reported your beautiful concubine cloud. Is this true?"
asked the commissioner.
"The student does have four confidante, but they are not... concubines."
Liang Xiao said.
"As a senior general of the party and state, you have four confidante by your side, and I, the headmaster, don't even know about it."
There was a hint of displeasure in the committee member's voice.
"Principal, I'm sorry, the students don't want to hide from you, but they have something to say and don't know how to confess to you."
Liang Xiao was a little embarrassed, his four 44 confidante seemed to be wives of other people, except...Yang Xiuqiong was not married, the other three women were all married women.
"Tang Ying, the social queen of Shanghai Beach, Wang Yingxia, the most beautiful woman in Hangzhou, Hu Die, the queen of movies, and Yang Xiuqiong, my wife's goddaughter, yes."
The commissioner came slowly.
"What the principal said is very accurate, it is the four of them."
Liang Xiao admitted it cheekily.
"You know what you're doing. These...women are all ruined flowers and willows. If you bring them into the mansion, what do the outside world think of you, a famous general in the War of Resistance? Now there are rumors outside. Some people say that you don't like the pure and the clean. Women, only like other people's wives, you know what this means"
The commissioner reprimanded sharply.
"Students know, but students don't care. What is clear is clear, and what is turbid is turbid."
Liang Xiao doesn't care about gossip, anyway...he just needs to know what he's doing.
"You don't care, but the face of the party-state cannot be damaged."
The committee member was slightly annoyed, and said: "Go back this time, quickly send those women to Hong Kong or abroad, don't let them ruin your bright future."
"Principal, it's just a few women, they can't ruin the future of the students."
Liang Xiao kept these women by his side, of course he had a need, and if he sent them to Hong Kong or abroad, who would solve his needs.
"Since ancient times, how many heroes have died because of confidante, let alone Wu Sangui and Li Zicheng in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, all because of Chen Yuanyuan, who brought disaster to the country and the people, leading to the defeat of King Chuang and the entry into the Qing Dynasty. Wu Sangui was also born because of this woman. Willing to be the eagle dog of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, leaving a bad reputation for thousands of years, don't you want to be the second Wu Sangui?"
Appointment Road.
"The students are not Wu Sangui, they are not Chen Yuanyuan, they are just ordinary women."
Liang Xiao said.
"For the sake of a few women, you won't even listen to me"
The committee members were furious.
"No, principal, please listen to the students' explanation. These women have their own uses. For example, Tang Ying, the queen of communication, can help students deal with some social situations. For example, Wang Yingxia, the food she cooks is better, such as Hu Die, She can sing and dance, like Yang Xiuqiong..."
When Liang Xiao said this, he suddenly realized that he didn't seem to know what Yang Xiuqiong was good at.
"It's nonsense, you are a senior general of the party and state, not a local warlord, why are you doing this to a woman?"
The committee member slammed the table and shouted: "I don't care, all these messy women have to be sent away, and no one is allowed to stay."
Liang Xiao's mouth was full of bitterness, this is his private matter, so should the committee take care of his private affairs "Principal, students..."
"Get out."
The commissioner slammed his cane hard, turned around angrily and left.
"headmaster......."
Liang Xiao wanted to catch up and explain, but was stopped by Staff Officer Sun, "General Liang, the chairman is getting angry. Don't contradict him. Tell him if you have anything to do. The chairman is very reasonable."
Staff Officer Sun persuaded.
Chapter 239 What the principal said makes sense
The chairman is reasonable Liang Xiao never thinks so, the committee member is very stubborn in certain things, his stubbornness makes him a little speechless, even though he is now advocating a new life, he has not banned three wives and four concubines, what's the matter with how many women he accepts? If you don't see it, Fan Shaozeng has a lot of wives and concubines, there must be at least three or forty people,,, and Yang Sen of the Sichuan Army, their wives and concubines have at least two or thirty people,,, compared with them, he is insignificant and not worth mentioning.
"General Liang, the chairman of the committee is in a fit of anger. You should go and admit your mistake to him, and the matter will be over. Now is the time for the whole people to resist the war. It is not appropriate to have conflicts between you and the committee, otherwise those people outside will watch the fun. "
Staff Officer Sun persuaded earnestly.
"I know."
Liang Xiao let out a long breath, walked up to the second floor, came to the door of the study, and knocked lightly twice.
after awhile.
The committee member's voice came from the study: "Come in."
Liang Xiao pushed the door open and entered, stood at attention and said: "Principal, it is really wrong for students to make you angry."
"You are not making me angry, you are joking about your own future. Now the party and the country are in a time of crisis, and when heroes emerge in large numbers, I hope you can devote your mind to saving the party and the country from the crisis, and don't waste your mind on women. , Since ancient times, beauty has been a disaster, isn't the painful lesson dripping with blood enough to wake you up?"
The commissioner said sadly.
"Everything the principal said makes sense. The students made a mistake. After returning home, the students sent them abroad."
Liang Xiao admitted his mistake very sincerely.
Hearing what he said, the committee member's face softened a little, and he said: "You don't have to send them all away. You don't have a woman to take care of you. You can keep one. As for who to keep, you decide for yourself."
"Yes."
Liang Xiao just verbally coaxed the old man to be happy. After returning, he thought of a way to let them live outside for a while, and after the limelight passed, he would bring them back.
"Now the whole country is doing its best to fight the war of resistance. Even overseas Chinese know to return to China to participate in the war of resistance. As the deputy commander-in-chief of the third war zone and the commander-in-chief of the Beijing-Shanghai-Hangzhou garrison, you must devote your mind to the war of resistance, and don't waste your thoughts on A woman's body, her beauty and her bones, will one day be a pinch of loess, you are still young, and you still have a long way to go, and you will be the leader of the party and the country in the future, so don't let me down."
The commissioner said earnestly.
"Students understand, please don't worry the principal, it won't happen in the future.
"Liang Xiao admitted his mistake very sincerely.
"Since you realize your mistake, don't mention it and talk about business."
The commissioner summoned Liang Xiao in the middle of the night, not because of his little rotten stuff, but because of other... military affairs to discuss.
"The battle in Wuhan is still going on: enter.
Chen Cheng, the commander of the war zone, was transferred back to the military and political council to serve as the chief of staff of the military and political council again due to health reasons. Xue Yue, the deputy commander of the ninth war zone, was promoted to the commander of the war zone and took charge of the war in Wuhan. To be honest, Xue Yue is very good at fighting, but what I worry about is that, The main force of the national army has been completely lost in Wuhan, how should the next battle be fought”
"There is also the battle of Xuzhou in the fifth theater. At present, the main force of the Japanese army in Qinghai and Shandong is heading south along the Jinpu line and has already attacked the Zaozhuang area. Li Zongren, the commander of the fifth theater, is actively organizing defenses. The Japanese army has three 3rd divisions and one brigade. The regiment, they are making a lot of noise, and they are about to capture Xuzhou in one fell swoop. The fifth war zone frequently asks the military and political council for reinforcements, but the military and political council has no soldiers to send. Now the main force of the central army is in the area north of the Yellow River. The Japanese army in North China is fighting, and part of the main force is fighting in Wuhan. I have thought about it, but your 26th Army is currently resting. I want to discuss with you and see if it is possible to send one or two troops to Xuzhou to support Li Zongren."
The commissioner did not use the tone of order, but said to Liang Xiao in a tone of discussion, after all, today is different from the past, Liang Xiao is no longer that... a small officer who can be called by him at will, but a general of Huangpu with a heavy army in his hand, It is also the backing force for him to sit firmly in the position of leader.
