Chapter 375 Coalition Government
On September 21, 1939, the special train of the General General of the General of the State Government, Zhang Xueliang, passed through Taiyuan, Shanxi. The newly compiled the 33rd Division of the Youth Army, Major General He Moyan, led his troops to greet him at the station. Two months ago, the Youth Army had 19 units of the Youth Army, and the entire division was equipped with two armored divisions, five heavy artillery brigades, ten mobile rocket launchers, and the Twelve Light Cavalry Regiments, swept across the entire Shanxi with thunderous force, completely sweeping the remnants of the Japanese invaders, and annihilated three divisions and five mixed brigades of the Japanese army, totaling more than 70,000 people. Except for the base areas of the Second War Zone, the southwest of Shanxi and the Eighth Route Army in northwest of Shanxi, the remaining areas of the former Japanese controlled by Zhang Xuewu.
Zhang Xuewu also formally established the Provisional National Government of the Iron Blooded Revival Party in Chengde, known in history as the Northern Government, and was suspected of competing with the National Government of the Southern Capital Wuhan. Zhang Xuewu took office as the head of the provisional Northern Government, the army, navy and air force, and the commander!
Zhang Xueliang's trip was for Zhang Xuewu to establish a temporary national government! Regarding Zhang Xuewu's actions, everyone in the North National Government was singing and asked the Provisional Government to immediately send troops to North China to restore the country. The mouthpiece of the Southern National Government was abrupt. Except for the newspapers controlled by Wang Jingwei and others who attacked Zhang Xuewu as the only thief in the chess and stealing the country, Chiang Kai-shek seemed extremely calm, not cursing or throwing things? . . com
The chequets of Wang Jingwei and others made Zhang Xuewu very annoyed. Who said that I, Zhang Xuewu, are not as good as Wang Zhaoming, the big traitor, but unlike in history, because the Japanese army in North China have basically been wiped out, the main force of the Kwantung Army and the Japanese army in North China are all hiding east of Jinzhou in Northeast China. The Japanese army in central China relies on the advantage of the navy to defend in the Beijing, Shanghai and Hangzhou areas, and Nanjing is still under the custody of the Nine-Country Treaty Organization, so the counterattack of the Chinese team is difficult to work for the time being, especially after the concentrated force is shrinking, the Japanese army's firepower is more rapid, and the price of the counterattack is very high.
Therefore, Wang Jingwei, who advocated compromise with Japan, had no chance to be his big traitor, so Wang Jingwei could also unscrupulously make his bullshit remarks as the President of the State Government in Zhang Xuewu's opinion.
Zhang Xueliang arrived in Chengde as the General Senator of the National Government. The Japanese and puppet military forces in Pingjin area have been wiped out. However, Zhang Xuewu's headquarters did not conduct large-scale garrisons, but adopted the security regiment model. He drew the main force of the regular field army to form 35 security regiments in 18 counties in Pingjin area. These security regiments were directly under the leadership of the Northern Fuxing Party National Government, which forced the Tang Enbo Legion and Hu Zongnan Legion, who were originally preparing to march into the Pingjin area, were forced to stop. Zhang Xuewu was famous for being unreasonable and protecting his shortcomings.
From the sudden outbreak of announcing the establishment of the Provisional Northern Government of the Iron Blood Baath Party to the sweeping of the Japanese and puppet troops in Shanxi, Zhang Xuewu fought at the same time and did not hesitate at all. Therefore, neither Tang Enbo nor Hu Zongnan wanted to stimulate Zhang Xuewu. Zhang Xuewu's tiger butt was so easy to touch. In other words, touching the tiger's butt was a fatal matter, while stimulating Zhang Xuewu was the treatment of raiding the family and digging the ancestral grave.
Zhang Xueliang's special train was escorted to Chengde, and Zhang Xueliang was extremely surprised along the way. Chahar and Rehe were originally controlled by him. Even if the people did not starve to death, it would be difficult for several months to escape in the whole year! He and Dayan were the only source of economic resources in Rehe, and Zhang Xueliang couldn't understand where Zhang Xuewu got the money? Even if he did the big smoke business across the country, he probably wouldn't have that much money. Moreover, Zhang Xueliang was surprised to find that the blue sky and white sun hat badges of the officers and soldiers of Zhang Xuewu's troops had changed to a new style? The olive branch and two-step guns crossed to protect the Great Wall. At the top, there was a red sun! Beautiful, generous, and heroic! This is Zhang Xueliang's first intuitive impression.
Zhang Xuewu received Zhang Xueliang and his party at Chengde Station with a grand welcome ceremony. It can be said that the newly designed new military uniforms of the National Government Army with some German military uniforms dwarfed the old-fashioned military uniforms of the National League. Zhang Xueliang pulled the clothes of his military uniforms, and was very satisfied with Zhang Xuewu's ability to come to the station to welcome him. However, Zhang Xuewu tried to separatist the side and provoke civil war. At that time, he had 300,000 Northeast Army. As the largest vassal state in the country, if the Japanese had not blown up the old coach's special train, he would not have decided to change the flag!
Unexpectedly, even at its peak, the Northeast Army was not one-third of the Fuxing Party and National Government Army of Zhang Xuewu's headquarters. The strict military appearance of the Fuxing Party and National Government Army suddenly made Zhang Xueliang feel a strange feeling? That is the Party Army. Zhang Xueliang once saw this spirit of serving the country and the people in another Central Team when the Northwest Alliance was in unite with the officers and soldiers.
In Zhang Xuewu's command center, Zhang Xueliang looked around and felt very excited. Because Zhang Xuewu invited him into his combat room, nearly a hundred radio stations were divided into several districts and busy receiving and receiving work. A large number of staff members came and went, saluting Zhang Xueliang and others with great surprise.
After seeing Zhang Xuewu's first mate's full strategic combat intention, Zhang Xueliang took a deep breath and said, "Mr. Chiang is naturally not bad to me. Hanqing's crime can also forgive me, which makes Hanqing feel that he is in the midst of his thoughts. So I came here to ask you a few words on behalf of Chiang. You should think about it and answer it!"
Zhang Xuewu frowned slightly. The criticism within the government had been going on for a while, but it was not Wang Jingwei and Chiang Kai-shek had the final say, but it was necessary for the general public to recognize it. Zhang Xuewu actually had conducted an investigation before the formal establishment of the provisional government! Ninety-eight percent of the people asked Zhang Xuewu to leave the Republic of China government, and Ninety-two percent expressed their willingness to take the initiative to serve in the military for free to defend the new national provisional government. On the basis of public opinion, Zhang Xuewu decided to establish the Northern National Provisional Government to compete with the Wuhan National Government.
Zhang Xueliang opened an envelope and said, "Duke Chiang asked you the enemy that you are in charge of your own regime and trapped the country. Where is the nation? What is your intention? It is useless to waste the trust of the people and the cultivation of the leaders!"
Zhang Xuewu glanced at Zhang Xueliang. He knew that he was answering Chiang Kai-shek clearly, but in fact he was convincing Zhang Xueliang that if he could convince Zhang Xueliang, it would be equivalent to being able to convince most of the factions of the State Administration. Because the establishment of Zhang Xuewu's Northern National Provisional Government deeply stimulated a large number of generals such as Li Zongren and Bai Chongxi. In their opinion, Chiang Kai-shek may not be an excellent strategist and tactician, but an excellent international politician. Chiang Kai-shek was always able to compromise and find a way for China to survive. On the contrary, such people can also play a major role in the international stage when the national strength surged. Zhang Xuewu was a soldier who ignored the whole story. Zhang Xuewu's strategic vision and tactical vision were unique, and he could always be the first move of the enemy.
Zhang Xuewu hesitated and said, "Today's China is not the old China, and today's learning martial arts is not the old learning martial arts. When our industrial foundation in the north is being established, the army is preparing to restore the country, which is a just battle! The National Government's ** has reached the point where it is not governing the country and the devastated party. How can we win the battle against the Japanese invaders on this basis? Poisonous sores need to be taken seriously! Mr. Chiang is kind-hearted, and I am willing to put this knife on Chiang and contribute my own strength to the rebirth of the Republic of China!"
Zhang Xuewu paused for a moment and continued: "If Chiang Kai-shek permits that when the North and South National Governments form a coalition government with political parties in various countries and elect the president, I will elect Chiang Kai-shek as the president of the coalition government. I am willing to be the Minister of National Defense, command the three armed forces to be responsible for fighting against Japan and integrate domestic armed forces. The United Nations Government will hold a new election in five years. After winning the Anti-Japanese War, I will not enter the political and military circles!"
Zhang Xueliang was surprised and said: "Then if the newly formed political parties such as the G party also participate in politics and make decisions, wouldn't the president's power be dispersed? And if he wins the general election, would he also have to be in power directly as the ruling party?"
Zhang Xuewu smiled slightly and said, "The five-year term is not short. If you can't do it well, let others do it. Is there anything wrong with this? Whoever can bring happiness to the people has the right to rule this country. However, the country is in a state of war, so the president has a veto system! When the state of war is lifted, national administration and military affairs can only be implemented through the National Local Congress. The country's democratic process must be gradually implemented. It took the Americans two hundred years, and the British for three hundred years, but it is still a constitutional monarchy, so we naturally cannot be anxious! What I mean is that Chiang Kai-shek is the president and in charge of military administration. I am also the Minister of National Defense of the Military Command, the Military Affairs Department, the General Staff Department, the General Logistics Department, the General Equipment Department, and the General Political Department Training Department, responsible for specific operations and military production against Japan.
Zhang Xueliang looked at Zhang Xuewu seriously: "After the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, are you really willing to let go of the power in your hands?"
Zhang Xuewu smiled slightly and said, "What if I can't bear to let go? Are brothers fighting in the same family? Do we have less blood in the past? If I really want to win the country and nation in danger for my own selfish interests, if I really want to win the throne, I will wipe out the National Government in three months and use the thirty-five divisions of my new Youth Army. Why did I set up a government to establish a team of only an army system, but not an administrative team? Just leave room for Chiang Kai-shek. Looking at what troops can stop the edge of my three armored divisions in the country now? I am not afraid to tell you, I have received more than 6,000 tanks and armored vehicles from the Soviet Union, all of which were purchased at the price of scrap steel, and can be formed into troops at any time. Who dares to try out such an armored torrent?"
