Xiang Tianhu spoke sincerely, and Xu Rui knew that this time he could no longer be perfunctory. First, Xiang Tianhu was a war hero no matter what, and he couldn't be perfunctory at will. Furthermore, Xu Rui actually had something in his heart.
A bigger thought, even though he knew the chance was very small, he still wanted to try.
At that moment Xu Rui said: "Brother Xiang, can you lend me a step to speak?"
"Of course." Xiang Tianhu turned around and exchanged a look with Yan Yuhui. Then the two of them followed Xu Rui to a secluded place. Xiang Tianhu said again, "Brother, there's no one here. You can say whatever you have to say."
Already."
Xu Rui said: "Brother Xiang, thank you for having such high regard for me. If I don't treat you with sincerity, you are ignorant. But there are a few words that I really don't feel unhappy about."
"It's okay." Xiang Tianhu said, "If you have anything to say, brother, just say it."
Xu Rui said: "Before getting to the point, I would like to ask Brother Xiang a question. Brother Xiang, what do you think of the war between China and Japan?"
"A war between China and Japan?" Xiang Tianhu said, "It goes without saying that China will win and little Japan will lose!"
Yan Yuhui next to him also nodded in agreement. This is also the common view of almost all soldiers in China. Although Japan's industrial manufacturing capabilities are far better than China's, the country is small and small, and its resources are extremely scarce.
It cannot withstand long-term consumption, so if it continues to be consumed for a long time, it will inevitably be defeated!
Of course, politicians like Wang Jingwei would not think so.
Xu Rui nodded and said, "Okay, so what do Brother Xiang and Brother Yan have to say about China's current situation after defeating Japan?"
"Well." Xiang Tianhu didn't know what to say.
Yan Yuhui said: "I'm afraid a civil war will break out between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party."
Xu Rui said happily: "Yes, there is a saying that one mountain cannot accommodate two tigers. Both the Kuomintang and the Communist Party are determined to become the ruling party. This is destined to have a civil war between the two parties, but I don't know that Brother Yan is worried about this.
What are the insights into the civil war?”
Yan Yuhui said with a smile: "Brother Xu, please forgive me for speaking frankly. In this civil war, your party has a slim chance of winning. This is also the reason why I persuade Brother Xu to join our army. Your party is still too weak and has no future."
"
Xu Rui shook his head and smiled: "However, I don't think so."
Yan Yuhui said: "How can we see it?"
"I would like to ask Brother Yan a question, what is the population of China?"
"Forty-five million."
“How many farmers are there among them?”
"I'm afraid no one can explain this clearly, but I think it must be 40 million, right?"
"If one of the political parties gets the full support of 40 million farmers, does Brother Yan think this party can win this civil war?"
"Of course, but please forgive me for being blunt, it may be difficult for your party to gain the full support of 40 million farmers, right? After all, your party is a minority party in China."
"I don't think so. Let me give you a simple example, and Brother Yan will know that what I say is true."
"I'm all ears."
Xu Rui told what had just happened in Meizhen.
Then he said: "We can use thunderous means to eliminate local Taoist organizations and restore the people's sunny days. We can use thunderous means to force the landlords and gentry to reduce rents and interest rates, reducing the burden on the people, so that they can have land to farm, food to eat and have money.
I want to ask Brother Yan, can the Kuomintang do it?"
"This..." Yan Yuhui was immediately speechless.
Xiang Tianhu said simply: "I'm afraid the Kuomintang can't do it."
"Brother Xiang, it's not that I'm afraid, but I definitely can't do it," Xu Rui said, "If the Kuomintang can really do this, they would have done it at the beginning of the victory of the Northern Expedition. Not only that, people all over the country still know how to do it.
The bullying and domination of the market does not stop at the landlords and gentry in every township and town, who are still exploiting the landless people with usurious loans?"
Yan Yuhui retorted: "To say that the Huidaomen across the country bully and dominate the market is a bit too much. Although the Huidaomen organizations are a mixed bag of good and bad, there are also loyal people among them, such as Du Yuesheng of the Shanghai Green Gang, who did a lot during the Songhu Battle.
Those who contribute little can be regarded as meritorious officials of the country."
"Yes, Du Yuesheng made a lot of contributions in the Battle of Songhu, but he is still essentially a gangster who bullies the market, bullies men and women, isn't it enough? He also sells opium, which is a disaster for the country and the people. If
If we are in power, such big gangster leaders must be among the first to be suppressed! Brother Yan, can the Kuomintang do it?"
Yan Yuhui was dumbfounded. Of course the Kuomintang could not do it. If the Kuomintang could really suppress a big gangster like Du Yuesheng, how could the Qing Gang gain the momentum it has today and become the largest gang in China? There are also the Hong Gang, Ge Lao Hui and Du Ruheng across the country.
How can the Nationalist Government allow them to live freely in the Huidaomen of River Sand?
To put it bluntly, the reason why China is so poor and weak is largely due to these huidao sects. It is these huidao sects that have created a mess at the bottom of China, causing the common people at the bottom to suffer oppression.
, and then lost confidence in the National Government.
After a long while, Yan Yuhui retorted: "Just because we didn't do it before, doesn't mean we won't do it in the future."
However, even Yan Yuhui himself did not believe what he said, so his tone was not so firm.
"It won't happen in the future." Xu Rui said firmly, "Chairman Chiang only came to power with the support of gang organizations and the big landowners and plutocrats in Jiangsu and Zhejiang. If he really dares to do this, if he does it today, he will be the old man tomorrow.
He will be ousted from power by the gangs, big landowners, and big chaebols who support him."
Xu Rui's words were definitely not nonsense, because in fact, Chairman Chiang had thought about the fate of the revolutionary Taoist organizations, big landowners, and big chaebols. The specific manifestation was that after the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, the eldest son Chiang once cracked down on speculation in Shanghai, but in the end
However, this massive and vigorous campaign came to nothing.
The fundamental reason for Mr. Chiang's failure was the lack of support from the "big plutocrats" behind Chairman Chiang.
For example, Mr. Jiang wanted to confiscate Du Yuesheng's opium. Du Yuesheng said that the opium belonged to Mr. Kong. If you want to confiscate it, go to Mr. Kong. Mr. Jiang found Kong Lingkan. Kong Lingkan directly reported it to his aunt Song Meiling. Then, Mr. Jiang
There would be no further consequences, because behind Soong Meiling was the entire Song chaebol, and Chairman Chiang Kai-shek did not dare to move.
It was not until he was defeated that he fled to Taiwan, and without the support of the Huidaomen organization and the big landowners and plutocrats in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, Mr. Chiang finally successfully implemented land reform in Taiwan. Although it still failed to eradicate the gangster cancer, it at least brought relief to the lowest level of the common people.
There is hope for life. Unfortunately, at this time, the people of mainland China have lost their hearts and minds, but the Kuomintang has nothing to do with it.
Xiang Tianhu said quietly: "Brother Xu, do you really dare to suppress the Huidao Sect Organization? The Huidao Sect Organization has existed in China for thousands of years. It is intertwined and deeply rooted. Do you really dare?"
"Why don't you dare?" Xu Rui said, "We have 40 million farmers behind us, so why don't we dare? If nothing else, at least the Huidaomen organization in Mei Town has been suppressed by us. What is Hongmen?
Yiguandao and the Black Dragon Society were all suppressed, and the ringleaders were all shot!"
Xiang Tianhu smacked his lips and said, "You people are courageous."
"Brother Xiang, it's not that we are courageous, but that we always think about the poor people. Anyone who dares to make trouble for the poor people will be killed by us."
After a pause, Xu Rui continued: "Brother Xiang, the Kuomintang is doomed to fail. What future do you have by following a party that is doomed to fail? Why don't you go to Dameishan with your younger brother? If Brother Xiang doesn't
, Our party wants to give you a division commander no matter what. When the time comes, let alone a brigade commander, Brother Xiang will ask me to be a guard for you. I am also willing to do so without any hesitation! Brother Xiang, how about it?
"
Xiang Tianhu was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then burst into laughter.
"Brother Xu, Brother Xu, you are really good." Xiang Tianhu laughed loudly, "Old Xiang, I just wanted to poach you, brother, but you want to take over my entire 180th Division?"
Go dig it, hahaha, I really have a big appetite, so let’s stop this matter and pretend I haven’t mentioned it before.”
Xiang Tianhu simply gave up the idea of recruiting Xu Rui.
As for the analysis Xu Rui just said about the Kuomintang and the Communist Party, Xiang Tianhu actually didn't listen to a word of it.
In fact, Xiang Tianhu doesn't care about party politics at all. He knows that he is a soldier, and soldiers should obey orders as their bounden duty. The legal government of China is the National Government, and the ruling party of the National Government is the Kuomintang, so he must
It is enough to obey the orders of the Kuomintang.
Xu Rui both appreciated and regretted Xiang Tianhu's straightforward attitude.
Xu Rui appreciates a pure soldier like Xiang Tianhu, but regrets that such a soldier cannot join the camp. If Xiang Tianhu chooses to do it anyway, the military history of New China may really be rewritten. The ten marshals
I dare not say the list. I am afraid the list of the top ten generals will be rewritten.
As he spoke, the eastern sky had already revealed a trace of fish belly white, and it was almost dawn.
Xiang Tianhu said: "Brother, in today's battle, I accept your love. From now on, whenever you encounter any difficulties, you only need to send someone to inform you. No matter in water or fire, if I frown,
If you frown, write the word "xiang" upside down."
This was an order to expel guests. Xu Rui also said at that moment: "In this case, I will leave."
"Wait a minute." Xiang Tianhu stopped Xu Rui, then turned to Yan Yuhui and said, "Chief of Staff, go to the munitions department and get all the remaining domestic ammunition we have, and give them all to Brother Xu to take away.
This little ammunition is of little use to us, it is just a reserve of ammunition for a small-scale positional battle, but in Brother Xu's hands, it can be of great use."
"Yes." Yan Yuhui stood at attention, then turned to Xu Rui and said, "Brother Xu, please come with me."
Xu Rui also stood upright, saluted Tianhu with a military salute, and solemnly said: "Brother, I'll see you later."
"See you later." Xiang Tianhu also snapped to attention and returned the gift.
