The Rise of the Writers of the Republic of China - Chapter 997
Zhu Shaoliang is a very interesting person. He personally drove Zhou Hexuan to Xicheng to pick up the bandits. Along the way, he also gave pointers to Lanzhou, which is undergoing urban construction, and put all the credit of Mayor Cai Mengjian on himself.
Actually, Lanzhou Mayor Cai Mengjian and Gansu Provincial Chairman Gu Zhenglun are in a group, and they are both closely related to the CC department.
In history, Gu Zhenglun wanted to force Zhang Daqian away from Dunhuang, and it is estimated that he was secretly instructed by Chen Lifu, one of the leaders of the CC department. Chen Lifu was in charge of the Ministry of Education, and as a result, the Ministry of Education ordered the Northwest History and Geographical Expedition dispatched by the Chinese Academy of Botanical Studies to succumb to Zhang Daqian, which is equivalent to Zhang Daqian hitting Chen Lifu in the face.
It’s just that there is no reason to turn his face. After all, Yu Youren’s senatorial faction has “no competition with the world”, and there is no need to offend him. However, the struggle between Zhu Jiahua and the CC Department has become intensified, and even a direct armed fight has occurred. The political rights of the two sides surrounding the Great Northwest have already been torn apart.
In order to balance the factional struggle, Chang Kaishen dispatched Gu Zhenglun’s brother Gu Zhengding to serve as a member of the Shanxi Party Committee. Gu Zhengding did not want to intervene in the struggle between Zhu Jiahua’s faction and the CC faction, so he made a special gesture to Yu Youren, a veteran faction, and recommended Zhang Geng, a close associate of Yu Youren, to be the secretary of the party department.
Zhang Geng couldn’t stand between Zhu Jiahua’s faction and CC department, and he resigned voluntarily after only a few months. Gu Zhengding couldn’t be a fool at this time, so he simply fell to the CC department, and his brother Gu Zhenglun, who served as the chairman of Gansu Province, also completely fell to the CC department.
As a result, the government and party affairs of several northwestern provinces were basically controlled by the CC, and the Zhu Jiahua faction could only barely support it.
Gu Zhenglun kept forcing Zhang Daqian to leave Dunhuang, probably because he was assigned by Chen Lifu to put pressure on Yu Youren of the old school—the Zhu Jiahua faction had a better relationship with the old school. The purpose was probably a warning, to keep Yu Youren away from Zhu Jiahua’s faction, so as not to be splattered with blood while watching the fun.
CC is still very interesting. Although notorious, it is the most determined anti-Japanese war faction.
In the mid-1930s, the main battle of the CC department and the main and the political science department fought fiercely. Yang Yongtai, one of the leaders of the political science department, was directly assassinated by the CC department. It was through the strength of the CC and Huangpu factions that Chang Kaishen was able to subdue so many lords and bureaucrats and carry out the War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression with difficulty.
Zhu Jiahua is more interesting. This person used to be an educator and has a very good personal relationship with Zhou Hexuan. He was able to ascend to the top, one is extremely strong personal ability, and the other is the recommendation of the veteran Dai Jitao. To put it bluntly, Lao Jiang was not at ease with the CC department, and arranged for a capable young man to fight with the CC department.
Zhu Jiahua belonged to the bare commander at the beginning, and he had to compromise and depend on brothers Chen Guofu and Chen Lifu at first, so he was also regarded as a member of the CC department at the beginning. When Zhu Jiahua was full of wings, he actually directly worked with the CC department. Moreover, many of his “Zhu Jiahua factions” are very capable and practical factions. With the support of Lao Jiang, they often overwhelm the CC department.
So the CC department started to play outsiders again. When they killed the political science department, it was an assassination attempt. Now Lao Jiang is keeping an eye on him, and he doesn’t dare to use the means of assassination again, so he will use the topic to openly beat people, and cut the telephone line when he beats people. Be an official.
Seeing that Zhu Jiahua’s faction was being fought by the CC faction, Lao Jiang transferred Gu Zhengding, who had no faction, to balance it. He didn’t expect Gu Zhengding to fall into the arms of the CC faction only a few months ago. In desperation, Lao Jiang finally made a big move, madly increasing Hu Zongnan’s power, and wanting Hu Zongnan, who holds military power, to suppress the tyranny of the CC Department in the northwest – Hu Zongnan and Dai Li got closer, and Dai Li was the mortal enemy of the CC Department.
Hu Zongnan became the “King of the Northwest”. The first one who was unlucky was not the CC Department, but Zhu Shaoliang, the highest commander of the Eighth War Zone.
It’s a pity to see that Zhu Shaoliang didn’t deal with the CC department. He was accidentally injured because Lao Jiang wanted to suppress the CC department. At that time, Zhu Shaoliang, the commander-in-chief of the Eighth Theater Command, was completely empty and could only survive by flattering Hu Zongnan.
Zhu Shaoliang, who lost his military power because of , completely released himself and devoted his energy to accumulating money.
How greedy is he?
Actually let his wife and confidant Ban Gan embezzle the special anti-G funds allocated by the central government, greedy all the money for “bandit suppression”, and dare to eat alone. The other officers of the military administration area in Gansu were busy for a long time and found that they could not get a penny.
Lao Jiang was furious, that was a special fund for the anti-G, and it was so greedy for Lao Tzu!
So, Lao Jiang immediately sent his son Jiang Weiguo to investigate, and Lanzhou staged a drama of asking his wife to offer his son. Ban Gan entrusted his wife and children to Zhu Shaoliang to take care of him. He bite the bullet and kill all the special funds. All the money was destroyed due to the plane crash, and then he was dragged to be shot, and all the money was eaten by Zhu Shaoliang.
From 1940 to 1945, the factional struggle of the Kuomintang in the Great Northwest was really fun, messing up the military and political affairs of several northwestern provinces.
…
We said that Zhu Shaoliang belongs to that kind of servile bureaucracy. As long as he has no conflicts of interest with nobles, he will do his best to curry favor, and Zhou Hexuan is undoubtedly such nobles – so is Yu Youren. Some time ago, Yu Youren visited various places in the northwest, and Zhu Shaoliang asked Ma Hongkui to personally lead troops to **** the whole process. He also gave various green lights to facilitate Zhang Daqian to strip paintings in Dunhuang.
Zhu Shaoliang gave Zhou Hexuan face very much. He drove to the outside of the West City in person and nodded in admiration in front of the bandits: “As expected, they are all strong men who volunteered to join the army. They are all heroes.”
Zhou Hexuan said: “This is Commander Zhu Shaoliang, the commander of the Eighth War Zone.”
Zhu Shaoliang said in panic: “Deputy commander, just deputy commander, and President Jiang himself serves as the commander.”
Ma Yongkui was overjoyed when he heard the words, and the commander of the theater actually came to greet him in person. They made the right decision to join the army this time. This guy was a former soldier, and he immediately stepped forward to salute the army and said: “Xiaomin Ma Yongkui and 500 righteous people have met Commander Zhu!”
“It’s the deputy commander, haha, it’s the deputy commander,” Zhu Shaoliang reassured and encouraged, “I heard Duke Ming said that there are righteous people to vote, which shows that the people’s hearts can be used. Why can’t the anti-Japanese war be won? Come with me to the military station, and from now on, make concerted efforts. Let’s fight against Japanese pirates!”
“Follow your orders!” Ma Yongkui had a good impression of Zhu Shaoliang. He really thought that Zhu Shaoliang was the kind of good official who respected the righteous people.
Zhou Hexuan also took Wanrong out of the bandits, Ma Yongkui kept his hand, for fear that Zhou Hexuan would send troops to beat him, and previously used high-sounding excuses to keep Wanrong outside the city.
The crowd did not enter the city this time, but went around the city to the theater headquarters outside Dongcheng.
There is a military station not far from the headquarters, and strong men from all over Gansu will be sent here for training and reorganization. The director of the military station was Ban Gan who later entrusted his wife and son to take the blame. This man was also one of Zhu Shaoliang’s sources of money.
“Director of the class, these are the righteous people who came to join the army. You must arrange them properly, and don’t neglect them.” Zhu Shaoliang instructed.
Ban Gan stood upright and saluted, “Follow the orders of the humble, and I will not let the righteous people suffer any grievances!”
Zhu Shaoliang nodded, and then said to Zhou Hexuan and Wanrong: “Ming Gong, ma’am, it’s getting late, the two of you have been tired all the way, why don’t you go to the humble house to rest first.”
