Chapter 243 Nanjing (VIII)

Ouyang Yun quickly mobilized all known information in his mind, and quickly made a judgment on the relationship between Hu Hanmin and Chen Jitang: Although Hu Hanmin and Chen Jitang belong to the Cantonese family, their positions are not the same.In the final analysis, the ass determines the brain. Although Hu Hanmin is the spiritual leader of the powerful southern faction, he has no real power in his hands, while Chen Jitang is in the hands of the military and political power. Perhaps, what he wants is to make further progress and take the old Let Jiang replace it.

After deliberating for a while, Ouyang Yun did not answer Hu Hanmin's question directly, but pretended to be confused and asked an irrelevant question: "Who is the tall and thin guy?"

Hu Xiang and the two laughed, and Xiang Hanping said: "Forget that Ouyang is not from Cantonese, hehe, the tall and thin guy is exactly Chen Jitang's nickname."

"Oh," Ouyang Yun said with a smile on his face, "That's a really good nickname." After a pause, he got to the point: "About 'Wei Qing' and 'Qubing', the principle of our apprentices is that as long as they are Anyone can own the Chinese army that is determined to fight against Japan. The Guangdong Army is a revolutionary army with a glorious tradition, and I have always admired it. Commander-in-Chief Chen is also a wise leader who cares about the people's livelihood and the great cause of his family and country. He sold weapons to the Guangdong Army , I don’t have any opinion. But—forgive me, the current domestic situation, I don’t think it’s the best time for Guangzhou to replace Nanjing.”

Hu Xiang and Hu Xiang glanced at each other, and the former's expression became solemn: "Ouyang is very right, and I think so too. The internal contradictions of the Chinese people can be discussed later, and the external threats must be eradicated first."

The latter went on to say: "However, given the current situation, it is impossible for our Cantonese faction to directly participate in the Anti-Japanese War, at least across Nanjing, let alone Han Fuju, Fu Zuoyi, and Song Zheyuan. North China belongs to their territory. The Cantonese faction If the tentacles are too long, they will definitely not let them." At this point, he looked at Ouyang Yun with some curiosity, and asked: "It makes me feel strange to say this, Han Fuqu and others are not vegetarians, why do they Will you be indifferent to the rise of the apprentice division?"

Ouyang Yun was taken aback, he had never thought about this question before.Thinking about it, North China is the traditional sphere of influence of Han Fuqu and others. As a rookie, how could they let it go?

"You underestimated Ouyang." Hu Hanmin glanced at Xiang Hanping and said, "Do you think that his penicillin sales rights were distributed randomly? Heh heh, it doesn't matter whether Han Fuqu or Yan Xishan, after all, it's just a few landlords." It’s just old money, how can we compare with us in Guangdong. We have sugar factories and fertilizer factories in Guangdong. What do they have in Shandong and Shanxi? Closer to home, Ouyang, don’t you wonder why we contact you behind our backs? Let me tell you the reason. With your intelligence, you will definitely not refuse to cooperate with the thin and tall man, so I will tell you some cooperation details now..."

The cooperation agreement between Guangdong, Guangxi, and Xue (Xue Bingshi) was drawn up when Ouyang Yun was still on the train. As the veteran of the Cantonese Department, Hu Hanmin was fortunate to participate, so he knew the details.

With the cooperation of the three parties, the old enemies of Guangdong and Guizhou as a whole will provide public opinion and political support for the Xuebing Division to formally become an independent force, and Guangdong will also provide a one-time free financial aid of 200 million oceans, while Gui The department will provide it with a division of veterans.The price that the cadet division had to pay was to provide a base for the Guangdong Army in Chahar, and to help Guangdong and Guangxi establish a production line for "Weiqing" and "Qubing".

As the central content of the contract, the three parties must maintain a consistent direction in the future military and politics.This is tantamount to tying the student soldiers to the chariot of Guangdong and Guangxi against Chiang.

This condition does not seem to be a disadvantage to the apprentice division, but Chen Jitang has planted the Cantonese seeds in his confidant area, and a division of Guangxi officers and soldiers has been mixed into the army. variable.

After introducing the situation, Hu Hanmin asked Ouyang Yun: "How do you feel?"

Ouyang Yun didn't answer for a long time, his brows were furrowed and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Seeing this, Xiang Hanping said to Hu Hanmin: "This matter is of great importance. Ouyang will definitely need time to think about it."

Ouyang Yun's mind was really turbulent at the moment, with many thoughts, but none of them were about cooperation.His mind was completely attracted by Xiang Hanping's previous words - as Xiang Hanping said, Han Fuqu, Yan Xishan, and Fu Zuoyi, none of these people are fuel-efficient lamps, so how could they tolerate the military apprentices? rise?Is it really because of Li?However, only a small amount of penicillin was supplied to North China.Also, by what means did Hu Hansan obtain the confidential information of the Xuebing Division?How many spies have been infiltrated into the cadet division?It is conceivable that those who have access to oil secrets must be of a high level.

After about a quarter of an hour, Hu Hanmin saw that Ouyang Yun was still frowning and did not speak, and asked impatiently, "Is it so difficult to make a decision?"

Under his urging, Ouyang Yun finally cleared his mind and came to his senses. Remembering that Hu Han militiamen didn't tell the reason why he was looking for him, he sighed and asked, "Sir, do you have any suggestions?"

"You can accept this agreement. Of course, if you don't want to suffer a disadvantage, you can add a condition. As far as I know, you and Zhang Zizhong are planning to build Dagukou into a trade port?"

"Yes!"

"Takukou is facing the threat of the Japanese navy from Lushun. Ouyang, without the navy, are you sure you can defend Dagukou under the double attack of sea and air?"

Ouyang Yun smiled bitterly: "Not sure."

"Then why not block it directly? Dagukou is difficult to defend, but it is not difficult to block it. In this way, you can completely ignore the threat from the sea."

"However, without the entrance to the sea, how can the industrial advantages of our cadets turn into economic advantages?"

Hu Hanmin smiled: "That's why I want you to add a condition. As you know, there are many seaports in Guangdong and Guangxi, and Fujian now also belongs to the sphere of influence of Guangdong and Guangxi. It may be a bit difficult to get the seaports in Guangdong and Guangxi. Difficult, but there should be no problem in getting a port in Fujian."

Ouyang Yun's heart moved, but thinking of the actual distance between Renqiu and Fujian and the vast Nanjing-controlled area in between, he shook his head slightly and said: "It won't work, the distance between Renqiu and Fujian is too far, and there are many people in the middle. The territory of Nanjing."

"Then move the factories here. Of course, in order to ensure the safety of these factories, you can also send an army over."

"This plan is indeed good, but will Chen Jitang, Li Zongren, and Bai Chongxi agree?"

"This can be resolved by me," Hu Hanmin said confidently.

Ouyang Yun looked at him, finally showing a smile on his face, he asked: "So, what should I do for my husband?"

Hu Xiang and Hu Xiang smiled at each other, and the former said with a smile: "It's a pleasure to talk to a smart person, Ouyang, since you have already thought of it, then I will not be polite. We would like to ask you to train an army for us in North China." .”

Ouyang Yun was puzzled: "If the agreement is reached, don't you already have a base in North China? Oh, no—sir, could it be that you and Commander-in-Chief Chen..." He tentatively asked, but didn't finish his sentence.

Hu Hanmin stood up, with a very solemn expression, and said leisurely: "As you said, our Cantonese faction, as the prime minister's direct descendants, has a glorious revolutionary tradition. However, if you look at the current Cantonese faction, they still Can it be called the prime minister's direct line? The current Cantonese faction is equivalent to the thin and tall guy's private army. If the thin and tall guy is really determined to resist Japan and Chiang Kai-shek, that's all. I'm afraid he has ulterior motives... If we can If there is an army loyal to oneself, the situation in Guangdong and even southern China will be changed. General Ouyang, I need a new Guangdong army that can compare with Amtrak’s fourth army.”

The Cantonese faction was established by Mr. Zhongshan at the beginning of the uprising. After decades of development, the complexity of the factions is far beyond what Ouyang Yun, a later boy, can imagine.After hearing Hu Hanmin's discussion, he frowned and fell into deep thought again.Cooperate with the old Cantonese faction represented by Hu Hanmin and others?However, these people have no real strength to rely on, and no one knows where they can go.And Chen Jitang's New Cantonese Department is the natural spokesperson for Guangdong now. Although its personnel composition is not monolithic, the Cantonese Department that gathers is undoubtedly strong, and it is also what the student army needs.Perhaps, there is no necessary connection between the two. Anyway, Hu Hanmin just asked him to help them secretly train a team in North China.And having a seaport in Fujian is undoubtedly important for the student division. In the near future of the Anti-Japanese War, even if the student division could not defend Renqiu, it would have an extra place to live. Ouyang Yun thought this way, and finally decided Accept Hu Hanmin's suggestion.

So, on this night in southern China, Ouyang Yun, on behalf of the Xuebing Division, reached an agreement with the old Cantonese faction headed by Hu Hanmin.

"Mr. Ouyang, happy cooperation!" Hu Hanmin said while sending Ouyang Yun out, holding his hand tightly.

Xiang Hanping stood aside and said with a smile, "Mr. Ouyang, I hope we won't see each other for too long."

According to the agreement, Xiang Hanping will command the troops trained by the cadets for the old Cantonese faction, which is why he said this.

Ouyang Yun said with a smile: "It won't be long, as long as Dongshan starts to build a port, I think we will meet." The so-called Dongshan to build a port is what Ouyang Yun said about the conditions in the agreement.Hu Hanmin decided that the Xuebing Division could choose a place in the coastal area of ​​Fujian to build a port, so Ouyang Yun chose Dongshan County, which is close to Guangdong.

Hu Hanmin smiled, he waved his hand and said: "Since the agreement has been signed, I, Mr. Hu, will never break my promise. But, Mr. Ouyang, don't be intimidated by the tall and thin guy. If you don't insist, I will be alone." It's useless to try your best."

Ouyang Yun nodded with a smile, waved to them, and then left.
