The wife was supervising the gambling game, and everyone bet on the bet, some bet on Sun Chuanfang to win, while others bet on the National Revolutionary Army to win, but Yan Su said: "Madam, is it a bet on a battle or a whole situation?"

Yao Yilei said: "Victory and defeat are common in military affairs. One or two wins will not affect the overall situation. We bet whether Sun Xinshuai can protect his territory in the five provinces."

Yan Su said: "I won't participate in this gambling plate."

Yao Yileiqi said: "Why?"

Yan Su spread his hands: "Sun Chuanfang's victory or defeat is all under the control of our Kunshun. If Kunshun wants him to win, he can win. If he wants him to lose, he has to lose. It's all the two of you who win, so how can I bet?"

Everyone laughed. Although Chief of Staff Yan was a joke, what he said was the fact. Now the strongest combat power in the Central Plains is Jiangdong Guard. Chen Zikun's choice will directly affect the world. As long as he sends a division of troops to Nanjing, Sun Chuanfang's rear will be in chaos. This is an indisputable fact.

However, no one knows which side Chen Kunshuai will support.

There was no outsider in the back garden, Yao Yilei asked directly: "Master, which side do you support?"

Chen Zikun asked back: "Which side do you think I should support?"

Yan Su said: "Of course we support the winning side. Aren't we always doing this?"

Chen Zikun said: "That was when we were not strong before, so we had to do it. Now our family has a foundation. The 30,000 tiger and wolf army is a very heavy weight. You can win on one side. This is our capital, but it is also our responsibility. We cannot be careless. I want to hear everyone's opinions."

The tone of the Grand Marshal was very serious, and everyone put away their smiles. Yan Su said: "I will still insist on a neutral attitude. Chiang Kai-shek gave us a million, so that we can only keep it neutral. We will not offend both sides."

Chen Zikun nodded slightly, not commenting.

Jian Bing curled his lips and said, "The two ends of the rat are not what heroes do. I want me to say that Beiyang is already rotten. The world is like singing a big show. The voices of the stars on the stage are singing. The people are also annoyed. It's time to change the opera troupe."

Yao Yilei said: "That's the reason. The Beiyang group of people are so chaotic that you have finished singing and I will appear. There is no new idea. However, the grass-roots team in the south may not be able to sing well. I heard that they are supported by the Russians. If they change to a pro-Russian government, wouldn't they go back more and more?"

Everyone nodded and said yes.

Suddenly, Liu Ting, who had been silent, spoke: "Can I talk about my opinion?"

Chen Zikun said: "Although it is not a military conference, don't be restricted."

Liu Ting said: "I think the current Civil War is essentially different from the previous wars. Beiyang represents the old military and gentry system, while Guangzhou regime represents the emerging bourgeoisie, not the interests of the Russians as the wife said."

After all, he was the confidential secretary of the supervision office. As soon as he said, he shocked the person. Chen Zikun said: "Let's talk about his predictions about the situation."

Liu Ting said: "Beiyang is corrupt, militarized, and has been fighting for years. It has lost the support of the whole society. Whether it is the capitalists in the upper class, the middle class, the peasants, and the petty citizens, they are tortured by warlords' melee, and the warlords lack legal basis and financial support to continue to maintain it. The election of president Cao Kun was placed under house arrest by Feng Yuxiang for a long time. Since the end of 1924, there has been no president in this country. Duan Qirui is just in power, and now there is no temporary rule."

"Also, the Beiyang sects have been fighting for many years, spending a huge million yuan, the national treasury has long been empty, and military expenditure accounts for more than 80% of the income. How can there be so much money in finance? Foreigners' loans are not easy to borrow, because there is not even a mortgage. Beijing appointed Gu Weijun, who is good at diplomacy, as the prime minister, is the idea of ​​borrowing money from foreigners. Without money, you cannot buy arms and pay military salaries, and you cannot win the battle. On the other hand, Guangzhou has the highest propaganda and Russian military aid, the ideology of the Three Principles of the People, and the slogan of unanimous defeat of the great powers. The momentum and novel meaning are all incomparable to the Xinhai Revolution. Therefore, the South will win, which is an inevitable trend of the development of the times."

The little girl talked happily, which was impressive. Liu Ting was originally a talented woman from Jiangdong University. She has been well-read in poetry and books since she was a child. After going to college, she came into contact with progressive ideas and joined the Supervisory Office as a confidential secretary. She had the opportunity to get in touch with various intelligence information. In addition, she was talented and made a great statement.

Everyone lowered their heads and thought. Yan Su was wondering if he was a little out of date. Chen Zikun was wondering if he had to make a decision in advance. Yao Yilei and Jian Bing looked at each other tacitly and began to reconsider the threat of the female secretary.

Liu Ting is a standard girl with a slim figure and not tall. Jiang Daneng, who is rare in girls, can be regarded as a school beauty-level figure. However, compared with women like Yao Yilei and Jianbing, who have conquered the social circles in Beijing and Shanghai with their beauty and charm, there is still a big gap in temperament and appearance. This is also the reason why the two ladies have not taken her seriously for a long time.

But this comment on the situation has to make people re-evaluate this female secretary. Men like beautiful women, but they prefer smart women. If this woman can help her career, it will be even cuter. The confidential secretary is originally a personal staff member in charge. It would be strange if the man and the woman are alone for a long time.

A gambling ended quickly and everyone went with their own ulterior motives.

...

After get off work, Liu Ting carried her bag out of the Supervisory Office and walked a hundred steps away. Suddenly, someone coughed softly in the alley on the side of the road. She turned her head and saw that she was a young man with a low brim pressed down.

Liu Ting looked at no one behind her and turned around and entered the alley. The man led the way in front and came to a house where Zheng Zeru was sitting in the house.

"Secretary Zheng." Liu Ting greeted.

"Comrade Liu Ting, you are here. How has your work been doing recently? Is there any latest information?" Zheng Zeru asked.

"General Chen has not yet made up his mind to support the National Revolutionary Army." Liu Ting replied.

Zheng Zeru nodded: "You must strengthen your work and do your work more meticulously and in-depth."

Mai Ping was the one who brought Liu Ting in. He interrupted impatiently, "How is the work more meticulous? Liu Ting, a girl, has been very difficult for her to work in the enemy's nest. Secretary Zheng, you must be considerate."

Zheng Zeru said: "The current situation is very serious. Chiang Kai-shek is a new warlord mixed in the revolutionary ranks and may attack our party at any time. We must strengthen the ideological work of protecting progressive soldiers in Jiangdong to win them. Comrade Liu Ting's task is very arduous, the organization is very clear and understands, Liu Ting."

"Please say, Secretary Zheng."

"The organization has high expectations for you. Always remember that you are a glorious ** Youth League member. Your work is long-term and the task is arduous. At the appropriate time, the organization will seriously consider your application for joining the party."

"Yes." Liu Ting's emotions were not obvious as excited or depressed.

"Okay, go and contact us anytime if you have anything to do." Zheng Zeru said.

Liu Ting turned around and left, Mai Ping was a little anxious: "Secretary Zheng, how do you ask Liu Ting to work in depth? Should you accompany the warlords to bed!"

Zheng Zeru said seriously: "Comrade Mai Ping! The ** member can even abandon his life, so what else can't be sacrificed?"

Mai Ping's face turned red and his neck was thick, and the blood vessels on his temples were leaping.

"Comrade Xiaomai!" Zheng Zeru patted Mai Ping's shoulder vigorously, "Your emotions are in consideration in organization, but revolution is not a house-playing house. Someone must give or sacrifice. Do you understand?"

Mai Ping took out a cigarette and lit it, took a few deep sips, squatted on the ground and scratched his hair like a chicken coop. After standing up for a long time, his voice was a little dry: "Secretary Zheng, I obey the organization's decision."

"This is a good comrade." Zheng Zeru smiled and patted Mai Ping on the shoulder again.

...

Chen Zikun's new policy encountered great resistance. The specialists recruited from universities would only talk big, and the world was lacking. When they arrived in the county and the township, they were tricked by the gentry and landlords, and their work could not be carried out at all. Only Zheng Zeru, an agricultural specialist sent to Nantai County, was very successful.

Nantai is where Chen Zikun made his fortune, and the mass base is very solid. The political measures of the Grand Marshal are naturally supported by local gentry, and Zheng Zeru's ability is also the strongest among these specialists. Chen Zikun specially sent him to build Nantai County into a model county in the province.

Zheng Zeru not only made the new policy office in Nantai County very vivid, but also used the abandoned opium fields of Jiangbei military reclamation, recruited a group of civilians to plant wheat, built houses in Jiangwan, named Jiangwan New Village, and established a farmers' mutual aid group to distribute grain, oil, salt, sauce and vinegar as needed.

"It's interesting to manage the peasants militarized." Chen Zikun did not think deeply after seeing the report, because another thing caused him to panic and anger.

The students of Jiangdong Army Officers' School actually launched a demonstration privately, and the teams were all driven to the gate of the Supervisory Office and found out that they had only after they knew about it!

The last parade was arranged by myself, and everything was under control. This time, it was shocking. More than a thousand young scholars lined up to the office with bare hands and fists to petition. The crowd was excited and asked Marshal Chen to send troops to join the war, eliminate the warlords, and defeat the great powers. The sound waves were rising and the glass in the office room was trembling.

These slogans are nothing. Chen Zikun himself often uses these radical words on power, but he launched a parade of military soldiers without his permission. This shocked him too much. Fortunately, it was an unarmed parade. If all the rifles and bullets from the military academy were taken out and a fully armed parade would not be able to stop it! Then someone would be bewitched by others, and the young student soldiers would be in a hot mind and could not do anything. You should know that the family could live in the back of the office, and his own precious daughter, one year and three months old!

Thinking of all the consequences, Chen Zikun was in a cold sweat and hurriedly met the students in person, put on military uniforms and walked out of the gate. Zhao Yufeng shouted: "Everyone has it, stand at attention!"

The students stood attentively and saluted with reflexive conditions. Chen Zikun looked grim and shouted, "Down with the great powers and the warlords!"

The students immediately shouted: "Down with the great powers and defeat the warlords!"

Zhao Yufeng shouted in a sudden hoarse voice: "Long live Marshal Chen!"

The students hesitated for a moment and shouted: "Long live Marshal Chen!"

In this way, the tense nerves of the guard soldiers blocking the door of the office were slightly relaxed and their muzzles were lowered.
Chapter completed!
