Age of Conquest Reborn

Chapter 374: The Secret Controversy of the Xi’an Incident

He Yingqin directly set the tone of the meeting without giving other members of the Central Standing Committee a chance to speak. Tang Qiuli also noticed that He Yingqin used the term "rebels" for Zhang Xueliang and Yang Hucheng's troops, pushing Zhang Yang away.

On the opposite side of the National Government.

Any rebellion must be suppressed. This is done in every dynasty and every generation. It is a routine and logical. If a teacher has a good reputation, he can use the power of the whole country.

Once the Standing Committee of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China reaches a resolution, when Chairman Mao Zedong is unable to take charge of the matter, he can act as the party chairman and issue an order to the Northwest Suppression General. Tang Qiuli cannot handle it, unless he also wants to be a "rebel"

”.

Moreover, He Yingqin could not command the troops of the Northwest Suppression General, and time was waiting for no one. He was impatient and came up with the idea of ​​​​the air force. Bombs do not have eyes, and they could not tell which one was Chairman Chiang Kai-shek, which one was Zhang Xueliang or Yang Hucheng.

He Yingqin's move, to put it nicely, means that both the jade and the stone will be destroyed. If you think about it more deeply, it might be that he is killing someone to silence him, or he is forcing Zhang Yang to commit murder and use Zhang Yang's hand to get rid of the old man. No matter which point, it is directly killing Commissar Chiang.

At this time, He Yingqin may have suffered for too long under the shadow of the old man. Fortunately, once he gained power, he tore off the disguise and revealed his murderous intent.

Tang Qiuli was very anxious. He came to Nanjing to attend the Central Standing Committee meeting, but he did not want to hear this result. The troops of the Northwest Suppression General had finally used their authority to stabilize the situation. They were a force of 300,000 tigers and wolves.

Generalissimo Chiang's trusted generals are all being detained by Zhang Yang in Xi'an. There should also be civilian officials loyal to Generalissimo Chiang in Nanjing, such as Song Ziwen, Kong Xiangxi, Chen Lifu, Chen Guofu and others. They are well-known powerful figures and are all members of the Standing Committee of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China.

, why didn’t you see them talking?

Tang Qiuli couldn't remain silent any longer. Seeing that He Yingqin was already preparing to leave the table. If he didn't speak, he might never have the chance. It would be a lifelong regret. He suddenly stood up and was about to speak.

A clear and magnetic female voice sounded outside the door: "Minister He, is this the end of the meeting? I wonder what the outcome of the Central Standing Committee meeting will be? I want to hear it!"

Like everyone else, Tang Qiuli's eyes were also drawn to it. At the door of the conference room, a beautiful woman with elegant manners, noble temperament, and big black and white eyes stared directly at He Yingqin. At the same time, she was not rude.

He greeted all members of the Standing Committee of the CPC Central Committee with a polite nod, his manners were elegant, extremely educated, and thoughtful.

He Yingqin, who was about to leave, his face darkened, with a look of hesitation, he stopped and asked in a deep voice: "Mrs. Jiang, this is a meeting of the Standing Committee of the Central Committee, what do you want to do with your coming?" This was said without hesitation.

You are polite and don't pretend to be pretentious. The meaning is obvious. You, Mrs. Jiang, are not a member of the Standing Committee of the Central Committee. Is this a place where you come just casually?

It is estimated that He Yingqin also concluded that Chairman Chiang would not survive this time. Since you old man cannot survive, why should you be polite to a woman like you?

Tang Qiuli's heart suddenly moved. This beautiful woman was the first lady of the Republic of China. She was both beautiful and intelligent. Mrs. Chiang Kai-shek, Mrs. Song Meiling. Her reputation was well-deserved. Her temperament, appearance, and connotation were all the best choices.

Hearing He Yingqin's unkind words, Song Meiling's face darkened, her eyebrows furrowed, and then she returned to normal. She must have thought, if nothing happens to the old man, why would you Jingzhi dare to speak to me like this? Give me your courage.

Even if you drink three kilograms of soju, you won't dare to say a word.

Song Meiling repeated what she had just said, and He Yingqin said impatiently: "The Standing Committee of the Central Committee has discussed it and reached a resolution to attack Zhang Yang by force and rescue the Chairman."

Song Meiling was so anxious that her plump body couldn't help but sway slightly. She had been in Chairman Chiang Kai-shek's office in the National Government Building and was worried about the Standing Committee meeting. When she heard the news from her cronies, she couldn't sit still anymore and hurriedly

Come here.

Anyone can imagine the result of He Yingqin's decision, which was to kill Chairman Chiang Kai-shek. She was so anxious that she could not let He Yingqin send troops anyway. This was an unacceptable result to her.

Song Meiling asked calmly: "Minister He, have you considered the consequences of doing this? Is the decision of the Central Standing Committee meeting the best way to rescue the Chairman?" Everyone could hear that behind Song Meiling's calmness, there was helplessness.

Anxiety and dissatisfaction suppressed and concealed.

When He Yingqin heard Song Meiling's question, he became even more impatient and a little angry. His voice suddenly raised: "This is the decision of the Standing Committee of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China. We are discussing how to rescue the party leader. You, a woman, are just messing around.

Do you alone want to overturn the resolution of the Standing Committee of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China?"

These words were so rude. In front of so many members of the Standing Committee of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, they directly rebuked the First Lady of the Republic of China, and directly attributed Soong Meiling's identity to that of an ordinary housewife. The last rhetorical question, which was full of threats, was completely untrue.

Take Song Meiling seriously.

There was an embarrassing silence in the conference room, and a strange feeling arose in the hearts of the members of the Standing Committee. Could it be that He Jingzhi was confident, sure of victory, and had the power to do so, so he dared to treat Mrs. Chiang so boldly?

The members of the Standing Committee were silent, no one came forward to speak for Soong Meiling, and each of them secretly considered that at this delicate moment, standing in the right place was the most critical, as it related to one's own future, prosperity, and wealth.

Song Meiling's face turned pale instantly. She did not expect that He Yingqin would dare to treat her like this, speak rudely and reprimand her face to face. However, the members of the Standing Committee were obviously making up their own minds and making plans of their own.

Song Meiling felt miserable in her heart. What does it mean that true knowledge comes from adversity? The Chairman of the Generalissimo has not yet lost his life. The senior officials in Nanjing are already preparing to change their courtyards and hug the new big trees. No one is willing to stand up and speak for herself. They usually cheer each other, and the scenery is beautiful.

The infinite Song Meiling seemed so lonely and helpless at this time.

Song Meiling calmed down her chaotic thoughts and said in a gloomy tone: "Members of the Central Standing Committee, what you are thinking about is how to save the party leader. I am only thinking about how to save my husband safely. How will the chairman treat you when he is here?

Making such a decision will push the Chairman to a dead end, how can you bear it?" After saying this, maybe it touched the sad things in his heart, and he couldn't help sobbing softly.

In the conference room, the members of the Standing Committee looked at each other, but no one spoke. Only Song Meiling's cry echoed in the dead silence of the conference room.

Tang Qiuli really couldn't stand it. He Yingqin had the look of a villain who had succeeded. He knew that the old man's life was in danger and he didn't care about anyone. He had the attitude of killing God when God is blocking him, and killing Buddha when Buddha is blocking him.

He was about to stand up when Mei Ting beside him gently pulled his hand, meaning that in such a furious situation, he must not be able to handle the impasse well. Tang Qiuli's mind cleared.

, and shook Mei Ting's soft little hand, saying nothing.

Song Ziwen, who had always been sullen and silent, saw his sister being insulted like this by He Yingqin, and couldn't bear it anymore. After all, they were related by blood and flesh and blood. He didn't care about Jiang, and he still felt sorry for his own sister.

He stood up suddenly and said loudly: "I firmly oppose the decision of the Standing Committee of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China. The government did not try other means to rescue Chairman Chiang Kai-shek and decided to raise troops to attack Zhang Yang. It is so arbitrary. This is a disservice to the country and to Chiang Kai-shek.

I firmly disagree with the chairman’s irresponsible decision!”

After saying that, he sat down heavily on the chair. Because he was too excited, his fair face was full of flushes and he was breathing heavily.

Song Meiling glanced at her brother gratefully, feeling the warmth of flesh-and-blood affection. A warm current surged in her heart, and she suddenly had great courage. She wiped away her tears and her eyes became strong again.

Kong Xiangxi, who had been silent all this time, also spoke at this time. He said in a slow tone: "The topic of the Central Standing Committee meeting was how to rescue Chairman Chiang Kai-shek. Without consultation on various methods, they hurriedly made a plan for a military crusade.

, seems too impatient and lacks consideration. I support Commissioner Song's opinion, oppose the use of force to attack Zhang Yang, and suggest choosing a more secure plan."

After saying that, she slowly wiped her glasses. Song Meiling glanced at her brother-in-law with gratitude and surprise. This brother-in-law who usually didn't talk much and only focused on making money, seemed a bit dull. Unexpectedly, at this critical moment, she firmly

It is really rare and valuable to stand on your own side and express your attitude decisively.

After Song Ziwen and Kong Xiangxi expressed their attitudes, the conference room fell into silence again, and everyone was thinking silently. However, compared to the more than 60 members of the Central Standing Committee, the opinions of Song and Kong were very thin, and they were definitely in the minority.

No member of the Standing Committee of the Central Committee responded positively and expressed agreement with the opinions of Song and Kong.

Soong Meiling turned her attention for help to Chen Guofu, who was closely related to the Jiang family, the Song family, and the Kong family. They all said that Jiang, Song, Kong, and Chen were all in one, and their fates were connected. What's more, the Chen brothers had Chairman Chiang.

Thanks to their strong support and extraordinary trust, we have achieved today’s prominent position.

The Chen brothers, who hold the power of the Communist Party organization, also control another major spy agency of the Republic of China, the Bureau of Investigation and Statistics of the Central Organization Department of the Communist Party of China. They can be said to be in a high position and have real power.

The outside world is also wondering why Chairman Chiang shows such favor to the Chen brothers, who are neither nephews of the Chiang family, nor relatives, nor even fellow villagers of Zhejiang, and refuses to promote them vigorously, but still obeys his advice and hands over the power of the Communist Party organization.

The reason why he managed the Chen brothers until they reached a high position alongside the three families of Jiang, Song and Kong is still a mystery.

Because his brother Chen Lifu had been ill in bed for a long time, Chen Guofu became the spokesperson of the Chen brothers. If Chen Guofu came forward to support the opinions of Song Ziwen and Kong Xiangxi, the weight would be different. The three most important families in the Republic of China all expressed opposition. He Yingqin

No matter how arrogant and domineering you are, you have to consider the consequences.

What made Soong Meiling very disappointed and heartbroken was that Chen Guofu, who had been keeping a blank face in the face of Mrs. Chiang's extremely eager and expectant gaze, turned his head to avoid Soong Meiling's gaze, but cast his gaze on He Yingqin's face.

Song Meiling sighed deeply in her heart. What kind of people did our Jiang family support?
