Chapter 723 722 [It’s so Dark that It’s Crazy]
In fact, Zhou Hexuan was not swearing, he was praising people. The title of the article was "Patriotic General Song Zheyuan".
The content is as follows:
"Six months ago, the Tsinghua campus publication "Roar Bar" published an article called "Tsinghua University's National Salvation Report to the National People's Liberation Army," which cried out bitterly: 'North China is so big that there is no room for a peaceful desk.' This is what he said. Every word, every word weeping blood, students from Pingjin and Tianjin traveled north and south, setting off a wave of publicity for the national resistance to X."
"Actually, students don't have to worry too much. The sky in North China will not fall. Even if it does, General Song Zheyuan will be there to hold it up."
"The deterioration of the situation in North China should be after the signing of the Tanggu Agreement. The forces of China and Japan, with the Great Wall as the boundary, kicked off Japan's encroachment on North China. As a result, our patriotic general Mr. Song Zheyuan was heartbroken and said: 'With an army of 300,000, I cannot resist an enemy of 50,000. What a shame and a great disgrace! The situation is like this. What can I say? All I can say is that I am still determined to fight to the end.'"
"General Song kept his promise and launched a protracted battle with the Kwantung Army in Chahar Province. Heroes and patriots from all over the world came together to form the 'Anti-X Allied Army'. General Song blocked the Manchurian Kwantung in the east and resisted in the south. The Central Committee of Nanjing rejected the former chief (Feng Yuxiang) internally, and incorporated the tribes of Tang Yulin, Fang Zhenwu, and Ji Hongchang. They were majestic and dominated the northern land. They are truly heroes of the world."
"The loss of 80% of the province's territory in the Qin-Tang Agreement was not the fault of General Song. It was actually General Qin Dechun's shameless betrayal of the country. Our patriotic heroes must not be implicated just because Qin Dechun was General Song's confidant."
"The Qin-Turk Agreement is behind, and the fictitious He-Mei Agreement is in front. One after the other, the door to North China is wide open, and China is in danger!"
"Northeast China has been 'independent', and North China must also be 'independent'. This is the intention of the Kwantung Army. Doihara Kenji immediately took office and assumed the post of chief of the Peiping Secret Service. Qingmei cooked wine and talked about heroes, saying: 'Wu Peifu and Sun Chuanfang have already As dead bones in the grave, Yan Xishan, Fu Zuoyi, and Han Fuju are actually clowns. Among the many heroes in the world, General Song and Dofei Yuan'er are the only ones!'"
"The people of North China voluntarily self-governed and followed General Song's lead. General Song wore a yellow robe and ascended the throne of North China. He showed his majesty and controlled everything."
"Kenji Doihara prides himself on being smart and makes wedding clothes for others, but he himself is involved in the battle between the Kwantung Army and the Tianjin Army (Japanese garrison army). He rises and falls but returns home sadly. From this point of view, Doihara is not a hero, really. There is only one hero, General Song."
"General Song was not only a military genius, but also an economic expert. He banned the transportation of silver to the south and preserved the prosperity of the north. As for the national monetary tightening and obstructing the implementation of the central legal currency, there were some minor mistakes that are not worth mentioning."
"Last winter, the Japanese army took Hebei with five divisions, Shandong with six divisions, and the navy invaded Qingdao. General Song was ordered to be in danger, and his beloved general Qin Dechun succeeded him as the mayor of Peiping. According to the list provided by Japan, a large-scale search for traitors was carried out in Peking and Tianjin. , the effect is remarkable. In the crisis situation in North China, General Song can be said to have single-handedly supported it, and he can be regarded as the pillar of the country."
"General Song was not afraid of hard work, supported the central government's policy of amity and friendship, acted on behalf of the central government's diplomatic powers, endured humiliation, negotiated with the enemy, and achieved great results through hard work."
"In order to further ease the contradiction between China and Japan, General Song did not hesitate to bear the infamy and win over pro-Japanese elements such as Wang Yitang, Qi Xieyuan, Wang Kemin, Chen Juesheng, and Pan Yugui, and promoted them to serve as political commissars of Hebei and Chacha. It is reported that General Song is negotiating with the Japanese. Expanding economic cooperation between North China, Manchukuo and Japan is a move that benefits the country and the people, and we should applaud it."
"As for suppressing the 129 student movement, setting up machine guns and preparing water dragons, General Song thought he had good intentions and just advised students to study peacefully. More than 30 students were arrested and more than 100 students were injured. This was purely a misunderstanding. It was due to improper measures taken by the military and police.”
"How can you students, workers, and businessmen go on strike from school, go on strike, go on strike, or wantonly slander General Song? This is extremely unwise!"
"The only pillar in the north is General Song!"
"Zhou Hexuan. On June 24, the twenty-fifth year of the Republic of China, in Suzhou."
…
Song Zheyuan calmed down for a while, and finally he still didn't spit out the blood on his chest, but his ears kept ringing, as if a moth was flapping vigorously.
"Every sentence is like a sword, and the sword is bloody. Zhou Mingcheng is really vicious this time!"
Song Zheyuan shook his head and smiled bitterly while holding the newspaper. The article was full of praise, but it told all the scandalous things about him.
It can be summed up in twelve words: unkind, unjust, unfaithful, shameful, hateful and hateful!
What depresses Song Zheyuan the most is that Zhou Hexuan only writes about his bad side and rarely mentions his good side. The minds of literati are so insidious. This article is equivalent to giving Song Zhe and Yuanan the reputation of a traitor, and it cannot be washed away no matter how hard it is washed.
After a while, three people came to the courtyard, namely Lin Shize, Chang Xiaochuan, and Zheng Daoru.
Many people think that Song Zheyuan's chief adviser is Xiao Zhenying, but the ones who can really make the decision are the three in front of him, all of whom are Tianjin elites studying in Japan. Together with Qin Dechun who led the troops, these four people formed the core shogunate of Song Zheyuan.
As for Xiao Zhenying, Yin Tong, Chen Zhongfu, Yin Rugeng and other staff, Song Zheyuan rarely listened to them.
"What are we going to do? Let the three gentlemen talk about it!" Song Zheyuan said distractedly.
Chang Xiaochuan smiled bitterly and said: "This is a shit basin. You can't wash it off even if you pour it on your body. Chairman, please call the whole country to explain, at least show a resolute attitude of resistance."
"It's useless, my Second Master Chang." Song Zheyuan shook his head repeatedly.
Chang Xiaochuan said: "Chengshe and I are old friends. Chengshe and I have recently been cooperating with Zhou Hexuan to run a newspaper. Maybe you can ask him to be the intermediary and ask Zhou Hexuan to write another article and talk about positive information about you."
"Look for Zhang Xueliang or Sun Liangcheng. Zhang Xueliang and Zhou Hexuan are old friends, and Sun Liangcheng and Zhou Hexuan are brothers." Zheng Daoru said about his relationship. He had been with Zhang Zuolin and Sun Liangcheng before, and he was still a bit thin-faced.
Song Zheyuan looked at Lin Shize again: "What do Mr. Lin think?"
Among Song Zheyuan's three major think tanks, Chang Xiaochuan and Zheng Daoru preferred conspiracy and conspiracy. The one who really had an overall view was Lin Shize, who was equivalent to Zhuge Liang's status.
Lin Shize thought for a while and said: "It is only a temporary measure to ask Zhou Hexuan to write another article. If you want to wash away the reputation of the Chairman, you must do something practical and show it to the people of the world."
"How to do it?" Song Zheyuan asked.
Lin Shize said: "In the name of the Hebei-Cha Government Affairs Committee, we will convene a meeting of patriots from North China to discuss plans to save the country. We especially invite reporters from major newspapers, as well as professors and student representatives from universities to participate."
"The Japanese are definitely not happy!" Song Zheyuan said.
Lin Shize smiled and said: "There are many things that make Japanese people unhappy."
Song Zheyuan said: "What if Japan uses this as a reason to provoke troops?"
"Invite Doihara Kenji back to China, and he will help us settle things." Lin Shize came up with a bad idea.
But from Song Zheyuan's point of view, this is a good idea.
Kenji Doihara represents the Japanese Kwantung Army, which wants to divide and dispose of it and engulf North China step by step. The Kwantung Army's mortal enemy was the Tianjin Army (Japanese Tianjin Garrison Army). Kenji Doihara was directly squeezed back to Japan by the Tianjin Army.
In the past, the Tianjin Army was at a lower level than the Kwantung Army and suffered from cowardice. When the Kwantung Army invaded Northeast China, the Tianjin Army also wanted to reap benefits and planned to directly engulf North China.
Nowadays, the Tianjin Army has been upgraded and is on par with the Kwantung Army in terms of level. The Tianjin Army regards North China as its own territory and does not want the Kwantung Army to get involved, and is eager to launch a war of invasion of North China.
At this time, the situation in North China was not only that the Chinese were fighting each other, but the Japanese were also fighting each other.
The Tianjin Army wanted to invade North China urgently, but the Kwantung Army stopped and frantically pulled back the Tianjin Army. Lin Shize just wanted to invite Doihara Kenji back to Peking and use the Kwantung Army to contain the Tianjin Army, so that North China would be safe for the time being.
After Song Zheyuan thought about it carefully, he said: "Then I will write a letter and invite Kenji Doihara to serve as the chief consultant of the Hebei-Cha Government Affairs Committee!"
This position originally belonged to Kenji Doihara.
"Drink poison to quench thirst." Chang Xiaochuan sneered.
Lin Shize asked back: "Do you have a better way?"
Everyone was silent.
Lin Shize added: "Now we are sitting in the city of sleep, only occupying the name of patriotism and resisting Japan. Isn't the Red Army resisting Japan? We can send people to contact us, which can be regarded as foreign aid."
Song Zheyuan was a little moved, but he hadn't made up his mind yet.
Zheng Daoru did not have a good impression of the Red Army. He said: "Whoever you make friends with cannot make friends with the Communist Party. Chairman, think twice."
Chang Xiaochuan smiled and said: "Whatever, one more foreign aid and one more retreat. I think we can make contact with the Red Army first."
In fact, even without the stimulation of Zhou Hexuan's article, Song Zheyuan would secretly contact the Red Army in a few months. He scratched his head and said, "That's all. Which of you has access to the Red Army?"
"No." The three counselors shook their heads in unison.
