Chapter 110: Colonel Xu, you win, I... resign!
At the 25th Army Headquarters, one person was very calm, while the other was anxiously running around.
"Commander, you must not trust that guy surnamed Xu. I think we should just arrest them and then force the 1st and 2nd Divisions to retreat..."
The person who spoke was the anxious and angry brigade commander Ji Ankang. Wang Jialie, who was sitting upright, frowned and did not express anything.
At this time, the guards came running!
"Report! They are outside the military headquarters..." The guard hesitated to speak.
"Speak! Why are you hesitating?" Ji Ankang could no longer hold back.
"Report! They set up a table outside the military headquarters...for hot pot...and said they'd invite the commander to enjoy the moon and hot pot..."
Ji Ankang got angry when he heard this.
"Damn it! They don't even take us seriously..."
On the other side, Wang Jialie's eyes suddenly lit up. He was so brave that he dared to walk into the enemy camp alone!
After weighing the pros and cons, the other party already controls two divisions. They are so confident and must be confident... Finally, he sighed.
"Alas! What's coming will eventually come. Ankang, let's go! We can't be rude and go meet Colonel Xu Shengze..."
------------------
Outside the 25th Army headquarters, a group of Guizhou soldiers stood in formation, surrounding the three men. Although they held their guns, they swallowed their saliva desperately. "Oh my god! What kind of hot pot is this? Why does it smell so good?"
The encirclement was remarkably calm. There was a small table, and Xu Zhenhua was sitting at the table, his face full of excitement.
"Come on, come on! Master Bai, beef tripe hot pot requires careful preparation..."
As he spoke, he used his chopsticks to pick up the tripe and put it into Bai Zhanghui's bowl. He Zhichong didn't forget either. Both of them had very rich expressions, embarrassed and helpless, but they still picked up the chopsticks with both hands...
You have to use both hands, and wear handcuffs!
Bai Zhanghui was stunned when he took the steaming tripe into his mouth, completely forgetting that his life was hanging by a thread...
After a while, Bai Zhanghui came back to his senses and was still very worried. Commander Xu said that he asked them to wear handcuffs so that they could see Commander Wang, but he always felt that it was not reliable.
"Sir, I feel this move is too risky. If Commander Wang is determined to do something, I'm afraid the three of us won't be able to leave the 25th Army!"
Xu Zhenhua did not answer when he heard this, but instead looked at He Zhichong who was eating voraciously.
"Commander He, you're a veteran of the Tongzi clique. Besides following orders, have your Commander Wang ever initiated any of the battles he fought? Also, have you ever seen him order the killing of anyone from your Tongzi clique, or any other political enemies?"
He Zhichong was stunned when he heard this.
Guizhou Province was once ruled by the Tongzi Clan. After the death of the first leader, Zhou Xicheng, he was succeeded by Zhou's brother-in-law, Mao Guangyu. Mao was wary of Wang, leading to the Mao-Wang dispute, which ultimately saw Wang emerge victorious...
Over the years, Commander Wang has not been like his predecessor, who would take the initiative to seize territory and provoke war...
Even though those old men from the Tongzi faction often rebelled, Commander Wang never killed them!
Xu Zhenhua smiled silently when he saw this. He Zhichong's reaction once again confirmed his guess.
Originally he also thought that Wang Jialie was an old warlord, but one thing changed his mind.
After becoming a celebrity, Commander Wang dared to openly criticize policy mistakes. This wasn't just a matter of courage...
From this, we can see that Wang Jialie is a man of strong character, not afraid of power, and has the people in his heart...
The most important thing is, what does Lao Chang think of Wang Jialie?
"Although Wang Jialie is an honest man, he doesn't understand politics. He allows his wife to interfere in government affairs and flaunt her influence everywhere, making Guizhou Province look very unremarkable."
Damn it! Can I trust what Old Chang said?
Xu Zhenhua saw the problem at a glance.
After all, Wang Jialie was a provincial governor. Lao Chang did not dare to kill him, nor could he kill him. If Wang was killed, the warlords in other provinces would naturally feel the pain.
The purpose of Old Chang's words was naturally to discredit Wang and to force him to hand over power with a legitimate reason!
As for allowing his wife to interfere in politics, it was true, but it was also a helpless move by Wang Jialie. Because Lao Chang was funding Wang's political enemies, the Tongzi diehards, Wang had to support a counter-force, and his wife's family, the Tongren Gentry Group, became the first choice.
The problem is, the political game becomes distorted when it comes to Old Chang's mouth. She has a mouth to criticize others but no mouth to criticize herself. The head of the four major families is surnamed Song, and there are many concubines in the Bai Mansion who interfere in politics!
When Xu Zhenhua thought of Lao Chang, he became extremely angry.
This old coin says that the chaos between the two factions in Guizhou Province was all caused by him. He used the whole world to control the princes.
No matter who becomes the president of Guizhou Province, Old Chang will definitely support the opposition in Guizhou Province. The first one was Wang Jialie, and later it was You Guocai...
The purpose is to create chaos in Guizhou Province so that they can take advantage of the situation...
All in all, Wang Jialie is truly unlucky. He's accomplished nothing in his three years as head of Guizhou Province. There's nothing he can do about it. Nanjing is stirring up trouble from above, the Tongzi clique is causing trouble from below, and even the Tongren clique, which he helped support, is holding him back...
Xu Zhenhua found Wang Jialie's behavior strange. As a high-ranking official, couldn't he see Nanjing's ambitions? He surrendered military power, likely out of frustration, but also because he didn't want Guizhou Province to continue to be in chaos. After all, with the central army's presence, Guizhou Province was at least less chaotic.
...
Xu Zhenhua permed a piece of beef, his eyes shining with excitement.
It doesn’t matter now, Wang Jialie, it’s your blessing to meet me!
And, dear Chang, you spent eight years messing up Guizhou Province, and you succeeded. But I'll reap the fruits of your victory for you! Thank you!
------------------
Wang Jialie walked slowly to the entrance of the military department with his hands behind his back, as if strolling in the garden, with Ji Ankang following closely behind him.
As soon as they appeared, Bai and He immediately stood up...
Wang Jialie didn't say anything. Ji Ankang rushed out from behind him, walked directly to the table, took out a pistol, and pointed it at Bai He and the other two.
"You two bastards! The commander has always treated you well, yet you two actually betrayed him!"
Bai and He were quite nervous. Ji Ankang had a hot temper and might really shoot. He immediately looked at Xu Zhenhua with a bitter taste in his mouth.
Xu Zhenhua didn't even move, just lowered his head and continued to eat hot pot.
"Commander Wang, please take a seat!"
Wang Jialie, who was not far away, was slightly stunned. The other party was very confident!
Before he could say anything, Ji Ankang, who was ignored, could no longer bear it and pulled the bolt of his gun.
"Commander, the Central Army doesn't take us seriously at all. They're so rude! Just say the word, and I'll deal with these two traitors first, and then deal with this kid!"
After he finished speaking, Xu Zhenhua finally raised his head, took out a napkin and gently wiped the corner of his mouth!
"Guang Banyi, let me remind you, I promised the two division commanders that I would let them make great achievements in the anti-Japanese war. So if you want to kill them, you have to get past me first!"
Xu Zhenhua's tone was very calm, but when Bai He heard it, they both trembled, and something seemed to be touched in their hearts.
Ji Ankang turned the gun and pointed it at Xu Zhenhua. He really couldn't stand this kid; he was too arrogant.
"You bastard! You're just a small colonel, but you're so arrogant! Fine! I'll grant your wish..."
Before he could finish his words, Ji Ankang suddenly had more than a dozen red spots on his body...
The brigadier general was in shock, and Xu Zhenhua calmly picked up the walkie-talkie.
"Damn it! Do you think what I say is bullshit? Commander Wang won't touch us. I don't need your protection. Get out of here..."
"Yes!"
Soon, the red dot on Ji Ankang's body disappeared, and in the distance, more than a dozen lights were faintly seen lighting up. They were cars...
At this moment, he was dumbfounded, holding the gun, not knowing whether to put it down or continue holding it. He dared not act rashly again. Who knew if the other party had completely withdrawn!
In the end, it was Wang Jialie who rescued him...
...
The guards dispersed, leaving only a table and five people gathered around it, eating hot pot. Five pairs of chopsticks were stirring the pot furiously...
But no one spoke...
...
Finally, after Lai Xi delivered the fat beef for the fifth time, Wang Jialie spoke, his tone revealing helplessness, but also a sense of relief!
"Colonel Xu, you win, I... resign!"
The silent confrontation was won, but Xu Zhenhua did not feel happy at all. Instead, he said solemnly.
"Commander Wang, you misunderstood. I didn't ask you to resign! I want you to... oppose Chang'e..."
"what?"
