Chapter 44 Graduation Ceremony

After the lights of the Nanjing Army Officer School were turned off, it was forbidden to walk around at will. After Zhang Zhizhong's adjutant Li Tao asked about the command that night, he took a flashlight to escort Zhang Xuewu back to the dormitory. Li Tao was born as Zhang Zhizhong's personal bodyguard. He had never seen Zhang Zhizhong attach so much attention to a student, but he followed Zhang Zhizhong shuttled between the bullets on the front line of Shanghai. He didn't understand political matters, but he still understood more or less about military matters. Although Zhang Xuewu did not go to the battlefield, his analysis seemed to make him return to the battlefield of gunfire.

"When fighting in Shanghai, you have to treat yourself as a dead man. It is said that my shells are like rain! If you catch a heavy artillery howitzer, there is often a squad and a skeleton. Even if you are lucky enough to avoid the shrapnel, you can be shocked to death in the trenches. Your eyes are congested, your eyes are pale, and your ears are swollen and bleeding!" Li Tao said as he walked, as if he were talking to himself.

After passing a few sentinels, after interrogation by the patrol, Li Tao sent Zhang Xuewu to the door of the dormitory. Li Tao hesitated for a moment and said, "Bron commander Zhang, do you think we still want to fight a big war with me in Shanghai? Is it true?"

Zhang Xuewu didn't know how to answer Li Tao for a moment, and sighed slightly, "I hope is not true!"

Half a year's time can be said to be fleeting. In addition to the cakes sent from Bailemen and Li Han, who occasionally came to visit, Zhang Xuewu's study life was very calm. Li Xinkai came from the new mixed first brigade stationed in Tianjin. Recently, the army has frequently been inspected by members of the military and political department and key members of the Beiping army branch. Zhang Xueliang, chairman of the branch, personally visited for the second time.

In the daily study, Zhang Xuewu always maintains his position and attitude clearly. Most of the students in the class are Guangxi, Cantonese and Jin military officers. When it comes to key members of the central government, their words are naturally not respectful, and there are even ridiculed. At this time, Zhang Xuewu will always refute the other party. There is no skin. Some people even suspect that Zhang Xuewu is not a graduate of the Northeast Lecture Martial Arts Hall at all, but a graduate of Nanjing Officers School. For a leader, a national nation, and a loyal Zhang Xuewu has become the object of respect from the students in the class. In addition, his gossip with Zhou Ying, all kinds of Under the degree, envy and hatred, he has not made friends, but there are a lot of enemies!

In fact, Zhang Xuewu also has his own distress. This is the Nanjing Army Officer School. Even if Chiang Kai-shek goes down, he still has to find a name to attend the opening ceremony. It is the foundation of Chiang Kai-shek. Chiang Kai-shek will be stupid enough to let the miscellaneous cards of your various factions come here to make a big series? Obviously, it is impossible. Everyone's words and behaviors in private are naturally in the eyes of the secret agents. From the inside of the students to the tea room in the dormitory, the cleaners, and even the female middle school teachers who often come here at the school gate, Zhang Xuewu believes that private soliciting and soliciting discord is also indispensable, which is Chiang Kai-shek's usual method.

Bai Chongxi, Li Zongren and Yan Xishan are not fools. They are either sent by hardcore confidants or insignificant people. As you like, everyone will accompany you!

On July 7, 1932, in the auditorium of Nanjing Army Officer School, Chiang Kai-shek and others, then Chairman of the National Political Axe Military Commission, sat on the rostrum. Zhang Xuewu and others sat under the stage and held their breath. Together with the eighth and ninth cadets sitting in the back as a foil, they also looked solemnly and solemnly!

Zhang Zhizhong, who is in military uniform and leather shoes, stepped to the front desk. As the host of the graduation ceremony, Zhang Zhizhong can be said to be in high spirits!

Chiang Kai-shek, who was sitting on the stage, looked at the students under the stage with a smile. In Chiang Kai-shek's eyes, the students here today are the cornerstone of the future Chinese National Defense Force!

Zhang Xuewu found that Chiang Kai-shek was still sitting next to him in a white suit with a slightly Chinese face, with thick eyebrows and tiger eyes? Wang Zhaoming? The word Jingwei? Zhang Xuewu suddenly remembered a classic sketch of Chen Peisi and Zhu Shimao in later generations, Chen Peisi's sentence Zhu Shimao! Zhu Shimao! Have you also become a traitor, Han Jun, with thick eyebrows and big eyes?

Chiang Kai-shek, who was sitting next to Wang Zhaoming, kept wiping his sweat with a handkerchief at this moment. The brim of the military hat had been soaked with sweat, but considering the image, Chiang Kai-shek was still calm. The sky in Nanjing in July was as hot as a bra. Wang Zhaoming, who was calm in tulle, made Chiang Kai-shek jealous. Already.

This is Wang Zhaoming's first public appearance when he secretly returned to China. Although Wang Zhaoming has no important position, in order to show his magnanimity and generosity, he must treat Wang Zhaoming well. Without Wang Zhaoming, he could not completely defeat Hu Hanmin's gang of thieves. Wang Zhaoming only stayed secretly for two days and went to Europe again. In his Before the military and political power dispute ended, he still didn't welcome Wang Zhaoming's return.

Especially Wang Zhaoming's dark and thick hair, which is five years older than himself. In the previous period, he customized several hair sets that imitated Wang Zhaoming's hairstyle, but they were all rejected by him. Out of the so-called disdain or jealousy, Chiang Kai-shek did not want the outside world to think that he was imitating Wang Zhaoming, Wang Zhaoming. How can Zhaoming and He De deserve his emulation? Soldiers naturally have the style of soldiers, standing like a pine, sitting like a bell, and walk like the wind! Even though the sweat soaked through the back of his clothes, Chiang Kai-shek still sat firmly like a mountain.

Chiang Kai-shek's eyes swept over the students in the first row. For those who seemed to be lazy, especially a few of the fat people who sat and swayed, what kind of military manner is this? Chiang Kai-shek felt the blue veins in his temple jumping uncontrollably.

In this period, there are not many people in the real Huangpu Department in the special advanced training class of Lu University, and several of them are also irrelevant departments to make up the number. What he did was to block the mouths of Bai Chongxi and Li Zongren to show his generosity. I, Jiang, did not turn you away, did I? It's you who are disappointing. What can I do?

Chiang Kai-shek's eyes finally fell on Zhang Xuewu. Zhang Xuewu, who had a straight waist, was already sweating in the sultry auditorium, but he didn't even move his hands. His hands in white gloves were pressed on his knees, and his eyes were drentic!

Chiang Kai-shek nodded slightly with satisfaction. This is a soldier. It is not in vain for his own training and weight. Zhang Xuewu's ability to come to the Army University to participate in this special advanced training class shows his attitude, and Chiang Kai-shek appreciates Zhang Xuewu's comments very much

After a series of ceremonies, Chiang Kai-shek came to the stage empty-handed, looked around at the more than a thousand students below and nodded with a smile and satisfaction, "Very good! Seeing your majestic figures, I can see the tomorrow of China's national defense forces! The current Central Army is the future National Defense Force! Our country's vast territory needs your guard in the future!"

When talking about exciting words, Chiang Kai-shek waved his fists. In the warm applause, Chiang Kai-shek raised his hand slightly to signal everyone to be still, and then said in a low voice, "Now our country is suffering from internal and external troubles. Internal worry is the disease and toxins in our body. The red bandits in Jiangxi are our internal worries. Why do we think of internal injustice? It's been 21 years since the Republic of China! Comrades! A large number of people in our party and army still can't see the situation clearly, which is very terrible. This is the short and superficial political vision! Until today, there is no unified national defense army in the political axe of the Republic of China. Let's take a look at the military uniforms of these students in the front row. I'm afraid there are no less than five or six kinds, right?

Chiang Kai-shek paused with anxiety and said, "Now some people sing a high-profile protest and drive me out of the northeast. I said this is very good. I raised my hands to support it. As the chairman of the military committee, the Central Army under my command should not allow it. I asked him to send troops to pay for it. He said that he had difficulties. This army of thousands of troops occupied The officials from the two provinces began to complain to me? In Japan, all the troops are under the command of the unified military organization! And where we? How many provinces are there in the country? This year, only seven provinces have paid taxes to the national government axe. The taxes of the national government axe can only be seen in the account book, not the money! Which country in the world is supported by borrowing money from businessmen? I, Jiang, am a soldier. Would I be willing to attend those drinks to be stained with the smell of copper? I prefer to lead you to the blood-stained horse leather shroud in the battlefield! The Fifth Army of the Battle of Shanghai stained the battlefield with blood. Why didn't it tell the people that the Central Army was the mainstay? I'm afraid of giving myself an excuse to expand the war endlessly! So I also want to emphasize that if you are foreign, you must first settle down! Unifying the armed forces of the whole country, the power of the general government belongs to the national political axe, which is our urgent delay!"

Compared with Chiang Kai-shek's shocking speech, Wang Zhaoming and others can be said not to listen to the speech later! Because the security work is very closely deployed, just like the speeches at previous important meetings, there are only the minutes of the confidential secretaries present, and there is no report.
