    In response to the incident where Tang Qiuli shot and killed Tang Enbo, commander of the Eighth Army Corps of the Central Army, and 28 major general-level officers in Xiangfan, Hubei Province, and dismissed the Eighth Army Corps, Chairman Chiang convened a plenary meeting of the Military Committee at his official residence to discuss how to deal with this incident.  The incident is actually about showing an attitude. For such a big matter, the government has to express its stance.  (**Novel hand typed)

    These central officials are all veterans who have been in the officialdom for many years. They have been refined through ups and downs. It is obvious that this matter is either one or the other, either Tang Qiuli did the right thing, or Tang Qiuli did it.  It was too much. Without knowing the depth of the water, no one took the lead. Chairman Chiang was so angry that he almost scolded his mother for these old fritters.

    At this moment, a man stood up, and everyone was quite surprised. It was none other than Chen Guofu, the Organization Minister of the Central Party Committee, who is also the boss behind the veteran spy organization Central Unification Bureau. This man is usually quite low-key and has a very low profile.  To be polite, try to hide everything behind the scenes, unlike He Yingqin, who is afraid that others will not know that he is one of the most powerful people in the government.

    Even so, who doesn't know that the Chen family brothers, who are in charge of the organizational power, have a popular saying, "The Jiang family is under the Chen family party." This shows that the power of the Chen family brothers in the National Government has increased since the last meeting of the Standing Committee of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China.  , discussing how to deal with the Xi'an Incident, Chen Guofu made the wrong decision and sat down on He Yingqin's bench, causing a big stumble.

    When Chairman Chiang escaped from danger in Xi'an, He Yingqin was pursued to the end by Tang Qiuli and expelled from the center of power of the government. Since Chen Guofu was not the mastermind, Chairman Chiang did not go into too much detail and just ignored him for a long time. Chen Guofu lived in seclusion and was cautious in his actions and words.  , even more like being in the clouds and mist. Why is this happening today?  The officials all had questions in their minds.

    Chen Guofu was the first to stand up to express his opinion. The officials pricked up their ears to see what the organization minister had to say. Chen Guofu glanced at everyone and said in a calm tone: "Chairman, everyone here, in my opinion,  The central government cannot remain silent on this matter. Even if Tang Enbo deserves to be killed, Tang Qiuli, who is the vice chairman of the Military Commission, handles this matter in a big violation of procedures. "

    As soon as he said this, everyone became interested, knowing that this was just the opening remarks, and the drama was still to come. Chen Guofu continued: "On the surface, it seems that Vice Chairman Tang is doing this to enforce military discipline. If we look into it more carefully, I'm afraid there is no  It's so simple, just imagine that Tang Qiuli today has hundreds of thousands of well-equipped and well-trained troops, controlling half of the country in the north, and his strength can almost rival the central branch. If it is allowed to develop, the consequences will be dire! "

    "Killing Tang Enbo and disbanding the Eighth Army. Even if the evidence is conclusive, this matter should be submitted to the National Military Commission for handling. And he only informed the Military Commission after finishing the matter. This is called killing first and reporting later. It puts Chairman Chiang and the Military Commission under  If other local officials follow this policy, where does the authority of the central government lie? On the surface, Tang is enforcing military discipline. In fact, he is killing senior generals without authorization and annexing the central army to strengthen his own power.  The strength and intentions are worthy of everyone¡¯s vigilance!¡±

    After Chen Guofu finished speaking, he sat down with a natural expression. There was silence in the conference room. Everyone couldn't help but feel nervous. Why did Chen Guofu suppress Tang Qiuli like this? You know, these words were cruel and poisonous enough, but  Something that could kill Tang Qiuli could stab Chairman Jiang directly into his lungs. The old man hated this the most.

    Chairman Chiang, who was sitting at the top, remained calm. He had already seen the reactions of these senior officials. Chen Guofu's words really touched his psychological bottom line. This is a person who is used to being the boss and will never allow others to do so.  In China, someone who was his equal appeared to threaten his authority. Chen Guofu hit his mark.

    However, he did not completely believe Chen Guofu's words. You must know that Tang Qiuli had many opportunities to replace him. The most typical one was the Xi'an Incident, but he did not do so, and he did not believe that Tang Qiuli would do this.  From the outbreak of the Sino-Japanese War to the present, Tang Qiuli's actions also proved his judgment. The reason why Chen Guofu did this should have his own purpose.

    But Chen Guofu's words still made Chairman Jiang feel very uncomfortable. It felt like he had eaten something unclean and his chest was stuffy. He coughed dryly and asked: "In Guofu's opinion, this  How should we deal with the matter?" Chen Guofu replied thoughtfully: "In my opinion, we can follow the method of luring and killing Han Fuju!"

    Chen Guofu's words were like a cold wind that penetrated the bone marrow. In the conference room, the temperature dropped to zero in an instant. All the officials were stunned and trembled in their hearts. Cold sweat broke out on their foreheads. They never expected that Chen Guofu would propose  Such a method made everyone feel confused for a moment, and they all turned their attention to Chairman Chiang.

    Chairman Jiang sat up straight in shock.??, a pair of eyes, staring at Chen Guofu like an eagle, as if to see through his heart. Under Chairman Chiang's gaze, Chen Guofu felt guilty. The carefully planned Haozhou operation ended in failure. He  His hatred for Tang Qiuli was growing day by day. Today, he had such an opportunity and he couldn't miss it.

    However, when the first shot was fired, he did not get the response he had imagined. Now that he was alone, he suddenly felt a little regretful that he had acted too hastily. However, after the words had been spoken, he suppressed his inner anxiety and pretended to be calm.  Turn your eyes towards Chairman Chiang.

    Chairman Jiang's inner shock was stronger than anyone else's. Chen Guofu's words were beyond his expectation. He had thought of all the ways Chen Guofu wanted to say, such as transferring Tang Qiuli to the Central Committee through overt promotion and covert demotion.  Come, or transfer the troops of the National Army from the north to the south, and put them under the supervision of the Central Army, or even imitate the method of dealing with Zhang Xueliang and put Tang Qiuli under house arrest in Nanjing. He could accept all these, but Chen Guofu  He even proposed to kill Tang Qiuli.

    This is something that Chairman Chiang absolutely cannot accept. Tang Qiuli is not Zhang Xueliang. Zhang Xueliang¡¯s Northeastern Army is a homeless dog, a rootless duckweed living in a foreign land. He himself has Zhang Xueliang under house arrest. He can use the strategy of division and bribery to disintegrate the Northeastern Army.  No matter how hard they are, they won't be able to make waves.

    Tang Qiuli is not like Han Fuju. Han Fuju abandoned Shandong and fled without firing a shot. He almost caused his own troops on the Songhu battlefield to be caught in a double attack by the Japanese army. His troops were in name only, and he was a mere commander without any challenge.  Capital, besides, he fled before fighting, and the evidence was conclusive. Not only was he killed Han Fuju, but no one blamed him. On the contrary, the people of the country applauded, which played a significant role in inspiring the people's anti-Japanese sentiment.

    Tang Qiuli now has a strong army and strong horses. The troops have strong centripetal force and cohesion. His subordinates are all generals who are good at fighting and extremely loyal. Disintegration, bribery and inducement will not work. More importantly, Tang Qiuli is in the north, blocking it for himself.  With the Japanese army of one million, if Tang Qiu wanted to shake hands with the Japanese and propose the partition of China, the Japanese would give up northern China to him without hesitation and use all their power against themselves.

    The senior members of the military committee were obviously shocked by Chen Guofu's words. There was no guarantee that they did not have a close personal relationship with Tang Qiuli. Once Chen Guofu's words reached Tang Qiuli's ears, the consequences would be unimaginable, even for Tang Qiuli.  If he is passive and sabotage, the southern front will soon be tight. This Chen Guofu has failed to accomplish anything but failed. What kind of heart is hidden under his seemingly loyal and restrained appearance?  Why did he insist on taking action against Tang Qiuli? What was the reason?  In the future, pay more attention to him.

    Thinking of this, Chairman Chiang suddenly changed his color, slammed the table, and reprimanded loudly: "Minister Chen, as an important official of the government and a senior cadre of the party, you actually said such words to a man who has outstanding military exploits and fought on the anti-Japanese battlefield.  The mainstay general and the deputy chairman of the Military Commission have murderous intentions. You must be responsible for what you said today!"

    Speaking of this, Chairman Chiang looked distressed and an unhealthy blush appeared on his face, "All evidence shows that Tang Enbo deserves to be killed. At this moment when all the people are fighting bloody battles with the Japanese invaders, as a senior general, he did not fight  If you escape first, lose the city and land, and put the battle situation into extreme danger, you should be killed. Vice Chairman Tang made a prompt decision. In an emergency, he should take action.
