The takeover of Shanghai was marked by the establishment of the Shanghai Municipal Party Headquarters of the People's Party and the opportunity of the peaceful handover of He Fenglin to the People's Army.
There is absolutely no way to get to this point. Lu Yongxiang originally wanted to bargain with Zhang Hanqing, even if he kept half of Shanghai. But the situation was unforgiving, because there was another moth behind his back.
Behind Zhejiang is Sun Chuanfang of Fujian. As an embellishment of the Zhili-Fengtian War, he teamed up with Qi Xieyuan to attack Lu Yongxiang during the Jiangsu-Zhejiang War, but they hit a wall at Xianxia Pass.
Xianxia Pass, known as "the key to Zhejiang and the throat to Fujian", has always been a battleground for military strategists. Together with Jianmen Pass, Hangu Pass and Yanmen Pass, it is also known as the four ancient passes in China. Lu Yongxiang relied on it for his courage to calmly participate in the "tripartite anti-straight movement" to compete with Jiangsu's Qi Xieyuan even when Sun Chuanfang was eyeing him.
But all this was ruined by a group leader with personal grudges.
Zhang Guowei, then commander of the artillery regiment of the Second Division of Zhejiang, and Sun Chuanfang were classmates at the Japanese Army Noncommissioned Officer School, and the two had a good personal relationship. Zhang Guowei originally served concurrently as the director of the Zhejiang Bureau of Surveying. However, Lu Yongxiang was dissatisfied because he wanted to employ his cronies and dismissed him from this part-time job. When he was ordered to guard Xianxia Ridge, he privately presented the defense plan to Sun Chuanfang so that he could enter the pass smoothly.
As soon as Xianxia was lost, Sun Chuanfang drove straight to Quzhou, Jinhua, Yiwu, and Zhuji without any obstacles along the way. Lu Yongxiang hurriedly waved his troops back to defend. How could he dare to provoke the People's Army again? Not only that, he ordered He Fenglin, the Songhu military envoy, to let the People's Army march into Shanghai and let him take people back to the provincial capital of Hangzhou to stabilize his family without causing trouble.
Because there is an ambitious Zhejiang Police Chief Xia Chao.
Xia Chao has 10,800 well-equipped armed policemen under his command. Although he is a dwarf less than four feet tall, he is ambitious and always has the ambition to replace Lu. It was well hidden in the beginning, but now there are wolves in front of the Zhejiang Army and tigers in the back. There are loud calls from the central and local governments for Lu Yongxiang to step down, and his heart is beginning to swell.
The rear area is already in chaos, and the provincial capital can no longer be in chaos. It is a good idea to let the old subordinate He Fenglin be based in Hangzhou: anyway, according to the style of the People's Army, if you control a place, you will redeploy your own armed police force. He Fenglin gave up Shanghai, which not only stabilized his family, but also showed his goodwill to the Feng clan. They wouldn't be aggressive anymore, right?
Therefore, the entry of the People's Army into Shanghai has basically eliminated military interference factors and political influence: the leading figures in Shanghai invite the People's Army to enter, wouldn't this work?
In order to make the transition smooth and avoid trouble, He Fenglin was also ordered to take the initiative to appeal to all walks of life in Shanghai, asking them to abide by the law and obey the arrangements and management of the People's Army.
????????????? In fact, there is no need for him to do anything extra. Capital is the most sensitive to changes in the country. As early as when the People's Army occupied Anhui, many business leaders in Shanghai had lost their loyalty to the People's Party. When the war came to Shanghai, the Shanghai Chamber of Commerce, the most influential organization in Shanghai's financial and economic circles, immediately organized a large-scale condolence.
It can be said that although the People's Army did not enter Shanghai at that time, its tentacles had already extended into every corner of Shanghai.
In view of Shanghai¡¯s financial and economic status in China, Zhang Hanqing appointed Liu Shangqing, an important figure in the Feng faction, to serve as Shanghai Municipal Party Committee Secretary. Liu Shangqing once served as the governor of Jilin, and he was also familiar with administration. As for his position as chairman of the Industrial and Commercial Committee, Wang Naibin, who is also a master in the financial industry, was arranged to take over.
The particularity of Shanghai also makes Liu Shangqing walk on thin ice. This 55-year-old veteran of the Feng Clan always stands in the forefront of political and economic needs to help the Feng Clan, and this time is no exception.
Strictly speaking, even though Shanghai is known as the financial center of Asia and the "adventurer's paradise," its current status on the national economic map is not as good as Shenyang, Harbin, or even Changchun. The three provinces of Gaidong have a solid industrial foundation. They have lost a lot in terms of gross national product (there was no such thing in this era) and total industrial output.
??Every party values ??its role because of its influence, especially on foreigners.
Having strength means being confident. If those people in Shanghai are sincere, they can certainly be the icing on the cake; if they are obedient to the new people's power, the Fengcun is fully confident and capable of reshaping a new Shanghai without them, which is nothing more than throwing money!
Zhang Hanqing planned to mobilize a large number of 10,000 armed police forces loyal to the People's Party from Jilin, Hubei, and Shaanxi to form the Shanghai Armed Police Corps, and sent Zhang Tingshu, commander of the 54th Brigade of the 27th Division who grew up in the war, as the major general captain.
Zhang Tingshu is Zhang Zuoxiang's nephew, Zhang Hanqing's best friend, and a fierce general. He was originally wanted to take over the position of commander of the 27th Division selected by Jiang Deng, but he was young and not qualified enough. There were many efforts to get him to be the brigade commander. of.
? ???When so many high-level positions are suddenly vacant, it makes no sense not to involve our own people. Anyway, everyone has suddenly become the king of the center from being "separated in one place", so we always have to mention our own people, right?
¡°After serving as the commander of the Shanghai Armed Police Force for a period of time, and then taking the opportunity to concurrently serve as the Commander of the Armed Police Force in East China, his level will be raised. After he returns to the 27th Division, there will definitely be fewer people gossiping. Today's armed police commanders at all levels are transferred from the military, and the commander-in-chief of each province is at the level of major general. Although the military and police are separated, this only refers to responsibilities, and the transfer of personnel is still very frequent.
Because Zhang Zuoxiang, who is also the commander-in-chief of the Armed Police Force, cannot manage the affairs of so many provinces, the specific affairs of the armed police forces in each province are generally managed by the commanders of the local People's Army. For example, Ji Yiqiao, the commander of the Central China People's Army, is in charge of the three provinces of Hubei, Hunan, and Jiangxi. The Armed Police Force, etc.
Shanghai implemented military control. In this way, the Shanghai Garrison, the Armed Police Corps and Liu Shangqing, as the core of the "Military Control Committee", began to exert influence on the city on behalf of the People's Party.
The Central Financial and Economic Commission sent Zhang Zhenjiu as Zhang Hanqing¡¯s personal representative to Shanghai in advance, and invited leading figures such as Yu Qiaqing, Wang Yiting, and Wu Yunzhai to assume key positions in the newly established Shanghai Finance Commission.
??The national capitalists who were once common people and struggled in the cracks of collusion between government and businessmen finally raised their eyebrows and began to gain considerable political status. This is a huge progress and marks the People's Party's supportive attitude towards national capital.
To reciprocate the favor, Yu Qiaqing also called the "National Unification Committee" in the name of the Shanghai Chamber of Commerce, saying that he was "willing to support the authorities' claims and a unanimous vote," and actively expressed his intention to subscribe for national bonds with a total value of 130 million yuan¡ª¡ª This is also Zhang Hanqing's test of the various forces in Shanghai.
The Feng Faction is really not short of this little money. What is missing is the good response from all walks of life to the People's Army entering Shanghai. If a group of people can show their sincerity at the beginning of taking office, it will set a good example for all walks of life in the government and the opposition, as well as for those who are watching. This means that the People's Party's regime has been recognized.
Of course, although the money is a little less, it is still better than nothing, and we cannot look at these national capitalists with the mentality of nouveau riche. Many people really started their businesses in hardships.
Zhang Hanqing, who is far away in Beijing, spoke highly of this move. He said in a telegram: "The members of the Shanghai Chamber of Commerce are the leaders of China's national bourgeoisie and an important supplement to the economic development of the Republic of China. The central government will continue as always. Properly support the development of national industries and provide political guarantee for their growth."
The People's Party politically affirmed the contribution and legal status of the "Jiang-Zhejiang Consortium" and also gave Shanghai's wavering financial and economic circles a shot in the arm, allowing them to quickly recognize the situation and move closer to the People's Party.
During this period, the People's Party still focused on conquering cities and territories as its primary task. In all provinces controlled by the Feng clique, the secretary of the provincial party committee must be a member of the People's Party. However, in terms of specific governance and administration, the party should open up its channels and appoint people on the basis of merit, and many people from outside the party join the party.
First, the People's Party has risen too fast and there are not enough capable figures who can get the support of the local industrial and commercial circles; second, Zhang Hanqing needs to form a broad united front to achieve national reunification. Even if people outside the party first serve as governors, mayors and other positions, as long as they can stabilize the political situation, and more importantly, as long as the army is in the hands of the People's Party, Zhang Hanqing believes that there will be time to gradually improve it.
good results.
Shanghai is the traditional source of votes for the Kuomintang and the economic base on which it depends for its survival. Seeing some of the original sponsors change their ways, his heart was shaken even more. Hu Hanmin, a veteran Kuomintang general and rightist who stayed in Shanghai, was quite uneasy. He had an instinctive fear of the People's Army capturing Shanghai:
Economically, Shanghai's financial circles are showing disloyalty to the central government controlled by the People's Party; politically, Sun Yat-sen, as the Prime Minister of the Kuomintang, is rumored to give up the easy-to-get presidential position, and is willing to do railway construction with "no power or responsibility" The chairman of the committee will bring the development of the Kuomintang to a screeching halt;
Militarily, the People's Party has the most powerful armed forces in China and has completely controlled the situation. However, the original National Revolutionary Base in Guangzhou has been captured by the People's Army. Now Shanghai, an important economic town, has also been lost. In terms of military, politics and economy, it can be said that The Kuomintang has no room for maneuver.
Under this circumstance, the "legendary love" and "China (Chiang Zhongzheng) and the United States (Song Meiling) cooperation" that occurred in official history naturally had no ripples, and they even had no chance of contact at all. In this time and space, Chiang Kai-shek's political backing has been lost, and the future is difficult to predict. Soong Meiling would never marry this politically frustrated man and a military husband of the Republic of China - Colonel Chiang Kai-shek.
The military occupation and the defection of economic giants marked the People's Army's complete victory in Shanghai, China's largest city. At this point, the last remaining power of the Zhili Clan has been eliminated, and the People's Party has controlled most of China, including all economically wealthy provinces.
At the same time, the top leaders of the People's Party in the north, headed by Zhang Hanqing, are already planning to set up a diplomatic research committee to study steps to abolish unequal treaties and plan to declare tariff independence.
In December, the national seal was enacted and a smoking ban was implemented. Zhang Hanqing went on a tour of Beijing, Tianjin, and Reich to review the military, and inspect local politics, religion, and people's livelihood.
When the trend of China's reunification was approaching, the United States took the lead in recognizing China's tariff independence. All diplomatic countries agreed, and only Japan was extremely opposed. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com)Some regions include all economically wealthy provinces.
