Chapter 629 Speech to Young Officers (Part 2)
"After the silence, everyone is welcome to return to their position. I thank you very much. The country will also thank you. All your efforts will never be destroyed..."
Zheng Yong's voice was a little low and hoarse:
"In order to seek justice for Commander He, your companion Cai Jishu did not hesitate to commit suicide in Teacher Yu's home. Stupid, this is the stupidest behavior in my opinion!"
The sudden words made the officers listening to him a little surprised. Zheng Yong looked at these enthusiastic officers and his voice increased significantly:
"Where is the destination of the soldiers? On the battlefield! Fighting with the Japanese, for the independence and freedom of the country, and for the dignity and glory of the nation, death in battle is the most glorious thing!
Suicide? Suicide in your own home? Is it to show off that you are not afraid of death, or for something else? Officers, you are all pillars of the country and the hope of the nation. Death should not die like this!
I respect Cai Jishu's actions very much, but I oppose such actions. How much energy does the country need to cultivate you? Many of you came from Huangpu, and you just died like this. Do you think it is worth it?
I know that Cai Jishu is a person who comes from the guards. In your words, he is a disciple of the emperor and a direct descendant. He is taller than others when he goes out!
I remember that time I was almost beaten to death by the Japanese pirates. In order to seize a position, Cai Jishu personally led his company and charged more than ten times in a row. When I got down, I was injured and eight parts!
What a great officer, who did not die at the gun of the Japanese pirates, gave up his life because of this incident.
I feel sorry for it! If he is still alive now, he can kill more Japanese devils and make more achievements! But a grenade will be gone.
Being loyal to the country, the government, and of course, also being loyal to me, the great commander, is your slogan. I have heard of it, and I am very grateful to you for doing this.
What is true allegiance? It is not to make blind sacrifices at the cost of your own life, but to do things for the country with your own loyalty and blood.
One of you is called, yes, Liu Jinxi, have you come today?"
"Lieutenant Lieutenant and Company Commander of the Guard Division has arrived!"
With this sound, the young officer Liu Jinxi stood up.
It was a little strange, I don’t know why the coach suddenly called his name.
"Liu Jinxi, Liu Jinxi is desperate."
Zheng Yong's words caused a burst of kind laughter, and he asked Liu Jinxi to sit down:
"I heard that once you attacked a Japanese pirate position and attacked several times but couldn't take it down. Later, you took off your clothes and shouted loudly with your bare shirt:
‘For the sake of the commander, charge!’ As a result, the position was captured in one go, but your company was almost completely injured and you were almost killed by a bullet. Is this true?”
"Yes! This bullet is still in my body." Liu Jinxi was quite arrogant when he answered this: "I am not going to take out this bullet, this will be my greatest honor!"
"Okay, it seems that my sign has become a talisman. It will work as soon as you think of it. You can defeat the Japanese positions with a single thought. In this case, each of you will hold a tablet of my immortality to fight in the next battle."
Zheng Yong's words caused laughter again, and Zheng Yong's expression on his face was much more relaxed:
"Liu Jinxi, who doesn't want to live, this is the name you will give you in the future. Very good. This is indeed very good. When fighting, you should be lifeless. This is our greatest magic weapon to win.
But it would be bad if we don’t want our own lives. You can think about it. Cai Jishu thinks that he is worth dying like this, and you also think that he is worth dying like this.
But what will others think? They will think that the people in our third war zone are all madmen, unreasonable madmen, and a group of butchers who ignore other people's precious lives!"
The smile gradually stopped and the tone became more and more severe:
"You always say you are loyal to the general and to me Zheng Yong, but you are not loyal to you. You are trying to kick me into the fire pit.
There are already some rumors outside now, saying that I was instructing this matter, and I don’t want to tell it. If you can save you, all the dirty water will be poured on me alone.
But things are far from that simple. I heard that someone had already stabbed this matter, and the superiors would soon send someone to investigate. I am very worried about some of you.
Once a bright future is ruined in this matter, do you think it is worth it?
Doing things is the same as being a human being. You must be calm and restrained, and don’t turn a good thing into a bad thing with a moment of impulse.
Think more about anything before doing it, use your brain more, and whether you should do it, and what are the consequences after doing it.
The Youth Officer Guards is a whole and an inseparable whole. Before each of you decides to do the same thing, the first thing you need to think about is overall interests.
Without considering the overall interests, I don’t think this organization has much hope.”
Seeing that the officers were listening attentively, Zheng Yong felt that the cold water had almost poured at this time. He paused and suddenly changed:
"However, I think there is still a need for the Young Officer Guardians to exist..."
As soon as these words were spoken, the lower body whispered, and many officers showed excitement on their faces. The young officer guards' order was finally recognized by the commander.
Since the establishment of this organization, although it claims to have 100,000 members, it has never received any official recognition, and the Grand Marshal has remained silent on this issue.
Any organization is eager to be recognized, whether it is social or official. Now the meaning of Dashang's words is to be prepared to recognize the legitimacy of this organization.
Cai Jishu's previous actions were to expand the influence of the Young Officer Guards in the military and the civilians, and to obtain some informal recognition, but now it seems that there are really some problems.
Although the Grand Marshal did not agree with their approach, he seemed to have already been preparing to recognize the organization.
Thinking about the previous actions of the Grand Marshal, it seems that he has always adopted a default attitude. So, is Cai Jishu's death really a bit too much?
When the following discussions became a little less, Zheng Yong continued:
"First of all, it is impossible for the Young Officers Guards to be officially recognized, so I hope that there will be no next time for suicide in the future. I don't want to see any officers die innocently for this.
Secondly, I know that your ultimate goal is to transform our country and finally make the country on the road to prosperity, but never take extreme measures like fascism.
Remember my words, our country has only one leader, that is Mr. Chiang Kai-shek, and our country has only one government, that is the National Government. Anyone who attempts to subvert will be my enemy.
I also heard that you have formulated organizational discipline, nine articles and twenty-eight articles. I think some are more reasonable, while others are more radical, which does not conform to the current situation of our country. Some places need to modify it.
I have also formulated nine articles and twenty-eight regulations, and made some changes to your discipline. Your Executive Committee can discuss it.
If there is no problem, then follow the new discipline..."
The venue was once again boiling, and the general's words had already told these young officers very clearly that the general would personally lead the young officer guards!
This is a major victory for the Young Officers Guardians.
There are so many surprises that have brought to these officers today. First, the Grand Marshal tacitly agreed to the existence of the organization, and then the Grand Marshal directly led the organization of the battle.
Fang Yuxi was the first to stand up and applaud. Then, all the officers stood up and instantly drowned the entire venue.
Soon someone passed the news to the officers waiting outside. Not long after, the cheers of "Long Live" were mixed with the outside, and it clearly reached the venue.
Zheng Yong looked at the officers with a smile, and Fang Yuxi, who was also excited.
Somehow it was beyond his own expectations. When he decided to use this method to regain the leadership of the Young Officers and Guardians, he thought Fang Yuxi, who founded this organization, would be seriously dissatisfied.
But what I didn't expect was that Fang Yuxi seemed to have no intention of jealousy at all. Judging from his expression, he was completely sincerely happy about this.
What kind of person is Fang Yuxi?
Is it a pure fanaticism, sometimes even a little bit unreasonable, and just wants to transform the country in your own way, or is it a subordinate who really only wants to support himself?
But no matter what, I have temporarily solved the problem that Fang Yuxi gave to me.
By taking over the Young Officer Guards, these officers were successfully diverted from their sight, temporarily downplayed the contradictions, and some problems could be temporarily put aside.
But it is only temporary, and these problems will always be solved in the future.
The conflicts between the old subordinates, led by Situ Tianrui Tiedingguo and others, who were called the "Northeast System" by them, and the "Guards System" with the young and strong factions such as Fang Yuxi as the main force.
Will these problems break out between the direct line and the non-direct line, the previous conflict between the Central Army and the local forces, and the conflict between the officers and the local areas?
Once it breaks out, what should you do? Is there any better way to resolve these contradictions before they break out?
What should I do in the future? The War of Resistance Against Japan will be victorious sooner or later, but what should I do when victory comes?
The Young Officer Guards is a large time bomb. Now the remote control is in your own hands, but what great harm will it bring to the country if it loses control one day?
These are problems that you must face and can never be avoided. Many people want to sit in their position, but they don’t know how dangerous this position is.
It's like being on a crater, where volcanoes can swallow people anytime and anywhere.
