The Rise of the Writers of the Republic of China

   After chatting about the history of the United States, Zhang Xueliang then talked about the domestic situation: "Mr. Zhou, what do you think of the current situation between the North and the South?"

   Zhou Hexuan said with a smile: "I said last night that the north and the south are fighting endlessly. Whoever stabilizes the inside first will win."

  There are contradictions among the major warlords in Beiyang, and there are factional struggles within the warlords themselves. Zhang Xueliang himself suffered the loss of the infighting, and he was deeply touched by this. He said, "I know the Beiyang side, but what's the situation in the south? Please explain in detail sir."

"Let's talk about the inside of the Kuomintang first," Zhou Hexuan analyzed. "After Mr. Zhongshan's death, Hu Hanmin and Liao Zhongkai had the highest prestige. Mr. Liao was assassinated suddenly last year, and it was found out that it was Mr. Hu's cousin who did it. Does the young master know about it?"

   "I know." Zhang Xueliang nodded.

   Zhou Hexuan smiled: "The two people with the highest prestige in the Kuomintang Party, one has been assassinated and the other has been forced to leave the Soviet Union. Who is the biggest beneficiary?"

   Zhang Xueliang's eyes widened: "You said the real murderer was Jiang..."

   "I didn't say it, no one can tell." Zhou Hexuan shook his head and smiled. This is really an unsolved case, and even 50 years later, there are different opinions.

   Zhang Xueliang said: "Then tell me what the situation is now."

   Zhou Hexuan gave a detailed introduction to the internal conflicts in the south today without any personal touch. This information has been thoroughly researched in the future, but at this moment it is like looking at flowers in a fog.

  It was noon soon, Zhang Xueliang asked the servant to bring the food into the study, and chatted with Zhou Hexuan while eating.

   "Mr. is truly a prodigy, and he has such insight into the situation at home and abroad." Zhang Xueliang put down his chopsticks, admiring him, and was extremely excited.

   Zhou Hexuan pretended to smile and said: "Actually, a lot of information can be seen in the newspapers, and you can understand it with a little analysis."

   Zhang Xueliang shook his head and said, "Not everyone can do it."

   Zhou Hexuan smiled and did not speak, thinking in his heart how to take care of himself. He absolutely cannot disclose many information within our party. Zhang Xueliang is still a reactionary warlord, and he must hold the butcher's knife high.

"Aha!"

   While talking, Zhang Xueliang became addicted to smoking again, yawning and beckoning to the adjutant.

   Soon Gu Ruiyu came in with a smoking set. Seeing Zhang Xueliang couldn't wait to strike a match, she said distressedly: "Master, you still have to quit smoking."

  Zhang Xueliang exhaled a mouthful of smoke, with an intoxicated expression on his face, he sighed after enjoying it for a long time and said, "Oh, why don't I want to quit? It's easier said than done."

  Gu Ruiyu said: "I asked foreign doctors and said that injection of morphine can help you quit smoking."

   "Really?" Zhang Xueliang was quite moved.

   Zhou Hexuan seized the opportunity of meritorious service and hurriedly stopped: "Don't!"

   "Why?" Zhang Xueliang and Gu Ruiyu both looked at him strangely.

   Today, let alone the Chinese, even Western medical scientists only know that opium is harmful, but they do not clearly recognize the harm of morphine.

   Zhou Hexuan explained: "Morphine is more addictive than opium, and it is more troublesome to quit."

  Gu Ruiyu didn't doubt that Zhou Hexuan was lying, so he lowered his head and said dejectedly, "What should we do then?"

   Zhou Hexuan said: "It's simple, if the young marshal wants to smoke a lot, just tie him up, and he can quit completely in two or three months."

   This is what New China did to get rid of opium, and the effect is very obvious. For example, Li Shoumin later became addicted to smoking because of writing novels. After 20 years of smoking guns, he returned to normal after being taught by our party for two months.

   Zhang Xueliang and Gu Ruiyu both smiled bitterly, who would dare to persuade the young marshal when he became addicted to smoking? Not to mention tied up.

   Well, there are people who dare. When Du Yuesheng helped Zhang Xueliang quit smoking, he forced him to play Bound Play, and the young marshal was very grateful to him.

   Zhang Xueliang is very eager to quit smoking. Historically, he will ask a doctor to inject morphine in two months. The result is that he successfully quit opium, but he became addicted to morphine, which is beyond regret.

   "Ow!"

  Zhang Xueliang smashed the smoking gun violently, gritted his teeth and said to the adjutant: "Heru, next time I am addicted to smoking again, you will tie me up. I can't untie it even if I call for help, do you hear? This is a military order!"

The    adjutant hesitated for a few seconds, then suddenly raised his hand to salute the army: "Yes!"

   Zhou Hexuan looked on with cold eyes. With Zhang Xueliang's perseverance, it is difficult to say whether he can successfully quit smoking.

   Zhang Xueliang asked the adjutant and Gu Ruiyu to step down, and said sincerely, "Mr. Zhou, are you willing to be my confidential secretary?"

  Confidential secretary is much more advanced than Russian secretary.

   But Zhou Hexuan resolutely did not want to go into troubled waters, and politely refused: "Young Commander, forgive my limited ability and dare not take on heavy responsibilities."

If    was replaced by Chu Yupu, he must have been angry and cursed. But Zhang Xueliang was just a little disappointed, and sighed: "Forget it, since Mr. Zhou is unwilling, I will not force it. I will have more opportunities to ask Mr. for advice in the future."

   Zhang Xueliang is very fond of learning. He has learned a lot from Guo Songling, including loving the country and the people and hating Japan. Well, you heard right, Zhang Xueliang hates the Japanese, and he has long seen Japan's attempts and threats to the Northeast.

   But hate is one thing, the Japanese are really calling, hehe.

   Later, Zhang Xueliang became fascinated by the red theory. His several confidential secretaries after the 1930s were all traitors to our party. He understood Das Kapital better than many party members.

   Here is the weirdness. Zhang Xueliang very much agrees with the red theory, but he is very afraid of it, and the contradiction is extreme.

   Zhou Hexuan suddenly asked, "What are the plans of the young marshal?"

   Zhang Xueliang was stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly: "What can I plan?"

   Zhou Hexuan said, "It's better to stay in the ya within a few years with peace of mind. A government that makes a difference and does not threaten."

   "How?" Zhang Xueliang realized that Zhou Hexuan was giving him advice.

   Zhou Hexuan smiled and said, "Run a newspaper."

   "Run a newspaper?" Zhang Xueliang was stunned.

   "You see which party in the south doesn't run a newspaper? Public opinion is people's hearts, people's hearts are destiny," Zhou Hexuan pointed to the ceiling, "Those things the commander did in Peiping were very unpopular."

   Zhang Xueliang nodded: "It's really too much to send troops to surround Peking University."

   Zhou Hexuan added: "There is still running a school."

   "Do you want to run a university?" Zhang Xueliang asked.

   Zhou Hexuan shook his head and said, "Run primary schools and implement basic education. Can the young marshal still remember how powerful Germany is?"

   "It's the education that should be run." Zhang Xueliang followed his kindness.

   The most important thing is that Zhang Xueliang is in a very embarrassing situation now. In name, he is the commander-in-chief of the coalition forces, but in fact he cannot control the military power. He does not even dare to contact his former old subordinates.

   Zhou Hexuan's suggestion, on the surface, said that he should run a newspaper or a school, but in fact it was to raise his hopes, and it would not attract Zhang Zuolin's fear.

   "Thank you sir for your advice." Zhang Xueliang said sincerely, and he already regarded Zhou Hexuan as a strategist. He used to have some talents around him, but unfortunately most of these talents were scattered due to Guo Songling's defection last year.

   Zhou Hexuan smiled, smiling happily. Being able to use Zhang Xueliang's strength to open more primary schools and cultivate more talents can be considered a contribution to the country.

   As for the hope of hell, when the day of "September 18th" comes, all hope will vanish.
