Chapter 931

"Send people to kill Sima Ping's entire family!" An angry roar sounded in the military commission conference room.

"Cut this bastard into eight pieces and hack him into pieces!"

"Kill! We must kill him! Kill him! "

"How did Shanxi raise such a group of officials?! Retreat, all of you! "

The members of the military commission shouted angrily. When the news of everyone's beloved Military Governor Vaize being assassinated reached the military commission, it immediately aroused a strong hatred and murderous intent. The guards at the door only felt the hair on their backs stand up. The members of the military commission were all experienced and had killed countless people. They didn't need to do anything themselves. Just their emotions were like sharp blades, making the guards feel uneasy and even fearful.

Ruan Xihao slammed the table a few times. The members of the military commission also temporarily stopped and waited to hear what Ruan Xihao had to say. Ruan Xihao glanced at the members of the military commission. Some old faces didn't appear here. Hu Chenghe retired, Lei Hu retired, Ke Gongyu was taking the military academy research team to do a drill, so he wasn't in Nanjing at this time. Most of the members of the military commission were older than Ruan Xihao, but their status and experience were not as good as the younger Ruan Xihao. With anger, Ruan Xihao said comfortably, "I suggest that the 83rd Army immediately go north to pick up the Governor!"

The 83rd Army was a unit of the Nanjing Army. It was also one of the only three fully formed armies in the hinterland of China. The other fully formed armies were basically stationed in various war zones. With the current strength of China, there were only three armies in the vast area from the Pearl River to the Yangtze River, and from the Yangtze River to the Yellow River. The Central Guard Regiment could be called the personal guards, and the 83rd Army guarding Nanjing was the Imperial Army.

Without waiting for others to speak, Ruan Xihao said, "I also suggest that the 74th Army stationed in Beijing move to the direction of Shanxi to ensure the absolute safety of the Governor."

When the vice chairman of the military commission said this, everyone didn't immediately agree. They looked at Ruan Xihao with shock. The scale of the operation of two armies was nothing in the war era. What surprised everyone was the mobilization cost. In the past, the mobilization of the army was ordered by the Governor. It didn't refer to the operations in those battles, but any individual military operation, whether it was a regiment, a company, or even a platoon or a squad. It could even be a major battle at the level of a front army. Before the commander-in-chief passed an order from the military commission to hand over the actual command to the various commanding units, even a single soldier could not make his own decisions, let alone a squad.

There were many military operations that were not under the personal control of the commander-in-chief, such as border patrols, bandit suppression in Central Asia, North America's preparations for war, and Madagascar's southern Africa, which the British refused to let go of. If there was a military conflict in these areas, the frontline personnel did not need to report to Commander-in-Chief Wei Ze for instructions, and they could take corresponding action according to the authorization of the Military Commission. Of this news had to be reported to the Military Commission as soon as possible. Of course, this news had to be reported to the Military Commission as soon as possible. But there was one thing that was exactly the same. All troops had to exercise their authority according to the authorization of the Military Commission, or rather, the authorization of the Military Commission personally commanded by Wei Ze.

But one thing was the same. All troops must exercise their authority according to the authorization of the Military Commission, or the authorization of the Military Commission personally commanded by the Military Governor Vaize. Now, there was nothing incomprehensible about Ruan Xihao's suggestion. The most important thing was to protect the safety of the Governor immediately. Even when the Commander-in-Chief left Nanjing, the Military Commission could make some decisive decisions based on the situation they agreed with. However, if this group of old brothers were to abandon the idea of being the commander-in-chief and act on their own, their decades of experience made them not dare to act rashly.

But if this group of old brothers were to put aside the idea of the Governor and act alone, their decades of experience made them not dare to act rashly. However, Ruan Xihao was not the kind of person who would force himself to his death. He continued to say, "If no one objects to these two suggestions, we will send a telegram to the Commander in Chief and see if he agrees."

The comrades of the Central Military Commission looked at each other, but still said nothing. If Si Maping appeared in front of them now, even if they didn't kill Si Maping with their own hands, they would at least beat him up and scold him. A life for a life. Many comrades with violent personalities and weak legal awareness had already used their own lives or futures to prove the existence of this uncrossable law. Although they were angry, this group of old brothers were all experienced on the battlefield. This was just an assassination, not a rebellion in Shanxi. It would be meaningless to mobilize the Imperial Guards and the 74th Division in Beijing.

So the first thought that came to these people's minds was what Ruan Xihao wanted to do. Some of the old brothers understood earlier. Ruan Xihao suggested sending this operation to the Military Governor Vaize and letting the Military Governor Vaize make the decision. In everyone's mind, the Military Governor Vaize was not only a wise general who was better than Zhuge Liang, but also a fierce general who could take the head of a general in a crowd of thousands.

Thinking of this, Zhou Xinhua, the Political Commissar of the Combat Training Department, said, "Let's send a telegram to the Governor and see if he needs it."

Some people agreed, and the others also understood. Although everyone felt that hundreds of ordinary people wouldn't be able to do anything to the brave Governor Vaize, this was not a reason for the old brothers. The first thing the old brothers had to ensure was the safety of the Military Governor Vaize. If someone tried to assassinate the Governor Vaize, it would be very inappropriate for the old brothers to say, "Governor Vaize, we trust you."

After understanding this point, most of the officers of the Military Commission expressed their agreement. Even if they didn't agree, they didn't dare to openly oppose it. So after the telegram was drafted, it was sent to the Military Governor Vaize.

Seeing that he could finally have some leadership in the Military Commission, Ruan Xihao was relieved. When he joined the Military Governor Vaize's team in Wuzhou, he was only 15 or 16 years old. The old brothers in their twenties were always above him. Ruan Xihao was entrusted with heavy responsibilities and became a capable general who could take charge of an area. Capture Beijing, sweep the northeast, and put an end to the Manchu Qing. But even so, he was just a little brother among the old brothers. Even Shen Xin, who was a few years younger than Ruan Xihao, as the Director of the Political Department, had a higher status than Ruan Xihao. It wasn't until now that Ruan Xihao was sure that he really had a status second only to the Governor in the Military Commission.

Of course, the members of the Military Commission could imagine the result of this telegram. The Governor Vaize refused without hesitation. Somewhat unexpectedly, the Military Governor Vaize also issued a "silence order." No one was allowed to leak this matter for any reason. Moreover, the Governor Vaize also told the members of the Military Commission that he had begun to return to Nanjing. Before he returned to Nanjing, if this news leaked and caused political turmoil. Whoever leaked it would be responsible.

The tone of the telegram was strict and clear about the content. Everyone in the Military Commission knew that the Governor Vaize was not joking. Fortunately, when this matter reached Nanjing, it was classified as highly confidential. The members of the Military Commission knew that they couldn't talk about it, and no one dared to. Other than waiting for the Governor Vaize to return, everyone had no other thoughts at this time. No one really doubted that the Governor Vaize could return to Nanjing unscathed.

At this time, Vézé had already boarded the train heading south. He regretted that whenever he came to the north for an inspection, something would happen that would make him have to return to Nanjing. Last time, there were two consecutive attacks by the Americans on China's diplomats. This kind of problem, which was enough to trigger a war, could only be decided by Vézé himself. This time, it wasn't that Sima Ji, the idiot, could really do anything, but in addition to making the entire Shanxi officialdom unlucky, Sima Ji also caused the internal contradictions that had long existed in the upper echelons of the Min dynasty to have the possibility of another conflict.

As for the Americans, Vézé had to return to Nanjing to unify the internal thinking, so that the belligerent faction would not have a chance to make things ferment. Now Vézé still had to return to Nanjing to stabilize the situation. He couldn't let these guys who didn't like each other have another big fight.

The railway system of the Min dynasty was now more and more perfect, and it was easy to join a special train. Therefore, the train only paused slightly when changing trains, and the rest of the time, it ran on the track. It only took three days for Vézé to rush back to Nanjing from Taiyuan.

The level of the personnel who greeted him was so high that there was a sentry every few steps on the special platform. Wei Changrong, Ruan Xihao, Wang Haiyang, and other leaders personally came to greet the train. Everyone heaved a sigh of relief when they saw Wei Ze calmly getting off the train.

Wei Changrong strode first, holding Vézé's hand. Wei Changrong wanted to say something, but he could only sigh. Patting Wei Changrong on the shoulder, Vézé smiled and said, "You look good."

Hearing Vézé's joke, Wang Haiyang was really relieved. It was good that the Commander-in-Chief was fine. Wang Haiyang never expected that Wei Changrong, who was always calm and courageous in his impression, would actually tear up at this moment. This completely contradicted the image of Wei Changrong in Wang Haiyang's mind. During the few days of waiting for the Commander-in-Chief to return to Nanjing, Wang Haiyang was like an ant on a hot pan, restless. Every time he saw Wei Changrong, Wang Haiyang felt a lot more at ease. The Min dynasty organization minister was always calm, and he could even occasionally tell a joke to everyone. After seeing Vézé, everyone was relieved. But it was Wei Changrong who found it the most difficult to control his emotions.

Blood relatives were blood relatives, Wang Haiyang sighed in his heart.

Seeing Wei Changrong cry, Vézé stepped forward and hugged Wei Changrong. He patted Wei Changrong's back and comforted Wei Changrong's emotions. The platform was not a place to talk. The group of leaders got on the bus and went straight to the central office building.

As soon as they sat down, Vézé said, "This matter was done by a stupid bastard. Now that this matter has entered the judicial process, I think it's over. "

Such a conciliatory attitude surprised all the Central Committee members. The relevant departments had prepared all kinds of materials and were waiting for the Commander-in-Chief to return to kill Sima Ping and the other cadres in charge of Shanxi. Now Vézé said it lightly, as if he didn't care about this matter at all. Apart from feeling surprised, many committee members also felt deeply dissatisfied.

Looking at the various expressions of the Central Committee members, Vézé waved his hand. "I know what you mean. The handling of Shanxi is another matter. I now ask everyone to be calm. It wasn't Sima Ping who started this matter. Many comrades know Sima Ping. With his ability, if he wanted to do this kind of thing, it wouldn't have become a farce. The one who did this was Sima Ji, a bastard. A bastard can make so many Central Committee members lose their usual standards. Don't you think this is an insult to the Central Committee? "

This speech was confident and even a little arrogant, but it was effective. Many Central Committee members nodded slightly. It was indeed as Vézé said. Given the current status of these Central Committee members, it was a great insult to them to equate themselves with a nobody like Sima Ji. There were also some members of the Central Committee who looked more relaxed, especially those who had a good relationship with Si Maping. An assassination of the Emperor would always cause a violent political upheaval, and conflicts that had been accumulated for too long could easily erupt. The Commander-in-Chief's action was obviously to prevent conflicts from intensifying. Those who had a good relationship with Sima Ping were naturally very welcome.
