Rebirth of the National Marshal

Chapter 153 Invitation

It can be said that Mr. Jiang Baili did a really good job in dealing with the overall national strategy. Some books in Mao Yuanshan's era also said that Mr. Jiang Baili was the number one strategist of that era. He had foreseen the outcome of the war when it just began.

In fact, Mr. Jiang Baili had said these words to the principal a long time ago. Although the two of them disagreed, they still loved the entire country very much. To them, personal grudges were nothing compared to the entire country.

Even if Mr. Jiang Baili is unwilling to work with the principal, he still has to say what he should say. He can delay a few people, but he cannot delay the country. This is Mr. Jiang Baili's idea. Others don't understand this, so they always think that Mr. Jiang Baili is resting at home now and not going out to help the principal manage the entire army. It is wrong for Mr. Jiang Baili. In fact, if he really goes out, it will affect the principal's energy greatly and he will not be able to focus all his energy on the war against Japan.

If, as they said, Mr. Jiang Baili becomes the commander-in-chief of the army, then the principal will really have trouble sleeping every night. Now the entire military structure of the Republic of China is basically composed of two aspects. One is the central army led by the principal, which is the so-called Whampoa clique, and the other is the miscellaneous troops from various places. Most of the officers of these miscellaneous troops came from the Baoding Military Academy.

Therefore, if Mr. Jiang Baili raised his arms and called for action, there would definitely be many people who would follow him to rise up in rebellion. At that time, not to mention resisting the Japanese devils, there would most likely be a civil war first, which would give the Japanese devils more opportunities.

Until now, many people say that the Japanese devils were present in a series of civil wars such as the Central Plains War. They wanted to use this kind of civil war to weaken China. If they could let the Chinese kill each other, they could even achieve the goal of occupying China without sending troops.

Just like now, they are fighting and winning over people at the same time, hoping to find one or two people within the Chinese government to replace Principal Jiang. This way they can do a better job and save a lot of effort.

"The Japanese have made a very accurate analysis of China. Although they are strong now, they will be relatively weak in the long run. Although China is weak, a lean camel is bigger than a horse. It is impossible for them to swallow us up in one bite, so instigating internal strife among us is the method the Japanese have always used." Originally, Mao Yuanshan had no chance to speak here, because there were only seniors here, but after a few people chatted, they actually asked him to express his views on Japan.

"The fact that you can see this point is much better than many people within our party and country. In the past, the Japanese would give us some support, and some local warlords believed that the Japanese were really helping us and helping them rule their own regions. But they never thought that these bullets and shells would eventually be thrown at us Chinese. No matter what victory these things have won for you, when the two countries really go to war, it is our Chinese national strength that will be lost." Several people present still admired Mao Yuanshan's insight, because at his age, even if Mao Yuanshan was an outstanding officer in the Whampoa Military Academy, he could not see the situation of the entire country. It would not be surprising if they understood that Mao Yuanshan was a time traveler.

As there were many things to do within the government, Li Zongren and Bai Chongxi sat for a while and then went back. Mao Yuanshan stayed, but Jiang Baili felt that Mao Yuanshan was an interesting guy, so he arranged a simple meal at his home and chatted while eating.

"Governor Mao stayed at my place for lunch. I'm afraid he has other things to do." After three rounds of wine and five dishes, Mr. Jiang Baili felt that this guy should speak, but he was still eating. He didn't think the food at home was that delicious.

"To be honest, sir, I really don't know how to start. In the past, everyone has been talking about your talent. Today I see that it is indeed well-deserved. Moreover, I think the request I am going to make next may make you feel embarrassed." Before meeting the real person, I still felt a little different in my heart. When I met Mr. Jiang Baili this time, I really admired him in my heart. I thought, would he be willing to go to my cold place to be the chief of staff?

"Just tell me what's going on. As long as it's good for the country and the nation, I can still help." No matter how smart Mr. Jiang Baili was, he didn't expect that Mao Yuanshan's idea was actually his own. At this time, he more or less guessed that Mao Yuanshan must be thinking of finding some good military officers from him to go over. Although Mr. Jiang Baili was no longer the principal of the Baoding Military Academy, he had students and old friends all over the world, so it was still possible to find some officers to go over.

"I know my request is a bit abrupt, but I think you should contribute your strength to the entire country. You should not rest at home. There is definitely no position for you in Nanjing, so I implore you to help me and serve as the chief of staff of the Chahar local army." In any case, these words have to be said. If people are willing to go, they can go. If they don't want to go, then forget it. You can't hide it.

To be honest, Mr. Jiang Baili was really scared at this time. Since he retired and returned home, he had never held any position except that of a senior staff officer. Of course, no one came to invite him, just like Li Zongren, who was already a big shot in the military, and no one dared to invite him.

The most important thing is that you are afraid of causing resentment from President Jiang. Everyone knows that Mr. Jiang Baili is very powerful. If you can invite him to be the chief of staff, what will you think? Will you live a good life as a local warlord? Of course not. You will definitely compete with President Jiang, and your ambition will be exposed.

Don't say that you don't have that power yet. Even if you have that power, the principal will definitely take action against you. It is for this reason that no one dares to ask Mr. Jiang Baili to come out of retirement. That would be purely messing around with one's own future and would cause a backlash from Principal Jiang. The final result would be disproportionate to the price paid.

"You are really brave, no one in the whole country dares to say this to me." Mr. Jiang Baili said with a smile.
