Rebirth of the National Marshal

The government is different from the ordinary people. Although you repelled the Japanese attack, you caused disputes between the two countries, so someone will cause trouble for you.

The first person to come was naturally Mao Yuanshan's superior, Director Ma. However, Director Ma also knew that Mao Yuanshan did not think much of him. If he came alone, he might be kicked out by this guy, so he brought Jingcheng Deputy Mayor Zhuang Yun with him.

Zhuang Yun didn't want to come at first, but he was shocked by the battle yesterday. A mere security team actually wiped out an entire Japanese squadron. Such a record was simply unthinkable before, but now it has been achieved. It is hard to believe.

"Captain Mao, this is the deputy mayor of our capital. He is here to interrogate you on behalf of the National Government. I hope you can answer the questions honestly." Mao Yuanshan was thinking about his development plan. He didn't expect this guy to come in, ready to show him a warning as soon as he entered the door.

Interrogation? What the hell? I am now a meritorious official of the Party and the country. It is not good for you to do this to me casually? Besides, aren’t interrogations only for those who have made mistakes? They also sent a deputy mayor. This level seems a bit high. You know, I am just a security captain. Only when I reach the level of police chief can I contact the deputy mayor, right?

You have to know that the deputy mayor of this era is different from that of later generations. In the later era, there was a secretary above the mayor, but in this era, the mayor is the biggest person. As for the parliament, they are not of much use. This is China, not a foreign country. Especially at this time, democracy is basically impossible.

"Director Ma, what you said is wrong. I am not here to interrogate Captain Mao. I am just sent by the Nationalist government to understand some of the circumstances. I think no one knows more about this conflict than Captain Mao. Please be careful with your wording." Zhuang Yun frowned after hearing what Director Ma said. It seems that Director Ma is really pro-Japanese.

Hmm? Director Ma suddenly seemed to understand something. This deputy mayor was not originally from Beiping, but came from the Jiankang government. Captain Mao was also from the Jiankang government. Why didn't he think of this?

It turned out that the German officials in Peiping were basically divided into two factions. One faction was the native northern faction. Most of these people were former Beiyang warlords, from Duan Qirui to Zhang Zuolin, and later to Feng Yuxiang, and finally to Zhang Xueliang. It can be said that these people were all miscellaneous brands. But Zhuang Yun was different. He was a genuine American student who returned and had his own roots in the National Government. Now he came to Peiping to represent the National Government's power in Peiping. Although he was only a deputy mayor, he was in charge of very important areas.

Although Zhuang Yun was not a disciple of the emperor from the Whampoa Military Academy, he was also a person favored by President Chiang. It can be said that this guy was Kong Xiangxi's man, and it took a lot of effort to place him in Peiping.

Mao Yun couldn't figure out so many things at once, but since the deputy mayor was speaking on his side, he couldn't miss this opportunity.

"Mayor, this is what happened. These Japanese devils are causing trouble in my jurisdiction. As a member of the security team, what our security team does is to protect the lives and property of the people from being violated..." Why didn't Director Ma know that Mao Yun had such eloquence before? My goodness, this guy didn't stop for half an hour and didn't even drink a sip of water.

What national justice, what gentlemanly courage, these are all compliments to oneself, this is absolutely shameless in the city of Peking, the deputy mayor wanted to interrupt him several times after hearing this.

"Okay, stop talking about those useless things. The Japanese consulate has already protested to the Jiankang government. Don't make trouble. The Jiankang government will send people soon. You'd better take care of yourself." This turned out to be the main point that the two people came to say today. The deputy mayor also nodded. The matter was no longer something that the Beiping Municipal Government could handle.

It makes sense. More than a hundred devils, this is not a small number. If it was outside the Great Wall, no one would care about this matter. But this is Beiping City, where the agreement has just been signed. In fact, Principal Jiang also knows the ambitions of the Japanese, but what can he do? Now the internal situation is unstable. Even if he wants to fight the Japanese, he must have the capital, right? Otherwise, it would really be a death wish. All he needs is time.

"Things are not so absolute. Our relationship with the Japanese is a little delicate right now. If something like this happens at this time, it will bring some fluctuations to our government, but it will also bring considerable confidence to the people. There are still different voices within the party and the country." The current environment is still not to conflict with the Japanese, so even if there is any support, the deputy mayor cannot say it so directly, and can only raise it in such an obscure way.

Director Ma looked at the deputy mayor helplessly. Why the hell did they call you here? Why are you saying this now? The guy in front of him is absolutely daring. Your words are simply encouraging him to make mistakes. Apart from young people like you, no one in the party and the country will support going to war with the Japanese. You are really talking nonsense.

"Mayor, you are right. I will cooperate with the investigation when the Jiankang government comes. As for the Japanese, I don't think we need to take them too seriously. After all, they fired the first shot, and it was outside the concession. This is their problem anyway. I think if I were in charge of the public security in Peiping, there shouldn't be any big problems." Mao Yun was already starting to demand power at this time. He also understood that this was an opportunity. The government didn't dare to do anything to him now. All major newspapers had already reported what was happening here. He was now a national hero. He had just finished fighting the Japanese devils, but instead of dying, he was killed by the Party-State. If such a thing really happened, the National Government would really not be able to face the people of the world.
