Seeing that Chen Zikun's eyes were fixed on military expenditures for a long time, Yan Su felt a chill in his heart and asked: "Chairman, don't you want to disband the troops and save money?"
Chen Zikun said: "Wars are raging everywhere, and it coincides with troubled times.
I finally have a few soldiers, so I can't bear to send them off.
However, Jiangdong is too small, with barren land and underdeveloped industry and commerce.
It really can't support so many soldiers.
Brothers are under my command."
After holding it in for so long, it’s time to go out and exercise.”
Yan Su said happily: "Chairman, you finally figured it out."
Chen Zikun said: "Xiao'an, it's not that I figured it out, it's the situation that forced me to leave.
I don't have the ability to unify the country, and competing in the world is not what I want, but it is also my long-cherished wish to let all the brothers have a good destination.
The world of the future will definitely belong to the Chiang Kai-shek and Huangpu faction.
Lao Gai and Lao Chen are both from wild backgrounds.
If they don’t move closer to the central government as soon as possible and gain a military background, they will be treated as nobodies sooner or later. " Yan Su said: "Then, where should brothers develop?"
Chen Zikun said: "There are so many famous places here.
People are eyeing the seats in each province.
The neighboring provinces are useless.
The northwest provinces are too poor and have no meaning.
Looking at the whole country, only Guangdong is a treasure.
People rely on themselves as revolutionary pioneers and do not take Chiang Kai-shek seriously.
The central government and Guangdong will fight sooner or later.
We are ready to get a few more provincial chairmen to do it. " He patted Yan Su on the shoulder and said, "Brother Xiao'an, get ready and wait to take my seat."
Yan Su said: "Kunwu, you don't want to take over the mountain so early."
Chen Zikun said: "I would like to retreat, but if I don't stand in front of them, life will not be easy for the brothers.
So I plan to accept Chairman Chiang's appointment and go to Nanjing to become a member of the National Government and deputy minister of the Ministry of Military Affairs. " Yan Su and Chen Zikun have been partners for many years, so it is natural for him to take over as provincial chairman.
However, how to fill the vacancy left after he steps down as chief of staff is a big problem.
"Xiao'an, in your opinion, who is more suitable to be in charge of the army?"
Chen Zikun wanted to hear his opinion.
Yan Su seemed to have already considered this matter, and said eloquently: "The Jiangdong Army is divided into three parts.
Gai Longquan and Chen Shou are both old brothers from Jiangbei, and there is another group of military students we trained ourselves and those who were recruited later.
Armed, in terms of qualifications, Lao Gai He is on par with Lao Chen.
It is not good for anyone to go up there.
Zeng Jiao Police Department is enough for him to take charge of, and he cannot arrange it.
In my opinion, foreign monks like to chant sutras, so it is better to find someone who can be accepted by everyone.
Jiang Someone who can be recognized by Zhongzheng can be the chief of staff.”
Chen Zikun immediately guessed the candidate: "You said Chen Qilin is too young."
Yan Su smiled and said: "If he has deep connections in the city and sophisticated methods, I would not dare to recommend him.
It is precisely because he is young and has insufficient qualifications that the army is still in your hands.
He is also a first-term student of Huangpu and Chairman Chiang Kai-shek's Student, the authentic Central Army, with him in charge of our Jiangdong Army, it will be easier to disband and organize it in the future. " Chen Zikun said: "I will do as you say, and I will go to Nanjing to take up my post next month."
Yan'er ran over, raised her little face and asked: "Dad, are you going to Nanjing?
When will you come back?"
Chen Zikun said: "Baby, let's go together and live in Nanjing from now on."
Yan'er shook her head: "I won't go, mommy said, Nanjing is hot and uncomfortable in summer."
Chen Zikun smiled and said: "We can come back during the summer vacation."
In the autumn of 1930, Chen Zikun resigned as chairman of Jiangdong Province and went to Nanjing to take up the post of deputy minister of the Military Department of the Nationalist Government.
Because the minister was concurrently held by Feng Yuxiang, and Lao Feng and the Nanjing government were incompatible, Chen Zikun was actually the head of the Military Department.

However, he did not get the seat of a member of the National Government as he wished.
In order to win this seat for Zhang Xueliang, Chiang Kai-shek had already quarreled with Hu Hanmin and even threatened to resign.
Under this situation, Chen Zikun's hopes were naturally in vain, but he failed.
He was elected as an alternate member of the Central Supervisory Committee at the Fourth National Congress of the Kuomintang, so his trip to Nanjing was not in vain.
Recommended by Chen Zikun, Yan Xiaoan took up the post of chairman of the Jiangdong Provincial Government.
Chen Qilin was promoted to Army Major General and appointed chief of staff of the Jiangdong Provincial Security Command.
The post of security commander is still held by Chen Zikun.
Although Gai Longquan, Chen Shouzengjiao and others have no change in their positions, their strength has greatly increased.
They are all generals with tens of thousands of troops.
As long as there are wars, they still worry about not being promoted and making a fortune.
The military minister of the Nanjing government was a false position, and no one's troops could be transferred.
The only advantage was that he was promoted to a higher rank.
From the local government to the central government, he became a serious member of the central government.
Chen Zikun's military rank was also officially explained.
An army general in Beiyang was converted into a first-level general in the National Revolutionary Army.
The military uniforms of the national army have also changed, from the gray large-brim Mao tunic to the German mountain hat and dark green woolen uniforms.
Military ranks adopt collar badges.
The generals have a golden light plate decorated with a triangle star emblem, equipped with an armed belt and a sword.
Of course, only Only senior military officers and the Central Military Forces are eligible to change their uniforms.
The miscellaneous troops still wear the old-fashioned dress, but they just change their cap badges and ranks.
The Ministry of Military Affairs had no specific work, and the alternate members of the Supervisory Committee were even more idle.
However, Chen Zikun was happy with this and devoted his main energy to the construction of Beitai.
Gong Zijun had a weak personality and was not qualified for the post of county magistrate, so Chen Zikun dismissed him.
He was transferred to the provincial government to be the director of the Financial Committee, and he invited a county magistrate from the north who was similar to himself in age.
The new county magistrate is called He Qigong, a native of Tongcheng, Anhui Province.
He was originally Feng Yuxiang's secretary and was later recommended as the mayor of Peiping.
During his tenure, there were no cases of corruption in the Peking City Government and its affiliated agencies, which shows his courage and methods.
He Qigong had not been the mayor of Peiping for a long time, and he claimed to be ill at home.
Chen Zikun had heard of his name for a long time, and sent someone with a personal letter to invite him to Nanjing to make his request.
He Qigong was only thirty years old, a soldier, and he spoke quickly. , and asked Chen Zikun to fully delegate power before he would be the county magistrate.
"Don't be suspicious of people, but don't be suspicious of people when you employ people.
When I ask you to be the county magistrate, I naturally rely on my husband's ability.
I definitely don't ask a clay Buddha to decorate the appearance."
Chen Zikun said.
The two had similar spirits and had a great conversation.
When He Qigong talked about his own experience, he found that he had similarities with Chen Zikun.
He was poor when he was young and received help from nobles.
At the age of eighteen, he went to Beijing to make a living and joined Feng Yuxiang's army as a soldier.
He was a famous civil servant, and later went to the Soviet Union for two inspections.
He was very knowledgeable and was the first of the top ten civil servants in the Northwest Military Department.
Chen Zikun sighed: "When brother Ke went to Beijing alone to make a living, his younger brother also went to Beijing from outside the customs.
He worked as a foreign coachman, carried dung, and later joined Wu Yushuai's army as a soldier.
Our brothers' situation was actually the same, but in Beijing it turned out that It’s a pity that we haven’t met each other.”
He Qigong said: "It's not too late to get to know each other."
The two looked up to the sky and laughed.

That night, Chen Zikun entertained He Qigong with wine.
He drank a thousand glasses of wine with his close friend, and drank heartily without feeling drunk.
He Qigong drank so much that his whole body became hot.
He asked Chen Zikun for a sword, took off his shirt, and sang in the yard.
Qi Wu actually used the excellent Taiyi Xuanmen swordsmanship.
Chen Zikun asked curiously: "Brother Ke, where did you learn your sword skills?"
He Qigong said: "When I was young, I received help from noble people, who taught me how to read and practice martial arts.
It was at that time that I learned my swordsmanship."
Chen Zikun's heart moved: "Do you remember the noble man's name?"
He Qigong said: "I feel ashamed to say that that noble man sponsored many young children.
I gave up halfway because of my poor qualifications.
However, I still bear in mind the name of my benefactor.
He is Guangfuhui Tao Chengzhang."
Chen Zikun smiled and said nothing, and took out a jade plaque from his neck with the word "Kunwu" engraved on it.
He Qigong's pupils shrank slightly, and he pulled out a jade plaque of the same style from his collar, with the word "Ke Zhi" engraved on it.
It turns out that He Qigong was also one of the seeds cultivated by the Liberation Society.
The two met again and treated each other as brothers from then on.
The New Year is approaching, but the capital of Jiangdong Province is not peaceful.
It is said that a gangster has come here and committed more than ten crimes, specifically raping innocent women in the deep house compound.
The police department tried their best, but could not solve the case.
For a while, People are panicked and rumors are spreading.
At the official residence on Fenglin Road, Yao Yilei and Jian Bing also heard the story from their servants.
It was rumored that the flower-picking thief had practiced Qing Gong, and he could climb up the two-foot-high wall with just a few steps, and he could step on the water in the pond.
The lotus leaves flew across the water, and his skill with hidden weapons was even more impressive.
No one could beat him like money darts or plum blossom needles.
Yao Yilei scoffed at these rumors: "It's just a little thief who made such a big noise.
I really don't know how Zeng Jiao became the police chief."
Jian Bing said: "I heard that this person specializes in stealing from wealthy families.
He is indeed brave.
The master is not at home.
What should he do if he steals here?"
Yao Yilei sneered: "My Tiger Head Shotgun hasn't been used for a long time.
It's okay if he doesn't come.
If he comes, there will be no return."
Having said that, Yao Yilei still called Zeng Jiao and asked him to send a team of patrolmen to strengthen the security on Fenglin Road.
He also asked the official residence guards to set up double posts at night, with bullets loaded and the power grid energized.
For several days in a row, the criminal thief did not continue to commit crimes.
The tense nerves of the people relaxed again, and the streets gradually took on the flavor of the New Year.
There were stalls buying New Year's goods everywhere, every household was busy preparing New Year's goods, and merchants were busy collecting goods.
The travelers who were out and about were also busy rushing home.
That afternoon, Yan'er wanted to go out to play.
Yao Yilei and Jian Bing were playing two games of mahjong at home, playing cards with the wives of Yan Su, Zeng Jiao, Chen Qilin, Gai Longquan, and Chen Shou.
How could they have any free time?
He took her to the street, so he asked Aunt Wang to bring a maid and a guard to play with Yan'er in her arms.
The government car took them to the main street of the provincial capital.

Aunt Wang held Yan'er and walked in front, with the maids and guards following behind.
The street was filled with a dazzling array of gadgets and snacks.
Yan'er was overwhelmed, looking at this and asking for that. , extremely happy.
As she was eating candied haws, she suddenly saw someone doing tricks.
Yan'er made a fuss to look at it.
Aunt Wang carried her over and squeezed through a gap.
She saw swords, guns, swords, halberds and meteor hammers in the circle, and a boy with a tiger-like head was doing somersaults. , that somersault is called a Beautiful, as dazzling as a hot wheel, she turned eighteen times in a row with the sound of the gong.
She was breathless and her face was not red.
She stood still and clasped her fists: "Young and old men, we are new to Guibao.
We don't understand the rules.
What's wrong with us?"
Please forgive me, gentlemen."
The voice was clear and childish, and there was cheering all around.
The person who played the gong was a tall woman, dressed up in sharp sleeves, with silver hair on her temples, looking at the boy with a smile
