The moment the plane took off, Chen Zikun truly breathed a sigh of relief.
He stepped on the rudder and circled over the airport.
Soldiers scattered on the runway were still shooting into the sky, but at this height they could not hurt the plane at all.
Chen Zikun flew towards Lintong.
The Huaqing Pool is thirty kilometers away from Xi'an city.
It takes twenty minutes to drive.
The plane arrived in a blink of an eye.
He lowered the joystick and swooped down at a very low altitude.
He could see that the gate of the gate was broken, the roadblocks were swaying, and the ground There were vague corpses lying there, and smoke and dust billowed on the roof, showing signs of a battle.
"Chiang Kai-shek is finished."
Chen Zikun sighed, turned the plane and headed east.
At the same time, in Xi'an City, in the office of the Northwest Pacification Office, a group of uniformed soldiers were waiting anxiously.
Yang Hucheng was walking around with all his clothes on, but Zhang Xueliang was not wearing an armed belt, with his collar open, sitting on the sofa smoking a pipe.
Suddenly the phone rang, Yang Hucheng almost jumped over and grabbed the phone: "Did you catch it?"
his tone was anxious and full of expectation.
After saying a few words on the phone, Yang Hucheng looked extremely ugly.
He covered the phone and said, "This is a call from the airport.
There is a plane taking off privately.
It is Chiang Kai-shek's special plane."
A general of the Northwest Army said: "Isn't the pilot detained?
How can he still take off?
Chiang Kai-shek can't run away."
A general of the Northeast Army said: "It's impossible.
Lintong is blocked on three levels inside and three outside.
It's absolutely impossible to escape."
"Then why haven't you been caught yet?
Could it be that he committed suicide by throwing himself into Huaqing Pool?"
Someone else raised this possibility.
Zhang Xueliang took two puffs of cigarette, stood up and said: "I know Jiang's personality very well.
He will never commit suicide.
Search again, search carefully, and don't miss any corner."
The phone rang again, and this time Zhang Xueliang answered: "Hello, I'm Zhang Xueliang, oh, I got it."
He put down the phone and said: "All the central officials in the Xijing guest house were captured.
Only one escaped.
Chen Zikun from the Aviation Committee.
When the soldiers rushed in, his bed was still hot.
This Chen Zikun really has a way.
Then The plane must have been driven away by him."
Yang Hucheng said: "Should we send a destroyer to chase?"
Zhang Xueliang smiled and said: "Forget it, I can't catch him if I chase him.
Kunwu is my best friend, so just let him go.
Maybe he can be of help in Nanjing."
It was not until daylight that exciting news came from Lintong.
Chiang Kai-shek had caught him.
He was hiding in the mountains wearing only pajamas.

He was discovered by the mountain-searching troops and is now under house arrest.
The headquarters was filled with joy, and Zhang Xueliang shouted loudly: "Bring me some wine."
The orderly went to bring the wine, and Yang Hucheng wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "Qing Han, it's nonsense to say you're not nervous.
I'm sweating so much.
If Chiang Kai-shek dies, we will be eternal sinners."
Zhang Xueliang glanced at the cheerful officers and said: "Yes, the military remonstrance turned into a mutiny, and it is hard to explain why.
I will go to Lintong to meet with the commissioner and persuade him to stop the civil war and unite with the outside world and contact the Communist Party.
Leave it to Brother Hucheng."
Yang Hucheng said: "Don't worry, I will definitely invite the CCP to deal with the Kuomintang.
No one can do it, but they are the best."
The red wine arrived, and everyone drank and celebrated the victory.
A red sun hung high outside, and the ancient city of Xi'an, which had been gloomy for many days, finally ushered in a sunny day.
Henan, Luoyang Military Airport, the control tower noticed that Chairman Chiang Kai-shek's special plane was coming and hurriedly greeted him.
However, what got off the plane was Chen Zikun, Chairman of the Aviation Committee of the Central Military Commission who looked tired.
He did not stay in Luoyang for a long time, but asked the ground staff to The personnel filled up the plane with fuel and prepared two breakfasts for themselves.
Luoyang is the base for the Central Army's westward advance.
There are dozens of fighter jets parked at the airport and dozens of pilots stationed here.
There are tens of thousands of troops stationed outside the city.
However, Chen Zikun cannot mobilize these troops, but the pilots are all Follow his orders.
In fact, Chen Zikun purchased the fighter jets and bombers used by the Central Army from the United States.
He could name every pilot.
Even if he did not hold the title of Chairman of the Aviation Committee, the pilots would help.
The plane checked and refueled before continuing to take off.
Two borrowed transport plane pilots helped fly the plane.
Chen Zikun went to the back cabin to rest.
It was very cold flying in the air.
He covered himself with a blanket and stared at the clouds outside the window in a daze.
Suddenly Shuangxi asked: "General, what do you think Zhang Xueliang wants to do?
He won't shoot all the committee members and those high officials, right?"
Chen Zikun shook his head: "Zhang Xueliang has a bad temper and refuses to recognize his relatives.
Chiang Kai-shek shouldn't push him too hard, but he won't do anything too outrageous, and the senior officials who stay in Xi'an will be fine."
Shuangxi said: "Since nothing will happen, why should we take the risk and run away?
If something goes wrong along the way, it will be the end."
Chen Zikun said: "Although Han Qing and I have a good relationship, it is a personal relationship.
He will not be soft when it comes to such a big thing.
I am not afraid that he will kill me.
What I am afraid of is that he has no self-awareness like Chen Mingshu did in the past.
If an independent country lists me as a member of the Central Committee, then I can’t explain it.”
The 19th Route Army that fought bravely against Japan in Shanghai was later transferred to Fujian.
Chen Mingshu was unwilling to withdraw from politics.
He took advantage of Feng Yuxiang's revolt in Zhangjiakou to set up his own government in Fujian and established the "Republic of China".
As a result, he was spurned by all parties, and even the Communist Party of China consistently opposed Chiang Kai-shek.
The Guangdong side refused to cooperate, and the Fujian regime only lasted for fifty-three months before ending hastily.
If Zhang Xueliang now follows Chen Mingshu's example, he will definitely end up with the same fate.
Amid the monotonous roar of the engine, Chen Zikun fell into a deep sleep.

After an unknown amount of time, the pilot came to report: "We are at Nanjing University Airport ahead, do you want to land?"
Just when Chen Zikun was about to say that he could land, he suddenly remembered that today is the anniversary of the Aviation Association.
Soong Meiling should be in Shanghai instead of Nanjing.
Chiang Kai-shek is not here.
The central government is leaderless.
Only the Minister of Military and Political Affairs, He Yingqin, is in charge.
Looking for him will not help, so he said: "Don't stop.
Direct flight to Shanghai Hongqiao.”
It was already dark when we arrived at Hongqiao Airport.
The airport tower approved the landing.
After the plane stopped, Chen Zikun got off the plane with Double Happiness.
The pilot stayed at the airport on standby.
He borrowed a car from the person in charge of the airport whom he knew well.
A coat and rushed to the city without stopping.
In the French Concession, Song Mansion, Song Ziwen had already gone to bed and was lying on the bed reading an English book.
The servant came to report, and Chen Zikun was waiting in the living room with urgent matters.
Song Ziwen hurriedly put on his pajamas and went downstairs.
Chen Zikun was walking around the living room.
When he saw Song Ziwen coming downstairs, he stepped forward and whispered: "Xi'an Incident, the life and death of the commission were uncertain.
I was the only one who risked my life to escape.
Where is my wife, hurry up."
Let’s discuss a countermeasure.”
Song Ziwen was stunned and stammered: "Han Qing."
He sat in front of the sofa and picked up the phone.
Then he realized that the long-distance call could not reach Xi'an.
He hurriedly went upstairs, picked up some clothes and came down: "Let's go find Madam. ” Today is the anniversary of the founding of the China Aviation Association.
Song Meiling has become very interested in aviation since she took Chen Zikun's plane for a spin in the sky many years ago.
Chen Zikun is in charge of military aviation, while civilian aviation is in charge.
Mrs.
Chiang works part-time.
The Aviation Association held a celebration event in the public concession.
Song Ziwen knew the location and drove to the club.
He got out of the car and invited Song Meiling out who was dancing.
When Mrs.
Jiang saw Chen Zikun in the car, she couldn't help being shocked: "You are not Are you in Xi’an?”
Chen Zikun briefly told the story, and Song Meiling immediately changed her expression: "Let's go to eldest sister's house."
The marriage between Chiang Kai-shek and Song Dynasty was purely a political marriage.
If Chiang Kai-shek's banner fell, the Song family would inevitably be affected.
The eldest sister Song Ailing and the eldest brother-in-law Kong Xiangxi were also influential figures in the political arena.
The family stayed up all night, sitting together to discuss.
"The little guy won't be so heartless."
Song Meiling shook her head, not believing that Zhang Xueliang would kill Chiang Kai-shek.
Kong Xiangxi is the vice president of the Executive Yuan of the National Government and is well aware of the cruelty of politics.
He sneered: "Han Qing is simple-minded and puts his righteousness first.
He is afraid that there will be someone behind the scenes."

"You mean, the Communist Party in northern Shaanxi?"
Song Ziwen adjusted his glasses and his face became serious.
Kong Xiangxi said: "It is very possible that Zhang Xueliang sympathizes with the Communist Party.
Everyone knows it privately.
According to what Xiao Chen said, forcing him to go too far will inevitably force him to side with the Communist Party.
To fall to the Communist Party is to fall to Soviet Russia. , Shaanxi-Gansu and Xinjiang are close to each other, and the Soviet power has reached Hami.
If they unite, there is nothing the central government can do. " Just as he was talking, the attendant called: "Dean, long distance call from Nanjing."
Kong Xiangxi picked up the phone: "Hello, I'm Kong Xiangxi, oh, this is Minister He."
After the conversation, he put down the phone and said: "The call was from He Yingqin.
Xi'an called and said that we asked the chairman to stay in Xi'an to encourage him to reflect and never do harm."
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and Song Meiling said: "Without further delay, we will return to Nanjing immediately."
Chen Zikun said: "There is a special plane in Hongqiao that can see you off."
Song Ziwen said: "At this critical moment, we cannot fly.
Our Song family cannot afford the risk.
We should let the Railway Bureau arrange a special train."
Song Meiling said: "Negotiations with the government are simple, but you have to leave more paths for everything, and private negotiations with the Communist Party cannot be ignored.
Zikun, I am too busy, so you can go ahead and do it."
Chen Zikun said hurriedly: "I don't know the Communists, so I can't get through this line."
Song Meiling said: "Of course you have nothing to do with the Communist Party.
I just asked you to come forward.
You go to my second sister.
She has close contacts with left-wing people and can talk to the Communist Party."
Chen Zikun nodded in agreement.
Without further ado, the Song family immediately set off back to Nanjing.
Before leaving, Song Meiling called her second sister's house and asked Chen Zikun to come over.
When we arrived at Soong Ching Ling's villa at No. 29 Molière Road, it was already late at night.
Madam was waiting in the living room with a solemn look on her face.
Even though many years had passed, she still had not aged, her skin was like cream, her temperament was noble, and she was like a sculpture.
"Xiao Chen, you are here, tell me what happened."
Song Qingling asked Chen Zikun to take a seat and asked his secretary to serve him coffee.
After a preliminary understanding of the situation, Soong Ching Ling said: "I don't have much contact with the Communists, but I know someone who may be able to help.
Secretary, please call me and ask Xiao Tang to come to my place."
Half an hour later, Tang Yan hurried over and saw Chen Zikun sitting at Soong Ching Ling's house.
She couldn't help but wonder: "It's you":
