【新唐人2015年01月06日讯】自从中共前军委副主席徐才厚因涉贪被查后,中共军队中的将领清洗和调整一波紧过一波。在这次前所未有的军队大洗牌中,外界发现,原江系军中爱将徐才厚、郭伯雄的人马,成了被清洗的一方,南京军区的军官则受到提拔重用。请看报导。
最近,中共对第二炮兵总部进行了罕见的人事调整,除司令员魏凤和以及副司令员吴国华之外,其余大军区级岗位全部调整:总装备部副政委王家胜调任二炮政委,二炮政治部主任唐国庆、第55基地政委张东水调任副政委,二炮装备部部长张军祥晋升参谋长,二炮第54基地政委张升民继任政治部主任。
原二炮政委、前军委副主席张震之子张海阳上将年满65岁退休。不过,自2012年开始,海外就有消息流传,与前重庆市委书记薄熙来是“发小”关系的张海阳卷入了薄案,后来他与薄熙来切割、表忠后过关。被视为前中央军委副主席徐才厚亲信的副政委于大清则被免职。于大清是18大后才调任二炮政治部主任,去年1月转任副政委。上月已有传言说他被捕受查。
海军总部的调整与二炮如出一辙,除了司令和副司令外,更换大军区级6将领,政委也是从陆军调任。
处于重要战略地位的北京军区变动也很大:出身南京军区的原国防大学校长宋普选担任司令,曾在徐才厚老巢济南军区任职、并屡屡获得超常规提拔的原司令张仕波,被贬到国防大学。
曾任前中共军委副主席郭伯雄办公室秘书、北京军区副司令刘志刚被免职﹔出身郭伯雄所属“西北军”北京军区的副政委黄建国也被免职。
《中国事务》杂志总编辑伍凡表示,中共总书记习近平上台后通过两年反腐,虽然打掉了党内对手的一些人,但他要稳固地位,必须掌控军队。所以在新古田会议后,习近平开始了对部队的大调整。
《中国事务》杂志总编辑伍凡:“这军队是他的命根子。如果军队不能真正掌握在他手上,那他这个权是虚的,是空的。他非常担心军队随时随地把他反掉,发动军事政变就把他反掉了。”
武警部队这次也是司令和政委双双换人,接任武警司令的是与习近平当年主政福建有较深渊源的王宁。
此前外界纷传,当初周永康策划政变,就是想借用武警部队的力量。不少海外媒体把薄熙来、周永康、徐才厚、令计划说成是想在18届四中全会上,打倒习近平政权的“新四人帮”。
值得注意的是,新任武警司令员王宁、海军政委苗华、新任北京军区司令员宋普选、副总参谋长秦卫江、沈阳军区司令员王教成,都出身南京军区,在军界“南京系”大热。
对此,《法国国家广播电台》指出,习近平上台后,打击徐才厚为首的“东北虎”以及郭伯雄领衔的“西北狼”这两大军中山头,大力扶植南京军区的军官。王宁、宋普选等人便成为重点培植对像。
北京时政观察人士华颇认为,习近平为了自己掌握军队,他采用的方法就是对军队将领一边清洗,一边对调。
北京时政观察人士华颇:“军队将领离开他耕耘多年的老部队,即使有什么异心,想搞什么事也搞不出来,因为那时候将不知兵,兵不知将。这个是控制军队的一个办法。”
不过,习近平这次军队高层调整,引人侧目的另一点是,海军、空军、二炮、武警四大军兵种部队政委,全部由陆军将领调任,这在中共历史上是第一次。
伍凡认为,用思想顽固落后的陆军,来管理有专业知识、吸收了西方军事思想的海军、空军、二炮军兵,这对中共的军队建设未必是好事。

Post-Effects of Coup: Reshuffle to CCP Army.
Nanjing Military Officials get Promoted.
Since former Vice Chairman of Central Military Commission
of Chinese Communist Party (CCP) Xu Caihou,
found himself investigated for his involvement in corruption,
the cleaning up and adjusting process of CCP army generals,
has been increasingly tightened.
During the unprecedented major reshuffle in the army,
it was found that the original henchmen of Jiang Zemin,
elite figures within the army,
the likes of Xu Caihou, Guo Boxiong and their followers,
have been cleaned up too.
Whereas the officials from Nanjing Military Region
are being promoted. Let’s see the story.
Recently, the Second Artillery Corp headquarters
experienced rare personnel changes.
With the exclution of Commander Wei Fenghe
and Deputy Commander Wu Guohua,
all remaining military region officials have been replaced.
Deputy Political Commissar of the General Armament
Department Wang Jiasheng, was appointed as
Political Commissar of the Second Artillery.
Political Director of Second Artillery Corps Tang Guoqing,
and Political Commissar Zhang Dongshui of 55th Base
of the Second Artillery Corps,
were all appointed as Deputy Political Commissar
to the Second Artillery Corps.
Armament Department Director Zhang Junxiang
was promoted to Chief of Staff of Second Artillery Corps.
The Political Commissar to the 54th Base of Second Artillery
Corps base Zhang Shengmin,
became successor of the Director of Political Department
of the Second Artillery Corps.
Former Political Commissar of the Second Artillery Corps
Admiral Zhang Haiyang,
who is the son of Zhang Zhen, former Vice Chairman of the
Central Military Commission of the CCP.
is now 65 years of age and retired.
However, since 2012, news spread overseas that he was
involved in the case of Bo Xilai, former Chongqing
CCP Head, due to their close relationship since childhood.
Afterwards, he severed his relationship with Bo Xilai,
expressed his loyalty and then received leniency.
Being considered as the henchman of Vice Chairman
Xu Caihou of the Central Military Commission,
Deputy Political Commissar of the Second Artillery Corps
Yu Daqing was dismissed.
Yu Qing was appointed as the Political Director
of the Second Artillery Corps after the 18th Plenary Session
of the CCP, was later promoted to Deputy Political Commissar
in January 2014.
Last month it was said he was arrested and being investigated.
The reshuffle to the Navy Headquarters is exactly the same
as the Second Artillery Corps.
Except for the Commander and Deputy Commander,
six Generals of all major military regions were replaced
and Political Commissars were all transferred from the Army.
The reshuffle is also significant in the Beijing Military Region,
which has a great strategic importance.
Former President Song Puxuan of the National Defence University,
who previously took a high-ranking position in Nanjin Military Region,
is appointed as Commander of the Beijing Military Region.
The former Commander Zhang Shibo of Beijing Military
Region was demoted to the National Defence University,
who had worked in the Jinan Military Region as lair
to Xu Caihou, and was often promoted unconventionally.
Deputy Commander of the Beijing Military Region
Liu Zhigang was dismissed,
who was previously Office Secretary of former Vice Chairman
Guo Boxiong of the CCP Central Military Commission.
The Deputy Political Commissar Huang Jianguo
of Lanzhou Military Region was also dismissed,
which is the origin military region former Vice
Chairman Guo Boxiong came from.
“China Affairs" magazine Chief Editor Wu Fan said that
during the two years’ of the anti-corruption drive, in the wake
of CCP Head Xi Jinping taking his position,
although he knocked down some of his opponents
within the CCP, in order to consolidate his position,
he had to control the army.
So after the new Gutian Meeting, Xi began
to make major adjustments to the army.
“China Affairs" magazine Chief Editor Wu Fan:
“Army is his lifeline. If the army cannot fully be grasped,
then his power is actually virtual and empty.
He is very concerned that he could be overturned
by the army. If there is a military coup,
then he will be overthrown.
The Armed Police Forces were also replaced with the
Commanders and Political Commissars.
The new Commander is Wang Ning, who has a deep relationship
with Xi Jinping when Xi worked in the Fujian Province.
Prior to this reshuffle, it is said that when Zhou Yongkang
had planned a coup, he was going to rely on the power
of the armed forces.
Many overseas media named Bo Xilai, Zhou Yongkang,
Xu Caihou and Ling Jihua, as a “New Gang of Four",
who tried to overturn Xi Jinping’s administration
of the 18th CCP Fourth Plenary Session.
It is worth noting that the new Commander of the Armed
Police Forces Wang Ning, Navy Political Commissar
Miao Hua, the new Commander Song Puxuan of Beijing
Military Region, Deputy Chief of Staff Qin Weijiang,
Shenyang Military Region Commander Wang Jiaocheng,
all have work experience in Nanjing Military Region.
This makes the “Nanjing faction" “hot"!
In this regard, “The French National Radio" says that
after Xi Jinping took power, he blew away Xu Caihou,
Guo Boxiong, their followers and their forces.
He also significantly promoted military officers
from the Nanjing Military Region.
Wang Ning and Song Puxuan then became
the key promoted figures.
Beijing politics watcher Hua Po, believes that in order
to master the army, Xi Jinping uses the way of cleaning
some military generals as well as swapping some key positions.
Beijing Chinese politics watcher Hua Po:
“Once an army general leaves his troops and even knowing
them for many years,
and if he even has some rebellious ideas and actions he wants
to take, he wont succeed.
Because the soldiers will no longer know the General
and the General does not know the soldiers.
This is the only way to control the armed forces."
However, during the top military reshuffle guided
by Xi Jinping,
another highlighted point is that all the Political Commissars
of the Navy, Air Force, Second Artillery Corps and the
Armed Police Forces,
are transferred from the generals of Land Force.
This is the first time in the history of the CCP.
Wu Fan believes to transfer the Land Force Generals
who have stubborn and backward ideas to manage the Navy,
Air Force, Second Artillery Corps which require the generals
to have professional knowledge and absorb the western
military thinking,
might not be such a good thing for the development
of the military forces in China.
