Chapter 284: The Northern Beggars Suddenly Changed
Mai Ke, Wu Renxiao, Qi Shiren and other old brothers, Tan Guo and other leaders of the Holy City, came together to welcome the arrival of Wei Changhui and others.
Although they were transported by the spirit rhino in an instant, they did not come out of the earth, because they were all covered and spotless. How it came about, since it is not something that can be operated by man, it is not something that can be understood by human intelligence.
Anyway, they arrived like that, just like nature, and happened to meet Mai Ke and the others who were answering.
The two sides inevitably have some introductions. Mai Ke looked at the leading group of the expedition to the north, and they were basically acquaintances. Okay! Bring over all the backbones of Yang Xiuqing's group!
Sure enough, it is to ask someone to give it to someone!
It turned out that when Wei Changhui was forming the group, one of his leading ideas was to include as many people as possible who had experienced the Northern Expedition. He also has a thought with Mai Ke, that is, to let these heroes' unfinished ambitions be realized with their own hands with their own crossings!
Therefore, Li Kaifang came, and his sworn brother Lin Fengxiang also came.
Then came Huang Qiduan, Xie Jinsheng, Li Tianyou, Tan Yougui, Wei Mingfu, Cao Dexiang and others, all of whom were Li Kaifang's right-hand men during the Northern Expedition, and went to the disaster with him in the end.
There are also Ji Wenyuan, Zhu Xikun, Huang Yiyun and others, these people are all important generals who follow Lin Fengxiang. Also along were Zeng Lichang, Chen Renbao, Xu Zongyang and others, who also participated in the Northern Expedition of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom.
These people were all the upper- and middle-level military leaders of Yang Xiuqing's regiment. In real history, they were mistakenly sent to the battlefield of doomed defeat. Despite the arduous battle, they were completely defeated, and all of them died heroically on the battlefield or on the enemy's execution ground.
Looking at Fu Shanxiang coming side by side with Wei Changhui, Mai Ke couldn't help but be secretly happy in his heart, he personally dismantled the pair in front, and secretly had a chance to match the pair in the back?
Mai Ke gave Wei Changhui a hug: "Fourth brother, good job." I'm optimistic about you!" said in his ear.
Then he shook hands with Fu Ruixiang: "Welcome, we are old acquaintances in a foreign land!
Then the teaching group and the military pastoral group were handed over to the relevant personnel to arrange and contact the work, and Mai Ke held a small summit meeting with Tan Guo, Wei Changhui, and Gu Yanzhi to discuss how to set up the decision-making body here.
After a brief summary and discussion, Mai Ke made a decision: Wei Changhui is the leader here. The decision is final. At the same time, he was also responsible for this military construction and military operations.
As mayor, Tan Guo is responsible for all administrative work, including material supply and social security.
Gu Yanzhi was responsible for the establishment of the system, the improvement of the organization and other affairs related to the construction of political power. Once these things are established, they will be handed over to Tan Guo to operate and implement.
Next. Everyone did as they had said. went to participate in the reception banquet in response to the arrival of Wei Changhui and others. As soon as he stood up, he saw Qi Shiren and Wu Renxiao running over in a hurry.
Mai Ke knew at a glance that there was something urgent, otherwise there were few people in the world who could make these two come in a hurry.
Let Tan Guo and Wei Changhui go to the banquet first. Eat at the end of the day, don't wait for him, and then Mai Ke turned to ask the two of them what was so urgent.
"Something has happened to the beggars!" the beggars said, his eager accent revealing a little excitement.
What? When something happened to the beggar gang, how could the leader of the gang still seem to be a little bit as he wished? Immediately, it suddenly became clear that it must be the northern beggars! People have always been accustomed to calling the northern beggars a beggar, and the southern beggars a southern beggar.
"No hurry, sit down and say. He said to Wu Renxiao again: "Brother Jiu, are you also in this matter?"
"Yes. My source also said that something had happened to the beggar gang, so I came with Brother Qi to report it. ”
Subsequently, the two of them introduced the news from different sources to Mai Ke.
At present, the situation of the beggar gang is basically the same as when Hong Shibai Gong was alive, and the outside is divided into two beggar gangs, north and south. The difference is that the Southern Beggars Gang no longer has two major factions.
Because the leader of the compromise faction, Jia Daren, who was in charge of the property at the time, had already lost a complete defeat in the last battle for help, while the non-surrendering faction led by Xiao Qian won a big victory.
A long time ago, Xiao Qi and the others already knew that those compromise factions had connections with the Northern Beggars Gang, and that Jia Dayi, the leader of the Northern Beggars Gang, was said to be the uncle and brother of Elder Jia here.
With the help of Mai Ke, Xiao Qi not only defeated Elder Jia's conspiracy to seize power, and ascended to the position of gang leader, but also attacked and defended the situation, and began to infiltrate the Northern Beggars. Wait for the opportunity to unify the beggars.
At present, the distribution of beggars in the southern provinces is basically the same as before. in 18 provinces in the interior. The northern and southern beggars are bounded by the Changjiang River, the south of the Yangtze River belongs to the Southern Beggar Gang, and the north of the Yangtze River belongs to the North Beggar Gang.
In this way, the Changjiang River basin to the south of the south bank of the Changjiang River and the entire Zhujiang River basin, including the Xijiang River basin, really belong to the Nanbeg Gang. The Northern Beggars Gang is the Changjiang River Basin and the Barren River Basin to the north on the north bank of the Changjiang River.
From the perspective of provinces, the power of the northern and southern beggar gangs, Liangguang (Guangxi and Guangdong), Lianghu (Hunan and Hubei), as well as the southeast and southwest regions all belonged to the Southern Beggar Gang, and Liangshan (Yidong and Xixi), Lianghe (Henan and Hebei) and the northwest region were all under the Beibei Beggar Gang.
As for the northeast region, which was the birthplace of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, the power of the beggar gang had not yet penetrated into it. More remote areas, such as Xizang and Xinjiang, have not yet been taken into account.
Although these places did not have the obvious control of the strength of the beggar gang, according to Mai Ke's request, the beggar gang had already sent many manpower to establish strongholds and even attack bases.
Like the Southern Beggar Gang, the beggar gang was also divided into compromise factions and non-surrender factions, but the power of the non-surrender faction was very small before. However, Elder Jia's defeat in the Southern Beggar Gang severely frustrated the compromise faction of the Northern Beggars Gang, but greatly encouraged the Non-surrendering faction. At the same time, the Southern Beggars Gang also increased their support for these non-surrendering factions.
When one side weakens and the other side grows, the contradictions become more and more acute and the conflicts become more and more frequent. Finally, the contradiction reached the point of irreconcilability. The non-surrendering faction resolutely demanded that the gang leader Jia Dayi step down.
Under this pressure, the Northern Beggar Gang decided to hold a meeting of the Beggar Gang on September 20, and the two factions decided to decide who owned the throne of the gang leader.
Originally, he was confident in this duel without sending the compromisers, but he learned that the Manchu court sent Ouchi masters to help these compromisers in order to support the compromisers to remain in power!
In this way, the two sides, which were originally evenly matched, became the non-surrendering faction to hit the stone with an egg. After weighing it for a long time, he decided to ask the Southern Beggars for help.
They're finally out!
Mai Ke has always had an incomprehensible feeling about these people. Now that they are out of the hole, I have the opportunity to know them firsthand. Well done!
As for the strength of the Northern Beggars to help themselves, Mai Ke really didn't pay attention to it.
Since there is this rare opportunity, the unification of the beggar gang will be solved by the way! (To be continued......
PS: With the help of the southern beggars, the non-surrendering faction of the northern beggars demanded that the compromise gang leader abdicate, so it was decided that the two factions would compete to determine who the gang leader would be. The Ouchi master was dispatched, and Mai Ke became interested in it.
