With the Xia Wei Brigade of the Seventh Army of the Central Column taking Ezhou with lightning speed, the Eighth Army of the Left Column He Jianshi occupying Hanyang, the Eastern Route Army in the direction of Fujian Province was like a bamboo, and the Second, Third and Sixth Armies in the direction of Jiangxi Province successively occupied Ji'an, Wanzai, Yuanzhou and other important places, and the Northern Expeditionary Army Headquarters decisively adjusted its battle plan.

The seven divisions of the Fourth Army, the Eighth Army and the Tenth Army changed the strong attack to the siege, forcibly occupied Hanyang, Hankou, Xiaogan, and Huangpi, and caused the enemy troops on the north bank to flee frantically to the east, and tens of thousands of defenders of Wuchang City fell into the encirclement.

Immediately afterwards, the first division of Commander-in-Chief Chiang's descendants turned around and moved south, attacking Tonggu in Jiangxi Province through Yueyang and Liuyang, and the three brigades of the Seventh Army, which had been replenished, marched eastward to Daye and Yangxin, and approached Jiujiang.

On 17 September, the General Headquarters of the Northern Expeditionary Army left Wuchang and headed for Jiangxi Province.

At Zheng Heng's strong request, Zheng Yi brought him into the Wuchang Military Station, which had been listed, and returned to the office of the regiment headquarters after walking around for most of the time.

"Is the winter gear down? I see that most of the shoes of the officers and men under your command are worn out, why don't I send you thousands of pairs of British-made rubber-soled military shoes? ”

Zheng Yi thought for a while and asked, "Your drug business with the armies is still going well, right?" ”

Zheng Heng showed a bright smile: "It's too smooth, in the past month, the total amount of medicines and medical devices purchased by the four of you is millions, and by the fifteenth, our pharmaceutical company has obtained at least three hundred and fifty thousand net profits, not counting the quantity that is being traded and the quantity that will be sold in the future......"

"Oh yes, the three divisions under the command of Wu Dashuai in Wuchang City also bought 300,000 oceans of medicine and food."

"Is your shipyard still there?" Zheng Yi asked again.

Zheng Heng nodded: "Yes, I am not willing to transfer, and the four eight-hundred-ton cargo ships purchased last year are all under the strict protection of British warships and sailors, don't worry, no problem, but there are frequent disputes at present, and I dare not sail out for the time being." ”

Zheng Yi thought for a moment: "I suggest that you take all the freighters to the Shanghai Sea to avoid it, and the shipyards and machinery and equipment firms should also be temporarily closed, the British made an extremely barbaric Wanxian tragedy at the wharf and the upper and lower sections of Wanxian in Sichuan Province, and more than 700 of my soldiers and civilians died under the British naval guns and machine guns, and all the departments of the revolutionary army will definitely not be able to swallow this grievance, and once they take Wuchang, they will definitely retaliate." ”

Zheng Heng was stunned: "No, right?" Aren't you afraid of retaliation from the British Navy? Wasn't Commander-in-Chief Chiang worried about getting into a diplomatic dispute? ”

Zheng Yi knocked on the table impatiently: "Do you think Commander-in-Chief Jiang can restrain Tang Shengzhi and the radical faction of various armies?" At present, the four armies of the local princes in Wuhan all want to fish in troubled waters, who can guarantee that no one will take risks? ”

"If I hadn't asked you to sell medicine to Tang Shengzhi, would you think he and his insatiable generals would treat you with great courtesy? The Nationalist Government and the Central Party Headquarters successively issued orders, and the General Headquarters of the Northern Expeditionary Army held a special meeting to form a resolution to nationalize the Hanyang Arsenal. ”

"After the capture of Wuchang, the general trend of the revolution has been achieved, and the next step is to crack down on traitors and traitors, so you can't see this huge crisis? I remember when I was a child, the old man told you the story of blessing and misfortune, and now we have earned a huge amount of national disaster, and if we don't keep a low profile and take precautions, there will be no tears when we cry! ”

Zheng Heng's face changed greatly, and he immediately realized that Zheng Yi must have obtained some top-secret information, hesitated slightly, and nodded heavily: "When I go back, I will do what you want immediately, and I will not delay." ”

"I remember that the shipyard has a speedboat that can carry fifty people, can you lend it to me for a while if it's still there?" Zheng Yi asked.

Zheng Heng generously agreed: "I'll let the technician overhaul it when I go back, a few steps west of your camp is Baisha Wharf, and I'll send someone to drive it over." ”

"Thanks!"

Zheng Yi thought for a while and said: "We have distributed winter clothes and military quilts, but the quality of military shoes is too poor, you can send me five thousand pairs, and I will give you how much it is." ”

Zheng Heng glared at him reproachfully: "Don't mention money to me, hurt your feelings, I'll send you 10,000 pairs, but I don't feel at ease when I put them in the warehouse, they are all Zhongbang military shoes made of brown canvas fabric with thick rubber soles, and the quality is very good." ”

Zheng Yi nodded: "I'll give you a purchase list when I go back, and you will hand it over to Holstein, the manager of Lulin Company in East China." In addition, my sister said that she wanted to open a newspaper to pass the time, and I think you should support her, and it will be of great help to your "Chutian Daily" if you do a good job, and we can also buy radio stations to exchange news, and it will be more convenient for us to have any urgent matters ourselves. ”

"I've thought about it, and my father agrees with it, but my father tends to go to the French Concession to buy a tabloid, and then make it bigger and better, since you also have this opinion, I will also join a share, I am now a British citizen, and I can't control the newspaper in China." Zheng Heng is much more mature and decisive than a year ago.

Zheng Yi waited for him to finish drinking a cup of tea, stood up and ordered: "I want to see the training and assessment of the recruits, so I won't leave you, you will send the speedboat for me tomorrow, and remember to plant a Northern Expeditionary Army battle flag on the bow of the ship." ”

Zheng Heng was quite surprised: "Why are you in such a hurry?" ”

Zheng Yi didn't hide it from him: "I want to go to Huangzhou the day after tomorrow and call Xu Maofu to serve as my adjutant to see if I can persuade my godfather and godmother to move to Hong Kong." ”

"The Hunan army, which was defeated by our army in the previous period, retreated all the way to the east along the north bank, and where the routed army passed, they looted and killed like locusts, doing all kinds of evil, and I don't know whether they are dead or alive now."

"Besides, when the old man went to Hong Kong, he didn't bring a few useful subordinates, I want my godfather and godmother to serve in the past, you also know that my godfather is a family kung fu, with him next to the old man, it is more effective than ten subordinates, and it can also save me and Xu Maofu from worrying about the future, otherwise I will regret it one day."

Zheng Heng sighed, nodded and walked out of the gate, and when he arrived at the parking place at the gate of the hospital, Zheng Yi took out a pair of military plates from the trunk of his special car and gave it to him:

"Your Buick sedan is too ostentatious, go back and change it, this is the special license plate of our General Headquarters, you take it and hang it, all departments of the Northern Expeditionary Army know it, and all parties also give face...... Okay, I'm not going to send you. ”

Zheng Heng took the license plate, only to feel that his nose was sour, his eyes were hot, and Zheng Yi's back became confused in an instant.
