Chapter 40: Martial Arts

What are you afraid of, Zhang Hanqing sighed to himself. He speculated that Lu Jin's fake attack was half because of himself, but the bigger reason was probably to argue with Xu Shuzheng, right? Everyone knows that because the office seized the power of the War Department and the model regiment replaced Duan Qirui's position in the Beiyang military circles, Xu Shuzheng has never had a good face, and he used the rules to pinch him well in many things. This time I took the opportunity to attack and killed two birds with one stone. Unfortunately, I became an innocent bird.

I hate this kind of factional struggle the most, because it will make Zhang Hanqing particularly helpless---- and there are often characters with big people behind him, how can Zhang Hanqing, who is alone at the feet of the Son of Heaven, feel embarrassed?

Topping the bull is not a way, that will only make the situation worse, after all, Zhang Hanqing still hopes that the matter can be done in the end, he chose to keep a low profile: "Since Director Lu has an opinion on this transfer letter, it is better to ask Vice Minister Xu to communicate with you in person." "Now that the words have been spoken, there is no need for him to make peace from them, let the two great gods talk enough.

Xu Shuzheng was looking at the empty porch in a daze at this time. Since the abolition of the Military Department of the Presidential Palace, the status of the War Department has plummeted, and it has no decision-making power except for handling some trivial matters, and it has become an errand organ for the Generalissimo of the Army and Navy to command the office. This deputy director is not interesting, let's go home and set up a school, that is also one of Xu Shuzheng's interests.

There was a jagged footstep in the distance, Xu Shuzheng was a martial artist, and he was very sensitive to this. He pushed open the door and saw several people walking in the distance, the first one was his nominal superior, Wang Shizhen, who had not been in office for a long time; Immediately behind him is also an old acquaintance, that is, Tanaka Yu, who is rumored to replace him. "Coming so soon?" He thought with a sneer.

Wang Shizhen, known as the "Dragon of the Beiyang", has always pursued the style of seeing the head of the dragon without seeing the end, and Ya does not want to fall into party disputes. For replacing Duan Qirui as the army commander, the enthusiasm is not very high, which Xu Shuzheng can treat differently. Acting on orders, understandably.

For Tian Zhongyu, he doesn't give a good face, although nominally, Tian is also a line of Anhui, but this person's position is not firm, and now he is hugging Yuan Shikai's thigh. Otherwise, in any case, he would not be able to mix with this position. Of course, Xu Shuzheng's view of people is still relatively accurate, four years after the official history, in the Battle of Zhiwan, Tanaka Yu sat back and watched the defeat of the Anhui system.

Therefore, when Wang Shizhen, Tian Zhongyu and him briefly made a noise, Xu Shuzheng said directly: "Brother Tian is here to get Xu's official seal?" ”

Tanaka Yu was very embarrassed, and he didn't dare to compete with him---- didn't he see who was standing behind him? The Republic of China is a very peculiar era, officialdom one after another has become the norm, the post of prime minister from Tang Shaoyi, through Lu Zhengxiang, Zhao Bingjun, Duan Qirui, Zhu Qichao, Xiong Xiling, Sun Baoqi, Xu Shichang (renamed Secretary of State), in just four years has changed eight terms.

Who knows what the future holds? This kind of marquee-like substitution, everyone doesn't dare to tear their faces too much, just to meet in the future. Xu Shuzheng was dismissed, and naturally he was in a bad mood, and it was the same for anyone. Besides, what kind of person he is, everyone knows it, and there is no need to call him true. Whoever wants to call it true loses first.

Wang Shizhen rushed to the round: "Another Zheng, it's too unkind to say this, is Zhongyu such a person?" He is just on the orders of the president to make some preparations for the handover with you in advance, and if there is anything unfinished, just hand it over to Zhongyu to do. In fact, just today, Yuan Shikai ordered Xu to be dismissed from his post and replaced Lu Ci with Tanaka Yu. This order and the letter of appointment are all in his arms, but he is afraid of the temper of this Xiao Xu (is his other nickname, to distinguish it from Lao Xu ----Beiyang veteran Xu Shichang), and he is thinking about how to speak all the way.

"I've been ready for the handover for a long time---- but there's nothing to hand over again." Xu Shuzheng said sarcastically, not giving face at all.

Tanaka Yu can only hehe, and Wang Shizhen, as the chief officer, has no unhappy feelings. Let Xu resign with dignity and let Tian take office safely is the role that he, a well-known good man in Beiyang, wants to play. Usually, the so-called "not getting caught up in party disputes" in politics is actually synonymous with mud and good people.

The two of them ignored Xu Shuzheng's sarcasm, and just diligently asked Xiao Xu if there was anything he needed help with, which made Xu Shuzheng's stomach full of fire unable to release, and at this time Zhang Hanqing came.

Zhang Hanqing would not ease Lu Jin's cheeks, he brought Lu Jin's words one by one, and these unmodified words made Xu Shuzheng's resentment burst out. A few military industry experts and a major general, when is it worth his big move! There are still people who dare to slap their faces in the face! "This is bullying me to step down, you want to show me a face!" Xu Shuzheng has such a high official position, and he doesn't want to appear that the city government is deeper, he gritted his teeth and said: "Okay, Lu Jin, do you want to show me your face when you climb the high branch?" I'm going to meet you personally! ”

Being able to get rid of Xu Shuzheng's attack posture, Tanaka Yu and Wang Shizhen both breathed a sigh of relief. This Xu Shuzheng is an extremely bold commodity, Lu Jin is afraid that he will not be able to be good when he meets him, right? Who you don't want to mess with? Unconsciously, they all gloated for Lu Jin, and they were not grateful to him for diverting Xu Shuzheng's attention.

Lu Jin hasn't left yet, he deliberately established himself in the office today. The Office has several departments of military affairs, general affairs, and personnel, but there is no nominal deputy director, which makes it inevitable that several directors of the department will be a little moved. Although the president has the name of a director, he has a lot of family affairs, so how can anyone stay here in idleness, so whoever becomes the deputy director will control the most important unit in the Republic of China.

Usually, everyone is at odds with each other, but no one has enough performance to convince others. If Lu Jin wants to establish power, he wants to take a powerful person, and he chose the War Department, which used to be an external threat and competed with the office for power, and the target was Xu Shuzheng.

In normal times, he didn't dare to touch Xiao Xu's moldy head. Deliberately chose today because as a close confidant of the future prince Yuan Keding, he learned that Xu Shuzheng was going to be dismissed by the president today. Once he loses the aura of the deputy chief of the army, what confidence can Xu Shuzheng have to fight him? As long as he is defeated, who will dare to fight with him in the office?

So even if there is no matter of Zhang Hanqing, he will find out the reason.

At this moment, he was sitting in a precarious position, and scolded Huai with a fierce voice: "How old is that Zhang Xueliang, and what is his position in the army?" Want him to go back and forth to handle such an important military matter? What authority does the War Department have to transfer such important personnel? The president's orders, you don't pay attention to them?! ”

dared to go toe-to-toe with Xu Shuzheng, he was still the first person in the Republic of China, and even Tang Zaili was suppressed, so he didn't care about the doubt that Lu Jin had actually overstepped his authority. Seeing that Tang Zaili did not come out, other offices willingly let Lu Jin play, which made Lu Jin enjoy such high prestige in the office for the first time.

Sure enough, it is "shooting people and horses first, and catching thieves and kings first", the hard-headed brothers who are stronger than all the halls of the office dare to gnaw, who else is not convinced? He was foaming at the mouth proudly, but he didn't notice that the faces of the office staff opposite were green, and he thought it was due to his own prestige, and he was in a good mood.

At this moment, I suddenly heard a loud shout from behind: "Bastard surnamed Lu, you dare to find my fault!" What kind of hatred do I have with you, you want to yin me like this! Before he could turn around, he suddenly felt a gust of wind coming, and he couldn't react, and he saw that the Venus in front of him had already been beaten with a smack, and he was almost planted under his seat. Of course, the other party uses his hands.

This time it was really unexpected, in the country's highest military powerhouse, someone would suddenly stage a full military exercise against him, the director of the military affairs department! He shook his dizzy head, and as an instinct, he hit the man behind him.

Xu Shuzheng is just a young man, he is strong, he comes with anger, and he is prepared, how can he be easily beaten? After a slight flash, he grabbed Lu Jin's arm and put him behind his back, and kicked him a few steps away when he raised his foot. Because it was a military boot, the soreness of the kick on the hip bone was indescribable.

Lu Jin suffered a big loss in front of everyone, how could he give up? And if he doesn't get this loss back, don't say that he is fighting for a position in the office, even if he sits on him, he will be embarrassed. He yelled, got up and pounced, and twisted with Xu Shuzheng. It is estimated that if there is a gun, Lu Jinzhen will shoot him with one shot.

The people in the office, you look at me, I look at you, and they don't dare to come forward to pull the rack. If the gods fight, don't worry about it, if someone on both sides thinks that he has pulled a bias, it will be thankless!

As long as our initiator, Zhang Hanqing, watched the undisciplined scuffle between the two high-ranking military circles in a daze, and thought to himself: "It's not that it's safe to be a high-ranking official, no matter how many guards there are in this kind of thing, it's better to be able to strengthen your body normally." I don't know if it gave him the idea of exercising, anyway, from this day on, Zhang Hanqing consciously carried out physical training. He lived for a hundred years in the canonical history, and I am afraid that it has something to do with this idea of parallel to space.

Just as there was chaos in the field, a voice angrily rebuked: "What kind of system? Is the office a place for you to find a fight? And is there not a bit of an officer's face! But it was Yuan Shikai's rare inspection office, and he also witnessed this all-out martial arts.

The system is gone. Lu Jin's face was already blue and purple, and the corners of his eyes were also blue; In contrast, Xu Shuzheng, who is physically strong, is better, but the collar badge is pulled and the military uniform is not so upright.

Lao Yuan's anger came from the bottom of his heart. Who is Lu Jin? That is an important henchman he trained for his son in the army! He was beaten, it was a blow in the face, it was in defiance of his authority! The first phase of the model regiment had already achieved initial results, and suddenly a chief officer was beaten, which had a fatal impact on the morale of the army. This Xu Shuzheng has gone too far! As soon as he was relieved of his post as undersecretary of the army, he immediately returned the favor to his people, and shouted hard! If this thorn is not disposed of, how can it stand up to everyone and at this important juncture!

It's just that Xu Shuzheng is not an ordinary person, and it is a little hot to deal with.
