Chapter 61: Yangzhou Rebellion (1)
Deciding to deal with the Cao Gang, they would not hesitate to offend the Yanyun Division, and the two brothers began to discuss carefully, but the wisdom of the two was obviously not enough to do this. Wang Yongtai, the www.biquge.info of the pen "Fun" Pavilion, then called his confidants, the first standard Yang Zhenshan, the second standard Xi Wusheng, and the fourth standard Wang Deyue. Later, Wang Yongan suggested that he call staff officer Feng Heng and the chief of the quartermaster department Luo Yinxian, the inspection office inspector Gong Wuyuan, and the adjutant Li Yao. It is not a trivial matter to do something to the Cao Gang, and everyone must plan carefully, only the henchmen can participate in this plan, and only the confidants can realize the one-time subversion of the Cao Gang.
Before the meeting began, Wang Yongtai set a tone, the Cao Gang hides the revolutionary party, and it is the backbone of the Cao Gang, so it is necessary to launch a military operation against the Cao Gang, and today's meeting is a secret meeting, and no one is allowed to disclose the news and rumors, so as not to let the Cao Gang's revolutionary party run away in advance.
Everyone looked at each other, not believing that the general was going to deal with the Cao Gang, but since it was the duty of the soldiers to obey orders, everyone had to ********.
Wang Yongtai said that since he led his army from Jinan to Yangzhou last year, he has recruited 800 new soldiers locally (northern Jiangsu) and 400 from other places (basically northern Anhui), plus the original 600 people from the old battalion (composed of people from Lu Province and Zhili Province) to make up the 1,800 soldiers of the 24 mixed brigades. But the Cao Gang has lived in the local area for a hundred years, and the big and small people in Yangzhou City are related to the Cao Gang, so there must be spies from the Cao Gang in the 24th Mixed Brigade, and if you want to deal with the Cao Gang, you can obviously only use people from the 600 old battalions. This time, to deal with the Cao Gang, it was necessary to leave 100 people to deter the recruits, so they could only use 500 old battalion soldiers to deal with more than 3,000 Cao Gang.
"General, I will take away 500 people in the name of training, and bring enough weapons and ammunition." Yang Zhenshan suggested.
Xi Wusheng calmly analyzed: "Those recruits are not all untrustworthy, now we are mainly not worried about the local recruits in Yangzhou, as long as we don't distribute bullets to them, they can't make any trouble." In the past few days, I can secretly mobilize some Jiangbei children (northern Anhui Province), and cooperate with some veterans, and the military camp will definitely be fine. ”
Feng Heng said on the side: "We also have to guard against the Dingzi Battalion, the Dingzi Battalion obeys the orders of the Salt Transportation Division, and the Salt Transportation Division colludes with the Cao Gang, so I am afraid that this Dingzi Battalion will be troublesome." ”
"What Staff Officer Feng said is very true." Wang Yongtai said, "What about the Dingzi camp......
Li Yao was eager to say something at this time, but he was soft-spoken and didn't dare to speak, Wang Yongan saw it and immediately asked, "Li Yao, what do you have to say?" ”
Li Yao immediately said, "Well...... Well...... What I want to ask for is that Li Zupei, the manager of the Dingzi camp, has recently become obsessed with a new kiln sister in Tianyue Building, and has lived in Tianyue Building for three nights. ”
"Lao Li, how do you know?" Luo Yinxian asked.
Li Yaosheng blushed and said, "I...... Haven't I been looking for a revolutionary party in the city these days...... I looked around and wondered if the revolutionary party would be in the kiln......"
Everyone laughed, knowing that this Li Yao likes women, and all the money in his hand has been put into the kiln, so it is really not strange to say that he knows the news.
Wang Yongtai also smiled and said: "In this case, Li Yao, you are responsible for watching Li Zupei that night, if he is honest on Sister Yao'er's belly, it will be fine, if he is not honest, you will directly knock him out." ”
Li Yao patted his chest and promised: "General, you don't have to be so troublesome, you just need to put some fierce medicine in his wine, so that he can't leave the belly of that kiln sister, even if he comes down from that mother's belly, he has to step on the air." ”
"Hahahaha......"
After the plan was made, everyone began to prepare, Wang Yongan returned to the mansion, and told Tang Yunzhi to stay in the Wang family's old mansion for the past few nights. Unexpectedly, Tang Yunyi's wife quit, and ran to Wang's house to scold and scold, saying that Old Tang, you broke your shoes outside and didn't go home...... Seeing this, Wang Yongan immediately asked Tang Yunyi's wife to be locked up, warning her to bury her directly if she screamed again.
Tang's wife was so frightened that she didn't dare to say much, she looked at Old Tang with tears in her eyes, Old Tang wanted to ask for mercy, but when she saw Wang Yongan winking at him, she suddenly understood the meaning, and said with a cold face: "You have to reflect here for a few days, hum!" The old ladies are babbling every day, do you think you can be anywhere? Suffer a little today, lest you die in the future, I don't know, how did my old Tang marry you stupid mother-in-law! ”
The deadline is getting closer and closer, and the atmosphere in Yangzhou City is becoming more and more tense, and even several Cao Gang's gangs have been arrested by soldiers for fighting on the street in the past few days. Long Peifu, the leader of the Cao Gang, hurriedly feasted Wang Yongtai, hoping that he could release people in his own face, and also warned: "General Wang, you are also from Yangzhou, so you naturally know what this Yangzhou Cao Gang means, give your brother a face, and also give yourself a face." ”
Long Peifu didn't threaten Wang Yongtai, this Wang Yongtai's temperament belonged to the temper of a donkey who was holding and not leaving, and he suddenly became angry, kicked Long Peifu's table over, pulled out a pistol and pointed it at Long Peifu's head and scolded angrily: "Which fucking onion and garlic are you?" How dare you threaten me? I'll your grandma, I'll kill you today. ”
Long Peifu trembled with fright, and hurriedly relented.
The banquet did not disperse in a panic, but strengthened Wang Yongtai's determination to deal with Long Peifu.
On the last day of the imperial court period, Wang Yongtai ordered Yang Zhenshan to lead 500 elite soldiers to Zhenjiang for training, and in the evening, Wang Yongtai ordered Xi Wusheng to lead 400 soldiers to be responsible for martial law, and the rest of the soldiers collected weapons and ammunition, and the military camp entered a state of emergency.
Chief of Staff Zhang Jimin was taken aback, and hurriedly found Wang Yongtai to ask what was going on, why he didn't know about the training, and Wang Yongtai did not make any excuses, and directly told Zhang Jimin that he was going to deal with the Cao gang of the privately hidden revolutionary party tonight.
"What? Cao Gang? Hiding the Revolutionary Party? Zhang Jimin was taken aback, and immediately jumped up and said, "Impossible! No way! ”
"What? Could it be that Chief of Staff Zhang has an affair with the Cao Gang? Knowing full well that they will not have revolutionaries among them? Wang Yongtai asked coldly.
Zhang Jimin shook his head and said, "How can I have an affair with the Cao Gang? It's just that the relationship between this Cao Gang and the imperial court is so deep, they rely on the Qing Dynasty to have their current status, if it is said that the most anti-Qing country in the world is the Cao Gang. ”
Wang Yongtai said: "People's hearts are the most unpredictable, how do you know that they will not change their minds?" I already have the evidence, Chief of Staff Zhang, you don't need to doubt it. ”
Zhang Jimin sneered: "As far as I know, two days ago, the general had a big quarrel with Long Peifu, the leader of the Cao Gang......
"So you suspect me of faking the public and the private?" Wang Yongtai said.
Zhang Jimin said: "As the chief of staff of the 24th Mixed Association, he naturally has to think about the 24th Mixed Association, instead of devoting himself to his own future as collateral with the 24th Mixed Association. ”
Wang Yongtai said angrily: "You don't need to be yin and yang, Lao Tzu knows that you are this virtue, you can't help me, but you have a hand in pulling my hind legs." You stay here tonight, don't go anywhere, I'm going to arrest the revolutionary party!" If you want to shelter the Revolutionary Party, wait until I destroy the Cao Gang and then protect it. ”
"You...... You dare to imprison me? Zhang Jimin was furious.
Wang Yongtai also turned his face and said coldly: "You'd better not move, we are still good colleagues, if you move, there must be no accidents in the action." ”
Zhang Jimin saw that Wang Yongan's hand was already on the pistol, and knew that the Wang brothers were really murderous, so he had to be silent and sit on the chair and drink tea.
