Chengdu, Sichuan Military Government. ±
Yin Changheng looked at the relevant situation of the rebellion in Chongqing reported by the people below, and he couldn't see any attitude towards this matter in his expression.
"Teacher, what do you think of the riots in Chongqing?" Yin Changheng asked suddenly.
Hu Jingyi, who had been drinking tea very seriously just now, put down the teacup and said slowly: "Shuoquan, it doesn't matter what I think, what matters is what the brothers in Sichuan will think." ”
"Really? Recently, many people in the military government have been very dissatisfied with Wang Mo's behavior against Brother Pao, and they hope to put pressure on Wang Mo in the name of the military government, right? Yin Changheng muttered in a low voice, as if he was asking Hu Jingyi, and as if he was talking to himself.
"There is no need to worry too much about this matter, in the name of the junta, a telegram was sent to condemn Chongqing's warlord style of wantonly slaughtering innocent people, and I believe that many people with lofty ideals will stand up and call on the people to resist the revolutionary army in southern Sichuan." Hu Jingyi smiled, and seemed to have seen the embarrassed appearance of the Wang family's father and son in the condemnation of public opinion.
"Okay, let's do it." Yin Changheng's expression was a little complicated, in fact, deep down he didn't dislike Wang Mo's move to eliminate the elder brother. Naturally, he knew very well that the influence of the Elder Brothers on all levels of society would definitely do more harm than harm to the rule of the military government. It's just a pity that he has been unclearly involved with the Elders' Association, and if he really wants to clear up the relationship between the Elders' Association, that is, to deceive the teacher and destroy the ancestors. As long as he shows the slightest hint of this, he may be ousted the next day.
"Chongqing doesn't have much influence on the military government, but the chaos in Tibet is not small, and it has already affected Xikang. I'm afraid that we have to put down the chaos, otherwise this mess will only get bigger and bigger. Hu Jingyi said worriedly, and then focused on drinking tea, as if he hadn't spoken at all.
If you observe carefully, you will find that Hu Jingyi is looking at Yin Changheng's expression change with the corner of his eye at this time, and seems to be very concerned about Yin Changheng's attitude towards the turmoil in Tibet.
Referring to the turmoil in Tibet, Yin Changheng looked grim and said hatefully: "There must be English people intervening behind the turmoil in Tibet, these insatiable foreigners are really hateful, and they don't want to encroach on and carve up my land of China all the time!" ”
Seeing Yin Changheng's attitude, the corners of Hu Jingyi's mouth couldn't help but show a hint of excitement, but he quickly covered it up, and said with a straight face: "What Shuoquan said is that the greed of foreigners is really hateful, and I think the military government should send troops to quell the chaos as soon as possible to curb the further interference of the British in Tibetan affairs." ”
Yin Chang looked at Hu Jingyi and asked, "If you want to send troops to quell the chaos, then the teacher thinks it is more appropriate for the teacher to lead the troops to the west?" ”
Hu Jingyi's expression froze slightly, but he quickly returned to normal, and said quietly: "Shuoquan, you are the overseer of the military government, and such a major military action should naturally be decided by you." ”
Yin Changheng glanced at Hu Jingyi deeply, as if thoughtful, and said for a long time: "It is very likely that the western expedition to quell the chaos will be interfered by the English by force, and the generals below may not have the courage to start a war with the foreigners, it is better for me to personally lead the western expedition." ”
Hu Jingyi could hardly suppress the ecstasy in his heart, and said with a smile: "Okay, good, with Shuoquan personally leading his troops to the west, I believe that he will be able to beat the rebels and greedy and shameless foreigners!" ”
Subsequently, the two discussed some preparations for the Western Expedition, and Hu Jingyi said goodbye and left.
As soon as Hu Jingyi left, he had been serving tea and water beside him, and Wei Ran, Yin Changheng's confidant adjutant, couldn't help but say: "Overseer, if you personally lead your troops to the west, I'm afraid there will be some chaos in Chengdu." ”
Yin Changheng smiled slightly: "I understand what you said, the teacher is ambitious and has always wanted to replace me." If I lead my troops to leave Chengdu, I'm afraid most of the teachers will do something. ”
"Then why are you still ......" Wei Ran was full of doubts, since he knew that Hu Jingyi had always coveted the position of the overseer, then why did he lead his troops to the west to give Hu Jingyi a chance?
"Quelling the rebellion in Tibet is a major matter for the country, so how can it be delayed because of my own selfishness? Even if I do lose my position as Overseer in the end, I'll cut off the claws of the English people! Yin Changheng's eyes flashed with a hint of fierceness, and then he smiled confidently, "Besides, the teacher may not be successful." Although the teacher is exquisite, and the relationship between the top and bottom of the military government is very good, he does not understand that the most important thing is to grasp military power. Soldiers pay attention to real strength, and teachers do not have the strength to convince the army. ”
In terms of the prestige of the army, Yin Changheng is very confident, he thinks that although Hu Jingyi, the old fox, is exquisite, he does not have the hard power to make the army succumb after all, and it will not pose much of a threat to him. If he takes 10,000 steps back, even if Hu Jingyi gains control of Chengdu for the first time, as long as he returns to the division with the Western Expeditionary Force in his hand, he can sweep away all rebellions at any time.
……
East Sichuan, Chongqing.
"Don't listen to rumors, the Zhenfu Mansion has absolutely no action against Brother Pao, you have to believe the Zhenfu Mansion!"
"Regarding the closure of shops and markets, citizens should not panic, the Zhenfu Government has urgently arranged for businesses to mobilize a large number of daily necessities. If you need to buy rice and noodles, meat, vegetables, and all kinds of miscellaneous goods, don't worry, go to the big market designated by Zhenfu Prefecture in an orderly manner, and you can buy all kinds of daily necessities at will! ”
"The following is an emergency order of the Zhenfu Government, and anyone who incites civil unrest will be arrested and sentenced to heavy punishment in accordance with the law!"
"Don't listen to rumors......
……
While maintaining order, the Chongqing Independent Division also had soldiers responsible for clarifying rumors and publicizing the relevant policies of the Zhenfu Prefecture.
At the same time, all kinds of daily necessities prepared by the Luzhou Chamber of Commerce were put on the shelves of the designated market for sale as soon as possible, and the citizens of Chongqing who were panicked because of the market boycott were soon appeased.
Standing outside the big market, looking at the Chongqing citizens who were lining up in an orderly manner to buy the corresponding daily necessities, Wang Mo was very satisfied, nodded and said to the people of the Luzhou Chamber of Commerce next to him: "You have worked hard, the turmoil in Chongqing can be quelled so quickly, you have made great contributions, I thank you on behalf of the Chongqing Zhenfu Government!" ”
The people of the Luzhou Chamber of Commerce hurriedly said politely: "Don't dare, don't dare, this is all the young marshal's strategy and plan." ”
"I have to tell you again, you must ensure the supply of all goods, and there must not be a situation where any kind of goods are sold out, otherwise the citizens of Chongqing, who have finally been appeased, are likely to panic on a large scale.
Qin Xianglin, president of the Luzhou Chamber of Commerce, took the lead in guaranteeing: "Don't worry, young marshal, we have all discussed, and we would rather have some surplus goods in our hands than let the situation of being out of stock appear!" ”
Wang Mo nodded with satisfaction, as if he had thought of something again, so he said: "It's better to be like this, why don't you Chamber of Commerce take this opportunity to open a branch in Chongqing, and it just so happens that the branch signboard will be played in the past few days." I don't think even after this upheaval, the semicolon business you have opened here will not be bad. I have specially approved some shops and market stalls for you, as a reward from the Zhenfu Government for your efforts this time, how about it? ”
Now take the opportunity to open a semicolon, it can be said that it will not take a few days, and the signboard of the semicolon will be well known among the citizens of Chongqing, and it is no wonder that the business will not be good in the future. This is a great thing, and everyone in the Luzhou Chamber of Commerce is overjoyed.
"What the young marshal said is that we will let people play the signboard of the semicolon and send people to set up the semicolon overnight!"
There are few Luzhou branches that can't see the huge benefits here, and they responded to Wang Mo's proposal without hesitation.
Originally, they came to Chongqing to help, but in the end, it became the Chongqing Zhenfu Mansion to help them set up a branch and expand the market.
"Okay, I will let the Zhenfu Mansion send someone to assist in the location of your semicolon, as long as it is not a private property, I can take it back through an administrative order, and then hand it over to you to operate." Wang Mo was also very happy to say that he was certainly happy to see these people stationed in Chongqing and seize the market.
As long as the branch of the Luzhou Chamber of Commerce is established in Chongqing, it will not only prosper the market in Chongqing, but also help further weaken the influence of the Elders' Association.
At this time, Qin Xianglin came to Wang Mo's side and asked in a low voice: "The strike shouldn't have much impact, I don't know how the young marshal is going to clean up those robes of the Elders' Association?" ”
The reason why there was such a question was actually that Qin Xianglin was a little worried that Wang Mo was young and vigorous, regardless of using the army to suppress the Elders' Association. If that is the case, it will be a completely bad thing, and now he and the South Sichuan Revolutionary Army can be said to be both prosperous and loss, and they have long been tied together, so they naturally do not want the South Sichuan Revolutionary Army to decline.
Wang Mo smiled and said, "Old Qin, I know what you're worried about. Don't worry, I'm not stupid enough to shoot and kill people, and I can't kill Brother Pao if I shoot. ”
Qin Xianglin breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "What is the young marshal going to do?" Brother Pao is a trouble after all, if it can be completely solved, the business of us businessmen will be much better. ”
"Since you can't come to martial arts, it's naturally a communication." Wang Mo smiled coldly, "As long as I am under the jurisdiction of the Southern Sichuan Revolutionary Army, I will let everyone know clearly that life with the identity of Brother Pao will be more difficult than living without the identity of Brother Pao, and the identity of Brother Pao will be even more unpopular than without the identity of Brother Pao!" ”
"Hiss-" Qin Xianglin gasped, this was completely the official invisible discrimination against the robe brothers, and he could almost see the miserable life of the robe brothers under Wang Mo's rule in the future.
That's right, that's what Wang Mo intended, whether it was work, medical care, education, etc., he would give Brother Pao invisible discriminatory treatment through the Zhenfu Mansion.
What are ordinary people joining the Pao Ge organization for, not to have a better life, to protect themselves from being bullied and exploited. Once they find out that the identity of Brother Pao on their bodies not only does not make them live better, but makes them difficult step by step, they will definitely choose to give up the identity of Brother Pao.
Over time, once the lower-class people withdraw from the Pao Brother's organization, the influence of the Elder Brother's Association will be greatly reduced, and then the people in the upper class who want to borrow the huge influence of the Elder Brother's Association to make profits will inevitably withdraw from the Elder Brother's organization because they can't get what they want, or even lose their interests because of this.
As long as this continues, it will only be a matter of time before the Brotherhood disintegrates.
