Chapter Seventy-Three: The Thoughts of the Crowd

Since the occupation of Chengdu, Li Hongxiang, who is the commander of the first division and also serves as the commander of the Chengdu garrison, is much more comfortable now than half a month ago, when he was busy all day long. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

When I first entered Sichuan, the whole of Sichuan was in turmoil, and all the forces in the territory were intertwined, not only the Qing army, but even the revolutionary party divided into several forces, such as the League of Brothers, the Elders' Association, and the Constitutionalists. This situation did not begin to reverse until a few days ago when Li Hongxiang made up his mind to start rectification.

On this day, when Gu Pinzhen came to the headquarters, Li Hongxiang happened to correct the documents, drinking tea and reading a book in his hand. When he took a closer look, he found that it was the "Army Infantry Detachment Tactical Textbook" issued by the army, and after this leading operation, he also had a deep understanding of the tactics in the textbook.

"Comrade division commander, Gu Pinzhen, commander of the Seventh Infantry Regiment, came to report."

"Shinozai, you're here. Sit down! Looking up at Gu Pinzhen, Li Hongxiang pointed to the chair next to him and said to Gu Pinzhen.

Gu Pinzhen is not polite to Li Hongxiang, in addition to the relationship between the two of them is superior-superior, they usually have a very good personal relationship.

"Commander, I don't know why you came to me today?" Gu Pinzhen was quite puzzled, you must know that he has been busy with his regiment in Sichuan these days to suppress mountain bandits and rebels, but he is tired enough. No, I just entered the city last night to repair, and I was called here.

"A good thing, a great thing." Li Hongxiang said neatly.

"Hehe, what's the good thing? What good thing can befall me? ”

"Look at your appearance, let me tell you, after careful consideration, the General Staff will be officially appointed, and you will be the commander of the Seventh Division. Hurry up and report to Kunming! ”

"Huh?" Hearing Li Hongxiang's words, Gu Pinzhen's mouth opened in surprise.

"Ahhhh I don't understand what's going on, and I'm talking to you! Li Hongxiang was obviously dissatisfied with Gu Pinzhen's wide open mouth that could stuff an egg.

"No, Commander, what's going on? Why do I sound a little confused? Gu Pinzhen, who came back to his senses, still clenched Li Hongxiang tightly, and he still wanted to pick out more news here.

"To put it simply, you are promoted, do you understand now?" has been friends for many years, how could Li Hongxiang not understand what this friend meant, but obviously he is not so easy to fool.

Just when Gu Pinzhen was thinking about how to say a few more words, the voice of the guard interrupted the question he was about to prepare.

"Report!"

"Come in, what's the matter?"

"Report to the division commander, Sichuan gentry Pu Dianjun and Luo Lun came to visit with people."

Hearing the news that Pu Dianjun, Luo Lun and others came to visit, Li Hongxiang's face swelled with a thick look of disgust, and the same was true of Gu Pinzhen standing beside him. What is the identity of these two people, Li Hongxiang has long figured out clearly, Pu Dianjun is the representative of the Sichuan constitutionalists, and Luo Lun is the bigwig-level figure behind the Sichuan Elders' Association.

Although he is bored with these people, Li Hongxiang still has to do enough to save face, after all, he now represents the existence of the Communist Party in Sichuan.

"Take them to the reception room and let the chief of staff receive them for a while, and I'll be there later." Li Hongxiang commanded the guards.

"Yes."

After seeing the guards walk out of the door, Li Hongxiang turned his head, and then said to Gu Pinzhen: "Xiao Zhai, I have already relayed the order of the General Staff to you. Don't delay me here, take the train to Kunming early, and the specific tasks will be arranged for you. ”

"Yes, Commander." Gu Pinzhen is colorful.

Looking at Gu Pinzhen's figure walking out, Li Hongxiang sighed deeply. Like most revolutionaries at that time, he had a considerable fondness for the Baolu Movement in Sichuan and the leading figures behind it, but it was only after staying here for more than half a month and coming into contact with various figures that he discovered that in fact, the Baolu Movement had already degenerated and had become a tool for certain figures to compete for power and profit.

Speaking of which, Li Hongxiang also had high expectations for the comrade army that launched the road protection movement in Sichuan. In line with the fact that they both belong to the revolutionary army and are for the sake of the country and the nation, Li Hongxiang still wanted to give preferential treatment to these comrades in the process of unifying the Sichuan government decree. It was only after staying in Chengdu for a few days and dealing with various forces that I understood what kind of goods the so-called Baolu Comrade Army was.

The Baolu Comrade Army, which was developed by the Sichuan Gang and the Elders' Association, is nothing more than a group of ** forces. Li Hongxiang, who understood this inside story, finally understood why the Qing army in the 17th town could ruthlessly attack other forces, but it was powerless against the comrade army. It's just that the seventeen towns are infiltrated by the gang forces led by the Elders' Association, and of course they can't be ruthless against the comrade army in the same lineage.

For the gang forces, like Xiao Mubai, Li Hongxiang has always hated it. It is precisely because of such people that the entire alliance has been made into a miasma. After exchanging views with Luo Peijin, commander of the Fourth Division, he reorganized Sichuan from beginning to end within half a month, disarming those who did not belong to the Communist Party, exterminating those who were exterminated, and driving them away.

In the reception room at this time, Pu Dianjun, Luo Lun and others were already waiting there. In fact, Luo Lun himself didn't want to come here, he had a strong dislike for Li Hongxiang and even the Communist Party behind him. Not for anything else, but because under the command of this person, the power of the Brotherhood in various places has been uprooted, and the more than 100,000 comrades under his command are also building roads on various construction sites. It's just that he couldn't stand Pu Dianjun's persuasion, so he finally came along.

When Li Hongxiang came to the reception room, Chief of Staff Yin Chengzhen had been with several people for more than a long time, and seeing Li Hongxiang's arrival, Yin Chengzhen finally breathed a sigh of relief, and it was no exaggeration to say that he really couldn't do this kind of work to usher in.

"A few gentlemen are polite, the military affairs of the court are here, and they are a little late, so I ask you for forgiveness."

"Division Commander Li is polite, Division Commander Li is the head of tens of thousands of troops, so he should be busy." Pu Dianjun represented a few people, and first opened his mouth to say haha.

"I wonder what you gentlemen are here for? Is it that our army is harassing the locality? Li Hongxiang didn't know why a few people came this time, so he simply pretended to be confused.

"Division Commander Li laughed, the strict discipline of your army is really rare, and there has never been a disturbance to the locality." Pu Dianjun's chubby face smiled like Maitreya Buddha.

"That's good, I'm still thinking, should I catch military discipline, lest it be bad to let this group of rabbit cubs cause something."

"Division Commander Li doesn't need to do this more, your army should be the teacher of benevolence and righteousness." It was a middle-aged man who spoke, and Li Hongxiang recognized this person as Luo Lun.

Li Hongxiang just nodded and stopped talking, and did not explore the meaning of this group of people. Anyway, he is not in a hurry, just consume it like this, and see who can consume whom.

"Master Li, we are here this time to discuss important matters." The first person who couldn't help it was Pu Dianjun, as the initiator of this meeting, he couldn't back down at this time.

"Oh? I don't know what Mr. Pu is talking about? Li Hongxiang sneered in his heart, and finally couldn't help it, and was about to show his fox tail.

"Now, it has been more than half a month since the recovery of Sichuan Province, but in addition to the garrison headquarters of Division Commander Li, there is no department in charge of government affairs, which has a serious impact on the lives of the people in our province."

"Well, what Mr. Pu said is very reasonable, and we will consider it and resolve this matter." Li Hongxiang nodded if it was okay.

Pu Dianjun is also a little stupid now, in his imagination, Li Hongxiang should say the line "Mr. Pu, what do you think", so that he can reasonably arrange himself and others, after all, presiding over government affairs and governing the place is not something that this group of Qiu Ba can do.

After the occupation of Sichuan by the revolutionary army, he and several leaders of the Baolu Comrades Association were released from house arrest and returned home. In the past half a month, the Communist Progressive Party has only set up a garrison headquarters in Chongqing and Chengdu, and there is no corresponding government affairs department.

That's it. In fact, he couldn't talk about it anymore, and Pu Dianjun, who was flushed by Li Hongxiang's words, had to take the lead in saying goodbye. It's just that when they left, several people looked at them with indignation. However, Li Hongxiang didn't care, in his words, this group of people really thought they were a character
