As the nephew of Li Hongzhang, a famous minister in the late Qing Dynasty, Li Jingxi can be said to have always been smooth sailing in officialdom. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 In the following years, Li Jingxi entered the officialdom in the fifth year of Guangxu, and in the following years, he served as the Yongning Province of Sichuan, and later served as the Hunan Salt and Grain Road, the Inspectorate, the Political Envoy of Fujian, the Political Envoy of Yunnan, the Governor of Guangxi, the Governor of Yunnan, and later the Prime Minister of Anhui Railway and Mining. It was not until February 1909 that he was promoted to the post of governor of Yunnan and Guizhou, and did not arrive in Kunming until September to officially take office.

However, he, like most of the people of insight in this era, belongs to the same contradiction. Although on the one hand, they have been conscientious in maintaining the rule of the Qing court, but they have long seen the end of the Qing Dynasty very clearly. So they're confused, they're hesitant. coincides with this kind of historical change that has not been seen in a thousand years, and it can be said that Li Jingxi and them are also a kind of sadness of the times.

After Li Jingxi took office, he only did a few things, that is, the 19th Town's Suiying School was merged into the Jiangwutang, Luo Peijin was transferred to the general office of the Army Primary School, Li Gengen was appointed as the general office of the Jiangwutang, and Shen Wangdu was appointed as the superintendent of the Jiangwutang. Then he stayed at the gate of the Governor's Palace. Despite this, for many officials in Yunnan officialdom, they did not dare to be sloppy in the slightest. Maybe one day, the three fires of the new governor will burn on his head.

But Xiao Mubai didn't seem to care about all this, as if all this had nothing to do with him, what should he do every day. Li Jingxi has also met him a few times, and he looks like a very kind old man, and he is also very easy to talk.

For more than half a year, Xiao Mubai has already sorted out the 38th Association, although he doesn't dare to say that the current 38th Association only has Xiao Mubai's voice, but for those disobedient officers, Xiao Mubai is either transferred to idle, or he is emptying his authority, and some have the means to repair them. With the continuation of many means, those officers either chose to transfer or clamp their tails and become people. In this way, the officers and soldiers of the 38th Association gradually recognized the fact that Xiao Mubai was the boss.

Maybe Xiao Mubai didn't realize that history had changed a little because of himself. Originally, in time and space, the Nineteen Towns were stationed near Kunming and the Thirty-Seven Association. And in this time and space, because of Xiao Mubai, it became Xiao Mubai's thirty-eight associations.

Among them: the 75th standard is in the north school field, the 76th standard and the 19th standard of the artillery team are in Wujiaba, the 19th standard of the horse team and the engineering battalion are in Qianhaizi, the baggage battalion is in the Guihua Temple, and the machine gun battalion is at the south end of the west corridor of Taihe Street. Gendarmerie on Longjing Street. and a number of patrol teams.

On this day, Xiao Mubai was observing the training of soldiers at the station in Wujiaba, but heard the guards report that the governor Li Jingxi had come with Cui Xiangkui, the commander of the 19th town, and Jin Yunpeng, the general counselor. When he walked to the gate of the barracks and saw hundreds of officers behind the three of them, Xiao Mubai already understood what was going on.

To say that the composition of the officers in these nineteen towns is really quite complicated. Earlier, when Chen Eun was the commander of the Yunnan Army, he brought many Sichuan people from Sichuan to serve as officers at all levels. When Cui Xiangkui was in charge of the 19th town of the army, he brought more than 100 officers from the Beiyang Department. This time, Li Jingxi was appointed as the governor of Yunnan and Guizhou, and Jin Yunpeng was appointed as the governor of the training office, and many Beiyang officers were brought in. It can be said that the entire nineteen towns are now divided into the Yunnan system, the Sichuan system, and the officers of the three Beiyang lines, among which the Beiyang system is the largest. The officers of the Yunnan system have all been headed by Xiao Mubai, and since Chen Eun left, the Sichuan department has also begun to be headed by Xiao Mubai. This is also the fundamental reason why Cui Xiangkui has to give Xiao Mubai three points and not offend easily, after all, Xiao Mubai's power in the Nineteen Towns is really not small.

As for the revolutionary party forces that belong to the League, there is nothing to do with them in the 38th Association anyway, and even if there are any, they have already been sorted out. As for the Thirty-Seven Association, Xiao Mubai didn't know, after all, it was not his own territory.

Obviously, this time the three of them came to the 38th Co-Assassin officer. Just seeing Cui Xiangkui's gloomy face and unhappy look, Xiao Mubai was puzzled, and couldn't help but secretly guess, is Cui Xiangkui dissatisfied with Beiyang's mixed sand?

Xiao Mubai guessed right, Cui Xiangkui was indeed very unhappy, although they all belonged to the Beiyang family, but they shared their own rights, so he couldn't be happy. He served as the commander of a town in Yunnan, and he held military power, so he could be said to be the general existence of the emperor of the soil. This time, the War Department sent Jin Yunpeng to serve as the senator of the Nineteenth Town, bringing most of the officers from Beiyang to come, wasn't it because he was afraid that his rights would be too great, and he would share his own rights. Jin Yunpeng doesn't know what kind of goods he has, but he doesn't rely on filming Duan Qirui's sycophants. The above sent this kind of person, but I didn't expect that the governor Li Jingxi actually agreed. I still plan to promote a few of my own people, but now it's okay, the words have been released, but they can't be fulfilled. At this time, Cui Xiangkui even hated Li Jingxi.

"Zicheng is really a talented person in the country, and when he studied in Germany, he still learned something." Seeing the groups of soldiers passing by, Li Jingxi praised Fusu.

"The Governor has won the award, and the officials are ashamed."

"Hehe, Zicheng doesn't have to be so humble, your ability is obvious to all. Before the governor took office, he had not yet arrived in Yunnan, but Zicheng's name had already spread like thunder. Li Jingxi did not deceive Xiao Mubai when he said this, since he took office as the governor of Yunnan and Guizhou in February and arrived in Kunming in September, this half a year is enough for him to clearly understand Xiao Mubai, who is famous in Yunnan.

"Hehe, I don't know if the adults are here this time?" Xiao Mubai laughed dryly twice, and asked knowingly.

"This time, the Ministry of War appointed Lord Jin Yunpeng as the general staff of our 19th Town, and brought hundreds of officers to enrich the grassroots officer force of the 19th Town. The Governor has come to assign these officers to your nineteen towns. Li Jingxi said solemnly

No matter what Li Jingxi said, his tongue was brilliant, but he couldn't change the fact that the imperial court mixed sand with the nineteen towns. Although he was unwilling, Xiao Mubai had no choice but to accept it.

"Please rest assured, Your Excellency, the lower officials will be properly settled."

"That's very good." Hearing Xiao Mubai's assurance, Li Jingxi nodded with satisfaction.

During the whole process, there were two people who never said a word, one was Cui Xiangkui with a gloomy face, and the other was Jin Yunpeng, who smiled like Maitreya Buddha.

After sending Li Jingxi away, Xiao Mubai brought these officers from Beiyang to the Daxiao Field. Walking on the way to the school, although Xiao Mubai did not have any expression on his face, what he thought in his heart was that he must give these people a dismount later, otherwise he might not know how to make trouble in the future!

With the sound of the horn of the emergency assembly post, the officers and men of the 76th standard were all assembled in a few minutes. Seeing this scene, the Beiyang officers who came with him were shocked. But the shock was followed by excitement. After all, they are all young officers, although they are from Beiyang, but the political concept in their minds is not so strong, as a soldier, there is still that blood in the chest, and they are very happy to be able to serve in such a strong army.

But soon, Xiao Mubai poured a basin of cold water on them, but they didn't realize it at all at this time.

"Report to the co-ordinator, the seventy-six standards have been assembled, please speak. Former officer Zhang Shengtao. ”

"Brothers, there is nothing else to do today, but we have a new brother joining us, and we need to get to know each other. Now, tell them whose soldiers you are, and whose voice you listen. ”

"We are Lord Xiao's soldiers, and we listen to Lord Xiao."

For a time, the shouts on the school field shook the sky. Let the faces of the officers from Beiyang standing on the side change greatly, isn't it obvious to show them again? What does this standard lord mean?

"Very well, brethren. In the days to come, we will help these new brothers a lot, so that they can integrate into our 38th Association as soon as possible. Did you hear it all? ”

"Hear clearly, hear clearly."

"Supervisor Zhang Shengtao, you take these new brothers to make arrangements."

Xiao Mubai was very satisfied with this effect. He just wants to tell these new officers, no matter where you come from or what your identity is, this is the 38th Association, my territory, you have to coil it for me, you have to coil it for me, and if it is a tiger, you have to lie down for me. Don't have anything to do with me.
