Chapter 353: Wang Yongan led his troops to the south

Yuan Shikai, the premier of the cabinet, never dreamed that the revolutionary party would develop so rapidly, and a few days ago all the Yangtze River Naval Division threw itself into the southern revolutionary government, and a few days later Anhui Province, which is located in an important area at the junction of the north and the south, was also recovered.

"Occupy Wuchang and teach the revolutionary party a lesson. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info" Yuan Shikai immediately ordered Feng Guozhang, the grandfather of the famous cross talk actor Feng Gong in later generations, and Feng Guozhang then led the second and third towns of the Beiyang Army to storm Wuchang. However, the morale of Wuchang had been restored in this matter, and Governor Li Yuanhong received strong support from the National Revolutionary Party, especially after Sun Yat-sen returned to China, and the revolutionary parties of other forces put aside their old suspicions and unanimously opposed the Manchu government, and called on everyone to support Wuchang and support Wuchang.

Yuan Shikai's conceit and complacency eventually buried the possibility of the Beiyang system dominating the whole of China, resulting in the status quo that the Beiyang system could only have the north, but even if the current power of the Beiyang system was maintained in the north, their territory was rapidly shrinking, because Anhui Province was lost.

"Give Wang Yongan an an order, let him quickly pacify Anhui, and never let the Sun thief force cross the Yangtze River." Yuan Shikai ordered his subordinates.

After receiving Yuan Shikai's telegram, Wang Yongan laughed wildly, and then ordered the garrison brigade to garrison Yangzhou, and the third, fourth, and fifth brigades of the newly formed Jiangbei Army set off to Anqing, and converged with the new Sixth Brigade of the Jiangbei Army stationed in Fengyang Prefecture to exterminate the Anhui Provincial Revolutionary Army.

The mighty departure of the army naturally attracted the attention of the Southern Revolutionary Party, and at that time Sun Yat-sen had already arrived at the city of Nanjing and was organizing the army to march to Nanjing. Considering the name of the Jiangbei Army, Sun Yat-sen prevented everyone from putting forward a proposal to support the Anhui Provincial Revolutionary Party, and issued a request: "Let the comrades of Anhui Province delay the Jiangbei Army, and when Nanjing is recovered, we will support the comrades of Anhui Province later." To put it bluntly, it is to let the Anhui Provincial Revolutionary Party play the role of cannon fodder, and exchange northern and central Anhui for Nanjing, the most important city in the south of the Yangtze River.

Of course, for the members of the League, central and northern Anhui was just a poor and remote country, but if Nanjing was occupied, the revolutionary government would have a real capital, and Sun Yat-sen and others would have the ability to confront the north.

At this time, the people of Anhui Province did not know that the revolutionary party under the city of Nanjing had abandoned them, and they were still actively discussing who would be the governor of Anhui Province.

On the second day after Zhu Jiabao sent a telegram announcing the liberation of Anhui Province, he Zhu Jiabao convened a meeting of representatives of various forces in the Yamen of the former governor, and all forces participated in the competition to elect the governor of Anhui Province.

Although Zhu Jiabao has no army, but he is still in the heart of the gentry of Anqing Mansion is still very important, the gentry of Anqing Mansion are thinking in their hearts that the imperial court will definitely send troops back, if Zhu Jiabao is the governor, he can lead them to surrender to the Manchu Qing Dynasty immediately, at this moment the court will not be guilty of the past, so they have supported Zhu Jiabao as the governor of Anhui Province.

The revolutionaries of Anhui Province looked at each other, and it seemed that there were no suitable candidates for the election, and it was best for Wang Qingyun of Shou County to send someone to Anqing in advance to propose that Wang Qingyun's mentor Sun Yuyun serve as the governor of Anhui Province. On the one hand, Sun Yuyun was the leader of Wang Qingyun's participation in the League, and on the other hand, Sun Yuyun had very deep seniority in the League, and was imprisoned when he was arrested for participating in the Pingliuli Uprising, and was not released from the cell by the revolutionary party until a few days ago.

Moreover, Wang Qingyun also said that if his mentor Sun Yuyun could not serve as the governor of Anhui Province, Wang Qingyun would withdraw his troops immediately. Obviously, the revolutionaries were not satisfied with each other, and they had no choice but to choose Sun Yuyun -- after all, Sun Yuyun's hardships were also there, and anyone who refused to accept them could go to prison for five years -- so the revolutionaries actively supported Sun Yuyun as the governor of Anhui Province.

Although the main participants in this meeting were the local gentry and revolutionaries, it was obvious that the opinions of the other group could not be ignored, and the representative of the White Turban Army was Lao Deruo, one of the eight King Kongs under Gao Dazhuang, and Lao Deruo immediately said that the governor of Anhui Province must be held by Gao Dazhuang, otherwise the meeting would go on. This is a little bit of a bandit and hooligan habit, what is called going on all the time, and I don't take the meeting seriously.

The revolutionaries immediately came up with a rebuttal condition, Gao Dazhuang is a native of Henan Province, how can he be the governor of Anhui Province, this is not in line with the rules.

Lao Deruo immediately gave an example, Chen Qimei, the overseer of Shanghi, was a native of Zhejiang Province, and Yang Xincheng, a native of Sichuan Province, became the overseer of Guizhou, so how could the revolutionary army become the self-reserved land of the provinces, and how could it refuse to be the governor of the capital because of the place of birth, the revolution was for the Han people in the world, not for anyone's own selfishness.

If Lauder was able to speak eloquently, the revolutionaries would have nothing to say, and the meeting would have been fruitless for a day.

The next day, the meeting continued, everyone was still arguing into a mess, no one obeyed the other, and at this time Gao Dazhuang felt that he was in some danger, so he sent his subordinates Li Ming and He Huan to lead 5,000 troops to secretly cross the Yangtze River to Jiangbei, enter southern Anhui, occupy Chizhou, a major land in southern Anhui, and immediately march to Wuhu after occupying Chizhou.

No one thought that the bandit Gao Dazhuang would actually come to steal the dragon and turn the phoenix, ostensibly competing with the revolutionary party for the governor of Anhui Province, but in fact, he stretched out his hand to southern Anhui and wanted to retreat to become the king of southern Anhui this time.

In this way, within a day, Chizhou was occupied by the White Turban Army.

At the same time, Wang Qingyun's army finally arrived at Anqing Mansion and formed a siege with the Anhui Provincial Revolutionary Army and the Jiangxi Army against the tall and strong White Turban Army.

The tall and strong didn't know it, and he was still bargaining, but he was suddenly attacked by three parties.

After the bandit-born White Turban Army was attacked by a sneak attack, it immediately collapsed, and the tall and strong 10,000 army immediately collapsed, and he himself quietly crossed the Yangtze River with his subordinates and a part of the army to reach southern Anhui, and arrived in Chizhou under the response of Li Ming, and successively received a lot of subordinates, and at the same time took the opportunity to eradicate the officers placed by Wang Yongan in his army, and the White Turban Army completely became a tall and strong army. In this battle, the tall and strong soldiers were defeated, and four of the Eight King Kongs died, but the White Turban Army completely became his private army, and occupied southern Anhui, and I don't know if it was lucky or unfortunate for the tall and strong.

On the other hand, in the re-election held in Anqing Prefecture, Sun Yuyun, who was supported by Wang Qingyunhuai's revolutionary army, was officially elected as the governor of Anhui Province.

Before the revolutionary government of Anhui Province was happy, they suddenly learned that Wang Yongan and Wang Zhuge personally led four brigades of more than 50,000 Jiangbei troops to kill them, and everyone immediately discussed countermeasures and prepared to meet the Jiangbei army, a "wild beast".
