Wang Tianpei naturally heard the meaning of Wang Qingyun's words, and immediately decided to resign and accompany Li Qianyu back to Anqing. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info It is obvious that the Shouxian Gang is suppressing the Anqing Gang again, and the reason why he is still entrusted with important tasks is because although he is the Anqing Gang, he is a native of Guizhou in other provinces, and his existence does not make Wang Qingyun feel too threatened.

Wang Tianpei was reluctant to participate in the factional struggle, compared to the military orders of the Jiangbei Army on the other side, his side fought among themselves first, and it was okay if this battle was not fought, so he resolutely resigned and left.

At dawn, the Jiangbei Army sent someone to deliver a message, in order to avoid casualties among the people of Tongcheng, the Jiangbei Army let go of the south of the city and let the people leave Tongcheng, Li Qianyu and Wang Tianpei took the opportunity to leave from the south of the city.

"Surrounded by three without one, this battle is difficult to fight." Wang Tianpei said with emotion, "I'm afraid that our army will be defeated soon." ”

Li Qianyu said: "Brother Value, what are your plans?" ”

"Go back to Guizhou." Wang Tianpei said lightly, "Don't hide your longevity like an old brother, Guizhou is peaceful and restored, and the overseer is Yang Xincheng, a native of Sichuan, but Zhang Bailin, the privy councillor of Guizhou Province, thinks that Guizhou's military is not limited to Guizhou people, so he wrote to me and asked me to go back and participate in the command of the Guizhou army." I had previously considered the revolutionary crisis in Anhui Province and refused in every way for a hundred years, but now I ...... Alas...... Brother Shouru, listen to me, why don't you go to Guizhou with me, continue the revolution against the Qing Dynasty, and continue to fight, how about it? ”

Li Qianyu shook his head and said: "I am a native of Anhui Province, and I will definitely give everything for the revolution in Anhui Province, and I will not hesitate to do anything." Brother Duty, I will also return to Anqing to assist Sun Dudu, I believe that the revolution will be victorious, and the Manchu Qing will be overthrown. ”

Wang Tianpei saw that he was resolute, so he could only send blessings, and then he took a boat down the river to Shanghi, and then took a boat to Guangzhou and then returned to Guizhou. In the process of taking the ship, Wang Tianpei found that China's north-south shipping was almost monopolized by Wang Yongan's company, many shipping companies were acquired and merged, and Wang Yongan also monopolized finance, so this battle could not be fought......

However, what Wang Tianpei didn't expect was that after returning to Guizhou, he was entrusted with an important task.

Wang Tianpei has some second monks who are confused, and don't understand why they attach so much importance to themselves, they have been in the north for so many years, and they have no connection with their hometown in Guizhou, except for the identity of a Guizhou person, there is no credit that can be taken, and even he and Yang Xincheng, the overseer of Guizhou, don't know each other at all.

Zhang Bailin told him that Wang Yongan, the envoy of the Jiangbei Protectorate, said to the world: "If you have Jiangbei Yi, it will be difficult for Wang Tianpei, and you would rather give up 100,000 troops than be worthy of the king." "Being able to make Wang Yongan, who is famous all over the world, feel so thirsty for talent, it can be seen that Wang Tianpei is important, if Yang Xincheng does not reuse Wang Tianpei, I am afraid that the entire gentry of Guizhou Province will not obey him.

Tongcheng, the Anhui army retreated and Tongcheng.

At dawn, the offensive of the Jiangbei Army, which had been tired all night, was finally suspended, and in the face of the city wall of Tongcheng County, in order to avoid casualties, Wang Yongan ordered the whole army to rest. At Feng Heng's suggestion, the Jiangbei Army decided to adopt the strategy of encircling three and missing one, and threatened to allow the people of Tongcheng to flee from the south of the city, and the Jiangbei Army did not kill the people, so the people of Tongcheng helped the old and the young to run to the south of the city and escaped from Tongcheng County.

At first, Wang Qingyun didn't care, he also felt sorry for the people, but less than two hours later, Wang Rui, the new commander of the Third Brigade of the Anhui Provincial Revolutionary Army, who was in charge of the South City Gate, came to report, saying that because the South Gate was wide open, many Anhui soldiers took off their military uniforms and fled in disguise as ordinary people, and he caught dozens of deserters, but deserters appeared in various units one after another, and it has been repeatedly banned and difficult to contain.

Wang Qingyun was furious, he realized the seriousness of the problem, and immediately ordered the city gate to be closed to prohibit the people from leaving the city, and strictly ordered the investigation and punishment of deserters in the army, and imprisoned the deserters in the dungeon to await execution. The subsequent ministries reported that there were still soldiers fleeing from various units, and Wang Qingyun had to pull out a few deserters and shoot them, which calmed the morale of the army.

However, Wang Qingyun ordered that the people of Tongcheng were strictly forbidden to leave the city, but the Anhui Provincial Revolutionary Army suddenly became the target of public criticism, and the people scolded the Anhui Army for being shameless, and it was just that the Jiangbei Army could not be defeated in the war, but it bullied the people. They scolded Wang Qingyun for being shameless, and he could only flee in the face of the enemy, not fight.

Wang Qingyun was also very depressed, and could only count on the arrival of reinforcements from Anqing.

At the same time, Wang Yongan was also sad after receiving the loss, more than 800 young men were killed overnight, watching the bodies of his brothers lying on the ground, covered with white cloth, Wang Yongan and the officers took off their hats and saluted. In the end, this is a national war, and in the final analysis, this is an internal war.

"Alas......" Wang Yongan sighed and said to Feng Heng: "Send someone into the city to contact and see if you can buy the locals, the loss of storming Tongcheng is too great, it is better to use silver to disintegrate the opponent." ”

Feng Heng was stunned for a moment and asked, "Use silver to disintegrate the opponent?" ”

Wang Yongan said: "I thought that I would go down to Tongcheng in a war, but I didn't expect that although the Anhui army had poor weapons and the army was uneven, its combat effectiveness was still there. In the future, if our Jiangbei Army wants to develop, it must recruit more Anhui people into the army. ”

Wang Yongan chose a man named Peng Yunzhe to act as his secret envoy in the army, infiltrated Tongcheng to buy local generals, and gave him the permission to pay 100,000 taels of silver.

Peng Yunzhe is a native of Wuhu in southern Anhui, belongs to the army Chinese officer, is not good at military operations, but is forced to experience interpersonal communication, and serves as a liaison officer in the Jiangbei Army. This time Wang Yongan gave him a task is a test, if Peng Yunzhe can complete it well, he will definitely be able to soar in the future. Peng Yunzhe secretly vowed that he must seize the opportunity to reverse his fate, and he disguised himself as a defeated soldier of the Anhui army and infiltrated the city.

Because Wang Qingyun closed the city gate and strictly forbade the people in the city to go out, he had become a public enemy of Tongcheng. Although Wang Qingyun's Anhui army is also a fellow villager in Anhui Province, this fellow villager is too ruthless to his own people. The Jiangbei Army still knows that the people were let go before the war, but your Anhui army is good, not only sticking to the city, but also not allowing the people to leave, it is simply not human.

Therefore, Peng Yunzhe entered Tongcheng and secretly contacted the local gentry, and immediately got the support of the Tongcheng gentry, who said that they had no intention of opposing the Qing Dynasty at all, and if General Wang attacked Tongcheng, they were willing to cooperate with the Jiangbei Army and have the power to eliminate the revolutionary army. For them, regardless of whether it was the Qing Dynasty or the revolutionary party, as long as it was not good for them, they were all opposed. Peng Yunzhe considered that there were still nearly 20,000 Anhui troops in the city, and the Anhui army was divided into many factions, so he considered how to divide them, and paid attention to inquiring about the preferences of each officer.
