Chapter 236: Surprise Attack on Shaoguan
With Tang Baichuan's participation, Chang Zhenbang finally made up his mind to take advantage of the fire to rob and seize Guangdong, and the rebel protector army formed by the first division of Jiangxi, the second division of Jiangxi, and the sixth division of Beiyang officially gathered in southern Jiangxi, but it was claimed to be to crusade against the green forest rebels led by Wang Dadazi, the king of southern Gansu, because according to reliable sources, the revolutionary party in Jiangxi wanted to unite with the bandit leaders in Gannan to launch a rebellion again, and promised to capture a drop, and then distribute the girl's money and silk in one place equally.
As soon as this news was concerned, everyone in the cities and villages everywhere was in danger, and the able-bodied men joined the army one after another, and the wealthy businessmen everywhere took their cattle and pulled sheep to reward the army.
The rebellious army is not to be outdone, in addition to stepping up training every day, it also really participates in the ranks of exterminating bandits and bandits in various places, of course, to deal with these bandits and bandits, they are not the main force, the main force is those spy personnel under Chang Zhenyan, among them, the three religions and nine streams are all-encompassing, and the information is accessible in all directions, and the elite cadres selected from it have repeatedly made meritorious contributions in this action to encircle and suppress the bandits, especially to uproot the power of Wang Dadazi, who is entrenched in Wanyang Mountain, it is even more indispensable, but three hundred and sixty lines, The lack of any line makes this world imperfect, so the bandit industry hides in the mountains and mountains, and no matter how you kill it in the abyss of the dense forest, there will be fish that slip through the net, and they will kill a lock of leeks one after another and grow a lock of leeks. So Chang Zhenbang didn't plan to really kill these people, but just killed those guys who were not easy to control, and raised obedient good children like Xiao Shanmao.
The anti-bandit campaign is vigorous, in full swing, Chang Zhenbang's income is also an increase of 100,000 200,000, just after February, less than half of March, Chang Zhenbang's account has more than 1 million more than 1 million more than 1 million in the current ocean, not counting all kinds of antiques, silk and other things, as for young girls, Chang Zhenbang has also gained a lot, but these people have been handed over to Mr. Zhao as the bandits' family members, and have subsidized everything Mr. Zhao has done for the Jiujiang Army. Mr. Zhao reciprocated and found many girls for Chang Zhenbang's officers to hold a large-scale wedding in Nanchang City, on this wedding, Tang Baichuan and Liu San also officially appeared in front of everyone, in the face of the dream wedding, Liu San couldn't help but be grateful, she thought that there would never be such a beautiful day in this life, who knew that she would meet again in her lifetime, and her heart was full of gratitude to Chang Zhenbang.
The three million rounds of ammunition have been taken out, and counting the three million rounds of ammunition that Emperor Yuan transported for the second time, it is enough to support Chang Zhenbang to launch a medium-sized battle.
The long-awaited telegram finally arrived.
On March 15, Lu issued a telegram in Liuzhou to discuss Yuan Yuan's text, and Lu Rongting and Liang Qichao to protect the country and reverse Yuan's telegram; Chen Bingkun issued a telegram in Nanning entitled "Guangxi Protector of the Country and the Military and Civilians Elect Lu Rongting as the Governor". Lu announced that he was the commander of the Liangguang Protectorate Army, and Liang Qichao was the staff officer of the capital, and at the same time marched eastward to defeat Long Jiguang.
After Chang Zhenbang got the news, he announced that he would let the army play the banner of protecting the country and fighting against the rebels, with the Beiyang Sixth Division as the vanguard army, the Jiangxi Second Division as the left wing army, and the Jiangxi First Division as the right wing army, rushing to Shaoguan with lightning speed.
Guangdong is an important place for Chinese and foreign property traffic, and it is a place where soldiers must fight, the town guards are extremely numerous, Jiangxi, Anhui, and Central China are only three or four, but he is as many as six or seven, the first one is Shaoguan at the junction of Jiangxi and Guangdong, and the town guard here is known as the town guard of South Shaolian, and also becomes the town guard of northern Guangdong. The town guard here is the famous Zhu Fuquan.
Soon, Zhu Fuquan's information was sent to Chang Zhenbang.
Zhu Fuquan, who joined the army at the age of seventeen, made meritorious contributions in the Battle of Mawei at a young age, and participated in countless battles in his life, and his best skill was to suppress bandits. In the era of Lafayette in the past, this long border between Guangdong and Jiangxi was a hotbed for the spread of bandits, and various banners emerged in endlessly, there were those who opposed the Qing Dynasty and restored the Ming Dynasty, and those who opposed the people and restored the Qing Dynasty, and now the bandits have raised the banner of overthrowing Yuan Huguo and supporting Yuan Hongxian, of course, no matter which banner they played, the final scourge was still the common people, and even these people recently discounted the banner of Yuan Huguo and robbed once, and after a few days they robbed you again under the banner of supporting Yuan Hongxian, anyway, what do you do is wrong, Only by getting used to this process can you live well.
However, unfortunately Zhu Fuquan is the nemesis of these people, every year on the border of Jiangxi and Guangdong to exterminate thousands of bandits, except for a few bandits escorted to Guangzhou to the appearance, the bandits are almost all beheaded by him in a row, one of the most prestigious anti-bandit action is Zhu Fuquan in Jiangxi Nan'an Wudong Shengsheng captured the bandit leader Li Shikui and others, rescued the captive people men and women Dozens of people Yes, the border bandits subsided for a long time, until Sun Monkey was driven away by Emperor Yuan, the bandits on the border of Guangdong and Jiangxi were caught and raped again, seems to be telling these people that if you support Yuan Shikai, there will be banditry, and if you listen to Mr. Sun, there will be no banditry. This is not to say that Mr. Sun has done any shady collusion with these bandits, it's just that Mr. Sun is their boss, it's that simple. So this Zhu Fuquan has gradually become a thorn in the eyes of the revolutionaries, a thorn in the flesh, but Zhu Fuquan doesn't care, he feels that being an official is not the master of the people, it is better to be inappropriate, Zhu Fuquan has been an official in Shaozhou for more than ten years, and the people of Shaozhou have been cleaning up bandits and benefiting the people of Shaozhou, and the people of Shaozhou are grateful to him and set up a longevity record card for him in Jiuchengtai.
Chang Zhenbang said: "Zhu Fuquan is a good official, I really can't bear to hurt him like this kind of good official." ”
Li Tingyu said: "This person is the best envoy of Northern Guangdong!" I hope that all of you will have in his name. ”
Tang Baichuan said: "Zhilan is in charge, and he has to be removed." This person has a great reputation, and if he doesn't handle it well, it will be a big disaster. ”
Li Tingyu said: "If you want to rule Guangdong, you must use famous people here. ”
Chang Zhenbang nodded and said: "What the two elder brothers said makes sense, the younger brother thinks that it is better to take this place first!" ”
With an order, the pace of the rebel army accelerated again, and soon crossed Shixing, and when they encountered villagers along the way, they were all killed, and they must maintain the tightness of the army's actions, and when they arrived at the city of Shaoguan, it was almost dusk. Taking advantage of the unpreparedness of the defenders, the rebel protector army rushed into the city of Shaoguan with lightning speed, and quickly captured all the key points of Shaoguan City, and even turned the guns on the tower to aim at the city.
After receiving the news, Zhu Fuquan was taken aback, and immediately came to the military camp in the south of the city with his very cronies, hoping to mobilize the defenders of the town in northern Guangdong to fight against it, but Chang Zhenbang and others had already calculated everything, and Yanzi's people had already entered Shaoyang, and lurked outside Shaoguan, and before Zhu Fuquan entered the military camp in the city, he was pressed to the ground by the stumbling horse of Yanzi and others, and immediately two Chinese characters rushed over and tied him up.
Don't look at Zhu Fuquan's unsightly appearance, people who don't know really think that he is the old farmer who picks vegetables and sells them for money? However, there are countless people who know him in Shaoguan City, as soon as he saw him being caught, he was immediately angry, and he picked up his sleeves and beat these two men violently, Zhu Fuquan took the opportunity to let people untie the rope, and everyone surrounded him and persuaded him: "Lord Guard, the rebel army has entered the city, you better hide!" Zhu Fuquan said with a smile: "Your kindness is understood, but it is the duty of the official to defend the land and the people, these rioters are not like good people, how can I leave you for my own selfishness and leave you to die?" As he spoke, he mounted his horse and continued to gallop towards the military camp north of the city. As soon as I saw the entrance of the barracks, I saw a big child named Hanako standing in front of the horse with open hands.
Zhu Quanfu hurriedly reined in the horse, took out a few pieces of ocean from his arms, threw it over, and said, "Child, you can take this money to eat a full meal, don't block my future." ”
The eldest child glanced at the ocean a few times, but didn't pick it up, just stopped in front of Zhu Quanfu and said, "Lord Zhu, the new town guard has entered the barracks, you can leave quickly, you won't be able to leave if you go any longer." ”
Zhu Fuquan was shocked and said, "Child, take your time, what's going on?" ”
The boy said, "I don't know, but I know that the news of the arrival of the new town guard from the barracks has been issued, and a proclamation has been issued saying that whoever captures you will be rewarded with 500 oceans." If you throw yourself into the net, you might as well let the swallows give you a ride. ”
Zhu Fuquan smiled and said, "Okay, let me be loyal to the emperor and let you earn these five hundred oceans." He beckoned and handed the reins to the beggar.
The beggar asked curiously, "My lord, can I have a question for you?" ”
Zhu Fuquan touched his head kindly and said, "Child, I know what you want to ask." People, to do something and not to do something, when I was so old to you, I was just a child of a poor family, and I didn't know where the next meal was, and then I joined the army, and I was diligent, and the adults liked me and appreciated me, which made me step by step to the position of the town guard, and those adults treated me as a person, let me guard one side, and handed over the people of this side to my hands, what a kindness this is, even if I am not an official, I must keep the safety of the people of Shaoguan, so I don't go for myself, Instead, I hope that the new town guard will not hurt the people, and it is not easy for the people. ”
The beggar said, "My lord, aren't you afraid of death?" ”
Zhu Fuquan pointed to the distance and said, "Do you know what kind of place it is?" ”
The beggar shook his head and said, "I don't know." ”
Zhu Fuquan said: "That is Qujiang County, there is a high platform in his northern city, called Jiuchengtai, the legend is where Shun played music when he was touring the south, and the people of Shaoguan set up a longevity record card for me there. ”
Outside the barracks, the new guard of northern Guangdong, Hua Zhongtian, stood outside the barracks in high spirits, waiting for Zhu Fuquan's arrival.
When the beggar led the horse and slowly came to the front of the Shaoguan barracks, the officers and soldiers at the gate of the barracks nervously and fearfully surrounded them with guns. Zhu Fuquan slowly walked in front of Hua Zhongtian and said, "I am Zhu Fuquan." You are going to arrest me, please don't harm the people and hurt the innocent! ”
When this old man came to him, he was a little stunned and afraid, he had read the other party's resume no less than three or four times, but the old man in front of him could not make him believe that the other party was in his forties anyway. After being stunned for a long time, he waved his hand and said, "Please join the army to speak, my family has been waiting for a long time." ”
The beggar led the horse and stopped outside the barracks, and Zhu Fuquan pointed at him and said, "If the old man dies, let this child be rewarded!" ”
Huazhong Tiandao: "I will!" ”
The beggar looked at Zhu Fuquan's back, couldn't help but shake his head, and said to himself: "Engong, this is a good official, Yanzi hopes you don't hurt him." ”
