Chapter 285: Sniping Wu Peifu
After Wu Peifu waved goodbye to Cao Kun, he immediately took the Beiyang Third Division, all the way by car, doing the train through Shandong, only to fight Jiangsu, Li Chun received the transfer information, he was taken aback, Wang Zhanyuan had a heavy army in his hands, it was the second division of the Beiyang Ace Division, when it was first established, it was selected from the elite of the green battalion, and the elite was selected from the elite, and it was in the forefront of the north-south war all the year round, and it was more war-hardened, and the combat effectiveness was greatly improved compared with other divisions instead of declining, if it weren't for Wang Zhanyuan's excessive greed, Even the food and salary of his cronies and subordinates were embezzled, so that Li Tiancai and others were just the commanders of a brigade, and the rebellion actually harmed the four provinces, and the number of divisions in his province could not be encircled and suppressed, and finally relied on Sun Chuanfang of the second division to exterminate it, which shows how strong the combat effectiveness of the second division is, and now Duan Qirui has taken off the hat of the Hubei overseer, but he has not usurped the command of his second division, and the entire Hubei has been operated by him for so many years, even if he does not have the hat of the overseer for a while, it will count, but Li Chun can't, The Sixth Division of Beiyang was taken away by Chang Zhenbang and given to Li Tingyu, and now the Thirteenth Division of Beiyang in his hand is Wang Qinghuai's subordinate, and he is not close to him, nor is he in the transfer, if he is asked to take over the Hubei overseer with the guard regiment, Wang Zhanyuan will kill him or even kill him, it is not a matter of minutes. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info so going to Wuhan here can be regarded as a lot of luck for Li Chun.
After Chang Zhenbang received the news, he immediately asked Li He, the guard of Yanping Town, to ask for leave and take the newly formed Fujian Third Division to land in the East China Sea in a naval transport boat; at this time, Wu Peifu's Beiyang Third Division had also arrived in Xuzhou, and when he was rushing to Huaiyin, Li He, with the cooperation of relevant departments, took advantage of the night to lead the Fujian Third Division to raid Wu Peifu's camp of the Beiyang Third Division.
Although the third division of the Beiyang Division was established at the beginning of its establishment, although it was not as good as the personnel quality of the second division, but for so many years by Cao Kun, Wu Peifu treated each other as a soldier, full of sharpness, arrogance, and toughness, and recently took Hunan from the hands of the southwest rebels. However, under his command, the Beiyang Third Division immediately counterattacked, and the Beiyang Third Division was really brave, and in less than half an hour, it repelled the sneak attack of the Fujian Third Division, and also took advantage of the situation to counterattack.
It is said that this Li He is also a character, the command is determined, calm and moderate, but unfortunately these Fujian soldiers are really not as strong as the third division, only a surprise attack of less than a moment to let the family fight back, Li He saw that there was nothing to do, he could only sigh, had to get on the horse and go, this retreat does not matter, the third division of Beiyang took advantage of the situation to fight back, the third division of Fujian suffered heavy casualties, seeing that the fall was imminent, the Haizhou town guard made Bai Baoshan's department appear in time, shouting to catch the thief, and rushed into the middle of the third division of Beiyang and the third division of Fujian, This only avoided the tragedy of the annihilation of the whole army soon after the establishment of the Third Division, and when Li He withdrew to the East China Sea, he counted the remnants of the rest of the horses in his hands, and it was less than half a stop of ten people and horses, after hearing the news, Li He cried bitterly, and immediately brought the army back to Fujian with the navy, and asked Bai Baoshan for a fast horse, and returned to Nanjing day and night.
Li He knelt on the ground in shame, and said with tears in his eyes: "My nephew is incompetent, and he can't force Wu Peifu back to attack and kill at night with the strength of a division, I'm really ashamed!" ”
"If you lose, you will lose, it's nothing, after all, the other party is Wu Peifu! This person is a few points more powerful than Chang Zhenbang in battle. It's nothing if you lose! After Li Chun heard the news, he sighed softly and said, "I didn't expect the Third Division to be so elite!" ”
Li He said: "For today's plan, we might as well let Wang Qinghuai send troops!" ”
"No way!" Li Chun said coldly: "At such a juncture, all the troops in Jiangsu are not allowed to move without authorization, let alone have a direct conflict with Wu Peifu!" ”
Li He was shocked: "What should happen now?" can't control Wu Peifu, wouldn't Jiangsu ask for it? ”
"Steady the point!" Li Chun glanced at him and said, "Jiangsu is lost?" Lost to whom? Is it a Westerner? Or Dongying people? Wu Peifu went to Jiangsu to take office, but it was only a transfer from the central government, and the central government did not place him as an uncle, isn't there still a Hubei overseer? ”
"This?" Li He sat on the ground blankly.
Li Chun said: "What is this, this! Let's follow Chang Zhenbang, but whoever looks at his uncle is according to Beiyang! Now he should be anxious Chang Zhenbang, lost Jiangsu, and his direct line can beat him from Zhejiang and Jiangxi, and he is now more anxious than us. What about us? You might as well sit back and relax and enjoy the show! ”
Li He sat on the ground, thinking about it, but how could the rich land of Jiangsu and Zhejiang be the place where there were many military disasters in Hubei, thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel a little distressed, Li Chun saw him like this, and couldn't help but regret it: "Li He, can't you bear it?" Li He nodded in amazement, Li Chun shook his head, and said: "So it seems that I was wrong to bring you to Jiangsu at the beginning, I didn't expect that this land of gold powder of the Six Dynasties would only take more than two years to corrupt your good young man." You've let me down so much! Li He hurriedly pleaded: "Uncle is wronged, the little nephew doesn't have the slightest heart for corruption!" Li Chun said disappointedly: "Silly boy, it's not an exaggeration to be corrupt with your status, and I won't blame you, what really disappoints me is that your ambition has sunk into this gentle township, and you can't bear to be in this land of gold dust in the Six Dynasties." You must know that corruption is not terrible, those overseers, patrol envoys, prime ministers, presidents, but the emperor and the queen mother Lafayette which one is not corrupt, that is, the Hongxian Emperor is more greedy than anyone else, not from a scholar to the respect of ten thousand times, this is also human nature. Uncle won't blame you, but if this ambition is corrupted, trapped in one place, and self-contained, then your future is worrying! Li He suddenly realized and felt ashamed.
Li Chun saw that he had a heart to wake up, and his tone gradually softened, and said, "Now you don't have to do anything, let's see how Chang Zhenbang does it!" ”
Li He said abruptly: "Yes, uncle! ”
"Hey! You kid! Li Chun said helplessly: "Remember, my uncle is a talent from Beiyang, and if you want to fly Huang Tengda, you can only be a person from Zhenbang." ”
……
After a night of fierce fighting, the third division of Beiyang showed its bravery, and there were as many as two regiments of prisoners alone, these people spoke Hokkien dialect, Wu Peifu listened, and already knew the situation in his heart, and all these people were imprisoned, handed over to the local government for strict care, integrated the army to count the number of people, and only after collecting the spoils of war did he say goodbye to Bai Baoshan, and then continued to run towards Nanjing.
Zhang Fulai, commander of the Sixth Brigade of the Third Division, said happily: "Angkor, it seems that the Jiangsu military and civilians still support us very much!" It's not like Chang Zhenbang's territory has been reduced to Chang Zhenbang as rumored by the outside world! Hehe. ”
Wu Peifu smiled: "Fulai, this can only be regarded as half of what you said right!" ”
"Half?" Zhang Fulai asked curiously.
Wu Peifu said: "The three provinces of Guangdong, Jiangxi and Fujian are under Chang Zhenbang's hands, every prefecture and county, every grass and tree are all beaten down by him, if we go to those three provinces, it will be difficult to move an inch and fight one step at a time." And these two provinces of Jiangsu and Zhejiang are my Beiyang blood rewards, and now it is Li Chun who guards, this Li Chun and Chang Zhenbang are irreversible, as long as he is in Jiangsu, this Jiangsu is like Chang Zhenbang, but if this Li Chun is transferred, this Jiangsu is ......"
"It's ours!" Zhang Fulai said with a smile.
"Nonsense!" Wu Peifu arched his hands upwards and said: "It's not yours, it's not mine, it's not Cao Sanye, and naturally it's not Premier Duan's, but it's our entire Beiyang." ”
Zhang Fulai said: "But Beiyang is now divided into the northeast, the southeast, the Anfu faction and our Cao Ye!" How troublesome it must be to mobilize! Aren't you afraid to make a mistake and everyone fights? ”
Wu Peifu laughed when he heard this, and said, "Fulai asked this question well, it was a good question!" It shows that you understand your brain, Premier Duan is a smart person, he wants us to be stable, so he will move within their respective ranges, and there will be countless peaces, if he wants us to fight, he will transfer each other in the two regions! ”
Zhang Fulai said: "Just like our direct line and the Gan line? But no one is stupid! The so-called cold lips and teeth, Zhang Zuolin will not sit idly by! ”
"Good boy, what a growth! I even know that my lips are dead and my teeth are cold! Wu Peifu laughed and said: "We were originally all President Feng's faction, but now that we have separated, some people in the northeast and southwest have not cleared up, thinking that if Feng Guozhang does not die, we will not make trouble, but this prime minister is as wise as a torch, and sees that Feng Guozhang can no longer control the below, and immediately let us exchange overseers with the southeast, even if the war is in chaos, it is just a nest fight, and I can't find his Duan Qirui's fault!" ”
"I'll do it!" Zhang Fulai said: "Duan Qirui is really clever when he does this!" ”
Wu Peifu said disapprerovingly: "He Duan Qirui is smart, and I, Wu Peifu, am not stupid!" He let us fight each other against infighting, and he was good at competing with the snipe and the clam for the fisherman's profit, but he didn't know that Zhang Zuolin seemed to be reckless, but he was actually a shrewd person, we were fighting with each other, and our strength was weak, and we couldn't contain Duan Qirui, so how many days would Zhang Zuolin live? Only obediently cooperated with us to contend with Premier Duan. ”
"Clever and clever! Sure enough! Zhang Fulai said happily: "After contacting Zhang Zuolin, Premier Duan will not dare to move us for a while, we can slowly take care of the southeast, revise the armament, and use the wealth of the five southeastern provinces to directly subordinate the Qing soldiers of the three provinces, what can not be done in the world?" Ha ha. ”
"Fulai has grown a lot!" Wu Peifu nodded with satisfaction and said: "But this can't be said nonsense, we are Beiyang elite loyal people who serve the country, how can we commit rebellion, wouldn't that be the same as rebellion in the southwest?" ”
"But......" Zhang Fulai was a little unsure.
Wu Peifu said: "Since ancient times, people who have been loyal to the country will be able to calm the chaos and settle the disaster, and stabilize the country." If it is difficult today, the overseers are divided, President Xu is weak, and Premier Duan is narrow-minded and selfish, we must learn from the Ming Chengzu and the Qing monarch when necessary! ”
While the two were talking, suddenly the soldier who was exploring the road in front of him hurriedly reported and said: "Lord Qiqi, thirty miles ahead is Xijia Town, and another thirty miles is Gaoyou County, there is nothing wrong along the way!" ”
Wu Peifu nodded and said, "Got it!" ”
Zhang Fulai said: "Entering this Gaoyou can be regarded as going to his mother's Yangzhou, people say that Yangzhou is good, there is a lot of money and food, and the woman is beautiful. ”
"Ma Yuren, the commander of the First Mixed Brigade and the guard of Huaiyang Town, is a fierce general, if he is obedient, we will not be able to move him, but my brother will not let you suffer, I must find a fat place to settle our brothers in that place!"
"That's a good feeling! Little brother, thank you Angkor here, hehe. Zhang Fulai said very happily.
As he spoke, he marched to the town of Xiejia, Wu Peifu glanced around the scenery around the town, and lamented: "Fulai, do you know that there has been a big man here?" ”
Zhang Fulai thought for a while and said: "Who doesn't know, Gaoyou is Wu Sangui in addition to salted duck eggs!" ”
Wu Peifu sighed: "This Wu Sangui is also a generation of heroes, but unfortunately the luck is not good, and the big thing does not work, but it will be infamous through the ages!" So in any case, you can't get too close to those foreign devils, otherwise twenty years later, the Wu family will have a character who has been infamous for the ages! ”
Zhang Fulai scratched his head and said: "Brother Wu, in this troubled world, how can you not deal with foreign devils, Premier Duan, Sun Monkey These two guys have the shadow of Dongying people behind them, Tang Jiyao and others in the southwest, Chang Zhenbang in the southeast also has the support of Britain and France, and Zhang Zuolin in the northeast has the support of Dongying people, in the face of such a form, don't you also persuade Cao Sanye to choose Britain and the United States?" ”
Wu Peifu said: "When you are proud, you don't lose your country, and you don't sell your rights." When you are frustrated, you don't go abroad or go to the concession. That's all I can do. ”
Zhang Fulai said: "Since ancient times, King Cheng has been defeated, and this Wu Sangui has failed, so he has been scolded, but if he wins, it will be Zhou Taizu." Lao Tzu thinks this is too fucking reasonable, Brother Wu, when we are lost, others call us Qiu Babing ruffian, and when we are proud, we call us warlord bastards. Founder, what we do is wrong, we might as well do it happily according to our minds. ”
Wu Peifu looked up to the sky and shouted: "The people's hearts are unpredictable, the people's hearts are mixed, greedy for small profits and die of righteousness, just like Premier Duan, he does not smoke, drink, prostitutes, gambles, is not greedy, does not occupy, can be called a perfect person, and since ancient times, the unification of the world, no matter the monarch and the minister is a great achievement, but our Prime Minister Duan has been scolded by the world for his warlord habits, devoted to power and art, superstitious force, when did this reunification become a sin, I really don't understand, I don't understand!" ”
The howling sounded, and the grievances in Wu Peifu's heart gradually dissipated, and he only felt that the future was a little sad and helpless, but he was also much happier.
