On May 15, Xia Jun issued an order to the two provisional divisions deployed in Pucheng to capture Zhejiang, and at the same time sent the rapid-fire artillery battalion of the artillery regiment to coordinate operations to deal with the nails encountered in the process of attacking.

At the same time, Xia Jun set up an operational command headquarters to direct this expansion campaign, and the operational command headquarters was equipped with telegraph and wireless telephones, and each battalion of the unit was equipped with a high-power radio station, so that the combat command could directly use the telephone to command the troops fighting on the front line.

On that day, cars roared on the road from Pucheng to Xianxia Pass, and the infantry of the two divisions drove out of Fujian through the Xianxia Pass tunnel under the transport of trucks.

On the other hand, Xianxia Pass is still controlled by the Qing army, but because of the excavation of the Xianxia Pass tunnel, it has lost its military role, and there are no foot merchants to take that ancient road anymore.

The large army here is marching, and an artillery company soon came behind, and six rapid-fire guns carried out a fierce shelling of Xianxia Pass, and the Qing generals on Xianxia Pass were frightened and fled on the spot, and the Qing soldiers below saw that the momentum was not right, and they also ran away, Xianxia Pass was quickly captured, but the combat command did not arrange troops to garrison here.

The 4th and 5th Provisional Divisions, one attacked Quzhou and Lishui, and the other entered the boundary of Jiangxi and attacked in the direction of Shangrao, Yingtan, and Poyang Lake.

The reason why he entered Jiangxi was mainly because Xia Jun wanted to control Poyang Lake, the passage into the Yangtze River, and he would have more than a month at most to grab land.

After waiting for other provinces to read, it will be troublesome for Xia Jun to fight again, after all, everyone is in the revolution, and grabbing land everywhere will be blamed by public opinion.

Xia Jun's direct demarcation of the territory is Fujian and Zhejiang provinces, as well as Shangrao, Yingtan, Jingdezhen, Jiujiang in Jiangxi, and Shanghai.

Needless to say, Zhejiang and Shanghai are naturally very well-developed areas of economy, while Shangrao, Yingtan, Jingdezhen, and Jiujiang are relatively flat, suitable for agricultural development, and can be used as an agricultural rear, and Poyang Lake is connected to the Yangtze River, which can provide Xia Jun with a passage into the Yangtze River channel.

Jingdezhen is also the most famous porcelain production area in China, how can Xia Jun not be greedy for such a large industry placed there.

The 4th and 5th Provisional Divisions advanced extremely quickly, with the 4th Division sending two regiments out to attack those county towns, while most of its troops went straight to Hangzhou.

The Fifth Division also divided two regiments to attack the city and seize the land, and the main force went straight to Jiujiang, and the main force entering Jiangxi was Jiujiang.

The main target of entering Zhejiang is Hangzhou, and Hangzhou will nominally occupy the whole of Zhejiang, and then it can calmly attack other counties.

There is also a new army in Zhejiang, which is the 21st town of the provisional army (stationed in Hangzhou, Zhejiang, the town was formed in a hurry, and the artillery did not reach the custom, Zhu Rui served in the army. Theoretically, it has jurisdiction over the 41st and 42nd Infantry Associations, that is, the 77th to 80th Infantry Standards; The 21st Artillery Unit, the 21st Cavalry Regiment, the 21st Engineering Team, the 21st Baggage Brigade)

Zhejiang and Jiangsu were the sites of the Restoration Society's activities, but the Restoration Society's failure to penetrate into the 21st Town was the main reason why Xia Jun was in a hurry to capture Hangzhou.

Once the people of the League revolt first, then Zhejiang is nominally the territory of the League, and when the time comes, the plan to expand northward can only be temporarily put on hold, so Xia Jun is eager to capture Hangzhou.

However, at this time, the southern provinces will not be able to read for the time being, because the southern provinces are still waiting.

The reason why the Xinhai Revolution was successful was because Yuan Shikai was secretly indulging, so that the Wuchang Revolutionary Army was not wiped out for a long time, so the southern provinces were emboldened, and if the Wuchang Uprising was quickly extinguished, then the dark rule of the Manchu Qing would continue. So Xia Jun predicts that he should have about a month to grab the land.

After the departure of the provisional 4th and 5th Divisions, Xia Jun always paid attention to the changes in the situation in Jian'an, and at the same time actively dispatched. Gendarmes, administrators, police officers are constantly being sent to the front.

The gendarmerie mainly supervises the discipline of the army in combat, after all, the fourth and fifth divisions are provisional, so Xia Jun sent a lot of gendarmes to supervise.

Every time the troops at the front captured a county seat, administrative personnel and police officers followed them within three days, and then took over the local administration, and all the property belonging to the government was confiscated from the captured county seats.

On the 16th, after Xia Jun got up in the morning, he hurriedly ate breakfast, and then ran to the combat headquarters, Liu Wenhong, who had been fighting for two days, hurriedly came up with the documents and said to Xia Jun: "Principal, the fourth division has arrived at the boundary of Jinhua, and it is expected to arrive in Hangzhou in two days, and the artillery company has also followed, and it will be able to launch an attack on Hangzhou in three days." ”

"Okay, let the combat troops minimize the accidental injury to the people when attacking the city." Xia Jun nodded.

"Yes." Liu Wenhong was about to make a call, but Xia Jun stopped him and said to him: "Wenhong, your body is important, you should go and rest first in a while!" ”

"Yes, Headmaster." Liu Wenhong replied that he hadn't slept for two days, and he was so excited that he couldn't sleep before, but now he is really sleepy.

At this time, the staff officer handed over a telegram, and Xia Jun took the telegram and read it.

This telegram was sent from Shanghai, and Xia Jun had sent a battalion to infiltrate Shanghai a few months earlier, and the number of this battalion was the Jian'an Reading Battalion, which was the first battalion headquarters unit to read the number.

The Jian'an Reading Camp sent a telegram to ask for the time of the uprising, and they were already ready and waiting for the incident.

"Correspondent."

"Yes."

"Send a telegram to the Jian'an Reading Battalion, and ask them to wait for the Fourth Division to attack Shanghai." Xia Jun ordered, and the correspondent immediately recorded the contents, and then sent the telegram.

It's okay for a battalion to take Shanghai, but with such a small number of people, how can they compete with others? Five hundred people are scattered into one county, and the density is very low.

There is also a Chen Qimei in Shanghai, this person is Chiang Kai-shek's leading brother, this person is a gang member in Shanghai, in history he is the overseer of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, Tao Chengzhang, who originally served as the overseer of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, was assassinated by him, and the younger brother sent to assassinate Tao Chengzhang was Chiang Kai-shek.

Therefore, the uprising in Shanghai should wait for the Fourth Division to hit Shanghai!

After a while, Chen Xuanyu also came to the combat headquarters, Xia Jun saw him coming, and directly handed over the command task to him to complete, while he went to the meeting.

The East China Provisional Political Axe has not yet been formed, and all departments must be established.
