"Is it tolerable or unbearable!" Gao Chu's hands trembled.

"You did a good job, I will ask the national political axe to give you credit!" Chai Dongliang patted a young officer on the shoulder and said with relief.

"As a member of the Jianghuai Army, the Jedi will not do anything to endanger the Jianghuai Army, not to mention that Chen Qimei is my classmate, he is my father, and I will not rebel with him!" The young officer's voice was quite loud, and the dust on the beams of the house fell in a flutter.

Chai Dongliang said with a smile: "Good job, worthy of being the brigade commander of our Jianghuai Army!" You go back to the army first, step up your training, and the opportunity to make contributions is right in front of you! ”

The young officer's eyes lit up, and he stood up with a smile and saluted: "Yes!" ”

With that, he walked out of the room.

Chai Dongliang's smile suddenly stopped, his face dripped, and he gritted his teeth and said: "While begging me to send troops, dig into my corner!" It's too unfair! ”

The young officer just now is called Lin Hu, a native of Luchuan, Guangxi, born in the thirteenth year of Guangxu in the Qing Dynasty, and is now just twenty-six years old. In 1901, he entered the Armed Forces Academy at the age of 14 and graduated two years later, and before the age of 17, he served as a midshipman in the second battalion of Yue Fengwu, commander of the former army of the Jiangxi Standing Army. Later, he joined Guangxi as the supervisor of the fourth battalion of the pro-army, and then served as the supervisor of the new army. After returning to China, Lin Hu successively served as a pipe band and assistant commander, and after the Xinhai Revolution, he served as the brigade commander of the first brigade of the first division of the Jiangxi army. After Chai Dongliang conquered Jiangxi, he reorganized the Jiangxi Army, mixed the troops of Anhui and the troops of Jiangxi, and Lin Hu served as the brigade commander of the First Brigade of the Third Division of the Jianghuai Army.

Last night, Lin Hu received a secret letter from Chen Yingshi, asking him to instigate troops to respond to Sun Wen's "second revolution". Lin Hu had a good relationship with Chen Yingshi when he was in this book, and he was also a member of the Alliance and a loyal fan of Sun Wen. However, all the middle- and lower-level officers and staff officers of the Jianghuai Army were graduates of the Anqing Army Academy, and Chai Dongliang was the principal. These young officers and staff officers were proud of their status as protégés of the Jianghuai patrol envoys, and in their eyes, Chai Dongliang was a god-like existence. If Lin Hu dared to say to the people below that he wanted to rebel, without waiting for the Military Justice Department to take action, these middle- and lower-level officers would take action to deal with him.

Moreover, the treatment of the Jianghuai Army is very generous, not only the military salary is never in arrears, but also the family members give priority to the distribution of land, the wounded soldiers are supported by the Invalids Farm, and the soldiers of the Gan Army who were mixed into the Jianghuai Army quickly integrated into this group, and are proud to be a member of the Jianghuai Army. Just imagine, how can Lin Hu, the brigade commander, incite the troops to rebel?

After Lin Hu received the secret letter, he didn't dare to slack off, and personally ran to Anqing and handed it over to Chai Dongliang.

After receiving Lin Hu's report, Chai Dongliang almost blew up his lungs, and at the same time began to doubt Sun Wen's IQ, while asking himself to send troops against Yuan, he made small moves around him to dig into the corners. This is simply taking war as a child's play, no wonder the alliance has engaged in more than a dozen uprisings, each time in vain, and at this level, it still intends to confront Duan Qirui's 70,000 army head-on?

Comparatively speaking, Yuan Shikai's methods are more powerful than them, I don't know how many times, Chai Dongliang controlled the Yangtze River waterway, Duan Qirui went to the meeting single-handedly, seized Li Yuanhong's military power in one fell swoop, and controlled his 50,000 troops in the hands of Beiyang, plus the 20,000 who entered Hubei in the early stage, Beiyang had 70,000 troops south of the Yangtze River.

According to Chai Dongliang's analysis, even if the 50,000 people in Hubei do not work, only 20,000 people in Beiyang can sweep away several Kuomintang governors. The Hui Party and the People's Army under their command are pure waste that has the skill to resist the enemy and disturb the people.

"Governor, it's time for you to make a decision!" Gao Chuguan reminded in a low voice.

Gao Chuguan has always admired Chai Dongliang, and whether it is land reform and resettlement of displaced people or training the army to set up industries in Anhui and Jiangxi, Chai Dongliang has done it in an orderly manner. The only thing that made Gao Chuguan very dissatisfied was that his attitude towards Sun Wen and the Kuomintang had always been very ambiguous, neither lukewarm nor far away.

Chai Dongliang understood what Gao Chuguan meant, so he let himself and the Kuomintang completely turn their faces, and used the Jianghuai Army to suppress the rebellion of the governors of the southern provinces, so as to unify the areas south of the Yangtze River in one fell swoop, and form a situation of confrontation between the north and the south with Beiyang.

The method can't be considered bad, but Chai Dongliang has always had a special feeling for Sun Wen for a long time, and he really doesn't want to meet him unless he has to, if it is Yuan Shikai who provokes the dispute, then Chai Dongliang will not hesitate to call on the world to beg for thieves??? But the current thief is Sun Wen!

Yuan Shikai is impeccable in legal theory, he is the provisional president, has the right to appoint and dismiss officials, and state officials, including the prime minister, have already countersigned the order to revoke Hu Hanmin and Tan Yanmin??? I have to say that Lao Yuan is more familiar with the "Provisional Covenant" than Sun Wen.

As the leader of the Kuomintang, Sun Wen can of course think that Lao Yuan is not authentic and gave him the throne of the provisional president, but he crossed the river, demolished the bridge, crossed the wall, pumped the ladder, ate enough, scolded the cook, and beat the monk after reciting the scriptures! However, Yuan Shikai's approach is unreasonable, but it is in line with legal principles!

Sun Wen can scold Yuan Shikai for not being a thing, but he has no power to launch a mutiny, and this time he instigated Lin Hu's rebellion, which made Chai Dongliang completely disappointed in him.

"Transfer the third division to Wuhu, and transfer Lin Hu's first brigade to Ma'anshan, which is only sixty miles away from Nanjing, once the Beiyang Army attacks Nanjing, we must enter Nanjing City first!" Chai Dongliang finally made up his mind.

Although Chai Dongliang knows very well that if he does not move, after Zhang Xun carries out a massacre in Nanjing, he will send troops to take Nanjing in one fell swoop, and he will be regarded as a savior by the people of Nanjing, and he will be able to enhance his prestige. But Chai Dongliang doesn't plan to do this!

In the 100 years from the mid-teens to the mid-twentieth century, Nanjing was almost a city plagued by spells. Within a hundred years, Nanjing experienced four tragic massacres, first after the Hong Yang bandits conquered Nanjing, after Zeng Guoquan's Hunan army destroyed the Taiping army, and then after the second revolution, Zhang Xun's massacre in Nanjing, until the Nanjing Massacre of the Chinese army, which is deeply remembered??? Chai Dongliang could not tolerate the Nanjing Massacre in his memory, whether it came from foreign enemies or from Chinese people!

What makes Chai Dongliang deplore is that the Chinese can share the same hatred for the slaughter of foreign enemies, and remember their hatred for 50 years and 100 years, while the butchers who kill their own people are often called heroes and great men. The practice of treating the butcher as a great man is undoubtedly a hint to more people that they can kill people with peace of mind, and the people will be less able to resist.

After a lapse of 100 years, many people praised Zhang Xun's solitary loyalty, saying that although he was stupid to carry out the restoration, he was loyal and commendable, and he could be regarded as a hero. Almost without exception, these experts and scholars sat on the side of the emperor and general, but no one heard the cries of tens of thousands of unjust souls in Nanjing!

Chai Dongliang secretly made up his mind that in his lifetime, he must nail such heroes and great men to the pillar of shame in history, so that future generations will spurn them for generations to come, and remember the great harm they have caused to the people.

Even if the people are as humble as an ant, they have the right to live, and no one can build the throne on their bones!

Sun Wen, my idol when I was a teenager! I'm finally going to step on you to prove my tallness!

Chai Dongliang's heart had mixed feelings, so that he couldn't figure out whether he was happy or sad, but one thing was certain, that is, it was unprecedented ease, and the shadow that had been pressing on his head for a long time finally dissipated.

Sun Wen made a fatal mistake that ruined his most powerful weapon??? That's a huge prestige that no one can match!

"Let's go, order all the officers above the regimental level of the 2nd and 3rd Divisions of the Jianghuai Army to come to Anqing for a meeting, and let Barnes and the people from the staff department also come over!" Chai Dongliang looked out the window, a smile on his face.

The war room of the Anqing Military Advisory Office was crowded with officers wearing military uniforms, and Lu Kai was holding a slender wooden stick to explain the current situation on the map.

"Feng Guozhang, Lei Zhenchun, Zhang Xun and other troops gathered along the Jinpu Road, intending to attack Jiangsu, the forward Jin Yunpeng's Fifth Division had approached Xuzhou, and on the Kuomintang side, Leng Shu's Third Division marched towards Xuzhou, intending to intercept the Beiyang Army outside Jiangsu Province. In addition, the Eighth Division basically controlled Nanjing, the governor of Jiangsu, Cheng Dequan, was placed under house arrest, and Jiangsu was basically controlled by the Kuomintang. If the Beiyang Army has the advantage, it is estimated that the possibility of surrender is very large, and Lu Rongting, the governor of Guangxi, and Long Jiguang, the patrol commander stationed in northern Guangdong, are both shameless people at both ends of the first rat, so that they can send troops to fight Beiyang is tantamount to a fool's dream, and they can threaten Guangzhou at any time, Hu Hanmin and Chen Jiongming are under the enemy's back, and it is difficult to send troops to support Nanjing??? Duan Qirui Chen Bing on the border of Hunan and Hubei, and Tan Yanmin of Hunan was too busy to take care of himself, and he was unable to support Jiangsu???? Sun Wen ordered He Haiming, Zhang Yaoqing, Han Hui and others to establish an iron-blooded surveillance regiment to monitor the front-line generals at any time. ”

After listening to Lu Kai's introduction, everyone understood a basic fact, that is, the general trend of the Kuomintang has gone, and launching a rebellion this time is tantamount to self-destruction??? Unless Chai Dongliang and Jiang Huaijun are on Sun Wen's side.

However, this kind of possible surname almost does not exist, and at the time when the Republic of China was at peace at the beginning, at the juncture when the whole country was in an uproar to denounce the Kuomintang for brazenly launching a rebellion, it was undoubtedly impossible to get along with himself by doing so. Chai Dongliang is not stupid, and his relationship with Sun Wen is not so iron!

"Commander Tang, you lead the Yangtze River fleet to patrol along the river, and once you receive my order, you will block the Yangtze River waterway and cut off the water ferry on Jinghan Road, so that not a single soldier of the Beiyang Army can cross the river!"

"Yes!"

"Lu Kai, your second division has divided a brigade to keep an eye on Hukou and Madang Fort for me to prevent the Beiyang Army from sneaking up on Jiangxi??? Lin Hu, you led three divisions and one brigade to garrison Ma'anshan, and after receiving my order, immediately seize Nanjing City! ”

"Governor, what if the Beiyang Army clashes with us?" Lin Hu remembered a thorny question: "Then give me a hard beating, let them know whose world is south of the Yangtze River!" Chai Dongliang sneered.
