Chapter 190: Snatching food in a bowl

When Zhao Bei rushed to the Yamen of the Governor of Sichuan under the escort of the guards, hundreds of people were gathered in front of the main gate of the far gate, and most of them were obviously not officers and soldiers of the Republican Army or the Revolutionary Guards.

The leading cavalry quickly rushed over, shouting and waving horsewhips to disperse those gathered in front of the yamen, and the captain of the guard, Tian Jinfu, was also busy directing the guards to arrange jǐng rings in front of the yamen, and together with the soldiers guarding the yamen, they ensured the safety of the commander-in-chief.

"What are you doing here?"

Tian Jinfu recognized a few familiar faces in the crowd, led by Zhang Peijue, and several around him were Chen Yikui, Zhao Jinshan, Qiu Dechen, and Yang Shizun, who were the five members of the alliance who were rescued by Zhu Daniu's special operations battalion in Tongliang County, and the commander-in-chief also had a relationship with these five people when he inspected Bai Wenwei's troops in Jiangjin City, supported them with a batch of weapons and ammunition, and sent them to Fushun and Ziliujing to instigate the uprising of the Hui Party. When the Republican Army took Chengdu and moved south, the League immediately launched a large-scale uprising in southern Sichuan in response to the Republican Army.

The five of them arrived in southern Sichuan, and when they saw the situation, they felt that they could not hold an uprising alone, and they had to wait for the support of the Republican Army, so they decided to lurk and wait for the Republican Army to capture Chengdu, but due to the "Qizhou Massacre" The commander-in-chief temporarily changed the plan, and as a result, the Republican Army did not act for a long time, Zhang Peijue, Zhao Jinshan and others couldn't wait, plus the news leaked, so they hastily decided to go it alone, and the result can be imagined, their Huidang uprising just ignited the flames, and was suppressed by the Qing army that occupied an absolute advantage, These five members of the League had to embark on the road of escape again, but this time they were lucky, they successfully escaped back to Jiangjin for a long time, and after the Republican Army conquered Sichuan for the second time, these five people remained in Zhang Jiyang's Political Propaganda Committee as revolutionary comrades, specifically responsible for agitating the Sichuan Kuomintang and the Pao Ge organization.

"What else can I do? Denounce Zhao Tu's crimes! Chen Yikui and Zhao Jinshan spoke almost in unison.

"Please ask Chief Tian to tell the commander-in-chief that I want to seek justice from Zhao Erxun and repay the blood debt for those revolutionary aspirants who died under his butcher's knife. In any case, we will never watch an executioner with his hands stained with the blood of martyrs become the 'Senator of the Western Sichuan Governorate' in the republican era! ”

Zhang Peijue's eyes were red, and he presented a letter with both hands.

"This is our petition, if the commander-in-chief does not accept it, we will not leave!"

Tian Jin was slightly stunned for a moment, and said, "What kind of bullshit 'Senator of the Western Sichuan Governor'?" Although Zhao Erxun did mention the surrender condition of the 'Governor of Western Sichuan' when he first sent someone to contact the Republican Army, the commander-in-chief refused at that time, and Zhao Erxun is now surrendering unconditionally, where is his turn to do 'Senate of the Governor of Western Sichuan'? ”

Zhang Peijue is different. Glancing at the ground guard around the corner, which was getting closer and closer. Putting away the letter, he walked up to it. said: "So the commander-in-chief still doesn't know? Just right. I'll go to the commander-in-chief. ”

"Wait!"

Tian Jinfu caught up with a few steps to stop him. said: "Column five." You've been in the IRA for a long time. You should know the reason why the order is forbidden. The commander-in-chief does not say that he can see the ground when he sees it, it is the rule. That's what I'm doing as the captain of the guard. You're standing here. Wait until I report to the commander-in-chief, and see if he can see you. ”

After speaking. Order a few guards to keep an eye on the group, then turn and run towards the Commander-in-Chief's ranks.

A moment later. Zhao Bei rushed to the governor's yamen with his guards. Straight into the concierge. and instructed Tian Jinfu to lead Zhang Peijue and others into the gatehouse.

"Lie five, what the hell is going on with your angry and corrupt appearance? I asked you to rectify the Pao Ge organization in Chengdu, but I didn't ask you to drag them to the governor's yamen to demonstrate. ”

Zhao Bei didn't talk nonsense, and asked directly when they met.

"Commander-in-chief, just now the Chengdu Telegraph Bureau received a telegram with the inscription 'The President of the Republic of China', the content of the telegram is to appoint Zhao Erfeng, the former puppet Qing minister in Tibet, as the 'Governor of Western Sichuan', as for Zhao Erxun, he was also entrusted with the title of 'Senator of the Governor of Western Sichuan' to assist his elder brother in governing western Sichuan, and then all military and civil affairs in western Sichuan will be under the control of this Zhao brother. As for the commander-in-chief, he is now the 'governor of eastern Sichuan', and eastern Sichuan is the commander-in-chief's jurisdiction, and in western Sichuan, we have all become guest troops. The commander-in-chief of this electrification does not know yet? ”

Zhang Peijue half answered, half asked rhetorically, and the petition letter in his hand was also presented.

Zhao Bei took the petition letter, didn't open it, just took the letter and waved his hand, and said: "I only learned about the electricity on the way into the city, and Shiren told me in person." ”

As he spoke, he pointed to Zhang Jiyang, who was standing on the side, and put the petition letter on the Taishi chair behind him.

Yuan Shikai's telegram was sent too suddenly, which caught the commander-in-chief off guard, and he didn't know what to use to fight back.

"Because of this electricity, you gathered a group of people and surrounded the yamen of the governor of Sichuan? Your actions, in the words of the Commander-in-Chief, are called 'disorganized and undisciplined', and are a taboo in the revolutionary army! ”

Zhang Jiyang glanced at a few people angrily, these people are currently his subordinates, and they are acting so recklessly, no wonder he looks like he hates iron but not steel.

Yesterday, Feng Ru and Meng Fei flew the plane into the air without waiting for the commander-in-chief's order, and this matter also has the "credit" of Zhang Peijue and Zhao Jinshan, because the leaflets that were spilled from the plane were printed by several of them, and the day before the operation, Feng Ru and Meng Fei also flew a plane to conduct a drill, although according to the organizational structure, Zhang Peijue and Zhao Jinshan are Zhang Jiyang's direct subordinates, but Zhang Jiyang is not clear about the leaflets from beginning to end.

The commander sent a staff officer to question why the Political Propaganda Commissar had printed the reward leaflet without authorization, and when he learned about the private printing of the leaflet, he immediately fired a fire and severely criticized these revolutionary comrades of the League, clearly telling them that the League's lax discipline was not popular in the Republican Army, and if they wanted to continue to stay in the Republican Army, they must develop a good habit of ordering and prohibiting them!

In fact, the fact that the flying team attacked without permission was far more than just printing leaflets, and the commander of the first division, Bai Wenwei, also played an important role in this matter, without the acquiescence and connivance of the deputy echelon commander, it would be impossible for the flight team to carry out an air attack on Chengdu City, and without Bai Wenwei's nod, it would be impossible for the team to guide the course of the aircraft.

Therefore, Bai Wenwei lost the qualification to lead the troops to hold an entry ceremony in Chengdu, because the commander-in-chief had clear rewards and punishments!

The flying team's attack did make a great contribution to the recovery of Chengdu City, but this was based on the premise that they acted without authorization, which was a manifestation of disobedience to military orders, and it was no wonder that the commander-in-chief kept talking about it.

However, the commander-in-chief is also a reasonable person, and he still needs to be rewarded for his meritorious service, so he and Meng Fei still received a verbal commendation in the end, and as for the medal, I will wait for the next meritorious service.

However, Zhang Jiyang was very annoyed by the disciplinary violations of Zhang Peijue, Zhao Jinshan and others who privately printed leaflets, and the commander-in-chief could turn a blind eye to this matter, but as the top boss of these people, Zhang Jiyang would never lightly expose this matter.

"Five of you, write me a review right away! Last time, I didn't bother with you when I printed leaflets privately, but you were used to making mistakes, and you dared to gather crowds to make a fuss! Don't forget, you're now a soldier! Unorganized, undisciplined, I don't dare to ask for such a soldier! This review is not well written, you guys, just roll up and get out! The Pao Brother team does not pay attention to organizational discipline, so they go to Hi Pao Brother. Zhang Jiyang's face was blue, and he planned to use the topic to play.

"Shiren, let's get rid of the anger first, and now let's talk about the matter of the presidential palace electrification, and we won't talk about it now."

Zhao Bei shook his head as he spoke, of course he understood that Zhang Jiyang was using the topic to play Now is indeed not the time to settle accounts after the autumn, there are more tricky things to deal with, and now you should concentrate your firepower.

"Actually, we can't blame them all for this 'Senate of the Western Sichuan Governor', don't talk about them, even I, a member of the Restoration Society, are now also angry at the appointment telegram, if the Presidential Office sends a telegram and appoints a former Qing official who has slaughtered many revolutionary comrades of the Liberation Society as a military and political official of the Republic of China, can you, a cadre of the Liberation Society, swallow this breath? Although our revolutionaries belong to different organizations, our enemies are all Manchu Dynasty, and for the decadent rule of the **** Manchu Dynasty, how many revolutionaries died on the road of revolution? They have sacrificed for the revolution, and it is no longer possible for them to repay their blood debts, so only those of us who are alive can get justice for them! ”

When the commander-in-chief came, it was not a question of whether Zhao Erxun killed or not, as long as he was not asked to hold power, but now, this telegram sent in the name of the presidential palace was obviously contrary to his plan, even if the people of the alliance did not come to ask for an explanation, he himself would ask Yuan Shikai for an explanation.

Although Zhao Xun was only appointed as the senator of the Governor's Office, this "Governor of Western Sichuan" is Zhao Erfeng, who is Zhao Erfeng? That's Zhao Erxun's brother-in-law! If part of the power in Sichuan falls into the hands of the Zhao brothers, it will be a potential threat to the commander-in-chief's strategic concept of the southwest, so the commander-in-chief must not sit idly by.

"Commander-in-Chief, why don't we send a telegram against this appointment! The commander-in-chief has long been the governor of Sichuan Province elected by the Sichuan Provincial Council, in charge of the military and political affairs of the whole Sichuan, and now the presidential palace has promoted Zhao Erxun, the butcher's brother, Zhao Erfeng, as the 'governor of western Sichuan', and also called Zhao Erxun to be the 'senator of the Western Sichuan Governor', these two people are not only banner people, but also are pseudo-Qing officials, and they have bullied our people before, what is the matter with this appointment, is it that in the eyes of the people in the presidential palace, the public opinion of Sichuan is worthless? ”

Zhang Peijue said angrily, although he did not say it explicitly, everyone could hear that he was very dissatisfied with Yuan Shikai, the interim president who made this personnel appointment.

In fact, speaking of this "Sichuan Governor", so far it has only been elected by the Sichuan Provincial Council, and has not yet been approved by the president, that is to say, the "Sichuan Governor" of Zhaobei is debatable, and now the central government only recognizes the "Hubei Governor".

Now, in the name of the center, the presidential office has officially determined the candidates for the "Governor of Eastern Sichuan" and "Governor of Western Sichuan", that is, the previous title of "Governor of Sichuan" has been cancelled.

"Don't worry, no one knows whether this call is true or not, or you should send a telegram to verify with the presidential palace first."

Having said that, however, this kind of national electricity is not something that can be taken down by hundreds or thousands of oceans, so even if he doesn't send a telegram to verify, Zhao Bei also thinks that this telegram is only afraid that Yuan Shikai ordered it, because it is in the interests of Yuan Shikai and the interests of the United Kingdom.

Moreover, Yuan Shikai's telegram was high-sounding, and the reasons for the establishment of the "Western Sichuan Governor's Office" through the Zhao brothers were also very sufficient, one was to "stabilize people's hearts", and the other was to "demonstrate the sincerity of the republic of the five ethnic groups", and it seems that President Yuan Shikai also began to pay attention to "public opinion".

But no matter how high-sounding the telegram is, it cannot hide the fact that it is snatching food from the job bowl of the commander-in-chief.

It's going down the hill to pick peaches! If it is still worthy of sympathy that the alliance that made great sacrifices in Sichuan will go down the mountain to pick peaches, then it doesn't make sense that the Beiyang group also went down to the mountains to pick peaches in this country of abundance.

Anyone can bear it, but who can't bear it!
