From the beginning of the period, it is the direction that Zhao Bei focuses on. He didn't want to suffer the "eight blows" of Puyi. Coupled with the strong power of the Hunan constitutionalists, the Fifth Division must be nailed to Yuezhou in northern Hunan Province.

Although the 5th Division was a Type B division, it was specially reinforced with an artillery battalion and had some barreled guns. The firepower is still very strong, and although the combat effectiveness is not as good as that of the first and second divisions, it is still capable of dealing with the local army in Hunan.

However, in the current situation of uncertainty, the best choice for the Fifth Division is to respond to all changes with no change and strike later.

Now it seems that Zhao Bei's original decision was correct, and the constitutionalists in Hunan suddenly jumped out and showed their teeth and claws, but this cannot be blamed entirely on the constitutionalist, and the Communist Party itself must also bear part of the responsibility.

In the "War for the Founding of the People's Republic of China", due to the failure of the battle for Sichuan and the rapid expansion of the army, military spending soared, and taxes were levied on factories and shops, which was only an expedient measure to stabilize the rule. The Communists had to find a new source of money, and after a round of sight, they chose Guangxi and Yunnan, and sent their sharpest troops to these two newly recovered provinces, resulting in the emptiness of the forces left behind in Hunan and Guizhou, which gave the constitutionalists in Hunan and Guizhou an opportunity to take advantage of. Otherwise, it would not have been possible to instigate such a large-scale operation by the armed forces of the constitutionalists alone.

Of course, it is not clear whether Yuan Shikai also played any role here, but judging from the actions of the Jiangxi patrol battalion, it is obvious that the Hunan constitutionalists will not act alone. They had foreign aid, at least the constitutionalists in Guizhou and Jiangxi were in step with them, and although Zhao Beidian ordered Yan Xishan and Li Liejun in northern Jiangxi to take over the Hunan Revolutionary Army, they were one step slower after all. The constitutionalists in these provinces cooperated quite tacitly.

In addition, in this incident, there seems to be the shadow of the French, according to the war report sent back from the front line of Hunan Yīn, in the Hunan army attacking Hunan Yīn a large number of French-made Xia Sibo rifles, although this kind of rifle has been a little out of step with the times, but for the military equipment has always been outdated Hunan army is still very advanced Obviously, France does not want to see Guangxi and Yunnan fall into the hands of the Communist Association.

Ou Zi Xiaoqiang has ended the "Bosnian crisis" in time, and seems to be turning back to the Far East, which should be corrected.

In fact, Zhao Bei also played a role in the Hunan and Guizhou incident, and his role was to add fuel to the fire.

"Since the current situation in Hunan is not very clear. Let's not take a position casually. The Fifth Division should still brake with static to prevent the other side from hiding any tricks. ”

Zhao Bei officially expressed his position, stood up, walked to the military map hanging on the wall, and looked at the small red flags and small black flags planted on the map. The red flag represents the Republican garrison, and the black flag represents the Revolutionary Guard garrison. Now Sichuan has just fallen into control, and many troops are still in Sichuan. Hubei's troops, on the contrary, seem to be a little thin. It seems that some more jīng sharp troops need to be transferred back from Sichuan.

After the commander-in-chief left the table, Pan Kangshi took out a map of Hunan, put it on the conference table, pointed to the map and said: "Although the Hunan army has not conquered Hunan yīn, but the speed of advance is still very fast, at present the forward has approached the Tear Luo River, according to the news from the afternoon, some counties in the south of Yuezhou Prefecture have fallen into the hands of the constitutionalists, if it were not for the commander-in-chief's strict order not to attack, Deputy Commander Wu may have led the army south." ”

"Even if the entire Yuezhou Mansion falls into the hands of the constitutionalists, as long as Yuezhou City is still in our hands, I won't worry. Yuezhou is the gateway to northern Xiang, and if you hold here, you will choke the neck of the Hufu constitutionalists! And it relies on the Yangtze River waterway. It is very convenient to replenish ammunition and food, and you are not afraid of the enemy besieging the city. ”

Zhao Bei raised his hand and pointed at the map. He put his finger on Xiangxi and nodded, and asked, "How are the remnants of the Communist Association in Guizhou now?" Xiangxi is a mountain high and the emperor is far away, the terrain is complex, it has always been a bandit den, and it is a good choice to retreat to Xiangxi. ”

"There has been no news for two days, and after the coup d'état in Guizhou, the constitutionalists in Xiangxi counties have moved stupidly. The telegraph lines along the way were either cut or pushed along with the telephone poles, and the troops of the Communist Association had only two radio stations in total, both on the Yunnan front. The troops in Guizhou could only rely on cable telegraphs, but the telegraph lines were blocked, and there was no news at all, and the last telegram said that they were retreating to Huangzhou in Xiangxi. ”

At this point, Pan Kangshi shook his head helplessly.

"In the opinion of the department, this Hunan and Guizhou changes. I'm afraid it was premeditated, otherwise, it wouldn't have been so closely coordinated. The constitutionalists in the provinces are all breathing out of one nostril. ”

In their opinion, we revolutionaries are unreasonable bandits, who have come to rob them of their money and land, and they used to be afraid of us because there was no one to support them, but now that someone is willing to support them, they will have enough courage and begin to betray the revolution with their teeth and claws. ”

Zhao Bei sighed with his hands behind his back, and the words changed. He also said: "Actually, there is also a precursor to this incident. Some time ago, our smuggling team intercepted a lot of smuggling ships on the Yangtze River, carrying a large number of old French munitions, which we only confiscated for our own use at that time, but now that we think about it carefully, I am afraid that those munitions were only transported to Hunan to support the constitutionalists to launch a coup d'état, and our intelligence collection and analysis methods still cannot keep up with the situation. ”

This is a half-truth, but in fact, there are clues to the changes of the Hunan constitutionalists. Whether it is from a historical point of view or from the analysis of intelligence obtained from reality, the constitutionalists will definitely do it, which Zhao Bei is very sure of, the only thing he does not have to cite is that the ruling foundation of his lecture in Hunan and Guizhou is so weak: the two dogs time will collapse, and it seems that it should be because there are too many constitutionalists mixed in the army.

"The Yangtze River is very strict, and I really don't know how the constitutionalists transported these weapons and ammunition to Hunan." Pan Kangshi frowned.

Zhao Bei glanced at Pan Kangshi, saw that he was at a loss, and knew that he was also in the dark.

"It's not surprising that the smuggling ships we intercepted are all civilian ships and fake foreign ships, and as for the gunboats and foreign ships of those powers, we haven't stopped a single one yet. The smuggling of arms from foreign ships could not be more appropriate. Even if the wind leaks. It can also be interpreted as being transported to the concession. If we want to intercept these foreign ships, we must be prepared to completely tear our faces with the foreign powers. ”

Although Zhao Bei is now actively planning an anti-British cause, if he really wants to ask him to go out and fight with the British, he really has no confidence, even the Germans can't fight the British, what strength does the current Republican Army have to do this? Moreover, anti-British is just a gesture, the purpose is only to make the German emperor happy and deceive some German support, and the current international power comparison is still clear to Zhao Bei.

If you get on a German pirate ship, you must be ready to jump off the pirate ship at any time, and you can't leave a way back.

But then again, in addition to this reason, the reason why Zhao Bei turned a blind eye to the smuggling of arms by the constitutionalists in Hunan and Guizhou was to kill people with a knife.

At the beginning, Zhao Bei was busy secretly traveling to East Lake, avoiding Tan Yanxuan, Liu Xianqian and others. Although they were under the guise of "inspecting the Hubei New Deal," the intelligence department of the Republican Army received information that they were smuggling arms from the Hankou Concession, and Tan Yanfang and Liu Xianqian first loaded the arms onto foreign ships. As for what they wanted to do, although the intelligence department did not dare to make an assertion, they took into account the actions of the constitutionalists in the provinces during the Xinhai Revolution. Zhao Bei could guess what they wanted to do with his toes.

The constitutionalists were not willing to be oppressed by a gang of "bandits", and they were ready to rebel!

It must be admitted that the reason why the CCP is today is completely self-inflicted, if they are not in a hurry to establish their rule in Hunan, if they are not in a hurry to move south into Guangxi and Yunnan, and if they can disarm the patrol battalion at the first opportunity. If they are willing to be the commander-in-chief's pawns, "so many" if, "as long as the Communists pick out any two of them, they will not be defeated, and among these factors, the parting of ways between the Communists and the Commander-in-Chief is the most fatal."

It can be said that if Zhao Bei only reminds the Gongjin Association, this Hunan and Guizhou changes will not happen. At least the Communists will not lose so completely.

However, Zhao Bei decided to sit on the sidelines, because he felt that the existence of the Communist Party had threatened his interests, in order to implement the next strategic vision. The meeting must be dismissed.

On the other hand, with the outbreak of the "Xinzhou Incident", Yuan Shikai may have changed his strategic direction and regarded the Republican Army as the main opponent, so Zhao Bei had to change his previous idea of sitting on the mountain and watching the tiger fight.

As the saying goes, "time is running out".

Now that the founding of the People's Republic of China has ended, the Communist Association has lost its use value, if they choose to fall to the commander-in-chief, they may be able to continue to maintain their rule in Hunan and Guizhou provinces, but they have chosen the alliance, this behavior is a betrayal in the eyes of the commander-in-chief, if there was no full support from the commander-in-chief, how could the Communist Association have the current situation?

Although Zhao Bei supported the Communist Association to go to Hunan to develop in order to distract the Qing court, since the foundation of cooperation between the two sides was very good, why did the Communist Association not want the commander-in-chief to continue to cooperate? Is it just because of the ideals and spirit of Sun Wu and others?

The League must be held accountable for this! If the League had been guided by the commander-in-chief from the very beginning, the revolutionary situation in the south would never have been what it is today, and perhaps Yuan Shikai's Beiyang clique would have been swept out of the stage of history long ago.

It was precisely because of the ignorance of the general situation of the League and even the Liberation Society that the commander-in-chief had no choice but to kill people with a knife and use the power of the constitutionalists to sweep away the power of the Communist Party in Hunan and Guizhou.

Now that the CCP has fallen, although it still retains some of its strength in Yunnan, it is difficult for them to restore their rule over Hunan and Guizhou on their own, and the commander-in-chief's goal has been partially achieved, but the fundamental strategic attempt has not yet been completed.

This fundamental strategic attempt is to take advantage of the Hunan and Guizhou changes to swallow Hunan and Guizhou and realize the strategic concept of the southwest, that is, the so-called "praying mantis catches cicadas, and yellow finches are behind."

The commander-in-chief could not tolerate the Communist Party ruling Hunan, so how could he tolerate the constitutionalists ruling Hunan?

Therefore, the first step of the plan is to borrow a knife to kill people, and the next second step is to cross the river and demolish the bridge.

Moreover, how could the revolutionary forces in the south, which had been wounded by the secret arrows of the constitutionalists, swallow such a breath? They will definitely launch a counterattack, but their own forces are limited and can only unite the commander-in-chief.

Moreover, the republican army is in Hubei, and the fourth "is close to Hunan and Guizhou, and the army is coming from morning to night, and the so-called "thunderbolt" has a republican army, what kind of enemy can't be destroyed?

What do you mean by "what everyone wants"? Here it is.
